UNroEruNAu-Thc man who uufortu-
natcly dumped his load of hay ON JefIer-
son street. To fork over a load of hay
this warm weather is no small job, and we

sS- The mulattoes, octoroons and ne
grocs occupy so many places in Richmond
that white boy who sought a place AS
waiter could find no vacancy whatever, and

FoURrH OF JULY.--Aside from the eXcur-
sion to the Lakes, and the Sharpshooters
Picnic, to come OF on the Fourth, we hear
ofuo other arrangements for commemo-
ration Of that day. Wen, perhaps It's as
well. All the rights, privileges, and insti-

that celebration Of the anniversary of
the day itself should be suspended Z

his arm, and his plug hat" planted upon
one side of his woolly caput, and, with all

down In impressive language, with sgniA-
cant gestures, the law of his household to
the female gender walking at his side, re-
latiye to a gal Of the same colored pcrsua-
sion who had for some time been kind Of
hanging round without doing any work,
except with knife and fork when at table,
and pork aud beans" were to be disposed
of. said Sambo:

Luce, dat dat gal can do most anything
she's mind to put her hand to. She can
wash, an iron, an scrub, u'-au'--an'-I
tell you she's got to do suflin, she has. !"
~ knows dat, knows dat, Sam''-and we
lost the balance Of Luce's reply in the dis
tancc. But tive had heard enough to satisfy
MS that there was something wrong in
Africa, and that great necessity for re

As there is no Bureau agent here, the
