A GOOD Crop of grass presents itself
to the sight of our citizens, and demands
the attention of the Health Officer. If
he will put his seythemen to work
moving he will improve the looks Of

In this connection we would say, our
narrow streets need looking after, pro-
baby more than our wider ones. A

being able to open their establishment

arrange the largest and most complete
stock of crockery ever offered to the trade

We welcome the new firm to our city,

Providence Church, June IT, go.

Providence Church, June ~, %.
A convention was held at Providence
Church, composed of a conglomerated
mass of ignorance, consisting OF a few
whites and the remainder Blacks
There were about 40 present, Ia big
meeting, supposed to be Republican. J
Speeches were made by Capt. James H.
Plat, candidate for Congress; also j. T..
Wilson, George Cook and Others.
An amusing incident occurred; that OF
an aged Black Republican, marked with
indelible ink, aged about 60, who was
reading music with pair OF coach lights
on, and every once in while would
smile all over his face Others showed
their appreciation of the speeches by
various gestures. W. j. Hodges was
chairman of the jubilee.
After the adjournment of the speeches
convention was held to throw over
board the nomination made June 10th
of A. L. Wordsworth, who it was found
was living in the city Of Portsmouth.
A committee of one from each district
was appointed, to meet at the office OF
w. j. Hodges in Norfolk, there to con-
slider whether A. L. Wordsworth be
retained on the ticket.
After these supposed necessary ar
rangements, the meeting adjourned to
meet at no special time.
The GREATEST WONDER YET We
learn from a source that can't be doub-
ted, however incredulous it may seem,
that man named Pike Mathews of
"The City of Monuments indistinctly
heard, from the top of the Washington
monument, the huge and grandiloquent
chorus of the "Peace Jubilee" in Bos-
ton. Mathews, it is said, from a child
was always remarkable for the sensl-
tiveness and acuteness of his aural Or
gan, but, even those who knew him
best, were astonished at his last and
greatest revelation. lie described what
he heard before the Geographic wires
announced the successful rendition OF
the egregious hub hub, aud his descrip-
ton of the chorus, though family
caught, was subsequently confirmed by
many who were on the spot. Just
think of cannon firing, one hundred
anvils, eleven hundred instruments, and
ten thousand voices, all blending and
swelling in harmony. Why this is
scarcely les, wonderful than the strange
freak of nature, as evinced in Pike
Mathe VS., in catching the sy mmetry Of
faint echos, originating from volume
of music several hundred miles away.
The hub is naturally very iubilant over
the mammoth Jubilee, but Baltimore
has more right even to get tipsy over
the peculiar claims she has upon her
native son Pike Mathews the most sur
prising prodigy of all ages. Pike is rs
years of age. By way of DEPRESSION
we'll Just remark-couldn't he worry
counting couples, whew-pe! and most
anybody else, in few miles OF him
talking about something they wished
kept profoundly secret.
