charge Of the stone work, is having some very
fine cutting and dressing done. that will show to
good advantage IS the walls are going up. The

in securing additional appropriations last month,

Magnificent Gift.

In view of the speedy approach of the COM
pletion of the Alabama and Chattanooga Rail-
road, the officers and employees of the road.
some months ago, determined to make present
to j. G. Stanton, the General Superintendent,
to whose indefatigable energy and untiring zeal
is due the unparalleled speed with which the
road has been completed.
The Times, of Chattanooga, gives q full de-
scription Of the articles and the addresses made
on the occasion. A service Of plate was resolved
upon as the fttest testimonial and Friday the
magnificent gift was received and was presented
to Mr. Stanton at his Office last night, immedi-
ately upon his arrival from Tuscaloosa, where
he has been for the last two weeks, hurrying up
the work. There were two seryices-a tea and
breakfast service-consisting of a coffee urn, tea
and water pots, sugar bowl, creamer and slop
bowl, and dinner service complete. Each SER
vice was enclosed in a chest of walnut, with
birdseye maple panels, silver mounted and lined
with blue satin The moulding, chasing and
engraving are superb, and the two services are
the most costly and elegant ever made in Anleri-
ca, with one exception-the cost being $1,000.
They are from the we'll known house of Ball,
Black & Co., New York.

The concert last night for the benefit of tht
Welsh Congregational Church, was better at
tended than on the night previous. though no.
as well as its merits deserved. Each one con.
cerned performed his or her part well Every
performance was greeted with rapturous ap-
plause The 'scatch" songs were especially
popular with the audience, each oHe of them be
iEg greeted with an encore. The political catch
was an apt illustration Of "a Inc pair Of fools,
who, disagrssing on political question, were
denouncing each other as thieves, etc.
We regret that the efforts Of those concerned,
for 80 laudable an object. were not more liber-
ally encouraged. It is not crsditabls to our
people, that entertainments less meritorious and
no benefit to the town are far better pstronized
A slight-of-hand show or sons travelling hum
