Rev. j. B. JETER.-This distinguished
divine returned to this city this afternoon
by the northern train, and was met at the
depot by host of admiring friends. His
reception was truly an ovation. DR.. Jeter
has been on mission to Rome in the inter-
est of the Baptist church for several months
past, accompanied by his wife, who also
returned with him. Both are seemingly in
the best of health.

MEMORIAL DAY.-The memorial SER
vices at the National Cemetery will take
place on Friday, the 30th instant, and it is
expected that there will be general turn
out among those who desire to do as much
honor to the Boys in Blueo as is shown
on similar days to the "Boys in Gray"
There will be no specia, programme OF ar
rangemcnt in connection with the ceremo-
ny of decoration, but all persons, "with-
out distinction Of race, color, or previous
condition OF hostilities," will be freely
admitted to the grounds to decorate what
graves they will. The public schools
will not probably be closed
for the occasion, but there will be many in
them who would gladly lay flower on
some unknown grave in sympathy with the
noble and generous spirit Ito say nothing
of the manly and heroic) which led them to
leave happy and loving hearth-stones, and
lay down their lives in UNI ecognized graves.
All persons interested in decorating the
graves of these heroic dead, are cordially
invited to participate in the ceremonies.
Should they be unable to attend in person,
let them send us as many flowers to the Gem
etery, as they can spare, as there will be
those there who will give additional fra
GRANGE to them in the disposition to
which they will be put.

HYMENEAN.-Last night was an occa'
sion of lifelong remembrance to at least
four persons who were in our city, and we
presume similar circumstance will happen
to many who composed the large throng
that gathered at the Second Baptist church
to witness the double marriage ceremony
that was performed by the Rev. DIR. Bit
ting, assisted by Rev. j. r. Garlick. The
happy pairs were Mr.. E. j. Doughty and
Miss Irene V. Burgess and Mr.. E. II.

gentlemen were formally of this city, but
a now engaged in mercantile pursuits in
partnership in Caroline county, whence
they departed last night on the northern
