The Gift Concert OF the Masonic Re
lief Association Of Norfolk, POST
pOncd.

Our readers will see from an advcr-
tiscment in another column that tn"
Grand Gift Concert, which was to have
been given by the Masonic Relief Asso-
citation of Norfolk, Va, on the Sd of
September, has been postponed until
Thursday, the 10Th of November.
As the Directors remark in their
Card, there are many persons who de-
sire and intend to invest in this
enterprise, but have been deferred from
80 doing by the belief that postpone
ment would take place, and they w"r"
unwilling to purchase tickets until they
felt assured that day had been fixed
when the drawing would positively
take place. In consequence of this
impression. the sale of ticket
while largely in excess Of the
number sold previous to the postpone
ment of the first Gift Concert given by
the As,ociation-has not been to such an
extent ~ to enable the Directors 10 make
n satisfactory distribution Of prizes or to
accomplish tn" object of the Concert
proposed To De- given. 1t is therefore the
interest oil all concerned that the draw
ing be deferred until the day designated
in the announcement; and we doubt not
that the action of the Directors will meet
with the hearty approval Oftheir patrons,
and that the result will prove satisfac-
tory TO them.
THE LAST GRAND GIFT CONCERT IN AID
OF THE MASONIC RELIEF ASSOCIATIONS
OF NORFOLK POsTPONED-TO THE
THE PUBLIC.
In selecting the Sd day of September
as the date upon which to have their last
Gift Concert, the Directors of the Ma
sonic Relief Association were Influenced
by the belief that there would be- a sutii-
Gent length of time between the publica-
ton Of the scheme and the aboye-m"n-
toned date 10 enable them 20 dispose uf
such "A NUMBER Of tickets rs to ensure
full drawing and an avoidance of scaling
the prizes. While the enterprise las
been literally patronized by a larg" num-
Der Of purchasers Of tickets in every SEQ
ton Of the United State and the British
Provinces. yet tn" impression seem, 10
have prevailed with many who were
willing Ia aid in the work Of completing
the Masonic Tempe" IN this "ltN,
by investing IN this scheme,
that the Concert would be postponed, aud
a. consequence they have declined To
purchase ticket. until al announcement
should be made that day bad been fixed
upon when the drawing would positively
take place. The directors. being assured
that their patrons will b. satisfied with
the reasons actuating them in making a
postponemcnt, have selected THURSDAY.
the 18th day Of November, az the time to
hold their Second Grand Gift Concert
and Drawing, and they hope that orders
for tickets will be sent Immediately by
all who desire TO obtain one or more Of
the valuable cash prizes which they offer.
The public may be confident that the
sam" fairness which characterized their
first drawing will be observed in this.

Thursday, September s, 1874.
The state of the grain market is very
dull. prices continuing their downward
tendency and little demand. Some
wheat at these low figures is being sold
as evidenced from the fact that the Pa
cic Mills is buying about 500 bushels
day, and other mills probably the same.
1t is predicted that prices have now
reached their bottom, and must shortly
have an upward tendency. 1t Is
stated on good authority, that Wheat is
now selling FOR what it brought in gold
in 1860.

SUBSTITUTE FOR HANGING BASKETS.
"A hanging garden of sponge is one of
the latest novelties in gardening. Take
a white sponge Of large size and SOW it
full of rice, oats or wheat; then place it
for week or ten days in a shallow dish
in which a little water is constantly kept,
and as the sponge will absorb the mos
ture the seeds will begin to sprout before
many days. When this has fairly taken
place the sponge may be suspended by
means of cords from hook in the win
cow where the sun will enter. 1t will
thus become mass Of green, and can be
kept wet by merely immersing in bowl
Of water. .'4..

THE REPUBLICAN CoSvESTIoN.-Th
theme ofconversation last evening around
the corners and principal hotels, was the
Republican Congressional Convention
which assemblies at the Opera House this
morning at 10 clock, for the purpose OF
nominating a candidate for Congress
from this district. The attendance OF
delegates will be large, quite a
number having arrived last night,
probably three or four hundred
strangers will be in the city. The ques-
ton as to who will be nominated is
rather mixed, as nearly every county has
a candidate, and the delegates have been
instructed accordingly. The impression
prevails, however, that General Golf, of
Clarksburg, will be the unfortunate man.
1t is understood he will get the greater
part of the vote from this
county, the balance of which will
90 to ex-senator Scott, of Richie, who
will show considerable strength i'll the
Convention. The effort to unite on Hon.
Daniel Lamb, of this city, will not be
successful, is generally conceded, though
we cant sometimes generally always
tell just what political convention
will do. The Wood and Peasants coun-
ty delegations will back Judge LOOMS
of Parkersburg strongly but from present
appearances, his chances are slim. Our
old friend, Capt. Hanson Cri'wcll, OF
Marshall, will loom up in the back
ground, to say nothing Of Rev. Mr.. Pome-
roy of Hancock and numerous other as
pirants. But there is no telling what Il
day will bring forth, so we will wait and
'sce what we will see

MUNICIPAL CoJRT.-The Court met at
the usual hour this morning, Judge
Cranmer presiding.
The attention of the Court was occu-
pied by the case of Margaret Mas RS.
the Germania Life Insurance Company.
This is an action brought to recover the
sum of $500 on policy of insurance on
the life of David Mas who died June
II, 1874, it is alleged, by suicide. The
policy contains Il provision that if the
insured should die by Suicide,o in conse-
qucncc of an attempt to commit suicide,
the policy should Dc void. Under this it
is incumbent on the defendant to prove
that the insured did commit suicide. If
this be proven, it then dcvolvcs on the
plaintiff to show that when the act was
committed the suicide was laboring UNI
sanity, and the law will then hold that
he was not responsible for his acts, and
the contract. of insurance will still be
binding.
The evidence was all in when the
Court adjourned until this morning at
o. o'clock.
