FURTHER REPORT OF Tue ANNUAL MEETING OF THE
MARYLAND ASSOCIATION.

FURTHER REPORT OF Tue ANNUAL MEETING OF THE
MARYLAND ASSOCIATION.
The Maryland Association of tho new Jerusa-
lem Church continued it'd sessions on Saturday.
Very encouraging reports were read from the
Sundiy schools of Maryland Delaware and Vir-
gina, and the distribution of books from the re-
posltofy of the Association showed II 5atlsfacto-
ry increase.
At noon an able sermon was preached by Rev.
Mr.. Sterns, of Cherry street church, Phiiadel-
phia, the Rev. j. W. Hunt being detained at
home. His sermon was based upon the text
found in 9Th chapter OF Revelations and tho I'd
verse: And saw and behold white horse,
and he that sat ON him had bow, and crown
was given unto him, and he went forth con-
querlng and to conquer" The principal line OF
discourse was i'll reference to the mysteries OF
the sealed book which the members of the New
Jerusalem Church believe was opened to man
kind by revelation through Emanuel Sweden
burg.
Tue social meeting in tho evening AT tho res-
ldan3e Of DR.. Negondank was attended by about
seventy-ilve ladies' and gentlemen.
The sermon on Sunday morning was preached
ty Rev. w. G.. Day, of Baltimore from the text
What shall it profit man il he gain tho whole
world and lose his own soul 2"
At Soclock last evening, Rev. Jabez FOX lec-
tired from the passage "And Noah planted q
vineyard, and drank of the wine thereof and
was drunken' The speaker treated Noah as a
type OF the church, reeling and staggering as a
drunken man. This was the principal line OF
thought throughout his discourse.

ANOTHER BALLOT To BE- TAKEN To-NIaHT-NoT
MUCH PROBABILITY OF A CHOICE.
Council meets again, this evening, at ~, fol
another effort to elect Water Engineer. 1t
does not seem probable, however, from present
indications that choice will be made. Assur-
RANGES have boon given, this morning, both by
Messrs Hayes and Farrell that they occupy tht
came positions which thay did at the adjourn
ment on Friday morning, with no intention oi
r,cediug therefrom II they really mean wha
they say no result can be reached to night The
session will not be protracted even II the dead
lock should not be broken as on Thurs lay night
but the present feeling is that an adjournment
will be made at 10 o'clock.
A report was in circulation, this morning, TO
the effect that compromise had been effected
on ali entirely new man, but such report seems
TO be without any foundation IL probably pro
ceeded from the suggestion in the Morning Her.
ald of to-day, proposint that the whole ques
ton be submitted TO outside parties for arbitra
ment Such a course, however. does not meet
the approval of q portion OF the Democratic
members OF Council who insist that they are OF
themselves fully able to settle tho difficulty, and
one gentleman, prominent among the majority
declares that he will not submit to outside in
reference. So the end to the deadlock would
seem to be not yet, neither do the means yet sp-
pear whereby it shall be broken.

THE JUVENILE OPERA COMPANY.


At the Opera House, on Thursday evening,
Mr.. Zimmerman wonderful troupe, the Juyen-
lie Mexican Opera Company, giyo one perfor-
nance. That favorite opera, THE Grand Ouch
ess, will be presented.
The Baltimore Gazette, noticing the perfor-
nance in that city says:
OiIenbacl's opera boufre "La Grande Ouch
csse' was given last night at tho Academy of Mu-
aic before large, brilliant and apprecatiye and
ience by MIR. Zlmmermans Juycnile Opera COM

lions had been reused by the fiittering terms
with which the child artists had been every

by the performance.
There was no strainipg for effect in the part
of the performers, the very perfection or Their
art being found in the arJlessness with which
everything was DONE Tho stately Duchess -

The whole performance was characterized by a
grace and beauty which wis AZ aetonish-

Ui,es lii and other favorte and familiar airs OF
tho opera were enthusiastically epcored. Ihe
gem OF tho evening was the rendition of tho
Carnival OF Venice with variations as composed
for Madame Sontag. This WAS most charmingly
sung by Senorita Soledad linda y Moron. Ihe
audience was reused by her singing to quite a

HOW A VALIANT FEMALE EXPLAINED AN ASSAULT
WHICH MYsrIFIED AN ENTIRE NEIdHBoRHooD.
In Queen Anne's county, at Salem near
Church Hill, the dwelling of Mr.. Benjamin Mere
dith was recently stoned until all the glass in
the windows and portion OF the sash was de-
stroyed. This mode of attack was kept up, night
after night, i'll spite of .he presence of strong
guard, who were unable to discover its source
20 sudden and furious WAS it made. Finally the
belief began to grow that it was the work OF
disembodIed spirits, and just ~ the neighbor-
hood was settling down into this conviction the
well directed aim with IA shot gun, by female
who had been left alone, when tho regular as
sault was made, opened the eyes OF the COM
murity to the real cause. Mr.. Meredith's son
had whipped colored boy while at work upon
the farm, and the latter's friends had sought
revenge in this way, taking advantage of the
low. hanging apple boughs to creep near tho
house and under their cover to pelt it with
stones. The attacks have now ceased. and the
good people OF Queen Anne's will hand down to
their posterity one less superstitious tradition.

The Potato GrOps

nIdH PRICES AND SCARCITY OF HOME 20
TAroEs-sHIPMENT Ts FROM The wEsT TO THIS
CITY.
After all the favorable prospects for large
yield OF potatoes In Delaware and New jersey
the crop has fallen short Of tho anticipated re-
suits, and prices rule high in consequence. The
home crop ia deficient, not 40 much from the
tavages of the potato beetle, az from a rednc-
ton OF the acreage planted. This appears to be
the case both i'll Upper Delaware and in the ad
joining section Of New Jersey on the east edo
OF tho river. Potatoes brought into the
market in large wagons have been
sold to bouse-keepers and middlemen at II 90
rhd II 10 per bushel leaving the margin OF pro-
Ut very small for the latter class OF persons, UNI
less exorbltant prices were charged by them.
The crop, however, in the West appears to be
heavy one, the beetle not being 30 destructive
and large acreage having been planted.
William Kirby, in the Eighth Street Market,
Mud one of our leading vegetable dealers, has
Tor some days past had potatoes shipped to him
from 0riana, near Decatur, Illinois, Already
'9nr carloads have arrived containing 1890 bush
els which he sells at the car for Us cents bush

tho Early Rose variety, and OF good eize. Other
