Shed C0mpany.--The defense set up in this

the basis of this action. 1t was on the faith
of it that he parted with his money, rely
ing upon it as his security. 1t is not shown
that any act of his has changed his rela-
tons with defendants. 1t is true that the
sugar was intended to secure q note for
$4,000, payable at sixty days from May IS,
1875, and that at its maturity the note was
not paid, bpt it clear from the evidence, that
in taking Martins two notes of $1,000 each,
payable as it was intended at thirty and sixty
days from the latter part of July, in renew.

on the faith of his security, which as be-

ascertain it's quality, but he seems to have
acted on Martins representations concern

which it was subsequently sold by Martin.
In insuring the sugar from June to Septem-
Der IL. plaintiff indicated disposition not

THE FIREMEN's FEsrIvAL.-Nos 2 and 6
were entirely successful with their picnic
Sunday, indeed, it was ons of the finest
affairs of the kind ever given. The princi-
pal feature was the contest for the cham
pion horns and prize Of 500, the entries
to throw water through LOO feet of hose, to
the best advantage. Unfortunately, only
two companies l and 2-entered.
Volunteer No. started in splendidly with
her jeffrey, and gave a clear stream of 293
feet 2 inches, and No. 2 failed to do any
thing better than 2S3 feet inches. When
this was announced Mr.. John Fitzpatrick,
acting for No. 2, formally presented the
champion horns to No. l. The antiers were
then placed on Volunteers steamer tri-
umphantly. The match race, one nile.
between No. 6 and Pelican No. 4, was won
by the latter with her truck in 5:l9ls. The
mule race caused some fun, and there were
half dozen entries. The favorite was Sam

A New Southern Attraction.

The busy season is near it's close, and our
citizens are coming their summers pro-
granme of pleasure and recreation. The
centennial exposition will draw large num-
bers to the Quaker metropolis, but it is
gratifying to note that more than ever be-
fore is disposition manifested to seek in
Southern resorts that health and enjoyment
which it has been too much the fashion to
purchase at great cost in distant places.
For two or three years this tendency to sup
pert home institutions has been notably on
an increase, with the very natural result
pace with enlarged patronage, until a
elimination has been attained in the cree
ton of the Grand HOTEL" at Point Clear
which leaves even habitual visitors to the
famous caravanseries of Saratoga, Newport
or Longbranch nothing to wish for.
On one of the lovliest sites Of the entire
American coast, where invigorat;ng sea-
breezes mingle with health-giving zepbyrs
from scented pine forests, where drives
and promenades through groves of spread
ing oaks and magnolias WOO Iassitude from
the invalid and the indolent, Messrs. H. c..
Baldwin & Co. have erected hotel unsur-
passed for completeness in all its appoint
ments. Every comfort and convenience OF
first class fashionable watering place can
De had at the Grand Hotel. Its fittings and
arrangements are superb and wholly new.
Its facilities for billiards, ten-pins, beating,
shooting, fishing, driving, ETC., are CON-
plete and under experienced management,
SO that the man Of the world need fear 10
deprivation CT accustomed pleasures; while
superior band will be ever ready at the
call of Terpsichore'sE avotees.
That the capacities of Captain Rsldwin's
magnificent establishment will be thor
cughly tested by the elite of Mobile and
Montgomery society seems already assured,
and we can safely promise full repre-
sentation from the Crescent City during
the glorious Southern summer evenings
now 20 near at hand. Point Clear was
ever popular with our people, and many
pleasant "reminiscences iuger with them
and recall by-gone men aud times. Under
the new regime, with such reasonable
charges as are asked, the old popularity
can not but be increased. The rate for
board is to be only $50 per month, or So 50
per day. Passengers leaving New Orleans
on the morning train arrive at Point Clear
to dinner. The beautiful and fleet steamer
Annie makes daily trips from Mobile to the
point. All letters for further information
should be addressed TO II. C. Baldwin &
Co., proprietors, Point Clear, and promptly,
too, for the formal opening will take place
by the first Of June.
