ENTERTAINMENTS TO THE COUNCIL
During the recent session Of the Episcopal
Council in this city, two handsome enter
tainments were given for the especial benefit
of the delegates.
The first was at the Virginia Female Insti-
tute on Friday night, where one of those
elegant soirees for which the school is noted,
consisting of music, calisthenics, &c., was
given. Tie chapel was crowded, and the
strangers, as well as the citlzens, were de-
lighted.
The second was at the D., D. & B. Instis
tuition on Saturday night. In addition to
most excellent music, there was an exhibit
ton of the process of instructing the deaf
and dumb and the blind, which to many OF
the spectators was entirely novel, and to all
was especially enjoyable.

DECORATION DAY.-Wednesda next, the

The ceremony will be observed throughout
the United States, and it is the purpose, we
understand, to strew flowers and evergreens
over the last resting place of the Union SOL
diers buried in the National Cemetery at
this place. It would be fitting occasion
for the manifestation of that friendly feeling
between the sections that has recently grown
so much, for our citizens generally to parti-
cipate in the observance.

ty of Dinwiddie with Stuart, Buchanan &
Co. for furnishing salt to the people of that
County during the late war, was lawful

FIRE EsCAPE.-Mr. Geo. W. Eyler, of
this place, has invented a Fire Escape, which
promises to be success. He has deposited
his model in Washington, and tae opinion
expressed at the Patent Office was that it
combines more advantages than any model
yet presented. Mr.. Eyler gave it trial on
the Brooks building last week, descending
from the third story, at slow rate, to show
the perfect control the person using it would
have over its motion. The descent of hun
dred feet can be made, with perfect safety,
within from three to five minutes. There
are some improvements to be made, which
Mr.. Eyler has entered with his model.
