Thursday afternoon John c. Man.
ney was tried for selling liquor, and the
verdict of the jury was that he was
guilty of six ofienses. II being the
third conviction, he was sentenced to
three months imprisonment in the
county Jail, and TO pay fine of Sl2O
and costs of prosecution, and to stand
committed until sentence is complied
with. Respondent appealed. 1t ap-
peared that all the offenses proved were
committed more than two wears ago,
since which time he has been twice be-
fore fined, and it being undisputed that
he has long since quit the business,
many think the case Ought not TO have
been taken up.
The Middlebury Congregational
church and society held a meeting nj
the lecture room, Tuesday afternoon, TO
consider measures for meeting their
ANNUAL expenses, WIN the nope or ind
ing some method which should be
more effective and satisfactory than auy
hitherto in use. Hon. l.. ID. Eldredge
was elected chairman. Remarks were
made by Ex-Governor Stewart and
others, and resolution was finally
adopted without dissent, proposing the
surrender of slips in the meeting house
by the owners to the use of the society,
for specified term, and that the slips
when so obtained by the society be let
at an annual rental sufficient to meet
the total expenses of the society. All
present apparently acquiesced in the
plan and since then the slip owners
have quite generally signed an agree
ment 10 lease. II is thought that
nearly all will come into the arrange
ment.

culations made by Colonel TbomasJ. Evans,

above published These calculations were
reviewed by the subcommittee 81. b. Big
ger, DR.. J. s. Wexford. q. W. Pickrell, e.

and found accurate in every respect. The
plan required that the distribution should
he made by wards. Had it been made for
the city as whole, as was once proposed
in the City Committee, Colonel Holiday
would have been entitled to one more dele
gate and General Malone to one less. -
Each candidate-that is, the friends act
ing for him-will naturally select as dele
gates his ablest and NEST influential sup
porters in the wards to he represented. The
result, it is expected, will be that Richmond
will have u delegation Of which she may well
be proud.

AN IMPRovEMENT.-The Superintendent
of the Weter-Works yesterday erected a
splendid new hydrant in place OF the di-
lapidated concern at the corner Of Twelfth
and Franklin streets Capitol ,. Square},
which, il allowed to remain by the meddles
some, destructive people who have hereto
fore ruined every hydrant that has been
put there, will prove great source OF en-
ioyment and comfort to people during the
heated term. The water from that spring
has been analysed by DR.. Taylor, and he
pronounced it tirst-rate. 1t contains valua.
Bile medicinal properties OF them mag.
nesia-and the; spring ought to be pre-
served. Two neat tin-cups, anchored with
stout chains, have been attached to the new
apparatus, and unless they were taken
away last night they will probably be al.
lowed to remain through to-day. 1t is to
be hoped that the petty thieves will let this
public fountain alone.

have undoubtedly performed more cures Of COLI

American public. They are compounded OF vegeta-
BILE ingredients, and contain nothing which can be
injurious to the human constitution. Oiher remedies
advertised as cures for Consumption probably con-
tain opium. which Is somewhat dangerous drug In
all cases. and II taken eely By consumptye patients
1t must do great injury tendency is to conne
the morbid matter in the SYSTEM which, Of course,
must make cure impossible. .scuENcK's Pull
MoNrC SYHUP iswarranted not to contain particle
OF opium; ir Is composed OF powerful but harmless
herbs, which act on the lungs, liver, stomach, and

are the only means by which consumption can be
cured; and rs scHKscK's PULMoNIc SYRUP, sea-

THE LATE EXCURSION OF CENTENARY
CHURCH. TO OLD PoINT AND THE CApEs.-The
ladies of Centenary church met with great
success in their excursion down James
river on Thursday. The party numbered
about three hundred. About one hundred OF
the party returned yesterday sohighly, de:
lighted with the trip that second excursion
on the oath of July is pretty well determined
on. Thursday:night, owing to the misty state
OF the atmosphere and an easterly wind,
the steamer did not go fully out to. the
Capes. In the July excursion it Is proposed
to go straight out to the ocean, after stop
ding ut the Point, and before going to Nor
folk. This would save thirty miles travel
fHrom the Point to and from NorfoIk) and
give the excursionist an opportunity OF
feeling Whatit Is to be out upon the 9 Ht.great
heaYing sea. !" Years ago, at some expense,
d party OF Richmonders secured this new
emotion. - Great thoughts and feelings are
worth something. BY the way, at Lower:
Brandon wharf a flag bearing the name, OF
the landing upon it was displayed yester-
tiay. This Is an Improvement. The exam.
Die OF Brandon will no doubt. be followed; !;
and il not flag a.small board viii be ex-
