The grand ball, at the White
Spring, on Thursday night, came off
according to our announcement in
last issue. Lake City furnishes the
largest delegation, and all enjoyed
themselves greatly. Mr.. Flanders,
the hotel proprietor, exerted himself
to have everything for the comfort Of
his guests and from the spirit shown,
we are satisfied that his efforts were
appreciated. The number of dancers
was not so large as had been anticipa-
ted, owing to the threatening weather
Of the morning, but the afternoon and
night were cool and clear. The visit
ors enjoyed the afternoon in bathing
in the fine sulphur spring and stroll
ing over the beautiful surroundings.

Washington, Nov. 2o.-Minister Welsh,
in handing Lord Salisbury the IS, 500, 900
fishery award, handed also a communication
in which, under instructions from Washing.
ton, he stated that the payment was made
because the United States desires to main.
tain the value and good faith of arbitrations
and treaties between nations, and above all
With Great Britain. With this motive, our
government reserves the question Of the OBJ.
legation to pay the amount, although it does
not withhold it. The United States govern.
ment also wishes it understood that the
amount awarded BY the Halifax commission
cannot be understood as furnishing . prece-
dent or fixing the vslne Of benefits accruipg

ment being considered BY her majesty's

T1s Levy.
Though the present efficient Clerk TO the
County Commissioners has not fully posted up
what the rate of County Tax will be the present
year, enough is known, we learn, to justify the
declaration that it will not be over 90 cents in
the 500 and it may not be over 95. This is a
considerable reduction from last years rate
which was 100 cents. The county expenses for
1877 were S3I 1894 and for the present about
S2s, 900, including So, 900 for road DEFICIENCIES Of
last year. 1t is hoped that the present Board
will continue in their system ofretrcnchment and
that the rate in 1879 may be still lower than IL
is now and bring Us backT without injury to the
public interest, TO ante-JsE!Um rates.
