OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
Baltimore Letter.

Concerts and Hnps-H. N. s. Bur-
lesque-Ahce Oates-The Wrestling
Match.
Especial correspondence to the JOURNAL.
BALTIMORE, March Is, 1879.
The last of the series of the Fifth
Regiment Promenade Concerts and
Hops took place last night at the
Armory and was the occasion Of
grand ovation and reception to Gen.
Robert Patterson, of Philadelphia.
This old warrior is lightweight years
of age, and served in the wars of
1872 lS46-48, and 1861, and when
Gen. Herbert of the regiment called
upon the men to give three old-fash-
Toned Maryland cheers for the aged
veteran, they responded with a will
and the Hip, hip-Hurrah Hur-
rah Hurrah !" made the very rafters
ring. After the visitor had inspected
the soldiers and drill had been Civ
en- for his benefit, he was entertained
by banquet at the Armory, and
afterwards a serenade at his hotel.
The Concerts and Hops given by
the Regiment this season have been
very successful and serve to keep up
the interest of the men in great
degree, besides being very enjoyable
to the visitors.
The Carncrogs Minstrels are at
Ford's this week convulsing with
laughter all who attend by the bur-
lesque on Her Majestys Ship Pima
fore which is itself burlesque Of the
richest sort. The H. M. s. of the
Minstrels stands for Henry Moses
Shadboat, and in the representation
all the crew seemed worthy to belong
to Just such a vessel. The acting
throughout the whole perform ance is
excellent, the voices exceedingly good
and everything is conducted with
refined elegance that seems to elevate
the burnt cork artists t. plane in
their profession rarely reached by
minstrel men.
At the Holiday Street Theatre
Alice Oates commenced a weeks en-
eagement on Monday with her excel
lent comic opera troupe. Her recep-
ton before the footlights was cold
enough to freeze even the genial heart
Of an Alice Oates, but she took the
apathy of the audience in good part
and by her gay humor and sprightli-
less scou won their favor and ap-
plause. She has gotten Euch stouter
since her sojourn in the west and is
quite improved in appearance thereby
Her company is an exceedingly good
one both in voice and acting, and al
though the chorus is not large it is
very effective. Mrs. Oates vice is
in no way impaired and her bright
songs and lively manners bid fair to
render the comic opera season as
popular as usual.
The wrestling match to take place
at the Academy between Miller and
McLaug hlin has taken pattern after
the late walking matchin New York,
and fixed the price Of admission at
one dollar, and twenty-five cents OK
ira for a res, rived seat. This will
hardly take as well IN Baltimore rs it
did in New York, as it is very unusual
that any amusement except the opera
is of higher price than tie theatre.

a PRETTY MIDDLE AND A FUNNY
SEQUEL.-Several weeks ago We
published some remarks upon the
practice OF certain coal companies
outside this region appropriating the
title Of "Cumberland' 10 define TIER
coal. We Sentured to say in sub
stance that it was quite bad enough
that the term, "Cumbarland," Should
itself be fragrant misnomer, and, as
"every worse has it's worst" it is evil
dent that its adoption by parties less
entitled to it must be still more intol-
cradle.
To this the mberland Neaos maze
fippant reply, which was promptly
and effectually disposed of.
But the Meyersdale Commercial
last week published our first remarks,
denominating them" coal fraud YELL"
This was followed by the Ne,os' reply,
which the Ccmmerctcl very APPROX
ingly styles Sensible 1.-TWO broth
ers in one cause" you know. Next
the Commercial publishes as "the
pith of the matter" the following
every truthful comment from the
Coal Trade Journal:
Certain local p pers affect to despise the
trade as whole, and open their columns
to personalities What possible harm can
accrue from the selection of a partica lar
name for coal9 II is the quality that tells
sotth consumers, and the good name that
one coal from any region makes in market

IT is to be regretted that the FROST
BURG JOURNAL, and the Meyersdale Com
merctai have so little fuel on hand in the
regions they respectively represent, that
they quarrel about the merits of anything
in the opposing district.-Coal Trade
Journal.
Our esteemed contemporary should
have included the Cumberland News,
the trouble with whom and the Com
nsercial is-they quarrel about fuel
that neither represents. For instance,
there is no Cumberland coal in the
Meyersdale region, and, in fact, there
is really no such locality as the Gum
berland coal region" "Cumberland"
is nick name for Frostburg and
Georges Greek coal. Nick names are
always bogus, and bogus materials of
any sort are rarely appropriated ex-
cept by people peculiarly hard up.

A WORLDWIDE REPUTATIoN.-Dr.
R. V. Pierce, having acquired a repu-
tation in the treatment of Chronic Dis
eases resulting in a professional bust
ness far exceeding his individual
ability to conduct, some years ago in
duced several medical gentlemen to
associate themselves with him, as the
Faculty of the Worlds Dispensary,
the Consulting Department of which
has since been merged with the In
valids' Hotel. The organization has
now been completed and incorpor-
ated under statute enacted by the
Legislature of the State of New York,
under the name and style of the
Worlds Dispensary Medical Associ-
alton
A branch of the "World's Dispensary
Medical Association is to be established
in London, England, a step which the'con-
tinually increasing European business of
the dispensary has been found to warrant
and next week Dr. B. T. Bedortha will
sail for the great metropolis named, to SUI
perintend the organization OF the new in
stitution. This gentleman has been for
some four years associated with DR.. Pierce
in position of responsibility, and Is well
qualified for the duty now entrusted to him
Heretofore the foreign business of the
Worlds Dispensary has been transacted
through the agency of prominent drug
gsts, but it has assumed such proportions
as to require more direct care. DR.. Be
DoRTHA will no doubt successfully carry
out his mission, being gentleman of ex-
cellent business abilities and most pleasing

IF it is within the power of the
Mayor and Council to make Frost
burg too hot to hold tramps, they
could do nothing else which would be
more gratefully appreciated by the
people. Last Sunday week small
party OF gentlemen were seated in one
of our dwellings, talking over matters
secular and religious when an inner
door opened and an unwashed, I'M
combed resident OF Canada" appeared
and asked for a job. He was an ex-
ceedinely affable man, especially in
accepting courtesies which were not
rendered. Like Poe's Raven" he
was irrepressible and disposed to make
his presence felt and acknowledged.
The situation was embarrassing to all
except Sir Tramp though he was f.
nally disposed of in the gentlest man
ner consonant with his lofty notions CT
"true hospitality Like the impostor
in the "Vicar of Wakefield" whose
lecture upon the "cosmogony," etc.,
everywhere inspired the profoundest
reverence for his oracular ability,
this tramp enunciated theories of
hospitality" that filled US with awe.
He had studied the subject from Dan
to Beersheba, and tested it in all
known longitudes and ATTITUDES of
the occidental hemisphere. A lesson
was learned that will never lie forgot
ten, and and that is, our nomadic gem
try ought to DO suppressed. Just how
we have 1ot had time TO decide.
Hence, the whole subject is referred
to the "Comn;ttee en- Ways and
Means" i'll our esteemed municipal
Legislature, with tie sine re hope that
whatever can be done, if anything,
will be done quickly, We arc in IA
vor of some lloodless declaration Of

mutually safe distance, and OF enforc-
