A RICH ENTERTAINMENT IN PROS.

pEcT.-A grand vocal and instrumen-
tai Concert, for the benefit of the nj
E. Church, South, is announced to be
held at Odd Fellows Opera House,
Tuesday evening, May goth, 1879.
The affair is under the management
of several trained musicians, and a
programme of unusual attractions ls
offered. We understand also that the
best amateur talent of the city, COM
prising fifteen voices, will take part.
Our popular druggist, A. G. Sturgiss'
ESQ, now uses Limousins process for COM
pounding medicinal powders. Get sick,
send for your doctor, let him prescribe for
you, and try the new French method OF
taking powders in the cachets medican'en-
teur. This advertisement is gratis-Gar-
rett County Herald.
By the living Hiram, that 9 cheap !
'Limousins,' "cochet' and "maedsca-
menteur," should have been charged
for at might rates any how.
OUR Cumberland readers will be
interested in "Scalpel's" letter this
week. He is acapable, strong writer,
as will be seen when he gets we'll to
work. We expect 10 hear from him
weekly, and predict that in genteel
way some men and measures will oc-
casionally have the bark scaped off in
vulnerable spots. Moreover, it will
be hard to find ont who he is.
ERRoR-In the item last week
which credited Mr.. Thomas Fl. Pau
with the gift of large Newfoundland
dog to Hon. A. K. Syster, of Hage1s-
town, We should have printed the
name of Mr.. Thomas G. Porter instead
of Mr.. Pauls. The mistake was, as
brother Tasker would have it, lapsus
l,.gatae on the part of our informant.
WE have inst received from Phila-
lphia the May metropolitan"
Fashions, which contains an ur
usually large number of very stylish
patterns, a copy of which will be
mailed gratis to any lady reader of
the JOURNAL who may send her adj
dress to J. G. Ramsdell, 1ll3 Chest
nut St., Philadelphia
OUR Baltimore correspondent en-
Joins the people of Frostburg to hear
Mr.. Moody if he visits Cumberland.
If theatre-goers can afford special
trains, certainly Christian people can
to see and hear a celebrity like Mr.
Moody. We, too, say, go, unless he
can be persuaded to spend o day Or
two in Frostburg.
CHURCH DEDIoATIoN.-Bishop J. j.
Glossbrenner will dedicate a new
church for the United Brethren in
Christ, located near Grantsvllle, Gar
rett county, Md, on the 4th of May
next. The Bishop has always enjoyed
the reputation of being one of the
most eloquent ministers of that de-
nomination.
FISHERMAN LUoK.-Tuesday last
Enoch elise, ESQ, went to the upper
waters of Savage river and caught
about twenty fine trout. Mr.. G. is
one of our most expert anglers, hence,
this Is regarded as a small catch,
though it may be large one Tor a
well-fshed stream.
AN OwLIsH PERFORMANCE
Brother Tasker has become enthused,
orthographically. He says, G. ia Sir
Joseph Porter, X. G. B., Officially
strir fammea, not strau fammaae, is
correct. This is quite find" for
| brother Tasker, especially if he was
" himself.
q, TEE and whoa are Garrett county
Latin words which mean 'go to the
oif-side b nd stop" In other sections
of the cou, ,try this lingo is translated
bv horses AM. oxen to mean ethlng
slightly difere. 1T. But brother Taskel
knows thing or two, too.
A VENERABLE + EDEsTR1AN.-An-
drew vogtman, Esq, If this place, Is
years old, walked fifteen miles "eu-
nesday last. Half the dl, s1ance was
upgrade, but the old gentl> sman iel'
no worse for the wear and tear o. Ills
trip.
PERsoNAL.-Capt. Nelson Beall a oo
Enoch Winter, Esq, left for Texas
Saturday last on business tour.
Olin Beall, Esq. started Wednes-
day for Charlestown, W. Va, on
