THE OLIvET CONCERT.
An Excellent Musical and LifePas
ry Entertainment Last Evening.


The concert which was given at the
0livet Presbyterian Church, last even.
ing, was not for the liquidation of a
supposed debt upon the lecture room
which has but recently been erected,
Chat part of the church edifice being
entirely free Of such incumbrance) but
for the payment Of q debt which will BE-
due for carpeting and frescoing the
main audience room and making some
changes in the construction Of the pull
|Pit.
The church upon this occasion was
crowded. In recess at the rear Of the
rostrum were many flowers: Mr.. J, M.
Hammond presided and Miss Matte
Piokels was pianist. A choir sung
"Nearer Home" and was followed by a
solo and chorus called "Days that are
gone seem the brightest
Charles Carpenter nicely read
Clancy under the rod" The choir
next sung "Ths Laugh Of child" A
defamation entitled ''Shamus O'Brien''
by MIR. Naylor was loudly applauded
Mrs. Thomas X. Porter sang ''Hear us
0 Father" and was followed by a sole
and chorus entitled "When shall l be
Free"
Miss Maggie Carpenter read an essay
on "Friendship." beautiful song o.
the Spring" was q we'll rendered sole
and chorus. Miss Beeson nicely read
"The Wreck" "May / Pray" which
was read by Prof. James Il. Crabb, was
loudly encored. A solo and chorus en-.
titled enable Darling, how l miss
Thee," was nicely sung.
Miss Maggie Carpenter recited
"Mother and Poet" sour Bark upor
the Stream" was beautifully rendered
by the choir. "a Simple Story O
George Washington" which was read
by Prof. James H. Crabb, was greeted
with peals of laughter. Mr.. and Miss
Naylor rendered comic duett.
"Let as call back the Time" was
nicely sung by Eva Nsylor and Laura

cited by Prof. Crabb. The exercises
were concluded by the choir singing
"Chiming Bells"

The question of election supervisors
recently provoked an interesting run
ming debate in the Senate between Mr..
Hoar, Of Massachusetts, and Mr.. Hamp-
ton, Of South Carolina, in which the lat
ter quoted certain disparaging remarks
made by Washington against Massa-
chUsetts troops shortly after the battle
Of Bunker Hill, and rather worsted Mr..
Hoar on that point. IL would seem,
from these quotations, that General
Washington at that time had no exalted
opinion Of the officers commanding the
Massachusetts troops, as he character
lied them as the most Indifferent kind
OF people he had ever seen, and stated be
had broken quite a number Of the colo
hels and captains for cowardice, etc.
The men, he said, might fight If prop
erly o1icered, although they were ex-
eeedingly dirty and nasty people. Mr..
Hoar naturally, Of course, endeavored to
parry the force Of these unsavory alle-
cations, but failed, aud then asked TO
have further discussion OF the subject
dropped. Mr.. Webster turned Mr..
Haynes flank when he attacked Massa-
chusetts, but Mr.. Hamptonis blows
were not returned, owing, We presume,
to the fact that Mr.. Webster's sword is
not worn by as able a champion as he.
South Carolina bore of the spoils 10 this
contest

THE OLD OAkEN BUCKET.


A sArIRE BY A "sANITARIAS."
With what anguish OF mind remember my
childhood,
Recalled in the light Of knowledge since
gained;
The malarious farm, the wet, fungus-grown
wildwood,
The chins then contracted that since have
remained;
The scum-covered duck pond, the pig-siye
close byit,
The ditch where the sour-smelling house
drainage fell;
The damp, shaded dwelling, The foul barn-yard
nigh It.
But worse than all else was that terrible well; f;
And the old oaken bucket, the mold-crusted
bucket,
The moss-covered bucket that hung in the
well.
Just think eft, Moss on the bucket that iifted

And often al noon, when went there 10 drink

How ardent I seized It with hands that were

And quick 10 the mud-covered bottom it fell;
Then soon with Its nitrates and nitrites' and

With matter organic, 70 rose from the well.
OH had I but realized, IN time to avoid them,

How little knew OF the dread typhoid fever
Which lurked IN the water l veptured 10

But since I've become a devoted believer
In the teachings OF science, shudder q

AN ELOQUENT NEGRO.-A colored
man pleaded his own case with marked
success in Dallas, Texas, q few weeks
ago. He was accused Of a crime as
grave as murder, and had been con-
victed. The Judge denied the motion
for new trial, and asked the custom
ary question: "Have you anything to
say why sentence should not be pro-
nounced @ The prisoner responded
that be knew nothing he could say
would influence the Court, as all the
forms Of law had been observed, but
he would like to say few words to his
colored friends. He started of slowly
and deliberately, reviewing the testi-
monyi showing the inconsistency Of
witnesses statements, and then, carried
away with the idea OF wrong done him,
be burst forth into a strain Of elOQuence
seldom heard. When he sat down, the
Judge said: "Sam, / thought YOU
guilty; 1 don't believe so now, and will
set aside the judgment overrullng your
motion for a new trial, aud give Won
another chance" The county attorney
dismissed the case, and the prisoner

THE KING OF SwEDEN's ARM.-It is
told Of Marshal Bernad0tte, afterward
King OF Sweden, that be had an unac-
cOuntable aversion 10 being bled. Once
when lying very low his medical adviser
said he must be bled to save his life.
Before barring his arm, however, Ber-
nadotte made the operator promise that
be would never divulge what was TO be
seen on II, and the doctor made g SOL
emn vow, which he broke. A Phry-
Eian cap, with the motto death to

he pricked this regieide maxim into his
skin never dreamed that one day he
would come to be a king himself

AN UNFORTUNATE MANNER.-A lady
may be well educated, well trained, and
possessed Of good manners, aud still
have an unfortunate manner which re-
pels friendship. In city stores We often
meet with saleswomen whose air OF su-
percilious Indifference, and icy remote
ness from the least interest in us or our
purchases, sends us away half frozen.
There is an atmosphere of forbiddiug-
ness about such stores, and We are glad
10 get out of them into the sunshine.
On the other band, we know certain
saleswOmen who are so sunny, so genial
and so delightful in their way Of serving
Us, that TO buy from them is perfect
pleasure, and they often persuade US
into taking what we do not really want,
solely by the charm of their sweet, un-
affected grace. a cordial, wOmanly
manner is we'll worth cultivating.

from human hair. Diluted sulphurie
acid is found to be the best solvent, and
there appears to be three coloring pig
ments-yellow, red aud black-all the
shades being also produced by the mix

yellow hair, there is only the yellow
pigment in red hair, the red pigment
is mixed with more or less yellow, pro-
dueing the various shades Of red and

ways mixed with yellow and red, but
