THE COMMITTEE on GROUNDS AND BUILDINGS
SETTLE THE QUESTION or THE PIRsT vTR-
GINA REGIMENT ARMORY BY PURCHASING
THE TRENT PROPERTY FOR Sl2,5O0.


SETTLE THE QUESTION or THE FIRST vIR
GINA REGIMENT ARMoRY BY PURCHASING
THE TRENT PROPERTY FOR Sl2,500.
A meeting Of the Committee on Grounds
and Buildings was held at The City Hall at 4
z. NJ. yesterday. and was met by the Board
OF Officers OF the First Virginia regiment.
A visit was made to the City Spring lot,
where Colonel Cutsbaw explained bis ideas
as TO the .practicability OF this lot for the
regimental armory. The officers decided
that said lot would not answer at all, so the
entire party returned to the City Hall, view.
ing on their return the Trent properly.
The meeting OF the committee was called
to order by Mr.. Campbell, the sub-ehairman,
in the engineers Office, and after 'dsposing
OF the. usual routine business the question
OF the armory was taken up, and the off.
GERS. who were holding their meeting in the
Chancery Court room, were called in.
Mr.. PiZzini then stated that in order to
protect his property from a more serious
damage than the armory building he had
purchased the Eighth.street lot but in
order to show that he had taken no unfair
advantage OF the regiment he now offered
the lot to the committee at The same price
he had paid for II, and without any condi.
tions whatever.
The committee refused to consider it, as
in their judgment 1t was not desirable.
Mr.. Hayes then offered the following,
which was unanimously adopted:
"ReS0lred, That con mittee OF one be
appointed by the chairman to purchase the
lot on the southeast corner of Seventh and
Marshall streets, known as the Trent prop
erty, at the price named in the resolution OF
the City Council on the subjcct-yiz.,
S12,5O0-and that the Engineer Of the city
be requested to present plans for an armory
building at as early date as possible"
The Chair, in accordance with the reso.
luton, appointed Mr.. Pizzini, and the com.
mittee then adjourned.
Mr.. Pjzzini, with Lieutenant-C Colonel An.
Gerson, OF the First Virginia regiment
Immediately proceeded TO Mr.. J. Thompson
Browns office. the agent Of Mrs. Trent
and purchased the lot as had been ordered
by the committee; thus, it is hoped, set
tlng the question OF the armory TO the sat
isfaction OF all persons concerned.

A False Rumor Corrected.

We have been requested to publish the fol-
lowing:
BANBRDGE, November 2.-EditOr Morning
Nelcs: In your issue Of yesterday November u
see an extract from the Darien Timber Ga
zette, charging me with going to the house OF
a colored woman, breaking in the door and
shooting at one Edward Wilson. The reason
assigned for the shooting is that found Wilson
in the house with colored woman with whom
was reported to be living. l wish to state,
through your columns, the story is a grossly
false statement. l never owned pistol nor
shot at a man in my life Nor have ever lived
with any woman except my own lawful wife.
Whoever shot at Wi son or Nelson. am sure it
was not Prince Gadsen, and when l was lie
gally arrested and charged with it, the charge
was seen to be so flimsy and absurd, and
its falsity was so evident, that the prosecutors
brother inlaw told me that if would drop the
case he would pay the cost. 1 did not leave
Darien as the result of any compromise what
ever, but rather through the unpleasantness
growing out OF the matter AS you printed the
other side, l hope you will print this, Respect
fully, PRINCE E. GADsEN.

Tuesdays Elections

Latest returns from Tuesdays cleo
tions are very discouraging to the De
mocracy, and indicate generally Repub-
lican victories. The Republicans have
probably carried the State ticket in New
York, though the Legislature is in all
likelihood Democratic. In Virginia,
MahOneism, Readjusterism and Repub
licanlsm combined have succeeded in
defeating Daniel and the Democracy,
and what the effect will be time alone
can tell. In Mississippi, the Democrats
have been successful over the Green
hackers, Republicans and Independents,
but in all the other States in which cleo
tions were held Republican successes
are reported. At this time the reports
are too meagre to convey any definite
and positive information as to the result,
but the indications are that it is about as
herein detailed.

Formerly, at this season every year, we
had an annual scare, occasioned by the dread
OF yellow fever; but now it is scarcely thought
of, unless the Town Council should refer to it.
or the Board of Health should take
some steps to promote the sanitary
condition Of the place. The town was
visited by very malignant type in 1871. and
has peen threatened with it several times since.
At that time the town was almost de-
populated. Every one who did not die
and could get away left. The experience
thus obtained, though very bitter, has been
the means OF preventing recurrence Of the
fever since. The town since tLat time has
been kept under strict sanitary and quarantine
regulations. So that now very little Rpprehen-
sion is felt The danger is that this sense of
security will induce the authorities to relax
t1eir efforts in this direction. There are as
few local causes for sickness of any kind as
may be found in any seaport town. The Gulf
breezes are pure and refreshing, while those
that are waited to us from the Atlantic are
equally wholesome. st. Augustine, on the At
lantic, nearly opposite to U.s. is proverbiRl for
its healthfulness. and Cedar Keys is but little
inferior to it in this respect. S.SM.

CEDAR KEY, FLA, November Sit is now
mullet season, and the people Of Cedar Key
and vicinity are happy. Besides supplying the
home market, dealers ship large number Of
these most excellent fish to the interior Of
Georgia. Thomasville. Albany, Macon and
Atlantis are points to which large shipments
are made. This trade is gradually assuming
a magnitude worthy the attention of capital
lists. Some idea may be formed Of the number
taken here by the quantity often beached
at single haul OF the seine. which is some
times from one to three thousand. These and
other fish Of fine flavor are shipped in refrige-
rator cars to the markets referred to. where
they are received as fresh and palatable as
they were when hrst taken from the water.
We have four 1sh seasons here corresponding
to the four seasons OF the year. The best
mullet are caught in the fall, although the
season extends from September to April. The
snapper, red fish, and q variety Of others, live
near the bottom in these waters and from this
disposition are termed bottom fish" All
those have their season, ard can be successfully
taken only at that time. The mammoth green

pounds, are captured here. These, at
four cents gross-the usual price obtained
make it a profitable business under favorable
circumstances. Snappers are taken from the
snapper banks, which are simply favorable
localities for them to feed. Hooks and lines.

Prices of wheat and corn have de-

to fourteen cents per bushel since the
collapse of the bull movement in the
early part Of last month. and the bears
are pushing their advantage with vigor
that threaten to force values as much be-
low legitimate basis as previous manip-
ulation in the '1ong" interest had over
shot it. Meanwhile exporters who have
heretofore been passive spectators of the
market, are beginning to take lvelier

early increase in volume.
