ADelighsfuI musicale.

LAST evening quite number Of ladies and
gentlemen assembled at the hospitable resi-
dence Of Mr.. and Mrs. P. II. Ward, O2le-
thorpe square, to enjoy an evening Of music,
in which the st. Johns Choral Society and
nearly all the home musical talent Of the
city participated.
The programme was an exceedingly at
tractive one, consisting OF two parts. Part
first opened with the chorus "Away, away,
the Morn is Freshly Breaking" by the Sc.
Johns Choral Society, and was rendered
with fine effect. This was followed by the
songs THY Sentinel am " by Mr. W; King;
"Amalia," by Mrs. c. Parks; "The Midship.
mite" bv Mr.. Dougan; "The Valley of
Chamouni," by Mr.. r. Cornwel; "Oh How
Delightful" by Miss f. Colding; "Pieta
Signore," by Mr.. Max Meter; Marguerite, !"
by Mrs. A. T. Cleveland, and flute obligato
by Mr.. j. Hunter, concluding with the solo
duet and chorus from the Bohemian Girl,
Come with the Gypsy Bride" by Mrs.
Cleveland and tee Choral Society.
clark, Apollo strikes the Lyre," by the
Choral Society. After which Mr.. P. II.
Ward sang "Meet me Again." a song for
which Mr.. Frank Rebarer was announced,
but he, owing to sickness, was unable to
appear, SO Mr.. Ward kindly volunteered to
sing in his stead. He was followed by Mrs:
L. Haynes in the song beware"
and she was followed by a duet duet
and Goold. After this came the songs
"Kitty TyreT," by Mr.. r. T. Waller; "Mag-
netic Waltz. 4" by Mrs. W. King; Farewell"
by Mr.. E. Harden; the chorus "Blue Bells
of Scotland" by Mrs. Haines AID the st.
Johns Choral Society; the songs "Ah force
lui, from Traviats, by Miss Bertha Brace
well, and "Fsith and Hope" by Mr.. W.
Davidson. The entertainment concluded
with the quartette Calm be Thy Slum-
bers,n by Mrs. Haynes, Mrs. Ward and
Messrs. Goold and Ward.
1t might possibly appear out OF place to
particularly mention any names In an enter
tainment of this character, especially where
all ACQUITTED themselves so well and gave
such genuine pleasure to those fortunate
enough to be present. We are sure, how
ever, that the assembled guests, as well as
all who participated in the entertainment,
will pardon US for saying that the singing of
Mrs Cleveland, Mrs. Haynes, Mrs. King
and Miss Bracewell was simply charming.
Each of these ladies fairly captivated their
listeners, and received hearty encOreS, which
they gratifyingly acknowledged.
The st. Johns Choral Society Is an Or
ganization composed of ladies and gentle
men, mostly belonging to the congregation
of st. Johns Church, and formed by Mr..
and Mrs. Ward, for the purpose of Willing
away the tediousness of the long summer
months. What wss thus started as an ephe
neral institution, however, now bids fair to
become permanent, for as soon as the new
building attached to the church is completed,
they will hold regular musical evenings there.
The first of these will be given in about two
weeks, and thus not only will the musical
taste OF the community be cultivated, but
the public may expect pleasant entertain
ments this winter through their instrument
ality.

strike OF Charleston LabOrers
Against a savannah Man.

The following paragraph we find in the
Charleston Meas and Courier of yesterday:
s'Some trouble was caused at Chisolm's
mill yesterday by the strike of several col
ored laborers who had been employed by
Messrs. Lee Il Nilsson. the stevedoree, to IN
load a dlsmantled vessel which lies at the
wharf. The foreman of the work is a white
man named Cone from Savannah, and 1t was
against him that the strike was inaugurated.
1t seems that the laborers were accustomed
to go to work at 7:30 q. m. and to knock on
at $50 p. m, claiming ten hours work.
This, however, the foreman was not dis
posed to allow them and some of the work
men struck. Their places were supplied at
once In spite of the threats of the strikers,
and the new hands went to work yesterday
morning. Two policemen were sent to the
scene of the apprehended trouble, and on
their appearance the strikers disappeared
and the work went on"

where that Messrs. Barbour Bros, the well
known grocers in the southwestern por-
ton Of the city, have increased their field
of operation by adding a new branch, and
have established wood yard on the canal
between Railroad and New streets. They
have secured large supply of wood Of
various kinds,an the best, and are prepared
to furnish the same in any quantity. Mr..
G. D. Butler, a young man who has
had considerable experience in the wood
business, is in the employ OF the firm and
will be pleased to attend to the wants Of his
friends. Mr.. Robert Barbour, the junior of
the firm, has for ten years been in the en-
ploy Of theMoRNING News, the past few years
in the mailing department, and is a worthy
aud energetic young man. In consequence
of the enlargement Of their bust
ness he has been compelled to relin-
Quish his position and will in the
future give his exclusive attention to
the business OF his house. The firm will
continue to conduct the grocery business in
the same style that has rendered their es
tablishment so popular with the residents
of the southern portion of the city, and will
always have on hand fine stock of stand
ard and fancy groceries, cigars, etc. The
wood bu mess win be a separate branch,
and will have careful supervision.
The Messrs. Barbour Bros. have shown
that they deserve success, and by their
efforts, with strict attention TO business and
unvarying courtesy, have built up flourish
ing trade. Their new branch, it may be
assumed, will be managed with good judg
ment, and their friends and the public gene
rally, IN need of fuel, can, by sending their
orders to them, rely upon the certainty Of
having the came promptly and satisfactO-
rily filed. We commend them to increased
public patronage.

The celebrated Liebig Company of New
York, Paris and London, has attained it's
great reputation by adhering to two rules.
1t offers no cheap goods. 1t offers only
honest preparations at honest prices, and
consequently in buying preparations having
the name and seal of this reputable compa-
ny, one is certain of purity and excellence.
The Liebig CompanY's Arnicsted Extract of
Witch Hazel, for instance, although sold at
the same price as the qusck, colorless, weak
trash, sold under the name of Witch Hazel,
is so much superior in every way, that once
used, is sure to cause it to be used always
thereafter. 1t cures Piles, Salt Rheum, Skin
Diseases, Rheumatism, Cstsrrb, Painful
Monthlies, Sore Throat and Neuralgia. Be
sure to ask for Ltebig Co.'s Arnicated Ex-

Yesterday morning, about twelve O'Clock,
a rather singular accident was witnessed on
the hill foot Of Lincoln street. A wagon
loaded with ice, belonging to the Hnieker-
booker Ice Company, to which fine mule
was attached, was being driven down the
hill to the wharf when the shaft band
snapped and the shafts flew up in the air.
The head gear on the animal got
caught in some way in the
shafts and the as,Onished mule
had bis head jerked up heaYenWaTd in the
most uncomfortable manner, and was
nearly raised from his fore feet. After con-
siderable trouble, the animal was relieved
from his painful position, and the harness
was readjusted. The journey to the wharf
was then continued.
