A MIXED QUESTION.
Who Wants TO Know IL White and Black
People May Intermarry in Washington.

Some Information for the Maryland Man
Who Wants to Know IL White and Black
People May Intermarry I'm Washington.
The commissioners received q letter day
or two ago from a man in Maryland, asking
for information on q rather peculiar and mixed
subject. The writer stated that he had made
wager that there was no law in vogue in
this city prohibiting miscegenation, or the
intermarrying of whites with blacks. He
was not sure, and SO wrote the commissioners
for information. r-rs
The commissioners referred the letter to
Mr.. Il. j. Meigs, clerk of the supreme court
of the district, who issues all the marriage
licenses. Mr. Meigs stated to reporter last
night that there was no law in the district
forbdding such unions. He said that while
there had been no cases brought to his notice
of whites and blacks marrying, he had no
doubt that it was and had been done. The
form of marriage license is very simple, and
does not state the color age, or nativity OF
persons to whom it is granted.
The subject has, for the past few days,
been literally discussed, and, although there
has been moral objection, such marriage
has been declared legal by those presumed to
know.
reporter was informed last night that a
white woman and black man were married
here in 1879. They went to live in George
town, where they resided for short time,
and all went well until the facts in the case
became generally known. Then Georgetown
became too hot to hold them, and the pair
hurriedly left. When last heard of they were
somewhere in Virginia

A DARING AND FooLHARDY ACT.
An Unknown Man Walks Around ths
Dome OF the Capitol Ola the Railing.

An Unknown Han Walks Around tho
Dome OF the Capitol Oh the Railing.
An unknown man, evidently stranger
and very daring one, performed feat about
noon yesterday which chilled the blood Of
everyone who witnessed it. He ascended to
the dome of the capitol, and producing a pair
of opera glasses, mounted the railing sur
rounding the dizzy heighted platform, hun
dreds of feet above the ground and walked de-
liberately around on the narrow footing, view
ing the city and surrounding country through
his glasses. Several persons in the parks
below, who witnessed the man spider, out
lined against the sky like speck almost in
tho clouds, rushed in and told Capt. ALL
baugh, Of the capitol police force, and he inn
mediately dispatched Officer E. L. Hurt, to
the dome, with instructions to bring the
foolhardy man down. Mr.. Fred.
Stromberger accompanied the officer,
who upon reaching the top, commanded
the stranger to get down. The command was
obeyed by the aerialist, who remarked, in a
cool manner, "Why, that's nothing. Pm used
to that sort of business" He refused to give
his name, and descended in company with the
officer and Mr.. Stromberger. The dome top
is nearly 400 feet above the ground, and to
even look down from behind the railings
would make an average mortal quite dizzy.

Interesting Discussion Upon Fruits and
Flowers nt it's Meeting Last Night.
The regular monthly meeting Of the Dis
trct of Columbia Horticultural society was
held last evening at the residence of Mrs.
NJ orell, corner of Eighteenth street and New
York avenue. The grounds of the mansion
were handsomely decorated with Chinese
lanterns. After the formal business of the
meeting was transacted Col. Curtis read an
essay on art in Nature and Nature
in Art" The essayist said that though
art could never surpass by sculpture
or painting the works of nature, yet by cnl-
tivation and by bridization tho crudest of
fruits and tho rudest of flowers have been
brought to their present excollency and
grandeur. The leading idea Of the essay was
excellently rendered and much applauded
Mr.. Judd, of the firm of Judd n Detweiler
being called upon by the secretary, said that
art could only be termed an aid to nature.
but admitted her triumphs in conjunction
with labor had becn marvellous. He particu-
larly mentioned tho great Improvement ten
dered by art to tho dahla during the
last thirty years. Mr.. Saul, the president,
said that art could take advantage of tho
freaks of nature and porpetuate them. The
gladiolus, he said, was originally coarse red
flower from Africa. Now its hues are in
Vulnerable
Mr.. Clark showed number Of grapes, and
showing fine bunch of Catawba, said it re-
quired ashes and iron in cultivation and also
sary exposure. He showed also somo very
fine specimens Of Rogers No. a, the
wilder, and also one of his own origina-
tion, the Columbia. Mr.. Saul, speaking
of roses, said that the roses from China
and Japan were tho most successful
in the eastern states of America Such were
the teas and noisettes. Mai. Driscoll spoke
of the pleasures of the viniculturist who, by
means of little trouble and the erection of
trellises can have for two months the finest
specimens of grapes, while those that are ex-
posed for sale in the market arc very inferior
in quality. Mr.. Saul said that the new pear,
the Keitfer hybrid, had been sold for so cents
each this year in Philadelphia. He was not
of the opinion that it was so valuable. Mr.
Clark said that at / cent per pound there was
more money in grapes than in any other
| crop.
