FEBRUARY s, 1884-The snow has
rapidly disappeared under the infu
ence of a warmer atmosphere, and
the recent heavy rains, and to day is
quite pleasant, thereby verifying the
predictions of the weather wise, that
the recent change of the moon was
indicative of warmer weather. We'll,
we will enjoy the warmth while it
lasts, and pay due Difference to the

weather which his ancient majesty
predicts for the future.

was in the city this week.
Miss Mary Smith of jersey Shore
is the guest of Mr.. and Mrs. Palmer
on Walnut street.
Mr.. Ellis Black and Thomas Strokes
are drawn for the next term of court
to serve on tie petit jury.
There was small row among
three coIored men last Saturday on
Market street, which caused there ar
rest, it resulted from too much i'm
bibing,
Mr.. S. C. Collins Post Commander
of Gen. Kinks post left Oh Tuesday
for Lancaster to attend the depart
ment encampment of the G. A, r..
The night school is still progress
ing. Miss Annie Green took entire
charge of the school last Monday
night. We hope she may succeed in
building up large school.
The missionary society of Mill
street A, M. e. church met last Sun
day afternoon with full attendance.
They succeeded in raising SIS SIS for
the missionary work. The programme
was good and we'll carried out.
One of the grandest weddings ever
witnessed among the colored people
of this part of the State took place at
the Shiloh Baptist church on Wal
nut street. The contracting parties
were Mr.. Luther w. Morgan and
Miss Emma G. Brooks. The brides
maid was Miss Hattie Smith while
Mr.. George w. Brisco figured highly
as the grooms best man. The ushers
were Messrs. General n. Brooks,
Moses B. Boyd, Harry O. Wedlock
James Winters. After the happy
couple were pronounced one by Rev.
j. nj. Palmer who officiated on this
grand occasion the bridal party and
the invited guests proceeded to
Weightmans hall where the young
people tripped the terpsicorian art
from nine until eleven o'clock when
the party was called to order and the
refreshments were served, which con
sisted of some of the finest delaeacies
Of the season. After this part Of the
programme was carried out and the
good things PIT away dancing was
again in order and continued until
one o'clock when the last sweet
strains of the orchestra was heard
playing Home, Sweet Home" The
toilets of both ladies and gentlemen
were very fine and suitable for the
occasion space will not permit me to
describe them. The bridal presents
were particularly handsome as well
as valuable Many persons have
visited the residence of the brides
parents, on FIlbert street where
they were kindly offered the oppor-
tunity to inspect the array of gifts.
Explanations of establishment and
delight were invollantarily uttered by
all who were thus favored. The
sight offered is certainly very pleas
ing and interesting one. 1t would not
accord with the desires Of the family
10 pass any list or description of the
various presents published. But it
may be said that they are great
variety and of beautiful, as well as
highly valuable character. The
young couple may well feel deeply
gratifed at the testimonials of friend
ship they have received which are
sufficiently numerous to excite the
good natured envy of all their &C
quaintances, be they married or
single. a. NJ. G.
