A committee of gentlemen of At
lantic City intend giving a fancy
dress ball at city hall in short time,
one that has never been seen at At
lantic City before.
Friday evening, July 4th, will be
long remembered by the many friends
and visitors to the Truitt House. 1t
was the first concert and hop of the
season. Long before the time an
nounced for the commencement the
place was filled with many of our
most distinguished visitors and citi-
zens. The place was decorated with
fisgs, &c, making beautiful appear
ance. Tne dancing floor has been
enlarged since last season, so that it
accommodated the party very nicely,
though the attendance was so large
that it would have required but few
more to have crowded the place to its
utmost capacity. The music, which
was very fine, was furnished by Prof.
Harry.
A grand vocal concert was given
by Edward Green and D. r. Truitt,
at city hall, on Thursday evening,
July Sd. The programme consisted
of solos, quartettes, DUETS and
sketches. Although the concert was
very fine one, there was not as
many out as there should haye been,
but we hope at their next they will
have a larger house. Miss Alice
Deaton, of Philadelphia, rendered
some very fine solos. Indeed she is
a very fine singer. Prof. Skinner
horn gave some very nice mnsic from
the guitar. The peerless quartette
was very good. A solo was also
sang very nicely by Madame Steven
son. In fact the whole programme
was fine one.
Those wishing 10 pay there sub
scriptions for the JOURNAL can do so
now by seeing George G. Clinton at
at mis- cigar store No. 1920 Atlantic
avenue. All subscriptions thankfully
received.
Proprietors of hotels, boarding
houses and cottages will find it to
their advantage to advertise their
houses in the JoURNALterms moderate.
Our colored police look we'll in
their uniform. We only hope they
will be kept On all the year as well
as the colored voters vote all the year
or whenever there is an election, and
they always go solid to. In Atlantic
City the Republicans need them but
they say they want no fooling.
An accident occurred on Sunday to
a party of five ladies and FIVE gentle
men who were sailing in the yacht
"Pinkie.' The yacht upset them all
in the water, two of the ladies were
able to swim and reached the over
turned boat while the gentlemen sue,
ceeded in getting the other three also
to the boat side Row boats went at
once to their rescue.
