a fire last Sunday which started in

formed q bucket brigade. At the
same time al incendiary fire was
started in another part of the town

The Manufacturers Record,
Of Baltimore-the South's great in
dustrial exponent-of which 1t has
been said that it is "the most wide.
" quosed industrial paper in the
world" does not confine it's sphere
to the manufacturing interests OF
this section, but covers every line
of progress looking to the advance
ment and prosperity OF the South
and with the last issue com menced
the publication of a complete week
ly list of every new private and Ma
tional bank organized anywhere II

/ 1t will be seen by advertisement that Capt.
William Page Carter OF Clarke county, Vir-
ginia, will give Readings and Recitals of Origi-
nal Poems and Sketches, humorous and pa
thetic, embracing "reminiscences OF the War,
Plantation Sketches, &c, at Charles Wash
ington Hall" in Charlestown, on Thursday
Evening, April 18th. We hope this communi-
ty will honor itself by an attendance that will
only be limited by the capacity of the hall. In
Baltimore and New York he was heard and
applauded by the best and most cultured peo-
pie and highly complimented by the Press
One paper says;
He was much applauded for the quaint,
and vet natural and entertaining, way IN which
he told his short stories. He was very success
ful. both in diction and delivery in showing
the peculiarities of style aud the original man
ner which the old-time Southern colored mar
rator held his listeners
The Baltimore Sun said:
Capt. Carter gave poetic and prose selec-
tions, including war sketches and sentimental
tales but the majority were pathetic and hui
morous warns OF the Virginia negro, which
have won a national reputation for the writer;
His war stories were thrilling. His sentimental
productions were given with grace OF elocu-
ton that charmed his hearers. The negro sto-
res had rich vein of humor and provoked
frequent applause
The Baltimore american said
Capt Carter recited in prose and verse Sc
lections of his own productons-negro dialect
sketches. and stirring descriptions of the trials
and triumphs of the BOYS in gray. The gal
liant soldier of Carriers famous battery was well
qualified TO chronicle them. He was intro
duced 20 the audience by Col. Richard NJ.
Johnston Many of the audience called upon
Capt and Mrs Carter in the green room, with
greetings and congratulations, all earnestly
hoping that the new literary star may long
shine resplendent in the Southern sky"

An ugly complexion made Nellie a fright,
Her face was all pimply and red,
Though her features were good, and her blue
eyes were bright,
What plain girl is Nellie they said
But now, as by magic, plain Nellie has grown
As fair as an artists bright dream;
Her face is as sweet as flower new-olown,
Her cheeks are like peaches and cream.
As Nellie walks out in the fair morning light,
Her beauty attracts every eye,
And as for the people who called her fright,
why, Nellie is handsome they cry.
And the reason of the change is that Nell
lie took DR. Pierces Golden Medical Dis

her complexion, made her blood pure, her
breath sweet, her face tair and rosy, and re-
moved the defects that had obscured her
