A reporter took walk through our
city on Sunday and found good order
was maintained in the different parks,
excepting at tho one on the Pbiladel-
phia Pike, Just beyond Shellpot bridge,
directly opposite the famous springs
on the Wier property.
A few tents are erected, giving the
place q cireus-like appearance; a mer-
ry-go-around, a razzle dazzle or some.
thing OF the kind has also been erect
ed. A rather boisterous crowd wae
collected there. and 1t seemed to be q
rather Objectionable place for the
youths OF our city TO congregate, at
any time, much less on the Sabbath.
The proprietor should maintain better
order, or the authorities of the county
will be compelled to give the place
their attention.

The action OF the Court in granting
q license to Stanebury ]. Murray, Jr.,
for hotel at No. lO4 East Fourth
street, meets with favorable COM
mendation. For years the need OF a
hotel In this city where oolored people
could find frat class accommodations
has been greatly felt. and IL was tho
general opinion that some place should
be provided. The opipion OF the late
Supreme Chlof Justice Tanney. given
during the days when slavery was su-
preme, that colored man possesses no
right Which white man was bound to
respect, has long ago passed into OBJ
livion, and from tho nshes OF slavery
there has arisen a different class OF
eolored men. men who are we'll edu-
Gated and In some parts of this coun-
try all high positions as statesmen,
lawyers, physicians, etc. When such
men visit this city they wish to stop at
respectable place. where they can be
properly accommodated, but up to
this time there has never been such a
place. No man is better qualified to
keep hotel OF this kind than MIR.
Murray; he is, and always has been, q
leader among his people, and there Ia
not the slightest doubt but his place
Will be conducted strictly in accord
aIce with law, and prove q benefit to
this city. Mr.. Murray hns already
commenced to tear out his segar store
and will be ready Tor the accommoda-
ton OF guests In q week or ten days.

SIR: In regard to the mention of
Potter j. Fords name In con nectlon
with the Twelfth ward difficulty on
election day, desire to say that It was
used under misrepresentation and
entirely unwarranted. as tho words ati
tributed to him were not made use of
by him or anything that could be SO
construed, as l hayo learned from q
reliable source. Mr.. Ford was on his
way to his Office (Which necessitates
his passing the polling booth) when
his attention was called by Mr.. Daley
and Others to what they termed the
illegal acceptance of votes.
MIR. Fold told MIR. Early, the In
spector at Fourth street and Grant
avenue, that he should not accept any
votes that he was sure were illegal,
but that before refusing any vote he
should be positive that 1t was Illegal;
Furthermore, feel sure from my per.
sonal knowledge of Mr.. Ford that lie
would not do any act or make use OF
any expression that would reflect ON
a class OF people among whom know
he has many friends, and for whom
he has always been ready to do what
he could when called upon without
regard to color, politics or anything
else.
Ry publishing the above card you
will correct an unintentional wrong
which regret very much.
