Kniarhm of PytUlas. We understand that Cumberland Lodge, No. 17, K. of at this place, will give a grand entertainment on the 24th of May, that being the eighth anniversary of the Lodge. We learn it will probably be held at the cave, and that everything necessary to make it a perfect success will be done.

Barbecued lambs, shoats, as well as a ible of choicest sweet-meats it is expected will be prepared. Invitations will probably be issued pretty freely, enough so, we hope, to include all newspaper men. The gas supply for the city has been very much improved for the last three or four weeks. This is owing to the fact that the excellent Superintendant, Mr. A.

Hopper, has had an extra main run from the works through Dunlop alley to connect with the main supply pipe on Commerce Btreet. In case the old pipe on Front street should ever again become clogged or filled with water as it did during our recent great overflow, this new pipe will keep the city abundantly supplied with gas. W. II. Crotzer, of the 11th district, seems to be doing a good work in his section of the "moral vineyard" in uniting young and bouyant souls in the holy bonds of wedlock.

This was the second affair In the last two months, at which the 'Squire has officiated, in which the course of true love triumphed over the cruel mandates of parents, and reminds us forcibly of those lines of the poet Saxe, where he wittily asks "Who ever heard Of a marriage deterred.

Tub Dover Courier is kicking because the County Court levied a county tax of 80 cents on the $100, an Increase of five cents over last year.

The chief credit for the delightful music heard on this occasion is due to the quiet, patient, energetic skill of Prof. Emery, who has done 1 so much in his efficient, quiet way to develop the fine musical talent we have here in our midst.

He is a most excellent professor of mUsic and possesses to a rare degree the faculty of imparting musical knowledge to others. Personals. Charlie West, a popular commercial tourist, was in town yesterday. Mr. T.

Bailey was taken suddenly quite sick last Monday and for several days his family and friends were seriously alarmed at his condition. We are pleased to hear that he is now very much improved and will doubtless be out in a few days. Coop's Great Show. This enormous establishment, which enjoys a reputation and popularity not excelled by any show in the entire country, will be here on Tuesday, April 18th, and give two performances. Mr.

Coup has the reputation of always fulfilling his promises, and therefore those wbo visit the show may expect tc see every tiling advertised. The advertisement in another column will give some idea of its numerous attractions. In an interview with Mr. Coup, the showman and man of new ideas published in the New York Times, Mr. Coup says I have introduced more progressive and original ideas, and more actual novelties in the show business than any other person who ever engaged in it.

It has always been my policy to change the leading features of my establishment every year. By doing so, I am enabled to give my patrons an entirely new set of attractions every season. In order to do this, I always sell, during the winter, all of the old attractions to other shows, and replace them with new. In this way I have a new show every season, while other shows have only worn out, cast off and second-hand attractions to exhibit. I have pursued this course this season, and now present more genuine novelties than all the combined shows of the country together.

As regards expenses, my salary list alone, last year, was much in excess of the entire gross receipts of one of the most pretentious shows in the country. This season it is larger still, auu it costs more to run my establishment, than it does to run any show now travelling. These are indisputable facts, and I challenge any one to refute them.

The accompanying congestion of the kidneys frequently was acutely painful. I nave baa treat ment by the best physicians, but their skill gave me no relief. The widespread celebrity of the Bailey Springs, in the cure of affections of the urinary orgains, determined me to try them. I have been heretwo weeks and am entirely relieved. Indeed, in less than one week, all appearance or sensation of disease had disappeared, as If by magic.

I leave for home to-day, and make this voluntary statement, believing that too much cannot be said in regard to the wonderful effects of the waters here. Very truly, N. W. Ward, Senatobla, Miss. July 10, 1879.
