The music for the occasion, both vocal and instrumental, will be very fine. There will be three hymns sung by the choir with organ accom paniament, and tho exclusively instru mental portion of the services will consist of the tollowing,.in the order in i which they are named: "Offertory," upon the organ; " Alligrotto," by Forbes ; "Guide me, Oh, Thou Great Jehovah," by Flotow ; "Andante." in A Bat, by Batisli ; the three last named pieces by the orchestra; consisting of organ, two violins, two cornets and contra base. " , The services to-morrow will be com memorative of the Great - Reformation of the 16th century brought about, un der God, by Luther, at both the morn ing services (which will be German) and in the Evening services in English, the battle- hymn of the Reformation. "Fan feste Burg est unser Gott" will be sung. In the English services at night the choir will be assisted by a -numbe of gentlemen noted for their musica1 ability, who will with their various instruments accompany the organ. This will be the 366th anniversity of the Reformation, it having been begun October 31st 1517, by Luther's nailing ninety five theses against the church door of Wittenberg, designed to correct the evils then existing in the church. Steamship and Railway. - The ninth annual convention of the Southern Steamship and Railway As sociation was held in Atlanta last Wed nesday. Tbe Association met in the hall over the Georgia Railroad office at 11 o'clock a. ra., and was in session until 10 o'clock p. m. Commissioner Powers submitted1 his annual report. The question of the renewal of the old agreement was submitted to tho execu tive committee, which was in session all the afternoon. The convention re assembled at 8 o'clock, when the com mittee reported in favor of adopting the old agreement. This was finally agreed to, and the presaut, officers of - the asso ciation were re-elected. It was deter mined to elect throe arbitrators instead of one, and the following gentlemen were chosen as arbitrators : T. H. Car ter, John Screven and E. K. Sibley. The adoption of the old agreement will preserve the present regulations in i the railroad pool at least for a year from jthe first of January next unless there is some unexpected difficulty. The meet" ing adjourned in good humor. The rate committee met yesterday at 10 o'clock, but no important action is probable.

Huggins informs us that the oysters spoken of by the Beaufort Telephone, an account of which was published in the Rkvikyv of the 22nd inst.. were actually sent from ihis city to the Exposition, as stated in that paper, and that the price paid for them was at the rate of four dollars per bushel. They were shipped by Capt. Huggins.

It may seem incredible, but it Is nevertheless a fact that since operations were com menced, a week or two ago, there haye been more than 75 miles of telephone wire stretched over the city, j A Sudden Attack. . We regret to state that Capt. Colviu, of the steamer John Dawson, was taken seriously sick this forenoon. We saw him at our oflice during tho early morn ing hours and he complained of much pain in his limbs, aDd we learn that soon after he was - taken with a chill and was obliged to take to his state room on the boat. .When the steamer left this afternoon the chill had left him, but he was suffering from a yery high fever. We hope that 1m attack may yield-readily to medical treatment and that in a few days he may be as well as cvef aguin - Matrimonial. .A correspondent at Pt. Caswell, Ponder county, writes us that such a spirit of "marrying and giving in marriage as now exits in that vicinity has not been known m many years. On the 24th inst, Mr. Walter Gaylor and Miss Julia McDuffie were united in marriage, and on the following day Dobbin Callahan, Esq., and Miss Adda Gaylor. sister to the first named gentle man, were also married. On the 7th proximo another brilliant wedding is announced to take place, and there are several other couples whose marriage may be expected at almost any time. In concluding his pleasant letter our esteemed correspondent asks. "What does this mean?" . If an answer is ex pected from us, we-should say that the yoong people of thatViciuity were very sensible, and if wo were to give any ad vice in the matter we should say to the young ladies: j Be sure of the love of some proper young man, and then get married as quick as you can.
