Tbe UemoTil of Weed. e. ,
Many of our citizens complain that the
city authorities do not render ;that hearty
co-operation, in placing the city in good
sanitary condition, that they were led to
expect from the Marshal's advertisement in
regard to the removal of obnoxious weeds,
etc. In a number of instances,' we are in
formed, parties notified have placed the
weeds in tbe streets with a positive promise
that they would be promptly removed, and
they have had much trouble afterward in
inducing the city to remove them. . In one
instance, we learn, weeds were thus allow
ed to remain in tbe street one week after
their promised removal, notwithstanding,
in the meantime, the attention of the Mar
shal and Health Officer and a policeman
was called to them. Jf, as is alleged, there
is! any deficiency in tbe force necessary to
attend to all the work required in this di
rection with the requisite promptitude,
there should be some means adopted to in
crease the force at once id the proper
stnitdurd. j

wise step on his part. . He iouna oeiby

promising him that he would not prosecute
him for the theft if he would tell where the
other two pairwereto.be found, which he

that Bclby already had as much "law" as

Col. DeRosset received an answer from his

conferred with the family of the deceased
as to the matter referred to, and that they
had expressed the wish that tbe : effects of
deceased,' including the Orton plantation,
should be placed in charge of Cel.! DeRos
set until further notice, The body and ef
fects were, therefore, turned over by Vice
Consul Sprunt to Col. DeRosset. . -
The .- following j are the effects of Mr.
Roundell, Which were found by the Coro
ner and his jury, and by them turned over
to their proper custodian:
A sum of money; amounting to $25 88,
one engraved sealj two post office keys.two
gold and pearl shirt studs,, and one bunch
of keys, found in hispockets;one box cart-'
ridges, foond on his bed; a pistol by the

Sale of a ttieamalilp .lue.
The Baltimore Sun : records tbe sale in
i , , - i j i
that city, jon Tuesday, for: the, benefit of
creditors, of the property of the Baltimore
and Southern Steam Transportation Com
pany, operating between Baltimore and
Wilmington, N. C.1, including four steam
ships, hoisting engine and boiler, iron safe,
platform scales, wheelbarrows, trucks, &x,
together with the charter, rights and fran
chises of the line, ail for $20,000. The
steamships are the Raleigh, tons,' built
in 1873; D.J. Foley, 541 tons, built in 1872;
Jfcbecea Clyde, 443 tons, overhauled in 1871,
and the Lucille, 437 tons, overhauled in
1872. There was a good attendance of
business men at the sale, but the bidding
was very flat. The j first bid was $10,000
and for a long while it seemed there would
not be another, but one of the trustees said
there were liens against the ships for twice
(hat sum, and the trustees could not sell
clear of incumbrance at that price. Then
$15,000 was offered, and after hammering
away for some time and getting no.higher
bid tbe auctioneer stopped, and. many per
sons left. There was a consultation be
t ween several parties, and at its conclusion
Mr. Bennett announced that the sale would
go on peremptorily, j A bid of $20,000 was
made by Mr. Henry James, and the prop
erty was knocked down at that figure. It
was stated that Messrs. Henry James, Wm,
H. Baldwin, Jr., and John' W. D. Pentz
were the purchasers as a syndicate of the
creditors. Several weeks since the same
property waS offered at public sale, when
$40,000 was the first bid, but the: trustees
withdrew it. Subsequently a meeting of
creditors was held,' and in view of the fact
that holders of liens were pressing them
for payment, and that the ships would in a
few days fall into the hands of the United
States marshal to be sold', it was decided to
sell the property peremptorily. The Raleigh
and D. J. Foley are fine steamships, built
by John S. Beacham & Bro.; Baltimore,
and the entire property cost perhaps seven
or eight times more than it sold for. When
the kale is ratified it is understood the cor ;
poration will make a fresh start. ' The line
has not ceased operations at any time. ;

A Bad Place In one of ne Streets. ,
We have heretofore called the attention of
our city authorities to the condition of the
locality on Second, between Mulberry and
Walnut streets, where there is a deep and
wide gully washed in the street, rendering
it not only difficult but dangerous for the
passage of vehicles or. pedestrians, espe
cially at night It has been in that condh
tion ever" since the great storm of the 30th
of June, Some slight .attempt was made
to fill it up, but we learn from some of the
residents in that vicinity that the loads
dumped into the cavity were of such a
character that it should have been carried
for some distance beyond the city, limits,
where the', disagreeable odor arising from
it could not reach . the , olfactories oi our
citizens, lt is hoped the City Marshal will
1 see that the matter is , attended to at as
I
early a moment as practicable,
