Vlrglula Appointments.
Special to Baltimore Sun.l
Washington, May 20.
On Friday night last Col. Mosby
an interview at the White House
viih the Presideut on the subject of
M)ntejf the Federal appointments
for the State of Virginia. Col. Mosby
had another interview with the Presi
dent oif the same subject yesterday
norning, and urged the appointment
f Col. W. W. Forbes 3S postmaster
at lliuhmond.and of James D. Brady
as collector of internal revenue at
Petersburg. The President then pro
mised Col. Mosby that he would di
rect tjoaimissions to be made out for
botlfof the gentlemen named. Sub
sequently to his interview with the
President Col. Mo9by stated iu con
versation with the correspondent of
the JStin, that in the case of the inter
nal revenue collector at Petersburg
he had made it a test case as between
native jSouthern applicants and car
pet baggers, iiichards, the present
collector, is a Maine carpet-bagger.
His reappointment was pressed very
strongly by Mr. Blaine, and also by
Mr. Jorgenson, the Republican mem
ber of the House from the Peters
burg district, and .the only Republi
can elected to the House of Repre
sentatives from Virginia.
Chatnberlaln'a Opinion of Hampton,
The New York HeraUVs man has
interviewed Chamberlain, Here is a
part of what the great disappointed
said:
It is a fact, however, that now
there is peace and good order
throughout the State, although I do
not think that this should be to any
extent regarded as a justification of
the illegal or violent measures that
were resorted to for the purpose of
obtaining control. Still, it may be
recognized as a fact that so far in the
State at large there bave been no
ontrages of power or abuse of the
colored people or Republicans gener
ally!! .
There was a large majority of the
meople of South Carolina entitled to
'vote who desired a continuance of
nhc Republican administration, and
I do not think that Ueneral Hampton
represents this element. Still I be
lieve he will endeavor to make a
good and honest government so far
as its finaueiai and practical depart
ments are concerned.

THE IHECKLENBCBG DECLARA
TION, The 102nd Anniversary ov. Vance
Speaks.
The day was grandly celebrated at
Charlotte on Monday by firing of
cannon, military parade, and a speech
of the Governor. We give the fol
lowing synopsis that appears in the
Richmond Dispatch:
The Governor said it was a good
sign to see a people meet annually to
celebrate the wisest and best deeds
of their ancestors. The love of free
dom will never perish so long as we
continue to commemorate the day on
which that freedom was born. The
last twelve years have seen the
severest strains since their erection
upon the bulwarks of our liber
ties, which on yesterday oue hun
dred and two years ago were
begun to be established, and de
clared should be ours by our fore
fathers of Mecklenburg county. Du
ring that time they "have been as
sailed by all the chaotic disorders
following rampant in the wake of
civil war sectional hatred, political
disagreements, embittered by gene
rations of accumulated dislike, and
tempered by but few honest differ
ences; while unscrupulous ambition,
insatiate venality, and corruption
wide-spread and indescribable, per
vaded all ranks. The hearts of all
patriots iu the laud were hushed with
fear, and there was grave reason to
believe that we were drifting into
that chaotic anarchy from which
tnere is
through the
It was only
no escape save
gates of despotism,
the recollection of the
whom we derive our
people from
blood which enabled us to preserve
any hope; thoughts of their perse
vering, liberty-loving character of
the pertinacity with which they re
sisted tyranny and attacked fraud
and corruption, gaining victory in the
end. These thoughts made our faith
grow brighter in the capacity of our
people to follow their example.
A glimpse of fruition is even now
gladdening our eyes, and we may rea
sonably hope and believe that the
worst is passed, and ere long we will
be permitted to live on in peace, pros
perity and happiness.
The Virginia Episcopal Council.
Special Dispatch to Baltimore Sun.

The Episcopal Council closed its
session yesterday after the transac

"that the diocese of Virginia prizes
episcopacy as a venerable, historic
form of church government or eccle
siastical polity, but does not main
tain and does uot find in the prayer
book the exclusive validity of episco
pal orders. 'V The whole matter was
eventually Taid on the table. The
Council nonconcurred in the amend
ment to the constitution proposed by
the General Convention of 1874 re
garding missionary jurisdiction.

Keep t lie Street Clean.
The sickly season of the year approach
eth and great care should be taken to place
the city in good sanitary condition. We
regret, however, to learn from many of
our citizens that, notwithstanding the
health regulation ?, those whose duty it Is to
look after the matter are not setting a very
good example in regard to cleansing the
streets, as one gentleman says no dirt or
rubbish has been removed from the street
in the square where he resides for several
weeks, and that a dead rooster was allowed
to remain unburied upon the street for
several days, until a lad came and volunta
rily carried it away to some other locality.
There should be do neglect in such an im
portant a matter as preserving the public
health.

with the view of improving their minds
and making themselves useful as well as or
namental in their day and generation. We
are glad to be able to record such evidences
of a desire on the part of our colored pop
ulation to improve their intellectual as well
as moral condition. The last subject for
discussion was, in substance, "Which has
the most influence on the public mind, the
hope of reward or the fear of punishment."

member of the corps, from its organization
up to the present time, be printed in pam
phlet form, and the proceeds of its Bale de
voted to assisting the maimed, crippled and
blind Confederate soldiers in or near our
city, and the widows and orphans of Con
federate soldiers in our midst. What say

The Camp meeting An incident.
The Camp meeting which has been in
progress at Gander Hall, about seventeen
miles below this city, near what is known
as the "Sugar Loaf," since Thursday last,
broke up yesterday. The steamer Juniper
arrived at the wharf, foot of Chestnut
street, about 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
with a flat in tow, and both steamer
and flat were literally crammed with
colored passengers, some estimating the
number at over one thousand.
By the way, a crowd that went down to
the meeting: on Sundav. on the steamer
Underbill, met with quite a serious disap
pointment. The boat, when some consid
erable distance from the shore, unfortu
nately got aground, and it was found im
possible to convey the passengers to the
land even in flats. The boat remained
there, within bailing distance of the plaee
where the meeting was in progress, until
about 3 o'clock Monday morning, when she
got off and came up to this city. A portion
of the passengers had been taken off and
brought up by a small schooner that passed
about 1 o'clock that night. A good num
ber of our white citizens were on the boat,
and they say they didn't enjoy the trip

A ripstaving, uproarious, rantankerous
colored damsel, who answers to the name
of Amelia Bradley, was arrested in "Pad
dy's Hollow" Monday night, by Officer
McMillan, charged with drunkenness and
disorderly conduct. She had conscientious
scruples against being locked up in the
guard-house and literally "fit" her way to
that institution, being, when she arrived
there, a veritable "Flora McFlimsey," in
that she had nearly torn her clothes from
her person. In other words, not being ex
actly satisfied with the bad habits she had
inherited from mother Eve, she managed
very successfully to form another one.
And still she was not happy until she had
contrived to tear the officer's clothing until
they were nearly in as bad a condition as
her own. She will probably have a hear
ing this morning.
A Phenomenon.
A rather singular phenomenon was wit
nessed last night, about 11 o'clock. Ablack
cloud, spanning the entire firmament from
east to west, having all the appearance of
a column of black smoke, passed over this
city, moving in a southerly direction; and
as it gradually moved southwardly the
lower edge of the cloud assumed a fiery,
reddish hue. The rising of the cloud,
which was apparently only about twenty
five yards in width, was accompanied by a
stiff breeze, lasting, however, only a min
ute or two. We should not be surprised to
hear of a tornado somewhere near Wil
mington. Thermometer Record.

THE DUTY OF WOMAN. To be attractive is
a duty which every lady owes to herself, to her do
mestic circle, aad to society. Not only should she
endeavor to please in address and in apparel, but,
whenever possible, in complexion and in feature as
well. Facial embellishment is to a lady as proper.
and oftentimes as necessary, as are the adornments
of her raiment, the artificial graces of her conver
sation, of her demeanor, or other meretricious at
tractions upon which depend so mnch of her do
minion and influence over man. The woman who
permits herself to become unlovely, who resigns
herself hopelessly to the ravages of time, and the
spoliation of her charms, visits upon her f iiends and
admirers a sorrowful regret, that it becomes her to
avert to the latest day. Of this social duty it may
truthfully be said that she can best acquit herself
by the use of Qooraud's Olympian Cream. No oth
er preparation approaches this in excellence, in
harmlessness and purity, or compares with it in the
number of spontaneous testimonials that its virtues
have elicited. Its advertisement has hitherto been
its merit, its recommendation by all that have used
it, and not by sounding and pretentious advertising
in the journals of the day. Trial bottles 25 cents.
