Camp Meetings and Hogs.
Foi several days the colored
people have been holding a camp-
meeting at Keysville, near town.
Before it started one of the lead
ing brethren approached a .white
gentleman who lived near and
raised a good deal of stock, and
and the following conversation
ensued: "Boss, how many hogs
is yer got and whar is dey?" "Well,
about thirty, and most of them are
in the woods." "Boss, I'd 'vise
you to put dera hogs in de pen
and sit over dem wid a double
barrel gun. Camp meeting and
hogs don't mix well together."

Amusements.
The Opera House opened a
preliminary season last night to an
afidirjner'df fair proportions. - All
who were present took note before
the raising of the curtain of the
improvements made during the
vacation. The house looked
much brighter than it did at the
close of the season. This was
due to fresh paints, carpets, mat
tings and curtains. In the orches
tra were one or two new. faces
who gave" strength to it. The play
"Torro' the Morning" is by; Fred.
G. Maeder, who does nothing
poorly and has added much to the
reputation of several stars, now of
the first magnitude. Mr. John F
Ward, who is at the head of the
company, captured the audience
in his triple character of Rody U
Flaiuriy, Doctor Felix McGlinty
and Laty O' Fogarty. Deserving
of snecial mention was the leading
lady, Miss May Davenport, who
sustained a dual character, and
the little Miss Ida Ward, who is
beyond question one of the finest
child actresses on the stage. Of
the rest of the company it is suf
ficient to say that they were equal
to the parts assigned to them by
the plot. Of the play, it is like all
of Maeder's productions; it offers
the opportunities, and the rest is
left to the actors. The same
company will hold the boards dur
ing the week. Pittsburg Com

New Orleans Exposition.
Parties in Vera Cruz have asked
for space at the New Orleans Ex'
position for the display of Mexi
can fruits, flowers and trees, and
the exposition authorities have
determined to invite such displays
from other semi-tropical regions.
A full equipped department of
this kind would be one of the most
beautiful features in the exposition
New Orleans is only three to five
days distant from the tropical re
gion of this hemisphere, and
steamers . ply between it and the
Gulf ports every week. A large
garden filled with high-colored
tropical flora, orchids, fruits and
trees, all living and growing in na
tive luxuriance and beauty, would
be a sight to excite the admiration
of the Northerners who visit the
exprisTtrort.--: V

Matthews, located near Sandy
Ridge church, 'fn ? that county.
With the gin house ten bales of
cotton, all the property of Mrs.
Matthews, were burned. The loss
is one -thousand eight hundred
dollars. ' The origin of the fire is
supposed to. have been a match in
a lot of cotton which ignited as it
was going through the gin. -Charlotte
