Tiie large attendance upon the recent closing exercises and entertainments of both schools and the creditable wav in which the pupils acquitted themselves attest the appreciation ot the Dublic and the etlicicnt work that I is bein" done. A most commenciabie feature connected with the entertain ment given by the Graded School on Tuesday evening last, was the fact that the" entire net proceeds are to be used for repairing and improving the Academy building.

The old cry, "Ho ! for Nag's Head," though often used, will never wear out, or, fall into disuse. Many have voiced it in the past, main will voice it in future as now, with one accord, every lover of pleasure and seeker of health is heard to join the acclaim. With Jacobs in charge of the hotel a large crowd may be confidently expected and a general, joyous time looked for. Go early ami sta late if you would avoid sickness entirely and receive the full benefits of the place. THE ENTERTAINMENT. On Tuesday evening last the lanre Court liouse Hail was crowded to its utmost capacity, and it was our pleasure to be one of the large num ber who had assembled there to enjoy the entertainment given by the Edenton Graded School. At 8:30 o'clock the curtain rose and the first glance at the many pupils as they stood on the rostrum, so neatly and tastefulby dressed, and faces beaming with smiles, convinced one of the efficient and faithful work of the trainers of these roulhful minds. The exercises consisted of music, declamations, &c, and it seems that all were pleased be3ond their expec tations. Some of our oldest citizens sa' that it was the best of the kind they have ever seen in Edenton. The boys, of whom there was a ver3T large number, did so well that we feel that it would be unjust to men tion an' individual, and we can onl3 sa' that their efforts were ver3 highly complimented in general. The girls, of course, pleased the audience more than the boys, and first to bring the house down was little Annie Bond, who sang "The City Swell," which was encored. Others deserve special mention but our space is limited, but we will say, However, tnar. im enure rro- however, that the entire gramme was exceedingly well ren- dered. Airs. Williams and her music class furnished music for the occasion. Mrs. Williams is a highly accom plished music teacher, which was shown by her pupils on that occasion. Alter a few pleasant remarks, Rev. Mr. Stevens presented to Principal Williams a handsome lamp as a token of appreciation of his scholars, and afer a most lovely Quartette the exercises closed, and the universal verdict was that it was a aigmy ucuiwuic xuxu. At a regular meeting of the Vestry of St. Pauls Parish, held on Mondav evening, July 2d. iSSS. the following resr?!ution was adopted : Resolved, that from and after this dafp nn nnp shnll nfrmtttr iu- ;,a -u: r-JL. r t LVJ Lt- 111LI1 L 1:11 V 111 r v iiriri v til St. Pauls, (excepting those already- having relation there) without written consent of the Rector and two mem i bers of the Vestry in consultation, and I that the Sexton of the Church, shall rDe the only person authorized to dig auv givc. Attest, Tuos. Thompson, Secretary of the Vestrv Bro. John, of the Carolinian, says our charges made against J. C. o o Pritchard are untrue, and "everv respectable Democratic paper that published the charge has retracted it, and Judge Avery one ot the can- didates on the Democratic ticket, has is3ued a card fully and entirely vindicating Mr. . Pritchard." The Fisherman & Farmer know9 noth in of Pritchard personally, and gained its information from its ex chancres, and having not seen the card of Judge Avery we published the information as we received it. If the statement is untrue we retract what we have said about Pritchard. PLAN FOR BUILDING THE MUSIC HALL. Edenton, N. C, Jul- 4, 'S3. Mi:. Editof!: You will please publish the following plan for build ing a Music Hall on the Academy property which I wrote off to read at the entertainment last night, but concluded that it was too long to state full then. I propose, by arrangements with Trustees of the Edenton Academy, to build a Music Hall on the Academy lot on Cnurch street during. next fall. The funds Tor building this Hall to be raised a follows : The title to 'he Hall itself to be vested in a Trustee to be appointe i b the Academy Trustees and the custody tnd possession of the Hail for 1 to 10 years to be pledged for the cost of it. rifty shares of stok for ten dollars each, ben ring interest, to be sold to persons willing toadvancethe money, material, or labor necessary to con struct the Hal!. Half the gross proceeds of Enter tainments and all of the renN to ;o to the Trustee to be useci in paying cfl amount of stock and in terest, as fast as received, until slock ha been redeemed and cancelled, balance of proceeds during same time to be used to pay insurance, improvements, and other expenses of the Hali and Entertainments. When .tock is all paid and canceded, rents. &.C., to be used to improve Acadenn property. The above plan contem plates room for five or six hundred seats and only so far finishing the Hall as is positively necessary for occupation and temporary use, leav ing the plastering, ornamental work, shutters, painting. &c. to be done later, if this estimate falls short of necessar outlay, arrangements to be made with stock holders to allow entire proceeds of the first Entertain ments to 0 for putting building in condition for use. ' Bv locating this Hall ou N. V. corner of Academy property, with floor only a few inches from the ground, and with large windows on each side, convenience, safet and comfort will be secured. Respectfully, L. A. Williams. FOR SALS One 40 Saw Brown Cot ton Gin and Condenser; warren ted in excellent condition and Ooi as new will be sold cheap.
