praise for the energy and zeal they
have displayed in the matter of ar
ranging for the Jeff Davis reception.
Honor to tbem.
"What a lovely city," said several
strangers in our hearing yesterday,
and then some of them added, "If
the sidewalks were not so wretchedly
bad this would be the queen of the
South, but I have passed over some
that seem wholly neglected." And
we dare not deny it.
It was a noticeable feature in the
ceremonies yesterday, that there was
a more general turnout of what are
known strictly as working men than
has ever been known on a similar oc
casion here. This is evidence of the
great interest manifested by all
classes.

mittee sent by Mrs J B Burwell,
President of the North Carolina An
tiquity Society, requesting that the
flags used by the little girls on the

society. Mr John W Brown who bad

Overhanging Bushes.

after the bushes and limbs along the
side walks in our cit t that are in the
way of nil who are passing. In the day
time one can tase the street ana avoid
them, but at nipht in the sbne of
moonlight, there is danger of forget
ting the hedgerows and before yon
know it, your face is all among the
bushes. It sometimes hapoens that
a stranger wanders along these high
ways and he is of course taken in,
Whose business is it to look after these
things?
