Geipeke, the New York agent f.;r our
steamship line. He is here, he in
forms us, in the interest of the com
pany, seeking to make arrangements
looking to a direct line to New York,
in place of the present plan, thus ma
king this port the terminus of the
route, instead of Fernandina. We
hope that oar citizens, as well as the
railroad officials and all concerned,
win give Mr. Gelpcke all the encour
agement he asks, and thus secure for
us even better arrangement than the
present
Scripture Donning.
We hear of one of our merchants,
who has an eye to business ever, adi >p-

exhibition at the Female
Acuitumy '
The Exhibition last week at the
Female Academy, consisting of cha
rades, s mgs, etc., i, passed off very
pleasantly indeed. Wo wore forcibly
struck with the histrionic talent dis
played on the part of several of the
young ladies and little girts, too. All
seemed to enter into the performances
with much zest, although the audience
was v.iry small, owing, we presume,'
to the scarcity of greenbacks. We
were pleased to note the entire ab-
s< nee of anything like the disord r
that characterized the entertainment
of the wot k previous, A man with a

Our people turned out en m isse last
Wednesday night to witness the mar
riage ceremony in the new Episcopal
Church. The room was well filled
some time before the bridal party
made their appearance, all eager to
catch the first glimpse of the happy
pair. The entrance of the bride’s
mother, leaning upon the arm of her
youngest boy, was the signal for all
eyes to be turned to the door, where
was seen, coming up the spacious
aisle, the bridesmaid' and grooms
man, closely followed by Mr. Wing
field and Miss Gowan. The marriage
ceremony was performed by Rev*
Mr. Boone, according to the usage of
the Episcopal Church, and was indeed
quite interesting. No doubt many of
t .0 o’der ones present ran back their
memories to the days of their nuptial
vows, and brought to mind many
pleasing events connected therewith.
The ceremony over, the happy pair,
with a few relatives und friends, re
paired to the home of the bride, where
a few hours were spent in t iep.3 1 ]
festivities of such an occasion. The
newly married couple bade adieu to
all at two o'clock, and took the cars
for Griffin. They carry with them
the good wishes of many warm
friends. We omitted mentioning in
its proper place that the church was
very handsomely decorated with flow
ers for the occasion.

indeed in our city, . Naught, save an
unusual supply of melons, gave evi
