About two th usand ippea's have been made, aud most of these eases have to be considered’ de nora and the property re- examined. Out of about eight hundred cases of appeal where the property has been re- examined, allowances were conceded, and in some instances more than was asked for. One case in point:—A private school house was assessed at #1200). An apbeal was taken, the owner asking a reduction to $% On a re-examination of the premises assessors reduced the valuation to The assessments have generally been below the old asxessments, and in very few cases have they been increase: The assessors wil! now proceed to re-examine property where appeals have been made made untilall shali have been disposed of.

The only way for disaffected persons to get satis. faction is to ask Congress to order another assessment, and even then they may not get the satisfaction desired.

Towards evening the sky became overcast with clouds, and some litte rain fell—just enough to render It necessary to dispease wiih services at the stand, as the boards were damp. These services were to have been coa- ducted by Rev. Oliver Cox, formerly of Western Maryland College, but now of h. ington. Instead of services at the s and Player and experience meetings were held in several of the tents, Revs. J. R. Nichois, KR. Seott Norris and others conducting them. ‘These meetings were quite spirited, and they were kept up till nearly 10 v'clock. Before this hour the clouds had disappeared and the Stars shone out brightly, cheering eyerybody on the grounds. This morning the day opened brightly, and there was a fuir attendauce at the early prayer iz, conducted by Rev, Mr. Sieara. It is apparent that the people are getting more religiously inclined, for instead of “* My Grandfather's Clock ” being the favorite camp song, familiar hymns are more frequently sung by the young men, and the old familiar hymns are more enjoyed than some of the mere elaborate chureh music.

Rev. Dr. Sewall was then on the cir- which at that time had over a dozen charges init, extending from above the Reiay House to Bladensburg, aud he meeting Payne heard complaint. Dr. Sewall asked. “Weil, brother, what is your name?” and the name Payne being given, remarked, “Tuat is y appropriate name, brother, ufter in your condition of mind.” Sub- sequently the Subject was referred to arbiura- tors, who, after hearing both sides, awarded Payne $2 as damages.

Vining Bowers, the well-knowa co- median, did in New York on Sunday morning last, after a lingering illness of consump‘ion. Mr. Bowers was born in Philadelphia, April 23, nd was a younger broiher of the iate D. P. Bowers, whose widow is the well-known. actres When only a young lad Mr. Bowers began his profession at the pottom of the lad- der as a call boy at the Chestnut-street Thea- ter, Philadelphia. Iu 1349 Mr. Bowers pl. ty d seeond low comedy at Barnum’s Museum,then played three suc ve seasons in Washing ton, and in 1855 joined the Walnut street The- ater company, in Philadelphia. Heafterwards Played a successful starring engagement in the western cities, making a hit as Panl Pry and Jem Baggs. He then played for four years in New Orleans, where he was a great favorite, and during the war se- cured a lease of the Variety Theater in that city, where he made mone Afterwards he supported Lotta, playing Dick Swiveiler to ter Little Nell. Some six years ago he left Wash- ingion to play an engagement at Toron:o, aud the sudden change to a cold climate gave him a severe cold. This cold developed into a lung disease which the physicians could not eure. From this he gradually fell into cousump.ion, and had several hemorrhages, but his indomi- table will made him continue to act even when suffering severely. His sufferings were in- tense, and on Saturday evening an internal hemorrhage set in, from which he died on Sunday morning. Among the best parts that Mr. Bowers has played before New York audiences were Asa Trenchard to Southern’s Dundreary, Major De Boots in “ Everybody's Friend,” and Green Jones in the “ Ticket-of- Leave Man.” DROWNED IN THE SURF.—Oa Sunday even- ing, about 8 o'clock, a body was seen floating in the water by a swimmer in front of Cable's, on Coney Island, aud upon examination it was found that the man was Charles Fraucis, of Brooklyn.

B. Clark, at LaGrange last Wednesday. On his person Were found a pawn ticket and four cartridges. The pawn ticket called for a five-barreied pis- tol, and, as it was ‘‘soaked” on Thursday, it looks very much as if Petre committed the deed. In his trunk were found several pictures of Mrs. Clark, anda couple of envelopes ad- dressed to her. She is known to have visited him at his sister's house, and it is alleged she frequently came to town to see him since his discharge. He denies having commiited the deed, and says there was vever any criminal intimacy between Mrs. Clark and himself. The whole affair looks very mysterious, and it is doubtful if it will be cleared UP for som= time. The doctors failed to find the bullet, and the evidence against St. Petre is only circum stantial. eA New York woman says: ‘* Were it not for the self-sacrificing wo:nen of the land who marry and support so miny men, the Sui ber of tramps would be largely increas. ed. 4%-The Chicago Times says that in surf ee doesn’t count for as much as gah.” 4&#-A constant watch is kept over Minnie Warren’s praye to prevent its desecration by grave robbers. 4&e-At Memphis they have a twelve. pounder Parrot gun mounted to stop all blockade-run- bing steamboats from the fever infected dis- triets below. 4%-The Austrian Major-General Count Ra. detzky, only son of the deceased marshal o: that name, shot himself through the head late ly at Giert, and died soon after. No cause is assigned for the act. 4&a-At Rochester ville, 2 suburb of Ottawa Ont., forty young men went to Mrs. Pelle tier’s house for a dance.
