PROGRESS OF MoBIsM.

There is in Hartford county, Maryland, an anti
tax party, similar to the anii-rent party in New
York. The collector of the taxes has lately been
resisted in the performance of his DUTY. The mob
collected to prevent the sale Of certain property,
and young man who bid for it was rushed upon
with cries of skill him." skill him." He was
with great difficulty rescued. The collector was
considerably injured. The Sheriff proved utterly
inefficient. Some of the leaders of the mob were
foreigners, and many ofthe disorderly persons are
men who pay no taxes. The above statement is
condensed FROM the Baltimore Clipper.

NEWS FROM THE MEDITERRANEAN.
Extract of Letter, dated


TRIESTE, Both October, 1914.
We have news Of the capture Of an extraordi-
narily large and wel-equipped piratcal barque,
into Trieste, and the disclosures the hands on
board made to their captors were beyond concep-
ton. Their confessions are not fully known, but
this much Is true THE barque has been cruising
practically, for the last two years, and in that
time there have been no less than 900 murders
committed by the crew, and ten chips, three
barques, one brig, and eleven schooners taken and
plundered by her. The amount of treasure found
on board the vessel was immense. She is an
English built vessel, with tall raking masts, and
of about 700tons burthen, very sharp and deep.

The Richmond correspondent of the Lynch
burg Virgnian, says
1t is currently rumored here, and I believe
there is no doubt of the fact, that the Balti-
more and Ohio Rail Road Company, (Which
has now an application pending before the
Legislature for the enactment of law allow
ing it the right Of s0ay through Virginia, TO
some eligible point on the Ohio river,) has
purchased the Winchester Rail Road, and that
the contract has been ratified by the Board of
Public Works This contract must however,
! imagine, receive the sanction of the Legisla-
ture in order to give it validity and ] very
much doubt, from the temper in which have
heard the matter spoken of by some members,
remote from the Winchester road, whether
that sanction will be given. The inpolicy of
giving to powerful and grasping foreign cor
poratlon the control of an important improve
ment within the State, which, to great extent,
occupies position of rivalry towards the
other lines, would seem not to admit of a
doubt but at present do not know enough
OF the character or the bearing of this partic-
ular transaction 10 judge either of its proprie-
ty, or of its immediate or remote probable eff
fects. The Baltimore Company agrees to
pay the debts of the Winchester Road. a.
