BALTIMORE, Aug. l5 1876.
Hot Weather The Salisbury Bank-Money Lost,
aud partly Rsfmned-7hs Last 81. Mary's Coun-
fy Oufrage-Afarkefs, Stock Board, &C.
The dog star is raging in this city to an extent
unprecedented by the previous warm spells The
thermometer yesterday stood at 81 degrees, and
this morning at 6 o'clock find the mercury ra pd-
ly approaching 80, which leads to the expectation
ofquite ferecious weather at midday.
The famous mushroom Bank of Salisbury Md,
which was galvanized by some New York brokers
with dubious checks, has had a brief existence
official notice being given that it has stopped pay
ment. The intention, doubtless, wasito force It's
notes into circulation, like the defunct bank of
Millingon was managed, but they were evidently
not as good managers in financial affairs as the
directors OF the former concern. The location was
well chosen, undoubtedly, as the people of Sails
bury are the very upper crust of honor, virtue and
good faith, and genuine note from that town
would pass in Baltimore on a par with our own
city notes.
On Thursday, one of the clerks IN the store of
Messrs Jones, Bunneston Co., either lost or
had stolen from his pocket book, as he passed
from the bank TO the store, number of bank
notes, amounting to Sl,750. Among the notes
was one OF the denomination of Sl0O0,-this l
learn, was yesterday returned to the firm through
the post office whoever had it, becoming aware
doubtless, that 1t could not be passed without
great danger of detection.
The fatal afiray, which mentioned as having
occurred IN st. Mary's county, in which William
II. Dunkinson, Esq, late member of the House
OF Delegates, was so brutally murdered, turns out
to be more outrageous case than was at first
supposed 1t has been since ascer,aned that Mr..
Dunklnson was wholly innocent of the charge
brought against him. Of being the father of an IL
legitimate child by widowed sister of the two
Kinks, who were the ringieaders of the outrage
Ii seems that the four chivarous young men, two
brothers and two brothers-in-law of the frai wi
dow, proceeded to cowhide Dunkinson without
judge or jury, and finally capped the climax by
ripping his stomach open, and causing his death
in few hours.
