DISTRESSING CASES OF SMALL Pox.-
We learn from the Upper Marlborough Ga
zette of Friday last, that man having the
small pox in its most violent form, and sup
posed to be idiotic Sr insane, found his way
to that county few days since. He re-
NAMED in the village of Piscataway short
time, and when he left that place, he wan
dered about for several days and nights,
without finding shelter. lie has but one leg,
and his suferings must have been extreme.
He was fortunately discovered by DR.. John
H. Bayne, and carried in the doctors cart,
to the hospital near Washington.
We learn from the Patriot of Saturday
last, that a man named Cook, resident of
Baltimore, left his home some time ago in
a state of mental arrangement, caused by
suffering from the small pox, with which he
was dreadfully afflicted. He escaped in the
night, and has not been heard of since by
his friends, who fear that he has met an I'M
timely end.

We have received the February No. OF
the American Farmer, which contains many
interesting agricultural articles. The editor
speaks of his having congratulated his bre-
thren of the Plough, in his last number,
upon the cheering prospects of good prices
for the surplus products of their grain crops,
and regrets that, since the more recent news
from Europe, cloud has come over the
spirit of his dream. But adds: "From the
best views we have been able to arrive at,
we are inclined to the belief, that as the
first rapid advance was without any lust
so is the present depression with
out reasonable cause, as we believe still that
the crops in Europe, both of bread stufs
and potatoes, are greatly below the demands
of consumption, and that the indisposition
to buy in England-the inactivity in the
market-arises out of the uncertainty ex-
listing there as to the action of the Govern
ment with regard toIthe Corn Laws. If we
be right in this suggestion, we may be per-
mitted to express the opinion that there is
every prospect that those who have grain
to sell will find good market and fair
prices for it before the occurrence of ano-
Their harvest"

The following are the particulars imme-
diately following the duel between Mr..
Jones and DR.. Johnson, as given by cor
respondent of the Richmond Enquirer, and
are believed TO be correct:
After the parties concerned in the late
fatal duel were taken to Upper Marlborough,
at the request of the magistrates, who had
refused to take bail, Judge of the Superior
Court of the State re-examined the case, and
decided that, as killing in a duel was not
capital offence, according to the laws of
Maryland, the parties under arrest were en-
titled to be admitted to bail; which was
rendered and accepted, and they we're dis
charged. The surgeons were discharged
without bail on the first examination by
magistrates, as there was no law to hold
them. The second of the surviving COM
Blatant was arrested without sufficient au-
thority. for there was no affidavit on which
to base the warrant under which he was
taken. And, after his discharge, while an
affidavit and new warrent were being pre-
pared on which to arrest him again, he made
his escape. Last night (the I'd instantly the
parties returned to Elizabeth city, North
Carolina, where they reside, and the corpse
Of DR.. Johnson was at the same time taken
to his friends.

The following is a synopsis of the bill
reported by Mr.. Cook, of Queen AIMS coun-
ty, Chairman Of the Committee on Colored
Population of the House, which we believe
has passed both branches of the Legislature
entitled, "A supplement to an act relating
to free negroes and slaves, passed Deem
Der session, 1881" In the original bill il
is made lawful for free negroes or slaves to
attend all meetings intended for religious
purposes, upon condition said meeting be
conducted by white licensed or ordained
preacher, or some respectable white person.
This supplement repeats so much of that
bill as may be construed into authorizing
the holding of negro camp meetings, as
we'll as all other outdoor meetings, and
provides that the owner of the land upon
which any such meeting is held, with his
knowledge and consent, shall be amenable
to fine of one hundred dollars.
And further, that all meetings of negroes
for religious purposes, except those held at
regular and appointed places of worship,
are unlawful; and that the owner of the
house where any such meeting may be
held, shall be subject to like fine of one
hundred dollars.

We received per last mail an "Extra''
from the office of the Baltimore Visiter.
purporting to be addressed to the lovers of
truth and freedom. The author of this adj
dress our old friend the Doctor proclaims
to the world-meaning probably that por-
ton of it extending from Pennsylvania to
Canada-that crisis has arrived in his pub
lie life. No doubt he wishes so, and is
laboring to make his cohorts at the North
believe such to be the case. We are of the
opinion that the i" Visiter'' has for some
time had in view, or has been anxious to
bring about, something of this nature; and
now that he has possibly obtained this long
hoped-for "crisis," we would advise him to
take care lest it may prove to his sorrow.
In Gods name, does he suppose for an in
slant that the citizens of Maryland are to
have their lives and property endangered
and not seek redress upon its author? We
would advise the "Visiter" that discretion
in his case, may prove the better part of va
lor. If he is colleague of Torry's, he
may, in the nature of things, share SINH
lar fate with that dump of divinity" And
why too, we should like to know, does he
wish to drag certain democratic paper
into the meshes of his memorial" as he
calls it, by laying it before the public? Per
haps as shield to favor his designs. If al
individual wishes to defend his "honor,'
would he fora momentreckon the ''expense'
attending upon his doing SO? We think not
But, possibly, the "Visiter" may imagin,
himself Sampson in the temple of tn
Philistines, and seeks but to destroy some O
his enemies in dying effort
