THE CECIL WING.
ELKTON, MD, MARCH 90, 1852.
To the Readers of Ths Cecil Wing.

newspaper. Matters of business grow
ing out of the change, which has been
suddenly determined upon, so crowd us
that we have not time to speak to our
friends on the occasion of parting, as we
could desire. But We still retain the
half of the paper, and the position of its
senior editor, and thas, though we may
but seldom speaS to them, communica-
ton is not totally cut off between US.
sSe feel bound to the readers, CORES
pondens and friends Of The Wing by
strong ties of universal sympathy. In
its earlier days IT had to encounter strong
gales and rough seas; its friends stood
firmly by it till it has gained mild and
propitious waters and speeds on before
prosperous breezes.
I'm reslgnlng the helm MALAY to other
hands we are moved by strong regrets,
but the expressions dae TO the time we
are forced TO defer.
From siis time the paper will be un-
der the management of Mr.. William J.
Jones, young gentleman of fine abili-
lies, who will be able to conduct it, we
have no doubt, TO the satisfaction of its
readers. We bespeak for him their in
diligence until he becomes fixed in his
place. Osr ownership ofthe paper con-
tinues undivided until the 10Th dav of
April next. On and after that time, till
some other arrangement is made, it will
be published by Mr.. Jones and us, each
having equa! interest. Other notices in
relation to the business ofthe paper will
be published hereafter.
We remove to Baltimore to take
h'rge of"1Ae Baltimore Daily .News,"
a field which ensures to us far more toll
and anx7ety; but which promises greater
rewards. kis emphaticaily euspaper,
and advantage win be taken of all the
means of obtaining early information to
ensure it to deserve that title. Besides,
it is firmly Wing in its politics, and it
Us hoped to make it maintain character
and influence in the city and the State.
III any OF our friends wish city paper
ave would be happy to has e shem take it.
FARMERS NoTlcE, THAT change has
been made in the arrangement Of the
"tarmer's Steam Accommodation
Line" See advertising columns.
CHURCH NorIcE.-We are requested
to state that there will be preaching in
the the Methodist Church, by Rev. T.
S. Thomas, Oh Sunday, at half past 10
"A. NJ, and half past in the evening.
CoRoNERs lNQUEsT.-An inquest was
held on Thursday last, upon the body
of negro, named Perry Blake, found
dead OH the Blue Ball road, about half
mile from Eikton. The jury render
ed verdict of death from iatemperance
and exposure. The storm on the night
previous was very severe.
The CLAY MEDAL.-It will be seen
by an item in another column, that the
gold medal recently presented to Mr..
Clay, by his personal and political
friends in New York, has been stolen.
The last accounts give no tidings of its
recovery.
We happen just now to think of the
remark made by Mr.. Clay, at the time
of its presentation. We give his own
words:
1'Who can tell but, fifty or hundred
years hence, some Goth may get hold
of this and say the nose ofthis old dead
fellow would serve TO buy me great
many things that | want, and may car
ry it off,
He little thought the Goth was so
near-and ruder even than a Goth must
he have been, who would thus far forget
his position as an American, and fitch
the tribute of grateful friends to the
champion of their dearest rights.
APPOINTMENT OF U. s. DIsrRrr
JUDGE.-We learn that The President of
the United States yesterday nominated
to the Senate the Hon. John Glenn, of
this city, to fill the vacancy in the U.
S. District Judgeship for the Maryland
District, caused by the death OF the Hon.
Judge Heath, short time since. His
father, the late Elias Glenn, filled the
same Judgeship some seventeen years
ago. On resigning which, Judge
Heath was elevated TO the station.
