| fifteen wards comprise the fourth Congressional
district, and the five upper wards belong to the
third district. learn there will be quite warm
but friendly contest in the different wards, between
| the friends Of Mr.. Fillmore and those of General
Scott, to eecure majority of the delegates to be
elected, and thus the delegate to represent
| the two districts for their favoritcs. So far the
fourth Congressional district is concerned, there is
no doubt that two thirds Of the Wing voters in
favor of the nomination Of Mr.. Fillmore but most
Of them are but seldom at these primary meet
ngs; consequently the contest will be very close.
| The Wings of Anne Arundel county, after
nominating delegates to the State Convention,
adopted resolutions declaring their determination
TO support for The Presidency who !, not
an acknowledged and avowed friend Of the Com

Much interest is manifested here with regard to
the extent of the damage by the recent flood to
! the Chesapeake and Ohio canal. Parties who pro-
fcss to know something about it, assert that it will
be impossible to put it in order during the entire
season, notwithstanding the statement of MIR.

| On and after Saturday next notes Of a less dc
nomination than five dollars cannot be passed in
this State, under penalty Of ten dollars for each
