Mr.. WETHEREp.-The Wing cand-
date for Congress was here on Thursday
and Thursday night, and made a de-
cta'diy favorable impression among the
voters of Elkton.
/ ACCIDENT We regret to learn that
George r. Howard Esq, was thrown
from his carriage, near his farm in the
second district and was severely though
not dangerously hurt.
/ L. We have from the Clerk to the
Commissioners, and partly in type, the
annual statement for publication, of the
amount of taxes and expenditures for
the present year. 1t came too late for
this week but will appear next.
, 1.-THE following Resolution was
unanimously adopted at the District
meeting at North East:
Resoired, That the wings of the 9Th
Election district, assembled this day in
primary meeting, heartily approve tof
and resolve to support the nomination
of Hon. K. |. Bowie, for Governor.
! 1--WE call attention to the farm in
Kent county, advertised in our columns
to-day by G, w. p. Smith, Esq. 1t is
stated to us to be very desirable pro-
perty. The location is very healthy;
there has been but one death on the
premises for forty years-that of form
er owner, at very advanced age. Mari
is said to be found on it in considerable
quantities.
| The DEMoCR ATTIC MEETI
been absent at the Havre de Grace Con-
vrnton on Tuesday, We have to regret
not having heard the speeches OF the
Democratic candidates on that day, par
ticularly that of Dr.. Shower, which we
are told was a rich specimen. Our
readers, however, will be pleased to hear
, that we have the promise OF an accurate
report, which though late, will still be
"bettcr late than never.'
The DIsTRIcT NoMINArIoys.-W e
publish to-day a list of the nomination S
in the several districts, for Supervisor,
Justices of the Peace and ConstabIes, SO
far as we have been able to ascertain
them. In cases where they are incor.
rect or incomplete we hope we may be
Informed by some Of our wing friends
in the Districts where the error or
omission occurs. They appear to be,
generally, very good Nominations, and
We doubt not, many Of them will be
successful.
THE LocoFoco TlcKET.-The loco
ioco county convention on Tuesday last
made the following nominations:
For Sheriff; Robert VI. WaImsev.
For House of Delegates; Richard J.
Foard, Richard l.. Thomas and Milton
Y. Kidd.
For County Commissioners; Griffith
NJ. Eldridge, Greenbury Purnell, Je-
hoIakim Brickley, (smth.)
For Surveyor; - Brokaw.
ia portion of that ticket, probably
the larger part of it, is doomed to GER
tain defeat.
ANOTHER BRANcH.-The P. W. & 3.
Railroad Company have had surveys
made between Elkton and Park esburg,
with view Of connecting their road
with the Philadelphia and Columbia
road.--lt is said this branch, if construct
ed, will commence at Elkton, pass
through or near New London, and tel
inmate at Parkesburg, which place is
about forty miles from Philadelphia.
We presume that this movement has
been caused by the effort to get stock
taken in the proposed central road from
Philadelphia to Baltimore.
Wilmington Republican.
MAIL Route AGENT.-The Post mas
ter General has appointed Mr.. Edward
Ferry, of Baltimore, route agent on the
line between Washington and Phiadel-
phia, in the place of Mr.. VIM. II. Cotton
