GEORGETOWN July %, 1853.
DEATH from an Acc;dem.-I regret to learn
that the son of Mr. S. Croply, who was in
jured at the mill of Messrs. Boyce & Taylor,
died on Saturday from the effects of his
wounds.
Arrest for BMrglary.-JuStice Reaycr is
sued, on Saturday evening. a warrant for the
arrest of a yellow boy by the name of Grant,
charged with entering the store of C. Crusoe
by means of false keys, and robbing it of q
large quantity of horse feed and meal Up
to this morning he has not been arrested.
THrifttess Management Of PrOpety.-We
were not q little surprised while strolling
through our town on Saturday, to discover %
large amount of property that ought to be
valuable to its owners, lying apparently in an
unproductive state The property to which we
have reference is situated between High
street and the Aqucduct and Water street
and the Canal. Upon it there are number
old dilapidated buildings, many of which
have the appearance Of being built soon after
Georgetown was first settled, and are filled
with occupants of such a variety of colors,
characters and occupations, that it would re-
quire more than a human mind to describe
them correctly; and VIC doubt very much
whether the revenue arising from it, in its
present condition, is sufficient to meet the cor
poration tax and insurance. Some of these
buildings are large, being once used as ware
houses by the merchants Of our town in It's
palmiest days. We must say, with all due
Difference to the opinions of the owners, that
they are standing very much in their own
light, and greatly annoying many other per
sons by leavingit in its present condition.
THE Counciis.-But little business Of any
moment was transacted by our Town Councils
on Friday night. The lobby members, we
have no doubt were pleased to hear one of the
leading members of the Council declare his
intention to place himself, like tiger, at the
door of the Corporation treasury, and resist to
the last every unnecessary expenditure of its
money. From two items gof expenditure
amounting to $1,000, which VIC heard an
nounced, we think it would have been we'll

guarded either by tiger, Turkey, or some
other kind of animal

parting in considerable numbers, laden with
coal, grain, flour. &c.

Baltimore Correspondence.

BALTIMORE, July lilo z. II.
Here in Baltimore, to say nothing Of other
cities, we are blessed with an abundance of
magnificent churches. All admire their arclli >
teetural beauty, and we justly estimate then. as
fitting ornaments to the city There arc.
doubtless, churches enough to hold every
living soul at one time You will begin to
conjecture-What is my moral -? reply that
although VIC are blessed with these cdifccs of
public worship, yet not one half of our ropu-
lation, though perhaps sinking in iniquity and
sin: have the privilege OF attending them The
reader may ask, why? 1 answer; simply. be-
cause fashion and other circumstances have
made wealth requisite to gain admttance
An elegant church is built, and unless the
poor sinner be able topurchase velvet-cush-
Toned pew at one thousand to fifteen hundred
dollars, then pay thereafter sixty to one hun
dred dollars per annum rent for it, he, she, or
they must be outsiders. To this cause alone
may be attributed the lamentable fact that
hundreds-yes, thousands upon thousands do
not go to church. The naked truth is, they
are too poor. What commentary upon
fashion, pride and aristocracy, and how
striking the contrast with patriarchial days.
Will some Of your reverend readers give at
tention to this subject! My sermon is fin
ished
The recent movement of the German adopt
cd citizens, in uniting to vindicate their own
political rights, has opened field for dis-
cussion. They have assumed rather 4 dcta-
torial position and one which, if carried out
as general principle, might cycntuate in
evil. They seem to forget that they are Amer
leans by adoption, and have come among us to
take our institutions rs they arc-that they
should conform to ours and not we to their no.
tions. VIM. P. Preston, candidate for Con
gross, has taken correct view of this matter
No man should, nor will any pure sagacious
patriot, truckle to these foreign extraneous
combinations. They must be taught that the
balance ofpower does not rest with them, and
that candidates for Office, of all parties, are
as Independent of them as of any other par
ticular class Of citizens.
r. The adviccs by the Arctic, being adverse to
Fbreadstutfs, will doubtless cause further de-
cline in -four tomorrow. The stock on hand,
however. is so very small that the value can
not be said to depend upon extraneous causes.
Indeed, any very considerable quantity could
not be had at any prics for it is not here to
