ST, THOMAs,s PARISH SCHOOL.

lyE1HE Reverend Gentlemen in charge OF st.
4 Thomas's Church and Parish have great
pleasure in announcing that this School Will open
on the FIRST TUESDAY AFTER EASTER, the 18th
instant.
The want of such School has been long and
keeny felt in Charles county. and it is hoped, that
the efforts now made to meet the eXigency Will be
grateful to parents and not Improbable to the
youth of the Parish and neighborhood.
/ The object sought to be attained is merely to
prepare boys for College, by imparting the ele-
mentary knowledge requisite to enable them to
begin their classical studies with advantage. For
that purpose persons of mature experience and
competent ability have been provided
The School will consist of boarders and day
scholars. The yearly term of tuition will en-
brace ten months.
The terms for Board and Tuition are 500; for
day scholars, $50. or So month.
As to the system of discipline to be pursued, II
may suffice to state, that as the Directors and
Teachers have devoted themselves to tins good
work only through conscientious motives, every
care shall be taken of the health, happiness and
moral well-being of the Pupils, that fatherly
sense of duty can suggest.

THE MARKETS..
BALTIMORE, April 10, 1885,

BALTIMORE, April III, 1894.
GnA1N.-The foreign news received on Satur-
day evening by the Europa, although Of decided
ly unfavorable character for breadstuffs, has had
little or no influence on the Grain market, and
prices exhibit very little change. At the Corn
and Flour Exchange this morning the offerings Of
both Wheat and Corn larger than for some
days. and we note far demand.
Uheat-Thc receipts Of Wheat were about
5000 bushels, and some 5000 or 1000 bushels were
sold at 10 It's cts. for fair to prime reds. and
IFS $50 cts. for fair to prime whites. Some
samples Of prime white Wheat were held at 1876
cts, but no sales were made at that figure.
Colm.-About 16 900 bushels of Corn were at
market. We note sales of yellow at "A cts. and
of white at 20 y cts, the market closing at IL
cts. for white.
Oats-Sales of Maryland at 4S cents per bushel.
From the American of Saturday, the 8th.]
ToBAcco-There is good disposition to pur-
chase Maryland Tobacco, and the small receipts
of the crop are taken promptly by Shippers
The transactions, however. are quite moderate,
though they comprise nearly all the receipts. we
continue to quote
Common to good ordinary Maryland, S. 25aS6;
middling, S5as62 % good to fine brown sc. 5OaS7;
and fine S7aS9.
The small stock of Ohio which has been accu-
muIating for some time past, was mostly sold this
week, and the market is now nearly or quite bare
The sales comprise about 800 hhds., generally Of
common quality.
The letters lately received from Germany speak
quite discouragngly Of the prospects in the CONT
mental markets, where it is apprehenjed, business
will be greatly interfered with by the warlke ope-
rations now in progress. Some orders heretofore
sent hither have been withdrawn, and it is feared
that the demand which was anticipated for the
coming crop this spring will not be very brisk
The limited receipts and the known shortness of
the Ohio crop will, no doubt keep prices from de-
clning much. 1t is to be remarked, however,
have been felt in our market. The disposition to
purchase is greater this week than last, and ifthe
market was well supplied, no doubt large bust
ness would be done. The receipts at the close of
the week are larger than heretofore, but are not
included in this weeks amount OF Inspections.
The inspections of the week comprise 23l hhds.
MARYLAND: l76 hhds. Ohio, and 152 hhds Kentucky
total $50 hhds.

NEGATIVE ELECTRIC FLUID.-This extraordi-
nary remedy for fever, is positive substitute for
Quinine IN all febrlle affections, and has none of
its bad effects. 1t has been thoroughly tested by
the most eminent Physicians of Paris, in their eX-
tensive practice in the Hospitals, by order of the
French Government, and by great number of
Physicians and professional men in the United
States, with complete success. 1t is not a COM
pound nostrum, but an entire new article in Ma

remedies for ChiIls and Fever, as well as all fe-
briIe affections. See advertisement in another
