says that the latest letters received at the
State Department, from the American
Minister at Grenada, Mr.. Bowlin, and from
our Consul at Panama, Mr.. Corwine, give
rather peaceful phase of our trouble with
the Grenadians. Mr.. Bowlin's letter, da-

new administration is liberal and just; and
he expresses the opinion that an amicable

How TO SELECT FLoUR.-1. Look at
its color, if it is white, with slightly yel-
lowish or straw w-colored tint it is good
sign. If it is very white with blush
cast, or with black specks in it. the flour
is not good. g,
Q. Examine its ddhesiveness wet and
knead a little oft between the fingers; if
it works dry, and elastic, it is good; if it
works soft and sticky, it is poor. Flour
made from spring wheat, is likely to be
sticky.
8. Throw little lump of the dry flour
against dry smooth, perpendicular sur
face; if it adheres in lump, the flour has
life in it; if it falls like powder, it is bad.

it retains the shape given it by the pressure

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany have been forced into conflict with
a portion of their employees. For the Sc
curity of valuable freights the Company
adopted the plan in use on several New
York roads, of sealing their car DOORS
At this some of the men took umbrage,
and instead of making proper represen-
tation of their views to the Company, com
mitted the fatal error of appealing to brute
force, and threatened to stop, and didstop,
one or more trains. The strikers were
discharged. On the 1st inst, four freight
trains started out in charge ofarmed guards.
All the trains were mobbed near Ellicott's
Mills by the rioters. Some thirty musket
shots were fired from the cars. Two riot
ers were wounded. One train got through
the others were uncoupled by the riot
ers, and had to return to the city.
