writer in your Issue Of the 10th inst,
over the signature of f " has cndeavorcd to
cnlighten the public on the sui. ect of a pro-
posed alteration of the public road from
E"kton to Turkey Point, and in doing so has
placed himself in a dilemma having TWO
horns, upon one, or possibly both of which he
has certainly impacd himself; those horns
are ignorance and falschood.
He speaks of the district Of country, where
the alteration is proposed, as IAN ont of the
way section where there is hardly any
travel
Now tic facts are simply these every foot
of the proposed change is in full view of the
town CT Elkton, and the fMth,st pomt, not
more than one and half miles from the
town limits: so much for it being IAN out Of
the way section" and as it regards tie travel
over the Elk Neck road, it is fully equal to
the travel on the North East and West Not
tingham roads combined. What becomes of
his assertion that there lis hardly any
llaveW upon it.
The plain history of this application to
the commissioners. is as follows. The citizens
Of Elk Neck have received .ess attention from
those having the control Of the public roads
than any other portion Of the county, fac,
notorious to all conveTsaut with such matters
They have borne in silence this injustice and
neglect for many years until the only outlet
they had became literally impossible last
winter, when grain advanced in price mater
tally. several farmers IN the Neck had consld-
erable quantities Of grain on hand, and desired
to avail themselves in the rise in the market
but such was the state of the road in.qucstion,
that it was utterly impossible for them to get
into market. Now what becomes of the
bold assertion of II" E'' that the Elk Neck road
is an excellent roodl'
A year or more ago, the Commissioners of
Cecil county appointed Examiners, to examine
the condition of this road and report what
alterations, and improvements, wee Necessary.
1W0 out OF the three persons thus appointed
are men Of great experience, noted for their
caution, and as large tax payers, would GER
tanly reject any project, likely to involve a
large expenditure Of the public money and
as they resided at distance from the pro.
posed Improvement. had no personal interest
in The matter notwithstanding all this, the
report was unanimous in favor ofsuch alter
alton as that Low asked for. 1t may be pro-
per to state also, that the Examiners, care
fully went over the road and alteration
proposed number of times, giving it a full
and deliberate examination, before their report
was determined upon.
Now the citizens OF Elk Neck desire to be
placed on an equal footing with those of other
sections Of the c. unity : this they have right
lhelesrom, by scribblcrs, who are distinguish
cd for nothing, but - assurance" "tmpMdc"ce"

PANIC AMONG TIE LIQUOR SELLERS The
Grand Jury at the present term has spread
CONSERVATION among the Liquor sellers Of the
county, ahout 50 of whom have been indicted
for selling liquor on the Sabbath day. Quite
a number Of them have paid fine of 500 90
and costs, and Mr. johnson o. the Howard
House. has been fined $50 and costs. There
can be no question abou, the duty Of the
Grand Jury: they are bound to indict such
persons as disobcy the Sunday Law, and the
sooner the violation of the Sabbath, in this
manner is stopt, the better. We hope to see
many succeeding grand juries of the same
kind.

INTERESTING DECISION. The American
Express Company was entrusted with S.
500 by Marshal! & IlSley, Of Milwaukee, to
deliver at the State Bank in Madison, Wis
consin' The express Company made a ten.
der of the money after banking hours, but it
was refused. Daring the night the Express
safe was robbed Of its contents, including the
81, 800. Suit was brought by Marshall &
llisley to recover the money Of the Express
Company, who held that once having made
tender of the money, they were no longer
responsible for it as common carriers, and
that they kept it over night as mere mat
ter of accommodation of plaintiffs. The jury
returned verdict in favor Of the Express.
