EXCITEMENT AT LAYToYsyILLE.-On Wednes-
day last, almost the entire population of the
country around Laytonsville met there, at an
/ early hour, to adopt measures to rid the com
munity of Appleby, whom they had given
notice to leave the county by that day, and
who had so far dsregarded their notice.
Appleby was armed for self defence, but so
numerous and determined were those who had
ordered him to leave, that he became alarmed,
and attempted to escape unnoticed from his
house; but he was pursued, overtaken, and,
when tied, escorted beyond The limits of Mont
gonery, and told if he was ever caught again
in the county, a severe punishment would be
dealt him.
man named Linthcum, who has been for
some time suspected of giving aid and COM
fort" to Leamon, Appleby & Co., was heard
TO utter some threatening language against a
gentleman prominent in the removal of APP
pcby, was also notified to leave the county
within two weeks. He has promised to do SO.
Other persons suspected of being sympathis-
ers with this lawless and corrupt band, are
being closely watched, and may have to fol-
low their brethren in crime beyond the con-
fines of Montgomery county.
There are occasions when statute law fails
to meet the exigency Of the times, and the law
of self-preservation prompts mea to act 9TH
erwise than at first sight seems right and
proper, yet meets the appreciation Of every
good and moral man in the community
This we think one of those cases, and we
say God speed them in the work they have
so nobly begun.

NEGRO MEETING DISPERSED .-On Sunday last,
there was an immense concourse of negroes,
numbering some twelve or fifteen hundred,
at Sharp Street " Westinghouse, situated
near Sandy Spring, in this county, profess
edIy for religious worship. They gathered
there from every portion Of this county, from
Howard county, and from Baltimore city and
the District Of Columbia. Meetings of this
kind were, at one time quite frequent in this
county, and were not then regarded with
much disfavor; but the corrupting influen-
ceg Of abolitionists and negro-stealers have
been so dangerous to the slave interest Of our
county, that negro meetings for any purpose,
arc exceedingly distasteful, and, indeed, are
disapproved Of by almost every body. Ac-
cordingly, when it was known to Deputy
Sherifs yHRs, Of this town, and HIGGins, Of
Berry's district, that this meeting was being
held, they, with commendable promptness
summoned posse and made their appearance
upon the ground, and with but little difficult
ty dispersed the greater part 81 those assem-
bled. Some were slow to leave, and one,
armed with a revolver and little drunk,
"showed fight" but.was overpowered and
committed to our Jail in the afternoon.
We hope there will not be another effort
made to hold similar meeting at that place,
for we are quite sure that our citizens have
determined to break up all shca gatherings in
the future, let the consequences be what they
may

TIE PENNSYLVANIA DOUGLAS CONVENTION
OF this body, which the Harrisburg Patriot
and Union calls convention called for the
purpose Of asserting the superior power of
Mr.. Miles Taylor's Washington committee
over the democratic State organization, the
same paper further remarks:
" The convention was, in every sense of the
word, failure. The people could not be per-
suaded to come here and engage in a factious
attempt to destroy the unity of the demo-
cratic party. 1t was composed of politicians,
old stagers, disappointed office-hunters, and
men of bad political records. From some un-
accountable circumstance Forney failed to
be present, and his absence was seriously felt
in the lack of enthusiasm. But no doubt he
will do his part in the Press by representing
the convention as a tremendous outpouring
of the people. When we see the resolutions
we will have something more to say about
this attempt to usurp the democratic organi-
cation Of the State

SENATOR WIGFALL.-The Yicksburg Sun
announces the passage of Senator Wigfall
through Mississippi, ON his way to Texas, to
fight against Houston. The Sun adds:
% He was detained here for several hours,
and many of our citizens had the pleasure of
making his acquaintance. lie informed us
that Tennessee, the home of Mr.. Bell, will go
for the Breckenridge ticket, against the COM
bned opposition, by an overwhelming ma
jority. He was just from that State, and of
course was not speaking at random. lie is
sanguine of the election Of Breckenridge and
Lane by the people. lie would have made a
speech here but for his earnest desire to get
home and assist in redeeming Texas"

DRouGHr.-We regret to hear, from every
portion of our county, the most distressing
accounts of the long continued drought
Streams arc failing-springs ceasing to flow
pasture fields no longer affording grass for
live stock-corn and potatoes have ceased to
grow, and fears are entertained that there
will be failure in those crops-gardens are
parched and dry-indeed, every thing vegeta-
BILE, shows the blightning effects of the drought,
and yet no signs of rain.

MIssoURI.-Senator Green, ofMissouri, spoke
at Independence on the goth ultimo. In dis
cussing the relative claims of Breckenridge
and Douglas, he contended |. That Douglas
had not been regularly nominated; and, 2.
That if he was, he was unsound as a Demo-
crat, and unfriendly to the South. Mr.. Green
added Douglas only received 1873 votes,
when 202 were necessary and when it was
moved by Gen Clark to make it unanimous,
he had been " creditaJly informed that there
were some teenty members agho did not rote
and as there were but 2l2 delegates in the
Convention at the time, the twenty refusing
TO vote defeated the legality Of the nomina-
ton.

A letter from Smithville Tenn, says
:" the political excitement is getting very high
in Tennessee just now. Breckenridge and
Lane will carry Tennessee by 20, 900 to 25,-
900 votes. There never has been such enthu-
siasm manifested for any candidates as there
is for Breckenridge and Lane. A great many
of the opposition are deserving Bell and com
ing to the support of Breckenridge and Lane.

REPAIRS OF THE STATE HOUSE,. We are graft
fed, says the Annapolis Gazette, to observe
that Governor Hicks is making a very judi
cious expenditure of part of his contingent
fund, in making highly necessary repairs in
and about the State house. The Executive
chamber, the rotunda and the front entrance,
together with the wall around the grounds
are in the hands of the workmen, and the
Governors judicious expenditures will, we
think, save the State a large sum in the flu
ture.

Among its peculiar advantages, arc
FIRST. The teeth are SO constructed with rub
Der springs, that when they come in
contact with roots, rocks, stumps or
stones, or other distractions, not over
sixteen inches high, they spring back,
pass over, and Immediately regain
their former pos;tion-avoiding the
necessity of stopping to put in wood
en- pins, as in other Drills. Newly
cleared land can be seeded with this
Drill. The springs can be set 10 drill
the hardest kind Of ground, but they
will suddenly yield when they meet
with firm obstruction
SECOND. The arrangements for distributing
the seed, is by two vulcanized rubber
rollers, revolving together, which dis
charge the grain in a constant stream
without breaking it or choking and
no irregularty Of the ground, or fact
or slow motion OF the team, will va
ny the quantity sown to the acre. It
cannot be choked by straws or white
caps in the wheat, as the rollers will
carry them through. The quantity

mount instantly, when standing or in
motion.
THIRD. When the teeth are raised by the le-
yer, the seed and measure are Instant
ly stopped. The Drill can be drawn
from field to field without leaking or
wasting the grain. When the teeth
are let down. the feed starts immed-
ately when in motion. IT sows
WHEAT, RYE, OATS and BAR
LEY, with the same hopper, and re-
quires no change also, all kinds Of
