THERE is exhibited at the Maryland
Institute, Baltimore, q wonderful clock,
the work of clock maker named Mor<
rill, which it took fourteen years 80 COM
plete This clock runs eight days, strik-
ing the quarter hours on four different
bells of various sounds, gives the alarm
to awaken the master, lights a lamp,
lights fire in the stove, rings bell in
the servants chamber, who arises in the
presence Of all, looks around the audi
ence few moments, then draws the cur
tain to dress. A carriage is seen com
ing along the road, calls at Mr.. Morilps
store and gets clock, and drives away.
AS the carriage nears the mountain, two
robbers attack the horses, and desper~
ate fight ensues. A farmer, with a glass,
espies them, and comes TO the rescue
A hunter at distance discovers the
state of affairs, and fires at the robbers,
killing one, the other disappearing into
his cave in the mountain, and the cars
riage drives on with its occupants.

posed an elopement: the Constitution was

to fly with him on the gallant bark which was
to bear her to foreign clmes. The Captain
was enraptured; he placed in the hands OF
his betrothed ST. 900 to enable her to arrange
everything for their fight. The lady yester-
day told the gallant Captain that it was nee

friends, that he should meet her on the wharf

a License is to pay the County Treasurer the
amount required by law, take receipt from him,
which receipt should be taken to the County Aud
itor, and by him fled, and the County Auditor
then issues the License. A number Of persons
have obtained receipts from the Treasurer and
have not fled them with the Auditor, and obtained
their License. The County Auditor is required by
law to open books, and keep an account with the
money, and every man will see the necessity Of

We are leavinz behind US seven or eight
hundred negroes who have quartered them
selves within our lines, and who, up to the
time Of our departure, have been fed hy
our brigade wagon master, who has drawn
rations for them regularly ever day from
the Commissary's stores. The present
condition of affairs plainly indicates that

that Bayou LAT, urche is large stream
