4 THINGS ABOUT TowN.-The Telegraph poles
have been put up They are good, heavy chest
nut saplings, and stand closer together than on
any line we remember to have seen. Going down
the Railroad in one of the four-horse fast Ex-
press" trains, the line of Telegraph poles, looks
like fine-tooth comb. The wire has not yet
been put on, but when it is, look out Tor the elec
tricity. :.
wandering Band of Minstrels "Sanford's
Original Troupe,n of course, ornamented the
fences and stables of our town last week, with
snowy posters and striking portraits, Informing
the people that lone of their grand entertain
ments'' would be given in the Odd Fellows
Hall on Friday evening. The knights OF the
'burnt cork" had rather a slim audience, and
probably left town deeply grieving the want Of
appreciation for their festive art, shown by the
Towsontonians. rss .
Mr.. Julius Rudiger, a worthy and industrious
shoemaker of our town, has leased a lot from
Smedley 4, Co., near Sheridan's Smith shop, and
has already excavated a cellar preparatory to
erecting dwelling thereon, c@
Dr. Piper's dwelling is finished and workmen
are engaged putting up his stable. ,sy.
The skaters have stopped work on the Court
Houee rooffor the present, but will complete the
job at an early day.
! Most of the lawyers have returned from their
usual Summer frolic, and are once more ready
to take i'm any stray client who may be so UNI
fortunate as to fall in their way. 5g 9lI
/ About the Court House. business is being put
in readiness for the assembling Of the August
term, which takes place on Monday next week.
The Sheriff has summoned the juries and the
Clerk is preparing the trial docket. II the pris-
oners who left town so unceremoniously week
ago, return from their little excursion in time,
we presume the coming term will have consider
able business to dispose Of. sHe ag.
Chris Shaw still keeps lively family around
him at the a'Smedley House, especially on
Thursday evenings, when the weekly chop
comes off. NM. t.-...g..t
Jno. T. Fnsor, ESQ, States Atty, who has
been suffering with an attack of the Typhoid, has
recovered sufficiently to attend to business and is
rapidly regaining his former strength.
Travells brisk on the Rail Road in spite of the
high rates of fare, and the Turnpike is crowded
with market wagons in spite of the exorbitant
tolls and numerous gates. gs.4. sd ffs,r
The proposed county road to connect Towson-
town with Chas ST. Avenue, will undoubtedly
be opened at an early day, as we hear no objec-
ton at all made to it..
In the Union office nothing ofanY interest has
occurred during the week, except, that several
new subscribers came in, and severed old ones
paid off their back scores, evidently dropping
into our Office under the impression that they
were stepping into Ady's Hotel across the street.
'~zLABoR AGENCY. Mr.. Oliver Wood, has estab-
lished an agency at No. 6l Second street, Balti-
more, for supplying Farmers with reliable white
and colored laborers. This is most excellent
arrangement, valua BILE to the honest laboring
man seeking employment, and valuable to the
Farmer in need Of help. Colored freedmen are
brought from Richmond, Alexandria and other
Cities and at a small cost are supplied with re-
muneratiye employment. The Importance of Mr..
Woods business, and the service he is rendering
to farmers, may be judged from the fact that he
has already supplied over 700 workmen to vari-
Gus parts of the State. He does a fair and open
business, making contract between employer
and employee so that none can be deceived. Far
mers in need of laborers will do well to call on
him. 4ag aHfgi4a sf{t gesl5 4stt.. ~
ROBBERY IN TowsoNrowN -On Tuesday night
last, Mr.. Geo. Stieber, shoemaker, of this place,
had an unwelcome customer in the person Ola
thief who gained admittance to his shop, and
after supplying himself with about $50 worth of
boots and shoes, left the premises without paying
his bill The thief affected an entrance by cut
ting twocsats out of the shutter, and thus reach
ing the bolt, he had little difficulty in opening
the window and getting inside An employee Of
Mr. Stieber was sleeping over the shop, and was
awake several times during the night but heard
nothing of the thief From the manner of his
entrance and the position of the articles which
he took, there is little doubt that the thief was
we'll acquainted with the place. HaY48 6aa
AN APPEAL.-Our readers will find in another
column, the appeal Of the Union commission, in
behalf Of the suffering people of those sections of
our country which have been desolated by the
war. 1t is but necessary to read the appeal, to
see how pressing is this demand upon our chari-
tya Mr. g. s. Griffith 81 w Baltimore street,
Baltimore, is the President of the Commission,
and is well-known for his untring liberality in
behalf of our suffering soldiers. Food, clothing,
agricultural implements, &C., may be sent to him
and money toJ. N. Brown, Treasurer, Baltimore.
We know of no cause that more deserves our
hberality
