LAW AND JUSTICE IN MARyLAND.-The Baltl-
more american, In referring to case concluded
in the u s. District Court, last Friday, says :
' The case Is one that has been pending for some
time, and was brought under the auspices of the
Association for the Education and Improvement
Of the Col0rcd People. This Association employ
cd a colored girl, named Mary Anderson, to teach
school ut Hapre de Grace, and while in its en-
play she was rccklessly and ruthlessly assaulted
ny Robert Galloway, youth eighteen years old.
The fncts us brought ont on the trial were these
Mary Anderson, while on her way home from
school ia the company Of her scholars, was,
without any provocation, struck upon the back
OF the head by Robert Galloway, and knocked
from the plank walk. She turned and told him
that he was no gentleman. He then kicked her
with his heavy cunning boots. She resented the
assault by telling him again that he was no
gentleman. He then raised his gun and threaten
ed to knock her head off. How unproyoked
this assault was may be Judged from the
fact that no difficulty nor even acquaintance ex-
listed between the parties at the time, and a blow
was the first intimation that Mary Anderson had
OF the presence of Robert Galloway; and yet a
jury, composed of George r Amos, David Mar
lin, William II. Rogers, John w. Watkins, Caleb
lloshall, Joshua Plaskitt, Charles f. Percval,
james II. Steele, Thomas N. Wolfe, John NJ.
llausch, Richard X. Waters and Ignatius Gore,
cmpanncled to try the case, gave verdict of only
one cent. Out OF list of twenty men presented
to try this case, only three could be found who
ever made any pretensions TO loyalty, and two OF
these were carefully stricken off by the dclen.
dent. We would not say that the jury was
packed, but IL 1t had been, the trial could moi
have been greater farce"

IMPROVEMENTS AT HAvRE DE GRACE MD.-
We had occasion to visit Havre de Grace few
days ago, and, although 1t had not been long
since we had been there, we were quite surprised
to see the change which had taken place since our
last visit There appears to be more enterprise
in the town than we ever rec0llect to have seen
before. Everything wears the appearance of
prosperity, and the new buildings which one secs
he passes along the streets, together with those
press him with the fact that Havre dc Grace be-
fore long must be town of considerable size and
commerce.--Beldir 41sgis.
