We have examined a memorial ad-
dressed to the Board Of Public Works of
Maryland asking for a reduction Of tolls Cd
Coal by the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
Company, from the present ra tes Of 90 cts.
to 60 cts. per ton. The re asons for the
reduction, adduccd by the memorialists,
who were appointed by public meeting
of the citizens of Allegany County, ire
very strong, and we think show conclu-
sively that the proposed reduction would
largely enure to the benefit not only of
the people Of Allegany county. hut of the
State at large, AMI We hope til ercforc that
the Board OF Pu bic Works of this State,
will give to this memorial that attention
which the Importance of the subject de-
serves at their hands.

"Pretty SharP,' but not quite Sharp
HnOush

I3- The editor of the Boonsboro' Odd Fellow
wns very jubilant last week, over what he was
pleased to term ''nsat little parliamentary ma
nocuvre,' aud gave vent to his ohucklipgs of de-
light ns follows '''-s.- g.
Parry SgARe.-The Maryland Senate, on
Friday, passed the bill TO change the mode of Sc
leciing Jurors in the loyal Counties of Western
asryland-yeas 49, nayss. Mr.. Davis, the Re-
publican memser from Caroline County, voted in
the Affirmative, for the purpose Of moving re-
consideration of the bill, within three days,
which he at once gave notics he should do.
The effect of this neat little parliamentary ma
nmuvre is simply just this-that certified copy
Of this Jury law cannot now he sent to Frederick
County Court, which met yesterday, (Wednes-
day, in time to supersede the Jury already sum-
moned by the Sheriff. 1t was the infection OF
the "hasty legislators to rash this ill through
in time to supsrsedc The Jury selected by the
Sheriff. The Judge Who is Rebel would have Sc
leced Jury entirely OF Rebels, and thus insured
tie acquittal OF n number of Swnnn's Registrars,
who have been indicted for n violation of the
Constitution. THUS nice little game WINS block
cd BY Radical shrcwdncss. We are glad 10 know
our Radical friends in the General Assembly are
wide awake, aud on the alert 10 defeat the ends
of Rebel malignanls. They are but few to &C
compish anything yet sharp enough to out-wit
the Rebels, whose judgments are often blinded
BY vinlctvencss.
The 'neat little parliamentary mnnnuvre,"
insteal ofproduciug the effect desired and antic-
ipatcl by the acute tactician of the Odd Fellow,
merely caused the following little scene at the as
semhling of the Frederick Circuit Court, last
week Col. VIM. Z. Maulsby called the atten-
ton of the Cour. to the seventh section ofthe act
for snmmoning juries in Washington Frederick
and Carroll Counties which provides until the
provisions of the act en- be fully complied Nth tho
ensuing terms Of the Circuit Court shall be post
pors3 and moved in accordance Herewith that
the Court adjourn.
Mr. Goldsborough hurredly rose and protest.
ed against the unconstitutonality of the law, &c,
&c. .,.
Judge Nelson. eMr. Goldsboroush, take your
seat, sir. The Circuit Court for Frederick
County stands adjourned uut;l Monday next at
O'Clock"
The next time our shrcwd contemporary of the
Odd Fellow discovers similar ''mares nest''
advise him to wait III til he sees what the eggs
will hatch out.

"Fon NEGRO SuEFRAGE.-Thc Fred
erick Republican, an ably edited and in
luential Union paper, comes out strongly
for Negro suffrage. His arguments are
strong and convincing. to an unprcjudi-
ced mind. Just here is the great difficult
ty; mems preiudices are strong and stub
born, and more diff cult to break down
than an honest, though erroneous, convic-
ton. An enlightened judgment and
enlarged sense Of justice is most needed
to accomplish this REFORM
The enlightened judgment and en-
larged sense of justice" possessed by the
Editor of the Odd Fellow, have. we

A Perfect Antidote for all E'oisons.


A plain farmer says: "It is now over
twenty years since | learned that sweet
oil would cure the bite of rattlesnake,
not knowing that it would cure 9th er kinds
of poison Practice, observation and ex-
perience have taught me that it will cure
POISON of any kind, both on man and beast.
I think no farmer should be without bottle
of it in his house. The patient must take
q spoonful of it internally, and battle the
wound for a cure To cure horse it re-
quires eight times as much as it does for
a man. Here let me say o. one of the
most extreme eases of snake bites in this
ncighborhood: Eleven years ago this
summer, where the case htd been thirty
days standing, and the patient had been
given up by his physicians, I heard of it,
carried the oil, and gave him one spoonful
which effected cure. 1t is an antidoto
for arsenic and strychnine. 1t will cure
bloat in cattle by eating too freely of fresh
clover; it will cure the sting of bees, spi 'ers
or other insects; and will cure persons
who have been poisoned by a low rnnnina
vine growing in the meadows, called
