No turnpike movement this year.
The Commissioners, at their session
last week, failing to agree upon a
plan, postponed the matter indef-
nitely. We are sorry that it is SO.
We believe large majority of our
people are in favor of judicious
system of turnpikes, and this MONACO

sore disappointment to them. ,ii5A

week. 1t was found in the field
where he keeps his mules. The
probabilities are that the thief at

other stolen property, but the
muleishness of the animal rendered
that part Of the programme unsuc-

A Destructive Tornado at Cumberla nd.
Maryland.

On Monday afternoon last dark red
cloud of singular appearance doomed up
suddenly in the western part of the heavens,
and in a few moments there was every
indication ofan approaching storm. Sud
denly, and without moments warning,
tornado of wind swept over portion of
our city with terrific violence In the
twinkling of an eye almost all Baltimore
street was filed with flying storeboxes,
signs, &c. The wind caught the roof of
the stable of Charles Perry, ESQ, and
carried it off, and immedia tely afterwards
the tall splre on the tower ofthe Episcopal
church building. on Washington street,
was toppled over, and came crashing to
the ground. scattering fragments of timber
in all directions, but fortunately injuring
no one. On Baltimore street large num-
Der of windows were broken, the most ex-
pensive being two fine plate glass windows
in Mr.. KearneJ,s Wholesale family grocery,
corner of Centre street. The doors of the
store were standing open when the storm
came up, and they were blown shut with
about quarter-inch in thickness, was shi-
vered into minute fragments. and lay upon
the sidewalk in every conceivable shape.
The gable end of the stable in rear of the
St. Nicholas Hotel was blown out and
three fine hogs belonging to Mr.. Samuel
Luman, killed by the falling brick and
mortar The force of the wind was terrific
yet it was confined to narrow path
nothing of it being felt in the upper part
of the city. 1t certainly did not last over
three minutes, and in FIVE minutes after
its commencement the air was as quiet and
tranquil as a summer eve. The injury
sustained by Emmanuel church amounts to
about two thousand dollars. 1t is said the
spire will be rebuilt of stone. and thus be
made more substantial. Cumberland TEL

The COiored Minister to Hayti--His
Interview with the President, DC.

The Herald Washington correspondence
has the following in relation to the inter-
view of the colored minister to Hayti, E.
D Bassett, with President Grant. Bassett
says: ''When I went into Mr. Grant s
office I found him talking with Mr.. Cres-
well, both sitting down and both smoking
cigars. Here Bassett smiled Our con-
versation was free and cordial. Mr. Grant
asked me several questions about resonr-
ces of Hayti, its history. customs of the
people. &c, which | answered as we'll as
| knew how. Mr. Grant opened map
of the West Indies as big as that table,
and referred to it during our conversation.
Mr.. Creswell also examined cyclopedia
regarding some points that arose. The
President was very emphatic, and, at the
same time, very cautious in expressing
himself about the policy of annexation
He said his own views were in favor Of
such policy. but that he thought in all
cases the people of a country to be an
nexed should first show themselves aux
ious for union with US, and that then it
would be subject for the consideration
of our government. You see he was very
careful in his expressions on that subject,
saying that even after a people showed
Themselves favorable to annexation, it would
still be question for cur consideration
He said he had no particular instructions
to give me. told him [ could only
bring to the office with which he had hon
ored me patriotism, honesty, fidelity and
industry. He replied that he felt there
could be some advantage to be derived
from my appointment to Hayti; that be-
ing accredited to a people of the same race
as myself, | would be received with more
cordially and be enabled, perhaps, to be
Of more service to the United States.
| told him | had assurances that [ would
be well received" = At his interview
with Secretary Fish, Basett was told that
there were several claims against the Hay
tien government, but they were not in
such shape as to require demand or
settlement; the service of the United
States minister would simply be used in
the way of friendly mediation.

Important Discovery of Fuel.

We have liable information of the re-
cent disco at Buffalo Gap, eleven
miles west. taunton, Va, on the line
of the Chg ake and Ohio railway, Of
vein of pu anthracite coal some nine
feet in thickness. 1t has long been known
that inexhaustible deposits of iron ore
existed in this region; but they we're only
worked very slightly before the war, on
account of the scarcity of the proper
fuel. This discovery of anthracite with
in half mile of the great line of railway
which will soon connect the Ohio with the
James by the shortest route is matter of
the greatest interest to Washington,
Richmond. and Norfolk, all of which
cities are are now obliged to draw upon
Philadelphia for their supplies. 1t will
also stimulate the exploration of the iron
mines in thai region, and the development
of thetw deposits will necessarily add
immensely to the traffic of the Chesapeake
and Ohio and Orange and Alexandria
railways.
The work on the Chesapeake and Ohio
road westward from Covington is progress
ing very rapidly to White Sulphur
Springs, in Greenbrier county, to which
place it will be completed by the 25th in
slant In view of all these facts, the i'm
portance Of this deposit of coal to all the
adjacent country can hardly be overesti-

who brought it about should be cherished
for our repro5ation, as long as life itself
hall last
sit is a deep humiliation for Virginians
to have to choose one of two carpet baggers
for their Governor Aud it is deeply ag-
gravated when we remember that it has
been brought about by those who were
bound to prevent it-that in this regard
we have been wounded in the house of
our friends But SO it is. There is no
help for it.; we are bound to choose
Wells or Walker must be Governor If
both are bad, prudence says choose the
one who will do the least evil, and pa
triotism urgently demands that we should
give the preference to him who, in his an
tecedents, general bearing, character. and
affiliations, gives the strongest assurances
that he can appreciate the dignity of the
Office to which he aspires, aud that in his
personal and official conduct he will emu
late the fame of his illustrious predeces-
sors."
AS to the constitution, Governor Smith
says:
"You can but notice, my old friend
that [ have treated the questions [ have
discussed as if the constitution, in a mod
fled form, would be adopted. Of this [
have no doubt 1t would not be by my
vote had one to cast but it will be car
ried by thousands"
This result, SO plainly seen by every
man who understands Virginia, is not yet
visible to she eyes or Sii. There are few
men of character and talents who allow
their prejudices to blind them, and refuse
to acknowledge that no earthly power can
prevent the ratification of the constitution,
and who are doing more to damage Mr.
Walker than is the vilcst of the Radicals.
The Indians who the other day tried to
stop locomotive on the Pacific railroad
by lassooing it as they would have lassoo-
ed a wild horse, and who were jerked into
commissions by the passing steam horse,
acted with as much wisdom as marks the
conduct of those men who are trying to
induce the people of Virginia to take issue
with the Radicals upon the question of rat
flying the constitution. The plain duty
of our. people is to register, vote out the
DISTINGUISHING clauses, elect Walker, and
choose the best men for the Legislature
Vote against ratification if you will, but
don't try to persuade anybody that he can
possibly defeat it, or that he has done his
whole duty when he has cast such vote.
1t is criminal to do so.-Rich. Dis.
