ROads.-At nearly every meeting Of the
Commissioners, petitions are presented for
new roads, and locations for such roads are
continually being viewed and granted
The numerous roads which the county is
already called upon to keep in order is one
fruitful cause Of tho great road evil which
is ut present attracting so much attention.
II half the miserable roads were shut up
which the county is now called upon to
keep in order and the remaining half thor
oughly repaired, the public would be much
better accommodated. Until the Commits
sioners set their faces against this indis-
criminate opening of new roads, which in
many cases are to avoid old roads that are
scarcely passible for the want of proper
repair, there will be no remedy for the bad
road plague.

Death Of Captain Christie.-Capt. John
s. Christie, of Rowlandsville, this county,
died on Wednesday morning last, after a
short and painful illness. Captain Christie
raised a volunteer company in '62 and was
commissioned and entered the service as
Captain Of Company G, 9th Md. Vol, but
resigned before the close of the war, return
ing to Rowlandsville and resuming business
at his old stand. He was owner Of the ex-
tensive flour mill which was erected by him
at that place, and is one Of the largest mills
in the county. The deceased was much
respected and beloved by all who knew him
and his sudden death in the prime of life is
a painful loss to the neighborhood, and sad
bereavement to the family of the deceased.

The publication of General Horace Por-
ter's statement concerning the reported out
rage by the militia of Arkansas, sets at rest
a question which began to excite fears for
the discretion of the Union men of the
State. Rebel telegraph agents have had it
all their own way for the past three weeks,
and the country has been gulled nightly
with reports of barbarous outrages COM
mitted upon peaceable citizens by disor-
ganized mob of militia. When the truth
appears, all these barbarities were simply
seizures of food and forage under orders,
for which vouchers were given. The state
ments of Governor Clayton show that he
has studied thoroughly, and that his action
has made him master Of of the situation
Arkansas rebels now know that there is
power within the State sufficient to protect
it against all their Vaccinations.

Advertise Your Spring Sales.-The sea-
son is now here when vendues Of personal
property are held throughout the county
We allude to this thus early to remind
farmers and others who intend to sell out
the coming spring, that too little attention
is paid to advertising thoroughly. To save
few dollars, hundreds Of dollars are lost.
Advertise your sales in the ne,espapers-
A hand-bill is only seen by few, but the
newspaper reaches the many-goes into
their houses, and is read by every member
Of the family. Drawing crowd from all
sections will induce greater competition in
bidding, and enable the seller to get much
better prices or each article sold, making
in the aggregate gain that will amount to
hundreds Of dollars. The Wing circulates
extensively in every part of the county. 1t
goes to every post office, and in every town.
Advertisers who make use Of our columns
will find it a good investment.

Coughs and COlds.-During the change
able seasons Of Fall and Winter, when
coughs and colds are SO frequent, no person
should be without some valuable prepars-

coughs, colds, hoarsness, chronic, catarrhs,

tible of pain as Of pleasure. We were

them are divine. The world is filed full
of dangerous things, things which can

stands near them To say Come not here. "
There is not a step we take but death is
there. Pain is continually on the larboard
or starboard side, and life consists in
steering between dangers on one hand ar
the other. Where there is so much sor>
row, there is only one way. II is TO think
