Damages for Injury on Public Roadi

Damages for Injury ON Public Roads.
The Prince Georgian furnishes the follow
ing notice of the case of Gibson vs County
Commissioners of Calvert County. This case
was removed to Prince Georges at the in
stance of the plaintiff and tried at the late
term of the Circuit Court:
This was an action to recover pay from that
county for injury to wagon and buggy of
the plaintiff. which were broken in travelling
over the public roads. The plaintiff having
made no claim for exemplary damages in his
declaration, the Court ruled out all evidence
upon this point, aud instructed the jury that
the defendants were responsible for damages
of this character unless they ensued from the
lack of due care and diligence by the plain
tiff. The defendants coutended that they
were not responsible for such damages, and
that the plaintiff had not exercised due eau
ton to avoid the accidents, this road being
VIGOROUSLY in bad condition, and another
road, in' better order, nearly as Convenient to
him. The Court, however, ruled that the fact.
if sustained, would not exonerate the Com
missioners from responsibility, the plaintiff
being entitled to use either road in his discre-
ton, and instructed the jury that if they found
that otherwise the plaintiff had used due care,
then he was entitled to recover, and the jury,
after short deliberation, brought in YER
dict for the plaintiff for $3.50. This is an
important question, and will probably be re-
viewed by the county officers.

The official circular issued by President
'Thiers explains that during the past few days
The comparative lull in operations against
Paris has been caused by the concentration Of
troops and the employment of the army in
engineering work. The veterans who consti-
tuted the Imperial army Of Bazaine, and have
recently returned from German prisons, are
being formed into new corps, and are to be
commanded by Generals Douai aud Chicaut.
Tuesday the besieging batteries on the south
wand Of -Paris opened heavy fire on the in
surgeuts in Forts D'Issy and Vanvres, and CD
the ramparts at the Pont du Jour. The Ger
mans have partially evacuated the left bank
Of the Seine, ard the Communists hurried to
take possession of the abandoned forts, but
the Germans quickly returned and drove them
out. A cessation of hostilities has commence
ed at Neuilly, for the purpose of allowing the
citizens to remove from the vicinity Of what
will probably be the ground of the hardest
fighting when the great attack, announced by
Theirs to be impending, is begun. In the
rural provinces there is said to be a strong
feeling 10 favor of the restoration of Napoleon,
and 10 the Assemblya number Of Deputies
are known to desire the election of the Duke
DAumals to the Presidency of the Republic.
The Northern Railway Of France, the last
route by which supplies were being sent into
Paris. is now officially announced to be effect
ually closed, and no further Transmission of
provisions into the city can be made. This
completes the blockade of Paris, and leaves
the surrender Of the Communists only mat
ter Of time, even if the Versailles army does
nothing moro than sit down before it and seal
up al the approaches.

= ~ The Ku-Klux bill, over which Con-

power to suspend the As6sss eopas in any

sposs Of bis own, be may think proper to al
-lsss that It Is impracticable to execute the
laws in any other mode. This law is I'M
donbtedly the most fragrant usurpation yet
assumed by the Radical Congress, and is .
rapid stride towards Capitalization aud the
total subjugation Of State to Federal authori.
y. It embraces the whole category of Of
fences named in the statute book If . "con-

BY direct proof o.. implication. In fact, the
jurisdiction Of the State Courts is taken away

The Confederate Dead at Gettysburg
The Richmond ENQUIRER saws:

The Confederate Dead at Gettysburg.
The Richmond Enquirer says:
We yesterday called on one of the ladies
conspicuously active in aid of the Hollywood
Memorial Association, and learned from her
that their memorial day falls on the 3lst of
May, aud, although there will be no address,
the services promise this year to be unusually
interesting.
The ground and walks of that portion Of
the Confederate cemetery at Hollywood allot-
ted to the dead to be removed from Gettys-
burg, will be all finished next week, and the
work Of removal will commence very soon
thereafter. The Legislature appropriated ST.
900 in aid of this patriotic movement, and the
ladies have obtained So 900 from other sources.
They hope, before it is needed, to increase this
fund considerably. There are 5000 Cnnfed-
crates buried at Gettysburg. the graves Of 600
of whom are marked, the remaining 2,40O
being designated as unknown"
The State appropriation will be devoted
first to the removal of the Virginians whose
graves are marked, and next, to the removal
of all who fell ON that part of the field where
Pickett's men fought so heroically; the pre-
sumption being that these are all Virginians.
After this the remainder Of the dead from all
the Southern States will be as rapidly re-
moved as circumstances will permit; the in
tention of the ladies being that there shall be
no delay until the whole work has been fully
| accomplished.

Bear i'm Mind.

When disease has undermined the health, and
the physical system has become Frustrated, a
stimulant that will not only strengthen, but re-
move the cause, should be Immediately resorted
to. Mental distress is also fruitful source Of
the breaking down of the constitution, and the
ravages of the enemy to health are truly alarm
ing. For all such maladies Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters have been found unsurpassed. By
acting directly upon the digestive organs, they
remove the heavy disagreeable feeling after eat
ing, so often complained of by persons of a del
icate temperament. As soon as digestion is
restored, the patient finds his strength increas-
ing and his general health improved.
Thousands of persons certify that it may be
relied on in all cases, of weakness or nervous
debility attendant upon sedentary habits. The
generality of Bitters are so disagreeable to the
taste that they are Objectionable to weak
stomach. This is not the case with Hostetter's
Bitters, which will be found mild and extreme
ly pleasant. Balsamic plants, banks and roots
contribute their restorative juices to render it
soothing and strengthening. Its basis is the
only pure stimulant which has ever been pro-
duced, containing no fusil oil, or any other de-
leterous element. The most careful and skill
full chemists have analysed the Bitters, and pro-
nounce them harmless. This is scientific testi-
mony; but the testimony of the hundreds of
thousands who have experienced the preventive
and curative effects of the Great Vegetable Tonic
and Alternative of modern times is still more
conclusive. In Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia,
Biliousness, Nervous Complaints, Chronic Com
plants and general debility it is as nearly in
fallible as anything in this fall bleworld can be.

peace and prosperity to the Southern States,
because it is thus that they seek to divide the
attention of the country from the corruption
and extravaganza in their administration of
public affairs, and the dangerous and profit
gate attempts they are making towards the
creation of a centralized military Government.
In the five years of peace following the war
the Radical Administrations have expended
81 200, 100000 far ordinary expenses alone,
being within 5000 900 900 Of the aggregate
amount spent for the same purposes, in war
and in peace, during the seventy-ons years
preceding June 80, 1861-not including, 10
either case, the sum paid upon principal or
interest of the public debt.
1t is trfling with the intelligence of the peo-
pie for the Radical leaders to pretend that this
vast sum has been honestly expended. Hun
dreds of millions of it have been wantony
squandered. The expenditures Of the Cow
eminent for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1861, were only $62,O0O,0O0, while for pre-
cisely the same purpses-civl list, army, na-
Wy, pension and Indians-$164 ,O0O,O 900 were
