sented
On motion, Hon. John Wethered, of the first
district, was called to the chair temporarily, and
Thomas P. Philips and VIM. HI. Ruby appoint
ed temporary secretaries. On motion, a com
mittee on credentials and committee to sug-

The following resolutions, offered by Thos.
H. Moore, were adopted almost unanimously
RESOLVED, That the present distressed condi-
ton of our Southern bretheren appeals strongly
to our sympathies; that the enforcement of
odious and oppressive enactments by means of
the military in times of peace the arrest and inn
prlSonment OF citizens upon nlmSy preteXI; the
imposition of burdensome takes, the elevation
of irresponsible -baggers to Office, in short
the general corruption, imbecility and nepot-
ism which have characterized the present adj
ministration, has rendered tedious in the eyes
of the people, and its removal loudly called for,
and that, with this end in view we are prepar-
ed to join heartily with any party or persons
who, casting aside political and partisan pre-
judices, and governed by patriotic motives, will
assist in his effort to restore peace and harmo-
ny within the borders of our common country

DIRECT Your LETTERS CARSfULLY.-A!tel
reading the following, persons should take the
hint and observe more care in directing theil
letters:
The Postal Record says that during the pas
year there were sent to the Dead Letter Office
nearly three million letters. Sixty ight thous
and of these letters could not be forwarded ow-
ing to the carelessness of the writers hitting
to give the county or State; four hundred thous
and failed to be sent because the writers forgot
to put on stamps, and over three thousand let.
tiers were put in the post office without any ad
dress whatever. In the letters above named
was found over S92,O 900 in cash, drafts, checks
etc., etc, to the value of $3,0O0,OO0. There
were over thrtynine thousand photographs
contained in the above letters. Ofcourse near
ly all the money and valuables were returned
70 the owners but much needless delay, many
charges of dishonesty, ETC., might have been
saved il the writers of the letters could have
been little more careful, and taken the pre-
ca ution TO see that their letters were in malta
BILE condition before depositng them in the
post Office. 1t is more than probable that nine
tenths of all the complaints, losses and delays
which are laid to the Post-0ffiee department
are in reality due to the carelessness of their
writers.

FRIENDS OLD MEETING .Housp.-On sunda,

FRIENDS OLD MEETING HoUsE.-On Sunday
morning lastt was our pleasure to attend Friends
meeting at the Friends old Westinghouse, ~
about one mile south of Oregon Furnace in the
9th district of Baltimore county. This old
building is an antique looking structure. 1t is
built in the usual style Of the Friends meeting
houses except that it has two stories. 1t is a
moderate sized church having two fire places in
it, These situated at the southeast and
north west corners of the room. They are large
enough to receive common cord wood stick
There are four doors of entrance, one on the east
one on the west and two on the side of the house.
The usual partition stands between the male and
female seats. 1t is erected of stone and has a
substantial look. One stairway ascends to the
upper story from the inside Of the bnding and
one from the outside This upper story is occu-
pied by family who exercises a sort OF super
vision over the building and the premises. The
front yard is enclosed by stout post aud rail
fence with large gate for an entrance. The
graveyard is surrounded by an admirable stone
wall that gives an air of comfort and neatness
to the entire surroundings. This wall was built
about two years ago at the expense OF Moses
Wheeler of Steubenville, Ohio, but formerly OF
this vicinity, and whose ancestors sleep in the
graveyard There are but few tombstones in the
graveyard whose inscriptions can be read
Nest of them have sunk their Inscriptions below
the surface. Inc OLDEST one that we could reau
was placed there in 1902.
We were informed by friend that the minutes
of the meeting show that about one hundred
years ago this old church was erected, the record
showing that it had TO be built TO take the place
of one that had become unfit for occupancy for
quarterly meetings. So that we consider il safe
to say that this place of worship is well near two
hundred years DID, At the time the present house
was built there was none in Baltimore city
And at that time the ancestors of the present
Friends Society in Gunpowder neighborhood
lived in and around that vicinity. But time and
circumstances removed most Of them TO their
present locality, and necessity thus created es-
tablished their present place OF worship at Shadd
Hill meeting house in the midst of the Friends
Society. The Society hold four meetings each
year at the old meeting -bouse, one in June, one
in July, one in August and one in September.
We were much pleased to visit this ancient land
mark of our early history and to learn the facts
connected with it and the associations that clus-
ter around it. We are always gra6ed when we
can learn something of the history and doiues OF
the olden time, and particularly so in this in
stance.

Az UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAW AGAINsr TREsPAss-
ERs UPON LASD.-In the Criminal Court of Bal
timore city, in the removed cases of the State
againstGeo Hoice and Conrad Schloefer, in
dicted in Baltimore county for cutting down
"'about $50 hoop-poes upon the premises of
Charles H. and E. D. C. Moale," in the viola
ton of the act of 1867 chapter 1853, the demur-
rer filed by .counsel for defense was sustained
by Judge Gilmor, on the ground that this act is
unconstitutional, and that the indictments were
defective. The act, which applies to the whole
State except Baltimore city and Calvert Coun-
ty,,provides that "any person who shall enter
upon the land of any person, &C. and shall will
fully and malieiously injure or destroy any
house, take and carry away any growing tree
vine, &C., or any fencing, cordwood or hoop
poles, shall on conviction thereof in any of the
courts or before justice of the peace of the
State having Jurisdiction thereof be adudged
guilty Ct a misdemeanor and be fined not less
than S. more than 800, or be imprisoned
in the city or county Jail not less than one
month nor more than two months, or be both
fined and imprisoned, in the discretion of the
court or the justieeo the peace" The grounds
of the demurrer sustained by the court were
that BY the bill Of rights in all criminal prose
cutions, every man hath a right to a trial by
jury, &C., and that.the act under which the in.
dictments were found, giving Jurisdiction to G
Justice of the peace In cases of misdemeanor
being repugnsnt to the bill of rights. is void
also that-the izdictments were defective in moi
charging a specific number, &c. There are als6
two other cases against the same parties, in
which indictments were found for larceny
arising out of the same transaction. In these
demurrers have been. fled on the ground4 thai
the indictments are defective for want of Ger
tanty. These questions were also submitted
to the Judge. but he declined to decide them
without taking time for consideration, and re
served his decision.
