DorBlr pirn CRKeK IrENs. Tho first day
Of April was 4 fine springlike day, aud il be-
ing moving day as well as paying day, the
movers had fine time oft. The public roads
seemed literally lined with fitting teams, but
the prompt payers were few and far between,
while the disappointed were very numerous.
Some farmers have adopted the no plowing
or lazy system, commenced sowing oats on
the unharrowed or uncultIvated corn stubble,
narrowing or cultivaiing after. In light mel
low soil and wet season this may answer, but
in heavy clay soil and dry season, II will not
justify the expenditure OF seed and labor.
On the Sd Of April the last snow in my scope
of observation disappeared, and some persons
have planted early potatoes,
Last Saturday and Monday were stormy
days, and u great deal of fencing was blown
down, and some outbuildings more or less in
jured. Mr.. Frederick Briefly, near Ladies'
burg, Frederick county, had part Of his barn
roof blown off,
The late rains and melting snow caused
another rise in our river, giving our fishermen
another opportunity Of catching fish, and some
have been quite successful. | said to one, do
You ever catch black bass? he answered no
sir. Why not? He won't stay on the net,
for as soon as he finds he is coming to the sur.
face he flies off and skips along on the surface
of the water ten to fifteen PAGES like duck
half flying and half swimming This is one
Of the pecuarities of these fish. One Of our
citizens informs me that last summer he, with
some others, were fishing with stir nets and
standing in the water waist deep holding his
net, while the drivers or stirrers were approach
ing, bass seeing the net before him, and the
drivers splashing the water in the rear, his
basship not liking the situation at one bound
leaped over the man head, and skipped along
on the surface of the water for distance of
twenty yards. He further informs me that on
several occasions they succeeded in getting
one in the net, but on raising up the net the
bass finding he was incircled, he would leap
as high as three feet out ofthe water and skip
along on the surface making the water spray,
as much as to say, take me II yoM cdR.

The WESTERN MARYLAND RAILROAD. The
ordinance authorizing the Baltimore city com.
missloners of finance to invest $3.50, 600 in the
purchase of Sl7S,500 of second preferred
mortgage bonds of the Western MARYLAND
Railroad, and of 5000, 900 of other bonds of
said company, held to provide for sinking
fund, passed the second branch of the city
council on Monday, having already passed
the first branch. Immediately on its passing
the second branch Mr.. Ford offered resolu.
ton, which was passed, as follows:
Resolved by the council, That in the pas
sage of the ordinance for the relief of the
Western Maryland Railroad Company the
corporate authorities accept in the fullest con.
hdence the assurances of the President and
Directors of that company that the road will
be completed and in working order from this
city to the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, at
Williamsport, on or before the LIST of July
next ensuing, and that the clerk be directed
to send copy of the above resolution TO the
President and Directors of the said railroad
company.
The Williamsport Pilot says that the latest
information from Baltimore is TO the effect
that the Board Of Directors Of the Western
Maryland Railroad have determined to make
the Williamsport end of the road at once, and
IN preference over all other portions, whilst
the Baltimore Sun says that the other end is
to be made first. We hope that both ends
will be made at the same time, so that the
road will become an independent one from
the river to the city.

VILLAINS, ALL.-John @. Fremont was
the first candidate OF the so.oalled IRE
publican" party for President OF the
United States. It is eminently fitting
that, just ns Wilaon, Oolfax, Patterson,
Amos and others of that hypocritical
set, who couldn't partake OF the sin OF
even allowing slavery to exist in the
South. have been convicted Of sollipg
their votes for money. fremont should
have been detected in swindling the peo-
pie Of France. Tho world is field
none too wide for the operations of men
whose oonsciences arc so sensitive as to
other peoples piccadilloes and 80 dead
as to their own sins. OF course. Fre-
mont will not be punished. seeing thst
he will never again be seen in France.
He will in this respect share the fate of
his political friends on this side OF the
Atlantic. Let them all be handed down
to posterity as hypocrites who have done
Infamous acts whilst protesting to be
better than Calhoun, Jnckson; Madison,
Monroe, or any other stakeholder.

SALE DAY.-A large number OF citi.
zens were in attendance on Monday last.
The colored population was we'll repre-.
sented, as to numbers. The behavior
of few OF both oolors was not SO good
as we mad seen, and as is usually tho ssssso
on sUch occasions at our village, and We
regretted to see that too much whiskey
was the prime cause OF the wranglinE
and difficulties that occurred. One or
two fist fights took place. bat little or
no damage was done, though stones were
freely thrown, weapons fouriehed, and o
great deal OF noise made. The rowing
was altogether among the whites, with
one exception, and that was in the case
of negro interfering in scuffle be-
tween two white men. The said negro
was struck on the head with something,
I've know not what,) but not injured.
We are sadly In want of some power
to preserve order and keep the peace.
We have officers whose duty it is to
keep the peace, but if there was an effort
made in that direction on the occasion
alluded to, VIC are not aware of tho fact.

MANY MEDICINES IN ONE.-In speak
ing of the extraordinary raridity with
which Hostetter's Stomach Bitters re-.
cruit debilitated and exhausted system,
the preparation is usually referred to as
vegetable tonic of marvellous power
But those who suppose that its opera.
ton is limited to its direct effect upon
the digestive organs, little understand
the true nature of this comprehensive
remedy. It is not only tonic. but also
a gentle laxitive. an active anti.bilious
medicine, mild diuretic. and general
Alternative. It is to this combination of
many essential sanitary properties that
tho article owes its success in variety
of distressing complaints, each of whiol,
in ordinary practice. is subjected to e
different mode Of treatment. It is i'm.
possible to investigate feeble and dis.
eased organization without regulating
and purifying it. The Bitters do both.
