OBITUARY,

Died, in Washington, on the Goth ult., after
Il lingering illness. Mrs. MARY NJ. PYE. relict
of the late CHARLES A. PYE, of this county, in
the Goth year Of her age.
Thus has passed away from earth one whose
character, gifted by nature and adorned by re-
ligion, had endeared itself not only to those of
kindred blood, but to all who came within the
sphere of her winning loneliness and felt the in
1uence of her gentle virtues.
In all the changes of her life, in prosperity
and adversely, the wealth and warmth of her
heart remained unchanged, for with every hui
man JOY and sorrow it ever beat in quick and
tender sympathy. To the poor and suffering
her generous hands were ever the ministers OF
comfort and relief Love of God and her fell
low-creatures ennobled her life and glorifed
her death. Closely did her heart cling to the
ties Of earth as the tide Of her life ebbed away,
yet could she turn away from it, and, in holy
faith, speak of the joys Of heaven. The same
strong faith which had beautified her whole
life, shone out brightly at the hour of death. -
"Almighty Father into thy hands commend
my soul" These were the last words which
came to the ears of the cherished ones gathered
around her.
Free, now, from all pain, her body lies near
the little church she loved SO well, and where
so often her prayers have assembled to the Father
of Mercies. While we turn our eyes from the
new-made grave and lift them towards the
home of peace whittier her spirit has fled, while
cherish with deepest affection the memory
of one so tender, loving and true, let us trea-
sure up the precious example of her life and
death, and as she has gone to join her loved
ones in heaven, we also may hope 20 meet her
again in the presence Of our Eternal Father.

BY reference to notice elsewhere, it will
be seen that the farmers of the fifth dis
trict are. in earnest in the matter Of look
ing after the agricultural interests of the
county. The fifth was the frst district to
5rganize farmers club, and at a recent
meeting o committee, consisting of three
members, Messrs. P. A. L. Contee, w. Mex.
Burroughs and Charles 81. Wood, was ap-
pointed to meet similar number of farm
ers from each district of the county in
Port Tobacco, on Tuesday, July 10Th, for
the purpose of establishing harmony of ac-
tion among the farmers of the county
Each district is urged to send delegates,
and from those districts, where clubs have
not yet been formed, it is hoped represen-
tatives will be present. Active and hearty
cooperation among farmers is most de-
sirable purpose, and it is to be hoped that
every district in the county will make cor
dial response to the call of the fifth and
send its Representatives to Port Tobacco.
We are pleased to note the determination
with which the farmers are moving, and
hope there will be full attendance on the
day designated.

~we are in receipt of letter from

HWe are in receipt of letter from
Mr.. John F. Kelly, of Washington, Com
mander of the Knights of st. Patrick, but
which we deem it unnecessary to publish,
in which that gentleman appears to take
issue with an editorial and local in this
paper in its issue of the 10Th ult Our ed
itorial was general in its terms, and refer
red solely to Glymont as place where
disorderly doings were of frequent enact
ment, and was not prompted altogether by
was disorder at Glymont on the occo-
sion of the excursion Of the Knights of
St. Patrick is admitted by Mr.. Kelly; that
this disorder originated with, was encour-
aged by, or participated in by the Knights
we never charged on the contrary, in our
local, to which objection is taken, we used
this language:
GAS matter of justice, however, to the large
number of green bedizened knights, who were
there, it is fair to say that but few of them for
got the proprieties due to be observed on such
occasions, and seemed greatly to regret the
.ventured, late in the day, by others. They
were evidently anxious to defend their good
name by enforcing order, but they seemed to
be powerless in that large crowd of over
three thousand people, and hence we conclude
that when the law-abiding and peace preserv-
ing element is so helpless, in such emergencies,
it is prudent and advisable to keep down vio-
lence by suppression of its occasion
This, in our opinion, clearly acquits us
of any attempt to visit censure upon the
Knights, under whose auspices the excur-
sion was conducted for the turbulent be-
haviour of roughs from the city, who were
disposed to avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity to crafty their propensities for q
fracas. Mr.. Kelly is also Lieutenant on
the police force of Washington, and, we
are informed, bears an irreproachablec char
acter in all respects. We regret that he OF
any member of the body, whom it is his
lprerogative to command, should nlisunder-
stand our intentions, and misapply our re-
marks. AS matter of justice to Mr.. Kelly
and the Knights of his command, we deem
it due to say thus much, and we conclude
with expressing the hope that, as the 4th
of July is to be celebrated by an excursion
to Glymont, the title of that place to the
respect of good citizens will be indicated
by rigid enforcement of the laws. We
have not, nor have our authorities, one
word Of complaint to make as to the con-
|
duct of the police officers from Washing
ton, who were at Glymont on the 18th of
June. 1t is to their active exertion and
that of the Knights, in cooperation with
the State officers, that, we believe, really
serious riot was averted on the occasion.

The Potomac Railroad Tunnel.

The first regular passenger train passed
through the Baltimore and Potomac Rail-
road tunnel Sunday LAST. The train was
one from the South, which heretofore have
been stopping at Lafayette station, Town
send street extended, at $50 A. NJ. This
train went through to the Calvert station
Of the Northern Central Railway, reaching
there at 6:45, the time between the two sta
tions being about fifteen minutes. Engine
No. 2, under the management of engineer J..
Sweeny, had the honor of hauling the first
passenger train through the tunnel. Con-
ductor John T. West had charge of the
train Everything is reported to have
worked smoothly. Hereafter, all passen-
ger trains of the Baltimore and Potomac
Railroad will depart from and arrive at
the Calvert station, stopping only at Lafay-
cite station to take up or land passengers.

which are telegraph offices, a bank, COM
mission and other offices for the transac-
ton OF the vast trade in live stock. One
commission merchant alone, who occupies
but small space in this building, stated
that his sales, per month, amounted to a.
bout 100000. After satisfying ourselves
that this trade was one of the most import
ant interests Of Chicago, we struck off for
other points, and viewing the immense
gram elevators the capacious canal, the
large and magnificent buildings, the broad
and airy streets, and the cheerful and hope
tul countenances one meets, we came to
the conclusion that. Chicago is great and
greatly expanding. Our stay in the city
was shortened in order to enable some of
our Eastern Shore friends to reach home
before Sunday. So we left Chicago We'd
nesday morning, taking the Fort Wayne
and Plttsuurg route homeWard.
Reaching Pittsburg late in the night,
we remained in the cars till summoned to
breakfast Thursday morning. We had no
opportunity to view the city, as the cars
left at s a. m.
Altoona was our next point, and there
we arrived at II o'clock the same morn
ing. After stroll through several of the
immense workshops of the Pennsylvania
Central Railroad Company, we were invit-
ed to dinner, furnished by the company. at
the large hotel. Dinner over, we were
conveyed in cars to several other work
shops. The number of hands employed in
all the shops is 5000; the steam power
employed is also very great. The work
turned out is of superior quality and said
to be unsurpassed by any other establish
ment of the kind in the country.
Onward by rail again, we find ourselves
under the care of Mr.. DeFord, General
superintendent of the p. G. r. r. Major
Hodgkiss, our Commander, is still with
us, however, exercising his guardian care
anon enquiring, rs it well?" From AL
toona the scenery is picturesque and beau
t1tul. The road runs for long distance
through mountains and along the blue Jul
nlatta. 1t the scenery is not so rugged and
grand as that we witnessed in West Vir-
glnia, it is equally interesting to the be-
holder in other respects. There are more
thriving towns and cultivated fields along
the line Of this road. which causes nature
to wear more civilized and cheerful as
pect. Passing on at the rate of forty miles
per hour, our train reached Harrisburg at
6 pm. We took supper at the depot and
started again Immediately for MY Mary
land" and as we passed over into her Dor
ders hearty whoop went up simultane-
ously, giving evidence of the deep affec-
ton we cherish for our good old mother.
We reached Baltimore at 10 p. m. Thurs
day night, and our party there separated.
We will cherish many pleasant remem-
ORANGES OF this trip in the future, if we are
spared. and none will give more sincere
qualification than the recollection of the
courteous attentions extended to us and
to each other while jouneying along to-
gether. E. W.

Victory for the farmer and for the Dem

is possible and certain in one way. We

one way. Ifthe farmers will organize i'm

near the last of July, nominate ticket of
high character and one which fifty repre-

s@We are afraid that the platform
adopted by the Conservatives of New Or
leans will do but little good. That plat
form seems to have sprung from delusion.
1t seems to have been promulgated under
the erroneous impression that the alleged
hostility of the Southern whites to the ne
gro was the real cause of the Administra-
TONS wrath. This is certainly mistake.
The alleged prejudice is merely a pretext
which the Administration has used as an
excuse for its cruel oppression; and the
resolutions will by no means appease the
angry god of discord at Washington. 1t
is the cohesive power Of plumber" that
forms the combination against the people
of Louisiana, and that cohesive power will
hardly be broken by any set ofresolutions
that can be adopted. The State, if free
from the bayonets of the Federal Govern
ment, could get rid Of the robbers that are
preying on her vitals, and until she gets
rid ofthese bayonets she can not get rid of
the robbers. All concessions to lawless
power only stimulate new exactions. Civ
ility to bully emboldens him. The Ad-
minlstratlon has no bowels of compassion,
and it is not going to unfetter the limbs of
a State merely upon the promises of plat
form. Its malignity is too deep for that.
1t has gotten the taste of blood, and the
life of the victim is gone unless the public
sentiment of the North chokes it off,
Compromises with oppression are idle and
futile. AS well try to hold tiger by the
tooth or raging lion by the paw as at
tempt to subdne tyranny by concession

Grant, died at his residence in Covington,
Kentucky, Sunday last. He was very old
man, and his death resulted more from
natural debility than acute disease. The

az 1t is already given out that an eff
fort to revive the ranking privilege will
be made at the next session of Congress-
In order to form basis for such crab-like
action, certain officials in Washington are
preparing and publishing articles to prove
that the new postal regulation will not
save money for the government. They an
nounce, in an er-cGthedrG manner, that be-
tween seven hundred thousand and mil
lion dollars will be expended in supplying
Federal officials with scales on which to
weigh their mail matter, and for printing
circulars of instructions, and engraving
printing and forwarding postage stamps,
ETC., to officers at distant points. They
also maintain that at most the abuse of the
franking privilegeinvolved an expenditure
by the government of not exceeding three
hundred thousand dollars per year, and
that after supplying the wants of the vari-
Gus Federal departments, and such indi-
Viduals as may be entitled to postage
stamps at government expense, it will be
found that there will be no saving to the
government by the abolition of the priv
lege. These are statements made for a
particular purpose, and that bad one,
and should not be accepted.-Phild. Age
