proves that Mr.. Willard adhered to his

Those who htve seen Mr.. Camp in the

high wind blowing at the time the flames
were speedily communicated to the house
which was entirely destroyed, together with
its contents, including between $40 and
$50. The entire contents of the barn we're
also consumed by the devouring element,
including 70 bushels Of wheat, 80 barrels
Of corn, lot Of bay, &c. All the bacon In
the smoke house was burnt up except Ave

farming implements were destroyed, The
horses and cattle were saved with the
exception Of a calf, A dog was also burnt
up. The wind was blowing at fearful

The Annapolis correspondent Of the
Baltimore Aniericda, under date Of Apr
l, says:
Mr.. Berrys bill regulating the toll
through the Baltimore aud Potomac Rail
road tunnel, making the rate not exceed
ing Eve cents per ton for every mile o.
proportiouatc part Of q mile, for both tolli
and transportation, and for passengers, no
exceeding FIVE cents per mile or proper
tionate part Of mile for each passenger
was taken up to-day on its final passag'
and warmly debated. DR.. Henkle made
speech, protesting against the injustice Of
compelling the Company to give the use
of its tunnel at such rates as those pro
posed. The tunnel cost more than two
millions Of dollars-as much as one hun
dred miles of track, at 500, 900 mile ant
yet it Is proposed to give the use Of Thu
tunnel at the same rate as for the use Of q
mile Of ordinary railroad track. Messrs
Gill, Keech, Yanderford, and Stake, all
made strong speeches in favor Of the bill
arguing that il was the intent of the bill tc
reserve a reasonable rate Of tolls to Other
railroads. Mr.. Roby denounced the policy
of the railroad in the lower counties Of the
State the road to Pope's creek, was a
mere blind to the establishment of n
Southern line via Washington, for the
Pennsylvania Railroad, and for this pur-
pose the subscriptions of the lower counties
had been expended. Mr.. Stake pointed
out that this tunnel made connection for
the Pennsylvania Railroad for Southern
route, so that its benefits was distributed
along hundreds of miles of track, 50 that
it was not just to require road receiving
none of such benefit, to bear a proper
tionate amount Of the interest on the cost.
IL was declared that the intention Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad was to lay an
embargo on the Western Maryland Rail-
road, SO that it would be forced into bank
ruptcy, and it could buy il at low figure,
sacrificing the interests Of the city Of
Baltimore and Western Maryland, and
then enjoy the profitable trade which the
road would develop il Il had an outlet.
Mr. Turner defended the road, and his
arguments were attacked by Mr. Gill, who
declared that the Pennsylvania Railroad
always endeavored to take every advan-
tage it could in spite of its contracts, and
gave as an example. its contest with the
Union Railroad, forcing that road to put
down its tolls through its tunnel At the
same time it had the assurance to ask this

pocketbook s. note Of the bank, aud
laying i before the teller, requested its
payment. The teller said ave do not
pay our notes.n The tall, thin man, Who
Il now appeared, was John Randolph, put
on his spectacles and read the note in
high-keyed voice: aThe president and
directors Of the Mechanics bank promise
10 pay the bearer s5, value received. =

the teller; athe banks have suspended pay
