DrsGRAcEFUL FIGHT AT Mt. WAsHINGToN.-
On Saturday, Oct oath, while an old gentle
man was returning home from market, and had
Just reached the new bridge that crosses the
Falls opposite Mt. Washington, he was attack
ed by burly character by the name of Harris.
1t appears that an old grudge existed between
Harris and the old gentleman whose name was
not ascertaned. Harris stopped his wagon on
the bridge, and some harsh words passed be-
tween him and the old gentleman after which
they both alighted from their wagons and en-
gagged in a rough and tumble fight, the old man
putting "Mansard roof over the eve of his
antagonist. The old gentleman, however, re-
ceived severe pummeling al the hands of his
more powerful antagonist, when assistance

LAYING Our STREETS IN THE COUNTY. The
County Commissioners advertise for proposals
to lay out streets in Baltimore county. The
section for which the proposals are invited lies
between the Hartford turn pike on the east and
point 1870 feet westerly from the intersec-
ton of the Reisterstown road and the north
boundary line of Baltimore city on the west,
and extends northerly at distances varying
from 5000 feet to two miles from the northern
boundary line. The section of the city indca-
ted above embraces portion of the county on
which preliminary surveys for streets have al
ready been made, and which were not returned,
owing to the Office of the Street Commissioners
of Baltimore county having been abolished by
an act of the Legislature before the survey had
beer completed. 1t is understood that the ac-
ton of the Com missoners is in accordance with
the desire of many citizens living in the district
above named, who in making improvements
can thus tell upon what streets their improve
ments will be, and also that some benefit may
be derived from the money already expended.

SMALL BILLs.--We fully endorse the follow
ing from an exchange: "While no doubt we
must wait for the hard times to right them
selves, yet there is enc plan which, if acted up
on, would do much toward setting the machine
ry OF business again in motion. We are all
more or less dependent one upon the other. A
looks to B for the money with which to pay his
obligations or increase his business. B is only
waiting until C and D take up the note or pay
the interest which has been so long over due
They in turn are unable to collect what is ow-
ing them and so it goes. This is undoubtedly
the condition of a ma ority of our business men,
but there are great many who 1--WE but little,
and could pay if they were only so inclined,
and it is of such as these we speak.
Often it is only pure thoughtlessness that is
at fault for this, or the mistaken idea that such
a small amount will make but little difference.
1t is just there that the mistake lies. 1t is the
inability to collect their small bills that pr vent
the enlargement of their stock by the retail
dealers. and this, OF course, affects the whole
sale firms on whom manufacturers depend. The
situation resembles what lumbermen call a
'jam,' where single log will often check the
passage of thousands. Only a slight, but very
necessary appropriation of force may be neces-
sary to remove the obstruction and open the
channel; and in the same way the payment of
so small sum as a S. bill may be the one
thing needed to relieve the necessities of great
many persons. Then pay your small bills, and
be assured that in one way or another, you will
reap the benefit of so doing"

from one OF the partners and commenced tr
play faro. Luck run against the bank and at

luck was still against the bank and in favor of
the county gentleman, at } o'clock he prupri
etors refused to deal any more aud the gentle
man from the county walked out OF the saloon
a rich man to the neof $4,000. This is con.
sidered in gambling circles the largest win

of years in Baltimore"
