Nessrs. Editors The progress of ed.
ucation in our schools is certainly very
encouraging, if l can Judge from what
l have seen myself and gathered from
other sources. BY special invitation,
assisted at the examination of the pu-
pills Of Public School No. 2, under the
supervision of Mrs. Ann K. Cecil, in
which the children acquitted themselves
in n most admirable manner, that
showed very plainly their instruction
has been conducted strictly upon the
principles and regulations laid down by
the State Board of education, every
question being answered with prompt
ness and decision. After the examina-
ton we were entertained BY an intro
dactorv address by Miss Mamie Clarke
which was delivered in . clear and dis
tinct tone, that did credit 20 herself and
teacher; next followed . trilogy by Miss
Mamie Clarke, Miss Maggie Goodwin
and Miss Mary Hammett, which was
well performed and very entertaining.
The performances. being over, a sump-
tucas dinner was served. and notwith-
standing the showery afternoon. passed

How n Has BEEN REcxrvRD.-The
bitter antagonism which outeropped
during the late heated canvass for the
gubsrnstorial nomination, amoag the
in6amed and injudicious advocates Of
the respective aspirants for State hon
ors, made many good people suppose
that there would be bolt, no matter
what nigh. be the voice Of the Conven-
ton. The opposition was particularly
elated at the prospective split in our
ranks and invested largely in. the pros
pect. The fond hopes cherished" how
ever, have come to grief, the democrat
ie following throughout the entire State
having already scaled truce" among
themselves and wheeled with united
front upon the enemy. A divided dem
ocracy, Earring and waring within itself,
was the last hope, the last card, of des-
perate republicanism in our State, and
even this has been played, and now there
is nothing left for our friends but to die.
Exactly what will succeed to their trust
and places, it is. hard to conjecture,
but present indications strongly favor
the revival in our State at an early day
of the hateful fungus of long-buried
Know Nothingism. So be it.

Our RAILROAD OuTLoox.-AW Wash
ington Correspondent Of the BEACON,
writing under date of the End instant,
informs US that the magnates of the
S. Nd. Railroad have been brought to
grief. He states that receivers have
been appointed to take charge of the
property of the Company and that in
functions have been served on Col Smoot
and others not to sell any more cross
ties nor to dispose of any Southern Md.
r. r. Bonds that they may have now
in their possession. These proceedings,
he goes on to state, were rendered ne
cessary BY the extraordinary course
adopted by President Smoot, who claimed
all the cross ties as his individual prop
erty and was about making sale Of them

Company. cit gives me pleasure"
continues our correspondent, "to state,
that, previous to any injunction hav.
ing been issued or served on his company,
Gov. Oden Bowie, on being apprised of
Shoots proceedings by Mr. Callahan,
wrote peremptory order to the subor-
dinates Of his company, forbidding the
receiving from Smoot of any property
OF the S. Md. Company. Gov. Bowie
has acted in this matter with great
peomptitude aud il entitled to the thanks
and gratitude Of Southern Maryland

it would be indecorous in me to enter
into the details and particulars of the

ties, you can, l suppose, have free ac-
cess to them and epitor,ize them if me-

pie Of Southern Maryland the absolute

way, and the real indebtedness of the
road ascertained, that responsible men,
willing to take hold of the road and
finish it to completion in six months
or less, would come forward. But, with
debt of sS5o,0oO hanging about its
neck, as asserted BY Col. Smoot, who
will be found so fool-hardy as to invest
their money in it, either rs stockholder
or bondholder? The receivers appoint.

Mr.. Frank N. Holmes.

petitive one, with q view to the award
ing Of premiums, and was conducted BY
Messrs. ]. G. and w. F. Perry and Il.
Clay Dent, Esq. The pupils acquitted
themselves most creditably in all the
branches, but in Grammar and Mathe-
matics, as far - studied, their knowl-
edge appeared to be perfect-under-
standing well how to apply the princi-
PIES of the latter branch to the ordina-

The vEaErAToR.-For uniform good
crops to be obtained by its application,
we think we can recommend Whitelock's
vegetator, advertised in our paper of
to-day. They claim to use none but
the very best material to manufacture
the article with integrity and to sell as
cheap as it can be sold, and the wide
spread reputation the Vegetator bears
seems TO substantiate this claim.

CoUxTx GRAxGE ORoANIxATI0x.-
We understand that the Master Of the
State Grange, Jos. +. Moore. Esq, q
Montgomery county, win visit our town
on Thursday. the 18th instant, for The
purpose Of organizing : County Grange.
70 which movement i've Oranges in tie
county have already given their assent
The Delegates from the several subor-
dinate Oranges are expected TO meet at
IL, .. m. on the day appointed The
County and District Grange oreu6iEa-
tons have, as we have been informed,
done good and excellent service in our
State during the short time Of their ex-
istence and we trust this movement,
nov On foot may have tie lilo result.
The time would seem 10 b propitious
for the attempt to reap the great ben
efits Of the Order in our midst. After
all is said, the great advantages of the
Grange movement, 20 far AZ its materi-
al aspect is concerned, may be summed
mp in the one and important thing Of
cash dealing. There il no business un-
der the SUN that would stand such risks
and such percentages off for credit as
the farmer is subjected to. The DIFF
ficulty Of getting out Of the old rut has
been thrown ON the generally prevailing
financial difficulties under which the
farmers labor. The prospect of abun-
dant crops and remunerative prices
would seem to open to them the way
they express wish to go, and which
alone win lead them to a state of finan-
cial prosperity. We have taken the
first step in organizing our subordinate
Granges--letus move on with our brother
farmers in their march towards the state
of well being which we all long for and
know to be attainable, but which must
ever ssmain in hope alone for us five do
not avail ourselves of the opportunities
offered to our acceptance. 1t would
seem that the County and District
Oranges are found to be a necessary part
of the machinery Of the Order-a neces-
sity springiug from increased growth
and strength. Let then the Patrons
throughout the county heartily unite
in the proposed organization, and, above
all. let them join in extending to the
worthy State Master a greeting that
will show we are thoroughly in earnest
in our work and appreciate the frater.
nal tie that underlies our Bond of Union
