LOCAL FFAIRS-


Logon LICENSE GRANTED. Some lime since
application was made to e. y. Prettyman,
Clerk Of the Circuit Court for this county, by
Mr. August l.. Graeves, for a license to sell
spirituous liquors, Mt Sligo, in Berry's Dis
irict Under The law for 1874, which requires
all such applicants 10 be recommended by the
Grand Jury which shall have been in session
at the Term preceding the first day of May in
each year, the Clerk refused TO grant such
license, the applicant having no such recon-
mendaton. At the last Term of Court appli-
cation was made for a writ of mandamus to
compel the CLERK to issue said license, and
after consideration the Court decided that as
the law did not go into effect until after it
was approved on the 18th of April last, and
The Grand Jury which had been in session at
the Term next proceeding the LIST of May in
that year having been discharged before that
time and the law cannot be made retroactive,
and that the Clerk was bound to issue the Ii
cense
By this dec sion Of the Court it will be seen
that license for the sale of liquors can be grant
ed in this county up to the lst of May; but
on and after thai date oil applicants will have
to be recommended to The Clerk by the Grand
Jury at the March Term of Court.

RAILROAD LEAsE.-A correspondent writing
TO the Baltimore Sun from Frederick city, Md,
says: "a lease OF the Frederick and Penn
sylvania Line railroad was consummated yes
terday in Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania Cen
trail Railroad Company being the lessee. The
terms of the lease have not yet fully transpired,
bnt it is understood that the Pennsy lvania
company guarantee the payment of the inter
est on the bonded debt, which is $500, 1000,
and assume the floating debt of the road, est-
mated at upwards Of $l40, 0oc.
In this connection we should add that a
delegation of prominent capitalists from Phia-
delphia were 10 this city yesterday for the
purpose of negotiating u lease Of the same road,
but from the foregoing it appears that these
last named parties were too laie, The Penn
sylvania road having already consummated
its negotiation, and will take possession Of the
road January 4, 1875. 1t is generally believed
that the road will shortly be extended to
Washington.

Pooh LOUISIANA. --Esew here in our paper
will be found a synopsis Of the startling news
received In regard to the condition Of this OPP
pressed and down-trodden State. From This
intelligence it will be seen that the people Of
that State are now deprived of the blessings Of
civil government and placed under the heel Of
that military cut-throat, Sheridan, who bold
~ asks his master, Grant, 10 give him power
TO arrest and execute all persons be may choose
without conviction by due form Of law. AS
matters look now ii well behooves the people
Of the other States to ask themselves the i'm
portant question: How long will II be before
we shall be In he sane condition IF one
State can Be placed at the mercy of a military
satrap personal liberty and constitutional gov
erument are at end. The following noble
words Of the Baltimore Gazette, will find re-
sponse in the heart Of every true man in the
country
a We have now come 10 that point when
every member OF the opposition, in both
Houses Of Congress, must take united action
1t is incumbent on them 10 meet nj once and
demand Of the President the immediate recall
of Sheridan and the dismissal Of Williams from
the Attorney Generalshp. If this is denied,
they should draw up articles Of impeachment
against Grant, and issue an appeal 10 the
country. II we have not mistaken the temper
Of the people--noi only in the Middle States,
but TT the North and Wcst--the response
would be prompt and the support overwhelm-
ing. Already meetings are contemplated In
the larger cities, and Sherdnn's brutal tee-
gram ought TO stimulate to action even those
who as yet but dimly apprehend IFS sangninary
meaning. Already, too, every decent Repub-
lican Journal throughout the country is pro-
testing rs strongly as those of Democratic in
clinings against the infamous course which is
being pursued to hold Louisiana in subsection.
There is cause for something more than pro-
test; and ifthere any manhood leftamong us,
there will be, before long, such a popular up
rising as will admonish Grant that he has
grossly violated the duties Of his great Office;
strip the shoulder-straps from Sheridan, and
SKATER to fragments the conspiracy that has
its foundation-head at Washington, and its
chief agents in the Senate and among the
habitues of the White House."

The year i, diving, soberly the trees
Arc mellow Ing with dull sad face
They lean against tae sadness Of the sky;
TIE alors OF the summer has gone by,
Gone is the smile OF piadness from the place
O sad to see the sun come laterup
And sad 10 see him pass betimes away,
And sad the paid glints he throws across
The leafsnewn garden; sad the sense OF LOGS
the al .peryading fragrance OF decay
Yet at the open window, as sit
With closed eyes aud hear the gentle rain
Fall on the damp green earth Ike lovers signs,
And feel the breath Of earth uprise
From far and near. from bullock and from plain
The same soft drip Of lightly falling showers,
Upon the moss greens growing everywhere,
The same strange Silly warmness in the HIT
The cawing ofthe rocks, the gentle diift
OF odorous distillings in the air.
Dafodils growing on tie fields green breast,
Buds all a.blow, and the enchanted breath
OF viole.s peeping in the damp hedgerow,
Kindled to being o mystery, that so
Death looks like life, and life so liketo death
