Mr. EDrroR Having had the good fortune
TO be present in the Circuit Court OF the
District OF Columbia during the trial of
cause in which the female LAWYER Mrs. Lock
wood appeared as counsel for the plaintiff,
and being quite attracted by The novelty OF
the scene, your correspondent desires 10 lay
before your readers d brief outline of the per-
son known as Mrs. LawA er Lockwood, togeth-
er with one or two other little observations OF
the city.
Just before the conclusion OF recess, the fe-
male lawyer prancei into the room in the act
of wipng her mouth, apparently having re-
Gently iunched. In few minutes court was
called, and a witness taking the stand, Mrs
l.. resumed the examination and during the
process of the trial we noted the following
points in her appearance She is rather
stout, slightly under the ordinary female height,
with brown hair tucked up with high orna-
mental tortoise shell comb, hord face, round
features, and good skin, eyes brown, express
sion tolerably good, but not very intellectual
or handsome. She was atiired in dress of
gray, Imitation of mohair, with basque polo
naise trimmed with black lace ruffie Illusion
collar, and large carleton bow with natural
flowers at the neck Tut no jewelry. On the
right side of the head was spray of white Ii
lac sticking in the hair and around her waist
she wore black velvet belt with large bur-
nished double buckle in front" At the end
OF the examination she left her seat and took
favorable position at the right hand corner of
the Clerks desk, and which is immediately in
front of the bench, and she faced the jury,
which was composed of four negroes and eight
white men. The madam made tolerably
fair opening statement, with a considerable
frequency of hens by way of relief to her en-
barrassment, but unaccompanied by any ora
torical or drsmatical gesticualion, whatever,
uo,hing hut an occasional raising and lower
ing of the hand which lay on the desk. We
did not learn whether she has been mother
as well as wife, but her general appearance
is much better adapted 70 the maternal duties
of the domestic freside than the forensic
arena. On the whole she looked painfully
out of her element. II seems to us that upon
/ hearing the character Of female lawyer, one
would naturally take the impression that she
must be hard featured and angular, but such

oh, Molle, my darling, thou art gone before US,
From this weary world Of pain,
Beyond life's troubled sea, and there
To meet your Saviour with whom 10 reign
For thou art calmly sleeping,
In the cold and silent tomb,
And we are left here weeping,
In this dark world of gloom.
For tears and signs in vain are often wept,
And the eyes that once so gently watched US,
Now are closed, AS if she but softly slept
In the realms Of joy and everlasting happiness
How you suffered little darling,
Oh how painful none can tell
But at your lot though III not murmur.
Fur God doeih all things well.

The Baltimore Sun, in regard TO the decision
rendered by the Supreme Court of the United
States against the Baltimore and Ohio r. r.,
in the favor of the State of Maryland says,
"We learn from Annapolis that the Baltimore
AND Ohio Railroad Company paid into the
State treasury on Tuesday last the sum of
$i24, 229, 81, in satisfaction of the judgment
rendered against the company by the late de-
cison of the United States Supreme Court on
tue claim of the State for one fifth OF the gross
receipts from passengers on the Washington
Branch road up TO January, 1870. As here
tofore stated, suits are pending 10 discover the
amount claimed to be owing from The compa-
ny, under the State law granting the charter,
FOR some proportion of passenger receipts on
the branch road from that date The money
now paid over is a very handsome ac-
cession to the funds OF the State al this
time. The road, il is known, has claim
npon the State 10 the amount of about $500,
900 Tor premiums on gold in paying the States
interest in London during the war, which, OF
course, it will ask the Legislature at its
further claims of the bonus on passenger re-
eeipts, when, indeed, il is supposed the whole
question Of the continuance or relense of this
exaction will come up, in view of the fact thai
the rival road, the Baltimore and Potomac, is
not subject 10 such payment"

A MONTGOMERY INVENTION.

EplroR SENTINEL The farmers in the neigh
borhood OF Sandy Spring and Brookeyile
have been very much interested the present
season in Il corn planter, invented by Mr..
Zach. Waters. Mr.. w. is one Of our best
farmers, and only an amateur mechanic aud
feeling in his own farming operations that a
machine ought to be invented 10 aid US at this
very busy time of year, has been for several
years past deviSing and pertecting his present
implement.
il is a complete success. II is of moderate
weight, simple 10 mechanism and durable in
its construction. A pair of horses one man
and one boy, did in my field exactly what two
horses, four men and three boys had been
doing in another part of the same field. The
ground is prepared as usual The machine
opens furroS, drops On an average five
grains OF corn, the fertilizer is spread over the
corn, and then it is covered. The whole OPP
Grafton is admirably performed. the furrow
being opened at uniform depth, and the
ground lief; light and in good condition.
Moreover the rows are the same distance apart,
and the corn at equal distances in the row.
The fertilizer is spread evenly over the corn
and not, as is often the case when dropped by
the hand, in a heap. 1t will drop any of the
bought fertilizers, plaster and ashes, and even
homemade compost. No practical farmer, so
far as have heard has seen it at WORK with
out being pleased with its operation.
Mr. Waters does not manufacture them,
there being but the one machine, and be has
not made out the probable cost. II they
could be introduced at a moderate price they
would be a valuable addition to the now ne
cessary tools of the farmer. should state
that il drops but one at time, and can
he used to Checker" or TO plant but one
way, as the operator may wish.
This article is written without the consent
of Mr. Waters and 10 draw the attention of
our citizens to a most ingenious and meritori-
Gus invention.

DEATH OF GEN BREoklNnIDer Gen. Breck
inridgc came out of the war with shattered
health, and his death at the early age Of fifty
four will not surprise those who knew how
completely his constitution had oeen wrecked
by the wounds, ialigues, privations and ex
citemenls Of his military career. He entered
public life when quite young man; his ca
Ieer was brilliant and emineully successful
lie was born at Lexington, Ky, on the 10th
of February 1921, was educated al Centre
College, studied law, and began the practice
oil his profession in Burlington, Iowa. Re-
turning 10 his native State, he went with the
First Kentucky Volunteers to Mexico, aud was
commissioned Major. VIXEN Gen. Pillow was
court marialed Major Breckenridge acted as
his counsel. In 1851 he was elected to Con-
gress from the Ashland district, and the fol-
lowing year he delivered an eulogy on Henry
Clay that gave him grea, reputation as an
orator. Tie served two terms in Congress, and
was then nominated for The office of Vice
President the ticket with james Buchanan
and was elected He had barely attained his
thirty-siX year when he was indicted into the
second Office in the gift Of his couutrymen.
Mr., Breckenridge was recognized leader in
the Southern wing OF the Democratic party,
and was put forward as their candidate for
President in 1860. The nomination of Mr..
Douglass at Charleston caused a split in the
Convention, which resulted in the nomination
Of Mr.. Breckinridge ms rival candidate for
The Presidency. The boilers met al Richmond
GA the llth Of June, 1861 and then adjourned
10 meet in Baltimore on the 2sth CT the same
month. The Convention met in the ball of
the MARYLAND Institute on that day, aud John
G. Breckenridge was nominated for President
and Joseph Lane for Vice President, on the
first ballot by an unanimous vote. In the
election that ensued this ticket was successful
in all the Southern States except Virginia,
Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri, but lost
all the Norihern States. Defeated for Presi-
dent, Mr. Breck inridge was elected TO succeed
Mr. Crittenden in the United States Senate,
taking his seat on the 9Th of March, 1861
Although a pronounced Secessionisi, he did
not go out with the other Southern Senator;
who threw off their allegiance to the old Gov.
ernment and joined their fortunes with The
new Confederacy. In July, .s6l, he resigned,
however, and returning to Kentucky made an
ineffective effort TO get her to go with the
South. lie soon afterwards went iRte the
lines Of the Confederaey and was made a
Maior-Geueral. lie participated 10 a number
Of battles in the Southwest, and received Sc
we're wound, which probably WAS the cause OF
his death twelve years afterwards In 1864
he was transferred to the Department of Nir-
GINA. and had command of the corps that de-
feaied Gen Hunter at Lynehburg. Since the
war Gen. Breckinridge has lived in compare
tive retirement, and has hcld no public position.
