CORRESPONDENCE OF THE EGIS,
Darlington Affairs.

We had quite cold snap on Sunday, the 18th
inst, which lasted throughout the day, that
made us feel like fire would be great comfort,
and think you could clearly see smoke from
every chimney in the village.

We have been blessed with rain lately, which
has been great help to farmers. The county
was visited by refreshing shower on Monday,

we have very little prospects of although ii may
turn out better than We anticipate. Pasture is
very poor. 1t is as hard on horse looking for

day. What will say of potatoes? Well, they
look very well, considering the buggy season.
You can see men and boys every day searching
for the troublesome beetle.

The End Of the War.

1t Is reported that the Pennsylvania Rail-
road has consented to grant the just and rea-
sonable demands of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad in regard to the right of way over
its New Jersey lines to New York, and that
an arrangement has been made, through the
instrumentality of John King, Jr., Esq, Vice
President of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road, and Col. Scott President of the Penn
sylvania Railroad, in which the advantages
to Baltimore of its geographical position are
fully recognized and secured.
The beginning of this contest was the re
fusal of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad to
enter into the Saratoga Compact" mea.
sure intended to combine the great trunk
lines Of the country into league, the object
Of which was TO impose tariff of rates up
on the business of the country which would
have been most onerous and oppressive, more
particularly upon the great agricultural
interests of the west and northwest.
For refusing to enter into this unjust CON-
bination, the B. & o. r. r. incurred the hos
tility ofthe northern lines, and the war com.
menced and has now lasted about four months
long enough to convince the opponents of
our great work that they were inficting Sc.
rious damage upon themselves, while the
object of their attacks was unscathed.
We can now see and appreciate the results
of the policy of the B. Sc o. r. r., as devel-
oped by this conflict. The city of Baltimore
takes rank as one Of the greatest commercial
emporiums Of the country, destined 10 in
crease in wealth and prosperity far beyond
the previous expectations of its most san
guine friends. Every day its merchants are
adding to their customers from the west,
northwest and south. Its manufactures have
been greatly increased, those already estab-
lished being extended and new ones com.
menced. Steamship lines, both foreign and
coastwise, have been added to its commerce,
and new lines are contemplated. Large in
vestments are being made by foreign capital
lists in its suburban territory, looking TO the
early and rapid expansion of its limits. Ina
word, the benefits resulting from the policy
which has been pursued by the B. s. o. r.
r., to both the State of Maryland and the
city Of Baltimore are incalculable, and not
only to our State and city, but to the entire
business interests of the country. 1t has
preserved the West from the effects of sys-
TEN which would have been most destructive
to its principal industries and has secured
for its people what they so justly and prop
erly demanded-a means of transportation
for themselves and their products to the At
lantic seaboard, ut fair and reasonable rates.

AccIDENTs.-On Thursday night of last
week as MIR. Silas Silver was returning home
from Bel Air, driving spirited pair of
young horses, n bolt came out of the shafts,
as they were ascending the hill between By
NUNS run and Fountain Green, causing the
horses to vcer around suddenly to The left.
In doing so the carriage was upset and
broken, Mr.. Silver and Mr. Z. NJ. Allen, the
other occupant of the vehicle being thrown
out. The former was not hurt, but Mr..
Allen was considerably bruiscl. The horses
ran with the broken carriage, and collided
with Mr.. Aliens buggy, which was just in
front, tearing off one of the hind wheels and
throwing Mr.. Aliens son, who was driving,
out upon the road. The lads foot became
fastened in one of the wheels, and he was
unable to move. Mr.. Thomas A. Hays, was
driving in the lead, and heard the noise in
time to pull out of the way of the runaway
horses. When he had secured his horses he
went back and released young Allen, who,
fortunately, was not seriously hurt. The
ses hePI oli' sllc"lhS thc Nlccks oI lhe
carriage along the roadside. Mr.. Silver
borrowed horse from Mr. r. j. Rogers and
thus got home. The next morning the
horses were found in the woods near Mount
Zion church, uniniured, with the carriage
tongue near by.
On the same evening, as Mr.. Edward ].
Snow was returning home from Bel Air his
horse ran away, upsetting the carriage and
throwing the occupants cut. No serious
damage, however, resulted.

"Here, the Grand Jury of Hartford county,
convened at the next preceding term of
Court to the first of May, 1875, in their re.
port to the Court, and which is made an ex-
hibit in the case, stated, that, as there were
many persons whom they could not consci-
entiously recommend for licenses to sell
spirituous liquors, and not aoisting 10 discrimi.
nate, they had determined not to recommend
any of the applicants for such licenses. This
was clearly not in accordance with the spirit
and intent of the law. AS between proper
and improper persons 10 receive licenses, it
was the duty of the jury to discriminate with
justice and impartiality. To procure such
discrimination was the real object of the
law"
In all other counties in the State included
in the operation of the law, the grand jurios
acted in accordance with the above views of
the Court of Appeals and were charged and
Instructed by the court so to do, In Hartford
county, however, no instructions were given
them, and they were consequently left to
their own Interpretation of the statute.

PROBABLE FATAL RESULT OF RECKLESS PLOTTING.
AS the steamer Twilight plying between this city and
Long Branch, started her morning trip yesterday
the steamer NorthGcld, Of the Staten Island line left
her dock Seeing the Twilight the pilot Of the North
field with the usual caroesness and reckless disregard
for human life that characterize those public servants
undertook to with the Twilight running over
mile out OF her in her efforts to beat the Long
Branch boat After entering the Narrows the North
field made an attempt to the bow Of the Twilight
but failed Of success. The speed at which she was
going was so great that she could not ho
stopped in time to prevent collision. Her
bow struck the Twilight on her port after quarter,
tearing away her after rails and smashing in her
windows The Twilight had large number Of passen-
gers on board and It is great wonder that many Of
them were not hurt or killed Fortunately only one
person was injured. When the collision occurred the
passengers at once became panicstricken and made
rush for the forward part of the boat Among them was
Mr. Saxon, Of New York. This gentleman unfor-
tunatcy caught up In the rush Of frightened passengers
and crushed against the upright tmbers Of the forward
deck. and so badly injured internally that the blood
gushed out Of his mouth II is feared the injury will
prove fatal Upon reaching the Branch Mr. Saxon
taken ashore and medical attendance procured.
