The announcement that S. Tcackle Wallis
will be the candidate for attorney general
in opposition to Charles ]. NJ. Gwinn, recalls
the fact that those gentlemen have before
been political competitors for office. In 1851
the Democratic nominee for States attorney
was Charles j. M. Gwinn Wing nominee
for the same office, Coleman Yellott, and S.
Teackle Wallis was the candidate for States
attorney of "the balance.of-power party
which was made up from both the Wing and
Democrats.
In the address recommending their ticket
to the people some OF the principal reasons
which impelled them to their course are Civ
en-. 1t states that for some years two great
political parties, known as Democrat and
Wing, had existed, and under one or the
other banner the people had arranged them
selves in their selection of federal, State and
municipal officers. Nominating conventions,
supposed to speak the will of the people, are
charged with intideity in discharging the
trusts committed to them. With state of
things such as were then presented, it states
devotion to our country demands duty
from which we may not turn aside" The
address continues: $50 long as men can be
induced TO barter away the guides of an en-
lightened conscience, and blindly follow the
dictates of corrupt party leaders, so long will
rapacious and designing aspirants be success
full, and so long rs they are successful will
our halls oflegisation be pandemoniums and
our temples of justice the dwelling places of
corruption and infamy. In these remarks it
is not intended to include all the gentlemen
in nomination who are not embraced in this
ticket, but that there are nominations by
both parties not fit TO be made"
The address reads very much like cam
paign document of the present day, contain
ing, as it does, the same sort of clap trap in
tended to mislead voters and break down the
Democratic party. A "workingmcn's party
which charged that the leading spirits of
both Democrat and Wing parties always
showed criminal neglect Of the interests of
the poor man." also put ticket in the field,
made up, however, mainly of the balance of
power" nominees. The canvass was warm.
ly contested throughout. The result was
the election of Gwinn by majority of GA
over both Gellott and Wallis.

BURIED ALIVE IN A WELI.-A PROMPT
REscUE.-On Thursday morning at seven
O'Clock, n young man named John Brown
. went into well on the premises of August
knolier Ill Bel Air, for the purpose of bring
ing up bucket which had fallen down
When about half way down two small stones
became detached from the sides, and in a
second the entire wall above tumbled in up
on him. His brother, who was at the mouth
of the well, gave the ALARM and in n few
moments it spread and the citizens rushed to
the rescue. One Of the first to reach the spot
was Barney Dunegan, who with Peter Car
roll Immediately descended the well, and
aided by those above began to remove the
stones, by means ofropcs and small buckets.
In the meantime it was ascertaned that
Brown was still alive, as he could be heard
calling to those above, who encouraged him
by the promise of speedy relief The small
buckets were too slow process entirely,
and accordingly well buckets were brought,
a rope and pulley rugged, and the work OF re-
moving the stones progressed rapidly. The
arrival of Frank Carter, an experienced well
digger, was fortunate. lie Immediately went
down and relieved some of those who were
at work in the we'll 1t was nee ssary to
proceed cautiously, as it was supposed that
the stones had lodged against the pump stock
and thus formed a sort of arch which might
be broken and the man crushed to death
instantly. There were strong arms, willing
hearts and cool heads among those who gave
their assistance, and although the utmost ex-
petition was used it was three hours and
quarter before Brown was reached. He
was found clinging to the pump stock, the
stones having rested upon his head and back
He was greatly exhausted but was carried in
to the house and restoratives applied. 1t was
found that he was slightly cut and bruised
about the head and body, but no bones were
broken. The shock to his nervous SYSTEM
from having been buried alive for three
hours and q quarter, was very severe.
In few hours he had recovered sufficient
emily to be able to walk to his boarding
house and cat hearty dinner. The
well is twenty feet deep, and it is estima-
tee. that at least twenty tons of stones were
piled above him. The accident was fright
full and his escape from death remarkable
The promptness with which our citizens
came TO The rescue, and the earnestness of
their efforts for the relief of the young man
is an honor to them. Mr.. Brown is employ
ed as a carriage painter for John Hanna &
Bro. He has only been living in Bel Air u
few months, having come here from Phila-
delphia.

accordingly Constable Charshee arrested the

We cannot too highly commend the beau
tiful custom, thus inaugurated, of teaching
children to take an interest in the cultivation
of flowers. Certainly there is nothing that
will tend more to refine and elevate their
tastes, while at the same time it will afford
them employment for many an idle moment
which might be less probably spent.

the yield per acre would be one of the best,
Notwithstanding the losses by overflow of

such losses proving less than the usual DANA

have greatly benefited the crop on drier and
higher soils. Nearly everywhere corn is late

case has excited considerable interest and
sympathy, and subscriptions have been made
