FOUNDING TRAPPIsr MONASTERY IN MARY
LAND.-The severe Order of Trappist Monks
has sent an agent to this country in the person
of Brother Francis de Sales, who has been
commissioned to purchase property in the
State of Maryland, where it is proposed to
erect IA monastery and furnish it with grounds
sufficiently extensive for the pursuit of agricul-
ture, which is an important industry among
the monks of La Trappe. Two hundred monks,
taken from monasteries in Ireland, France and
Turkey, will occupy house which Brother
Francis de Sales will temporarily rent, so that
during the erection of the monastery and the
laying out of the grounds the newly arrived
monks may make themselves familiar with the
customs of the country. They are expected to
arrive about December l. The rules which
bind the Trappsts are very stringent. Con-
slant silence is one of their vows. They are
permitted to eat no other food than vegetables
and bread, water alone being allowed for drink.
They sleep in their habit, or gown, on \ low
pallet, and their bedroom is IL small square in
closure, formed by curtains. The bell-ringer
arouses them at two o'clock every morning,
and after the few minutes allowed for their
prayers at waking, another bell bids them fall
into line and move in solemn silence to their
chapel. They toll unremittingly throughout
the hours when prayer and other devotions are
not in progress. All the branches of this
Brotherhood are self-supporting, and sufficient
funds will be at hand to aid Brother Francis
de Sales in his new enterprise. He is very hope
full of the success Of his undertaking.-N. Y.

Fined and Committed.

Ignatius Smallwood, a eolored boy about
twenty years of age, was committed to Jail
few days since by Justice Smoot for non pay
ment of fine for assault upon Mr.. George
Spalding, who, with Mr.. B. Mudd, owns joint
ly and resides on farm near Newport, in this
county. The cause of the trouble was the loan
of a knife by Spalding to the negro, who failed
to return it when asked a third time to do so.
When asked for the knife the last time Small
wood became very inSolent to Mr.. Spalding,
using very harsh language. Upon this the
latter struck the inSolent fellow a light blow.
This caused him to fiy into a violent rage and
seizing tobacco stick feled Spalding to the
ground. He then desisted and Spalding stag
gering from the effects of the blows, went into
the house and afterwards mounted his horse
and rode over to Justice Shoots residence,
short distance only from his own home. As
he was about to ride off, the negro again used
abusive language with threats and dared him
to return. Spalding's arm was skinned from
the wrist to the elbow in warding off the first
back of the head. The injuries received we
are glad to learn are not of dangerous char
acter. Smaliwood, who had secreted himself
until next morning after the affray, which took
place on the 18th instant then gave himself up
10 officer Herbert, and under warrant of ar
rest was taken before Justice Smoot, who fined
him fifty dollars and costs. In default of pay
ment o1ecurity for the same he was commit
ted to JAIL where he will probably have time
to reflect upon the folly of letting his angry
passions rise when asked civiily for the return
of a borrowed knife.

stand that sort of business. If We encourage
you, all sorts of people will be having illimit-
able quantities of children just on purpose to
excite public sympathy. We are willing to
endorse for fellow up to the standard number
of seven, but beyond that positively we will
not go. So you might as well give up that

We hear very general complaint from all
parts of the county about the condition of the
tobacco crop, which, since the rainy season has
been s'fringn badly, and making ground
leaf rapidly. At one time it thought
that the tabacco crop in this county would be
very heavy, but owing to unfavorable weather
this expectation will fall farshor of realization,
and the yield will not be more than three
fourths of an average crop Cdlvert Journal.
