The TEA PARTY. The ladies in this neigh
borhood who are interested in the proposed
Lady Washington Reception and Tea Party
have nearly completed all their arrange
ments, and it only remains TO carry out
their designs successfully This, we doubt
not will be done. The time fixed for the af.
fair is Thursday, June 10Th. About twenty
five couples, representing the Republican
court at which the General and Lady Wash.
ington were the centre and chief attraction,
have signifled their acceptance of the invita-
ton TO be present
-Four large tea tables, sufficient to ac-
commodate all who may attend, will be
spread. These will be presided over by Ia
dies who know how to prepare and dispense
creature comforts. Lighter refreshments,
such as ice cream, &C., will also be furnished.
The representatives Of the men and women
of General Washington's day will be dressed
in costumes of the revolutionary period.
many of the ladies' dresses being the identi.
cal ones worn by the great grandmothers of
the mimic court, who were, in their own
day, the bellies of the period. The whole af.
fair promises 10 be brilliant one, and will
doubtless attract large assemblage.

Reports designed 10 injure my business hay.
ing been industrously circulated, Justice to
myself demands this method of discussing the
public mind and showing their utter falsity
1t has been asserted that the prices charged BY
me for collins are largely in excess of those of
other undertakes for the same grade of work
If these reports had had their origin with par
tics engaged in the same business or with those
for whom have worked, then there would have
existed no necessity for this denial of their
truth. But am convinced that they have been
conceived and circulated by persons whose ig-
norance of the business is only cxcelled by their
anxiety to injure me. My published price list
is misquoted to prove that take advantage of
the necessities of the unfortunate by exorbi.
tant charges for collins.
ask of the public a candid examination of
that list before pronouncing judgment. 1t will
DC seen by reference thereto that l furnish a
plain, neatly furnished walnut coffin, adult size,
with box, for SIS and upwards to S35, the latter
price being charged when extra trimmings and
six bar handles are used. limo case is higher
price charged unless more richly trimmed
coffin is positively ordered. Let these prices
be compared with those of Other undertakes,
and the style of the workmanship and value of
the trimming be considered, and, to an unpre-
JUDGED mind the charge of eXtertion will need
no further denial.
Keeping on hand supply of costly material,
such rs breast.plates, half-round silver mould
ing, silk-head lining, silk tassels and silver
fringe, | am prepared, when ordered, TO fur
nish collins with any or all of these trimmings
Any one at all acquainted with the price of
such materials will readily understand that
their use must largely increase the price of q

prepared to furnish work of any grade as good
dad as cheap rs it can be had any where.

INVESTMENTS SoUaHT-The New York
San says that what may be called an invest
ors' panic prevails in Wall street. Capital
lists are Mt their wits end to find sound in
yestmcnts which will yield them even a
moderate rate of interest. The trust compa-
mics are paying only three per cent, on
deposits. Good bonds and mortgages are not
to be had. First-class seven per cent. rail
road securities are commanding from ten TO
twelve per cent. premium. The skies of New
York city and State are from two to ten per
cent. above par, and the currency skies of the
United States, having twenty years to run
and with but three months accrued interest
sell at about 1875. In this last case the pur.
chaser gets less than fiyeper cent. per annum
Tor his investment while it continues, and
when it comes TO be paid off will lose the
twenty-five per cent. premium, so that his net
income will be less than four and half per
cent. per annum. Yet in the face of this con-
dilion of things the nation is obliged 10 go
ON paying six per cent. per annum in gold
on about $500, 100000, which 1t has the right
to pay off at any moment!

Items of Interest.

The Sheriff of Caroline county can rest
quietly at night. The Jail is at present, and
has been for some without prisoner. Car.
oline is one Of the counties in which local
option prevails.
The greater part of the fall wheat in
Missouri has been destroyed by the severity
of the past winter Many fields have been
plowed up for corn. Oats in that State will
also be short crop this year. Fruit, also,
has been greatly injured.
Gold having been discovered in the
Black Hills, Wyoming Territory, great de-
sire exists among adventures to locate there
and search for the precious metal. The
country belongs to the Sioux Indians, how
ever, having been allotted to them by the
United States as a reservation. The govern
ment accordingly endeavols TO keep squat
tiers from entering until the Indians can be
persuaded to sell their lands and go some
where else. A deputation of chiefs are ex.
pected at Washington, and after pow WOW
with the President and cabinet it is conf
IDENTIFY expected they will give up their res
crvation. In few months the whole of the
Black Hills region will swarm with white
men, eagerly seeking the bane of good.

An Appeal for Christ Church, Rock
Spring.

To one who stands and looks upon Christ
Church, Rock Spring, or who passes inside and
examines the interior, it is perfectly evident
that the time has come, in which the building
must be thoroughly repaired, or else soon crum-
BILE under the hand of decay. And vet prop.
er regard for the old church, where ones fore
fathers worshipped, and where SO many now liv-
ing have been baptized, confirmed, married, and
become partakers of the great Feast, should
render it work of love to cause it to rise q
beautiful memorial in its resurrection form, of
those now gone. We cannot believe that love
to preserve the old landmarks of religion in
Maryland; that love for those sleeping around
the old church, that love for all the associa-
tons that come clustering up around this sacred
spot; no, we cannot believe that this love will
be wanting, or will withhold the means, which
would be SO degrading to any human being,
from such sacred cause.
The nccdful repairs are, n recess chanccl, n
new roof, new windows, and vestibuIc For
this purpose nearly s., 400 are wanting and the
vestry are now soliciting subscriptions for this
end. We need, first, S2,400 for these above
mentioned purposes, and then as this is so pre-
eminently church memorial to the dead, we
hope there will be those who having lost rcla.
tiycs will commemorate them by the gift of an
altar or stained church windows, or pulpit or
some suitable decoration for the church. MAY,
then, the two great motives, love for God and
love for those asleep in Jesus, prove that there
is deep and heartfelt interest in this people,
by united labor in the effort now being made TO
prevent the fire from dying upon the altar of
this church. Subscriptions may be sent to the
Rector, Rev. S. II. S. Gallaudet, at Bel Air, or
to any of the vestry.

FARMING.
Our farmers are very backward with theiI
work; a number of them are not yet done sow
ing their oats, and but few have commenced to
pillow for corn. There is not much talk amongst
them about planting big crops OF potatoes this
spring, as there formerly has been. Think the
potato bug has scared them out; but on ac-
count of the lateness of the spring they will nc
doubt have plenty TO do. Dock.

MARYLAND PRISONERS AID ASSOCIATION
We have received the sixth annual report
of this association, whose efforts are devot-
ed 10 the reformation Of criminals and the
amclioration of the condition of the charita-
BILE institutions of our State. Its officers and
managers arc among the best and most intiu-
entail citizens of Baltimore. The President
MI G. S. Griffith, deyotes much his time
and energy to the work of visiting the pub
lie institutions throughout the State, TO in
vcstigate the condition of the inmates, and
where necessary and expedient TO urge the
authorities to make important improve
ments, especially with reference to the prop
er classification of the sexes, and the SANTA
ny condition of the premises The Jail OF
our own county is fifty characterized, along
with several others of the State, as "a dis
grace 10 ci Utilization" and as entirely unfit
for the proper classification of the sexes"
Every grand jury that has met here for
the last twelve years will recognize the truth
of the picture.
The efforts of the association in behalf of
convicts do not cease with their release from
prison, but those who manifest disposition
to turn aside from evil courses, are provid-
cd with situations in sections remote from
those in which they are known. The oppor-
tunity is thereby afforded them of becoming
good and useful citizens. The charity ofthe
association, it is gratifying to learn, is not
often abused. Many instances are cited of
men once abandoned criminals who, aided
by its helping hand have raised themselves
to positions ofrespectability and usefulness.
We commend the association and his officers
to generous public.
