CENTENN1AL.--The House Of Dele
gates at Annapolis has passed a bill
apprcpriating $4,000, designed to
aid in properly representing Mary
land at the Centennial Exhibition
The Senate has passed another bill for
the same purpose, making the appro-
priation only $4,000. A committee
Of conference, it is presumed, will be
appointed to adjust the matter. Let
US hope earnestly that a more patriot
ic and magnanimous spirit may yet
enter into the hearts Of our Senators,
which will convince them that S25,-
900 is not too much, nor enough in
honor of Old Maryland, one of the
thirteen original States, to give her a
commanding position at the great ju-
bilee. No one should hesitate upon
this question, more especially a Ma
rylanler.

FATAL ACcIDExr.-Our entire community
was startled on Wednesday morning by a
shocking accident, by which well. known
and much, respected citizen, John W. Holt,
lost his life. Mr.. Bolt was coming into town
in light wagon, and between the railroad
crossing near Sites mill and Little Elk his
horse took fright at passing train of cars
and ran away. Mr.. Holt was thrown out.
and it is supposed his feet became entangled
in the harness or shafts and he was dragged
some distance. When found, near Gilpin's
brick-yard, be was insensible. His face and
head were terribly battered and bis coat al
most torn from his body. DR.. Mitchell was
soon in attendance and had Mr.. Holt placed
on bed in wagon and carried to his home.
Medical skill was of no avail. Mr.. Holt died
about o'clock the same afternoon. - Cecil
Nd J Democrat.
Mr.. David Rea, living near Woodlawn,
Cecil county, having had his stock increased
one day last week by a calf which be thought
was big one. and having some curiosity to
know Just how big it was, be weighed it at
twenty-four hours old it brought down the
scales at one hundred and twenty pounds.
The calf can be seen and ample proof furnish
ed any unbeliever at Mr.. Rea's farm. Mr..
r. also sold . calf of the same cow to Mr.. J
Siebbings in last February, which at the age
of FIVE weeks weighed two hundred pounds.
Levin Pearce, negro, was committed to Jail
on Wednesday week by Justice Cohee, of
Worton, on the charge Of rape committed
upon the person of white girl named Sarah
s. Mcintyre, aged about sixteen years. We
have heard several accounts concerning the
affair, and think it advisable to say nothing
further until full investigation is had
Pearce is about thirty years Of age, and was
born and raised in Kent county. His parents
now live in Chestertown.
The dwelling house Of Capt. John Harring-
ton, in Ferry Neck, Talbot county, took FIRE
on Wednesday last and was entirely con-
sumed. The Ere broke out early in the even
ing, and the kitchen roof was in full blaze
before it was discovered. Most of the furni-
lure was saved. 1t is supposed the roof
caught either from spark or from q defec-
tive chimney. There was an insurance of
$1,000.
