Our usually quiet village has been the
scene of much enjoyment during the past few
weeks, in the way of festivals of various
kinds but we are expecting to be grandly
entertained during next week. The popular
"Buell Family" of Westminster, will give
one of their concerts of music at the M. E.
Church South, next Wednesday evening, Sep
TENDER Goth. They will also visit other
churches in the neighborhood. At Ebenezer,
Monday, Gath; Center, Tuesday, 25th, and
McKendree. Thursday evening, 9th. No
one should fail to hear this wonderful family
sing. Their voices never grow old, nor their
songs stale. The proceeds from each concert
are for the benefit of the church at which it
is held.
Politics have quoted down. Nearly all
seem satisfied and accept the nominations
cheerfully, and while in some instances pro-
badly some would have had it otherwise, yet
we submit to the powers that be, and fall in
with the ruling majority, hoping all may end
well The wet weather has been very much
against the farmers in their fall work. Much
corn remains to be cut, and there is a great
deal of blowing to be done for wheat.
The Sunday School of the M. E. Church
South, will hold their annual celebration next
Saturday evening. VIAToR.

MUD INSTEAD OF DUST.

Null lNoIhAD OF DUET.
The general complaint of too much dust
is over now, and too much mud has substitu.
ted it, For nearly two weeks the unsettled
weather has continued, during which time
much rain has fallen, greatly impeding the
the Gamers of tomatoes. Apropos of can
ming, week or two more will about bring
the season TO close. Let us hope that it may
have been one of great success and general
satisfaction to the many engaged in the bus
mess. The next thing to engage the atten-
ton of our farmers lie the corn crop, which
promises an abundant yield in this vicinity
THE ANNUAL COUNTY FAIR,
which begins in October, is expected TO out
shine all its predecessors. Several young
and valuable horses from this neighborhood
will be exhibited upon that occasion. Sister
communities, do ye likewise, and bring out
your fancy stock.
Capt. Harkins, of this village, has for
ten days past been dangerously i'll, but is
now much better. There is much sickness
however, in the neighborhood.
SCHOOLS.
The public school at this place, mo. y the
opening of which for good reasons has been
deferred, will commence upon Monday, Octo-
Der LIST. Mr.. Alexander d. Clopton is the
teacher in charge. A full attendance of the
scholars is expected upon commencement
day. Parents will please see to 1t.
Mr.. Holmes has opened private school,
in the basement of Grove Presbyterian
Church, for the general enlightenment of
young ladies and gentlemen. We wish him
every success in his undertaking.

Obituary.
THE REV. EDWARD KINsEY.

The Rev. Edward Kinsey, of the Baltimore
Conference M. E. Church, died at Keyser, West
Virginia, on Wednesday morning, September
18th. 1877 He was a native of this State, and
between 40 and so years of age He identified
himself with the church early in life, became
member of the Baltimore Conference in the year
1858, and remained in the effective ranks until
last Mareh-a period of "a years. His list of
appointments was as follows: 1858, Bladensburg;
1854, Great Falls; 1855 Hereford; lS56-'57, East
Hartford; 1858, Strawbridge, Baltimore; 1859 go,
1861 64-'65, West Harford 1866 '6S, Cumber-
land; 1862 Frostburg; 1s70'7l, Wesley Chapel,
Baltimore; 1S72'73 Union Square, Baltimore;
1S74'75'76, Hereford. His health becoming
very much impaired last year, he accordingly
asked for and received supernumerary appoint
ment. He moved from Hereford last March, to
Keyser, West Virginia, thinking the bracing
mountain air might assist him in regaining his
former strength. But God has ordered other
wise. He was stricken down with paralysis, and
at o'clock on Wednesday morning, September
throughout Hartford county, where, five years of
his successful ministry were spent, that his
sudden death will be o shock to his many warm
and devoted friends. His ministry was charac-
terized by great earnestness and zeal in his work
He was very successful wherever he labored, and
very many will call him "bessed'' In the last
great day. Nature did great things for him, in
blessing him with most remarkable voice, hay
ing great compass, and capable of great aexibili
ty. He was man of power, when pleading
with God in prayer. In exhortation few men
ed we'll. ale now rests from his labors, and his
works will follow him." He leaves wife and
three children. MAY they all meet on the ever
green shore" G.

1t appears by the books of the assessors
that there are 1870 colored taxpayers in Har-
ford county, whose assessments aggregate
$112,560, or an average Of about 1926 each.
The richest colored taxpayer is John Blu
chanan, of the Fourth district, who is assess
ed for $8,387. The next heaviest colored tax
payer is in the Second district, and pays
taxes on $500. BY the laws of the State
the school tax paid by the colored taxpayers
is entirely appropriated to the support of the
colered schools.

threw stone at the snake, striking and

THE NEXT CoNeREss.-The extra SESSION
of Congress, 10 commence at Washington on
the 10Th of October, will probably be of ex-
citing interest. The House will have q
speaker to elect, and as the Southern mem.
bers generally are in favor of the Texas-Pa-
cific subsidy scheme, their Efforts to secure
a speaker favorable to that measure will
make the contest very lively. The appro-
priation bill for the support of the army, will
scarcely meet with opposition now, since the
troops have been withdrawn from the South
ern States and are being used for their legiti-
mate purpose of protecting the frontier and
garrisoning Notifications. An effrot will
doubtless be made to increase the regu-
lar army, but it will meet with the de-
termined opposition of the Democrats. 1t
is more than probable that heated dis
cussion of the Electoral Conspiracy will
be preciptated, and when once COM
menced no one can foretell how long it
may be kept up. The appointments made
by the President during the recess OF
Congress will come before the Senate for its
approval, and as some Of the ousted officials
surrendered under protest, their friends in the
Senate, if so disposed, may take advantage OF
the occasion to say some disagreeable things
about the de facto President. The Demo
Gratis will certainly secure the organization OF
the House, their majority being at least elev-
en-. No effort, it is thought, will be made
upon their part to control the Senate, by an
alliance with the carpet-bag Senators. The
most sagacious Democratic leaders prefer to
allow the Republicans full sway in the SEN
ate, SO as to hold that party responsible for
any unpopular legislation that may be enact
ed. Altogether an autumnal dish of highly
favored national politics is reasonably GER
tain.
The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1877-09-21
The Camnaign.

With the nomination of Republican
county ticket, on Tuesday, the issue between
Democracy and Radicalism is again present
ed to the voters of the county. Some of the
more sagacous Republicans were opposed
to making nominations, hoping that such a
course would encourage the running of indie
pendent Democrats, who might possibly de-
feat some of the regularly nominated candi-
dates, or at any rate reduce the majority for
the Democratic ticket. The Republican
ticket is regarded as weak in some points,
but nothing can he urged against the person
al CHI racter of the candidates. On the other
hand the Democratic candidates not only
come up to the Jefersonian standard of hon
esty and capability, but are also wellknown
throughout the county. Thus there is no
argument that can be used In favor of the
personal merits of any candidate upon the
Republican ticket that will not apply with
equal if not greater force to his opponent on
the other side The contest, therefore, is re-
duced, in great measure, to one of princi-
pie, and every voter who is in favor of the
rights of the people of every class, and oppOs-
ed to thesubversive tendencies of Republican,
ism, should regard it not only as duty, but
Il privilege, to cast his ballot for the Demo.
cratic candidates.
Since the Democratic ticket was nomina-
ted there has been general expression of
satisfaction with the result, and if an active
canvass is made the Democratic majority in
November will be larger than before. AL
though the prospect for the election of the
entire ticket is so favorable, voters of the
party should not rely upon this fact and alb.
sent themselves from the election. On the
contrary every man should turn out and do
his whole duty by voting for the ticket as
presented. and by encouraging others to do
so. The Democratic party is the friend of
the farmer and the workingman, and these
classes of the community should sustain its
principles by voting for its candidates.
