text of recent decision Of the Circuit Court
for Baltimore county in the case of the Fred.
erick Road Turnpike company against Maui
rice Sheehan. Sheehan was engaged in haul
ing with his teams through the I'd gate on
the road, travelling distance of about three
miles only ON the road. At the end of the
month he rendered payment for the distance
actually Travelled, which the company refused,
demanding payment for the whole distance
Of the road for which the gate was erected
to collect tolls. Suit was brought and judg-
ment given for the amount rendered. An
appeal was taken by the company, and on
appeal the majority of the Court decided that
il was matter of indifference whether the
traveller used the road for few hundred
yards only, or the whole distance for which
the gate was erected to collect tolls, the COM
pany had right to collect tolls for the whole
distance.
The opinion OF The majority of the court
was signed by Judges Grason and Waters.

based upon his construction of that clause of
the Company's charter fixing the rate of
charge for each ten miles and so in proper.

Bids thee from dust 10 glory arise.

Invade thy bounds, no mortal woes

RICH DUBLIN.
The great increase in the value of taxable
property in our district under the late assess
ment, surprises every one; Tor we were not
awvre that we had grown so rich. But it ap-
pears that whilst Bel Air, Abingdon and Mar
shals have been growing poorer, we of Dublin
have increased in riches at a most rapid pace
1t seems, from the last assessment, that the
property in our district shows an increase over
the tax basis of 1876 of S220,00O Now this is
something to boast of, but the cause of it we
are unable to fathom, We can't see what has
enhanced the value of property in our district
so far above our respected sisters. There is
some mystery in the case. Can it be from the
superior Judgment of our assessors over those
of the retrograding districts? When we travel
over the districts That have fallen off in value
we are delighted with the fine farms and elegant
buildings that meet our rapturous gaze. Yet it
appears that these unfortunate districts are get.
ting poorer! Whilst we from some unknown
cause are growing rich at a $40 pace. or course
our taxes will be heavy, but an imp at my ell,
bow tells me with grin that if we are so much
richer than our neighbors we ought to pay for
it.

copy of the abovc-named work, recently pub

well observes, is not designed as an elemen-

tate the labor of those who have made prog
ress in the study of Algebra, and it consc-
quently presuppposes the knowledge of equa-
tions cf the 1st degree and we also find new
