Some time ago John Marsh, who kept a
hotel at Westminster, sued joan T. Johns, a
wealthy farmer, living near Mantua mill, in this
county, for bill. Afterwards Johns procured
the indictment of Marsh ON the charge of perjury,
but when the case came up for trial a stet was
entered by the State. Then Marsh brought suit
against Johns for libel, laying damages at $l0,-
600, and the case came up for trial in the Circuit
Court for this county on Wednesday. A large
number of witnesses have been summoned and
the trial of the case will no doubtconsume several
days. Hon. VIM. p. Maulsby, of Westminster,
and r. R. Boarman and John 1. Yellott, Esqs.,
are counsel for Marsh, and Judge Merrick, of
Howard county, H. V. D. Johns, Esq, of Balti-
more, and VIM. Grason, Esq, appear for Johns.
Prof" Frank Stookey, rope-walker,
made his appearance in TOwsontown on Friday
afternoon of last week and showed the people
what he could do in the way of walking a tight
rope The rope was fastened to a large tree in
front of Urban's restaurant and from thence ex-
tended to the top of the building occupied by j.
ID. Roe Co.'s store, where the other end was
made fast. The "Prof." then assembled and de-
seended with the greatest ease, assisted only by
a balance pole. After performing a number of
thrilling feats,' which his small audience seemed
fully to appreciate, he came down and the hat was
passed around. The collection amounted to eX-
aetly Sill. The "Prof." had intended giving
another exhibition at night, but as the first one
"panned OUT so poorly he concluded not to give
another and left in disgust, with the remark that
this was the e poorest place to exhibit in he
ever struck"

EXPLOITS OF GHOST ExPLoDED.-For some
time past the household of Mr.. B. F. McGlone,
near Ivy Mills, 4th district, has been puzzled by
an unaccountable noise after night of wood be-
ing chopped near the dwelling, and always shortly
after the family retired. Several months ago, and
just before the advent of the nocturnal visitor,
Mr.. Nee. took into his employ one George Shelly
as q farm hand. Shelly was very much annoyed
by ghosts every place he went, but by this one in
particular, who he declared was after him some
nights until o'clock. 1t was the spirit ESQ it
said) of a gentleman who formerly owned Mr..
McG's. farm. 1t would be essential for the better
entertainment of the unrestful shade of the long
departed, for Shelly to sleep outside, or in the
barn, Shelly being the soul of honor, and Mr..
MEG. supposng his spectres to be an optic illusion,
he was entrusted with the keys of the barn, poul-
try house, etc. Although the premises were thus
watched every night, yet chickens, fruit, &C.,
would somehow disappear On Saturday morning,
9Th inst, Mr.. Nee discovered hidden in the barn
large handkerchief filled with eggs. That even
ing Shelly, as usual Saturdays, was going abroad.
just as he made his exit from the gate he was
stopped and relieved of the eggs. The gentleman
was summary discharged and the mysterious
wood splitting has never since been heard.-Reis-

A FALL Down A SHAFT.-Another accident &C.
Cured at the water works, at Shaft No. II, near
Woodbourne avenue, on Friday morning of last
week. resulting in the death of one man and the
serious injury of another. Henry Dukehart, a
carpenter, standing on platform in the shaft,
removing the box ventlator, when an upper Sec
ton of the pipe fell from the top, and in its de-
scent struck the platform within an inch or two
from where Dukehart was standing. The plat
form broke and the carpenter went tumbling down
with the debris to the bottom of the shaft dis
lance of about thirty-fve feet He fell on his
back with great violence

ders were badly cut and he was unconscious

EXTENSIVE FIRE-BARN BURNED-IlEAvY Loss.
About two o'clock on Monday morning last, a
large barn on the farm of VIM. H. Hoffman, Esq,
at Marblevale paper mill, near Phoenix, was dis
covered to be ON fire and entirely consumed
in short time. The farm is occupied by Mr..
Joshua Evans, who had the barn stored with his
whole summers crop, all of which was consumed,
including large quantity of wheat, oats, rye hay,
&c. There six or eight fine horses in the
stable at the time, all of which were gotten out
except one mare and colt, which were burned to
death. All the horses were more or less burned,
three of them badly that they will probably
die. Eight sets of wagon harness, carriage har-
ness reaper, corn shelter, and many other farm
ing implements which were in the building were
also burned. The corn houses, near the barn,
were only saved by deluging them with water.
The loss of everything except the barn falls on
Mr.. Evens, who had no insurance. He is an in
dustrious man and good citizen, and has the sym
pathies of the entire neighborhood.
How the fire originated is mystery. The sup
position is that some one entered the barn with
the intention of stealing horse, and which theory
seems to be correct from the fact that one of the
horses had bride and saddle on and was found
standing in the county road but showed no evil
dence of having been ridden. 1t is probable that
in looking for the horse and saddle and bride
matches were used which were thrown down in
the straw causing it to ignite. There was no in
surance on the barn, and the total loss VIII reach
between four and five thousand dollars.
FUNERAL OF Mr.. ELISHA GREEN-PARTICULARs
OF HIS DEATH.-The funeral of Mr.. Elisha Green,
who died suddenly at Harrison, Ohio, last week,
took place from the residence Of his brother, in
Baltimore on Friday afternoon, Oct. 25th, and
was largely attended by his numerous friends be-
sides Beauseant Commandary, knights Templar,
of which he was member. The remains were in
tered in the family vault in Greenmount Cemete-
ry. In noticing Mr.. Green's death last week we
were unable to state the cause, but have since
learned the particulars. He left Baltimore in
company with Mr.. VIM. H. Hilton, for Harrison,
Ohio, where Mr.. Hilton was to be married. The
bride was a niece of Mr.. Green's and he was to
act as groomsman to Mr.. Hilton. Mr.. Green was
unwell when he left home, and was seized with
severe pain in the head in Cincinnati, but went
to Harrison. The wedding took place on the
18th, when Mr.. Green was too much indisposed to
act as groomsman. He remained at his sisters
and the bridal party delayed their departure on
account of his illness. Drs. Lyons and Thomas
were called in and pronounced the disease neural
gia of the brain. An abscess had formed, which
broke on the 22d, and Mr.. Green died a few
hours after, despite every attention from physi-
clans and friends. Mr.. Hilton and his wife came
on to Baltimore with the body. Mr.. Green him
self was to have been married in January next,
