The defendant claimed that said order
was written by said Putnam, and then
copied by the defendant into the blank
order furnished by said Putnam, and that
the order was made in that way at the
suggestion of said Putnam, us u cover, and
to prevent seizure of the liquor by the
authorities of IIardwick or Nolcott. 1t
fuather appeared in evidence that when
the plaintiffs shipped said whiskey, they
sent an order to the defendant on The sta
ton agent at Wolcott, to deliver said
whiskey to the bearer of said order, by
which means the defendant obtained said
whiskey. 1t also appeared that in October
of the same year, the plaintiffs sent the
defendant bill Of cigars, amounting to
twenty-five dollars, which cigars, through
II mistake of the defendant were returned
to the plaintiffs and which, by an arrange
ment between the defendant and said Put
nam We're again sent to the defendant.
Ihc plaintiffs claimed also, that when said
cigals We're sent the second time, another
box of another brand were also sent, upon
the defendants order, but which the de-
lendant denied he claiming that he never
ordered nor received any cigars from the
plaintiffs only those named in the first bill.
The second bill amounted to twenty ght
dollars. 1t appeared further, that the de-
PENDANT paid to said Putnam for the plant
ills twenty-five dollars, for which said Put
nam gave the defendant receipt in the
name of the plaintiffs The plaintiffs
claim was lor three dollars, the balance on
cigars, and for the barrel Of whiskcy. The
testimony Of said Putnam tended to show
that the defendant was Il stranger to him,
that he went into the defendants store and
defendant inquired of him if he knew
where the defendant could get some whis-
key, and requested him to inform the de-
PENDANT how it could be ordered 50 us to
keep it safe from seizure, and that he gave
the defendant the information lie desired,
but told defendant he could not sell defend
ant any liquor as the laws of the state
would not allow it, and that all lie done
about the matter was rs a favor to the de-
icndant and ut the defendant special re-
quest The court charged the jury that if
they found that said purchase was made in
this state or that said Putnam rs the agent
of the plaintiffs, was instrumental in ne
gotiating the sale Of said whiskey; or sec.
ondly if they found that the sale was made
in Boston rs claimed by the plaintiffs. but
under such circumstances, the plaintiffs
might reasonably suppose that said whis-
key was for an illegal use, the plaintiffs
jury returned verdict for three dollars

Whatever may prove to be the final
terms of peace between Russia and Turkey,
it is tolerably plain that nothing will be
left of the Treaty of Paris. That treaty
which was dictated by the victors at the
close of the Crimcan war, provided tmt
Russia should have only few vessels on
the Black Sea; that her principal fortress
on that sea should be dismanted; and that
Russian vessels should not pass the Daw-
danelles, and there was provision guar
anteeng the independence and integrity
Of the Ottoman Empirc,n Russia declu-
ed to all the powers in 1870, that she would
no longer regard the treaty Of Paris; and
she proceeded to set aside that part of it
which related to her fleets and fortress on
the Black Sea. The other provisions of
the treaty will probably now 60 by the
board. 1t Notifying to British pride;
but England will pocket the all'ront while
also pockcting the money which it would
cost to 90 to war.

According to Senator Jones of Florida,
gold is the unstable thing, and grcenbacks
are the only true measure Of value, which
leads the Trj6"1e to suggest that if Mr..
Jones would exchange his seat in the
Senate for one on sce-saw, for which he
is apparently better fitted he would per
ceive that the ground didn't move although
it seemed to; and he might then under
stand how it was that gold was stable and

DEATH OF Mr.. ROBERT l.. MORGAN We
regret to announce the death of this we'll
known and estimable gentleman, which oc-
Cured at his residence, Halls Cross Roads,
last Sunday morning. Mr.. Morgan was a
pure-mnded, true .hearted man whose hos
pitality and generosity endeared him to many
friendsand whose strict integrity won him the
respect of all with whom he came in contact
in business affairs. He was in the 57th year
of his age. Mr.. Morgan had been extensively
engaged in farming, until year ago, and was
noted as a breeder of fine horses. He was the
owner of Patrick Henry, one of the most pop
ular horses ever brought into the county. He
died shortly after the close of the war, but his
progeny are scattered throughout the county

The Approaching Fair.

The Fifth Annual Exhibition of the Agri-
cultural and Mechanical Association of Har-
ford county will be held at the Fair Grounds,
near Bel Air, on the 9Th, 9th, 10th and 18th
inst. Already the entries in nearly every
department have been numerous and of a
high order of merit and it is expected that the
display will be better than ever before, while
it is probable that the attendance, if the skies
permit, will he very large The display of
horned CATTLE especially of Short Horns and
Jerseys, will embrace many thoroughbred ami
mails of unusual excellence and large num-
BIER of fine horses, choice sheep and swine have
also been entered for exhibition The exhibits
of agricultural machinery will be numerous,
and will include steam threshcr and steam
saw mill, both of which will be run during the
fair. The household departments will also be
we'll filed with specimens of the skill of our
ladies, in the ornamental branches and in the
culinary department.
Besides the display of fine stock, agricul-
tural machinery, farm produce, trials ofspeed,
&c, number of amusements have been pro-
vided, including four-horse chariot races, an
Indian war hunt, the game of polo, ath-
letic sports, &c. Polo, which will be
novelty here, is similar to the old fashioned
game of DANDY" or "shindy," except that the
contestants are mounted on horses and use
mallets instead of crooked clubs to drive the
wooden ball to its goal. The game is an ex-
citing one and will be the marked feature of
the fair
The Grafton will be delivered on Wednesday,
the second day of the fair, by Hon. A. X.
Syester, of Hagerstown, and the music will
be given by the Glen Rock Cornet Band
Altogether, visitors will find sufficient TO
instruct, interest and amuse them every day
of the fair.
Aside from the social features of these an
nual fairs, in bringing friends together who
seldom mte they possess value that can
scarcely be estimated. They direct the atten-
ton of the public outside to our county and
its resources, and frequently cause our own
citizens to wonder at the number and variety
of the agricultural products, the fine stock
&C., within our borders. They also foster
county pride and provoke generous rivalry
in we'll doing that cannot fail to rebound to
the general good. 1t is therefore the duty
of every person in the county who has stock
or anything else worthy of exhibition to
exhibit such stock or articles at the fair
Let there be a full display ofeverythng Har-
ford county can produce, and make this fifth
annual fair the best ever held by the socie-
ty

Political.

A Gazette reporter recently interviewed
Hon. Arthur p. German, chairman of the
Democratic State Central Committee, and OBJ
tanned his views on the political situation
Mr.. German is of the opinion that the First
Congressional District is thoroughly Demo-
cratic, notwithstanding n Republican fight is
being made by Colonel Graham. Mr.. Henry
will be reelected by n large majority. The
Greenback feeling, Mr.. German thinks, does
not enter into the contest. In the Second
district, while there is some opposition to
Mr.. Talbott-principally in Baltimore city
Mr.. German thinks that Mr.. Talbot will he
elected by an overwhelming majority. There
is he says, no particular issue, and we cannot
tell, until the opposition show their hands,
what form it will take. The campaign in the
Third and Fourth districts is being well con-
Quoted, on the Democratic side, in the city,
and the outlook is satisfactory. There is says
Mr.. German, no trouble among the Demo
Gratis in the Fifth district The Republican
candidate, Col. Crane, cannot get out the full
vote of his party. The contest in the Sixth
district will be close. The Republicans and
Democrats have been divided by local faction
fights, and it is difficult to predict what will
occur on either side.
The Hagerstown Nesos, published at
Hon. William T. Hamiton's home states on
the "best authority" that there is not one
word of truth in recent article published in
several of the city papers, purporting to give
that gcntleman's views on the olitical situa-
ton. The Neaos adds; 1--WE believe the
whole thing is done to injure Mr.. Hamilton
in the coming Gubernatoral contest"
The Grecnbackers and Democrats have
Consolidated, in Iowa, and united in nomina-
ting State ticket.
The national labor and greenback party
have nominated VIM s. Quigley, for Con-
gress, in the fourth Maryland district The
district now has five candidates in the field,
viz: McLane, Democrat, Holland, Repubi-
can, Quigley, Greenback, Redgraves, TEN.

Forest Hill and IFS Vicinity.

| Forest Hill holds an elevated position among
the hills that surround it, having an altitude of
$50 feet above the level of Deer Creek. To this
elevation we must refer the healthincss and puri-
ty of its atmosphere, which in our own case at
least, promoted dreamless sleep and invigoratcd
digestion. When the marrow Gauge" does lis
duty in anmihilating distance may not Forest
llil for this reason, connected with other advan-
tagcs, become point of social and business in
terest on the route? We think so, and it did us
good to note even the stakes that marked the
line of the located road, though in little talk
with one of the directors, living at the place, our
ardor was somewhat dampened when we heard
the reiterated cry "more money" while at the
same time, we felt like increasing our shares
"four-fold." Really it seems to us, in Il common
sense view, that only railroad can develop and
make valuable SO much that is now valueless,
on the located route. But apart from this we
think there is something due our own Sslf-reSpect
in this matter; for after all the talk canvassing,
surveying, and payment of " first installment,"
there would be positive shame connected with
ultimate failure. But it won't fail. Those who
have given will give more, and those who have
not yet subscribed anything, must give double
portion to make it sure. But we beg pardon,
Mr.. Editor, our letter was not to be about the
railroad.
Forest Hill store, under the firm of Roe &
Tucker, must first be referred to as point of
active business. Wemight almost call this store
"grand." 1t is commodious building with
correspond, with goods of every variety and
texture. Roe 81 Tucker, with their good-looking
clerks, impress us with the fact that they are
simply honest energetic men, who have made
money selling goods and intend to make more,
whether the railroad comes or not.
Mr.. George Jeffrey, in shop near by, makes
"boots and shoes" His coarse work is said to
far out last the "Yankec" make, and we know
his kid buttoned CATERS wear well, and are be-
coming to ladies' feet.
The Seattle scales'' are convenience TO the
cattle growers. A saith and wheelwrght shop
is contiguous; and within a-half mile of the
store, are the "Grafton & Ashton Shops" of
established custom and reputation. Near there
is canning house, which does away with much
OF the home canning, so exhausting upon hot
day.
Forest Hill is thickly surrounded with resi-
dences, each having some claim to attractiveness,
but among them, we may note the homes of
Messrs. Roe, Vale and Smithson, for their larger
dimensions and fine growths of trees and shub-
berry.
We must rot forget the resident Doctors pref
ty cottage, which from its eminence commands
an extended and beautiful view of hills, wales,
plains and forests, embracing the Rocks of Deer
