portions of the contract made by this

Elements made with them in 1873 con
corning the interest of the State in the

The court held that the contracts and

associates were, legal and proper, and
that all their conduct of business of the
State has been open, fair and public, land
their proceedings had been reported
from time to time by the board and re-
corded among their records and APPROX
ed by them. The bill was therefore dis
missed, and decree entered TO that CT

BEEcHER's BREAD AND WATER BAN
ouEr.-Henry Ward Beecher delivered
a lecture in Cincinnati on Saturday, and
the occasion was improved by the So
cialistic Labor Party TO give him hearty
welcome in the shape OF bread ana
water banquet. 1t was arranged Tor
Beecher to be invited in due form, and
speeches and other appointments OF
first class banquet were provided, while
the bill of fare was to consist OF bread
and water. In his lecture, Mr.. Beecher
referred to it as follows:
understand there is banquet 60
ing on al this time in this city where
bread and water are the victuaIs. am
to be invited. Assertions are made that
have said bread and water were good
enough for the workingman. l have
repeatedly contradicted it, but they
don't want to understand it. | never
did say it. On the contrary, ! did say
that on account of contraction every
class Of the community must suffer; ricn
men must suffer; middle men must sui
fer, and the workingmen must suffer-
and it was not becoming to the manli-
ness of the laborer to say that he alone
should snfftr; but that it was necessary
fot them to tide over the time, and II
man had to come down to bread and
water it was better than TO shirk his
lot. Perhaps this denial will be pub
lished in one or two papers, but they
will keep on saying: "Beecher says
bread and water are good enough Tor
the workingman." My own impression
is, il they would drink more water they
would have more bread. Laughter.

Mrs. RICHARD Thomas RECOVERING.
Her large circle of friends will be re-
lieyed TO learn that Mrs. Thomas, of
Licksvile, who was assaulted by the
negro Carroll, who was subsequently
lynched, is for the first time III fair
way to recovery. Mrs. Thomas lived
in Baltimore several years while her
husband, Capt. Richard Thomas, was
engaged in the tobacco trade there. 1t
was feared at one time that Mrs Thorn
as mind would be permanently affected
hui it is believed that this danger is
now averted. She was not fully in
formed of the lynching until NO weeks
after the event. When she understood
that it would not be necessary for her
10 appear in court, to which she had the
greatest repugnance, she began TO re-
cover rapidly.-Frederiek Times.
