Mr. WIN. Duiieren, resident of the upper
part Of this district, met with painful acct
dent on Whit Monday lie was returning
home from Winfield, in company with several
young men Of this neighborhood, who had
been to picnic at Defiance. One Of the
party striking his horse, it started of in a
run, and turning into byroad, threw him of
and uod on him. The whole party riding
close to him, it is supposed he was struck by
their horses too. He was taken home, and a
physician sent for, who discovered that he had
broken bis log ia two places, between the
knee and ankle, aud was injured in the breast.
Mr.. Duiieren is a German aud an industrious
farmer, aud much sympathy is manifested in
the community for bin.
Mr.. john Clements and his daughter, living
near Eldersburg, we're driving through Sykes
willie on Monday last When opposite Mr.. J.
NJ. Berry's, stone was thrown by q boy at
the passing team, striking the horse, which took
fright aud ran oil. Running upon a bank in
front Of the NJ. Il. Parsonage, the vehicle was
upset, throwing the occupants out. Mr..
Clements became entaDgled in the top Of the
buggy. But for the harness breaking AID the
horse freeing himself from the wreck, the &c.
eident would probably have proved fatal to
him. Mr.. c. was badly bruised on his face
and limbs. His daughter escaped uninjured
Mr.. John Berret and Col james Berret, Of
Georgetown, d. C., were in Freedom this
week.
There are two questions that arc asked
here every day, and they are these ;--' What
shall the harvest be ~ and "When will court
ADJOURN The harvest promises TO be q
good one, and will soon be at hand. Farm
ers are hunting up their hands and getting
the machinery IN order. Sykesville looks gay
now with the display Of reapers, mowers and
horse rakes. The court, too, promises to be
n good long one. We dropped in the other
day, our friends asked us what we saw. Well,
we said, we saw our good Judge Hayden,
plain and patient, the farmer on the jury
sweating worse than in the harvest feld-not
being used TO court or coat this kind Of
weather, the lawyer in his ninth prayer, and
the fat politician in his seventh heaven.
Enough they said; we know it all
An ice cream festival at Hammond's Hall,
for st, Joseph's Catholic Church, and Du.
wallis dinner to the farmers, will be the at
fractions here this week.

THE DuNB MADE TO SPEAK--A deep relig
ious feeling has pervaded the colored people
Of Petersburg, Va, recently, and not less
than hundred have been converted and hap.
tized On Sunday seventy FIVE we're baptized,
and among them was colored man named
Burwell Lancaster, who since his infancy has
been deaf mute, and was never known to
utter an ineligible word. Immediately after
coming out ofthe water, to the amazement Of
the multitude, he gave thanks to God for his
happiness IN loud and distinct voice. The
affair is looked upon as miracle by the col
ored people. Lancaster has since reverted TO
his former mute condition.

Tho New Salary Law :.

We publish this week the bill passed
by the last Legislature, introduced BY
Rep. J. D. Allen, regulating the salaries
OF officers of Mower County. If Hotch
were ever inclined to do an enemy justice:
how ripe the opportunity now. Every
election he sends up the cry for reduction
of salaries, and now that Mr.. Allen has
secured the passage OF such law, Hotch
kiss ought to come out promptly and
manfully and give him credit tor doing
good thing for the taxpayers. Will he
do it? No. He has already shown his
gratitude by abuse Of Allen. We are not
Aliens sponsor, and do not approve OF
the bill in every particular. In some Of
the cases we think the salaries are far
too low, and Mr.. Allen knows this, for
we have told him so. But We do like to
SET consistency and fair dealing. The
charge that Mr.. Allen only cut down the
salaries OF his political opponents through
malice is not only false but too foolish
for notice. Any one reading the law will
see that it does not effect in any way
County Auditor Wyckoff or Register Of
Deeds Howe, or any of the persons now
holding the offices named in the act.
As far as the present County Superintend-
ent is conce rned, he receives no benefits
whatever from the new law unless he shall
be his own successor, and his salary now
is not $500 as given last week by our
truthful contemporary, but $1100, and
under the general law the commissioners
had the power to raise 1t to $500 had
they wished to do So This law gives
him $1,000 and no more, he being obliged
to pay all his own travelling expenses.
