Frederick County Items.


The following items we copy from the
Examiner Of the 1st inst
On Saturday night last, whilst Miss Annie
Hartman was on her way home, she was
accosted by an unknown white man and
roughly handled. Her calls for help were
heard by Mr. Jacob Sham, who Immediately
went to her assistance, and whose arrival
caused the scoundrel to leave in hurry.
Her dress was considerably torn by the
ruffian, otherwise she was uninjured.
Numerous parties in this city and county,
have discovered within the past week that
the honey-bees are again attacking the
grapes and destroying the clusters. The
bees are reported as greedily attacking the
rich clusters for the sweets to be obtained
from them and thus a large amount of choice
fruit is ruined Parties who keep bees
should endeavor to devise some plan by
which the bees can be kept upon their own
premises, and their neighbor's fruit thus pro-
tected from injury.
THAT last clause looks very nice in print,
brother Eds, but who the ID would he
able to fence 'em in g-SENTINEL.
Mr. John Wenner, brother of Charles f.
Wenner, and well known and respected
farmer, residing in Petersvile District, at
tempted suicide on Friday morning last, by
shooting himself several times in the head
with revolver Depression of spirits re-
sulting from business troubles is believed to
have been the cause of the rash act.
EARLY Monday morning tenement house
on the farm of Mr.. Francis Seacrist, near
Lime Kiln Switch, caught fire and was de-
stroyed. The loss is about $500.
There have been more picnics and excur-
sions from Frederick this summer than per-
haps ever before. This either denotes that
times are getting better or that people arc
getting more extravagant and fond of pleas
ure. Probably the latter :.
On Monday last, Miss Louisa Henson,
whilst walkingacross the floor in the kitchen
of the City Hotel, fell across the stove and
severely burnt her right hand and arm
Elmer Main, aged II years, residing in the
vicinity of New Market, met with severe
accident on Monday. He was driving spir-
tied young horse, and on leaving Frederick
to return home, the animal took fright Just
outside of the city limits and ran away Ell
mer was thrown from the wagon and had
his arm broken at the wrist, his leg badly
cut, and was severely bruised besides. The
horse ran distance of nearly two miles,
almost completely demolishing the wagon,
and injuring itself to such an extent that it
is scarcely expected it will ever be OF any
service 10 its owner

Republican County Convention


The delegates ofthis county assembled at the
Court House on Saturday. A very fair rep
resentation of every district was present,
and after selecting II. G. Hallowel, ESQ.,, as
chairman and G. +. Purdum, Secretary, the
following named persons were nominated
and voted for as delegates to Oakland, which
convention assembled yesterday the four
receiving the highest votes were elected to
represent this county:
Purdum 81, Jones /, Miller 95, johnson
30, Monday 6S, Dawson 6s, Lancaster s6,
Bell 40.
A tie vote existing between Messrs. Daw-
son and Monday, another ballot was ordered
with the following result Monday 70, Daw-
son 40, making the delegation to consist of
Messrs. Purdum, Miller, Monday and Lam
caster.
On motion Of Mr., II, A. Dawson, the del
egates were instructed to vote and work for
the nomination of Hon. Milton G. Urner.
1t is alleged that some of the colored del
egates were deceived and voted contrary
to their wishes and the instructions of their
constituents. Aside from large fund of
amusement to the irrepressible "small boy"
and an exhibit of the harmonious work
ings" of the Radical party to the people at
large, the convention amounted to nothing
but waste OF time, patience and temper on
the part al those engaged in the ring.

Ratification Meeting.-on THURSDAY


OF last week the Democrats of Washington,
assisted by their brethren of the surround
ing country, ratified the nomination of Han
cock and English in manner worthy the
standard bearers of the great Democratic
party, and was the grandest demonstration
OF the kind ever witnessed in that CITY,
Train after train on the various railroads
entering the city came ladened with the
sturdy yeomanry of the country; the mer-
chant had closed his store, the mechanic had
dropped his tools, the laboror had left his
work and the artist his pencil and easel to
participate in the great event of the season.
At 1880 the torchlight procession under
the direction of the marshal and his assist
ants began its march from Sixth and X
streets This procession was over two miles
in length, and it was estimated that over ten
thousand took part in it. Pennsylvania
avenue was a perfect jam of human beings
through which the procession moved in
steady and orderly manner amid full and
profuse display of fireworks, red lights, bombs,
etc. Alter march Of about five miles the
procession congregated in front of City Hall,
or so much of it as could get there. A large
stand had been erected which was decorated
with flags, gas jets, chinese lanterns, etc
The meeting was called to order at $3.50
o'clock by Mr.. Dickson as chairman of the
Central Democratic Committee of the Dis
trct of Columbia who presented that dis
tinguished veteran soldier in the Democratic
ranks, Joseph H. Bradley, Esq, as perma-
nent president of the meeting. Although
the meeting was most certainly honored by
this gentleman presiding over its delibera-
ton, yet we think if he had been one of the
speakers of the occasion it would have been
better for all, His large and varied expert
ence, together with his great eloquence and
logical force would have carried with each
declaration convincing proofs that our cause
is just and as imperishable as adamant.
Among the other speakers who addressed
the meeting was Hon. John w. Daniels, of
Virginia; Senator John I. Morgan, of Ala
bama ex-senator Poole, of North Carolina,
Hon. Montgomery Blair, of this county,
and H. o. Claughton. An overflow meet
ing was organized ON the West side of City
Hail. Capt. Jas. Goddard, of Georgetown,
presided. Capt. VIM McWilliams, of Bal
timore, was the first speaker, and Capt. Pay
ton, of Virginia, a class mate of Gen. Han
cock, and others followed in convincing and
eloquent speeches
Financially speaking, and to give our
readers an idea of the magnificence of the
torchlight procession, fireworks, etc, we
will state that the committee of arrange
ments paid out about $1,015H
Great praise is due the police of the city
for their prompt and untiring efforts to pre-
serve order, especially the mounted force
who suddenly put quietus on riotous
demonstration made by some 400 negroes
near 10th and Pennsylvania avenue

The Fair.-The Twenty seventh Annual
Exhibition of the Agricultural society of
Montgomery county begins on Wednesday
next. 1t is expected that the present will
surpass in point of excellence, numbers and
quality the Fairs Of former years 1t should
be the duty of every good citizen of the
county to lend helping hand to this praise
worthy object, either by contributing to its
exhibits, by attendance of one day or the
whole season of the fair, or by giving coun-
sci and experience to those who come to
learn. The State appropriation Of $500 has
been taken away from the Association and
it now rests with the farmers, tradesmen and
business men to keep the Society atloat and
in good healthy state of existence. 1t is
not saying too much when we assert that
this can, and we trust will be done
We, the people of Old Montgomery, are
making rapid and gigantic strides in every
branch of industry and art--our population,
within the last decade, has increased over
4,249. In this, the Sixth Congressional Dis
trict, our county, with one exception, the
smallest, has increased in numbers more
than any of the Others so far as the census
returns are given, as the following table will
show:
