COUNTY 1rEMs.-From the Shepherds
town Register we copy the following items:
The frame work for one span, S V. Rails
road bridge, across the Potomac river at this
place, has been commenced.
On Monday last, Mr.. Frank Ray of this
place, in company with young lady, whilo
attempting to turn his horse on the road near
HofFman's Mill. below town, backed over tho
bank into the river, brenking the buggy con.
sidorably and giving himself aud lady COM
plete 'ducking."
Judging from the sentiment expressed at
tlarPer's Ferry, it does not matter to that
community who is Sheriff. the present
efficient and clever deputy Mr.. Garland Hurst
il retained. There seems to be a general
preference for tho continuance as deputies Of
Col w. a. Morgan aud Mr.. Hurst.
On Thursday of last week, at Scrabble,
while Messrs. Shepherd Greenwood and
james Alder were attempting to drill out
blast charge, which had failed to 20 off, the
Same became ignited and exploded from the
effects of their drilling, severely injuring Mr..
Alder ard badly burning the face and eyes
of Mr.. Greenwood. MIR. Alder had to have
portion of his light hand amputated.

Maj. U. J.. Boyce has purchased, a. the
cost of 500, bell formerly the property of
Lord Fairfax, of Greenway Court. 1t was
brought from England, where it was cast in
l15O-that date being stamped upon it, and
weighs 80 lbs. This bell was presented to
the Meade Memorial Church, of this village,
and was sold for the use and benefit of said

intends presenting it to the engine - Fairfax"

The May term of our circuit court com-
meuced on Monday, with Judge R. H. Tur>
ner on the bench On Monday evening his
Honor rendered his decision in the case of
Crumlish and Griffith aud other contractors
VS.. the G. l. Co the Penn. r. R. Co., and
the S. V. r. r. Goa case in which much
interest was manifested by the public, and
which was ably argued by counsel represent
ing the several interests at special term of
the court held here last February. The de-
clsion holds that the attachment of plaintiffs
obtains against the $780, 900 of stock of tho
S. V. R. R. held by the G. l. Co., but that
the claims of the other contractors are barred
from enjoying tho rights acquired by Crit
hth's attachment because of the subsequent
assignment made by the G. l. Co., to the
Penn. r. r. Co., which assignment is de,
elared to be legal and made in advance of the
action of recovery instituted by other SUBJ
contractors. This decision anuuls the action
of the stockholders meeting of the S. V. r.
R. Co, in so far as it resolved some time ago
