Our Agricultural Society.

Mr. Editor Your editorial in the last
issue Of the Sentinel upon the subject of the
Agricultural Society, by its thoughtful tone
and evident interest in the Society, invites
attention TO this crisis in its history. II is
useless to speak now of its value to our citi-
Zens, for all know that its influence for good
is very great. Since its early days when the
Peters, Brookes, Dunlops and other leading
men met in social intercourse and renewed
the ties of common interest in our common
county, TO the better times when we all
meet and exchange friendly greetings and
awaken renewed enthusiasm in our calling,
it has been u bond of union that must never
be severed The practical point then, is the
best method of removing the Indebtedness,
created, as you justly observe, by no fault,
but by unfortunate weather. The two plans
proposed are: To mortgage the property, or
to raise the needed sum by voluntary sub
scriptions.
1t is said by some that the first is most
business.like arrangement, but in the man.
agement of such society we are not guided
altogether by pure business ideas, especially
so far as mere business transactions are con-
cerned There is something closer than bust
ness relations in the connection between the
Society and the people of the county. II has
a hold upon their affections. To mortgage
our beautiful grounds would be a "damper"
upon our enthusiasm, and there is too great
a tendency in individuals and associations to
rest easy under such load
If on the contrary, citizens of the county
are appealed to in proper way, there will,
/ have every confidence, be sufficient funds
raised to liquidate the Indebtedness without
the tidious legal formalites required in the
former case.
II is dark hour, and the Board of Man
agement will never rest easy until all sur
plus funds are safely placed and the amount
advanced returned to the donors This has
been done in former periods of difficulty,
and our fathers receive but poor return for
their efforts if their teachings find US less
willing in these more prosperous days to
come TO the aid of a cherished institution.
The gentlemen recently appointed, perhaps,
thinking some other method would be tried,
did not canvass the county. know of nearly
$500 that could have been collected within
one mile ofmy house, and yet none of us were
asked for a subscription. If the President
and Secretary will make tour Of the coun-
ty, being paid for their time as any other
agent should be, they will doubtless be able
to raise all needed funds
throw out these hasty ideas, Mr.. Editor,
from deep interest and with the hope that
Others whose interest is even greater than
mine will discuss the question.
One thing is certain, we all want what is
best for the Society, and IL only remains TO
find out what the best thing is.

Potomac was well represented at the in

No chance for blowing, except through
the mud; wheat looks sick provender will

long; stock generally looks well, as they

Repairs on the Chesapeake and Ohio canal

ent, says he will let the water in on the goth.
Still no payday; it is feared that the sight
of money would cause color blindness
The horses Of Capt John Mcdonald and
Others are suffering from the epizootic, so as
TO unfit them for work. 1t is feared that it
will spread again and cause much delay in
getting in the Spring crops.
Mr. Charles Stone, of H., was handling
glycerine cartridge at the Montgomery
gold mines, last week, when it exploded and
injured him TO such an extent as TO lay him
up. He made narrow escape from DEATH
1t was feared that President Garfield would
call on this community to furnish the vacu-
um in bis cabinet, but we are glad TO say
it was filled without putting us to such an
ordeal, but we can and will fill some posi-
ton on the county ticket next November.

Closing of the Schools.

reasons, for closing the public schools. |

munication, (see SENTINEL of Feb. 1877 that
the reasons given in the notice 10 teachers
were just exactly no reasons at ALL Perhaps
the Board deems an anonymous communi-
cation unworthy of notice; but anonymous
communications may be worthy Of notice.
A writer's name, according TO his import
ance or insignifcance in the community,
adds to or detracts from the influence of his
communication, and sometimes quite I'M
justly, while the anonymous article weighs
only for what its matter makes IL worth.
Perhaps, however, the Board believe tho
assigned reasons to be good, or they think
the people silly enough to believe them
to be so, and so adhere TO them unmod-
flied or unexplained.
But, Mr. Editor, the people do not believe
their excuses, and unless more explicit and
satisfactory account is given of how the
$4,000, levied for the school year 1880-'8l,
have been expended, they (the people, will
protest against another dollar ever being
levied TO be expended by the present School
Board.
The tax for school purposes is paid cheer
fully. The most chronic gFpmbler at high
taxes never has word TO say about the
school tax but If on full levy we are 70
have but half years schooling, there will
be reason for grumbling, there will be reason
for protesting, theys will bs reason to lay the
matter before the gFandjury, To SEQ II that

The American Farmer for March is

Inc n american FARMER Tor March Is
rich in practical and suggestive materials
Especially attractive to fruit growers and
gardeners are the numerous articles from
the most eminent horticulturists in this
country, the contributors including such
authorities as President Marshall p Wilder,
of the American Pathological Society VIM.
Saunders, of the U. S. Agricultural Depart
ment; John Saul. of Washington; Messrs.
Leighton and Fitz, of Virginia; William d.
breckenridge and w. F. Massey, of Mary
land, with many others of reputation for
skill in their specialties-the trucking crops
receiving special space and care. A paper
from an able correspondent, L. G., of Mary
land, on Land, Labor and immigration, will
command by its lucid and statesmanlike
views the attention of every intelligent
reader in the Southern Atlantic States.
A great variety of farm topics is treated,
including seasonable work in every depart
ment of the farm, orchard, fruit, vegetable
and flower gardens, and among live stock,
poultry and bees. There is an interesting
Home Department for the ladies, managed
with tact and elegance. An useful plan for
barn is given, and numerous other engrav-
ings which elncidate the text The Farmer
is clearly but compactly printed, and every
line is of value. 1t is invaluable to the
farmer and his family. The subscription is
$3.50 year, or only 81 to clubs of five or
over Sam'l Sands & Son, Baltimore, pub

Turnpikes.

NJ. Editor Il note in your last issue re-
ports from different parts of the county Of
the terrible condition of the roads.
Those OF us who are so fortunate as to re-
side in this section of the county have occa-
sionally to wade through the mud for short
distances; thanks TO our good turnpike roads
this does not often occur.
see no good reason why other parts OF
our county should not be equally forward
as we are in this respect, and desire to call
attention to a law in force in Washington
county somewhat to this effect, as | under
stand:
Whenever the people on u line of road are
willing to furnish one-half the sum neces-
sary to make u turnpike road, the County
Commissioners are authorized 10 furnish
the other halt, to be raised if necessary by
the issue of bonds. .. ......,,...
know this suggestion will at once raise
an alarm Of increase of taxation, &c, but we
must bear in mind that the building Of these
substantial roads at once puts a stop to the
almost utter waste fmoney on our dirt roads;
also that the increased basis of taxation pro-
duced by these turnpikes will easily pay off
the bonds at maturity,
The low rate of interest now prevailing
would enable our county with its good
credit to negotiate bonds at par at a rate of
interest not to exceed 5 per cent should
be glad to hear from others on this subject.
Respectfully,
raj.
