Mr. EDITOR: The deepening of the chan
mel of Bush river would be Of more importance
to the farming interests of large portion of Har
ford county than any public Improvement that
could be made. The change of our system of
farming to canning has necessarily produced
large amount of freighting, and as 1t is always
difficult to get cars at the way stations the can
ners are subjected to great Inconvenience and
cost to get their cans and cases from the city at
the time which would suit them best to haul them
from the station. The same Inconvenience exists
in shipping their goods. Besides, the railroad
company has instructed its agents to charge de-
murrage on all cars that are not unloaded or load
ed within twenty -four hours after the time they
arrive at the station. Gamers who have to haul
or 10 miles-as many do-can scarcel, load car
without considerable loss in the way of demur-
rage
Now, If you can, through The Egis get the far

they will soon see the advantages of having water
facilities for shipping their canned goods, hay.

of light draft of water to do the freighting that

The advantage Of shipping grain by vessel to

THE New CoNGREss.-The forty seventh
Congress assembled at Washington on Mon
day. The Republicans, as was expected, con-
trolled the organization of the House and
elected j. Warren Keifer, of Ohio as Speaker,
and Edward Mcpherson, of Pennsylvania,
as Clerk. The Democrats voted for Mr.. Ran.
dali for Speaker, and Geo. NJ. Adams, of
Kentucky, for Clerk The Greenbackers,
eight in number, also went through the form
of making nominations and voting for their
candidates.
In the Senate, business began at once.
Among the first bills proposed was one by
Senator Sherman TO provide for the issue of
three per cent government bonds. At the
last session of Congress the Democrats passed
bill to fund large part of the national
debt at three per cent, but President Hayes,
with the sanction of Sherman, vetoed it, and
the rate was fixed at 81 per cent. Hayes's
stupidity has thereby cost the country mil
lion and a-half of dollars year more than
was necessary in interest on the public debt.
This fact should be borne in mind when the
Republicans begin to boast of their economi-
cal finance measures.
Both houses of Congress are now in full
accord with President Arthur's stalwart adj
mnnistration. No place was found in the Or
ganization for Garfield Republicans.

of considerable interest and impof lance to mem
bers of the Hartford county Fire Insurance Com
pany were decided by Judge Grason, in our Cir
Gait Court, on Tuesday, in the case of the Heirs
of Henry Nelson, deceased, vs. The Mutual Fire
Insurance Company in Hartford county. The
facts were as follows
Mr.. Nelson, at the time of his death, owned
three farms in Bush River Neck, the buildings
upon all of them being insured by one policy
in the Hartford company. The property not
being susceptible of division among the heirs, 1t
was sold by a trustee. One of the farms was
purchased by Rudolph Lay and JAS L. Richard
son, on the Sth of April, 1878.
Under the bylaws of the company, the mem
bers are allowed sixty days grace, at the expira.
ton OF the year, in which to pay the interest on
their premium notes. The interest being due
on the LIST of January they are allowed until the
Richardson bought the property, in April, 1873,
the interest on the premium note for the undi-
vided property had been paid up to January LIST,
1879. On the last day of January, 1879. build
ing, on the farm purchased by Lay and Richard
son, the specific insurance on which was $3.50,
burned down Mcssrs. Lay and Richardson.
knowing that the heirs of Henry Nelson, de.
ceased, held the policy covering the insuranc
on their burned building, made no claim upon
the company 1t is alleged that evidence would
have been offered, if the case had come before a
jury, that one of the Nelson heirs, prior to the
LIST of March, 1879, informed a director of the
company of the loss, and was assured that it
would be adjusted by the company.
On the 25th of March, 1879, the company was
formally notified of the loss by the Nelson heirs,
and application for payment of the same de-
manded. The application being refused, suit
was brought.
The insurance company was represented by
Henry d Farnandis and VIM. G. Scott, Esqs.,
and the plaintiffs by Henry W. Archer and Geo.
Y. Maynadier, Esqs.
The company offered in plea for the non-pay-
ment of the claim that notice of the loss had not
been given within 30 days after it occurred, as re.
qured by the terms of the policy; that the inter-
est on the premium note, due January LIST, 1879,
had not been paid or rendered that portion of
the property covered by the policy had been
alicnated. For these and other reasons, the
company held that the policy was vitiated
and refused payment of the insurance.
Counsel for the plaintiff dcmurred to the
pleas seven in number, but Judge Grason, after
hearing argument, overruled the demurrers, and
ordered judgment to be entered for the insur-
ance company.
Judge Waters, being member Of the com.
pany, was disqualified from sitting in the case.
The points to be observed by members Of the
company are, that unless the interest on premi-

A CHASE AND A CAPTURE'-On Monday Rev.
A. j. Barrow, rector OF St. Johns Episcopal
Church, Kingsville, Baltimore county, while on
visit to brother clergyman in Bel Air, left his
horse and carriage at the Changers Hotel. Dur.
ing the afternoon two men adroitly managed to
obtain possession of the horse and vehicle and
drove off in it, One of them engaged in CONVEX
saton in the bar room with Mr.. Forwood, the
proprietor of the hotel, while the other went to
the hoster in the yard, and ordered the horse
and carriage. The hostlcr asked him where the
other gentlemen were who came in the carriage,
and the reply was that they were waiting in front
of the hotel The two men then got INTO the
carriage and drove Off in the direction of
Churchvie. Several hours afterwards Rev Mr.
Barrow came for Lis horse, when the robbery
was discovered. Mr.. Forwood, Mr.. j. Fl. Der.
rian, of New York, who had accompanied Mr..
Barrow to Bel Air and Deputy Sheriff White
ford, Immediately started in pursuit, and traced
the men to Churchville, where they stopped to
take drink. From there the men went to
Tlopewcll, and turned at that point in the direc-
tion of Chenille. Near the cheese factory, on
the lIopcwel and Chenille road, they were
ovcrhaulcd Mr.. Forwooi spraug out of his
buggy and seizing the bride of the stolen horse
ordered The men to surrender. They threatened
resistance, but the sight of pistol in Mr. For
woods hands quoted them. They were brought
back 10 Bel Air, with the stolen property, and
lodged in Jail. Their names are John II. Fergu-
son, living near Prospect School House, and
David A. Hawkins, of Stafford Locks. Justice
Snowden committed them to Jail, in default of
1900 security each, for their appearance at the
February term of court.
