MORGAN COUNTY.
A Newsy LeIter.

Eds. Independent
What is the news in Morgan ?
That is what your readers want to
know, and at your request, propose
giving it to you briefly.
Our circuit court was in session
last week, and was largely attended
by distinguished attorneys from
Berkeley, Jefferson and Frederick.
The grand jury went to work with
will and brought in numerous in
dictments. There We're severed Grim
inal cases tried-Morgan Thompson
was sent to Penitentiary for two
years and Denton BuZzerd was fined
SO and imprisoned eight hours in
county Jail.
Thes Indictment against Green
and Deford & Co., for throwing Of
fensive substances, &C., into Warm
Spring Run goes over to next term.
Jacob Siler indicted for murder
appeared and pleaded not guilty. His
counsel, Hon. E. Boyd Faulkner,
made application for bail. The mo-
tion was heard by the court and bail
was fixed at $4,000, bond executed
and case continued until next term
Of court.
j. Wesley Vanarsdall, indicted for
grand larceny, was released on bail.
j. b. Culp, indicted for feloniously
cutting, &C., with intent to main,
&C., released on bail.
To indictment against Trustees of
Berkeley Springs, Hon. Z. j. Faux
ner filed a demurrer, which was ar
gued by himself and A. r. Pendle-
ton, Esq, for the State. Demurrer
sustained and indictment dismissed.
Interesting arguments upon de-
murrer, petition for rehearing, &C.,
were made by Messrs. G. J. Faux
ner, w. III. Travers, e. Boyd Faux
ner, A. K. Pendleton, Il. W. Harri-
son, j. s. Duckwall, w. III. H. Flick,
j. n. Wisner and w. II. Baker.
The lawyers all seem to enjoy
themselves, and Green, of the Flor
ence House, was kept moving to
make them all comfortable during
the cold spell.
We saw Messrs. Eichelberger, jan
ney, Geyer and Kearfott here at diff
ferent times during the week.
Hon. Beverly Tucker and family
are now occupying the Baker prop
erty.
s. B. Edminston is announced as
a candidate for Superintendent of
Free Schools.
Election for Mayor, Recorder and
five councilmen for town of Bath
takes place on May 7th.
w. G.. Catlett has built neat
brick store house on the Carter prop
erty.
What does the removal of DR.. Z.
B. Camden, our Superintendent of
the Asylum at Weston, mean Is it
for cause? The citizens of the State
are all interested in having capable
and efficient men in such positions,
and We have never heard the doctor
himself, or his management of that
institution, spoken OF but in the
highest terms. Was he removed on
account of his politics /? Hardly, as
we take it for granted that he is a
Democrat. We have heard it said
that what constituted Jackson
man in the olden time was to be for
Jackson first, last and all the time.
Nothing short of this made you a
simon pure, and of course a leader
impresses his followers with the
same sentiments. Now whether DIR.
Camden came up to the standard or
not, we don't know, and can't say.
Some of your readers who are better
Informed than we are can answer
the question. EX.

THE STATE GRANGE.
The Mission Of The Grange.


The next annual meeting of the
State Grange will be held in McMinn-
vile, beginning August II, 1881, at
the College street Methodist church
The preliminary arrangements have
been and are being made to accommo-
date the delegates. Hon. Asa Faux
ner, who has contributed so much to
the success Of the movement, as well
as to the general progress and develop
mont Of manufacturing industries in
our midst, will deliver the address Of
welcome to the delegates, aud the broth
orhood will do ali chat can be done to
make the meeting pleasant and profit
able one,
Whatever may have been the object
and practices Of this organization we
hope it will show 10 the world that its
mission is a benevolent one, and IFS
aims are higher than the mere pulling
down of other persuis to raise itself
into being. The pursuit ofagriculture
/ is the most ancient and honorable
known among men, and is Justly re-
parded as the basis of All other mar
suits and professions. While this is
true, its friends should not forget the
important fact that the foundation is
not the building and is useless without
the superstructlre. The middle man,
about whom so much has been said, is
a necessary factor in the commerce Of
the world, and serves as a connecting
link to bind all the parts into one stu.
pendons whole. Political economy
teaches that a division Of labor is es
soutial to its efficiency, and that it il
not the interest Of the farmer to under
take to carry bis products to their fna
destination nor convert them into ware
but that he should put them upon tb
market as soon as possible and with tn
least transportation practicable thati
is not profitable for one man or elias

Saved from a Living Death; or, Hy-

The Wonderful Deliverance of Win.
frey Hall, by Rev. j. Randolph
Haggard. Arnold q Nichol pub
fishers, Sycamore, Ill.
This is a pamphlet of Ga pages re-
citing some wonderful experiences Of a
victim of that dreaded disease known
as hydrophobia, and his final cure
through the fundamentally of prayer.
The conspectus is briefly this; Win
frey Hail. living in Coosa Valley, Ala
bama, is suddenly aroused one night by
the barking Of dogs and as he was rising
from his bed a mad fox leaped into his
room and bit him two or three times.
He captures and kills the fox and goes
into hydrophobia, lives three Or four
years in great misery, is converted, and
is immersed in water without any fear
of it for one day, after which the by
drophobia returns as before and affiicts
him for years, and he is finally relieved
from all pmoxyms and pain, yet expe-
riences the fear of water so he can NOT
witness Others immersed. Twelve
/ years after being bit he dies a devoted
christian.

AS the work deals with faith rather
than science all opinions as to its merits
are useless. In the realms of faitl
there are no judges except him who ex
ercises the faith.

Creameries.

The attention OF the dairsmeE nf other
sections Of the State is being called to To
success achieved in other places hv creamer-
les the Baltimore says:
The New England crea meries have been so
successful and the product Of butter and
cheese for domestic consumption and for
export has been so large, and generally AS
profitable, that many farmers of Fennsyl-
vaua haze of late years either individually
or by forming joint stock companies, enter
ell into the business. TLssG factories, hay
ing all the modern appliances for facilitating
the operations OF butter and cheese making,
take ali the milk produced by the neghbor-
ing farmers at a specific price for conversion
into the articles we have mentioned. The
cleanliness and perfection of the processt S
used have given to the butter and cheese
produced at the creameres higher value
than that made by many dairy farmers,
while the cost of manufacture, taking time
and labor into consideration, is less. The
Sun long since called attention 10 the
Eastern creameries, and described the way
i'll which they were operated ana the bene-
fit that accrued to the agricultural neigh
borheods where they were sitsated. The
extension of the business into PepnsF lvania
and close upon our own borders, brings
home to our own farmers the suggestion
made, whether it would not he a good thing
to establish also in Nary land sitnilar cream
cries, seeing how successful they have been
in other States.

Improvement of Maryland Rivers.

Colonel Craighll says that all the work
required to furnishing additional facilities
for the Fish Commission ut Havre de Grace

year 1881. The appropriation Of Sl5, 900 Of
March $, 1881, was for the river above and
spent above Havre de Grace prior TO July t.,

indicated the necessity for the removal of
$1,000 cubic yards of material between
Havre de Grace and Port Deposit to make

water and fifty feet wide. Some additional!
dredging may also he needed To- give greater
width to the channel below Havre de Grace.

after a special report. with the estimates

Concerning the dredging Of North East
River the report says: The result has been
a channel not less than from five and Il half
miles, from the town of North East TO the
mouth OF the river OF the Sahe name or
the work in ELK River, the report says:
When the existing contracts are finished,
which will exhaust considerable funds,
there will be needed the removal of $4,000
cubic yards OF material TO complete the
original project Of eXcayating channel
seventy five feet wide and eight feet deep at
mean low water up to the town of flkton,
with a turning basin at the wharves. This,
