The last rites of respect which it is possible
for human hands or hearts to perform were
paid to one of our most estimable and beloved
neighbors on last Thursday week, in the flu
neral and burial of Mrs Penelope Davidson,
aged about siXty-eight years, consort OF John
Davidson. She had many relatives and a
large circle of friends, who followed the re-
mains to their last resting place at Asbury
Chapel The funeral ceremonies were con-
Quoted by Messrs. Wilson and Wheeler, the
ministers of that circuit. Rev. Mr.. Wilson
preached the funeral sermon from 23d Psalm
and 4th verse. Her husband, four sons and
five daughters survive her.
Miss Carrie Barrick, the teacher at the
Sandy Mount school, was one morning last
week unexpectedly presented by her pupils
with superb cake, accompanied with note
from the school expressing the high esteem
and admiration in which they hold her, and
asking her to accept the gift as a token of
gratitude and appreciation for her skillful and
successful labors among them as their teacher
1t is said that she has a large school, number
ing over fifty scholars, and no doubt such
sentiments manifested by her pupils are well
deserved.

The judges decided in favor of the afflrma-
tive Last week the question discussed was
SIS power, with cruelty, more to be dreaded
than friendship, with treachery?" Messrs
Jesse Magee and VIM. H. Blizzard were the
speakers, and after an interesting discussion
it was decided in favor of the negative. On
last Tuesday evening a special discussion
came off between Messrs. John H. Taylor
and Jabez A. Bush. The question sis pride
a greater evil than intemperance? was de-
bated, a challenge having been given upon it,
Mr. Taylor sustaining the affirmative and Mr.
Bush the negative. A full house of ladies
and gentlemen assembled to hear the argu-
ment, each speaker occupying an hour and a
quarter. Two judges decided for the affirma-
tive and one for the negative. Mr.. Bush then
appealed to the house, when seven-eighths of
the audience decided in favor of the negative.
We would say to your Fountain Valley cor
respondent that Patapsco is not now in the
hog business, but if the cholera does not
come and the corn does come as well as it
did last year, we shall go into the pork bust
ness again and give him the benefit of our ex-
perience about next Christmas.

The Patapsco Dairy Association met here
on Wednesday, The meeting was largely at
tended. nearly all of the prominent dairymen
ON the line of the Baltimore d Ohio Railroad
were present. The meeting was called to
consider the proposed reduction in the p1ce
of milk by the Baltimore Commercial DAIRY
men. The Association agreed UNANIMOUSLY
to resist the reduction, refusing to ship milk
unless the present prices were maintained.
The price received now is Is cents per gallon,
less two cents for freight. The South Balti-
more Association demanded reduction OF
two cents per gallon, to take effect February
1st. Many expressed establishment at pro-
posed reduction in mid winter, when the pro
duction of milk is attended with more expense
than at any other season of the year. Mr.
Thos. j. Belts gave the Association some IN
teresting statistics, and proved concluslvely
that the Commercial Dairymen OF Baltimore
city received nine -tenths of the prohts IN
milk. j. Frank Shipley advocated concert OF
action and framed the resolution to resist the
reduction, which all signed. Two dealers
from Baltimore were present. Ohcers Tor
the ensuing year were elected as follows =
Capt. w. P. Gorsuch, President; Chas. K.
Favour, Secretary, and Thos. j. Belts, Cor
responding Secretary.
On Tuesday morning last, Wilson ). Harp,
q repair hand OF capt. HAL gang on IHc
Baltimore 4 Ohio Railroad, was struck by an
east bound freight train in a curve on the
railroad near Woodbine. Two trains were
passing at the time, and it is supposed he
stepped out of the way of one train, not hear
ing the approach of the other. When seen by
the fireman it was too late to save him. The
wounded man was taken to his home at Hood S
Mills. Drs. Moorehead and Sprecher were
in attendance, but his condition was so criti-
cal that he died shortly after. Justice Favour
was notified, but after learning the particulars
deemed an inquest unnecessary.

Lodge No. i34 |. 0. 0. F., were publicly in
