NJ RITZ EAST, MD, Oct % The Balti-
more x Ohio Railroad Company has paid
the creditors "a Driesbach 4 Wilcox, con
tractors, n CENTS on the dollar for bills
contracted in September. The feeling in
this region ID very bitter against the con
tractors, who, it seems, were paid by the
railroad company what was due them ior
this months Of July and August, but who
refused to pay those to whom they were
indsbted. Consequently, SONS citizens
loss individually as high as 5000, 1t is
said that merchants trusted Messrs
Driesbaoh 4 Wilcox solely because they
came endorsed by the B. & @. company
Citizens arc considerably incensed at
the action of the borough commissioners
at their last meeting. On that occasion
it was moved by Commissioner Mcdaniel
that a certain citizen of PHILADELPHIA,
William Bullesu by name, be employ cd
to assess the property in the CROUCH,
preparatory TO a new tax levy. This
motion was carried, two voting for, one
voting against it, while two refused to
vote. As soon as this action was made
known, a remonstrapee was gott, up,
and it is being signed rapidly by tax
payers, against the selection of Mr..
Bolleau, who, they say, is an interested
party, he being in the employ of Mr..
Mcdaniel, large property holder in this
borough. Besides this he is not citizen
of the State. Mr.. Bolleau is employed by
Mr.. Mcdaniel to purchase property here
aud the people say that he will be biased
in his employers favor.
Within the last few nights several
houses have been broken open and food
taken, and as nothing else has been dis.
turbed, it is supposed that the depreds
tions have been committed by come
worthless drones living in this community.
People are on the lookout for the
burglars.

Cemetery. ...
Inc nnal work of setting up the hand
some granite shaft above the tomb of /. "a
lAts Henry McComl, in Wilmington
Miu orshdy~ine cemetery, WAS finished
tuesday morning, he gigantic boulder
was carved ont OF the granite qusrries at
FOX lsland, Me-, and brought to this city
on schooner. 1t weighed in all upwards
OF 80 tons, and the work OF removing it
from the Pussy Il Jones Company's
wharf was atediOus task, which, with put
ting 1t in position, required the labor OF
seven or eight men upward of two weeks.
The work of setting up the mammoth
pile was entrusted 10 George Hezitt, -
Yankee, who discharged his duties most
efficiently.
The obelisk, as Il now stands, rises 90
ieet from the ground, aud its polished
apex can be dlscerned glitterug above
The tres topa, loug distance away
Resting on foundation six fest deep of
broken stone, sand and concrete, and on q
wide base aud pedestal, the 80 ton shaft
stands upon its own bottom, 10 feet
square, without a brace or fastening OF
any kind. Its own weight and solid
foundation are sufficient to enable il to
STAND In defiance OF any storm, The
work of getting the shaft on its end, to
those unfamiliar with the power in ropes
and pulleys skilfully handled, would
seem difficult, but it was easily accom-.
plished ana liz short time.
The obelisk IS of gray granite, quarry
dressed, with marginal lines and its base
IL OF the same stone, hammered
and dressed split-iaoe, with the
same marginal lines. On the pedes.
tai in raised letters is the name,
Henry Simpson McComb, giving the dates
of his birth and death. 1t was furnished
by Ii. q, French of New York. 1t is
about the largest size that can be oh.
tanned in single piece, and few OF the
kind have been erected. Its cost, together
with the transportation and putting in
position is about $l5 900.
