They had an earthquake at Bel Air, !
Hartford county, and vicinity, Il little after
one O'Clock, on last Monday morning The |
shock was distinctly felt, and was accompa-
MED by a loud report. The shock awakened
many persons from sleep. 1t lasted but

quakes. while she can only boast Of tie
latter.
Mr.. Clinton White, of this town, one
night this week, caught over half :; barrel
of mullets in a fyke net. The net became
so crowded with the fish, that their move
lnents and the force of the current together
broke it loose from its moorings, and it had
tioated down some distance and lodged on
| the edge of the marsh, where the tide fell
| away and left it high and dry. The fish,
however. were found all safe and in good
condition in the morning.

He shouldered his drunken companion as
an Italian musician shoulders harp, and |
at a distance presented much such an ap-
pearance. There was no music in the in
strument he carried, however: naught but
bad whiskey.
We call attention to the new card of |
Messrs. p. Plunkett 4 Co, of Wilmington, |
Del. This is one OF the best and most relia-
BILE houses in the trade and persons order |
ing from them may rest assured that they |
will get the very best goods for the least |
money that the market affords. The Plum |
ketts are also among the oldest dealers in |
this line, in Wilmington, or perhaps in the
country, and always sustained an enviable |
reputation for fair dealing and accurate
knowledge of the trade. Write for their |
catalogue of prices.
AS time for moving, and refurnishing
the houses and giving the interior an over
hauling, is here, wsuld commend to all |
those who desire to buy new or have second
hand furniture, mattresses, s.. renovated
and repaired, the stock OF w. Il. Heatzig,
on Main street, opposite the old Exchange
Hotel. He has on hand Il full line OF suits,
of all qualities, lounges, chairs, rockers,
single pieces of any kind, mattresses, g.:
all of his own make, hand. made throughout,
which he guarantees as first quality, and
very low for cash. Give him trial before
buying.
Mr. Geo A. Brown, son Of John f.
Brown, Est, of this town, is a candidate
for town bailiti.. 1t is altogether unneces-
sary to say anything in relation to the cha
racter of Mr. Brown, as he is well known,
having spent his entire life among The peo-
pie of this town. We will say, however,
that for honesty, integrity, and prompt bus
mess qualifications, he is the peer of any
man, and would make tirst-class official.
The number of candidates is daily increas-
ing. We will, in ample time before the
election, give our readers full list of
them.
The advertisement of the New York
Sun which commences this week in our
columns will be continued for three months.
The San says the circulation of its several
editions last year was y, 536 $50, against 3d.
$50, 9l9 the year previous. The san, while
it furnishes live and generally acceptable
newspaper at very low rate, cxpends "A
great deal of money to advertise the fact.
This is one Of the secrets OF its success
TIE Sun believes that every man should
subscribe for and literally support his local
newspaper first and foremost. Having
done this conscientiously and faithfully, ii
advises all those who may wish to supple
ment their town or county paper with a
metropolitan journal, TO give the SIN
trial.
The season. prolific of fresh fish, when
the horn OF the trader is heard in the land,
and housekeepers are solicited to buy by all
of b,t,u uI,
means become possessed Of barrow or
cart load of the tinny tribe, is upon us; and
we would suggest to our readers the follow
ing facts: When the storms of winter
howled around our dwellings, and tine
snow and rain kept all but the most robust
indoors; when the markets were bare of
tempting delicaceS for the table, Giles re-
gardless OF the weather, brought to orr
doors choice sea-tshes and delicious oysters,
thereby filling the vacant plate and pleasing
tine palate. His profits We're small, In: still |
he psrseveret, and at all hours of day or
night was quick to respond 20 Orders. Now
that the time has come when fair weather
and plenty Of fish frees The trailing in them
from all discomforts, and Il living profit
may be made is it any more than reasona-
bic that he should look to his winter custo-
mers for continuance OF their trade
through the opening season, instead OF their
buying from anybody and everybody who
may chance along. We wot not This is
what he asks, and this, we believe, the peo-
pie of Elkton will grant him.
