TRUsTEE'S SALE.

In pursuance ofa decree ofthe Circuit Court
for Carroll county sitting in equity, and of an
order of resale, will sell at Finksburg, at 8
o'clock, P. NJ, on
Saturday, the Esd day Of august, 1881,
tract or parcel of land, containing
11O ACRES, MORE OR LESS.
which is part of the Glover Hill estate, and is
now in possession of Daniel Frazier, and lies
within about one mile from Finksburg, with a
turnpike road leading to it, and within a short
distance of the Finksburg Station of the
Western Maryland Railroad. This is a really
valuable piece of property and would make a
very nice small farm. 1t will probably sell
for less than its actual value, and is well
worthy the attention of those desiring to have
a moderate sized farm. 1t will positively be
sold to the highest bidder.
The terms Of sale are, that half Of the
purchase money shall be paid in cash on the
day of sale, or on ratification by the Court,
and the balance in twelve months, to be
secured by the note of the purchaser, with
approved security, with interest. If the pur-
chaser prefers, the entire purchase money
can be paid in cash. .-,-.- II,

The avenue to the proposed hotel siteswill
shortly be located, and ground for the build

ular favor, and it conceded by Baltimoreans
who have recently visited the place to be one
of the finest locations in Maryland, 1e
1t is proposed by Mr.. Frank Brown to have
grand celebration here at the opening of the
new depot. There is no reason why Sykes
vile should not attract excursionists from all
parts of the state, for there is no place better
known. Mr.. Brown has recently laid off into
lots of one acre each the land adjoining
Springfield Church. There are about forty
lots, intersected by broad avenues. These
lots are now in the Market and so great is the
demand for lots of this size that all will be
rapidly disposed of Howard county has a
hankering after all of Sykesville. Some favor
the project, yet the majority oppose 1t. The
remoteness of this district from Westminster
is often a subject of remark. Many of our
citizens have to travel twenty miles to reach
the county seat. The distance has often been
found to be a drawback. At political con-
ventions, for instance, when delegate
reaches Westminster he finds everything fixed
up, and he might as well turn his horse again
towards home. This political complaint,
however, we believe is general in all the dis
tricts. We never have any trouble at politi
cal primaries in this district, yet we think if
the people had representation of seventy
five Instead of only five they would be better
satisfied, for there are generally that many
who want to go to every convention.
Mr.. John Harris, who has always been an
enthusiastic Republican and member of the
county central committee of that party, has
resigned his position and declared for st.
John. He is still in the harness business.
The ladies of Springfield Church will hold

Some of our people are determined to stop

take the longest trips. st p

IRON TONIC AND, BLOOD
PURIFIER,

The only preparation of iron in solution in
which the iron has not been oxidized or rusted.
Everyone knows that iron in most any form
is good tonic; but when you have prepa.
ration of iron in solution, in which the iron
has not been rusted, you have superior ar
ticle. Iron when oxidized or rusted has most
of its life or virtue destroyed.
This preparation is as limpid and trans
parent as spring water, and readily assimi.
lates the food taken into the stomach, the
only means of reaching the blood, and in that
manner penetrating every part of your system.
If your physician prescribes tonic for you
call his attention to this preparation, and he
will tell you that it must be the best. b
This preparation has been tried and tested
by competent physicians and pronounced the
best, and not single individual that has used
it to our knowledge but says that they have
been greatly benefited. Besides, it has made
cures in cases that physicians had treated for
years without success. tits certain remedy
in anemia, nervousness; dyspepsia, ehills and
fevers, and all diseases incident to malaria.
Female diseases, kidney and urinary or
gans, lost vitality, impotency, rheumatism,
and in convalescence from debilitating dis
eases, and, in fact, in all cases requiring a
tonic, it is the best.

Entertainment at windsor Sulphur
Springs.

| Reported for the Democratic Advocated
'sWindsor Sulphur Springs" which is the
summer name of the spacious and beautiful
buildings of New Windsor College, is, as
usual at this time of the year, filled with
summer guests. A very select company is
here this year, and a congenial and jolly COM
pany withal. The entire absence of the sons
of faithful old Abraham is conspicuous.
This, however, is perhaps we'll, and has been
manipulated adroitly by the proprietor, who
is moderately democratic, but has come to
adopt the old adage that it is best for "birds
of feather to flock together"
The guests of this resort gave an entertain
ment on last Saturday night, July 26th, con-
sisting of tableaux, music, reading, &c. The
programme was arranged by Miss Eugenia
Mordecai, q sprightly little Episcopalian from
Baltimore, assisted by Miss Hessle Miller, of
Philadelphia Mrs. A. 7. King, of Washing
ton; Mrs. r. NJ. Nelson and Mrs. d. II.
Miller, of Baltimore. The event of the even
ing was the ''Jarley Wax Works. Mr.. r. NJ
Nelson, of Baltimore, taking the part of Mrs.
farley, which he did to perfection The gen
tleman, by his witty phrases and comic man
ner, succeeded in putting the audience in the
best of humor. Mr.. Nelson also gave two
Anglo German readings in graphic style, to
the delight of the listeners. The readings by
Miss Carrie Baker, of Baltimore; Miss Annie
Miller, of Washington, N. j., and Miss Nora
Ecker, of Carroll county, were all excellent,
and were warmly applauded. The tableaux
were all very beautiful and true to nature, and
were most creditable to the participants, and
especially so to those who arranged them.
Instrumental music was given by the Misses
Snyder and Jelly and Mr. W. W. Roop, and
a vocal duet by the Misses Slingluf. At the
conclusion of the programme Terpsichore, the
fair goddess, ruled until late hour.
College hall was the scene of select audi
ence, and the exercises were greatly enjoyed.
The hope has been expressed that, though
this has been the first entertainment Of the
season, it will not be the last. Those taking
part in the tableaux are so numerous, includ-
ing nearly all the large company of young
people at the resort, and for fear of emitting
names that heartily deserve mention, we just
congratulate and commend all, wholesale and
together, and jolly good looking set of lads
and lassies they are.

WEST VIRGINIA NoMINATIoNs.-Th fusion
of the Republicans and Greenbackers of West
Virginia was completed Wednesday by the
state convention of the former party at Park
ersburg ratifying the ''half-and half ticket
nominated by the Greenbackers several
months ago The ticket is headed for Gov
ernor by ex-Judge Maxwell, of Clarksburg,
a gentleman who has figured as an extreme
Republican since the close of the war. He is
not regarded as man of any particular abil
ity, and his personal following is extremely
limited. 1t is known that the Democrats
preferred the nomination of Judge Maxwell
to any of the Republicans named for the of
fee, for the reason that his proscriptive record
will deter even the dissatisfied Democrats
from supporting him. Whether this fusion
will have any effect on the fortunes of Blaine
and Logan in the states where the Republi-
cans pose as the "hard money party" is yet
to be ascertained. d.-Balto. Sun.
