The scheme of extending the railroad
track from the depot down Franklin
street to the vicinity of Truman & Coop
er's mill is being revived and calls out
bitter opposition from number of prop

passed an ordinance permitting the com
pany to so extend its line.

FRANK MAS appeared before Justice
Baensch on Tuesday and plead guilty to
the charge of selling liquor to minors.
the charge being preferred by woman
named Kaems. He was fined one dollar
and costs. This light fine was imposed
on the ground that the minors are about
90 years of age and would readily be
taken as men having passed their inor-
ity. T. e penalty prescribed by the
statute is fine of from one dollar to
fifty. There is abundant opportunity to
follow up this case by lodging complaints
against other saloon keepers who are
known to sell to minors; but it must be
admitted that fine of one dollar will
not be very apt to break up the practice
or give offenders wholesome fear of the
law.

1t has properly been said that teaching should
be II lifetime vocation and, not n mere starting
point for young after leaving school. We sub
santiate such sentiments if the teachers we're
compensated full -not only in Charles county,
but over the State of Maryland Some OF our
most distinguished citizens have pedagogued
in their younger days. They saw there was no
promotion, perhaps, just about the time they
had maturrd sufficiently TO conduct school
properly They perceived thai they were not
scarcely half compensated for their services
rendered in behalf of the public good. There
fore they abandon pedagoguing MS it will not
warrant them to follow the pursuit. BY so do
ing We never will have a thorough and compet-
en corps of teachers. The mode in life at The
present age, is to pursue whatever remunerates
the most Now, that promotion the examiner
ship should be granted us in this age OF pro-
gresS so some OF Us will have reward TO eX-
peCt.

not be Disappointed. You will hear from me

The Roads.

Some of our oldest citiz.nS say that they
have never seen our public roads in worse
condition then they are at present The sud
den change to warm weather with its accomp-
awning rain on the frozen roads has rendered
them very miry, and TO every day ex-
preston. the 'bUttum seems 10 have dropped
out of them In some portions of the county
travelling is accompanied with great danger 10
self and vehicle, and those whose business
compels them to 90 about do SO almost en- rsly
on horseback, and even this mode Of locomotion
is necessarily slow and laborious Mr. G 4
Hunt had the body bolt pulled from his buggy
while making short journey on wednesday
last. and our mail carrier says ii takes him near
ly two hours TO make the distance between Por.
Tobacco and the station, a distance OF less than
l ]! miles. Similar reports reached Us from all
sections, and we have the consolation ~ OF
knowing that this state of aft ,irs is likely to
continue until late in the spring. W no
would Mt be countryman?

The committee sent by the Maryland Legis
l,ture, of which Mr.. VIM. Dec. Mitchell was
member to Richmond last week to consult with
the Virginia Legislature in regard to the bound
ary line between the States and secure the pas
sage Of concurrent laws regulating the o. ster
grounds of the Potomac river and Pocomoke
sound, returned without accomplishing the de-
sired result. The conference proved to he a
failure, Virginia refusing 10 agree to the re-
quest of Maryland, and The question in dispute
between the two States must remain as they
have for years psf.
Appropos of this question We learn that a
mass-meetng Of citizens interested in the oyster
question has been called for this evening at

iect of the meeting will be to creaIe some agitt-
tiou in favor Of bill shortly 10 be introduced
into the Legislature providing for the protec-
ton Of the CJ ster beds Of the Potomac river.
AS the law is now Tram d the Potomac is sub
ject to no protec ion by either the Maryland OF
Virginia authorities, and what is worse, the
oysters there taken are sold to Northern part

privei Of e:ery shell within f, nr or five years
The propes, d bull provides that both Maryland
and Virginia shall mutually protect the river,
and whle it is nominally claimed by Mary land,
that Stale is willing 10 concede to the south
side ofthePotomac halfpossession SO as to secure
full protection. The parties interested in the
matter are also willing 10 concede to Virginia
exclusive possession Of the Pocomoke sound
provided the desired protection for the Peto-
mac is granted. The bill fui Their provides that
no oysters shall be taken from their beds be-
tween April and September /.
