lower portions cool and shrink, the surface strata

LARGE BALD EAGLE KILLED.

On Wednesday morning of last week Mr.. JAS.
Smithson and his son Jason, who live near
Sandy Hook, heard commotion among the
poultry, which they discovered was caused by
large bald eagle that had already killed several
fat hens and was about to pounce upon a flock
of young turkeys. A well-directed shot brought
the so-called bird of freedom down. but it took
stout hickory club to finish him. He cutched
at the stick with his claws but finally surren-
dered to the inevitable. He measured z feet
and 2 inches across his wings and weighed, it is
estimated, forty pounds. Mr.. Smithson, who is
a good Democrat, thought it was an emissary
from jim Blaine of Maine who was trying to
capture Democratic roosters, or perhaps look
ing around to see if there were any Democratic
postmasters in the neighborhood. Like Blaine
of Maine will do, he tumbled to Old Hickory.

ALL ABOUT DoG.-About thirty or forty
men and boys and brace of noble-looking fox
hounds made up striking picture before JUS
tice Lyle, in Bel Air, last Saturday. The case
on trial was one involving the ownership of
one of the dogs, which were said to be brothers.
The dog in dispute, while in the possession of
Mr.. John Magness, of Bush, was claimed by
Mr. s. Luke Street,, of Baltimore county, and
recovered under a writ of replevin.
Mr.. Street, sworc positively that the dog was
his, and had been lost in fox hunt a year or
more ago. His brother, Abraham STREET., was
equally positive in identifying the dog. Mr..
Sherman, blacksmith, testified that he brand
cd the two dogs with red hot iron, in the right
ear of each, the scars being yet visible, and re-
cognized them again. Mr.. John A. Lamb testi-
fled that he knew the dog well, having given it
when puppy six weeks old, to his brother-i in
law, Mr.. Street,. He had reserved it for him
self, because it had the foxhnnters' sign
OF good dog, that is, "a sleepy head and q big
foot" Mr.. Richard c. France, an old fox hunt
er, also identified the dog as Mr.. Streets.
On the other side, George Richardson, colored,
was equally positive the dog was Mr.. Magness's.
The animal had been given to him when pup
Ply and he gave it to Mr.. Magness. He had seen
1t frequently since and could not be mistaken
John Magness also swore the dog was his The
animal was also identified as Magness's by
Thomas j. and Daniel Sullivan and David Nor
ton, colored In rebutta, Mr.. Oak land swore
that Richardson, had told him he did not give
dog to Magness Mr.. Geo. Y. Maynadier APP
peared for Mr.. Street, and MIR. VIM. Young for
Mr. Magness. The case was argued at length
and the justice wisely reserved his decision until
the crowd separated. A war of words took place
between the rival parties, some of whom might
have come to blows if the justice had decided
the case on the spot. Justice Lyle decided in
favor of Mr.. Street,
