The Great Legal Battle.

The CONSUL of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road have prepared their answer to the
bills filled by Attorney General Cassidy in
the South Pennsylvania and Beech Creek
injunction cases, and will file the docu-
ments today before Judge Simonton at
Harrisburg. A large number of wit
nesses have been summoned and are ex-
pected to be present. 1t is expected that
the matter will be referred to master
to take testimony, and that several
weeks, if not months, will elapse before
the matter is decided. The great legal
battle will be participated in by lawyers
who stand in front rank in the profession
in the country. The Pennsylvania Rail-
road will be represented by Hon. John
Scott, the general solicitor; ex-Judge
James A. Logan, the assistant general
solicitor, and x-Attorney. General Wayne
Mac Veagh. Senator William NJ. Evarts
will look out for Mr.. Vanderbilt's inter-
ests, and Geo. Shiras, ESQ, will care for
the Pittsburg defendants. The attorney
general, assisted by competent counsel,
will prosecute the case. 1t has been ru-
mored that Mr.. Franklin B. Gowen will
join the attorney general in the prosecu-
ton, though this report has not been
confirmed.

1t is often asked by the readers of the
WING what has become of "Postal Card"
and the reply was that he has been TAX
ing rest, and that when rested he would
let the readers hear from him OCCASION
ally, and so here goes.
l. II. Steele has had erected near his
dwelling water tank which supplies
water in his bath rooms for all his folks,
and he can have cobb or warm baths SIM
ply by turning the spigot.
II. II. Brady Las had windmill cree
ted on his lot, on which is situated well
of pure water, about six or seven hun
dred yards (more Or less) from his resi-
dence, in this city. This wind mill throws
the water into tank in his dwelling
which supplies water for all purposes,
including fountain erected in his front
yard, in which stands an iron youth, with
arm erect, and when in operation you can
witness the little fellow playing ball,
which is great source of amusement to
young and old who pass by.
l. G. Griffith has also erected and just
completed water tank and bath room,
and we hear of several others who con-
template the same improvement.
The architect and builder of the afore-
going bathrooms, wind-mills, etc., was
w. ID. Bairck, assisted by plumber
from Wilmington and J. w. johnson &
Son, of this city, who are all master me-
chanics in their respective spheres.
The bridge across Back creek is nearly
completed, and from present appearances
will be a strong and substantial struc-

There is nothing politically to interest
us as yet, as everything is quiet all along

of thunder from a class of people who
have been disappointed in not getting
their friends to the front. I'D. 6 P.D.

Stopping MIR. CrcsWcIl's Salary.

First Comptroller Durham on Monday
stopped a requisition to pay the. salary
of j. A. J. Creswell, government coun
sci before the Court of Commissioners of
Alabama Claims, for the month of Au-
gust until it is settled that there is any
balance due him. The first comptroller
takes the ground that Mr.. Creswell is
not entitled to fixed salary of 5000
per annum, bnt that that sum is named
as limit of the fee to be allowed him
for the trial of cases. He says that the
law organizing the court provided that
the government couns, Il should receive a
reasonable compensation for each case
tried, and that subsequent laws limited
such compensation to $4,000 per annum.
The court, however, he says, neglected
to fix the amount of a reasonable COM
pensation'' and has illegally treated that
item as fixed salary. We publish else
where the other side OF this case, and t
remains to be seen whether Mr. Durham
can sustain the position he has taken,
which we very much doubt.

An EnterpriSing Crow.

Mr.. VIM. E. Wyatt, of Walnut Hill
farm, Baltimore county, last spring found
a lame crow in one of his fields and took
it to the house and cared for it. The
crow entirely recovered and seemed very
grateful to the family for their kindness.
1t became great pet, ard would hop
around and jump on their shoulders,
singing all the while. They named it
Caucus" and it would always como
when it was called. Early every morn
ing it would come into the window and
cav while the family was rising. A few
days ago small gold watch, belonging
to one of the ladies, was missing from
the bureau in her room. Finally she
found it at the barn in the hay loft,
where the crow had carried it. Satur-
day it went into one of the rooms and
tore up novel it found on the table, and
opened the Bible

Sad Accident.

The brows OF many Elkton citizens were
clouded with sorrow on Wednesday evening
last, when the report reached here that WIN.
A. Alexander, young man formerly of
this town, had been killed by the cars at
White Rock station, near Oxford, Pa, on
the Peach Bottom railroad. In the absence
of the regular brakeman, Alexander at
tempted to assist one of the tranmen, who
was friend, in coupling cars, and was
crushed to death while engaged at that task.
Alexander was about IL years old. He
learned telegraphy at Elkton, and was EN-
ployed here and at North East by both the
Overland and Baltimore & OHIO Telegraph
and Telephone companies for some time
He was related to Mr.. BENZ. Wells and Mr..
VIM. Elder of this town, and was a brother
in-law of Geo. o. Gary, editor of the North
East star. WIN. Alexander was well-known
and made many friends among the young
folks of Elkton. Although in the zenith of
that period wherein all young men SOW
their wild oats, there was good side to his
character that many would do well to imi-
tate. From all mems lives there is some
lesson to be learned, some example to TO-
low, and those found in the life of the de-
ceased were kindness of heart, sympathy
for his fellows, and generous consideration
for the feelings of those with whom he came
in contact Let us hope that if he had lived
these principles would have outrooted all
else that might have tended to the disad-
vantage of his career AMI lowering his char
acter. There is time, as we have said, in
the lives Of all young men, berore the lar
ger principles of manliness begins to appear
to them in the light of virtue, when their
spirits are possessed with freedom and
carelessness that often leads to grave and
sober faults. Generally maturity of years
and thought rid the natures of the young
of this trait, and those who in youth ap-
peared most unpromising surprise their
friends and relatives in their later years by
superb and noble conduct. In whatever
way VIM. Alexander was possessed with
these small faults, it would be unjust not to
forgive them now, and ungenorous, indeed,
not to commend the good side of his nature
"a sweet and loving disposition, tempered
with liberal Creeds of brotherhood and fel
lowship, as an example worthy to be fol-
lowed by all. The deceased was buried at
Oxford, Pa, on Friday afternoon at 9
o'clock

Tic Hon.

TO wind up the course of summer ell
tertainments, another successful dancing
party was given by the daughters of some
Of Elkton's prominent citizens on Thurs
day evening. The large and pleasant room
over the store of Mr. Charles w. Maxwell
was the scene of a brilliant assemblage
when the opening strains of one of the
latest w:.ltzcs were sounded upon the in
struments of several Wilmington must
clans. Mingled with the sounds of revelry
the light of the lamps shone down upon a
number of Elkton's fairest and bravest.
Undisturbed, as were the jewellers in the
long-ago at Belgium capitol, by the threat
ening carnage of a Waterloo, the music and
dancing and merry M aking continued until
a late hour, when the guests retired pleased
and satisfied, and the lights went out upon
4 scene rarely witnessed in Elkton.

AGED 100 YEARS.

Appetite and Digestion Good, but IA Few
Teeth Gone-AIways Drank yhiskey.
From the Globe Democrat.
Probably the oldest man in the United
States is now living near Dalton Mo-,
with his son. He is colored man, and
was born in Prince Edwards county,
was James Ewing, grandfather of John
J. and S. p. Ewing. lie has been in the
Ewing family since his birth, and calls
himself Martin Ewing. Inasmuch as the
longevity of many of these colored peo-
pie is of doubtful character, your cor
respondent will mention some facts to
corroborate the statement just made:
Col. James Ewing, whom all of the old
citizens here knew, and whose family re-
cord is extant, died in 1859 at the age of
"a. lie often mentioned to his family
that this man, Martin Ewing, was his
dry nurse, and that he was good many
years older than himself. Martin claims
that Col. Ewing was brought to his mas
ter's house Il very small boy, and his
(Martin's) business was to nurse him.
Martin says he was old enough to plough
corn at that time. Now, allowing the
Colonel to have been 2 years old when he
came to James Ewing's Martins master,
and Martin to be -, which he undoubt-
eddy was, it makes this old colored man
100 years old, as Col. Ewing would be
10 if now living.
This mans memory is good and his
mind clear. But few wrinkles furrow
his cheek. If he would die his hair his
general appearance would indicate man
about 20. He has lost but few teeth; his
eyesight is good, except cateract in one
eye, from blow forty-fve years ago.
His appetite and digestion are as good as
they were eighty years ago. He has
smoked and chewed tobacco for 10
years, and always drank wAiskey when
he could get it, though he has not been
drunk for thirty-five years. He was not
body servant of Gen. Washington, has
no recollection of ever seeing him. He
says when the British came to his mas
ter's house all the colored people were
taken to the woods and hidden. His re-
collections of campmeetings and the
Methodists are very entertaining. He
has seen hundreds shouting at once and
falling from benches in helpless, life
less state. When Lorenzo Dow preached
in his neighborhood all the negroes were
allowed to 60 nights and Sundays. lie
th. nks he was at the meeting when Dow
found the stolen axe, and tells all the
circumstances connected with it. He
has mad six wives, and his other social
experiences are good deal like Solo
mons. Martin thinks religion don't do
people good, like it did hundred years
ago, but gives it most of his time now.

An EastOn Merchants Suicide.

The store aad dwelling of Samuel f.
Tarbutton, on Railroad avenue, Easton,
remained closed at a late hour Monday
morning, which circumstances led his
clerk, Mr.. Slant, and his neighbor, Mr..
Gibson, to make an investigation. They
entered the house and found Mr.. Tarbut-
ton on a bed in his room with his throat
cut from ear to ear. A pocket-knile was
grasped in his hand with bloody blade
open. He was dead, but his body was
warm. Justice Nicols held an inquest,
and the jury rendered verdict of sui
eide. Mr.. Tarbutton came from Caro-.
line county to Easton last year, and has
been in business here since. His family,
wife and two children, were away on a
visit to her fathers in Queen Annc's. 1t
is suggested that pecuniary troubles
caused the rash act. He was about IS
years old, and was an industrious and a
steady man.
