Docs vs.. SHEEP.-It may be Of
some interest to our farmers to un-
derstand the legal status Of the dog
10 its propensity to kin sheep. Many
farmers have suffered great losses
from dog killing sheep, not only in
this county but 10 the State. We think
the farmers Of this State have less
real protection against the destruction
Of their sheep. than in most of Che
States of the country. 1t Isl most i'm
portant interest to our farmers, and
might be made very profitable
branch Of farming if it were protected
as it should be. Our farmers should
make their wants and rights known
to The members of the next Legisla-
ture, especially should they do so to
the members from this county, when
the time comes They should remem-
Der the old proverb, "God helps those
who help themselves" The following
IS the law in regard to this matter as
it now stand ANY person, whose
sheep have been killed or injured
by any dog or dogs may proceed
against the owner or owners of such
dog or dogs, before any Justice Of the
Peace Of this State. having jurisdic-
ton within the county where the
killing or iDjuring may have occurred
who shall forthwith issue summons
for the owner of such dog or dogs
and for such witnesses as may be
necessary to ascertain the amount of
damages sustained by such killing or
injury; and such Justice Of the Peace
shall forthwith give judgment for such
damages as may be ascertained, which
shall be collected; and such justice
shall also require the owner Of such
dog or dogs to give bond, with good
and sufficient security 10 the sum Of
not less than fifty dollars, that such
dog or dogs shall not thereafter kiln
or iDjure any sheep; and upon failure
Of such owner Of such dog Or dogs to
give such security, then said Justice
of the Peace shall require some one Of
the constables Of the county to pro-
ceed forthwith to kin such dog Or
dogs and said constable for such
killing shall be allowed the sum Of one
dollar for each dog killed By him, up-
on such order Of the Justice Of lbe

FoR many wears the merchants of

FoR many years the merchants ot
Baltimore hare been trying to induce
Congress to pay for the construction
Of ship canal across the neck Of the
Delaware Peninsula. Several routes
have been examined. Only two Of
these have been found ieasible-the
Sassafras river route and thee Choptank
river route. Congress has been asked
to make q canal on the ChOptank
route, where the cost would be $I6,-
100000. A company Of Eastern cap.
itaIists now offer to complete canal
within three years on the Sassafras
route at cost Of 100000 They
have asked the Baltimore merchants
for their support, and the merchants
still hoping for q favorable River and
Harbor bin, have refused to give it.
The Choptank route is by far the
more desirable one, but 1t seems to US
that Baltimore had better take what
she can get than be ever hoping
against hope. Congress viii never

The Importance of railroads down
the peninsula of the eastern shore and
through Southern Maryland, as urged
by the CAPITAL, is attracting consid-
cradle attention in the State. and the
Baltimore Sun publishes almost
daily communications upon the
subject. The near sightedness Of
Baltimore business men has become
proverbial, and it gives the CAPITAL
great pleasure to note that it has been
instrumental in bringing the value Of
these roads to Baltimore trade so
plainly before its merchants, that they
are beginning to realize that travel
and freight by steamboats, are q little
slower, more costly and covers less
territory than by rail. The interest
already aroused is likely to produce
some good fruits.
