From east and west, from south to north,
That cd Vrginia's favorite son

For under him, we've victory won

DEMOCRATIC AssoCIATIoN,-The Virginia
democratic association of Washington held
a large meeting in that city last night. Rep
resentative John $. Barbour was present by
invitation and addressed the meeting. Mr..
Barbour dwelt at some length upon the re
cent campaigns in Virginia, showing that
the democrats of that State had made their
canvasses in the face of the most discourag-
ing odds, and paying them handsome trlb-
ute for their devotion and patriotism. Mr..
Barbour said also that he hoped to see the
time when both the Senators from Virginia
would be sons of whom the old State could he
proud. Mr.. Barbour was followed by seve-
raj members of the association, Colonel J.
Campbell Darlington making particularly
feeling address OF thanks to Mr.. Barbour fer
his great services to Virginia.

with painful accident at her re.idence on
Prince street last night which may result

the time are two doors, adjoining each
other, one opening into another room and
the otter leading to the cellar. Mrs. 3.
intended going into the adjoining room,
but inadvertently opened the wrong door
aud fell head-lorg down the steps. Her
daughter, Mrs J. A. Field, who was in the
house at the time, and who had left the
room for moment, on returning thereto,
missed her mother, and receiving no response
10 call, made search for and found her at
the bottom of the steps in pool Of blood,
Mrs. B. having cut herself quite severely in
her fall. DR.. Kiipstein was at once sum.

five ribs had been broken and other injuries
sustained, which may prove fatal Mrs.
Buckingham is upwards of so years old.

Thursday night last from having one of his

A Snake Pet.

DR.. Kirk has a copperhead snake
in Mason fruit jar which draws like
a circus. This species of the reptile
tribe is pretty nearly extinct in this
part of the country. The old Card
ner farm adjoining Cecil Paper Nllll
on the Octoraro occasionally affords
specimen. The Doctors present
pet came from there. A snake is a
very inexpensive pet. 1t eats nothing.
The more venomous the more stupid
they appear to be. A rattle snake
will lie for months about an old log
or rock. A noise seems to attract
them. Where children are at play.
if a rattle snake chances to have a
lair in the vicinity. the reptile will
slowly crawl whence the rattling noise
roceeds.

The farmers are beginning to put the
wheat drill to work. One thing they
don't, do harrow, roll and pack the
ground enough, and harrow and pull
verize the surface sufficiently to make
a proper seed bed for the grain, so that
the roots in place of running deep will
grow thich and strong near the surface
and not be broken by the freezing and
thawing of winter.
The drill trade is comparatively
slow this fall. Mr.. j. S. Pogue re-
ports % sales up to the present time,
but consderes the trade only COM
mencing. Last season he sold So.
For farmers who really need drills
now is the time to purchase. When
trade is slow, there is always the best
opportunity to buy cheap.

j. Dixon West carpenter and build
er of Port Deposit had his left sholder
dislocated last Thursday week in a
very singular manner. He was using
a nervous horse for some purpose and
the animal refusing to stand quietly,
Mr.. West made sudden grab for the
bride, determining to bring the animal
up with a short turn, but just missed
the rein, and this sudden movement,
without the member meeting the ex-
pected support at the eliminating
point, threw the sholder join out of
place, and the arm flew up in a perpen-
dicular position, where it remained
till drawn down by the other hand.
The physicians placed the patient
under the Influence of chloroform,
slipped the joint in place, and band
aged the injured member firmly across
his brest, in which position it was to
remain for two weeks.
