Some silly stories about Mr. Ira Davenport
have been circulated in the Democratic news
Dapers, in effect that he was not popular among
his townspeOplc. A letter to HE TRIBUNE
from Bath shows that, on the contrary, Mr.
Davenport is justly held i'll high esteem at
home His wealth has been literally used in
advancing local business interests, charities
like the Orphan Asylum and the Soldiers Home,
as well as the churches. of cOui SO man might
be liberal in this way and vet be unpopular
with ais fellow citizons; but it will be noted
that in his native place whenever candidate
for office Mr.. Davenport has run ahead OF his
ticket.
Probably much sympathy will be felt for the

nenalty upon one but il is well enough to bear
in mind that Mrs Dluse calmly killed her hus-
hand with an axe aud had heI children ard Il
nepbew help her 1t mp the body. Then she
burned the pieces as she found time while
doing her usual hOuscwOrk. She did not like

The Cyclone.

The first appearance of the cyclone Of
Monday afternoon in Cecil county was
observed in Elk Neck at Harris Meeting
House. Here the residents of The vicn-
ity were aroused by tremendous roar
ing sound and by the darkening of the
atmosphere, ard were lead to believe
that something very far from the usual
happenings was about to occur. The
residents OF tue vicinity, with others
who had come out from the city to
escape the hot wave, were held in mortal
terror, and as the heavy wind took off
the roof Of one building after another
the question was naturally asked, "W hat
will be the end Of all this ." After the
dust had settled at Marley, which did
not take more than a minute or two, it
was found that J ohm Dowd and Samuel
Ferguson were beneath the wreck of the
stack which had been blown down. Both
men were taken out with slight injuries,
but it certainly was a precarious condi-
ton. Henry Brown, colored, was blown
clear over his wagon at Marley All
three OF the men were more or less hurt,
but not seriously

DEATH OF G. G. WRIGHT.

Our community was shocked on Friday
evening last by the announcement of the
death Of Christopher c. Wright, n we'll
known and popular young citizen of Elk
ton, who had been sick for Il week pre-
Viuus, but Of his death very few had any
expectation of hearing Mr.. Wright was Il
stout muscular man, full of life and spirit,
and about the last one in our little comma
nifty whom any one clasSed rs tit subject
for the grim monster death. He was APP
parcutly in robust health n week ten
days previous To his death, and during his
sickness he bore up So manfuiiy that his
most intimate friends were deceived, hardly
dreaming of Il fatal termination of tue at
tack. Ills disease WAS typh.id fever.
Within twelve hours, or even less before lie
died, he convrrscd nationally and seemed
physically too strong for man anywhere
near deaths door, and remarked Ia a friend
that the idea OF he being sick unto death
was a mistaken one; even it is said, going
so far as to remark sob am not going to
die, am much better today
The deceased was a young man Of far
more than the average of high moral char
acter. He was, it might almest be said, an
enthusiastic christian, holding his duties
i'll that direction first and foremost OF his
daily work. Sunday after Sunday, beneath
sunshine or through storm he visited
Croucl.'s Chapel to take his place in the
Sabbath School, in which lie had the most
unbOunded interest. lie WAS a genial,
opcn-heartcd friend, and an enemy to 10
one. Truly it can be said OF the deceased
that he had nos one enemy in the world.
His occupation was that OF carriage
smith, and lie carried into his business that
enthusiasm aud thOroughncsa which char
acterized him in everything he undertook,
and was known fur and wide as one of the
most expert workers Of iron; in fact it has
frequently been said of him, that lie could
make anything of iron or steele tlat any
one else could. From respectable, though
humble origin, he worked his way up IN
til he was respected by every one, and UNI
til by his inventive genius, unaidcd by any
one, he had by Il patent recently granted by
the United States Government, lain the
foundation of certain fortune, had he been
spared, to reap the product of his efforts.
His funeral took place on last Monday
afternoon at O'Clock. Services We're held
in the NJ. f. church, of which he was an
honored member, the Rev. Mr.. Otis, the
pastor officiating. His euiogy of the de-
ceased was most touching, and at the same
time true to the letter, which is not always
the case. His remains We're Inferred in the
Elkton cemetery, and so ended the earthly
career of one who had as much right to
look forward to ripe old age as any, but
who was called away even before he had
enjoyed half the allotted term.

THE FAR CREEK BRIDGE.

EDITOR WUIG-Can it be possible that
the Board of County Commissioners in
tend leaving the Far Creek bridge in its
present condition, emitting off all travel
from that direction. The fording is
very dangerous one, and if residents of
the district east of the creek are COM
PEELED to cross it the county may yet
have to pay out a larger sum as damages
than it would cost to repair the bridge.
To make the fordiug reasonably safe as
a crossing would cost as much as it
would to repair the bridge, and the work
would have to be done over each year, as
the annual spring rises in the creek I'M

To Prays Fervently As tho Jury Come .
With Their Verdict.
The jury in the Riel trial at Regina
last Saturday, after being cut about 50
minutes, returned a verdict of guilty.
When it was made known in the court
room that the jury had agreed all was
hustle and exitement. Rel prayed fer
vcntly, kneeling in his box, and looked
unmoved as the jury entered with the
verdict. Francis Cosgrove, the foreman,
while crying like child, announced
that he was asked by his fellow jurors
to recommend the prisoner to the mercy
of the crown, and the judge said that
the recommendation would be consid-
cred.
Riel was sentenced to be hanged on
September IS at Regina. Judge Rich
ardson said that he could hold out no
prospect of a reprieve or interference by
Her Majesty. Riel took the result coolly.
He had spoken for two hours, reviewing
the troubles of 1869, and the half-breeds'
grievances up to the present.
1t is not yet settled how the other half
breed prisoners will be charged.
