MOVING, Acain for Citv Extension.

Moving Again for City Extension.-The
Baltimore San says: "The Mayor and city law
officers will confer within few days on the course
to be pursued to bring the matter of extension of
the city limits properly before the Legislature of
1885. Such legislation as may be required will
be- carefully considered and prepared, so that the
General Assembly can give this subject that at
tenton which it's Importance demands. Mayor
Latrobe says that almost daily complaints are
made by parties residing in the Belt of inadequate
water supply and the want of protection from
fire. While the city is disposed to be generous
to its neighbors, the Mayor thinks it cannot do 80
at an expense which larger water mains and an
increase of the fire department would necessitate.
Already, he says, those water mains which have
been extended into the county are so drawn upon
by the increased number of houses erected within
the past few years in the city that the wateris all
exhausted before it gets to the county. The only
remedy is larger mains, which are necessarily ex-
pensive. Under these circumstances and in view
of the great advantages of water, fire protection,
efficient police and well-paved streets, Mayor
Latrobe believes that alarge majority of the prop
erty holders in the Belt willing to become part
of the municipality of Baltimore. The best plan,
in the Mayors judgment, for testing the matter
is by an act of the Legislature to divide the Belt
into three election districts and submitting the
question to the voters of each district separately
the three elections, however, to be held on the
same day. This plan would prevent the people
of district where the majority was largely in favor
of annexation being kept out of the city by those
of another district whose opinion might now be
opposed to annexation. It was by such legisla-
tion, the Mayor says, that the limits of Boston
were extended, the districts coming in one after
the other, until now nearly all of what was a few
years since suburban territory is part OF the
city of Boston. Baltimore is the only large city
in the country which within the last twenty-iv
years has not extended its limits"

Grant and the Drummer Boy.

A well-known citizen of Baltimore writes to the
american as follows "In the year 1872 there oc-
Cured an accident at the western end of the Bal
timore and Potomac Railway tunnel, at the ter
minus, at about Monroe street, when the Wash
ing and New York coming-up express had
to lie off on a siding to await repairs. VI
course, persons in the vicinity were attracted to
the spot to see what had happened. Among the
number was young man living in that section,
who, when he had satisfied his curiority, returned
across the field and, passing near the delayed
train, he noticed man sitting on the top rail of
a post and rail fence smoking cigar. His hrst
glance at the parsonage enforced more pene-
trating look when he found him to be no less
person than General Grant. Filled with that en-
thusiasm that accompanies a recognition OF those
long parted who have braved danger and hard
ship together, he walked up to and accosted him
with great cordiality. The General returned the
sautation in the spirit but said that, though
he knew he had seen him before, yet he could not
exactly place him call his name. The young
man recalled to his memory the incident during
the war of the march Of the army from Warrenton
Junction to Culpepper Courthouse, when, being
in company with the Eleventh Infantry, United
States regulars, he spoke to little drummer boy
that was trudging wearily by his side, and, as If
noticing his tagged condition, called to him "to
hand him his drum, and he would help him along"
The little fellow, appreciating his kind oher,
handed up his drum, and the General fastened 1t
to the buckle on his saddle, feeling combined
relief of that much less to carry and the consid-
crate kindness of the commander-in-chief. The
General recollected very well the incident, and
expressed great pleasure at their meeting again
and regret that he could not accept invitation to
the citizens hospitable homo to see his namesake
in bright little boy, because of the uncertainty
of the trains delay, and so the two parted, feel
ing better for the renewal of their acquaintance.

Afraid of a Girls Gratitude.

Senator Beck, accompanied by beautiful young
lady, called upone1r. Aleck BOteler, of West Vir-
ginia, pardon clerk in the Department of Justice,
recently to urge the pardon of the brother of the
young lady referred to, who had been convicted
of the infraction of one of the United States stat
utes. Mr. Boteler did all it was possible for him
to do in the matter, and gave printed form of
recommendation for pardon to the Senator to take
to the Attorney General for his signature, if he
would approve it. The lady remained in Mr..
Boteler's room. In a short time the Senator re-
turned and handed the paper back to Mr.. Boteler.
The latter hestated about opening it lest the lady
might faint if the pardon were denied, and might
do the same if it were recommended. But, final
ly opening it, he saw the recommendation had
been made Just as he expected, the lady swoon-
ed but, recovering herself in a moment she arose,
and opening her arms, advanced toward him.
He backed behind his desk, and pointing to Mr..
Beck, said, "Him, Him !" But when she turned
to Mr.. Beck, he retreated toward the door, and,
pointing to Mr.. Boteler, repeated the latter's
words, saying, "Hm Him J" The lady by that
time had regained her selfpossession entirely,
and advancing toward neither, expressed her
thanks to both.

The Chew House, Germantown, Pa.-A
correspondent of the Mannheim, (Pa.) Sentinel
furnishes the following account of this historic
old mansion, which is still owned and occupied
by the Chew family, descendants Of which are
well-known residents of the vicinity of Towson-
town:
"Among the most famous relics of the Ameri-
can Revolution is Chew's House. This venerable
building is located on the battlefield of German
town, Pa, and is surrounded by spacious lawn.
This house is built of stone and is of the earliest
colonial style of architecture. To say the least,
the external appearance of the house is imposing,
even after sustaining severe cannonading by the
American batteries; for it was in this mansion
that numbers of the British were lodged whom the
Americans found it impossible to drive out. The
mansion bears many evidences of the lombard
ment. Here the left gable, as you face the
house, you see where ball entered, leaving hole
foot in diameter. Over there, to the right, the
stones were displaced. We were shown by Mr..
Benjamin Chew, great grandson of the Revolu-
tionary proprietor, Judge Chew, where 20-pound
ball entering one of the windows penetrated the
back wall.
"But you would laugh at the comical appear
ance presented by the various pieces of statuary
placed at intervals over the lawn. Here ball
in its reckless flight performed surgical opera
ton on the head of a marble woman, leaving the
lady minus the aforesaid appendage Here is a
man whose features once classical are sadly mar
red by the absence of the nose. One has lost an
arm, another limb, and thirdshas suffered by
the loss of two-thirds of his spinal column These
are relics in the strictest sense of the word. Mr..
Chew says that curiosity seekers have considered
them as such, and that these statues have suffered
as much from these curiosity loving cranks as
from the American balls.
"a popularity of the stone houses of Revolu-
tonary times is they were so constructed as to
stand for centuries This building will stand with
but little repairing for two hundred years; while
many of the more recently constructed palatial
dwellings in Philadelphia will be replaced by
others before another century has passed"

Sunnybrook, 10th District.-The rain
storm which visited US on the Sd inst, was the
heaviest, think, since 1868, which, by the way,
was also locust year. The streams all overhowed
their banks and vast amount of damage was the
result.
Mr. Isaac King has last over $3.50 by high
water. Two acres of his corn were submerged
and utterly ruined. He also lost so bushels OF
oats and straw and 80 bushels potatoes. Mr.. VIM.
Hall lost a bridge, as did also Mr.. Walter Conk-
lin and Mr. Joshua M. Matthews. Two bridges
on the Dulany's Valley pike were swept away,
ono at the toll-gate and one at Thos. Peerce's
The bridge at Dances mills is also gone. At Dr.
Emory's the covered bridge over the Little Gun
powder was moved from its foundation. The roads
are torn in a terrible manner and in many places
are impossible. The corn fields are prostrated
badly.
Mrs. Akehurst, wife of David P. Akehurst
died July 3Oth, after lingering illness.
On July 30th, little company, consisting Of
Messrs. P. G.. Bagley, Edward Colgan and Dr.
Chas. A. Bagley, accompanied by their families,
repaired to the fishing shore at Joppa and spent
several hours fishing, and with marked success.
The water seemed alive with the fnny tribe and
as the tide was out and the water shallow, the
men of the party stopped using the hook and line
and waded out and with their hands threw the
fish out upon the shore, when the children picked
them up as fast as they could and landed them
in the wagons. Tnls was IOunu not TO work wei
for the crabs became so troublesome that as soon
as we got about four bushels we abandoned that
way of fishing. Then we noticed large dip net
hanging on shore, attached to a stout pole, and
we let that down into the water but the combined
efforts of us all could not bring it up again. The
pole snapped in many pieces and the net remains
at the bottom, where we left it, and we will never
know whether it was loaded with crabs or fish.
While walking around there we came across an
old, neglected graveyard. Many of the tomb
stones were 80 moss-covered as to make the in
scriptions llegible. On one we succeeded in read
| ing the following:
