HAS HE GROUNDS FOR COMPLAINT?

Messrs. Editors Will you publish in your
paper the wrongs done to us, who are trying to
make living by hauling with horse and cart?-
There are members of the fire department and
police of Baltimore county who have horses and
carts and, while they are receiving salaries from
the county, which poor people are taxed to pay,
they are taking the work that we ought to have
in order to feed our families Is this right? Now,
if the county don't pay them enough to live upon
let the Commissioners give them better salaries
and we will gladly pay few cents more in taxes
and let them attend to their duties and not take
the bread out of our mouths by having horses and
carts to do hauling. 1t is bad enough to have to
compete with monied contractors, but when we
poor people have to stand by and see the office
holders doing that work which we should have, it
is hardship. If the county don't pay them
enough, and if they are anxious TO have horses
and carts because they think there is so much in
them, let them resign and let some of us fellows,
who have hard time to make living, get their
places While this state of things exists no won
der we have the Knights of Labor organizing all
over the country, and if it is allowed to continue
somebody will feel the effects of it hereafter.
JUST LABOR.

Shrewsbury, Pa.-The spring, though late,
opens with every indication of being O very prom
Using and busy one with u.s. There will be an un-
usually large summer crop put out this season,
judging from the preparations that are being made
The wheat crop has recovered somewhat from the
seven days cold blast in March, but in low ground
it is very much injured.
Ex-Sheriff Michael Stambaugh, of York, died
and was buried on Monday. Mr.. Andrew Dun
can, a prominent citizen Of Hopewell township,
died last Friday and was also buried ON Monday.
Ex.Sheriff William Martin, formerly of York
but now a resident of Hopewell, is confined to his
room and very feeble. He sold his place recently
and bought in this town, but has not heen able to
be moved.
Mr.. Thomas M. Wilson, hotel keeper Of New
Market, Baltimore county, it is reported, is lying
very low with complication of diseases. Dr.
James Gerry, of this place, was in consultation
with DR.. Cairnes, his attending physician, on his
case Monday.
The Stewartstown railroad continues to do
good business. The spring trade is unusually
heavy. By harvest the country around the an
cent town of Stewartstown will be stripped OF the
surplus produce. Building seems to be going
ground for building purposes is eagerly bought up
at fabulous prices.
The annual pay day in this State-April 1st-
passed off quietly. Money was in fair demand
and plentiful. The business transactions showed
about half million dollars of surplus which Will
yet have to seek investments either at home or
abroad. Our county is rapidly growing richer and
out of debt. The county proper should have been
out of debt long ago, but liberal expenditure OF
money on bridges and other improvements has
prevented this being done. X.

When April Comes

When April Comes
When April comes, melodious frogs
Resume their concerts on the logs;
The fisher tries a cunning bout
Of skill against the dappled trout,
And labors hard to draw him out;
The bulebirds trill their tumty -tums
When April comes.
When April comes, the budding trees,
Bright springs diviuest prophecies,
Flirt coyly with the Grant breeze;
All nature smiles, but man must sneeze;
The pores of all his being fill
With dubious draughts of sarsaparill;
Take quinine till his mazard huns
When April comes.
When April comes, the violets blow,
Emblanketed beneath the snow;
The tramp comes out, and exc the crow;
The COW rejects the arid cud,
And dreams of grass beneath the mud;
Z The bear leaves sucking of his thumbs,
When April comes.
When April comes, with soaking feet
The maidens greet the crocus sweet,
The housemaid joys, the peeler's beat
The pulses Of the wakened spring
Are felt and heard in everything;
Within her depths of dewy eyes
The loveliest laughter turks and lies
And she lies, too; for they, by gosh,
Who, save with ulster and golosh,
Confront the mud, the wind, the slosh,
Are meet to be q maniac's chums
When April comes.

M@-T The town of st. Cloud, Minnesota, was
struck by a terrible cyclone on Wednesday after

lieved that more than fifty people were killed
their bodies being terribly mangled-and upwards
of hundred were injured, some of them fatally.
Several smaller towns near St. Cloud also suffered
by the cyclone, the like of which had never been

Sunnybrook, 10th District.--Mr. John
Guthrie, of this vicinity, and Miss Martha Tay-
lor, of Baltimore, were married on Wednesday
last at the residence of the brides parents. They
will locate at the old family homestead, on My
Lady's Manor, where he is extensively engaged in
farming.
William Jones, eldest son of Mr.. Geo. W. Jones,
of this place, and Miss Maggie Bonnerman, were
also married on 18th inst The groom, it is said,
will engage in farming.
William Shelley, son of Joshua Shelley, of My
Lady's Manor, while tusseling with ayoung horse
at Snyder's shops, dislocated his shoulder. Drs.
Price and Bagey were summoned, but those pres
cnt had reduced the dslocation before the arrival
Of the physicians. Only short time ago the
same lad suffered disocation of the other shoul-
der joint, and now the wonder is what he will do
next.
I notice that many farmers have erected wind
mills and tits said they are of great service in
saving wood, pumping water, cutting and grind
ing feed, &c.
The new iron bridge over the Little Gunpow-
der, at Joshua Green's, is about completed. 1t is
very low, lower I think to the water than the old
one, which was carried away by the food of last
August. Mr.. Benjamin Howard is now engaged
in moving the wreck of the old bridge from the
bed of the stream, about 200 yards from where it
stood, and it might be well for him to keep his
derrick and other appliances on the spot awhile,
for it will only require good heavy rain TO give
him a job of fishing the new one out of the mud.
Mr.. Barton, who has rented tho farm of MI.
Thomas Shields, is an energetic, wide-awake
farmer, and we regard him as quite an acquisition
to this neighborhood.
Our country is now we'll supplied with water.
You can find springs anywhere-on the top of a

Fullerton, 18th District The last few days

Fullerton, 18th District The last few days
of fine weather have produced quite change in
the appearance of the country. Grass is spring
ing up and will soon be of sufficient length to af
ford good pasturage; buds are swelling and even
some apple trees are putting forth leaves. Gar
dening is being carried on with great energy,
everybody being busy putting in beets, parsnips,
corn and other vegetables.
Fishing for mulets seems to be the nocturnal
occupation of a great many people in the neigh
borhood, and the streams seem to be the haunt of
scores of Jack o-lanterns the lights fit up and
down them. The fish are very palatable while the
water is cold, but when it commences to get warm
the flesh of the fish becomes soft and is unfit for
use.
Mr.. Charles Van Cleaf and wife have moved to
Faston, where Mr.. Van Cleaf intends to pursue
the occupation of painter, and will go into the
business with his father-in-law, Mr.. Townsey.-
They will be greatly missed in the eighborhood,
especially by the debating society, Of which they
were valuable members.
The pea-pickers have contracted the Labor
Union fever and have decided to strike for 80 cts.
per bushel an advance of 10 cts. over the former
price. If the season is favorable and the pea crop
turns out WE'LL the cost of picking will exceed the
price, as almost every one in this section of the
county has planted from one to forty bushels.
The debating society met at Mr.. George Coun-
cilman's, Wednesday evening, and discussed the
question, (Which does most for his country's well
fare, the warrior or statesman 2" with much ami
nation. The judges decided g to q in favor of
the affirmative, or warrior. The president read a
selection from Longfellow, 'The Beeaguered City,"
and was loudly applauded. Vocal aud instru-
mental music helped to make up a very pleasing
entertainment. NIMPoRT.
