Kingsville, 11th District.-A large force of
men and carts have been engaged the past two
weeks cutting down and grading the several hills
on the Baltimore and Jerusalem turnpike near
here. The work is under the management of Mr..
Joseph Snyder. The company expect to have the
turnpike finished as far as this place about fall.-
They have only about II miles more to grade and
stone. Our county roads also need some attention
over here. They are in very bad condition. A
better road system and less Justices of the Peace
would be more acceptable to us just now, as this
is no place for litigation.

Terrible Accident on a r. R. Trestle.-
Mr.. Henry Praeger, respected citizen of Balti-
more, met his death in very tragic manner on
Sunday afternoon last. In company with his
daughter, who is II years of age, he went for
walk out the Western Maryland railroad. On
their return home they attempted to cross the
high trestle work, about half mile north of Full
ton Station, and had gone but short distance
when train suddenly came upon them. They
tried to save themselves by lying down on the
cross-ties, outside of the rails, and the engine
passed them safely, but the step of passenger
coach struck Mr.. Praeger and hurled him down
IA the rocks, distance of so feet. The child,
seeing her father fall, attempted to rise and the
wheels passed over her right foot, crushing it in
terrible manner. The unfortunate man was ter
ribly mangled by the fall and lived only short
time. They we're picked up and taken to Union
Station and from thence to their home, on west
Baltimore street. Prof. Smith amputated the
child's foot on Monday. A coroner's jury exoner-
ated the Railroad Company from all blame, as
signs were posted conspicuously at each end OF
the bridge, warning people that it was dangerous
to cross. Mr.. Praeger was 40 years of age and
kept notion store on west Baltimore street.

Sunnybrook, 10th District.-Mr. William
Eckart one of the good farmers of this section,
has field of wheat which is attracting a great
deal of attention Only few years ago this field
was literally covered with stones and sassafras
bushes, and was generally regarded as a wild
waste-an eye sore-but under his good manage
ment the stones, sassafras and washouts have all
disappeared, and upon its bosom rests as pretty
a field of growing wheat as this neighborhood
con produce.
On Tuesday last Willie Fishpaw, son of Mr..
Elijah Fishpaw, while engaged cutting feed, got

while passing through Ridgely's mill woods on

built stone house and barn, and now he was
studying what to do with the balance of the
stones. FLINT.

Sweet Air, 10th District.-A sense of jus
tice has always been marked characteristic of
your estimable journal, and with your permission
take this opportunity to express to you the full
appreciation of large number of admirers who
feel grateful that Baltimore county possesses
paper that dares to do right With desire to see
fair play, I beg leave to unfold and ''nip in the
bud," through your columns, well-laid scheme
of underhand work that should be speedily frown-
ed down by all who are posted as to the plot
There has been put in circulation petition set
ting forth that the postolice at this place was
about to be removed, to the inconvenience of its
patrons, and urging the signatures of property
owners in support of new applicant, favoring the
removal oil the office, &C., to the detriment of the
present encumbent, whose qualifications and in
tegrity cannot be doubted and who was kept en-
tirely in the dark as to the movement. For over
twenty years the late E. A. Weakey held the Office
of postmaster, discharging its duties with salts
faction to the Department, and was succeeded by
his son, j. D. Weakley, the present incumbent,
who so far has given entire satisfaction to the
Government and the community, and who, with
out the remotest intention of resgning the posi-
ton or of changing the location, felt at liberty to
appoint an assistant to take charge, should other
business call him away. These are the facts
Would it not have been more honorable for the
new aspirant to have proceeded in the accustomed
manner, without resorting to pretext or counsel
of second party with an "aXe to grind" To say
the least, the signers of the petition, who now
understand the matter, should erase their names.
