The BRIDGE AT POINT OF RoCKs.-Two
deeds were flied for record yesterday in the
County Clerks Office at Frederick. Md, one
from Richard and Thomas J. Graham, of
Cumberland, to Mr.. Joseph D. Baker, presi'
dent of the Citizens National Bank, and
the other from Frederick ]. Nelson, com.
missioner appointed by the court, to the
same party. These deeds convey to MIR.
Baker all the remaining interest in the ferry
and piers, and all the franchises of the Po-
tomac Bridge Company at Point of Rocks,
and finally settle all the rights and troubles
in regard to this bridge, which have long
been involved ia litigation. It is under
stood that steps will now be taken at once
to secure charters from the Legislatures of
Maryland and Virginia for the organization
of new company, and the construction
of 8 bridge will probably be begun in the
near future.

THE CONVENTION held in Washington las

THE CONVENTION held in Washington last
Tuesday to elect delegates to the next ma
tional republican convention was go Gisor
DERBY that not only the republican newspa'
pers of that city, but many of those OF 'ne
NORTH, profess to be shocked and scanaa''zeo
at the proceedings, and some OF the former
even 90 so far as to point to them as suth
cient reason for the existing deprivation OF
the peopie of that city of the privilege OF
suffrage. All this shows that the papers re
ferred to are either not sincere, have
short memories, or else are i'll in'
formed of the recent history of their
own country, for of all the republican con-
ventions that have been held, where the COL
ored element constitutes the majority of the
party, as it does in Washington, there have
been few that were not characterized by
similar, if not even more disordery be-
havior Washington and Northern repuo-
lican newspapers should send correspon'
dents to the South to report the proceed
inrs of the heated republican conventions
that are held in this section of the country,
if they don't want to be surprised at what
goes Oh in similar conventions at the ma
tonal capital.
