has already commenced, but dredging
will not be tolerated until the 18th of Oc-
tober. The sale Of the Gov. Hamilton
will leave the force with two steamers,
the Gov. Thomas and Gov NcLane. Two
sailing vessels, which will be ready by
the opening OF the dredging season, will
be added to the feet, which can be de-
pended on for doing efficient police duty
during the winter.
The two steamers have been beautifully
painted, rejecting credit on the members
of the crew, who did most of the work
themselves. The Gov. McLane was paint
ed at Salisbury and the Gov Thomas in
St. Georges creek. Both steamers look
as bright as new dollar. The unfortu
nate accident that happened to the Nc
Lane in sinking a schooner that attempted
to cross her bow was very much regretted
by Capt. Turner, who was entirely blame
less In the matter The Thomas is ex-
pected TO show her smiling face in Anna
polls the latter part of the week.
Capt Loker is proud of his steamer,
and he has watched the progress of the
work on her with jealous eye. Ii the
sister steamer, Gov. McLane, should look
more handsome in her suit of paint he
shall be very much disappointed. In the
twilight, when the mosquitoes are not too
greedy, he sits on deck and moralizes
over portion of his bachelor life spent

A gentleman walked up to a country

night and asked for tomatoes. The afore-
said countrymsn proceeded to put them

objected. say ing he did not want green
tomatoes. The retailer replied that they
were not green tomatoes-they were ripe
ones. but the purchaser insisted they were
green, when the countryman explained to
his customer that they were new varie-
~ of tomatoes called thu Golden Sum-
that he procured the seed from the patent
Office at Washington, and that if the gen
tleman would eat them once be would
have no other, and finally prevailed upon
his customer to take them. The gentle
man informs US they are the best toma-
toes he ever eat. They are large. round
and smooth, the color of lemon. The

A Woman's Discovery.

Another wonderful discovery has been
made and that too by lady in this coun-
try. Disease fastened its clutches upon
her and for seven years she withstood its
severest tests, but her vital organs were
undermined and death seemed Imminent.
For three months she coughed necessarily
and could not sleep. She bought of us a
bottle of DR.. Kings New Discovery for
CONSUMPTION and was so much relieved
on taking the first dose that she slept all
night and with one bottle has been mira
culously cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther
Lutz." Thus writes w G. Hamrick &

Annapolis VS.. Alexandra.

The following from an Alexandria pa
per IS what we have been contendIng that
our City Council should do for Annapolis:
a few months ago several gentlemen
from Eastern Maryland came to this city
for the purpose of locating a canning es
adjustment here. After selecting site
suitable for their purpose they Informed
the citizens committee, consisting Of
Messrs. 4. +. Downham. NJ. b. Harlow,
Park Agnew, Chas. King, ID. w Whit
ing and F. A. Reed, that If the citizens
would contribute one years house rent,
amounting to $500, they would begin
operations here and would agree 10 work
the factory eight months In the year and
TO employ at no time less than fifty hands.
This proposition the committee accepted.
and the promised money was raised
through the diligence of the committee.
The cannery was consequently started
and has been in operation several months.
A few days ago members of tie commit
tee visited the institution and found that
over two hundred hands are employed
there daily and that over So 900 are tx
pended weekly IN labor and other ncccs.
sary expenses. This money falls int the
hands of the poor people and is God
send TO them. These results are gratifying
to the merchants here, who are willing to
continue offering inducements for maou
facturers to settle here"
This is just what Is wanted in our city,
and can be secured with little effort on
the part of our citizens. Our farmers are
allowing their fruits and vegetables to
rot on their farms. for the reason that it
don't pay them to gather and ship their
goods TO the cities; besides they say they
never get back their empties, and this,
with the cost of shipment and commits
sions, generally brings them in debt
Now, IL large canning house was estab-
lished here II would not only benefit the
city In business way, but would be a
great benefit to the county-besides, An
napolis would derive a double benefit
from such an establishment. The farmers
around would come here and dispose OF
their fruits and vegetables for cash, make
ther purchases from our merchants and
20 about their business. We have al the
facilities for such an establishment and
there is no reason in the world for our
not having it-except our own indiffer-
ence Let us talk 1t up and talk 1t up.

Rev. Rob.., II. Williams on calami,ies

In his sermon last night on Gallant
ties, the Rev. Robt. III. Williams, pastor
of the Presbyterian Church, referred to
the Baltimore contlagration as follows =
At early morn of last Sabbath when
quietness was reigning around, the dread
full cry Of fire fire was heard in Balti.
more, calling its people to a scene of ex-
citement and terror.
And all through the most of that day
the fire ragged and stately buildings and
humble homes went down before its rapid
march.
Property to vast amounts was con-
sumed in a little time. But what was
worse was the destruction of life.
Nine brave men, who had veHtured to
obtain place where their services would
be most effective, were entombed by a
falling wall.
Then shudder ran through the other
firemen aud the crowd that were Look
ing on.
Then the supreme thought, rising
above every other, was the rescue OF these
men, and with tears and great anguish of
heart they worked at the spot where their
comrades fell. Two were rescued before
life was extinct, and carried suffering
from dreadful wounds aud bruises to the
hospital.
Seven others were found but not antil
life had ceased Their bodies were car
ried TO burial by vast concourse OF peo-
pie and the whole city deeply sympathized
with their sorrowiug families.
Wishes aud tears were not the only
proofs of their sympathy for large sum
by voluntary contributions has already
been raised for them.
Such courage as the firemen OF Balti-
more showed in contending with the fire
deserves commentator, and such sub.
stantial sympathy of the people of Balti-
more have shown, so prompt, SO general,
so liberal, deserves 70 be related, and
must inspire every fireman in the service
of that city, as he meets the dangers be-
fore him, with the thought that he will
be remembered If he should fall at his
post, and that those dear to him will not
be left TO suffer because of the loss OF his
earnings.
Every day the papers bring US accounts
of calamiiies, disasters, and dreadful acci-
dents. They bid US pause and consider the
ruin which has come upon others and
which may suddenly fall upon us.
