G. & o. Canal stIIILives.

The trustees forthe bond holders of
1874 of the c. & O. Canal seem 10 be in
earnest in their intention to repair the
waterway To this end there have been
deposited at the Farmers and Merchants
National Bank, on South street. upwards
Of 5000. 900 TO pay the bondholders of
1878 in full, with sccrued interest This
was required Of the trustees by order OF
the court before the surrender ofthe cor
pus Of the canal TO the trustees. The
whole issue OF the repair bonds Of 1878
was $500, 900 Under the order of the
court this was required to be settled be
fore the creditors OF 1884 could come in
for claim In the canal. OF these bonds
upward OF $500, 900 were purchased and
controlled by the persons interested in
the repair OF the canal, who were under
stood to be identified with the b. g. o.
Railroad Company. In the provision
made for the settlement of this indebted
ness yesterday this amount was not con-
sidered, but only the remainder, about
$i9s, 600, with accrued interest, was to be
paid. The bank commenced the payment
OF this amount and the settlement OF
considerable portion Of it was affected.
The deposiiing of such large sum for
this purpose would show that the inten-
tion of the trustees for the creditors of
1874 is to carry out the orders of the
court in giving them possession. Gen.
Bradley II. Johnson, who represents these
trustees; was in Hagerstown on Monday
attending to some legal matters connec-
ted with the transfer AS soon as these
are finally settled the work ofrepair will
be begun. II is stated that by May /.
the time specified by the court for the
completion of the repairs, the canal will
be in full operation.

DRAWING or THE JURY.
Several minutes were taken up by Ma

in preparing the ballots for the drawing

Miller named Samuel Brooke as foreman.

Judge Miller, in his charge to the
Grand Jury, spoke in very forcible
terms about the enormity of the crime
His remarks in substance were After
a weeks adjournment of the regular
October term of Court, most horrible
crime was committed in he first district
of this county The court was asked to
reconvene the recently discharged grand
jury, TO investigate the affair. After
carefully examining the law on the sub
ject,l found there was no authority to re-
call discharged jury, but the Court had
power to call an extra session o. court if
in its judgment it was found necessary;
therefore an extra session has been call
ed to-day A colored man has been ar
rested charged with an atrocious crime
and you can now retire to the grand
jury room and examine the witnesses,
who are all in court"
AN INDICTMENT FOUND.
The Grand Jury Immediately retired
to their room, and after an absence of
several minutes, found q presentment
against the accused, and after being out
about 35 minutes returned with true
bill against Forbes. After thanking the
jury for their prompt action in the mat
ter, they were temporarily discharged,
subject to call between now and the
April term. This is a new practice in
our court, but we think wise one, as 1t
does away with much trouble in case
of another extra session of the court.

sented by E. j. Waring, counsel for

til the prisoner was brought here and ar
raigned Mr.. Waring, who is an intelli-

speech on behalf of his client, and cited
several decisions by the Court of Appeals
and also the opinion Of Attorney Gen

be removed without the a'raignment OF

is removed.
