few days before while she and her hus-
band was tramping from Washington to
Annapolis, and that TO get rid of it she
left it at the farmers house door The
infant was brought here to-day by Mrs.

Editor Of the EUening CdpitIl:
STIR beg to bring the following under
your notice in hopes you win kindly give

good citizens of Annapolis and public in
general may read and understand how
some visitors are treated in visiting their
historical Capitol. The following are the
plain and simple facts; Monday the 10th

time, partly on business and partly to see
the city, had often read and heard of.
Next day, (Tue-day,) while passing st.
Marys r. c. Church, between 10 and -
o'clock, my curiosity prompted me to call
in and see it. The main or front door ap-
peared to be locked so tried the side gate
which was open and entered the grounds,
and there was little chapel there with its
doors wide open. took it for gran ed that
it was for public devotion. / merely look
ed in and in an humble and respectful
manner viewed the grounds around and
returned out. On my way back | met
with one Of the brothers. had a talk with
him, and then proceeded. When near
the main gate was accused by work
ing man or boy rather, a laborer appar-
emily he expressed some rough language,
Ireturned the compliment. but kept walk
ing on. When reached the gate, two
more workers, and what / found after
wards deputy policeman Tor whatever
you may call him. They ordered me to
walk on or they would make me told
them was doing so, but did not think
make was necessary. In about ten min
utes after l was followed, arrested and
tried as trespasser. Four swore Twas
trespassing, and gave me thirty days in
jail, where am now for the present.
need say no more, but hope the good citi-
zens of Annapolis may judge my case
impartially.

failures have occurred in the past few
weeks and several large banking firms
have had tight squeeze Philadelphia

there has been no great disturbance in
business circles. The banks are all
sound as a dollar, and trade is gener-

substantial institutions in the coun-
try, with plenty of money to loan on
good securities Our business men are
pursuing the even tenor of their way,
not growing rich but living comfortably
and putting by something for "a rainy
day. Many new houses have been
built and are occupied by prompt pay
ing tenants and number of old and
somewhat dilapidated houses have been
thoroughly repaired and made good as

is rather fiattering, and our city aud
county have no reason to complain Of
hard times.

The best meical writers claim that the
successful remedy for nasal catarrh must
be non irritating, easy of application, and
one that will reach all the remote sores
and liberated surfaces. The history of
the efforts to treat catarrh during the
past, obliges us to admit that only one
remedy has met these conditions, and
that is Ely S Cream Balm. This pleasant
remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing
else has ever oone and both physicians
