/ Great Shot.

In ;he time of the second empire
there had been at Compiegne great
and elegant hunting party, with IA
tremendous massacre of hares and
pheasanls and other game. Standing
10 chosen spots the emperor and his
followers had the game driven up be-
fore them and bad nothing to do but
shoot it down. These high-born hunt
eg, had but to stoop to pick up the
game that they shot; but they did not
even do as much as that, Their val
els. dressed in picturesque costumes,
went about picking up their game for
them. A. the hunters returned after
the dava sport it was noticed that
Prosper Merimee. who was one of the
party was the only one whose servant
was not laden with game. He was
left completely in the lurch, as it were,
without having taken as much as a
sparrow. We'll, wellI' his literary
fellows exclaimed "how did they man
aye to get away from you?' When
game is so plenty as that said Meri-
NEE grayeIy the merit of marks
man lies in hitting nothing. So fired

II don't see him, replied the agent,
as he looked into the wagon.
He 'un's in the coffin thar! I'm

They went to the Office and arranged
matters. and the coffin was taken from
the wagon and placed on truck
Then the woman returned to the
wagon and said to the oldest boy:
Now YOU. Reube, you drive slow
and don't worry them nevis, and the
rest of YOU all behave yourselves
Come down fur me Wednesday and

We yoteu her full of business, -
but rather hard-hearted, but we had to
change our mind about that. She
suddenly disappeared, and as we
walked along to the cotton bales piled
high on the platform we heard Il

OF lamentalou cried out:
"Oh, jim old man, it's the Lords

A Beautiful Country.

US. Commissioner Rogers, of Balti-
more, whose wife is taking summer
outing at Mr.. J. C. Hindman's of Ris-
ing Sun, comes up on Saturday even
ings for Whit of Cecil air, pronounces
this and adjacent neighborhoods the
most beautiful and picturesque country
he has ever beheld.
In one of his drives the great Rich
ards Oak which stands in the middle
of the road between Rising Sun and
Porter's Bridge, was passed under. Its
immense proportions attracted Mr..
Rogers attention and he ahghted from
the buggy TO have better view of the
monster. The spread of its boughs the
shortest way reach los feeG. and the
girth of the trunk three feet from the
ground measure "a feet. Mr.. Rogers has
travelled extensively in this country and
Europe. In this Mr.. Rogers is correct.
There is no more beautiful and pictur.
esque landscapes than can be witnessed

direction from Rising Sun as centre
The country presents a succession Of
well cultivated farms covering rolling
hills and valleys on every hand, an
ever changing view to delights the eye
of the lover of fine scenery.

The disclosures in the wrecking of
the Key Stone bank ought to satisfy
every one that our banking system
which is somewhat Landed is entirely
unsafe. The Key Stone bank was
bankrupted for weeks and months
before its condition became known,
and in that period Mr.. Bardsley, the
dishonest treasurer of the City of
Philadelphia, placed in it hundreds
of thousands of dollars belonging to
the city OF Philadelphia andN to the
state of Pennsylvania which were
lost. On the oath of January last,
one of the Oldest and most experienc.
ed bank examiner looked into the
condition of the bank and showed it
to be bankrupt; but in making that
statement to the comptroller of the
currency it is now discovered that
this bank examiner left out an item
of Indebtedness of $544,S51. If this
was an error or mistake upon the
part of the examiner it was totally
inexcusable. If it was corruptly done
it is still strong evidence that there
is something wrong in the system
under which such mistake or corrupt
report could shield this bank and
allow it to continue in existence
when totally bankrupt.
There ought to be but one bank of
issue in this country, and that the
Treasury of the United States. That
institution has handled thousands of
millions of dollars IN the last few
years more money in fact than was
ever handled by any other institution
in the world in the same period of
time. In all its trasfers from one
chief to another every dollar has been
accounted for not even a penny has
been lost. AS the government makes
the money which these National
Banks issue and get the strength
which they have it can easily issue
this money itself and thus save the
intermediary expense and at the
same time save the trusting depositor
from placing his money in bank
endorsed to some extent by the
Government.

The Deadly Cherry Tree.

Richard Abrams, the fifteen year
old son OF VIM. H. Abrams. of North
East, fell from a cherry tree, about
noon on Friday last, and received
injuries from which he died in about
an hour. He had been spending a
few days at his graudmother's. Mrs.
Robert White, near Bethel Chapel.
On Friday morning he went up the
tree to pick some cherries to take
home with him. He fell about thirty
feet. DIR. Housekeeper was sum
moned. but the unfortunate youth
was beyond human aid. No bones
were broken. The doctor thinks be
struck on his feet, as his injuries
were internal.

last week and injured one of her

Genaemen:-The fact thatth wife and
daughter of the railroad agent at Rising
Sun, Nd, are afflicted with scarlet fever,
although not in the malignant form, and
further, that the r. r. Co. as a matter of
precaution more than matter of necessity,
has removed the telegraph and ticket Office
into the freight room at this point, has
given rise TO a report that scarlet fever is an
epidemic here and that it Is unsafe to come
TO the town. Some local newspapers in this
and adjoining counties have circulated a
rumor that this condition Of things exists.
| hope that you will circulate true state
ment Of the case in your paper this week,
informing the public that but two cases
exist here, and they no doubt were con-
tracted elsewhere, so that the business and
intercourse of the town may suffer no more
than they have. 1 feel certain that the pre-
cautionary measures adopted have been mis-
construed and undue alarm has been caused !,
while no one questions the propriety of
using great care. Yours &c.,
H. H. HAINEs.
THE above communication embraces all
the facts in the case, and if there has been
any scare, it was altogether without cause.
Mrs. Lewis and her daughter, who are re-
covering, contracted the disease either in
Oxford or neighboring town further up the
road, where precautions were not taken to
prevent contact as they have been here.
There have been no fears entertained here of
the disease spreading, owing to the complete
quarantine established by the railroad COM
pany as soon as the disease was developed.
There is absolutely no danger, nor has
there been, of the disease spreading, and
persons need have no fear whatever of com
ing TO town..
