Fishing.

The down run" of herring has COM
menced, indicating that the season for
catching them is about over, and with
in another week all the large fisheries
will have cut out, some of them having
already done so. Shad gilers will con-
tinue two or three weeks yet. The
season has been the most profitable one
for several years, to those concerned in
it. More than the usual number of
shad have been caught and the price
has kept UP. Plenty of herring have
been caught-all required they
have not been sacrificed in price, as
in former years, as preparations were
made for packing them on a large
scale, and perhaps never before were
there as many barrels of herring here
as are now stored at the packing
houses along the river. Prices yes
terday ruled about as follows: Herring

On Tuesday night James Taylor, the
negro who brntally assaulted the ten.year-
old daughter of NJ. jim Silcox, of Ken
nedyviile, was taken from the Chestertown
Jail and hanged 10 a small tree, not fifty
yards distant from the jail Before the
hanging representative Of the commits
sions of Chestertown appeared before the
crowd which had assembled and had been
guarding the Jail all day, and requested
them not to hang the prisoner in the town.
The door of the Jail was broken with a
sledge. the prisoner led out by rope about
his neck and hung. When asked by one OF
the jailors if he knew what was going on
outside, Tay lor said he did; that they were
going to kill him, and that he was innocent.
The leaders in The lynchlng in defense Of
their act stated that their object in resolv-
ing to do this thing was for the bettermeni
of the county, the protection Of wives,
mothers and children, and for the protection
of poor rnined girl from the eyes OF hun
dreds in courthouse and the questions of
paid attorney. The men composing this

and sound judgment.
The little girl who was assaulted has
since died.
That the Sheriff g attempted protection
of the prisoner was q mere sham is evident,
from the fact that he took the prisoner on
board tug and had him down the river the
night previous to the lyuching, and knew
he would be lynched when brought back.
Had he wished to prevent the lynching he
would have taken him to Baltimore.
The frequent lynchings which are COM
mitted and participated in by some of the
moat worthy citises, is largely the result of
the travesty of justice, yexatious delays and
technicalities permitted 10 be practiced by
attorneys TO secure fees, which is bringing
the courts into contempt in the eyes of the
public. An enlightened public opinion will
force radical reform in our moss grown
system of Jurisprudence, ip the future.
