LEoNARDTowN, March 81, 1892.

Il
Messrs. Editors II don't think that there
Ia much sickness in the county at this time
! believe that the grip has nearly disap'
peared and everything Is looking brighter
than it did in February when nearly every
one you came in contact with or heard
from was either suffering from the grip or
some other disease.
The SGR of March Goth says: "The
Vice President laid before the Senate We'd
nesday lengthy petition from ex-Repre.
sentative Benjamin G. Harris, of ST. Mary's
county, Nd, on behalf of himself and
other citizens of Maryland, asking Con.
gress 70 secure compensation for the slaves
taken by the General Government or eman-
cipated by State Convention at the in
stance Of the General Government. Mr..
Harris, in this petition. makes a strong
legal argument in favor of the payment
by the Government for all the slaves eman-
cipated in Maryland"
know that Mr.. Harris is right, and !
think il is time our Representatives in
Congress should take hold of the subject
in earnest and make the fight Cor their
constituents, many of whom were robbed
of their all and left TO exc out a scanty liv-
ing as best they might The slaves GER
tainly belonged to their owners, bought
and paid for as any other property, and
the Government could not honestly OF
Justly take them without compensation
don't believe that there is an honest OF
fair minded man in the State, white OF
black, that would not be willing for the
government TO pay the people for the
/ slaves that it so outrageously- robbed them
of.
Remember mel Those two words call

leaves of your album stained with the fin.
ger of time, and ponder upon the names
enrolled thereon. Each says, remember

tombs and read the inscriptions TO the mem

Der mew Walk in the hour of evening
twilight-anid the scenes Of your early
rambles, the well known paths, the over
spreading trees will recall the dreams o.
early pleasures and the recollection o.
youthful companions. They too, say, "re
member me-" And that is all that is lef'
of all our earthly friends. Separated by
fortune or called away by death, and in
time we find ourselves left alone with the
recollection of what they were. Some
were our benefactors. and won us by theil
favors; others were kind, amiable and af
fectionate, and for this we esteemed them
1t was thus little while and then tn,
changes came and broke up our delightful
intercourse. II ceased; yet still we do al
we can TO discharge our sacred and honor
able debt--We remember them.

DEEPLY IMBEDDED.
Harper's Ferry Sentinel

harper refry Sehtlhela
A large log from the farm Of VIM.
Shifer's, near Boonsboro, was being
sawed when grapeshotwas encounter
ed deeply imbedded in the log, but the
saw only struck the edge Of it, and did
no further damage than doubling it.
Had the saw struck it full, serious re-
suits might have followed. This shot
doubtless penetrated the tree when the
fight occurred in that locality in July,
1868, immediately after the battle of
Gettysburg. when Kilpatrick's and
Sheridan's cavalry were fighting a
heavy skirnish line thrown out by
general Lee to protect and cover the
crossing Of his army at Wiiliamsport
back into Virginia.

A bin in equity was fled Saturday,
st Philadelphia, asking that a receiver
be appointed for the Order Of Fraternal
Guardians. The compliments in the
bin are members and certificate hold
ers Of the order. The charter, the
claimants continue, sets ont that the
order is formed for the maintenance Of
a society for beneficial and protective
purposes, but that the corporation has
exceeded its corporate rights and has
established series Of certificates to be
issued to the members and to be paid
at maturity. It is charged that this is
scheme to hand over a sum Of money
to few Of the members who first join
the order, at the loss of those who
come in later.
An official report Of the order, the
bill continues, IS made in the Frater-
nal Guardians, paper published this
month by the order. This report shows
that there are 8,612 benefit certificates
in force, representing contract liabili-
ty of over 1000, 900, while the assets
amount to only $631, 65O.97, leaving a
deficiency of not quite $3,500,000 to
be made up by the assessments from
the members; that each official assess
ment levied brings in a return Of over
SIG, 900 and that by this report it ap-
pears that the order is insolvent and
unable to pay its obligations. In ad-
dition to these facts 1t is alleged that
large number Of benefit certificates
viii mature next June and will con.
tinue to mature thereafter; that two
assessments, payable on the 3Oth in
slant, have recently been levied by the
supreme officers, and that District At
torney Graham, on behalf of the Com
monwealth, is about to institute quo
warranto proceedings to have the or
der's charter declared void.
Judge Arnold granted preliminary
injunction in the case, with security
at 81 900.

KILLED WITH A KISS.
Huntington Times:

Huntington Times:
The death of two-year-old child at
the foot of Thirteenth street few
days ago demonstrates, how disease of
a dread character may be communica-
ted by the act Of kissing. Mr.. and
Mrs. Acres live in small boat at that
point and while down the river near
yanceburg, they were visited by a
woman who caressed the baby and
kissed it several times. Shortly after
this the young one was taken sick, an
eruption appeared upon its body and
all efforts to-stop the progress of the
disease proved futile, and the unfortu-
nate child died as above stated.
