Report Of the Grand Jury.

To the Honorable Judges of tie CiTcnit Court
for Montgomery county.
We, the Grand Jurors for the March
Term Of said Court, respectfully report;
We have examined one hundred and three
witnesses, and have found forty two pre-
sentiments and true bills, some Of them Tor
offenses Of a very ,erions nature, though the
majority are AZ usual for violations OF the
local option law.
A committee was appointed TO visit and in
spect the Jail and another TO perform the same
duty at the aims house. The first commit
tee report that the premises both in and
around the Jail give evidence of faithful dis
charge Of duty as 10 cleanliness. 30 import.
ant for the health Of the inmates. The jail
floors, both above and below, are reported
as being badly worn and in great need Of
repair, but the Commissioners Inform US
that the repairs will be made as soon az the
weather will Justify the use Of the cement
necessary for the work. Eleven inmates
are reported, all colored, and all males.
| Three OF the inmates are reported insane,
| The States Attorney informs US that owing
10 the crowded condition Of such institutions
| Ia this State a. receive this class OF patients
| his efforts 10 find more suitable quarters for
these men have 30 far failed. The jury can
only recommend that he renew his efforts
| 10 this direction.
The committee visiting the aims house
believe that the institution will bear favor
able comparison with others OF like charac'
ter in the State. The inmates told US they
were we'll fed and had nothing TO complain
Of. We found the building heated by steam
and each Of the floors supplied with water
by windmill. The rooms and halls were
10 good condition, and were at that time be-
ing treated to a coat Of whitewash. The
farm Is in an excellent state OF cultivation
Wheat is looking we'll, pasture land 10 good
sod, field tor corn already broken, and fence
rows clean. The stock is in fine condition and
there is provender sufficient for the winter
We found 80 inmates--15 white males AND
5 white females, 8 colored males and col
ored females, including one child born o.
the institution.
We believe that tight drawer or desE
should be provided where the papers OF Thu

We have diligently inquired into all mat

other matter Of sufficient importance W jns

Strange Marriage.

On the Goth instant, a strange and solemn
wedding ceremony was witnessed in Balti
more, of which the folowin g are the par
ticulars
At the side of the cofflned remains of her
mother, and TO comply as far as possible
with her unfulfilled wishes, Miss Matilda
Van Ness Louey was this afternoon mar
ried to Lieut.. George Arthur Zenn, Corps
of Engineers, U. S. A.
Miss Louey is one Of the best know n
ladies in society, her father being Col. Henry
D. Louey of the Veteran Corps of the Fifth
Maryland Regiment, which made such fine
exhibit at the Inauguration. Her engage
ment to Lieut., Zsnn was very gratifying to
her family, and the wedding was to take
place April TO- Invitations had been en-
graved when Mrs. Louey became ill, about
two weeks ago. Her condition rapidly be-
came serious, and her chief desire now was
to see her only daughter happily married
before she died. To this the doctor OBJ.
jected, deeming it unadvisable to allow his
patient to be excited by the performance Of
the ceremony.
Mrs. Louey sank rapidly, aud on Friday
died, being unable to fulfill her wishes as
she had expressed them Col. Louey con.
cluded to do the best he could, and the
bride and groom concurring, the wedding
was performed today in the presence of the
dead. the bride and groom standing so that
their eyes were looking on the uncovered
face.
| Rev. DIR. EccIeston, who performed the
marriage ceremony, preceded the bridal par
ty and the coffin 10 The church, where he
also recited the prayers for the dead.
Lieut.. Zenn, who is stationed at Fort
Monroe, will leave for that place in q lev
days with his sorrowlng bride, whose wed

President sylvester, of the MARYLAND Ag.

President Sylvester, of the Maryland Ag-
ricultural College, delivered at the Sandy
Spring Lyceum on Thursday evening of
last week an excellent lecture entitled
"Quixotism versus Conformity to Type"
The Ashton and Gainesville electric rail-
road has been incorporated with Alban G.
Thomas as president, DR.. Hardy as vice
president, Philip T. Stabler, secretary, and
Charles G. Porter, treasurer. The proposed
line is to start at the terminus of the Ashton,
Colesville and Washington road, about one
half mile east of Sandy Spring village, and
extend about five miles to GAINESVILLE, How.
ard county, where it will be met by another
electric road from Baltimore. The incor-
porators named have apparently no doubt
that that community will enjoy the con.
venience Of quick transit to both Washing
ton and Baltimore in the near future, as
they state that the necessary funds are guar
anteed by responsible parties.

Tax Convention and Home Rule.

Mr., Editor A learned citizen of Ba ii.
more, writing to the Sun, starts Out with
the worthy intention of reviewing the work
Of the Tax convention, but he failed TO state
what conclusion had been reached by the
! convention. IL is safe to conclude that no
satisfactory system has been devised for the
raising OF revenue for the government Pt
the State, cities and counties, in which
every person holding property in the State
shall contribute his proportion of public
taxes for the support Of the government
thereof, according to his worth in rea and
personal property"
repeat, Mr.. Il iitor, in this communica
ton, that there is nothing in that terrible
bugbear in the Constitution of the State,
which has Just been quoted, that stands in
the way of Home Rule or equal or Just tax
alton, unless, indeed, it be taxation by polls.
If the meaning Of the article were not plain /,
| would still have implicit faith in its in
tent; for in the convention that framed our
constitution there was one from our county
who refused q free ride to Annapolis from
the railroad, and that man would never
have allowed nything to go into the con
sttution of his beloved State that was not
Just 10 all OF its citizens. Its meaning is
that every one in the same td,cd6te dtStrtct
| should be taxed equally according to his &c.
tual worth. There is nothing in that article
against home rule, for we have 1t now. For
instance does not the citizen OF Rockville
have 10 pay a higher rate OF taxation thln

several of the counties taxed nc a higher
rate than our Own2 repeat, and | Insist
