Tho Fertilizer Case.

The case of Sharpless & Carpenter
VS.. James w. Bell, which has en-
gagged the attention of the court
since Tuesday of last week, was
submitted to the jury on Wednesday
and promptly decided by them in
favor of the plaintiffs. The case is
better known to our readers as the
fertilizer case, and the suit was
brought for the collection of Il bill
for fertilizers which Mr.. Bell and
others refused to pay on the ground
that the fertilizers were worthless.
The costs in the suit amounted to
about $500, and the attorneys fees
were perhaps nearly as much more.
During the trial over 100 witnesses of
the 1GG summoned were examined.
1t was q remarkable case in many
respects and attracted many visitors
to the town. The defendants, we are
advised, do not propose to make
further contests.

TO The Truckers and Shippers OF
Produce OF the Eastern Shore
Virc inTa.

The Importance of having a uni
form size OF barrel in which to ship
trucks to market is so great, that we,
the under igned Commission hier-
chants of Baltimore, beg to advise
our patrons of the necessity of using
a barrel that will hold the equivalent
of flour barrel, and be recognized
in all markets az Il standard package.
The flour barrel has been for years
the standard, by which trucks Of all
kinds have been bought and sold,
and it is now becoming almost i'm
possible to effect sales of potatoes, or
any other trucks, in pony barrels.
The prejudice existing against the
small barrel is becoming so pronoun
ced, that some of the Western States
have enacted laws, making the only
barrel lawful, to be that which has
the dimensions OF the standard flour
barrel; and purchasers in those states
are not legally bound to accept
regardless of quality and condition.
trucks, or fruits, if they are in under
sized packages.
As large quantity of potatoes etc,
from this market are distributed
throughout those states which have
adopted the standard barrel, we
think it will be impossible to sell
your products in the small barrels
which are now being used throughout
your section.
Shippers in this market making
purchases, in small barrels, will be
obliged to transfer them to standard
packages when filling orders for those
sections; and will necessarily be
obliged to buy them at prices in
accordance to quantity, also calcu
lating to themselves the extra cost of
barrels, and other incidental expenses
attached to the transfer.
Great difficulty has been eXper-
fenced in selling potatoes from your
section after the arrival Of Jersey
and our homegrown, on account of
these goods coming to market in good
sized packages;
We anticipate additional trouble
the coming season as many of Our
buyers, both resident and non-re>i-
dent, state positively that they will
not buy in other than standard bar
rel size. As these suggestions are
made solely in the interest of ship
pers, we trust you will profit by
them, and make all necessary ar.
rangements for using none other but
the standard size barrel

Our oyster planters are busily en-
gagged at this time in catching and
planting seed, and report them very
scarce, due in part to the fact that the
shuckers of Norfolk have bought
largely of oysters from our waters
this season. The Spring has been
such cold one that our planters
have been unable to get their usual
supply, and the season for catching
seed ought to be opened to them
until the first Of June.

rock Place, near jenkins Bridge,
were guests of Miss Sallie Fletcher,
last week.
Owing to sickness, Bishop Ran
dolph was prevented from holding
service at Bloxom, April 9th. His
absence was much regretted as we'll
as its cause.
y new siding has been put in
here to expedite the transportation
of produce. Six carpenters are at
work this week on the new station
being built at this place.
Special Easter service was held by
the Episcopal congregation here.
The floral decorations were very neat
and pretty. The organ pealed forth
its anthem of praise and thanksgiv-
ing, while the choir rendered some
especially good music. Special Eas
ter service was also held at the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, which had Il
large congregation and some beauti-
full anthems in celebration of the
glorious festival.
Quite number of our people at
tended the dramatic entertainment
at Jenkins Bridge, Easter Monday.
A nice program, embracing music,
drills, select recitations and dramas,
was given, and which was compound
ed with ice cream. Some of our
young people concluded that DR..
Nansen had indeed discovered the
North Pole and sent some of it to
Jenkins Bridge The entertainment
was success socially and financially.
About 500 was realized.
Rev Mr.. zimmerman came near
losing q valuable horse while he was
making a pastoral visit last week.
The horse had been turned into a
pasture with other horses. They
recognizing him as an interloper,
proceeded at once to drive him away
and abuse him, in which they seemed
to have had considerable success.
The horse was not found until the
next morning. His condition showed
the hard usage to which his fellow
equines had subjected him.
An unique entertainment was
given Monday, April Sth, by the chill
dren of the P. E. Sunday school, I'M
der the auspices of Mrs. Bowdoin
and other ladies. A troupe from Jen-
kins Bridge rendered the drama
"Cupid's Camp" with considerable
success, the various parts being well
sustained and we'll received. The
tableaux were all we'll selected and
nicely presented, especially Coming
through the rye which proved that
Every lassie has her laddie,'' when
the right one appears.

Letter From Rev. !. II. S.urgls.

DEAR OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES an illustra-
ton of spirit and methods, send you
copy of Il black mailing letter
received by me OH yesterday.
Ordinarily, no one would stoop to
notice an anonymous letter, but in
this case l feel justified in publishing
it for the coward that roteit and any
that may be with him in it, who may
be using their tongues to defame and
threaten as freely as he has used his
pen. And if so, publishing their letter
may result in identifying and bring
ing to Justice the slanderers with their
cowardly threats. Their great mis-
take is in supposing that they can
silence my voice and stop my pen by
such threats. | have said and writ
ten nothing that could give offense
to any gentleman. l am friend to
the barkeeper, but a foe of the bar
room.
For the past error of my life, l
suffered more in one hour than the
coward that wrote me could suffer in
a thousand years. In contrition,
meekness and silence, | endured
without protest or out cry, not only
my just deserts, but injustice. as well.
Uncomplainingly and in silence l
bore the assaults and whisperings of
any and every soul, whose jealousy,
envy, malice, or illwill from any
cause, led them to feel safe in max
ing me a continuous target. l now
give notice to all concerned, that, [
have stood all of this that | intend
to stand. From henceforth, l shall
hold every discovered slanderer to
the fullest accountability and prose
cution that the law admits of.
The matchmaking letter that l
herewith append, claims to have
been written from Keller, but the
postmark shows that, it was mailed
at Parksley. There is no telling
where the writer lives, nor how many
or few he writes for.
