The grand jury for this session Of
the court adjourned on last Saturday
morning. During the labors of this
body forty-four presentments were
made. The report of the jury, in
substance is as follows:
To the H0nOrable, the JudgeS Of the
Cjrcujt Couyt for GarreH coatnty:
We, the grand inquest for the State
of Maryland for the body of Garrett
county, beg leave to make the follow
ing report:
We have discharged the duties in
cumbent upon us as grand jurors by
examining all witnesses sent before
US, making presentments in all cases
where we considered the evidence
sufficient to Justify it, and by dismis-
sing without unnecessary delay all
witnesses as soon as possible after
their testimony had been secured.
We have visited the Jail and exam
ined it carefully. We find this build
ing in good order and as clean as it is
possible for the sheriff to keep it un-
der the present circumstances. At
the suggestion of the court a commit
tee was appointed to investigate the
sanitary condition of the JAIL and we
herewith submit their report and
adopt it as part of our report.
We strongly advise that electric
lights be placed in the Jail instead of
| the oil lamps. We would especially
recommend that the county commits
siOners see to the repairing of the roof
of the court house, as we find it in
| had condition pSnpciallV around the

Last Thursday when THE REPUB-
LTCAN was put on press the case of
Shartzer VS.. the Mountain Lake Park
Association was occupying the atten-
tiOn of the court. Counsel for Shartz-
er took exceptions to the rulings of
the court on a demurrer and appealed
the case to the Court OF Appeals
where it will come up in October for
final disposition.
Friday the court took up the case
of Mrs. Chas. Cummings VS.. Walter
ID. Collier. This was an action for
damages based upon the claim that
the defendant sold liquor to the hus-
band Of the plaintiff after said plain
tiff had served notice on the defend
ant not to make such sale. The case
took up all day of Friday and Satur-
day afternoon the jury rendered Il
verdict awarding Mrs. Cummings
$400. The suit was for $4,000.
Monday a like case wherein Mrs.
Cummings was plaintiff and Wash
ingtOn Taylor the defendant, was
taken up. This was also a damage
suit for $4,000 and on Tuesday after
noon a verdict was rendered awarding
Mrs. Cummings 5000. Messrs. Will
liams and Renninger appeared for
the plaintiff and Messrs. Hamill and
Peddicord for the defendants in both
cases.
Judge Boyd came up from Cumber-
land yesterday morning and took his
seat with that of Associate Judge
Sloan. Judge Stake will be here next
week.
The probabilities are that court will
remain in session two weeks longer.

The ponocratic Nreetina.

Monday night of this week the can
didate on the Popocratic ticket for
Congress from this district was to
speak in Offutt's hail at o'clock, but
by combination of circumstances he
missed his train and did not arrive
until train No. came in at ten o'clock.
AT the hour appointed for the
meeting a number of ladies, few
Democrats and some Popocrats were
in the hall and the meeting was called
to order by Mr.. William Miller, of
Accident, county chairman and sena-
tOrial aspirant on the Democratic
ticket Mr.. Miller announced that
DR.. Bartlett would preside and also
announced large number Of vice
presidents of the meeting.
Dr. Bartlett in speech of a few
minutes duration introduced Mr..
Ferdinand Williams, of Cumberland,
who spoke for short time making
the assertion that the platform adOp-
ted by the Pops at Chicago was
equaled only by the Declaration of
Independence. This did not seem to
strike the majority of those present
so he sheered off and heaped abuse
upon the Republican party without
stint. \ young man from somewhere
in Pennsylvania was next introduced
and kept the crowd in a good humor
until the train arrived bearing Mr..
Lee, who spoke for about an hour.

The Pearra Diyorce.
Sept. II, 1876.

In Cumberland Monday Chief Judge
Boyd filed his final decree in the mat
ter of the application OF Mrs. Zelma
Lorena (Pearrel Robinson, asking for
a rehearing of The decree passed by
the late Judge Hoffman, granting
William Pearre a divorce from her
Judge Boyd III a lengthy opinion re
views the whole matter from begin
ming to end, and holds that the an
swer filed by VIM Pearre as sustained
by him was a complete bar TO her fur
ther contention.
The opinion says that her proper
remedy, if She desired to question the
correctness Of Judge HOirman's de-
cree, was to have taken an appeal to
the Court Of Appeals; that she had
immediate notice Of the passage Of
the decree and had sixty days in
which to enter her appeal and also
the same in which to file her petition
for rehearing. She, however, did
neither within the time. The Judge
now decides that the petition comes
too late and cannot be sustained, and
he has thereupon filed his order dis
missing the petition.
This, is believed, is the end of a
lone a<Sl! tedious litigation and finally
establishes the validity of the decree
of divorce.
Messrs, James A. McHenry, of Cum
berland; J. B. Lowrey, of Somerset,
Pa, and Edgar H. Cans, of Balti-
more, werecounsel for Mrs Robinson,
and Benjamin A. Richmond and d.
j. Blackiston, of Cumberland, for Mr..
Pearre.
