The usual quietness of Havre de Grace was
rudely broken on Tuesday afternoon by the
news that a resident of the city had commit
ted suicide. Investigation revealed the fact
that Mrs. Emily Obcrdcrfer, the wife Of Geo.
Oberderfer, butcher, had ended her life by
drinking laudumn. 1t seemed that the wo-
man, who was about forty one years Of age,
had been very dissipated for some time past,
and the fact had caused her husband to re-
monstrate with her several times lately. The
family removed to Havre de Grace from Balti-
more, where they had numerous friends, and
had been living in Hartford county for about
two years. On Tuesday morning Oberderfer
again spoke to his wife concerning the matter
aud warned her that if she did not abandon
the use of intoxicants he would be obliged te
resort to sterner measures. She declared her
intention to reform and said that she would
go before justice for that purpose.
About three o'clock on that afternoon
Oberderfer went to his home and found his
wife staggering into the house from the yard.
He supposed that she was again under the
influence of liquor. She dropped into a chair
looked at him in very silly manner and eX-
claimed. 81 am going home now" Hardly
had the words become cold upon her lips,
when she fell forward upon the floor, and
died without another word. Two physicians
were summoned Immediately, but she was
beyond human aid.
There are two small girls one about eight
years of age, and the other about four.
jury of inquest was held on Tuesday night.

the vine. IL is alcohol that intoxicates No
where i'll His Word has G cd condemned the use
of that which being abused may intoXicate.
The distinction of Bible wires as good and bad,
the one the type of Gods grace the other of
His wrath, is mere igmcnt. II il enough to
say that we learn from the ninth chapter of
Genesis, THAT through the drinking of wine, in
Hebrew YayiH Noah brought shame upon
himself, and u curse upon son. In the 18th
of Genesis, goth Verse, we may see that, by
Gods ordering, this same wine. lagiH. was
drunk in worship before the Lord with rejoic-
ing. To one who has been addicted to drink
and would live better lif total abstinence is
an imperative obligation as he would save his
soul. There is for him no ether safeguard. So,
to one whose father was a drunkard, and who
has thus the hereditary faint of love of liquor,
it is dangerous 10 touch that which may develop
the tendency. \ man who would subdue his
body to his spirit, may. if he pleases, drink only
water and eat only bread, -gluttony us much
as drunkenness issa sin against God. But no
man has a right to enforce on other men total
abstinence from anything that God allows; to
prohibit the use of wine any more than mar
riage.
Local option, as Il civil law, is to be Judged
of by rules of cxpediencc. Our grand jury
have venturcd to say that, as yet, in Hartford
it has not answered its purpose; and to suggest
the possible need of a STRONG license" in its
stead. They will receive from some, praise for
their courage; from Others they will reap hearty
denunciation as will anyone who, in any pub
lie manner dares to approve their suggestion.
For myself | have been told, to my face, by
prominent Prohibitionist, that / have little
cause to call myself Christian; and from
pulpit i'll Bel Air, have been denounced AS an
approved Of rum holes, and companion Of
rum sellers, the sIayers Of souls. How blessed
a thing it is that God has not committed the
Judgment of man to his fellow sinner.

The interest which has been awakened in
Hartford county by the proposition to run an
electric railway across the county has not
abated, but seems rather to increase under the
uncertainty which surrounds the matter The
action of the County Commissioners in post
poning definite action upon the matter is
commended on all sides as judicious The
granting the right of way over the public
highways of the county, is matter that so
directly interests large body OF taxpayers,
that hasty action, or working in the dark,
should not be for moment considered. The
most important of all matters connected with
the case, is to know exactly with whom We
are dealing. Let US know who are the origi-
majors of the scheme, what is their financial
standing, and the extent Of their ability to
carry out a scheme which looks so well on
paper We are convinced that as soon as salts
faction is given upon these points, prompt and
efficient action will be taken, which will go
far towards Fastening the elimination of the
enterprise.
Information reaches US that according to
Mr.. j. K. Stier, who represents the projectors,
''In few days the matter will be taken up
and preliminary details pushed forward
vigorously. These will be Immediately fol-
lowed by active preparations for building the
road, dnd ii surely lrW be built" This is very
gratifying and promises an early development
of vast tract OF Harford's richest territory.
| 1t means further, close and rapid communica-
ton with the metropolis of the State. In Sc
curing the old Jerusalem turnpike the Railway
Companies of Baltimore city have provided
themselves with a road bed, which practically
| brings them within three miles of the county
seat, and surely that small distance over the
Hartford turnpike can sooB be put into COM
mission.
1t is sincerely to be hoped that no obstacle
shall be thrown in the way Of so useful and
encouraging an enterprise as this one, which
not only opens the centre of the county tC
traffic, but promises ramificatons to develop
the resources of the entire county; but it mus
be distinctly borne in mind that the extremely
valuable franchise sought for, cannot be
granted blindly, or without due consideration
