the State 'of Maryland came up before the Court of Appeals last week, Geo. M. appearing for the appellant and State's Attorney Mutchler lor the appellee. The case is of great local importance, inasmuch as its decision determines the effectiveness of the local option law in the Sixth and perhaps in the Third election district of Caroline county. Charles Higgins, indicted for violation of the local option law, was convicted and lined by the court in October last.

The indictment was demurred to and tlie case argued before Judge Wickes, who overruled the demurrer. The appellant claims that the law is inoperative in the Sixth district. In May, 1876, an election was held in Caroline to decide whether or not the sale of spirituous and fermented liquors should be prohibited. The law required that the vote be by districts, the majority in each district not operating beyond its limits. The Third district voted against the sale.

Tho dread reaper has boon again at work among us. Two Christian women, wonderfully ullke in their self- sacrificing devotio.i to their faith, ornaments of the church, and bright examples to those of weaker parts- one having just reached womanhood, the other having completed the flood of years-- have made two desolate firesides by their death. It is seldom wo have to chronicle a death In many circumstances so sad ns that of Miss Mary C. llidgely, the only daughter of Mr. Win.

S. Ridgely, which took place on the 5th at her homo in Annapolis. It is rare that so young a life gathers so many strong and tender affections as were bestowed upon this young lady. She was the light of a happy home, and the pride of her church communion. For several years and until her recent removal to Annapolis, Miss Ridgely was the organist of Christ church and an active worker in the Guild of the parish.

Her illness, which was of several months duration, was an iu- curablo affection of the lungs, yet her distressing malady was borne with Christian serenity, and without fear. Even with joy she awaited her triumphant death. Her attendance ut the service was, until a few weeks since, always punctual, and her presence was an inspiration to every heart. The funeral services were held at St. Paul's church, Ilillsboro', on Wednesday afternoon last, the remains having been conveyed from Annapolis.

Revs. S. D. Hall and George F. Beaven oincialed.

Interment took place in the family burial lot in the church yard where rests tho dust of her reverend grand-parent, the late Greenbury W. Ridgely. Mrs. Thomas H. Slaughter died at her home, near Denton, on -Wednesday morning last, after many years of failing health and bodily suffering.

Her death was scarcely a surprise to any one who knew of her gathering years and affliction. Mrs. Slaughter's life was for more than half a century a perfect Christian example nnd is and will be a pleasing contemplation for all yet remaining who knew her well. She was a consistent member of the M. E.

church. The funeral services were held on Thursday afternoon last. Rev. T. O.

Ayres delivered nn appropriate address from the sweet Scriptural promise: I Hesse nrc the dead which die in tho Lord from henceforth: Yea, saitli the- Spirit, tlmt they may from their labors; and their lollow them. The remains were interred in the Denton cemetery. Mrs. Slaughter leaves three childi jn, John Thos. and Mnr.v CAM.

WJIEELEK SUED. One Thousand Dollars Damages Awarded for Thrashing 1 an Abusive Negro Woman. In the United States Circuit Court, Baltimore, on Monday hist, the trial was entered upon of the action of Catherine Brown, a young colored woman, who sued dipt. Caleb C. Wheeler, of Hilhhorough, for assaulting and beating her lint July.

Capt. Wheeler is well known in the county, and is one of its most highly esteemed citifeus. lie has by steady devotion to accumulated quite a fortune. He is the owner of the Wheeler Transportation Line. Catherine Brown is about 23 years old, and is represented ns being nn abusive character.

Capt. counsel was II. V. D. Johns, of Baltimore, while J.

W. Bryant, Howard Bryant, and W. M. Simpson, represented the woman. Three separate assaults were charged, and SIO.OOO churned for eacli; but the third charge was withdrawn.

Catherine Brown testified that she lived in Philadelphia with Rov. Mr. McKay, where she went four months ngo. She hud been living with Wheeler as cook. Shehml worth with Mw.

Wheeler and left her employment, telling Captain Wheeler she was going. She went tr Fannie Perkin's, in the neighborhood. The wiinc day Capt. Wheeler came, with William Wilkinson, who pulled hor out of the house and struck her. Next day she went before Justice of the Peace Francis J.

Willoughby, to make complaint. The same two men dragged her out of the ofllce. Wilkinson then whipped her severely. She started that afternoon to walk to Denton. At Denton bridge Wilkinson again assaulted and choked her.

She was put in jail. She spit blood while in Jail, and still suffered from her beatings. This, briefly, was thu woman's story before the court. For the defense it was proved by Mrs. Sherwood, a neighbor of Capt.

Wheeler's that while Mrs. Wheeler was sick tho girl attacked her (Mrs. Wheeler) in very nbnslvo and indecent epitliets. Tho girl was discharged. 'Squire Hulson, of Donton, testified tlmt the girl told him that Capt.

Whueler did not beat her; it was Wilkinson she complained of. W. II. Mason tcstiilcil that the blow ho paw Captain Wheeler give the girl was not Severn. Judge Morris decided that the girl could change her residence to another State in order to bring suit in the United States Court, provided the change was intended to be permanent.

On Tuesday the evidence was concluded. Win. J. Wilkinson testified and assuincd tho responsibility for the assaults complained of, except the first, which he said was a of the open hand by Capt. Wheeler.

Witness whipped her next day be- c.ui»o of her charges and threats against him. He said he was not asked by Captain Wheeler to whip the woman. Capt. Wheeler testified, saying he went to reprove her for her language to his wife, and not with tho intention of assaulting her. Prayers were offered, and were held, over till Wednesday, when the judge instructed" tho "jury law.

Messrs. Bryant and Simpson claimed the woman was entitled to punitive and exemplary damages, and not merely compensation for the actual injury sustained. Judge Morris said if Captain Wheeler, at the assault bo- fore tho magistrate's office, struck a bystander who was interfering to protect the woman, that would maku Wheeler a participant in the assault. George M. Russum, Dr.

DJWIIO and John II. George testified to the good character of the J. Wesley Slack, a witness for the woman. The jury was instructed by the court to find for the plaintiff and to bring in a sealed verdict. On Thursday morning the jury rendered a verdict for damages and costs.

About thirty witnesses were in attendance, most of them from Hillsborough nnd Denton. Tho costs will likely amount to over $1.000.

She district (the Sixth) in Caroline county, out of a part of the Third district, which four years before had decided against the sale of fermented liquors. The attorney for the appellant claims that since tho Sixth district has never voted on tho question, as district, therefore tho law is inoperative. The appellee, on the other hand, claims that the laws in force in the Sixth district while it was yet a part of the Third, were in no way changed by the making of a new district, since the act of tho legislature created the new district for the purpose of giving the voters of that territory a more convenient polling place, and not to make inoperative any of the existing Several authorities were produced in support of the ap- pellee's claim that the local option law was not repealed by implication.

The case also calls into question whether the law is effective in the Third district. We quote from Mr. Mutchler's brief: "If the appellant's argument is well-founded, then also chapter 180, of the Acts of 1870, is inoperative and void repealed in what is now the Third election district. If the simple division of the district served to repeal the Act of Assembly in question, in one-half of It, it surely operated in like manner in the other half.

Cold and dreary blasts of icy winter have been signaled by falling snowflakes and the glass covered surface of pond and lake. The parti-colored foliage of the forests 1ms disappeared, and the skeletons of huge oaks stand out boldly to brave the coming tempest. The animal creation, thro' their instinctive admonitions, draw closely to their respective shelters, unlike their desires to roam and graze the distant fields of a few months ago; but quietly await their master's coming to be sheltered and fed.

The family have drawn their favorite chairs around the cheerful grate, and are looking intently at the glowing fire, waiting and watching as it were for the arrival of their Arctic visitor. The farmer has carefully secured his perishable crops from the frosta of the great Ice King. His wood pile lias also been attended to and presents (juite a comfortable appearance. He knows that cold and dreary winter will be ushered in sooner or later, and, acting wisely, has thus prepared himself. While this is" all true, and the husbandman much to be commended, a suggestion at this point seems very opportune.
