Gude and William Gude deserve credit for the array of palms, ferns, tulips and other cut flowers, which formed an embankment which had for its centerpiece a blaze of lights, forming the word welcome, under- neath of which was another blaze forming the star of the order.

Church South, will be held in the Poolesville Church of that denomination on Saturday and Sunday next, Rev. J. S. Hutchinson, presiding elder of Baltimore district, having charge of the services. Information from various sections of the county represents that since the recent heavy snow storm not a partridge has been seen, and it is feared that the greater num- ber have perished from the effects of the intense cold and want of food. The young people of the vicinity of Daw- sonville will give a ball at that place on Friday evening, to which a large number of invitations have been issued. A donatior party for the relief of the Kansas and Nebraska sufferers will be held at Lyddane’s Hall, this place, on next Tuesday, from 12 m. to 5 p.m. The Dawsonville Literary Society, which was prevented from holding its last ap- pointed meeting by reason of the great storm, will meet at the residence of Mr. Clinton Allnutt on Friday evening, March 1. The teachers and pupils of Briarley Hall Seminary, near Poolesville, will hold a reception on next Friday evening. These receptions are a very pleasant social feature of that section of the county, and have been largely attended during the winter. Miss Eva Dawson of Dawsonville, who has for some weeks been visiting Miss Mamie Brown of Washington, returned to her home this week. Mr. Henry Lowe, one of the oldest and best-known residents of the western section of the county, died on Wednesday last. Rev. C. P. Smith conducted the funeral services of deceased, the interment taking place at Monocacy cemetery. The very effective manner in which the public roads have recently been cleared of the heavy snow drifts by the voluntary action of farmers has opened the eyes of many to the possibility of what might be accomplished by concerted action in an- other direction. In this instance the tax- payers of the county have doubtless been saved a large amount of money, and the question arises whether a like result could not be accomplished by, similar effort in hauling stone upon the public roads. Stone is plentiful in all parts of the count, in fact, much too plentiful on a majority of farms, and if each farmer would but devote three or four days during the year to hauling it upon the public highways the roads would in a short time be per- manently improved. With the stone de- livered free pan the roads there would then be but little excuse for the county authorities to decline to macadamize the same, and in a few years the county could boast of having os good roads as any in the state. The increased value of farms would repay a hundred fold the small out- lay in furnishing the stone. Resolutions of respect to the memory of Charles Eagle, who was accidentally killed at the recent fire at this place, have been passed by Forest Oak Juvenile Temple of Gaithersburg and forwarded to his be- reaved family in this town. Deceased was an_active member of the order. The largest crop of ice ever gathered in this vicinity has been housed here during the present winter.

He says it was the intention of the real leaders of the insurrection to overthrow the government and not reinstate the queen, but to put in a new leader of the republic. About the time the government was prematurely in- formed of the plot the queen and her sup- porters were apprised of the duplicity, and that was the true reason she so promptly abdicated. Faulkner says the schooner Wahlburg and other vessels landed 1,500 rifles and 1,000 pistols, of which, up to last advices, less than one-third had been found, and he predicts that the remainder will be cached for future insurrections. He further declares that the bombs found in the building near Washington Place were intended to be thrown into the police station and military barracks, and not for the purpose of destroying the church, as previously reported. Among the royalists, of which he is a member, it is generally believed that Spreckels was not in sym- pathy with the uprising. ——_—_——__- e+_____ Testimony to Be Published. Chancellor Alexander T.
