Anne Arnmlel Truck.
Long Dock, Baltimore, presented a
scene of business activity, by the first
large arrival of boats from the truck
farms of this county. They were
freighted with large quantities of lus
cious strawberries, which were sold
at good prices. The Sun says : a
feature of the truck fleet was the
handsome appearance the boats made.
All have been recently painted in
bright colors. Many were decorated
in bunting in honor of their first trip
with the season’s products. On the
return trip,mosl of the boats carried
dow r n bands of pickers, consisting of
men, women and children. The ar
rangements of last year, by which
there were night and day boats, will
be carried out this year. This is done
to avoid the great inconvenience that
would grow out of so many vessels
being in the dock at one time, as well
as afford a better chance for shippers
to get off their truck for local points
by early trains, or have it in market
in the morning.
Annapolis Cornet Band.
Now that the weather is getting to
be pleasant w r e w r ould suggest to the
members of the Cornet Bajid of this
city the propriety of utilizing some
suitable spot on the State House Hill
during some specified evenings in
each week in exercising their musical
talent. We feel confident it would
meet with the endorsement and kind
appreciation of Annapolitans general
ly and especially the ladies. Such a
movement would be something new
and attractive. Now gentlemen we
have given you the suggestion, will
you heed it? We hope so.
Personal.
Mr. John Sands, an old Anna
politan, and for several years a resi
dent of the West, reached here last
evening, on a visit to his aged parents
and was greeted by many of his old
friends and associate.
Base Ball.
The St. John’s College base ball
j club have challenged the Naval Acad
emy club for a game of base ball on
Saturday, 31st. The game will take
place at the college grounds. The
same club have also challenged the
South River club for a game on Sat
urday week, June 7th.

Annapolis Harbor.
Who aro interested in the material
improvement of our harbor? This
question has been frequently pro
pounded, but we think one need not
£0 around Robin Hood’s Rarn to
lind||p explicit answer. Every one,
both in this eity and county, has an
interest in this matter, and especially
| our City Council, who have the “gen
! eral welfare” clause in their keeping.
Some SIO,OOO has already boen ap
propriated by Congress to remove
the Greenbury and Horn Point bars,
and as the annual river and harbor
bill is yet to be reported, would it not
be a good move on the part of our „
City Fathers to pass a resolution
asking Congress to appropriate the
necessary amount, as recommended
by Engineer Craighill, in his last
report, to deepen and otherwise im
prove our harbor?
Arrested for Mutiny.
The cry of ‘mutiny on the Dale,’ star
tled the marine guard at Naval Acad
my last night about eleven o’clock,
and a squad of six marines hurried to
the ship, lyidg in the Severn to ar
rest the mutineers. It appears that
the officer of the ship ordered the
hatches battened and the yards braced
to meet an expected blow. When the
hatches went over their breathing
holes, the sailors down below who, it
appears, had broken in the liquor
chest and pantry, and, with alcohol
and sugar had made toddy, rushed for
tne upper deck.
This demonstration [the officer in
charge construed to be mutinous, and
the marine guard was sent for to ar
rest them. A number of sailors were
found by the guard half-seas over,
lying quiet in their hammocks and
were not disturbed; but two others
were arrested aud placed in confine
ment.
Flitlierim-n Before tin* Uorernor,
A delegation of fishermen of this
place, composed of Messrs. Geo. W.
Clark, Geo. W. Quaid, Frank Mit
chell, Henry Campbell and John
Wayson waited on the Governor this
morning to ask him if he thought the
law which prevented any person, save
Queen Anue’s county people, from
fishing in Eastern Bay, was consti
tutional. The delegation was accom
panied by Mr. John E. McCusker
who acted as spokesman. The Gov
ernor, whilst he expressed no opinion
said he would have the Attorney-
General to investigate the subject
and give him his views.
