MARYLAND.

We received last evening" from + lend al An
napos, the truly gratifying intelligence that the
bill appropriating one million seuyn hundred thou
sand dollars, Tor internal IMpRovEMENT has
finally passed both Houses, and will doub,less, be
signed by the Governor Immediately. The public
spirit that produced the passage of this act, will, if
persevered in and properly directed soon entitle
Maryland to high rank among her sister States.
Her local advantages numerous. her resources
a'e immense, and in enterprise, her citizens are
second to none This law will call her resources
into action. will give new impulse to industry and
enterprise, and make her future prosperity certain.
The bill to create Board of Public Works was
taken up in Senate on Saturday last, and finally
passed by majority Of three yotes-it is now
law OF the State The Board consists of--Thomas
Buchanan, Richard Potts, Robert W. Bowie, Isaac
NJ Kim, William Howard, Ezekiel + Chambers
Robert H Goldsborough, and I4luleton Dennis.
The Governor of the State being es o6icio Presi-
dent OF the Board.
The bill to prevent the unnecessary accumulation
Of costs ppon civil suits, has passed both Houses.
Only one set of costs now be recovered upon
suit on joint bonds, and other such instruments.
This is a most important measure, and will tend to
reduce the number of civil suits brought into the
courts, perhaps one third.

Cuba lies in such position in reference to the Uni

CONGRESS.-We have lately published very
little of the proceedings of this body chiefly because
they have been of nature not calculated inter
est our readers. The Senate continue to spend the
greater part of their session in the consideration OF
Executive business. In The House OF Representa-
tives the debate on the subject o! amendments to
the Constitution consumes great portion OF time ;
and the National Journal OF Tuesday says, that
from the number and ardor of the candidates for
the floor, we may fairly anticipate thai the discussion
this subject is only just opened, and that will
occupy the House for the next two or three weeks.
On Tuesday the Senate passed the bill making
appropriations for the support of Government for
the year 1926. The bill making appropriation for
certain fortHcations was called up, and after some
debate on the item Of the appropriation OF $4,000
for the purchase Of land at Throg's Point N. Y
for the purpose of erecting fort, motion OF Mr.
Harrison, tue bill was laid o, the table, and the
Senate proceeded to the consideration OF Executive
business.
In the House of Representatives, the discussion
on the amendments to the constitution was resumed
in Committee Of the Whole on the state of The
Union.

FRAUDS ON PRINTERS.

Among all the yeXatlonS, mlseres, tor
ments, and suflerngs those industrious
drudpes are fated TO endure, who and and
abct the circulation Of ink, giving ugor,
strength and freshness to every ilbfe and
nerve of the body polite, none are ieltmore
kcenly than those inflicted from that nu-
merous and respectable class of readers
and patrons. connected with every news
paper in the land, and embracing the most
DISTINGUISHED individuals in the community,
known and denomnated as BORROWERS.
The INJURIES coming from such kind and
well meaning friends are more cruel than
the malicious difficulties i'll which we may
be involved by our open enemies. We
might be submissive under the occasional
cheatage incident to all trades and profes-
sions, but it is beyond human patience to
endure, without murmur or complaint, Il
continual series and unCeaslng succession
of frauds for we DO take the freedom to
say, that the person who ayall5 himself
without reserve and without compensation
Of the labors, expenses and cares OF the
printer, is guilty OF moral, II not legal
fraud. The newspaper publisher ISSUES his
| sheet for the purpose of giving information
| to the honest subscriber, To afford Instruc-
, ton to his children, and qualification to hls
| family not to anuse the individual who
| can stoop to the meanness Of Withholding
the little sum Of profit, at the best precarl-
ous and slender, the only proper article OF
exchange for paper, ink and printing. We
do not speak of the inconvenience suffered
by the subscriber himself, who ls frequent
ly prevented from deriving any benefit from
his paper, until half Il dozen niggardly bor-
rowers have satisfied the curiosity they
are willing to indulge, although not tibe-
raj enough to pay for, because the fault Is
with the excessive good nature which in
duccs them to submit to such imposlton,and
the blame almost entirely attributable to
the casihess of disposition which cannot for
bid the injuries to their own rights from The
fear of offending their nc!Shbors' ourFe.
marks are confined to our own pecui'SF sui
fcrings. The printer is considered as
publc servant, and rs such, is bound to pro-
vide for the public taste but we should as
soon think ofsitting down at the well spread
table of mine host of the tavern, and after
relieving hunger, TO skulk away without
discharging his bill, as to dcvour the enter
tainment weekly provided by the Printer
without making him his stated and fixed
compensation for his trouble and expense

Dishes Worcester Egis.
