Butt we would have them triumph at
our hands we must show that we appreci-
ate them; we must stand by them firmly;
we must sustain them with ardour, with
energy, with watchful and determined
spirits. Along with the inheritance of
freedom bequeathed to us by our fathers,
the sacred duty Of guarding and defending
it was also transmitted; with the privlle-
ges Of self-government came its respos-
b!liles too. Let us not prove unworthy
of the trus.. Let no exertions be consid-
cred painful, no sacrifices hard, no duties
irksome, in the work to which we are de-
voted. Success viii! repay all and more.
Checking the onward progress of des-
trucllvencss and repellmg the threatened
approaches of anarchy, let us strive to give
period Of rcpose to the distracted land,
that the people, realizing the blessings of
good government, and growing in knowl-
edge and virtue, may stand hereafter dou-
bly, strong against the insiduous arts of
demagogues that would court 10 bctrav
them. Wings of Maryland! you owe 1t
to yourselves and to the country tc vim
dictate your cause. One triumphant vic
tory nor, such as you know how to
achieve, will sound like re animating
tocsin throughout the LAND. Let US make
somethink more than q Thermopylp of
our position. We can not only stop the
advance Of our advcrsarics; uc can route
them, as though the shouts of 1910 were
ringing in their ears. We have leader
that knows no falterlng. Let us stand by
him as he has nobly stood by his coun-
try. The day of the Peoples redemption
will surely come!

SEE HERE.-We have been riding out
through the country little lately, and
have heard in our travels base lies circu-
lated by certain interested gentlemen
against Edward L, Foard, the peoples
candidate for the Sheriflality. Now no
lie, no slander,no tale, that they can vend,
can injure him where he is Known, the
people are acquainted with his merits
and at their hands he will receive Justice.
but lest he may be wronged where he is
stranger, we see proper TO say to whom
i, may concern, that although we are en-
irely auerse to making our columns the
channels for conveying to the voters OF
tho county, the personal vices and mean
ness ofany individual, we shall be willing
if the lies alluded to above are retold, to
enter into an examination of the charac-
lers of the several candidates, now before
the voters Of the county. Our feelings
revolt at such course, but if we are for
ced to it. we shall seize the facts, which
our opponents knor can be used against
them, and shall deal them out to surpris-
ed public, with an unsparing hand.

The Democracy.

The members of the democratic part,
will be surprised to find themselves lee
tured on their duty by the editor of the
Madisonan. 1t seems that some editor
in New York has been the impudence to
advocate the nomination of Mr.. Van Bu.
rem, without previous consultation with
the Madisonian, and that some democrat
ic Senators have been guilty of commit.
ting the like oflence-and for this, both
the editor and the senator's are threatened
with revolt by their party. This revolt
is to be produced by the labors of this
new champion of democracy. Blu, to
what does all this lend2 To our mind
the object is plain. Mr.. Tyler begins to
despair of being the democratic candi-
date himself, and is resolved TO throw his
influence in favor of Mr. Calhoun. The
porty is to be whipt into his nomination
through the columns of the Madisonian.
Hear what the editor says:
ave would simply observe, in conclu-
sion, for it must have escaped the obser-
vaton Of these "heading" Democratic
leaders, that when Mr.. Calhoun was
thrown overheard by the politicians some
years ago, they had General Jackson for
their leader, and the whole influence of
the existing Administration in their favor.
The case is different now 1t is differ
ent with the "rank and file" Mr.. CAL
houn certainly has so great a share in
the affections of the People as any other
man; and if he is to be thas uuceremoni-
ously thrown overheard by one or two
ambitious leaders we shall not be surpris-
ed to see the ,chole crep jump oper after
him, and rescue him from such an igno-
minious death. Such will be the REVOLT,
and the intriguing officers may find them
selves swinging from the yald-arln!'
This is plain talk for man who has
just jumped into the democratic ranks. 1t
seems that Mr.. Tyler, having turned from
check-mating the wings, is now resolved
to block the game on the democrats.
They must make no move, but by his
permission. under the penalty of Saving
ing from the yard-armn' Mr.. Calhoun
must be the candidate of the party, pro-
vided John Tyler cannot. This is the
command. Well, it is none of our bust
ness-but it looks little odd TO our view,
to see the vice-president elected by the
wings debating peremptorily who shall
be the candidate Of the democrats. 1t rs
said that new converts always exhibit
most zeal; but there is such thing as
being "zealous overmuch;" and modesty
would seem to demand that he who, in
1910, denounced the democratic party,
should not, in 1912, assume to control
the nominations of that party. Mr.. Van
Buren, seems 10 be in bad odour a. the

determined for our part to submit to no decision
that would throw aside Henry Clay of Kentucky;
but as regards the Vice Presidency, VIC are not
so determined in our choice, not but that as much
care should be taken in the selection for the one
Office as for the Other but after taking Mr. Clay
for the President, we have III the next rank sev-
erul distinguished men, between whom it is hard
10 choose; and as the late State Convention
thought it inexpedcnt to name candidate for
tho Vice Presidency, we will for the time being,
take down the name of Mr.. Clayton, and wait
the action Of the party generally, still believing
however, that the talents and principles of that
great man. are such as to place him amongst the
foremost Of those who are thought of for that
Office.

.WHIG PROMISES"

Before the election of lS40, it was the
standing complaint ofthe Loco-focos that

uould not declare the principles on which
they intended to conduct the government,

for Log cabins, coonskins, Hard cider,
and Tippecanoe. .Nio,D these same vera :

! CAN'T AND Pill TRY.

n rcry little story By lille girl 10 gears
old.
] Can't and III Try, were two little
girls that lived in the same village, and
attended school together. They were
cousins, but no person would think, from
their looks or actions, that they were in
any way related to each other. Can't
was sulky, stupid looking girl, who
never did any thing in good humor in
her life. lll Try was an amiablc, good
tempered child, who always did what she
was told in the most cheerful manner.
Or course they were not very ultimate.
being so unlike in every respect. But
LET us see how they prospered at school.
I'll Try was beloved by all her compan-
ions for her gcntlcness and willingness TO
obllgc; and she was never in want of
friends, because size was kind TO every
body. Can't had but one friend IN the
school, and that was Miss Siolhlul, who
always encouraged her in all her bad
ways. lrher teacher told her to learn a
lesson, or write composition, Miss
Slothful would tell her to wait, for She
could not do it by herself, and perhaps
some one would help her by and BY, or
may be her teacher would excuse her, so
she was never ready when called upon to
say her lessons; and when her compost
tons were asked for, she would always
make some excuse for their not being
ready. She was often corrected for her
misconduct, but she never reformed, and
grew up to be an ignorant, idle, pccvish
old maid. She never had but one beau in
her life, and when he asked her to marry
him, she was so in the habit of saying no.
to every body that asked a faror of her,
that she said it to him, when she meant to
say yes; and he was off in tangent be-
fore she had time to correct her mistake.
But rll Try made out very different; she
always was first in her classes at school,
and if there were to be any premiums to
be obtained she was sure TO get one.
Her teacher loved her for her obedience,
and never had occasion TO reprore her for
misconduct And when she left school,
she was the delight of her parents and the
favorite of al who knew her. Finally,
among many who sought her hand she
chose one, In every respect worthy of her,
with whom she lived happily many years.

hS"The President on Tuesday last sent pro-
test to the House Of Represent atives against its
proceedings censuring his last veto message. On
motion of Mr.. Bolts, the following resolutions
were passed in regard to it, which are the same
that were passed by the Senate in 1884, when
protest was sent that body by General Jackson.
!. Reso7ued, That while this House is
and ever will be ready to receive from the
President all such messages and commun-
lcations as the Constitution and laws and
the usual course Of public business au-
thorise him to transmit to it, yet it cannot
recognize any RICH in him to make for
NAL protest against votes and proceedings
OF this House, declaring such votes and
proceedings to be illegal and unconstitu-
Iional, and requesting the House to enter
such protest on it Journal.
9. Resolred, That the aforesaid protest
is breach of the privileges of this House,
and that it be not entered on the Journal.
3. Resolved, That the President of the
United States has no right to send pro-
test to this House against any Of its pro-
ceedings.

biennial Sessions of TIC
Legislature.

AT the approaching election in October,
the question of biennial sessions will be
submitted to the vote of the people. If
sustained at the polls, and confirmed by
the next Legislature, the Act of the last
session on the subject will become a part
of the constitution of Maryland. The
tlagerstown Herald of Freedom gives
the following condensed view of the law.
The act in question provides first, that
the members of the House of Delegates
shall be elected once in every two years,
unless convened in ertra sessions by pro-
clamaton OF the Governor.
The second provision is, that the She
riffs of the different counties of the State,
shall hold their respective offices for four
wears, instead of three, as now provided
for by law.
The third provision declares that the
Governor shall hold Office for four years,
instead of three, as now provided for by
law.
The fourth provision makes it the duty
of the Judges of the next October cleo
ton. throughout the State, to demand of
each voter, as he deposits his ballot,
whether he is. for or against the provisions
of said act; and the judges are to keep
list of the votes thus given, and make re-
turn thereof to the proper authority, to be
laid before the Legislature at its next
meeting for Their Information end gui-

THE NEYT PKESxDEN'
Cr

The action of the Wings in reference
to the next Presidency is Strongly in con-
trast with the movements of their political
opponents. On our side there is but one
candidate thought of. Without diversity
OF views or variation of sentimcnt-With-
out hesitation or reserve, the Wings go
for HENRY CLAY. The popular fee
ling speaks without prompting, and that
feeling is ardent and powerful; it will act
with all the advantages that result from
unity OF purpose, and with all the force
that belongs to a concentration of cner-
gy.
On the other side nothing is seen but
DIVISION, uncertainty and irresolution. The
claims OF rival aspirants distract the party,
and give rise to dissention and jealousy
The friends of Mr.. Calhoun seem resol-
we'd that their favouri,e shall stand. Col.
johnson is already nominated, and with
pleasant GOODNESS Of irony that would do
credit to MIR. Van Buren, himself, the Har-
rlsburg meeting, after declaring for the
Colonel, resolved that 'the letter of Mr..
Van Buren, to the Missouri legislature.
declining the nomination for the Prea-
dency,sexhibts his devotion to the best in
tcrests of the democratic party, and meets
the decided appreciation Of the people of
the whole Union, and especially of the
democracy Of Pennsylvania"
The Albany Argus becomes uneasy a,
this gentle insinuation, and says, "The
idea that Mr.. Van Buren, has declined a
nomination. or will decline such a mani
testation Of the popular and democratic
will, if it shall be rendered, is not, we
presume,.a just application Of the Ian
guage of his letter TO the legislature of
| Missouri"
Almost simultaneous with this the N.
York Evening Post, expressing its admi-
ration for MIR. Calhoun in an abstract point
of view. takes occasion 10 ado, but al
lowing all that his friends can, with toler-
able fairness, claim for him, we cannot re-
sist the conclusion that the proper candi-
date of the democratic party is Mr.. Van Blu
rem" This declaration is followed by an E.
Elaborate eulogy of Mr.. Van Buren's ia
Tents and services, and by an inlima-
ton of the proprety Of national con-
vcnlion.
Here then are three candidates who
may be considered as in the field, on the
other side. How Mr.. Calhoun and Col
Johnson stand affected towards a nation
al convention we do no. know. The lat
ter parsonage may perhaps retain some
recollection of the convention in this city,
which did not nominate candidate for tie
Vice Presidency, few years ago.
In addition to the three already named
there is Mr.. Buchanan who has many
strong friends; and there will be an etlor,
made, no doubt, to unite the locofcco
party upon Mr.. Tylcr-with what success
time will show.
We shall not dwell further at present IL.
