IMPRISONMENT FOR DIRT IN MARYLAND.-A
repor, that the law au,horisi0g the imprlson-
ment Of debtors in this State had been abolish
ed is incorrect. Such bill was passed al
mos, UNANIMOUSLY by the House Of Delegates,
but when it came before the Senate, il was a.
mended by striking out all after the enac''"g
clause, and substituting an entire new bill: al
together different from the House bill. THIS
bill was passed by the Senate. but received no
c0untenance in the House. This relic Of oar
barism still disgraces the state book OF Mary

suffering and death among the swine and

years gone by. on account Of his peculiar views
ot society. has been recently nominated in
Indiana. as candidate for Representative to
Congress.-tie declined the nomination, and
| was requested 10 reconsider his refusal. Ia
his second letter TO the people, after stating

| ,erab-, he makes the following remarks. which
may be recommended to general observation
by their truth and proprie,y Tribune.
s. public man should never he SO situated
that the eight dollars day may become an

course or shape his conduct. When man
negIects his own business to attend 10 that Of
the public, the public cannot promise. and "a
servant ought never 10 calculate, that they will
make it up to him. The most worthy, not the
most needy, ought TO be selected for office.
Pecuniary expectations should be kept wholly
separate from political views.-A man may
enter upon Office with mixed motives ;-mn-
gled with sincere wish TO render public ser.
vice, may lie hid desire for personal dis,nc-
ton. aspirations after place in the worlds
thoughts; and if such ambition be first and
generous, scorning to barter principles for pop
ulari,y, let il not be too severely judged but
when, beyond a wish TO be useful and hope
TO be distinguished, an office-holder's views
lead him to regard his place as species Of
private property, that must be managed and
nnrsed along. as to yield him, year after
year, an afauent and permanent income-when.
TO retain it, he assumes as right, and 10 leave
ii he feels as an injus,ice-then are Influences
at work that leap sooner or later, TO political
prchigacy, and make government curse rath.
er than blessing. aud supply materials too
often and too successfully used by the aristoc-
raco of the Old World when they assail the
wisdom and rredic, the downfall Of The demo-
cratic institutions Of the New.
True i, is that the aborer is worthy Of his
hire, and that public employment should fur
ni,h fair snppor, in return for the services j.
demands; else the wealthy only coUld remain
in office. II is running into an aristocra;ic ex-
IRENE to demand public services. as those o;
the British Parliament are rendered. gratuitous-
~. But such an extreme need not be dreaded
here; it is not the tendency of this age, nor OF
this country. Witness the ease with which
The salaries Of the public officers are increased.
and the imposshili,y Of obtaining vote to d.
mnish them. II is exiravagance. and not par
ismony, which we require 10 oe on our guard.
Aud the extent Of my argument is this, and no
n,ore-,hat, though Office should support us,
while actually employed in its duties. we
should never depend unQY i as livelihood
ana mat, IT we would not be led into tempta-
ton, We should SO arrange matters at home
that we can give up its emolnments at mo-
ment's notice and retire, like Cincinnatus, con-
tented, TO our farms.
