A large and most enthusiastic meeting was held
10 spauldhg's District, Prince Georges County,
Maryland. on the 26th inst, with view Of ap.
pointing delegates to attend the Convention TO be
held in Marlboro, on the 29th, for the purpose of
nominating suitable candidates for the Legisa-
ture.
On motion of Mr.. Arnold, John Addison, Esq,
was called to the Chair, and William Nj. Maddox,
Esq, was appointed Secretary.
The meeting having been organized, the fol-
lowing gentlemen were nominated and unani-
mously elected delegates to attend said Conven-
ton, viz: John Addison, Samuel Arnold, b. w.
Young, William NJ Maddox, and ]. f. Naylor,
Esqs.
Having accomplished the object for which the
meeting was assembled, the Hon. J. NJ. nj. Causin
being loudly called for, arose, and delivered a
most thrilling and eloquent address. He animal
verted with great severity upon the pretended
claims of Messrs. Polk and Dallas, and drew forth
bursts of applause by his sparkling wit and with
ering sarcasm.
After discussing the tariff and its beneficial re-
suits, he concluded by calling ON all present to
keep their lamps burning and we'll trimmed for
the coming contest. The approaching Guberna-
torial election he contended was one of the great
est magnitude and Importance, not only to our
own beloved State but to the whole Union.
Maryland having already set such glorous ex-
ample, and given such a powerful impetus to the
energy and patriotism of other States by the re-
suit of her Congressional election, would it not
be notifying and truly humiiating to suffer her
to 60 by default, when we have the strength and
the bone and sinew of the country on our side
Such result cannot ensue and must not, and
again call upon you, said Mr.. c., to rally once
more in support Of those great principles which
have been advocated and sustained by the purest
patriots of the Revolution.
Let us rally and support the Gubernatorial
nomination-spare no effort or exertion on your
part to effect such glorious result, and you will
merit the thanks of every true patriot in the land.
Mr.C. having concluded, on motion, it was
RESOLVED, That copy of the proceedings of this
meeting be sent to the editors of the National
Intelligencer, the Wing Standard and the Mar
boro' Gazette, fer publication.
After which, the meeting adjourned.

Mr.. Stephens, in his speech on Saturday night,
referring to the ignorance which prevails in some
quarters in relation to the tariff and the gross
misrepresentation which had been INDUCED re-
spec,ing it, told an anecdote of Georgia back
woodsman, who, being out hunting one day, and
never having seen or heard of a steam car, APP
preached the railroad in The pine gades, and saw
car approaching. Horror struck, he took to his
heels and ran some two miles to the nearest
house, when, being asked what was the matter,
he replied, terror depicted on every feature, he
did not know, unless the abominable tariff had
broke loose !-Richmond Wing.

ACCIDENT Until we read the following arti-
Gle from the Exeter News Letter, we were at
loss TO account satisfactorily for Mr.. Poik's being
defeated so often for Governor in State of which
he is said TO be the " iavorite son. The whole
matter is now clear to us, however, as the
enthusiasm" of The party is plain and palpable !
The trouble with Mr. Polk now is, that he is not
altogether beyond the range of like accidents =

augusta Chronicle.
"The Governor of Tennessee holds his office
two years. Mr.. Polk was elected in 1899, and
was candidate for reelection in 1871, when one
of the merest accidents in the world prevented
his success. 1t appeared, on counting the votes,
that the other mans" pile was the largest; and
what is very extraordinary, the same accident
happened in 1913 / don't mention these crcum
stances as at all derogatory to Mr. Polk. have
never understood that his failure, either in lS4l
lS43, was owing to any want of exeron on
his part, or the part of his friends, but simply to
the want of votes We all know that some very
fine Offices have been lost in this way"

Mr.. Ingersol's unfortunate apology for Mr..
Dallas reminds us of an anecdote we have been
told of lawyer down South" who was called
upon to defend man for striking another upon
the head with hammer The case was an in
dlctment for assault and battery. The lawyer,
who has more gravity than Lord Coke had learn
ing, commenced his address to the jury, May it
please the court, and gentlemen Of the jury, the
Indictment against my client is for a serious as
sault and battery upon one of his nelghbors- the
wound he has inflicted is most serious one-and
but for the providence of God, it must have pro-
ven mor-' stop, sir" said the client, I'll be
ID if you don't hang me at this rate" The
lawyer took his seat, greatly confused, and more
dexterous limb of the law" was substituted in
his place. We would advise Mr. Dallas to imi-
itaie the skull-cracking client, and obtain new
counsel. The statute of limitations may save
him from the penitentary in this case, but it is
quite apparent that Mr.. lngersoll will do HIM no
good.
