The following extracts from the Baltimore Repubi-

Wing party in Maryland, as well as everywhere else,
correspond with the professions just being so

Here we witness the admirable spectacle of the re-
lection of a Wing sppointee, by democratic Gov

John L. Robinson. ESQ.

The Wabash Standard whose editor is well acauaint-
ed with the gentleman whose name heads this para
graph, recommends him a suitable person to fill the
Office of Commissioner of the General Land Office.
Since the Standards article was published we have
that almost every democratic paper in the State has
spoken very favoraby of it; and we feel assured
that his appointment would be well and kindly receiv-
ed by the Western Democracy.
From the Standard
Indiana although the banner State of the Union
contra sting her present condition with that of 1870
will hardly expect to be represented in the Cabinet
Hitherto she had been content with the Commissioner
of the General Land Office, and her position geogra-
phcal and POLITICAL will surely ente her to supply
that Office still Ii requires great gift of prophecy
to PREDICT with certainty, the removal of the present
incumbent, Mr.. Blake. The vacancy which will &C.
cur his removal, will, as matter of course, be
supplied by citizen of own State, and we know
of one better qualified to fill it than John L. Rob-
nson OF Rush. In conversation with several promi-
nent democrats his name mentioned in connection
with that office. We know not whether Mr. Ribonsor
has any idea Of interesting himself in the matter OF
not whether he would accept the appointment If ten
dered to him; but we feel assured it would meet the
appreciation of the entire democracy of the State tc
him called to the station honorable in ITSELF anC
for which his superior business talents industry anc
strict integrity, eminenty qualify HIM. We dc
not speak in dsparagement of the abilities of Other
distinguished democrats but know of man in the
west whose appointment would give more genera
satisfaction He is young and vigorous, possessing
ample capacity, practical business habits, and occu
pies warm place In the hearts of all who know him
for his strict devotion to principle and his manly bear
ing partisan

Exc ims over exps sa2 267 455ss,52s 2sOI4252
The excess of imports over exports increased from
1S43 to 1874, more than one hundred per cent. The
immense balance against on the foreign trade of
l643 of this port erceeds the total rdtue Of imports
for 1S43. The enormous increase in the value of our
imports in single year, gives some idea of the
changes that take place In our commercial affairs
In one year the value of foreign manufactures entering
this port increased about seventy-ve per cent without
there being corresponding demand for the additional
supply.
Nov we should like to know how the High Pro-
tective Tariff Men in this State will account for the
above remarkable facts, They asserted that their
wonderful beneficial measure, to obviate entirely
the losses which they affirmed were consequent upon
the balance of trade against us and to effectuate
directly reverse state Of trade in our favor. The
people can see so far New York is concerned,
how much their arguments were worth. Experience
proves, it always has and always will prove, the
complete futility of their arguments, in this in
all other respects.

An AMERICAN DUKE-The Duke of Cantdmager,
the Spanish Minister to our Government, is
Philadelphian born. His father, the Marquis of Case
Irujo married the daughter of Gen. Mexican, about
fifty years ago. He is of noble" blood, but he
can't help it.
We cut the above from "Natve" paper OF Boston.
We should like know how much better citizen this
american Duke would be likely to make provided,
as is likely that he entertans all the peculiar notions
of men of noble blood, Notwithstanding he is g a

Spain itselfs Is a man likely to be horse because

We have heard it suggested, nevertheless, that Mr.

nal calls it, but will relinquish it for the purpose Of
gratifying the Democracy of Tippecanoe by serving
them in the next Legislature. For their sake and
that of the people generally, we hope we are not in
error, for want to greater proportion of men
of capacity in the House of Representatives next
winter, than the Wings were disposed to send to the

A BIBLE AT AUCTION. A seaman on board the
ship Huntress, from New York to Canton, fell from
the rigging and killed The contents of his chest
were put up at auction among the Sailors and with
them his Bible. The crew were profane set of men,
but when the Bible to be solo, their noble feeling
formed substitute, in some measure, for true
religious regard. The bidding went until the mate
checked it by telling them they had offered much
as proper, The owner had set before them pious
example, and it is probable that the seamen were
willing to pay respect to the fidelity which they might
have revied when they were reproVed by it-Eastern
paper.
"a substitute for true religious regard :" says the
writer. What the motive spirit but I" true rel-
gious regard 7" Nothing. The truth is, reckless
their conduct generally is there exists class of men
whose religious regard" or veneration is more Deep
more pure, self-sacrifsing, when it is called
into action; and none who would foster it more
deeply in their heart of hearts, under the neglect and
deprvations which sailors have been subjected
