MARYLAND REFORM CONFERENCE.-The Balti-
more Patriot makes the following remarks in re-
ference to the recent action, rather inacion Of
the State convention sitting at Annapolis:
eft is supposed that the convention now in SEES
sion in Annapolis to form new constitution for
the State of Maryland may get through with their
work by the first of April II is feared that if they
do not il will be impossible to keep quorum at
Annapolis after that day. There ia good reason for
this fear. for by the report of the proceedings yes
the one hundred and three members who compose
the convention then present, just quorum and
one to spare.
Z" But if the convention is to adjourn the first
of next month, they must make haste with the
work yet before it, or they will not get through
with itcortainly, if they do not go faster in the
two weeks that remain Of the month of March than
they have in the four months that passed since
they first met, they will not get through with their
work.
"'We know not why it is, or how il is,' to use
the words of Mr.. Webster on another occasion,
'but it is there is spirit Of Indifference among
the people in all parts of the State as to what the
convention at Annapolis will do will not do,
which can hardly be rcconciled with the deep in.
terest that every citizen has in the fundamental
laws of the State. Nobody seems to know what
the convention has done, and almost every one
to be careless of what they will do. Whether
this forebodes the rejection the adoption of the
new constitution, it may be too early to assume.
When the convention has done its work-if, in
deed it shall ever get done, ia doubtful for
suppose that majority Of the convention will never
be able to agree upon any constitutional may not
be difficult to form opinion to its fate, the
vote of the people, to which it is to be subjected"

A Geographic despatch from New Orleans,
received at the War Department, announces
the death of Brevet Major General GEORGE M.
BRooKE, who died at San Antonio, Texas,
while in the command of the eighth military
department, and engaged in planning an expe-
dition against the Indians on our southwestern
frontier. The IntelHgencer, of this city, pub
fishes the following particulars Of the military
history of this distinguished officer:
General Brooke entered the army, from vir
ginia, on the third of May. 1908, First Licuten
ant in the 9Th infantry. He was promoted to the
rank Of Captain the lat of May, 1910; to that of
Major Of the 4th infantry in 1914; to that of
Lieutenant Colonel same regiment March !, 1919;
and in July, 1881, to the rank of Colonel in the 5h
infantry. His first brevet was that Of Lieutenant
Colonel, August Is, 1914, for gallant conduct in
the defence of Fort Erie his second that of
Colonel, September II, 1914, for distinguished
and mertorious services in the sortie from Fort
Erie He was made Brevet Bngadicr General
September II. 1924, for en years. faithful service
as Colonel; and he was brevetted Major Gene
raj May 30, lS4S, 'for meritorious conduct, par
tcularly in the performance of his duties in the
prosecution of the war with Mexico.
"Fort Brooke, at Tampa Bay, was established
by him, and received his name, in 1924, where he
stationed for number of years."

The AUsrRo -HUNoARIAN CoRREsPoNDENcE.-
The diplomatic correspondence between the United
States and Austria, on the subject Of Mr.. Dudley
Mann's mission to Hungary, has been closed in
friendly manner by an interchange of notes be-
tween Mr.. Webster and the Austrian Minister at
Washington. MIR. Husemann's note indicates that
the Austrian court has become quito satisfied that
nothing is to be gained to the honor or credit of
that power by a continuance of the controversy.
The Imperial government, having made compc-
tent show Of wounded dignity, Just enough TO save
appearances, cautiously abstains from making too
grave q matter of the sympathy which has been
felt for the Hungarians in this country, and is pru
IDENTIFY willing to drop the subject Mr. Hulse-
mann's note civilIy bows the whole matter out of
court and so the strife 10 ended. Austria her
PRIDE and gets off with lesson that may be
full when she feels tempted TO raise political ques-
tons which may lead TO tho ripping up of old so-
ries.
Mr. webster's rejoinder TO the Austrian note is
firm and national in its tone, yet courteous and
dignifed. He puts the whole matter upon the
ground where every American would desire to see
Il rest-the principle of non interference in foreign
politics, yet of equal justice towards oil nations,
whether strong or weak, old young, prosperous
or INTERCHANGEABLE leading principle Of that policy
which would withhold US from rash entanglements
with other powers, but which Mt the time will
justify the recognition of the political rights of all
communities that achieve their national indc-
pcndence with justice and maintain II with discrc-
iion. This principle has been manfully asserted
by Mr.. Webster, and the conclusion Of his corre-
spondence with the representative Of the Austrian
empire stamps ii as the unchanging feature Of the
international policy of the United States.

Death OF John 8. skinner.

Our Baltimore correspondent sent US word
last night, as will be seen by reference to his
letter in another column, that most melan-
choly accident had befallen JOHN S. SKINNER,
esq.,, the venerable editor of the american Far
mer, and of the Plough, Loom, and .Ancil, and
a telegraphic despatch, received at a later hour,
informed us that he had died in consequence of
the injuries which he received. Mr.. SKINNER
was well known to the country as an able polit-
ical and agricultural writer, and gentleman Of
untiring industry and great benevolence of char
acter. Mr.. SKINNER was for many years post
master of Baltimore, and subsequently, we be-
lieve, Assistant Postmaster General

Hos. s. F. yIsToN.-Thc Athens Messenger, in
noticing the retirement of Hon. s. F. Vinton from
Congress- says he has represented the 18th district
in the House Representatives for t,oenfy years.
and concludes with the very just remark that
throp.
Whatever partisans may say, no man who has
any pretensions to intelligence will deny that Mr..
Vinton has filled the post of Representative with
eminent ability and that his presence in the House
has been of great advantage to the nation. No
man had more influence there. His high personal
character, his pure integrity. his freedom from all
small ware, clap-traps, and humbuggery, and his
thorough acquaintance with the details of legisla
tion and the history of what had been done before,
all these made him universally respected. His re-
tiremcnt is national loss. Ohio has been honorcd
by her representation in Congress by none more SO
than in that of Mr.. Vinton.

INDIAN OUTRAGE AT Council GRovE.-A few
weeks ago a telegraphic despatch informed us of
an outrage committed by the Indians at Council
Grove. We have now more correct information.
II turns out to be thus: The Sac Indians stole from
the station number of horscs and mules, kept at
that post for relays to the Santa Fe mail. A de-
ness of the season, and the small number of men,
they succeeded in capturing some of the stolen
animals, and brought into the fort some of the
principal men of the nation hostages for the de-
livery of the remainder of the stolen property.
They are detained at Fort Leavenworth Il is be-
lieved that the horses and mules stolen, and
not yet recovered, have been transferred to the
Usage Indians. In any event. this capturing and
holding of the chief men of the Indians in the vi
cinty of the offence responsible, is most likely to
break up their thievish propensities. In stealing
and carrying away the animals no conflict en-
sued, and no one at the station injured. The
theft was not known until some time after its oc-
currence.-St. Louis Republican.
