Having, at very great expense, erected an Esiab-
llsiinent for the manufacture of AGRICULTURAL
IMPLEMENTS, MACHINERY and TOOLS on an
extensive scale, expressly to meet the wants of the
Farmers and Planters of the South and West would
therefore respectfully solicit their patronage
With our present facilities and the experience of
the past ten years, we feel confident being able 10
supply the demand for Farm Implements, MACHINERY
and Tools We therefore offer goods with con
ndenee, OF their superiority and prices that can moi
faIl To secure to Baltimore this branch of trade
As evidence OF the superiority of our goods we
publish tue following list of Premiums showing the
standing OF our implements and Machinery when in
competition with others and examined by competent
men, -
In 1913, lS49, 1851 and 1852, the MARYLAND State
agricultural Society, awarded to E. WHITMAN &
Gu the HIGHEST Premium for the largest and hes,
display OF the strongest and most useful Farm ImpIe
ments and Machinery.
In 1851 and 1852, the Mechanics Institute of Ma
ryland awarded to e. WHITMAN & Co heavy Com
MEDALS, for the largest and best display fusefu I'M
Pements And Ill addition to the above we have re-
celved Special Premiums on Implements too numer-
Gus to mention IN detail but in an amounting to more
than $1,000, which is three times the amount received
by any other exhibitor of Agricultural implements
At the above named Exhibitions, implements were
exhibited by nearly every manufacturer i'm the co-
try, and the decision OF those Societies may well be
considered as the highest authority that can be given
of the superiority of our Implements. 80
We particularly request the attention of Farmers
Planters and Dealers, to our stock, before making
terms.

Sentences from Horace.

No one is born without vices, and he
Is the best man who is encountered with
the least.
1t is but fair that he who entreats a
pardon for his faults, should be ready to
grant one in his turn.
As soon as age shall have strengthened
your limbs and mind, you may swim
without cork.
1t is of no consequence of what parents
any man Is born, so that he be a man of
merit.
Let there be some end to your search
ing after riches, and since you have more
than enough, be in less dread of poverty.
All, but especially the covetous, think
their condition the hardest.
He who is always in hurry to be
wealthy and immersed in the study OF
augmenting his fortune, has lost the arms
of Reason and deserted the post of Virtue.
The friendship of great men is a laud-
able acquisition, but their favors are ever
TO be solicited with modesty and caution.
Death is the ultimate boundary of
human matters.

DAILY EVENING STAR.
A Fourth Of July Dream

One sultry summer day. having fallen
into doze over @ Plutarch's Lives" me-
thought was suddenly transported to
the regions of the dead, where, as | wan
dered about seeking some of nv old
friends, my attention was suddenly ar
rested by loud clamor of voices that
seemed to come from persons engaged in
hot contention, and attracted the atten-
ton OF Rhodomanthus, who presided over
the Supreme Court in that unexplorcd
region. On lnquiring the cause of this
disturbance, he was informed that it orr
glnated IN dispute between Alexander
the Great, julius Caesar, Tamerlane, Ma
poleon Bonaparte, as to which was the
greatest hero and conqueror. The Judge
directed them all to be called before him,
and ordered them to set forth their pre-
tensions in as few words as possible.
81, said Julius Caesar, g conquered
Gaul and Britain, and finally laid all
Italy at my feet"
g And |, said Tamerlane, q conquered
ASA, and shut up the representative of
the Prophet in an iron cage"
q And |, said Nadir Schah, con-
quered Persia, Armenia and Hindoostan. :"
g And L., said Napoleon, q conquered
Italy, Germany and Prussia, laid Europe
at my feet, and subjected France to my
sway
g And |" said Alexander, * conquered
the world"
g Very well, said the judge. You
are all great conquerors, but will show
you greater"
Accordingly he beckoned to a tall, ma
jestic figure, standing apart, contempla-
ting the scene with a calm indifference,
who advanced, and stood erect before the
great Judge of mankind
Here" exclaimed Rhodomanthus,
Here is the cOnquerer, greater than the
desolators of nations, and the subiugators
of Empires, who, after hiving freedom to
his country, and emancipating world,
overcame his ambition and conquered
himself" 1t was Washington.-Pen

RACING IN ENGLAND.-A correspondent
writing from London, on the 18th of June,
says; Il have been fortunate enough to
be present at two of the greatest racing
meetings that take place in the English
year-the Derby day" at EPSON, and
the % Emperor of Russia's Cup dayn at
Ascot. The former is the race Of England.
Parliament always adjourns over on that
day, and everybody goes who can posi-
bly, manage it. This year it is an un,lsu-
ally brilliant meeting. 1t was estimated
that there were over four hundred thou
sand people on the course, and between
swenty and thirty horses started for the
Derby stakes. At Ascot on the 8 Cup
day. the crowd was more select and aris-
tOcratic. But there was an immense
number there. The Queen was present,
and had good stare at her. She looked
savagely sour all day-so much so, that
reckon she must have bet on the wrong
horse #j' ~ 'tT -<l1E

An Exquisite Story by Lamartine.

In the tribe of Nesgdeh, there was a
horse, whose fame was spread far and near,
and Bedouin of another tribe, by name
Daher, desired extremely to possess it.
Having offered in vain for it his camels
and his whole wealth, he hit at length
upon the following device, by which he
hoped to gain the object of his desire. He
resolved to stain his face with the Juice of
an herb, to clothe himself in rags, to tie
his legs and neck together, so as to ap-
pear like lame beggar. Thus equipped
he went to wait for Naber, the owner of
the horse, who he knew was to pass that
way. When he saw Naber approaching
on his beautiful steed he cried out in a
weak voice, s. L am poor stranger for
three days | have been unable to move
from this spot to seek for food. | am
dying, help me and heaven will reward
YOU The Bedouin kindly offered to
take him up on his horse and carry him
home but the rogue replied, Il cannot
rise; | have no strength Left Naber
touched with pity, dismounted, led his
horse to the spot, and, with great diff
Guilty, set the seeming beggar On his back
But no sooner did Daher feel himself in
the saddle, than he set spurs to the horse,
and galloped off, calling out as he did so,
% 1t is |, Daher. | have got the horse,
and am off with it"
Naber called after him to stop and list
en-. Certain of not being pursued, he
turned, and halted at short distance from
Naber, who was armed with spear
g You have taken my horse" said the
latter. ''Since heaven has willed it,
wish you joy of it but do conjure you
never to tell any one how you obtained
it, And why not % said Daher.-
Because, said the noble Arab, " another
man might be really ill, and men would
fear to help him. You would be the cause
of many refusing to perform an act of
charity, for fear of being duped as l have
been" Struck with shame at these
words, Daher was silent for moment,
then springing from the horse, returned
it to its owner, embracing him. Naber
made him accompany him to his tent.
where they spent few days together, and
became fast friends for life.
