When we were in Baltimore last week, Gov.
Hicks was ut the Fountain, and, though he was
none of our Governor, we felt bound TO see him,
If we could, and we did. He looks pretty well
for an Eastern-shorelnan, and wears bis new
dignity quite as gracefully as the Mock Duke in
Honsy.Noon. But the crowd of Ofice-seekers
that bCset hint was nliracolously large and
hungry-Iookiag-even TO famine. We may have
been mistaken, but we thought we recognized
the features, distorted somewhat by over anx-
iety, of several countymen Of our Own in the
crowd, and We asked ourselves as We turned
away, what can they be after: Officer Why,
we have heard them say thousand times-let
the Wild hunt for Office be anathuaa-lst Office
seek the man, not man the ofice-and now here
they are, a hundred miles or more from home,
,wirIg, smiling and scraping-for office! Pe.-
haps though this is only t.s new and patent
way by which office seeks the man in the
American arty. But then how very alike are
the Siamess twins!
