MARYLAND Election.

The returns, according to the Baltimore Sun,
shew Democratic majority in Maryland, out
side of Baltimore, of 2,256. In 1857 it was
l,lsO.
The Democrats have carried both branches
Of the Legislature for the first time in the his
tory Of Maryland. Their majority on joint
ballot will be 16, insuring the election of a
Democratic U. s. Senator-Mr. Pearce's term
expiring. In the Senate the Democrats will
have IL members, and the Americans 10. In
the House the Democrats will have 45, and the
Americans 20. The last Legislature stood
80 Democrats and 40 Americans in the House,
and 7 Democrats and Is Americans in the SEN
ate.
The Democrats have just constitutional
majority in the Senate. as it requires IL votes
10 that body TO pass bill. 1t is hoped some
'hing will be done to put an end to the outra'
ees which are annually perpetrated upon Inno'
cent citizens at the elections in Baltimore.
The Congressional delegation will stand al
1t did before. In the First District, James A
Stewart (Dem.) is elected by majority of 45S
lu 1857 it was SO. La the Second District
Webster (Am.) is elected BY ga. In 1857
was 1866. In the Third District, ]. M. Harri
(Am) is elected, in Baltimore. BY 5,472. II
1857 it was 3,s4l. Ia the Fourth District, Il
Winter Davis (Am.) is elected. In the Fiji
District. Jacob M. Kunkle (Dem.) is elected b
1875 majority. In 1857 it was l69. ln tn
Sixth District, Col. Geo. w. Hughes (Dem)
elected by Oil majority. 10 1857, Gen. Bowie
sDem-) had 1885 nsjority.
In Baltimore the Americans polled l7,60
votes, and the Democrats about $500.

Gen. Riley on Temperance.

Gen. Riley, the noted temperance lecturer,
will deliver two Lectures in this town, on this
Thursday, at Wards Hall-commencng re-
spectively at 2 o'cock in the afternoon, and
o'clock in the evening. He lectured here a
week or two since to the evident satisfaction OF
bis audience, at whose request he appears
again among US TO discourse upon the great evil
Of lntemperance. Gen. Riley, though not a
great lecturer, is one of the most forcble in the
land, illustrating his points with remarkable
clearness, taking incidents and examples famil-
lar to everyone, and yet so striking in proof
that they cannot be gainsayed. His arguments
IN regard to self-interest, showing the disad-
vantage of the liquor traffic-to the merchant,
The mechanic, the physician, and those of every
other branch of trade-are so conclusive as to
leave wonder on the mind how any man, after
seeing the evil that the traffic inficts upon him
personally, can be longer in favor of dram
drinEing. We commend all who are skeptical
or otherwise on the subject to 60 and hear him..
Recollect ths time-2 o'clock in the afternoon,
aud o'clock in the evening.

THE London NeWs of the Goth ult., charac.
terizes the war undertaken by Spain against
Morocco as gratuitous and indefensble. 1t
AYERS that there is more than a colusive un.
derstandng between France and Spain on this
subject; and the British Government, whose
Mediterranean interests are involved in any
war of territorial aggrandisement along the
Straits of Gibraltar, finds itself in the aIterna-
tive Of either calmly watching the progress of
the Spanish arms, or of forcibly intervening be-
tween the belIigerents, now that its represen-
tations have been set at defiance.

Profitable RaScaIity.

! Paris letter states that discovery was re-
no little interest in commercial circles. For
some time a we'll dressed individual had been
actively engaged in pawning, at the different
Offices of the Monte di Pete, various ingots or
bars of silver, which were accepted after the
usual test, and then sent to the general depot
of pledges, and again verified, with similar re-
suits. Their number became so numerous,
however, after while, that suspicion was ex-
cited, the more especially as none of them were
ever redeemed. and a number of specimens
were sent to the mint to be assayed. Here it
was found that the so-called silver was q ficti-
tious metal, composed of antimony, pewter,
lead, &c. These substances were SO dexter
ously combined as to deceive the best judges,
and the amount of metal which would be worth,
in silver, nearly two hundred dollars of our
money, was found to represent, in reality, a
value of less than fifty cents. The individual
who deposited them at the pawn Offices was ar
rested, when he declared that his fortune must
be made, as he was the author of discovery
destined to accomplish brilliant success. In
this, however, he will be disappointed, as the
most profitable result of his discovery will pro-
baby be few years board and lodging at the
expense of the State. 1t seems that the COM
position employed SO culpably and stupidity, may
be used in the manufacture of slverware with
great advantage, and at an immense reduction
n price.

The Democrats have a working majority in
both branches of the Maryland Legislature,
which secures the election of a Democratic
United States Senator. 1t is expected that
this Legislature will pass laws providing for
the registry of voters; for the division of the
Wards of Baltimore into precincts, as is the
case in Philadelphia; for the suppression of
lotteries, which are regarded as great engine
of political corruption, and for an entire and
radical change in the police system, taking it
out Of the hands of the Mayor, and modelling it
somewhat on the plan of the Metropolitan Po-
lice force of New York city. Such reforms, ii
is thought, will re- establish the supremacy Of
the law. and render impossible the recurrence
of the disgraceful scenes witnessed at the last
election. The rejection of the Senator and
Delegates to the Legislature, for whom a ma
jority of votes were returned on "Wednesday
last, is considered certain.
