81 ~ The Republican says that the
Breckinridge Convention was larger than
the 4th of July convention. It is evident
that the editor of that little concern has
abandoned all pretense of truthfulaess.
Stephens and Rinehart thought the man
who could tell the most untruths was the
best editor, and Longgley is following
their footsteps. 80 &

Our Candidate for Congress.

JAMES R. MORRIS is too we'll known to
our readers to require any eulogist or
biographer to say who he is or what he is.
He has labored more for the Democratic
party, not only in the county and district
but at various places throughout the State,
than any man of his age east of the
Muskinghm. He was always as willing
to address little group Of faithful Dem
ocrats at a country school house, as to
speak to great mass meetings in the larger
towns and cities. Yet Notwithstanding
that he has been the most formidable ad,
versary the opposition have had for many
years, the more candid of them all ac~
knowledge Morris to be one of the fairest
and most honest and uprigh. politicians
they have ever known.
His ability is conceded by all parties;
and the industry and fidelity with which
he has served in every official position
which he has heretofore held, are abun.
dant evidence that he will faithfully and
diligently attend to the interests of the
people, when elected to Congress.
If he is better adapted for one branch
than another of the public affairs it is in
the financial departments. Here too is
where the greatest deficiency Of laborers
exists in Congress. A skilful 6Dancier is
always one of the most useful members.
Mr.. Morris will undoubtedly be elected,
and he will just as undoubtedly be one oI
the best Congressmen ever sent from this
district.

The REBEL AND THE PRINcE.-When the old
rebel Of '76, Ralph Farnham, the last survivor
of Bunker Hill, was introduced to the Prince
of Wales, at Boston, the other day, the great
grandson of the sovereign against whom he
fought received him with much kindness and
some curiosity. The old man was 80 we'll
pleased with his manner that he shrewdly re-
marked, If princes we're always to treat
body 80, there would be less wars" A very
truthful observation that of the old rebel; and
perhaps he thought at the time that If George
the Third had treated the colonists with less in
justice there might have been two bloody wars
and two magnificent victories the less. But
we might add that if princes travelled more
and saw more Of the people it might have the
same effect in depressing the spirit Of interna-
tonal conflict Wars, it is said, are waged to
keep princes on their thrones. To maintain or
create dynasties is the object of almost every
war; and If the rulers and people Of different
nations understood each other better there
would be less necessity for sanguinary and
devastating conflicts. The Prince of Wales now
enjoys an advantage over any of his predeces-
sors in this respect, and we have no doubt that
the result will be manifested in the future policy
of England, should be ever come to the throne.
If it is not his travels will have produced very
little fruit

uLAs the autumnal tnts are now very rich and
varied With such material in abundance, it
will be seen that, with the aid Of a landscape
artist to open a vista here, fill out group
there, and lead the roads and paths to points Of
Interest, Baltimore may, in year or 80, have
O park unequalled in the world. The work is
under the superintendent Of Howard Daniels,
of New York.
Thus 1t will be seen that the Baltimoreans
have been so fortunate as to find park ready
made to their hands, and one which has in
great abundance what the Central Park most
needs, to wit: shade trees. Somebody has
klundered in our Park transplanting large
trees which have since died, in consequence, 1t
il alleged, of the undtness of the soil in which
they were placed.
However, our own disappointment does not
prevent us from congratulating the people of
Baltimore upon their success. Baltimore seems
endeavoring to clear her reputation from the
stains it has received from rowdy political
clubs. Latterly new police was organized,
and the mob has been kept In good order
The Monumental City is going ahead, its rail-
way facilities have improved its trade wonder
fully, and Baltimore bids fair at no distant
day, to outstrip Philadelphia. The new park
will do more than the police in preserving pub
lie order, and the gentlemen who have been
instrumental in giving it to the people deserve
greater honor than if they had won battle.
