and one Invaluable to every possessor Of the
Code. .E
The Importance of the legislation of the late se.-
sions of the Legislature aecting it does, the tn
terests oeue,y man in the State, renders it matter
of the greatest moment to each individual, to
have in a convenient and accessible form the
Acts of Assembly, and 1t is scarcely less so to
have embodied, in the same volume, the Impor-
tant Resolutions which enunciate the policy of
the State in the present crisis while it will prove
a matter of no slight moment to individuals and
corporations, thus to have preserved in a perma-
nent form, the Acts on which their rights and
interests may depend.
By continuing the publication of the work, as
we propose, it is believed that the Bar of Mary
land will have the Statute Law of the State in a
form as convenient and accessible as that of any
State in the Union.

Allen county, and here are assembled all

While It is true that we have reliable re-
ports Of suffering and destitution in q part
Of the rebel army, tits nevertheless safe
70 say that taken collectively, the rebel
military strength was never greater than
now. The conscription has done its work,
and the bone and muscle Of the South is in
tbs army. The recent raidof Stuart into
Psnnsylvania has furnished the rebel
cavalry Of the East with fresh horses, to-
gslhsr with forage enough to keep them for
months. The expedition of Bragg in Ken
tueky has done the same good Office for
ths rebel army Of the West and here, too,
the list Of squisitions includes recruits for
tie army, as we'll as all kinds Of stores
which we're 10 be found in tho-oities-~zd
aSWns visited by the rebef-uFmy.--M Mean
while, large quantities Of stores have been
AHMED to the rsBels from baltimore snd
lover Maryland. Numerous 758els have
run the blockade with stores, ordnance,
guns and ammunition from England.
The sloWness Of our armies under Nc
CISlIAn and Buell., has given time to work
I'D all their elements Of strength to the
sdVsntage Of the enemy. Every day Of
delay has been an advantage to them; for
Of late every week has increased their
strength. Wehave, therefore, to fight no
ipsignihcant foe, but one strong, fierce
and desperate. The decisive battles areyet
10 come; the rebellion is yet to be crushed.
That we shall ultimately do this, no true
lOyalist viii doubt, for if the strength we
have in the field is not enough, more will
%. What is demanded is action, energy,
and vigorous war. Let incOmpeteAts, Of
high or low degree, be punished or weeded
cut and let determined, fighting generals
lad on our brave impatient soldiers
This, and this only win bring an honorable
peace.

That must have been a "gsy old time
which the Democracy of Cook county, Hi
nOis, "enjOyed" at their county COnven,
ton on Saturday last. The Tribune has Q
decidedly graphic account Of the proceed
iugs. First, the space in the Court room
allotted to the delegates was so filed with
candidates that there was no room for the
former. The candidates were removed
half dozen times, but as many times
crowded back again. As the sergeant-at-
arms was urging them out Of the right
doorway in the railing, they moved in
again at the cleft entrance" like the hall
dozen "supes" at the theater, who, by
running behind the scenes keep up con-
tinual file across the stage, and SO cause
small boys to wonder where such a vast
number comes from. At length a balloi
was had for sheriff, amid noise and con-
fusion which would have done credit to a
frst-class Bedlsm. Two ballots were had
while shouts and curses Of the men, rap
ping and humping Of the Chairman, and
yeIping OF small dog, mace up the accom-
paniment of the voting. One man voted
four times, while three others openly pro
claimed that money had been offered to
them for their votes. After these two bal
lots delegate moved to take up new man
Of the result the Tribune says:
81 The din became indescribable. No pen
can do Justice TO it. Fists and canes and
hats were waving in the air. Yells, hoBls,
shouts and Kisses resOunded in every part
of the room. The mild little man in the
chair was mechanically pounding his ink
bottle with no apparent result except to
add to the din: The little yellow dog was
barking at the top of his voice. Men mount
ed table and chairs, gesticulated insanely
and made insudible speeches. Our reporter
caught the spirit Of the scene and pounded
Justify with a copy Of the Statues in one
hand and delegates cane in the other
Some one threw the little yellow dog at him,
however, and compelled him to desist."
Then sheaham, one Of the candidates,
offered te withdraw if the other candidate,
Rose, would do the same. Rose declined to
do it, and the report says:
"If all the Babylonian pOlygIots had
been present, and commenced yelling in
their Tarions tongues, they could not have
equalled the scene which ensued. The
Sheahan delegates we're furious to mad
ness, and an indiscriminate fight loomed
up, near at hand. Large numbers Of dele
gates retired disgusted- The chair threat
ened to leave. The little yellow dog
hoWled worse than ever, and a grand
scrimmsge was only prevented by Rose
getting up and Withdrawing his name
This proved like oil upon the angry wa
ters, as far as noise. was concerned. The
Convention then nominated Charles Walsh
for Sheriff by a ViVa Voee vote"
On the whole, we think the scene may
have been lively one.

The Rebel. Not RerrentInr south

A Washington dispatch to the Times says
that the frequent reports that we have had
for several weeks from refugees, deserters
and correspondents in the front, that Lee
and his army we're evacuating Winchester,
and falling back to StsuntOn or Richmond
are now known to have originated in the
heavy movements in that direction Of the
cattle, negroes and army supplies, with
the cannon captured at Harper's Ferry,
which the enemy have been industriously
gathering up and sending to Richmond for
future use, under the very noses Of our
army of observation on the Upper Potomac.

We have given the circumstances Of the
capture and destruction by an American
vessel Of an English schooner, the Blanche,
in Spanish waters, of Havana, which was
likely to cause international difficulty. A
Havana letter Of October 2Oth, says that
the journals and people there are much
excited overit. The Blanche claims damages
to the amount Of 500, 900 for vessel, cargo
and damage suffered by the crew." The
charges are e1Orbitant but our Govern
ment will probably be obliged to negotiate
for settlement Of the difficulty.

ne PIaIu Dealers change of Base.

A Columbus dispatch to the Cincinnati
Gazette says that "the Cleveland Plain
Dealer has passed into the hands of but
tsrnut editor, which accounts for its late
Gummerset.n The inference is natural,
but swithout foundation" At least, no
change has been made, unless within twen-
ty-four hours, Of editors Of that versatile
sheet. The same ilepirsd pen that was de-
liVSred Of ineomprehensible harangues in
favor Of the Union movement gave to the
world exultant shouts over the success Of
he butternut ticket. Nor should this fact
surprise anybody. Any man who could
b on AL sides and ends Of q question at
oRee, (as in the extract quoted yesterday
eopld surely have no difficulty in changing
ks base between two Of the daily Issues Of

Owing to the heavy monthly expenses
this noble society has been subjected to,
necessarily incident toits extensive opera
Hons, its treasury we regret to say is at a
ioW ebb The ladies Of the Society, since
Iis organization, have sorted, marked,
packed and shipped, over 5000 boxes and
barrels Of hospital supplies. They have
succeeded 50 far in paying their freight
bills, room rent drayage, stationery and
printers biIla, and for the boxes, and barrels,
&C., through the hberslity Of the friends
Of the soldiers. But now they have got
into position when it becomes necessary
to make an effort to raise larger fund
than they have heretofore had, especially
when it is considered that the exigen-
eieS ofthe coming year viii be such that it
viii require more extended operations on
The part Of the Society than heretofore to
meet the wants Of our sick and wounded.
II has been suggested to the ladies Of the
society by several Of our principal eiti-
sens, that they invite the gentlemen of
the city to become honorary members Of
d Sbs society and pay e monthly fee Of one
dsllar. It is thought that by this plan
q. permanent and reliable income can
Be secured, upon which the society can de-
pgHd - pay It's monthIy InCIdenJaI expeH-
sss. This suggestion has been adopted,
and books are now opened for signatures
AZ the Aid room, and gentlemen are invited
70 oin and thus fellowship with the ladies'
in his great and humane work Of reliev-
ing the distresses of our gallant sick and
wounded soldiers. A committee Of ladies,
The names Of whom win be announced at
the proper time, will wait upon our bus
insss men for the purpose Of receiving
- their names and membership fees.
There are several hundred gentlemen in
this city who viii be glad to become hon
orary members of the Soldiers Aid Society,
and Of course the appeal of that Society
for peeuniary assistance, will not go un-
hseded. It is not necessary for US to urge
the matter any more than merely TO men
dOnit. If the simple fact that the cause
fsrWhich our gallant fellows are fighting
g orr cause, and that our own sons, broth
ers and friends, may be lying sick or
wounded in hospitals, is not sufficient to
bring liberal response, then anything we
can say will not influence the matter.

Ul56si.la5aSSisI5 8. 5..I.sgtsh to the Govern.



The peace Dss have made 9 great
handle against the Administration by
charging that great crowds Of cOntTabands
were fleeing to the North, to be supported
st the expense Of the Government, their
subsistence, therefore, coming out of the
pockets Of the people. Ithas been reported
BY these disturbers of the public conf
denee that no less than 10000 contrabands
we're subsisted and clothed at Government
expense. To give the lie to all such charg-
es, Mr.. D. B. Nichols, Superintendent of
Contrabands st Washington, has addressed
letter to Gov. Yates, relating the facts in the
case. On the 18th of June Mr.. Nichols
was appointed to his present position. At
that time there were about 400 contra
bands in the quarters, no less than 1900
having since that time passed through his
hands. OF this number all but 675 have
gone out to work for themselves, for pri-
vate families, or for the Government. Of
this 676, 12O were sent there from the en-
campments about Washington, for medi-
cal treatment. Twenty more are employed
at forty cents & day in the service of the
camp. Besides these, quite number of
the remainder go out during the day to
wash for the sick soldiers at the hospitals,
and return to their families at night in
the camp. This leaves a small balance of
those too old and inhrm for profitable la
Dor, or too young to go to service. And
even the mothers, with their large and de-
pendent families, have husbands in the
army or navy, and have been sent for pro-
v00UTUn anu sustenance, WINE tneIr nus
bands are employed by our army.
As for clothing, the Government has not
supplied any, even blankets, except in a
very few cases. The destitute have been
supplied by Northern benevolent assOcia-
tiOns.
Again, the bugbesr of " Overrunning the
North with niggers" has been held up in
terrOrsm by designing politicians. That
this is without any foundation, the fact
that while liberal offers are made to these
contrabSnd, to come to the North to work,
not one in hundred is willing to do SO,
will show. The letter Of Mr.. Nichols closes
as follows;
"No, instead Of these people being q
drug on the hands of the Government ten
could be to-day employed, while we have
but one to furnish"

Instances like the following throw light
gpon the disputed question as to the rela-
i've proportion of Democrats and Republi-
