Poor Maryland!

They have had grand ball lately in
Richmond, at which Miss Hetty Carey, one
of the pretty daughters of Mr.. Wilson Carey
prominent secessionist teacher of Balti-
more figured most conspcuously The story
goes that she appeared at the ball dressed as
captive slave, with her hands tied at the
wrists, and bearing the shield of Maryland
on her bosom; Indicating thereby the chains
by which this State is kept in the Union.
jeff. Davis came forward during the evening
and released her manacled hands by UNITY
ing the cords that bound her wrists, and
thus, in the person of the lovely Miss Hetty
Carey, freed Maryland from her bondage to
Federal power, amid the stormy applause of
the company. Miss Carey and one of her
sisters are earning a livelihood as clerks in
the Rebel administration This event, it is
said, has created the most intense delight
and sympathy in the upper crust of seccs-
siondom at Baltimore.

Harper's Ferry and the National
Works.

aN A petition has been presented to Congress
from some of the citizens of Harper's Ferry
for the restoration OF the Public Works.
"A fter their capture and destruction no one
expected their restoration, and now we think
all hope is vain. Their loss to that section
of Virginia will be severely felt, but all must
see that it is one of the results of secession.
Ihs Public Works were source of great
q profit not to Harper's Ferry only but to the
surrounding con munity. Hundreds of work.
men paid regularly in gold aud silver gave
cash system to business from which tie mer-
chant and farmer realized an abundant har-
vest. But the mine has been destroyed, and
the workmen discharged and the ordinary
sources of prosperity are now left alone.

The Removal Of the Hospitals.

Our Hospitals are rapidly diminishing. A
number have already been emptied, and
rooms crowded but few weeks ago. are
now vacant or nearly vacant. The policy is
a good one, both for the soldiers themselves
and for our citizens as the dense part of a
city is the worst place for hospital espe-
cially during the warm weather. The winter
of the beginning of the year 1862 will long
be remembered. Here hundreds stricken
down by disease in the camp Or in the ex-
posed campaign, have languished far from
friends and home. Many heart has beat
in sadness, and many a fevered brow throbbed
in pain. What longings for friends and
home have been felt. Many have entered
the abodes of disease, only to be borne away
to the soldiers lonely burial. Our region
has not been the scene of great battle but
remem boring the sad scenes of the winter,
and seeing the desoation of actual war in
other places, our ardent prayer is for the
speedy return of peace, harmony and ma
tional unity. a}a

43 land?

Just what we make it, Nothing more
and nothing less. If we keep on praying to
Hercules to help us, leaving eur wagon stick
ing in the mud without putting our shoulders
to the wheel, it will stick there always.
Many take it for granted that we are ruined
by the war,-that nothing can be done, and
walk about waiting for something to turn
up"
Our case is not as bad as we make it out
to be. Part of last year. when deprived of
our public works, we really suffered, but
now we have every element that we had be-
fore the war. Last winter more money came
and remained here, than would have been
brought by the full operation of railroad or
canal. What we need is energy and enter
prise to do something for ourselves instead
of depending on others.

WRECKS OF HUMANITY.
WHY SHOULD THEY SINK E?

The excitement of "the chase" has always
been supposed to have healthful tendency;
but there is kind of chase which breaks
down the constitution, debilitates the frame,
and shortens life. We mean the headlong,
unintermitting hunt after "the almighty
dollar which is the great business charac-
teristic of the present day. 1t begets other
evils unnecessary to name) which precipi-
tate the fate of thousands. There is, how
ever. a possibility of recovery from the pros
tration produced by these causes, long after
their victim has ceased to hope for it. If
we are rightly informed. the most astonish-
ing cures of what is called general weakness
and debility, which have ever been known
in this country, have been effected through
the agency of Doctor HoLLowAy's inestima-
BILE remedies. Mere skeletons of men, out
OF whom the very principle of vitality
seemed to have been drained, have been re-
stored to health and vigor by the operation
of the Pills and of the Ointment, in cases
of paralysis, rheumatism, &C., we hear an
equally favorable account. If men ,cH
break down their energies by over exertion
if in their anxiety to Ego ahead" they
'oiH override the most precious Of Gods
blessings, health-it is well they should

DIED.


Departed this life, on Thursday, the 17t
inst, Mrs. PRISCILLA, consort of j. N. NJ
HeHdrickson, aged 81 years and 10 months
leaving disconsolate husband, six small
children aud large circle of relatives and
friends to mourn their loss.
Mrs. II. had been for more than twenty
years zeal Gus and consistent member of the
Lutheran Church. and although the sum-
mons of death came suddenly she was pre-
pared, and without a murmur or complaint
swcetly fell asleep in Jesus, in whom she
trusted.
How sweet is the season of rest,
When lifes weary journey is done:
The blush that spreads over the west,
The last lingering rays Of the SIN.
Though dreary the empire of night
We soon shall emerge from its gloom,
And see immortality's light
Arise from the shades Of the tomb.
Then welcome the last rendng sigh,
When these aching heart-strings shall
break:
When death shall extingush these eyes
And moisten with dew the pale cheek.
No terror the prospect begets,
We are not mortality's slaves;
The sunbeam of life, when it sets,
Sheds halo of peace DER the grave. P.

Fire.

On Sunday morning last, about midni ght
| our slumbers were disturbed by the tones OF
the fire bell. The building destroyed was
an ice house, situated above Columbia street,
owned by Joseph Sprgg. We understand
that some children, late in the afternoon of
Saturday, were playing with fire near this
building, and all not being extinguished the
supposition is that it caught from this. We
would here make suggestion, that the pro-
perty holders should turn out to man at
all fires, to save the property of their fellow
citizens. 1t must be remembered that a ma
jority of the active fremen of our city are
now in the Second Regiment, and have not
the liberty to leave their camp at the tap of
the alarm bell and, consequently, it becomes
the imperative duty of the owners of pro-
perty, and the citizens who seek the welfare
of our town, to turn out on each and every
occasion and render their aid to check the
devouring element. We are we'll aware that
many do not stir limb when the cry of fire
is heard on the street, and if you ask the
reason be will CURLY answer, Well, the
night was disagreeab!e," or FL felt too
sleepy; and as the wall was not hot next to
where l laid I concluded | wouldn't go /;
plenty there without me- Suppose every
one should pattern after you, the town might |
be half destroyed before the fire could be
checked. We would like hereafter to see
change in our citizens, for no one knows
how soon he may see his own property in
flames. This suggestion, we hope, may
prove beneficial for the town and its CT items.

Thursday MOrning%a:Apri "a, 1862.
Military Tactics, and Tactics Of
/ 81 the Civilians.

s'7% As a people, we suppose ourselves ac-
quainted with everything, and consequently
capable of forming correct conclusions on
every subject The assumption of universal
knowledge, is one of our characteristics
whilst other nations are content to study a
few things we'll and confess ignorance of the
balance. Since we have suddenly become
involved in civil war, although having but
little experience before in military matters,
beyond militia training, we have become
at once a nation of military strategists.
Even boys think themselves capable of
planning a campaign, and critcising the
movements of our Generals.
The war looks like a small matter and the
rebellion seems capable of being crushed at
once with a single blow Whilst our most
scientific generals are spending days and
nights in perfecting plans for the army, there
are thousands who have perfected plans of
their own without any extra thought or
trouble. Hence we are impatient of delay,
and indulge in merciless criticism upon our
military leaders. ..-
Gen. Scott was blamed for not going con
to Richmond and when yielding to the
clamor, and the massacre Of Bulls Run oc-
Cured, he was blamed for making the at
tempt. Mcclellan has nearly lost his place,
for delay, and notwithstanding almost unin-
terrupted successes have attended our army
since its general movement he receives but
little credit for his vast and intricate plans
from which these results flow Almost blood
less victories have been attained, and yet the
strategy by which they have been accom-
plshed is not appreciated. The thousand
other plans concocted by civilians and editors
are deemed better because they never have
been tried. 1t is the part of wisdom to wait
until the great plan of the war is fully de-
veloped, before we pronounce Judgment |
upon it, ,...
In minor details, there may have been
some failures and even blunders, but the
grand programme of the war has been most
successful. If we cast our eye over the map,
we see an immense military line encroachipg
slowly, but surely and powerfully, upon the
revolted territory. There is evidence of the
working of master mind, which even the
Rebel Chieftans see and ADMIRE and which
in the end will no doubt sustain our govern
ment and spare the terrible slaughter that
must have otherwise ensued. -
