Abolition Promises.

During the last Presidential campaign
Abolition editors and stump speakers were
loudmputhed and shameless in charging the
Democratic party with extravaganza and
corruption, with all their kindred evils
With brazen-faced hypocrisy they desert.
bed the blessings that would follow a
change of administration. Elect Lincoln,
and We shall have good times Elect
Lincoln, aud there shall be plenty of work
and high wages, Elect Lincoln, and the
expenses of government will be reduced.
Elect Lincoln. and if the South secede we
will send few regiments of wide awakes
down there and wipe out the rebels in
thirty days. Elect Lincoln, aud there
shall be plenty of money. Such pledges
they made all over this broad land, to the
honest masses whom they addressed only
to delude and ruin. How have these
pledges been redeemed ~
If by good times the fanatical horde
meant d nation plunged toithe nethermost
depths Of mourning mad poverty, then
have they well redeemed their promise.
# by plenty Of work and higher wages,
they meant place in the ranks for poor
white men at thirteen dollars a month,
where they have been butchered by thou
sands through the imbecility Of the ad-
ininistration, at the same time that politi-
cal favorites amass, princely fortunes by
fraudulent contracts then have they kept
their promise, If. by sending a few.wide-
awakes to wipe out the rebels, thdy meant
civil war unparalleled in the annals Of
the world for its magnitude and ferocity,'
then did they speak the truth. If by
economy they meant that they would in
crease the public expenditures from eigh-
B ~ millions to eight hundred millions per
annum that they would make gold and
silver as scarce as honest men, and shin.
plassers as plenty as rogues in their own
party, they have kept this promise, religi-
ously. The crazy fanatics wanted d
chan &c and they have it,. How do they
like it .--AHento,cn Democrat, ''i e'' "

At the Aims. House we found the farm
ia better condition than it has been for
years. The number Of padpers Is to Wit
6 males, 6 females, and 6 colored persons.
They appear to be we'll clad and as com
Portable as they can be, considering the
circumstances. The gentiemanly ever
seer, M. McC omas, appears to have great
consideration for the comfort Of the uu-.
fortunate inmates placed under his care,
and III word, we do not believe they
could be more comfortable considering the
condition Of the buildings and the means
placed at the disposal Of the overseer tr'a
In visiting the Jail we were conducted
through the building by the cver-courte-
Gus Sheriff, Charles D, Bouldin, ESQ and
beg leave to report TINT though every
attention appears to be given to the cont.
fort aud cleanliness Of the prisoners, we
found it most 'loathsome looking place.
The number Of prisoners confined in the
jail are lrreoa as follows, to wit " Insane, 4;
larceny, 3; horse stealing, i; disorder,
| 8 murder, | and | colored man tslave)
for safe keeping removed from Baltimore
County one, for larceny. - & t .,,% =
We will not undertake to call your
Honor's attention to any Improvements
which should be made at the Aims House
and jail. " Former Grand Juries have so
repeatedly done 50, and all their entreaties
and admonitions passed by UNDECIDED by
our County authorities, that we deem it
unnecessary to advert to them. g,1' 7 p.
