For the last two weeks the Court
House" has been industriously occupied
in the circulation of the following secret
and anonymous circular:
G1r:
Desiring TO steer clear Of the two factions, to
wit the Abolitionists on the one hand, and the
S,cessioniss ON the other, the true friends Of the
Union deem it necessary to present to the Union
voters of Allegany county ticket composed
Of men of undoubted loyalty, but who at the
same time are opposed TO the rampant Radical
ism of the day therefore let the Constitutional
Union men of Allegany County meet in their
respective districts on the 10th day Of March,
instant, and appoint one or more delegates to a
county Convention to be held in Cumberland
on Wednesday the 23d day of March 1864, to
nominate candidates for the State Convention
in opposition 10 the ticket recently nominated
by the Abolition Convention. We want such
Atickct rs true Union men can honestly vote
fbr.
MANY FRIENDS OF THE UNION
March, 1864.
In the printed circular tho dates and
day we're left blank, and gentlemen who
have seen the filing up, and are acquain-
ted with the figures and writing, inform
us that it was the work of the east end
Of the Court House. To this, "the true
friends of the Union" have no right to
take exception, as the position of the
presiding genius Of that place was defined
with sufficient distinctness in opposition
to the Union ticket last fall If any
true friends Of the Union" were then
deceived that is their misfortune, and if
they are further deceived We do not in
tend it shall be our fault.
This circular starts out with the asser-
ton. that there are two factions in this
county, to-wit: "Abolitionias" and
"Secsssionists." This may be and doubt.
less is true. but neither have as yet shown
their hands or heads openly, though there
is = reasonable prospect that the "Scces-
sionists" will do so soon. as they are to
have Convention at this present writing
(ahd we hope to be able to lay their
doings before our readers in our present
issue). The 'true friends Of the Union"
have placed ticket before the people of
the county which. by this circular, is de-
nounced as the Addition" ticket and of
. FICTION. We, in our ignorance, had
supposed that the dominant portion of q

Dictionary. claim the name Of party in

Stop mportations.

Movements are now on foot in the loyal States
to stop the importation of silks, Jewelry, ETC.
Why not include wines and liquors? Are our
patriotic ladies aware that more gold is paid to
Europe for these articles than there is paid for
silks and satins, and these articles, too, can be
replaced so well with our own pure native
wines? We called in a house on River street
not long ago, and in the wine cellar we tasted of
strawberry, blackberry, cherry and other wines
which to us tasted far ahead of the imported
ports, sherries, &c.
In'the June number of Harper's Monthly may
be found highly interesting treatise upon wine
making. 1.-The production of wine," says the
writer, % is the most important branch of agri-
cultural industry on earth; at all events, there
are only to be compared with it the culture of
rice, which forms the staple food of nearly one
third of the human race.
Europe is the main seat of wine culture, pro-
ducing II little more than three Thousand mil
lion gallons Al year, which, estimating the aver
age value at place of production, is worth, on
the spot, more than eight hundred millions of
dollars in gold.
Messrs. Bennett, Peters Il Co., of Chicago
have for the past three years been making ex-
tcnSive preparations for the manufacture of
homemade wines. They have the most extern
sivc arrangements with fruit growers and in
the proper season they gather Strawberries,
cherries, peaches, b!ackberries, raspherrics &c,
&C., 10 an enormous amount Their wines far
excel many of the imported Wines both in pu-
rty and eXhlerating effects. Many of these
homemade wines are being largely adulterat
ed. Buy none but those with the unmistakable
label of Bennett, Pieters & Co. These gentle
men are men of high responsibility and guar
antee every article rom their house pure and
uDldulterated. au;r20lwlw.
