The Stay-law.
The Legislature Of Maryland. near the
close Of the late session, extended the
provisions Of the late stay.law for the ensu-
ing two years. The law applies. how
ever, TO but four counties Of the State
Saint Mary's, Charles. Prince Georges
aud Anne Arundel. No copy Of the law
has reached US. but We are inf,rmed that
it is simply the oil law extended. We pre-
dict. that this fois,iug Of an er post Eaeto
system OF Legislation upon the people Of
this county viii meet with but little favor
ut their hands. The late law worked but
little good and much injury. and whilst
the former was but temporary, the latter
was permanent. The fraud and corrup-
ton it engeudercd should have been a
warning to honest Legislators, whilst the
doubtful justice of such measure chal-
lenges. at least. criticism and comment.
Contracts should always be enforced by
the Law existing at the time they were
made. and any deviation from this rule is
sheer injustice. The frugal and careful
should not be sacrificed at the altar Of ex-
travasance sad rsshness. The law is.
therefore. unjust aud fraudulent in its
tendency. and its authors should be held
to q rigid accountability for its enactment.
