these home Tfators, who were more deeply con-
ccrned for the success of the Rebellion, than ma
ny who bore its arms, too cowardly or too mer-
cenary to join thei comrades in the field prefer
ring to remain at home, retain their property, in
suit aud obstruct the government as best they
dared-these men deserve no pity. Their words
and acts were Of their own free WILL and it is as
much as they ought to ask, that they be allowed
to escape with a simple Acknowledgement as lit
tie as the Union people will be satisfied with,
that they be prevented from performing similar
mischief in the future To allow these men to
control the politics of the State for their own in
terest, as heretofore, would be like setting free
an assassin with loaded pistols, ready to repeat
the outrage on humanity at the first opportunity.
Now that their last hope Of success has fallen
and the once boastful conrederacy is poor mem
dicant in the dust it will not do for these men to
put on sleeps clothing and come whining
Union" "Unioh." Their character must be
established by their past history, and if they are
found amenable to the law, it is the duty of the
Registers firmly to execute it.
1t is high time too, that some Difference be shown
to the loyal people, by the Traitors and semi
Traitors incur midst. Time that loyalty ceases
to be a .reproach and Stigma. Time that people
of both sexes stop talking about Contemplate
Union men, and prding themselves on their
Southern syhpathies." The public mind is
not in humor to bear these things mch lonnger.

Mr- Grason,s Card.

In last week 5 Journal appeared an article adj
dressed $40 the voters of Baltimore county, by
Richard Grason Esq. in reference to the late
contested Jndgeship. Serious charges are made
in the article against the chara r and integrity
of those members of the comm tee on elections,
and of the House of Delegates, who voted in ia
yor Of Mr.. Grason's removal. OF the truthfulness
of these charges we are not prepared TO speak. -
Iffalse, those accused are the proper persons to
deny them. Among other statements, however,
Mr. Grason makes the following
No meeting of the committee had been held for
the purpose of agreeing upon report, and Mr..
VIM. Il. Hoffman's name was signed to this pa
per by some one else, while he was absent from
Annapolis and before he had ever seen or read it.
In referring to the -4mer,caa of March 25th,
we find the following among the legislative pro-
ceedings in The case:
Mr.. Hoffman Zone of the committee) said that
he fully sustained and concurred in the report OF
the majority of the Committee on Elections. His
name was appended to il by his authority, and
he had seen and read the report before it was pre-
sented to the House. titts1
We make this extract from the proceedings in
justice to Mr. Hoffman, and that the people may
be better prepared to judge of Mr., Grason's ar

For tie Union


Mtssrs Editors After ALL it is little sur
prising with how much avidity public positions
are sought after, when we consider how entirely
thankless they are, when possessed. The weary
incumbent, rarely ever comes up TO the expecta-
tions of his constituents, however anXiously he
may desire such consummation. II he makes
long speeches, however eloquent and appropriate
they may be, he is at once denounced as being
"gassy," and waster Of precious time If on
the other hand he be silent, and 'ecer so tdstri-
Gus, forthwith lie is dubbed a "blockhead, ]" and
a clog TO the wheels OF intelligent legislation
Sounded, il may well be said to be- a thankless
servitude, and he who anxiously seeks after it, a
misguided devote to his own destruction
Much of this seeming ingratitude arises from two
causes the first, and by far the most prevalent
one is a misconception or want of proper appre-
citation of the many difficulties the servant is
subjected to, arising from factious opposition so
prevalent in high party times. However judi
cious measure may be in its conception, howev-
er faithfully elaborated and perfected, the fac
tious critic is ever ready to exhibit his ingenui-
ty, by proposing debateable amendments and
endless provisos. So time is consumed, and that
which in its inception was intended as a whole
some law, actually becomes mangled and per-
verted incongruity, and at last is thrown away
as utterly useless. Another prolific cause of fault
finding arises from too superficial view of what
really are the wants of the communityjin Leg
islative point of view. Whilst some are best
pleased with the quantity of legislation accom-
plished, there are others (and By far the more ju
dicious,) who look rather to the quality of the
work than the quantity of it. So that he who
makes the vain attempt to please every body,
generally finds 60 his DISCONTINUED that be sue
ceeds in pleasing no one The true course there
fore, for the judicious and conscientious public
servant, to pnrsue,is simply to fulfill the objects
ofhis mission by honestly and faithfully looking
after the public veal as he himself understands
it, assisted of course, by the best lights that are
within his reach, without making the vain at
tempt TO please time serving politicians or mex
perienced croakers. do not object to the exer-
else of an elevated and enlightened public scrut-
ny. Such privilege legitimately belongs to, and
is inseperable from every Independent comnluni-
ty, properly approaching, and determined to
preserve, rational liberty. j u4
