We earnestly hope that the Union men of the
county will bear in mind the Primary Meetings
to be held throughout the county to-day, to Sc
lect delegates to the County Convention to be
held in this town on Monday next. This is an
important matter-one that should not be ne
elected Unless the people take an active part
in the Primary Meetings, how can they expect to
be fairly represented in the County or State Con-
ventions? Vital issues are at stake. An effort
is being made to betray the Union Party into the
hands of Rebels and Copperheads. Weak
kneed Union men, ''water-gruel office-holders, I"
and few 'ssore-heads'' are deserving our ranks,
and going over TO the enemy, and unless we
buckle on our armor, our cause will be lost
Do you want the Registry Law repealed? Do
you want it modified? Do you want Rebels to
control the balot-box and the State Govern
ment? If not, you must stir yourselves, and
give small portion of your time to the cause Of
the Union. We hope to see a general turnout
on Saturday, that good and true men may be Sc
lected to attend the County and State Conven-
tons.

5a1-A champaign document is before us.
1t is an immense hand-bill, calling upon every
body to assemble and form johnson Clubs
It's a right pretty q document" Large letters
stare you in the face, and a big eagle holds in
his talons scroll, on which is inscribed John
son and his liberal policy" Which policy the
call doesn't condescend to inform us, for Andy
has two policies :--one that treason must be
made odious, another that it should be forgiv7
en- : one that loyal men must rule, another that
rebels should be admitted to all the privileges
of the government one that rebels should
take back seat in the work of reorganization,
another that Southern Senators and Represen-
tatiyes. fresh from rebel armies and civil off
ces, should be admitted to Congress. Then
follows a lot of little letters declaring this a
White mans government, and pitching into
that terrible 'anti-republican" Registry law,
and winding up with respectful recommen-
dation" that when Johnson Clubs are formed
lists Of the officers and members shall be for
warded to the Office of that loyal sheet, the Ma
gun with breathless anxiety. Doubtless it will
cause widespread dismay in the ranks of the
opponents of "my policy" and we will soon
see, perhaps, those who wereso reckless as to OPP
pose Andy" making pilgrimage to the
Baltimore Custom House or Post Office, sueing
for absolution. Couldn't branch office be es-
tab1ished at the Journal office for that purpose?
We have good many crippled soldiers in our
county who have been SO bind as to oppose
treason. 1t may be inconvenient for them to
go so far; couldn't they be pardoned here?

Messrs. Editors THE people of this COM
munity have been rather excited the past week,
caused by the advance in gold and the spit in
the Union party. The rise in the price OF gold
is to be regretted at this time-the markets for
All kinds OF commodities being very dull, and
tne people engaged In mechanics doing moth
ing However, it is one of those things which
we cannot control, and as it is occasioned by
tommy Bull going up the spout" which he
wanted US to come to- and was SO certain we
would, but didn't. / think it is our time TO
laugh; through a.Nbig rebellion" and not had
our Pan'c yet. 1t could not have happened in
better time; our country seems able to stand
the drain of gold, our National Treasury being
plentifully supplied with the solid metal. The
shipment of gold from New York last week
amounted to the large sum of eleven millions.
and for the last four weeks twenty-three mill
lions. s{F EF5#
The rise in gold advances merchandise of all
kinds, so that our markets have become dull
all demand has stopped, hoping fora fall in the
metal. Good business men think this summer
Will be the hardest that we have had for years
on merchants.
The division in the Union party ought never
to have taken place. 1t is just what the reb-
els want They have been trying for some
time to get something to make capital out Of
The great cry about negro sufraqe has been
started by them when it is not Thought of, much
less intended to be brought into this campaign
by the leaders of the Unconditional Union Par
ty. It has always been the way of the Demo
cratic party to create some greatobstacle to the
union of its opponents, and to get them fight
ing among themselves and then to walk in and
carry off the spoils. l would advise Union
men to beware, and to look well before thew
compromise with this secesh Union portv If
the self same party is successful, loyal men
will wake up some fine morning and find that
all others, excepting those who supported and
wished for the establishment of the govern
ment of jeff Davis dtsfranchised. We NAV
know this party by its acts. In the Conven-
ton held last week resolutions were offered for
the repeal Of the Registry Law. Look we'll to
your interests or you will be all bought and
sold for "thirty pieces of silver" Trust none
but sound Union men, those that will not trot
! out with rebels in any guise. y The
serpent is not killed, only bruised and is now
getting ready to strike whenever the chance
arises. 1t is necessary that we should all work
work well to keep him where he will do the
least damage. No compromise acith rebels IN dny
shape or form, should be our motto.
On Friday last, we were very much shocked
to hear of the sudden death of James Hay
ward, ESQ.,, well known citizen in the ma,
chine business, being at the head of the largest
establishment in this city. Many of the inn
| provements of which Baltimore is SO very
proud, was projected and carried out by him.
The city was visited by heavy showers last
night, doing great deal toward laying the
dust and cleansing the streets. BALTIC.

OBJ FELLOWS CELEBRATION AT HEREFORD. On
Saturday last, Hereford Lodge, No. 80, l O. o.
F., held an anniversary celebration at Hereford,
in this county Accepting an invitation to be
present Towson Lodge, No. 70, OF this town, ac-
fcompanied by Itzler's Brass Band of Baltimore,
and under the marshaship ofCapt. G. A. Conner,
early in the morning reached Hereford, where
they were met by Hereford Lodge, with Martin
Conn as Marshal, and Band of music from
Glen Rock. After marching through the town,
the Lodges repaired to the Baptist Church, where,
after prayer, the audience listened attentively to
an excellent Grafton upon the principles, objects,
&C., of the Order, delivered by Deputy Grand
Master Fl R. Harrison of the Grand Lodge of
Maryland When Bro. Harrison had concluded,
Bro. John T Ensor, of this town, was called up
on, and made very beautiful address to the an-
deuce, which was we'll received. The Lodges
were then dismissed for dinner, after which they
re-assembled, and were again entertained by
Grand Master Harrison. A large number of the
citizens of the surrounding country were present
to witness the exercises, including large num-
Der of ladies. About A O'clock the visiting
brothers marched away for Sonkton and the
cars, escorted for some distance on the road by
Hereford Lodge. Towson Lodge was represent
ed on the occasion by nearly fifty of its members,
and Hereford Lodge numbered about fifty pres

rs The Journals account Of the Uncondi-
23d ultimo, contains several little Inaccuracies
which we desire 10 correct
lst.-"There were about $50 persons present.
y $ One-half Of those present were John
son men who came to witness what was said and
done" Now the Journal knows very well that his
estimate of the number present is not by any
means fair one, and its statement that sone-half
of those present were johnson men, positively
false We do not believe that there were over
dozen voters present who were not in full SYM
patty with the objects of the meeting
2d.-The Journal quotes certain remarks made
by Mr.. Stokes, contending that the people would
yet have to consider the question of negro suf-
frage, and says this sentiment was "vehemently
applauded." This is another falsehood. When
Mr.. Stokes referred to the probability of the
question coming up before the American people
for their action his remarks fell upon perfect
ly silent house; not one present applauded the
idea. 1900 .ofif1 ll e49i@ 4ie{at82
3rd.-The journal says that sCol Mckee an

ballot in order to maintain political power''-
The speech of COL Mckee is published in the
american of May 25th, in full will our cotem-
porary be kind enough to point out any such
language contained in it? t.a
4th.-"Nine out of every ten of the citizens of
Baltimore county are warm supporters of the
President and his policy" So says the Journal !;
but is it true? We suppose that the editor is
pretty well acquainted with the political status Of
the citizens of our immediate neighborhood, at
least. Now, will he be kind enough to let us
know how many of our citizens who at last cleo
ton voted with the Union party, are not with it
now Let him put on his studying cap' and
give if he can, the names of fifty men in the
whole county, recognized as straight-out Union
lists last fall, who are now with Purnell, Swami
l. Co. The truth is that our Union citizens al
most to man condemn the course adopted by
the President, and approve that of Congress-
And we know many men who were with the OPP
position last election, but who are with us now.
We published a communication last week from a
gentleman who last year was prominent leader
in the independent movement but who is not
willing to have his Union principals sold OUT
even though President johnson or Gov Swami
is the auctioneer.

Negro Equality

We take the subjoined paragraph from speech
of President job nSon addressed to regiment of
colored soldiers, at Nashville, Tenn, on the oath
Of October 1864: mait
Negro equality, indeed,i cried he why
pass any day along the sidewalks of High Street,
where the aristocratic more particularly dwell zs
these aristocrats whose sonsare now in the bands
of gueras and cut throats who prowl and rob
and murder around our cty-pass by these dwell
lings, j say, and you will see as many mulatto as
negro children, the former bearing an unmistaka-
BILE resemblance TO their aristocratic owners
Colored men of Tennessee, this, too, shall cease"
We publish the above for the special benefit
of some of the big-m outhed rebels Of our county,
who are continually prating about negro equal
ity, and trust they will take it home with them
and put it in their pipes and smoke it, particu-
larly those whose anteceedents leaves the public
in doubt as to whether they favor or oppose ''ne-
groe equality We have no doubt that they
are opposed to an equality with the male portion
of the colored population, but it does not appear
that they have any scruples against an equality
with the other sex of that race. If they have it
is only since the Civil Rights bill went into OPP
GRAFTON.

TT A City Convention Of those favorable to
Johnson's policy was held in Baltimore few
days since, at which a resolution cordially en-
dorsing the Registry Law was unanimously adopt
ed AT the meeting of the Central Committee
on Tuesday last resolution endorsing this same
law was rejected by vote of % to 5. This will
probably open the eyes of Union men of the city,
They will see where the Custom House and Post
office politicians will lead them if they follow in
their train. Already the very men who compo-
sed the city Convention have taken the alarm,
and many of them are leaving the ranks Of my

RAILROAD AcCIDENT-A Citizen of this County
Kiiled.-On Saturday night last, as the express
train on the Northern Central Railway, was
crossing the York turnpike at Cockeysvlle, it
came in contact with horse which Mr.. Robert
F. Price of this county, was riding. The train
was stopped as soon as possible, and Mr.. Price
was taken from the cow-catcher, apparently dead.
The body was placed on board and carried to
the warehouse of the company, where it was laid
for safety when the warehouse was closed and
the train proceeded. Subsequently, on Sunday
morning, the body was found in sitting pos
ture in another part of the room, with his head
resting against piece OF iron. 1t is supposed,
therefore, that the unfortunate man revived suf-
fciently TO enable him to get in the dark from the
one place to the other. He had sustained, in adj
dition to wound on the head a severe fracture
of the right leg, between the knee and hip. Jno
Willis, Esq, held an inquest at which DR.. Mo-
ses Merryman made an examination, the jury
rendering verdict that Mr.. Price died from n
wound in his leg, he having bled to death.
Since the above was written we have received
further particulars of this unfortunate affair."
1t seems that after the injured man was discov-
cred on the cow-catcher no very great trouble
was taken to ascertain whether he was dead or
not, but he was brutality thrust into the ware
house, there to bleed to DEATH When the body
was placed in the warehouse, it was laid on a
DOarQ resting on TWO HOSSuetuS. l. us was
About eleven o clock at night and the next
morning, at six O'clock when the door was
opened, il was found that the unfortunate man
had got off the plank, and crawled to another
part of the ROOM when he bed to death, in
sitting posture, the blood on his hands showing
the great efforts he had made to stop the hemor
rage. No one in the neighborhood seems to
have known of the occurrence until next morn
ing, except an official Of the road at Cockeysville,
named Shaeffer. The deceased was a very respec-
table citizen of the county, well known in the
Ineighborhood where he met his DEATH and if his
neighbors had been informed Of the occurrence,
as they should have been, the result might have
been very different; at least he would not have
died with none near him to minister to his wants.
Mr.. Price leaves a wife and several Children
The jury Of inquest summoned by Justice Willis
agree in saying that had proper attention been
given to the deceased, and proper remedies been
applied, he might not have died. When the
warehouse was opened on Sunday morning, it
was found he had died but recently, as his body
was yet warm.

Under this head theSt Mary's Gazette, Con-

following. How do our Swann-ites like it
We notice with regret that some Of our con-
servative friends are taking ground only for
partial modification of the Registry law in re-
gard to certain supposed disloyal parties in this
State. They would enfranchise only those whose
sympathy for the South was confined to words,
leaving parties who carried their sympathes in
to action without any reliefwhatever. How our
friends can consistently sustain policy which
allows rebel Virginia soldier to vote and ad-
here to policy which deprives q rebel Maryland
soldier of the same privilege, passes our compre-
hension. According to the Union theory, the
Virginia soldier was just as much rebel as the
Maryland, and with this view, to make fish of
one aud flesh of the other, is to create both an
invidious aud absurd distinction. The truth Is,
our friends have taken an untenable position,
position wholly inconsistent with the restora-
ton and pacific policy of President johnson, and
the sooner they shift II, the better for the cause
they are endeavorng to serve. The equitable
and consistent is the comprehensive policy in
this case. All parties who have been deprived
by the Registry law of the privileges of the cleo
tive franchise for political reasons should be re-
stored TO these privileges. Any measures of re-
lief short of this is but hating, halfway RENE
