TIDE WATER CANAL For the week ending on
the oath instant, there were towed from the
Canal Basin, at Havre de Grace, lO2 boats as
follows: To Baltimore, "A boats, loaded with
lumber, coal, &C.; to Philadelphia, 10 boats,
loaded with lumber, coal, &C., and to Spesutia
Island, boats, carrying coal During the pres
ent season, much the greatest number of boats
towed from Havre de Grace have gone to Balti-
more. This seems to indicate that of late the
trade of the canal is principally to that city,
whereas in former years. the bulk of the trade
went to Philadelphia. Considering the near APP
proach of the close ofnavigation the trade on the
canal is not large.

MARYLAND ELECTION,

We Lave compiled from our State ex-
changes and other sources of information
the following tables, giving the vote for
Memt ers of Congress in the several dis
tricts, for Comptroller of the Treasury and
for md against the Constitutional Amend
nent. We believe we have complete re-
turns from all the counties in the State
excepting Calvert-in which there is no
newspaper published-and Montgomery,
both of which give Conservative MAORI
ties. The tables will be found useful for
reference in the future.
COMPTROLLER OF THE TREASURY.
The following is thevote for Comptroller
of the Treasury, the only State officer chos-

The Circuit Court for Hartford County.
NOVEMBER TERM.

This Court adjourned on Saturday, after a
session Of ten days. No very great amount Of
business was done during the term. Although
the doclets were heavy, few cases were ready for
trial, and litgants seemed inlisposed to make
preparation for contest; so that but few trials
were had or judgments entered, not from any
fault of the Court or its officers, but from SEEM
ing disnclnation on the part of persons en-
gagged in civil suits to press them. There were,
during the term, thirty-three cases disposed of,
-hT trials indUments agreements, &C, and fifteen
cases removed to adjoining counties for trial, as
follows:
Cyrus Minnick, five cases for selling liquor
contrary to law, removed to Baltimore county
for trial; Henry Barney and Patrick O'Neill, in
dicted for stealing carriage cover, the property
Of William r. Young, of Havre de Grace, two
cases, removed to Cecil county for trial; Isaac
Moore, negro, indicted for an assault with in
tent to commit rape; three cases, removed to
Cecil county for trial. VIM. r. Young, indict-
ed for assault and battery, removed to Cecil
county; VIM. Thompson, indicted for shooting
ducks in violation of the act of Assembly, re-
moved to Cecil.
On the last day of the term Henry Bishop,
negro, convicted of larceny, was sentenced to the
penitentiary for two years John Miller, con-
victed of larceny was sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for one year; James Hanson, negro, con.
victed of stealing, was sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for two years, and William King, boy
under the age of fourteen years, who WINS con-
victed of stealing clothing from n B. Holland,
ESQ.,, was sentenced to the House of Refuge.
The Grand Jury continued their sitting until
Saturday, having occupied ten days in their de.
alterations, during which time they examined a
large number of witnesses and found ffty-six
bills of indictment, twenty-four Of which are
against four men.
Most of the important cases went over to the
February term, and consequently those which
have been disposed of were of an unimportant
nature. The dockets always appear large 10 the

TIE SoUTH.-That part of this coun-
try known as "the South" is as large as
Great Brita n, France, Austria, Prussia,
and Spain together, embracing eight hun.
dred and fifty thousand square miles, with
staple productions which none of these
countries con grow, and with most ge-
NAL soil and productive climate. Is not
such territory worth developing with all
the arts of peace? What would the rev.
enue of the General Government, and
the manufactures an commerce of the
North be without it? Is there any gov
emmett in Europe, no matter how des-
potic, that would not try to make the most
of such a region, and build up its labor and
prosperity? Yet we tee the men in the
North, like Wendell Phillips, who think
it is more important to propagate "Massa-
chu~etts ideas" in the South than any
other crop, and consider negro suffrage
more important to America than cotton,
commerce and manufactures.

From the Pitsburg Repubhc.1
Buffers Bsastly Woman Order at New
Orleans.

When Butler took possession of New
Orleans he pursued such a domineeriDg
and tyrannical course-especially in his
treatment of women and children who
were without protectors and who appeal
ed in vain to his charity and humanity
that the ladies Of the city showed their
resentment in exercising the high prerog-
alive of the sex in tossing their heads,
turning up their noses, and giving their
skirts that abrupt twirl so gracefully fol-
lowing a twist of the female form, when
Butler made his hideous appearance upon
the streets. Some of the ladies, for pru-
dental reasons based upon natural causes,
hid themselves that they might not gaze
upon his features. Now the ladies Of
New Orleans might have shown a want
of good breeding or good sense in thus
treating Butler with marked contempt,
but tina. they did not justify him in issu-
ing the order which has made his name
byword and reproach the world over,
one section Of which reads as follows:
HEADQUARTERS Dept OF THE GULF,
New orleans, May 10, 1867.
Nis ordered, that hereafter when
dny female shall. by word, gesture or movement,
insult or show contempt for any officer or private
of the United States army, she shall be regarded
and held liable TO be treated as WOMAN OF
THE TOWN PLYING HER VOCATION.
BY command of
Major General BUTLER.
Talk about the Haynaus and other
military monstrosities whose names have
become infamous because of their order
ing women to be whipped What is the
corporeal punishment of woman compared
to the giving up of the ladies of civil
lied city to the whims and lusts of an ar
my? Read and re-read Buffers order.
If a woman "showed contempt" for any
officer or soldier, that officer CT soldier
being sole judge in the case, was author
lied to "treot her as a0onGn Of the
to'om plying her Oocat,on!" In the an.
nails of civilized warfare nothing can be
found to compare with this abominable
order Of the radical hero of q hundred dis
graceful retreats and defeats.
To the honor of the American soldier,
however, be it said, that, although thus
given full license to allow tho basest pas
sions to run riot, not an officer Or private
of the army which had the misfortune to
be lead by Butler, unless Butler himself,
for whom we cannot speak, was guilty of
treating any lady of New Orleans as ga
woman of the town plying her vocation"
The soldiers were men-fathers, brothers,
sons-not beasts. They might have felt
insulted by and indignant at their treat
ment by the weak and venomous rebel
women, but they respected their own
manhood too much to sink themselves to
the level Of the brute in accordance with
Buffers order.

uninitated, and in number they are large, but
when weremember that there is scarcely more than
one in twenty ofthe cases which are brought to
Court that are ever intended for trial, the Won
der that more cases are not tried at each term
ceases. Cases are prosecuted for the purpose of
obtaining judgments, in most instances, when
they appear on the dockets. There is no dispute
between the plaintiff and defendant in these cases.
as to the amount due, and hence no defence is
made, whereas trials occur only where there is
q controversy.

Stamps aid, ASIaylng Cards.

The manufacture of these valuable little
bits of paper Is a Government monopoly
in France as well as Everywhere else, but
is farned out toa private contractor, who
has his workshopsfin a back court of the
Hotel des Monnaies or Mint, where mill
lion and a half Of postage stamps are daily
produced at u cost to the Government of
00c per 1,00O, so that in the case ofithalow-
est description, of stamps, Of the yaluer of

Toe. per 1000. The same workshops also
produce the postage stamps for the French
colonies, the Kingdom of Greece, the Re-
public of Guatemala, and any other for
eign countries that choose to apply.
The sheets used in this manufacture are
first subjected to a preliminary process,
viz: that of covering the whole surface
with a sort of white transparent ink AN
Operation whichis performed by means of
cylinders. The object of this process Is to
prevent forgery, for we're any one TO, at

The bad stamps are now picked out, and
the remainder sent to the General POST
Office.
The State having also the monopoly Of
playing cards, the manufacture ic0nnected
with 1t is also partly connected in the above
workshops. The State causes a peculiar
paper, bearing transparent figure Of the
eagle, to be manufactured at special mill !;

types OF the court cards and the ace of clubs
are engraved by electricity, !, at the imperial
printing office these types are used to print
on the sheets marked with the5eagle; the

is stamped at the Hotel du Timbre, Card
manufacturers, therefore, are obliged to
buy of Government the court cards, aces Of

print the low cards, which they do them
selves. 1t is they who make up the packs,
and send them to the retail dealers.
