Charity.

Our Legislature, on Tuesday last, voted
100000 out Of the Treasury of the State to
feed the starving people of the Rebel States.
Mississippi, few days previous, voted
$4,000 to defend jeff Davis. While the
starving rebels Of Mississippi and other
States south move the sympathies of our

this large sum, their own Legislatures, over.

that assisted to murder Massachusetts troops
in the streets of Baltimore, on their way to
protect the capital, and the members Of the
Session Legislature of 81, who conspircd to
pass an ordinance of secession, have been
voted pay by our present secession body at
Annapolis, Thus one rebel pet scheme after
another is likely to drain the treasury of the
State during the present short--as we hope
and believc-rebcl rule in Maryland.

Slandering tie Absent.

The last Democrat, in speaking of the
Elkton Post. office trouble, true to its in.
stincts, takes special pains to travel round
the truth. 1t says Of Mr.. Mckinsey, 0ate
postmaster at Elkton,l that he was g very
polite and efficient officer, and one who was
likely to keep the office as long as he desired
IT." After charging him with feiguing John
sonism, The Democrat continues: -. BY
and by the election came round and the sly
postmaster who had slipped in quickly TO
deposit his radical ballot began to bauch
with fright every time he saw "a Johnson
man, for fear he knew his secret" These
johnson men, if The Democrat is TO be
relied OF, have sadly fallen from this high
frightening estate they occupied 50 recently,
for at present they are so harmless that the
children of Elkton laugh at them as they
move about our streets with downcast ewes
and heightened faces. Bat the facts as
stated by The DemOcrdt are not facts Mr..
Mckinscy resigned before the election, and
avowed openly and above.board his iutcn-
ton to vote the radical ballot and did
so vote on the day of election without any
slipping or blanching whatever. As to his
likelihood :" to keep the Office as long as he

The Public school Law.

IN" legislature has passed an amcndat DRY
school law which authoriscs the lovv of l.
cents on the hundred dollars Of taxable
property ,hrought the State for the support
of free schools. and also empowers the
County Commissioners to levy on any school
district, in any Of the counties, the amount
OF tax necessary to build school houses,
provided majority of the voters in such
district may SO determine at AN election held
for said purpose.
Notwithstanding those good features to
the school law, there is strong prejudice.
evidently, III the Legislature Ia cripple and
undermine the whole system, BY invidiously
attacking and endcavorins to crippcit, Not
daring TO attack the system OF Public Schools
openly, they seek covcrtly 40 accomplish the
ruin OF the sysien. This has been evident
to every careful reader Of the proceedings
OF that body since its meeting. When will
our people fully understand that the men
who are supporters of slavery and all its OK
elusive privileges, and opposed to free men,
free thought, aud free discussion, are also
consistently aud bitterly opposed to free
schools which lays the ak at the root of their
tavorite system Of government? The pres.
ent party in power in the State now, calling
itself democratic, conservative, or what other
party title, policy or motives may dictate, has
always been, and must always be, as "a pu,ty,
from its very nature and spirit, opposed to
educating the masses, which alone can he
done by system OF free schools. There
are many individuals, unfortunately acting
with that party who are warm friends of
public education but as Il party it is oppos

people entrust power in their hands they in.
variably jeopardize free schools. Laburing
poor men, who have children to educate,
will you ever bear this in mind? Through
ignorance is their only hope to maintain
their ascendcncy in the State, and they wish
the children Of the laboring classes to re.

the stygian darkness the party is cropping in

The American Conflict.

The publication of the concluding portion
of Mr.. Grecloy's History strengthens us in
the opinion we expressed Of its merits, upon
the appearance OF vol !. And the fact that
the first yolumn found subscribers to the
number of one hundred and fifty thousand
sufficient evidence of the popular estimate
Of the work. The two volumes are intended
to exhibit the drift and progress of Ameri.
can opinion in regard to Human Slavery
from 1776 down to Lees surrender and the
overthrow of the Rebellion in 1865, and the
task has been faithfully executed. Mr..
Greey's marked individuality is prominent
on every page Of the book; but nearly every
Statement in the two volumes rests on, and
is fortified by documentary evidence, so that
differ as much as the reader may from many
of the conclusions Of the author he will be
unable to evadc the facts which lie states
with such candor and sincerity
In no other history can such mass of
valuable matter be found bearing upon the
rise, progress and downfall Of Slavery, aud
consequently upon the rise, progress and
downfall of the Stakeholder Rebellion -
And every one who wishes to thoroughly
understand the history Of tho unsuccessful
attempt to overthrow the Government should
read the American Confick. The work is
enabellisbed with liiclike portrait Of the
author, and with 143 portraits in classified
groups, Of prominent men mentioned in
its pages. 1t also contains diagrams Of
battle'felds, and is accompanied with large
copper plate map Of the seat of war. It is
