that, although he made no denial of shooting

THE SANDWICH ISLAND TRBATY.-The
reciprocity treaty between this Government
and the Hawaiian Government of the Sand
wich Islands has been ratified by the au-
thorites at Honolulu, and will be sent to the
Senate at the next session for its action there
on. 1t was prepared IN the interest Of the
monarchists OF Hawaii as flank movement TO
head off the republicans, who are extremely
desirOus of annexng the Islands to the United
States. The argument used by the monarch
lists ls that, with San Francisco al q free port
to which the planters can send their sugar, the
sum of 5000, ,O0u will be saved annually to the
residents. and they plausibly argue that our
Pacific coast will be equally benefited
by reciprocal free trade in their ports. 1t
seems that the annexation movement became
70 strong that the King and his friends were
obliged to resort to the pending treaty as the
only measure which could allay its progress
The Government native journal opposed the
treaty and warned the mobiles and representa-
tives OF the Government against the malicious
designs Of traitors, and ad wise the Legislature
TO lay the treaty on the table.
The writer "said the chiefs and representa-
tives ofthe people In the Leg islature may think
they are called together to consider and pass,
for the general benefit, the invention between
the two Government; but in view OF the threats
to seize the eGoYernments,a and the desire for the
death Of his majesty, kRmahmaha. who Is so
greatly belo we'd, and who has the hearts Of all
the Hawailane, there 10 good reason to look
upon the treaty with distrust, and refuse to
pass it,"

AFFAIRS IN PRINCE GEORGES COUNTY,
MD-The Marlboro Gazette of ,7terday Gays
The large and substantially built brick sta
bic of VIM. b. Hill. Esq, near this village,
was destroyed by fire Oh SATURDAY. afternoon.
There had been no fire near the premises that
day, and 1T is supposed that the fire may have
originated from friction matches leftin the hay
loft and ignited by rats and mice. Some few
agricultural implements and a quantity Of
hay were destroyed.
Capt Magruder's cavalry company of Ma
tionai Guards drilled on Saturday last in Bla-
densburg. They were well mounted, and are
stalwart, good locking troop. As vet thew
have received no equipments or clothing from
the State, and did not of course wear a strictly
uniform appearance. The latter defect will be
remedied this month.
1t is said tar mixed with corn and fed to hogs
is remedy for the hog cholera. A gentleman
on the Eastern Shore OF this State has tried it
with success. great number of hogs are dying
with this disease in Talbot county.
The plowlng club proposed in the Gazette
lew weeks ago proved q dead failure. Only
one man joined the club. Various excuses
were given for not entering the list to compete
OF being the best plowman.
The Early Goodrich potato proves to be an
abundant bearer. Judge Hill, near Marlboro,
raised this season forty eight bushels from ono
bushel planted.

THAT SCoUNDREL MUNRoE.-In alluding
to the proceedings Of General SHERIDAN
in New Orleans the kind hearted and phi
lanthropic Washington Chronicle says "the
"infamous scoundrel MUNRoE has been
"removed from the Mayoralty." Ar
amiable gentleman like "my uncle TOBY
might desire "to intercede for better
epithet," but a little reflection would
teach him that Mayor MUNRoE is not so
denounced for anything he had stolen, or
any lies he had told, or any cruelties he
had perpetrated, but merely because he
does not entertain political opinions con-
curing with those of the Washington
Chronicle. Had he been of the same
stripe Of HAHN, and DosrIE, and HAMIL-
TON, he would have been saint. The
same amiable person would see that a
change of few thousand at the polls
would present Mayor MUNRoE in q very
different light; and not only so, but, as
a matter Of course, by the same rule the
refined gentleman who now pronounces
him to be can infamous scoundrel" must
himself stand in the pillory as the "scoun-
drei IN lieu Of the Mayor. 1t is rather a
dangerous standard of morality which is
now set up by the organ. grinders Of the
dominant party.

Fifteen years ago HOsTETTER'S STOMACH BIT
TIERS was struggling into notice against the pre-
JUDGES which everything new, however excellent,
is doomed TO encounter.
To-day II stands at the head Of all the tonic and
Alternative preparations in existence Its celebrity
has evoked many limitations, but NO RIVALS. Ply
sicians pronounce IL the ONLY SAFE sTIMULAST that
has ever been introduced into the sick chamber.
In the hospitals of the army and navy the sur
geons find il the very best tonic for
and report 1t az invaluable for sustaining the vgor
OF troops on the march, as remedy for scurvy
and all scorbutic affections, and as the only spe-
cioc for sea sickness. California and Australia
have emphatically endorsed 1t as the MINERS ME-
pIcISE par excellence, and in Spanish America
and all the tropical climates 1t Is considered the
only reliable antidote to epidemic fever.
There is no mystery about the causes OF Its sue
cess. It is the only stomachic and Alternative In
which are combined the grand requisites OF mild,
pure and unvitiated vegetable stimulant, with the
finest selection OF tonic antibilious, anti scorbu-
tic. aperient and depuratiye herbs, plants roots
and banks that have ever been intermixed In
medicinal preparation.
tits also proper to state thatthe BlTTERs are sold
exclusively in glass and never, under any circum'
stances, by the gallon or the barrel. lmpos'ors

the public has against them Is to see that the BIT

ELECTION OF PRESIDENT.

THE VIRGINIA LEGISLATURE TO BE LEFT
AT HoME.-The Washington correspondent
of the Baltimore Gazette makes the follow
ing statements, which are new to us:
A very painful fact-for l cannot class
it among mere rumors of even general Gre
dence-has come to my knowledge. It's
known that by law the Legislature of Vir-
giuia is to reassemble on the 10th of April
proximo. From all reliable information
from that State it is plain that the only
purpose the members Of that body have in
view in connection with national affairs is
that the great change which has been
forced upon them in their political and So
cial relations shall be consummated in an
orderly and amicable manner. Neyerthe-
less, it seems that the Secretary of War
insists (although what authority he pos
sesses in the premises is hard to compre-
hend) that this meeting shaHbe prevented by
military force, Various motives have been
assigned for this extraordinary action
among which I hear that such official
action has been demanded by the master
spirits composing the committee appointed
by the recent Radical caucus. 1t seems
to be feared that General Schofield might
be in some measure guided in the appoint
ment of registers and judges by the advice
of the gentlemen composing the Assembly
of Virginia, and so interfere with the pre-
ordained measures of the commissioners
into whose hands has been committed by
the caucus the sole management Of the
coming elections. / shall watch this mat
