MARYLAND Finances.

Our friend Cotton, ofthe Annapolis Republ
can, has taken upon himselfthe herculean labor
of proving thai the charges of extravaganza
made against our late democratic Legislature, by
Republican journals, are all ISLANDERS. After q
deal of figuring, Mr.. Cotton states the debt Of
Maryland to be, at the present time, 81, sos, 2SS-
95 on "which she has to provide interest. p
The actual debt is stated to be $ll, 7l2, l90.45,
but there are offsets and revenues which provide
the means of liquidating without taxation, the
interest on all this latter sum except the balance
first stated Now, brother Cotton, take the
Comptrollers report of 1866 just about the time
the democratic party came into power. The to-
tai public debt was then but So, 6,059.24, over
three millions less than now. Is there any good,
valid reason or excuse for this increase, unless
we seek it in the wasteful appropriations OF the
Legislature But this is not all. Comptroller
Jump stated in his report to the Legislature in
| 1866. that "unless there should be some untow-
ard interference with the revenues OF the State
I" in 1861 will again commence the rapid reduc-
e ton of the State debt" The "untoward cir
| cumstance' came, in the shape OF the eleva-
ton of the democratic party to power, and the
result is, not a reduction of the State debt, but
its increase, by over three millions OF dollars
| The increase would have been greater but for the
fact that our Legislators keep it down by the in
Fiction upon the people of higher taxes. For

A LADY POLITICIAN AT local election ''oul
West" crinoine had good deal to do with the
business. The contest turned wholly upon per-
sonal popularity, and the successful candidate
brought his wife to help him. "His wife" said
the country paper, "would have made the for
tune of any candidate A fine dazzling woman,
she rode about with him in a carriage on the can
vassing tours, and when, one day, he stopped in
public house, TO see a committee, while she sat
without awaiting his return, the 'frieze coats
gathered around the vehicle, and giving cheers
for her honor, called on her for speech
Prompt as lightning she responded, i will sing
you song which any Irishman with music in
bis soul would prefer to speech and she sang,
in clear sweet voice, some of Moore's melodies.
The 'frieze coats listened. From that moment
until the election took place, the beautiful politi-
clan could never appear in public without being
mplored for a song"

We have. in The CHANGED tone Of

We have, 10 the changed tone of Southern
orators and journals, since the election, striking
proof of the fact that Republican success was all
that was required to quiet disturbing elements
and insure speedy and permanent peace. Where
before the election, was defiance and opposition
to the reconstruction measures adopted By Con-
gress, is now an evident desire to "accept the
situation" and to deal candidly with the politi-
cal questions now agitating the minds of the peo-
pie. The tone of the Southern press is now
very healthy one, and promises much of good.
The election of Grant and Cclfax has proved
conclusively that the American people are devoted
to Union and TO the theory that "all men
"are created free and equal" and the Southern
people exhibit wisdom in so cheerfully accepting
the verdict of the majority, and in their plain
desire to yield to the wishes of that majority
Had the nation pronounced at the polls for
Seymour and Blair, anarchy would already have
reigned supreme in most Of the late Confederate
States. The public journals would have been
calling for the expulsion of ''carpet-baggers, and
'the overthrow of the State governments An
CRY threats made during the canvass would now
be in the process of execution. Blair's programme
of lawlessness and violence would be developing
itself everywhere. and the wires and mails would
be borne down with details of outrages inflicted
upon loyalists, white and black
Grant, however, is successful at the polls, and
order begins at once to emerge ont of chaos.
Papers which predicted the dispersion of the
"rnmp'' Congress, and the restoration of their
'rights through Blair's trusty sword" now
counsel acquiescence and moderation, and con-
clude that Grant, after all, will be a good man
= preside over the destinies of the nation.

But few persons have adequate idea of the
number of immigrants annually arriving in the
United States, or of the amount of wealth they
bring with them. Staisticians estimate the
number of immigrants from European States to
this country since 1890 at six millions FIVE hun
dred thousand, and that their descendants TO-
day number fully twenty millions or about one
half OF the entire population. From 1920 to
1880 the number OF foreigners who landed on
our shores was 244, AGO. from 1880 to 1910,
$4,000 from 1910 TO 1850, 1858, 300 from
1850 to 1860, 2,707, ga. The annual average
of immigration since 1860 is put down by Con-
gresham Banks at $50, 900, and actual investi-
CATION has proved that each immigrant, man,
woman and child, represents from eighty TO one
hundred dollars. Thus, in the aggregate, near
thirty millions OF dollars in gold is added to the
money resources of the country annually by inn
migration alone A contemporary says upon this
subject: "But we must look further than the
money value OF The Immigrant, and consider
his productive capacity Estimating his la
Dor at five hundred dollas year, at this rate our
annual immigration would add one hundred
millions year to the cash value of the country
