JUNE.-With the advent of the ''month
of roses " we have been once more thrown
into the season of hay making, pic-nics and
pleasure executions generally. The farm
ers are busily engaged in securing their
early crops, i'll order that this branch of the
husbandman's labor may be completed be-
fore the grain harvest sets in. The young
folks seek recreation in the woods, or in
fishing parties, or in berTying excursions.
This is also the season when early vegeta-
bles are thrown into the market causing Il
general arrangement of the internal i'm
provements of making, and rendering
medical aid necessity. Just at this time
the Great Zingari Bitters step in as an anti
dOte for the various diseases arising from
the too free use of vegetables, or the nu-
merous ills to which farmers are exposed
during their excessive field labor, or to
which pleasure parties are subjected by
their efforts to obtain enjoyment in the
country. 4 supply of the Bitters should
be kept on hand for use at this particular
period when all are exposed to sickness.

School History of MARYLAND.

From notice in the Baltimore San of
Monday, in reference to the proceedings of
the School Commissioners of Baltimore
city, we learn that Professor Onderdonk's
abridgement of McSherry's History of
Maryland has been adopted by the board of
school commissioners of Baltimore city as
Il textbook in the grammer schools. 1t is
not merely put upon the book list, but it is
made obligatory that the book be used
The board has been considering and acting
upon rules of order for its own government,
and in that connection the subject was act
ed upon.
This volume written with all the parti-
Fan bias and vrulence of desertcr from
the State to assist the rebellion, was re-
viewed in The Wig some months ago, i'm
medately after its publication, and in adj
tlition to it's rebel falsehoods, its numerous
historical inaccuracies were exposed. Has
it come to this that returned rebels from
the Southern armies are to not only be pro-
vided for out of the Public School and other
funds of the State. but their vile copperhead
trash, and misrepresentation are 10 DC
foisted onto the schools, and placed in the
hands of the children to be taught as his
torical truthss We trust that the people
will mark these things and treasure them
up in remembrance as counts in the great
indictment against the copperhead party
which has striven to turn everything back
in the State, into the old rebel channels
where it ran before the rebellion. Millions
of the public money have been given away
within the past two years to eN-rcbels and
their sympathizcrs, and we now behold the
party placing in the Public Schools, as
text books of history, the most contempti-
Bile caricatures of history ever penned. Ex-
ira pains seem to have been taken by the
Baltimore School Board to introduce this
trash as history, for the report says sit is
made obligatory that the book be used.
