"The President has learned
of SO many cases in which he
has been imposed upon, and
persuaded to make appoint

or having no claim to them,
that he has determined to
cause all such cases to be re-
viewed and corrected. The

write out your advertisement,

Death of Ex-Governor Pratt.

Ex-Governor Thomas G. Pratt, formerly
United States Senator from Maryland during
a period Of eight years, died at his residence,
on ST. Paul street, Baltimore, on the 9th In.
slant, about one o'clock, AFTER = severe Illness
and much suffering FROM disease OF the heart.
Governor Pratt was in hesixty- sixth year Of
his age. Daring his political life, as the re-
cornized leader OF the old Wing party In the
State. he received the highest honors within
the eiGt Of the people OF Maryland, aad In re-
turu rendered the most signal service. At time

Governor Pratt was a native of Washington,
d. O.. ne was educated At Georgetown College.
and studied law and commenced It's practice at
Upper Marlboro, the county teat Of Prince
Georges; he was several times elected 10 the
House of Delegates of MARYLAND. and In Sem
tember. 1886. was chosen member of the State
electoral college To elect n Senate under the
old State eonstl,u,lon. Afterwards. when the
State Senate was elected by the ueople. by
change in the constitution at the sessions Of
1856 and 1887, giving to each county a Senator,
Mr.. Pratt was elected State Senator from
Prince Georges. TO ,erye for six wears.
In lsl4, after an exciting contest between
himself and Mr.. James Carroll. Mr.. Pratt wa,
elected Governor of mi. State for the term Of
three years. Al the session Of the Legislature

We have several times referred TO the
vague expectation on the part of th.
public that the Supreme Court Of the
United States would declare the legal
tender act to be unconstitutional, and
now the Washington correspondent Of
the New York journal Of Commerce,
intimates that such decision has al
ready been reached, although, for OBJ
vious reasons, not yet promulgated
The Journal thinks it very likely that
the runners about the prospective returr
to specie payment, at FIRST credited to
Secretary Boutwell,, and aiterward de-
MED BY him, have grown out of this
opinion Of the court, Of which hint
may have been given, and it adds
"0ur habitual readers know that we
have expressed but one opinion on this
subject from the beginning. The act
will be annulled ere long, either by
Congress or the court. A repeal by the
national legislature would be great
blessing TO the nation, but decision OF
the highest court against its consiitu.
tionality would do more for the national
credit aud the public prosperity than
any other event which is within the
range OF probabilities.
"0nce let it be understood through
all our borders that contract for the
payment Of money must be settled as
agreed upon BY the equivalent Of the
coin, and a stimulus win be given to the
trade and industrial enterprise that will
set every good thing aglow with fresh
activity, Once let it be published
abroad that the United States not ouly
does not propose to pay her creditors IN
a paper promise, but that under our
constitution she could not mako such u
tender legal even if it were honest, aud
the national credit will bound to a
height it has not attained for years.
And the decision will satisfy reason and
common sense. Il will be righteous
Judgment, and stand, let us hope, Tor
all time as barrier against the repeti
tioa of such legal fiction, the most
demoralizing 10 every moral and mater
ial interest ever attempted in the his.
tory OF the nation."
