hold. by unrestricted license, have been
allowed TO over-master the good traits in,
her really fine character. At least, snch
is my opinion, ,iandaI dare say there are
few who have had better opportunities
of judging. iIknow little of her atpre-
sent, meeting her ias I do, only in society.
Nevertheless, as it is an incontrovertible
fact, that o. woman who does not enjoy
peace at home, cannot find it elsewhere,
I suppose must coincide with Eugenia,
in thinking her unhappy. Be that as it
may, with all her accomplishments and
all the admiration her intellectual bril-
lianoy, elioits, would not, for aught on
earth, exchange places with Cornelia
Raymond"
''There must be something behind the
scenes, which I don't understand" re-
piled Mr.. Lyle. "From worldly point
of view. Mrs. Raymond is in every sense
an enviable woman-handsome, at least,
according to that high tribunal le beau
monde. though never thought 30; dis
tinguished for great intellectual powers,
rich, courted, admired, and the wife of
as noble-hearted man as ever breathed;
what is there to darken existence or make
her unhappy"

The Spider in the Air.

Let the Post Master General rejoice
The Cecil Democrat has returned again to
its first love, abusing Mr.. Creswcl. 1t
compares him TO the spider in the air,
which, to obscure eyes, seems to float on
nothing. Nevertheless, the spider is Sc
curely fixed in its suspended position by a
strong silken thread Of its own weaving. No
natural law is interfered with by the lofty
position maintained in the air; and there is
no mystery or phenomenon at all involved
in the SPIDERS elevation, to any except to
those who having eyes see not Such, for
instance as The Democrat. Mr.. Creswell,
by his own superior talents and energy,
has attained all those cnviablc positions
which Tie Democrat enumerates, namely:
both Houses of Congress and finally TO
have esconced himself securely in the i'm
portant position Of chief of the Post Office
Department of the United States aud
the mystery is no more mystery than
that of the spider. Natural abili les, prop
erly and ,judiciously directed, have accom-
plished those wonderful ito Tie DGmocrat)
results.
1t would not be proper te attribute the
success achieved by a great man to Tic
Democrats inherent vituperation and SIAN
der; but its instinct for wrong is coed eri
dence that those whom it abuses and OPP
poses are lahoring in the right direction,
and are sure finally to be rewarded by the
people.

reorganize as State banks, were concurred
in and the bill passed.
The bill to prohibit the shooting of in
sectiverous birds for two years was amended
so as not to apply to seventeen counties,
viz: Kent, Cecil, Queen Anne's, Caroline,
Dorchester, Wicomice, Somerset, Worces-
ter, Howard, Calvert, Talbot, Washington,
Prince Georges, st. Mary's, Charles, Mont
gomery and Anne Arundel counties, and
passed, which denotes that more than half
the State is in darkness on this question of
vital interest to the farmer
\ petition was received by the Legisla-
ture, near its close, signed numereusly by
ladies, asking that the right of suffrage be
extended to the sex, which was referred to
a special committee of three.
The bill to incorporate the Port Deposit
Gas Light Company was lost by the Senate
failing to act upon it !; and also the bill to
authorize the Mayer and City Council of
Baltimore to endorse the bonds Of the Elk
ton and Massey's Railroad Company, and
the Maryland ana delaware railroad Com-
pany.
The Legislature adjourned sine die, on
Monday night, at 1926, and we shall never
see its like again ia Maryland. Apparently
frightened at the terrible expenditure of
the public money and the debt piled on the
State by the party while it has been in
power; an effort was made by the late legis-
lature to cut down and curtail expenses.
but the fearful heritage of debt entailed
upon the State by the expiring rebel party
will serve the taxpayers of Maryland as a
sovener of that party the remainder of
the nineteenth century, in all probability.

"Paris by Sunlight and Gaslight."

4 ozark dcscriptise Of tie Mysteries and Ms
cries, the Virtues, Wees, Splendors, and
Crimes IF the city Of Paris.-By James
ID. NcCabe-r.
This is the title of the most complete and
attractive book of the day, issued by the
National Publishing Company, Of Philadel-
phia. 1t is large volume of over eight
hundred pages, magnifcently illustrated
with one hundred and fifty fine engravings,
by the best French artists, and from the
pen Of writer who knows Paris well. 1t
is absorbing and entertaining in high dc
gree for, besides containing vast amount
of instruction. it abounds in brilliant and
thrilling descriptions of the darker sides Of
Partisan life. The reader is carried into
the dark and squalid quarters of the Rag
pickers. and is introduced to the houses of
tie sad children OF poverty; the most noted
Lorettcs and queens Of the Dem5-monde are
portrayed with perfect truthiulness; the
terrible inroads which vice of all kinds has
made in French society, is shown with 4
startling vigor; Mabille and its gaictics,
with the voluptuous CaR-con are brought
home to him: and the mad revcls Of the
carnival are reproduced with great accuracy,
The book is, indeed, Paris photographed,
and is attractive and spicy to the reader us
the city itself to the American visitor. Our
author dwells particularly on the ''rapid-
ness - with which our countrymen conduct
themselves amidst the designations and
temptations of the gay city: nor is The
book valuable emily for its sensational quail
tiles. 1t is brim-full OF the pleasantest
historical instruction, and 10 one possess
ing library should fail to place it on his
shelves. 1t is gotten up in exquisite taste
by the Publishers and is quite as attrac-
tive externally as internally. Amongst the
illustrations of this fine work, we notice the
names of Gustave Dore, De Bar, Fichot,
Clergct, and Therond-than whom France
has given no mere brilliant and Successful
workers in the art engraving. 1t is sold
only by subscription.

Connecticut Election.

Connecticut held her annual State cleo
ton for Governor and Legislature, Oh Mon
day last. English the Democratic Gov
ernor, was elected by about 500 majority.
The Republicans have majority in both
branches of the Legislature. We are not
sorry that the Democrats carried the cleo
ton for Governor in Connecticut. Its good
effects are already perceptble in Congress.
1t does that body great deal of good to be
stirred up little by Copperhead victory
occasionally. Soon after the news reached
Washington, we had the following from
there:
THE INCOME TAX RESOLUTION.
1t is understood that Mr.. Sherman will
Tomorrow insist upon the disposition ofthe
lncome-TaX measure, and urge it to final
passage at once. The indications are un-
mist akable in both Houses that the contin-
uance of this tax will be opposed by large
majority. Mcssrs. Boutwell, and Delano
adhere to their recommendations that this
tax should be kept on the statute book, and
the Ways and Means Committee, under
these influences, are said to be about equal
ly divided fer and against the tax. There
has been a middle as to the manner of dis
posing of the question-whether it was to
be by joint resolution declaring that the
old law be continued, or by new bill pro-
viding for the assessment of the tax here
after. 1t seems to be generally conceded
now that the latter is the only proper and
legal course. The opposition of this tax,
IN account of its inIuisitorial character,
lis unequal application and the costly ma
chinery for enforcing it, is very strong
embers of the Houses very generally feel
that the sentiment of the country is against
the continuance of the tax. and that it will
he subject of discussion in the various
Congressional Districts this fall, and that
no member who supports the proposed bill
will stand much chance Of denomination by
his constituents which at this time appear
to be the views Of a large majority in the
House.
Notwithstanding, it will admit of a doubt
whether the Income Tax was as potent as
English's money. The men who make
