The Democratic State Central Committee of
Maryland. at the meeting at Annapolis yester-
day, upon the suggestion of Hon. Frederick
Stone, Member of Congress from the fifth dis
tcict, adopted resolutions proclaiming the fidelity
OF the Democratic party OF Maryland to the
Constitution Of the United States and recon-
mcnding that ''the Registration laws Of the
State should be so altered as to conform to the
provisions of the Fifteenth Amendment, and
enable all persons who will then be entitled to
register under the laws of this State to register
and ayan themselves OF the privileges of the
elective franchise"
So this was the business of the meeting as was
suspected, and the Maryland Democracy stand
committed TO the policy of "a conciliating" the
cOlOred voters under the Fifteenth Amendment.
The Baltimore Gazette, a leading Democratic
paper OF Maryland, however, makes hot oppose
ton TO the Standardization" involved by the
State IN going back upon its previous action in
rejecting the Fifteenth Amendment as illegal
and unconstitutional by vote of the Legislature
and denounclng and repudiating it by q 1berna-
tOrial message. The Gds>tfs argues, despond-
entity, that they "cannot outwit the Radicals, "
and that sit is useless for in Maryland to at
tempt a game IN which our Northern and more
scheming brethren have signally failed" there
fore IL urges the Democracy of Maryland to be
true to themselves, sand not unmanfully bend
the neck with undignifed and false humility to
yoke which We can only accept as a humllia-
ton" This is all very fine, but the MARYLAND
Democracy have as keen a relish for power and
the possession OF the feSh-pots as any other De
mocraey; and they will not, quite evidently, al
low any superfine sentiment, or party record on
the question of negro suffrage to stand In the
way OF making the eolored vote available for
their side. This is sensible on their part. and
will work well for the colored people, also, Sc
curing for them better treatment, better wages,
and more educational ADVANTAGES

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The first ma
tional bank to issue gold notes as per pro-
visions of the recent act of Congress will
be established in Boston on the applica-
ton Of the banking house of Messrs.
kidder, Peabody & Co., of this city.
They will have capital of $500, 600.
The necessary papers in the premises
will be issued by the Comptroller of the
Currency as soon as the matter can be
reached. The only qaestion not settled
Is that relative to the name of the bank.
The department must. of course, prepare
new notes. 1t will probably be three
months before the institution gets into
operation. Correspondence has been had
with other houses in relation to this style
of bank, but none have made direct and
formal application as yet for authority.
Yesterday, secretary Robson ordered
500 more men to be engaged in the vari
Gus navy yards and the work Of repairing
and remodeiing of vessels on hand and
these being daily placed out of commits
sion to be vigorously carried on.

NAPOLEON DENIAL 1t is prob
able that no official statement made
by a government, was eyer so uni
versally disbelieyed as Napoleon's denial
Of his responsibility for the secret prot
ocol which proposed the absorption of
Belgium by France. In the first place,
the treaty, being wholly in the interest of
France, could not by any possibility have
been rejected by Napoleon had it been
offered by Prussia. Again, it neither gives
nor secures anything to Prussia Why
then should Bismars propose it? Finally,
it is on file in the archives Of Prussia in
Count Benedetti's hand writing When
did the French Minister become the
amanuensis of the Prussian Chancellor :?
And yet Napoleon afhrms that the treaty
was both proposed by Prussia and re-
jected by France-two things equally i'm
possible On the face of the treaty.
In short, there is not the least doubt
that Napoleon in this matter has very
deliberately lied, under circumstances
where nobody believes his lie. He has
thrown away his veracity for nothing.
But that perhaps, is nothing new with
Napoleon III.

A Curious Bit of History.

While people are specializing on the
causes of the war. between France and
Germany, it may not come amiS to relate
a curious piece Of history as to the cause
of the revolt of the thirteen colonies
ernment had not thought of taxing the
American colonies until after the seven
years war, which ended with the peace
Of Paris, in 1T63.
The next year, 1764, bill was intro
duced in Parliament, and passed, and
received the royal signature, which indI-
Gated disposition to fleece the colonies
with taxes and excuses 1t was the first
of a series, and commences in the follow
ing terms: Whereas it is just and
necessary that a reuenue be raised az
america for defraying the expenses Of
defending. protecting, and securing the
same, we, the Commons, &C., give and
grant your Majesty George Ill., the
sum Of, &C." Here followed specifca-
ton of duties Of certain articles of foreign
produce, such as tea, sugar, molasses,
coffee, indigo, silks, and calicoes. Such
was the ayowed and ostensible object of
this obnoxious act The anticipated rev
enue to be derived therefrom was to be
appropriated to very different object
than the defence and protection of the
colonies, and it may be new to most read
ers to learn the real purpose for which
this tariff was imposed. In Tudor S
Life Of Otis" we, have this curious ex-
PLANTATION of the reason for levying the
taxes that eventually cost Great Britain
her thirteen colonies: George LII,
came to the throne two or three wears
before, young man, surrounded by fat
terlng courtlers, who frequently declain-
ed against the meanness of his palace,
which they insisted was wholly unworthy
Of such country as Great Britain, and
SO pulssant a monarch as himself Moth
ing but splendid palace would do
one IN consonance with his royal conse-
quence. The King was fond of archi-
lecture, and therefore more readily lis
tened to suggestions which struck him as
palpabiy true. A beautiful site was ac-
cordlngly selected In Hyde Park, near
the Scrpentlne River, and the King ap-
piled to his ministers on the subject.
His Majesty was informed that the
wants OF the Treasury, after the exhaust
ing wars from which England had just
emerged. were too urgent to admit of a
supply from present means; but propos-
ed that a revenue might be raised in
America to supply the Kings wishes
and erect the magnificent royal structure.
The suggestion was instantly favored by
the King and was quickly followed up
by the enactment of the bill whose pre-
amble is above recited. 1t was in this
way the King was led to consider and
then to consent to the scheme of taxing
the colonies. He got his palace but lost
half continent 1t was the dearest
house that any monarch ever built.

CAUSE OF DELAY The delay in the
military movements on both sides in
Europe, is to be ascribed to the democrat
lzation of the troops from having been
moved by rail, The French were also
delayed on account of the desertion of
the Soth German States, and are neces-
sarily confined to the narrow ground of
the Saar valley. Ia fact, tie entire pre-
conceived plan of the Emperor has been
altered By unforeseen circumstances of
this sort, and he has Jet probably tc
form new one.

BISMARCK AND MoTLEY.-Th New
York Herald has made call on Mr.
Sumner, who relates this incident in the
lives Of these distinguished men Mr..
Sumner said it was curious fact how
intimate Bismarck was with Mr.. Motley
They were educated together at the col
lege at Gottingen, and had been compan-
ions in many land. On one occasion
they were both picked up in the streets
at night and locked up by the guard.
When Bismarck went to Vienna, after
the war with Austria, as his own minis
ter, the first thing he did was to seek
Mr.. Motley and dine with him informal
ly. At the time this created no little I'M
easiness in the diplomatic circles of Eu-
rope. It was generally regarded as an in
dication of some alliance between the
United States and Prussia, but it was
nothing more than renewal Of his old
friendship between two schoolmates.
