RECKORn'S MIIIa

BALTIMORE COUNTY, August Ath 1872.
MIR. EDITOR: A gentleman of my acquaint-
ance who is strong Democrat and who was for
mcrly school-mate of Henry A. Wise, of Va,
called on me few days ago and made these
remarks:
Said he, can't hold out any longer after read
ing Judge Blacks letter. l have come to the
rational conslusion to support Greeley although
IL VIII be n bitter pill to swallow.
lie seemed to have viewed the question from
the wrong standpoint, but as soon us he had the
subject discussed and explained, as it fully was
III the letter of Judge Black, he came to the con-
cluslon to accept the situation even attn sacri-
flee, as great many of us have done
When such great men as Gov. Vance, August
Belmont, Senator Doolittle, Judge Black Gov.
Holman and our own noble Gov WHITE and
hundreds OF others can see the propriety of en-
dorsing Mr.. Greeley it would seem q folly for
any person who really has an interest in the DEM
ocratic party to do otherwise than to use all
their influence in his favor.
1t won't do to stay at home. The only way
to keep Grant out is to put Greeley in, and the
only way to get him in is to go to the polls and
vote for him. And then if he don't carry out
the principles of the platform on which he is
elected it will be the first time in the history of
his life in which he deyiated from the path of
duty. Democrats, don't talter, don't contend,
don't listen to the croakings Of lunatics nor to
the fiery effusions of misguided patriots, but
rather listen to the voice OF distress issuing from
the heart of beloved country, calling on you for
assistance. Arise then, throw OIL the woke of
slavery, put on the mein of masters and throw
the banner OF liberty to the breeze.

To Correspondents.
Incompetency of the Radical Administra
tiOn.

Ex-Governor Bigler, of Pennsylvania, has
written letter to the chairman of the Dem
ocratic State Committee, in which he ar
Taigns the Radical party for its misdeeds, in
the following language:
1t has remained to men in authority since
the war to deal with its evil effects or lega-
ces, and for this work they have shown them
selves eminently incompetent. So far from
mitigating these they have magnified them,
their own acts and policy becoming the most
alarming part Of the evil. These evils have
shown themselves in the widest extrava-
gance in the use of the public money, in the
abuse ofofficial authority, amounting in some
instances to on the part of the Executive and
Congress to fragrant inroads upon the Con-
stltutlon, and also in alarming attempts to
extend Federal rule to the domestic affairs
States. Under the auspices of which meas
ures the impoverished States We're overun by
class of hungry and greedy adventures,
harassing the people and eating out their
substance, and Who when resisted in their
wrongs, would raise the howl of insubordi-
nation against the whole South But aboy G
all, in harmful influence upon the peace of
the country, stands the practices of the Radi-
Gals OF reminding the prejudices passions and
hates OF the war by magnifying the stories of
carpet-baggers in the South, and then turning
these passions to mere partisan account in
current elections. Thoughtful men have
studied this picture with alarm. At the end
OF seven years the wounds ofthe war seem as
fresh as ever, and experience tells us that un-
der such constant aggravations as we have
witnessed, they will never heal they will be
fostering sores in the remote future.

largely the losers for want of this enterprise?
Would not there be number of cases removed
to our court from other counties? When
you talk to persons of the adjoining county and
ask them why they do not send their business to
our court they invariably tell you that you have
no railroad conveniences; and sir has there not
been hundreds of dollars, yes thousands of dol
lars, kept out of our town and county by not
having a railroad? Every house in Bel Air and
the country for miles around that could accom-
modate summer boarders would be filled for
weeks during the warm season. and they could
not come here without spending money with us.
The z. w. and B. Railroad has made very lib
eral offer and have no doubt that they might
be induced to do more if our people were to
show disposition to begin the road, if the cor
porators would take this matter in hand Let
us see if we cannot build the road. Let there be
men appointed to go amongst the people and
see if thay can't increase our subscriptions there
are men among us who will do it free of charge.
Then Bel Air will be no longer fenced in vii
age, but town of importance and II benefit to
the county. s

CORRESPONDENCE.

Mr.. EDIToR-Sir: Can you tell us what has
become our railroad? Is It numbered with the
things that are past, or are we to have it made ?
Is it true that responsible party has offered to
make the road for what any responsible engin-
ecr will say 1t is worth to make it That the
contractor will take twenty thousand dollars of
stock in the road Now, sir if we are to have q
road why not commence at once and have it fin
ished by spring or summer? The twenty thous-
and dollars offered with the already subscribed
amount, would increase the subscription to nine
ty odd thousand dollars. Cannot the balance of
the one hundred thousand be raised | think
it could be raised. Would it not pay the prop
