THE TABLEAUx. The Ladies of the Episco-
pal Church in Rockville did handsome thing
land how could they do otherwise) on We'd
of the Court House was beautifully lighted up
by Chinese lan;erns, booths had been erected
and ladies sat at the door, to dispose of the
good things they had for sale-even Rebecca
''sat at the well )" and if she did not draw wa
ter, she drew up ice-cream rich enough to
please the palate of the Shah of Persia. In the
meantime the Court House was filled with
beautiful ladies and patronizing gentlemen
who were admiring the still more beautiful
Tableaux. We doubt if the representations of
"The Seasons Cinderella" Rory Moore
The "Gipsey Fortune Teller, - Rustic Lovers
"Lalla Rookh," "Night and Morning." The
"Brigand Family, -, The "Circassian Slave"
'Medley," could have been much better DONE
We but speak the common sentiment when we
say the ladies acquitted themselves handsome
ly and the exhibition gave general satisfaction,
with the exception of the loss of time between
the pieces, but this could not be avoided. Up
the stairs too, supper was SET which king
might envy, and to which ample justice was
done.
On Thursday night tho scene around Grand
mothers Trunk was indescribably rich, and
then Grandmother behaved so well, and her
pretty little girls-everybody was pleased. In
truth, all was done we'll.
REPUBLICAN NoMINATIoNs.-A County Con-
vention of the Republican party was held in
Rockville on Saturday last, to appoint dele
gates TO attend the State Convention which is
to assemble in Frederick City, on the 18th
inst, TO nominate candidates for State officers.
The following gentlemen were appointed =
Messrs. Nathan Allnutt, Philemon NJ. Smith,
Frank Miller. Thos. England, Robt. G. Thrift.
County Convention is to be held in Rock
vile, on the goth inst, TO nominate candi-
dates for County officers.
1t will be observed that of the delegation
to the State Convention no colored voter has
been appointed-they have been left out in
the cold. 1t may be some member will "rise
to explain"

The colored people who have labored so
long and faithfully in the ranks of the Radi-
cal party are beginning 10 show signs of dis
content. They are beginning to demand q
recognition of their services in something
more tangible than a mere recognition of their
right to vote. They are beginning to see that
they are made mere stepping-stones by which
their white brethren may climb into power
They are beginning to hold meetings to cor
rect what they call "the narrow policy and
unjust discrimination Of an utterly selfish and
bigoted Federal ffice-holding aristocracy, and
the prostitution OF the principles of a progress
sive party to the advancement of sels-constitu-
ted leaders" The language embraced in the
quotation points is taken from printed no.
tice in the Prince Georgian, paper published
at Upper Marlborough, calling meeting Of
the colored people on the Goth instant to take
this matter into consideration And it is hint
ed in other quarters that a National Conven-
ton is to be called some time in December to
set forth the facts and their rights There is
evidently trouble brewing, and the Admins
tration will have 10 send forth its missionare:
-oficeholders we mean-to instruct thesC
people, and TO inform them that the places o
profit ard honor were not intended for them
but that they must be content with the hon.
orable position of voter. They are begin
ming to see that all the Conventions Of tn,
party are run as ''close corporations" in tn,
interest Of oficc-holders and iiincratisg Con
gressmen The end IS not yet.

WILLIAM GRADY,

THE DUTY OF THE Hour. -"Union, Conces-
zion, Harmony" were once tho watchwords
of party that controlled the destnies OF this
country for more than half century, and,
doubtless, would have controlled it at this
very hour, but for the discordant counscls
which prevailed in 1860, and which led to re-
suits 80 disastrous. We advert 10 this fact
now, more for tho purpose of drawing lesson
therefrom, than TO revive unpleasant reminis-
ccncics If History be PHILOSOPHY teach
ing BY example," then the one furnished in
the fact alluded TO, should impress upon the
mind of every democrat who is true to the
principles of his party, the Importance of I'm
ion. If on the battlefield every private acted
rs n general officer, or refused to obey the or
ders Of the commanding general, everyone
knows that that army would fall an easy prey
to the enemy. Just SO it is with that party
which enters political contest with divided
forces-they open the way to the admission of
the enemy, and when night closes upon the
conflict they find that all is lost-the forces
demoralized and never again fit TO enter the
feld-while the enemy takes possession of
everything. This will be the case in Mont
gomery county if discordant counscls prevail
every Office in the county will be passed into
the hands of the Radicals, and every member
of the Legislature. No other result need be
expected. But this can easily be avoided by
uniting the party and permitting reason to
govern instead Of passion, then all will be we'll
Even now, We are pleased to learn, Cracklin
District is all right-by-the-way Cracklin is
always rght--and like good democrats, come
mp to the support of the ticket. There is no
boiling in Crackln, but unity and harmony
prevail In fact, we learn, that there is but lit
ale or no disaffecton in any of tho Districts,
with the exception of Rockville, and it is car
nestly hoped that harmony may be restored in
in cold column in November next, and give
their undivided support to the democratic
ticket-thc regular nominees of tue party. This
IS the spirit TO ensure successfully other
course will produce disaster and ruin to the
party. If the County is lost this Fall, it will
be lost for years to come, and all who know
the character of the majority Of the Radical
party in this county-that majority being
black-canno. fail to know what the charac-
ter of the legislation would be, as the repre-
sentative must obey the will of his constituent
cy. If you complain of high taxes now, how
much greater will be the complaint if the
taxes should be doubled or quadrupled. We
have but TO cite TO Louisiana and South Caro-
lna as memorable proofs of Radical rule and
negro supremacy. The pictures given of the
ruin and desolation in these States are not
not overweight. They are, indeed, but too
true, and if people will, Sampson-like, pull
down the temple Of liberty and crash them
selves beneath the ruins-why, be it so No
mourning after viii rear the shattered columns.
BE warned in time, and net like men in the
living present

TWAS Sam Patch who said "that some
things could be done as well as others" when
he jumped over Gcnesee Falls. 1t was the last
jump Sam ever made. And so we aPprehend
will be the case of Messrs. Wise and Donald
son who propose making the voyage TO Eu-
rope in balloon Of huge Dimensions and
which ihas been in course OF construction at
Brooklyn, N. Y, for the past few weeks. This
balloon is now ready, and the gentlemen pro-
posed starting on their aerial voyage on We'd
nesday evening last. They expect TO enter the
eastward mir current, the velocity of which, nj
its greatest height, is thought to be thou
sand miles an hour, but they do not propose
TO rise to that height, but TO take more mod
crate speed. Air currents are as well known
as the currents of the ocean, but so generally
understood, and herein the danger lies, for il
is not known whether they are subject to any
disturbing influences. Messrs Wise and Dom
aldson expect 10 reach Europe in two days,
but will not complain much II the journey
takes week. Great doubts are entertained
as 10 the success Of the experiment, but, if
successful great problem will have been
solved.
