A Contrast.

The Now York World has the following
appropriate tribute to Col. Levin Woolford,
our candidate for Comptroller:
The Comntrollership of the State of Mary
land is, we take it, n modest office, with u
small salary, and duties not onerousin com
lnonwealth whose public virtue is in the as
cendant, and where robbing the State is as
uncongenial rs robbing on the highway
The other day, nj Baltimore, the Democratic
Convention nominated for this office the pres
ent incumbent, Mr.. Levin Woolford and we
had great pleasure in publishing his manly
and modest letter Of acceptance. In it is one
sentence which reperNs NJ has brought close
ly and pleasantly Ia our view. At the close
of his letter, MIR. Wooliord said Before
close, however, must make to YOU the an
nouuccmnnt tat in no event and under no
circumstances can again be candidate for
this position. Should l he so fortunate as to
he elected this term and serve out my term,
| must he a,iowcd TO go home and provide
for Nv fslitils ard IT," wants of my declining
years" s., simply ani modcstly, writes an
humble Stn'" Comntroller, poor man, too,
to whom tie en-" uncn'S of office arc an OBJ |
jcct, but VIII ST able, being an honest man
and q G elilema0, 70 reconcile it to his con- |
scisrco & lie upon the public. He has de- |
pec@eGt family, tut il never seems to have oc-
c.!jr.l 10 ,''m ttat he might billet his poor |
relatives, b""'hers.in-law and all, upon the
State Prcs'-ry; get his son to West Point
and have is fber made postmaster. Then
too, he hes ! IS disnterestedness been sin
gu!ar>r obvious Of his own interest. The !
Maryland Leg Stature hes adjourned. 1t new
er suggested self To him in the closing hours
of their session TO make an argument by
which ais So Hry and theirs ellould be doubled |
md provision made for general md whole
sale plunder. such schemes do not thrive
on u" hanks OF the Severn, however it may
be on she Potomac. Woolford goes into his
retirement .. tie end of his second term,
whsch he nokes no effort to prolong, to work
for his living. No elcemosynary fund has
been raised for hn. When he was first elect
ed there wos 10 s,rewd provision made for

One Who SOUGHT UTTER OBLIv1oN.-
very singular suicide was that of a
man whose body was discovered OH the
beach at Newport, Il. L, last week. He
was apparently being who sought utter
oblivion, and to this end he took unusual
precaution to destroy all evidence of his
identity. A farmer found him fiBt,
stretched ON the sandy beach, having as,
parently been dead several days. It was
that OF young man of thirty years or
thereabouts, about Ave feet seven inches
in height, with short, dark hair, and
thick mustache. He was neatly dressed
in dark blue overcoat, dark blue frock
and gray trousers; black felt hat and a
pair Of Lisle thread gloves lay, beside
him, and slso;his boots, Which be, had
renoysd The position in which be lay
was quiet and without evidence Of strug-
gle; he lay on his side, fsce downward,
the head resting ona black valise OF
glazed leather, between which and the
face was cambric handkerchief. BY
his side were two brown paper bags,
containing biscuits and figs; also three
bottles and an empty tumbler. Two of
these bottles were empty and smelt only
of perfumes; the third was small bottle
containing chloral in granulated state.
The labels had been carefully picked
from the bottles; the name had been cut
from the handkerchief, and, as it ulti.
mately proved, from every article of
clothing and from the valise itself. Even
a cane, which was near by--a common
hooked stick apparently had once borne
initials, which Had been carefully erased.
