For the Sentinel.
Mr.. Enron: My attention has been called
TO an article in the Washington Star, in which
it is stated that am in sympathy and co-ope-
ration with the Radical party in this county,
because of my dissatisfaction with the leaders
and ofice-seekers of the Democratic party
This occasoned me much surprise, as no one
acquainted with my antecedent political opn-
ions and conduct and present views, could
state or think that any mismanagement of the
leaders of the Democratic party could make
me aifi late with the Radical party, or any
other party organized to rule the people or
control public affairs upon any other than
Democratic principles.
In accepting the Judgeshp. felt that
would best vindicatc the wisdom of the party
and the people who elected me by SO far alb
staining from active participation in party
politics that my political opponents could not
properly distrust my fairness and impariialty
in the discharge of my official duties. But in
becoming non-combatant never intended it
to be understood that ! was inclined TO leave
the Democratic party and unite with the Rad
icals, whose principles tend to the destruction
of local sef-government, individual freedom,
and the happiness of both the white and col
ored race, and were now out Of Office, would
be found in the ranks of the great Democratic
party battling as heretofore for its success.
If an army of 35, 900 Africans, led by white
men, had invaded the State with the ayowed
purpose of subjugating it and establishing a
government in con formity with their own
views in which the negro race should have
supremacy, and 25, 600 renegade white men
had here united with them, should as soon
have been found with those renegade whites
MS to be now found with the Radical parry,
where find 25 900 white Marylanders uniting
with 35, 600 negroes in the effort to subjngate
Should this unnatural effort prove successful,
it will, in my opinion, be not only ruinous to
the best interests of both races, but subver-
sive of all society, and | cannot be made TO
rest under the suspicion Of contributing to or
desiring such result.
1t is true the white race in this State has
acqnesced in the alleged right Of the black
race to vote in State and local elections, but
that question has not yet been judicially de-
termined, but one thing is certain beyond
peradventure, and that is that the white race
will never be subjugated TO the government
of the black race either by bayonets or ballots
even though the latter be aided by few ire
sponsible whites. do not wish to be under
stood as hottie TO the blacks, on the contrary
| feel the kndest interest in them, but do
not think it kindness 10 array them ir fierce
political antagonism to the white race as the
Radical party is endeavoring to do.

Still there is much to be done, and its success
will, in great measure, depend upon its
members, and with all their best e"deavors,
opposition from certain classes and corpora
tons is to be expected. Still it should not be
sought by its members, because the principles
upon which the Order is founded will uti-
matey prevail, and place agriculture where it
justly belongs--in the van Of progress and en-
lightenment. GLAUCUS.

THE BRIGHTER OUTLOOK. Speaking of the
late financial trouble, the Baltimore Sun,
says The most dcplorabe feature of the late
financial panic is the stoppage Of large esab-
lshments in several cases, mostly in connec-
ton with the production ofraroad machinery
and rolling stock, though there have been
suspensions of one or two other large manu-
factories But the aspect is now Frightening.
Some banks that had suspended are resuming,
gold is coming from England, exchange is
again saleable, and grain and produce may
continue TO move, and Wall street, as the
opening Of the stock board yesterday shows,
is rectus in curia. The currency ought no
longer to stagnate for it has been increased
through the operations Of the government,
some twenty odd millions. And now fercely
the demand for the resumption Of specie pay
ments. From the first we felt that the tumb-
ling down and crushing ont Of rotten things
would tend 10 bring us nearer the condition
necessary for the contamination of that most
desirable end, but the initiation which was
given the already abundant paper currency in
| the midst of the panic may somewhat mar the
prospect for effecting the speedy return to
specie payments. The sentiment and convic-
ton in its favor, however, has been greatly
strengthened among the masses Of the people,
and whatever has been thus gained should not
be lost. The New York Tribune of yesterday
earnestly suggests the converting of Congress
in an extra session for the sole object of legis-
lating for immediate specie resumption but
the idea of assembling that body, at once ex-
cites apprehensons 1t is the legislation of
Congress which primarily has made all the
mischief. Let all the people, however, firmly
hold on to the idea that our financial system is
speedily to be brought back to 'fhard pan"
and thus remain ever afterwards. 1t is the
| only hone

A Man CoUGHs UP GoLD DolbAn.-For
some time past, young gentleman employed
on the Evansville and Chicago Railroad has
been troubled with a cough, for which he has
been taking medicine from DR.. Newell, but
without any good effect being apparent. A.
few days ago he was taken with a severe III OF
coughing, in the course Of which he coughed
up gold dollar, and since that time he has
entirely recovered from the pain in his lungs
and the irritating cough. While wondering
how the gold coin could have got into his
lungs, he recollected tina, some months ago he
had two or three gold dollars, and when 60
ing TO bed one night he remembers to have one
of them in his mouth. When he came to look

that he had one less than he supposed, and bis
opinion now is that he went to sleep with the
gold dollar in his mouth, and that while
asleep it got down his throat Eean'riHe

THE RAvAGEs of the yellow fever at Shreves-
port, Louisiana, are appalling. Four hundred
and forty deaths since the first of September.
A wall of sorrow comes from the devoted city,
and the cry for help cannot go unheard by the
generous and the good. The streets are de-
serted and all business suspended. The few
inhabitants that remain are engaged in the
kindly Office of ministerng to the sick, liable
themselves to be stricken down at any mo-
ment. Men, in many instances, are nursing
women-women nurses being scarce-and
have to perform offices which, in ordinary cir
Gums stances, would be out of place.

A HAsTY MARRrAGE.-In a Salt Lake City
Court, recently, during the trial Of perjury
case, small party, consisting of two ladies and
three men, hustled into the court room. The
noise of their entrance caused momentary
suspension Of proceedings, when one of the
ladies whispered something 10 the judge at the
same time handing him slip Of paper. His
honor seemed to understand what was needed
and after asking two briefquestions said aloud,
"Then, by virtue and authority of my office,
as magistrate, pronounce you man and wife.
Come tomorrow for your certificate. Go on
with yonr testimony Mr.. Stevens" and before
the spectators had discovered that marriage
ceremony had been performed the case was re-
snmed, and the bridal party retired as expe-
dtiously as they entered.

A dreadful calamity appears to have over
taken Apalachicola, in Florida, in the tornado
which on the. 18Th instant swept ever the
town. A gentleman writing from that place
TO his brother in Atlanta SAYS that the dest-uc-
ton was almost complete. Warehouses, stores
and dwellings were blown down or uuroofed,
merchants lost nearly all their stocks in store,
and universal wreeking of the shipping,
ng-boats, &C., in port ensued In the
neighborhood of the town the orange groves
were almost totally ruined. The writer pre-
diets that Apalachicola will never recover
from this blow, and in describing the appear
ance of the ruin left by the hurricane he SAYS
that the town is hardly recognizable. No re-
ports of the loss of human life are sent but it
seems scarcely TO be expected that in so gene
raj crash individuals should have been spared
