testimonials, like the following:
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1873-11-29

The Democrat complains last Satur-
day, as one really hurt: and as one who
had been unfairly and badly used; all the
result of "a paragraph which appeared in
The Wing the week previous, which char
acterized the leading editorial of that paper
of the sth inst, as Pharasaical''
In speaking Of not hearing the sermons
of Rev. Pencil Coombe, delivered in the
Presbyterian Church in the morning, and
the Methodist Church in the evening, on
the Sunday proceeding. Tile Democrat
used the following language
1t was our good fortune on last Sabbath,
to attend divine service in house dedicat-
ed to God, and therefore it was not our
misfortune to be compelled to listen to a
lecture on whisky and drinking in
stead of Gospel sermon.
We were not insulated in charactersing
the above language as Pharasaical, but it
was the subject of very general remark,
and by the best established rules of rhetor-
lie and composition, it will bear that con-
struction more appropriately than any
other. That the editor intended his
language to convey different impression
than what it really does express, we are
willing to believe, since his earnest dis
claimer of Saturday last. But if writer
is so careless in his remarks as to say what
he does not intend to say, he should not
complain if the public take him at his
word, and subject his language to unfavor-
able criticism. The Democrat stands in the
position of one who is bound to explain
and apologize for its slips, and not complain
of ill-usage. To quote from an essay read
at some former religious assemblage, does
not alter the status of the last profession
of faith. A man may say some very charit-
able things Or do some very Christian acts,
and afterward steal, lie, or defend whisky
and drinking" His former good
works do not atone for his bad deeds latter
ly committed.
The editor having read an essay filled
with Christian charity before an Episco-
palian Convocation held in Kent county, on
a former occasion, does not exhonorate
him from making such reflections on other
houses dedicated to God," as the above
paragraph quoted contains. He was not
then as now so actively engaged in the
service of the party dedicated to " whisky
and dram drinking"
But we are willing to concede that he
did not mean that any Churches which
permitted the Rev. Pencil Coombe to raise
his voice against the evils and the sin of
intemperance in their pulpits, were not
houses dedicated to God" The language
unfortunately employed was such as to
create very general impression that such
was meant, and he stands fair subject for
offering an apology and explanation, rather
than a complainment of ill-treatment by
The Wing and the community at large
We will try in future to bear in mind that
The Democrat does not always mean what
it says. 1t doubtless felt just then under
many weighty obligations to the advocates
of unrestricted liquor license, and wished in
spirit of gratitude, to make a proper
Acknowledgements. "Only that and moth
ing more"

RpDOrt of the Postmaster General.

The Report of Postmaster General Cres-
well, for 1878, is an interesting document,
and by all impartial papers, is pronounced
an able Report. The ordinary revenues Of
the Department for the fiscal year ending
June 9Oth, were S2a, 996, TAI. 81, an increase
of 1,OS1, $500 over the preceding year.
The expenditures were So, 1926, 1886 more
than the year ending June Goth, 1872, the
total expenditures being Sc, 0SS, 204.10 in
excess of the receipts. The number of
post offices in operation in the United
States, on June 30th, 1873, was 33, PA, an
increase of 1881 during the year. The
total number of employees in the Depart
ment throughout the country is 47,364.-
There were received at the Dead-letter
Office 4, 402, 1857 letters, of which 26S, 429
were foreign, representing a value of So,
795, 764.11. OF these letters only /, e2G, 1Os
| we're delivered to their owners or writer's,
but the amount represented by them was
$5,377, 923.s7.
The popularity of the Money Order sys
tenn inaugurated by Postmaster General
| Creswel, is established by this Report
1856, CSC orders were issued during the
year under review, the aggregate value of
which was $57,516, 216.79, an increase of
1885 per cent.
| No less gratifying to the Postmaster
General is the result of the repeal of the
Franking Privilege. Mr.. Creswell is con-
fined to the last quarter of the current
year, ending Sept. 30th, 1s73,-the law not
taking effect till July list, 1S73-in show
ing the increased revenues to the Depart
ment over the corresponding period of
| 1872. The issue of stamps, newspaper
wrappers, etc., exclusive of official stamps,
amounted in that period to $5S3, 1913, or
1875 per cent.
Mr.. Creswell urges strongly the scheme
brought before the country in his last an
nual Report, of "Postal Savings Deposi-
tories, commonly styled Post Office Saw
ings Banks. The operations Of the British
Post Office Savings Banks, is described and
statistics of these institutions published.
Mr.. Creswell proposes to submit to Con-
gress at an early day a bill embodying the
necessary legislation to put the system in
operation. The Postal Telegraph is again
urged in his Report at some length, and
he recommends the construction of all such
lines as may be needed, under the direction
of corps of competent engineers of the
army.
The Report recommends that the pub
liners OF newspapers be compelled to pay
postage on papers where mailed. This
measure will not fail to be unpopular with
county publishers, and in connection will
the law restoring the postage on county
papers, passed by the last Congress would
prove particularly onerous on all country
papers, tending to increase the advantages
already enjoyed by the large city publica'
tions, over their weak country brethren
The Report does not recommend the repea
of the clause which restored the paymen,
of postage on county papers and ex
changes, and thus tacitly acquiesces in the
measure. If the Democratic leaders ir
Congress show their customary enterprise
they will be likely to take sides with the
country press, which will not fail to be a
popular movement.

Breech Loaders-The Parker Gun.
Few sportsmen at the present are satisfi-
ed without the possession of q breech-load-
en- and certainly no one can fully com
mand and avail himself of ali the cha
Of hunting who does not possess one
The decrease in the quantity of the game,
its shyness, and the rregularity of its ap
proach of late in the west have greatly
changed sporting conditions, and compelled
resort to the most facile and perfect i'm
provement in guns, and the breech- loader
may almost now be considered as essential
ly an advance over the muzzle- loader as
the percussion cap has been rated over the
fiint-lock. Among the many varieties of
breech- loading shot guns the Parker gun
commends itself to those who have used it
as unexcelled, uniting all the attainable
requisites for perfect piece; and it is
probably in more general use and better
known in the western states than any
other.
Its simplicity of construction, ready ma
nipul alton las the hand is naturally in the
proper position for opening the barrel after
discharge, thus saving time and motoin)
and the invariable excellence of the barrels
are recommendations to which every man
who has used the gun will emphatically
respond.
Sportsmen with thirty years experience
in bird warfare in the west, who have seen
and handled these guns pronounce verdict
in their favor-that they are all that can
be desired. Sometimes we hear those who
have substituted breech- loader for a long
and favorite piece, say that sit is handy
but not so strong as the old gun" Not
so of the Parker-its shooting qualities
uniformly satisfy-the barrel workmanship
is of the best There was time among
us when the great profusion of game made
the time lost loading of little or no account.
Now, when bird flights are but occasional
and opportunity must be used to its ut
most ere it passes by. the hunter who can
load and fire six or eight times to his muz-
zle- loading comrades twice, has superior
ity such as no sportsman can put up with,
and when he exchanges his gun for new
pattern he wants the best. We advise all
| who desire strong shooting durable,
handy breech-loade to buy Parker
Buy it, try it, and you'll never deny it.

The Postmaster General was the first
of the Cabinet officers to finish his report,
and, contrary to custom, furnished copies
to the press in advance of its transmission
to Congress.
The report of the Secretary of War is
printed, but awaits General Sherdan's and
several other accompanying papers. The
Secretary of the Navy has commenced but
not yet finished his report; that Of the
Interior is in forwardness
The report of Attorney General Williams
will soon be printed. The diplomatic cor
respondence is partly in type, and will
make several printed volumes. The report
of the Comptroller of the Currency is near
ly ready for the press. All the other re-
ports of heads of bureaus are either in type
or ready for the printer.
The Presidents Message will not be
printed in advance of it's transmission to
Congress. 1t will be manifolded, as here
tofore under President Grants administra-
ton, and copies will be given only to the
local press and for telegraphng. The
report of the Secretary of the Treasury on
the finances will be printed, but not distri-
buted before tue message shall be sent to
Congress.
The public printer has largely increased
his force so as to keep pace with all de-
mands upon his bureau.
