The action Of Auditor Clinton and the
city tax collectors in renting their fees
in cases of delinquency for the one mill
tax Of 1871, and issuing the necessary pa
perS for freeing property from the mort
gage office without charge, has given
great public satisfaction and caused large
numbers to promptly settle not only these
but other dues to the State. Such acts of
courteous consideration can not fail to in
crease the feeling, SO noticeably growing
each day, Of confidence in the State adj
ministration. The determined spirit Of
retrenchment and re'orm which animates
Governor Kellogg plainly permeates each
| division Of the executive branch of the
government, and must eventually win it
the hearty support Of all classes of our
population except the large one consti-
tuted Of disappointed ofice-seekers.
The venerable and respected president
Of the Committee of Two Hundred yester
day paid the taxes due for the current
| year upon his real estate in this city,
amounting to five hundred dollars. He
availed himself not of legal bubbles Or
the laws delays, but promptly met his OBJ
legations like worthy citizen. What a
contrast does this conduct Of Mr.. Adams
present to that of Governor" McEnery,
who is reported not to have paid taxes
upon his homestead for a dozen years.

Putting a hoop on the family
flour barrel is an operation that will
hardly bear an encore. The woman
generally attempts it before the man
comes home to dinner. She sets
the hoop up on the end of the
slaves, takes a deliberate aim with
the rolling. pin, and then shutting
both eyes brings the pin down with
all tie force Of ole arm. while the
other lnstiEctively shields her face.
Then she makes a dive for the cam
phor aud unbleached muslin, aud
when tie man comes home she is
sitting back of the stove, thinking
Of >t. stephen and the other mar
tyrs, while burnt dinner and the
camphor are struggling heroically
for the mastery. lie says if size
llad kept her temper she wouldn't
have got hurt. And he visits the
barrel himself and puts the hoop OH
very carefully, and adjusts it so
nicely to the top Of every stave that
only a few smart knocks apparently
are needed to bring it down all
right; then he laughs to himself to
think what a fuss his wife kicked
up over q simple matter that only
needed a little patience to adjust
itself, aud then he gets the hammer,
and tetcheS the hoop a sharp rap on
one side, and the other side flies up.
and catches him on the bridge of|
the nose, filling bis soul with wrath
and bis eyes with tears, and the
next instant that barpel is tiying
across the room, accompanied by
the hammer, and another candidate
tor camphor and rag is enrolled ia

marching toward the graye.-

THE PAYMENT OF SILvER-The pro-
posed resumption of silver payments by the
treasury caused many applications on Sat
urday at the sub-treasury, in New York,
for the conversion Of legal tenders and
fractional currency into silver coin but
the assistant treasurer had not yet received
any instructions from Washington, The
Express says that semi-official advices state
that about 100000 silver coin will be
furnished to the public this week, and adds
@The entire supply of this coin now ac-
tually owned by the government does not
probably exceed s500,O0O, and several
millions would cover the whole amount in
the country. At present the premium on
silver is 3l(d4 per cent, and on the trade
dollar 9(9i0 per cent. The great bulk Of
our former supply Of silver is now in Can
ada. The proper way to resume specie
payments il to begin by paying out silver
but before doing this the government should
own more than s500,000 in silver coin
against 100000, 600 Of paper currency Of
its own, to say nothing OF national bank
circulation. Il looks very much az 10 this
resumption Of silver payments might turn
out to be as great farce as President
Grants letter to Mr.. Williams
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1873-11-01
Feeble Attempt at Specie Payment

As some Of our readers may have
thought the Secretary Of the Treasury in
earnest in his announcement that the De-
partment would pay out silver in change,
we give the actual pleasant little illusion
as seen by correspondent in the New
York Tribune.
The paying out of silver coin to-day by
the United States Treasury was the most
absurd farce that has been seen in WASH
ington for many day. The morning
newspapers had announced that the coin
would be out in circulation to-day, and
the journals in all parts Of the country had
been giving the matter much attention for
the past week or more. Banks and bank
ers from every section had sent orders for
large sums, considerable excitement was
created, and the Secretary was greatly
pleased at his idea. The result of the
attempt, at least SO far as this city is con-
cerned, is ridiculous, and places the Treas
sury on merely the same foundation as
some Of the restaurants and places Of
amusemcnts here which have been paving
out silver in small sums for change for 4
week or more. Two little bags Of silver
were placed on the paying teller's counter
on the opening of the cash room, and these
were heroically guarded by an ample force
Of tellers, counters, and other employees.
A circular in plain characters, laid on the
projecting marble slab, told the eager null
titude that creditors ofthe Government in
presenting checks or warrants for payment,
could receive not to exceed IS Of the
amount due them in silver coin, if they
desired. Many employees of the Depart
ment and number Of citizens went into
the cash room during the day to see the
long-expected process Of paying out silver,
but the bags remained on the counter, and
no silver was seen. Itwas carefully guard
ed during the day, however, and the report
was carried to Secretary Robinson at the
close Of business that less than 500 in
coin had been paid out at the United States
Treasury. This is the result Of Mr.. Rich
ardson's first attempt to resume specie
payments.

For tie Democratic Adpocats


GENTLEMEN.-The last issue Of the
American Sentinel may be likensd to
"Gun i'll aimed at duck or plover,
Which shoots wide and kicks its owner over
1t contained little besides its former squibs,
and its rehash of the county statement
published in July last, by authority of the
Commissioners, and seen and read by all.
There was no need of printing two thou
sand copies Of that issue of the Seafiael,
and Of giving strict orders to hold the
paper back, so that Democrats here could
not see it, until it had been well circulated
in other parts Of the county. Such tricks
always fail of their object. Open, fair,
and frank opposition, commands the re-
pect Of all. Cunning trickery is sure to
overreach itself and defeat It's own ends.
What did its columns contain beyond
inuendoes, dark hints, personal filings, and
miserable balderdash? That's the sort Of
stuff cooked up in its columns for three or
four weeks past. Petty personalities
that no doubt brought the tinge Of
shame to the cheeks Of all respectable Re-
publicans. No canvass has occurred In
this county for years past, in which there
has been more Of this sort Of warfare, SO
revolving to honorable men, Nothing has
been gained by it; but, certainly, after
proper reflection, the authors Of il must
feel loss even of self respect.

In 1866, when the Radicals ruled Carroll
county, the taxes were so cents on the 500,
without school tax. In 1878, the taxes are
but Al cents on the 500, with IL cents for
school tax. These facts and figures cannot
be denied, and they should close the mouth
Of every Radical who complains Of Democratic
administration.
q In 1866, when the Radicals ruled Carroll
county, the whole amount Of tax levied BY
the County Commissioners was Sos, 235. rs.
In 1873, when the Greeleyiies are ruling the
county, thelevy amountsto S7e, 900. 50, nearly
$11 900 more than under Radical rule. Why
don't the Adrocafe publish these figures or
does It mean to willfuly and deliberately de-
ceive its readers by quoting the rate Of taxa
ton, without informing them that the basis
has been largely increased by an assessment
since 1865 ~ Sentinel.
So it has, but the Republicans had the
benefit Of that increase in 1867, the last
year they held control of the affairs of the
county, when they levied tax Of 40 cents
on the 800, on taxable basis of ST..
175,0s3, for county purposes without a
school tax whereas, the Democrats for
the current year Of 1873 have levied on a
basis Of sl7 ,019 ,261, county tax of only
IS cents on the 500, FIVE cents less than
the Republicans levied in 1867, on basis
greater than that Of the current year. Is
the .Ssatiasi answered? Can't school
boy understand this plain statement of
