For the Sentinel.
Matrimonial.


The residence of James H Stone, near Sandy
Spring, was the scene of a brilliant wedding,
on the Gath of September. His daughter AN
ME was united in marriage with Mr.. JOSEPH
J. Mcdowell, of Jersey city, N. J.
For some days previous the friends Of the
family were gathering TO the old homestead,
to attend the happy marriage ofan only daugh-
ter and beloved member of society. The sun
rose over a beautiful landscape on that memo
rable occasion, and gave notice of an eventful
day long to be remembered by all present.
All preparations necessary were made, and
all hearts were bounding with that thrill
which is only felt when dear one is about 10
make the greatest change in life. The old
mansion was beautifully and tastefully deco-a-
ted with flowers of richest colors, while
wreaths and garlands were placed around in
graceful elegance. The parlor where the cere-
mony was performed was bower of beauty.
| The most exquisite bouquets were placed
around the room in every conceivable manner,
adding their delightful fragrance to the brill
| liant coors. A about IL ocock the invited
| guests began TO arrive from the neighborhood,
and at IL NJ the ceremony was said-both
parties being members of the Society of F inds.
How impressive it seemed, no one can imagine
except those present. No word was uttered
that did not make its impression on the minds
of those present, as being earnest and heartfelt.
No sign of emotion was visible in either bride
or groom, aud the beautiful ceremony was
completed and they were man and wife,
Only the immediate relations and few of
the most intimate friends of the family were
invited to the marriage, but many more were
present at the reception at % P. NJ. Many
were the congratulations the happy pair re-
ceived, and they were treasured Of the esti-
nation in which they are held. In few
hours the party started on pleasant tour to
Watkins Glen, the Lakes, Niagara, &c, be-
fore going home.
The walters were Mr.. Joseph Towsend, Of
Baltimore, with Miss Ella Hollingsworth, of
Virginia; DR.. j. s. Stone, of Virginia, with
Miss Pattie Thomas, of Sandy Spring Dr.. S.
Scott, of S. S., with Miss Salle Norris, of
Baltimore, Md.
The bride wore white silk dress, with lace
trimmings. The bridesmaids we're white
tarlton aud flowers to match.
When the evening sun was set feeling of
sadness lowered about the parents who had
parted with their daughter, but this was at
tended with the knowledge of her happiness,
which excelleth all. May Heavens choicest
blessings rest and abide ever with them

OPENING OF THE CONGRESSIONAL CAMPAIGN
Hon. B. g. Harris Presidcs. st Mary co :,
has the honor of opening the congressional
| campaign in Maryland. Last Tuesday there
was an old-fashioned democratic meeting at
Leonardtown, over which Hon. Benjamin G.
Harris presided, and which was addressed by
DR.. Henkle, the democratic candidate for Con-
gress IN the fifth district. We gather from
the ST. Mary's Beacon that Mr. Harris, on
taking the chair, said che felt some little sur
prise in finding himself were we was, but be
was proud to know that he spoke to united
party, to party acting once more in harmony
with the doctrines of Jefferson and Madison"
He paid a handsome compliment to DR.. Hen
kle, and introduced him to the meeting. The
latter, after complimenting st. Mary's as the
mother of Counties said that inasmnch as the
convention which nominated him had uttered
no platform he felt called on to define his po-
stion. he was State rights democrat he
opposed protective tariffs and favored tariff
for revenue only; he favored equal taxation
and consequently the taxation of government
bonds; he favored the payment of the public
debt according to the contract originally en-
tered into, and he demanded that the govern
ment should accept its duties upon imports in
its own currency. Upon the question of black
suffrage and cognate subjects, he said he be-
lieved in the superiority of the white man =
When left to itself the black race had never
advanced, but always refrigerated; the white
man had ever progressed. This government
was made by white men, for white men, and
should now be held and controlled by white
men. Notwithstanding this the democratic
party of Maryland had ever proved itself the
best friend the black race had ever had. He
said he would not abridge the rights of the
colored man he had voted as member of
the Maryland Senate to allow him 10 testify
10 the courts; he had favored heavy donations
10 educate the black children of the State -
but these notwithstanding, his doctrine was the
white man shall rule, the white man superior,
the white man supreme.

The Louisiana Embroglio.

A special from New Orleans TO the New
York Tribune says that during Penn's recent
occupancy OF the state-house several docu-
ments were found showing chow the Louisi-
ana case was managed in Washington with a
view of seating Mr.. Pinchback in the Senate
and keeping Gov. Kellogg and party in pow
er"
Mr.. CHANDLER's FEE.
The first letter published is from Edward G.
Billings, lawyer, who was aiding Kellogg
Billings says in a letter 10 Kellogg, dated Will
lard Hotel, Washington, d. c., Dec. Sd, 'T3,
that "Wm. Z. Chandler is working with us,
and he worked with us nobly and more effec-
tive than any one except Williams. He wished
me TO write 10 you about his fee | would
arrange the matter with him at the earliest
moment possible.
MR.. CUsHEG's FEE.
When Senator Carpenters Louisiana bill
was before Congress- under the date Jan. 22d,
1873, Hon. Caleb Gushing wrote to Kellogg,
saying he had drawn on him for ST 900, and
adding Did state in previous letter that
of the draft for 81, 900, which you sent me
sometime since, found it desirable to deliver
ST 900 to Mr.. Chandler"
MR.. BILLINGS FEE.
saying if he TX is going 10 advance him any
thing on his fee he can hand il to their COM
mon friend, Mr. Barrett. In a postscript he
adds, ~ have hopes that you will make the
payment as large rs So, 000." On the same
day, July LIST, 1873, Billings gave Kellogg
receipt for S. 500, ION account of professions
services in the case of Kellogg against War
moth et al.
GEN. BUFFERS FEE.
The next letter 10 Kellogg is from Gen But
Ter and is dated Boston, June l7th 1873. The
letter is addressed "To Ny Dear Governor, :"
matter of the petition in the Supreme Court
about the affairs in Louisiana should be three
thousand dollars. ! advised in the case with
the counsel who argued it. They will recog-
nize my services, and was obliged, in con-
sequence of the retainer, to refuse one on the
other side. Please remit by draft on New
York, which draft will be your receipt"
''sTARTLING REVELATIONS PROMISED.
The special goes on to say: "There are
other letters making startling revelations and
duplicating prominent men In Washington,
including two Senators, TO the extent that
they are shown to have asked for and ack nowl-
edged the receipt of large sums of money from
Gov Kellogg while the Louisiana case was
before the Senate.''
Ex-Gov HERBERT.
"Among the captured letters was one from
Ex-Governor Herbert, of this State, a promi-
nent advocate of third term for President
Grant calling the attention Of Gov. Kellogg
TO his services to the latter, and asking an APP
pointmemt for his son in consideration there.

CLARKspuaa, Sept. %. 1874


Mr.. Editor II have observed in the W ash
ington, d. c., papers of Saturday last, arti-
Giles severely criticising my conduct as Sheriff
of this county, in reference to an attempted
arrest Of I. II. S. Boyd by couple of Me-
tropolitan detectives on the 18th inst. The
statements in said articles | denounce as utter
ly false, and without the least shadow of truth
AS an officer, have never failed to discharge
my duty promptly aud faithfully, as all citizens
of county this will testify. These detectives
were armed with writ issued by one of the
| Courts of Washington city, charging said
Boyd with completely in some way with
forged transfers of U. S. Registered Bonds
did not believe that had right, as an off
Ger of Maryland, to make the arrest by virtue
| of said writ and stated to the detectives that
if they would obtain from Justice of the
Peace Of Mary land-one being near at hand
| a warrant for the arrest of Boyd | would en-
deavor to secure him for them This they
refused TO. do, and did not feel myself au-
thoriZed TO make the arrest under the warrant
held by them. Ny return to Carksburg after
meeting the detectives near Boyds Station,
was in order to prevent my deputy, John R.
Miller, from doing an act that would in any
way complcate me, and not 10 notify BOYD of
the coming of the detectives, as stated in the
articles alluded to. ! am not intimate with
Boyd, and barely have speaking acquain-
lance with him, and had not seen him since
early in the morning OF the same day, when
had served upon him summons issued by
one of our Justices of the Peace. And | most
emphatically deny that either by word or
deed, | notified Boyd of the coming Of the de-
tectves, or that he was liable to an arrest
EDw. II. WATERS, Sheriff.
We publish the above card at the request of
Mr.. Waters. After hearing before the Dis
trlct authorities, and there being no evidence
to sustain the charges, Mr.. I. H. s. Boyd was
discharged.

TEMPERANCE LEcruRE The lecture deliver
ed by Miss Shaw, of New Jersey, aged Ia
years, in the Baptist Church, on Sunday after
noon, we cannot speak very Mandatory of for
several reasons. The address was so rhapsod-
ic that we could not discern which she advo-
Gated, moral suasion or local option, but the
preponderance seemed 10 favor the latter mode
for the suppression of this growing evil-in-
temperance.
We do not hold with women, especially
when SO young, becoming the monitress of
mans political duties, nor do we hold with
them appearing upon the rostrum advocating
any political view 1t may be well for women
to advocate temperance by moral suasion,
overtly, and even admonish the victims of
this curse, upon the platform, to abandon the
use of drink, or to discuss like subjects that
are free from politics.
Appearing in public SO young certainly
gives one self-confdence, and there are but
few who are gifted with the improvisation =
but sure, in time, it does not inspire them with
that pure chaste and innocent decorum which
every member of the fair sex should possess.
Our knowledge is empirical, and we need
not refer to ancient history TO become cogn-
zant of the conduct of those slatterns who
have figured SO extensively, nay, the history
of those of the present generation "who have
blackened its pages, should suffice TO change
those believers of woman's rights
We award TO the address all the praise it
merits, the language itself was fine for one so
young and promising as she--and therefore
we forbear to critcse thoroughly.
