Ef5 The Annapolis correspondent of the
Baltimore american, furnished that paper
the following:
ENCOURAGING DISHONEST OFFICIALS-MR.
GRooME's IMMUNITY BILL.
Mr.. Groome's bill, for the defence of Off
GERS of registration, judges Of elections,
and others, who are or may be indicted in
the United States courts for acts alleged to
be in violation of the Enforcement act,
requests the Governor to instruct the At
tOrney General to appear in the defence OF
said officers, and he is also authorized to
defray out of the contingent fund the
necessary expenses of defendants in pro-
curing the attendance of witnesses. The
Governor shall also, in his discretion, en-
plOy counsel to assist the Attorney Gen.
eral, and to pay out of the contingent fund
for these purposes any sum necessary, not
exceeding two thousand dollars. All the
amendments to the bill were voted down,
and it was ordered to be engrossed for its
third reading by vote which is tanta-
mount to its passage through the House.
In his speech upon the bill Mr.. Groome
made a very plausible defence of it, at the
same time taking the opportunity to assert
State rights against the legislation of Con-
gress, and going back to the days of slav-
cry to make a political Grafton, in which,
probably, he had in mind that he was a
candidate for the Governorship. The bill
is defended upon the ground that when a
citizen of the State, acting in obedience to
the law of his State, makes himself liable
to indictment under the United States law,
lie should be defended by the State-prac-
tically, however, the Offenders against the
T,,k k,I <lor
against the State law. Any exceptional
cases which might occur, if such thing is
possible, could be relieved by special legis-
lation. The argument against the bill is
well stated by Mr.. Bruce, as follows
"Unless the accused parties acted cor
ruptly they cannot be criminally convicted.
If they are convicted, then that is evidence
of corruption, and places them beyond the
limit of those to be protected by the State.
If the State is to defend all such cases,
whether the parties act honestly or dishon-
estly, from pure or corrupt motives, the
registers of voters become the electing
power. They may strike from the list the
names of all persons of opposite politics,
prevent them from voting and then be pro-
tected by the State. The taxpayers of
the State have to shoulder the burden.
The law-breakers are protected"
We had hoped that the next Governor of
Maryland would have confidence enough
in his ability to avow himself progress
sionist, and not cater to dead issues, and
be found championing bill which will
open wider the doors of fraud on the bal
lot box, than they are at present held by
the registry law. If you want to protect
the registrars, repeal the present law, and
give voters chance to establish their rights
before the judges Of election. Then all
parties would be placed on equal grounds.

A Prolific Turkey.-Mr. E. Owens, of
Perryville, has d turkey hen whose fecundi-
ty is something re markable. The hen was
one year old last summer. but commenced
laying eggs on the 2lth of March last, and
by the first of May had laid 26 eggs. At
that period she ceased laying and showed
disposition to set for about week, when
she gave up that stupid business and COM
menced laying again. She presented her
owner with an egg every alternate day for
ten days, "slacking" up again, laying at
intervals for ten or fifteen days, when a
season of regular laying lasting six or
eight days was commenced, after which no
more eggs were produced till after the first
of September. From the date of her COM
mencemeut, March 2Stb, to the first of
December, eight months, the turkey hen
had laid, in all, one hundred and sirty eggs
when she commenced to shed her feathers,
and is now apparently ready to commence
again her favOrite occupation.
