Our Nominee.

We place at the head of our columns to-
day as the nominee of our party, the name
of that true Democrat and heightened gen
tleman, DR.. ELI j. HENKLE. In selecting
him the Convention has chosen one in
every way worthy of the support Of the
most fastidious Democrat He is man
of broad and liberal, but most decided
views upon the political questions Of the
day. He has the capacity not only clearly
and forcibly to express these views, but t.
maintain them on the hastings by an ora
tory equal, if not superior, to that of any
man who is likely to attempt to controvert
them. DR.. Henkle is man in the prime
of life, native of Baltimore, but resident
ofAnne Arundel county, where he has pass
ed the greater part of his life engaged in
agricultural pursuits in connection with
the practice of his profession. Being q
man of singularly gentle manners, but OF
most pronounced political sentiments, it
Is not strange that he should have been
cslled by the people of his county from that
retirement which was congenial to his
tastes to enter into public life. He was
thus a member of the Constitutional Con
vention of 1864 and took high rank among
the very able Democrats, who constituted
the minority of that body. So highly
were his services appreciated by his people
that since then he has been successfully
elected by them to both the Senate and
House of Delegates. In all these places o.
public trust he has always been found able
dilligent and faithful. He is now before
the people seeking, as the representative OF
our party, scat in the councils of the ma
ton. And we are sure from what we know
of him, personally and politically, he will
be found in every way worthy of the sup
port of the people. Our nominee proposes
to make an active and energetic canvass
of the whole district, and all will have an
opportunity to see and hear him, and we
are sure they will be satisfied that the
Convention made most happy choice.

cipally wasted his words on the Times. y

We stop the press to state that the poll
teal canvass in this Congressional District
commenced at Leonardtown on Tuesday
last. We learn from the Beacon that DR..
Henklc being present an impTomptu gather
ing took placeat the Court House in the
evening. Hon. B. G.. Harris presided az
the meeting. after paying handsome
compliment to the Democratic candidate
which was received with loud applause
Mr.. Harris concluded by introducing DE-
IIenkle to tie meeting, whose appearance
upon the standN',s the signal for a genuine
Democratic outburst'
The meeting was addressed by DR.. Hen
kle, Col. Billingslcy, Mr. Harris and Dr
Bronze. Thus the ball has opened AMI We
may expect stirring times from now until
the Idcs of November.

Carrying Revolvers.-We have had oc-
casion heretofore to denounce the practice Of
carrying revolvers, 80 common among young
men and boys, and we feel like adding a few
words more upon the subject in consequence
of an incident which transpired at the school
picnic at the "Blue Banks" on Monday af-
afternoon. Some seventy shcolars, boys and
girls, under direction of their teachers, pro-
ceeded to the banks, and passed pleasant
afternoon, or what would have been 50 but for
the incident, The report of a revolver was
heard, and then other revolvers were fired,
and the attention of the principal being at
tracted thereto, search was instituted, in
quiries were made, and two were found.
The practice of carrying revolvers is at best
reprehensible, and we doubt if any man feels
himself more a man in consequence OF so do
ing. II leads to kind Of bravado life, that
is no honor to society, and can scarce find
justification in any circumstance short OF actu-
al war. The indulgence in the practice by
older persons has had its effects by promoting
imitation among the younger, until very
many of our youth carry weapons and do not
fail to flourish them openly as proof eff their
manhood. Parents, fathers should look more
closely after their boys, and instead of per-
mittinZ should interdict the use of such
weapons. They should go further and set an
example to them by never carrying such
weapons themselves, and by teaching them
that true manhood has no need Of such arti-
fetal means to demonstrate its claims. Teach
them self-reliance, truth, honor, uprightness,
and there will be little occasion for revolvers.
Society should set its face against the prac-
tice. and by placing it under ban prevent the
evils it occasionally mourns over in spasmodic
grief, resulting from the folly which it tacitly
encourages. We appeal to the boys, them
selves, to give up the practice. Admitting
that you may have all the discretion in their
use that persons of maturer years and exper-
ience have gained, an accident might MAIN a
comrade, or still the hearts pulsations of a
little playmate-might shadow your young
life with q cloud of sorrow which would 60
with you always. Lay aside such weapons,
and resolve you will be men without such
useless appliances. In your play you do not
need them. In your quarrels it is worse than
madness to use them. Lay them away, boys,
and in your after life you will never regret
having followed our advice.

Farmers.-We would particularly direct
your attention to Coates Lock-Lever Hay

required while raking, the usual appliances

been thoroughly tested by practical farmers
and has in every case given the utmost salts

fair where it has been introduced-is con-
structed with the utmost regard to economy
and is warranted every time. THOMPSON &

Fremont, are agents for it and will gladly
give every further particular. If you want a
thoroughly competent machine and desire to
save money, by all means acquaint yourself

proval of practical men. Call and see it.

On the following afternoon, 3 man dressed In
a linen shirt, but minus coat, vest, pants, hat,
and without even boots or shirt collar, was
arrested by the police, wandering about the
streets, and when he had recovered from the
drugs with which ne had been dosed, he told
the story Of his "taking in" BE had evident
ly @seen the elephant"
When C. A. Taylor got pick sharpened IN
Bryan and was taken to Unity, he evidently
knew what be was about. And when the
next morning Jerry Kline and DIR. Denman
entered their stores and beheld the condition
of their safes, they knew what he had been
about. And 50 it came TO pass that the dis
ooverv was made that Dr. Runyan's barn had
been entered and his horse and sulky appro-
priated. These latter were found at Montpe-
lier, and Taylor tracked to Bryan, thence to
HicksviHe and thence to Antwerp, where he
was caught, and part of the money recovered.
He was taken to Bryan, where the Grand
Jury being in session, found three indictments
against him, and on Thursday last he was on
trial with a prospect of a speedy admission to
the penitentiary. LATER-Taylor was con-
vieted on all charges and was sentenced by
Judge Latty to eleven years in the penitenia-
~. It is rarely ever rascal meets his deserts
SO speedily. In eight days after the offences
were committed he was put to labor for the
State.

Fire at Defiance.-On Friday night last,
fire broke out in the livery stable of J. H.
Kiser. The fire was first discovered in the
hay loft, and spread rapidly thence to frame
building near by, occupied as confectionery
by Mr.. Habenthall, thence the store building
of J. B. Weisenberger, and the clothing store
of ]. w. Hengstler, then to cigar store, a
meat market, harness shop, a saloon-all
frame. Then brick building occupied as a
marble shop was destroyed, and the fire had
spread eastward to the canal. On the west of
the livery stable three story brick building
and some frame buildings were destroyed, and
the bridge across the Maumee was for while
in great danger. The fire broke out about
o'clock sn the evening, and the fire depart
ment were kept busy the entire night. Few
of the buildings were of much value, and as
consequence the loss is not as great as would
seem-though heavy enough. 1t will reach
$40, 900 to $4,000, with an insurance of per-
haps $4,000.
