Our neighbor, the Independent, in its is
sue of the 23d of September, in announc-
ing the nomination by our party of our
gallant standard-bearer who has so brave
ly and gloriously borne the flag of the
white man throughout the canvass, thus
sluringly speaks:
'!In this, the Fifth Congressional District,
the Democrats have nominated DR.. E. j. Hen
kle of Anne Arundel DR.. Henkle has repre-
sented Anne Arundel both in the Senate and
House of Delegates of Maryland. lie makes
most excellent "Blackberry wine" and his
recipe therefore is quite noted His election
can hardly be classed among the probabilities. "
We say nothing about the prophetic
wisdom, wherein doubtless the wish was
father to the thought, which foresaw that
"his election can hardly be classed among
the probabilities" but We only wish to
say to our readers that it is true the Doc
tor does make most excellent ''blackberry
wine" and it is vastly superior to lemon
ade. In fact the Doctor has proven that
he is good at btaek-burytng of any kind
Indeed, so good is he at this sort of bust
ness that he has just buried one Hagner
and several others Of that color and short
Iy friends are going to erect over their un-
timely graves a tombstone, and for the
purpose of doing the thing in style con-
tract has been made with the Independent
Stone Company.

The County Result.

Whilst the result in this county was not
better than we expected under all the
circumstances On the other side was
perfect and complete organization. Not
man in their ranks, but who had been re-
gistered and correctly registered, and not
one of them absented himselffrom the polls
unless from an absolute and entire physi-
cal impossibility to get there. On our
side what was there? An entire absence
of organization, local or county; an indif-
ference to proper registration and after
wards a vote-ifconvenient sort OF feel
ing. We do not say this was the general
spirit that controlled all but we do say
that enough white men and Democrats did
so act, who, if their conduct had been as
energetic as it ought to have been, when
their domestic institutions and the supre-
macy of their race were in danger, could
have cast the balance in our favor. These
men might learn lesson from the negro
who thus, in his solicitude to exercise his
right of franchise, has certainly proved
himself more worthy of its possession than
they. It was to have been expected that
from the very nature Of the issues involv.
ed in the canvass, every vote on the Radi-
cal side would have been polled, and with
the supineness on our part it is only mar,
vellous that we were not beaten four hun
dred instead of two.
This absence Of organization on oul
part must not be tolerated any longer.
We must set about the work of prepare
tion for the next canvass at once We
must have county organization, with Its
branches in each district, 80 that its 1ntiu
ence NAV be exerted in every neighbor
hood. Let us do this, and do it at once
and Charles will no longer be the banner
Radical county of the district, but redeem
ed from the control of scalawags and ne
oroes. she will once more be able to holo
up her head proudly in the presence OF he1
sister counties. This we can do. 1t re-
ouires but the effort. GA long pull,
strong pull and pull all together" is al
that IS needed Remember that HE, WHO
WOULD BE FREE, MUST HIMSELF STRIKE
THE BLOW"

Extract from an editorial IN The BaIIlmor
InIcricnn OF "Wednesday:
prOSDerify Ct Baltimore.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial writes as follows:
1t is stated that Baltimore has never had
a more prosperous year than the one Just
closing, through th liberality of Johns
Hopkins and otherof the wealthy men.
The business of the ,ity has not only re-
ceived no injury firm the panic a year
ago, but was actually by it. The
statement conclude as follows: "fler
sugar refineries are busy, as are also her
coffee importers, ant the oyster and fruit
packing business hs grown to immense
proportions, while larpork packers have,
during the current sason, taken South
ern trade of over to millions from the
Western cities"

The Result.

1hS hSShlt.
1t gives us unfeigned pleasure, indeed
words fail us to express it, to lay before
our readers the glorious news of the cleo
lions held on Tuesday last. A great pop
ular uprising Of the people in the North
and the South, in the East and the West,
unparalleled in the political history of this
country, has taken place and driven from
the high places of the land the corruption
lists who have so long abused the conf
dence Of the people. The American peo-
pie are truly patient, but when once arous-
ed their indignation is something fearful
to contemplate. Then their actions are
sublime and cannot fail to impress feel
ing Of awe upon the reflective mind
Looking to the result of Tuesday last, who
does not feel his heart bound anew with
patriotic impulses, and who responding
generously to these quickening throbbings
does not feel that the American citizen OF
to-day is a worthy son of the illustrious
sires of 1776! Verify we can now have a
Centennial Celebration worthy of those
noble men and worthy of our whole coun-
try. Once more reunited in common
Union of equal States it win be dearer to
all patriots because of the trials through
which it has passed.
The victory Of the people is so over
whelming, so extensive, so complete, and
our mind so startled at the magnitude of
its results, that we find it impossible to
speak of it otherwise than as patriot re-
ioicing in the freedom Of his country and
its restoration to the principles of Consti-
tuticnal Republicanism. What does it
mean2 1t means that the war Of Revenge
has ended, and that the reign of peace on
earth to men of good will is inaugurated.
1t means that the birds of prey and cor
morants of corruption, which fiocked to
the banquet of Hate and Greed have been
dispersed forever by an enthusiasm for a
decent and purer political and social life
1t means a return to the constitutional
principles of the founders of our govern
ment. It means reimbursement for oul
long suffering and prosecuted brethren Of
the South. A hearty amnesty for the
white man and corresponding protection
and benefit to the blacks. 1t means 8
protection for local liberties through
States Rights. 1t means guarantee o
Federal faith through resumption O
specie payments. 1t means an equal pro
lection Of capital and labor through a
revenue tariff. In short, it means rs
turn to the eternal principles of the grsthe
