p@r When Mrs. ELLEN KEY BLUNT

H Wnen Mrs. ELLEN hEI DLUNA
was in Paris, France, some years ago,
before crowd of American and French
attendants, in one Of the gay and
fashionable saloons Of Paris, she
rscited the admirable poem written by
the Hon. Mrs. NORTON" Bingen. dear
Bingen on the Rhine. and the ,glo-
rious Anthem Of America The Star
spangled Banner] written BY her IA
ther, with such power and effect hold
ing aloft the Banner Of the Free
Hearts only Home, in her hands.
that glorious inspiration fairly thrilled
the audience. Some American and
French ladies present entwined the
Tri-C Color and: the Stars and Stripes
together furors Of applause fol-
lowed. Mrs. Blant. has never wanted
for friends and admirers at home or
abroad since that evening

A WESTERN VIEW OF MARYLAND
PoLlrlcs.-Hon. Montgomery Blair
is likely to be elected to Congress from
his district in Maryland. If he should
happen to find himself in the House
of the Forty fourth Congress with an
opposition majority at his back, the
veteran agitator could be implicitly
depended on to make the fur fly in
more directions than one. The wrath
which the party in power has been
treasurins up against the day of
wrath could not fall into hands that
would make it lovelier or of a higher
temperature than Montgomery Blair
would. An opposition House with
him for its leader In these troublous
times might bring back the memories
of Thad. Stevens in another shape;
and very uncomfortable one for
some people.-&. Louis Republican.

The Colalet1

Can the Comets CONF ~ contact
with the planets2 any body crossing
the orbit of another may ssuse a col
lision, though the chances, y to speak,
be very few. A CometIWas once
known to pass between one Of the lar
ger planets, and some d itssatelites,
and whilst passing seemed robe de-
layed in its course. It is believed BY
some, that the asteroids revolving be-
tween the orbits Of Mars and Jupiter,
once composed single body, but
that it was broken to pieces ny =
Comet. 1s
But for example if we could sup.
pose a Comet RAINING wild, unguided
BY the hand Of Pro7idenpa u
the amount 81 prob =; 81; !, GthSt II
would pass Us near thS Earth, g The
distance from US to ouf moon, ii pass
ing within OF out the orbit Of the
Earth--None, if the Sun become hun
dred millions Of miles from the Earth,
then the surface of the sphere Of this
radius will be about one hundred
and twenty thousand billions Of
square miles. And this divided by
the number Of square miles. in a circle,
the diameter being twice the distance
from rs to the moon, would give a
result of more than half. What
chance then, that wandering Comet,
in once passing, might approach as
near the Earth as the Moon now is?
Probably as one to halfaa million.
No wonder then, that the: Inhabitants
of earth have never known Comet
to come very near them.
Rev Mr.. Davis, President Of Prince
ton College, about 100 years ago.
gives the following specufations re-
lating to Comet. In = sermon on
the signs of the times he says-"Be-
sides these strange phenomena, which
have already appeared, if we regard
the calculations Of the great philoso-
pher, Doctor HALEY, and some others,
we are to expect a visit from that
portentous stranger, Comet, in and
about two years hence; q huge globe,
heated according to Sir Isaac New
tons calculation, two thousand times
hotter than red-hot iron. And DR..
HALEY observes, that the last time it
revolved, it moved in tfAesrr line
which the Earth perforf annual
course around the Sun; I 4 klen the
Earth was on the othefS OF her
orbit; whereas, in tais revolution, y
will move not only in the same line,
bu. in the very same parts OF that
line in which the Earth moves Aud
will not this, upon ths Pfincaplss Of
philosophy, occasion a collision OF
these two bodies, or such near APP
proach as would prove fatal to our
Earth? For such an enormous body
of solid fire would burn it to a coal,
and cause a universal conhagration;
and we have no reason, that know of,
to hope the contrary but from revela-
ton, IN which We find many prophe'
cies not yet fulfilled. But upon the
principles of inflel philosophy, this
dreadful conseo uence seems unavolda-
lie"

D~ There was no Democratic ticke

"a mere was no Denl0crGtlc ticket
in this county, and Of course no De-
mocrat,c party in 1895, 1900, 1904,
1908, 1912, 1916, 1920, 1924 and
1928, and the intervening years.
The contest in these times-as the
old Records and the Election Returns
show-was between the Federal and
Republican parties. I'VE are all Re-
publicans, we are all Federalists" said
Mr.. Jefferson, in his inaugural nd
dress, March t. 1901. Now was
Jefferson a Federalist, a democrat, a
Republican or a Morphradite, or
what was he? AS he professed to be
a Republican, imbued with Republi-
can principles, Does the present
Republ'can party of Frederick coun.
ty cleave to his principles?

sg- The oppressive heaS should
remind us that if we would avoid
as far as in us lies, sickness, we must
see to it that there is no breeder Of
sickness allowed about our houses
The newspapers grow tired OF call
ing upon the people to look to the
condition of their cellars and alleys
The appeals are in vain SO long as a.
each one who reads them closes his
paper with the satisfaction that they
do not refer to him, and the hope that
his neighbor will take them to heart
and clean up. 1t is not alone in the
sIums of a great city that piles OF
filth lie fostering in the heat. The
alleys and cellars Of some Of the best
dwellings hold them.

New York, July 8.-Ths Golden
Age has the following. editoriaIly'
relative to the Beecher Tilton affair:
plymouth Church has adopted a
policy of silence. It has seen a cum
ming tissue Of misrepresentation. and
insin u alton, woven for the injury OF
one man and protection ofanother,
swept away at single blow, leaving
its artifice exposed to Tie public eye,
and yet, in the face Of the universal
demand for explanation it holds its
peace. It sees the character Of one
whose good name it is bound to defend
from every aspersion brought under
grave and terrible suspicion, and
while millions in agony Of sympathy
for him entreat it to open its lips and
speak one assuring word, it persist.
emily holds its tongue. The fact
speaks in trumpet tones.

The Bay City Chronicle says Of one
Of its illustrtons citizens: h.
Mr. Wopples was born to command
-there is no doubt Of it. He can no
more help giving orders whenever he
sees another man at work than a a.womai
pass mirror without trying to catcha
glimpse OF her back hair. Mr. Wop.
pies was coming along The street ahe
other day, where some men we're hoist.
ing some melted tar to The top of 4 tMit-
ding for the roofers. One man, VAS,
pulling at the hoisting rope and another.
was holding the bucket away from the
wall by means Of a cord, The bucket
had just passed the wile corpiceI when
Wopples came upon the scene He
comprehended tho Situation at q aglance,
and saw that the man who was holding
the bucket out from the building by the
cord must slacken it, 80 as 10 let the
bucket swing over on the roof. .sLet
60 that roper shouted Mr.. Wopplss.--
The man pulling on the hoisting rope
recognized the voice Of authority, and.
with a dim impression that something
had burst, he dropped his rope aud ran
to the middle of the street. The buck,
ct came down SO as to just bit the edgo
Of the cornice, which upset it, and the
smoking, sticky contents descended in
a black food upon Mr. Wopplea. Du-
ring the next two weeks Mrs. Wopples
devoted her leisure hours to ecraping

Let Your Wife Know Your Situa.
tlOns

An exchange says: 1t is custom too
common with the men of the world to
keep their families in utter ignorance of
the situation of their business. The
eife knows nothing--has not even an
idea-of the amount of her husband g
fortune, whether it is to be counted by
hundreds or thousands. What can q
woman kept in such ignorance learn p
She spends, as matter of course, all
he gives her to spend, with the full con-
fidence that when that is gone, and she
asks forit, he will give her more. If
an unmarried woman works she may 90
with a bold, unblushing face, and de-
mand her wages; but wife can demand
nothing; her claim is only for bare ne
cessity, and generous men, on that &C,
count, are often too indulgent, too fear
ful of letting wife know the exact state
Of her husbands finances, understand
his plans, and aid him, if possible, with
her counses, and then these terrible ca
tastrophes would notiso often happen.
Many wife who is plunging her hus-
band deeper and deeper into debt from
ignorance would, if she knew his EN-.
barrassments, be the first to retrench,
and with true womanly sympathy and
generosity, help him to reinstate his
failing fortunes

Hts Healthy 10 Marry.

The statistics Of all countries show
that marriage is promotive of longev
ity. Married people of both sexes live
longer, because they are ordinarily more
happy and prudently behaved than even
bachelors and spinsters Moral and
sasitary science combine in demanding
that wedlock shall be encouraged. 1t
happens, however, that in all old set
tied communities there is q large pre-
ponderance of women. The female sex
is less able than the male, to fight un-
aided the battle of life, and its miser-
les, in the event of failure are greater.
The excess of unmarried women should
be diminished, if philanthrophy and
sound political economy are capable of
graphing with the evil There are two
ways of solving the difficulty. One is
an equalization Of the sexes by means
Of the aided emigration of surplus wo-
men to new settlements. Governor
Slade's down east schoolmis.resses mar.
ried SO rapidly after going West that
their successors we're put under $4,000
bonds to remain single for three years
In many cases this proved no obstacle
to impetuous wooers, who paid the per
cuniary forfeit that they might be uni
ted to the objects of their Affection
The same thing is going on everv day
in New Zeafand.---H earth and Home.
