ANNAPOLIS.

The political contest over the choosing
of the Board of Police Commissioners was
settled by the Democratic caucus on Monday
night. The american says the matter has
kept in agitation all the Democratic rings
and cliques of our city. The struggle
brought to the State Capital strong as
semblage of the ring masters, wire pullers
and ward politicians of Baltimore, and oc-
casloned proportionate amount of in
trigue and management, not unmixed with
rowdyism. The caucus determined to elect
by ballot, and that the nominee first elected,
Or having the highest number of votes
should be chosen for the six year term; the
next for the four year term, and the third
for the two year term. Two ballots were
had without result. On the third Mr. w.
II. B. Fusselbaugh, President of the pres
ent Board, was chosen. On the fourth
ballot Major Harry Gilmore, of Confeder-
ate raiding fame, was successful, and on
the fifth ballot the Board was completed
by the selection of Mr.. John Milroy, OF
whom we know nothing but that he is
partner Of Mr.. John w. Davis, late State
Treasurer. Harry Gilmore, Police Com
missioner. We have model Legislature
truly.
A bill has passed the House, prepared by
MIR. Groome, authorizing the County Com
missioners to pay a debt on the Elkton
Academy. The debt we believe is thous-
and dollars or upwards.
Mr.. Lloyd, in the Senate, has asked
leave to introduce bill for the appoint
ment of commissioners of fisher ies. A
bill similar in nature was passed by the
Legislature Of 1870 mainly through the
instrumentality of Mr.. Fred Latrobe, then
Speaker of the House, but it never went
into effect, as Governor Bowie never APP
pointed the commissioners. This operated
greatly to the disadvantage of the State.
The yield of the fisheries were largely de-
creased by reckless fishing and a large
food supply lost. The United States Com
missioner OF Fisheries was meanwhile ap-
pointed, and large appropriation made by
Congress in order to enable him to dis
tribute ova to the various States to hatch
in their waters. Under the law, however.
no State could avail itself Of this distribu-
ton without first having appointed COM
missioners of fisheries to take charge of
the matter, and Maryland, therefore, re-
ceived no benefit under the act, although
its waters offered one of the most favorable
places of operation upon the Atlantic
coast. When Prof. Baird, the United
States Commissioner, desired to introduce
the California salmon into tie waters of
the Atlantic coast, Maryland would have
been supplied from the first quantity of oya
had commission been established. Gov.
Bowie had no time to attend to fish His
race horses and Pemlico race course absorb
| ed all his spare moments.
Both Houses of the Maryland Legislature
adjourned on Thursday, till Monday. The
Senate had the business before them well
up.

sB The outgivings from Annapolis are
that the strong demonstrations in favor of
restricting the boundless liberty of X ing
Alcohol, manifested by the people OF this
county, as well as by the whole Sta te, are
pronounced by the members not conclu-
sive evidence that the majority of their
constituents desire any change in the liquor
license laws, and that they would not feel
justified in advising the passage of such a
law as has been drawn up, endorsed and
recommended by the late public meeting
held in this town, and published in Tile
Wing. This is, perhaps, the best plea or
the plea which presents the best face to
the public, which can be made use of by
our Cecil members. But there is a deeper
reason than this for their reluctance to
touch so strong an ally as the grog shop.
They well know that they owe their cleo
ton to the influence and work of the grog
shops in the last campaign, and they hope
to have the aid Of so true friend in the
future. They well know that had there
been no more grog shops in the county
than arc likely to be left open with such a
law in force as the bill framed and forward
ed from this county to Annapolis, that not
man of them all would be sitting in the
legislature to-day.
The saloon keepers are well aware OF
this fact. and what the Democratic candi-
dates of the last election owe to them, and
consequently they talk boldly and defiant
ly; and are preserving a record of the
names Of every man who has taken any
part in the late movement, and declare
eternal political condemnation to them in
the future. The saloon men hold the bal,
ance of power and adjust it nicely, never
failing to favor the candidates who will
most favor them.

SPECIAL ELECTION.

1t will be seen by reference to the Sheriff S
notice that special election has been call
ed to take place on Wednesday, 18th inst,
to fill the vacancy in the legislature caus-
ed by the resignation of Mr.. Greome.
The new member will have but little more
than month to serve. The ceremony of
course must be complied with of filling
the vacancy, and to justify his expense of
an election he will have to be mighty
good " one. There being no time to hold
primary meetings and county convention,
the Central Committee has been called to
meet on Tuesday next, at Eikton, and
name Republican candidate for the Office.

BALLoTING FOR GovERNoR.-At one
O'Clock on Wednesday, both Houses pro-
ceeded to ballot separately for the election
OF Governor to serve out the unexpired
term of Governor Whyte, after the 4th of
March next. 1t was discovered, however.
that the Constitution required that tie
election should be in joint convention and
by viva voce vote. To meet this require
ment the two Houses assembled in the hall
OF the House and proceeded to viva voce
vote. The result announced was seventy
i've votes for Hon. James B. Groome, and
eighteen votes for Hon. John f. Smith.
Previous to the election, Mr.. Groome re-
signed his seat as member of the House
of Delegates from Cecil county.

Us In looking over the daily proceed
ings of the Legislature, the reader is forci-
bly, struck with the large number of pri-
vate and local bills in their proportion to
general news, the latter being very few,
which are not of any real Importance to the
near OF remote that is in any way connect
ed with the Confederacy" receives the
attention of the members with commenda-
BILE alacrity and promptness. Voting q
$1,000 to help build a monument to the
"Confederate dead" at Point Lookout,
and an act commanding the Attorney Gen
eral to defend Registers who erase the
names of Republican voters from the lists,
and the Governor to pay out of the State
treasury, all expenses incurred in prosecut-
ing such suits, are bills which command
immediate attention, with scarcely dis
senting voice. A system to give the State
good roads and save the open sluices
throgh which the peoples money is wasted
by the million annually, restocking the
proper protection to fish already in the
streams, curbipg the deluge of rum selling
which is engulfng every village in the
State, and other wholesome laws, which
"rings' have no particular interest in,
scarcely more than command friendly
word from the Legislature. No prompt
and decided action is seen in pushing the
latter class OF bills like the former. The
these little private bills piled on the table,
taking precedence of everything of gen.
eral interest, save and except always, it be
something to indicate the regard and es-
TEEN of the members for whatever has AIN
odor of the Confederacy" about it,
Making the raider on farm houses and
railroad cars, where the plumber of a dairy
or picking the pockets of defenseless
women and men were sure things, accom-
plished without danger, police commits
sioner, voting money cut of the treasury
to build Confederate monuments. -
Offering premiums taken from the finances
Of the State to registers to violate their
oath, and rob Republican voters of their
rights of the elective franchise, is most
congenial work for our Legislature.
Simple justice demands the prompt re-
peal of the registry law, but political ras-
cality requires greater security by the
amendment of the law for the escape of
corrupt registers, and the latter commends
itself to that Democratic body of noble
statesmen every one of whom we wager
can tell a "hawk from hand saw"
