Tue Eastern SHORE. The Cambridge
Chroaicle thus eloquently speaks of its
peculiar section, known as the eastern
Shore" The Eastern Shore of MARYLAND
is emphatically Gland Of milk aud
honey" The sun sends his smiles upon
no more hospitable set of beings than those
who here reside. Our homes and hearts
are ever open to the stranger and the
petition of the needy rarely ever fails to
strike a responsive chord. From the
epidemic feyers which rage with such
fearful fatality farther South we are for.
tunately exempt. Men who have travelled
from "Greenlands icy mountains to In.

amidst the snow-capped hills Of Tibet,
who have felt the singing winds Of Central
Asia, sweltered under Africa burning
suns, and fingered beneath the sunny skies
of Italy, come back to the Eastern Shore
Of my Maryland and declare from the
depths of their hearts that Gods sun rises
and sets upon no fairer cline.

that Is novel At Washington. II was long
AGO known that Germany desired to ac-

consequently the announcement Of this

ago Germany automatically put the ques-
ton TO Washington as to whether or not
there would be any objection on our part
toher acquiring possession ofaH island inthe
Antilles, but We do not know what answer,
il any, vas ever returned. The tener Of
the Washington dispatches Published To-
day indicates that our Government seal
GUS Of any such concession, and that Mr..
Davis at Berlin and Mr. Cushing at Mad

DINGHY both the Spanish and German Gov
