ssARWls. OF MARYLAND.

Benjamin G.. Harris circular to the
members Of the House, in Washington,
advocating his claims to the position Of
sergeaRt-at-arms, is receiving contemp-
tuous notice from all the Southern Demo-
cratic papers. In the mentioned circular
he quotes the following prayer, made by
him in Congress, during the war. for
which, he said, he had the glory Of re.
ceiving the censurc of the Radicals Of the
House: God Almighty grant you may
never subiugate the South" In quoting
this wise and fervent language, he says
My greatest regret is that God did OF
grant my prayers" A question that
would naturally strike the ardent and
patriotic Southern mind is-"What in the
devil was all this frey and un
tanned Southern blood doing in
the Federal Congress when the hes
blood of the South was being shed fo
what her people believed to be right 2
Such utterances as those in European
governments under similar circumstance.
would have cost Mr.. Harris, of Mary.
land. his life. All of Harris gushing
patriotism was entirely in the wrong
place, at the right time. The Memphi.
Appeal says: MIR. Harris should no,
have offered that prayer in the Unitet
States House of Representatives ; a better
and more appropriate place for it would
have been among Stonewall Jackson :.
troops, with whom Mr.. Harris could have
backed up his prayer, and so proved his
faith by works. His revival Of it just a,
this time Is as indiscreet as its first utter
ance was, and so far from gaining friends
will make determined opponents for him
among the Southern Democrats, to whom
his circular, we suppose, is specially adj.
dressed. They Will give Mr.. Harris ;
wide berth, just as he deserves"

EDITORIAL NOTES.

1t seems to be the prevailing opinion
among the country exchanges in South
ern Illinois that Dave Linegar did no
get the $4,000 spoken of by the trouble
some letters. Bouton tells justice to in
terview Pope.
The Southern Niiaoisaa: "From the
looks Of the last Murphysboro Era, we
suppose the "phat editor" is settling
down to business. Marriage is having
that beneficial effect upon him we always
thought 1t would"
The Galveston Ne,os 1T is learned
that the total value OF the City of Waco
cargo did not fall short of eight hun.
dred thousand dollars, which, with tho
value of the ship, makes the total loss by
the disaster over "a million of dollars
ten times the loss in and about the city
by the late storm"
New Orleans Buiietin: "Governor KEEL
losg has written to the governors OF the
several Southern States asking of them a
statement of the bonded debt of the tax
alton for State purposes, including inter-
est fund and the date and the approx.
mate amount of last interest payment on
bonded debt. The answers compiled, it
Is expected, will make a good campaign
document"

first accused of whisky ring frauds Gen.
John Mcdonald went to Washington to
fix things. lie tclcgraphed to the incom-
parable Col. Joyce: 81 rode out with the
President to-day. Everything is lovely

than suspected that the fowl referred to

to have line to the Pacific unobstructed
at all seasons Of the year, for the prompt
transportation Of troops and supplies

the Pacific coast. Thrd-as local mil
itary necessity, it having been proven
that rail and telegraph facilities are the
only sure means Of intercepting and pun.
ishing hostile Indians, and of making life
and property secure in Southern Texas,
New Mexico and Arizona. Fourth-as
measure of practical economy, as 1t
would enable the government to trans
port troops and supplies at one
MIN OF the present cost, and to
provide more efficiently and eco
homically for the care and maintcn-
ance OF the Indian tribes under his
charge. Fifth-as commercial neces-
sity to the people along the entire South
Atlantic coast. Gulf of Mexico. and old
