Reform in Marylanl,
THE OUTLOOK ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS DEFEAT
OF THE RING, WITH us ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
IN BALTIMORE.

THE OUTLOOK NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. DEFEAT
OF THE RING, WITH us cANDIDArEs-MEETINas
IN BALTIMORE.
BALTIMORE, Sept. 20.
The american, this morning, says All the ill.,
dications for the success Of the Reform cauae are
growing better, both in the city aud State. We
have news TO-DAY OF the nomination of Reform
ticket III dorchester county, and the proDaplJy
is that the opposition to the Ring will take the
same shape in Carroll county. Ibe Allegheny
Democrats have followed the lead of their WASH
ingtoh county friends iii demanding that ire
form within the party" which always is to be and
never is. The action of these two Coun-
" Conventions, coupled with the
Punishment OF Mr.. Carroll from the
stump in Washington county for fear that lis
indiscreet speeches would imper the chances of
the local tcket,are significant signs of the weak
ness OF the Ring campaign.
For the bright prospects of the Reform move
ment we have only to look at tho determination
of the Merchants meeting last night, the telling
speeches OF Messrs. Harris, Wartield and Porter,
and the superb letter written by Mr.. Wallis.
The Reform ticket is, with some slight excep-
tons, endorsed, and we have right 10 believe
that the great power that belongs to this move
ment OF the merchants will be thrown in its ia
vor, Tho friends of reform have good reason
to take courage, for all the signs of the times
point to defeat Of the Ring corruptioaists and
aud tax eaters.

Return or chancellor Ssaecs.

Hon. Daniel NJ, Bates, ex-Chancellor of this
State, who has been in Europe for about two
years for his health, passing the summers at the
German spas, and the winters at Mentone in the
South OF France, arrived in this city on Thurs
day. He is accompanied by his son, Daniel NJ.
Bates, Jr., and hia two daughters, who have
been with him abroad. They arrived at New
York on the steamship Algeria, having had ratl-
or rough, but quick passage. The Chancellor
had been during the summer at the celebrated
German baths ut Homburg, and had then spent
about month in London, before sailing for
home. He returns with his health much i'm
proved, very gratifying fact to his many
friends

senator Sherman's View ov Kesump
ton.

THE MEANS IN THE sECRETARY's HANDS AMPLE-IF
USED, dREENBAcKs SURE 10 REACH THE spEcIE
sTANDARD--THE PROCESS QUIET As THE DAILY
FLUCTUATIONS IN GOLD.
The following letter from Hon. John Sherman
who is, and for several years has been chairman
of the Senate Finance Committee, is in reply to
an inquiry whether any Of his speeches or writ
ings gave in detail the process and probable Of
fects Of return to specie OH January /, 1879
according to the existing laws provisions
SENATOR sHERMASs LETTER.
Mansfield, o., Sept. q, 1876.
Your letter OF the 10th was forwarded to mo
here. / have read the extracts enclosed, and
see what you want, but there is no published
speech that will give it in detail. Perhaps if you
will read the short debate in tho Senate on the
passage of the BILL just before Christmas, You
will find an answer to your question.
Inc bill itself gives to the Secretary Of the
treasury almost unrestricted power to prepare
for resumption, by the sale OF bonds and accu-
mutation OF coin. The general reduction OF the
greenback circulation, and the accumulation Of
gold, backed by the power to nse all surplus rev.
enue and to sell oil the bonds necessary to pre-
pare for and maintain resumption--al these to-
gethor are ample to secure the end desired And
when it was seen that he had the power and the
disposition to use it, specie standard would be
reached by as quiet process as now we see gold
advancing or falling daily in value.
As go away in a few minutes cannot write
more fully. My feeling has always been that we
must reach specie payment before We can have
steady prosperity-thst it is not pleasant pro-
cess but that the difficulty in tho way is exag-
gerated-and that the law of last winter, though
not the best way, yet is the best way aitaiaabie
Congress would not, and will not pass more d.
rect act OF resumption. Very truly yours,
john SHERMAN.

The Maryland Reform movement looks strong
and we do not see why so excellent ticket as
that now agreed upon cannot be triumphsntly
elected. Apart from the fact that he is the
nominee of Ring organization, $50 declared
by many Of the Democratic papers Of Maryland, }
Mr.. Csrrcllis not strong candidate. His grand
fathers reputation has not come down to him.
Tho Republicans OF Maryland, alone, are not in
extraordinarily, and they should be able to
poll their whole vote for Harris, Wallis and vii.

number of Democrats supporting the Reform
ticket ~ the candidacy of the gentleman named
would indicate, their defeat OF the Ring would
be certain.

The Bonanza Gambler.

The talk about the suspension of
active operations in the Bonanza
mines three or four months. in or
der to repair the damage done by
the fire, it is barely possible, is a
stock -jobbing trick Of Messrs.
Mackey, Fair, Flood and O'Brien,
the San Francisco millionaires,
who own the great majority of the
shares. Up to the time of the fire
the dividend to stockholders, after
all the "squeezes' had been taken
out, amounted to 1,080,000 per
month. The total losses of the
mine by the fire were the destruc-
ton of its hosting and outer
works, which, it Is now stated,
could be replaced in couple OF
weeks for less than 100000. The
day after the disaster the Bonan-
"a shares shrunk 1886, 1000, 900, and
shareholders in San Francisco are
beginning to ask whether the sus-
pension of dividends talked about
by Mr.. Flood indicates that they
are to be squeezed as dry as was
the bank of California by the Flood
& O'Brien ring.

The Capital Question.

The Fairmont Mdec of last week
has the following editorial remarks
on the above question
1.-THE capital question that has
so long ciogged the wheels of Leg
islation of our State, will come up
again this winter, and doubtless
will occupy much time of the Leg
isture.
The location of our State CAPT.
tai is a matter of vital importance
to us all, but it is not a matter Of
so great magnitude as to monopo-
lie our legislators during the
whole of the session TO the eXclu-
sion Of other things of equal i'm
portance. 1t was evident that
charleston was not the place for
it, and it is equally apparent that
it should not be permanently loca-
ted at Wheeling, and while it is
there temporarily, the question: of
locating it permanently will con-
tinue to perpleX, worry and inn
pede our Legislation. Why leave
the matter open, and squander
the peoples money III SquaObiiinp
over a matter that can and ought
to be settled in short time? The
people are tired of such things,
and will hold their rep, esentatives
responsible. A majority OF our
citizens outside of Wheeling are
awake to the fact that it is as i'm
practicable place for it as Charles
ton.
The State is out of debt, her
Golfers are filled, and she is able
to build her own capitol, and the
Legislature had far better settle
upon some accessible point, APP
propriate money, build our CAPT
toll and settle the matter finally.
The interest of the taxpayer de-
mands that it be done speedily.

How u Dead Hog Killed q
Man.

a negro man in the adjoining
county of Baldwin killed large
hog in the woods. He opened the
animal and removed the entrails
and devised a method of carrying
the pork which was altogether
sue generis. This manner of trans
nortation was effected by Tying the
hind legs together, passing his
head between them, and the heavy
carcass being in front, easing the
weight on his neck by lifting on
the fore legs with his hands. 1t is
presumed that he got along re-
markably well until a rail fence
got in his way, and, in order to
climb this, he needed his hends, -
Accordingly, he relieved them by
lifting the hog over the top rail
and letting it drop on the other
side. 1t is presumed that he pro-
posed to follow the hog, but he
didn't. A few days ago a congre-
CATION buzzards attracted attention
to locally where negro man was
found hanging on one side of a rail
fence and hog on the other, the
weight of the animal evidently
having pressed his neck down up
on the rail until he was choked to

Advice to Girls.

Somebody give the following
advice TO girls. 1t is worth vol
umes of fiction and sentimental
ism : Men who are worth having
want women for wives. A bundle
Of gew-gaws bounded with a
string of flaps and quavers, sprin-
killed. with cologne and set in car
mine saucer-this is no help for
man who expects to raise fami-
ly of boys on bread and meat. The
piano and lace fabrics are good in
the places, and so are the frills and
tinsels ; but you cannot make a
dinner out of the former,nOr bed
blanket of the latter and awful
as such an idea may seem to you,
both the dinner and bed-blankets
are necessary to domestic happi-
ness. Life has its realities as well
as fancies, but you make it all de-
coration, remembering the tassels
and curtains, but forgetting the
bedstead. Suppose a man of good
sense and good prospects to be
looking for wife, what chance
would you have to be chosen :?
You may catch him, or you may
trip him, but how much better to
make it an object to catch you.
Render yourself worth catching,
and you will not need shrewd
mother to help you find a market

Influenza.

This disorder SO common now at
certain season of the year, is, not
contagious, at least prevalent, at
the same time throughout the
whole district, and al others Who'll
ly removed. 1t is most frequent
during the changeable weather of
spring or autumn, and attacks per-
sons of all ages. 1t is a disorder
of a mixed character, or, as it has
tarrhal fever Like a fever, it
comes on with shivering, and is
attended with small quick pulse,
white tongue and hot skin; and,
like a cold, it is attended mostly
with a severe headache, discharge
from the nostrils, sneeZing, and
general soreness and deb ility. 1t
usually runs its course in four or
five days, and then gradually dis
appears, though relapse is apt to
occur; and to aged persons, and
those who have weak lungs, a pre-
disposition to Inflammation of the
air passages or pleura, it has aften
proved more obstinate or even ia
tai. The remedies are in general
simple: Confinement to the house,
fost warm bath, barley water, and
keeping the bowels gently reliev-
ed, are usually sufficient. If the
cough is troublesome, the syrup of
squills or the ipecacuanha reme-
dies are advisable.

A Foolish Girls Death.

We learn from one of our best
citizens, who returned from Macon
last night, that a Miss Butler, a
daughter Of the Waterman at Flint
river bridge, on the southwestern
railroad, was run over and killed
by car yesterday evening late. -
She had been in the habit % put
ting her foot on the track and jerk
ing it up just in time for the
car TO miss it, or get on the track
and run off just in time to escape
being run over but this time
proved fatal. She was standing on
the track, facing the poll (which
was coming up to Reynolds to let
the gravel train pass,l and put her
foot mp as if she intended stopping
it. But. alas ere she could turn
to leave the track she had met
her sad fate and was crushed
to death. The poll car was run
ming down grade at speed Of 20
miles an hour, and it was impossi-
BILE for it to be stopped. The de-
ceased was fifteen years old and is
said to be a very pretty and ac-
compished young lady. Mr.. Blu
tier and family have the heartfelt
sympathy of the entire commune
ty in their sad afflictlon. Butler

Value OfTrees in Towns.

Mr.. Griffiths, the medical officer
of health for Sheffield in his report
upon the sanisary condition Of that
town during 1874, makes the fol-
lowing remarkable reference to
street taees: "In the formation of
new streets, and on the eve of the
contemplated widening and alter
alton of old ones, it is to be hoped
that an effort may be made to pro-
vide for the planting and estab-
llshment of trees wherever prac til
cable. The pleasing appearance of
verdure in summer, and the agree
ableness of the shade furnished by
the trees to pedestrians, are bene-
fits 10 the inhabitants well worth
the effort and the cast. Whoever
has visited the boulevards of con-
tinental towns, or even the squares
of London, can testify to the adj
vantages of verdure as offering
pleasure to the eye and gratifica-
ton to the mind. Moreover, from
sanitary point of view, the bene-
fits are of incalculable value. 1t has
been asserted that the aggregate
surfaces of the leaves of we'll grown
elm, lime and sycamore trees. with
their six to seven million leaves,
equal about 100000 square feet, or
about five acres, and these are al
most constantly absorbing aud di-
costing the carbonic acid and va
rious exhalationf given off by the
putrefaction of animal and vegeta-
BILE matter, as if grateful for such
support, return into the air pure
oxygen, which re-invigoraJes and
reneWs animal life. Trees thus re-
move poison from our midst, and
to be without them is an oversight.
Trees can be had which will exist
with suitable attention in any part
of the city,"
