M9-The Hon. VIM. P. Preston, president OF
the "ring" meeting at this place on Tuesday,
in his speech-which was of about one-hour
and a-halfs duration-hauled Hon. ]. Morrison
Harris over the Goals for being, as he said or
intimated, the instigator of the brutalties
committed by the ''blood tubs" in Baltimore in
1859. He forgot to say anything about his
friend Tom. Swami, who at that time was first
in command of the Know Nothings, but who
now holds an exalted position in the Democrat
ic party, and who is head-centre of the Demo-
cratic household. Mr.. Preston's memory is not
as good as it was some years ago, otherwise his
friend Thomas would have come in for share
of his abuse. Mr.. Harris is amply able to take
care of himself, and if he had good chance at
Mr.. Preston to-day he would makehim "see
more stars" than he did not many years back
on the occasion of joint discussion between
these gentlemen in the Baltimore county Court
House. Mr.. Preston no doubt remembers that
and is still in bad humor over his defeat on
that occasion.

&1- Hon. VIM. Pinkney Whyte, from whose
back Office the edicts of the ring Democracy
are issued, has declared that he deems it his
special prerogatve to follow Hon. J. Morrison
Harris around the State. We guess he will fol-
low at long distance, too. We have seen the
two together before when Whyte would have
saved his credit by being elsewhere. We sup
pose the "small" grandson Of his giant grand
father has proved himself inadequate to the
task of exposing Mr.. Harris connection with
the Young Mems Christian Association and
the fact that he was once member of the
"Know Nothing Party" 1t is mistake to
think that Pinkney Whyte is more expert at
this than the man whose blue-blood flows
down from the Declaration of Independence.
Mr.. Carroll makes very successful assailant
of the Know Nothings. Let him have all the
rope he wants.

Gs- 1t should not be forgotten by the Re-
publicans that the Republican Convention
recommended the Reform candidates "to ht
cordial support of the Republicans Of the State
as men eminertly suitable for their respective
positions, being both honest and capable" II
should not be forgotten that this was net has
tily nor unadvisedly done. But this step was
taken after mature deliberation and we'll ad.
vised councils had been held to consider the
matter. The Convention adjourned for two
weeks that there might be ample time to take
proper action. At the end of that time the
Convention came to the following conclusion
and so resolved
ait is the first and most imperative duty OF
every Republican to cooperate with those pa
trietic citizens of Maryland who have so no
bly, ignored party ties and party questions and
are engaged in an earnest effort to restore hon
est and pure government to our State"
This is the recommendation of the Republic
can Convention to the Republican voters oftht
State. The exigencies of the situation arc
such as call upon every Republican voter t.
give manly consideration and acquiescenct

Ns~A desperate eating affray occurred in
Pugh's saloon, Fayette street, next door to the
Rennert House, on Saturday nightlast. Aman
named J. Frank Morrison, one of the reporters
of the Baltimore Gazette, was in the saloon
talking to a friend, when man named Thos.
Bond, keeper of q saloon on Pratt street, came
in, very much under the infue of liquor
Some words of a trfing nature passed between
the men, when shortly afterwards, and when
Morrison was least expecting it, Bond rushed
upon him with an open pocket-knife and cut
him three or four times about the breast and
stomach, one of the wounds penetrating the
lung After the cutting Bond went to the po
lice station and gave himself up. Morrison
was removed 10 his home where his wounds
were examined by physicians who pronounced
them of very serious nature, though not
necessarily fatal.

ARE THEY RELIGIOUS BIGoTs ?-The Frederick
(Md.) Union, supporter of the "ring" nomi-
nees, and one of the ''fre-cating kind of Dem
ocratic papers, has this to say of Mr.. Carroll
and his friends:
owe think Mr.. Carroll and his friends make
mistake in giving so much prominence to the
religious side of the question when addressing
political assemblages. Religion and politics
will never mix, and no man should attempt to
cording to the dictates of his own conscience
This is good enough evidence that the "ring-
ties" are the men who are bringing religion in
to politics. Their own party papers charge il
upon them and they dare not attempt to deny
IT.
