The 1naenendent Movement.

From the Baltimore Gazette Of July &c
With all due respect for the few worthy
people who are dissatisfied with the present as
poet of our politics, and much rs We sympa-
thze with them in their desire for pure gov
eminent, we must confess we are not sorry to
see them frightened out of q so-called 'Inde-
PENDENT movement Mt the very outset. Not
that any danger was TO be apprehended TO the
Democratic party from such a movement, but
because the efforts of such persons, which
would otherwise be frittered away, will now
be concentrated on efforts at reform within
the party lines. All parties need the lcaven
of reform constantly Mt work within them,
and the Democratic party Of Maryland is no
exception.
The history of fIndependcnt," no-party
movements is a wretched tale Of humbaggery
delusion, fraud and failure. AS general
rule, they lack cohesive power TO successfully
get through a campaign, and their failure
always emboldens the bad element in the par
ty they try to defeat. But where they sue
ceeded the result is still worse. Having
blinded the eyes of the public to their real
character, by their pretended zeal for honest
government, knowing that they do not have
the character of any party in their keeping,
and that no possible combination Of fortuitous
circumstances will ever again give them O
hold on the public purse strings, these pre-
tended reformerS become the boldest ana 1nosl
reckless of public plunderers. This is the his
tory of every movement of the kind that ha;
ever been tried, and should the people Of
Maryland ever be deluded enough TO try IT,
they will bitterly rue the day. Fortunately
the character and origin of the ''reform'
movement in Baltimore is SO well known and
thoroughly distrusted as to completely kill j
in its inception. The honest citizen may vel
pause at the threshold before entering TO joir
the company which the open door reveals Il
him. The Democratic sorehead and the Radi
cal Joined hand in hand the elected Gran
oficeholder and the disappointed offlceseeker
| in sweet commune KnowNothing and the
religious fanatic arm-in-arm; Customhous'
gangs, the political Tags and hangers-on in thu
background make up motley crew, before
which the sincere seeker for reform may wei
| stop and ask "Cui bono ?n And that is jus
the crowd that is egging on the reform move
ment we hear talked of now in the Radica
press, which is the paid vehicle Of these pc
litcal hucksters of the Customhouse. Thu
whole thing is a miserable, Totton fraud in
| spired by the enemies of the Democratic par
| ty. And any Democrat who joins in j
must be indeed lost to all sense Of decency i
his associations do not cause him to blush 70
shame. We print this morning the expires
| sions of a great number OF representative
journals of the party which indicate that III
game is pretty well understood. The Radica
organs, the Customhouse claquers and post
masters have failed in their purpose.

LOCAL AFFAIRS.

DEATH OF REV. WILLIAM PRETTYMAN.-This
gentleman, well and favorably known in our
county, and father of r. B. Prcttyman, Clerk
of our Circuit Court, died at his residence in
Delaware on the 2lst inst. His remains were
inferred in Mt Olvet cemetery at Baltimore,
on Saturday last The following account OF
the funeral we take from the Baltimore 1meTi-
can of Monday last:
"Tbe funeral of the late Rev. William Pret-
lyman, whose death was announced in the
Imerican several days ago, took place on Sat
urday afternoon. The remains arrived IN
Baltimore on Friday evening and on the fol-
lowing day were taken to the Caroline Street
NJ. n. Church The handsome casket con-
tanning The body was placed upon catafalque
in front of the altar and profusey decorated
with flowers. The attendance was very large,
and many persons were unable 10 gain admit
lance 10 the church. Among the prominent
Methodist ministers present were DR.. W.
Prsttyman, of West Virginia, and +. b.
Prettyman, Of Maryland, both sons of the de-
ceased Charles Smith, DR.. A. E. Gibson,
Samuel v. Leech, D. D.; w. S. Edwards,
DR.. G. W. Brown, DR.. Littleton, Thomas L.
Poulson, Frank Morgan, VIM. B. Edwards,
D. II. Carroll, Charles w. Baldwin, r. N.
Bner, W. II. Holiday and several others.
The services began by singing hymn, after
which ferveut prayer was offered by the Rev.
W. II. Holiday. The Rev W. S. Edwards
then delivered brief eulogy on the life and
labors Of the deceased. The congregation
sang hymn, after which the Rev W. H..
Holiday, of Eutaw Street NJ. L. Church, made
short address. The casket containing the
remains was then transferred TO a hearse and
followed by a cortege of unusual length TO Mt.

A CoURT ! 900 YEARS OLD CLOSES ITS DooRs
FOREVER .-On July an august and ancient
tribunal, the most so of any save the "High
list. On that;dRy the Court of Queen's Bench,
which represents q tribunal held before the
King at least one thousand years ago, sat for
the last time, and will probably never sit again
1t is a curious circumstance that, reckoning
from the accession of Alfred in S7l-the
earliest date at which such jurisdiction can
be shown to have been exercsed-to the year
1870, when the original of the Judcature act
which abolished it was introduced, Just one
thousand years should have elapsed. To Sir
Alexander Cockhurn, certain in many res
poets not the least distinguished series, belongs
the melancholy distinction Of being the last
Lord Chef Justice of England. The juris-
diction of the Court, it is true, is preserved
by the Judicature act, and is vested in a d.
vision of the High Court Of Judicature. And
its peculiar jurisdiction is vested in that d.
vision exclusively. But rs that great court,
which has existed ever since the conquest as
distinct and separate tribunal, with that high
and lofty jurisdiction which could originally
only be exercised by the King in person, and
was so exercised ever since the time Of Alfred,
as that great court of the king, inferior only
to Parliament in greatness and in dignity, its
history has closed. 1t has, however, a great
history, a history of ten centuries duration
closely connected with the constitution of the
country through long succession of ages, and
associated with a series of great names and
historic, often tragic, oyeEts.-London Times.

The Attorney General has sent TO the Presi-
dent an opinion adverse to the Chorpenning
claim. lie holds that the present Postmaster
General is not authorized to pay the addition
al amount found due by the late Postmaster
General, for the reason that Congress repealed
the resolution of reference before the money
was paid. He is also of the opinion that the
Court of Claims has jurisdiction in the case,
but holds that the amount found due by the
late Postmaster General is not an award
which the Court can enforce, and unless Con-
gress intervenes the claim is barred by the
statute Of limitation.
