Radical Hopes.

The Baltimore Gazette of Monday last, says,
those foolish persons who believe that by
uniting with the Radicals they may defeat the
Democratic State ticket, aud are hand in glove
with the american in its crusades against the
Democratic party, will ponder on the situation
and consider where they are going. a little
while ago a leader in the american ran thus
IA good time is coming for the Republicans
of Maryland. The days Of the old Democracy
in our good old Commonwealth are numbered
and we think the vote of Maryland at ths
next Presidential election will no longer be
counted for the Democratic nominees"
And after INDUCING then in little hope
full exaliation in what our colored brethren
were to do (this was before the american had
discovered the colored vote to be ian element
of ''weakness)" the Organ goes on to say:
Baltimore city and the eight Northern
counties will seud a sufficient number of Re.
publicans to secure majority in both Houses
and will make quick work of calling a new
Convention and framing II Constitution based
upon equal representation and equal rights.
Two or three years hence we have consid-
cradle confidence that its political complexion
will be so thoroughly changed that it will bt
difficult to find Democrat in either House.
Hence we say good time is coming for the
Republicans of Maryland"
With the Legislature Republican and a new
Constitution, with Radical judges and color
ed juries, the Reformers will find a vast i'm
provemeut in our State and city.

The Peruvian Government has offered for
sale to buyers in the United States, fifty thon-
sand tons of guano, at the deposits on the
Peruvian Islands IN the Pacific. Heretofore
the contractors for this country have had a
monopoly for this trade, but it has been sus-
pended, and The Peruvian Government now
makes this offer itself. 1t is stated that only
the fifty thousand tons mentioned will be ex-
ported TO the United States during the next
year. There may probably be some competi-
ton among dealers in fertilizers in this coun-
try to get possession of the guano, though
the announcement is made that it will be sold
at fixed price.
