A FACT WORTH NOTING.

1t is fact very significant and worthy Of
note, that no American citizen who ever
opposed the prosecution of war in which
this country was involved, with one soli-
tary exception, ever succeeded in being
elected to the Presidency. Speaking of
this, the Louisville Commercial says:

Proceedings of the Second Congressional
Convention.

The Second Congressional Convention
met in Waverley, Baltimore county, on
Wednesday last. Hon. J. T. Mccullough,
of Cecil, was chosen President, and G.. B.
Jean, of Baltimore county, Secretary, and
l.. G. Myerly, of Carroll, Asst Secretary.
Col. j. L. Frieze moved that the counties
be called and the credentials of the dele
gates be handed the Secretary, which was
adopted.
Mr.. Jos. B. Pugh remarked that as there
was committee present representing the
Reform party, the Convention would be
happy to hear from them, and made mo-
ton that the Chair appoint committee of
five to confer with the Committee of the
Reform party; Ii. g. Longnecker, Jos. b.
Pugh, j. T. Evans, J. E. Stoutfer and A.
Mccormick were appointed. The Com
mittee retired, and after an absence of half
an hour returned with the following report
and resolutions, which were read and
adopted:
Your committee respectfully report that
after full interchange of opinion with the
committee of gentlemen representing the
Reform sentiment of Baltimore county,
who state that the general desire of those
whom they represent is that Hon. J. Nor
rison Harris would allow the use of his
name as the Reform candidate for Con-
gress in the Second Congressional district,
we are satisfied that such feeling is uni
yersal in this county; and knowing it to be
the prevailing sentiment of the Reformers
in the other counties of the district, we
offer the following resolutions:
ResoIoed, That this Convention concur
cordially with the Reformers of Baltimore
county in asking Hon. J. Morrison Harris
to allow his name to be used as the Reform
candidate for Congress in the Second Con-
gressonal District of Maryland.
Res0lced, That in doing SO we do not ask
or need any pledges or professions from Mr..
Harris, but, looking at his record in the
canvass of last Fall, in which campaign he
represented us and our interests for the
executive chair of the State, his past SER
vices in Congress and his known character
as man, we are convinced that the inter-
ests of the district will be safe in his hands.
Res0t0ed, That a committee of one from
each county be appointed to communicate
these resolutions to Mr. Harris, and to So
licit his prompt, favorable response thereto.
The following committee was appointed
to communicate with Mr. Harris: John X.
Harvey, John E. Smith, l. Z. Ceilings, j.
T. Mccullough and Col. J. T. Freze.
After adoption of some resolutions en-
doTsing Hayes and Wheeler, the free school
system and against sectarian appropropria-
lions and arraigning the Democratic party
of this State as being controlled by a nefari-
GUS ring, and kept in power by the ballot
box stuffing and intimidation, the Conven-
ton adjourned.

HumOrs Of the Campaign.

Under this head the Germantown 7'ele-
graph says: Among the Indiana candi-
dates is Democratic member of Congress
whose bill, as officially signed by the House
Committee of Accounts, is a curiosity.
1t embraces soap enough to supply whole
neighborhood, brown soap, CASTLE soap,
coarse, perfumed and fine of all kinds.
Boxes upon boxes of all these soaps were
paid for out of the public treasury. There
were three dozen large feather brushes.
In fact the largest boarding house in Phila-
delphia could not use up all these things
in year. And this man was one OF the
Reformers. Then there is the Democratic
candidate for President, Tilden, confron-
ted with two affidavits of his, one swearing
down his income to about seven thousand
dollars, and another owning up in railroad
fees from one company amounting to over
eighty thousand dollars. Both are saoorn
to, and it appears that neither of them
state the whole case! His gains are ad-
mitted on all sides to have been very great,
but he alleges in defence that he lent his
brother in that year over two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars (Which measures the
real extent of his income) and that they
sunk it. In answer to this it appears that
the money lent to his brother was invest
ed in distillery, and that it was not lost
at all. Taking the case altogether the
Democrats appear to be about the most
remarkable reform party ever known.
The Democratic candidate for Governor
of Florida is proven to have been Con-
federate by his adherents, yet in 1868 he
swore that he had never in any way aided
the rebellion.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1876-09-23

DURING the canvass, it will be dinned
necessarily into the peoples ears that Re-
publicanism is the cause of the present
hard times in this country, and that with
the election of Tilden prosperity will re-
turn. But these fierce Democratic orators
will prudently say nothing about the cause
of the hard times in all the commercial
centers of the world. Day before yester-
day in England five large iron firms became
bankrupt the liabilities of one of which
exceed S., 10000 Of course the Repub-
lican party was the cause of these failures
and of those which are occurring every day
in Berlin, and Vienna, and Paris, and Lis
bon, and Melbourne, and Montreal Ger
tainly, the Republican party is as much
liable for the commercial distress in foreign
countries as in the United States, and
Tilden's election will bring as much pros
perity to Canada, Europe and Australia as
to this country-that is to say, it will bring
none at all.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1876-09-23

WE have heretofore alluded to the dan
ger of presentation of vast amount of
Southern war claims, in case of Tilden'
success. Even while the Democracy have
but one branch of Congress, this danger
has been obvious enough, as appears from
an article in the indianapolis Journal.
1t publishes complete list of the private
bills presented to the House during the
last session-140 in number-and foots up
the total amount claimed at 81, $50, 900
In addition to these, it calls attention to a
bill now pending to refund to the South
ern States certain direct taxes, amount
ing to 2,492, 10; to another bill for re-
funding the tax paid on raw cotton, from
1868 to 1868, amounting to $6S, 072, 1888; to
another bill directing the allowance of
compensation for the use and occupation
by the United States army during the war,
and to another one to pay for stores and
supplies taken by or furnished for the
United States army, including the use and
loss Of vessels and boats.

THAT INCOME TAX.

MIR. TILDEN's LAWYERS AND CLERks GRIND
OUT LONG REPLY ON THE INCOME TAN
BUSINESS.
Mr.. A. S. Hewitt, of New York, chair
man of the Democratic National Commit
tee, published in the papers of Thursday,
a long reply, prepared by Mr.. Sinnott,
formerly clerk in Tilden's office, to the
charges of making false returns. 1t is i'm
possible, without careful analysis and fur
Their information, to say with confidence,
whether the charges are answered or not,
but it is certain that, instead of concise
reply, clearing away absolutely the extraor-
binary contradictions of his own two aft
davits, Mr.. Tilden's defense is extremely
long, elaborate, and involved. The two
affidavits are brief and in a moment COM
pretended, but the answer is not clear. A
few days will be required to ascertain how
much value the reply really has. The New
York Times, which discovered and has since
been keeping the matter before the people,
says, in conclusion of a long article on the
subject:
CATER waiting so long, it is somewhat
remarkable that Mr.. Tilden should have
attempted any defense at all; after attempt
ing it, nothing but conscious guilt could
have made his answer the contemplate far
rago OF half truths and evasions which it
is. We are glad, however, that Mr.. Tilden
has rested part of his case on simple
issues of fact. There we are quite willing
to meet him, and shall with all the haste
which the examination of mass of legal
and other records admit of, prove that he
has attempted to conceal perjury by false
hood, and to hide fraud by the arts of the
pettifogger and the shyster."
Part of the Times article is as follows:
"1Aird-In regard to the two fees of
$4,000 each received for services rendered
to the bond holders of the St. Louis, Alton
and Terre Haute Railroad, Mr.. Tilden is. of
course, unable to get behind his oath. But
with his wonted short sighted cunning, he
attempts to cover up the facts under a
cloud of words. In all these there are but
two definite statements, and these are eva
sive. /. That of the $1,000 received on
October II, 1862, mo appreciable part, if
any, can be apportioned to the year 1862. ,
2. That of the $4,000 received on Novem-
Der Z, mo considerable part of these ser
vices belong to the year 1862 And yet,
sixty three pages, or more than half of Mr.
Tilden's answer to the suit of the injured
stock holders, are taken up with the cita-
ton of legal instruments purporting to
have been made in 1862.
"FourM.-lt is explicitly denied that
Mr.. Tilden received any fees, compensa-
ton, or payments from one Chicago and
Northwestern Company in the year 1862.
1t is not denied, however, that he earned
such an amount in 1862, and was paid for
it in a subsequent year. Mr.. Tilden must
not con!ine his attention to receipts in
one part of his answer and to earnings in
another. He must take some one construc-
ton of the law and abide by it."

BISHOP JAMES died in New York, on
Monday last. In his death the Methodist
Episcopal Church of the United States has
sustained a great loss. Not only as the
senior member of the episcopacy, but as a
wise counsellor, an eloquent preacher, and
a devoted Christian minister. Bishop
James was eminent in his day and genera
ton. He lived to a ripe old age and his
long life was crowded with unceasing labor.
He was constantly called to positions of
honor and trust in the various philanthropic
organizations with which a man of his
zeal and public spirit was likely to be con-
nected. In the prosecution of his arduous
and multifarious duties he travelled in many
lands. Of all his work it may be truly
said that it was well done.
