Letter from Cracklin District.


UNITY, January 9th, 1876.
Mr.. Editor: The social enjoyment of this
community was very much augmented on
Thursday evening, 9Th instant. by II musical
concert, given nj Mount Carmel NJ. p. Church,
by The singing class of this place under the
direction OF Prof. G. W. Walker. This class.
under the instruction Of Prof W., has made
Judging from the manner in which the menu
bcrs acquitted themselves ia The exercises Of
the concer,) wonderful progress. We have
been informed. upon the best authority, that
nearly all those who participated in the ex-
ercises had only had The advantage of two
terms Of instruction in vocal music
The organist on that occasion, Miss Maggie
Townsend, performed her part SO well thai
the audience gave frequent expressions OF their
qualification hy long and continued applause
To our certain knowledge, Miss T. has only
hld seven or eight months instruction in in
slrunienia music, much of which time she was
prevented from prActicing by sickness. We
predic! for her much pleasure and enjoyment
when her musical talent is fully developed
We must not fail 10 mention the perform
ance of little girl, the youngest and smallest
we have ever seen seated al an organ before
an audience to dispense music The piece she
played was entitled 'All for Jesus" 1t is n
very beautiful piece. and SO well and perfectly
lid she execute her part that when she retired
the congregation aoplauded her most entbn-
siasticnlly. We do not think we would do
her justice if we failed 10 mention her name
in this correspondence therefore, Mr.. Editor,
if you should see fit to visit our nrighbOrhood
for the purpose Of seeing the youngest and
smallest organist in our county, it would give
US much pleasure to accompany You in a call
on Miss Marian Gronmes. Prof W. in in
Producing her, took occasion to say that she
only had about two weeks instruction. and
consequently only the same amount Of prac-
tice
The exercises consisted in solos duets. quar-
tettes ind full ch0ruses all of which were per-
formed admirably We will not attempt TO
describe the excellent manner in which the
Young ladies and gentlemen acquitted them
selves fer we are aware of our inability to do
them justice We will however, say there
not single failure. Pro W. is
perfect gentleman, thorough musician. and
very popular AS teacher of vocal mnsic.-
While he does not profess TO he practical per-
former on the organ. he il fully prepared 10
give all necessary instruction in that branch
of'music. When we speak Of Prof Walker
it will be remembered that il is he who CON
trihutes so much to the enjoyment Of hundreds
and thousands who are in the habit Of attend
ing the .MnSi al jubilee annually held al
Ridgeville He has now seven or eight schools,
and from our personal knowledge of their
whereabouts. we predict that the next "Musi-
cal Jubilee will be held somew where near
Unity.
Prof W has placed in the homes OF several
of our most respectable citizens very superior
Estev Organs so that we now have a commu-
nifty capable Of entertaining in high degree

Mr.. Ed@or Il noticed in the columns OF The
Baltimore weekly Sun of Saturday last, that
at meeting of the Maryland Agricultural
Association held in Baltimore on Thursday
last, a paper WAS read by the esteemed presi-
dent OF the Associaiion-A. b Davis, Esq
-tTvoring the exemption of cultivated land
from taxation, in which paper, among other
things, lie draws comparison between the
expenses of the State, some thirty years ago
when old fashioned simplicity, efficiency and
economy prevailed and what they now are
comparison which behooves every Taxpayer
to ponder well.
In fnrtherance OF its officer, the paper goes
on to show, that, only as far back as thirty
years ago, q session of the Legislature
cost $40 $50; II now costs l9l 1872 !:
The Judiciary then cost S35 500 il
now costs sol, 625 the treasury then cost
So $50, ii now costs Si6,S 25; the land office
then cost $3.50, itnow costs 81, 500 arms aud
military then cost 81 100 they now cost S23 =
SIG; the printing Of the State then cost 81 =
400, it now costs 500 000 colleges academies
aud schools then cost Sl2, 500, they now cost
$50, 000; and so on.
The above is enough, 1.-THE paper goes on to
say, 10 show The reckless extravaganza (fur
which the people are now taxed) as compared
with the system of our fathers when we had
as good laws. as much intelligence and homes
", 10 say the least, as we nave now, and
even-handed justice was dispensed as cheaply
ana quickly as now -
This is all very well said. as far as it goes
but exemptng any class of property from taxa
ton. as proposed by that paper, would hardly
remedy the evil, for it would only be shifting
The complaint on some other part of the bod
polite. The evil can only be cured by apply
ing the axe TO the root of the tree, by abolish
ing number Of useless Offices in the State.
and cutting down The exorhitani salaries with
which many OF the Others are now invested
There are men who have become so accustomed
TO sucking the public teat that they could not
live if they had not something of the kind TO
tug at; and who hold up their hands in per-
feet horror al the least suggestion to reduce
the public expenditures
Let men be sent TO the Legislature who will
not be influenced by any consideration out
side the public good, and who will favor no
higher rate of compensation in public official
than his services would be worth between man
and man. These public places were not in
tended as prizes 10 be set up and and run for
by the most artful dodgerS-men who would
live without work; but they were made for
the purpose Of enabling the people the more
conveniently to transact their business in gov
erning themselves; and no man should expect
to receive more pay for such services than if
they were rendered private individual.

The Maryland Uuion and the Sentinel.

We regret that our neighbor, the Union
of Frederick, should attribute to us bad grace
in any matter, we certainly always Intend to
be decorons, but AT the same time we propose
as Democratic paper, 10 exercise our dis
cretioa in the passing events Of the dav, to
MI our reading columns with such matter as
we deem profitable to our readers and 10 the
interest of The party. We claim to publish n
paper unirammeed by any one man. any set
Of men, or any ring, and whenever the Demo-
cratic party speaks through its conventions
we have uahinchi0gls and fearlessly support
Cd lis nominees
But our neigheor, the Union, saws its desire
was TO have justice done to Mr.. Richie nv
publishing his letter. We can scarcely tb;nk
it would be doing Mr. Ritehie justice to pub.
fish letter of his Addressed to the NEE tinc in
Baltimore, the avowed and ostensible purpose
OF which was to throw reproach and odiun,
upon the Democratic party. We feel justified
in saving that the many friends of Mr.. Ritbie
in this county would have greatly preferred
II he had never written that letter. The De.
mocraey of Montgomery county deal in moth
ing but fair and straightforward elections
We achieve our victories by honest votes.
We claim this as a cardinal virtue OF our par.
ty at home, and we feel ever bound TO conced,
the same high standard of integrity to oui
bEelbren in Baltimore, and before we ever
join in the cry Of ftaud, corruption, violenc.
and mob law by the Democratic party. w,
must have better evidence of the facts than

no sympathy with set of men who, by
fraud, corruption and every other means,
have for the last fifteen years trodden HE lib
critics of the people in the dust and robbed ev-
cry public treasury into which they could
get their hands When ouch men as these
say the Democratic party has been guilty %
fraud and invite Democrats 10 attend their
meetings Of indignation II sounds very much
like inviting Christians 10 go TO church TO
hear the de- il preach The gospel.
Our neighbor uses this language in regard
to the SENTINEL: sour contemporary, how
ever, has for some tine labored under the
cloud of an equivoca paternity We
can not, It's true, boast long line of ances-
try; our existence sprung into being with
the Know-Nothing party; we started life as
its avowed opponent and from that time no
other flag has foated from our masthead but
that of the Democratic Conservative rarty,
and until within a short period the SENTINEL
has been its only journal in this county.
This county has been true to its party, has
ably supported Mr.. Richie in the past, and
would as zealously support him in the future
if nominated by the party. Montgomery
county, with the SENTINEL as its Democratic
organ, has not been in the habit of giving
Democratic majorilies one year, and radical
majoriies the next Nothing short of federal
bayonets and military power has for years
past ever been able TO defeat the Democracy
Of old Montgomery.
Il H. - Inn
and how is it now in Frederick county
The Union has been one OF The Democratic
lights of Frederick county, and in the past,
doubtless, has been rs honest as il is now,
and has kept the Democratic party ofFrederick
pure, as it would have been, even if the I'm
ion had never been published. Yet with all
the purity and honesty of The teachings of
the Union, Frederick county from being one
Of the strongest Democratic counties in the
Sia'e, is, to-day, hopelessly in the power of
the Radicals
And yet this same Union would fcign give
the SENTINEL few lessons a to hat it should
publish, and how it should act TO preserve the
purity of the Democratic party that it might
present an unbroken front in the coming presi-
DENTAL campaign.
In reply we would say it is our most earnest
desire that the lessons and teachings of the
Union may prove more advantageous to the
Democratic party of Frederick county in the
future than they have been in the pact We
will shake hands with our neighbor over this
bloody chasm" and pledge it, that in the
coming presidential election, Montgomery
county will be found all right, and we expect
then TO Stand with pride by our victorious
brethren of Baltimore.
Will the Union look to it well, and see that
Frederick county shall stand il, that same vic
torous procession ? Nothing short of this will
be sufficient TO wipe out the sin of which the
Union has been guilty of, listening 10 Radi-
calls Know Nothngs and Custom House Off
Gals in Baltimore preach honesty and purity
TO the Democratic party.
