June is the most debiIitating month of
the twelve, on horses and cattle, because of
the sudden approach of the heat of sum-
mer. Where impure blood exists in
animals, disease will surely PROSTATE them,
especially horses; they become wind
broken and surfeited, and the result is
lung fever. 25 or so cents expended for
Foutz's Horse and cattle powders will pre-
vent this, by purifying the system and save
the owrer all trouble and loss

The stories of Secretary Sherman's
wealth are said to be greatly exaggerated.
His estate in Mansfield, Ohio, which has
been estimated to be worth from $500,0O0
to $l,000,000, would not sell for $4,000.
In the opinion of some of his most intimate
friends he is worth less than 100000.

The divorce industry does not prosper as
it used to do in the Western States. Since
the lst inst it is a punishable crime for
lawyers in Illinois to advertise that they
will procure divorces, and the Indiana
Supreme Court has ruled that decree of
divorce issued in Utah between persons
neither of whom is recident of the Terri
tory is void and imperative. A statue of
Utah provides that where person applies
for divorce, if the court is satisfied that
the applicant is q resident of the Territory
or ''wishes to become one," the court may
grant divorce. The Supreme Court of
Indiana holds that this statute was ahra
vires and void, and that court of Utah
cannot thus obtain jurisdiction of non

Peninsula Union.

The uniting of the Peninsula under one
State government isrbeing discussed again,
the Milford Neacs having prompted the dis.
cussion by its article favoring such con-
solidation.
The Easton Star says "Here in Mary
land we are lightly taxed; we have first
rate market in Baltimore for all the
agricultural and horticultural products we
raise for sale; we have q liberal and
efficient school system; we understand and
are attached to our laws; our social and
business relations with the Western Shore
of Maryland are quite as pleasant as they
possibly could be with Delaware, and there
is no pressing reason for a change. 1t
would doubtless look better on the map
TO see the Peninsula all painted one color,
and that is about the only compensation
the Eastern Shore would gain by the
change"
The st. Micheals Comet says: "We
might be led to think seriously of the
matter if Delaware can show us that, under
her polity and as part of her entity, we
would have
lst--A better taxation and revenue
system. 2d-A better school system. Sd
"A better judiciary and police system
4th-A better oyster law. 5th--A better
and cheaper system of government in its
legislative and executive departments. 9th
"A purer ballot box and fairer expires

As Marylanders, we Eastern Shoremer
know just what we have, in these particu

ance, but we Marylanders have some con
iidence that we are in a better position il

The Rev. o. Howard Crosby proposes the
following plan of organic union of Protes-
tant churches "If we are to see the
church again made one, it must be by one
of two ways-either by all denominations
adopting the same identical creed and
method, or by all uniting through consent
to wide difference in creed and method.
1t must come about by so broadening the
subscription necessary to church member
ship and church ministry as to allow all
the forms and views now held by cvangeli-
cal Christians TO be included in one church.
The Episcopal, Congregational, Presbyterian
reformed, Methodist and Baptist bodies
could all be one, allowing individual men,
ministers and churches to cherish any of
the views and ways they now hold under II
pure evangelical character.n

ties we would say, Doudros is situated in shady
grove just on the bank of the waters of the
lake, the grounds are artistically laid out, and
the perfume Of thousands OF rare and exquisite
flowers scent the air. Messrs Jary & Hausse, the
popular proprietors, have, by their courteous and
kind attention to visitors, gained many friends,
and with the increased business of the house
they have spared no expense In improving It's
comforts. The Pontchartrain Railroad will have
ample accommodations for all, and trains will
run every half hour. To avoid the rush you
should purchase your tickets beforehand, which
are for sale at the Office Of the New Orleans and

Among the many changes to take place soon
on the grand boulevard none will be more strik-
ing and more indicative Of the good time to come
than the swaying to the breeze the banners Of the
grand "Palas Royal" Our enterprising friend
Levy, who has for 80 many years been the popu-
lar proprietor of the dollar store, No. 1877 Canal
street. seems to have had his faith shaken in re-
publican institutions and ideas, and is deter
mined, with one fell swoop, to obliterate the
name Of dollar store forever. He is making prep
arations for the opening Of this elegant and gor-
geous establishment, and nothing will be spared
in making it the most attractive place in the
Southern country. LEWIS dollar store is known
throughout the whole South, and as it has been
known for it's promptness in filling orders and
the polite attention Of the clerks and the place to
get everything, so will the Palais Royal grow
into popular favor, for we will see in the large
and gilded signs that are to adorn the building
evidences of new ere, prosperity which we
have longed for but never expected until the
present time.

Transfer the scene Of these disorders from
the North to the South, locate them In New
Orleans, Mobile Memphis or Atlanta, convert
this wild, excited mob Of operatives into
plantation hands, the militia into what the
militia Of the Southern States must needs be,
ex- Confederate soldiers, and what should we
not sect We should see the partisan press Of
the North siding with the rioters and oppo-
sing itself to constituted authority, assail in
discriminatory the whole native white popula-
ton of the South as murderers and rebels.
We should see the Administration using the
army not to sustain the conservative elements
of society, but to put these down. We should
ment used to sustain the forces OF misrule and
outlawry in the States. We should have
philosophc essays from partisan theorizers
about the turbulency of the Southern char-
acter, and the irreconcilability OF the
Southern temper. The bloody shirt Wo,ild
float triumphant on the breeze, and Mr. Blame
would be made man. What is the lesson,
therefore? Why, this: that the Northern
people are no ADLER to stand out against abnor-
NAL conditions that the Southern people; that
the ignorant masses of the North are no bet
ter than the ignorant masses OF the south,
but equally excitable and dangerous That
mobs are mobs In the one section as IN tne
of the law. During twelve years the govern
ment has put the mob, by force OF arms, over
the responsible people Of the South, and has
euetained fine leaders of the mob in pillaging
the defenseless public; and, because Of dis
tnrbance here and there at long interyals-in
no ease eaualIying the scenes during single
ho,1r enacted in loyal Pittsburg- large party
in the North has steadily demanded, and is
still demanding, the complete subsection Of
ali things Southern to just such direction as
the mob would give Pennsylvania to-day If it
