Maryland Temperance Alliance.

The Maryland State Temperance Alliance
closed its two days session in Baltimore, on
Wednesday last. The sessions were we'll
attended.
Resolutions were adopted declaring that
prohibition is the only safeguard for the pro.
lection Of rights, property and interests Of
citizens that it is the right and duty Of
voters to know the views on this question Of
men asking Office, and in preference to form.
ing third party vote only for those in favor
of our views; that it is the duty of parents,
ETC., to give special instructions on temper
ancei that efforts should be made to give the
mass of the people thorough education on all
important points involved in the question.
through the medium of the press, lectures,
ETC.; that the reform clubs which have been
Toned are welcomed as valuable aids in
the work; that the people Of Maryland, who
have to bear the burdens inflicted by rum.
should have the power to determine their
continued existence or suppression, and that
therefore, the principles Of focal option should
be extended by law to all sections of the
State not already under its influence, and
that the churches Of Maryland should regu.
larly contribute to the temperance cause as
they do TO other christian causes.

A dog show commenced on Tuesday
morning at the hippOdrome, New York.
About 1900 animals, Of every species,
were on exhibition. Among the more
distinguished were Burgess famous setter,
Rob Roy, valued at $4,000 A Japanese
spaniel, by name Chang, attracted much
attention, as, likewise, Mr., Byrne's trick
dog Sprise The attendance of the public
was quite numerous, aud included many
ladies. Next to a baby show We think a
dog show is the most ridiculous thing
Such exhibitions, however, are becoming
quite frequent and rather popular, judg-
ing from the number of people who attend
them, Two Chesapeake Bay dogs were
awarded premiums of $50 and $50, at the
above mentioned show. A similar show
was recently held in Baltimore, which was
also well attended.
The speech of Mr. Bergh, at the opening
of the exhibition, is worthy of being re-
produced in the Advocate, and We give II
below;
At $50 o'clock the show was formally
opened from the central platform by Mr.. w.
NJ. Tlesion, Of the Westminster Kennel Club,
who explained that the junior members Of the
club conceived the idea Of holding a bench
show, and carried it out on receiving the con.
sent Of the senior members. General A. s.
Webb, President of the club, said the heads
of local colleges had done all they could to
improve the human race, and he had great
pleasure in introducing one who bad not only
done everything to elevate the human race by
theoretically and in spite Of strenuous oppo-
sition taking from public view sights and
practices that above all others tend to debase
and degrade humanity, but also the animal
race by seeing to and insisting on its comfort,
He had the honor to introduce Mr.. Henry
Bergh. (Cheers.)
''Gentlemen, said Mr. Bergh, beaming
with his sad yisage almost cheerful upon the
assembly, ~ think this exhibition of dogs has
never been surpassed, and the most unquali'
fed commentator is due to its managers.
Their purpose means progress and improve.
ment. 1t is not to cause two dogs to grow
where one grew before, and SO be public
benefactors but to improve the race. In
India exist wild dogs who, no wonder, will
have nothing to do with mankind-they must
have heard how the New York Aldermen treat
dogs. Civilization, too, seems to demoralize
the dog. He is lazy-as city official with a
salary of $4,000; he will steal food, but he
doesn't drink liquor, smoke or chew tobacco,
and eschews politics isn't given to dogmas,
though his ma is dog; the dog days aud the
dog.watch are derived from him, but not
doggerel. | had better not speak of his moral
character. We should suffer so by the com.
parison. "Cs qu'a y de plus bon dams
fhomme c'est le chen says the French
aphorism. Your dog clings to you when your
children abandon you. Neglect him, beat
him, he is faithful still.
In conclusion Mr.. Bergh quoted the follow.
ing lines
With eyes upturned. his masters look TO scan,
The joy, the sOlace and the aid OF man
The rich mans guardian and the poor mans friend,
The only creature faithful 10 the end.

A Disinterested Gift.

On Monday evening last, our very estima.
BILE citizen, G. W. Matthews, Esq, appeared
before the City Fathers, and, free OF all charge,
presented them a deed from himself and wife
for what Is known as the Public Square, near
the Reform Cnurch. The gift was accepted
in neat speech by member of the Board,
and motion of thanks, in behalf of the
people, unanimously rendered the liberal
donor. The title to this valuable central and
beautifully situated Public Square is now alb.
solutely invested in the City Of Westminster,
and by the terms of the deed, it is to be used
for purposes of pleasure, recreation and peace
able gatherings, free TO all her citizens. 1t
now remains for the city to protect and deco.
rate this Public Square, and to make il suiii
GENTLY attractive, at the same time it is the
duty OF every person to protect it as he would
his own property. Doubtless the time will
come, when, by the wisdom of the people,
this Square will be like Maebeth's Castle
which had pleasant seat, where the air MIN.
bly, and sweetly recommends itself unto our
gentle senses. NJ.

President Hayes aud ex-governor Tilden
to its annual dinner, on the 18th instant,
President Babcock says "thc members Of

for years, to invite the President of the

Governor Of New York, and as many ex-
Governors as resided in this city; also the

THE MARYLAND CoLLEdIAN is the
title of new monthly folio just issued by
the Literary Societies of St. Johns Col
lege, Annapolis. In tho leading article,
"CUI Bone" the editors say-"As far as
we know, no College in Maryland has I'M
dertaken the publication Of College pa
per, SO that We are pioneers in this field in
the State" The students Of the WEST
ERN MARYLAND COLLEGE, in this city,
have had the subject under consideration,
but have not yet matured their plans
The articles in the CoLLEGIAN are written
with becoming cleverness, ability and
gravity. The latter quality is moi always
expected in the productions of the juvenile
mind. Only one article refers to the Ia
dies We mention this to the credit of
the youthful editors. Solomon says "there
is time for all things" but the student
has but little time to devote to the ladies'.
After his scholastic days are ended, then,
if it pleases him, he may turn his atten-
ton to the fair. Until that period arrives,
he should remember, that,
A youth to be distinguished in his art, art, art
Must keep the girls away from his heart heart heart.
Since the above was written, we learn
from an alumnus of the Western Mary
land College, that in 1869 and 1870 the
IRVING GAZETTE was published by the
Irving Literary Society of Western Mary
land College. The publishers of the COL
LEdIAN, therefore, are not the pioneers in
this field, as they suppose.

A Certain Cure for Hydrophohia.

We invite special attention to DR.. Gus
tayus Stoy's celebrated cure for hydrOphO.
bia, communicated TO tho Democratic
Adrocafe by DR.. Henry 4. Beltz, Of Man
chester, in this county, which appears on
the first page Of this issue, DR.. Beltz has
done a most eommendable thing in making
public this celebrated remedy for this fear
full malady. He is physician of long
practice aud much experience, and, as he
tells US in his communication, he has used
it himself with unfailing success in more
than one hundred instances. For the in
formation Of persons at distance who do
not know Or. Beltz, we win state that he
is the Register of Wills for this county,
but resides in Manchester, and has prac-
ticed medicine there for number of years
His professional brethren may rely i'm
plicitly upon his statement in the publica-
ton of this long.tested remedy, which he
has given to the public only at our request.
We also publish, ia connection with DR..
Stoy's remedy, another which has been
published in the Philadelphia Ledger, by
an eminent druggist of that city. If these
remedies will accomplish what is claimed
for them, and we have no doubt that they
will, the gentlemen who have made them
public are public benefactOrs and deserve
the thanks of the community, The bite
of a mad dog has long been considered
without an antidote and necessarily fatal,
except among persons having Knowledge
of this remedy and Of its successful appli.
cation. The formula Of DR.. Stoy, as well
as that of the Philadelphia druggist, ought
to be preserved by our readers, SO that, in
case of need, where physician cannot be
Immediately had, safe and sure remedy
may be at hand.

uneasy about the Russian men of war in

reported to have expressed himself very
feelingly on the subject to Mr.. Eyarts, but
what Mr.. Evarts is going to do about it is
matter Of conjecture. The fact that our

embarrassing circumstance, but the formal
