After awhile Mr.. Martin decided
to lend Ralston $500 on his own ac-

and giving it to him Ralston started
down the river TO join Commodore

ROASTING,

BY causing the contraction of the
cellular substance which contains
the fat, expels more fat than boiling.
The free escape of watery particles
in the form Of vapor, 80 necessary to
produce favor, must be regulated
by frequent basting with the fai
which has exuded from the meat,
combined with little salt and wa
ter-otherwise the meat would burn,
and become hard and tasteless. A
brisk fire at first will, by charrine
the outside, prevent the heat from
penetrating, and therefore should
only be employed when the meat il
half roasted. M
The loss BY roasting varies, accord.

How TO SWEEP CARPET NICELY
Take the outer leaves of cabbage.
chop them fine, sprinkle on them u
little water, strew them over the
floor, move them about carefully
with o clean broom (if you have no
carpet sweeper) then sweep a breadth
at q time, till every part is gone over,
and you will have little or no dust,
which is so annoying, and which set
ties on the pictures and ornaments.
To sweep the stairs use slop jar
with little water in it Ito prevent
the dust from flying, take whisk
broom stair by stair, and a small,
short brush. like a painters. brush. to
dust out the corners, then empty the
dust-pan step by step into the jar
by this means yon have no dust to
settle on the walls, or fall on the
carpet below, and the troubles Of
horrible sweeping days will begreat
ly alleviated.

Nichols of Louisiana, and will no longer be
connected with the Packard-Kellogg- Wells
iniquity. At this hour he is not wanted by
the Democrats. Since he first doomed into
prominence be has been nothing but party
separationist and apostate, always going with
the winning side TO get the spells. After his
deserton of the people with whom he fought
in the late war, and his later assistance in
trampling them under the heel of tyranny,

him take back seat in degradation, where
his record rightiully places him, along with

THE THREAT ENING DANGER.

While we scrutlnize the scenes which are
being daily enacted before the people Of this
country we cannot but be impressed wish the
idea that the fundamental principles Of consti-
tutonal liberty are being rapidly obliterated
by the cncroachments OF awloss nsurpation.
When we find the voice OF the people turned
over 10 a partisan and inscriptions returning
board, to be transformed to meet party ext
gencies and then are seriously told that their
action is final and that the representatives of
the people have no power to inquire into the
truth or falsity OF the return, ii certainly seems
that the primary object OF our government
compromising populas sovereignty is wilfully
and vciously frustrated. When we find
that il is the intention Of a party hold
ing the power 10 their own hands TO de-
clare that the prorogative OF passing upon the
validity of electoral votes is vested solely in
the presiding officer OF the Senate, it is an
hour when the people should begin to compre-
bend the danger of the situation. The leading
men of a political party would never hazard
their regulations and popularity upon opin-
ions so directly and palpably at variance with
all constitutional provisions and established
presidents, unless at the bottom Of it all was
eoncociing a conspiracy 10 establish an admin
islralion which will forever hereafter defy
popular opinion and retain either fraudulent
or forcibe control of the Government.
When we see supreme courts of States de-
ciding npon questions concerning State cleo
lions, which is their province alone, and then
hear the chief executive Of this nation exclaim-
ing, On such supreme courts, - and pro-
ceeding forthwith to determine the question
himself, without evidence and without argu-
ment, in the interest Of the political party
which lie claims TO represent, and then upholds
that decision with the aid of Federal bayones,
we witness the overthrow of one Of the proud
est principles Of our Government which says
that the military shall be subordinate to the
civil authority. Are these usurpalons, if
Mr.. Hayes is to be inauguraed through this
scheme of monslrous fraud, to serve prcce-
dents for the guidance of his administration
We conscientiously believe they will and if
he is TO be under The control of Zach. Chand-
Ter, and is to be led in the footsteps OF Grant,
trampling upon law, right and justice, then
let all minor consideraiio.s sink iuto insignif
canoe, and let even the spoations of war
desolaie our land, while we guard and protect
constitutional liberty, that We may transmit it
10 the next generation in the same unnltered
and unabridged character with which it was
handed TO US by the past generation.

MaryIand,s First Governor.

Governor Carroll has addressed letter to
Col j Thomas Scharl, in reply to the latter
suggesting public recognition Of the ce;en-
ninl anniversary Of the Inauguration OF Mary
lands first Governor. Governor Carroll ac-
quiesces in the suggestions made by the Colo
mel, and refers to the present time as one
peculiarly appropriate for such celebration
He says; In these times when our institu-
tons appear to be undergoing a severe strain,
and when, to the minds of many, the success
Of u party would seem to be more important
than the preservation in lis integrity of our
form Of government it is well to bring before
the people the enthusiasm that prevailed Al the
organization Of orr State, and the patriotic
hopes Of the men who laid the foundations Of
our prosperity. 1t is impossible that their
distinguished example should be so soon lost
upon our people, and rs their sacrifices were
great in creating the republic, so we must be
willing TO yield our prejudices in the interest
Of peace and order, ard tue preservation of n
system which has given US hundred years Of
happiness. If the celebration Of this anni-
versarv can help to renew this sentiment among
men Of all parties, shall be glad TO cooperate
in any way that can do honor to the memory
Of Maryland distinguished son.'
