PERsoNAL.-As the circumstance.
which led to the late arrest Of our coun-
lyman and friend, Joseph S. All>tan,
Esqr., in Baltimore has been mi>under-
stood. if not misrepresented, in some
sections of our county. we have felt
ourselves called upon to make public
the bottom facts" in the case as de-
tailed in a late issue of the Baltimore
Daily Gazette. These show beyond
peradventure, not only that Mr.. Allstan
was innocent of fraud or any attempt at
fraud. bu, that he was made the victim
Of an outrage calculated, whether so in
tended or not, to injure hi. personal and
business standing. He has sought re-
dress in the Courts and we do not per-
mt ourselves to doubt that he will OBJ

the regular call Of the dockets and the

FOREIGN AND HONE OUTLOOK. The
foreign situation, since our last issue. is
without change worthy OF special men,
ton. No attempt has yet been made
by the Russians to cross the Danube
and their movements in Asiatic Turkey
are still chiefly strategetrc. The pres
cnce OF The Car at the front, which is
set down for Wednesday of the present
week, Is likely 10 initiate a forward
movement by the Russians. Tn the
meanwhile, the position OF England is
becoming 80 menacing towards Russia
tina, the good Offices of Prince Bismarck
have been offered to arrest war tenden.
cies in that direction. The altitude of
either European nationaIities in the
Cross. Crescent cmbroglio has been
without change during the past week.
President MacMahon still "holds the
fort at home nor does he appear to be
greatly concerned by The war-like pos
turing Of Prussia. Gen. Grant has been
voted the freedom Of the city Of Lon
don. and beside the civic honors paid
hun. the Queen and mobility are inviting
him 10 dinners and other entertainments
innnmera5le. An enthusiastic church
dign,tary, n relation doubtless of the
Mayor of Liverpool, describes the Ex.
president as the author Of the new era
OF good feeling which obtains among
Americans to-day" This will be news
on this de Of the water.
President Hayes appears to be pur-
SUNG the even tenor OF his way without
much concern as to what parties or poll
t'cians say or think Of him. /, is like
ly he has made some mistakes in his
appointments, but we are not aware
that he has thus far ru, any man in Of
flee OF stained character and il is certain
he has rid the public service of MANY
corrupt and incompetent officials
Hayes and Grant Republ,canism are
very different parts Of speech. Whilst
making entangling alliances with no kind
OF Republicanism, Postmaster Kew TO the
contrary Notwithstanding as between
Hayes and the old corrupt Grant rings
which are fighting him, patriotic dem
Gratis should not hesitate for a moment.
They should throw the weight Of their
influence for Hayes and make common
cause with him, 20 the extent at least
that he is making common cause with
them. No damage can come to our
party by this Course and great benefits
can be secured TO the country by it.

GJJohn G. Thompson, chairman of
the Ohio democratic state committee, is
quite sanguine that the democrats will
carry Ohio. He says the plank which will
probably be adopted at che convention
next month will be an endorsement of
the policy of President Hayes, so far as
il is in accord with the doctrines which
have always been advocated BY the de-
mGcracy: demand for the uncondition-
al repeal Of the specie resumption act
and the restoration of the old silver dol
lar as legal tender in any amounts Tor
public and private obligations.

RAiS.-Thcugh the slight showers of
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday last did
not afford good planting season, they
were Of great advantage 10 tabacco
plants. the corn crop and even wheat,
In localities where these showers were
heavier, few thousand tobacco plant,
were set out, but, generally, planters
preferred waiting awhile longer to risk

II the present promise of a good season
in 4 day or 50 shall be realized, it will
enable farmers to pitch the bulk o:,heir
crop, plants being abundant and the land
ready for planting.

Of 81 Masy's county, Nd.
The sad dessh q This Interesting boy, 50 sud-
den in It's occurrence and 50 painful in It's man
ner, has FLIED his afflicted parents with grief
too great for consolation or u,terance
In the early morning Of what promised 70 be q
long, happy and useful lise, his existence was
suddenly ended, under circumstances 90 tortrr-
ing rs 70 excite i'm our breasts the prosoun dest
feelings Of pity mingled with horror. Who can
describe or realize the fear and agony which
must hsve wrunx M us0sherss hears, awhen amid
the stiffness Of night she ID suddenly startled from
the calm and peaceful rcpose which close the DAY
born developed in . sheet q liquid lightning,
and to have her ears pierced by the screams Of
his mortal agony! Nopea can dojustice to such
q picture, and language becomes utterly power
lees to depict such a-scene. Eugene Was bright
sprighdy and most promising boy; loving. flial
and ohcdien,; and all who knew him well, re-
spected and loved him for these qualities. But
ly gave him credit for the possession VI the he
roic fortitude and patience be displayed in the
fearful sufierings that attended his death.
With more than half the skin roasted from his
flesh and hanging in long shrcds from his help
less hands and arms he waved his mother away,
and pointing to the blazing furniture exclaimed,
'.Never mind me, Ma put out the fire ~ And
though the long and dreary night and day
which pesscd before WELCOME death ended his
fearful agony, scarcely word Of complaint
passed his parched and burning lips; but he AZ
cepted the assurance that every thing possible
WIS being done for his relief; and soothed by
trustfui confidence In the love and tenevo,erce
Of his friends and the goodness Of his God, he
calmly awaited the hour which was to end his
suferings.
Truly here was spectacle Of fortitude and he
roism only equallcd BY that Of Isaac beneath the
sacrihcial knife Of Abraham, or the trustful and
unfinchins obedienceof Cassabianca to the stern
command of his father!
Let this thought then, mingled with their re-
gre's be a balm to the grief of his friends: and
when time, which cures all wounds and assua,es
all griefs, shall soften the recollection Of this
frightiul catastrophy into a tender memory, il
shall ming'e with that memory drop Of sweet
ness which will rob i, Of all its bitterness.

THE FLAG OF THE PRopHEr.-The
sacred emblem of Turkish faith will play
a great role in this war. II is dark
green, about two yards long and one
and a-half wide, and was originally a
curtain in the bedchamber Of Aischa,
the best beloved wife of the prophet,
who died in her bed. When Mo-
BANNED was on his death-bed, and
about TO take leave of his generals, who
were about TO enter upon a new cam
paign against the heather, the diving
prophet gave them the curtain that over
hung his bed as battle flag, so that the
faithful should forever remember that
they were doing battle for God and his
prophet. Ever since that time, when
ever the caliphs went into battle they
took this flag with them, but in la
ter years ii was resolved 10 carry this
holy relic into battle only whenever
war of religion was being waged.
In 1868 the same flag waved from
the walls Of Vienna, and again whenev-
ef the cause Of Islam had TO be defended
it was unfurled TO rally the faithful
and encourage them to deeds of heroism.
What, however, is the most important
feature Of this flag is the belicft that any
Mu>sulman who fights and falls under
its shadows dies a martyr, tor whom
the portals Of heaven are opened at
once. From the ealiphs OF old this
banner has been sacredly retained by
the sultans Of our day, in order to in
spire still mere zeal in their soldiers
Yesterday the unfolding of this time
honored banner took place with great
pomp and ceremony BY the Sultan, Ab-
dull Hamid, in person, who handed it to
the Sheik El-Islam in solemn trust
The latter was mounted OH a horse lit
orally covered with gold, and while
holding the sacred banner in his hand,
he was accompanied by the Sultan,
himself also on horseback, with sword
in hand. through the principal streets
Of Constantinople. Couriers and her
aids preceded the two high disnl-
taries Of State, and, pointing to the I'M
furied banner. loudly proclaimed to the
people that the war for the faith had
commenced. This morning the same
rehc-which the Turks regard with the
same holy awe as the Israelites OF old
did the Ark OF the Law-was sent un.
der heavy escort 10 the Danube, there
20 lead the Turkish hosts to battle for
Allah and his prophet.
