Now then for our opinion, Fluke,
about this cruel war. If the Russian
forces al only gain possession of
Tzyulzaveni, they will have Tschuma-
kowdza at their mercy, do you see?
Well, then the inhabitants of Turun
Swerinn and Sardameschti will be
forced to flee to Dobroslantoschna or
Tschitatia for protection. Ahem! But
in case Dokhuzaghatsch should fall,
there will be no resource for the Turks,
who, by the by, are infdels, sir, except
to fall back and fortify Bojukdesbend,
Menekscheler, Damfno, Eski, Djnma
and the fastness of Tschallukawogh.
Now, if you don't believe it, ask any Of
our army officers, and you will hear
them pronounce this to be the very
acme of profound military knowledge.

True Merit will Win.

A few years since the proprietors
of DR.. Morris Syrup of Tar, Wild

become the most staple and popular
pulmonary remedy in the market.

colds, Group, bronchitis, asthma and
incipient consumption. Nothing
acts so nicely in whoopIug cough,
and it is so pleasant that children
readily take it. Containing no opium
or other dangerous drug, it is as safe
as it is sure. Trial size, 10 cts; large
sizes, 50 cts. and One Dollar. Sold

FREDERICK COUNTY COAL MINE
The Catoctin (Md.) Clarion says
that the coal mine recently discover
ed near Motter's Station, Frederick
county, is really amounting to some
thing, and coal in large quantities is
being taken from it. Crowds of per-
sons have visited it since the dis.
covery, and all are of the opinion
that the "dusky diamonds" abound
there in large quantities.. 1t will also
cause others to make an examination
of their land, and probably bring to
light some richer minerals which
must abound in this region so close
to the mountains.

EVANSVILLE, Md. Nov. II, 1877.
ED. REPUBLICAN:-T election
passed off very quietly at this place.
There was considerable cutting done
by the Democrats, but the Republi-
cans generally voted their ticket
straight" There was but little in
terest manifested by the Democrats
here, and consequently the Repub-
licans had an easy victory in this
district. The result in the county is
about what was anticipated here.
Nevertheless the actions of some of
our Oakland Republicans, who we
think acted in rather bad faith, but
fortunately injured no body but
themselves. They may rest assured
that e will not forget them, and if
we gave. them good officers once, it is
not saying that we will repeat the
dose.
But we will turn to matters of
more general interest. While out
through the country few days ago,
we CHANGED to call on Mr.. Jacob
Fresh, one of our enterprising far
mers of New Germany, and had the
pleasure Of looking over his farm and
examining some of the improve
ments, among which is a cave just
pleted. Mr.. F. being a stone ma
son by trade, took the time and pains
to make this the most complete affair
of the kind we have ever seen. The
cave we judge to be about 14x20,
built of solid split stone and nicely
arched, with trap doors in the top
and slides from them to all parts Of
the cave, thereby saving the labor OF
carrying anything through the door.
The cave just now is well stored with
potatoes, apples, &C., &c, There are
three fine orchards on the farm,
besides a nice selection of small fruits
around his dwelling. He is prepar.
ing to go into lining extensively in
the spring, which is all he needs tC
make his one of the finest farms in
our District.

Col. E. G. Tillson, of Deer Park, a
serenade. The band was introduced
by S. w. Friend, ST., who said that
they called upon the Colonel to pay
their respects and to congratulate
him dpoh his election; that while he
had not sought the Office and had not
done any electioneering, he YVES con-
ident that in accepting the position
he would be commissioner of no sim
gle district or section, but of the en-
tire county. Col. Tillson responding
said, that he thanked the band for
their excellent music and their sere-
made: that while he had not sought
the office, while there had been no
wire pulling at primary meetings nor
political chicauery in conventions,
he accepted the nomination as he
now accepted the verdict which his
fellow-citizens had just pronounced
at the ballot box, resolving to do his
whole duty for the county of Garrett.
He knew that the finances of the
county were in very low conditions;
that while we could not expect pros
perity's sun to dart its meridian rays
upon us in moment, he hoped that
when the next Board of Commission
ers retired from Office they would
leayea report behind them which
would be satisfactory to the overbur-
dened taxpayers of Garrett. He
knew the present Board had done
the best they knew; the best they
could. Heidi not think it necessary
for him to make lengthy speech, as
all were familiar with the affairs of
the county, and he would not keep
them in the cold any longer, but in
vite them in to share his hospitality !;
that while there was a shot in the
locker thew were welcome to it.
After partaking of the bountiouS
repast which had been prepared for
theru, they wished the Colonel sue
cess in his political career, played
"Hold the Fort" babe him good
night and then marched away, leav-
ing all we'll satisfied with the sere-
made and hoping that the Colonel
might "Hold the Fort' for sometime
to come.
After leaving Col. Tillson's, the
Band rendered a serenade to Mr..
Ryan, who has just returned from
the West.

DEMANDS FOR LOCAL OPTION. -
AT the election in Maryland Oh, the
9th inst. Local option was carried
IN Kent county by vote of l ,473 for
and ,073 against it. The vote was
taken as test and voluntary on the
part Of the people, to show the
Legislature that Kent county wanted
local option. The majority in favor
Of it is 400 in the county. Ina num-
Der of the counties of the Eastern
Shore local option to prohibit the
sale of liquor prevails, and the effect,
on the community has been so good
that it is evidently spreading. The
voice Of Kent county is unmistakable
and in Cecil county also a similar test
in the sixth district resulted as fol-
lows: For local option 267, a. ainst IL
4. The Cecil Democrat says that the
matter was not generally known or
understood, otherwise the vote would
have been larger /; for at least three
fourths of the voters in the district
are in favor of local option.

SHADES OF DEEP CREEK,
--- Nov. 18th. 1877.

Nov. 18th, 1877.
Mr.. EDITOR AS you have so of
ten solicited communications from
the rural districts / venture to send q
line or two for publication, if you
should deem my modest letter wor-
thy to appear in the columns of your
valuable paper. Permit me to say,
however. that shall not feel hurt if
your editorial judgement should
consign my production to the waste
basket.
the Republicans of this neighbor-
hood are very much elated over the
result of the election in this county.
L think they have abundant reason
to rejoice, for this is the first time in
the history of Garrett county that
one political party has elected its
entire ticket save one. At all the
elections heretofore held in the cOun-
ty, for county officers, there were
local questions and sectional Difficult
ties which led many voters in both
parties to vote against men of their
own party. Those elections have re-
suited in the selection of a number
of officials from both political parties.
In the election which has Just pas sed
no such difficulties as those above re-
ferred to interpOSed, and the contest
was simply between Democrats and
Republicans, and we rejoice that the
result was in favor of the latter, and
that one more has been added to the
list of republican counties in our
grand old State. We have done well,
but it remains to be determined
whether we shall profit by the great
victory we have gained or not. If
those whom we have elected to Of
fees OF honor, profit and trust shall
demean themselves properly III all
their official ACES, then will our vic
tory be complete; but if they should
fail in this particular, then will our
victory be but temporary and defeat,
disastrous and overwhelming, will
await us. Let those of our officers
elect who have patronage at their
disposal, bestow this patronage upon
Republicans. This our opponents
expect. This our friends demand.
But in so doing let them be sure that
the individual upon whom they con-
fer their patronage is honest, capable,
efficient. Let them appoint no man
to position simply because he is Re-
publican, but in addition to that let
them see that he has the qualifica-
tions which fit him for the office to
which he aspires. Although they
have been elected by Republicans,
they should not lose sight of the fact
that they are public servants-that
they are the officers of the whole peO-
ple-and not the officers of political
party. If those whom we have cleo
ted to official position will rise above
mere partisanship and administer
the affairs of their respective offices
with an eve single to the public well
fare and the good of the whole peo-
pie, our victory will not only be
complete but permanent in its re-
suits, and in the next election the
people will say under their verdict at
the ballot box, "well done, good and
faithful servants"

In Grafton last week, says the
Sentinel, John Goodnoe notified
Jacob Giles that he disapproved his
excepting company" with young
lady relative ofGoodnoe's, to which
admonition Giles paid no attention.
Later Goodnoe saw the pair together
and followed them, when he was
warned off by Giles. who, when the
warning was unheeded, drew a
revolver and shot Goodnoe in the
thigh. Giles was arrested and fined
IS and costs "for carrying concealed
