For the Democratic Adsocate.

MEssRs. EDIroRs IL have seen no answer
or solution to the problem published in your
paper Of the 9th instant, to the Professors OF
Western Maryland College, to whom it was
addressed. They seriously have not been
caught with it--for it is nothing more than
" catch " problem. A square containing
ing GA squares will not make IS squares, how.
ever you may cut or divide them, In the
question submitted, il the "square'' is cut,
and put together in the rectangular form, the
joints will not "close" or come together, but
will leave an opening, precisely equal TO one
OF the small squares-try it. IL is only a
catch for boys.
Here is one manufactured "A gentleman

The Electoral Commission.

Lieut.. Governor Dorsheimer, Of New
York, ia card to the New York Sun,
states that it is within his personal know
ledge that Mr. Tilden was not in favor of
the electoral commission. Mr.. Dorsheimer
is an intimate personal and political friend
of Mr. Tilden, and ought to know whereof
he speaks. The New York Sun says -
"Mr. Dorsheimer is good authority for
what he asserts; at the same time, the
chosen leader of the victorious Democratic
hosts in the Presidential election should
not have left it to be first discovered by a
certificate from his Lieutenant at this late
day that he was not in favor of a cunning
device by which the Constitution was
broken through and majority of the peo-
pie and the States cheated out of their
choice. In the great battle against that gi-
gantic wrong, we should have heard at the
fore front the roar Of the lion, and not
merely, when it was all over and forever
lost, and then ut second hand, soft wills.
per of dissent u The Baltimore Gazette
says:-It was not the fault of the advo-
Gates of this plan that the odd member of
the commission happened to be Justice
Bradley. They could not foresee that a
member of the Supreme Bench would sell
his soul as cheaply as Judas Iscariot.
And lamentable as has been the outcome
of the great countiug-in conspiracy, who
can say that it will not prove better in the
end for patient and unrelenting democ-
racy than the result which possibly only
resort to arms and the spiling of fraternal
blood could have brought about? The
mills Of the gods grind slowly, but, as
Judge Black says, they grind dreadful
fine" and 1880 is not so far off that this
defraudcd people need waste any regrets
over what might have been, The Repub-
lican party is already reaping in the Pres
idents betrayal of its practical interests a
terrible reward for its sins, and three years
hence its ghost only viii confront the aven
ger Of March 4, 1877.

The BALTIMORE BAsIN.-We got a
Whit of the mephitic gases of the basin
on Thursday morning, while landing at the
foot of South street, from the good steamer
Maggie. We cannot see how the people
who are compelled to breathe such air can
escape the pestilence through the heated
term Of July and August. 1t must be
very deleterious to health. The Baltimore
papers are mistaken, however, in referring
this stencil solely to the refuse of the su.
gar refneries. Thirty years ago, before
the refueries existed, the stencil of the
basin was almost unbearable. The basin
ought to be filled up down to Jones Falls
where the current from the falls would
sweep the drainage from the city down the
river and into deep water.

R.ttlo. murder and sudden Dealh.

The past decade has been period OF
strange aud awful calamiiios, but no single
wear has witnessed so many rs the one through
which we are now passing. One night las,
fall the sea rose like wall OF water, and
rolled one vast wave over the low lands at
the mouth Of the Bramahputra river, The
whole population, TO the Eumbes OF about
three hundred thousand, persisted IN lew
minutes. A few weeks ago n great earth
quake shudder conyulsed the vertebrn oil
south America-the Andes; whole cities
were tumhled into ruins; the sea recoiied'
LAYING bare its depths, and then returned IN
mountainous wave that swept away seaport
cities like grains of sand. III Illinois lew
weeks ago a cylone came whirling down upon
Mount Carmel and sportiyely tossed around
the public buildings and churches as though
thew were dead leaves, aud leaving many
people dead among their shattered dwellings:
These disasters, the sport Of nature, could
not have been seen nor provided against,
but man has contributed By his negligence,
his ignorance and his folly. Several Ameri
can cities have been laid IN ashes during the
past few years. First Portland, then Chicago,
then Boston, Baltimore. Oshkosh, Galveston,
and now Marblehead is destroyed by fire
while IN the embers Of st. John are still
smouldering. The fearful calamity Of the
Brooklyn.theatre fire, the St. Louis hotel fire,
the breaking down of the Ashte5ula bridge,
aud hundred lesser disasters, have followed
each other with awful swittness. Famine has
rayaged vast aud populous districts OF India.
English rule, English manufactures aud econ
omies have increased the native population
of certain parts of India so that they are now
peopled to the utmost supporting capacity OF
the land. A single scant harvest makes q
scarcity, total failure makes II famine. A
long drought or superintendent rains may
thus destroy more human lives than earth.
quake or tdal.wave. The people starve by
hundreds of thousands. Pestilence has laid
its heavy hand upon us. The yellow-iever at
Savannah and Brunswick last year was Of I'M
precedented fury Battles are now s,rewing
the earth with human corpses in the East,
and none can tell whether or not other great
nations may be drawn into the fray. In this
country We have had sort Of epidemic OF
murder and suicide. During the past few
years they have exceeded in number, in
brutality aud horror those Of former years.
There even exist associations Of banded muir
derers and organizations for the protection
of men whose hands are red with the blood
Of their fellows. All the evils against which
in the LiAny unhappy humanity prnys to
be delivered, seem now in malignant activity
lightning and tempest, plague, pestilence
and famine, battle and murder and sudden
death. -BdAimore Gazette.
