Tn The above sIatement, It IS assumed that
the population was as large in 1874 as in 1878,
which it was not, yet the highest expenditure
whilst the Democrats had control only of the
House, is nine per cent. less than the lowest ex-
penditure under Republican rule; the total
reduction being $ss, 270, 236 AZ or $lO.3s per
voter, which will buy two barrels of -four
for The laboring man.

ADJOURNMENT.

The Democratic Congressional nominating
Convention at Oakland on Tuesday adjourned
10 meet at Rockville on the 18th inst. The
motion was made by Mr. Jno. II. Gassaway,
and opposed by only the three votes from Gar
rett county. There was not ballot taken,
but it was acknowledged at the convention
that Mr.. Peter has sufficient vote from the
different counties TO be nominated on the first
bsllot. The deferment of the nomination it is
said is TO allav all dissatisfaction in the party
Since our last issue there has been scarcely
any abatement in the ravages of the yellow
fever. la New Orleans the number of new
cases seems to be on the increase, whilst the
death roll shows small if any diminution. In
Memphis and the other afflicted cities the con-
dition of affairs is no less gloomy. Little hope
of the disappearance of the scourge for some
time is enteriained, and the appeals for help
are as pitiable as in the beginning. We are
glad that our people have needed these appeals
and hope that their generosity will not stop
where II has begun.

The New York Times, having gone into the
campaign supplement business again, has
provoked the New York World to make some
interesting calculations as to the cost Of the
national government to the individual voter,
which is a very fair and interesting point to
view the subject from. We are tempted very
much 10 copy the whole table and comments
Of the World lest we should do injustice to the
subject, but must content ourself with an alb
sract incomplete as it may be. Taking the
votes cast at the last Presidential election we
may estimate the voters Mt eight millions five
hundred thousand. On this basis and taking
the last three years that the Republicans had
control Of the appropriations, the following
table will show the amounts and the cost per

which the oialions and essays were
