HENR Y AND EDISON.

After long and useful life Prof Henry of
the Smithsonian Institute in Washington died
on Monday, having attained more than man 8
three score and ten. His diligent labor In the
labratory Of Science has deduced from the
mystic powers and forces of nature only such
agencies as must rebound to the advantage and
progress of his race. AT the time of bis dea h
he-stood ut the head Of that learned and able
class Of men who spend their lives in investi-
eating the works of nature for the elevation of
mankind, and as he rounded his eighty years
Of usefulness another sprang up in his place,
whose wonderful inventions give earnest for
the grandest attachments of human genius in
the future. Thos. A. Edison is to-day the
central figure in scientific circles Only thirty
one years Of age he has placed upon record
one hundred and fifty patents-all upon the
management of electricity.
His telephone is now in general use. and
his photograph, which he is now perfeciing,
Ne anticipates will be in great demand among
business men who have large correspondence
man may read his mail and as be reads
speak his replies to each letter at once into
the phonograph, which will work at Sc, speed
by a clock arrangement. When all is done /,
will be turned over to clerk, who setting the
clock work to 60 more slowly, win copy from
lis dictatios II Is also suggested tina, skilled
readers will be employed to read novels and
other works into the phonograph, and the i'm.
pressions being duplicated cheaply and made
permanent, may be sold for the use of the
blind or those who wish 10 spare their ewes
and for whom the photograph will read aloud
at the Preside
His aerophone is an instrument intended to
increase very greatly the volume Of the hu-
man voice. IL Is more ingenious than the
photograph. In a steam whistle or an organ
pipe delicate valve is placed controlling the
supply OF steam OF air. This valve is con-
nected With diaphragm similar to that used
10 the photograph and telephone, and the
vibrations Of the diaphragm cause movements
In the valve, which opens and closes 10 exact
accordance with the vibrations Of the human
voice communicated to the diaphragm, throws
the steam or air into similar vibrations, and
thus rsproduces ihs words spoken.
These are the three insentions that sre now
attracting the wonder and admiration of the
wo.ld.
With such evidences as these before us, we
eau not compute what daring and miraculous
works may hash upon Us in few more years.

MEpLEY's DIsrRlor. Nav latb

MEDLEYs DISTRICT, May 18th, 1878.
Mr.. Editor IL was surprised to see that
you thought my little note of last week, if
published, might cause detection in our
ranks. That would be an impossibility. We
may differ in whom we wish to be our standard
bearer or where he ought 10 hail from. But
when the unterriied Democracy of the Sixth
Congressional District meets 10 conventio and
proclaims to The people their choice, without a
doubt, he will be supported by the unfinch-
ing Democracy Of this county, for we are
said to be like flock OF partrdgss. We NAV
stray away little in looking for an available
candidate, but always come to the old nest to
roost, for we know no man against the sue
cessful election of the nominee. But we think
with you that this county ought to be allowed
the honor Of naming the next standard bearer.
II would be no more than what we have earned
in contests gone by but il is an old saving
that Past favors are soon forgotten" Why
all this hubbub about A or BIT why not trot
out all of our nags aud let them 90 before
the convention with the votes they may get al

this county cannot decide on whom they want
and II is decided to give us the big rooster let
them all go before the Congressional conven-
ton and let the one who gets the nomination
be the man we have all been looking for.

About ten and a-half o'clock on Saturday
night in Frederick an ARRAY occurred on one of
the most prominent thoroughfares of the city
between two colored men, named Warren
Stanton and Dennis Davis, which resulted in
the stabbing and almost instant death of the
latter. The facts CLEANED are as follows !:
Davis whilst standing ia the doorway of Mr..
Schollss store, saw little girl looking in the
window. He inquired what she was looking
at, and was answered that it was none of bis
business. He uttered an exclamation of some
kind, when Stanton, the father of the girl, re-
Joined that she had said nothing to him. An
alteration ensued, during which it is alleged,
Davis struck Stanton with wrench The
parties then separated. Stanton went home
and was advised by his wife TO have Davis ar
rested. mo" he replied, "I'll fix it," and
taking Barlow knife he started gu followed
by his wife, who carried a cane. Upon see
ing Davis the woman cried out, ''You struck
my husband, now ri strike you" The al
tercation being resumed, Stanton came up and
stabbed Davis in the neck, severing the jugu-
lar vein and inflictng fearful wound from
which the blood flowed profusely. The vic
tim writhed for moment or two, then fell
and expired. Notwithstanding the late hour
great crowd gathered at the scene and in
tense excitement prevailed. Davis was from
the country, bore good character and was
twenty-four years old. Stanton is sixty. He
has been lodged in Jail.

A VOICE FROM FREDERICK.
The Home Guard Editor and our
Congressional Nominee.
FREDERICK, ND, Nav 18th. ;s'

FREDERICK, MD, May 10Th, 1878.
Mr.. Editor 1T will no doubt be surpris-
ing to you to see part Of your editorial of
Friday last taken as text by the Editor of
the Union of this city, for the purpose of
venting petty spite against the "Kernel" of
the Governors staff. 1t is not half so sur
prisng, nor matter of half as much won
derment TO us here, as to wonder whether the
Editor OF the Union and some more of his
class of rule or ruin Democrats ever voted for
John Lee Carroll for Governor, or for the
"Kernell," either, when on the delegate ticket
last Fall. And we wonder TOO whether fight
ing for the loaves and fishes of the printing,
as against the Kernel has not something 10
do with his luminosity towards that gentle
men. Calling the "Kernel'' hired lobbyist
does well enough in his a0dy, but falls harm
less among the many thousands OF the "Ker-
ne's' friends who know that he never re-
ceived cent for lobbying any bill through
the Legislature, nor eUer received cent from
the corporation or county of Frederick for
printing, mat he Was not justly entitled 10.
We Democrats who have TO stand the brunt
OF the political contests here do not want to
see purely local matters dragged into a ma
tional contest, where the stake is as deep as the
election of Representative from the Sixth
Congressional district, and are willing to ac-
cord old Montgomery county very large say
in that test. OF course we do not wonder
at the valiant Editor of the Union having a
lurking animosity against Mr.. Peter or ann
citizen Of Montgomery county who happened a
few years ago to be fighting in the ranks with
those who were struggling to maintain consti-
tutional government, while this valiant Edi-
tor in the ranks of the Home Guards with his
shining musket was hunting rope to hang all
the rebels. We will tell you this, Mr.. Editor
that Col. Baughman can do more service in
one hour in the election of the Democratic
nominee for Congress, whoever he may be-
than this brave Home Guard Editor has ever
dore in the whole course of his political Ca
reer. TRUE DEMOCRAT
