ment Of the college, seem 10 have been rein.
forced officially by the Superintendent Of Pub.
lie Observation-Disclosures NEwnL-who says,
while the institution Is not called on to ignore
The study of ancient and modern languages,
and cannot exclude military tactics, but 1t has
no reason to exist If II docs not do for our sons
something that Is not done at st. Johns or the
Western Maryland Colleges II Is necessity
as an agricultural and mechanical college.
He concludes his criticism by saying that 1t Is
necessity as an agricultural and mechanical
college and conpratuatcs those to whom he
addresses himself, directly and indirectly, that
the board Of trustees seem to be unanimous in
the determination to recall It to its original
purpose.
The pledge thus made in behalf Of the trus-
tees reads like a Judgment pro coVesso that
the institution had beeen guilty of the derelic-
tion charged upon 1t. But at any rate the
people Of the whole country, who are inter
ested as contributors through the aforesaid
1andscript endowment, as well as those Of
Maryland and the friends Of agricultural edu-
cation and progress everywhere, will be graft
fed to read this announcement, and they will
await the fulillnent of Mr.. NEwELL's pledge
with no little interest. We trust there will be
no disappointment.
In well-timed and pertinent words Professor
NEWELL forcibly says the folly that drives our
young men away from thoir country homes
into crowded cities, in the hope Of making a
fortune by gcnteel tape measuring and quill
driving, must be met by holding up the labors
Of the field and tho workshop TO more abundant
honor and that this the agricultural college
should do

TO be sound advice, and Governor RoBN-
SON is not the only Chief Magistrate IN this
great nation who is entitled to . share of
it We have often thought that President
HAYES who occupies the Executive chair
of the nation by the grace and favor of the
Republican party, should not take counsel
OF his enemies in his nominations and
policy"
We coincide in the view that "the men
who elected and stood by him the men who
are the bone and sinew and brain of the
great party to which he belongs; the men
who expect him to act on principle and keep
his head above the petty prejudices and per-
sonalities of small politicians, certainly are
entitled to his confidence" This admoni-
tion applies with equal force to a Republic
can President rs it does to Democratic
Governor, and we would most respectfully
call his attention to IT, The great mistake,
In the opinion of the masses of the Repub-
lican party, that the President has
made since his Inauguration, is
that he has taken counsel of his enemies
IA mo hohiihuttohs hiiu pOiitys III coulh
Carolina, the great and good man, WADE
HAMPTON" has been preferred as counselor
in nominations and policy relating to that
State, to CHAMBERLAIN, CoRBIN, and Others,
who elected him. So also as TO Georgia. ALEX
ANDER II. STEPHENS and Senators Hill.
and GORDON have been taken as counsel
ors as to nominations and policy in prefer
ence to the men who supported him. In Mis-.
sissippi, LAMAR has superseded Republican
counselOrs as to nominations and policy. So
also, In Louisiana, the men who helped to
elect the President have been rejected as
counselors, and the followers of NICHOLS
have had a say.
1t Is this line Of policy that has disap-
pointed and disheartened the great body Of
the Republican party North and South, and
which has given courage and hope to the
Democrats throughout the country. And
we have often thought that if the President
has determined to sacrifice himself hi
should wait till he gets of the door step'
before committing hari kari"

SOME curious revelations are occasionally
made in the Treasury Department, Not
long since gentleman in looking over the
files found that very prominent firm OF
steamboat men in one of the Western cities
had received several years ago nearly one
hundred thousand dollars for some boats
not worth over one-tenth of that sum
These steamboat men are very wealthy and
religious, and it will be shock to the com.
munity in which they live to learn that
proceedings have been commenced by the
United States Government to recover
moneys from these men out of which the
Government was swindlcd years ago

The Effect of Contraction.

1t may not be uninteresting to those
journals which contend that there is plenty
of circulating medium now for the wants of
business, to consider with fair spirit of
candor the effect that contraction has had
upon the monetary condition of the country.
Its story is told as follows, after considering
the fact that in 1854 the amount of paper
money issues outstanding, consisting Of
greenbacks, postal currency, Treasury notes.
certificates of Indebtedness, national-bank
notes, State bank notes, seven-thirty notes,
temporary deposits for which certificates
were issued, was 81, lbs, ,S77 ,O34.53 The
per capita diminution is rs follows

Political Advice.

The New York E1PrrsS n thorough par
tisan journal of the Democratic persuasion,
tenders the following advice to Governor
ROBINSON in regard to who should and who
should not be entertained rs advisers;
Governor RoBINsON should not take coun.
sci of his enemies in his nominations and
policy. The men who elected and have stood
by him; the men who are the bone and sincw
and brain of the great party to which he he
longs; the men who expect him to act on prn-
Giple and keep his head above the petty preu-
diccs and personalities Of small politicians, Ger.
tainly are entitled to his confidence. II ho Is
determined to sacrifice himself, he should wait
I'LL he gets on the doOrstcps before commit
ting har-kari.
In party point of view this would seem
National Republican., 1878-01-23
lpitd diminution is rs follows:

We yesterday called attention to the fact
that the per capita amount of circulating
medium had reached the lowest point in
briefly the result of this contraction. In
1864 there were but $50 failures in the
country, with aggregate liabilities of only
-, SO, 900, while during the first six months
of the year ls71 the number of failures was
4,7i9, with an Indebtedness of SOS,6O6, III.
So much for contraction. How long can
the country stand itY The ratio is fearful
and the consequences most terrible. Ruin
to every interest is inevitable, if continued.

SENATOR BECK has been somewhat an
