MILITARY PREPARATIONS.

LONDON, March 16.-There is less excite
ment at the government works at Woolwich,
than some weeks ago, but still there is no
abatement of the energy or demonstration of
work. Nearly all hands work until 8, 8 or
10 at night, instead of the usual closing
hour.
In consequence of the want of officers for
the army, the cadets Who entered Sandhurst
last summer and whose period of probation
would expire in July in ordinary circum-
stances, will be passed out next month.
Those who entered at the beginning of the
year and would complete their course in
December, will be passed out and commits
stoned in July. A large number of COM
missions in the line will also be available for
militia subalterns the present year.
DEPRESSION IN SPAIN
MADRID, March 16.-The most of the
papers discuss the causes of the crisis in the
manufacturing districts in Catalonia and in
the commercial centres on the Mediterranean
coast, where numerous failures have taken
place. One hundred and nineteen factories
have been closed and nine thousand work
men thrown out of employment. The min
isterial papers advocate the policy Of entering
into commercial treaties of reciprocity, and
to open new markets, as the best remedy for
the crisis.

description. Our attention was next drawn
TO the operation of the energy wheels These
are Of different sizes and are used for remov-
lug discrepancies upon cylindrical castings, aud
many other purposes, and are composed of
compressed energy, material which in its
form of fine powder is used for polishing met
ais. The operation or action of the energy
wheel is very fascinating to the eye. A large
cylinder or roller, weighing 3 900 pounds had
been cast for the Baltimore Lead Works and
vas under the finishing process. It was, placed
in large lathe and whilst rotating slowly.
the energy wheel, running by a pulley and
belt was adjusted so as 10 rotate against the
roller with great velocity in opposite drec-
lions, and by the attachment of a spiral
device at the same time to move very
gradually from one end to the other of the
roller which IS about eight feet long. 1t is a
most beautiful operation, and it is made abso-
lu,ely dazzling TO the eye BY continuous
stream Of electric scinillatfons extending
about eight inches below the wheel
Mr.. Ashton Ramsay, the senior partner in
the Vulcan Works, besides being thorough
business man, is gentleman Of the most pol
ished address and agreeable manners, and we
feel constrained 10 express our gratitude 10
both gentlemen for their kindness to US during
our visit TO the Vulcan iron Works.
There are many wonderful tools in these
works that are worthy of special mention and
particular description, but the length of our
communication warns us TO lay down the pen.

NR. H4YEs.

Will Justice be eventually cheated of its
victim By the pardon OF Anderson? Will this
country at last behold the day in time Of
peace when the laws of the people, made for
their protection, can be openly defied and vio-
lated by political bargain? Have the people
become so subseryient to political supremacy
that they are willing to bow their heads in
peaceful acquiescence to every overthrow Of
law, which is perpetrated by public offirias to
rescue and shelter the crimir al tools who
hoisted them into their position of power7 Are
they willing 10 behold those laws made by
their hands as fertilization scorned and de-
rided as mockery and battered down BY Of
ficers who were created to protect them? IT
these things are permissible, to what port Of
despotism is our government drifting? But a
few short months ago an earthquake of revo-
luton shook the foundations Of our constiu-
tional liberty, when by an unparalleled act of
usurpation an uneected candidate grasped and
held the presidential office. Now he is openly
urged by his political advisers 10 frown def
ance at law and stretch out the hand of des-
potic interference for the salvation ofcriminals
convicted of assisting in the coHsummation of
OF that outrage upon law Of which he himself
is the beneficiary. win he do it We believe
when he sees every other hope to which An
derson cings waited irreirievably beyon bis
grasp, that then Hayes will use the influence OF
his ostensible power TO sever the rivets of those
manacles which Justice has fastened upon him.
He has cheated our people TOO long with his
mockery Of fidelity to the Constitution the
mask with which he has covered up his hypoc-
risy is made of material transparent enough
for the people to see through if they will
bat open their eyes and look. Scarcely
had he breathed The air of security within the
politically ventilated halls of the White House
than he trampled under foot every expressed
and implied pledge that he had made to his
party when il nominated him for President
If he considered them extortcd pledges TO per-
form illegal acts and never intended to keep
them, an honorable man, such rs he would
have the country believe him to be, would
never have bid for the presidency by making
them. By making them and failing to keep
them he proved himself a traitor and a liar
and Democrats, when il is necessary to sub
serve his ENDS, and the hour is near at hand,
he will desert you with the same reasonable
Tack not your faith TO his honor; it is a
cloak he can as readily change as any other
garment he wears.

Idle Wanderings.

BALTIMORE, February rs, 1878.
Upon the conclusion of our observations of
the telephone, our wanderings were guided 10
the south side of the basin by the prominence
Of the far-famed headand known as "Federal
Hill" Observing upon its summit the build
ings and Gags of signal station, it was sug-
gested 10 our mind that the point probably af-
forded desirable view Of the surrou nding OBJ
jects of interest, whereupon we grappled with
the ascent, and after considerable expenditure
OF breath and many doubts as to the utility of
our exertions we reached the broad station at
the top of the Hill. Here we found anticipa-
lions more than realized, for more diversified
and NJ the same time harmonious view could
not have been presented 10 the visi n OF
course, the scene embraced too many objects to
justify any minute description, aud our only
object IN mentioning 1t is that the suggestion
may be guide to future wanderers through
the city rost famous for lovely women and
white marble. Our attention, however, could
not escape the Wilderness that lay before us by
sound aud sight tina; were in a busy district;
ana as we have within us a strong fancy for
machinery and love to watch the rapid ro,s-
ton OF the Journal in its oily bed, we were led
to seek the qualification OF our impulse by a
stroll among these busy scenes.
AT the corner ofllughes and William streets
our attention was attracted 10 large brick
pie, over the the main portal of which we
read the euphouious name Vulcan Iron
| Works, and below it, as il 10 verify the
sign, huge gilded arm with hammer clasped
| tightly in the hand aud bent as if about TO
strike, protruded as from within the works.
These works are among the Oldest most pop
ular and largest ofihe industrial institutions
OF Maryland, and under the control of their
present management promise to lead career OF
unprecedented prosperity. As we wandered
through these isles Of machinery we were APP
preached by Mr.. G. II. Latrobe, the Junior
partner OF the 6rm, who kindly offered to di-
rect our attention to the most interesting OBJ
jects OF The works. We visited the pattern
shop, boiler works, foundry, forging shop,
machine shop, brass foundry, and drauRht Of
nee, all working as integral parts of one great
power for the production of any given struc-
ture OF metal from the foot-brdge across gut
ter to steamship OF five thousand tons burden.
We were deeply interested by the scenes in the
foundry Of this establishment; the men nov
ing aooul rom one mould to another with
mud-lined iron hods, supported upon long
iron bars, carrying the molten metal and pre-
senting truly weird aspect in the lurid glare
reflected by the liquid, red iron. The compo-
sure OF the foreman in the helish atmosphere,
ana the lance-like precision Of the man who
standing ready by the cupola pushed lump
OF clay through the little Aperture through
which had sreamed the liquid iron, with a
long, wooden rod All this is truly worth
seeing aud is well entitled to a more graphic

NEGRO LdWYERS.

We are sorry TO see that the House. of Dele
gates of our Legislature has passed the bill for
admission of negro attorneys TO the Bar of
this State. II it becomes a law il will be a
disgrace and base insult 10 the legal profess
sion. The Bar of Maryland has been proven
bal throughout this country for its pre-eminent
ability and for its superlaiive dignity, honor
and courtesy. In the biographical history of
our conntrys lawyers, the leading members
Of Maryand's bar stand without peers, but
now the doors are to be opened for the admis-
sion of a class to whom law would be an inn
penetrable mystery, and TO whom honor,
dignity and courtesy are as foreign as bar
barism is to civilization. To those topping
heights where the acme OF human wisdom has
planted lis standard in the vast architectural
design of law no negro can ever climb. The
genius and wisdom of ages have been busy in
its completion, and the thick skull of the negro
is totally inadequate to appreciate the scien-
tific principles upon which 1t is constructed.
II would take him a lifetime TO understand
upon what principle the first stone of the
foundation was laid He would be lawyer
not understanding the fudiments of his pro-
fession, never learning the rules Of its practice,
and liable TO sustain defeat in every legal
contest. True he would have no clients ex-
eep; those from his own race, but they would
all with their natural inclination cling to-
getber, give him business, and them through
his inability TO attend TO il, be cheated of that
success which law and justice, If it had been
have demanded for Them. Is it right to delude
this poor race by making them think by the
admission of one of their number TO the Bar
that he is capable of attending TO their bust
ness and tempt them. through their love of
their color, to place their legal matters in his
bands and eventually be defeated with loss Of
money, property and life and liberty. But
this is not all. Frequentlr upon the witness
stand would be ladies and gentlemen for eX-
animation who would be compelled to submit
10 his discourcous aud imperlnen interroga-
tories. Feeling the importance of station to
which he had been suddenly exalted his over
bearing and insulting manner TO them would
be unbearable In the progressive City oil
Washington, where negroes practice. we heard
one of them say 70 IA white witness "Now see
here stop that lying end tell the truth"
Think Of it, ladies and gentlemen of this
county and State, you who may be called
upon any day ms witness, think of being
Subjected to such an insult from negro.

Hug parties are the latest social novelties
in Williamsport. They are said to be very
popular with the young people of both sexes.
Edward Johnson, school-teacher at Bol-
var post Office, Frederick county, recently did
something to displease his boy scholars, when
they seized him and gave him a severe drub-
bling.
The peninsular peach growers prognosticate
bad season for fruit Tae buds are already
swelling under the present spring-like weather
and should spell OF freezing weather occur
the crop will be entirely destroyed.
The supposition that two men we're drowned
in an attempt to cross the Monocacy at Bigg's
ford, on the l4th instant, in II buggy, proves
to be well founded. The remains of Joseph
Storm, one of the men missing, were found in
the stream on Thursday about half mile
above the Pennsylvania railroad bridge. The
body was taken to Emmittsburg, where his
father resides. Nothing has been discovered
with regard to the man named Knott who
was with Storm when they hired the buggy at
Emmittsburg, which was afterwards found
abandoned at the ford.

She is not dead, but sleepth,
Not lost. but gone before;
Our loving mother liveth,
Yes, liveh evermore.
To the bosom of her Saviour
She was borne by angel hands,
By faith SHE saw her Saviour
With wide entended hands.
He was waiting at the river side
To welcome her across,
And safely did she stem the tide
While clinging to the cross.
But may we meet thee, mother,
Where kindred part no more,
Aud journey with thee hand 10 hand
Along the spirit shore.
For that sweet day we're waiting,
When death shall set US free,
We'll spring TO meet each other
Beyond life's troubled sea.
