the party now dominant in the State-a
cry for spols. Let the suggestion Of
economy and rctrenchment come from
what source it may, it is hootcd down as
weak device of the enemy. The Peo-
pie of Cecil county are mercilessly de
spoiled every year by the reckless expen-
diture of the public moneys. AS We have
recently shown. more than II per cent of
the aggregate taxes collected for local
purposes are consumed in their collection
alone. We have road system in the
enough III itself, but
mercilessly prostituted by the local poll
tcians of the county. We have an aims
house Ring, every article Of which pur-
chased on county account must pay some
tribute to the gentlemen i'll office. How
long this State Of things will continue,
depends solely upon the people them
selves. In their hands lies the remedy.
But one thing they may be sure. the
Democratic leaders will never voluntarily
relinquish their grasp of the public purse.

GOLD COMING TO AMERICA.

That possession which is believed in
dispensable to remarkable national pros
pcrity, the balance of trade, is unmis-
takablv in the hands of the United States.
For many years we bought of other na-
tons more than we sold to them, and
gold has flowed across the Atlantic to
balance our accounts. At length point
was reached where our purchases were
lust about equal to our exports. and a
little later We were selling more than we
bought. and now We are able to review
the transactions of considerable time
with much satisfaction, because our ez-
ports have been increasingly in excess of
our imports. To-day there is atloat upon
the Atlantic $1,000, 900 or more Of gold,
which is coming to the United States.
On Saturday last Il, 000,0 600 in gold was
received from abroad. 1t is an interest
ing study to watch the movement OF gold
as it floats about in the world, and esti-
mate the causes by which the movement
from country to country is produced.
Speculation has something to do with
that movement at times. The demand
for our bonds sent froln SIS, 900. 600 to 20, :
900, 900 i'll gold to the United States about
the year 1873. Legitimate Investments
in various securities. aside from the ordi-
nary transactions of commerce. are one
cause of the international movement of
the precious metal. But the balance of
trade between two nations is exactly
measured by the shipments Of gold. when
there is 10 speculation and no investment
in the securities of either nation by citi-
zens of the other. The gold which has
been coming, and which is likly to con-
tinue to come. from Europe to the United
States is ali indication that VIC are grow
ing rich, that we are buying less than we
sell, and that our industries are III Il
healthful condition. While we hold the
balance of trade, gold must continue to
come from Europe, and our prosperity
must increase.

ABOUT GRATUITOUS COUNSEL

To break the force of our advocacy of
the abolition of the unnecessary office of
District Tax Collector, and the substitu-
ton in its stead of the office Of County
Treasurer, to be made elective by the peo-
pie. thereby annually saving thousands
of dollars to the taxpayers of the coun-
ty, our contemporary of The Cecil Demo-
crat charges the paternity and maintain
ance of the present cumbrous and ex-
pensive system upon the Republicans.
Could any thing be more sublimely ridicu-
lous. But conccding that the Radicals,
while in power in the county, did not
allow relationship of taxes to go beg
ging. wherein is that fact pertinent to
the issue9 The present system, for which
10 one political party is responsible, is
old fogyish, out of date, and not to be
tolerated, and we ought to treat it as the
editor of The Cecil Democrat did his dad
dy's name-change it.
