THE GAZETTE FOR 1879.

THE BALTIMORE GAZETTE is q dali
Newspaper which appeals to the public
solely on its merits as journal OF the
day. 1t is compendium of news at home
and abroad, each event being written, pre-,
pared and edited according to its relative
Importance Not line appears in THE
GAZETTE which is not useful or instruct
i've. 1t essays to give the news in nut
shell at a price in keeping with the
economical demands of the times.
THE GAZETTE has opinions and it ex-
presses them daily in terse and pointed
English. 1t is thoroughly Democratic in
IT'S teachings and tendencies, but independ-
ent of all corrupt rings, cliques or factious
Oligarchies THE GAZETTE believes that
the principles of the Democratic party
should prevail To that end it will labor
to place the Democratic party in power
and thereby bring about much needed
change in the administration of the Gov
eminent In Municipal, State and Ma
tional politics THE GAZETTE will lend its
aid to the representatives of Democratic
principles. A great struggle for political
mastery is coming on. In 1880 another
battle for the Presidency will be fought.
The Importance of such newspaper as
THE GAZETTE in educating, organizing
and preparing the people for this contest
cannot be over-estimated The News,
Editorial and Local features of THE GA
zETTE will be thoroughly maintained anc
improved during the year. The depart
ment of Foreign Correspondence has al
tanned standard unequaled in Baltimore
journalism, and as whole there Is no
daily journal in the country which con-
tains SO many popular features furnished
at such popular prices,
THE BALTIMORE WEEKLY GAZETTE Is
a folio journal, same size as the Daily,
which contains every week an epitome of
Home and Foreign News, Charmin
Stories, Entertaining Miscellany, Complete
Market Reports, Correspondence, Editor
ials and Family Reading, all selected with

nisted at So per gear to mail subscribers,

at 10 cents per sosek and is sold IN single

year to add thousands of names to our
lists in Baltimore and contiguous sections
All letters and inquiries in regard to sub
scriptions or matters of business should be

An Astonishing Fact

An Astonishing Fact.-A large
proportion of the American people are to-
day d ,ing from the effects of Dyspepsia or
disordered liver. The result of these dis
eases upon the masses of intelligent and
valuable people is most alarming, making
life actually a burden instead of pleasant
existence of enjoyment and usefulness as
it ought to be. There is no good reason
for this, if you will only throw aside pre-
iudice and skepticism, take the advice of
Druggists and your friends, and try one
bottle of Green's August Flower. Your
speedy relief is certain. Millions of bot
ties of this medicine have been given away
to try its virtues, with satisfactory results
in every case You can buy sample bot
tie for ten cents to try. Three doses will
reliev. the worst case. Positively sold by
all Druggists on the Western Continent.

Two ScHooLs.-Inciden tally we
dropped into two public sch ools this
week-the Sand Spring and Borden
Mine.
The first, taught by Mr.. T. G., Ma
son, was found to be somewhat de-
plcted by the near approach of the
term. But the morale, appeara oce,
decorum and proficiency, of the t,air-
ty or forty pupils remaining were up
to the mark, and evidenced Mr.. Ma
son as a careful, industrious, comloe-
tent teacher.
At Borden mine the school was al
so comparatively small for similar
reason. The edifce here is new, and
one of the brightest and cleanest we
have seen. The pupils are orderly
and evidently fond of their amiable
and accomplished teacher, Miss Belle
M. Staples. We heard several oral
recitations, in which the answers
were prompt and correct, as also those
rendered in writing.
Altogether, we are persuaded that
our schools are we'll conducted, and
that the teachers are not getting too
much money for their work.

THE LEeIsLArURE adjourned sine d

THE LEGISLATURE adjourned sine die
on Saturday, at 8 o'clock. 1t is very
much to be regretted that the chief eco
nomical measure, the conversion of the
STATE bonds from 81 per cent. to ~ per
cent. debt, was defeated at last. Had
this act got through the Senate we are
quite certain the debt could have been
safely converted in three months time,
and thereby the State would have saved
at least one hundred thousand dollars in
ten years. Senators Sbarpley and Cooch
deserve great praise for the efforts they
made to get the bill through the Senate.
1t is a mistake TO suppose our State debt
is a light one. 1t is quite heavy debt
for our little State, and those who say il
will soon be paid are the most likely
people to be mistaken. 1t will take
twenty years at the present rate of taxa
ton 10 pay It.
