LETTER FROM BALTIMORE.
DMrIaonE. Janaarr p. ls1g

Baltimore, January %, 1879.
wish toSnote the approach Of two impor-
tant events that will bring the popular enter.
tainment season to It's height here, namely,
the beginning, on next Saturday evening, OF
the regular annual series Of grand orches.
trail concerts at the Peabody Institute, and
disappearance ofthe Mapleson Opera Troupe.
These instrumental concerts at the Peabody
are OF very high character, and are a rich
treat TO oil among US who appreciate artistic
rendering of the works OF the great compos.
ers. Nine. Nannette Falk Anerback, the pi.
anist, and that charming soprano, Miss Jennie
Busk, together with the members OF the Lie
derkranz, a fine German singing society, and
others, will greatly add to the attraciiveness
Of the entertainments.
As to the Mapleson Troupe, | hardly need
remind your observing readers tina. It is one
ofrare excellence, not being composed of one
great luminary with few unimportant satei.
lites, but is real constellation. Among the
names may be mentioned Gerster, Minnie
Hank, Marie Roze, Campanini, and Foil.
Gerster is a cdatdtriee who has excited in New
York an enthusiasm that reminds one OF the
best days Of Jenny Lind; and It should be
considered that in this country musical art
has much wider and more thorough apprecia'
ton in these days
Minnie Hauk, too, has many admirers, but
not little Of her fame has been won by her
petulant manner toward Col. Mapeson, the
distinguished English impresdrio truly pity

MI. Tildens candidacy in 1880 is pro-
babe, We think, if the argument Of his
friends DO conceded They tell the couu-
try that New York is necessary to insure
the election Of Democrat, and that no
Democrat can be elected without the 30
electoral votes Of that State. That no
candidate outside Of New York can carry
that State, and no other candidate in New
York is as likely to carryit as Mr., Tilden.
An th.s conceded, ii follows. as matter
Of course, that if the Democrats mean to
carry the Presidency at Che next quadren-
nial trial, they must renomiDate Mr. TIL
den. With his candidacy and election
assured, can the Democratic party have
any sufficient guaranty that he and the
party leaders win take such steps as viii
insure his induction into the Office, and
likewise insure the punishment Of any man
or set Of men who should by fraudulent
Returning Boards or Electoral Commits
Sions, or by any other trick or device
whatever, undertake to install into that
Office any other than the constitutionally
elected candidate2 With such guaranty
and such purpose, openly and publicly
avowed beforehand, the Democratic party
is not likely to fail Of securing the Presi-
deney in $780, 1t should be known and
understood, at the outset, that there is to
be no child's play at the next Presidential
election. The party should resolve on \
fair contest, and, having elected their man,
to inaugurate him President, at sohatercr
cost. With the memory Of the outrage
perpetrated upon them by the adhercnts
Of tho present incumbent fresh in their
minds, let this be the spirit and determi-
nation Of the Democrati, party in entering
upon the next Presidential election.

PRxxsYLvASlA PUBIIc ScHosls. The Phil.
adelphia Ledger says :-If The act to compel
children 10 attend school, introduced ia The
House Of Represe9iatiyes on Monday, is to be
pressed, i should DO followed By an act 10
compel somebody toproyide the SCHOOLS which
the children may attend Pennsylvania spends
a great deal Of money on its public schools,
some OF It apparently unwisoly, for, while the
higher education Of a few e we'll cared for,
there are continual complaints made of the
insufficieney Of school accommodations for
young children. Without raising the ques
ton whether il is or ~ not the duty OF the
State 10 give that higher education 10 the
limited number Of children whose position in
life enables them 10 aeceptit, there can be no
doubt Of the fact that provision should first
be made for those compelled at an early age
70 leave schools for stores and workshops.
When that is done, II win be time enough 10
talk about compelling the children to 90 10
school.

Conflict of Federal and State Authority.

There is a conflict Of authority between
Federal and State courts in Virginia,
Two negroes were indicted for crime a.
gainst the laws Of the State in one Of the
county courts, and they demanded a jury
Of their own color to sit in judgment at
their trial. This was refused, as the jury
for that term Of the curt had already
been drawn, and was composed Of whites,
as is the case everywhere, with but few
exceptions. The counsel for the negroes
appealed to Judge Rives, judge Of the U.
s. Court for the Western District Of Vir-
GINA, who ordered the prisoners into the
custody Of federal officials, under his own
peculiar construction of a law, which for
bids distinction on account of race, color,
&C.; aud for fear that the State authorities
would take possession of the prisoners a
gain, had them removed to jail in dis
tant part of the State. This assumption
of power by Judge Rives has been warm
" eensured by the Legislature, and Gov.
Holiday has been instructed to institute
ia the United States Supreme
Court to obtain the prisoners for trial 10
the State courts, and also to determine
the limits Of authority of Federal dis.
trict courts.

Better Times in the South.

The New York Tribune says the Southern
cities are slowly recovering from the impov-
erishment Of war times Charleston looks
rusty and down. the heels, and Petersburg
Is thriftless, almost lifeless; but Richmond,
Norfolk, Lynchburgand Wilmington are full OF
bustling activity, and Savannah is fast becom.
ing commercial centre. Another Georgia
city, which has prosperous look, is Augusta.
1t escaped the actual rayages Of war and was
among the first Of the Southern cities TO pro.
fit by the piping times Of peace. II has broad,
well-shaded streets, attractive shops, hand.
some gardens and residences, and monn-
ment which in artistic pretenlions and merits
is one Of which II need not be ashamed. II
has, moreover, a beautiful little suburb, the
Sand Hills with two pretty churches and more
tasteful houses than can be found sin many
leagues the country round" There are many
signs of wealth, refinement and culture in
this lovely little spot. 1t does not have what
is SO common in the South-the shabby.gen
teel and better. days air. II tray.
elers' tales are to be believed, pretty girls are
more common at Sand Hill than white but.
terflies in n June cloyerlield, and what is
most delightful Of all, the old ladies are as
charming as the girls.

That lsost impracticable gentleman, Mr..
A. IL Stephens. of Georgia, introduced
into the House of Representatives on Tues
day, from the Committee on Coinage, a
bill for the coinage of @goloid meitie dol
lars, Ave dollars, and fractions Of dollar."
What does Mr.. Stephens propose to do
with that clause Of the Constitution which
recognizes oniy gold and silver as eurren-
ey7 But for that instrument he might
as wen have brought 10 a bilI to revive the
bronze coin Of medimyal times, or the iron
coin Of Lyeurgus. All that is needed,
nov, 10 the way of coinage, is to call in
the trade dollar, coin il into the standard
dollar, aud let the currency alone. To be
forever tinkering it and originating dis
similar coins Of the same nominal value,
is to produce confusion aud depreciation.

The meeting at Raine's Hall, Baltimore,
on the Sth inst. was attended BY some
three hundred Of the most prominent Re.
publicans in the State. The object of the
meeting was to reorganize the party in this
State under a new State Central Commit
tee, and the movement initiated at Raine's
Hall is altogether too formidable to be
ignored. Among other resolutions the
meeting passed one urgently calling upon
the Chairman Of the State Central Com
mittee, r. Stockett Matthews, Esq to call
that Committee together not later than the
22d February, for the purpose Of calling a
State Convention and forming new Com
mittee. If this request is not complied
with, says the Maryland Independent,
whose editor, Mr.. Eugene Digs, was Sec
rotary of the sth of January meeting, eve
see no alternative but that the people shall
take the matter in their own hands and
rid themselves and the party organization
of those who are in open rebellion against
their publicly expressed wishes. Mean
time this movement of the dissatisfied wing
Of the Republican party, is very distaste-
ful to that division of it commonly called
the Fulton and Thomas ring which now
controls the patronage as well as the party
machinery, and parcels out the Offices in
its own interest. The Baltimore Ameri-
can, the Cumberland Ne,5s, and the Ha.
gerstown Herald and Torch, do not ap-
prove Of the movement because they are
Of the "Ins' The Netes says-"Unless
an end is speedily put to the chickering's
aad dissensions in our ranks we shall be
in no condition to engage in the next
campaign under encouraging auspices.
II is believed that Mr.. Matthews will com
ply with the resolution Of the meeting, and
call the convention as requested in Febru-
airy, although he will yield reluctantly and
with very bad grace, If he should not,
further developments may be looked for
speedily.

The nine millions of the Geneva award
still in the U. s. Treasury may be paid
back to England or not but the FIVE mil
lion fishery award made to Great Britain
will be the means of terminating the fish
cry section of the treaty of Washington.
New Eogland fishermen and Canadian
iishermep may then embroil the two gov
ernmenis, without let or hindrance, by
their mutual depredatiOus upon each other.
1t viii scarcely be worse, however, than Il
has been, under the provisions Of the
Washington treaty.

WHAT HAS IT CosT ?--We have long
desired to know the gross amount paid by
this government to the Syndicate--and
all others who have had hand in nego-
tiating its bonds Senator Salisbury sub
mitted resolution on the 18th inst. asking
detailed information from the Secretary of
the Treasury in regard to the commissions
paid to bankers and others for negotiating
United States bonds since 1862, and also
what advantages have accrued 10 the way
Of interest to parties allowed to hold their
bonds on deposit at different times, etc.
If this resolution shall pass aud the iuior-
nation shall be furnished to the people in
pursuance thereof, the sum viii be start
ling on account Of its magnitude and enor-
nifty. 1t will probably uncover the big
gest shave Of which there is any mention
10 the records Of finance.
