8-The meeting of prominent taxpayers of
Baltimore county, held in Baltimore on Saturday,
14th inst, is move in the right direction and we
hope it may meet with the hearty cooperation of
every citizen who thinks more of good and eeonom-
ical local government than he does of who shall or
who shall not fill the Offices This movement, by
proper management, will be the entering wedge
to a reform of the abuses complained of at that
meeting, which can only be accomplished by a
sacrifice of partisan spirit to the best interests of
the taxpayers of the county generally. We find
that more liberal spirit as to local political af
fairs, is rapidly gaining ground and this must
eventually result in good to all. The proceedings
of last Saturdays meeting given in full in our
local columns to-day.

B- Democratic Political affairs in Baltimore
county are beginning to assume an interesting
aspect. Already the tickets in the several dis
tricts are being formed, pledged to the support of
their particular favorite, and by the time the
ventiOn meets everything will be "packed" as
snug as you please. As things now look, the
estate" stands good chance of going through as
formed and if it does-may we all be there to see.

The AriOn Society of Baltimore, with large
delegations from Washington and Annapolis, COM
posing altogether about 700 persons, held picnic
at Irving Park, Annapolis Junction, on Sunday
last. While the sports of the day were in full
blast the Sheriff of Howard county made his ap-
pearance on the scene with warrant for the ar
rest of the proprietor of the Park for violating the
Sunday law. He read the warrant and after he
had gotten through he was picked up bodily and
carried outside of the grounds, without, however,
receiving any rough usage. And then the picnic
went on as usual.

8-The County Commissioners of st. Mary's
county have under consideration plan to provide
for keeping their insane paupers instead of send
ing them to the State asylum. This arrangement,
it is said, would be great saving to the county.
Would it not be well for the Baltimore county
authorities TO make a similar move?

A Good Plan.

The most profitable way of dealing in stocks is by
combining many orders and cooperating them as
whole dividing profits pro rata among share
holders, according to the market, monthly. Each
customer thus secures all the advantages of i'm
mense capital and experienced skill, and can use
any amount, from $40 to $4,000, or more, with
equal proportionate success. "New York Stock

Ex-senator Conkling, of New York, and Sem
ator Lamar, of Mississippi, had decidedly sharp
cross-fre in the U. S. Senate on Wednesday, in
which they called each other towards and liars
and used other harsh language. Mr. Lamar was
the instigator of the trouble, having used unpar-
hamentary language in referring to Mr.. COnkling.
A duel is talked of but the good sense and cool
headedness of the New York Senator will avert
any such termination.

4- The Democratic primaries in Baltimore
on Tuesday last were not only repetition of
what usually takes place at those meetings but if
anything were fifty Per cent worse than anything
yet seen. During the day there were several
riots, besides fsticuffs innumerable, and several
men we're shot. Drunkenness was rampant, the
rings money furnishing the fighting whisky in
any desired quantity. The station houses were
full of bummers and cut-thrOats who were placed
there for disOrderly conduct. Decent people, in
many instances were afraid to approach the polls,
and left in disgust. The ring ruffed the city and
by that means were once more victorious. O.,
what delightful thing it is, to be sure, to have
city ruled by the proprietor of notorious gamb-
ling den, assisted by ring of Office holders, who
manage by mOckery of justice, to keep their

E@-The Philadelphia Record, an independent
Democratic paper, has the following to say of the
Democratic State ticket in Ohio:
"The nomination of Ewing as the Democratic
candidate for Governor of Ohio makes the finan-
cial question the issue of the campaign, and puts
the Democratic party distinctly on the wrong side
of it. The resolutions nothing the candidate
is the platform. Every conservative man in the
country will regard the election of Foster the Re-
publican nominee, as every way desirable. Re-
publicans will have to rejoice in the success
of their candidate, and level-headed Democrats
will see in such a result failure which has less
peril in it than success"
