BALTIMORE COUNTY FARMERS Sw1NDLED-
If misery loves company, the farmers in the up
per part of Hartford county who were swindled
by the agent of the so-callcd "White Washing
Machine Company" will not feel lonesome
The stylish agent and his companion who i'm
posed upon them also operated to a considerable
extent in Baltimore county. Local agencies
were established there as here and contracts
signed. The latter were adroitly converted into
promissory notes. which were afterwards sold,
presumably at discount. The signcrs of the
contracts are now called upon to pay their
promissory notes These notes are for sums as
high as $3.50.

"25 VEST TWENTY SIXTH STREET,
June 20, 1850.

"MY DEAR GENERAL: I take the

You upon your nomination, and to as
sure you, lifelong Wing aud Repub.

Gus and Very s;aunch ola sllver.gray

You, sir, embody tho views and
sentiments in regard to tho great
questions OF the day that We have en-
tertained since the war closed. They
are the same that act,lated General
Grant when he laid down those lib.
eral terms OF surrender to General
Lee. They are the same that actua.
ted my poor friend Raymond. when
he battled SO mantuily 10 the com.
mittee OF Congress against the savage
policy OF Thad. Stevens. l believe
Gen. Grant would support you to-
day, did not the exigencies Of his sit.
uation forbid it. Aud Henry J. Ray.
mond, were he alive, would support
you too. unless the exigencies OF the
New York Times restrained him. He
was compelled at an early day to
smother the sentiments he had ex.
pressed In the address OF the Phila.
delphia Convention. to abandon bis
career in legislative halls and to
change tho tone OF the Times, or, as
Mr.. Jones, our business manager and
partner, insisted, the paper would be
ruined. Il believe l offered to pay
tue dam gees at the time. but that
was considered impracticable.) It
was 4 bitter pill, but it had to be
swallowed. Thad Stevens had sue.
ceeded through = Congress which
misrepresented the country in en-.
grating his policy upon the Republi.
can party. And though a majority
OF the party, as firmly believe, were
disguised, it was fastened upon them
and there was no way OF getting rid
OF it. Thus for years a vast number
OF us, good Republicans, have been
compelled to be helpless supporters

worst that could be devised. An op.
portuntty is presented us now for the
first time with any show Of success to

tions, and I am sure We shall do it
most joyfully. With great respect

them for their services. As II the
State had any source OF revenue save
that OF taxation upon the people,
while they have been juggled into

We are glad to note that the great

Southern Journalism.

The rapid strides that have been
made In Southern journalism during
the past few years are truly astonish.
ing. 1t was q common saying up to
very late date. "if you want to get
home news. you must subscribe for a
Western or Northern paper" al.
though there were three or four dali.
les published In New Orleans that
were making their publishers rich
through advertising. 1t was also q
we'll settled fact that no paper in the
South could live by subscription
alone. Now, however, things have
changed. The Southern people have
become more enlightened; they have
become reading people. The pub.
fishers, too, have become more en-.
terprising. and we look In vain in
Northern or Western journals for any
thing that our home journals do not
give.
We are let to these remarks by
comparing the columns Of the New
Orleans Democrat OF to-day with
those whose birth dates back from q
quarter to a half a century. It has
now become, under Its present able
management, Il power in tho land,
and still keeps on improving. The
vigorous mind Of tho gentleman at
It's head, Major f. A. Burke, omits
no detail to make it the Southern RI
val Of the New York SIN.
Another notable feature Of journal
istic enterprise is the daily city Item.
Under the able Encouragement, Of its
experienced editor, Mark +. Bigney,
ESQ.,. and the cooperation and ener-
gy OF a dozen Of the most competent
printers Of New Orleans. it has grown
from small acorn to a sturdy oak.
It has entered upon its fourth vol.
ume, and has a firm hold upon the
affections Of the people Of New Or.
leans. The writer Of this labored on
It during the first year Of its exist
ence with all the energy Of his ma.
ture. and no one kNOWa bettnr the
difficulties it had to encounter. It
will be always a pleasure to us to
note its prosperity. Both OF these
journals have done much to arouse
the dormant energies Of other pub.
fishers. and We find none OF them, as
in former times, during the summer,
filling their columns with dead
wood" May they all prosper. say

Property Assessment.

Public attention in this. as we'll. az
In all sections Of Louisiana, has been
arrested In a most startling manner
BY an article which appeared in the
New Orleans Democrat. 10th June, on
the subject OF assessment. In the
article referred to the Democrat sets
forth the alarming fact that large
property owners were deliberately
returning their property to the State
at one.tenth, or less. OF its market
value.
Now comes the Iberville South and
In an equally outspoken manner

land owners ofthat parish who are
shsmeiessly doing the same thing,
