SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.
The recent County Sunday School Convention
Is universally regarded as grand success. The
attendance was large, and the addresses by Rev.
Messrs. Keitlcr, Bogys, Benson, Hartzell, Cooke,
Steele, Baker, and Smith were all full of valua-
BILE Sunday School instruction. The music was
good, and the general discussions interesting
and profitable. The hospitality with which the
convention was received however, eXceled every
thing else, and the members of the convention
Will ever gratefully remember the kindness of
Rev. Mr.. Keitfer and his congregation.
The were reported 81 Sunday Schools having
in approximate numbers, AIS teachers and 1000
scholars; 200 have united with the churches from
these schools during the year; 25 schools con-
tinue all the year, and 81 schools do not. Near
ly all the schools use uniform lessons. The
Havre de Grace Methodist Sunday School is the
largest in the county, having PA scholars. The
Havre dc Grace Presbyterian School is the sec
ond largest, and has $50 scholars.

CAMP MEETING.

CAMP MEETING
"Tenting on the new camp-ground" is fash
ionable just now and "to go to Camp" seems to
be the highest aspiration of our good people,
On Sunday last our neighborhood was almost
deserted. All the Methodist churches were
closed, and the congregations attending the
Presbyterian and Episcopal churches were much
smaller than usual. Sunday ON the camp
ground is always attractive, but we imagine that
the true enjoyment of the meeting is had on the
more quiet and less crowded days. This camp
however has been enjoyable throughout The

arrangements tend greatly to the success of the

Virginia.

While the State of Virginia is overwhelm-
ingly Democratic the fierce fight between the
Debt Payers and the Rcadjusters, unless
compromise is effected, is likely to give the
State to Garfield The regular Democrats
have their electoral ticket in the field, but its
composition not having been dictated by
General Malone, the leader of the Readius-
tiers or Repudiationists, his faction has also
nominated Hancock ticket The Repubi-
can electoral ticket is also in the field, and the
probability is therefore great that if matters
continue in this shape until the election the
two Democratic tickets will neutralze each
other and give the State to the Republicans
by plurality vote. Foresecing such re-
suit deep interest is felt in bringing about
a compromise, not only by the conservative
people of Virginia. but also by the Democrats
of other States. With this view the people
of the Valley of Virginia have suggested q
plan which would bring the two wings of the
Democracy together and keep the State in the
Hancock column The Regulars and Read
jus5ors have united in signing a request to the
two State committees to strike off the names
OF six of the eleven electors from each ticket,
and that the ten left, with one to be chosen
by the national Democratic committee, shall
be recognized by both factions as the only
Hancock and English ticket. The Republi-
cans, of course, will labor strenuously to pre-
vent compromise, but we hope the good
sense and patriotism ofthe people of Virginia
will be exercised in the matter 1t would be
a browning disgrace to the good old State if
she should be found on the Republican side
in the hour of Democratic triumph.

THE CATTLE TRADE WITH EUROPEAN
effort is about to be made in the British Par
Lament to remove the restrictions on the
trade in live stock from the United States
The restrictions are said to be unnecessary,
under the present system ofinspection, and
while they enure to the benefit of British
stock raisers, their abrogation would benefit
consumers, since it would lower the cost of
beef in England from two to four cents per
pound. The cattle raisers and graziers of
this country have therefore a deep interest in
the success of the movement. The cattle
trade of the city of Baltimore, as the jsun
points out, would be greatly increased, if the
trade with England was more free than it is;
and with the restrictions removed it is be-
lieved that in n very short time Baltimore
will be the leading cattle market of the coun-
try.
