Captain Anderson.

Mr.. Editor A few words only in reply
to the Captains address to the public in last
weeks Rockville papers, in which he two or
three times uses my name:
First-l1e does Rot tell 80 the whole truth -
In reply 10 his cordia welcome to me, as a
member Of the School Board, in which he
was pleased to add he "knew that took
much interest in public education" he then
announced himself MS a candidate for re-elec-
ton to the office of Secretary, Treasurer and
Examiner. replied | have o letter in your
behalf from Judge Bowie; out will be very
frank with you, Captain Anderson, do mol
understand your published accounts and then
pointed out TO him where he charged himself
with money which he never received, and
disbursed what never came into his hands,
and showed him how would have stated
the account, making n difference of nearly
SO, 900 in the result. He admitted that was
right, but said that the formula of the State
Board Of Education, which he exhibited, re-
quired him 10 state the accounts as he did
but upon examination neither my colleague,
Mr.. Richard I. White, who was present, nor
could SEQ it as Captain A anderson stated =
In this connection, it is "a little singular that
nowhere in his published Statements does he
let the public know The amount of salary Mt
Tackled to the Office he fills, sometimes putting
y
two years of the whole twelve he has been in
office, so far as have been able to see agree
ing-sometimes putting opposite the item
salary S370, another year S309.5l, another
$500, another $95482, and so on have
been obliged to add, in speaking Of his nc
counts, that ii Captain Anderson understood
bookkeeping, | did not
Seeond-Wlth the satisfactory manner in
which he reviews his own work, have moth
ing to say /; not feeling willing TO disturb the
sslt-complacenoy which this review appears
to afford him.
Ihird-lt is true that at the afternoon ses-
sion, when the Captain volunteered TO act as
Secretary pro tenn. as heretofore stated, hand
cd him lew rough minutes OF the proceedings
in the morning. How lar these were CON
fused and gave evidence of my inability TO
put in shape the organization OF such meet
ing, is fact, the truth of which will not
consume the time OF II Montgomery jury to
establish Or gainsay
Fourth-As to the Captains fling about the
King OF Dahomey and the tribe of Ashantee, |
confess he has the advantage OF me. Report
says, he has tried his hand OH the FIELD of
slaughter against his own tribe, II feat to
which am glad to say never aspircd, or
was urged TO occupy. How many heads he
has decapitatsd history does not record
fVh-lf Captain Anderson possesses the
high scholastic qualification he claims, fact
which by no means feel inclined to dispute,
his own first grade certificate as TO the quail
hcaiion Of his successor, and his election and
retention for eight years as Principal of the
largest school in the county, ought 10 he en-

County School Board.

Ml. Editor What has come across the
appointing power with regard to our county
schools? | have seen letter from one Of
our Circuit Judges, also one from the Rev.
5. r. White and Captain Anderson, and IA
circular all the way from Washington, con-
tanning an ingeniousy gotten up lampoon,
which | see that three or four citizens, by
their card in your last issue, are fearful
may cause the ghost of Banquo to trouble
them, which will not down at their bidding.
Were there not some discrepancy in the
Judges and Reverend genteman's letters !?
The Judge must have forgotten that he was
placed in that position of power through
democratic suffrage. 1t was bad enough for
him to act as he did, but his lame defense of
his appointments makes il look like he was
trapped into making them, for after it was
done he tried to make old Democrats, who
have stood by him through thick and thin,
believe that his judicial brother who assisted
him in his seven to eight venture, was a
good Democrat. If he did not know what
TO do why did he not call that true and tried
Democrat, Judge Lynch, to his aid, and not
be seeking attor other godsy II he had,
hardly think he would have been made to
play the dupe in our school boards embro-
Clio, for there never WIS a greater farce at
tempted with less excuse, and if our law
makers can only sec through glass darkly,
they will hasten to remove all these one
man-power appointments. If they arc al
allowed to remain in force, as at present
every trickster who wants an Office will fol
low the example set by our standby and
successful otfice-seeker until he succeeds in
carrying his point by hoodwinking some old
time Democrat who may have been pu. in
power by his coniiding and unsuspecting
constituents. Some people seem to think that
this removal of our late worthy school
board and examiner is only the first step
on the ladder of this secret conclave, which
was So closely welded together that even
the sacred right OF petition could not pene-
trate its dark fold, as shown by the appoint
ment Of one for school examiner against
the wishes of the strongest petition that the
Democrats of this county could present, il
being signed by all the peoples representa-.
tives at Rockville, who remained tue and
loyal to that part of the Democratic faith
which says the majority must rule Even
that able jurist, the Republican Judge, was
too conservative 10 advocate extremes, and
tried by letter TO check his hayward broth
ers appointecs in their suicidal course.

HANCOCK-THE DARK HORsE.

HANC0CK-TYE DARK HORSE.
Whilst there is settled determination
upon the part Of large and influential
class of people in the country to make Grant
the next occupant of the White House, then
the Empire-and whilst it appears to us that
yet we feel confident that the people are
not yet ready or willing to submit to the
oppressive tyranny of despotism. Particu-
larly so are the masses of the North, if there
be any truth in the utterances OF the press,
They do not want imperialism, because
they are not a war-like people, neither do
they desire the hardships and struggles o.
poverty. Hence we have observed thai
there is strong and growing opinion
and determination upon the part Of this
people of this section of the country to
have General Hancock the nominee of
the Democratic party for President-in
case General Grant receives the Chicago
northumberland consequently we find the
name of General Hancock steadily rising
in the public view
Without giving any expression. of opinion
as to our choice, we do not hesitate to say
that we believe General Hancock is one of
the very strongest men whose names have
been used in conjunction with the Presiden-
tial nomination, He has a stronger claim
tern States than any man living. He can
not be called or sneered at as cooper
head" or rebel sympathizer." No man
struck the South harder blows or did it in a
more manly fashion. Whilst he is in every
sense of the word a Democrat, he is not
what might be termed politician. He
possesses to great degree those other GER
tain great qualities Of mind and heart which
are certain to bring popular strength, with
out regard to his profession, one way or the
other-that is, he is honest, brave, sagacious,
and imbucd with love of law, and his en-
emies even cannot deny him these great
qualities, which have been most fully exem-
plified in his career.
He was one of the genuine heroes of the
Union Army, and when the war was over
and the work of reconstruction began he
at once demonstrated by his manly acts that
he had a heart to feel for his vanquished
ccuntrymen and a mind to appreciate the
value Of civil liberty. With such n record,
possessing such essentials, he is most emf
nently qualified for the office, and must have
great weight with the people "

The memorial to the House of Delegates,
signed by three citizens of Allegany county,
preferring charges of malfeasapce against
Judge Pearre and asking his impeachment,
was submitted to the House of Delegates on
Wednesday last. fhe paper is in the posses
sion of the Allegany county delegation, and
DR.. Bruce win present it to the House. The
charges are nine in number, and allege UNI
becoming conduct in Judge Pearre while on
the bench in sitting and deciding upon cases
where the Baltimore s. Ohio Railroad Com
pany was involved, of which corporation
he is a stakeholder. The charges further
allege that the Judge was biased in his de-
cisions by personal interests; that his con-
duct as judge was a reproach to the judi
ciary, and other charges of a similar nature.
AS has heretofore been stated, it is not be-
leyed that the House, after deliberate con-
sideration, will send to the Senate articles
of impeachment on which Judge Pearre
would be tried by the Senate.
Since the above was in type Judge Pearre
is before the public in an able and exhaus-
tive refutation ofthe published charge ofmal-
feasance, and supported by various letters
from some of the leading and prominent
members of the bar and private citizens OF
Cumberland. We have read this statement,
closely and attentively, and can but arrive
at the conclusion that tho charge is without
foundation. Judge Pearre is a native of this
county, where he has many relatives, friends
and admirers who will be much gratilied at
his bold, manly and convincing statement.
AS regards other matters stated in the me-
mortal VIC are unable to form any correct
oninion
