S-No sooner is the campaign in Virginia
over than the Democrats begin to tell the truth
about the Malone movement. All through the
campaign the idea was steadily maintained by the
Northern Democrats that the anti-Bourbons were
fighting for reputation and the BOurbOns were
fighting against it, yet on Thursday morning after
the election, one of the most Jealous Bourbon or
gans, The Richmond State, was able to say: "The
white men of Virginia, who fancied that a vote
for Mahone's man, Cameron, meant vote for re-
pudiation or readjustment, or any action touching
the State debt, will surely be disappointed. The
Republican party, to which Malone is sold, will
insist on the payment of the debt" This, then, is
the object of the unhoIy coalition between the Re-
publican party and MahOne-the payment of the
debt. How shockingly dreadful

na-The fact that Thomas ]. Heating. the Den

MG-The fact that Thomas J. Heating, the Dem
oeratic candidate for Comptroller, was VIGOROUSLY
unpopular is too well known to require repetition.
That he failed to get the undivided support of his
own party is a fact conceded all sides. That
Thomas Gorsuch was unanimously satisfactory to
the Republicans, and free from objection to his
party and without salient objection from any
quarter, except that he was a devoted Republican,
is equally well settled. The inspection of the vote
of Baltimore county shows that Mr.. GOrsuch ran
43 votes ahead Of the highest man on our county
ticket, and it is well known that Mr.. Roche as
we'll as Mr.. Baylies, pOlled a considerable number
of Democratic votes. There existed reason
why Republican should scratch Mr.. GOrsuch and
none could be offered why Republican should
vote for Mr.. Heating Yet it seemg, strange as it
may appear, that Mr.. Gorsuch ran behind four
candidates the Republican ticket in Hartford
county-273 votes behind Mr.. Baker and 243 be-
hind Mr.. Allen, the two Republicans eleeted-and
q critical analysis shows that at every polls where
Allen and Baker ran ahead of Gorsuch, Heating
ran ahead of Stump in almost similar number of
votes. We cannot see how the unpopularity of
Stump would necessarily take votes from GOrsuch
and give them to Heating.

S-In one of the precincts of the 9th ward of
Baltimore city, d. Pinkney West the Republican
candidate for Sheriff, was returned not having
received single vote 1t now turns out that at
least fifty men are willing to come forward and
make affidavit that they not only voted for Mr..
West but also voted the whole Republican ticket.
We know of one Democrat who is willing to swear
that he voted the straight Democratic ticket ex-
eept for Sheriff and that he voted for the Repub-
Iican nominee. But the Democratic judges did
not think it necessary to count Mr.. Vests vote,
and he was returned as having received none. 1t
will require something more than a new registra-
ton to beat this kind of rascality.

Is-It is affecting to hear our Democratic CO.
temporaries wall over the hardships of "poOr Gov
eminent employees" who are called upon to help
pay the expenses of political campaigns. One
might suppose that Democratic offce-holder was
never called upon for contributions, were he to &C.
eept as genuine these crocodile tears. But Dem
ocratic practice proves the hypocrisy of Demo-
cratic professions in this matter. The trouble
with them is that they have not as many Office
holders to call upon as they would like. For our
part we see good reason why ofice-holder
should refuse to contribute to legitimate party
penses, especially when upon the result of the
test his own official head depends. If they will
not help who should foot the bills ? The legiti-
mate expenses of a general election are large
necessarily and must be met by somebody, and to
us there seems nc improperly in inviting the
holders of public positions to chip in, albeit this
may not accord with the requirements of the "civil
service reform" urged by the Democracy, when it
serves their purpose best.

MR.. HARRIS in the chioaeo oonuention.

Mr.. Harris in the Chicago Convention.
When Gen. Chester A. Arthur was placed in
nomination in the Chicago convention for he
Vice Presidency, Hon. J. Morrison Harris, who
was delegate atlarge from Maryland, seconded
the nomination in the following speech
"My. Uairman-0n behalf of delegation that
proposes to cast its solid vote for the
gentleman from New York, who has now been
placed in nomination for the Vice Presidency and
at tho request of many gentlemen around Tle,
desire, with great heartiness to second that nami
nation. l do not need, sir, in addition to what we
all know of the character and career of thRzAee4~
tleman, to hear more than l have heard from
members upon this floor of his peculiar fitness,
both politically and personally, for that high
Office. / only wish, sir, that while saying that
Maryland will give to him her solid vote for his
nomination, could also be able to say that the
Republican party of Maryland could give in No
vember next both to him and to the distinguished
gentleman from Ohio, who will be with him on
the ticket the solid vote of the tate. unfortu-
nately, sir am not able to say that get but, sir,
we shall go to our homes in Maryland, confronted
as we are o-day by powerful Democratic ma
jority, with hearts insprited with the highest
courage and full of the most brilliant hope. We
shall go there, sir, knowing that we will be able
to fight an aggressive and a successful canvass
and success with us means the beginning of a
revolution in that State, and therefore we Repub-
lcans of Maryland extend to this convention our
heartiest thanks, that they give in the distin-
guished nominations made and to be made the
best opportunity of beginning the great revolu-
ton in that State which we trnst not long hence
will place it in the hands of the Republican party
of the Union.
81 second, sir, for another reason this nomina
ton with pleasure. Many of us from Maryland
have been voting throughout the sessions of this
convention against gentlemen with whom, for
many reasons, we would have been happy to have
been in personal concurrence, but our convictions
of the necessities of the occasion have governed
our respective votes; and 7 6npsklad, - A1Sy

Gs-A prominent free trade journal in England,
while admitting the distress which the sharp com
petition engendered by protective duties has
brought upon English mill owners, has no other
plan to propose for their reefthan that two hours
additional per day should be added to the time
employees are now compelledto work. As further
reduction in wages is an impossibility, the only
remedy is to add to the hours of labor without ad
ditiOnal compensation. Will the laborers in our
mills and factories who tainted with free trade
doctrines bear this fact in mind They escape
such dangers by holding on 20 protection, which
not only advances the prosperity of the country,
but also of the individual labOrer.

Arkansas, Florida or California had when they
were admitted. Her agricultural wealth is already
great and growing fast. She has large mineral
resources, but they have hardly been developed.
Dakota has pretty strong claims to enter our great

re- The biggest farce ever enacted in Mary
land under the forms of law was the inquest by
the Anne Arundel Coroner's jury over the body
of Dr. 7. Clay Maddux, who was shot and killed
at Odenton election day for interfering in mat
tiers which did not, as non resident, concern him.
The inquest seems to have been put up job from
beginning to end, and reflects most discreditably
upon all connected with it.
