The COMPREHENSIVE.

We have had further adyices from
different parts of the State. Our in
formation in regard to the next
COMPREHENSIVE confirms the opinion
formerly expressed, that Mr.. Keat-
ing's defeat IS an assured fact. Some
leading politicians have suggested
the propriety of recalling his noml-
nation and substituting another man.
This, under some circumstances
might be wise course, but under
the present circumstances we hardly
think the Ring-managers would con-
sent, because it would be an acknowl-
edgment on their part of weakness,
which would produce premature
death. They will rather let Mr..
Heating be defeated and try and
save themselves by throwing the
blame upon the Reformers, but this
arrangement will not have the desir-
ed result, because the people are too
we'll acquainted with the facts. The
Ring will have to suffer the conse-
quence of Mr.. Keating's defeat.
During the past week some of our
best lawyers have intimated the
opinion that Governor Hamilton has
the power to remove the Comptroller
for cause. If this be so it is the duty
of the Governor to exercise this au-
thority, because Mr.. Heating has will
fully violated the laws that he had
sworn to carry out, and hence de-
serveres removal Wood6erry Ne,os,

The President on Politics.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-Murat Hal
stead telegraphs to his paper as fol-
lows. President Arthur in CONVEX
sation to-day expressed his strong
interest in the success of the Repub-
lican ticket in Ohio, and said very
earnestly that under the circum-
stances he thought the election
especially important. He added that
the defeat of Foster would be great
misfortune. He was very cordial
and emphatic, and while he did not
think his opinion important, he au-
thoriZed me to make this statement,
as he certainly had no concealments
on the subject.
1t is not true that Arthur is in New
York to exert influence upon the con-
tests going on in this State. He is
not in the least occupied in them.
He is not very well, having a severe
cold which, while he was in Wash
ington. was near resulting in an
attack of pneumonia. He is getting
over it, and returns to Washington
on Monday. He came here upon
private business, for he had refused,
up to the hour of President Garfield's
death, to take any step that recog-
nized that contingency.
There will be no news about the
Cabinet before the extra session of the
Senate, and perhaps not before the
regular session of Congress.
Conkling refuses to attend the State
convention. and announces he will
personally have nothing to do with
il.

Righteousness of the platform adopt

lieyes that the miners of that region
are illiterate fellows, easily led by
the nose and without ideas of their

cling so tenaciously 10 the stupid
Greenback craze and fOndle the rag
baby in their brawny arms so long
after its death. The truth of the
matter is this: the miners of the
Cumberland coal region, as we'll as
all other miners, look upon their
lives as persistent and continuous
struggle with capital. Capital, to
them, means the companies which
own the mines. Between these com.
panles and the miners there is a con-
slant war over prices, and the miners

A PITIFUL OBJECT.-One Of the
NEST forlorn and pitiful objects in
life, says the New York Herald, Is

ness, failed, became dissipated, lost
heart and object, and, having no 9th

his footing, he is tolerated by the
landlord on account of the little odd
jobs that he does. He is there on suf-

BaltimOre's Hospitality.

The hotels of Baltimore are making
extraordinary efforts to insure COM
Portable accommodations fer the
throng in attendance at the Oriole
celebration. The city has ever been
noted for the capacity of its hotels,
their number, accommodations and
unsurpassed excellence of their tables,
and now that 80 many strangers are
to be provided for 1t is the determi-
nation to show them that Baltimore
hospitality is equal to all occasions.
There Will be no increase in the
charges at any hotel, and sufficient
extra force of servants will be EN-.
ployed TO keep the service up to its
wOnted high standard. OF one thing
the public may be assured, and that
is that Baltimore will give a warm
and cordial reception to all and fol-
low it up with good accommodations
and an abundance to eat.

Thurlow Weed, in Tribune inter-
view in regard to the state conyen-
ton in New York said:
This dividing into factions and
stigmatizing each other with epithets
such as 'stalwart' and 'half-breed' IS
injurious in every way, and there
will be an end Of it; and instead of
it we will have united and har-
monious party-united in expressing
great confidence in the wisdom and
integrity which would have charac.
terized General Garfield's admins
tratson, if his life had been spared,
and united also in transferring that
feeling with great unanimity to
President Arthur. There will be
two planks in the platform. One will
express warm regret for the death of
the President, in whose wisdom and
patriotism the party had confidence,
and the other will transfer that con-
tidence to President Gartield's sue
cessor."

ANOTHER VANDERBILT ROUTE.
Special to the Commensurate Gazette.
SELBYPoRT, Md, Oct. 3.-There is
talk here of new railroad through
this section to open up the great sup
plies of coal and iron ore here. An
engineer passed through here on a
preliminary survey for an extension
of the Vanderbilt lines from Pitts
burgh to Connellsville and thence up
the Youghiogheny river by this
point, and was going past Deer Park
and Oakland to connect with the
Maryland Central. He said there
would be a railroad built here inside
of year.

The Democratic ticket nominated
Tuesday is not at all formidable
one, in fact it is generally considered
a weak one, and badly located. The
nominees for County Commissioners
are all from the extreme western side
OF the county, and all in adjoining
districts. Two of the large districts
mos. and 81 were entirely ignored.
Of course Oakland comes in for the
lions share, securing three of the
eight positions, and dissatisfied be-
cause they did not get more. The
convention was a tame affair. The
aspirants for such remotely possible
political honors as it had to confer.
were not large. In this there was a
wise discretion. The Democrats knew
that the ticket nominated by the Re-
publicans would be elected without
a single exception, and consequently
they were not anxious to show their
patriotism by spending their time
and money for the luxury of being
candidates for offices to which there
was no possibility of being elected.
But somebody must be nominated in
order that there should be somebody
to contribute campaign funds. Thus
it came to pass that number of gen.
telemen who were anxious for Office
and innocent in politics. were meekly
led to the altar and became willing
victims. When election day is over
they will have spent their money and
wasted their time, but they will haye
grown wiser in experience.
The Republican party is perfectly
harmonious and united and will
march into the battle with it's ranks
closed. Nothing can secure the de-
feat of its nominees but treachery
within the party, and of this the
Democrats need have no hope. Hence
we predict that when the season for
mass meetings, brass bands and
oratory is over, there will be a num-

Programme for the Baltimore Oriolo


Baltimore's programme for tho
Oriole will, it would appear. be lin
tied only to the matter of the DUn-
Der of hours embraced within Mo
three days and nights from October
10th to 18th inclusive. There is to
be a peculiarly novel and striking
water display commemorative of the
Inauguration ofthe new water works.
The fountains will be OF remarkable
dimensions and the proceedings
throughout will be of the most inter-
esting character. Next in order will
be the grand parade of military, fire
and civic organizations. and which
will be most brilliant sight. The
reception to the French visitors will
he a notable event ard of such de-
scription as to fire the patriotic heart
and awake again the old enthusiasm
of a hundred years ago. Among the
Frenchmen will be the immediate
descendants of Lafayette, DECREASE,
DeBanas, and other great Generals,
who at Yorktown rendered such glo-
riouS assistance to the American
cause. The distinguished French
will be the guests of the city of Bal
timore during the entire three days,
and the inequalities in their honor
will be such as long to be remember
ed. Tuesday there is to be a grand
concert by the famous Gilmore Band
of New York, the place selected be-
ing the beautiful Monument Square
where thousands can hear and where
there will he no disturbing sounds.
This matchless organization numbers
sixty-fve of the first musicians of
New York and the concert, which
will be of between two and three
hours duration. will embrace the
choicest compositions of famous
composers. OF the gorgeous Oriole
pageant at night too much cannot be
anticipated. as it will 60 far beyond
the expectation of the most sanguine.
The brilliant moving spectacle will
reach upwards Of three miles in
length and the subjects illustrated
in the exquisitely beautiful tableaux
will call forth the greatest interest
and incite the most enthusiastic adj

Gras will certainly prove as promis-
ed. unparalleled in the country.
Wednesday there is to he an exhibi.
ton of outdoor sports such as rarely
combined in single days pleasure.
There will be running, walking and

Then comes the glorious carnival and
ball, and the streets of the city will
be thronged with gay maskers. The
very low figure of one half the usual

that can be asked in the way of low
rates, and every care will be taken to

There is no Death,

There is no death! The stars 20 down
To rise upon some fairer shore;
And bright in heavens jeweled crown
They shine forer ermore.
There is no death. The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer shower
To goi en- grain or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flowers.
The granite rocks disorganze
To feed the hungry moss they bear
The forest leaves drink daily life
From out the viewleSs air.
There is no death The leaves may fall,
The flowers may fade and pass away:
They only wait through winlry hours
The coming of the May
There is no death An angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent tread
He bears or best loved things away,
And then We call them dead"
He leaves our hearts all desolate
He plucks our tairest, sweetest flowers;
Transplanted into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
The bird like voice, whose joyous tones
Made glad these scenes OF sin and strife,
Sings now an everlasting song
Amid the tree of life.
And when he sees smile too bright,
Or heart too pure for faint and wee.
He bears it to that world of light,
To dwell in paradise
Bern unto that undying life,
They leave us but to come again:
With JOY we welcome them-the same,
Except in sin and pain.
And ever near us, tb3ugh unseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread
For all the boundess Universe
Is life--there are no dead.
