BALTIMoRE'S REGISTRATION LIST

The enunerators Of the last census put
the population of Baltimore City at :532,
100. and its registration lists contain 81
936 names of persons said to be entitled
to vote. Moreover the census gives lJ1-
3G1 as the male population, which would
give the unprecedented proportion OF
four males out of every seven as voters.
These figures show how full the lists
must be of names that have no business
there, bat every one of which i, liable to
be used for fraudulent purposes on eiec-
ton day. Such lists can haze no use cx,
ccpt as materials for kindlng purposes
They are disgrace to the State of Mary
land, and every good citizen should feel
it duty to wipe them ont by some legal
process, that will prevent the reproduc-
ton Of an iniquity Of like magnitude
hereafter. This is a question of the iirsi
Importance to the fair character, not only
of Baltimore. but of the State. The
Governor is right in endeavoring to do

tion in the State, but we doubt whether
he can succeed until law shall be ell

that we fear it has no motive to do the

THE PRESIDENT.

On Thursday another change for the
worse was reported. During the day he
continued to take nourshment as usual,
but did not gain i'll strength. and there
was no abatement in the swelling of the
parotid gland.
After the morning examination the
question of removing the President from
Washington was again discussed by the
physicians, and it was decided by the
majority that the attempt would not he

and pus cells were forming in the gland
which threatened dangerous conse-

A Description of Their New Fertilizer
Mandatory at Colora,

ON the morning Of the 29tl ri MAY last
a heap OF black and Smuuldering ruins
was all that remained of the Waring fcr-
tilizer manutact"ry. The blow was Il
severe one, a' bat il short time before
the fire the works had been enlarged and
improved by the addition of a large leaden
acid chamber for the manufacture of sui
phuric acid or oil of ytriol, an article
which enters largely into the compost
tion of fertilizers The loss on the lead
alone i'll this chamber was over three
Thousand dollars. After short delay
attending the adjustment Of the insur-
anCe. the Company, with remarkable
energy. put Il large force of men at work,
and on the / it'll of August. just seventy
five days from the time of the fire. the
factory had phmnix-like, arisen from It's
ashes in greater magnitude than before,
and is now in full operation.
The new works are situated very near
lN on the same site as those burned. the
main building, which is seventy feet wide
and one hundred feet long, being much
wider than the old one The annex to
the main building, in which are situated
the acid works, is ninety-two feet long
and Sixty-iive feet wide, making total
length of one hundred and nlncty-two
feet. An office is being erected in front
of and adjoining the mill. which will be
22x24 feet in size and furnished with
every convenience.
The view from the factory is a beauti-
full one, looking down the valley of Basin
Run over rich and rolling farm lands, the
blue edge of the Octoraro hills being seen
in the distance.
