On a Diligence Road to Mexico.

In Mrs. Mary Hallock Foote'S "Dili-
gence Journey in Mexico" in the Cen
ts0y Magazine (recently Scribner), occurs
the following: Thus far we had met
no vehicles except the two-wheeled
carts drawn by oxen-wheels wi hout
tires, hewn out and showing the sepa-
rate strokes of the ak, but many humble
travellers on foot, trotting into Mexico
with back-loads of market stuff. Fruits
and vegetables were carried in four.
sided hamper or cage called u huacal,
made of osiers; often it was filed with
live fowls, the tail-feathers of the cock
gayly futtering through the bars of the
cage, or was divided into compartments,
with eggs below and fowls above. We
met huge masses of pottery ingen-
iously woven together with the cords
of the agave, and towering perilously
above the bearers head; rolls of mating,
wooden trays, bundles of sugar cane,
cansote Ia kind of sweet potato), and to.
matoes wrapped in green leaves. A
pair of live hens never came amiss,
swinging by the legs from disengaged
hand, or tied to an available corner of
the load. Whole families were en- route,
even to the baby, rolled in one end Of
the long cotton scarf which the Indian
mother wears over her head, or sus.
pended in its folds at her back. 1 do
not think stranger procession could
be met with on the high-roads of this
century.
Steadily climbing, the country grow
ing poorer and wilder, We pass many
heaps of stones supporting the fatal
cross-the place of understanding a
mute appeal to the traveller to pray for
one cut off in his sins. We enter the
mountain passes, dark with pines and
frs, and ascend to the battlefield OF
Las Cruces, on the divide which sepa-
rates the valley of Mexico from that of
Toluca. We pass the monument to Hi
dalgo, and ask with shame who was
Hidalgo, and am answered: 4" He was our
WashingtOn-this is our Bunker Hill I"

that Hidalgo with his Indian insurgents,
armed chiefly with sings, bows, clubs,
lances and mdcheteS, met the troops of
the Spanish government, under Colonel
Truxillo, and drove them back upon the
capital. The loss of the Indians must
have been trightful; in their ignorance
OF the nature of artillery, they charged

telegraphed back, requesting the pur-
chaser to call in O German expert, as he
was certain some Yankee had been test

article pronounced good, and it was
sold at fair profit. A good

Germany, and is found to DOS

riage.
Preparations for wedding feast be-
gins weeks beforehand, and are so ex-
tensive that M. Du Chaillu was utterly
amazed at the quantity of solids and
liquids that he saw stored against an
approaching marriage feast. Invita-
tions to weddings are sent out we'll in
advance of the happy day, SO that the
guests may prepare for two or three
days absence from home; and the
poorest person invited is never without
a wedding garment. The happy couple
eat, drink and dance with everybody;
and 1t seems never to have occurred to
the people to inquire how they do it.
There is limit to the endurance OF
the native head and stomach, and this
generally is found on the third day;
then the guests, on bidding goodbye
to the bride, tender their wedding pres
ents, which always consist of monev.
and are deposited, without being ex-
amined, in box which the bride wears
at her side. How many American girls
will wish only to themselves-that a
similar custom might prevail here can
not easily be estimated, but all of them
will understand why there are but few
bachelors in the land of the midnight
sun. Long as are the wedding festiyi-
ties, those of Christmas far exceed
them, for feasting and fun are industri-
ously kept up from Christmas-eve to
Twelfth-night, and quaint and charm
ing are some of the attendant ceremo-

Democrats Consider.

Any Democrat who may think of voting
for Republican for the Legislature on
personal grounds can scarcely have con-
sidered well the result of such an act.
Suppose your vote should elect him, do
you suppose he would vote for Democrat
for State Treasurer as personal favor to
you? On personal grounds would be vote
against rearranging the Congressional dis
tricts that the Republicans might have two
or three members of Congress instead of
one? On personal grounds would he vote
for any Democratic party measure? Not
at all. When he is elected by your vote
he will vote against your political interests
every time they come in conflict with Re
publican interests.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1881-11-05

Just an the eve Of the election in 1879
report was circulated that Democratic
candidate for County Commissioner only
desired election in order that be might open
a road that would be Of advantage to his
property, and which would cost the county
50, 600, and the report lest him number OF
votes. The candidate was elected, however
and the road IS still unopened, nor did he in
tend opening it during his ineumbeney, i
it is ever opened.
We caution Democrats, and the people
generally, against misrepresentation aud
falsehoods that may either be published IN
the iSeatinel or be told quietly about the
county. Anything derog4tory 10 Demo
cratic management, or to the Democratic
nominees, NAY be set down as absolutely
false. The Republicans having nothing
70 allege against the Democratic party,
have indulged very largely 10 misrepre-
sentation, and the Sentinel, during the
whole campaign, has not advanced one
reason Ehy the Democratic party should
be overihsown, nor did it have any. The
last issue Of the Sentinel before the cleo
ton Of 1879, contained a falsehood about
the sale Of the Stewardship Of the Aims
house, which was completely proven to
be false by Dr. Shaw, Hon. Charles 3.
Roberts, G. t. Mehriug and Alfred Barnes.
The Seatiael Of to-day may contain some
thing Of similar character, and we eau
ton people against erediting it.

Democrats, Beware !

Republican nominees are soliciting Dem
ocrats to vote for them on the ground that
they do not expect to be elected, but would
like to make "good showing" in their own
districts. These candidates, however, are
not combining themselves to their own dis
tricts, but are riding all over the county
asking Democratic support on the same
ground They are not trying to make a
showing in their districts alone, but in
the whole county, and every Democratic
vote for Republican really counts two
against the Democratic ticket. Demo-
Gratis should take warning, lest they elect
some of the Republican candidates by their
personal voting on the grounds of friend
ship, or to assist them to make good
showing" No Republican, if elected to
the Legislature, would vote for Demo-
cratic State Treasurer, no matter if every
Democrat who voted for him should ask
him to do so.

stalwarts and Half Breeds.

The Republicans hold and control the fed
eral offices and patronage in the State, and as
there are not enough of these to go round,
consequently there is a never-ending strife
and contest between the inns and the outs.
The henchmen of each, those trying to keep in
and those trying to get in, in the several coun-
ties, are split into rings and factions, and the
confusion, noise and din of the mercenary
strife, bargaining, ordinations and recrimi
nations are continuously sounded in the pub
lie ear.
The Baltimore county Union, the organ of
the Stalwarts, is making vigorous assaults on
the Custom House, the american and the
Ensor party. The same thing exists in a less
outspoken form in Hartford county. The
curses are just as deep, if not as loud, regard
ing the management of the bosses, and it is
only for the want of good leadership that the
aggrieved and dissatisfied do rot break out
into open rebellion.-Harre de Grace Repub-
iicaR (Repu 6lican).
