Driving a Hen.

When q woman has a hea to drive
into a coop. she takes hold of her
skirts with both hands. and shakes
them quietly to the delinquent and
says: ''Shoo, there!" The hen takes
one look at toe object to convince
herself that it is a woman, and then
stalks msjesticslly into the coop. A
man doesn't do that way. He goes
out doors and says: 1T is singular
nobody can drive q hen but me-"
and picking up stick of wood hurls
it at she offending biped, and observes:
"Get in there you thief" The hen
Immediately loses her reason and
dsshes TO the other end OF the yard.
The man straightWsy dashes after
her. she comes back with her bead
down, her wings out, and followed by
an assortment OF stove-Wood, fruit.
cans and cliDkers, and mad man in
the rear. Then she skins under the
barn, and over fence or two, and
around the house, aid back again to
the coop, and all the while talking
as snly an excited hen can tslG, and
all the while followed by things con.
venient for handling, and a man
whose coat is on the saw-buok, and
whose hat ia on the ground, and whose
perspirstion has no limit. By this
time the other hens have come out to
have hand In the debate and dodge
missiles, and the man says every hen
on the place shall be sold before
morning, and puts on his things and
goes down the street, and the woman
has every one of those hens housed
and counted in two minutes,

DUTY of Harmony in Politics.
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Oct. Bird, 1881

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Oct. 3rd, 1881.
Mr.. Editor 1t is hoped that the death
of our late suffering and heroic President
will be the means of harmonizing all politi-
cal factions to the best interest of our whole
people. For his public actions from his
cradle to his tomb have passed into history,
and he will be known by the generations to
come as Americas chosen child Of destiny,
raised from the humble walks of life by the
throes Of party eruption to fill for a time the
highest earthly position. Yet in the bloom
of his life, by the hand of an assassin, was
he so soon separated from earths fleeting
honors, but may it cause our present and
future rulers to SO act in their official capa-
city that when their days of earth are DER
they may be as lamented as he.
By the by am glad to see that the Demo-
cratic United States Senators are awakening
TO the all important duty that now devolves
on them of choosing president pro tenn. of
United States Senate, which l hope they
will succeed in doing to the satisfaction Of
their constituents, and in case they cannot
harmonize on Delaware's noble son, Bayard,
how would Maryland's coming man, A. p.
German, fill the bill, for from his past politi-
cal life it is thought by his friends Of this
county that in that position he would be
the right man in the right place.
OCCASIONAL,

INDIFFERENCE OF GERMANY

The attitude of the German government
towards the American people during their
national sorrow, as well as towards Its own
people, is one which is calculated to provoke
severe criticism.
The English, Spanish and Belgian courts
have each signalized their respect by appro-
pirate marks and ceremonies. The Presi.
dents of France and Switzerland, the Kings
of Denmark and Sweden, the Pope of Rome
and King Of Italy, the Gar Of Russia and
Sultan Of Turkey, the Emperor of Austria
have sent their personal expressions of SYM
pathy, and the Queen of England, through
her minister, was prominent among the first
in decorating the bier of our dead President,
but not word OF coincidence has been
cabled from the German Emperor and his
Parliament The only indication that we
have had from this power is contained in a
dispatch to London paper stating that the
new German Minister TO America will take
with him to Washington letters of condo
lence.
This very strange and marked indifference
seems all the stranger when we come to con-
slider the very close relations which exist
between America and Germany. Next to
English and Irish in our population come
the Germans, and at the present rate of
emigration the Germans will soon outnum.
Der all other foreigners in our midst They
embrace an element Of our people of which
Americans have long been proud They
hold high places of commercial trust and
political honor They are admired for their
skill in the arts as well as intellectual
ability and they exercise very important
influence in shaping our social, CONNER
cial, industrial and political progress.
Our trade with Germany is very large and
is daily increasing. Our communication
with that great empire is very extensive
millions OF letters go there, and among her
visitors thousands are American. German
lines OF steamers run here, and German
habits and customs are having an influence
upon our people. Under such a condition
Of things the American people had the right
to expect the sympathy of friend from
Germany In their hour Of sorrow, and in
such universal recognition Of the calam.
ity which has overtaken this great Republic
the silence OF kindred nation becomes all
the more strange and the more conspicuous
because this worldwide tribute has been
paid to the memory Of man whose life and
position was such as 70 command the re.
spect and admiration of the civilized world.

The Republican State convention assem-
bled at Cambridge on Wednesday last and
the Grant element came triumphantly to
the front. ex-Pastmaster Cresswell and
Hon. Henry Stockbridge, whom the Balti-
more american has long since relegated to
private life, were conspicuous characters,
the former having been elected as President
of the convention, and the latter as Chair
man of the Republican State Central Com
mittee. The very decided and easy triumph
of these two gentleman, shaped the pro-
ceedings of the convention in accordance
with their taste. Mr.. Thos. N. Gorsuch, of
Frederick county, received the nomination
for COMPREHENSIVE.

CHARLES F. TOWNSEND.
CABINET RUMORS.

The President will not take up his resi-
dence in the White House until after the
adjournment Of the special session. He has
a suite Of rooms at the residence Of Senator
Jones. The staff of executive clerks re-
main in the White House at work. The
President expresses his desire for informa-
ton in regard to department matters, and
has reiterated his wish that there should be
no change at present in the cabinet Never
theless, cabinet rumors are the stock in trade
of all the Quidnuncs of the capital and of
the metropolis. 1t is possible, however, that
the prevailing impression at the national
capital has been created by clique of poll
ticians and schemers who desire cabinet
more suitable to their purposes than that
which was formed by the late President
Garfield, and that they are seeking TO in
luence the new President by leading him
TO believe that public sentiment expects and
is prepared for the proposed changes. This
is the first danger that assails President
Arthur. He must guard himself carefully
against a Misrepresentation of public opin-
ion. The people are not prepared for sweep
ing cabinet changes, and none except as
individual provocation may arise. The pub
lie regards the present situation as very diff
ferent from the Inauguration OF new ad-
ministration elected by the people.
President Arthur in his brief inaugural
address has distinctly outlined purpose to
follow in the footsteps of his martyred pre-
decessor The retention of the Garfield
cabinet as whole until proper occasion
SHOULD present itself for Individual changes
ID be the best evidence of the sincerity
declaration. Hence anything like
blete change of the cabinet will be q
Ppointment and shock to the public.
Q present cabinet is by no means per-
all its parts, and President Arthur
e same constitutional right to choose
n advisers as any of his predecessors
|nt he should beware of the men,
ith indecent haste are advising these
They are acting in behalf of ring
icians, which is small as compared
sie whole American people. 1t is an
ancient and an honorable avocation this of
cabinet making, but we do not remember a
President who has adopted the most cavel
fully framed adjustments of those who have
kindly undertaken to relieve him of this
part of his duty, and we see no good reason
for any departure at this time. The coun-
try has just passed through most touch
ing and trying ordeal, and the people are
but poorly prepared for any act of the ad-
ministration which will provoke discussion
or shake their confidence.

AT a mass meeting Of about eighty per-
sons, forty Of whom were o. L. DIS, held at
Ellicott city, Howard county, on Saturday
last, Hon. Henry E. Wootton, formerly of
this county, was nominated for the House of
Delegates, together with full ticket in op-
position to the regular Democratic ticket of
that county, which was the first one nomi-
mated in the State. A man of such fine
promise as Mr.. Wootton, we are sorry to
see take such misstep in life His motive
is easily .iScernible. He has always been
staunch supporter Of the Democracy and
its leader, Hon. A. P. German, and there is
No Unsuitable cause, comparing the past and
present records, for the segregation of Mr..
WIS devotion and support.

While every true Democrat must detest
the abortive efforts of few sore-heads in
some of the counties of the State to run in
dependent tickets in the interest of the Rad
ical party, their action in this respect is GER
tainly more consistent than that of those in
the party who, while being the most loud
mouthed at the primaries, take every occa-
sion TO secretly Willy the nominees, and
finally vote against them while protesting
to uphold the ticket.

AS we predicted some three weeks since,
Conkling and his "Stalwart" friends have
sustained another defeat, the "Haf Breeds
having apparently easily captured the con-
vention which assembled on the 9th instant,
in New York city. This will doubtless be
notifying blow to the pride of Conkling,
as this action is supposed to be fair ex

pire State upon an issue made up since Mr.,
Conkling's defeat before the legislature for

Poor little Billy Malone, the Virginia
renegade Democrat, is in quite quandary
at present. If he should attend the extra
session of the Senate and vote for Repub-
lican President of that body he fears he will
lose large number of Democratic readjust-
er votes in his State campaign, and if he
should vote for Democrat he will lose the
Republican vote. In this strait he has gone
to New York to try and raise money to
influence enough negro votes to make up
the loss in either case.
