took occasion TO announce that he would

to meet him at these appointments in debate.
He intended to make it hot for Malone. He

Let Mr.. Blaine Answer.

From the Nation:
Mr.. Blaine's friends seem to take Mr.. Bel
mont's jumping ON Jim Blaine their tech
meal name for criticism Of that statesman :
performances-veFy much to heart. The
Tribune reproduces q number Of editorial ar
ticles in which Mr.. Belmont is pronounced a
little backyard IAN ass, ''presump-
tnous little eur, ''Poltroon, wood
chnck, .'catspaw, ''servile parrot, q
''pigmy," young jaekanapes, with much
other severity Of the same sort. This, how
ever, is not interesting TO the public, which Is
not curious about Mr.. Belmont. The person
it wants to know about is Mr.. Blaine; and the
Washington correspondent of the Herald in
Inmates that the Senate Committee on Foreign
Affairs will probably try its hand at examin-
ing him about his Peruvian troubles, and may
find him more traetable. Among the things
which he did not tell Mr.. Belmont, but which
we should all like to hear, are, according 10
this authority, how be came to compel Mr..
Christiancy to recognize as a de fdctO Govern
ment Senior Calderon, who had so little de
faetO about him that he was arrested by a
policeman? What "the personal talk was
which General Hurlbut said he had with him,
and which supplied him (Hurlbut) with ''the
motive for his action? Why he rebuked
Fitzpatrick when he had obtained from Chill
everything he was instructed TO demand
Why he never wrote to Hurlbut about any
thing but the Landreau claim? Why he
thought the mild concurrent resolution Of the
House about the Landreau claim mandatory
when the Senate had refused to concur? 1t
would also be well to ask him what he means
by ''res ddjudicata, phrase in which he
evidently finds much balm. If there be ans
mode of addressing these questions to Mr..
Blaine which he viii not consider offensive,
they ought to be put by some elderly man.

Picturesque B. and o.

From C. H. Lord, General Passenger Agent
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, we have
received copy of the above work. We have
frequently expressed the opinion that 1.-The
Aldine" was the handsomest magazine ever
printed in this country, but picturesque b.
& OF equals if not surpasses it. The work is
a description of trip over the road, and has
tilv sketches the route from New York to Bal
timore. When the party reach Baltimore they
visit the grain elevators, the steamship piers
and the machine shops of the Company; are
taken to Washington back again to the Relay
House, then to Ellicott City, Frederick juno
ton, Weverton, Point of Rocks and Harper 5
Ferry. From the latter place they visit the
several we'll known springs of Virginia; then
return and proceed to Cumberland, Deer Park
and Oakland A short trip is also taken on
the Connellsville and Pittsburg Branch.
Each place is eharmingly described, and the
illustrations, made especially for this work,
are by the best artists inthe country. To one
who has travelled the road it is the trip over
again. Those who have not should purchase
the book and they will read it with much profit
For beautiful and grand scenery the B. & O..
is not surpassed by any road in this country.
The work is entertainingly written, and is
an ornament to any library. 1t can be pro-
cured at Shellman S, ADVOCATE building.

Some Poultry Statistics.

New York city buys $4,000, 600 worth of
eggs year. This seems like a staggering ag-
gregate, but it is backed up by the figures in
the reports of the Produce Exchange. For
some unknown reason the Produce Exchanges
of the other large cities have not hitherto in
Guided the traffic in eggs and poultry in their
reports. Statistics from all the cities would
be matter of interest, and if they could be
had would surprise the general public. The
egg trade alone in Atlantic cities cannot be less
than S25, 00O,000 II year, and the traffic in
poultry is of at least equal dimensions. Thus
the food supply furnished by the poultry yards
of the country is no small or insignificant
amount Allowing that one halfofthe money
value of the poultry products of the country
is consumed on the Atlantic slope, the entire
aggregate would reach the enormous sum OF
one hundred million dollars. This is large
sum; so big that few persons understand or
appreciate it. In gold coin, S100, ZOO, 900 rep
resents weight of little more than 10 tons.
Allowing a ton to make Il two-horse load, 1t
would take 170 teams-a string a mile long
to haul it. In silver coin it would weigh g.
$50 900 pounds, or 3, l25 tons, and would load
2G0 freight cars. For the past few years we
have been accustomed to see in print and read
and repeat daily these large sums, but very
few persons realize their significance or value.
The average citizen looks upon poultry and
egg production as a small two-penny affair,
because he knows nothing about it.

The New Laws.

In reply to numerous inquiries about
certain local and general laws, we would
state that we have not received copies of
them and hence cannot give them to the
public. The delay is entirely due to Gov
ernor Hamilton. The Legislature passed
an act requiring the publication Of such
laws of general Importance as the Governor
and Acknowledgement might select, and
made appropriation for the same The
papers in which the laws are to be pub
lished have been selected by the President
of the Senate and Speaker of the House,
and it only remains for the Governor and
Attorney General to perform their duties
under the law. The task could be accom-
plished in few hours, and the Attorney
General has been ready to act Cat least he
has neither been sick nor ABSENT whenever
the Governor should make an appointment
for that purpose.

Sensible Talk.

At meeting Of colored people of Bal
timore on Monday night, TO consider the de-
velopment of the colored race, Rev. j. II. A.
johnson, presiding elder of the A. NJ. Z.
Church, said that the practical training need
ed BY the colored people is that they are to
be educated out of a great many things, par
ticularly out of their prejudices, out of their
shiftlessness, and out of their personal enmi-
ties They are to be educated into higher
state of integrity, more uniform politeness, and
into more practical method of observing re-
ligious duties. They should be taught to
realize their true relationship to the govern
ment, and the best course to pursue 10 enable
them to retain this relationship. Let them
seek to comprehend the full Specification OF
of politics, national and state ethics, preser-
walton and prosperity of our government, I'M
derstand foreign control, augmentation OF
thought, protection of rights and improve,
ment of morals. In conclusion, he counseled
thelq to study the schemes and character OF
politicians who have been the bane OF the
race, and to think out the best plan for the
promotion of their own interests.

Press Opinions Of the Banquet.

Gov. Hamiltons banquet came OF at the
Carrollton Hotel. ia Baltimore city, on We'd
nesday evening, as previously announced. Ii
was attended by a number of O. l.. DIS. IN

To Registers of Voters.

In some counties of Maryland the ques-
ton is being discussed as to the advisable
ty of meeting of registers Of voters to
consider their duties under the new law.
We think the idea of meeting a good
one, and it might be well for the registers
of Carroll county to meet. The State 5
Attorney, under the law, is their adviser
and counsel He, no doubt, if requested,
would be glad to meet with them and ex-
plain the provisions of the new act, and
draw ups form of notification of their times

notices will have to be published about the
oath of June. If it be deemed advisable
to consult together the registers should be
moving in the matter.
