ton and orr exchanges, from all sections o.
the State, come to Us with full accounts Of the
deep, miry condition of their roadbeds. Now
in these DAYS when travel is almost essential 10
every man, we think it his time to slow our
advancement in civilization and enllshten-
ment by making such travel possible at all
seasons of the year The first step toward get
ting good roads is to obtain the proper parties
to make them In order 10 do this We must
elect to the important Office Of county commits
sioners men who are intelligent aud indepen-
dent enough TO leave old ruts and adopt those
means of securing good roads which are die
tated b. true economy aud demanded by pub
lie necessity, and not to put into this Board
men who only use and accept the office as Il
stepping stone to some higher political prefer
ment. 1t remains yet to he seen whether or
not tie present Board of commissioners are
going to prove themselves to be men Of this
kind and justify the people in electing them.
We heard an energetic citizen say not long
since, that if he were given the control OF the
money that was annually expended in Charles
county the public roads, he would in Ave
years turnpike every one Of them or, the i'm
portant ones at all events, and he was man
who knew what he was talking about and
meant what he said. Now if this can be done
why cannot our county fathers try the exper-
iment and place some energetic engineer in
charge of the roads Of our county instead Of
placing them in charge Of Tom, Dick and llar-
ry who know nsthing of the work they have
in hand and who, in many cases, care less,
simply because they happen to be of the same
political stripe and aid, by their influence,
the party. 1t is now time our people were
protesting againt the expenditure oftheir money
in a manner which results in more harm
than good to themselves and their horses and
we hope at early day TO see better road
system established.

Fishing Season.

The fishing season of 1882 is now consid-
dered to have begun AZ Alexandria, as the
fish wharf Was rented on Saturday. The letting
was ut action, and Mr.. S J. Reed leased the
wharf at l,l00. The wart WAS leased last
yer IT $3.50 The highest rate ever received
was il 1851, when 80 900 rental Was had. In
1880 ii WAS rented at S15l, so that the renting
this year is above the average of late years,
showing that the fishermen expect good sea-

From the Spectator Qf7 Oct;l

The event of the week has been
another serious dispute between Lord
Duherin and the Porte, owing to a
s%piteful insult levelled by the Sultan
at the British Government. A mum
ber of Armenian porters engaged at
Constantinoplo for service in Egypt
were discharged upon the ternlina-
ton Of the war, and sent back to
their homes. They were arrested,
by orders from the Palace, upon a
charge Of treason, for conspirin9 with
the enemies Of the country, and
threatened with Imprisonment and
exile. Lord Dutterin's remonstranco
was met at first with the simple allie
CATION that they were Turkish sub
iects, and then with the charge
against the men; but be, Of coerse,
persisted, and at last declared that
unless they were instantly released
he would haul down his flag, and
his Government would reconsider its
policy OF maintaining the %suzerainty
of the Sultan in Egypt. Thereupon
the Palace yielded, and the men were
released, to be, Of course, marked
down in detail upon other and trump
ed-up accusations. This is the Sc
cond occasion within six weeks upon
which it has been necessary to *
tort Justice from the Sultan by me
naces nearly amounting to declara-
tions of war, the first one being the
seizure, in impudent violation of all
law, of Sir Garnet Wolseley's mules.
The Sultan, in fact, hoped and pray
ed for the success of Arab Pasha,
who was his tool, and not that of the
National Party, and now that he is
defeated, cannot control his spite.
lie is, as he always has been, the
secret, deadly, and intriguing foe Of
Great Britain, or any other Christian
Power which demands justice for
his subjects.
The papers of Friday are full of
long kilograms from Cairo describing
the procession of the Holy Carpet,
which article of furniture is yearly
presented by the Sultan to the Kaa-
ba at Mecca, and blessed, admired,
and almost adored, on its passage
through Egypt. The ceremonial in
Cairo, as described, suggests at onco
a religious rite, a chapter from "The
Arabian Nights" and a scene in a
pantomime, but it was made splendid
by the presence of Sir Garnet Wolse-
ley and the whole British garrison.
That was, we think, a mistake. Elk
p%erience has taught the Indian Go
vernment to d~isconnect itself totally
from native forms of worship, the peo-
pie regarding the presence of the In
fidels not as an honor to their creed,
but as a proof that they = Infdels,
and as devoid of religious sentiment
as the beasts. Even at Cairo, where
the turning-out Of the soldiers might
have been interpreted as an honour
to the Khediye, and not to the Holy

the Europeans. 1t is quite possible
to protect the ccremoniaIs of a creed
without appearing to join in them,
and in the East the populace respect
rigidity in religious difference. Ma
poIeon got nothing by calling him
self a Mussulman, except contempt.
The correspondent Of the Telegraph
at Cairo, in a letter intended to be
most friendly to Arab Pasha, who,
lie thinks, originally believed himself
q divine instrument, and fell into evil
hands those, namely, of Toulba
Pasha and NJ. Ninet-gives a singular
account of his personal courage.
Unlike the founder of the Egyptian
throne, and his great, though rutian-
", son, Ibrahim, Arab Pasha was
devoid of ply steal bravery. He could
not face shells and bullets, and was
compelled, when action was immi-
nent, always to remain in the back
ground, and trust to subordinates,
who habitually deceived him. Eu-
ropeans in Alexandria confirm this
story, which is supported by the ac-
count Of Arabls manifest tremor in
the meeting with Tewfk in the great
square, when the Khediyo had been
advised, as Arab probably knew, to
shoot him dead on the spot. Tho
defect is not without precedent among
leaders of men. Louis XIV. eve
could be induced to face cannon-balls.
Duplex, who 50 nearly conquered
South India, as Macaulay relates,
confessed that he could not face an
non, the noise impeding his genius
and Fantia Topee, the most tormida-
bic leader in the Indian Mutiny, a
MAJ with an astonishing power of
organisation, issued a general order
stating openly that he had arranged
everything, but was too timid to lead
his men. Var is a singular role for
a timid man to take up, but men OF
perfect passive courage, who yet can
not face shot, are not uncommon in
the East.
Thooxtraordinary range Of the de-
mands raised by the Italian "Irre-
donta" party is best shown by the
statements Of the official elements
OF Geography" published in 1877,
for the use of schools. In this
publication, scholars are informed
that Italy is now divided politi-
caIly into the Italian Kingdom,
the Republic of San Marino, the
Tyrol, and Istria, which are
part of Austria; Corsica and Nice,
which depend on France; the Ticino,
which is included in Switzerland;
and Malta, which depends on Eng
land. Trieste, it should be noted
has belonged to the Hapsburgs for
500 years; and Malta is not even
Italian by nationality, her people
being hybrids, who speak a dialect
of Arabic. The Irredentists would
show themselves better informed,
and quite as practical, if they clainl-
ed a more important island, namely,
Britain. There is no doubt that it
was an italian province once, and no
evidence that Rome ever surrendered
her claim. either by treaty or decree.

The plea SO often repeated by Paul
and Riddleberger, that Arthur is pow
erful ally on whose patronage 1t would
be wise to lean, is now altogether una
valuable. His own party is forsaking
him, and he is rapidly sinking into his
original obscurity. This Is the most
suspicious time the Democrats have en-.
joyed since the war, and If man IL a
Democrat in principle, now is the time
to stick. And if he has no principle,
and looks only to his own interest, we
should like to. know If this is now
most unfavorable hour to bolt. What
join the Republicans just as they are
about to be disorganized and defeated in
their stTongholds? Whoever heard Of
dese,tion to an enemy when he was re-
treating from n disast rOus campaigns?
Mahone knows we'll enough that the
Virginia Democrats will not be fooled
into losing game like this. 1t is for
this reason he is making so desperate an
effort to rally all the Republican nsgioes
to his standard, and has sent Langston
among them to undo what Dawson has
done. He knows lie eighty Thousand

But he will not gsf iil' N. Dawson has
