A Pertinent Suggestion.

Mr.. Editor AS every one seems to be
at sea with opinions of their own with re-
gard to the best course TO pursue with our
political affairs, will give you mine with
the view Of trying to harmonize all factions
for the better preservation of the principles
of Democracy as handed down to us by our
sires. | propose Bouic for Congress and
Peter for Judge, fully believing by that deal
we would have winning hand. So if
Bouic and Peter could be induced to run
for the positions as named all would be well,
for the Democracy of Montgomery would
chickering's have none and rally around them
to man with the certainty of redeeming the
the Sixth Congressional District as well as
elect solid Democratic Judiciary. Then
there will be no excuse to manipulate our
primaries, as some of our self-appointed
delegates and advisers wish to do, tor we all
would be together and could and would go
forth in brotherly love, converting Repub-
licans by the score, both black and white,
for our interests would be identical Over the
field then we would only have to walk, for
victory would be certain Therefore il is
hoped all Democrats, not only of this, but
of our sister counties, will lend their aid to
bring about this happy termination of our
factional differences

Keiters friends in the House, if he has
any, must have left Washington before ad-
journment, as no Republican was forthcom-
ing yesterday 10 offer the usual resolutions
congratulating the Speaker upon the able,
dignfed and impartial manner in which he
had, during this long session, presided over
the deliberations of the House. There have
been Speakers who lacked all these condi-
tons, and yet this usual compliment was
ungrudgingy paid them by friend and OPP
ponent alike; but this man Keifer has been
so thoroughly mean and contemplate, 50
far from being able or dignitied or impartial,
that those Republicans who contested the
honor with him in the Republican caucus
drew back from the responsibility of in
dorsing his welding OF the gayel, and even
his masters, Robson and Reed, refused to
thank him publicly for his subservency and
AFFECT surrender 10 basest partisanship.-
Anyhow Keller is saved the discredt of
having every Democratic vote recorded
against the passage OF such resolution,
for however willing Democrats have been
in the past to compliment Banks, Penning
ton, Grow, and even Blaine and "Smiler"
Coliax, no possible stretch of courtesy could
have induced them yesterday to even admit
by their silence that Gen. J. Warren Keifer
was in any particular, by nature, education
or habit, fitted to discharge the duties of
Speaker of the House of Representatives

The Sixth Maryland District.

The Washington Republican of the Sth
instant contained the following in regard to
the Republican nom ination for Congress in
this district;
at is reported that Hon. nj. G. Urner de-
clines TO be candidate for denomination for
Congress in the sixth Maryland district :,
which he has so ably represented in the last
two Congresses In consequence of such
determination on the part of Mr.. Urner,
many friends of Mr.. Haywood M. Hutchin-
son, Of Stka, Montgomery county, are urg-
ing him to become the Republican candi-
date from that district. II is understood
that Mr.. Hutchinson has consented, if NOM
mated, to make the race, and while the dis
trict is close one, there is no doubt of his
election by handsome majority should he
be favored with the nomination. Mr.. Hutch
inson was formerly for many years prom
inent and successful business man in Balti-
more In 1868 he visited the Pacific coast,
including Alaska, and while there negotiated
the purchase of the extensive interests of the
Hudson Bay Fur Company, which is now
managed, under authority of Congress, by
the Alaska Commercial Company, of which
Mr.. Hutchinson is a prominent stakeholder
and manager. Mr.. Hutchinson is well and
iavorably known TO all our leading citizens,
and probably has as large an acquaintance
with prominent public men as any person
in private life in the country Mr. Hutchin-
son has large property interests in WASH
ington, being the owner of several handsome
blocks in the northwest portion Of the city.
His residence for the past seven years has
been at Sitka, Montgomery county, Nd,
where he has one of the most attractive
farms of over six hundred acres in that sec
ton of the State and upon which he has
expended In its cultivation and improve
ment some $4,000. Mr.. Hutchinson is one
of the most progressive, liberal, hospitable,
enterprising and substantial citizens of Ma
ryland, and II chosen by the people of his
district as their representative, Congress will
contain no member who will command
greater respect in that body for sound judg-
ment, integrity, industry and general use
ILLNESS as practical and safe legislator II
is understood that Montgomery Blair is seek
ing the Democratic nomination for Congress
jn the same district"

From certain mysterious consultations
among some of the leaders of the Republican
party in our midst within the past few days
it is surmised that something of>importance
in party management is being concoctcd.-
Dame Rumor has it that something similar
to the mastery logrolling movement in
augurated at Diamond Hall some years ago
is on foot, and it may be necessary to call on
County Commissioner Smith to again come
forward and break up the would-be combi-
nation. Trading Il Judge for Congress
man might be very nice, but gentlemen who
make these bargains should be sure of their
ability to deliver the goods.

ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS.

All will admit that at last Congress has
done one good thing--it has adjourned
On the night of the Sd of March next it will
do yet better thing-it will dissolve Mean
while let the country be grateful for at least
the little intermission of repose afforded for
the few short months which intervene be-
tween the two sessions. 1t is true that we
are to undergo yet one more infic:ion Of
Republican session, but thanks to the inevi-
table which will bring around the 4th of
March in the due procession of the seasons,
it will be short, if we may not hope it to be
sweet.
CHANGING over its proceedings, which have
covered q period of more than eight months,
we find that jobbers have run riot, the an
nual expenditures have been increased $78,-
100000 over the sum appropriated last year,
and not single measure designed to i'm
prove the material condition Of the people
has been passed.
Early in the session both Houses, in a
spirit of political poltroonery sent the work
vi lhliu ACtiolOn W q WhiNht as
it has been constituted, commands no conf
dence except from those who profit by the
worst abuses of the existing system.
The railroad corporations have triumphed
in the completest way. The Regain bill, fol-
the regulation of Interstate commerce, is
dead, and SO, 100000 acres Of forfeited lands
remain in the hands Of the companies.
A new lease of life has been given to the
National banks.
The internal revenue system, with all Of
its odious features and its vast army of tax.
caters, remains undisturbed
Greeks and branches, with unpronouncea.
BILE names, located nobody knows where,
are TO be improved" and towns of tenth
rate importance are to be adorned with costly
public buildings; this is case of millions
for local politicians, but not one cent for the
common good.
Keller and Robson, the hides Of both OF
whom have been dashed until all feeling OF
sensibility has been completely numbed,
seemed TO have been the two great moral
ideas of the Republican party in formulat-
ing every species of corrupt Legislation
which has grown out of the recent session.
There has certainly never been Congress
since the foundation of the government in
which the prevailing majority has been so
gross, so undisguised, so interruptions as
that which has cursed the country for the
past eight months. II we cannot rejoice
that the Lord gave them, let us he thankful
that he has taken away-for at least o
season.

Probably the biggest game of match PEN
MES on record was played by two Phiadel-
phia stock brokers on Saturday. The game
was suggested in spirit of fun, to while
away the time, and was commenced with
pennies, To make it interesting" the play
ers soon substituted flve-cent pieces for PEN
mics, and then dollars for fivc-cent pieces.
In less than an hour one of the players had
lost $500 Then the winner gave his OPP
ponent three chances to double or quit,
which he accepted, losing $4,000. The
second chance increased the amount to &c.
900, and the third to $4,000, both of which
were lost

so hostile TO England that rupture Of the

but little harm. but she could get her own
share of the spoils in southeastern Europe

Ever since Mr.. Geo. Cotton, OF Baltimore,
was disappointed in not receiving the APP
pointment to the Presidency Of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal, he has been in a
bad humor and has taken occasion TO at
tack the majority of the Board Of Public
more AMERICAN His first attack was on
the Hon. Barnes Compton, but that gentle
man soon slenced him by plainly stating to
the public that his assertions were false in
every particular Having partially recov-
cred from his first defeat he last week took
occasion to attack Senator German through
the same paper. The editors of the Ameri-
can, no doubt wishing to create as much
disturbance in the Democratic party as pos
sibe, invited Senator German to use their
columns in reply. This he declined to do
in the following brief and pointed note for
which all well-meaning Democrats will give
him praise:

peared in the american rejecting on me,

assumption would not be creditable to the

Democrats who, with real or imaginary

that effort beg to inform you that no as
sault on me from such a source could make
