The above figures may be somewhat
changed by removals, death and tranf-
ters, but the total is about correct.
When it is remembered that the vot-
ing population of the county in 1880
was 8,743 it will be seen that not
more than two-thirds Of the voters
have thus far been registered. Of
the 1900 who have not registered it is
probable many will not DO SO, as in
1880, when the number of males Of
81 in the county was 1852 and the
registry over 5000, only 6,692 votes
were cast for Congressman and only
6,397 for President. In 1878 tho vote
of the county was 5,277; 1879, 5,270;
1881. 1926. The registry to date is
greater than any Of these votes but
500 short of the vote of 1880, and
certainly nearly 5000 less than it
should be if all the voters were regis
tered. The shortage is largely in the
four city districts which show only
about four-ninths of the vote, when
they should have nearly two-thirds.

RESPON D e N G E
HOW THE FIELD LOOKS
From the Great Political Centre
of the Country.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 10, 1882.
To the MINING JOURNALS;
The remarkable verdict in the Star
Route case is yet the chief topic of
the day. The whole responsibility
for that shameless abortion is placed
upon Dickson, the foreman of the
jury. The failure of justice is attrib-
uted to his efforts, as he acted through
out ss if be was one Of the paid at
torneys for the defense, and the nine
others who voted for verdict of
guilty are entitled TO special credit for
the intelligent, consistent and indie
pendent manner in which they ac-
quilted themselves, for Dickson, be.
sides being their foreman, is man of
much Influence in the community.
He evidently doth protest too much,
and, regardless of his virtuous posing,
public opinion has set the seal of con-
demuation upon him, and in his case
thu verdict is unanimous.
The Maine election will be prolific
of results. 1t places the star of
Blaine again in the ascendant, and
makes him first choice of the republi-
cans for President in 1884. 1t strikes
a heavy blow at party coalition, un-
dertaken simply for the capture Of
spoils. It causes the breaking of
many states and makes necessary
much new f CURING as to the complex
ion OF the next Congress. But | pre-
sumo it will have little effect, upon
the congressional nomination in the
Sixth District of Maryland. The
fight there, on the one side, wakes
close and warm between Urner and
McComas, with Lowndes, Porter and
Hutchinson in armed neutrality in the
background, each awaiting the oppor-
tune moment when blow can be
struck for self and country. Urner's
flag still Asunts boldly in the front, but
little Mac is no vain carpet knight,
and for him
n as free shall wave
Clan-Alpine's pine in banner brave.
His stout adherents will have blows
to give as well as to take in the con-
test, and if finally his "crest be back
ward borne," it will not be done with
out mighty struggle.
On the democratic side it appears
the race will not be given to Blair
because OF o lack of competitors.
Nelson is being groomed in Freder-
lex, and Schley puts himself forward
in Allegany. Douglas will probably
be en- hand from Washington and

MINING JOURNAL.
FRoSTBURG, MD, SEPT. 23, 1882

OCCASIONALLY we hear OF an indi-
vidual claiming advancement to Off
cial station on the score Of brilliant
lineage. The claim, in fact, is set be-
fore the public in the nature OF a dun.
In the days of limited suffrage it had
effect, but as pretext for harvesting
votes in the wider popular field it is
an exploded dodge.
"Blood is thicker than water" and
in quality more variable perhaps, but
there can be little or no virtue in the
mere mechanism Of inheritance. I'm.
less the intellectual and moral excel
lencies of ancestry have been trans
mitted, it is difficult to discover in
our system a thesis which by the most
liberal study could be interpreted as
sndowing the descendants of great
people with special titles 10 popular
preferment. The advantages and dis
advantages Of birth are alike Fictitious
and fortuitous. A poor fellow might
Drag till doomsday of ancestral acres,
but it would amount to nothing on
change.
In these days, too, when "blood" is
founding its meretricious distinctions
upon "shoddy" and the accidents Of
fortune, the honors of descent fail to
stand investigation.
There are numerous instances, how
ever, where pride of lofty growth from
an humble origin may be not merely
pardoned but applaudsd. The man
rising from the depths of poverty to
honorable affluence and high station
by the native forces of intellectual de-
velopment is an aristocrat of that
highest class which includes "God
noblest work." Beside the decrepit
and decaying heir of proud name
and lineage he owns and enjoys the
current prestige of success. Of the
two he is or should be the choice Of
the people when looking for servants
best fitted for public duty and most
loyal to the popular welfare. He is
a practical philosopher he has ac.
quired the nobility of learning solidi-
fed by experience. The other by
standing in dead mems shoes pub
fishes the rational suspicion that the
ornament of knowledge which decora-
ted the lives and illustrated the
achievements of his fathers has been
lost TO the son, and that his preten-
sions are but the heraldry of glori-
GUS ignorance.

fed on good pasturage, enjoy the pref
erence, but there are not many to be
had in Pennsylvania. After these
Ohio stock is called for, and then
come Indiana beeves. Good Penn

Ohio cattle cost about the same at

Western cattle were not to be had for
less than 90 cents, and two months ago

TWIN COMETS Prof. E. e. Bar

near the star Lambda, in the constel-

was announced by telegraph to Mr.. H.
II. Warner, at the Warner Observa-
tory, Rochester N. Y, and almost at
the same moment Prof Lewis Smith,
Director of the Warner Observatory,
received intelligence that a large ma
ked eye comet had been discovered
in Rio Janeiro, South America. Prof,
Barnard is the first person the present
year to receive the Warner prize Of
5000. The fact that these two comets
came into view at the same time is
exceedingly significant.

The Drum.

OF the original use of the drum there
are rather discordant accounts; but q
very orthodox myth ascribes the in.
ventiOn of them TO time anterior even
to the reign of Jupiter. For it is said
that the Corybantes, when in charge
of the infant god, and wishing to con.
ceal him from the very unparental de-
signs of his father Saturn, improvised
some dra ms, and kept up such din
with them as often as the child cried
that the mUrderous parent was unable
to discover his whereabouts. Notwith.
standing this tale it does not appear
that the Corybantian instrument was
very early used in war, for there is no
mention of it in the Trojan expedition
or in any of the campaigns of later
Greeks al d Romans. The learned
are disposed to believe that it was
brought into Europe as q military in.
strument by the returning Crusaders,
IN the 18th or 18th century. But it
was clearly known long before in
Africa and Egypt, and as purely Or
chestral accompaniment in times of
peace it seems likely to have been
known to the Hebrews under the term
which in the English Scriptures is
rendered by tabor. The likeness of
the word to the modern French tam
bour is too obvious to escape notice;
but it is also very similar in sound to
the Kurdish tambar, said to mean q
guitar, to the Persian tambur, and to
our old English term, 'timbrel." The
Hindoo tom-tom is, perhaps, also con-
nected with 1t, and it has been argued
that all these words have a common
Aryan root, represented in our Ian
guage by the verb ''tap" This would
be supported by the view, in which
classical psychologists concur, that in
early times both the timbrels and
other larger instruments of the kind
were played by striking upon them
with the finger ends. In its original
shape the drum or tympanum wa
smaller even than a tambourine. It
was mere disc of parchment stretch
ed upon a small circlet of metal. The
addition of second surface with
hollow space intervening, and with
supporting sides of cylindrical form,
was of much later design, although
this part of the instrument has now
become almost as natural to the idea
of it as any other. The proof of this
is to be found in the metaphorical use
of the term as borrowed by engineers,
who have given the name by univer-
sal consent to the large hollow cylin-
ders round which rope or chain is
coiled.
The first time that drums are men
toned in the history of the English,
or, indeed, of any European armies,
seems to be at the time of the entry of
Edward III. into Calais, but it is not
clear from Froissart's account which
was the species then employed.

In a Strange Market.

The market for the harvest gathered
in the streets of New York is some
what dull at present, rs many of the
producers are out of town, resting by
the wayside and visiting farm houses.
The demadd is fair, and dealers expect a
llvelier business in the fall. The follow
ing are the latest quotation, the price
per pound being given in each case:
Old rubber overshoes and boots, 2
cents; broken glass, ] cent; hemp string,
3 cents; rags, 4 cents; paper, J to Il
cents; lead, 4 cents brass, cents;
copper, IL cents; old stoves pipes, /
cent nails, old kettles and all old iron,
cent; tin, 1 cent i; old boots and shoes,
t cent. The supply of tin is very
large, and the market is glutted.
"What is done with old tin ?"
wholesale dealer was asked.
sit is cast into SASH Weights"
"How is the market for old bones ?"
Fair, but quiet prices rather firm
now at 80 cents bushel. Bones is
nigh, I reckon, cause beef is high, but
