Scoville has issued card to the Amer
ican people, saying: Under the circum-
stances I don't feel called upon as mat
ter Of interest alone to give an addition
al two months to the mo-
tion for q new trial for Gui-
teau before the court in banc. If my
fellow citizens, few or many. think the
interests Of justice or the cause Of hu-
man,ty and the country require the con-
test to be prolonged, and that no effort
be spared to secure verdict and judg-
ment after passion shall have subsided
in the public mind, let them manifest by
providing means and counsel will be se-
cured at once. I ask nothing for myself
up to this time, but I cannot give my
own services hereafter without compen-
sation. At least $1,000 is needed. Should
Q sufficient amount not be received the
money will be refunded on request.
The final work of the delegation from
North Dakota, so far as the congressional
committees are concerned, was conclud-
ed Saturday. A committee Of the dele
CATION. consisting Of Lounsberry, Of Bur-
leigh; Walsh, Of Grand Forks; McCon-
nell, of Cass. and Mead, Of Morton, ap.
peared before the full committee Of the
house aud submitted comparative
statement Of the groyth and resources
Of the proposed new territory. The
statement, which had been carefully pre-.
pared by the committee above named.
was read by Colonel Lounsberry, and the
congressional committee united in ex-
pressing their satisfaction with the very
full and complete statement. Lounsberry
was followed by Judge Moody, Of the
Black Hills, who gave to the committee
the reasons why southern Dakota was
demanding admission to the union.
Following the statements by the gentle
men fromD Dakota. the house sub. commit.
tee announced that they were ready to
report on the bill asking for division,
but as tho time of the committee bad
been all consumed by the Dakota gen.
tlemen, the chairman suggested that il
would be wise to postpone hearing and
discussing the report of the sui. commit.
tee until next Tuesday. 1t is IN open
secret that the subcommittee will re-
port unanimously in favor of the division
bill. and if the entire committee adopt
this report it is probable that it will be
pushed vigorously and pass the house
within ten days. The chairman of the
committee on territories, however, (Bur.
rows, Of Michigan), is understood to be
opposed to pressing the division bill, as
he. 10 confident ttat the bill for the ad
mission will pass, and that thus the
wishes of both delegations will be con
summated. The democratic members Of
the house will probably present an un
broken front to the admission bill, while
the friends OF division will have consid
erable aid from the democratic side ol
the house. Even that chronic demo
cratic objector, Holman, of Indiana, j,
understood to favor the division Of til,

The Governors Message.

The biennial message Of the Governor
to the Legislature was read in both houses
of the Assembly on Thursday last. The
message is similar in its tone and charac
ter to the first executive communication of
Gov. Hamilton of two years ago. though
it is rather more lengthy and prolix. The
Governor discourses in an earnest and lu-
cid manner upon the many reforms, which
in his judgement, should be made in the
manner of conducting our State govern
ment, in order to reduce it to proper prin-
ciples of honest and economical public
service.
The Governor makes about forty distinct re-
concentrations In addition TO giving his
general views on the financial policy of the
State looking to the maintenance of the invo-
liability of the sinking fund, 10 the practice OF
sttrenchant economy by the Legislature and
management TO avoid treasury deficit now
said to be impending, the Governor makes the
following suggestions:
To reduce the number to tax collectors in
the State from "a to "a.
To make tax collectors defalcaton a crim-
nal offense.
To appoint non-paid commission to revise
the tax collection system and to report TO the
next General Assembly.
To reduce the FISH commissioners from two
to one.
To stop paying the secretary of the Senate
81 900 year for recording vital statistics.
To abolish the office of tax commissioner and
salary of 81, 500, with $500 for travelling ex-
penses.
To abolish the office of insurance commits
sioner, who is paid by fees.
To abolish the Office Of commissioner Of the
land office (salaty ST. ,500) and restore the re-
cords to the custody of the clerk of the Court
of Appeals.
To abolish the weig hers of grain and ay and
lease the scales.
To reduce legislative expenses and the num-
Der of employees.
To stop paying extra compensation to clerks
and employees.
To have all bills, &c. perfected and signed
by the Executive and officers of the Legislature
before Adjournment.
To economic in the matter of printing.
To repeal the act authorizing the publication
Of the laws in newspapers.
To dissolve the oyster navy, sell the old
steamer, or substitute for it a swift tug or from
four to six steamers, and sell or transfer the
eight sloops to the counties interested in pro-
tectiDg their own oyster preserves.
For Maryland and Virginia oyster law for
the Potomac river.
To modify the Maryland oyster dredging and
longing laws.
To put stamp tax, per gallon or bushel, on
Maryland dredged oysters.
To abolish the present compulsory feature
of Maryland tobacco inspection by State OFF,
GERS.
To reduce to number OF directors Of the
House of Correction from - to or 7, to serve
for two years and be appointed by the Gov
ernor.
To secure an equitable distribution Of taxes
between mortgage debt and real estate.
So stop the contingent fund of the Executive

lection of this admirable system of inspec-
ton, which it has required so many years
to build up, and such result will never
be accomplished except by gross treason
to their interests.
We hope to live to SEE the day when
every pound of tobacco grown in this
county will be manufactured within its
limits, or at least within the States, and
when the necessity OF Intermediary inspec-
ton will be thus forever dispensed with
and the immense profits that now go to en-
rich these sharks who SO persistently an
tagonize our interests, will be retained
at home to build up our ma
terial interests and internal wealth
The present tendency to introduce manu-
featuring industries in the agricultural
South points unerringly to the ultimate
attainment Of that most desirable end
but until this shall be accomplished let us
hold on to the protection to our interest:
afforded by the State system of inspection

Concerning Mass-Meeting.

Since puttsng our suggestions as to ac-
ton by our people upon the tobacco in
spection question in shape for the print
ers, we have received letter from high
ly esteemed and public spirited subscriber
from which the following IS an extract:
"Since the control of our countys affairs
passed into the hands of the Republican
party, the tax paying and reputable citi
zens of the county have been practically
without representation in the States As
sembly. The present members were sent
there by the negroes, and it would be i'm
possibly to get them to advocate or in
troduce any measure that would, by any
possibility, hurt them with that element
of our population. Now there are many
measures of importance, which the people
Of the county would like to see pushed
we want a new and better Road Law, a
Dog Law and several other laws of very
great importance and benefit, and we will
continue to want them, if We wait for the
Charles county delegation to get them
through. Now, l suggest this: Let the
State Central Committee tor Charles call
meeting of Democratic voters, and Iet
that meeting select two or three represen
tative citizens to go to Annapolis and
bring to the notice of the Legislature such
measures as are desired and required by
the tax payers of the county. The Dem
ocrats in the Legislature are in the major
ity, and will listen to the wishes of the
Democrats of Charles"
| We cordially endorse the suggestions OF
oar correspondent, and will be pleased to
hear the views of the Democratic Central
Committee and the people upon
the question. The great need
of some proper notifications of the
present onorous road system, the results
of which are not 10y any meaus common
surate with the great expenditure it ne
itself to the more thoughtful of our people.
| The great vantageS Of proper dog law

of sheep hushandry, was extensively dis
cussed in these columns two years ago.
and petitions extensively signed, asking
an enactment Of such measure. were sent

| This measure has been recent much agi-
tated in nearly all the States VIII re sheep
husbandry is carried on, and has been cx
tensively legislatcd upon. OF course, as
nearly every negro owns a worthless cur,
We could not expect their representatives
in the Legislature to advocate any such
law, and the method suggested tby oV
correspondent is the only way Of securing
any action upon it. In addition to these
there are many other measures, such a
the tobacco inspection question, of which
we have spoken elsewhere; the providing
for punishment of trespassers upon real
property the reviving of the bounty up
on hawks, and probably upon crows, and
many other measures too numerous TO
mention. The claims of our immigration
Society could also at the same time be pre-
sented. Let such a meeting be by all
means called IN the near future.
