A RINulNG AKEAIGNMnNr.


From the Maryland Democratic riAttorm.
"Thc declaration Of the election Of

offices of president and vice president
Of the nitcd states was brought
about by frauds, couSUmmatcd under the
forms OF law and the methods used in

have been proved by the creatures who
did the evil work to have been, if possible
more discreditablc than those adopted by
their fellows in 1876.

Reform Is Necessary.

There were only 100 of the 200 mem.
bers of the House present at the session
yesterday, and at almost any time within
the past six weeks if the Republican
minority of that body had availed itself
OF the parliamentary privilege in which
the Democratic minority in the Senate
has INDUCED, for the purpose of breaking
u quorum, no business could have been
done. If the Democats of the House
think they are doing themselves any
credit or the cause Of their party any
good by remaining at Harrisburg in this
manner, they are utterly mistaken. It
IL true that the state convention of their
party cOunselled them TO insist upou
their position of demanding fair ap
porti0nment, but it did not contemplate
any such insstance as they make -oI
fail To make-when they meet with le
