A decision was rendered by the Supreme
Court Of the United States on Monday, in
the case of Turner against the State OF
Maryland, which settles the long disputed
question as to the constitutionaiity of the
tobacco inspection laws of this State
The Supreme Court holds that the previ-
the act of 1870. which require that to-
bacco raised I'm this State shall not be
transported therefrom except in hogsheads
which have been inspected and stamped
by State officers appointed for the pur-
pose, are not rcpugnant to the constitution
of the United States Nor is the provi-
sion which permits the grower to pack
his tobacco in hogsheads, to brand his
name thereon, and to send it out of the
State on payment of the same fees for out
age and storage as in other cases, such a
discrimination between different classes
of exporters as renders the act invalid -
The judgment of the Court of Appeals of
Maryland, from which the case WIS ap-
pealed, was affirmed.
We publish elsewhere synopsis the
opinion in the case delivered by Mr. JUS
tice Blatchford, as taken from the Balti-
more Sun. The contest in this case vas
really made by the B. & @. r. r. company,
which was anxious to have a final adiu-
dication of the question, Mr.. Turner con-
senting to be made the nominal appel ant
in the case, and the costs will, of course,
be borne by that corporation.

The letter of Secretary of Treasury Fol-
ger, laid before the House of Representa-
tives last week, in reference to the i'm
mensc accumulation of silver coin, which
the government is helpless to put in cir
culation, ought to be sufficient to convince
the most obdurate that it is time to dis
continue the coinage Of silver. In the last
four years It has cost the government over
81, 105, 900 merely to build vaults to store
its surplus silver; $s,26s of this amount
was expended to build q vault in the SUD-
treasury at Baltimore, and this vault and
the others which have been built at New
York, San Francisco and Philadelphia are
filled to their utmost capacity. Thirty
Eve hundred tons of silver, more than
$4,000, 900, is now on hand, and it does
not seem that any method can be devised
to get rid of it, unless the plan pointed
out in petition which was presented in
the Senate some years age by Mr.. Howe
now the Postmaster Genera, he followed
The petition, which came from Iowa,
asked that there be paid out from the treas
ury dollar week to every man, woman
and child in the country. The adoption
of this plan would empty the treasury OF
all its silver in about three weeks, and it
would be just as sensible as to continue
silver coinage

There was loud applause in the House
last week, when the item in the tariff bill
placing duty of ten per cent. on "sul-
plate and 81 Is of quiaia and cinchonida'
was struck out by vote of 10S to 81, and
the applause outside of the House, all over
the United States, will doubtless be great
er when the action of the House is heard
of. The estimated consumption of quinine
in the United States is 100000 ounces,
and the vote of Wednesday, if the Senate
concur, will save the sick of the country,
poor and rich, the handsome sum of ST.
100000. Mr.. McKenzies joke that tax
on quinine was doubtless intended ito en-
courage the manufacture of bone dust in
graveyards" was rather raw, but still not
far from the truth. The disgust with
which the people begin to regard the do
ings of high protectionits 'for protection
only" is, in view of this effort to tax drugs
like quinine, not so difficult to under
stand.

Hon James G. Blaine is stated by several
Washington correspondents to have re-
ceived the news OF Senator WINDOWS de-
feat for reelection with much satisfaction
despite the fact that they Lad been col
leagues in the Garfield administration. 1t
is said that three years ago Mr.. Conkling
completely turned Mr.. WINDOWS head by
suggesting him as being in the category
of presidential candidates. Mr.. Window
took the hint, and had solid delegation
in his favor sent from Minnesota to the
republican national convention. But for
this Mr.. Blaine would have received the
Minnesota vote, and in all probability the
nomination. For this Mr.. Blaine is said
to enjoy Mr.. WINDOWS recent defeat
hugely.

Col. c. R. Hogan, the well known pro-
prietor of the Maltby House, in Baltimore
died on Friday morning last, aged 50
years. He had been confined to his bad for
several weeks with muscular rheumatism
and pneumonia. Within few days past
he was evidently improving, and but q
few minutes before his death he appeared
quite cheerful, having removed his bed a
moment before be was seized with a sud
den faintness of the heart and died fifteen
minutes later. Col. Hogan was born in
county Clare, Ireland and went to Balti-
more when a boy. During his younger
days he held positions in several hotels in
Baltimore, and fifteen years ago became
proprietor of the Maltby House. He had
u larger circle of friends and acquaintance
throughout the State than any hotel man
in Baltimore. His kind and genial man
ner endeared him to all whom he met He
will be missed by the many patrons of that
popular hotel, tke,Maltby House

About this time, at each recurring sea-
son. there comes to Us reports of disastrous
floods on all our great rivers running ,hro'
States that are subject to heavy SHOWS or
tina. have their rise in mountainous re-
gions. The area of the floods has been
more widely extended this year than u.s.
ual, and while the loss of life thus far has
been quite small, the damage to property
has been very great. The States that have
suffered most by these early spring floods
have been western Pennsylvania and Ohio
which have sustained loss of property
valued at millions of dollars At Cleve-
land, by the food in the Cuyahoga valley,
the losses of the Standard Oil Company,
the lumbermen, the owners of -four, iron
aud planning mills, and railroad compa-
MES from damage done to ,the tracks and
bridges, are estimated at not less than a
million and a half of dollars. Youngs-
town, Akron, MeaGvillc and several small
er towns hove each suffered damage rang
ing in amounts from fifty thousand to q
hundred thousand dollars. Pittsburg and
Allegheny City are both partially sub
merged, and the damage there and along
the Allegheny river is put at not less than
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
Tiffin, Ohio, reports losses in that county
to the extent of hundred thousand dol
lars. Minor losses are reported from many
quarters. In Maryland, the melting snow
passed off quietly, although the ice gorge
in the Susquehanna creates some uneasi-
ness. All through the West we hear oil
impediments to railroad travel from the
"wash-outs" and broken or unsafe bridges
and while the floods have been working
havoc in the States we have mentioned
and have done some damage in Indiana
the great snow storms OF last week in
Wisconsin, Dakota and southern Minneso-
Ia and Iowa were suspending railroad
travel from Wisconsin to nearly all points
in the northwest for nearly a week, while
the greater part of the telegraph and rail-
rta I'D lines were broken down by weight
of the icicles hanging from shem.-Sua.
