The balloting for United State, Sena-
tor to succeed Senator Groome began in
the General Assembly on Tuesday. By
law it is required that at least one ballot
should be tax en- daily until Senator shall
be chosen. By virtue of a compact be-
tween the Western and Eastern Shores of
the State, which has been embodied into
a statute, the representation of the State
in the U. s. Senate must consist of one
Senator from each Of the Shores By
virtue of this compact the Senator now to
be chosen must come from the Eastern
Shore. The most prominent gentlemen
among those receiving ballots on Tuesday
were Hon. James B. Groome, the present
incumbent; Judge John M. Robinson, of
the Court OF Appeals; Judge Wilson, and
Hon. Philip Francis Thomas. Judge Ro-
binson has led thus far in the balloting,
aud an impression prevails that he will be
the successful man. He is an able lawyer
and a staunch Democrat, though of the
independent ype. The statute making
territorial division Of the two peninsulars
of the State iuto Senatorial districts has
not always been observed, having been on
one occasion at least dispensed with by
the Legislature and both Senators elected
from the "Western Shore" Much dissat-
isfaction is expressed with this rule, which
seems to be peculiar to the State of Mary
land. Should the delegates and Senators
from the Eastern Shore continue to be as
much divided on the different candidates
AS at present. and fail to consolidate upon
some one man, it is not improbable that
the rule may be dispensed with at the pre-
sent session and the Senator taken from
the Western Shore.

The bill recently Introduced to regulate
the verdict of juries provides that judge
on application of counsel may require the
jury in addition to a general verdict to
find in writing any fact or facts material
to the issue. If the court finds the gener-
al verdict inconsistent with the facts so
specially found, judgment is to be entered,
notwithstanding the general verdict, in
accordance with the special finding.

To such as pretend to believe that the
motives which have actuated the TINES in
is efforts to correct the grave Irregular
ties which have taken place about the COM
missioners Office, were those of political
prejudice or personal vindictiveness, we
commend the following axiom laid down
by Hallam, the constitutional historian, as
containing an exact explanation of our
action in this matter:
"It is difficult to name limit beyond which
taxes will not be borne without iMpatience
when they appear to be called for by necessity
and faithfully applied nor is it impracticable
for skillful minister 10 deceive the people in
both these respects. But the sting of tn xation
is wastefulness. What hieh-spirited man could
see without indignation the earnings of his la
Dor, yielded ungrudRingly to the public de-
Tense. become the spoil of parasites and pecula-
tors? 1t is this that mortifes the liberal hand
Of public spirit and those statesmen who deem
the security of government to depend not on
laws and armies, but on the moral sympathies
and prejudices of the people, will vigilantly
guard against even the suspicion OF prodigali-
ty"
Thus it will be seen that if our action
looking to the closing up of the doors to
frauds and irregularities about the tax Of
fee has worked such a vexatious privation
upon those whom it will affect as to a.
mouot TO Reinstatement" it has not been
as has been denominated, an "unmerciful
chastisement; )" but chastisement actual
ed by such motives as have been recogniz-
ed and commended by honorable men OF
all ages and countries, and has been tenn
pered by mercy all the way through.

Works ufa Minister,

A minister in Cleveland rode to church
last Sabbath on bicycle. AS he swept
up to the sacred edifice large New
foundland dog, belonging to the senior
deacon, came numbering out to greet the
pastor. The bicycle struck the canine
on the head under full head of steam,
and run him down with shock that
could be plainly felt with the naked eye.
Tie reverend took header, and jammed
his high silk hat down over his ears so
tight that he had to crawl clear through
it to get out of it. The scattered leaves
OF q seven-head sermon flew around the
avenue like theological snowstorm
The dog made Rome howl with his walls
and attracted q crowd of 30Opeople. The
parsons coat was split down the back
and his trousers ripped across the knees
He pinned up the knees. and he had to
wear a pepper and salt sack coat the
sexton loaned him. When he appeared
IN the pulpit in this garb the conerega
tion smiled, and when he announced bis

the priests had not repaired the
breaches" there wasn't dry eye in
the conventicle. And now the question
before the church is: "Should the pastor
ride bicycle to church. or has the
deacon christian right to own dog?'
