In olden times Annapolis for some

Providence so called by reason of
an exclamation made by those whom q
raging storm in the Chesapeake Bay
drove, while enjoying a sail on its
waters, to our shores Their safe es-
cape from watery grave they attribu-

not blessed, by Divine Providence.

calamities are daily Detailing many

following card for publication.
ANNAPOLIS, June 81, 1884
Mr.. Editor;
The impression which Mr.. Bannon,
with usual unscrupulousness, creates
in his note to the american this
morning, that | at any time called at
his Office to procure his assistance to
obtain an Office under the present
Board of County Commissioners of
this county, is utterly false, as have
been in Baltimore but once since last
September, and then did not see Mr..
Bannon, and never was at his Office
in my life. | never charged that he
had received check for $500 for lob
bying but did charge, on the au-
thority of Dr. Asa A. Linthicum,
republican member of the present
board, that check for $500 was
given by the board, or clerk of the
board to Mr.. Bannon, and that after
wards, when DR.. Linthicum threaten
ed to expose it, DR.. Linthicum after
wards found and saw that check
pinned behind the stub of check
book. That is the statement of DR..
Linthicum as made to me last Tues
day, and also repeated it the same day
to Mr.. Phil. III. Tuck, attorney-at-law
st. Paul street, Baltimore, and to him,
as a gentleman of the highest charac-
ter, | refer all inquirers for the truth.
AS to the assertion of Mr.. Bannon
he keeps law and not an intelligence
office, | suspect the public will much
doubt, whether he keeps law Office
at all, and will be disposed to believe
he has more intelligence on the sub
ject of $500 checks than he is willing
for the public to know.
W. G. Tuck, NJ. d.
Dr. Tuck has also written to DR..
Linthicum, stating on his authority
what he (Dr. Tuck had said, and ask
ing for corroboration.

Scarcity of Fish.

! For some days there has been a
very great scarcity of fish in our mar
ket-except in that species known as
the cat, eel, sun fish and yellow perch.
Some of our fishermen attribute it to
the heavy winds of past few days,
which drove the fish into deeper water,
where they cannot be reached bv
fishermen, while others say there is
generally scarcity of certain fishes at
this season of the year.

AS an outgrowth of the recent "un.
pleasant discoveries" in our County
Commissioners financial affairs, Mr..
M. Bannon is out in a card in the

commissioners. He says, 81 have
never received cent, nor do | ex-
pect to get one from the commits

Editor Of the Eceniag Capital:

Editor Of The Eceniag Capital:
Are you theologian enough to ex.
plain why that great moral precept
of Charity should not be first begun
and cultivated at home rather than be
dispensed abroad? Or, to put the
question in a more concise and less
abstract form, why is it that the print
ing and publication, in book form, of
the Maryland Reports are not done
in your own city, and by her own
printers, instead Of being done in Bal
timore Have not the various print
ing Offices in Annapolis all the neces-
sary plant and facilities for the pro.
per execution of such work? | am
told that the late Mr.. Bonsall, most
worthy craftsman of the "art preser-
vative," formerly did this work to the
fuU satisfaction of the then able re-
porter OF the Maryland Reports, and
now respected Judge (Oliver Miller.)
If, by propounding the above typo
graphic questions, | should be deem
ed as trenching upon the sacred pre-
cincts ofwhat may be fancied, by some,
as "other peoples business" beg to

purpose, for / am perfectly aware
that "what is every body's business
is no body's business" | submit.
however, that it is the duty bounden
upon each and every member of So
ciety or local community to contribute
his mite to its interest, progress and
advancement. If this be true in u
general sense, is it not equally true

thus briefly alluding to this matter,
desire to expressly disclaim any per
sonal reflection towards the present
courteous and able compiler of the
Maryland Reports The office, It's
true, is not political one, yet it does
partake of a quasi political character by
reason of the fact that the appoint
ment to the same is made by the ma
jority of a court elected by the suf-
frages of the people, and that, too COM
prising majority of the democracy
of our State. The character of the
work, herein referred to, emenates
from this city, and should be, | very
respectfully submit to all candid and
unbiased minds, done by our own
printers, if it can be satisfactorily
printed here. Those of our young
men, whose calling in life is, and has
been, dependent on the cease and

ment and encouragement ofthose who
have public or private printing to be
given out. They permanently reside
here; their labor, time, and means
are expepde here, and they are enti-
tied to receive a corresponding return.
Ii this work were done here their time
would be constantly employed, where
as, as it is, they are compelled, greatly
against their own wishes and inclina
tons, to remain idle a greater part of
the year. CIvIs.
Although we are not theologian
enough to answer the first question
propounded by our able correspondent,

other points suggested, and heartily
endorse the views therein expressed.
