Annapolis Improvements.

The Local Improvement Associa.
ton, recently organized, is making
good progress, says a corres pondent
to the Baltimore Sun, in its efforts to
improve the city of Annapolis. The
committees to whom the preliminary
work has been intrusted have been
selected with special reference to the
fitness of the members on the particu-
lar subject, especially in the drainage
of the streets, which is considered of
great Importance in connection with
the improvement of our city. They
will make thorough examination of
the subject and report on the best
methods to persue in the matter
Market Space, facing the harbor, is
the objective spot for an attractive
park and public fountain. We
would suggest to the artistic commit
tee, the 1at-iron corner of Main and
Francis streets, where stands the
store occupied by Mr.. James Hop
kins, as most suitable place for the
DeKalb statue-devoting the rest Of
the space TO a miniature park. A
special line of Improvements has
been set out and plans laid by which
one particular branch of industry is
not to conflict with another. The
first move will be to beautify and
adorn the streets and residences.
which is considered a good first step
towards the success Of the movement.
{ And here, we would also suggest that
their first attention be directed to the
antique structure on Main street adj
joining the store of Ridout Bro. J
The trades interest will be looked
after later.
The association has in contempla
tion several objects which they expect
will be of great advantage to their
organization and of special benefit to
the city. 1t is proposed to have an
establishment in Annapolis of a sig
nal service station, than which bet
ter site of correct observation could
not be selected. The establishment of
a public road running along the beach
from Annapolis to Bay Ridge, dis
tance of about FIVE miles. is suggested
as one of the improvements that will
be looked after. An initiation fee of
81 is charged, or its equivalent, (the
planting of shade tree) Twenty
five dollars cash or thirty dollars
paid in three annual installments
entities member to life membership.
At the last meeting of the association
about 800 was subscribed in life
memberships.

Last evening, at Saint Mary's
Catholic Church, in this city, Rev.
Father A. j. McInerney, in speaking
of the innumerable graces that are
bestowed upon the faithful through
the intercession of the Blessed Moth
er with her Divine Son, made some
very practical, timely and wholesome
suggestions in the matter of cultivat-
ing and encouraging home piety.
How much more pleasant, he said,
would it not be if parents and the
heads of families were to gather tho
members of their household around
the family hearthstone in the evening
before retiring tt their nightly slum-
bers and have them all unite in fam
lily prayer? that it certainly would
result in wedding out all feelings of
epstrangement that may unfortunate-
ly exist, and would tend to create
and cement, the more strongly, those
natural family ties of affection and
kindness that should predominant in
every household. "For," said he,
eve have the promise of the Author
OF unerring Truth, who cannot falsify,
that where two or three are gathered
together in my name, am in the
midst of them"

THE NAVAL ACADEMY.
BY ?. T. K.

Were ! TO seek some cool retreat
TO while life S cares away,
Or crystal tide, whereon to glide,
At closeof Summers day,
Or place at best, where in to rest,
And weary never be,
ne 'er would stray, or go away,
From tlle~Naval Academy.
Or let me launch my bark upon
That sparkling silvery tide,
And steer it out far on the main
Upon the Ocean wide,
Then may roam, its crested foam,
And roam increasingly,
Ere / could trace more beauteous place
Than the Naval Academy.
Its pleasant lawns and dewy bawns,
It's smiling hooks and shades,
Its Ginning bells and fiowery dells,
Where sunshine never faces.
It's shady groves, wherein true loves
Can WOO externally,
Are one and all the place / call
The Naval Academy.
Its stately towers and elysium bowers,
The crowning source of ease;
Oh what would more, now implore,
The ruffled mind appease,
Than seated there to inhale the air,
That's waited lnystic'lly,
From out the bowers the dells and flowers
OF the Naval Academy.
And ladies fair, with graceful air,
Betokening modesty,
Are seen each day both blithe and gay,
To skip along in glee,
Their sylph-like forms, and attractive
charms,
oh would artistic'ly,
That | could state, or delineate, j.
In the Naval Academy.
And men of fame, of wit and name,
From out its halls deploy,
OF science lore and mental store,
They are the nations Joy,
For they uphold, with courage bold,
That Flag triumphantly,
Which floats each day with uncheckered
sway,
In the Naval Academy.
Crystal waters lave its banks,
And wander gently by,
In sweet repose, the Severn flows,
To meet its destiny!
And void of force, ii pursues its course,
Yet still majestic'ly;
Not another place can its waters grace,
As the Naval Academy.
Oh would the muse, my pen infuse,
A nobler strain to breathe,
And clrcling DER my vital core,
Surround it with a wreath,
And then proclaim in words of fame,
And announce il publicly,
That II Is the boast, the pride and toast,
OF this glorious country.

False Alarm.

Some little excitement was ocea,
stoned yesterday morning by smoke
issuing from the grocery store of Mr..
w. II. Taylor on Market Space, which
led some to believe the store to be on
FIRE 1t appears that Mr.. Taylor aud
his brother had occasion to go into
the store for some purpose, and OBJ
serving the place filed with flies, pro-
ceeded to exterminate them bv way
of smoking them out with damp gun
powder This new y-exterminator
naturally filed the store with smoke
which made its escape though the
windows and crevices of the door,
which caused the alarm.
Mr.. Taylor was very much amused
when informed by half breathless
youth that his store was on fire. He
FASTENED, however, to the spot only
to find that it was "all smoke but no
fire.

noon by the Rev. w. G. Herbert pas

Mr.. Herbert opened the meeting with
prayer, followed by that inspiring old
Methodist hymn: "A Charge to keep

some eloquent remarks upon the free
gift of salvation, showing the great
Importance of sinners coming to
Christ, and the dangers of delays.
After Mr.. Herbert's remarks. the
Rev. Mr. Tyler, a local preacher of
Baltimore, was then introduced. who
addressed the large assembly in for
cible and pathetic manner, drawing
many striking illustrations of the sin.

The taxpayers of Anne Arundel
county have been, heretofore, levied
upon, and that, too, at time when
they were crying aloud to be relieved
from the then, as well as the present,
onerous taxation which they were
made to shoulder, to the tune of forty
thousand dollars for the especial pur-

The Men who want "a Change"

IF. D. ST." in Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
When he is met as he hesitating.y pursues his
way to the polls, bearing a ticket with the
name of the ex-Buffalo hangman, with the state
ment that "a change is desired" let him con-
slider the experiences of some others that have
desired change.
The frogs had log for King, and desired a
change-and they got stork, that gobbled up
half dozen of them at a meal.
Even Lucifer, child of the morning, high in
Paradise, desired change, and Adam in Eden
desired a change. They both got it. In the
case of Lucifer, he was tailed and hoofed and
cast headlong from the battlements of heaven
down into the Internal regions there to COOK
and simmer to all eternity along with his fellow
Democratic rebels against q good government
As for ADAM he was forced, after the investi-
CATION was held, to resign his sinecure position
of park commissioner, and hire out as a day
laborer.
Why jeff Davis once desired change and
before he was done he got several of them
among them a change of clothing from panta-
looms to petticoats
The Democrat is dyed in the wool, and will
vote his ticket straight, but if these few sug-
gestiOns to the white-souled independents shall
cause even one death bed repentance, prevent
one sinner from going hopelessy astray, pluck
one brand from the burning, or scare one mug
wump from making final ass of himself, they
will not have been made In vain and the space
devoted to them will have been we'll employed

Starch Manufacture.

To the Editor of Il lr indianapolis journal:
Has it ever appeared to the manufacturers of
starch the effect that free trade would have on
their business, or in other words to remove the
tariff on starchS There is at this time duty of
ten cents per pound potato starch. Suppose
now from Democratic standpoint that duty of
ten cents was removed, what would be the re
sutl 1t would put every farmer in Europe to
making potato starch. 1t requires but little
capital to make potato starch, and what would
be the RESULT Why, they would flood this
country with their starch, made. by cheap
labor and the mere nominal sum of money in
vested to manufacture it and the removal of the
tariff. 1t does appear to that any manufacturer
of corn starch with two ideas of common sense
can see the great injury that will result to his
business. To make potato starch, all the ma
chinery that is required is a crusher, press and
small bolt or screen to remove the offal. Put
your starch on a board and place it in the sun TO
dry Whereas, to make corn starch in this
country it requires an investment from
$50, 900 to 5000, 900 for the plant alone.
1t does appear plain to me that the removal
of the duty on starch a term would cause an in
calculable injury to the manufacturer, that l do
not feel that it is necessary to go into further
details of the business. 1t is my firm conviction
that the removal of the duty on potato starch
will cause the suspension of every corn starch
mandatory in the United States. unless they
can get corn at about half the price for which
they have been paying, and labor on the same
ratio of one half in order to make cheap starch
to compete in the markets with potato starch.
Are the farmers that raise corn prepared for
this changel Large quantities of the surplus
corn of this State is manufactured into starch.
If theistarch works to be stopped, what will
they do with their cornl 1t can't be worked into
whisky for there is now an overproduction of
that useful article
If 1 had the time / would like to go into
fuller detail OF this starch business, but l think
the above points sufficient to call the atten-
ton of the manufacturers of corn starch to that
that is vital to their interest in this campaign.
If they are prepared to lay corn starch down in
New York for one and half cents per pound in
order to comDete with potato starch, why let
them vote ank work against protection of Amer

ready for this step in the dark just yet
