ftics-ProtractedM Meeting.
Mr.. EDITOR: The Democratic meeting at
Havre de Grace on Monday night, under the
was attended by large. attentive and enthus-
astic audience, comprising citizens OF Havre de
Grace and vicinity. The speakers were Hon.
George Cotton and Thos. G. Weeks Their
speeches were patriotic, able and eloquent and
did not seem to indicate purpose on the part OF
the Democratic party to break up our country,
as it was asserted by Mr.. Warburton, at Level,
one day last week, that they would do If they
ment in their hands. The addresses were not
calculated to stir up sectional luminosity nor
to array one part of the country against the other

to Indiana, would be needed between Maine
and Illinois. We think the chief pall-bearers
will be BENJAMIN +; Butler, Stephen, Elkins.
others. What host of mourners there will be
1t is a singular fact that the Republican speakers
in this county, as far as your correspondent has
charges made against the Plumed Knight by the
independent press of the country. They speak
of his gigantic mind, of his matchless eoquence,
indeed, l head one speaker assert that he had
more eloquence than all the Democratic speakers
combined. but do not try to defend him against
these dreadful assaults of the enemy. Why is it?
Have they defenseless case?
The Democrats of the second district are look
ing forth to glorious victory on the fourth of
November. We may be disappointed, but If we
are we will have the satisfaction of having voted
for an honest man.
Mr.. Philip Gallon, of the Level, had the top

running into rope which was stretched across a
street in Havre de Grace, where some excavation
had been made. He talks of trying to recover

Sunday school Entertainment.


The annual entertainment and celebration of
the Sabbath School connected with McKepdree
M. E. Church, West Hartford Circuit, held on SAT-
preciative audience. The exercises were con-
Quoted by Rev. G. l.. Cuddy, Junior pastor of the
circuit. who requested Rev. Mr.. Todd, of Bethel
Presbyterian Church, to load in prayer, after
which came defamation, dialogues, &C., which
were almost, without exception, well selected
and rendered. Perhaps the most Instructive and
affecting piece was that entitled "A Representa-
ton of Christ as the Door of Salvation" partci-
and Illustrated by suitable notices aud emblems.
This produced profound and we hope, lasting
impression for good. The dialogue called 1.-The
Little Travellers" was also exceedingly beauti-
full and well received. During the progress of
the exercises Rev. Messrs. Todd and Cuddy de-
livered brief but appropriate addresses. AT the
close came the entertainment, and distribution
Of reward books, followed by the benediction,
which ended this most enjoyable occasion. The
instrumental music, which was excellent was
given by Mr.. r. w. Elliott, of Vernon M. E.
Church, Baltimore county.

The Sun notes as q curious feature of the
recent Ohio canvass that the indifference of
the wool-growers to the doctrine of high
tariff on wool. In the twenty-four counties
which contain the larger portion of the sheep
owned in the State, the Democratic majority
of 2,510 in 1880 increased to 1901 in 1884. In
the twelve Democratic counties the Demo-
cratic majority was 1,06s greater in 1884 than
in 1880, while in the twelve Republican sheep
growing counties the gain in 1884 over the
vote of 1880 was but 450. Prolectionists
have not, therefore, it wonld apperr been
able TO pull the Ohio farmers wool over his
own eyes.

Hartford is but small part of the country and
the prosperity that covers Hartford county does
not cover the people Of the United States. We
may be happy, but how Is it with the people who
have been turned out of work? The country
can not be prosperous when part of it is covered
with silk and broadcloth and beneath is a part
covered with disease and rags.
Mr.. Archer argued that tariff is necessary 10
provide for the expenses of the government, but
that 1t should be raised on the rich mans luxu-
ries, not on the poor mans necessities. The tar
iR, he continued, should be readjusted in the in
terest of those least able to pay tax of that
kind.
The Republicans ask you to give them credit
for piling up millions in the Treasury, Are there
any stealings from that Treasury Every in
vestigation made in any department has found
that department corrupt and the peoples money
taken; Yet they ask you to keep them in power.
The Star Route frauds, the Credit Mobilier infa-

at Washington that even a Republican Congress
don't dare to vote against Il resolution of censure.
Mr.. Archer showed that the Democratic party,
since the war, had been the friend of the soldier
and had stood up for his right to pension under

The Republicans say that the Democratic party
is corpse. IL has never been corpse. 1t has
lived from the foundation of the government. 1t
IS the friend of the people. and when the Demo-
cratic party dies the Republic is dead.
We in this State have little to fear to the re-
suit here. but we must see that the Democratic
lustre the shield of this State shall not be even
dimmed by a reduced majority.

All Democrats should be on their guard,
next Tuesday, and see that their candidate
for Congress, Hon. Frank T. Shaw, gets the

The spectacle, presented in New York
on Wednesday, of James G. Blaine, arrayed
in broadcloth of clerical cut, and with white
neck-tie, posing before an assemblage of
Republican ministers fthe gospel, must have
been ludicrous one In his attitude and
bearing he doubtless reminded some of his
observers of sick duck in thunder storm.
Mr. Blaineis certainly the Harlequin in poll
tics. His transformations are rapid and
wonderful.

throw his vote away on that arrant blather-

been shown conclusively by Gen. Parsons,
the head of the labor movement in Baltimore,
that Butler is not running in the interest of
the labor unions, but that he is the paid agent
of Blaine, and that vote for Butler will
simply be vote for Blaine the tool of the

Mr.. EDITOR: VIII you please inform us
whether the Democracy OF old Halls Cross Roads

keep us from sending Cleveland, Hendricks and

A Good Meeting Ina Bel Atr-Sp eeches by
Hon. Stevenson Archer and Others
The meeting of the Cleveland and Hendricks
Club Of Bel Air district, on Monday night, was
largely attended Col. Herman Stump presided.
Addresses were made by Messrs. Thos H. Rob-
inson, VIM. Young, Hon. Stevenson Archer and
j. T. G. Hopkins.
Mr.. Archer was greeted with tumult of ap-
plause, and his speech was one of the most eff
fective ever made by him in the Court House. He
thanked the large audience for the warm greet
ing they gave him, which, he said, gave him
pleasure not only as an evidence of kindly feel
ing towards himself but because 1t was given to
him for the reason that it is known that he sup
ports the principles of the Democratic party.
Mr.. Archer spoke IF the bright prospect of
Democratic success next Tuesday and said
Ought they to come into powerf is the question
every citizen should ask himself. The great
claim the Republican party makes is that it is the
friend of the labornR man, because 1t advocates

tect-the aborng man or the manufactured 1t
protects the manufacturer not the masses of the
people. No better pI oof of this can be adduced

this country is Republican and in favor of
protective tariff.

HAND AND RING. By Anna Katharine Green
&. T. Putnam's Sons, publishers, New York.
Price so cents.
The authoress of "Hand and Ring" has
shown us that the vengeance of Heaven, though
sometimes delayed, is, nevertheless, certain;
that our smallest acts are links in the chain
which binds us to our destiny, and that
God sets His mark as surely upon the muir
derer of to-day as he did upon the first muir
derer, Cain. The story has decided power; it
teens with dramatic incident, and the intricacy
of the plot rivets the attention and renders it
impossible that even the most practised novel
reader shou d anticipate the end.
