THE PROPOSED ROAD LAW.

We publish elsewhere this week, the
full text of the proposed road law drafted
by Mr.. John S. Rossell, Clerk to the
County Commissioners, for the consid-
Grafton of our readers. Although it
embodies some features that we think
Objectionable, yet it is, as whole, such
great improvement upon the present
system that we would advocate its adop-
ton. A great many persons are OPP
posed both to the system of Inspector
ships and the letting the roads by sec
tons, but uutil they discover some bet
ter system it will have to be retained.
Another class advocate the system of
requiring the land owners bordering
upon the roads, or through whose lands
the roads may run, to keep them in Or
der; but in our opinion such a law
would be more difficult to enforce than
any upon the statute books.
The Board Of County Commissioners
will meet on the 22d. inst, for the pur-
pose of hearing expressions favorable
or otherwise to the proposed law, and
any suggestions that may be offered in
the way Of change of any of its provis-
ions, &c.
Citizens interested in the roads and
who is not, should carefully consider
the proposed law, and lay before the
Board at the time named their views
upon it, and suggest any changes in its
provisions that they think would i'm
prove il.

GOV. McLANE INAUGURATED.

The inaugural ceremony Of Governor
elect Robert NJ. McLane took place
in the Senate Chamber at Annapolis at
noon on Wednesday last. The oath OF
Office was administered by Chief JUS
rice Alvey, of the Court of Appeals.
The inaugural was informal and the adj
dress very brief. The Governor-Elect
was escorted to the Senate Chamber by
the Senate Committee, when he, with
out delay or formality, placed his buck
horn-framed spectacles upon his nose,
drew the manuscript from his coat-tail
pocket and proceeded to read his in
augural address. This was concluded
in about ten minutes, when the oath
was administered, and after a few mo-
ments of Misunderstanding, the inaugural
was over. There was nothing startling
or novel in the address. Its chief
feature was its brevity.

The election of successor to Sena-
tor Groome is still the leading matter
of interest at Annapolis. The friends
of each candidate gives his favorite the
lead in the race. A count ofvoteS made
by friend of Judge Robinson gives
that gentleman IS, including 7 from the
Eastern Shore. Another gentleman, a
friend of Judge Wilson, counts up IS
for Judge Robinson on the first ballot,
90 for Judge Wilson, IL for Heating, 9
for Groome and for Thomas, and an
other, friend of Mr.. Groome, figures
up 90 for Groome, IS for Robinson, 10
for Wilson, II for Heating and : for
Thomas on the first ballot. This of
course is great part conjecture, though
some profess to know the sentiments OF
each member.

ELKTON, JANUARY u, 1884.

The House of Delegates on Wednes-
day passed an order giving to each
member. and all the clerks and Sergeant
at Arms, thirty dollars worth Of postage
stamps apiece. Thirty dollars worth of
postage stamps will forward through
Uncle Sans mails fifteen hundred let
tiers, an average of sixteen letters a day
for each of the ninety days of the ses-
sion. How many of the members and
doorkeepers have such correspon-
dence? We venture to say that many
of them do not average one letter per
day. And some perhaps not more than
one week, and that when they write
home to Betsey and the baby.

THE MARYLAND sENATORSHIP.
A Probability that Mr.. Groome Will Be
His Own Successor.

The morning Herald, (Baltimore) of
Tuesday says: Senator Groome still re-
mains confident of reelection. Up to
last night the situation in this respect
showed no weakness. He could not see
that the result of the caucus this evening
would effect him in either way, and he
did not believe it would. At least he is
unconcerned if his friends are not. In
terviews with an alleged Mary land poll
tician, published in the Washington
papers yesterday morning had braced
him up amazingly. To the query of Tile
Morning Herald reporter as to whether
he intended to engage personally in the
6ght at Annapolis he said: "No, sir;
will net go to Annapolis until after the
choice is made. 1t is ill-beftting a
candidate for so high an Office to stoop
to the ways of the pot house politician.
No, sir; remaia in Washington"
The following is from the Washington
Post of Monday last, and shows in what
high estimation, Senator Groome is held
among his acquaintance at the capitol:
"Will Senator Groome be his own
successor" asked a Post reporter of a
gentleman thoroughly conversant with
Maryland politics.
'He ought to be-" was the reply. "But
whether majority OF the members of
the Legislature will agree with me is
quite different matter
believe he will be. He has served
his party and his State faithfully, has
always kept aloof from faction fights and
counselled harmonious party action. 1
believe his record viii; strengthen him in
the present canvass. The opposition to
him is not concentrated, and l expect to
see him again chosen after few ballots,
as said. OF course the result is in
doubt, although l consider that the
chances are in Senator Groome's favor.
While should not be greatly surprised
at his defeat, should be very much in
clined to question the judgment of the
Democratic members who feel it their
duty to vote against him.
1t is mentioned as an Interesting
coincidence" by correspondent OF the
Baltimore San, that in 1873 when Gov.
Groome was elected United States Sena-
tor, the voting began on the 10Th of
January, the same day of the month on
which it will begin this year. 1t might
be considered as still more interesting
coincidence were the voting, now as
then, to result in Mr.. Groome's election.
He has made an excellent Senator, is a
credit to the State and country, and in
point of statesmanlike abilities ranks
with the best of his compeers. 1t would
be great qualification to them and to
all who enjoy the honor of his acquain.
lance in Washington, and We refer to
those outside of the circle of his init
mate friends and supporters, to see him
reelected. 1t may be said, indeed, with
out any disparagement to the worthy
gentlemen arrayed against him for the
succession, that the Maryland Legis.a-
turs cannot do better than return Mr..
Groome to the seat which he so accep-
tably fills"

his neighbors, in most mysterious
manner, confidential secrets of tremen-
dous import.
He wonders why it was that the APP
pointing power did not, many years be-
fore, settle down upon him as the right
man for the place, and SO the evening
before the day on which the appoint
ment is to be made he packs his little
satchel and, in all the confidence of
certainty, rushes off to Baltimore or to
the City of Anne to receive his COM
mission, and to find, when he arrives,
that-the other fellow got it.
With that startling finale staring him
in the face, the future seems dark, in
deed. 1t is to him like the end of all
things-ike the wreck of matter and
the day of judgment. 1t crushes him,
and he sinks into the ABYSS of despair,
apparently, forever.
But "hope springs eternal in the hui
man breast" and so, after a season OF
gloom, he begins to see "the silver lin
ing to the cloud" and returns home at
last to become standing candidate for
anything that may turn up.
Through these several gradations OF
hope and despair the average Democrat
of Maryland is passing to-day. A new
administration has assumed the reins,
and for each office to be filled bakers
dozen of 1.-The unterrifed" are standing,
watching and waiting each pointing to
himself and saying, 81 am the right man
for the place"
How far their hopes and expectations
will be realized only the wheel of for
tune, as it revolves, can determine but
let us trust that, whatever else may hap
pen, Cecil county Democrats will con-
tInue to get their share.
