OF all men who served 10 the Con.
federate Service, there were none, who
suffered more than the Marylander.--
He was cut off from all communicas
ton with home, and, thereby, declared
from receiving those comforts, that
other soldiers could receive from their
home and State The Confederate
Marylander seems to be in the same
category he was in during the war. -
We hear of other States--South, pass
ing acts giving bounty to their Con.
federate soldiers. The Maryland
Confederate can expect nothing Of
this kind from bis native State. The
soldiers Of the Union army receive.
over one hundred millions of dollars
as bounty The Soutt ern soldier
helps to pay this tax and be does It
chserfully, recognizing principle and
bravery as deserving, even In those,
who c0ntended with him on the field
of battle.
In Maryland, there are men who
served faithfully and honorably ia the
Confederate Army and Navy, who
are broken down by wounds, disease
and hard fortune, who in their ex-

INTERNAL REVENUE COLLECTOR
Now that the political axe has begun
its work 10 this State, the various
national Offices in the fifth congress-
ional district are in order to be filed
with true and tried democrats in place
Of those who have so long enjoyed
the fruits Of Office. The Office of Col.
lector of the Internal Revenue, now
held by Mr.. John Henry Sellman, of
this county, is not covered by the
civil service law, and is therefore open
to deserving and competent demo-
crat. The most prominent applicant
for the place and the most deserving
that has been named, is our much es-
teemed friend, Dr. GEORGE WELLS
La fair weather and foul--in good re-
port and through bad report-in the
hour of hope and in the day of dis
pair--in all emergencies and at all
times-Dr. Wells has stood by his
colors and fought brave fght-nev-
er looking back or faltering in the
good work-and, however doubtful
the contest, if victory was to be
achieved by human exertion, victory
was sure to perch upon our banner.
DR.. Wells is well qualified for the
collectorship. He measures fully up
to the old JefersoDian standard
"Honest and capable" President
Cleveland could not do more grace
fuI act or better please host of good,
sound, working democrats in this
State. than by conferring the appoint
ment upon DR.. Wells at an early day.

4 Mining Cnmn in 40.

The mines put all men for once upon It
level Clothes, money, manners, family
connections, letters of Introduction, never
before counted for so little. The whole
community was given substantially an
even start in the race. Gold was so
abundant, and its sources seemed for a
time so inexhatstiblc that the aggrandiz-
ing power OF wealth was momentarily
annihilatcd. Social and financial in
capabilities between man and man were
together swept out OF sight. Each strang-
or was welcomed and told to take a pan
and pick, and 60 TO work for himself. The
richest miner in the camp was seldom
able to hire servant; those who had
been glad to serve others were digging
N heir own claims. The veriest green
horn was as likely TO uncover the
richest mine in the gulch as the wisest

the other hand, the claim on

poorest man in the camp could have
handful OF gold-dust for the asking from
II more successful neighbor TO give him
another start and help him "hunt for bet
ter luck" No one was ever allowed to
suffer- the treasure vaults OF the Sierra
were too near and seemingly too exhaust
less. "To little camp OF lS4S"--so an
old miner writes me "a lad OF sixteen
came one day. footsore, weary, hungry
and penniless. There were thirty robust
and cheerful miners at work in the ravine,
and the lad sat on the bank watching
them awhile in silence, his face telling
the sad story Of his fortunes. At last one
stalwart miner spoke to his fellows, say
ing: "Boys, I'll work for an hour for that
chap il you will" AT tho end of the
hour 800 worth of gold-dust was laid in
the youths handkerchief. The miners
made out list of tools and necessares
"fou CO." they said, land buy these and
come back. Wen have a good claim
staked out for you. Then you've got to
paddle for yourself" Thus genuine and
unconventional was the hospitality OF the
miners camp.-Mining Camp.
