There was a prediction made along a
bout 1875 that the seven years, beginning
with 1880, would be years of trouble and
distress to an extent greater than usual.
The world has gone through the greater
portion of the time alluded 10 in the pre-
diction, but there are still almost two
years that are yet to come and go. The
people can judge for themselves whether
the prediction has thus far proved true.
1t is certain there have been hard times,
great storms, awful and terrible accidents,
many earthquakes, great and frequent
fires, many deaths, and especially of noted
and distinguished persons, wars, faminss
and pes'ilences, but just to what extent
greater than in any other five years, we
do not know. 1t is gratifying, however,
that the predicted season of disaster and
trouble is so nearly over, although the
year and three months that yet remain
mag be worse than all that have preceded.
But we will hope not. Let US trust that a
brighter day is soon to dawn and that the
croakings of this ill-omened prophet may
come to naught. With business revival,
which is likely to follow resumption of
work and traffic by the laborers and the
railroads of the country, now paralyzed in
the West by the great strike, brighter
era will open, and the wise admiHistra-
ton of the Government by the Democratic
party will be assurance 10 the people OF
future prosperity and happiness.-Er.

Only Half Alive

There are hosts Of men and women who, TO
coin phrase, are only half alive. That is to
say, they have seldom il ever any appetite,
are nervous, weak, 6dgetty and troubled by
numberless small pains and aches. In the
presence of vigorous, sxuberant vitality they
seem mere pigmiss. Such persons are usually
fond Of frequently dosing themselves, swal-
lowing ia the course of the year enough drugs
to stock any apothesary's shop of average di.
msnsions. This, of cours, defeats instead Of
furtbering the end in view, viz, the recovery
Of health and vigor. Were they to seek it from
an unfaling source of vitality, Hostetter' s
Stomach Bitters, how different would be their
case. Then vigor would return to their debii-
tated frames the glow of health to their wan
cheeks, their trembling uncertain gait would
grow firm aEd elastic, appetite, that grandest
OF all sauces, would give relish fer the daily
feed. were it ever so coarse. and refreshn z
sleep would crewn ;hc tasks Of tbs day.

The Lavish Expenditures OF Congress

After the lapse of more than tweny
years, and the passag. Of na~sssas pen
sion bills in every conceivable iorn, =
strong pressure continues to be brought o
bear upon both houses OF Congress for he
passage of fresh pension bills, 'aking mil
lions Of dollars more out OF the treasury.
and nearly four hundred such bills have
already passed he Senate this session, and
many, though no, so large 4 number. the
House. If these additional pension. call
ed for were to I'll up gaps or to correc,
errors in former pension bills, they would
deserve consideration from a sense of JUS
tice to the parties TO be benefited b, hem
But most of them have been introduced
by one party for political effsc, and sane
toned by the other for fear lest il should
I've charged with inyrstitude towards the
men who fought in the war. As our
Washington correspondent remarks, the
pension legislation Of bath house. during
the present session has been more reck less
than ever before, and auless some limit be
put upon these grants Of money 10 be con-
tinued yearly during the entire ives Of
treasury will become so great that not
only will the annual surplus be absorbed.
but it will show q deficiency 70 he made
up either by the issue Of new loan. or by
increased taxa'ion. 1t is the policy of the
pretec'Ionis to encourage Expenditures
of all kinds. because the larger the de
men' the more impossible it will become
to reduce the customs duties, from which
and from the internal revenue taxes are
derived nearly all the money required to
meet the annu,l expenses of the govern
mem. NJ country in the world has ever
dealt So generously, and we might add so
lavishly. toward The men who served 10
the war for the Union. They have not
only been granted pensions hut land scrip.
and laws have been enacted giving them
u preference in al appointments in the
civil service. II it had not been for the
persistency of lobbyists the selfish clamor
of pension agens and the exigiences OF
politics many Of these pension bills would
never have passed. The heavy drains that
the pension bills Of this and previous SEES
sions will make upon the treasury are
creating uneasipess among the democratic
leaders Of the House - Baltimore Sun.

The railroad strike ia the West had
hardly quieted when another of even
greater magnitude has sprung up. The
workingmen's unions throughout the
country have recommended to their mem
bers that eight hours should be considered
days work, and have advised them to
ask employers for such reduction of hours
without, however, any reduction in pay.
This demand was made at the works of
the Mccormick Reaper Company in Chi
cago and refused, and the workmen at
once struck. The places of the strikers
were soon filled, but scenes of violence
were daily enacted between the strikers
and those at work This eliminated in a
riot at Chicago on Tuesday last, when in
a conflict between some anarchists, who
were using their efforts by incendiary har-
argues, to keep up the bad feeling among
the strikers, and the policemen of that
city, from 10 to 20 on each side los. their
lives, and much larger number seriously
wounded. The eight-hour movement has
become general throughout the country.

From what we can learn there seems to
be 10 probability of the President at an
early day, making the appointment of In
ternal Revenue Collector for Maryland.
Why this delay no one seems able to an
swer. We have heard that delays are
sometimes dangerous, we hope it may not
prove SO to the party in this case. The
americans Washington correspondent re-
ports Mr.. Compton as saying on this sub
ject last Saturday that "thers is no hope
for change while Congress is in session.
I doa't intend to try and make one. fer
the President has told me that he would
not think CT nominating man for the
place, and there is no use to urge any one.
So, do not intend to worry about it."

The State board of public works, at
their meeting on Thursday, received a
communication from the president and
directors of the Chesapeake and Ohio Ca
nal Company asking for authority to ne
gotiate the sale of 100000 of the per
cent. repair bonds, the money to be used
to repair the canal damages. The board
of public works gave their unanimous as
sent to the negotiation. The board also
held meeting in the evening to arrange
for advertising for the refunding of the
due and maturing State loans under the
act passed by the late Legislature. About
$1s0O,0O0 is to be refunded. of which
1851 900 is overdue and the remainder
will mature in 1887. 1t is proposed to
refund these loans at the lowest late at
tainable. State Treasurer Archer says the
State 365s sold recently at III, or less
than per cent. interest, and he indicates
that the loans may be refunded on equally
favorable terms.

The Change in the Marriage Law.

1t will be remembered that ut the last
session OF the Legislature there were two
laws past reducing the cost of the marriage
license fee. One of these originated with
Senator Jackson, and refers only to the
reduction in the fee The other originated
in the House and is known from it's author
as the Armstrong bil,' and it contains
much that is beneficial to the public well
fare and the peace of families Both acts
take effect on and after the 1st of June,
from which date $1,O0 will be sufficient
to procure marriage license in Maryland,
subject, however, to certain conditions of
which We give brief synopsis below.
Under the present law great laxity
prevails in regard to the issuing of licenses
he only pre- requisite being apparently
the necessary 81, $50 and the names of the
parties. They are issued to all applicants,
and in response to kilograms, letters, etc,
and the responsibility of marrying per-
sons Ineligible thereto is thrown upon the
minister. who is liable to fine Of $500 il
he knowingly marries persons under dis
qualification.
The Armstrong bill requires a license
to be procured 10 all cas- IS, excepr in case
Of Quakers, who may marry according to
the custom of their creed, In presence OF
twelve witnesses, etc and before the clerk
issues such license, an affidavit by one of
the parties, or some one in their behalf
shall be made and a certificate signed as
to the ages OF the parties, their places of
residence, their color and their relation
ship. If ia the course of the examination
the Clerk finds the parties disqualified
from any cause, he shall refuse to issue
The license unless required to do So by the
Judge of the Court, to whom the parties
may apply 10y petition. The license, when
issued, is conculsice to the minisre az, and he
is relieved from any penalties for marry
ing persons, who are ineligible, but is
subject to heavy penalty for marry ing
persons without license.
Two Ger iticstes are appended to the
marriage license TO be signed by the min
lister performing the ceremony, one of
which is to be delivered to the contract,
ing parties and the other to the Clerk OF
the Court within thirty days
The Clerk is also required to keep a
marriage license book which shall be a
complete record of all the items testified
to for The procurement OF the license and
of the fact ef the marriage. The pames Of
the parties are to be carefully intexed So
that q ready reference can he had as to
he facts connected with the marriage,
which record shall also be evidence of the
marriage in the Courts OF the State.
Males may marry when above 81 years
of age, aud females when above 16 years.
Under these ages consent in writing must
be had from psren, or guardian, and such
assent is made part Of the marriage re-
cord.
The cost Of license is fixed at Sl,00.
fifty cents of which goes to the Clerk as
fee. and fifty cents to tile State Treasury
for printing license, &c.

I. Parker Veazey, who little less than
year ago was appointed by President
Cleveland as postmaster at Baltimore, re-
signed the position on Friday last and
Mr.. Frank Brown was Immediately named
as his successor. Mr.. Veazey gives as the
only reason for resigning the position that
it lnterferred with his law practice, and as
it became necessary to sacrifice one or the
other he concluded to resign the post
mastership. Mr.. Veazey was the first
Federal appointment made in Maryland,
and his management of the pose office has
been such as to merit the appreciation Of
the business men and citizens of Balti-
more generally. Mr.. Brown will assume
charge of the office as soon as his nomina-
ton in confirmed by the Senate.

MoxIe and Nervous Women.

THIS little fodder plant has taken such mar
yellous hold Of the people, it has provoked more
discussion than anything of its kind ever known.
Its discovery has been the mark for criticism from
everybody, while the Moxie has been quietly cap
turing the women. Drinking large amount
seems to leave no disturbance. AT the same time
the cynics say it is coca, cocaine, arsenic, try
chime, and alcohol in anew disguise. Meanwhile
its disc0verer, an eminent physician. offers So
600 to any chemist or other person who will ind
either or any other ingredient in it more injurious
than winter green or common bitter root, which
those who have tried it accept as fact Its eftect
is said to be quiet remarkable, though the doxie
plant, which is all of it that can produce the re-
suit is as tastleSS and harmless as grass. The
nervous, weakley women flock after it like mad,
and ii is said by them to stop nervousness at once,
and give them double powers of endurance, While
it neither acts like leaves reaction like slim
ulant, nor loses its effect like medicine. 1t IS
said to remove nervous and other complaints by
making the nerves strong enough to control the
functions of the body properly when the cause of
ill health disappers, while medicine forces the
functions of the body, leaving the nerves weak
from being compelled to eyertask, If it can take
the place of dluggng and stimulating, it has come
to stay, and many of the doctors say it actually
does After thirteen or fourteen months on the
market its sale is said to be the largest ever
known. The large cities are talking Moxle f0reY-
er, and every nervous woman or overworked per-
son thinks is the last half of everything that has
just been found. Poor little Moxie weed, it never
dreamed before that it was so soon to be queen OF
the medical world.
