The Baltimore American, the Republi-
can organ of Maryland, came out recently
in favor of an amendment to the constitu-
ton, increasing the cost of the Judiciary.
If the Republicans were to carry the next
Legislature it is very probable that such an
amendment would be passed by that body.
Are the taxpayers, and the farmers of
MARYLAND, with wheat at 50 cents per
bushel, in favor of increasing the salaries
of our judges? If so, they will vote the
Republican ticket. The Republican theory
seems to be the igher the taxes the greater
the prosperity of the people.

Senator Henderson, OF Nebraska, who re-
ceived four thousand dollars back pension
money without asking for 1t, aud draws 3
pension that he does not need, however much
he might deserve it il in want, talks IN silly
strain when be says that II on re-examInatiOn
the Medical Board shoald find him sound in
mind aud body. he would almost be willing
TO apologize for having fought on the right
side in the war OF the rebellion. Nobody
wants him to apologize. Opposition to the
abuses of the pension system IS not opposition
TO the gallant soldiers who fought for the
Union, aud who ought to be too proud now,
after their voluntary services, to become e
post fdctO mercenaries, as those do who, with
out need for it, apply for and take pensions
from the Government.

The Sentinel's Mistake.

The Republican organ of Carroll, the
american Sentinel, seems to think that
there is likely to be plethora of candi-
dates in Carroll, and the design of the
Democrats in having unpledssed delegates,
is to reduce the number. 1t is fact that
there are a number of excellent persons
aspiring for places on the Democratic ticket
this fall. but convention of unpledged
delegates is calculated to increase the num-
Der of candidates rather than reduce 1t.
The very object of the Central Committee
in suggesting the choice of unpledged re-
representatives., was to avoid any restriction
in choice of candidates. The delegates are
expected to present to the convention not
only those who aspire to nominations, but
others also, in order that from the number
strong capable and popular ticket may
be selected ticket that will command
the respect and confidence of the people,
and call out the full party vote.

A telegram from Johnstown says the water
in the rivers there is getting very low, and a
great deal of pestilence breeding matter is
being exposed. The stencil along the river
bank is becoming unbearable; especially along
the point and near the stone bridge are the
odors very nauseating. There are quite likely
many dead bodies in the sand along the banks,
and also in the bottom of the river. The body
of child was taken out of the sand near the
stone bridge on Saturday. There is much
sickness in the valley and the physicians are
kept busy. The proportion of deaths con-
tinues large. At a meeting of the business
men of Johnstown at night 1t was determined
to bring suit against the South Fork Fishing
Club. One thousand dollars was subscribed,
and it was agreed that John FL. Linton and
w. Horace Rose should investigate the matter.
