The Tins in its last issue 10 speak
ing of the desalcations Of Nicholson and
Montgomery, says, 1.-THE loss to the
county ia ihe combined defalcations Of
Nicholson aud Montgomery will be about
$1,000. This is as great loss to Charles
county as the Archer defalcutioD (every
dollar Of which will be refunded) would
be to the State Of Maryland. Yet Arch
er is in the penitcntiary and bo b Of our
Republican defagltcrs are scot free -
This is the difference between Republi
can methods aud Democratic methods"
We do not wish the impression created
that We are making any excuse for crime
or are we defending the defaulters, but
We wish to state that the Times is incor
rest when it says that Charles county
will lose $4,000 by the defalcatious Of
Nicholson aud Montgomery, for the re-
cord shows that every dollar due the coun-
ty by Montgomery bias been paid in full.
and in Nicholson's case a compromise
was effected with previous board. at the
solicitation Of prominent Democrats,
whereby a loss to the county was sus-
taiAcd. Certainly the record shows that
no such sum as $4,000 is due by the de-
faulting collectors to the county. Why
this compromise was made is better
known to the parties who were instru-
met,tai in bringing & about ;sass i 70 ls.
We believ, that other motives than pure
philanthropy actuated the prominent
Democrats who so earnestly pleaded with
Democratic Board for a compromise
which would save defaaltiHg Repu5li-
can from prison. Would it not be well
for the Times, while on the subject Of
dcfalcations, to 90 back and get from the
books Of the Comptroller the names and
amounts due by defaultcrs from 1861 to
1873, when none but Democrats we're in
office in this county, and publish them

Mr.. Mudl introduced bill in Con-
gress on Thursday of last week which
authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury
to pay to Mr.. Franklin Pennington, of
this county, sach amount as may be found
to be in excess Of difference in the pay Of
seargeut and private soldier for .ho time
he, Pennington, served as scargent in
the Army fthe United States in the war
with Mexico. The bill was referred to
the Committee on Claims but, owing to
,rss nc y y =. : ~ an, may not
be reached un:il the next session of this
Congress. Mr.. Pennington served with
distinction as seargent in Uncle Sans"
dragons during the Mexi,an war, but
lust before its close he was stricken with
yellow fever, and before his recovery his
discharge papers we're made out, and by
some inadvertance, he was ranked as a
private when the fact was he had never
served single day as such. The bill is
intended to correct the error and give
the old gentleman what he is justly en-
titled to. He, with Messrs. George
Spalding and W. E. Dement,, are the only
three survivors of the Mexican war in
this county, each of whom are now draw
ing pension from the government.

Silver was a genial gentleman Of decided
convictions and waI very popular. 1t
was his vote as a member of the House
of Delegates in 1884 which secured the
appropriation of $4,000 for Charlotte
Hall School which was needed to make
necessary repairs on the buildings, and
this is how it came about. The bill
granting the appropriation, which had
met with considerable oppositio !, was be,
ing voted on and at the close of the cal
aud before the vote was announced, Il
was evident that it was defeated
by one majority. The mem
