WHAT 1T OFFERS.

1t is along the lines of this road that South
west Texas offers such inducements to settlers
as would, if fully understood, rapidly fill this
whole region with corn and cotton farms, fruit
orchards and vineyards, vegetable gardens
and root crops of all kinds. The lands through
which this road runs are very fertile, well
watered and timbered. The climate is unsur-
passed and there is not any section of the
country through which it passes in which
farming operations cannot be successfully
carried on. Fruits, grapes, vegetables and
melons ripen and are marketed weeks in adj
vance of other sections. Write to

ticultural Association say about this section

The Federal Election Bill,

For more than one hundred years the PEG,
pie ofthis country have been electing their re-
representatives. TO Congress under the laws and
regulations Ct each individual State, as the
constitution of the United States directs they
shall do.
During the same time this country has in
creased and developed beyond any other
country of which history gives any
account. But the Republican party de-
mand that change shall be made.
Circums'a nces have placed them in
control of every department of the
federal government, but instead of trying to
hold their lease of power by wise legislation
and impartial laws for all sections of the
country, and for all individuals they aim to
intrench themselves in their present position
for all time by usurping the rights of the
States and the people.
They propose to pass II !orce bill, by which
they will take into their own hands all the
machinery of elections, directly for members
of Congress, and indirectly for all other Of
ficers, State and county, in which the people
have heretofore had an uutrammeled choice.
Without any regard TO posterity, they pro-
pose to make this Ubiquitous law perpetual.
The officers who are to have this gigantic
power of controlling the voice of the people
are to be appointed for life, and n majority
of every board WILL of course, be Republi-
cans, which will amount to the same thing
as if they all were.
The people of this country can stand for
while robber tariff. They can stand it for
while to have their money wasted in the
most extrayagant manner that has ever been
known, IS these at most, are matters of
dollars and cents, and may not be ia
tai TO many, but when their individual rights
and those OF the States, which for hundred
years free people have held most dear, are
sought to be wresttd away from them they
will certainly resist
But the Republicans say that this thing is
necessary to secure the rights of the negroes
in the South.
Under the present laws The negro has all
the civil and political rights in all the States
that the white man enjoys. But they say
that he does not vote, that he is either afraid
to or that he does not take interest enough
to do so, and he should have the aid of the
federal officers to express his sentiments
through the ballot box. 1t must certainly be
great misfortune that the poor negroes do
not turn out more promptly and give us the
benefit of their wisdom. But how would it
be if they did not vote at all? Could the
country possibly stand it? 1t must be bad
thing to be ruled by white men. Mr..
McComas, one of Maryland's representatives
in Congress, says that the emigration from
the North and East will not settle in the
South because that section is ruled entirely
by white men. The people of Western Mary
land will say this fall whether they believe
this to be true or not.

Base Ball,

There was quite an interesting game of base
ball played at Aberdeen last Friday, July 18th,
between the Aberdeens of that place and the
Victors, of Bel Air, in which the latter won by
a score of 10 to z. The game was interesting
Evans and Richardson for the Victors and
Osborn and Pyle for the Aberdeen. The game
was called at P. M. The Aberdeen's took the
bat and succeeded in scoring run. Then came
the Victors turn. Evans stepped to the plate
up and drove the ball clear out of the grounds,
good for 3 base hit, but the ground rules only
entitled him to one. The Victors batted Osborn
for runs on the first inning. But the Aber-
deems failed to hit twirler Evans. The features
of the game were Proctor's and Coale's fielding.
Burnhardt'swork on 1st was excellent. Rich
ardson's work behind the bat was perfect.

Hon. Herman Stump.

In our last issue we noticed the able and
forcible speech of the Hon. Herman Stump,
our Representative in Congress, on the sub
iect of the Ubiquitous force bill, at the time
pending in the House of Representatives. 1t
gives us pleasure to refer again to Mr..
Stump's able effort, in behalf of the civil
rights of his constituents and the people gen.
orally, so far as to note the fact that his
speech has evoked general commentator
throughout the State as clear and vigorous
arraignment of the crooked ways of Repub-
licanism.
A distinguished ex-member of Congress
from Western Maryland, in letter of con-
graduation, speaks of the effort of Mr..
Stump in terms which assure the people of
this congressional district that we have a
Representative whose services, while of great
local importance, are also fully recognized
and appreciated by the Democracy of the
State at large.
We may be permitted 10 state in this con-
nection, that a rumor, growing out of the
publication of an anonymous card in the Balti-
more daily Sun of last week, that Hon.
Frank T. Shaw's name might possibly be
presented to the next congressional conven-
ton of this district as candidate for nomin-
alton, was without the sanction or know
ledge of that gentleman. He will not in any
way antagonize Mr.. Stump's nomination, or
rather, endorsement, for q second term. in
accordance with well established usage
Our distinguished member will have no OPP
that any of US need fear at the ensuing cleo
tion

Reported for The EgiS.
JULY 22d.-On Friday morning last as Capt.
Chauncey of the schooner Bill, lay in Romney
Creek, High House, taking in grain, he observed
something swimming in the water of the ste rn
of his vessel about fifty yards distant, which he
supposed 10 be musk rat, but on closer OBJ
servation proved to be rabbit about two-t thirds
grown. Calling his mate, Mr.. Bennett Nelson,
to join him they got in their boat and captured
him 200 yards from shore and swimming like a
duck. His rabbitship was unable to give any
account of himsef-Uncle Remus not being
about-but they supposed he was either taking
his morning bath or crossing the creek TO call
on friend.
The death of Mr.. George Harris is universally
lsmented in the Neck. He was man of sound
judgment and good Democrat.
Our venerable frieId, Mr.. Samuel Fl. Barron,
