The Baltimore american says in
its usual forcible way, as follows of
the present members of Congress in
Maryland:
The congressional nominations of
both parties are now before the pub
lie, and it is possible to institute
comparisons. The generally accepted
opinion has been i'm the past, and we
imagine still is among patriotic citi-
zens sincerely desirOus of the
welfare of their country that
congressman are chosen to protect
and advance the general interests of
the nation first, and next the public
interests of the community repre-
sented by them. If this be adopted
as criterion by which to judge of
their services, we think that the Re-
publican party in this State has no
reason to be ashamed of its standard
bearers. Taking the record of the
present Congress. the State is repre-
sented by three Republicans. Messrs.
McComas. Stockbridge. and Mudd.
and three Democrats. Messrs. Glib
son, Rusk and Stump. The entire
six are esteemed as reputable citizens
who have probably done the best
they knew how to further both ma
tional and local interests; but what
have they accomplished?
Mr.. McComas' reputation is now
national. He is regarded as one of
the, leaders of the House. and he has
been mainly instrumental in secur-
ing protection for Maryland indus.
tries wherever they needed it. No
intelligent citizen will question his
usefulness, or the assertion that no
member of Congress in recent years
has reflected more credit on his ma.
tive State. Messrs, StocKbridge and
Mudd have never been in Congress
before this session, and are on the
same footing with Mr.. Stump. Mr..
StOckbridge, in quiet, unobstrusive
fashion, appears to have gained the
confidence of the House, and through
his exertions the steamers sailing
from this port have been relieved
of one of their most oppressive and
needless burdens. He has been in
defatigable in his efforts to improve
the shipping laws. and if the bill
classifying the local inspectors of
steam vessels is passed at this session,
it will be due to his energy and per-
siStency,
