Cowpens Avenue and Politics.-We very
rarely pay any attention to anonymous letters
but we will depart from this rule to give plac
to the following, mailed from Loeb Raven OF
the Sth inst, taking the liberty to correct thu
spelling:
ITO The Baltimore County Union A littl'
information wanted in regard to Cowpens ave
nue. 1t was rumored that two-thirds of thu
money had been raised. If so why is it no
moving along? We expect that they will try
very hard to get it completed from Cowpen:
Station to No. Shaft, on the old Joppa road
or better known as Long Corner" as tina
seems to be a very particular point for thu
Democrats to call their hosts of friends together
in campaign times. 1t seems that there mus
always be something kept back to help the
Democracy along. even if it has to be Cowpen'
avenue Next fall all the county offices mus
be filled, either by the old veterans or bran new
office-seekers. They say if dog comes t.
your house and you give him good bone t
eat he always wants to come back again. 81
this is the way with our old county officers
They have chewed one good bone and they
want to go back to chew another one. And W.
are inclined to think that some of them think
Cowpens avenue will be very good place fol
them to beat for roll-call.
