A Political Horoscope.

A correspondent writing to the
Maryland Journal. says: "You
remember, don't YOU, Dir. Editor,
when our mutual friend George
Cotton was in the ring, and State
printer, and proprietor Of the Mary
land Republican, he published at
the end Of each session of the Leg
islature an illuminated extra in
which he gave brief sketches of the
members and representations /
have before me now copy of the
extra issued in March, 1880, in
which horoscope Of many of the
then prominent and active politi-
cians Of that day is gwen. 1t pur-
ports to be taken from a copy Of
the Daily Maryland Republican of
June 2, 1850, giving an interview
with Judge Howell, at his palatial
residence, Magnolia Hall, at Round
Bay. The Judge gives the reporter
his "Reminiscences of the men who
figured at Annapolis in 1880. Some
of these life sketches are amusing,
some interesting, and some have
been fulfilled. Speaking Of Hon.
A. z. German, Judge Howell is
made to say that after he was plac
ed in the u. S. Senate he swas long
a man Of great influence. He was
rendered the mission to England,
and subsequently that to Russia,
but declined both. When serious
complications grew out of a great
war between Russia a. England,
Dir. German was sent abroad with
extraordinary powers and placed
our foreign relations on most sat.
isfactory footing. This gave him
national reputation, and in accor-
dance with the national will he was
nominated and elected Vice Presi-
dent of the U. S."
Mr.. Cotton may yet live to see his
prediction verified.

Reduction of Salaries.

There is the greatest demand for a reduction
of the salaries of county officers, but how tn at
reduction should be brought about is question
of equal Importance. The bill that recently
passed the House is quite defective, as we view
it. 1t fixes salaries of officers and clerks and
sends them direct to the county treasury for the
cash. and leaves the fees to sort half take care
of themselves. The officers, except the treas
urer, ought not to be allowed to draw money
from the treasury. They should pay themselves
out of the fees collected and after they receive
fair sum as salary. then let the balance be
paid into the treasury, less certain per cent to
the officers for collecting the same. There must
be an incentive for the officer to collect the fees
If not. large per cent will go uncolected and
the county becomes the loser. We hope the
Senate may discuss this matter and make such
amendments as will benefit the tax payers, and
not allow a system of salaries to be fastened
upon us that will be greater burden on us
than the present system. Let us have reduc-
tion, but let it be based on good common sense
