COMING HOME.

Speaking OF the mastering out Of the First
Maryland Regiment, To which Company X,
of this town is attached, the Baltimore Sun
of Monday says:
AFTER the First Maryland Regiment is
mustered out Of the federal service, which
will shortly be done, the only Maryland or.
ganization left in the service will be the
Baltimore company organized by Messrs.
Stuart Jsnney and Osmun Latrobe. This
company is now in Cuba. There are many
Marylanders still in the volunteer and reg
uiar army and many in the navy, but with
the return of the First Regiment the men
furnished by this State In response to the
Presidents call for volunteers will all have
left the service. The Fifth Regiment while
in camp maintained their high reputation
for discipline and efficiency The naval re-
in Cuban waters. The engineer battalion
performed good service In Porto Rico. The
people and press Of Augusta, Ga, unite IN
praising the First Maryland. The com
mander of the regiment, Col. VIM. p. Lane,
has been trusted in the most responsible po.
sitions. To be placed in command OF Fort
Monroe was distinguished honor, and he
filled every place with credit to himself and
the State. As a result of good discipline
the health of the men has been excellent
and they will return TO their homes strong
and we'll They will receive cordial vel

THE LAST BATTLE AT MANILA.

The startling news from Manila that the
insurgents have made spirited attack upon
the American lines comes as something OF
surprise, because the tenor OF recent dis.
patches has been strongly pacificatory. The
last statement, which II not official had a
semi-Authoritative form, was that Agunaldo
was acting in harmony With General Otis
and Admiral Dewey, and that the obstacles
between complete understanding were be,
ing rapidly disposed of.
In spite Of all these dispatches desper
ate battle has taken place between the
American forces and the insurgents. The
story briefly told in the cablegrams from
Manila show how gloriously our soldiers are
maintaining the honor Of the flag In the far
East
The battle seems 10 have been made up Of
series Of intermittent engagements lasting
from Friday evening TO Saturday at dark
and extending along the whole defensive
line on the south and east of Manila. The
PHILIPPINES challenged the fire of our out.
posts by insolently passing and repassing
the pockets. The guard, having been re
peatedly challenged, at last fired and one
man was killed. That this was premedi.
tated signal to attack is shown by the fact
that the whole line OF insurgents opened fire
ct once.
During the night the monitor Mcmahon
ock, the protected cruiser Charleston and
the gunboat Concord, being assured of this
position OF our troops, threw shells into the
enemy's line with fine effect. Before night
fall the enemy had been driven back and
their batteries silenced. The insurgents
were finally driven about ten miles with
reported loss Of 1000 killed, $500 wounded
and 5000 prisoners. The First Nebrask,
captured an important and strong position
at the reservoir and held it. Our troops
though greatly outnumbered, are confiden
and undismayed, although their losses are es
timated at "a killed and Al wounded.
The present condition OF our army of oc
cupation is that our land forces are II
strength and position at and about Manila
and amply strong to hold back the insur
gents
The seriousness Of the affair cannot b.
over estimated, both as TO the battle itse
and as to its consequences. That we will
at once take resolute and aggressive steps
to reduce the rebels goes without saying, bu
the effect following the ratification of thu
treaty remains to be seen, and that othe
questions of the vastest importance shal
arise from il cannot be doubted.

After day If excitement and suspense
almost unparalleled in the history of the
United States Senate, the treaty of peace
was ratified on Monday afternoon without
amendment, and by vote of 81 to 81, only
one vote more than the necessary two.
thirds. There were six absentees. four for
the treaty and two against it, so that the
senate actually stood 81 TO 30. The actual
result could not have been foretold with ac-
curacy until the roll-call had been nearly
concluded. The news OF the ratification
was not only flashed instantly throughout
this country but was cabled TO Gen. Otis at
Manila. So close in point of time are the
Philippines TO the United States that reply
had been received from Gen. Otis before the
Senate adjourned shortly before O'Clock

TIRED OF QUAY.

Senator Quay's forces were not only de.
leated but they were routed at the Lebanon
Republican primaries held on Saturday last,
and it is idle to claim that this result was &C.
complished by fraud or debauchery.
Both sides had in the forefront their ablest
men, not only their ablest orators, but, also,
their ablest manipulators, thoroughly famil.
lar with all the desperate methods of mod
ern politics, and the defeat is so overwhelm
ing as to admit of no explanation but that
the Republicans are tired of Quay.
II has been evident from the first davis
ballot for Senator that Quay could not at
tain his election by Republican votes, and
unless one-third of the Democrats of thu
House prefer his election TO the success o.
any other Republican his defeat is inevita

Abraham Spencer came up the lane
from the fields, carrying his discolored
old straw hat in his hand and hopping
his face with red cotton handkerchief.
He walked stiffiy and slightly bent for
ward from the hips, as do most hard
working men who have passed the half
century mark, but he set his heavily
shod feet down with a firmness that be-
spoke considerable physical vigor as
well as mental decision.
He scanned the house sharply as he
approached, and his shaggy brows were
drawn almost together in a frown. 1t
was the middle of a sultry August aft
ernoon, yet the doors and windows were
all closed and the green holland blinds
were drawn down. He tried the back
door and found it fast, and, though he
pounded on it with his horny knuckles,
there was no response, save a startled
"ouk, cuk, cukl" from an old hen with
a brood of downy chicks waIlowing in
the dust beside the steps.
