A DoubIy Unfortunate system

\ Cumberland dispatch to the Balti-

port:
The republican Anti-Civil Service Club has
been recognized at FTostburg for the present
campaign. The strike has diminished the
enrolment, which had been over 200, but
now numbers 1872. The club is composed of
independents, many of whom are credited
with knitting Governor Lowndes last fall
Article 5 of the Constitution OF the
State provides for the establishment by
law OF Il system of public education.
But between those who could corrupt
the system by dragging il through the
mire of politics and those who nulhfy
its purposes of securing enlightened self
government by rohbing its graduates of
the right to hold office, the system is III
a bad plight.
Hence, what political school boards

from his compilation of select verse, Gu

THE LORDS PRAYER.
Thou to the mercy seat our souls dost gather,
70 do our duty unto Thee our Father,
10 whom all praise, all honor should be
given;
For Thou art the great God who art in
Heaven
Thou, by Thy wisdom, rulst the worlds
whole frame,
Forever, therefore, halowed be Thy name
Let never more delays divide us from
Thy glorious grace, but let Thy Kingdom
come;
J ct Thy commands be opposed by none.
But Thy good pleasure and Thy will be
done;
And let our prOmptneSs to obey he ever
The very same in earth as It's in Heaven,
Then for our souls, 0 Lord, we also pray
Thou would st be pleased to give us this day
The food of life, whereWlth our souls are fed
Sufficient raiment and our daily bread
With every needful thing do Thou relieve us,
All our miSdeedS, for Him whom Thou did'st
please
To make an offering for our trespasses
And fOrasmuch, o, Lord, us we believe
That Thou wilt pardon us-as we forgive,
Let that love teach wherewlth Thou dOst
aCquaint us
TO pardon all those that treSpasS against us.
And though, sometimes, Thou tindst We
have forgot
This love for Thee, yet help and lead us not
Through soul or body's want to desperation,
Nor let earth's gain drive us into temptation
Let not the soul of any true believer
Fall III the time of trial, but deliver
Yea, save them from malice of the devil
And in both life and death keep us from evil
Thus pray we, Lord for that of Thee. from
whom
This may be had, for Thine is the kingdom
This world is of Thy work; its wondrous
story
To Thee belongs-the power and the glory
And all Thy wondrOus works ha e never
ended
But will remain forever and forever;
Thus we poor creatures would confess again,
And thus would say eternally, Amen.
