The Election ouTuesa&y,,, ...
THE ENTIRE TICKET ELECTED.
Judge Emory’s Majority 1202.
We confidently expected to see- the .Regular
Union Ticket elected on Tuesday last, bat’cer
tainly did not anticipate the pleasure of re
cording so decided a majority. Our readers trill
see exactly how the vote stands., from the’offi
cial table which „wc publish tliis week, the
elections throughout the county parsed off quiet
ly, there having been no rioting or disturbance
any where, owing to. the fact that all drinjsing
houses were closed on that day.; The vote
light, many of these who were, registered not
having turned out. Had all been at the Poll®,:
the Union majority would hate been still great
er. Mr. Grason and the other candidates on
the Independent'ticket, made great exertions
prior to and ou the election day, and we may
suppose, had all their supporters at the Polls.
In the 13th district, With the exception of
one vote for Mr. Zimmerman;.not anothercan
didatc on the 'lndependent ticket received a
single vote. From the efforts made to-create
sympathy for Mr. Grason, many persons feared
the result for the .Judgeship, That result canr
not but be gratifying to Judge Emory and all
loyal men throughout the county, he having
the highest majority ou the ticket.
We congratulate the. Union men of the coum
ty, that the cause lor which they have been
struggling during the past foar years, is still so
strong in our midst. The great question wltleh
under-lay all minor fcn'd mere personal issues,
the question which was rfcally decided at the
Polls on Tuesday last, was, whether the Chi
cago Platform Democracy,—the men who voted
for McClellan and believed the war a " failure,’'
were to administer our county offices, or-wliath
cr they were to be committed to .faithful; and
true men, who stood firmly by thftjffo.vera et eo t
in its sorest trials, and who are to day Wicearu-?
est supporters of the peiiCy of AndreW
son. Whatever may have been the- political
feelings' of the balaneC of the ddadulates bn the
Independentticket/a'nd we betiyvemosf of thehi
were reliable Union men, they deafly made
that the issue when they, look ip
their arras, placed his naipg atjhfl head of their
ticket and labored for his success. Had they
endorsed the nomiiisdM(if; JudgeiEhdoryi they
might have faa'ed- bettfr/'-'Leyiaf : men willndt
tamper with treason. "Mot yfdre foF

result of their course,The trials have been tod

The Registry Law. ;; r u
The announcement of- fifre- In depen deri is th a t
they favored a modification of the Registry !aw,
does not seein to have met Willi mucn.'favor Fn
. the county. The people' Relieve in.a.coursp, iff
naturalization for Southern Confederates as well
as for Irishmen or Germans- The course that
some of the Copperhead papers of the .State
are taking with reference to its repeal, is the
best argument for its continuance.
The Prince Georgian of November 3d, urged
“ all citizens who heretofore jyerelegal voters,
to attend at their respective Polls on (Tuesday next,
whether they be, registered ,oy noL” t .lix guother,
article, the same paper The present
Constitution must bp overthrown, f * The soonetv
this is done the better, and the.best way to do.
it is to commence-at atiicc,';aiid present a solid
fronton the coming election.' Tire great -Dem
ocratic county of Prince Gebrge’sA'e looked to’
by some of her siaterS for cOu(foe L—and fbt her
set a proper example by dieting \er ticket .even’
under present circumstances."
From these extracts it may be seen that, the
object is not simply to modifyor repeal the?
Registry law, but “to overthrow the present
Constitution ” of the State, - What better argu
ment is needed in favor of the law, than the
necessity of holding this revolutionary element;
in check, and keeping it fn the position which
it occupies by.reason of its hostility to the,na
tional government and the Sjate legislation of!
the last few years? It is a serious and unpleas-'
ant duty to disfranchise.a fellow.-cili?ep, but
better do that than -allow the State to fa H iuto
thehandsof therebels and revolutionists in our
midst, who would “ overthrow fireCodstiteGoU'’•
and the Laws made ill accordance therewith,'
ignore the results of the Waf ? ’ttnd' force upon"
the people.compensation for slaves, and'ail the
injurious legislation of former days.
SIGNIFICANT.
Of all the varied and striking emblems which,
ornamented the opposition Tickets *m election
day, it is a significant fact that Bot/one bore
any national or patriotic design.! One lot had
a Bee-hive, to show how the voters were going
to swarm to the Polls'fn its -Support-; another
had an agricultural cut to indicate the peaceful
proclivities of the'bandidat&yaribther had the
seal of the State, to show that some of them
still stod where they did when that emblem
was hoisted over Mr. Ady’s hotel; another bore
the cut of a ship—though whether this, was to,
represent the Merriinac, the Alabama, or- the,
craft in which they expected togo up Salt river
in, we can’t say.
P. S.—We have since learued. that one batch
of their tickets did have an emblem, Withtbe
motto “ Our Country ’* over it. Bat as the de
sign was a globe about three-fbufths stitik iff'
the dashing waves, we phifeupie,, from the small
section of territory represented ou it,that “Our
Country ” meant only the late Southern Con
federacy. . , i'! laJi, i, ,

■ .. No litll# intwejt attaches, to this Priest and
Kingmddcn country on our Southern border,
on accbunt bf'tlie possibility bf its being the
muse of a war until Prance. The Jilauroc Doc
tritle; tlvat no foreign power shall set its foot on
our comment and interfere With the governments
of adjoiuing nations, has> become an article of
opr poßtioal faith, as strong as though it were
written iu die ConstitutioA. And neither Napo
leofl nor any other European prince would have
dated tb disregard this article, but for the cir
cumstances iil which wc were placed by the late
war. It was while the .Southern, Confederacy
Pfqvgised to booqme a de facto govei ament; that
Maximilian of Austria was borne across the sea
and elevated to the Mexican throne by French
bayonets. Deceived by the prpspects of the Con
federacy, Napoleon probably saw the opportuni
ty of establishing a government in Mexico, which
might some day extend .its swfjy oter the: rebel-'
Übus states, and thus become a great nationality
which he would eontroUi‘ l7 ‘- i 1
There can belittle doubt that lie favbred tbii
Rebellion from this motive. And the fact that
Lieut. M, F., Sfaury and Gen. Jno. B. Magruder,
late’prominent ofiicers-£.the defunct confedera
i cy, have been appointed-to promihent positions
ia,thjeAjUxLniiliau government,-gjvds mlditidual
strength to; this: supjioshioii: l rr ti.
But the national- authority is ‘te'-established
iovbrtlh? entire country, ntid thc'pbssibility ofthe
ehifbreenKjtat Of (hp Monroe jjoctiine, may cause
a change in Napoleon's pobey. The Libera} par
ty of Mexico, under the lawful President,, Juarez,
would require buhjittle aid from our trained vet
eran y who:ate still>iu the service, to driveMaxl- 1
.milktn and Mh French eohoVts from the kingdom"
; ’-sOdfr gbvternttdnt has never officially recognized
Maximilian. We, believe there are still officers on
duty in t’ui.s, epuntry, representing Mexico, by
authority of i’rtsident Juarez. Audi it is said
that Sec. SCward has intimated to the French,
government that no more foreign troops will be
allowed to land in Mexico. Popular sentiment'
is with’our government in these acts! The peo
ple sympathize with the little body, of Mexican
soldiery who arc so brarqjy struggling fo; U*eii*
Republican President. They look upon Maxi-? 1
milian as air lUoOrper ami interloper, and his
presence in Mexico is felt as an outrage and a
blow at Democratic institutions.
It must be admitted that bis administration,,
on the whole, has bmi wise and conciliatory.—
lie has dealt generously -with the Liberals who .
fougbtagainst him. He has adopted a system
of Internkl improvement, which; if carried out, :i
cAnnot fail to prove highly beneficial to the coun
try. tie is encouraging immigration, and en
deavoring by every means in his power, to stim
ulatp, l)ie languid energies of the people; But all
this, however beneficial to, Mexico,in a material
. poiut, doos not wipe out tlfo fact that he is a
nionarchit'al usurper, and that his Slreilgth grew
out bf our apparent-weakness. ,4 -- ,u '

much service during the late Rebellion. Mr.

fitted with those progressive ideas which should

found interesting and valuable to the private
citizen as well as to the public statesman.

Ignorance a Source of Crime. :f
Few* pet-sous, even at this day, realize the full
importance of a thorough education of tbe young.
Too many look upou U merely as a fashionable
accomplishment or a3 a nieans of acquiring
wealth with greater facility in after life. Tttev
fail to be coviuccd that their obligations to their
country and to morality demand the liberal ed
ucation of their children. The repetition of
these obligations seems to have littleeffect. Peo
ple bear but do not heed them. They look up
on them as empty declarations, very, plausible
in theory, but needless and impossible m prac
tice. They do not realize (he great, living fact
that is embodied in the asSertiofi Tlikt" “Igno
rance is the source of crime.” Let us call the
attention of shcli to the report of New York
Prises Association Committee. “Of 505 prison
ers, 179, or 32 per cent, could not read ,; "118, pr
21 per cent, could read only; 205, or 40 per
cent, could read and write; while only oigh|
bad received a complete education. Now in the
whole State of New York, only two and sevep
tenths per cent, of the adult population! are un
able to read, while 3i per cent. Af {hose wluj
commit crime do not possess that ability. Hence,
nearly one-third the crime in the State is com
mitted by a little more than two-hupdreths oil
tbe populatioo.”
But even this statement] is far from showing
the full influence of ignorance in the commission
of crime. The Committee goes on to say : .
Those who are put down ns able to read
and even the large portion of those who are on
the record as able to read and write, possess that
accomplishment in a very limited degree. The
committee tested scores of the prisoners, who
claimed, the ability to read, and : found hardly
any of them in possession of it to that degree
which Would render it available for any really
practical advantage. They read with so mijch
labor and so little intelligence, that they can
never |(EOrt to it either for wisdonkor recreation.
Not one-fourth of those who were asked to ’do So;
could spell the words ‘read’ and ‘write’ Cbrrect
ly ; and a majprity of the prisoners who were
tried, were obliged to spell atleast a fourth of
the words before they could pronounce them.
From'these statements it may be soen 'what a
lamentable and prolific sonree of crime ignorance
is in New York, and what is true in N. Y. is
equally true in Maryland, in this respect.
Some very good and sensible mep have
idea that education leads to immorality and/ vfc*
cionsness —that the better a loan is 1 educated,
the more capable and the more, disposed^hcis to
commit wickedness. Let the above Report con
vince such of their error", tip into any of our
city Criminal and Police Courts, or even into our
County Courts and you will find that nine-tenths
oFthe Criminals are such as have had ' little pr
no education. We wish thdt it could be im
pressed on the mind of every parent in Baltimore
county, that education is the source <f vioralitg.
The better you educate your the bet-tj
ter men, the better citizens, the more useful and
prosperousmembers of tbe community will they
be. ! i • ' •
Send your children regularly to 6cbool ; <see
that they have good Teachers; interest yourselves
in their studies ; aid them wherever you can ;
encourage them in their work ; show them the
importance of diligent application. Thus you
will exert an influence for good that will be.

The New Cotton Mill at Woodberry.
It is always pleasant to record the developfe
ment of resources and the improvements con
stantly going on in the county.. The better our
crops and dwellings,-the better our roads and
schools, tbe more extensively our water power 1 i
applied to mechanical purposes, the greater will
be the aggregate wealth and happiness of tb#
people. The most extensive and important im
provement we bare noticed in the county for
some time, is the new Cotton Factory of Nelson.
Gamhrill, Esq., at Woodberry, on the N*: G. ;R.
W. Tbe building is a massive structure ofstone,
three stories high, 320 feet in length, 6fl fret in
width and covered with slate. “*
It is designed for the manufacture 6f Mdslin
and Cotton Duck, the latter being a heavy goods
used for sails, teuts fcc. The Mill will have 7000
spindles with a capacity of 200 looms, and will
be driven by an engine of 200 Horse-power. It
will be capable of manufacturing 6000 lbs. of
Goods per day, which would be about 10,000
yards of Muslin. It will require 250 hands to
run the mill, at a coat of about S2OO per day.—
The building and machinery will be of the first
class, and when completed, will be probably the
finest cotton manufacturing establishment in the
State. Mr. Isaac Crowther does tbe masop work
Stephen Barton, Carpenter ; Mr. Gault, Slater ■;
Mr. Doremns, Plasterer, all of whom are first
class workmen. The engine is being built by
Messrs. Poole & Hunt, at their extensive estab
lishment in the same village.
In addition to the mill, Mr. Garabrill is hav
ing a number of handsome and comfortable
dwellings erected for the residence of operatives
in the mill. The mill itself is named “Druid,”
after the Park, and that part of the village North
of Jones’ Falls and adjoining the mill, will here
aftre be known as “Druidville.” The entire
cost of mill, machinery, new dwellings &c., will
be about $250,000. It is expected to have it in
operation, early in the coming year.
Woodberry is one of the most flourishing man
ufacturing villages in the country. The two
large cotton mills of Messrs . Wm. El Hooper k
Sons, now running day and night; the exten
sive and well-known macjiine shops, of Messrs.
Poole k Hunt, and the new mill of Mr. Gambrill,
give employment to a large number of operatives.
And we venture to say, there is not a manufac
turing town in the United States,-where the ope
ratives have better dwellings or live more eom
fortnbly than at Woodberry. The town has a
handsome stone church, a good Public ScbdOl
bouse, and with its pretty cottages aqd more
stately residences strewn oyer the’ neighboring
hill-sides, presents a most beautiful and roman
tic appearance.
Mr. Gambrill, will accept our thahks for the
items concerning the “I>ruid Mills.”

, Accident. —A painful accident occurred on the
i York Road about 2 miles below Towsontown on
: Tuesday evening last. Messrs, Tyson and Ridgey
> ly Ware of this place, were coming up from the
i election.at UxiVabstown on horseback. When
near Mr. Harrison’s gate, the horse of the lat
i ter look fright and started off at a run, followed
■ by the other horse, which, it seems was partly
blind. It happened that Mr. Biottenberger of
Towsontown, was ou the road just ahead, with
his two horse team, and before Mr. Ware could
check or turn the blind horse he ran right into
• the team, throwing Mr. Ware over his head and
■ severely injuring him by the fall. One of Mr. B’s
’■ horses was overthrown bv the concussion and had
one Rout while Mr. Ware’s horse wag
so bad I y'uij ureilh a t it was with difficulty he
was bright home.
! A few weeks ago,. Mr. Biottenberger bad three
r cows killed oil the Rail Road, and being a man
in bumble circumstances, this additional loss
will fall heavily on him. £

tacjel.aud a hit of clothing, stolen. The thieves
• entered 'Uipotigh a window in the back part of
■ the house. From a noise heard by a colored man
in Mr. Merryman’s employ, the robbery issuppo
-1 sed to haYe jpccurred about 3 o'clock in the mor
ning. A’fttOng foeclofching was an overcoat, and
some flaunel in tbe piece. The silver ware had
[ been in Mr. Merrytnan’s family a long time, and
was very highly’ prized.

kc. Lay the blatlftf w4iffre’W>tly belongs.—
There are “Democrats” in this country, we
glad fo knqw—real, true, liberty-loving, JelWr*'
soa, Jackson Democrats, to whom these charges
do not apply: men whb are Democrats indeed,
in whom there-is no guile. Our readers will
understand that the arlfole applies only to those
pretended Femocrata who consistently favored
the rebellion,,,aud never knew what it was to feel
a Democratic aspiration.
The Rebellion was Democratic. It broke out
in Democratic States. It wascoufined to Demo
cratic States. It WHS hatched by Soutbein Dem
ocrats. It was fostered by Northern Democrats.
Democrats officered the Rebel army. Democrats
made up its rank and file. Democrats filled ev
, ery office in the Confederate Government, from
the Presidency down to the pforksbips and the
messen^ersliip^.-,j,There wasrVt a Republican
with n shoiviicr-sirap, or a ‘musket, ora “place,'”
in the whole devilish concern. In the Democrat
ic 1 City of Washington, under the Democratic
Administration of Buchanan, the Rebellion was
conspired and prepared. A Democratic member
of that Democratic Administration stripped the
North arms, and smuggled them oyer to the
South; and sent the army where it would be un
available, or could eiv?Uy be captured. A Dem
ocratic member of that same Democratic Admin
istration scattered the navy over the world so
that it could not he used on tbe Rebel seaboard.
A Democratic Secretary of the Treasury plun
dered his trust to supply the Rebellion with mo
ney. A Democratic President, entreated to do
something to save foe Nation; refused, declaring
and arguing that tlie Government could not
Constitutionally’ defend itself, and that it was
unlawful to coerce Rebels, and he sat sullenly
down, like tbe Democrat and traitor that he was,
arid allowed the Nation’s arsenals to be plundered,
and the Nation’s ships, navy-yards aud fortress
es to be seized, and the Rebel arniie3 to be or
ganized, without lifting a finger to prevent;—
Democrats throughout evLy Northern and West
ern State applauded the conduct of their Demo
cratic P resident aof defended his Dem
ocratic doctrine, that the Government had no
right to apply force to suppress a liebelliou —and,
from tlie word “Qo.T politically and personally
opposed every legislative, financial, military and
moral measures taken to speedily and successful
ly prosecute the war, and save the Nation’s life.
The Country’s past and present woes are Demo
cratic—all and every of them, without qne soli
tary exception. This trqfo, as of the Gospel,
was thus uttered by ft Western orator :
“Let Democratic journals and orators howl
over foe debt and taxes their war has brought.—
They but magnify their own sins. Every dollar
of debt is a Democratic legacy. Every tax is a
Democratic girt. Every Government stamp is a
Democratic sticking-plaster. Every person in
the United States drinks in Democracy in his tea,
his cpfft**ad feuM* sugar mfce&t
with he sweeteps.them. Each ingredient pays
its quota for the cost of Democracy to the coun
try. The smoker inhales Democracy. The sick
man is physicked With Democracy. The labor
ing man gives qne hour’s labor every day
to pay for Democracy. Tlie capitalist pays ope
tenth;of his income tor foe cost of the Democrat
ic party. Evdry transfer of property is saddled
with tlie Democratic burden. Before he is be
gotten, the child is subject to the Democratic tax.
Frorn the cradle to khe. grave ¥ t upver| is free |
from it. The funeral mourning must first pay,,
thepeoftlty of Democratic rule, and a portion ofi
thftt \Vhith he leaves behind must go into thir
Democratic vortex. Generation after generation
will carry this Democratic burden from birth to
death. But Jfoc tjhe Democratic party, our peo
