The importance of this subject to miners

it should be a matter of pressing moment,

Public Speaking.
On Sat unlay evening last-, in pursuance
of appointin' nl publFsheil in I lie Cumber
land Titanh and quite a large
crowd assembled in front of the Frost burg
Hotel to hear addresses from tiie several
speakers present.
* j Wm. A. Caiui.l, Esq., opened in quite a

’■ -Judgeship, bib vc-ry generously and earnest-
ly coinnictafed him to the si]*port of the
Democracy.
i, Wm. R. RvuNAim, Esq., a Democratic
nominee for the House of Delegates, pro
'• cecdr* I to vindicate himself from < linrjrcs
j\ made hysomeliodv to theetTect that lie had
been a “Know Nothin *.” Ac. Aflcrspeak
v. ini* a short time, he yielded to cries for
$ “’Squire Ryan” and “McKai*.”
' A looking little man, with a fair, full
forelicad, introduced as .John Ry \n. anoth
er Democratic nominee for the House of
Delegates, stated to the crowd that he was
not a public speaker. Ib*. however, gave an
' interesting sketch of legislative history, as
part icipated in by his colleagues and himself
a few years since, in the famous “Brock
I. bill.” lie concluded wit!i the unselfish rec
*’ ommendation to tin* l>emo rats that if any
one of them wished to “cut” any name in
j the party ticket, let it be John Ryan’s.
s 7*.e speech of the occasion was made by
7 j (Jen. Thomas I. McKAio,of Chimberland, a
* j eoinforliible-loohing. good-humored, elderly
j gentleman, who entertained the audience
a short while in an oil-hand, semi-facet ions
style. He, too, deplored the extremity to
■ \\ hirh the party bad.been reduced in calling
out Judge Peahkk, but congratulated the
| Democracy upon aecejitance. Judge
’ j P. had accepted the po. ’tion in response,
not to the call of a party, hut of the people.
- [For ourselves, we think the call, on the
part of the Democrats, an 1 the acceptance
of Judge Pka:i:jk. as occur fences highly
creditable.* to both, an I. from what ve have
learned of Judge P., Ids election will he a
fortunate icsiilt.] (Jen. MeK mo attributed
* the nomination of Col. S< ui.uy to the
manipulations of a “ring.” “(>n tliis ring,”
said he, “there are ft pots. Rut if you wili
take a yrcenbaek and rub them, they will
etixily come off." On the subject of “consol
idation” he was particularly lucid. After
' all that had been said about it, liis definition
of it was that “it is the bifff/eftt thing in thin
country /” lie pictured some of the results,
I however, of the establishment of a corpo-
ration so destructive of individual interests.
. j The miner must accept sueli wages as a
, monopoly chooses to give, else relinquish
! his little home here for employment else
where, if, haply, consolidation does not
. pursue him. The completion of the Wes
tern Maryland Railroad —another consoli
dation enterprise—would “dry up” the canal
business, make its boats useless appendages
and, lastly, not least ly, totally destroy the
■ profit, as well as utility, realized by the
owners of McKOff* wlmrf!
* The nominee for State’s Attorney, R.
Chew Jones, Esq., made the closing ad
, | dress. Owing to the lateness of the hour
and the cold, we did not remain to hear
him. We learn, however, that he made a
very creditable effort.
The Frost lmrg Cornet Rand enlivened
the occasion with good music.
We will be thankful for communications (
* from our lady and gentleman friends on in
teresting topics. The long evenings of
winter are approaching,and wean* sure no
better temporal use can be made of them
' than the intellectual one of writing. We I
have now a local press, by which an avenue |
. is opened to the public for the “breathing
thoughts” and the “burning words.” Am
ple scope is ottered to those who will avail
themselves of the abounding material upon
which to think and write. We know the
talent is here. Let us have the benefit of it.
j Violent exercise is seldom useful. It
. was noticed by the early Greeks that no
, ' one who in early youth won the prize at
the Olympic! games ever distinguished him
self afterwards. The same principle holds
; good iu regard to overtasking the mental
, powers in early life. An overworked brain
is the source of sorrows in later years. The .
old system of cramming, which used~to be
in vogue iu first-class schools, was often in
jurious. The true policy is to insist upon
* healthful physical development’ and to
l avoid all evils of excess.
i
Russia, while waiting lor opportunity to
make her grand stroke on the Danube*, is
continuuly employing her leisure in eon*
* quests on her eastern bprder. The New
York Tribune gives an account of the Rus
sian invasion and annexation of Dzoun
> garia, on the northern slopes of the Tian
' Chian mountains. Almost without excit
ing the attention oft lie world, the army of
the Czar has incorporated into his domin
ions a territory twice as large as Ireland,
rich in mineral and agricultural resources.

* Governor Bullock, of Georgia, resigned his
office on the 2kl, to take eil’eet to-day, and at
3 o'clock, I*. M., Benjamin Conley, president
of the Senate, was installed as Governor.
The resignation was written before Gov- ,
1 eruor Bullock went to New York. Great
excitement prevails.
i At the new wharf of the Norwich and
Worchestcr Railway Company, at Norwich, j
r Conn., there has recently been constructed
i' an elevator for the rapid loading aud unlond
- ing of coal. It works like a grain elevator,
has twenty compartments, each holding
; one hundred tons of coal, or two thousand
tons in all. Over two hundred thousand
- feet of lumber and plank were used in its
4 construction.

Homicide at Oliitown.— Yesterday
forenoon, a young man, about t
years of age, named Argyle Twigg,
walked into Esquire Condor’s office,
in this city, and said he desired to
surrender himself to the officers, of
the law for having shot a man named
Joint Wilson, at the house of Mich
ael Twigg, near Oldtown. on Friday
last, lie stated that a party ha I
been given at Mr. M. Twigg’s,
where he met Wilson, and that Wil
son wanted to whip him, and that
Wilson, with violence, took hold of
him several times and that finally lie,
Twigg, shot Wilson in self-defence.
Wilson is supposed to he fatally in
jured, the hall having penetrated the
bowels.
Twigg was commited to jail for a
further hearing. In the meantime
the condition of Wilson will he as
certained. This is the same John
Wilson that was tried recently in
Allegany county Court for horse
stealing, but was acquitted of the
; charge.—A ftes, Ist in*/.
i We learn that Wilson has since
died.— Civilian.
The Richmond Enquirer states
that there are three thousand public
schools now in operation in Virgin
ia, costing annually $1,000,000,
The Enquirer says :
“It has been no holiday affair put
ting these schemes in operation.
Our people are dead poor, and are
grumbling and quarreling incessant
ly about their taxes. It is like
drawing their eye-teeth to get mon
ey out of them. For them at such
a time, without a murmur, to have
undertaken the education of 100,000
colored children— to furnish sehool
iiouses, and hooks, and teachers, aud
fuel—is a decide Ily notable thing.
We say most emphatically’ that we
are the warm friends of the system,
and want to see our colored popula
tion instructed and elevated and im
proved in every way.”
The New York Sun lias the follow
ing-: “Secretary Boutwoll has been
arrested on the suit of li. ( litt'ord
Galvin, as he was about to deliver a
lecture in Steinwav Hall, Barthol
omew Clifford Galvin is an Irishman,
a graduate of Trinity College aud
received a financial education. lie
is a lawyer and member of the Can
adian liar.” Mr. Galvin, according
[ to the Sun, claims to have given Mr.
Boittwcll, in the summer of 18C!>,
a sketch of what has since been put
in practice by that gentleman as his
i '‘financial policy,” also that before
giving the secretary said sketch,
Galvin claimed to he paid for it ; by
accepting it and accepting it aud
acting upon it, lie insists that the
secretary is bound to pay its value,
which h-e lays at $2,000,000.
The Parkersburg (W. Va.) Times
says :
‘•From almost all parts of the
State the news of the last election
! results are depressing to the reptib
! deans. Ohio, Berkeley, Harrison,
j Doddridge, Wirt, and even Ixait iwha

! In a recent letter to the Baltimore
1 Sun, we have the following :
It’has feen the wont of \\ ashing-
I tonkins to wait for the sessions of
Congress, as the Egyptians wait, for
’’ , the overflowing of the Nile, 'i his is
of local tradition. It comes front
the years immediately succeeding
* the establishment of the city, when
' Washington was little else than a
■ 1 common, covered with shanties, over
" ■ which dominated the palatial public
I buildings and a tew large hotels.
' Congress then brought, “tin; city”
1 with it, as the annual migration of
1 the Persian count brings inagnifi
' ! fence to the mud of Ispahan. The
I 1 coming of Congress was an event of
I far more social importance to a town
1 ■ of 1 SjflOrt or 20,000 inhabitants than
its advent is to a city of one Ituii
■ died and twenty thousand. The
’ careless observer does not sec how
essential are the annual sessions of
1 | Congress to the city, for the differ
' j ence between Washington in mttn
-1 nier and winter is but. little, if at all,
. 1 greater than that between New
’ York in the former and in the latter
j season. Of course the city relies
solely for its vitality upon its metro
politan position, but tlie healthy
’ hoc; c-life, which was long since dc
; veloped, is now apparent every
where. The city is no longer a mere
caravansary for tho government.
