All the money back is believed to be collectable. Registration. The Republican voters of Washington County have yearly suffered from the present Registration Law.

In close contest we have nioru than once lost a ticket or a candidate by the Democratic administration of this law. In our sister county of Frederick where there has been less need of its fair enforcement, the people have suffered. Last year an example was made of a nonresident Democrat in that county who practised a fraud under this law, by sending him to the IT. 8. Court where a jury convicted him and the judge imprisoned and fined him for fraudulent voting.

This law as at present applied is probably worth a hundred voters to the Democrats on election day in this county. Thus we find the names of friends stricken off or not properly transferred find people who are not residents, registered as voters and voting the Democratic ticket. Everybody then determines to watch the registration next time. Nobody does it thoroughly and again we feel the weight of it. Much can be done and in the coming contest in this county wherein we have the moat important election we have had under this Constitution we must not be cheated out of fairly won victory.

We can and will win upon a fair vote, but we must first have a fair registration. Therefore, in each district let these rules be observed First, form local committees to attend the first sitting, which will be on SEPTEMBER 1st, 2cl, 3d, 4th and 5th. Then let these committees scan the whole list and demand that all who are dead or removed be stricken off. Next gut all new voters sure then to have all who have removed secure their transfer in the proper mode. that the roter who hat mated into a new District or from another County into County MUST oo IN PERSON to the register HE FOHMEHLY RESIDED, and then go is I-KIISON to the reyuter where lie now resides and see that his name is duly registered and carried out in the latt column.

Filially, be cartful that the registration book corresponds with the poll book in every instance. Democrats attend to all these registrars often attend to these things. Let Republicans now be on their guard in time. Let us light as to-day they are lighting in Maine, against Democratic repudiation, Democratic assaults on the public credit, and tho domination of Confederate Brigadiers. The Primaries.

It will be seen that the County Central Committee has called the primaries for the liOth inst. At no time since the adoption of the Constitution of 1867, has there been a more important election before the people. The number and importance of the ollices to be tilled this fall, is greater than at any time since that date At the primaries the campaign is initiated, and is in fai-t, the most important part of the whole political programme. Then and there the people have everything in their own hands. By neglecting, therefore, to turn out a week from next Saturday, they will loose the grandest opportunity they have enjoyed for a long time, to exercise a great influence.

The people should remember that they have a duty they owe to themselves, their State and county. Upoi, them devolves the election in every district of ten good men who will reflect the average sentiment of the community in the selection of candidates. Every voter should make it a point to be present and sec to it that only good ami responsible men are sent to the County Conventions. In that way alone can we foc-l confidence in the deliberations and There is ahvas a likelihood in an important election, that a ticket will be set up and foiat- t-d on the people as if it was their own choice. They should watch this matter carefully, and if a cut and dried ticket is not satWactory to to them, break it up and elect men that will reflect the sentiments of a majority the voters in the air is still full of denunciations that have been heaped upon the whole primary system in Baltimore, and even in some of thu counties, because of tho corrupt practices, illegal voting, put up tickets, and other nefarious tricks.

The primaries, as held in our own county, have not been open to such criticisms to any great extent. i But eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. And if the people would have good men in important ollices, they must bo willing to go to some trouble and work to overcome any malign influences that may be brought to bear upon the primary elections. Let every one then, turn out and wo are sure that there ill be elected a body of men who will inspire the confidence of all. And we may look far a ticket to be nominated that no supposed Gubernatorial weight will bu able to bear down in the least degree.

The Democratic party in the extra scs sion of Congress, made a record for itself The comparison made by our esteemed cotemporary the Mail, between a domestic scandal which recently occurred in Rhode Island, and the violent and successful suppression of au independent candidate for Sheriff, which took place not long ago in Mississippi, strikes us as rather of its poetical and highly metaphorical dress the article which appeared in last week's Mail docs make the comparison, but we hardly think our esteemed Co- temporary would soberly and seriously hold them tobe parallel cases. Private quarrels do occur in the North as in the South, in which that unpleasant and clumsy weapon known as the shot gun is used, offensively and defensively. If it had been claimed that the celebrated Coz-Allston case in Georgia, where Cox brutally shot down Allston because of some business difference, was an exhibition of intolerance characteristic of the South, the strictures by our neighbor might have been regarded as seriously made. We do say that the hunting down of one candidate by another at the head of a band of followers armed with shot guns is as gross an exhibition of political intolerance as tbe history of our country will afford. Think of Mr.

Peter Maybcrry waylaying Mr. Jacob Powlus as he was going home some night and threatening that if didn't withdraw from the contest he would blow his brains out. Is it likely that this peculiar method of electioneering would improve Mr. Mayberry's chances for being our next Sheriff? Suppose further that undet those trying circumstances Mr. Powlus did conclude not to run, what could be said of a community that would turn wound and elect Mr.

Maybcrry It would be as gross an outrage in Maryland or Massachusetts as in Mississippi. The only difference is that in the first two states the thing is simply inconceivable, while in the last it is a fact. There was held at Baltimore last week, a tax-payers convention, in which nine counties were represented. It was an eminently respectable body of men, and elected as their presiding officer, Judge Merrick of Howard county. Among tho resolutions passed was the following: IV.

The next Legislature of Mary land should deference to that spirit of economy which so thoroughly pervades the popular mind, and which the times BO urgently demands, institute such legislation, ae will secure necessary reforms nod rnduce tbe expenditures of the public money to such a degree that the outlay shall be commensurable with the services rendered therefor. But, is there much probability of reform by a legislature controlled by the same men who controlled the last. What became of that $500,000 which was appropriated by the last Legislature Has it all been used legitimately on the canal Was it necessary in tho first place to appropriate that largo sum of money 1 A great many people at the time thought it was not, and think so still. We wish the tax-payers joy in their efforts to reduce taxation, but the only known way is to support and build up a watchful rival party. By voting with the Republicans this Fall, Democrats directly help the cause of lower taxation.

The Oil Democrat, of Cumberland, in speaking of the State ticket recently nominated in Baltimore, says "We are ready to give this ticket, which is a good and strong one in every respect save one, an honest, earnest and cordial support whenever we are convinced that in so doing we arc not contributing to foist upon the people of this State a second edition of the administration of John Lee Carroll. When Mr. Hamilton dispels the impression, now almost deepened to conviction, that he has surrendered to the ring for the sake of the gunbernatorial office, and deserted not only his old friends, but his former position as a Democrat, ami silently agreed to work kindly in the harness of the men who control the expiring State administration, then the oM will gladly wheel into line and give their all to tho success of the ticket." Last year a combination of Democrats aud Orecnbackers, to the astonishment of tlie whole country, swept the State of Maine. The present outlook is that the Republicans will again get control of a State they have so long regarded especially their own. The solid speeches of Secretary Sherman together with the effective activity of Blaine, Hale, Reed and Frye have done their work, and tho State may be counted on to go Republican this Fall.

Ex-Gov. Sprague ot Rhode Island and Senator Conkling had, last week, a passage of words, at the residence of the former, where Conkling had been invited by Mrs. Sprague on nome business matters. Ex- Gov. Sprague conceived himself to be a wronged man, and shot gun in hand ordered Senator Conkling out of his his house.

The Ex-Gov. has been a good deal in his cups lately. Tho Southern planters arc becoming very much exercised over the continued exodus of the negro laborers. Upwards of 7,000 have gone to Kansas alone. A committee visited that State and endeavored to induce them to return.

A society has been formed to relieve want among tho destitute negroes. A telegram has been received in this that ought to sink it so low, that nothing country st.Uing that Mra. Sartoris, (Miss it again in the confidence Nellie Grant) is dead. The Yellow fever outlook is encouraging. now the party of destruction and of The number of new cases as well as the number of deaths is decreasing.

In view of the fact that the next Presidential election may possibly be thrown into the House of Representatives, it becomes important that the Republicans should have a majority of representatives in many of tbe doubtful States, and this is what the Republicans of California are working for this fall. In tho election of a President by the House of Representatives every State rotes as a unit, and of course a majority of each delegation determines what that vote shall be. The California Republicans must elect three out of the four Congressmen to be elected this Fall, in order to get control of their intelligence indicates that they are wide awake, and will strain every nerve to achieve success. The stealing of Stewart's body is again discussed by the papers. Negotiations hare been opened with the robbers to recover the body.

Of the five robbers only Henry O. Romaine is known by lawyer through whom they have sought to negotiate is Patrick II. Jones, formerly Postmaster, and later Register of New-York. Tho sum demanded was $200,000. Judge Hilton refused to pay more than $35,000, the original reward for the return of the body.

All efforts having failed to secure both robbers and body. Judge BUtODi on July 24, re-opened negotiations for the ransom of the body without regard toJfcc conviction of the thieves. yet been can elevate good men. It anarchy, just as it was before the late civil war, which it organized and brought on. Its sole object seems to be to destroy the power and authority of tho national government, and to make it powerless to perform its rightful and constitutional functions.

Under the plea of a free ballot, it the chance to make the ballot an infamous fraud aud a shameless scandal to good government. It wants no law to protect the freedom and purity of the ballot. It is like the evil doer, who wants no law to restrain and punish his outrages and depredations on LOCAL AFFAIRS. at In not an unemployed carpenter In Hageritown; all at-work. Wm.

Its present state officers never were elected, but were foisted on an outraged people, by frauds on the ballot, so scandalous that no respectable Democrat, to-day, will either deny, justify or defend them.

A large number of In- itatlons are being scut out and Bub-commit- ees are being formed In different sections for he purpose of organizing the industries of heir respective localities with view to rep- CBcnt the same by delegations, in tbe parade. From what wo learn and know of tho meats being made, wo anticipate the grandest parade Western Maryland has ever witnessed, in numbers and grand for the cause of ndustry, the life aud blood, the bone and sinew of the land, that make a people great and pros- icroUB. Let ue have one of the old time parades of 1840-'44, when the farmer and his pco- )le came with their teams and wagons, and represented thereou the ploughman, the seed and the sower.

The reaper with cradle and sickle, the thresher i flail, aud his teams and wagons ornamented with grain, fruits and he general products of hia farm. When the lacksmith, wagon-maker, carriage-maker, cab- net-maker, carpenter, shoemaker, tin- ner, potter, baker, butcher, and the printer with his press, printing the latest edition, and every branch of industry mounted ou their wagons and exhibited the secret of their trades they passed panorama-like before the won- lering multitude. Let the industries turn out and we shall not only surprise nud astound 'Ureelves at tho progress of tbe age, but infuse tew blood in our veins with which to go ahead i we shall equal the most progressive communities. The success of this parade is al- cady assured as over thirty of the leading manufacturing establishments of Hageratown lave agreed to participate lu the parade, and assist in working it up. A number ot invlta- lons have been ecnt to manufacturing estab- islimcnU abroad; it Is also expected that a arge number of our farmers will also partici- o.

With a single dxception every Industry hat has been waited upon by thu committee icartily endorsed and agreed to join in the pa- ade, the probabilities are that Hagerstown lone will be represented in the parade i nearly one hundred industries, an the coiuiuit- ee in charge of this matter nnd the number of ndustries not only away beyond their expccta- ion but nearly double this number, nud from be favors with which the project has been re- eivcd they havo every reason to 'jelieve, that a arge majority svill joiu the parade.

Wth. The Sharpsburg Enterprise, Terrible terrible murder oc- currcd last week In the Emmlttiburg district, Frederick County. The arc as follows On Tuesday morning, the 5th of August about seven o'clock, James L. Wetxcland Felix Mnnshoucr were seen engaged In conversation near Mr. Wm.

Ron I Eel's, brollicr-ln-law of Wclzol, who lives about 2J- a miles below Em- mlttsburg. From this point they started up the road and were seen together by Mr. Wm. Koontz. This is the last that was seen of Wctzel until his body was found.

Munslioucr states that at this point Wctzel left hhn and walked In the direction of Mr. Myers' woods, which IK located about 3 miles cast of Eminitts- burg, and not far from the spot the two men were seen conversing; he Insists that this Is the lust he saw of Wetzel. About 'J o'clock on the same day Munshouer seen by Charles Troxel coming from the direction Myers's woods with a double barrel shot-gun on his sliouldur. About 11 o'clock he was at Motter's station and remained there until 4 o'clock in the afternoon, then went to Rcutzcl's aud was not seen again until Friday morning, when he arrived in Emraittsburg and purchased aaultof clothing from Issac Hydcr tt Son. On Sunday he was again at Kcntzel's, and In reply to a question from Mr.

J. T. Knode, stated that he had not seen Wetzel since he parted with him on the road the Tuesday morning previous. On Monday morning Munshouer was arrested on suspicion and taken before Squire Stokes, who subsequently released him as there was not sufficient evidence to hold him nnder arrest. During this exciting time, dilllgcnt search was being made by a large number of persons.

On Tuesday morning the grave of the unfortunate man was found by Daniel Roop In Mr. Myers' woods, the same it will be remembered, towards which Munshouer stated that be saw Wctzel going on tho Tuesday morning previous, and the same woods from which Munshouer was seen comig from by Charles Troxel about 9 o'clock on the same Tuesday morning with a double barrel shot-gun on his shoulder. The finding of the grave caused great excitement, aud it was but a short time before a considerable crowd had gathered together. Mr. W.

11, Ashbaugh opened the grave and recognized by the general appearance tho of Jas. Wctzel. Nearly the entire face was shot away, the only part remaining being tho upper part of the forehead; the load entered back of tbe left ear and made an opening about inch in circumference. The grave si-emed to have been scooped out with a shovel to the depth of 18 inches, and was carefully covered with leaves aud brush. As soon as Mr.

Ashbaugh recognized the remains as that of Wetzel, he started in bcarch of Munshouer and found him in field near by going the direction of the woods. Mr. Ashbaugh Informed Munehouer that he had a warrant for his arrest, aud that he had just found the body of Wctzel, to which Munshouer replied "Is that so Where did you find it Thu prisoner was then taken to the grave, where he quietly viewed the body, but made no remarks, to all appearances being perfectly unconcerned. After a short time haO elapsed Mr. Knode spoke of putting the body in a large box i had been brought to the place, to whicli replied that the body should first be wrapped In a blnuket.

MunsUouer was brought to Frederick on Wednesday night by officer Ashbaugh and com initted to jail to await the action of the Grand Jury. Wetzel was about US years of age, and at times worked at huckstering and fence making. He is reported to have been, except when under the influence of liquor, a quiet and or derly citizen. Felix Muunhouer, who is accused of the murder, a man about ISO years of age, and for nearly two years past has led a very dissolute life. County County Com misbioucrs met on Tuesday of last appropriated to Mr.

Sol. Jenkins and ff 150 to James H. Exline, the gentlemen from Hancock who were attending Court at the time the Washington House was down and who were so severely injured by that lire. Mr. Jenkins has a family of a wife aud nine children, Mr, Kxliuc a wife and rive children.

In view of tho larger familv and more serious lujuries of Mr. Jenkins It was thought proper to give him a little mojc. A number of petitions were handed in asking the Commissioners to do something. Tho money ippro- priatcd, while not a great deal, will be of sonic service and will mark tho public appreciation of the disaster that beiel these gentlemen, while in tho public service without pay.
