SLAVERY IN MARYLAND. Under this head the Baltimore American says: | A few days sgo an advertisement appeared in’ the Philadelphia Ledger, stating that there were wanted at Roundtop, Kent County, Md., fifty girls to pick orpareand pack peaches. Tho girls were assured that they could earn from $1.50 to $2 per day, and that good hoard copld b abtained at the place for $2 per week. A large numberof girls wereattracted by, this advertise- ment, and made spplication to the Philadelphia agent, of the proprietor of the Roundtop orchard. About 300 applied, but of this nymper only fitty wore selected, This was on Wednesday. Early Thuradsy morning the fifty girls appeared, and were sent by rail to Baltimore, and from here ‘they took & boat, o Roundtop. When they ar- rived there on Monday morning they found about 600 girls already emplosed. The girla at work at Roundtop stated that they, too, were promised high wages and cheap board in order to entice them to the place. Upon arriving there, -however, they discovered that both the high wages and cheap board were delu- gions. They wora about £ftcen hours a day, and eprn, instead of $1.50, only from 15 to 20 cents. Their bosrd was miserable. Thoy Were com- pelled to subsist npon fruit which is not fit to be eaten by human beings, and at night to sleepon beda of hay and straw, Many of them refused tho food offered them at firat, but thoy either had to eat this refuse of the orchards or starve. Maoy of them stated that theycoull scarcely sleep nt night, as they wero in ah almost half- starved condition: They would gladly return to their homes, but they had no funds, and thero was no other way of obtaining transportation. ‘The dresses of many of them were reduced to rags, but tha money which they earn is not suffi- cient for them to parchass clothing. Upon hearing this tale, about eighteen Phila- delphis girls, who had barely enough money to carry them back as far as Baitimore, determined to return home. They made up & collection among themeelves, and by this means succeeded in raising enough money for their transporta- tion. « The eighteen girls_accordingly left Roundtop Friday evening, leaving behiud them thirty-two of their companions, who unfortunately had not sufficient funds to také them to Baltimore. Upon arriving in this ¢city on Saturday morning they were entirely destitute. Theyhsd no money with which to pay their fare to Philadelphia, and not acent to procure any food. This was the more distressing, as they had not tasted a mor- sel of any food since noon on Friday. At the wharf they inquired what they should do, but there was no_one to gire them advice. At last they approached an old gentleman, whose coun- tenance seemed to indicate charity, and to him one of the girls cenfidentially narrated the tale. TUpon bearing the story, the old gentloman—who said that he felt’ for them—advised them to go to the Mayor’s office, who would give them trans- portation to Philadeiphia. He directed them tp the City-Hsll. = Mayor Vaneant interested himself greatly in their bebalf, and asked them many questions concerning their departure from home und ar- nival at Roundtop. After giving them somo wholesome advice Mayor Vansant handed each of the gitls seveuty-five cents out of his own pocket to procure & meal. Each of the gurls was then supplied with 2 pass to Philadeiphia, and Mr. Boverley Diggs, the Mayor's detective, was sent to condiict the giris to” the depot and pro- vide them with accommodations. They all left for Philadelphin Saturday afternoon, . With ono exception, the girls wers from 16 to 20 years of age. Onc of them was a lady about 80 years old. IEis expected that the otber girls from Philadel- Ehiu. who were compeiled to remain behind, will e heroas soonas they get enough money to bring them. CURIOSITY, GRATIFIED, A long-haired, sallow-complexioned individ- ual, arriving at the Aurora (Ind.) depot the other day, cansed no little gosaip in the village. He was mysteriously_silent about his name and business. - Discnssion was rife whether ho was Judgo Kelley, Theodore Tilton, dr Sergeant Bates. All expected eomething remarkable of him, Finally all agreed that he was an Ohio politician come down to talk on tho currency question. They were ready to give him a re- respectful hearing. At 7 o’clock their curiosity rbached a climax, as he emerged from his hotel and mounted a dry-goods box in the market square. Doth paorties cheered him, for each thought he was their friend. When silence was reached he began: &2 s “LapiEs AND GENTLEMEN: I came to your beantiful little_city heralded by no flourish of baoners or double-leaded announcements in the newspapers. The experience of a lifesime has taught me that the fine perceptions and delicate. faculties of the American people will discover merit and appreciate it noder wnatever circum- Btances it may appoar. _As I look upon your up- torned faces to-night, I am assured that you are no exceplions to the genetal rule.

Some ‘broken windows in the neighborhood ; a pervad- ing odor of ancient eggs which still hangs about the place, and splinters of wood scattered about the square, alono remain to remind the Auro- rana of the visit of the Cleveland corn-doctor, GOOD ENOUGH FOR A MOTHER-IN-LAW. The Oshkosh Northwestern says : Half a mile gouth of the Vinland Baptist Charch stands a farm-house on the wes! side of the road, on & elight knoll, somewhat back from the besutifal “ ridgo road " which traverses that romantic lo- cality. It was here that occurred a little bit of romance on Sunday, which commenced with & hargewhipping, had a runaway for an interlude, and wound up with & wedding. A "widow lady resides in the aforementioned mansion with her daughters, ons or more of whom have arrived st & marriageable age, and of course are the recip- l-ients of more or less attention from hopeful :i!:ri expectant young men of marriageable inten- s, Mary Jane was a young ladyv of 17 sammers, rather atiractive, and had melted the stony heart of & young man named C——, & carpenter by trade, formerly of this city, but stho at pres- ent residesio Fond du Lac. C— had made frequent visits to the house, and courted AMsry Jans to the displeasure of the old lady, who finally secured A horsewhip, which she con- cealed in the ususl hiding-place—the mattress of the bed, and threatened if ‘‘’e hever came near the 'ouse agnin she would thrash 'im with- inI:L htnsck ?i' ’m':lle." ast Sunday, however, the young gentlema: had come all the way from melfldngljc- to vis:'“t the nh]qct of hisundying flame. ~He drove, with a8 king new.rig, ugh she gate and up the driveway to the house.

He finally drove to the zate, and ag he jumped out 10 open it.she caufht him by the throat, cut him fearfully over the faca and bead with the whip, and used thé fellow up complétely.

The affair caused quite a ripple on the surface of society in the Town of Violand, and created mucn gossip and excitement in that usually quieb vicinity. DIDN'T KNOW 'HIS BUSINESS. A well-known clergyman’ was crossing Lake Erie, many years ago, upon one of the lake steamers, and, sceing a small lad, at the wheel, steering the boat, uccosted him as follows : ¢ Ay son, you appearto be & small boy to steer 80 largo a boat.” “Yes, sir; but you see that I can do it, though.” + Do you think you understard your business, myson?” ¢ Yes, if, J thigk I do,” : # Can you box the compass?” “ Yes, sir.’ - ' +- Let me hoar you box it.” Doy boxes the compass. ** Weli, really, you can do it !

The New York Herald makes a suggestion with reference to meat for England. It says: The cable dispatch about a meeting held in London to discuss the causes of the high price of meat in that market is partly explained by facts which appear in the latest English papers. Government restrictions on the importations of foreign cattle ' directly tend fo keep up the price of beef. These regulations are now un- sparingly enforced; and all cattle arriviog at English ports are quarantined for twelve hours, and if the foot-and-mouth disease or any other malady shows itself in that time in a single ani- mal of the herd *hay; are alldestroved. Astrange éxception (for *which wo sufficient reason is fiiven) is made in favor of Irish cattle. Of that ind, only the members of tho herd that are af- fected are Lilled, the rest bemg sent to market. The London meeting adopted a rule protesting agaiust such severe restrictions. It is not im- probable that the butchers are at the bottom of this public demonstration. and that tbey aim to justify their exorbitant rates by throwing the whole blame on the Government. One experi- ment in the supplying of fresh meat for London is vet tobe tried. That is the importation of car- cases from the foreign cattie-producing: coun- tries in fast steamers. That this counld be done there ig no doubt, after what we know of the achievements of refrigerators.. Whether it would pay is snother question, which the actual test only can answer. EQUINE APPETITE. The Baltimore Gaztle tells this siory of equme saffering: *‘This morning the frame of a horse attached to a dilapidated country wagon was left standing unattended near the Lexington Blarket.

We have forgot- ten the number of millions which it is calenlated are spent in going up and down, and walking to aud fro, in Europe—frittered away on gewgaws, juvested in silks which neither pay & revenae to the Government nor a profit to the American Shop-keepers, oxpended on foreign steamers in tne outward and homeward passages, étc., etc. It never ocours to ‘the growlers, wé presume, that we. are getting from the other wide, all the time, more than we send over tnere. In the first plice, there are always here, with aonually increasing numbers, a considerable throng of tourists who spend liberally. They are neirly all of the richer class; for America is nota “country in which a foreiguer can live more cheaply than he can at home. Ot course this claga cannot offset the throng we annuaily send to Europe and steadily support there, bus every incoming vessel brings its tribute of immigrants, who come here to remain. We have no statis- tica, but it must be true'that tneae, who bringall their worldly possessions, import, in the aggre- gate, an amouni far surpassing wbat we 'ox- bort among our travelers. We seud by fifties, they come by thousands. They come with their litle hoards accumulated throngh frugal geverations, and these lt- tle b amouut, in a sinzle year, to & very large sum.. Buu they briug something bet- tor than money—life and indusiry. LEvery man and womap, a8 a rule, is an addition to tha pro- ductive capital of the conutry. How incaleulably large bave been the contributiona of the immi- grant to the wealh, tho greatness. and the com- fort ¢f America! The immigrant has dug all al} our cana's, buoilt all our railroads,” and beea the burden-bearer in ll enterprises requiring biawn and bone. Thera are nine chances in ten that the person who cooks what we eat, Wsits upon us attable, milks the cow, hoes the corn, drives the coach, gfooms the horse, mows the hay, mans the vessel, digs the ditch, spins the cotton, washes the clothes, and makes the bed, is a foreigner. Indeed, it is more than probable that a fail moiety of all the money which Ameri- 8 nd abroad i3 won from the profits oo foreign latbr. ‘It is well enough to remember this, and not o grudge the money which buys abroad 8o much pleasare. instruction, and health for our weary and overworked paople. There is another class of fault-finders who have their little fling at the wanderers—a fling somewhat worn by long use, but stiil quite ef- fective when employed against, or amoug, the thougbtless. The stay-at-homes need some- thing, of coutse, to console them, and to keep themselves in countenance; and we hear from their wise lips such utterances as these : ** They baa much better stay at hume and travel in their own country than to go to Enrope.” “I should be ashamed to go to Europe butil'I had seea some- thing of America.” *If I hadn’t seen Niagara, or yhe Mammoth Cave, or the muiulfll Hiver, Ishouid be ashamed to” travel abroad.” " Any one of these wise statements flung ata man’s head, is regarded as sufficient to settle bim if he i3 a wanderer abroad, and happens not to have been a great traveler at home. 1t is suppased, indead, %o decide the whoje matter—to condemn the man who travels into foreiga lands, and jus- tify the man who ssicks to his own door-yard and does not travel apywhere. W = Well, travel in one's own conutry is very de- sirable, if a man has the time and can afford the expenge and the hardship; but for a New Yorker to 5o to Niagara involves the travel of 900 miles b Boad back by rail. To see Chieago or any of the Western cities costs 2,000 miles of travel. 'fo see the Yosemite invoives 6,000 miles of travel. There is nota great object of nataral intereat in the country a sight of which does not cost a great deal of money and a great deal of fatigge, Ta go to the Far Weat, to climb the Colorado Mountain, or to visit any of the great objects of natural cuziosity in that region, in- volves bardship that ladies particularly, unless .| excoptionally rugged, caunoy endure at ail. And when we have seen zll, what have we seen ? Grand things, to_be sare—wonderfal works of Nature—and nothing else. Our cities are new, and with & brief history, confined almost entirely to the details of their quick material develop- ment. We see everywhere the beginnings of the life of & great nation, and they bear a strik- ing resembiance to each other. Now, when s man finds himself with money to spend, he likes to go_where he can get the moat for 1t. He takes himself and his family to Europe, and finds bimse!f everywhore op historic ground. He can hardly travel 25 miles without meeting with something—some majes:ic river, some castle, pome old cathedral, some gallery of art, some palace, some auncient battle-gronnd— which charma his attention. To the traveler, London is & vast store-hoase of historic asaocia- tione. Cheapside, the Btrand, Piccadilly, Threadneedle strest—all these aro names just as familiav to him a8 Broadway; aod a hundred nemes of literary men, statesmen, poets, phi- losorhers, are associated with them. West~ minster Abbey is a place to meditate and ween in. To git down in this statelv and ballowed pile is to sit down with the worthiest of fifty gen- erations. The Tower, the great Museum, the picture-galleries, the ten thousand other ab- jects of interest, compel the traveler to feal that he is in another.world, to whoss wesléh almost countless geoerationa have contributed.
