wily-The order offered in the Maryland
Legislature, requiring tho national find to be
displayed from the State Nouse during the
sitting of the present session of that body s
was most consistently, rejected. The men
who compose both branches of t'ae Legisla•
ture regarded the stars and stripes as the
symbol of tyranny and a'pprcssion during the
war, and it is cot likely that they have
changed their views since its close.
In the Maryland House of Delegates
last week, Mr. Syoster presented a memorial
from Thomas A Boo.llt. Secretary and 'Teas,
urer of the Antietam National Cemetery, and
seventy-fire citizens of Washington county,
praying an appropriation of money for the
purpose of removing to the Cemetery the
remains of the Confederate dead. It etas
retorted to the Committee of Ways and
Means.
Mr. Seyster and his flint's should not be
partial. They should ask an appropria
tion for a bounty to living confed.erates, who
eudured so many hardships and privations
fur the success of the "lost cause."
.Secretary Stauton's suspension was
passed upon on Monday by the Senate in

vote of yeas to 7 nays; that, "having can•
sidered the evidence; and reasons given by the
President in his message of the 20th of De
cember last for the suspensioefroni office of
the Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton,
we do not - concur in such suspension." The
Senate ordered that General Grant, Secreta
ry Stanton and the President be offieially
notified of its action. Of course Gen. Grant
will vacate the office be has so ably filled
since Ms. Stanton's uncalled for suspension,
and resign its functions to that officer.—
What course the President will pursue a

that he will refuse to recogn;se Mr. Stanton

After alluding to the grateful aoknowl- I

the continued prosperity of the country, the
titiAti.iii - of the - fluaneial - condition of. the
State is discussed with clearness by the Gov
ornor, and a satisfactory exhibit of the revs
e•lues and expenditures is made.

The Governor then alludes to the want of
rtoif,rmity and constant change of books in•
our common schools, and says these are mat
ters of serious inconvenience and needless
expense to the poor, and might easily be
remedied by judicious legislation. The
chief aim of our system of common schools
is to place theadvantages of an education
within the reach of all the children of the
Commonwealth; and when it is considered
that intelligence and virtue are the principle
safeguards of our free institutions, this aye-
tem earnestly claims the fostering care . of
the Legislature.
The Message reccommends the adoption
of a general railroad law, and the reduction
of charges for passage and freight to mini
mum rates.
Members or the Legislature are requested
to avoid the hasty and careless legislation
whieh marked the close of last session.
Au adequate pr'eparatioo in time of peace
as a preservative against tbe probabithies
and contingencies of war is recommended.—
This—o-ft—repeated--a-xiotn—svas not sufficiently

ly unprepared. If it bad been otherwise,
the war would have been of comparatively
short duration, if not crushed in its incip

A history of the working ofthe Suidlers'
Orphans' schools is given, which is entirely

More stringent laws for the protection of

Department, are recommended.

Governor heartily favors the Recoils ruction

After referring to the working of several
kiwi on lhe made of collecting taxes, and re
commending amendments to the same, Mr.

' To relieve the doubt entertained in some
quarters of the provisions of the 'act which
passed lately relative to the tax on distilled
spirits, the following copy of the bill in fall
is telegraphed as it was submitted to the
President
Be it enacted, dr,— That from and after
this date no distilled spirits shall be with
drawn or removed from any ,Warehouse for
purposes of transportation, rectification,
change of package, exportation, or for any'
other purpose whatever, until the full tax on
such spirits shall have been plc], and all acts
and park of acts inconsistent with the pro
visions thereof are hereby repealed.
The following are the remarks in full of
the Chairman of Committee on Ways and
Moans on the bill when it came back from
the_Scnate:
Mr Schenck : The House will observe
that all the Senate has done is to propose to
strike out the words •in bond," so that in
stead of providing that no distilled spirits in
b Ind shall he withdrawn from any ware
home without thu payment of the tax, the
bill provides that no distilled spirits shall
be wiihdrawn or removed from- any ware
house for the purpose of transportation. ho.,
without the payment of the tax. The effect
of that verbal amendment is to remove some
possible ambiguity. The Senate Committee
on Finance, as well as the Senate, seemed to
Wink that by using the words "in bond"
there might be a que•Con whether our
remedy reached warehouse A. t do not
quite agree with them, but if it makes any
alterations in the bill, or gives a little more
preeisiou in the exact, direction in which
we desire to go, it abolishes the warehouse
system. •
ts.,The patriotic course thus far pursued
by Gen. Mead since resuming his new com
mand, has.created intense dissatisfaction a•
mong the old rebel leaders in that district.
the announcement that he would carry out
the reconstruction laws passed by Congress
has filled Johnson's supporters with dismay,
and destroyed their only-remaining hope of
defeating the Constitutions giving equal
rights to all, and securing the South to the
noble cause of Liberty and Loyality. All
honor to the hero of Gettysburg. Let him
remain firm and he will receive the thanks
of every loyal man in the country.

POULTUY DYING.—The "chicken epidem

tried in one instance and the remedy proved
effectnal.

'John Lesher, son of Mr. Jacob Lesher, of

him, fracturing his skull and otherwise se.
riouslr injuring him. Ile remained in an

his relief, and we are pleased to learn that he
was doing well at last accounts and in a fair
way to recover from the effects of his inju

calf perished in the flames. During the fire,
the house of Mr. Beard, a neighbor, was en
'tered by a burglar, who is supposed to have
fired the building for the purpose of plun.
der, and who forced an entrance into his safe
and carried off $-'•5 in gold, two watches, and
other valuables. Mr. Buhrman's loss is es
timated to be not less than $3OOO, upon
which we regret to 'learn he had no insu
rance. The reflection of the fire from the
building was seen in this place, and many

A NEAR LOOSE.—Yesterday afternoon
considerable excitemeot was created in North
Queen street, by the appearance on that
thronged thoroughfare of a wild bear. • The
animal, it appears, WAS brought to this city
a few days ago, and gummed in the stable
of the Merrimac House. Yesterday a col•
bred boy was teasing the bear, when he
broke the rope- by which he was secured.
The boy started on a rapid run, the bear
after him, both intent, apparcotly, of getting
out of hum's way. The bear finally-emerg
cAtto North Queen street, and his appear
ante created as much consternation amen,

dens as a hundred pound shell
would have if seen rolling along that street,
Rverybody gave bin) a very wide berth, seek

bear secured. as much frightened as the peo
ple. The scare was mutual. A large crowd
collected, and after a chase of sneral squares
his bear-ship was finally securn in a yard to
Duke street, and restored to his quarters.
