TBCKSOAT MORNING, August 21st, IfT3.

RV The failure of the mails to reaelios Monday and Tuesday nights last has

necessitated a resort to our local resources

for news palmltm, but, unhappily, noth-

ing that we have beard of Las transpiredin our midst since our last Isaac or is now

occurring, the floods of rata excepted,which call* upon os for special notice or

notice of any kind. We can, of coarse,

go ahead, like our city cotcroporarics, and

mnnnfrtetmre news as we go, but besidesthe inconvenience of taking back and ex-

plaining, as we should be forced to do whenthe truili camo to the surface, wc reallyknow nothing of local or other import at

present worth lying about. Our readers,therefore, will be kind enough this weekto overlook the absence of our usual news

budget and to credit us with a regret, thatwe hare not been able to do better. Allthis, kc arc confident, they will do when

1 we iufw’tn them, that in order to be at our

post we gallantly breasted ibis morningthe "ragin’canawl” which lies athwart the

passage from our Lome to the place of our

business duties. As grieving after "spiltmilk” is notoriously unprofitable, and thelaughing always healthier than the cryingphilosophy, we congratulate ourselves, incommon with other planters, that our to-

bacco crops are not suffering for sny morewot at present. Wheat not yet undercover is growing off finely and both our

mills and our swamp fencing, when lastheard from, were still going—swimmingly.

Democratic State Nominees.—Ticdemocratic Party of Maryland, throughits duly authorized representatives, and inconformity to its ancient forms, has spo-ken, and it is now the duty of its adhe-rents throughout the State, whatever theirpersonal predilections may have been, to

mobilize at once, march to the front andtake their places under the flag. What-ever our disappointments here consequentupon the failure of Col. Dent to receivethe nomination for Comptroller, (and fewexpected a different result), wc feel our-selves fully justified in stating, that thedemocratic party of St. Mary’s, thoughlately accustomed to defeat and still in aminority, (a minority bow created it ishere unnecessary to state), will do its duty,its whole duty in the pending State con-

test, and Jo it with a will! Apart fromtheir being the nominees of the party. Col.Woolvobo and Mr. Franklin are both en-titled to fullest democratic confidence—-both show clean hands in the administra-

the places for which they hare been chosenand both arc and hare been true democratsand true party men. In no section of thePlate will Wootrono and Franklin re-ceive a more csrnrst endorsement thanwill be accorded them by tho democraticparty of St. Mary s at the coming election,and by no members of this parly, we haveexcellent moans ofknowing, will they bemore warmly supposed than by .lonx F.Drst and his pcisonal friends. It but re-mains to us to thank, as we most cordial-ly Jo, such of our sister counties, portionlarly KieJcrick, Charles and Calvert, asremembered “us and ours” in the late con-vention, and to a-suto them, that though !Pt. Mary has fallen al.i* I from her oncehigh estate, “thru's life in the old lau,!

y.t!"

The Stvtk Democratic DlattormThe following resolutions were adopted

by the late Democratic State Conventionand will, of course, constitute the platformof the party in the pending contest. Itwill be seen, that the representatives oftheMaryland democracy have intermitted allreference to the now dead and buried is-sues growing out of the three latest amend-ments to the constitution and have addres-sed themselves alouc to the living, practi-cal questions of the hour. Having ac-cepted in good faith at the late NationalConvention the rights and securities withwhich these amendments surrounded tjreblack race in this country, an J placed thatacceptance upon record, the democracy,state and National, now enter* nnimbar-rassed upon its old mission of defendingpopular aud Slate Rights against Federalaggressions, against iniquitous tariff lawsand against all the monstrous and mani-fold monopolies which at present oppressand plunder the many for the benefit of afew. As of old, it firmly sets its faceagainst tbs rock less donation of the publicproperty for the benefit of greedy andgrasping corporations, itcondemns ail steal-ing, whether in high or in low places, andespecially that giant steal of the century,the “back salary grab” of the late Con-gress, and, pledging itself to a strict obe-dience to the fundamental law, to the fur-therance of rational reform and the adop-lion ofrigid economy in the administrationofall representative trusts. “a careful•eratioy of official conduct and a promptaud vigorous punishment of official dclin-qucnciss,” it re-affirms its old regard forour free school system of education andautooneca its determination to make lib-eral provision for its farther extension sadimprovement. The following are the res-olutions of the Convention:

Petal re J. Tint the Democratic Conser-vative party of Maryland, in Con rent ion•mcmbled, reaffirm* its adhesion to tbolong-established principles of the IVmoe-raey. ft recognises and rapport* the fe-ral eonstilnthmal aathority of the FederalGovernment. bat insists apon a strict con-struction of the Federal Constitution asncc snry to the preserration of the re-ferred rights of the States and people.—It opposes centralisation as the moat insid-uous and dangerous enemy of popularrights, and wifi eontinae to denounce itin every guise in whteh it may apj>ear. —

It believes in the capacity of the peoplefor self-government. It insists upon equaland exact justice to all men. It is opposedto monopolies, and will prevent, by everymeans in its power, all specific legislationfor tho benefit of particular interests, whichmay be injurious or prejudicial to themany, and is pledged to promote, by ben-eficent and judicious legislation, the pros-perity of the whole people.

R>pJred. That the several departmentsof our Government, legislative, judicialand executive, are independent in theirseveral spheres under the Constitution,and any attempt by any of them to usurpauthcri'y is destructive of the constitution-al rights and independence of the others,and should be resisted as dangerous tocivil liberty.

Petal red. That our tariff laws, as ad-justed and enforced by the Republicanparty, are discriminatory and injurious tothe masses, and justice demands their re-vision with a view to revenue alone, andnot to tax the community for the benefitof particular intere-’s.

Retail'<l, That the wealth of this coun-

try is mainly derived from the products ofits labor, and every just measure tendingto improve the condition and promote theadvancement of the laboring classes shouldreceive sympathy and will command ourcordial support.

Prtvlerd, That we earnestly deprecatethe unjust and discriminating laws underwhich the agricultural interests of thecountry have suffered, and wo herebypledge the best efforts of the party to ob-ta n for them a redress of grievances andcq:al justice.

Retired, That still adhering to the pol-icy of preserving the public land for actu-al settlers who will improve and till them,we denounce all gifts of such lands by theGovernment to incorporated companies asan unscrupulous and dangerous waste ofthe public property, fully deserving thecondemnation of all patriotic and justcitizens.

Resolved, That the late action of Con-gtess in enacting a law for the increase of(heir own ami the salaries of other officersof the Government is. in view of the de-pressed condition of the laboring taxpay-ers of the country, upon whom the burdenmostly rests, utterly unjustifiable, and itsimmediate and unconditional repeal shouldbe demanded by the people.

RvsiJred, That ns the power, prosperityand perpetuity of the State must dependupon the virtue and intelligence ofits peo-ple, we pledge the party to a liberal pro-vision for the extention and improvementof the free school system, already so aus-pieiou-dy inaugurated by the Democratic-Conservalive party in this State.

R> fJred, That we recommend and shallexpect the most rigid economy in everydepartment of ihe State Government, andof official conduct, and a prompt and vig-orous punishment of all official delin-quencies.

Re> Jred. That in presenting this plat-form of principles and placing thereoncandidates whose past record is an earn-est of their devotion to the time-honoredprinciples herein announced, we challengeand feel confident of the sympathy andsupport of all honest, patriotic citizens,without regard to past differences, and wea>k all who agree with us to unite inmaintaining the honor, integrity aud dig-nity of our beloved State.

“ATurn to Salt Watkh.” —UnJcrtheabove caption, a correspondent of theFredericksburg Virginia Star , (probablja former resident of our county.) underdate of the 13th of August, instant, thusspeaks of a recent trip to the “blue Poto-mac,” the St. Mary’s watering places onits banks, the condition of our crops, etc.

For a trip combining health and pleas-ure with economy. Iknow of nothing inroach of our section that can compare withit. Leaving Qnantico on that commodi-ous and thoroughly appointed steamer, theGeorgeanna. Capt. Fields, than whom amore popular, courteous and efficient gen-tleman does not sail our waters, assistedby Purser Chewing of our State, who has,I learn, in the short time he has held hispresent position, made for himself and linea host of friends, we steamed down ourglorious old Potomac in company with avery select excursion party from NVashing-lon, bound for Point Lookout Maryland,where wo arrived about light next morn-ing, remaining until G o’clock, p. in ,

giv-ing her passengers lire entire day for bath-ing and recreation.

It is thought by many that this placewill upon the completion of the SouthernMaryland RkiTroad from Washington tothis point, rival Cape May. as a p’aco ofresort. Certainly the bathirg cannot besurpass.-! anywhere, for while the surf isall that could bo desired, the slope of thebeach is gradual and no fears are ever en-tertained of that dangerous undertow, sofatal on the Atlantic coast. I learn thereis ample capital waiting in Washington,to be invested as soon as “a title clear toCottagers at Foist Lookout” can be given.

This being the weekly excursion trip ofthe Georgeanna from Washington, veryfew landings were maie on the river, chiefamong which, however. 1 mast mentionMarshall’s on the Potomac about fifteenmiles above Point Lookout. This is com-paratively a new place of resort, judgingfrom the elegant and well-finished hoteljust completed. Lathing houses, newand substantial wharf, tastefully arrangedgrounds, and last, but by to mean* leastof the many indications that success hasattended tbe efforts of the enterprisingproprietor. Mr. R. Marshall, was thebright smiling foee* of his guests, whocame on board to meet friends from thecity, with loud expressions of salisfoetioowith alt the arrangement* for their healthaud comfort. To those who are food offishing I say go to Marshall's. There youcan be accommodated at any boar withlost. Uses anl bait, by tbe fishermen iiv-

lag on St. George's Island near by. who. ¦by the way, are supposed to know thewhereabouts of the sbeep’e-bcad. treat, jtailor, rack, croker, and Spanish oaaek-eral. which fuel Mod, to my mind, jrarpusgf ell the others la richness offlavor. Then you have aa abundanceof crabs sad oysters taken fresh from thewater and banded over to an experiencedcook to be served for the gratification ofaa appetite. But the half hoar allowedby oar accomodating commander in whichto look sroand and inspect with an eye tothe future, has passed very rapidly, as allsuch pleasant moments do, and we aresummoned on board by the shrill whistleof oor steamer; the voice of the jolly falmale sounds the familiar "allaboard** andaway we glide down the St. George’s river,rounding the lower point of St. George’sIsland out into oar noble old PotomacOar next boding being Lcoaardtown, thecounty scat of St. Mary’a, while we aresteaming up against a sharp northwester,I will tell yoa something of the crops inthis county.

Owing to the protracted dronth. whichhas lasted through the rummer, until veryrecently, the wheat crop, a greater portionof which was thrashed during ray stay,has been a third and in many cases onehalf less than the straw or its appearancebefore harvest would indicate. The cornwas seriously injured by the worm. lanearly efery eaae it bad to be repbntcdand in many instances a second and thirdplanting bad to be resorted to. However,the recent fine rains have much improvedit. and the prospects, I think, are better thanthey would hare been had the first plant-ing stood. Of tobacco, the money crop,not more than half could be planted, bitwhat was, is looking well. Oats bettrthan an average.

Erery where I went through the com-ty, at the landings, stores and fannhomes,that champion plow of Messrs. Hunts’ &

Frost, ‘Farmers Friend,’ looms up in thedistance. They bare nearly supersededthe nsc of all other plows in this sceion,and a stranger knowing of them, viiitingthat county, would think from heariog thename so often, that some Rotfcsciiild orVanderbilt had donated his entire wealthfor the benefit of the farming rotuiuunily,thereby earning for himself the title of ,"Farmers Friend.”

Hero we are at L-onardtown and bythe flushing lanterns I dcsciy the familiar 1form of my friend, Mr. 11. Moore, thepopular proprietor of Moore’s hotel, whoinforms me that during the summer bishouse has been crowded with visitors fromWashington, another reas-m, why he con-templates enlarging bis hotel and build-ing cottages sufficient to accommodate allwho may wish to partake of the delicaciesalways to be found on his table. Againwe are off. having made our last landinguntil we roach Washington. I shall saygood night, and tu~n in, perhaps to dreamof the manv good things left behind.

Yours,Talcott.
