3.Three Grievous Errors.

We see during these times of excitementmany things that were belter had they bekepi hidden. For instance; we note argu

menls intended to imply or to prove thatsome particular person or class is net patri-otic, or not so patriotic as they should he, or

not so patriotic as others.Again; we find men professedly witli tlie

Administration and generally very careful to

applaud every successful move, but who are

cither so completely dominated by their par-

tisan feelings, or are wholly insincere, andwho lake occasion to say unkind smallthings about the conduct of tlie war.

Thereare yet others who are "playing”war feeling as they would the races; that is,

their utterances prove them to lie shallow

and insincere, in tins, that they decry andbelittle tlie enemy; call them cowards andignoramuses; say they have neither brainsnor courage aud if they arc to be believed,we have but tlie pretense of a war ou our

bands as the Spanish ves els are tubs, theirguas hollow alders aud their gunners incoin-petant and cowardly.

Those three things arc calculated to vex a

liberal or well informed American and are

of sufficient prominence in public prints andin general discussion to warrant a word on

these subjects.As to tbe first: there is somethingso Pbar

isaicai about it that it begets a feeling ol disgust. It is no unusual tilingto find a self-constituted patriot critic sitting in judgment,whose lorbears, so recent as the second gen-eration, first saw the light east of the Atlanticwhile he upon whom he empties the vials ofhis patriotic wrath has had his blood purifiedby a descent through thrice as many generatlons breathing the air of American freedom.What rot this is!

As to the second: this is no time to pl-iypolitics. The eyes of tlie world are nnon usand while sympathetic monarchial Europe

notes with regret the instability of tlie Span-ish government, they are hoping to be ableto discover a lack of cohesiveness here.Could they but become certain that a pro-longed war would disrupt our institutions;that our partisanship could he dependedupon to outweigh our patriotism and inter-nal dissensions through party feeling weakenand discredit our conduct of the war, we

doubt not that more than one of them wouldrejoice and to that end give present materialsupport to Spain. "Stand by tlie President"then, should he the earnest and sincere motto

of every one; partisan politics should belaidaway in camphor until after this most serioustiling that has ever come to the Nation hasbeen determined and finally disposed of.

As to third: outside of the fact that thereis no warrant for tbe statement that we are

al war with a people who lack courage, whowould care to make a boast of havingwhipped a coward?

There is enough standing against theSpaniard to render him an object of con-

tempt to an American without laying to hisaccount the charge of cowardice; it is not

necessary, in order that a proper dislike ofour enemy should possess us, that we gooutside of facts, and this we do when wesay that he is a coward; that we shouldheartily abuse him is not only natural, butproper, but in doing so, stick to facts—thereare enough of them—and do not belittle ourown victories try the false assumption in ad-vance that he is a coward, au incompetent

and in every way an unworthy toe.

To review; do not essay the role of tliePharisee; otheis may have a record that, asagainst your platitudes, may set down a “far¦iiore exceeding weight" of Americanism

ban mere vaporlngs and professionalismlo for von: forget for once that your highestluty is to your party and he manly enoughto refuse lo make political capital, for oragainst the administration; respect tlie cour-age ol the toe while you cordially hale himft his in icy we .Varies and mum"

Many of the farmers who planted theircorn a week or ten days ago will, we learn,be obliged to replant nearly their entire crop—the cold rains and continued damp weather

has caused the grains of corn to rot. — Citizen.

Additional Machinery. -The CresciteExcelsior Company has placed six new ma-

chines in their factory thus doubling itscapacity. They have also put in recently a

fillyhorse power engine. Some of the finestexcelsior that we have ever seeu is being

manufactured by the Crescite Company.

Hail.—Reports are coming in of a fall ofhail, more or less severe, at points in thecounty on Monday Inst.

In Baltimore City it wrought havoc withgreenhouse glass and the many flags thatwere unfurled.

Reports fr*m Rockville, Montgomery Co.,

state that great damage was done to thegrowing crops. In some partsof the county

tlie w heat was cut off as neat as if done by a

machine.

Nerve Wracking—On Monday after-noon last a freight tram, too long for thesiding, arrived here on the time of the 8:16pasaengr train east and the latter was re-

quired to take the siding to allow tlie freight

train to pass. After the passenger train hadpulled into the siding and stopped, a ladygot off the train and started leisurely to cross

the main track In front of the approaching

freight. She cid not see the latter and slop-

ped on the track to look around; the escapingsteam drowned the sound ot the approaching

train and It looked ns though she wouldcertainly lie run down by tlie freight engine.

The frantic shouts aud signals of the switch-

man attracted her attention only in time to

save her; she stepped off tlie track to tlieplatform, apparently the least concernedpersou thereabouts

Don’t Like It.—Somebody in a momentof untorfunatc inspiration spoke ot the

American Flag as "Old Glory" and wlist we

feel to be a depraved taste has made a fad oftlie expression. As for us, wc prefer "TheAmerican Flag” to any other expression.Tlie “Star Spangled Banner” and the “Red,White and Blue” for sentiment—'"The Amer-ican Flag’' for dignity: expressive and im-pressive, these honored entiliings will wear,

while that ot “Old Glory” will wear out. Ithas nothing to recommend it and it smackstoo mucli of "old Frederick County”—‘TheDemocratic Party”—"tlie old Republican

Party”—of which we hear so much whenpoliticians grow eloquent; in a word, we

don’t like tlie expression, nor do we believethat it will ever replace the time honoredtitles that the Nation loved and adoptedduring times that tried men’s souls.

Yankee Coolness.

Is it possible to conceive a cooler hit ofunexpectedness than that intensely striking iintermission Dial Admiral Dewey ordered !during the great fight at Manila?

"Lei’s all stop fighting and go gel some-

thing to eat," think of it It was somethingon tlie order of making two bites of a cherry;it was such a good tiling and so easy—sosure— that it was a pity to spoil it by need-lessly shortening tlie entertainment. 1 It’llkeep; let’s go take something." While war

is a serous Ihiug. it has its funny sides snuwe have au idea that it will lie quite a whilemull another happening airivee that will hr

funny ns this. It wasn I intended to be

funny; the breakfast hour had pissed audthe men were surely vo rn and hungry, butifthe hut lie had been even up to that lime,

or going against us, there would have beenno ten o'clock bile taken at that particularjuncture.

Drummed Out ok Camp. Two men

were literally drummed out of (he FirstRegiment camp on Tuesday. The first was

Private Leggett, of Comyany G. Annapolis.He enlisted a few days ago from Wo'.lsville,Frederick county. When tlie company was

ordered up to he mustered in he refun d togo Instantly there was a howl in the com-

pany street. Leggett was taken in charge bya guard, while a detail reported the facts to

Colonel Lane. He immediately gave theman a dishonorable discharge. Then fol-lowed a circus in tlie regimental camp

Leggett was stripped of lim uniform, given a

rough suit, mid escourted out, bailees andpennilcs-. al the point of tlie bayonet, whilethe so'diers beat tin pans and yelled "cow-ard!”

T. e second man to be drummed out was

Lawyer Matthew J. Herron, af Belair, whoenlisted in Company D, on May 7th * •

Herron was treated in like manner.

After theceremony a reception was held at the HotelThurmont from 1 o’clock to 2 o’clock, thebride aud groom receiving iu front of a bunkof green- Tlie Hotel was profusely decor-ated and a wedding luncheon was served.

They were the recipients of a large lot ofvery costly and handsome presents

States Attorney Win. 11. Hints instructedthe county constables Wednesday to informthe cigar dealers and restaurant keepers to

which seems to take great interest In themaud gives them more attention than an oldcluck.— Ch ronicU.

Pronunciation, —The war Is familiarizing us with proper pronunciation of nameshitherto pronounced ‘ as they were spelled”by ama jority of the people. It is somewhatdifficult to bring one’s self up to the markafter having wrongly pronounced a word,when we find it to be so vastly different."Sawn Wahn” for San Juan, for instance,

is a terror to the modest uninitiated, but thatis just It, exactly.

John Shoemaker, a fanner of this district,is said to have lost thirteen hogs trompoisoning, early last week It is probablethat strychnine was used, judging trom thesymptoms.
