ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE OF MARYLAND
The members of the legislature favorable to
retrenchment and reform, have issued an ad-
dress to the people of the state, which will be
found in another part of to-day's paper. They
declare, in explicit terms, that they have not
been influenced by party considerations in the
course which they have taken on these impor-
tant measures, and recommend, that, at the
next election, nominations for the Senate and
House of Delegates be made of persons So
lemnly pledged to 90 in favor of retrenchment
and reform, and without reference to party
distinctions. With this recommendation we
entirely concur, as we'll as in the statement
that the objects in view can be effected only
by means of convention of the people. On
these grounds let the battle be fought next fall,
and we shall see whether the cause of the peo-
pie will not be triumphant. We shall continue
to go heart and hand in favor of the call of
convention; and as ma ority of the members
OF the legislature which has just closed its ses-
sion nave refused to permit public sentiment to
be expressed directly for or against conven-
ton, let the question be tried in the election of
senators and delegates who are to be chosen at
the election next fall.


we received copy of the address on Tues
day evening, but too late for yesterdays paper.
We commend the address to public attention.


SUDDEN DEATH. Mrs. Lydia Challis, of
Cincinnati, died very suddenly few davs AGO.
She had just returned from neighbours, where
she had been on some errand, and whilst stand.
ing at bureau, turned to the physician, who
was in attendance on her sick husband, and
with question half uttered, fell and instantly
expired She had previously enjoyed good
health. Thus was the transition from life to
death almost as quick US thought, and without
a moments warning.
