come TO pass that many enemies were raised up
against the Bishop; and when perhaps his crime


had been repented of and forgiven, it was brought


forward and has led to that terrible sentence under


which he now stands before this community.
Such is the story. Snch is the criminal attitude

| save the pure and virtuous women who have been
first insuted, and then reluctantly dragged for
ward, in tears and bushes, to proclaim the truth.
Pure and honorable motives have had nothing to
do with the business from beginning to end. The
Bishop erred-his prosecutors have also erred in the
face of heaven and all men. The whole affair noto is
to be attributed to fierce and unholy struggle for
ecclesiastical power. So the only judgment which
impartiality and justice can pronounce, is that
the Bishop has sadly gone astray, in the first
instance, whilst his prosecutors have evidently
been actuated only by motives, OF which neither
earth nor heaven can approve. II was no bro

this prosecution. All parties then, stand guilty

despised, and whose holy religion they have dis

glad to hear this. All the former editions of
the book have been SO full Of egregious blundeTs
and gross libes that a new and improved edition
was indeed necessary.


Since we published the listyfrom this "book Of

communications complaining of its inaccuracies,

MARYLAND HoNEsrY-AN Oasis IN THE DESERT


It is we'll known that Maryland owes an immense
debt-nearly fifteen millions-and that for several


years past, she has paid interest on it. and what


is worse, that several counties having resisted the
payment of taxes, the State herself has been
obliged to repudlate. Maryland was once all that
was honorable and high minded, bur since she has


got go deeply into debt, and violated all her honor


able engagements, she has lost her character and
position both IN the old and the new world.
We are happy TO find, however, that there il one


green spot in that desert of dishonesty-one oasis
in that moral Zahara. We find that.the valuable


institution in Maryland called the Penitentiary,


pays its debts regularly every year, and, in addition


yields surplus oi 81 900 to the Golfers ofthe State
We would advise the Legislators-the bankers
| the panters-the merchants-and all those who


constitute the moral worth and excellence Of Mary.


land, to go to the Penitentiary, and there to learn
new code of morals and honesty. II the State OF
Maryland would only practise on the same primitive


principles of industry and economy adopted by the


burglars and thieves and pickPockets who inhabii
| their penitentiaries, she would soon get out oi
debt, and be able to hold up her head as an honest
| community.
