Baltimore's Relations— Past and Present— to the South. From the earliest days of the republic, Maryland and her chief City have been dosely identi- fipH with he Southern States The first mail route into the South was devised and established by Wm?o?dard the founder of the Maryland Journal and Baltimore Advertiser, 'm 774. which r^nasirL Georgia The intercourse thereby established between Maryland and the Sou^h united them in bonis of sympathy, which, in ^he ensuing Revolution, was ratified by the unselfish and natriotic services of Maryland troops upon the Southern battle-fields. _ hi he struSe for independence no State bore a more honorable and conspicuous part than Maryland Bufespecially in the South, her sons fought with signal results Under Smallwood ris^Howard and W Ihams, at Eutaw, Cowpens, Camden, Guilford, Yorktown, they were the mosiorc^iTnent on t^ field, in some in tances, turning defeat into victory, doing more than any Xr branch of the army o deliver the Southern States from the heel of the despot and the rav- aS ofTarleton Geneml Greene, thus wrote, after the battle of Cowpens: 'Nothing could ex- ceed ?he gallantry of the Maryland line Cols.

BALTIMORE. The One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Founding of Baltimore. (Pages 866—875, Monumental City, &c.l Celebrated October nth to i6th, 1880, revealed to the surprise of its citizens as well as strangers, the magnificient growth and greatness of Baltimore. The industrial procession of the first day showed that it was not behind the other great metropolitan cities of the United States. That furnished a fruitful text from which we might write voluminous articles. It was particularly illustrative of the great advance Baltimore has made in manufactures ; and this leads us to say that as a Manufacturing Centre Baltimore is not excelled. It abounds in all resources for manufacture. Its proximity to the bituminous coal fields, its unsurpassed water power, its cheap labor, its shipping and transfer facili- ties, enables it to successfully rival eastern factory cities. For instance, the manufacture of cotton duck has been almost exclusively transferred to Baltimore, two-thirds of that used in the world, being now made here. The manufacture of boots and shoes has quadrupled since the war ; likewise book and news-print papers, sash and doors, clothing, silver-plate ware, queensware, and many other articles more than trippled. The character of Baldmore manufacturers is a great point in its favor. They are unexcep- tionably honest, and produce the best workmanship and purest articles. They do not practice the clever tricks so common, do not adulterate their goods, or use cheap material. Their brands or trade marks do not deceive. Their honesty and the merit of their goods are appreciated in the eastern markets, and Boston, New York, and other cities have standing orders for goods at Balti- more factories, and they sell them to their best trade. "^ The Jobbing Trade of Baltimore May be considered the most distinctive feature of its commercial character, and is certainly one of its most interesting. It comprehends nearly all those departments which supply the com- mercial, industrial and domestic needs of the country, such as dry goods, groceries, hardware, notions, boots and shoes, hats and caps, clothing, drugs, queensware, books and stationery, milli- nery and straw goods, confectionery, green and Mediterranean fruits, oysters and American fruits, paper hangings, watches and jewelry, etc., etc. Baltimore merchants instituted this trade in the early days of the republic; in the days of the pack-horse and Conestoga wagon, and were the first to open to the South and West channels of communication and provide means of transportation for her products. The advantages which Baltimore possessed over New York, being 200 miles nearer the South and West, and on the line ot the old national road, made her their best trading point and port of entry. The enterprise of these early merchants was displayed in their building a fine turnpike to Cumberland, which was extended by the Government to Wheeling. Stage and Wagon routes were established through Virgmia to the South, large!}- by the means of our merchants, so that primarily the development of the Southern trade is due to the jobbing merchants of Baltimore. This wagon trade was ^•ery interesting and is one of the relics of the past which should not be lost. On Howard street from Franklin to Baltimore, they stood with their mamoth teams ; when loaded with groceries, hardware dry goods, shoes, hats, bonnets, yankee clocks, et cetera, they were started off for a month's journey or more, and returned with tobacco, ginseng, beeswax, snake-root, butter, beans, feathers, cotton, hemp, linen, wool, etc., a conglomerate cargo, which in the aggregate, placed a great deal of money in circulation in the South and West, and was the seed-corn to their subsequent harvests. P ormerly the jobbing trade was not classified as now. With the vast changes produced by railroads, telegraphs and other facilities, business of all kinds became classified and special. 'I he firms in the various departments of the jobbing trade of Baltimore, are composed of parties of highest character ; many of them are among the most responsible citizens of long busi- ness experience The stock carried by them consist of full supplies from the best factories in the United States, and importations from foreign countries, many of the houses having resident buyers abroad. The expenses of running steamers and port duties are less at Baltimore than at any other city on the coast. It has become mainly independent of the eastern cities in her wholesale jobbing trade, and is a formidable rival of New York as a distributing market, and its proximity to the South and West, makes it more convenient and sympathetic.

The Educational Advantages of Baltimore ARE very complete. The Pub- lic Schools are equal to those of any other city. Private schools of a high grade, are more num- erous.

Mr. Hopkins was identified with that Ro.\D during his com- mercial life, as its largest indi- V i d u a 1 stock- holder, and most influential Director. He appreciated its importance to the City and lege of Dental Surgery, which ranks every other in the world. There are three Medical Colleges, — one has been recently organized. The oldest is the University of Maryland, associated with the name of Prof. N. R. Smith, (page 40;) the other is the College of Physicians and Surgeons, which has also attained a distinguished reputation, (page 43.) All these Institutions offer advantages unsurpassed in any other city. In this connection we refer specially to the second page of our cover. The Bryant, Stratton & Sadler Business College.

"Sir!" said our learned friend Professor Knowall, "We are indebted to China for the four principal blessings we enjoy. The compass came from China ; printing came from China ; gunpowder came from China, and Tea came from China, — thank God. "Then, sir," we get our umbrella from China. The first man that carried an umbrella in Lon- don, in Queen Anne's reign, was followed by a mob, — and that was only i6o years ago." "Our ladies, too, must thank the Celestials for their tea pots. Think of it, sir, Queen Elizabeth never saw a tea pot in her lite." 'Tn 1664, the Great East India Company brought two pounds two ounces of Tea as a present for His Majesty, King Charles II " "Then, sir, rose the age of scandal The curi- osity of Eve was bad enough ; but when Eve's curiosity became sharpened by tea, the culmi- nating point was reached." Here the Professor grew purple with elo- quence and indignation. We ventured to remark that he had spoken of tea as a blessing at first. "Yes, sir," responded the Professor, shaking his bushy head, "It is a blessing; but, like al| other blessings, it must be used properly. China, sir, knows nothing of perspective, but she is great in pigments and Prussian blue '' "But, Professor, you promised to write an advertisement for He-No Tea. What about it ? A little information, if you please." "Tea, my young friends, is a plant that grows in China, Japan, and other parts of the world. The same plant produces all kinds. Green tea is made by one manipulation — black, by another, — that is all, sir. The shrub is raised from seeds like hazel nuts, lives 15 to 20 years, grows sometimes as talt as the Chinese Giant, and sometimes as small as Tom Thumb. One Chinaman can pick about 13 pounds of leaves a day, for which he is paid si.\ cents" "The green leaves are spread on bamboo frames to wilt and dry ; then they take a handful of leaves cast them into a heated pan, and squeeze out the juice. This juice contains an acrid oil, — so acrid as to irritate the hands of the workmen. Good gracious, think of that, sir! What stuff for the stomach !" "But, Professor, why tell the people all this ? What are we to say, to make them drink He-No tea?" "The truth, sir, the naked truth, sir ; — don't think you can deceive the public, sir. The late Bishop Marvin, God bless him, told me he had seen with his own eyes in Shanghte, the Chinamen preparing tea for the foreign market ; that is ruining it, sir. They rolled and polished every litde ball; and then they threw in the pans a handful of coloring matter,— consisting of what? Why, sir, a mi.xture of Prussian blue and gypsum. No wonder John Chinaman calls us outsids barbarians, when he knows we drink half a pound of Prussian blue and gypsum with every 100 pounds of green tea. And this tea is made to order, sir. Does honest John drink such tea ? No, sir, he knows better, if he does wear a tail." Here the Professor's interlocutor rose and protested that his cause was being ruined, and a peremptory demand was made on the Professor for the advertisement that would induce people to drink He-No tea. "Well, sir," resumed the Professor, "If you take a pinch of green tea and chew it, sir, you can sit and listen to Dr. 's sermon and keep wide awake, sir. But He-No tea, being made of very young leaves, has litde or none of this acrid oil ; and, therefore, is less injurious than the others, — less injurious, I say, " "Stop, stop, dear Professor, you mean well, no doubt, but this will never do for an adver- tisement for He-No tea " "Well, sir, you need not interrupt me. I was about to explain why I drank He-No tea. And as for your advertisement, let the people, sir, find out for themselves what the tea really is. Good morning, sir. ADVERTISEMENT. Martin Gillet & Co., a house established at Baltimore, in 1811, import and sell to dealers al! kinds and grades of teas. They recommend He-No tea as the purest and best tea to be had. It is sold only in the original i-pound, ^-pound and ^4; -pound packages. Sample on application. 24 Baltimore. GRANVILLE O.

The superior character of their Goods attracted attention and drew largely the trade from eastern cities. Our own dealers began and continue, to handle them.

This enterprise has been and is of great importance to Baltimore, not only in giving employ- ment to capital and labor in its own department, but it has stimulated other branches, and influenced valuable customers to other departments of commercial and mechanical industry.

The ground was principally donated by |ohn Eager Howard. Baltimore became and is the Arch-Diocese of the R. C. Church in the United States.

Prominent attention is attracted to the third page of our rover, containing an iikistration of a chime of these celebrated Bells. jMr. McShane, by his individual enterprise and untiring industry, from small beginnings has built up one of the largest and most important manufactories in Baltimore. The business of his Brass Foundry, manufacturing all kinds of Brass Pumps and Castings, Water Guages, Steam and Water Cocks and Globe Valves, for Steam Engine, Railroads and Household purposes, e.Ktends to all parts of the country. He employs five hundred skilled mechanics and laborers, supporting a large working community Mr. McShane, with enlarged views of public enterprise, has conspired with others in promoting the general industries of Baltimore. His influence was so well appreciated, that he was appointed by Mayor Latrobe on the "ConuTiission on the Establishment of Manufacturers," (Monumental City, pages 492-93, 494,) in connection with George S. Brown, (page 35,) Joseph H. Rieman, David L. Barriett, (page 17,) Henry C. Smith, (page 36.) Mayor Latrobe, Chairman. Mr. McShane is also a Director of the Franklin Bank, of Baltimore, and Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, on the part of Baltimore City. He has branch establishments in New \'ork, Brooklyn, St. Louis and Chicago. He has recently received an order from St ALiry's R. C. Church, Brooklyn, for a chime of thirteen bells, a duplicate of the Centennial Chimes. K. G. MATTHKWS. .1. k. MKSSEKSMITH. E. G. MATTHEWS & CO. •T^a^M 'SEJSx H:::aa. '<3isS.->- ■icSi^j ■^EfissS.'

The complete arrange- ments, for roasting, handling and packing, have superseded the old methods at home, and pre- ser\e all the substance and aroma of the grain, so large a proportion of which was formerly lost. All that the consumer now needs is confidence in the Firm that roasts his Coffee. We are abun- dently able to guarantee confidence in our Baltimore Houses, two of which are included in this pamphlet; E. Levering & Co , on page 27 ; J. B. L.\zear & Co. on the opposite page. Mr. Lazear was among the first to begin this enterprise in Baltimore. He is the son of the late Hon. Jesse Lazear, who was President of the Farmers and Drovers Bank, Waynesburg, Greene Co., Pa., from 1837 to 1877, and representative of Greene, Washington, Fayette and Lawrence counties, Penna., in the U. S. House of Representatives for two terms ; and also an honored Ruling Elder of the Presbyterian Church. Thus Mr. Lazear has enjoyed the advantages of the best financial and moral training, and occupies the high position in Baltimore to which these entitle him. In his present business he associated Edward S. Ely, son of Zebulon S. Ely, a success- ful and eminent capitalist of New York City. With ample capital and large business e.xperience, they are thoroughly equipped for the enterprise in which they are engaged I@"The three advantages which they desire mentioned, are the Ai/ -tight Cylinders ; a harm- less Chemical Preparation which closes the pores of the grain, preventing the escape of its aroma, and their Tin-Joil Wrapper, that keeps the virtue of the Coffee until used, for which they exclusively have the Patent Right for the United States. They have a large New Roasting Warehouse in the rear of their Commercial House on Exchange Place, having a capacity for 25000 pounds per day. id BALTIAIORE. GEORGE PEABODY.

They supply nearly all the leading mills of Maryland ; among which are Wm. E. Hooper & Sons, Woodberry ; Clipper, Mt. Washington, Meadow, and others ; Mt. Vernon Co., Union Manufacturing Co., Thisde Manufacturing Co., &c., &c. In several large mills Belts, of J. H. Haskell & Co have been in constant use for 20 and 30 years, which are the same as those now made by this Company, The Company were among the first to encourage the Atlanta International Cotton Expo- sition enterprise,and to engage space for exhibit- ing their goods. 'I'o give a practical proof of their Belting, they donated to tlie purposes of the E.xposition more Belting than any other estab- lish'.iient. The main driving Belts, in the south wing of the Main Building, put in by this Company, have been in constant use, -u'iflwut being touched, giv- ing entire satisfaction, and pronounced to be the best in the Exposition. Arrangements are now being made for unlimited manufacture of these Belts, so that the Company can supply without delay any demand.

MORRIS, President of Board of Commissioners of Public Schools, Baltimore. "That a publication like yours cannot fail to be advantageous is evident from the information it gives to the public. The advantages belonging lo our city are strikingly illustrated and must attract the attention of the people of other States and of Foreigne's, The scope of this attraction will be increased in proportion as the Work is distributed." The late REVERJJY JOHNSON.

The Bells aggregated in weight 2iocx3 lbs., the •smallest weighing 300 and the largest 4000 lbs.; they represented the 13 original States. They rang in the Opening Day, May loth, at sunrise, and at 9 o'clock, when the Iiiftyguration Exercises began, announced to the world the sign"ificant fact, and welcomed the nations to our Century's Fair.

The Mc- Sh.\ne Bells excell in volume, purity of tone, and su- periority of workmansnip. They are all composed of pure Bell Met.\l, and modelled as to secure the de- sired acoustic effect to the fullest degree. This Foundry casts more Bells than any other in the United States. The McShane Bells are heard all over the world, in civilized and heathen countries, Church Bells, Fire Bells, Engine Bells ; Bells of all sizes and for all ])urposes — municipal, commercial, industrial, ecclesiastical, educa- tional.
