the General -Assembly of Maryland for the Session of 1876,
into consideration, and have had presented to them, but one

Baltimore City, who offers to do all the printing, that may
be required by the Senate and the House of Delegates of the
General Assembly for the Session of 1876, including all testi-
mony in contested elections; Senate and House of Delegates
Journals; reports and documents of both Houses; and 1,500
copies of the Acts, passed by the General Assembly of Mary-

of his ability to perform the work satisfactorily, and they
