Serenade to Senator Wigfall.
-- Senator Wigfall, of Texas, was serenaded, in Baltimore, Friday night. He made a speech in reply, of which the following is an extract:
The people of the South had seceded, and he hoped those who listened to his remarks would never make a retrograde movement.
They had been greatly slandered, and it had been charged upon them that they had a design of seizing upon the Capitol, at Washington; but for what purpose, when they had a Capitol of their own at Montgomery?
The Congress of the Border States would not meet in Washington, no matter what might be the character of affairs and the condition of the country.
He regarded the people of Maryland and Virginia as acting in the dark, and unmindful of their best interests, and he at least expected better things of the sons of the Old Maryland Line.
[Cheers.]
