They will, hand in hand and heart to heart with Virginia, stand as a dreaded sentinel on the northernmost rampart of the young republic.

Without the Eastern Shore of Maryland, how would you hold the Eastern Shore of Virginia? Without Baltimore city and its great railroad, how can you make it the interest of Western Virginia to shake off the foul embrace of the invader? That public work is essential to t

finitely presented. At this moment with outstretched arms, they stand upon their desecrated hearthstones, crying out to their Southern brethren to give them an opportunity to pronounce this decision on the field of battle. They do not ask for men to fight the battle of freedom on their own soil. They ask only for arms and ammunition, and that the tyrant's hand may be taken from their throat until they can rally their people from mountain and valley. Then, with the courage of the old "Maryland line," and the benediction of a just God, they will be able to carve out and defend their liberties with their own swords. They are willing to accept annihilation as the penalty of failure. God knows they love the sunny South as dearly as any son of the Palmetto State. They idolize the chivalric honor, the stern and refined idea of free government, the social dignity and conservatism which characterize the Southern mind and heart, as enthusiastically as those of their Southern brethren

and the indications are that the present "electrical" burst is only the first flash of a thunderstorm, which will rock to its foundations the towering despotism of the North. We, too, have been electrified by the announcement that the North is eager for war with Great Britain. Was ever such madness as the Lincoln Government has displayed since the days when Pharaoh's heart was hardened by his own cruel passions?--Was ever a more evident interposition of Providence in behalf of any people, than that which has been manifested from the beginning of this contest to the present moment, since the day when God led the children of Israel from the dominion of a tyrant, to the Canaan of repose and independence? The Northern Government, as Mr. Faulkner justly said in his speech last night, is between two fires. If it releases the Confederate Commissioners it rouses to revolt the fanatical element in its own bosom. If it refuses the English demand, war with Great Britain is inevitable.
