exceedingly vicious class of men, whose corruption would have secretly festered in the body politic, and ultimately, perhaps, have caused its decay. On the 19th of last April, many of these men were ready to hail the Southern banner, if convinced of its power. The events of the past six months have unmasked those servile camp fol until he was surrounded by Northern bayonets. Cowering under the storm of popular indignation, he went into Monument square on the afternoon of the memorable 19th of April last, whilst the blood of the heroic youths of Baltimore, who had scornfully driven out of their city twelve hundred armed abolitionists from Massachusetts, waeces, and not one cannon to defend the approaches to the city. She was surrounded by the flower of the hostile army, and cut off from all support. After the 19th of April, Philadelphia and New York clamored for her destruction, under the mask of patriotism, though in reality instigated altogether by the intense hatred engendered

cation, imprisonment, the continued pressure of arrogant military rule, petty official persecution, the temptations of patronage, and all other base means so familiar to tyrants, have been used with a zeal worthy of a less infamous cause, to extort from the people of Maryland an expression of "loyalty to the Union," as they still persist in characterizing the decayed remains of the old Government; and yet, their bastiles are filled to repletion with Maryland martyrs; and they dare not for one instant withdraw from her soil the armed mercenaries, who, in their imbecile terror, stand guard at the doors of rebel women and arrest rebel boys for wearing the obnoxious colors of the Southern flag, more terrible to the tyrant's minions than anything on earth except the Southern steel which glittered around that flag on an hundred fields of victory.--No! They well understand that Maryland is at heart a "rebel," as she was in 76; and they remember the history of her deeds and the fate of her t

he genial domestic virtues of their renowned ancestry. The taint of Northern pelf and the ulcers of Northern Red Republican demagogues will rapidly vanish as the old State passes through the furnace of affliction into which she has been cast by Lincoln, with a fiercer rage than that of the idolatrous Nebuchadnezzar. Hence it is, sir, that, drawing much consolation from this faith, we strive to mitigate the rigor of our exile, and to stifle the sorrow which rises in our hearts as we listenMaryland to join the cotton States whilst other great States, lying between her and the new Confederacy, remained even nominally in union with the North. The delay from December to April was fatal to her; and that delay was beyond her control. Lincoln then came into power, with his navy threatening the bay and rivers which penetrate the State at every vital point, and with his army gathering its mighty columns from the North, professedly for the protection of the Federal Capital, but in reali

a rich dowry! Her vast mineral stores, her fertile lands, salubrious climate, noble waters, and stupendous public works are so many golden streams of wealth converging to the greatest of all the Southern cities. She will add nearly a million to the population of the Southern Republic --a million of brave men and fair women! Here again I cast aside every appeal to interest, and will rely altogether upon the high-hearted instincts of honor and manhood which distinguish the Southern nation. No State of the South can steel its soul against the land of Calvert and Carroll. Marylanders believe that such are the sentiments of the people of the South, and that they will inspire and direct the policy of the trusted leaders of this second war of independence. With this strong faith in our hearts, we will patiently abide the decrees of Providence. I have the honor to be your obedient servant and friend, E. Louis Lowe. Hon. James L. Kemper, Speaker House of Delegates of Virginia.

Although the resolution conveys a high compliment personal to my self (for which I am the more grateful in as much as I feel that it exceeds my actual merits,) I am, nevertheless, perfectly sensible that the great purpose of the representat

Her Executive had not the manhood to oppose a revolution which he feared and hated, until he was surrounded by Northern bayonets. Cowering under the storm of popular indignation, he went into Monument square on the afternoon of the memorable 19th of April last, whilst the blood of the heroic youths of Baltimore, who had scornfully driven out of their city twelve hundred armed abolitionists from Massachusetts, was still fresh upon the pavements, and there called God to witness his loyalty to the South, and prayed that his arm might rot from the socket if he ever raised it against his Southern brethren. Such a man, as we well knew, would not have dared to lift his finger against secession in the month of February last.
