More Treachery in Baltimore.

--On the evening of the 20th instant, the Federal troops went to the Cemetery, in Baltimore, and ‘"excavated"’about 4,000 muskets and 3,000 pikes that had been buried there by the citizens, to keep them from being used for their subjugation by the tools of the Black Republican despot. The muskets and pikes were taken in 40 wagons to Fort McHenry.

The day of retribution, it is to be hoped, is not far off, when the brave and true of Maryland will redeem their State from the vandals who now control it without a murmur of disapprobation from the traitor Hicks.
