hree Virginia regiments would put to flight the whole of Patterson's ragged army." Subsequent events lead us to the inference that he was a far-seeing man. Old and grey-haired citizens have been openly insulted and abused, and, at night, have had their houses stoned by threatening mobs for no crime of their own, but because they had sons in the Southern army. This rabble, some of whom are organized into volunteer companies of cavalry to join the regular army, have been commissioned by Lincoln as Home Guards, and who are nothing more nor less than a gang of horse thieves and plunderers, who follow their delectable occupation without let or hindrance. They are supplied with the best of arms, and go around through the county and the bordering counties of Virginia stealing horses, sheep, &c., which contraband they deliver to the Yankee army at moderate valuation. I, as well as many others whom I could name, having been threatened with the punishment generally inflicted there o

gs of that part of the State. The Southern Rights' men did not have a candidate, as at that time it would have only aggravated farther fracases and outrages from the "Union shriekers," backed up by the Northern troops then in their midst. There are numbers of young Marylanders now in the Southern army — more, perhaps, than many are aware of; they come over quietly as fast as they can, and join the first division of the army they come to, and thus they are scattered among the ranks of Virginians, South Carolinas, or the regiments of any State which may be most convenient on their arrival. There are also thousands of other good and true men, who are willing and anxious to come on and participate in this glorious struggle for independence, but whose family ties and interests will not permit them to do so without a great sacrifice. And thus it is that thousands of loyal citizens suffer every indignity; and being bound and gagged, as it were, can only pray to a just God to hasten Hi

Alvey, a member of the Hagerstown bar, was arrested and sent down to Fort McHenry, and from thence to Fort Lafayette, all for entertaining supposed Secession sentiments, the only charge being brought against him was that he had said that "two or three Virginia regiments would put to flight the whole of Patterson's ragged army."

I, as well as many others whom I could name, having been threatened with the punishment generally inflicted there on disloyal citizens and persons entertaining supposed Secession feelings — namely, murder or imprisonment — were compelled to escape by night across the Potomac as best we could, to cast our lot with this new El Dorado. The last Congressional "election" (?) in Western Maryland, by which the hoary-headed traitor, ex-Governor Thomas, was "elected," does not by any means represent the feelings of that part of the State. The Southern Rights' men did not have a candidate, as at that time it would have only aggravated farther fracases and outrages from the "Union shriekers," backed up by the Northern troops then in their midst.

So are the liberties of the people of Maryland being crushed out steadily but surely. The insult offered by the march of the Massachusetts troops through the city of Baltimore has been followed by numerous others. The arrest and incarceration of Marshal Kane without indictment or trail, the subsequent disbanding of all the police of that city, and the substituting of their own hirelings, and the disarming of peaceable, law-abiding citizens, were only the prelude to other insults not less outrageous; nor have these outrages been confined to the city of Baltimore alone. My own native county of Washington has suffered not less severely. Although the most western county of the State but one, and contaminated as it is by the borders of Pennsylva

His parents were informed that they might have the body, provided they came and took it away in fifteen minutes, and asked no questions.

e county of Washington has suffered not less severely. Although the most western county of the State but one, and contaminated as it is by the borders of Pennsylvania as its northern boundary, the majority of the people are of warm Southern feelings, but are held in subjection by a Northern army and a low, armed rabble, who are urged to commit outrages at which their instigators hold up their hands in holy horror. Murder and rapine do their deeds unrebuked in the broad light of day. D. C. Rench, a young and promising lawyer of Baltimore, while on a visit to his parents in this, his native county, was brutally murdered — shot down and stoned to death — and his horse, on which he had rode from his father's farm to the village, was sent as a "trophy" to the army, then at Chambersburg.

Of the slave States yet attached to the despotism of the North, probably the people of Maryland are the least responsible for the degrading position she now holds as a subjugated province of the Washington Administration.
