Baltimore and the North.

--The Baltimore Sun, in an article upon the present attitude of that city towards the Northern States, says:

‘ But while "threatening and slaughter" are breathed against our city, the fact is carefully ignored that the wounded of the volunteers were rescued from the populace as soon as possible, and tenderly cared for, and the dead decently laid away in the mausoleum at Greenmount. The fact is carefully ignored that one of our most worthy citizens, who had immediately before his death resisted a demonstration against them, was wantonly murdered in our streets by these volunteers. And it seems hardly worthy of remark that while our people, of every class, age and degree, were arming to resist the Pennsylvania troops advancing upon the city on Sunday last, the latter were no sooner remanded by orders from Washington, and it was ascertained they were suffering for want of food, than it was supplied abundantly by our citizens and sent out to them by the Board of Police.
