We are sorry TO learn, that the ut
most alarm prevails among the people
Of Charles and ST. Mary's counties an
the State of Maryland, from the appre-
hension Of an insurrection among the
Negroes, who are said to meet in con-
siderable numbers inthe night--to ma
,ure the plans and prepare the means
of resisting their masters Let US hope
that the accounts are exaggerated.

newspapers, are FAR from allaying the
inhamed passions -four citizens but
even in this hour of dangcr~1d dis
tress, party zeal seems to have over
come those generous and patriotic feel
ings which ought ever 10 characterize
free, Independent Americans and
those columns which were intended rs
the channels of correct information, are
often filled with matter tending to in
flame the feelings OF party, and TO in
fuse spirit of discord into the minds
Of our most peaccable cilizens. Among
the most Insignificant writer's of this
kind, would notice one in the Argus,
with the signature of" Marcus" The
pen Of this young man has been WELD
| ed with all the strength and dexterity
Of which he is possessed, to lash he's
brother democrats to their posts on the
days of election, and to a general sense
of their duty. In the space Of two
thirds of column, in the Argus of
June I'd, amidst all his scoldins * fret
ting at the i'll success Of his party, he
has made but two positive points
First, that the Federslists have obtain
ed 4 majority in both Houses OF the
Legislature. This, every schoolboy
knew before. Second, that the En-
barge n'ust, be good measure and
the reason he gives for it, is, 6eC use
other folks say 80 ~! After another
lash at the denocrats in this county
particularly, Marcus seems to hope
that the victory is but temporary. 70
crown the whole, after quotation from
Scripture, he tells the people Chat is,
all who read the Argus) what they
probably knew before, viz. that next
November, they must choose Repre-
sentative 10 Congress, and intimates
that then would be an opportunity 10
Try their strength. Such is the outline
OF inarcuS's first essay. In his second
communication, in the Argus Of July
9th, be has ruh through the common
slang respecting the change in our
State Government, Wheaton's Resolu,
tons, the acquisition Of 10 Adams,
and the mode of choosing the Electors
Of President ard Vice President. In
Ills piece, Of" "a column and half, he
has established no point he has not
addressed'the reason Of his readers, but
their passions. He has brought no ar
gumeut; but his whole writing seems
more like the incoherent rant of dis
tempered brain, than the productisn Of
man pretending to be politician.
Let me ask, are such writer's as Mar
,n8, to dictate the line Of our political
conduct! Ipresume the real patriot,
let him be called by whatever name,
viii Join me in saying, that at this day
OF public calamity, the frothy essays of
Marcus should be considered as com.
mon nuisances, and all violent declsim-
ers and Office seekers be treated as dis
turbers ofthe peace.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
F7zday, Fcb. 5.


A debate OF considerable length occurred
tonight, on the late orders in Council, res
pecting the commerce of Neutrals. The
Chancellor of the eXchequer moved the house
TO resolve into committee OF ways and
means, for the purpose of submitting some f.
nancial propositions founded on these orders:
Lord Henry Petty opposed the motion; he
commended that the orders in council violated
the law OF nations and the municipal law of
this country and farther objected, that to en-
force them, was adopting a system of great
iimpollcy The chancellor of the Exchequer,
IN a very mastery speech, replied to the ar
guments of the Noble Lord.-He remarked
that the late orders in council were founded
on the same principle as the order of the It h
OF Jan. 1907, and therefore, that Il i'll beca me
ministers, who issued that order, to contend
that those which differed from it, only bv;be
Ing more sufficient, were violations of the law
OF nations, and the municipal law of the
land Their policy, he observed, consisted
IN the protection they afforded to our COM
merce, and in the inconvenience and distress
the enemy i;iust experience from their ope-
ration
