LIBERTY OF THE Pass IN MARYLAND

LIBERTY OF THE Pass IN MARYLAND.
Some time ago, Mr.. Lindy, Editor Of a
weekly paper published in Baltimore, entitled
the Genius Of Emancipation, spoke IN terms ot
Just and merited Indignation, Of a noted slave
dealer named Voolfolk. who IN return for the
attack made an assault on the Editor, who IL
n member Of the Society of Friends, and beat
him in a most unmercifil manner Mr.. Lndy
appealed 10 the laws Of his country for redress
and the case was investigated before Mr.. Chief
Justice Brice, about three weeks since, when
voolfolk was fined one dollar and costs. In
passing sentence, the Judge INDUCED in the
folio wing remarks:
"He never saw a case where the provocation
for a battery was greater than the present
ifabusive language could ever be ustIfication
for a battery, this was that case-that the
trayerser was engaged in a trade sanction-
cd by the laws of Maryland, and that Lundy
had no right TO reproach him in such abusive
lanpuace, for carrying on a lawful trade-that
the trade itself was beneficial to the state, as
il removed great many rouges and vagabonds
who were a nuisance in the state-that Lundy
had re eceived no more than merIted chastise-
men. for his abuse Of the traverser, and but for
the strict letter Of the law, the Court would
no, ine Voolfolk any thing. The Court how
ever was obliged to fine him something, and
they therefore fined him one dollar and costs. y
II is thus that an independent and q philsn-
thropic Editor Is treated in Maryland, for dar-
ing 20 exercise the pre- ogatives Of the press, and
its freedom, and for holding up to the world s
abhonence and contempt, . man who has, By
his crimes, and thirst for wealth, added redoub-
led darkness to the black catalogue Of mans
infamy.--By the course taken by Mr.. Justice
Brce, il would seem that he was influenced by
disposition to protect the laws Of Maryland
first, and then the character Of Voolfolk the
infamous dealer in flesh and lblood;-t avari-
cous monster, who to fill his own Golfers would
violate all the laws Of morality, religion and
humanity, and riot amid the ruin of his species.
n il not 10 be denied that Mr.. Lundy, the edi-
tcr of the Genius Of Emancipation, did violate
the common law Of the land, by treating con-
temp,uously, and hsrshly, a man, who. though
"a sIave-deaicr, was justified IN his conduct by
the tyrannical statute Laws Of the State, but il
doe. not necessarily follow that Voolfolk
should be justified by the Judiciary, and that
Lundy should have no redress.
Mr.. Lmdy. ss an independent Editor, dared
10 condemn cruel, inpolitic and tyranical la~

LITERARY CADET.
pAovlDENcE, WEDNESDAY, APRIL ia.

TowN MrErIsos. Town Meetings viii I've
holden in he several towns Of the State, this
dig for the election of'Siate Officers. II ~ es-
. pected that the freemcn wdl be at their posts,
,iy.l,nt and active, as an effort will be made
10 support men, who are ready and anxious to
oppose the new Judiciary System, and TO re-
store the old, rotten, defective, ridiculous, stu
pd, and shameful system--a system d.sre-
injurious TO the property and happiness OF the
people.
II will be remembered, that three Of the
Senator's whose names are in the Republican
Convention Prox, the last year opposed the
passage of the New Judiciary Bill, and are
pledged TO procure its revocation at the next
session of the Legislature. The names of these
Senators, are George Field Of Cranston, Ma
than Bros sn Of Johnston, and William Whip
pc of Cumberland. They should be opposed
a. al hazards, and we trust that the voters will
erase their names from the tickets, and subsi-
tute others. that they may be taught, that an
abused and injafed people will no longer be
insulted.
There is an additional reason why they
should be opposed, and ii is, because the two
former are opposed to the Administration
Mr Field is one of the most active and eiiic-
lent men, General Jackson has in the Stafc;-
and to say this. is not to say much-and with
"a much honesty, zeal and independence as the
determined advocates of the General could
wish, boasts Of his attachment to the /" Mill
tary Cheftain" and his opposition to Mr.. Ad-
ans.-The feemen will also the propricty
Of their beng on the alert, TO secure the cleo
ton Of Messrs. Eldridge Of Eas,-Greenwich,
Whipple OF Coventry, and Wheaton of Warren,
who have been prescribed, charged with hav-
ing been friendly to the New Judiciary. This
charge is a mere sham--it is all moonshDe, a
mere pretence, 10 enable the faction to oust
those talented and well tried Senators, that
others, friendly to the Jackson interest, may
occupy their seats, and thus give the opposi-
tion party an ascendancy in oar Legislature.
Messrs. Eldridge, WLipple, and Wheaton, arc
the Jealous supporters OF the administration
they are men Of sterling integrity, and talents,
and no re ison has yet been assigned, why they
should be removed.
In making these remarks, it is Ear from ns TO
offer any dictation; We only wish to put gen
tlemen on their guard, and convince them of
the propriey fbeing vigilant and active. The
present times are worth watching; they are
exceedingly o,ninous, and should be attended

The Kcnncbcc Bridge, which was burnt on
the night of the Sd inst. was first built in 1897,
at cost of S26, 800. 1t was supported by two
arches of lS7 feet span each, and Il stone p or
in the middle, which Is still standing. In 1916
it fell down, and in 1919 it was rebuilt in a
different form, with roof 10 cover the hole,
1t a cost of + 500. It's length, including the
arches, pier and abutments, was about 500 feet.
About $4,000 more, it is stated, have been ex-
pended for repairs, and the average of div-
dends, il is said, has bccI less than three per
cent. Most of the stock of the bridge was
owned in Boston.

LUMBER. The Bangor, Maine Register Of
April IL, says" BY or shipping list it viii
be seen that upwards Of thirty sail Of vessels
have arrived here since our last, all after
goes Of Lumber-Many OF them must, of ne
ccssi;y, wait sometime for Cargoes, there be-
ing very few boards in the market; and till the
Frcshci falls, which is now so high as to occa-
sion back mater at most Of the mills, there
will be but few made. From the information we
have received, we are induced to believe there
will not be any-surplus in the supply Of boards,
this season. A great proportion oil the last
years logs have been carried oil by the fresh
CT, and scattered or lost. And the logs cut
last winter are not equal in quantity TO those of
the preceding winter The high price charged
for sumpage, and the increased distance
from which logs are procured, seem to demand
an answering increase in the price of boards,
or an Improvement in the survey-and We
would enquire Of the dealers in lumber, whcth-
or some measures might not be devised TO en-
force a more legal and equitable survey OF
boards than at present exists in Boston, and
which o,n surveyors follow. We intend to no.
tice this subject at a future time; at present
would suggest, that they demand tDo thirds
price of mcrchantablc for their refuse boards,
and for their mill refuse, one third price"

NORTH CAROLINA PoLIT1cs John n.
Bryan, Esq. candidate to represent the fourth
North Carolina District in Congress, has adj
dressed letter to his constituents in which
he avows, that he has supported the present
administration, not because he is particularly
payiial 10 those persons who compose it, but
.bcca,ise its measures have thus far been pru-
dent and core ct ;--and that he shall continue
to support, il so long as its acts are governed
by wisdom, truth and Justice.
Colonel John Long, has also addressed a
Circular to the people Of the tenth North Car
olina District, Offering HIMSELF candidate for
re ele ction to Congress-. In his letter he says,
that he has opposed some Of the measures of
the administration upon principle alone, and
not because he has entertained any personal
anipathies for the men who compose il; and
avows that he does not believe AM Of tho char
ges,of bargaining and intrigue, that have been
laid to its account, and that he believes it to
be formed by men of virtue and nAexible integ-
rity. ..
Such declarations, from such men, arc high

ever be an ornament 10 their country, and Il. is
hoped they will both be elected.
