We copy the following paragraph from
the Baltimore Republican fthe 9Th instant.
II is fair sample of the ideas entertained
by the wing party of liberty and freedom Of
opinion. They believe that the essence Of
liberty consists in forcing others TO vote for
bank men, and that opinion cannot be free
unless the dependent are punished if they
attempt to think Independently. AT least
the practice of many of that party goes to
prove that such ideas are not uncommon
among them. Mr.. Ray is not the only
wing who has discharged men from his
employ for voting contrary to his wishes.
During the panic icinter, Col. Webb, of the
N. Y. Courier and Enquirer, boosted in
his paper of having discharged some of his
journeymen for holding anti-bank opinions I;
and we could if necessary, give instan-
ces of like conduct in this city.-Louisrille
Advertiser.
"PROSCRIPTION.-Mr. Ray, brick
maker, has dismissed Jacob and VIM. Led
ley from his employ, for having voted the
Van Buren, ticket at the late election in our
city. This is sample of opposition lib
erality. And these are the men who pro-
fess to condemn prescription for opinions
sake"

Maryland.-The loss and gain in the
recent contest, is thus briefly, and no doubt
correctly summed up, by the Baltimore
Republican of Wednesday, whose general
accuracy on all subjects, and particularly
in its political statistics and speculations, is
too well established, to need endorsement
from any quarter. 1t will be seen that
the Republican bears out our previous
statements of the result, in every partic-
ular.
ain the last congress we had but three
members belonging to our party, who had
been regularly nominated. Messrs, How
ard, McKim and Thomas were men who
could be calculated on as firmly attached
to our principles and would in all cases
vote for measures in accordance with our
principles. On the other hand our oppo-
nents had four members who were warm
and decided advocates Of their views, and
always voted in opposition to the friends of
the administration, and they claimed MIR.
Turner because he had been elected by the
votes of their party in opposition to our
regularly nominated candidate and in many
instances he voted with them. Now the
case is changed. We have four firm and
decided friends of our sentiments who can
be depended upon in every emergency.
They are men who cannot be made to
finch, but will ever be found at their post,
performing their duty without fear or ia
vor. They are Messers. Worthington,
Howard, McKim and Thomas. On the
one hand our opponents have only two
whom they can claim as thorough going
men in the support of their views. They
are Messrs. Pearce and Jenifer. Mr..
Johnson is warm and active friend to the
State Reform, approved of the course OF
the Nineteen, and Mr.. Dennis is man
who is moderate in his politics, and showed
by his course in the legislature, that he
cannot be induced to 60 all lengths with
our opponents. The tables, therefore,
have been completely turned; and we stand
much better now than we did in the last
congress-"

The Advertiser is at loss to find causes
to accnunt for the large number of votes
polled in this city. We can enlighten the
wing organ little by informing it, that
about two hundred sailors, who have an
equal right to vote any where along shore,
from Chicago TO Buffalo, attended our polls
and voted the wing ticket, ON pain Of a dis
charge IF they failed 10 vote it.--Detroit
Free Press.

The difficulty which foreigners meet with
in gaining access to this country, are set
forth in striking light in the subjoined par
agraph from the N. Y. Journal Of Com
merce. 1t certainly appears rather unkind
in us, who are foreigners ourselves or the
immediate descendants Of foreigners, after
having effected settlement in country
where there are millions of acres yet un.
occupied, to turn about and fight off our
kindred who seek the same asylum. 1t
scems,as the Journal ofCommerce remarks
as if they had Gas good right to come as
VIC had or our fathers" AT all events,
we ought not to be like tho dog in the man.

"a pitifm case.-On Thursday last the
British ship Phebe was lying at anchor in
the harbor of Perth Amboy, having on board
more than one hundred and twenty passen-
gers. Seven or eight had died on the pas
sage twenty more were dangerously sick
of the ship fever consequent on foul air, bad
or scanty food, and exposure; and several
with the small pox. Yet none of these
poor creatures were permitted to land until
the cruel terms of quarantine were complied
with and the consignee had paid the capt.
tation tax demanded by our city. Thus
these emigrants, for no fault Of theirs; are
shut up in this pestilential ship to perish.
The thing is barbarous, and unworthy of
us. For ourselves, we had rather pay q
double poor tax TO the city, than to know
that innocent men, women and children,
are thus perishing at our doors. Many OF
these people are respectable and good citi-
zens. They bring money with them.
They are often deceived by the lying pla-
cards of the shippers posted on the trees
and fences, announcing that in America
there is plenty of work at three dollars per
day, and such like. These are generally
not paupers, but decent persons, with some
enterprise, who como here to better their
condition; and they haze as good a right ID
come, as we had or our fathers. But for
,nercy's sake whether they be poor or rich
let them be treated with humanity. lie,
the authorities il they will hold the ship and
consignees responsible but do dot guar
antec that these people shall not enter the
Aims House by making them all dead corp
ses.'-Utica Observer.
