DIsGRACEFUL PROCEEDINGS AT CAMBRIDGE.
We regret to learn that number of the party
who left this city on the 4th for Cambridge,
conducted themselves while there in manner
alike disgraceful TO themselves and the city
from which they came. We trust if they
should ever repeat the outrage, they may be
dealt with as all such outlaws deserve. The
Cambridge Democrat, in noticing their beha-
vour, says:
"They were not content with upsetting our
market carts in The street-enterng private
stables and taking out horses and carriages
plundering in the most destructive manner our
gardens-hghting and abusing our citizens,
but they were SO to1c, so base, SO mean, and so
co,oaraty as to insult female uirtue
Wepty the decent portion of the society of
Baltimore, and in all oarnestness we would adj
wise them TO 90 TO WORK. indeed it is labor
which will not go unrewarded, and civillze
that part OF her population now much below
the Indian savage. Hereafter we hope to be
prepared to give them, when they visit US,
feeling reception. We have the means and
we certainly shall protect ourselves. Some of
them, on this occasion, left here carrying with
them the Evidences Of an intcrUieW.
We are always proud to receive and glad to
welcome respectable company. The hospitality
OF Cambridge is not unknown to some of the
good people of Baltimore, and needs not to be
endorsed by ourselves We desire no commu-
MON however with the mob, and we will have
none,
Since the above was in type, we have receiv-
ed the following resolutions, adopted at meet
ing of the citizens of Cambridge, held at the
Court House, OF the 9Th inst.
RESOLVED, That as citizens of Cambridge we
are happy at all times to see vislers to our viii
lage, and with great pleasure will extend to
them suitable cvilities and hospitalities-but
at the same time we hope and expect to receive
at their hands such respect as we may proper
ly claim.
RESOLVED, That the conduct of the larger por-
ton of those who visited eur village on the
4th of July inst, in the steamboat Jefferson on
a pleasure excursion as also of those who have
visited us on former occasion, has met with
our entire appreciation, but at the same tme
that of another and, we are glad to say, of
smaller portion of those who visited us on the
last named day, was such as to merit the indig-
nation OF our entire population, and as citizens
we hereby protest against any repetition ofsuch
conduct-by which the peace of our citizens is
disturbed, their rights invaded, and their per-
sons abused.
ResoLped, That our fellow citizens of the city
Of Baltimore be earnestly requested TO use their
exertions TO incline those who may embark up
on such excursions, to so conduct themselves
as not to make it necessary for us to adopt any
other than this, the mldest proceedings we can
devise.
RESOLVED, That whenever such excursions
may be again contemplated, the captains OF
steamboats,, be also earnestly requested to con-
tribute by their influence to the same end, by
such precautionary measures, as they may be
able to adopt.
ResOlUsd, That we are extremely reluctant
to use harsh language, and mere SO to adopt a
harsh policy-that to commend the conduct of
the we'll behaved is much more agreeable than
to condemn the opposite course, and we most
anxlousy hope that no future conduct of such
as visit us on like occasions, may call for any
other expression by our citizens.
