men Of Maryland, have at length determined to
strike ther colors Orders have been given to
the printer Of their organ, the "Baeeq VISTA,
to take ont the name Of Gen. Taylor the notices,
Electoral Ticket &c and also the rigaage in the title

with the motto Central Taylor neo0 Suveaaers ."

They viii feel that they have been decidedly hum
bugged and be little disposed to iraternze with their

You can readily see that, in the above view Of
matters in this State the way is fast opening for
that uprising OF the People" for which YOU tell
us you have been longing NE prospect Of Free Sod
Ticket in Maryland was by no means dim before. At
every turn voters could be met, who were not only
willing but anxious to support such ticket. The
words of Van Buren, " and " Free S0ll" were upon
hundreds OF lips Nor was the disatecton confined 10
any one class OF men. Original Democrats and Wings
men who have failed 10 vote for their parties
respectivey-alke joined in the wish for such ticket

to imagine Themselves very courageous For although
Mr. Van Buren, has certainly never done anything o.
doserrc the imputaton Of AboOnism Of course that
cry will be raised for effect But nevertheless think
the friends Of Mr. Van Buren, will have one insurmOun

ticket If they set about it promptly and Alright
Considerable discussion is going on, you perceive
between the friends of the Liberty candidate, John T.
Hale, to the expediency OF propriey OF union OF
the Van Buren, and Hale forces. Now, shall not pre-
to advise in this matter although feeling lively
interest in it but let say that the more determined
opponents of Slavery in this state, would prefer Nj
Hale 10 Mr.. Van buren,. should Hale ticket be formed
here As this is not likely to take place they would
probably generally advise in favor Of Mr. Van BgreH
being selected by the Buffalo Convention Unqueston
ably IN the absence of an out andout anti >tatey ticket
they could mostly be depended when the struggle
came and with their aid, which of course would moi
be desped by the friends of Mr.. Van Buren,, his vote
conld not fail 10 be highly respectable one, and such

would readily unite 10 swell the support Of the Ere

these crcums stances since Mr. Hale has given in his pub
lie adherence to the National Reform measures, the Ma
tOnal RofOrmers here would probably vote tor him,
in the field, the Free Soil nominee and an Electora
ticket could be formed. As II is not likely that such
ticket could be got up here a. have already said,
think the most Of this class also might be relied on Z

their power, and resolve to use it Alright
These are stirring times, truly There is a wide
