dent was loudly and repeatedly applauded. On
its conclusion he retired from the balcony, when
reiterated calls for "DAvIs arose from the throng
of citizens. At ~ fttt4ffGHt
The Hon. JEFFERSON DAVIS, Secretary of War,
came forward, and briefly addressed the people to
the following purport:
He appeared in response TO their call, although
not strictly entitled to address them the pre-
sent occasion. There something in the sea Of
upturned faces before him, all glowing with en-
thusiasm and patriotic ardor, which f6rciblv re-
called to his recollection the men who fought IN
Mexico. Many ties attached him to MARYLAND.
but none more powerfully than the consciousness
OF common love for their common country The
sons of this State were found peopng every por-
ton OF this vast country and were diflsed over the
whole world; and on the other hand she extended
a generous welcome to the natives Of all other
countries, who were here taught to assimlate them
selves to our free and glorious institutions Mr.
Davis continued for some minutes in strain
highly complimentary to the this city, and closed
by expressing his hearty aspirations for her well
fare, and his thanks for the reception the citizens
had bestowed.
The Hon. JAMES GUTHRIE, Secretary of tho
Treasury, being called for, spoke in substance as
follows
He had right to address the audience Of fell
low-citizens before him, although resident of
kentucky, by the distant waters Of tho Ohio, for
he was also citizen of the United States of that
Union banded together by the bonds of liberty and
freedom in trade. Her institutions, thus founded,
had been productive of unparalleled prosperity
She had thus prospered under the auspices Of De-
mocracy.
After a few remarks Of similar tendency, Mr.
Guthrie proceeded to remark, he had no name
ON this side the mountains, though for thirty
years engaged in the support of his principles in
his own State. He had been called BY the Presi-
dent to preside over the Treasury, and hoped to
conduct his Department to the benefit Of the ma
ton. | Efffi r
The honorable speaker then made some hand
some illusions to the public works of this State,
particularly the Ohio railroad, and eulogised the
heroic conduct Of Maryanders in the field Of con-
fict; and concluded by an expression of thanks
and good wishes. . -
The Hon. CALEB CUSHING, Attorney General,
being called for and introduced, spoke at some
length. We condense his remarks:
| The citizens of Baltimore, by the reception
| given to the Chief Magistrate Of the Union,
manifested respect, not only for the President but
for the Constitution, for the Government, for the
country. Not to have done so would have been
liz
public officers who now accompanied the Presi-
dent did SO as duty, and not in order to discuss
political questions to make any allusion to par
ties or to men as partsans. Therefore, as he was
not at liberty to talk about internal politics, he
would confne himself to congratulating his audi
ence on the present happy occasion. They, as
individuals of the people, met here with the people,
that people by whose spirit the country and her
institutions We're sustained. The people here were
sovereign, the Government their agent and repre-
sentative
After several remarks elucidative of the genius
Of our institutions he proceeded to remark that old
financial petty controversies had passed away, and
the country had now reached position that ele-
waited her far above liability to their renewal.
The honorable speaker in strain of great elo-
quence descanted on the territorial progress of
the country since her birth. At that period the
Mississippi valley was an unknown region, now
the glorious and unparalleled centre Of the United
States. The power which Struggled into infancy
with difficulty and danger now proudly stood, ex-
banded like her own symbolic eagle, with one
foot planted on the Alleghanies, the other on the
Rocky Mountains-one hand stretched over the
Atlantic in defiance to her every foe, the other
opened on the Pacific to gather the golden har-
vest, to welcome new and teeming commerce.
We are strong, and our necessity is activity; we
are strong in territory, in resources, in brave
men, and fair women; but, strongest of all, in
the patriotism which burns like vestal flame on
the altar of every American heart
In conclusion, he expressed his appreciation of
the Presidents motives and Judgment. Unless
Providence Withdrew its blessing, the course of
President Pierce would rebound to the honor and
interest of the whole country. With thanks for
the feelings with which the citizens had receiv-
cd himself and friends, the honorable gentleman
concluded highly interesting and impressive ad
dress. s.6-p
The President proceeded to receive number
of citizens who were presented to him, but soon
retired to his private apartments.
From The Baltimore Patriot Of yesterday afternoon
The News from Europe.
The accounts from Europe by the Atlantic
leave it doubtful us ever what is to be the re-
suit of the dispute between Russia and Turkey
They seem to be '1as they were, - but the feeling
in England and France is not SO quiet. In these
two countries, it would appear, from what the
papers report, there is good deal of indignation
|felt--certainly expressed-at what Russia has
done or threatens to do; and the conclusion which
the mind of the reader would draw from these re-
ports is, that if Russia persists in her present OBJ
iect-for here, too, tits doubtful what Russia ex-
actly does intend-thcn there will be q war, and
England and France will take sides with Turkey
The stock and money market is a barometer
which tells what the public mind thinks of the
matter and the reports show that it is disturbed,
not because it knows any thing, but because it
knows nothing. So the latest English paper
celved says: 4ths'
"We hear very little of the Turkish affair this
week. Public feeling is much guieter ON the sub
lect, but anxiety still exists among merchants
The monthly steamer for Constantinople took out
less than half an average cargo, and rates of in
surance on vessels bound to the Danube or other
places likely to be hazardous in theievent Of war
have advanced, and the tendency is still up
wards" Tas
And the circular Of James McHenry, dated at
Liverpool, June %, says:
"Nothing definite is yet known as to the position
Of affairs between Russia and Turkey. The pre-
vailing belief, in the absence of positive intclli-
gence, is, that Russia will not proceed to cxtremi
