MARYLAND.
FROM THE BALTIMORE CLIPPER.

On next Monday the Legislature Of MARY
LAND oW assemble; and we hope that the attention
of members will be at directed to revsal of
the criminal laws of the State, they stand greatly
in need Of amendment. They should be 50 changed
to make punishment for offences and more
certain The five dollars and costs system should be
abandoned and the power Of judges to mitigate punish
ment be restricted As justice is administered, the
criminal law is but solemn mockery. The Legislature
should that this be not continued Among other
rectiyes of existing evils in this city, hope that
Mayors Court will be established be in session daily
1t would greatly facilitate the punishment Of cuprits and
the restoration Of public order II members should de-
sire to have evidence Of the necessity of rigid
Jaws, and Of tribunal to take cognzance Of crimes,
let them visit city and walk abroad at night We
think il probable that one night would afford them ample
satisfaction.
We hrmy believe that the provision Of new Consti
tuition which requires the election of judicial ocers by
the popular would be condemned public sersi-
ment could be expressed upon and itmay yet become
necessary 10 call Conventions consider the subject
If it be objected that the Constitution prohibits any
alteration in less than years We repi hat the same
power which put this Constitution in operation, corr-v
to the provisions of the old one repeal change it
to suit the public wishes Hence the Legislature may
qure vote to be taken to holding new Convention,
and prescribe the time for the election Of delegates the
period for the Convention to meet &c., should majority
Of the popular decide in favor Of Convention Hav
ing made false step, cannot too speedily retacs it,
especially the public interests require it to be DONE
But leaving this matter Of a Convention for
sideraton, hope that the Legislature will take imme
date steps suppress crme to its punishment
with more certainty than exists at present.

Crime has been Justly spoken Of as the assertion
Of principle of conduct involving threat of its
repetition 1t was the taste of the spols that began
what is now an alarming evil, incapable of cure. In
FIVE years it has grown up in this city to an extent
that makes every honest citizen pause and shudder.
The nation must change its tone, and elevate itself
above this dangerous condition, or it will be imma-
terial what is our fate.
The idea that the possession Of CUBA ,cW consoti-
date The institution Of slaoery is wholly erroneous.
1t will have an opposite result. We freely admit
that the Southern States are bound, as matter of
the highest duty to see to their own preservation.
Out of the relation of Government their present
happiness and safety, and their future happiness
and safety, are alike to be secured Much has hap
pened in the Northern States to give them alarm,
and create apprehension; but better feeling is
growing up, and more just appreciation Of the diff
fculties to be encountered in removing system 80
deeply rooted in the habits and circumstances of the
people. If not shocked by an an attempt to lead
the country in the direction of injustice the North
will grow into that condition when they will take
upon themselves, in connexion with their Southern
brethren, all the contumely which the refusal to
plunge the South into the troubles Of st. Domingo
or Jamaica may bring upon the country from the
residue of mankind. The safeguard of the South
lies in the policy of cultivating brothery relations
with all those who exist together under this Govern
ment The New Orleans Delta lately charged that
the expression Of such views was extorted from us
by considerations connected with the interests of
shopkeepers and their customers We say to that
point that it will ever be fortunate for our country
that the bonds of interest help to connect it toge
ther; but we know not how to express the scorn
that we feel for those narrow minds that attribute
to selsaness what arises from hope that glorious
country may be saved and perpetuated, and made
noble blessing to mankind.

" MIssIss1ppI-Governor FooTE has appointed
B. N. KENYON United States Senator in place
of the Hon. WALKER BROOKE, whose term ex-
spires on the 4th of March next. Mr. KENYON is
"a Union man, and holds his seat in theASenate
until the Legislature elects his successor"
We have observed the above paragraph in many
Of the newspapers within the last few days, and
know nothing of the main fact which it processes to
communicate. We think it highly probable, how
ever, that there is some mistake in it. It is true
that the term of one of the Senators from Missis,
sippi will expire in March next, but it is equally
true that the Legislature Of that State apprzed
at its last session of this prospective vacancy and
either refused to elect new Senator or failed in
the effort to do So Under these circumstances the
Governor has no power over the appointment, as he
can only fill vacancy incidentally occurring A
case directly in point was settled twentyseven years
ago. by the Senate ITSELF when, disrcgarding several
precedents, (being cases in which no objection had
been raised it refused to recognise the commission
commencing with regular term, which was granted
to Mr.. LANMAN by the Governor of Connecticut
This Judgment, given against an Executive appoint
ment which was perhaps entitled to greater weight
from its having been made in pursuance Of the
statute law Of Connecticut, has stood until the pre-
sent day. We presume, therefore, that MIssIs-
sIpp1 will remain unrepresented in Of her Sena
torial chairs until her Legislature shall elect per-
son to M it, and in this respect she will be in the
same condition as NORTH CAROLINA, whose Legis-
lature has in like manner failed to choose Senator
to occupy Of her seats that will become vacant
on the 4th of March next
