RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IN MARYLAND.
wAsHIseroS, July, 1854.

WAsHlsGToS, July, 1854.
TO the Editor Of Me Union
SIN For time have been investigating the subject
of religious liberty in Maryland during the first twenty
years or SO of the colonial government and wish to learn
all can on the subject The Hon. Mr. Douglas, of the
United States Senate in speech recently delivered IN
Philadelphia, says:
"The Catholics who in turn oppressed ard pur-
sued by those who had felt the rod of their power found
ylum upon the banks OF the Chesapeake ana called
their little colony after their hvorte Queen Mary to which
circumstance the State of Maryland owes her name and her
origin
Now this implies think that Lord Baltimores colo
niss England account Of oppression and sought the
banks of the Chesapeake asytu Others have said
the same thing but unfortunately for Investigators they
like the senator did think it worth while to refer to
any authority know quite well that with many the
word of is enough 1t is not so, however, with
every and in respect of matters OF history We may De
allowed without rendering ourselves obnoxious to the
charge of captiousness respectfully ask for aories
when they have been cited in support Of an afrma-
ton For my own part | have been unable, after pa
research discover any reliable authority Tor the
point in question but the contrary, there is much ev
dence of motives Of different kind. The only support OF
such assertions that have been able to discover is simple
assertion conjecture it might be crmed of Oldmixon
sustained by evidence 1t is rotten straw, and
all that is hung upon must fall with it to the ground
IT. however Judge Douglas any other person in pos
session anything like conclusive evidence he will render
great service to the the truth history and much
obge those who seeking it, if he will be so kind as to
afford a reference thereto
Let the honorable senator take oencefor none is
ntendeda my observing that in reference to the naming
of the colony he to have committed The
colony named in honor of Henrietta Maria Queen OF
Charles the First and not after ther arore Queen the
daughter Of Henry the Eighth commonly called by Pro-
testans "Boody Mary" Had it been named after her,
Poeon Maryland would hardly have rested quietly under
it.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant
