WHERE WILL MARYLAND GO,

We would call the attention Of Southern
merchants, about to make their fall purchases,
. to the following paragraph from late speech,
by Henry Winter Davis, Of Baltimore
~ repeat, again. our interests are with the
Opposition Of the North. We grow neither
, cotton, sugar, nor rice; neither do they We
arc interested in agriculture, commercial and
inanalac;urin. pursuits, and therefore our in
tcrcsts are with the North, and with them
alone will further add that Maryland intc-
rests are sustained by the Opposition party of
the North, and voted down by Southern De-
mocratS.
Maryland's representative has taken the lead
in >cvering her connections with the slave
States Mr.. Davis the Know.Nothing repre-
sentative, advises coalition "with the Opposi.
ton Of the North that is, the Black Rcpub.
leans We have long known that Mr.. Davis's
proper position was with the Black Repubi-
cans-and the able representative Of Baltimore
Plugs will find his proper position among the
Black Republicans of the North; the country
has never assigned the Plug Ugly representa-
tive any other atfliation, than with the Black
Republicans-a traitor to Know Nothinsism is
the proper ally Of Black Republicansm -
The above extract demonstrates that the csti.
nation placed upon Mr.. Davis's sincerity to
the South, by the students Of the University
Of Virginia was correct and that he was and is
wholly unworthy to address Southern audi
cncc.
But we have noi so much to do with Mr..
Davis ard his Black Republican aiiinitics as we
hare with the city Of Baltimore. Her repre-.
sentative having announced that her Interests
arc with the Opposition Of the North" We
take the city at the declaration Of Mr.. Davis,
and call upon the merchants Of Virginia and
the South 10 leave Baltimore trade to the sop
position Of the North" Will any Southern
mrrchan; again seek Baltimore to purchase
goods after this declaration Of her abandoning
the Southern States:
with the North, and with them alone" let
the South leave the city Of Baltimore, and find
elsewhere city Of supplies. The rowdyism of
Baltimore has already deferred many Southern
nc.c:Iants-and, We arc informed, that Phia
dclphia has had more Southern merchants
among her purchasers than ever was known
before Rlchmond-a city Of the South--also
offers inducements to Southern merchants
equal to Baltimore, and is perfectly secure from
Plug Uglies and pick-pockcts.
Our wholesale jobbing houses are supplied by
direct importations, and by large wholesale
purchases from the manufactures of the North,
and Richmond is prepared to supply, on favor
able terms, every customer who may give her
Il call.
New York and Philadelphia can be reached
from Richmond without passing through Balti-
more. and the merchant who cannot supply
himself in Richmond can comfortably reach the
northern cities by the steamers, and transmit
his purchases, at low frcights, to the south
crn and western railroads
Let every Southern merchant give Richmond
a call before purchasing elsewhere. Let them
avoid the Southern city whose Interests are
with the North alonc;" whose rowdyism
renders neither life, limb nor pockets safe,
and whose representative thus defianty pro-
claims Baltimore independent of the South.
