The Baltimore papers have been occupied late
ly with the projected meeting Of citizens which
was convened last Monday under the following
CALI
FELLOW CITIZENS OF BA1rnoRE, IRRESPECTIVE OF PART
We earnestly call you to assemble with US in town
meeting, Monument square, on Monday afternoon the
9th day Of September at four O'clock to deliberate With
us and devise Of rescuing our city from its
present deplorabe condition Your presence in mass VIII
give moral force and power that will insure success
Affixed to this manifesto are the names of
over two thousand of the leading citizens, pro-
fessional men, merchants, tradesmen, &C., of
the Monumental City. The phraseology of the
call is sufficient to show the exigency which
has induced it, It is an earnest demand for the
people of the city to assemble in town meet
ing, the oldest form of democratic government,
the simplest and pufest as well, to deliberate
and devise some means for the ''rescue" of the
city from its present deplorable condition. 1t
is direct return to first principles, and the
first step towards resumption by the people
of the government which, in bad hands, has not
only disgraced Baltimore throughout the Union,
but has brought much scandal upon American
institutions all over the civilized world Last
year the Governor of Maryland was about to
place the city of Baltimore under martial law,
in order to guarantee the freedom of suffrage
to all citizens during the October elections.
Think of it-republican institutions, and free
suffrage, their basis, to rest upon bayonets The
city authorities averted this very necessary
step by promising to preserve order; but things
are even in o worse state now than they
were before. Life and property are no Logger
! safe in Baltimore, which is not border town,
half civilized, and filled with fugitives from the
| older settlements but an old, wealthy and
! important city, as celebrated for the refinement
and culture of its middle and upper classes Is it
Is notorious for the brutality, cruelty and fefoci
| ty of its street rufians. 1t is marvellous that
| in such city, within two hours journey from
| the federal metropolis, such meeting as that
we have alluded to is not only desirable but
absolutely necessary.
We trust that the meeting, which, on account
of violent storm, has been postponed until
tomorrow, will have its due effect. Ifnot, then
one of two deplorable things must come to
pass-either martial law must be proclaimed
during the approaching election, or the rowdy
classes of Baltimore must be put down by
| vigilance committee. We hope that the citi-
zens will 60 to work at the ballot box to re-
dress their own grievances, and that their sad
condition will not be without its exemplary
effect upon New Workers., who, had this city
been no larger than Baltimore, would have
been placed in equally as bad situation as
the people Of that city

THE HARvEsTs OF THE WORLD--PROsPECTS FOR
CHEAP MARKETs.-The blessings of bountiful
harvests have not been limited this year to any
particular quarter of the world. All nations
and peoples are rejoicing alike in the fulness
with which the earth has yielded her fruits.
Our own crops are larger by an average of
twenty-five per cent than they have ever been
before. The harvests in England and Ireland
are represented as excellent In France the
yield of wheat has been but little below the
average, and that decline is counterbalanced
by large reserves of old wheat, which will pre-
vent the possibility of high prices All over
the Continent the harvest has been either equal
to or better than that of former years. Our
latest despatch from Liverpool speaks of bread
stuffs and provisions being very dull in that
market and sales unimportant.
1t is, therefore, quite clear that our agricul-
turists need not expect to get high prices for
their produce this year. Our exports of grain
to Europe will not be on very large scale.
The excellence of the harvests there forbids
such an idea. But of late years the social
condition of the working classes of the popuia
ton of Europe has been improving, and conse-
quently the consumption of -four has been IN
creasing. This may tend measurably to aug
ment our export of grain; but still, all things
considered, that export cannot be very large.
The farmer therefore, who boards up the pro-
duce of his fields in the hope that he will OBJ
tain higher prices ratSsr San hv
the DELAY. Our agriculturists must be content
that the righteousness Of the harvest counter
balances the low price of grain; and as to
those Of our people who are not engaged in
agricultural pursuits, they will have occasion
to be thankful for season Of great prosperity
and cbeapness,

ter into the business Of the Democratic Conven-
ton ofnext week Meantime, we are gratfed
to perceive that here and elsewhere even the
most mischievous leaders of the democracy are
beginning to appreciate the necessity of a cor
dial support Of Mr.. Buchanan's administration.
Thus there is still hope that, after few more
local chastisements for their folly, all the re-
bellous elements of the party may be brought
to comprehend their desperate situation and
their only remedy a general recognition and
defence of the administration, as the head and
front and platform Of the party.

The ALLEGED REDUCTION OF LABOR AT THE
CENTRAL PARK.-The rumor that the Commits
sioners Of the Central Park had discharged a
thousand laborers on Monday proves to be
inaccurate. 1t arose, no doubt from the fact
that few Of the gangs which numbered more
men than were required for the work on which
they were engaged were reduced, but to a
very small extent. The report gained credence
from the fact that the Central Park stock, offer
ed by the Comptroller few days ago, was not
taken to the amount expected or usual when
stock was previously offered. II, however, the
stock be not taken to the required amount and
speedily too, the Commissioners will most pro-
badly be compelled to make a considerable
reduction in the force now employed, as the
progress of the work depends upon the sup
plies thus received, according to the provisions
Of the law under WHICH they act.

Our NEW BOUNDARY DISPUTE WITH GREAT BRr-
rAN--Our advices from the Pacific indicate
considerable degree Of excitement In regard
to the question of the right Of sovereignty over
the Arroo islands, lying between Washington
Territory and landowners Island. We give
the details In another column. Previous des-
patches had made known the fact that the island
of San Juan, the principal of the group, had
been occupied by few of our troops; and now
we learn that achievements had been sent
there as if General Harvey apprehcnded that
an attempt would be made to dislodge them.
Governor Douglass had declared his intention
Of sending English troops there, and rumor
was also got up to the effect that thirty Ameri-
cans had been killed in an attack made on the
island by the British steamer Satellite. We do
not attach the slightest importance to this last
report, regarding it as a mere attempt to add
to the excitement, and, if possible, to precipi-
tate collision, which could not fail to lead to
deplorable results.
We stated the other day what the real facts
in this controversy are. The simple question
is as to which Of the two channels between
yancouyer's Island and the main land was in
tended by the negotiators to be the boundary.
Neither is specifically designated We claim
that it is the western one, known as the Canal
de Harro. The British claim that it is the east
ern one, known as Rosario Strait The former
would give the archipelago to us; the latter
would give it to the British
We can perceive no way of settling the ques-
ton except by peaceable compromise or by
arbitration In military point of view, San
Juan might possibly be of Importance in GER
tain eventualities 1t is, therefore, right to
have the sovereignty of it decided. The action
Of General Harvey, and of Governor Douglass,
of British Columbia, will accelerate such settle
ment and we doubt not that that has been the
motive of their respective movements Neither
government can substantiate the legality of its
claim, and therefore the question is eminently
one that should be settled by compromise, not
by force of arms

FOREIGN LOANS IN THE LONDON MARIETTA
SIGN OF THE TDiEs.-The result of the recent
Offering Of two public loans in the London
market has a political significance which is
worthy Of attention. Two governments come
before the money lenders with their drafts upon
futurity. England wanted twenty-five millions
Of dollars to settle up her India bills; Russia
asked for sixty millions for general purposes.
The rates of interest promised were nominally
different, one being five and the other three
per cent; but these were equalized by the price
set upon the stocks. Between the two govern
ments, in point of stability, credit and future
prospects, there is no difference. Yet John
Bull was willing to open his pursestrings and
shell out, nottwenty-fve but thirty-fve millions
of dollars, to sustain doubtful empire in India,
while for the Russian loan only two millions
and half could be picked up on London
Change. Rightly read the meaning of this is
that John Bull has got tired of paying the scot
for European crowns, and that the concerns on
the Continent have got to find somebody else
to discount their post obits. Those that cannot
raise the money they want in their own fami-
lies will soon have to take down their crowns
and put up the shutters of their palaces.

SOLDERING IN MAssAcHUsErTs.-The uniform
ed militia Of Massachusetts,, to the number of
about five thousand, are holding their first
general encampment at the order and under
the command of Governor Banks. The en-
campment is at Concord, where the first blood
of the Revolution was shed, on the 10th of
April, l775 Of course there is terrific ex-
element about the general muster" all over
New England, and there will be an amount of
going down to camp such as will utterly
eclipse the excursion Of the lamented Captain
Goodwin, Of immortal memory. On the last
day of the .encampment the troops will be re-
viewed by Major General Wool, and, wind and
weather permitting, the scene will be one
which has never been equalled "since Concord
fight" The idea of bringing the troops all
together in one field is an excellent one; here
tofore the division encampments having been
little more than so many wild sprees. The
presence of the Chief, in actual
command, and the strict enforcement of military
discipline, will do away at Camp Massachusetts,
with many Objectionable features of the old
fashioned muster and give to the very excel
lent volunteer militia Of Massachusetts, more
compact and homogeneous ensemble than it has
hitherto presented.
