TzE MAEsIA VoFg we sec that the result Of
the recent municipal election in Baltimore is |
claimed by letter WRITER'S and by the Breckinridge
press ID the counties 81 the State as INDICATING he
strength pf sha Secession party, and their power to
give majority fof their candidates in November.
PFaEidHs 70 hat election tho vote Of Maryland was
given without dispute ID Bell and Everett whilst it
il HOW regarded al a question of doubt-bnt, as
We shall presently show, without any substantial
reason. The contest did not turn on national
politics. Both 81 the candidates for Mayor were
Rel ind Everett men, and whilst Mfr. Hindes was |
Sustained exclusively by members of the Union
party, the vote ef Mr.. Brown was composed of the
fTands ri Breckenridge, Douglas, Lincoln and Bell

The Union engtl in all parts Of the State will
be tullg bfoaght OUT. In Western Maryland il is
more tan probable tilt tie Democratic vote willie
nearly divided between Douglas aud Bseckinridre. |
" other paass q The State DOUGLAS has also con
siderable strength. We therefore regard it as a |
folly to suppose that the vote of the State can be
cast against the Uhion candidates. provided their

We hepe 70 see INC Bell and Everett ticket success
MT not by plurality vote but BIZ clear majority
over all other andidates. EBtinore American.
