reflect they must see that they cannot roll back
n revolution which is surging over their thresh-
holds by resortng only to the means which are usu
ally adopted to influence county election. More
serious work is before the people Of Baltimore if
they hope to come with little hurt and without
dishonor out Of the impending struggle, and the
sooner they set about it the better.
There is, however, one other point of view from
which this call for UNION meeting should be
considered. They who attend it will be expected
ITO respond cordially to the sentiments of the
"UNIoN men of Frederick county" These senti-
ments were, it will be remembered, expressed in a
series of resolutions, passed at county meeting,
held on the 26th of March, and the propositions
therein contained must if now accepted by the pco-
pie, commit Maryland forever henceforth to q union
with the Northern States. tits therefore possible,
that many of those who have arranged the pro-
gramme of the UNION meeting Monday have
contemplated and desire 10 bring about that very
result; and the call upon which we have com
mented may be, not the meaningless demonstra-
ton we have termed it, but covert and carefully
considered scheme to lead the people of this STATE
into an alliance with the North, without consult
ing their Wishes and before they are aware of the
tendency of the movement. But we must defer
present any discussion of the proposed meeting il
connection with the resolutions adopted at Fred
| aricI-

In another column will be fond the procIama-
ton of Governor HICKS in which he gives the
people the assurance that no Maryland troops
shall be sent beyond the borders of this
State, except to defend the National Capital. 1t
will be, we are sure, matter Of profound regret
to our citizens, that Governor Hicks did not
promptly follow the course of the Governors
of North Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee;
but if he intends to accede to the de-
porance whether he does so conditionaly or not.
