Carolhi;n by birth, will never raise hs hand
arairst he stare and stripes. He has been de-
pounced BY the rebels as a traitor to their
cause.
The new ard sudden turn that the tide OF
trade has taken from the South to New-fork,
exercises US Baltimoreans not ht'le (i,5~
bales of cotton left Memphis for New-York, VIA
Pittsburgh last Saturday,, especially in connec-
ton with the fact that our great highway over
the AIeqhanies has just been ehoused OUT OF
acme f,ns of thousands of dollars of freight

to send produce this way; and 1t does not MAKE

land may get the bit of rebs lion III her mouth
and plunge out Of the Union We fought hard
enough last year TO make the port OF Baltimore
an entrepot for portion Of the direct trade
with Europe; and now, just as we were hoping
to realize our fondest expectations IN This re-
spect, the demon of discord and rebellion aud
compromise must step in to neutraze al our
forts Ii is too bad but if We suffer now,
what will not beal US if We are forced into the
embraces of South Carolina
Though Maryland is considered impresnable
against the assaults of the secessiohlss you mast
lot suppose the latter are abatlng single Jot oil
their efforts TO reyolutionze the State and plunge
| us into rebellion. Their leading spirits here and
| in the counties are defsut, and threaten ruin to
ever, body, unless the Republicans yield to the
demands of Powell 4 Co., to open Mexico south
of $50 30 to fllbusterism and Slavery. This is
the ultimatum Of our Maryland compromlsers oi
the Secession school. That they have secret
political organization, is no secret. IL extends
through oil the counties, and has It's beadquar-
ters in this city. If the Ath of February Con
ference does not result in granting their ultima
tum, they swear they will turn matters neither
side up aud if they do nothing more, inaugurate
reign of anarchy, terror, and confusion.
The Minute Men Of Baltimore, Bell aud
Everett political organization in the last fresi'
deptiai canvass, have taken on the military sn's'
acter, aud they now count some 200 members
Of whom some sC0 or 200 are actively engaged
- drilling. &c, They declare themselves agalo..',
Mary,and's leaving the Union, but they want Tue
P.nublicans 70 surrender something, "A n qnd
pro quo. Ii il said by the ms that tcy wll be
csntent with the local Federal Offices, but thus
| must be a bit of malice, for they do not pretend
10 be Republicans, and like the gallant Gov
| Hicks, would never allow their patriotism 10 pe
called in question by accepting political iavoFS at
tie bands of their opponents.

Thi. purpose is not given up, because the idea Is
industriously fomc nted that failure to complete

TO be depended on; but there are some men
among them who say they will hesitate, if not

The atmosphere of our city is freghted, just
now. with rumors Of Republican detection, suf
fcient to surrender the whole ground occupied
BY the party on the Slavery Extension question,
but am not disposed to place any reliance in
them, as at present advised Strategy in war Ia
onen more eGectual than pitched battles.
The new States Attorney for the city Is Arch.
ibald Sterling, egg, sterling appointment every
way. Mr.. 5. is for the Federal Government, out
| and out, almost.
President FELTON, of the Philadelphia, Whining
ton, and Baltimore Railroad, has stationed guards
at all the bridges on that highway TO prevent
any injury to those structures from the hands OF
the mscreants who have threatened their de-
struction, to prevent President Lincoln from
passing over them.
