The Stnte OF a Gairs In Princess Anne.
Many questions have been addressed to US
lately with regard to the probable event of the
election in Princess Anne county. as ex-
Governor Wise a candidate fur the Convention
Has he opposition ? Is he sure Of election ~
are questions which have reached US in q mul.
tiplicity of forms.
In these busy times, we have little Or no
time for private correspondence, and take the
liberty to furnish such answers as we can
through the columns ofthe Enquirer"
Shortly after the passage Of the act Of As
sembly calling Convention, Gov Wise was
invited to be candidate by some 80 citizens
of Princess Anne, without distinction Of party.
He consented to run, If nominated by full
and fair popular meeting. 4 large popular
meeting was held at the Court House, without
distinction Of party, after due advertisement ;
and Gov. Wise was nominated almost unani
rnously. Indeed, we are told that one mem
Der OF the meeting, and but one, dissentcd.-
Gov. Wise addressed the meeting. and refer
red them to his letter published in the "En
ouirer Of the 7th ultimol asa summary express
sion of his views and sentiments. Since then
he has remained at home, taking no steps to
secure nm election. Iudeed, the serious illness
Of a member of his family has altogether pre-
vented him from quitting his plantation, and
even obliged him to decline attendance at any
Of the precinct meetings.
Gov. Wise has very active and energetic op
position, in the person Of Mr.. Edgar Burroughs
q retired preacher Of the Methodist persuasion
formerly Wing, later an ardent member o.
the Know Nothing order native, we believe,
of the county, and with a large and influential
family connection there. Mr.. Burroughs and
his friends have been very active, strong ei
forts have been made, on party grounds. to give
him the consolidated support of the Wings and
Know Nothings, who command nlajorIty in
the county; md every effort has been made To
work on the fears Of the people, by represen'
tations busily circulated to the effect that Gov
Wise is bent on hurrying an armed collision
n any event
How the election will probably be decided,
we have no reliable means of asccrtalning.
But we are assured by all of our lnloIInants,
that in any event Gov. Wise can muster enough
good and true men in the county, armed and
ready to meet an invading enemy, or to starve oil
approaching invasion. This he and his friends
are prepared for, and will do, whatever the
coming Convention may do, or leave nndone.
In word whatever may be the result OF the
election, Princess Anne will not and cannot
fail into the hands either OF Black Republican
troops. or Of their allies, the submissionst par

j. \. SPENCER, ESq.-Sir: had resolved in
my mind to reply 10 10 letters addressed ne
from any one, concerning tile manifold qucs-
tons that haze Of late gained footing in our
distracted country. But as have frequently
had the same heterogeneous propoundcd to me
by others, and as your letter seems to be die
tated in spirit Of kindness, seeking informa-
zion only, have concluded for the present to
waive my resoveand reply, giving you pcrnis-
sion to dispose Of my answer as you see fit
You ask "uad the jurisdiction Of the crime
committed by Brown and others been Surren-
dered TO the Federal Government, and judg-
mcnt thereon delayed until the 4th of March,
next, would yon CD have exercised the par.
doning power?' answer: have carefully
reviewed the testimony in said case, and in my
opinion Brown committed no offence against
lhe Federal Government meritlng such severe
punishment as he received. The most he COM
nitted against The Federal Government was a
gross misdemeanor Had ! been the Go
rernjr Of your State | might have pursued
the course he did. Yet even then there were
Stroug mitigating circumstances Brown was,
no doubt Il lnonomaniac on the subject Of negro
slavery; and rs such, close confinement would
have been more in accordance with the die
tates Of justice
10 your sccond, reply in the negative, for
this reason: said decision is hostile to the ad
vancc'ncnt Of Republican principles, and there
fore attended with danger in Government
like ours.
Hoping the above will prove satisfactory,
am, sir, your obd't serv't,
ISignel. a. LINCOLN.

Maryland Moving,

AS the aggressive designs of Black Republi
canism become more and more apparent by the
outgivings Of the followers und chosen mouth
pieces OF Lincoln, the eyes ol the people o
the border States are gradually being opened
and the men who short while since, cJamored
loudly for Union" "Union," are nov chang
ing their notes to calls for separate State nc.
tlon. They also see that there is not rs much
danger in precipitation" into Southern
Contederacy-in which they will be able tc
defend themselves, and dictate their own terms
AS there is Of ''prccipitation" into Black
Republican Confedrracy, from which there will
be no other alternative but that Of abicct sub
mission to every aggression, or i bloody, inter.
ninablc struggle, such us mankind has not vet
Witnessed
Gov. Hicks it seems, has welded alI the
powers Of his Office in endeavoeing to silence
the voice of Maryland in this crisis; sut the
people of that gallant State are holding, public
meetings and denouncing his course in llnnis,
taxable language.
a large and very enthusiastic meeting was
held in Baltimore, last Friday night.
Dr.. A. c. Robinson presided, and delivered
an eloquent and spirited address OH taking the
Chair. He said the people Of Maryland should
speak out Silence performs no duty. The
North and the South should hear the voice OF
Maryland, and recognize that it comes from the
South Of Mason and Dixon's line.
The meeting was also addressed by S. Teake
Wallis w H. Norris, Ro. NJ. McLane Ex.Gov.
Lowe, j. NJ. Kilgour and others. all denounced
Governor Hicks, in the strongest terms. Res
olutions were offered and adopted in favor OF
the Crittcndon compromise; against the course
Of Governor Hicks; against the designs Of the
Black Republicans; against coercion, and in
favor Of local organizations Of the people who
are opposed to coercing the seeding States.
Elected by fraud, and ruling like a despot,
and refusing Maryland chance be heard, Mr..
Lowe said
"If Gov. Hicks dares to refuse this privilege
longer, and by so doing Shall endanger the
safety Of the State, / LIFT lcithin the State the
banner Of rsrolt against him! Loud cheers
we'll fellow you'll The Black Republicans
may pay the price for you, but they cannot hold
you. There will be no secret conspiracy, but
an open proclamation to all the world.
''lf it shall become manifest that after Virgi-
MIA has taken action, we cannot net for ourselves
If it shall hereafter become manifest that we
are to be sold, meN gib6et the sellsrt." [Vocir-
erous cheers.
Mr. Kilgour (who has been prominent
Whig said Gov. Hicks and Henry Winter Da.
Wis had sold Maryland TO the Black Repuhli.
cans of the North. and urged his hearers to
break of all party ties, consult the honor and
interest of the State, and stand upon the SAME
platform with himself
The meeting resolved 10 hold elections for
delegates to represent Baltimore in State
Convention to meet on the 18th inst.
Gov. Hicks has thus driven his people to re-
volution, by his most extraordinary and dicta-
torial course.
