Secession in Baltimore,


The following, says the Sacramento Bee, is
an extract from private letter, dated Balti-
more, August 20, 1861;
1t is pleasant to he among friends
here, but it would add an additional charm if
they were only my countrymen, which they
are not. Baltimore is just as much a seces-
sion city as Richmond-or Georgetown. In
all the music store windows you see pieces
headed with the secession flag, and entitled
The Confederaey March, or 'Beauregards
March," and especially the favor;e song
Maryland, my Maryland. beginning
"The despot's heel is on thy shore"
Little boys fly secession flag kites, and little
girls say "Hurra for JEFF Davis as they walk
up and down. 1t is a great comfort TO a
patriotic heart to see amidst such sights an
occasional couple of Duryea's red-Iegged
Zouaves, whom you feel to be the only power
that keeps this Internal volcano smohered
The position assumed by the gentlemen
here is peculiar one. The right of secession
is denied, and the original action of the
Southern States is condemned. But the
Southern Confederacy is now an established
fact, and should be recognized. And as to
Maryland, she has had wrongs enough to
justify her in assuming the iualienable right
OF rebellion, not of secession and that she
avowedly intends to do just as soon as she
gets chance to strike "a blow. Also, mas
much as the Confederacy is speedily to be ac
knowledged, it will be for the interest of
Maryland to go with the South, because then
Baltimore will be the New York of the Con-
federate States Moreover, in the inevitable
event las they assume) of the success of the
Confederate States, it would be impossible
for Maryland to remain with the North, be-
cause, as it would be the only slave State in
a "Confcderaey' of free States, it would he
the ugly duck the barnynrd, and would
be pecked to death by rabid abolitionists
Therefore it prefers to go to barnyard
where all the chickens are ugly ducks, and
where, from its own surprising hideousness, it
would be queen of the ducks
Such find to be the feeling of the gentle
men in this sweet city, and of course it only
remains to shoot such dangerous opinions out
of them. -.
