tisut from each county wan appointed.
The meeting was large--composoi OF the
best intellect of the State and men who sank
all minor difference in the ono great over
vhelming consideration Of preserving the
government
In these times, that may DO justly ssid tc
try mems souls, II Is refreshing 10 witness 8
gathering OF men Of such true patriotism and
such enthusiastic love Of country. The res
olutions passed, and the address published &c
the ,."r'",f the State by this convention
and found in another column Of our paper
are calculated to warm anew the patriotic
hearts Of the oya! people of Maryland and
wake up in their bosoms more intense pur.
pose to sustain and firmly cling to ths gov.
eminent of their fathers rather than ~ try
some ner system of government the offspring
Of the Vaccinations of willy, dcceitful and de-
signing demagogues. We advise our rcaders
to pcruse carefully the resolutions and the
address Of tho Convention, RS We are sure
.hev will give them their cordial endorsement
and will find much In them to fsed tho fame
Of their patriotism.
