HICKA'H Last.

Gov. Hichss Message to the Legislature Of
Maryland is published on another page. ID con-
ssts Of two parts, namely, the history Of the
last fortnight, and the Governors recommends
tions concerning the future conduct of Mary land
The historical part is exceedingly defective. The
Governor says that he protested beforehand
| against the passage of Federal troops through
Maryland, but that his protest was not listened
| to. Here he fails 10 state that he assured the
| President and Secretary Of War that there was
no dagger Of trouble in Baltimore; that, notwith
standing the Mayor and Police Marshal were
Secessionists, tine Minnie Men, three thousand
strong, well organized, and under his control,
We're faithful at once to the Union and to Gov.
Hicks, aud would put down every attempt at
mob violence. lie fails 10 stats that il was on
the faith OF tbese assurances that troops We're
sent through Baltimore in such small numbers,
and SO i'll prepared for street fighting.
Again, he says that the Baltimore military
were ordered out {" preserve the peace; but he
omits 20 say that they at once made common
cause with the mob, ard that with their coGpe-
ration and without any opposition protest
from lin, Baltimore has ever since been as much
srrayed in war against the United States AZ
Charleston. lie says not word about the per-
sccntjcn and exile Of all peaceful citizens known
to be attached to The Union; not word Of the
proceedings Of tie Committee OF Regulators; not
a word If the acts of the municipal authorities,
ali fiagrantly REASONABLE; all this the Message
utterly ignores. The Governor neither reports
the facts to the Legislature, nor proposes any
action with respect to them.
In the second part OF his Message Mr.. Hicks
proves himself but little more adequate TO the
duty before him. He advises, very timidly, how.
ever, that the State shall not attempt to secede
from the Union, and should not undertake an
open war against the Federal Government. In
this he appeals to but single motive, the inter
est of the State. Not once does he allldc TO the
binding force of law, or the sacred obligation OF
loyalty. He does not tell the Legislature and
people of Maryland that it is their duty, at every
hazard. and with every sacrifice, to preserve the
Constitution and defend the integrity Of the Re-

ENFORCE THE BLOCKADE

Though the struggle has barely been begun on
the behalf Of the Union, after allowing the reb.
| els to have it ali to themselves for months two
points have already been made; namely; ]. The
| loyal States have been thoroughly aroused and
united; and 9. The Capital has been secured
against any force that can speedily be brought
against ii. Yet there is no time for pause or
hesitation, and while the defenders of the Union
| are mastering, armine, and drilling it is the
clear duty of the Government 10 close the ports
controlled b. the Dsunonists at The very earliest
moment.
Our merchants and shp-Owners have generally
met the responsibilities and pcys Of the crisis in
the noblest spirit. Men of large wealth. whose
property is all ahOst, and whose sympathes were
entirely with the Cotton States so long as they
acted within the law, said at once. hesring Of
the bonbardment Of Sumter: take all We
" haye--let it be coofscated or destrOyed but
" save tho country and yindcate The rightful
" authority OF the Government" Acting thus
n0by, they deserve the utmost protection for
their imperiled savings that be afforded them,
and TO this end the rebel ports should be- sealed
up at once, 90 as Ia prevent the railing o, any
more Of jeff. Davis's pirates and insure the cap
ture and punishment OF the few that may be al
ready on tho high seas
Congress authorized the building Of siN or
seven new 'sloops-of.war; but that will consume
ninety days, and the eSigency will not wait.
But let the money those sloops would cost be
instantly applied to tho purchase and outfit
OF len to twenty swift and strong prOpeers,
Baltimore clippers, ETC., etc., of light draft,
armed with rfed guns Of long range and sufficient
CALDER, and the whole coast from Baltimore to
Galveston may be blOckaded within three weeks.
Mobile Bay and the mouths Of the Mississippi
ought to be shut up within fortnight at fur
thest. There should DO national vessel of
twenty to sixty guns lying of each considerable
port, ready to fly 10 the aid Of any lighter craft
whom sssailed or seriously resisted but the work
Is to be mainly done BY gunboats, or whatever may
be the official designation of vessels drawing ten
% twelve feet and 30 equipped as to have the |

advantage alike in range of fire and in speed
over any craft they are likely to encounter.
Such vessels, we judge, may, IN the present
depression of the shipping interest be bought
for half their FIRST cost, while, if wisely selected
from the entire mercantile marine oil the
loyal States, aud armed with especial reference
to the work in hand, they will be OF more ser
vice than the proposed sloops would be. Let us
have the sloops too, if we may; but let a hot''ln
be bought and fitted up that will close the ports
of the Di.unionsts at once. That done, We can
proceed to deal with them on land moro at
leisure. But the National dignity, the security Of
our Commerce, the successful prosecution oi our
strurple for National existence, imper'tlvely
REQUIRE that the Rebel ports DO blocka6d at
once.
Let no one understand us to presume that the
Government is inattentivo to its duties Dr. de-
ficient in energy in the premises. We only point
ont one mode in which that duty may he per-
formed, so as TO give to our Commerce security
which it has richly deserved and which will b.

volged themselves at Baltimore, Ross WinapS
Thomas Winans Abel of The Baltimore Sun,
Kane, the Police Marshal, s. Teakle Wallis and

lhey are all traitors of the blacklist dye, and
amply merit the traitors doom. We now learn
the name OF another of these consprators TO de-
stroy the Union and ruin Maryland. II is
signed to the following order served upon q
peaceful citizen Of Baltimore on Tuesday last:
,. IN BALTIMORE April 53d
the State Of Maryland within twenty alter feiot OF
this note from date by authority Of the Regulators COMMITTEE.

When the final settlement Of accounts takes
place at Baltimore Mr.. w. G. II. Ehrman Of
the Regulators Committee of the State, need
not fear that he will be overlooked or forgotten.

public. Not q single suggestion OF enlarged
patriotism is there in all bis words. III the
Union is to be maintained by arms, he says let
US do our utmost to remove the contest far from
us, and let us take care that we have no part
or lot in it. Indeed, it would seem from his
style Of Language that he regards the people OF
Maryland as on the whole no better than traitors
at heart; apparently fear is the only argument
which be thinks will DO likely to influence them.
Thus he tells them that if they engage 10 the
war, their lives and their property will be en-
dangered But this could only be the case, II
they took the side Of the Southern conspiracy;
for certainly, if they enlist for the Union, the
Constitution, and the enforcement OF the laws,
they will be in no greater danger than the Peo-
pie of Pennsylvania or New.JerSey. All that
the Governor hopes to accomplish, then, Is 10
persuade them not to bring down upon them
selves at once the crushing power OF the loyal
armies of the Union.
But here again the Message is equally mper'
feet. The Governor does not even alude to the
imperative necessity Of ut once opening the road
through Baltimore to the troops and the people
of the Union, and of taking ample means to
punish those concerned 10 the late riots, as well
as to render their recurrence impossible. And
yet it is msnifest tnst if Maryland is not going
out Of tho Union she must instantly set about the
work Of calling Baltimore to order and obedi-
ence. As the Governor has withheld this import
ant subject from his Message, the Legislature
will allow us TO say that they cannot take it into
consideration q moment too soon, nor act upon
it with too great decision and energy.
Gov Hicks has never been supposed to be the
wisest, brayest, or honestest man in the world.
His Message viii hardly produce any change in
the estimation in which he il held by the public.
