DIsUNIoN MEETING IN BALrIMoRK-we CLEAN
from the Baltimore American the following ac-
count OF The secession gathering In Baltimore last
night:
The meeting held at the Maryland Institute last
night, though spirited and enthusiastic gather.
ing. was not one half as large, as earnest In Its
enthusiasm, nor respectable In Its PERSONNEL as
the splendid and imposing Union demonstration
held in the same building few weeks ago. On
that memorable occasion the vast hall of the Ins-
tute was densely crowded with an imposing rep
resentation Of the intelligence and commercial
enterprise Of Baltimore, while the gathering last
night only half filled the hall, though loosely
scattered over its space
About one hundred special policemen were
present among the spectators, for the double pur-
pose, apparently, Of suppressing any attempts to
interrupt the proceedings and to aid In stimulating
nthusasm-certainly none applauded with more
energy, or with more mal-apropos zeal than the
red-ribboned gentlemen.
There was no music provided for the occasion,
and those present were thus deprived Of That
solace to impotence and emollient to intense
mental and patriotic excitement-a deprivation
which appeared to be deeply felt, at least by one
earnest Individual In the vicinity Of the reporters
table, whose persistent and determined effort to
smoke a cigar and whistle sDixien simultane-
ousy, created for while some little amusement
The resolutions adopted approve the Crittenden
resolutions, assert that Maryland must cast her lot
with Virginia and the other slave States but, in
the event Of the State abandoning the Union offer
guarantee that the District Of Columbia and
Washington city shall be left to the peaceable
cupation of the Federal authorities until all ques-
tons relating thereto settled by negotiation
The resolutions then declare that Governor Hicks
does not represent the sentiments Of the people of
the State in the course be has pursued; denounce
his appointment Of commissioners to the Wash
ington Convention, and recommend the local or
ganizatiOn Of the citizens Of Baltimore who are
opposed to coercion and in favor Of the Constitu-
ton and the rights of the South. Finally, tue
resolutions initiate measures for State conven-
ton to be held i'm Baltimore on the 18th of Feb
ruary, to be composed Of double the number of
delegates to which the city and counties are en-
titled in the Legislature The delegates to this
cbinery of ward and district primary meetings
and city and county conventions. SO far as the
resolutions indicate, 1t is not designed either to
submit the question whether such a convention
shall be held to the people, TO elect the dele
gates thereto by vote. The meeting was presided
over by DR.. A. c. Robinson, and was addressed
by Hon. Robt. nj. McIane, VIM. II. Norris and
3. T. Wallis, Esqs., and Ex-Gov. Lowe
