Exciting News from Baltimore.

Thursday morning the people of Baltimore
were astonlshod by the report that during the
night Geo. p Kane the Ma, Sal Of Police, had

The facts seem to be that about clock

I iary proceeded TO the residence Of Geo. p.
Kane, Marshal Of Police. The house was
surrounded. and the commanding officer rarg
the bell. The MrrShal made his appearance
at the window. and was informed that he was
wanted. lie then came down to the froLt
door. and was informed that they came to
arrest him. A hack was in waiting, in
which the Marshal was placed and he was
driven TO Foit Mcilenry. The policemen on
the route were takcn into custody TO prevent
any unnecessary alarm, but were liberated
on the arrival Of the troops with their
prisoner at the Font where he is still
confined.
Early in the morning proclamation from
Gen. Banks was made public, declaring that
1t was not his intention to interfere with the
legitimate exercise OF authority by officers Of
the city. but, there were in Baltimore unlaw-
full combinations Of men employed in furnish
ing arms. ammunition and soldiers to the
rebels, Of which the Marshal of Police was
not only cognizant, but actually guilty of
protecting those engaged in their Reasonable
transaction.
Col. john r. kinly, who Inns heretofore
commanded the first Regiment Of Maryland
Volunteers, was appointed Provost Marshal
During the day the board Of Police Commits

We find in last weeks Democrat

no doubt, over the lamcntablc course OF The
Wig, in not fastening up with an apology
10 Mr.. Webster for making some editorial
remarks upon his tardiness in giving the
people some satisfactory dec.arat ion of his
unqualified Union sentiments lfany apology
is needed. we think it should be to the Union
party for Mr. Webster's keeping them in sus-
pense so long as to his true position, for
there are great many shades and grades of
Union men, and the Union party that Mr..
Webster was nominated to represent in all its
published resolutions, constantly declared
that no man who was not openly pledged for
unqualified Union could command the votes
of or represent that party. MIR. Webster
however, did declare himself unqnalifedly for

come from what quarter it might. in public

party Of his political soundress on the
absorbing question of the day, and they
beng satisfied having voted for and elected
him, although he tod them he did not need
their votes, as he was sure TO be elected
without them,-we can't see where any
apology is required. We notice the remarks
Of this Secession correspondent Of The DEM
ocrat, who sneers at the hosting of the flag
of his country in the same letter that he

The PATENT REApER.-A few even
ings ago as we sat quietly alone on the back
veranda of what may be termed Bachelors

lures having taken up their abode there, where
no gaiter boot or slken slipper in fairy light
ness ever treads-the old familiar sound of
The reaper came, waited across the green
marsh from the golden fields of" Holly Hall, /"
borne on the qniet evening air awakening a
thousand memories of the busy, tceming
past. The fields Of blooming clover, and
then the new mown hay-the winrow, cocl,
and stack, with spire-like top the CLEANED and
bleaching stubblc, and the rumbline wane
with load high piled and broad, homeward
bound and moving with snuil-lke pace. And
then again wide sweeps of billowing wheat,
rolling like ocean waves before the wind, to
purple turning as Ceres approached. Anon
with golden straw and dropping head inviting
the reaper with his cleaning steel. Such are
the thousand memories that oft one familiar
sound will awake, thronging up from the
orient realms of lisping infancy, and trooping
toward the murky bonrn of Time.

O@The following brief editorial which we
find In the Delaware Republican. suits this
latitude so well that we transfer it to our
columns.
TIE PEACE CONVENTION We trust that
the so ca He'd Peace Convention which will be
held at Dover, OF Thursday, the 9th inst,
will pass off quietly. The friends of the
Union should not interfere with it in any
shape or form. If resolutions urging the
acknowledgment of the Southern Confrdcr-
acy are Offered, or countenance and comfort
extend to those who are endcavoring to sub.
vert the Government, the responsibility
should be allowed to rest where it belongs. =
The men who now condemn the efforts being
made to resist aggression on the Government,
Will obtain as ignominious reputation as
attached 10 the delegates who assembled at
Hartford. Conn, in the late war. We can
have peace at any time the rebels will lay
down their arms and retire to thsir usual avo-
cations. They made the war, and they are
responsible for il. The Government is acting
on the defensive, and he who will not now
stand by and uphold it is traitor at heart,
no matter what he may call himself 1t is
possible that some may find apologies for the
rebellion. bat no fair minded man will
attempt its justification. Good Union men
are i'll favor Of sustaining the Government
and those who are in favor of ackuowledg.
ing the jeff Davis Confectionery are dsunion-
lists. Let the people look well to their acts,
and be careful how they follow men who will
lead TO social and political ruin! Our State
enjoys protection in the Union, out of it she
would be annhilated.
