In he Inaugural address to the people

saving grace which will bring about the
much desired solution. II our Repabli-

great feat of craftsmanship can be ac-
complishcd, and at the same time stand

the platform upon which Mr.. Lincoln
was crIrled into his present position.
There are at least nine States which will
never be governed by those principles,
unless we are greatly mistaken. II these
States 90 on in the course seven OF them
are already traveling-have their own

under foot the American flag short,
having everything pretty much in their

that the feelings Of the Baltimoresns
should have been hurt at 90 trivial an
affair Is the charge so broadly br, ught
by that paper and others, and acted upon
by Mr.. Lincoln, that there existed in
that city band sworn to the assassioa-
ton of the President elect on bis way to
assume the duties Of government. 1t
applies, however, the following salve to
the wounded honor of Baltimore:
But there can be no harm 10 saying
now, that according to our understand
ing of the matter, this plot did not orig
mate in Baltimore. but in South Caro-
lima, and the intended actors il it were
from that State. Baltimore had been
selected AZ the scene on which that plot
was to be executed, because it was sup
posed that, with the arrangements made,
escape from that city into = section
where the Federal authority is wholly
repudiated, and where the assassins of .
Republican President might expect pro-
lection, wonld be much more feasible
than from any other point"
The Tines says that the impression
that those who made the charge must
make public all they know in regard to
the alleged plot, if they would escape
the severest censure," Is q mistake. II
the Times and the other authorities for
the viIla,nous SANDER had ma 10 public
all they kne,o in reference to the pre-.
tended plot, and had made public no
more than they kne,e, the second Jack
son" would not have been made fool
Of, and the Times would not have been
driven to the extremity Of the above
lying apology.
