From The Exchange. Saturday morning
Mr.. Lincoln the President elect Of the United States
will arrive in this city with lis suite this afternoon by
special train from Harrisburg, ard will proceed, we
learn, directly to Washington. Ii is TO be hoped that
opportunity may be afforded hm-or that. II 1t DC
afforded he will not embrace ito repeat in our midst
the sentiments which he is reported to have expressed
yesterday in Philadelphia.
From The American. Saturday. .
Mr. Lincoln passes through city to-day. AS the
representative Of political and sectional views which
find but few adheTents among our people and no gym
patty from the mases the President elect will mise
here the popular ovaions which have attended every
step Of his progress from Springfield up to the borders
of Maryland But while this is 90 we believe we
may cay with tie fullest reliance upon the good sense
and orderly instincts OF our people, that his translt
through Baltimore will not be marked by any demon
snions of opposite character, and that whatever
degree Of respect and consideration can be consistently
paid to his official position viii be quietly and properly
rendered.

arrive ia Baltimore to-day. He will thus put bis foot
upon Southern coil ard enter that section Of territory
in which those institutions eSs, and are esteemed by
the people against which he has declared an " IRE.
pre-eiblo conflict" He comes into that territorial
division of the country from which be received hot one
electoral vote aud ia which but meagec Representa-
ton of his party and views Ii 10 be found. 10 these
few lie nigh be very properly COMM ted. But Mr..
Lincoln by virtue of the Office TO whch he is elected,
wise, in which lie approaches the capital VIII he an
object of curiosity ~ thousands, no doubt; conse-
quenily he may expect TO meet large multitude, who,
Having nothing better to DO in ts artificial crisis,
will avail Themselves OF free ticket to have
Il look mt him. Will all tits We have lit
tie concern; but we have for something else.
/. l. Of great concern 10 oil who love and
would honor the State Of Maryland ana the City OF
Baltimore that no demonstration whatsoever should
lie made even BY a single indi idual i consistent with
cur selfrespect. We would thouraDd times rather
