protection Of the Police, whose sympathies with
Seoess,on are no longer conceded they VIII PACK
the City Convention with suitable instruments
for furtheIing the OBJECTS OF the movers I'D thiS
rebellion, not only against the Federal Govern
ment bat against the State Government. and It's
Executive. Most Of the places OF meeting are
the usual haunts of the ancient Democratic party,
and the process for choosing delegates Will b. by
the ordinary party machinery.
County meetings of the same party, the old
Democracy, how converted into SecesslOnsts,
have been held in s.. Mury's Prince Georges, and
Caroline. In the first, they refused to graut
sovereign power to the delegates, but required
their acton to be submitted TO the vote OF the
people. In the second, they granted full soV-
areign power, but on the same condition. Id the
latter, the Federal party voted down the Dlsrup-
tioLists, AID refused % send any delegates. 10
day, the Talbot Democrats try the issue, and 1t
II believed they viii also be voted down. In
Kent, G mass Convention has been called, and,
II the Federalists are as true as they were some
weeks ago, they will route the enemies Of the
Republic.
The rumor Of insurrection in St. Mary's IS all
fudge. Some trouble arose between white man
and negro boy, who let his tongue run too
freely, and forthwith the newsmongerS masuhed
the affair into Importance. The boy was, OF
course punished for his insOlence. The deport-
ment of the negro population throughout the
State lie said ts offer no salient points Ut oeJec-
tics. No change has been observed in,their
behavior in Baltimore calculated to excite
remark.
The general feeling in the city toward the get
tcrs-up of the Secession meeting last Friday, and
thoee who figured so largely on its boards, is
that of pity and indignation, running occasionally
into contempt Before they are done they may |
get into trouble.
One of the schemes of the Federal ofice-hOld- |
ers in this city, to annoy Mr.. Line Inns Admins
tration, is to hold over, and refuse to allow their
saccassors to take their Seats but Mr.. Lincoln
wall be apt to make short work of such move
msat, sbould it be attempted. There are, how
ever. three of the ofhcials-the Postmaster, the
Naval Officer, and the Navy Agent -who will not
be caught in any such low trckery; and, / think,
may add the incumbent of the Marshals Office
30 this list Of lsw.and-Order men.
The insolent and hectOring tone of John Tyler's
correspondence with the President e1cites the
diesust of every true hearted citizen whom have
encountered. Only think of a man who has
been President Of these United States, even by
accident, engaged in the unhOly work of pulling
down the noble structure of the Federal Govern
xneDti
lam credibly informed, through an eyewitness,
HAT the contrast of the South Carolina negro
army of picks and shOyes with the snow white
ssod of Morris Island and other parts of the sea-
shore, affords serious theme of reflection with
those of the whites Of that rebeous region who
stall retain their power Of reflection. What
bitter satire is it upon people who are seeking
10 escape from the bonds OF determination with
tasir Northern brethren of the color, be-
cause the latter are opposed to extending Slavery
into free territory, to See that same people de-
pending upon the slave to do their fghtiDg-work
Sor them!
Again: l learn from reliable source that ne
srses are actually employed in the rural districts
and aroand the villages Of South Carolina to
watch white men, and TO report them and their
conduct to the Vigilance Committees, and that
spon negro testimony white men are dealt with.
Recently, poor white long time resident of the
State, stepped into the negro cabins along the
road he was travelling some three or four times,
10 hight his pipe. He was reported by the negro
patrols, and on being arraigned. bis accusers
wore rebuked for their oficiOuSness; but when
they ssid that the accused had been too often
among them, be was banished the country in
Double quick time
An amusing case is told of a white who was
shipped out Of South Carolina, in charge OF one
II the express companies. He was found weep
ing in the car assigned to him. Upon being
questioned upon the cause Of his grief, he said |
Chat he had lived more than dozen years in the |
State, and that his ofsnse was his Mormon pro. |
cliyities-adding that, if every in the State |
sas driven out for this cause, it would soon be |
without any defenders whatever
The high-bsDded conduct of Louisiana in |
ssiziug upon the New-Orleans Mint and stealing
q million Of the public treasure, is beginning to
open the eyes Of many in this city who have
Seen blinded by passion in favor Of Secession.
People are ceming 20 the conclusion that LATTE
end bic buccaneers have come to life again in
:Barataria Bay
TAe Baltimore Sun Of to-day openly coIfesses
sAas the sole purpose Of the South Carolina re.
bellon was TO break the Republican party into
pieces, and that the failure Of the Border Slave
States TO aide with South Carolina and 60 out Of
Che Union has blown up, moi the Republicans
But the Cotton States.
