IFrona the Baltimore /
A Bond of Union.

The historian Bancroft calls Baltimore,
Cincinnati, and st. Louis "the triad of
cities which are the fortresses of the Union,
the breakwaters against which the waves
of sedition shall dash, only to be driven
back" If this be so, how important is their
position among the cities of the earth how
cherished place should they hold in the
hearts of those who love the Union our
fathers formed and how useful and nee
essary must be the great modern highways
that bind them together in commerce, art,
and friendship. OF these highways, the
chief, the pioneer, and the great original,
from the necessities of trade created by
which others have sprung, is the Baltimore
and ONO Railway. One who intends pass
ing over II, from east to west, should first
read lrylng's account of Washington's last
journey to the West through the wilderness
how he crossed the Alleghanies then seem
ingly almost impassable, by fatigue marches;
how he bivouacked ir the wilderness and
how, after painful and tedious journey
which none but sturdy woodsman could
have accomplished, he at last reached the
waters of La Belle Rivtere
After reading this, the traveller can better
appreciate the greatness of the line of rail-
road that now connects the waters of the
Chesapeake and the Ohio, and with unsur-
passed regularity, speed, and safety, trans
ports passengers and freight to the extent of
over S5,O00,O00 of annual revenue, between

Virginia.

The Legislature Of Virginia has passed an
ordinance calling Convention Of the State
to assemble in Richmcnd, on Wednesday,
the 13,h of February. The election for del
cgates to take place on the fourth of Febru-
airy. The time is so short, that It is very
doubtful if the people generally, OF some OF
tic remote counties, will know anything Of
the election. 4 remarkable fact connected
with all the proceedings of the Southern peo-
pie is i haste aud preciVtance, that is any
thing else than cUmmeudablG in matters So
scri9us ~ arc those they are called upon to
cons der; there is one thing, however, in the
proceedings Of the Virginia Legislature that
meets with our appreciation and that is. the
delegates to the Convention are to be elected
OF the white basis, which gives to Western
Virginia the control and We have good hopes
from the indications We have from that Sec
ton of the State. that secession in Virginia
will be defeated.
Tie debt of Virginia at this time IS over
IL millions Of dollars. The Legislature has
already appropriated one million more 10 arm
the State and by the time it has flushed its
appropriations, and tho Convention shall have
adjourned. it may swell the aggregate Of in
debtedness to S50OO0.OOO. The taxation is
now very opprcssive-itwill ,hen be ruinous
and people will sell their property and leave
the State, to seek u home where all they make
is not eaten up by oppressive taxation. Az
this grows out OF the insane rebellion of South
Carolina and tie misplaced sympathy Of Viz
siuia.
The Legislature has passed a resolution
appointing Ex-prcsiieut Tyler y commits
siuner to wait on the President to solicit for
hcarance toward the seceGiEg States aud
Judge John Robertson commissioner 20 5.
Carolina aud other seeding States, TO request
them to abstain from hostilties during the
pending proceedings.

FAITHFUL MINISTERS OF HEALTH I'm ex-

they have this drug, like soms others they

gent Of their own in the tropical regions Of
its growth. BE informs as that there are
many specifies Of this plant. but two Of which
are really valuable in n.edncine; the quail
6ss of these are also affected by the time OF
gathering, mode of curing, ETC., operations
which in that region Of unreliable workmen
imposes heavy labor upon him. One of
the inert varieties of Sarsapar.la grow, wild
IN our own forests; while several Others,
nearly worthless, abound in Central and
South America. The intelligent agent as
sured US that the virtue Of this drug had
never been told. and the reason Of the low
esteem in which many hold it is mainly due
to the importation OF such vuantilies Of the
worthless varieties. His accounts of his
trips to Honduras and his business excursions
along the Gulf of Duce and the lrivers Of
Motagua and Santiago and among tho ada
cent mountains were of intense interest,"
We can but commend and houor his en-
ployers for the faithfulness and energy with
which they execute their trust as ministers 10

this course is at least one of the reasons why
their medicines are held in such cxtraordiua-

What shall we do

No question has perplexed the people
of the Border Slave States more than
tho one which heads this article, De-
yotedly attached to the Union, having no
cause of quarrel with the general gov
ernment, but deeply sensible that some
of the free States have, in the passage
Of personal liberty bills, which Whether
designed so or not, have obstruc,ed
the enforcement of the fugitive Slave
law and thus done injustice to US and
the other slavehcIding States: now that
dsunion and rebellion are rife among
our brethren further South, our people
have been lee to enquire what they shall
do !? Shall we abide in tho Union, or
shall we make common cause with the
South =?
The Union has been to us a source of
;nestimable blessings. beneath its over.
shadowing influence we have been happy
safe aud prosperous. We have not been
opp. cSsed nor have our rights been ia.
ken from us or neglected and therefore
we have 10 just cause Of complalnt.-
Our brethren down South who have
wrought themselves into fearful phren-
w, do not complain OF any thing done
hy the Government and pr fer it as a
iu ,tifvins cause for the present hostile
t,i.ule they maintain toward the Fedc-
raI Union, but they tell us that their
grievances are OF long stan ling Mr..
Packer speaking of secession in the re-
cent convention held in Charleston said:
1T is no splsmIli; effort that has
come suddenly upon Us but it has been
gradually culnlua,ing for long series
Of years"
Mr.. Inglis said
"Most of US have had this subject IN
der consideration for the last twenty
years"
Mr.. Keitt said
at is nothing produced BY Mr.. Lin
coins election or the non-execution of
the Fugitive Slave Law. 1t is Il matter
which has been gathering head for thir-

are about to sunder our relations with
that section, 1.-THE North, ] ! trust forev-

The Federal laws laying taxes on the
neople of South Carolina have fallen this

They have also pronounced this ian

ing men declared that he would take
hold of the pillars that support this glo-
