to Enility an act of Congress passed in ac-
cordance with the Constitution of the United
States and intended to give effect to one of
its Planest provisions: the proper fufllmcnt
of which is their manifest duty and our I'M
doubted right; and whilst we deprecate and
condemn the intermeddling spirit manifested
by them with our local ana domestic con-
Germs, from which so much and so serious
mischief has resulted. we vet do not. and
cannot, find remedy for these evils and
grievances in disuuon and the separation of
States now united and which, We soiemnly
believe should remain so.
ReSofred, 3d. That we call upon our breh-
ern of the North in the solemn voice of warm
ing to do their duty by ccrsing to war upon orr
rights and institutions, and to remove from
their Statute Books, unconstitutional laws
passed in the heat and fury Of political tx.
citcment: which course on their part is
necessary to tkcir honor and integrity as
menhers of the same political family with
ourselves. and which the sim plest justice to
us imperatively demands.
Resoired, All, That the agitation of the
question OF Slavery ty Congress is, and has
been, productive only Of mischief and should
be discountenanced by every lover of his
country. This question is one for each State
to determine for itself by its own citizens :
and this same principle, so just and proper
applied to the territories will, we fully be-
lleve, insure peace, promote tranquility. and
cement more strongly the Union Of the States.
Resolved 5h. That the action of South
Carolina and other States Of the extreme
South, in prccipitating upon the country evils
Of such fearful magnitude as now affiict us,
meets with our unqualified condemnation.
Rcsolvcd, 9Th, That we endorse and ap.
prove the course of Governor Hicks in re-
fusing to convene the Legislature in Extra
Session. and for his tirmness in this behalf
we tender to him our thanks.
Resolrcd TLt. That We are una lcrably and
firmly attached to the Union Of the States, and
look upon secession or disllninn as the great
est evil that can bcfull us asa people our
rights we Solelnnly declare hat we will main
tain IN the Union, and resist by every means
at our command, any and all attempts come
from what quarter they may, to deprive us of
our birthrlght rs citizens of the United Safes.
The Union formed by our folciathers, whose
wisdom and patriotism we have rot ceased
to admire, 1t is our interest and our solemn
duty to uphold as a priceless blessing to US,
and to transmit 1t to our posterity IN all its
fulness and vigor
Resolred Sh, That we request the proc eed.

UNION MEETING IN THE 5TI DIS
TRICT, CECIL COUNTY.

Alta meeting of the citizens of Elk Neck
in the 5th Election District of Cecil county,
Maryland, held in pursuance of public notice,
| to take into consideration the perilous con-
dition of our country, and composed of per-
sons without respect to party, John A. Will
son, ESQ, was called to preside, and John +.
Alexander to act MS Secretary.
On motion OF VIM. w. Scott, ESQ.,, Com
mittee was appointed to report resolutions
for the action of the meeting, which resulted
iD the unanimous adoption of the following
preamble and resolutions.
Whcreas, A crisis has arrived in the his.
tory of our beloved country, occasioned by
the Vaccinations and wickcdness of evil men
who, bent some upon the acquisition, and
others upon the retention of power, have not
hesitatcd to resort to the baseSt means to
accomplish their purpose, and have brought
our country to the very verge of ruin. To
this end sectional parties have been formed
the one, in the North. led on by fanatics who
have not scrupled to aSsail the dearest rights
of their brethren of the South the other, in
the South, formed in a spirit OF retaliation
and ready in an unjust spirit to condemn the
innocent to the same level with the guilty.
and who in their frenzy are ready to destroy
our beloved Union of States under which we
have teeu blest and prospered as no nation
either in anciant or modern history has ever
been. And
Whereas. In the extreme peril which now
menaces US. it is meet and highly proper that
the people in every Part of our country should
assemble and express to our rulers and TO the
world the sentiments with which we are I'LL
ed, therefore
Resolved. LIST, That we are opposed to Sec
tionaf parties whether in the North or in the
South, as tending to ALLEVIATE the feelings Of
our brethren of one section from those OF
another, and as having within themselves the
germs Of the greatest evils which can atilict q
free people.
Resolped, I'd, That whilst we deprecate the
course Of the people of several of the North.
ern States in denying to us our just and Con-
stitutional rights, and denounce their course
in permitting to be passed. and to remain
! upon their statute books, cnactmeMs Designed

The Voice Of Cecil.

The proceedings of the Elk Neck and Port
Deposit Union Meetings, as published in The
Wing to day, indicate healthy state of feel.
ing in this county upon the great questions
agitating the public mind. The strong ard
uncquvocal Union resolutions adopted at
both meetings breath the true spirit, and
truthful.y reflect the sentiments of nineteen
twcntieths of the people Of this county.
We Lave few men among us, undoubted-
ly, who are disposed to make their adherence
to the Union depend rpoH certain cont,n-
gencies; who would be willing to disrupt the
Union as n means of securing constitutional
rights claimed to exist under, and by ri,tue of
the constitution which ted that Union
They are for the Union-!f; and they think,
with the Baltimore Sun. that /" it is our duty
to exact from the North by the force of cir
cumstances,' that is, by threats OF secession
our constitutional rights. Such are the
men who, throughout the State. are moving
heaven and earth, and Judging from the
spirit that seems to animate some of them in
their outrageous attacks upon Gov Hicks
a warmer region than either, in order to bring
about, as the best means of accomplishing
their tratorous purposes, an Extra Session OF
that patriotic and bipartisan body, yclept the
Legisl ature Of Maryland, which did the State
such excellent service in Annapolis last
| winter.
| Such, how ever, are not the men who par
| ticipated in the adoption of the Elk Neck and
Port Deposit resolves. They have incorpor-
atcd no ifs, ands, or butts in the resolutions
expressive Of their attachment to. and
intention to abile in the Union of these
States as the palladium Of their rights as well
as of their liberties, and that is just where
and why these Union resolves are right foi
they assume, what every honest man in the
State must admit, and what, we think, is
being made evident as the sentiment Of tho
State, that, not only is there nc
security for Maryland. in any Of her great
and leading interests. except as an integral
portion of an anbroken Union, bat that
every wrong Of which she or her Southern
sisters can justly complain, can be redressed
in the Union, but would be thousand fold
increased ont of it. whether as member Of a
Southern or Central Confederaccy.
