with his life to prevent the passage of troops
| when he heard of the difficulty this morning at
fratt street, he Immediately went to the Mayors

| Governor OF the State, and learned something that
made him respect him.
He told them that he was at their service and

and go with the people of MARYLAND While MIR,
Mchane was speaking it was proposed to invite the
governor to appear and address the meeting

committee to wait upon the Governor. During

Messrs Marcus Duvall, of Prince Geo rge's county,
and Geo. M. Gill, of this city, made brief and ap-

to make speech. 1t was merely on private busi-
ness ness that be came to the city a few days ago, but
hndlng so much excitement he concluded to remain
and cooperate with the Mayor in the preservation
OF the peace; but did not intend to assume any of
toe prerogatives of that gentleman, nor to inter
teTe IN any improper manner with the municipal
affairs OF Baltimore.
He had had three conferences with the Mavor
and they had always agreed upon every point pre-
sented. He was Mary lander, and would sooner
have his right arm cut eff than raise it against
sister Southern State. He hoped that the Union
might be restored at future day and peace once
more reign over our once happy land. But if 9th
erwise, he submitted to the will of the people.

the crowd quietly dispersed to the various points
of interest and attraction throughout the city.
