An editorial article, which was published by
the Sun on Saturday last, opens with the follow
ing paragraph:
This State (Naryland) is in the Federal Union. It is
Therefore, beligerent party to the war between the
and foreign commerce of Baltimore is subject to ~ the
Incidents of the present unhappy contest 1t is there
FORE material to consider the maritime risks to which
vessels will be subjected from the war shns or nr
Vateers commissioned by the Confederate States"
The San has unintentionally fallen into a sim
gular, and what might possibly prove to our mar-
chants avery mischievous error 1t is true that
Maryland is still member of the Federal Union
and it may be also Observation-Disclosures is "a
'helligerent party to the war between the United
estates and the Confederate States >" Practically.
however, she has been expressly exempted from
all the perils which under ordinary circumstances
would menace her commerce. In the declaration
of war by the Confederate States an execution 10
distinctly made in favor of Maryland and certain
other specified States and Terrtories-ihe cIause
to that effect being in the following language;
exists between the Confederate States and the Cover
ment of the United States and the States and
thereof except the States Of Naryand North Carolina
Tennessee Kentucky Arkansas, Missouri and Delaware
and the Territories of New Mexico and the
Indian Territory south of Kansas; therefore, &c"
The SIN therefore is entirely wrong in supposing
that ''the coastwse and foreign commerce of
'of Maryland will be subject to all the incidents
''of the present unhappy contest" Her neutral
position is assured to her. and whatever may
happen to the ships Of the Northern States, her
vessels will be respected by the Southern priva-
teers. Her ships carrying her flag, may now ply
safely between the Northern ports, which the YES
sells of the latter will not long be able to do. We
may therefore profit some little by the tribuIa-
tions of our Northern brethren, unless they.
through jealousy or spite, may take some novel or
illegal means of interfering with us.
