PROCLAMATION OF THE MAYOR.
Mayors OFFICE, !
April 18th, 1861.
| heartily concur in the determination OF the
Governor 10 preserve the peace and maintain in
violate the honor and integrity of Mary land as set
forth in the above proclamation, and will earnestly
cooperate with his efforts to maintain peace and
order in the city of Baltimore.
And cannot withhold my expression of satsrac
ton at his resolution that no troops shall be
sent from Maryland to the soil of any other State.
The great questions at issue must, in the last resort
be settled by the people of the City and State for
themselves at the baot-box, and an opportunity
for free expression of their opinions will speedily
be afforded at the approaching Congressional cleo
tion.
If the counsels of the Governor shall be Needed
may rest secure in the confidence that the storm
of civil war which now threatens the country will
at least pass our beloved State and leave it
unframed, but if they shall be disregarded fear
full and atrcidal strife may at once burst forth in
our midst.
Under such circumstances, can any good citizen
doubt for a moment the course which duty and
honor alike require him to pursue2

To the PsCple # Maryland:
The unfortunate state Of affairs now existing in
the country has greatly excited the people of
Maryland.
In consequence of our peculiar position, it is not
to be expected that the people of the State can unau
mously agree upon the best mode of preserving the
honor and integrity of the State, and of maintain
ing within her limits that peace so earnestly de-
sired by all good citizens.
The emergency is great. The consequences of a
rash step will be fearful It is the imperative duty
OF every true son of Maryland to do all that can
tend to arrest the threatened evil | therefore
counsel the people, in all earnestness, to withhold
their hands from whatever may tend to precipitate
us into the gulf of discord and ruin gaping to re-
ceive us.
counsel the people to abstain from all heated
controversy upon the subject; to avoid all things
that tend to elimination and reorimnatioD; to be-
lieve that the origin of evil dag may well be
forgotten now by every patriot, in the earnest de-
sire to avert from us its fruit.
All powers vested in the Governor of the State
will be strenuously exerted to preserve the peace
and maintain inviolate the honor and integrity OF
Maryland.
call upon the people to obey the laws, and to
aid the constituted authorities in their endeavors
to preserve the fair fame of our State untarnshed
L assure the people that troops will be sent
from Maryland unless it may be for the defence Of
the National Capital
1t is my intention in the future, as it has beer
my endeavor in the past, to preserve the people Of
Maryland from civil war; and Invoke tha assist
ance of every true and loyal citizen to aid me tc
this end.
The people of this State will, in short time
have the opportunity afforded them, in a specia
election for Members of Congress of the the United
States, to express their devotion to the Union OF
their desire to see it broken up.
