Near Frederichtown, Sept 8, 1869.
To tie People Of Aarfand: u ~
It 10 right that you should know the purpose
that has brought the Army under my command
within the limits Of your State, so faf @ that
purpose concerns yourselves. The people Of the
Confederate States have long watched With the
deepest sympathy the wrongs and outrages that
have been inflicted upon the citizens of com
monwesIth allied to the States of the South BY
ties and reduced to the condition of conquered
province under tho pretenoe of supporting the
constitution but in violation Of it's most valued
provision and your citizens have been arrested
and imprisoned upon no charge and contrary to
ell forms of Law. A faithful aud manly protest
against this outrage made BY . venerable and H.
lustrious Aarylander to whom in better days no
citizen appealed for right in vain was treated
with scorn and contempt. ass .ga 5
The government Of your chief city has been
usurpe0 by armed strangers. Your Legislature
has been dissolved BY the unlawful arrest of its
members; freedom of the press and epeech has
been suppressed; words have been declared of.
lenses BY an arbitrary decree of tn Federal
Executive, and citisens ordered to be tried by
military commissioners for what they nav dare
to speak. Believing that the peopis Of Nsrv-
land possess spirit too lofty to submit to such
. Government the people Of the South nave
long wished to aid them in throwing OF thia
foreign yoke, 70 enable you again 10 epioy the
inalienable rights Of freemen and restore the
independence and sovereignty Of your STATE. J
In obedience to this wish our..army has come
amongst you, and 10. preparing to assist you
with the power Of its arms in regaininp the
rights of which you have been 30 .uDjustly -des-
poiled. This, citisele of MARYLAND, il onr mis-
sion. So far - you are concerned, nd restraint
upon your free will 10 intended. nor intimidation
will be allowed. Within the linits of this ar
my, at least, once more AsrylaDderslwill enjoy
their ancient freedom Of thought and speech-
We know no enemy among you, and will protect
all of you in every opiaion. Il ID for you 70 de-
eide your destiny freely and without restraint
This army will respect your choice, whatever I
may be, and the Southern people VIII rejoice 4
welcome you to your national position among
them. They will welcome you when you com,
