JEFF DAVIS SELF-CoNyIoTED.-I would
not be difficult to convic; all the leaders Of
the rebellion out of their own mouths, by
quoting the language used by them when they
were professedly loyal citizens of the United
States. The following passage from a speech
Of jeff Davis, made in the United States Sem
ate in 1898, upsets the whole theory of seces-
sion, upon which he has staked his whole for
tune and life -

The Circuit Court.

Owing to the interruption of the commu-
nication between this place and Hagerstown,
Judge Welsel, the newly elected judge, did
not reach Cumberland until Friday last, the
Court in the mean time having been adj
iourned by the Clerk from day to day. On
Saturday morning, at 10 o'clock, the Judge
appeared upon the bench. lie opened the
business of the Court by delivering to the
members of the bar very felicltous and
appropriate address, explaining the cause. Of
his detention from Cumberland, and COM
mentina upon the relative and respective
duties Of the Court and Bar to each other,
promising that his part in uphoidlcg and
rindicating the majesty Of the law should be
faithfully performed, and at the same time
admopishiug the members Of the bar OF their
duties and responsibilities in his sacred trust
The dockets were called and judgments IN
plain cases taken. Thus far no jury trials
have been had, and from present appearances
very little business will be transacted. The
absence Of several leading members Of Tho
bar. in connection with other circumstances
will postpone many cases to the April term.
We but give expression to undivided pup
lie opinion, when we say that Judge We'se
fully comes up to the expectations OF hi
most sanguiuc friends. His manner upol
the bench is at once digniGed and impres
sive. lie dispatches business with prompt
ness energy and decision.

Governor BradfOrd's Inaugural.

The inaugural address Of Governor Brad
ford, which we publish to-day, is mastery
exposition of the condition Of onr public
affairs and triumphant vindication OF the
loyalty Of Maryland. This document WI
be read with proud satisfaction by all those
WHO gave their support to Governor Brad
ford in the last State election. II should be
carefully perused and grave'y pondered by
those misguided men in our midst who have
been guilty of the folly and crime OF giving
sympathy and aid to the rebellion OF the
Southern States. The following paragraph,
it will be seen, has especial applicability to
the rebel clique in this city, who secretly
sloat over every reverse Of the National
cause, and who are inviting upon their own
Leads that retributon which their pcrtldious
conduct justly merits:-
Notwithstanding the undoubted loyalty OF
81 vast majority of our people, there IS confess,
edly in our midst an active, intelligent ana
interruptions Secession element, ready ana
anxious, on the first opportunity, TO lend
helpipg hand to those now threatening us
with invasion. SO inveterate is tins determl,
nation so intense the hostility TO tue Nauonal
Government, that men under its lnhuence'
whether the invasion is threatened from be-
yond the Potomac Or from the other side CT
the Atlantic, hardly affect to conceal the de-
light which the prospect affords them. with
n reasonable temper CT this fragrant character,
therefore, in our midst, you will readily per-
ceive the essential importance, at such time
as this, of arresting as far as possible its power
for mischief. All experience has proved that
forcible resistance TO established authority
whether In the shape of tumnltuous moo or
m organized rebellion, TO be successfully re-
sisted must be promptly and vigorously met,
and that TO daily with il at NIL Is a dangerous
experiment"
The bombastc promise Of the traitorous
Governor of Virginia, to extend protection
to the rebels in Maryland, and to transfer
the fighting line" of the insurrectienlsts
from the Potomac to the Susquehanna is
neatly disposed Of in this address, and the
ridiculous and impertnent meddlesomeness
of the rebel Letcher is properly rebuked'
Pie recommendations of the Governor for
prompt legislative action in regard to the
orSanl2allon OF the Dtdlo hiH''''' "'" Wv "
PRODUCTION of test oath as qualification Tor
public Office or for any privilege accorded by
the State government, are cmincntly wise.
Equally sagacous is tho suggestion that IL
cences shall be granted to such business men
only as attest their loyalty by subscribing to
an oath Of allegiance.
Governor Bradford has made most ex-
cellent beginning. If the Legislature shall
sustain him in his measures Of reform, much
of the injury suffered from previous neglect
and positively criminal legislation will DC
speedily repaired. The people Of Maryland
may congratulate themselves that they have
now both an able and loyal Governor and
Legislature, who know the right and will mol
fear to do it.

THE GREAT REBELLION
Important from Kentucky.

DISBANDMENT OF THE REBELS.
CINCINNATI, Dec. 1.-THE Gazette
of this city, has the following from the
editor of the late Sandy Hook Valley
Advocate, now one of ths proprietors OF
the Louisville Democrat, who arrived
hero from Sandy Valley yesterday. We
learn that the second rebel invasion of
Eastern Kentucky has ended in dis
graceful row.
On Monday last, Col. Garfelds force,
including the 42d Ohio Regiment, the
10th Kentucky Regiment. and 1900
cavalry, had proceeded up the Big Sandy
TO Plainesville, within seven miles Of
the rebel camp, when they were met BY
a flag of truce from Humphrey Marshall,
asking if matters could not be arranged
without fight.
Colonel Garfield inm ediately replied
that he could offer no arrangement, and
that they (the rebels) must either fight
or surrender uAcoDditionally.
Humphrey Marshall then addressed
his men, telling them that they had the
alternative Of surrcndering or disband-
ing, and giving them the choice.
They Immediately collected and set
FIRE TO all their wagons, tents, and camp
cquippage, and then each man was per-
mittcd to take care Of himself, the whole
force scattering in confusion.
The rebels made no attempt to save
anything except their cannon, WHICH
they hauled off,
Colonel Garfield has dispatched his
cavalry in pursuit, and they expect to
capture the guns, and perhaps pick up
many of the flying rebels
The rebels in North Eastern Ken
lucky, from the high estimate in which
Humphrey Marshall's military abilities
were held, had strong hopes of success
under his leadership. A sufficient Fe-
deral force will be left in that region to
secure its peace and safety.

Governor of Virginia, already referred to, he
declares to the Legislature that their "pos-
session of Maryland is indispensable, and
that thousands will welcome them to the
State and flock to the standard of the South
ern Confedcracy." ...
Whilst in kentucky that gallant State
always united to us by an apparent identity
of political principles and attachments, but
never so endearcd to us as at present-a few
men collected in an extreme corner OF 'ne
State, in defiance Of a Union majority largely
exceeding our own, have inausurated what
they call a Provisional Government, as pre-
lminary TO the solemn mockery of admitting
her into the same apocryphal Conederacy.
These facts admonish us that no precautions
| for the future should be neglected because OF
any apparent security at present.
Notwithstanding the undoubted loyalty OIL
a vast majority Of our people, there is con
| fessedy in our midst an active, lnteiIiseh
and inscriptions Secession element, ready
and anxious, on the first opportunity, to iene
a helping hand to those now threatening VI
with invasion. So inveterate is this determi
nation 80 intense this hostility to the Ma

With reasonable temper OF this fagran
character, therefore, in our midst, you vii
readily perceive the essential Importance,
such a time as this, of afresting as far a
possible its power for mischief. All expert
ence has proved that forcible resistance

of a tumultuous mob or an organized rebel
