Eg-It is claimed by some linger-

the recent election he carried his old
Congressional District. The vote is
very close, and official vote must be
awaited. The reported majorites are
Val, in Butler, l,0l5. Brough in
Preble $50; in Montgomery 81, Ac-
cording to this vote, Val. was beaten
in his old district two votes. So he

Intelligence from the Army of the

There had been no fighting since Fri
day, except skirmishing. The con-
test on Friday, was severe one, our
loss being thirty five hundred killed
wounded and prisoners. The enemy
was repulsed and his loss vas very
heavy. The two aamies were con
rrontin. each other on Monday, and
it was believed 4 general battle could
not be long postponed.

Governor Hicks.

That loyal paper, The Cecil Democrat. snccrs
at the appointment OF Governor Hicks to the
u. ). Senate, and tells of some great men
that have represented Maryland in hat body.
Now if this very learned editor will sum up
a the real services rendered to this State by
Pearce and company an will then reflect on
what would have been the condition Of Mary
lard to- day, If Gov. Hicks had listened to the
schemes Of traitors, and become their willing
instrument. he cannot, il he has The least
degree Of candor, fail to discover. that Gov
Hicks has higher claims on the gratitude OF
Mary than any living man, and will be
remembered when his predecessors are for
gotten. Does the sapirnt editor rccollcct his
party doctrine - that Maryland must go with
Virginia - And She would have gone with
her. and shared he fate, had not the raitorS
been held in check by the fnnncSS OF the
Governor. Look now at poor, wrc,chrd
Virginia, troddcn down by armies; fire and
sword haYe passed over her, leaving dcsoh.
ton. famine and suffering in their train, and
compare her tororn condition, with the peace
and happiness that reign within our borders,
and tell me what spirit anmacs the man,
that SCOTS at our dcycrcr. Can il be posi-
bic that any man among us, for the sake Of
mserat le loco-toCUism. could have rcioicrd
in the suffering and dcsolation that would
have reduced our people to the level of
Virginia If there be such one. so lost to
all the finer feelings Of humanity, then am
not surprised that there is one who when
occasion offers, will vent his spleen on Coy.
Hicks but it will be perfectly harmless, and
the old Roman Will pursue the even tenor Of
his way.
1t is doctrine Of high authority, that he
who is faithful over little, shall be ruler
over much. Gov. Hicks deserves the high
which hi. ba hsan ,1n tod nd
he has the confidence not only Of the people
of Maryland, but Of loyal men every where,
and will not disgrace Maryland, as she has
been disgraced by her Senators going in
direct opposition to the expressed will Of her
people. Il.

The recent Morgan raid into Kentucky
seems to have been but rush to cover other
important advances OF the rebels, and to con-
ceal the real weakness OF their force left in
vicinity of East Tepnessee--a ruse which was
quickly discovered, and has now resulted IN ii
great advantage to the Union aims. Not a
guerrilla is left in the State. the pursuit of
Morgan has been spirited, although no battle
has been fought since he left the vicinity of
Springfield. Morgan has been compelled, in
the rapidly Of his flight. to abandon his
wagons, caissons, and some Of his prisoners
The ffty-six gucrril!as who were captured in
the vicinity Of Danville were members of
Morgan's band, ana are now in prison at

under Gen. MagtLder. Our land forces were

fight took place. Oar loss was estimated at
100 to 100 killed and 200 taken prisoners, the
navy suffering most. II was thought the

An Extra Session Of Tao Legislature

The unexpected events of the last few
years have rendered change in our State
Constitution highly desirable, if not impcr-
alivcly necessary: and as that instrument
makes it the duty Of the Legislature. at lis
first session Immediately succeeding the
returns OF every census of the United States,
to pass IA law for asccrtaining at the next
general election Of Delegates the sense of
the people iii regard to calling Il convention
for altering the Constitution. it seems to us
that the failure Of our last LEGISLATURE to
perform this duty stands prominent among
he numerous sins Of that weak knccd
assembly. All the reasons we have ever
heard advanced by any of the members
thereof for their refusal to favor such q law
were Of the most futile and illogical kind
and unworthy to be advanced by men who
had any faith in the justice Of our cause
the cause Of Righteousness AMI Truth and
we trust the Governor will not permit us to
reach anothc: general election of DELEGATES.
without his having convened the Legislature
and given them an opportunity to pass the
requisite law, and pcrform-even at this
late day-their duty to themselves and to
the loyal men of the State.
If the Constitution needs changing. and
every loyal citizen of Maryla must admit
that it does, why should we wait for n more
convenient season? What is to be gained
by delay? When will we be in better con-
dition than at present to make the desired
change? Why should we remain longer
clogged and fcttered by Constitution that
impcdes our progress and growth? The
policy of waiting for something to turn
up" that is recommended by timid, time
serving politicians, and the milk and water
men who wish to act as leaders Of the PEG
pie, is the same old down at-the heel, do
nothing policy that has so long disgraccd,
and well nigh ruined Maryland. Are We
never to rise superior to this miserable,
short, sighted policy? Are we never to
arrive at that happy period in our history as
a State, when We can elect to Office men
with enlarged and liberal views, who can
5cgislate for the good of the people Of the

may US well make up our minds first as last

developed by the Rebellion. Willingly or
Unwilingly We will be forced EDWARDS. and
it is certainly wiser to keep pace with the
progress Of the advancing tide than to hang
back. only to be ovcr-foodcd and rolled
forward, bruised and bleeding.
If there was nothing for the Legislature
