TIE DELAWARE (TREAsoNABLE) REsoIr-
.TIoNs IN TIE Missouri LEGIsLArrRE-The
patriotism Of the Legislature of the great
Stare State OfMissouri is in striking contrast
with that Of the Delaware Legislature, as
will be seen from the following dispatch
from the Capital of that patriotic State
JEFFERSON CRY, Feb. 24.-Gov. Gamble
sent to the House, to-day, accommodation,
accompanying certain resolution recently
adopted by the Legislature of Delaware,
asking Missouri to send delegates to a Ma
tlonal Convention, for the purpose of effect
ing an armisticc, etc. The Governors mes
sage treated the subject in a statemanlike
manner, and denounced the resolutions,
recommending that they be passed over in
silence.
Aspirited discussion ensued. The reso-
iutions received most unmerciful handling
from the members They were denouced
as false in history, sedtions, in spirit, trea-
Sonablc in language, and several resolutions
were offered by different members declaring,
in substance, that the war is Just and right,
and should be prosecuted by every means
within the resources of the loyal States, to
the last man and the last dollar, until the
traitors submit Internationally to the au-
thority OF the Government of the United
States and the principles Of freedom be sus-
tanned
That we will neither consent or submit to
peace. without the entire submission of the
traitors, nor to any armistice without sub
jugation, nor to any interference by foreign
countries and also thanking Gov Gamble
for the loyal patriotic views expressed in
his Message approving the act Of Col Gil
bert in dispensing the recent rebel conven-
ton in Kentucky. The resolutions were
finally passed over informally.

MISCELLAN ECU S.
Our Maryland.

The position Of the Commonwealth OF
Miryland is ut this time rs noble as that of
auy other loyal, State, and it cannot but have
weight in bringing the Union through its
struggle with t.ratricidal treason. The inSti-
tuition of slavery having, from the date of
the bonlbarlment Of Sumter, set itself up
against the Union, Maryland is preparing to
set its loyal feet upon slavery. The APP
praisement of the property Of the late Charles
Carroll shows that the one hundred and
thirty negroes belonging to that estate are
valued at only So each, that being higher
than any actual bid which could be obtained
for them. Yet in spite of this immense
movement towards the extinction of the
curse of bondage, Maryland sets an example
of firm loyalty which puts our more North
ern squeamisnness to shame. While i'll
New York and New Jersey the traitor Val
landigham and other diSloyalistS are allowed
to taint the air with,their treason while III
philadelphia secession harangues are unre-
buked by an indignane populace, in Balti-
more Nallandigham has not dared to utter
one craven worttof disloyalty: The temper
Of the loyal MrYalElers will not stand his
foul falsehoold, and his bridge burning
friends are in so .(leSpicable minority that
they dared not invite him to defy public
opinion In Baltimore the American flag
is by military authority floating over rebel
halls and churches yet a rebel Journal in
Philadelphia denounces' the placing of the
flag Tin those positions as an g outrage" while
the press of Baltimore mainly applauds the
act. In Maryland a rebel is q rebel, and
thin and hypOcritical pretexts about " the
Constitution" find no man fool enough to
be deceived by them. In. more Northern
States bowling secessionists unblushingly
avow rebel sentiments, and yet the authori-
ties do not try, convict and hang them
nor are scoundrels even impartially sentenced
to obliquy at the bar of public opinion.
1t would-be a good thing to import lit
tie of the moral courage of Maryland into
latitudes further North and East. a few
examples OF open condemnation of treason
are most lmnentably needcd;yet we see no
| signs Of such truly bold and patriotic action
There are men walking our streets to-day
whom General Washington or Andrew
Jackson wonld have had tried. and brought
to a teIons dcgth eighteen months ago, had
they been our rulers during the present era
The ordinary operations of courts go on a,
usual in the loyal States, and there is but
one law which appears to be d dead letter
the enactment against treason! Surely i
the {" copperheads' are as dangerous as true
men feel that they. are, they should be

made to feel what felons they are. Perhap

Confidence in the Future.

All accounts represent the feeling at
W ashlngtOn, both upon the part Of the
Government and among all the supporters
of the war, to he buoyant and confident. 1t
IS regarded As almost certain that we are
about to enter upon u path OF splendid sue
c"Sses, which will settle the speedy fate of
the rebellion. The prevalence of such feel
ing at the n4jional Capital is an excellent
sign. Certainty nowhere else iss there so
good knowledge of our own resources
and preparations, and of the present condi-
ton and means of the rebels. If we are to
look for correct forecast anywhere, it
should certainly be at the national head
quarters. a great deal Of the depression
which has existed in New York and else
where through the North, has rested upon
no defEite data whatever Its foundation
has been mere discomfort with some par
tlcllur policy Of the Government, or With
the treatment Of some particular General,
rather than any substantial facts bearing
upon the vital elements of the war. -
But 1t may be freely allowed that the
progress of the war in our favor has not
realized the just expectations generally
cherished six or" eight months ago. Yet,
this is no good reason for the present de-
spondcncy: nor would it be were our
checks far more serious than they actuully
have been. We never had right to pre-
sumo that we should be excepted from the
varying fortunes which are incident to all
wars. All history, from that of the Jewish
people down, demonstrates that war, by its
alternating disasters and successes, is IIeav-
ems chosen discipline to fit nations for the
noblest tasks Of peace but it is marvellous
how constant has been the experience ofthe
Anglo-Saxon race that the side which is
worst batfled in. the beginning, is the side
which triumphs most gloriopsy inthe end
In not a single instance during the last
hundred years has this rule varied.-N.s I,

REBEL. BAIBARITIEs IN TExAs.-Such evil

their relief "They are KNOWN" it say

A Rebel Cry Of Distress.

CT6akcrs and coppcrhcads are referred to
an article ia the Rich hMond Enppirr, entitled
9 The Third Stage of the War" 1t is a
confession of the desperate condition Of the
rebels, and the great advantages gained by
the Federal Government, which is in strik-
ing contrast with the abuse of the govern
ment by its enemies and halt-friends at the
North. President Lincoln could have no
better vindication than this cry of alarm
from a leading organ of the rebel Confeder-
acy. 1t cOnfesses that they are hemmed in
on every quarter that. they have lost much
valuable territory that Kentucky, most of
Tennessee, great part Of Virginia, New
Orleans, Norfolk, and other important dis
tricts and towns are lost that Vicksburg,
Mobile, Savannah and Charleston are in
great danger that the blockade is complete
and effective that the enemy is "omni-
present" and isshutting up every river and
planting his guns on every strong place" "
There are no. signs of exhaustion in the
Government ofthe Union Its flag is flying
g all around the border and in the very
heart OF, the ,ConfederacY." Let us all try
to contemplate the. war in the lightin which
it is placed by this rebel organ. 1t is the
true light, as we will discover more plainly
as the spring advances and the armies and
fleets of the Union carry on the great work
that is just about to begin fairly,
