The Baltimore MayOraIty.

We learn from Baltimore that the contest
there is very warm as to who shall be Mayor
The candidates are Chapman, the present
Mayor, and Mr. Archibald Stirling, Jr. We
know little about Mr. Chapman, but that lit
tie is not at all to his credit. or to the credit
of the city which he has governed for two
years past. What Baltimore now needs is
that its Chief Magistrate should be gentle
man OF character, of unsullied reputation and
thorough integrity. Such an one we know
Archibald Stirling to be. His administration
of the office of State Attorney was the first
step which Baltimore took on the road to
responsibility as it emerged from the dark
ness and filth of Judge Stump's criminal
rourt. He has filled with equal credit to
himself and the city the positions of member
of the House of Delegates, where he was
chairman of the Ways and Means; Senator
where he headed the Finance committee, and
member of the Constitutional Convention, in
which he was the acknowledged leader of
the Union men. Well known as a man of
great ability, spotless integrity and christian
character, added to pleasing and agreeable
manners, his election will do more to give
Baltimore her true position among the great
and enlightened cities of the nation, than
any other thing which could happen. And
it is because, with all true Marylanders, we
feel deep interest in our commercial metro
polls that we write this article.
We learn that Chapman is running on the
strength of being warm supporter of Mr.
Lincoln. The people uf Baltimore surely
do not forget that Mr. Stirling was the man
bold enough last Winter to first introduce
into the Senate a resolution approving of
Mr.. Lincoln and nominating him for re- cleo
ton. The first step in Maryland, for Mr.
Lincoln, was taken by Archibald Stirling.
