The slow. the hcsitating, tho fearful, the con

4sf~o n fcar when Rcvcrdy johnson goes for
e..a5o,,s What fossil of antcdlluyian days,
;c once dug out of the mud, and put where
tnc euu can shine on his back, and the mir gets
10 his lungs OF stone, need refuse To breathe,
when Maryland casts of slavery as an old
cont full OF dirt and yermin, and consigns
it to the burial; while the voice of her
ancient Senator and great lawyer rings clear
and sonorous, for settling the bondmcn free!
Verify these days arc worth living in, even II
wear in war.
The course which things are taking in Ma
ryland Is enough to signalizc the days of this
question, If nothing else Of q wondrous
character were occurring. But great noun
taIns never stand single-thcy lit their heads
to the skies In groups. With freedom in Mary
land, no slave State will be left north Of the
capital, except little Delaware; and she will

unsupported
A question may, perhaps, occur to some,
how such an event rs the turning Of such
man rs Senator johnson ia to be accounted
for-how 60 stiff q conservative has been
mnde into what they call radical We see
nothing very remarkable In il. Such men as
Rcvcrdy johnson are not moved until cir
culnstances move. lie docs not strike until
he thinks the iron to be hot. While Mary
land is bent on adhcring 10 the institution,
what use, he asks, in trying to thwart her. l.
it not . wrong to waste effort where it only
strikes back to the injury of him who puts it
fortls This reasoning, right or wrong, Is
TINT OF such men. But the tide has changed,
Slavery las staked itself on the war; the war
is against I'll The thing was bad before !;
now 1t has put itself where it can be killed,
and safely buried; let MS up and doit
We doubt If the rebel cause has got hard
cr.blow since Vicassburg was taken, than it

step secured their subsequent escape comparatively
easy at least If they had not received the preliminary
aid which this brave woman gave them, they could
never have had the opportunity to effect that final es-
cape which they secured by their own courage and
DURANGO. Their first conductor. however. became
an object Of suspicion, and it was absolutely
necessary that she should quit Richmond and seek ref
ugo within the Union lines leaving behind her oil she
possessed We cannot give her name nor enter fur
thcr into the particulars of her case that would in

we have her papers. including letters from Col

her statement. She is anxious to secure employment
of some sort by which she livelihood ana hao
