cent invasion of Maryland we cite few extracts
from our contemporaries restricting our selections
to the Republican press. The tone of the Opposi-

that journals most addicted to the support of the

The annual invasion of Maryland which, next to the
weather. supplies the sensation" of this week. does not
excite any very disturbing apprehensons tor the safety of
Baltimore and Washington. The country has learned to
preserve degree of equanmity strangely unlike its
two years ago and more The fear receiving any heavy
blow from these ruptons has been removed by repeated
escapes there is general feeling that the business will
other raids have ended and that the chief point to
be looked after is to intercept the retreat If possible
And thus it happens that the leading emotion which this
incursicn exctes is of modification The couatry is
ashamed that at this stage of the should have
rebel force beating back Union General this side of
the Potomac-rebel marsuders burning houses stealing
horses aud carrying off supplies until panic is raised
which extends to the very capital of Pennsylvania and
perhaps than all far moral effect goes, rebel
cavalry destroying bridges and cutting telegraph wires
that great artera line of railway which connects Wash
Dgton with these States For the OF this
ing state of affairs must certainly hold the military
administration in degree responsible.
