The Exodus Going On.

Our paper to-day contains the adver-
tisement of a respectable and wealthy
gentleman who came among US about 8
wears ago and invested large amount
of money in our county, where he no
doubt expected to end his days in peace
and quietness, but such has been the po-
liticsl rancour and insane policy OF the
party in power, that he is absolutely
driven away, as he has beeu deprived of
his political rights and must feel that
there is no longer any security for per
son or property where the civil rights OF
the citizen are disregarded. Having dis
posed Of his fine City property. the gen
tleman now offers for sale his personal
property. The exodus is still going on
and if the present insane and prOscrip-
I've policy Of the party in power is per-
sisted in, there will doubtless be many
others transferring themselves and their
wealth to some other locality where the
rights Of person and property are res
pected. -Nedsrick, Md. Union.
Our friend, Cole, seems to be unusual
ly exercised about the "exodus" from
the city and County of Frederick. Such
men who complain Of being deprived OF
their political rights" under the present
Administration, and make it cause for
removal, had better take a step across the
line, and pitch their tents in the domin-
ions Of JEFF, Davis, where, e,perphaps, they
would better enjoy their freedom, and
would certainly breathe easier, especially,
rs they could anathematize the Govern,
ment to their hearts content without the
fear Of being molested.
We can hardly think that any one, is
absolutely driven away" by the insane
policy of the administration, for our faith
in "Old Abe's" honesty and integrity is
so strong, as to lead us to believe that he
would rather mitigate the burdens that a
people bear. living upon the border, where
civil war is raging, then add to them
But, then, as sequence, he has right
to expect from them an earnest and q
hearty support Of one and all the meas
ures hs in his wisdom; and from his
knowledge Of the state of the war, may
deem best to protect the people in the
enjoyment Of their liberties, and to thwsrt
the movements OF the scoundrels and
cut-throats who, with the spirit Of fends
incarnate. are endeavoring to destroy the
Republic; and when men or women who
have enjoyed the blessing Of free institu-
tions for years, and over whom the shield
OF that Government is thrown in the hour
ofciyil strife. so far forget their allegience
as to sympathiss with the enemy who is
thrsatning its life; and by covert or overt
acts, give aid aud comfort to him, they
should not complain Of "proscriphss or
insane policy" OF the administration, if
they are arrested and summarilly dealt
with, Those half-hearted patriots would,
if in their power, "f~oscribs" the Govern
msnt--they would cripple her energies
they would, in order to carry out their
plans, triumph over the destruction of
the temple Of American liberty, and with
as much east as ever Nero 6ddled
whilst Rome was burlington in a glad
chorus of rejoicing with rebels, whilst
engaged in tearing down and trampling
under their feet everything dear to our
national pride and glory.
AS aloyal son of old Marylsnd--one
who has ever been justly proud of the
heroic deeds of the old Maryland Line;
and who has precious heritage in its i'm
mortalized acts; We rejoice in the proud
stand she has taken on the side of the
Government, and glory in the fact, that
the blood of her sous, has mingled with
that Of the sons Of her sister States in
protecting the old flag from the assaults
offered her by iugrste children. We are
glad that she has stood up for the Gov
ernment, and in her defence Of what we
deemed the right has wiped out forever
the only stain upon her fair escutcheon,
and which is the cause Of this accursed
rebellion-Slavery.
And we rather incline to the opinion
that Maryland Frsel Maryland Loyall
Maryland true to the Government, is what
ails the gentlemen who are complaining
Of prescription" and who howl on &C
count Of "5sin9 deprived Of their political
rights" and hence, the EXODUS"
complained of by our faiend. Cole. II
