Not Consistent.

The following item, published in Baltimore
paper called the South, in 1861, is beingGre
published BY the Union papers of Maryland to
show some of the loyal ~ men ofthat State,
who are so much opposed to the registry law,
how they stood: ~
" hrated to Leave.-During the past three
days persons have been visiting the places of
business of several Northern merchants, who
have been conspicuous in hostility to the South
ern cause, and whose absence was deemed
preferable to their presence, to urge them to
seek safety in flight These parties make their
interviews very brief-simply submitting to
the Inspection OF the obnoxious parties man
utacture Of hemp, and quietly assuring them
that If they are to be found in the city within
specified time, cne end of the rope will be
applied to their necks and the other to lamp
post, Acting upon this hint, several Union
Shne&ers have mysteriOusly disappeared, to
the expressed astOnishment of their families. -
The paper publishing this item was suppress
ed tpally-after Baltimore was taken posses
sion of by the Union troops The friends of
this and all other dislOyal sheets throughout the
country soon raised the cry of " freedom of
speech, and with what consistency this ex-
tract shows. Men every where courted arrest
by denOuncing the Government, for the sake
of political capital. Persons subjecting them
selves to arrest by their reasonable acts and
conversation, Immediately threw themselves be-
hind the Democratic party for defence, and il
arrested claimed it was on account of theil
political sentiments; 50 it was necessary to
take the Democrat to obtain the traitor. A
Maryland exchange, the Citizen, in speaking
of the present condition of things, says:
The men who, in the streets of Centrcville,
brandishcd their bowie knives and revolvers,
and dared any man to acknowledge himself a
Unlonlst, threatening to cut his heart out, .
were a" never Secessionists; )" they never de-
sired to see the Union dissolved" they only
believed the war would not restDre the
Unlonj they were opposed to some mea-
sures OF the Administration in short they
were " Democrats. "
These men, unfortunately for them, have
been kept in remembrance, especially by the
registry officers. The Registration Law of that
State is denounced with as much bitterness a,
the Unonists were at the breaking out of the
war. The Democratic party throughout the
country plead for them as injured innocents
This cannot be wondered at. The law is cal
oulated to weaken the strength of that party
throughout the State, and hence the abuse 4
receives and the efforts about to be made To
upset 1t. Every traitor disfranchised bv it.

BILIOUS. We learn that the fever and apue
and other bilious complaints are prevailing in
this section and throughout the country to =
greater extent than for number of years past
The sickness is mostly in the rural districts in
this locality, the town being comparatively
healthy. In the lower part of New Castle co,
sickness is very prevalent SO far the cases
are light and easily "subiugated' by ouinine.
etc, but the slightest imprudence will as easily
stir up the bile again.
W Whlle upon the subject, we see that the
leading journals of the large cities are urging
the most stringent health regulations upon their
municipal authorities, in view of the fact that
the cholera, which is now raging in some narts
OF Europe, is tending westward in its course
The French and English journals are manifest
ing considerable alarm lest it should reach their
respective localities. We do not know wbctb.
er there is any cause for alarm or not. but #
would be very appropriate to take the "ounce
