The political campaign 10 Maryland Was open
ed last night with grand Democratic mass
meeting 10 Monument Square. 1t is estimated
that fully 10000 persons participated, AID the
utmost enthusiasm and harmony prevailed. The
speakers were the Hon. Reverdy Johnson (who
presided,) Hon. John Lee Carroll, Senator
Bayard, Of Delaware. J. V. L. FlDdIay, ESQ.,,
and the Hon. T. G. Latrobe. The Sun says
The meeting was 10 every way grea, demon
stratioo, whether measured by the masses OF
people present, by the enthusiam, or by the
souodness Of the principles of civil and reIigi-
Gus liberty and other fundamentals of good
government expressed by the speakers" The
American, (Republlcan,) says: the meeting
was immense in point of numbers, and by
means of the usual expedients, the assemblage
was wrought up to high pitch of enthusiasm. -
The Gazette says 'Ihe campaign was opened
suspiciousy and goriously. No grander de-
monstratlon than that last night Was ever wit
