It is to be hoped that this unanimity of
the people in the non-idavcholdiiig States,
will undeceive the people of tha South (if
(hey are really deceived) us to the deter
mination of the former to sustain the cjii
stituUd authorities, as lo induce Ikem to
(.auso before they d-.'eide upon an olUn
eive war. We are not without hope that
a little time for relied ion on both sides
jnny yet l.e allowed before the angry hosis
shall come into deadly conflict, and if so,
that those precious moments will be de
VJlcd lo nomo sort of an adjustnif nt thai
may yet avert what otherwise threatens
tuch serious calamities.
Congress is to assembli
July. It is not likely that any of the
Southern States, except J'elrvaro and
Maryland, will be lepiesenled therein.
Jt will then Lo the proper occa.-ion for
Ttmgrem lo hold out the olive branch to
(he people o( the South by granting thorn
the iih;s which they allcgu to be denied

that tho Southern peoples' rights in
and to the common territory are equal
with ours in all respei-ts not in mi indi
rect, doubtful, or equivocal manner ; but
in a munner open, Ixdd mid manly, such

The. most active preparations are being
made to bring all the force now here into

At t'.vo o'clock thiti morning Hie boom

The anival of the Italtic is all. impor
tant, inasmuch as t-he I rint:s not only the
troops but the first authentic intelligence
lioin Fort Sumter. It is distinctly Mated
by Major Anderson and l.y every oflieer
who it-Uiriied with him, that
Major AiKlerson did not surrender Fort
Sumter, Lut evacuated it upon his own
terms, and did i-o under more favora

The SceesiiiiinUts of IJaltiuioru having
lorn up ll.e railroad track leading from
the Northern Ik-poU to tho .Southern He
pots, the military were obliged to march
through the City. On the arrival of two
Regiments, one from M issaehusetti and
the other from riiiladelphu, on tho lih
instant, an tittaek win made upon them
by a mob, with (.tones, brick-bats it other
missile. This drew a fue from the sol
diers, discharging their pieced into the
crowd, killing five or six, and wounding
many omers among iueia several niiio
cent ipcctators. Three of the Massachu

The Philadelphia Regiment was una! mod,

however, seem to liavo ueeu rougniy

The .Secessionist!! then proceeded to de
moliidi the bridges on tho railroad from
the North, rendering them unavailable.
The iov. of Maryland and Mayor of
I'liiltimore then united in a demand upon
the "re.-idt-nt that he would not attempt
to pass any more soldier? through Haiti
more, the President replied that he would
not do ho in cac no resistance was made
to the Iriinsportalion of soldier.s through
other parts of Maryland.
A town meeting of the citizens was then
held, from the proceedings of which the
reader will see that Maryland is in a tate
of revolution, and w ill follow Virginia.
The town meeting in Monument Square
this afternoon drew an immense eiowd.
A Stale Hug was hoisted.
