MARYJLA KP A*D lIER NEUTRAL
DODGE.
Although the time for discussion is past,
it should be remembered that the broth
erhood of rebels in the South, have
not dared to trust one solitary act of
their usurpation to a vote of the people.—
They were delegated to Montgomery for a
preliminary and specific purpose, which
they amplified into all manner of legisla
tive and judicial authority, and all subordi
nate authority in the army and navy. It is no
justification to know that the mass of their
deluded and overawed constituents have
acquiesced afterwards, and most assuredly
when the re-aotion takes place, they will
then remind their tyrants of this important
fact as a reserved right.
No allusion, of course, is made to this
comprehensive absorption in Jeff Davis’s
message, that mass of conglomerate false
hood, no authority or precedent quoted.
Marshall, Story, Kent and Taney are all
ignored on constitutional law. Every Pres
ident Binoe the foundation of the Republic
has anathematized his procedure, and all
the living Ex-Presidents have rallied to the
standard of the Union, except one, John
Tyler I and strange to say, in the festive
month of May, 1842, this same man found
ample authority to suppress the insurrection
in Rhode Island, oven before the rebels
resorted to arms.
Tt is for despots and trimmers like these,
that a clique in Maryland are Btill working
-to hand over their State to desolation, —
toj sacrifice eonsidrahlo historic glory to
the ambition of the cotton anti sugar
States, whoso interests, Maryland with tho
rest of-the If Dion have protected by leg
islation much more than they, and whose
slave pens have never been touched by
Northern interference, for they have never
lost a slave.
The conduct of these Maryland conspira
tors is quite as dishonorable and treacherous,
and requires watching. The District of Col
umbia was carved out of her own soil and
passed to the General (iovernment by as ab
solute a defeasance of all power over it as
words could convey, for the uses of the
Capital of the Nation, li was considered
at the time as a compliment to Maryland,
that she should have the honor of ceding a
portion of her soil for that purpose. They
are bound in honor to defend it to“the pos
sessors, but the spirit of their early patriots
and statesmen is gone, —in the veins of their
successors the current flows of tho Bladens
burg racers, or half turning their baoks
they cry out for neutrality, a thing unknown
to fhe laws of the country.
Since the Capital is threatened it is noth
ing less than covert treason awaiting for
strength to be full blown. Where do they
get their precedent for this. They depre
cate the passage of troops over their soil,
and allow their millionaires to throw mon
ey and tho deadly engines of war into the
balanoe to destroy the Union.
Is this what is called armed neutrality ?
if so, it should be watched night and day
with eyes wide open,—with lidless eyes of
the dragon ! Never was there an hypocrisy
so dangerous. When Jeff Davis promised to
take dinner in Washington City, by first of
May, the nest of rebels were ready to join him;
now that they must fall back or act on the de
fensive, they become neutrals. If they
had a spark of patriotism left, they would
know, that theirs is the post of honor to
keep them baok, and their conduct is no
better than that of Floyd, Cobb and
Thompson, who have fled the Capital of the
country. Any doubt on this point of feal
ty is scattered by their proceedings at Fred
erick on the 9th inst.
. Mr. Wallis, in his report on Gov. Hick’s
message, avows that while they submit to
all the loyal and constitutional powers of
the General Government (they being jud
es) they “<lo reverence, nevertheless, the
great American principle of self-govern
ment, and sympathize deeply with their
Southern brethren in their noble and man
ly determination to uphold and defend the
same.” This, with other trash,“is their
neutrality. The only difference between
the real South Carolina article of treason
and that of Maryland, is favor of the for
mer. The devil in the one case is bare-foot
ed, and you may count every toe on his l
cloven foot. In the latter his extremities
are covered with a fine patent leather boot,
and skulking in the crowd seeks to lose
identity until opportunity offers to do ill
wont; but it is easily detected by the b mell
They are just in position of Arnold at West
Point, and*there is as much need this day
of a gallows in Baltimore or thereabout, os
a “ memento mori, ” as in the rebel city of
Charleston itself!

for the last four weeks havo been conducted
without publicity, and that the editors of pa

THE STAY LAW.
Alter sundry amendments, as already no
ticed in the Post, made in the House, tho
4tay law act went back to and
amende 'l in that body, was re
turhjed td which agreed to all the
Sedate amendments except one, and upon
this one a committee of conference was ap*
pointed, which has not yet reported.
We are indebted to Mr. Penny for a copy
of the bill as it now stands in the hands of
the conference committe. The italicized
lines in the first section were adopted by the
House. To this the Senate disagreed, deem
ing it unconstitutional, and on motion of
Mr. Penny it was stricken out in the Senate
and re-placed with an amendment, explain
ing the required security to mean “persona
possessed of real or personal estate” in the
county, deemed sufficient by the Court.—
Between the words as printed in the bill and
this amendment, the conference committee
have to decide.
In the first section of the bill, immediate
ly preceding the last proviso, tho Senate, on
motion of Mr. Penny, inserted an amend
ment, which has been agreed to l*y the
House,to the effect that the stay of execution
as provided in the bill shall extend to the
interest, as well os principal of judgments,
for sums under five hundred dollars.
As the bill has been materially altered
from what it was when first published, and
is now yery nearly in the shape in which it
will pass, wo give it below :

A New Implement of War.
Saturday’s New York Herald gives the fol
lowing description uf a new gun, tho inven
tion ol & Mr. McCarty, tried in that city on
Friday :
“ It is one of the most singular implements
of war that has ever been exhibited to the
American people, and places Wmans' 6 un en
tirely in the shade, sending balls at tbo rated
four hundred and eighty per minute without
any powder or an apparent effort. The gun
used yesterday in the experiment had only an
inch bore and was about three feet long. This
modosl looking gun Is attached to a wheel
about four leet in diameter, and not over four
inches thick, looking like a flange, or as Borne
wouid call it, a balance wheel. On one side
of this wheel, or flange, is a tube which con
nects tho whoel with a hopper, in which are
poured tho balls in a promiscuous manner, as
apples are thrown into the hopper of a cider
mill, the machinery inside ol this whoel re
ceiving the balls, carrying them around to the
gun barrel, and throwing them through the
bore of the gun barrol at tho rato mentioned
above simply by tbo centrifugal force, and at
a velocity almost incrediblo.
The motion o' this wheel is kept up by
moans of cranks attached to cog wheels, about
five feet in tho rear of the largo wheel, or
feeder to the gun b&rrol, a band passing from
these wheels to a pulley on the side of the
large wheel. Tho gun that wo saw in opera
tion, using one inch balls, was worked by six
men at tho cranks as motive power, one as
feeder, pouring the balls into the hopper, and
the Inventor of the gun in the rear of all,
taking aim and shifting the gun at will from
one direction to another. With the power got
up in this way balls poured out of the gun in
a perfect stream, and it appeared as though
onecontinuoua shower was being hurled against
the target, stationod about lUty yards distant,
most of them going through throo thicknesses
of boards. The gnn was afterwards raised at
an angle of thirty d°grees, and its capacity as
to distance tested. Tno river at the foot of
Thirty-third street is about ono.and three
fourths miles wide. The gun was stationed
some distance back from the shore, and tho
halls were seen to drop into the water amongst
the shad poles towards tho west Bide of the
Hudson, at tho lowest estimate ono mile from
the starting point, and all this by centrifugal
force, or the arrangement of tho machinery to
use this throwing off power.
When the machinery is put in motion it
sounds liko a threshing machine, and has a
like hum about it. Tho only roport about its
firing is the clank of tho bells passing into tho
large wheel. They pass off without the least
i noise, no ono knowing their departure until
; they strike ttie target at a distance. Tho ex
periment yesterday wbb a complete success,
and its operation justifies the assertion that for
the purpose of putting down a street mob, no
implement has been invented its equal. No
band of desperadoes could stand many min
utes before an incessant fire of almost five
hundred balls per minute. The same inventor
has a thirty-two poandor on tho principle of
the gun completed. The machinery works by
means of steam,-and will throw fully as many
balls as the small gun.
The inventor oi this wonderful implement
of war Is Mr. McCarty. He has spent some
ten years upon the project, and has finally ob
tained a gun that bids fair to do all that his
wildest dreams pictured to him. A person
connected with the establishment intends to
visit Washington the iirst of next week, and
urge the War Department to try one of them.
/Several of the officers of regiments forming
In the city witnessed the operation of .the gun
yesterday, and McLeod Morphy intends to
take one for his regiment. It is reeUy-pne of
the wonder- of the.day, and if, on future tri-
its yesterday',* effort, cannot

pressed with tbo idea that an attack upon the
Arsenal and United States troops U intonded
on tho part of the militia of Missouri. I am
greatly at a low to know what rould justify
you in attacking citizens of the United Slates
who are in tho lawful performance of duties
devolving upon them, under tho Constitution,
in organizing and Utructing tho militia of the

have been to doubt the correctness of
the information 1 have received.
I would bo glad to know from you perion

So far as regards any hostility being intended
toward tho United States, or its proporty or
representatives, by any portion of my com
mand, or as far as I can learn, (and 1 think I
am fully informed) of any other part of tbo
States forces, I can say positively that tho idea
has never been entertained. On thecontrary,
prior to your taking command of tho Arsenal,
I profforod to Major Bell, then in command of
the very few troops constituting Us guard, tho
Borvico of myself and all my command, and,'lf
noceasary, the whole power of the State, to
protect the United States in the full possession
of &li her property. Upon dsn. Harney’s ta

New York Buying arms In Europe.
Tho New York Herald says :
“It Is not generally knowa that the State of
New York has agents m Kurope purchasing
arms, but such is the fact nevertheless. The
bills were passed; one appropriating $500,000
with which to equip ana arm the milita; the
other being the $8,000,000 bill, with the par
ticulars of which our readers must be well ac
quaintod. The smaller sum was drawn from
the Treasury, and experienced agents sent to
Eur po with it. It is reported that many
have met with success, and that among their
purchases are rifled oanoo, and several thous
and Minie muskets. The reception of these
arms will be welcome news to the thousands of
our volunteers now without weapons. The
military board, it is Bald, ore only awaiting
the arrival of theteGMgo, when they will des
patch all those troops now in camp and unpro

said to be notone musket fit to use where ten

tiss, however, distinctly apprised his visit
or that he expected an attack from the Ten

“ Headquarters, Camp Defiance, )

‘‘Colonel Lloyd Tilghman, commanding
the western division of Kentucky Militia,
including Paducah and Columbus, places
that have been considered as menacing our

“ Colonel Silghman —‘l have visited you,

.VII EARNRSA iqiuTKM
“Colonel Tilghman— Ves, sir, I feel
authorized to express that view of it. The
press ought to be restrained in its roadv cir
culation of errors. There is not. a word of
truth in the statement of there being 12,1H>0
men at Padueah for inva-ion; or, as to the
concentration of troops in any part of Ken
tucky, under my control. As to the recent
arrival of arms at I'-oluuibus, they were the
property of the stale. This, as her right,
Illinois cannnot raise an objection to. Ken
tucky has her own rights to defend and no
state can do it more powerfully. She is a
warm aod generous friend, but a hearty
enemy. We do not wish war. We aro
now electing our representatives to Con
grese, with the intention of holding out the
olive branch. But the commerce of Ken
tucky is largo, and our people do not under
stand how muoh of it is to be interrupted
cn transit, They feel that they cannot ship
a barrel of flour without being subjected to
this syßtem oi espionage, which is entirely
inadmissible.'
THE REPLY
“Colonel Prentiss—‘l am instructed to
c eize no property unless I have information
thatsuoh property consists of munitions of
war, destined to the enemies of the United
Btutes government.’
“Colonel Tilghman—‘Then you would
not consider munitions of was shipped to
Kentucky, under her authority, as contra
band V
“Colonel Prentiss—‘That would depend
upon the point whether Columbus Is arming
and menacing us.’
“Colonel Tilghman—‘They have not been
and are not, allow me to say.'
“Colonel Prentiss—‘Then I have been
misinformed. Generally there would be
no detention of munitions of war destined
to the authorities of Kentucky.’
THE POSITION oK KENTUCKY
“Colonel Tilghman —‘The position 1 wish
to assume is, that Kentuoky is the peer of
Illinois, and would not consent to any
thing of tbo kind, under any pretence.
Kentuoky probably would never consent to
tho blockade of the Ohio.’
“Colonel Prentiss—‘But if, as you say,
Kentuoky is u loyal state, she would have
to allow the blockade of the Ohio. 1 assure
you Illinois wnuld allow it, if required by
the genral government. Kentucky has not
done her full duty to the government.
She has not furnished her quota of troops
upon the demand of President, in defence
of the national flag; and this shows we are
right in apprehending certain disaffected
and disloyal communities which rule to
some extent the sentiment of the state.’
“Colonel Tilghman* —‘I frankly ac
knowledge that you have the advantage of
there. But after my intercourse with you
and reassuring you of the groundlessness
of your fears in my official oapaoity, it
would be very inconsistent with your pre
vious intimations, for you to credit counter
rumors. My dear sir, there are not organ
ized fifty men, in Western Kentuoky, out
side of my command.”
“Colonel Prentiss—‘As soon as onr force
is thoroughly organized here, I intend to
visit the other siee.”
“Colonel Tilghman—‘We shall receive
you with evesy Kindness. The position of
Illinois and Kentucky relatively is very
delicate, and on that account allow me to
say that I hope you will continue in eom
mand here. Affairs must be managed on
both sides with calmness. I think there is
hardly a mao in a hundred in the State of
Kentuoky but would fight for the old con
stitution as interpseted by the Supreme
Court. lam highly gratified at this inter
view, and 1 hope to see yourself and staff
over there some day.’ ”

SIR: 1 have seen in some of the city pa
pers what I esteem statement
as regards|p pay 6ef the officers and sol
diers of tbeStpolunt^rs.—As these volun
teers sire to be mustered into the service of
the United States, and become for the time
being a part of the regular army, it is fair
to assume thaMheir pay in one case will be
the same as in the other—or, in other words,
that the volunteer soldier, while in tho ser
vice of the government, will be entitled to
the same pay, and no more, as the soldier
of the regular army.
Now, let us see what the pay is of such
officer and soldier. What I here state in
reference to that matter is fact, and cannot
be contradioted. In stating the pay, sub
sistence, forage, 5c., of the officer, my
are based upon a time of war, which differs,
in some respcots, from what he is now en
titled to in time of peace.
Lieutenant c010ne1,8270 per month, forty
rations per day, seven horses, and four ser
vants. It may be well here to state that of
ficers' subsistence is computed at thirty
cents per ration, forage, $3 per mfinth for
each horse actually owned and kept in se.r
vice.
Major-general, 5220 per month, fifteen
rations per day, seven horses and four ser-
Urigadier-general, 1,21 per month, twelve
rations per day, five horses and three ser
vants.
Colonel of engineers, topographical engi
neers, ordinance, dragoons, cavalry, or
mounted riflemen, 1,10 per month, six ra
tions per day, live horses and two servants.
Lieutenant-colonel, sfthe same corps !)o
per month, five rations per day, four horses
ami two servants.'
Major, of the same corps, SO per month,
four rations per day, four horses and two
servants.
faptain, of the same corps, 7 11 per month
four lations per day, four horses and one
servant
Lieutenant (hirst and second,) of the same
e.orps, 52,33. J per month, fonr rations per
day, two horses and one servant
Adjutant of dragoons, cavalry, or mount
ed riflemen, inaddition topav, Ac., of lieu
tenants, 10 per month.
Regimental ipiartcnnaster, of do., in ad
dition to pay, Ac., of lieutenants, 1(1 per
month.
Sergeant-major of do., 21. per mouth,
gtuartenuoster of do., 21 per month.
Chief bugler of do., 21 per moDth.
First <.ergo.ant of do., 20 per month; ser
geant, 17; corporal, 1-1; bnblcr. Id, farrier
and blacksmith, Id; privates, 12.
Master Armorer, master earriage-rnaker,
or master blacksmith of ordnance,3o per
month; armorer, carriage-maker, or black
smith ordnance, l'i; artificer, lfi; laborer,
Colonel, 'd.d per month, six rations per
day, four horses rnd two servants.
Lioutenant-oolonel, M) per month, five
rations per dov, three horses and two ser
vants.
Major, ill per month, four rations, three
horses and two servants.
Adjutant and regimental quartermaster
receive each, in addition to pav, sc, of
Lieutenants, 10 per month, and two horses:
Captain, tiO per month, four rations per
day and one servant.
First lieutenant, .’>o per month, four ra
tions per day and one servant.
Fecund lieutenant, SO per month, four
rations per day and one servant.
Sergeant major, 21 per month; quarter
master sergeant, 21; principal musician of
infantry, 21; first sergeant, 20; ordnance
sergeant, in additiod to pay of sergeant, O;
sergeant, 17; corporal, Id; artificer of artil
lery, l.d; musician, 12; private, 11.
SAPPERS, MINERS AND PnNTONNIERS.
Sergeant, 3-1 per month; corporal, ‘2O;
musician, 12; private of the first class, 17,
private of the second class, 13.
The above is tho pay of the officers, &c.,
of the regular army of the United States,
and as the publications referred to are cal
culated to mislead the public mind in re
gard to this matter, I doubt not a correct
statement in regard to it will be acceptable
at the present time.
A Patriotic Letter from the Colonel of the
Sixty.ninth.
