in the day when they excited the just in

very well-meanin persons who imagine

persons used to tulk‘of disunion as not the
very worst evil that could overtake the
country. They were in favor qf letting the
South [lO, as a burden and a nuisance.—
They thought that:the North would be
more prosperous without the Southern
States. Rather than make the smallest
concession to save the Union, they were
willing to see it destroyed. ‘These persons
are now ferociously patriotic, having nkeen
scent for traitors and a terrible thirst for
blood. They are all devotion to the Gov.
ernment snd the Union, not, it thew'eal
truth were known, because they have a
patriotic horror of the dismemberment of
this Nation. but really because the rebels
against whom the Government is compelled
to take up arms are those towards whom
they cherish the most implnénble hatred-«-
They uphold the Government; not because
it is the Government and its‘integrity must
be maintained, but because the war hap
pens to be in consonsnce with their perso
nal prejudices and resentmems. Many of
these persons Were violently append to
the Government when engaged in the war
with Mexico. and did not haitate to pro
claim their treasonable sym othy with the
foreign foe ; but they would have us believe
them the most disinterested of patriots now.

in your dis} tch,§that l was carrying on

when ts war o‘, l’ oulhinrc was to be waged, my
not might he i u mutter of di‘zcuseirm. And
in that view. actinglin the light of the lini
timore murders mg the apparently lioiitile
position ofMarylnn _,your Excellency‘might,
without mature refléctiol. have come to the
conclusion of dimp irobatifn cxprersed ,in
your digsputch. Bui the facts, cspeoiully us
now aided by their» results, will _emircly
justify my act. and reinstate me in your Bx
cellency's good 01 nion. ‘
True, I landed n the noil of Maryland
against the formal. {protest of its Governor
and of the corporate authorities of Annapo
lis, but without ahy armed oppooition on
their part, and expecting opposition only
from insurgents nest-milled in riotous con
tempt of the laws of thic State. Before; by
letter, and at the time of binding, by person
nl interview, ‘I had informed Gov. Hicks
that soldiers of the Union, under my cum
m'and, were armed only against the insur
gents and disturbers of the peace of Mary
land and of'the United States. I received
from Gov Hicks assurances of the loyalty
of the State to theCnion—aseuranceswhich
subsequent event: have fullyjustificd. The
Mayor of Annapolis also informed me that.
the city authorities would in no wise oppose
me, but that I was in great danger from the
excited and riotous mobs of Baltimore pour
ing down upon me, and in nizmhm-qlieyoml
the control of his police. I assured both
the Governor and the Mayor that I had no
fear of a. Baltimore or other mob, and that.
supported by the authorities of the State
and city. I should repress all howtile de
monstrations against the lows of Miiryhmd
and, the United States, gmd that Iwould
protect both myself and the city of Annapo
lis from any disorderly persons whatsoever.
On the morning following my landing. I
was informed that the city.of Annapolis
and environs were in danger from an in
surrection of the slave population, in de
fiance of the laws of the State. What was I
to do? Ihad promised to put down a white
mob and to preserva and enforce the laws
against that. Onghtl to allow a black one
any preference in a breach of the laws? I
213811“ th that I was armed againstoll in—
tions of the lows, whether b white or
black, and upon thnt understanding I acted ‘
certainly with pro'mptnesa and efficiency.
And your Excellency’s shadow of disapprd,
bation, arising from a misunderstanding of‘
the facts, has caused all the regret I hovel
for that action. '
The question seemed to me to be noither
military nor political, and was not to be so
treated. It was simply a question of good
faith and honaty of purpose. The benign
efl'oct of my courso was instantly seen.—
The ood but timid poo lo 8f Annapolis,
who ind fled from then-Bmm“ at our op
pmluh, immediatdly returned; businesq re
milfi in wcuatomod channels: quiet and
order mulled in city; confidence took
