MARYLAND.
As stated in the Star some days since, Mary
land bas undoubtedly adopted tbe free State
Constitution. We sincerely congratulate her
slaveholders on tbe fact that after tbe 1st prox
imo they are to be rid o 1 their incumbrance
Had the new Constitution been defeated, nearly
every slave in the State capable of running off
would have "absquatulated," leaving their
owners w th those too young, too old, too lame
or too sick to labor, upon their hands, to be
fed and clothed by them under the provisions
of the old law of the State, wnich makes it
obligatory on Maryland's slaveholders to do
so. The adoption of the new Constitution
makes their support hereafter chargeable upon
the communities in which they respectively
reside.
With A No. 1 negro men selling in Charles
en at S1C0 in gold, and A No. 1 negro girls
elltng in Richmond at ?3n in gold (?1,000 in
Confederate nouey), as at present, and with
negroes utteiiy unsalable in Maryland at one
dollar per dozen?the current value ot a single
string of A No. 1 Connecticut onions?there
existed no prospect that in the course of human
events the slaves ot Maryland could ever
again have any market value to be paid for.
Thus is exploded, in few words, tbe plea for
the justice and propriety of "compensated
emancipation." Compensation by the General
Government, ample and liberal, was offered
by those in Congress known as ultra anti
slavery men. ere their market value was utter
ly destroyed by the rebellion, but was blindly
rejected by tbe Maryland representatives who
claimed to be the especial guardians of the in
terests of the State's slaveholders. The latter,
as a class, have l een tbe only active and in
fluential aiders and abettors of the rebellion in
tbe State, and in aidii g and abetting it have
simply aided to get butchered their own chil
dren, relatives ai,d dependents whom they en
couraged to go South and fight against their
country, and to utterly destroy the value of
their property for the benefit of which not
a few of them ele? ted to become as thorough
traitors at heart as the most of the slave
holders in J>ff Davis's dominions.
We pity them sincerely, though convinced
that tbe swift retribution that has overtaken
them is well dewerved.
Two great results are, however, immediately
to flow from the adaption of the free State con
stitution. The first is the effect of this action
of the people of Maryland upon the prospects
of the rebellion at home and abroad. It for
ever destroys the hope that Maryland can pos
sibly become a part of the Southern Confede
racy. and makes it certain that Kentucky,
Missouri and Delaware will speedily take
similar measures to assure themselves to the
Lrnion. past peradventure.
The second great result of this action of
Maryland will speedily be realized in tbe al
tered prospects of tbe State in the matters of
progress and tbe development of her indus
trial resources of every description, which,
though dormant up to this time through the
influence of slavery, are second to those of no
other territory ia the world of the same dimen
sions. The increase in twenty-flve years of
tbe aggregate wealth of ber people, of their
general intelligence and industry, of the ad
vantages they will derive (from the State's
necessary new policy) for th education of their
children at schools and in workshops, will pay
her back twenty fold as much as her people,
one and all, have lost through the war, inclu
ding the former market value of her slaves.

Major Gen. D\x, Neva York:
The following dispatch has been received:
?? Chattanooga, Tbhn., Oct. 17, 3 p. m.? 1
Hood's main force was about Lafavette last j
night, and Sherman at Ship's Gap. The report j
ui yesterday that Hood was approaching Car
penter's Ferry is a mistake. He had not crossed
Lookout Mountain last night.
"J. M. Schofieli>, Major General."
Another offloial dispatch, dated at Chatta*
nooga yesterday, is as follows :
?I left General Sherman at Ship's Gap, in
Taylor's Ridge, at dark last night. The Gen
eral and armv are all right and in tbe best ot
spirits, llood won't flgbt, though offered bat
tle repeatedly His dreadful repulse at Alla
toona has made him very cautious. General
Slocum is all right at Atlanta, with plenty of
provisions and forage.
"Hood's raid bas produced no military result
as yet. If he fails to invade Tennessee, as he
has promised bis men, be will lose by deser
tion twice as many as he has captured. The
losses in men thus far have been iu our favor, j
"Hood demanded the surrender of Kesaca and
Dalton, and said, it surrendered, white officers
and soldiers would be paroled in a few days; \
but that if tte potts were carried by assault,
no prisoners would be taken.

No guerrillas have made their appearance

From Manassas to White Plains the Quar

at "a point about two miles above White flams.
These quartermasters' men commenced their

Alexandria has not been cut as yet, but it is
expected that the Pennsylvania troops who
are stationed in the vicinity will soon be set to
work clearing it out

PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION.
The Official Union Majority on the Home
Vote 1.954 thus far.
Philadelphia, Oct. 19.?A dispatch from a
Harrisburg correspondent says the official vote
ot fifty-nine counties has been reliably tabled
at that city, wbich show a Democratic gain of
I(>,'292, and a Union gain of 2,919, over the
gubernatorial vote of 1863. The excess of these
gains, 13,373, deducted from the Union majority
of 18B3, namely, 15,325, leaves a Union majority
of 1,952, with the counties of Clarion, Forrest,
Jefferson, Mercer, Venango, Wyoming, and
York, yet to be heard from officially.

Harrisiicrg, Oct. IS.?In my letter of yes

elect the Union candidate in the Sixteenth Dis
trict, again.-1 the home majority of H. Coffroth,
Democrat. But the information received here
to-day, from the examination of the army re
turns is, that General Wm. H. Koontz will be
elected. The Democratic majority of six hun
dred and ninety-seven on the home vote is al
ready swamped by the soldiers' votes, and the
information warrants the assertion that Koontz
will have a surplus of five or six hundred after
whipping Coffroth.

Seventh Ward Lincoln and Johnson
Clcis.?In pursuance to a call, a spirited meet
ing was held at Island Hall last e veiling by the
citizens of the Seventh Ward, for the purpose
of forming a Lincoln and Johnson Clnb.
J ustice F. A. Bos well was ealled to the Chair,
and C. C. Anderson appointed Secretary.
The Chair stated the immediate object of the
meeting to be lor the purpose of making ar
rangements to join in the torch light proces.
sion on Friday night.
Mr. J. R. Elvans inquired if the object was
simply to form a temporary organization, or
was it intended that the organization was to be
permanent I
The Chair replied the organization was to be
permanent, to continue after the present cam
paign. He remarked that the Dem Jack- Ass.
held weekly meetings at the other end of the
ward, and he thought that there were yet Union
men enough in the ward to form at least, as re
spectable an association.
Mr. Elvans hoped that the association would
be a permanent one, so that there would be no
need of organizing lor each campaign He
stated that the city club had what was termed
a "black book" in wbich it was proposed to
place the names ?f all persons who were not
favorable to tbe election of Mr. Lincoln, and
hoped that alter tbe names of tbe members of
the Seventh Ward club were procured that
they would be sent to tbe executive committee
ef the city club. By this means those in the
Seventh Ward who held offices and who were
not true to the Union?who had never been
beard to utter a Union sentiment? ?oald be
reached. If McOlellan was elected they in
tended to submit and wait tbeir time, but if he
is not elected all who have not been true will
be looked to.
On motion of Mr. Peter Hepburn, the initia
tion fee was fixed at si.
Mr. Elvans stated that it wa? proposed that
tbe procession should start at 7 o'clock, and In
their route they would take in Maryland av
enue, from the Capitol to 7th street, and thence
to the city. The executive committee proposed
to furnish lanterns, torches, Ac., and bad pre
pared 500 of the former and about 1,000 of the
latter, besides Roman candles. The question
of music should be considered, and he stated
that he knew a band who wonld play for any
Lincoln and Johnson clnb provided no money
was offered them. Tbis band belongs to Fin
lev Hospital, and were all trna men.
Mr. P. Hepburn moved the appointment of
an executive committee; carried.
Messrs. W. T. Ford, G. White, P. Hepburn
and George Colllson were appointed; and the
Cbair (Mr. Boewell) was added as chairman.
Mr. John Webster was elected treasurer.
C. M. Wheeler waa selected as marshal for
the ward, and various committees were ap
pointed to complete tbe arrangements; and the
meeting adjourned to to-night.
