SEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. MARYLAND Maryland votes to-day upon the question whether or not fo hold a State Convention t> the end of repealing the features of her Consti- tutson of 1664, adop'ed by loyal votes in order | to guard agasnst the pernicious influence of the portion of her people openly or secretly affiliating with the rebellion. Delegates to the proposed Convention are alto to be voted for. to act im case the majority of the votes cast are in favor of the measure. This is, of course, ne work of the State's recent Legislature, | which was jargely in strong sympathy with | the rebeilion. To make sure of their work, they enfranchised not only all theavowed reb. els at heart who had not courage, to risk their carcass with arms in their hands, but also every Marylander who left the State, took up arms against the Union and participated in the slaughter of its defenders, &c. The votes of there two classes, added to those of the State's weak-kneed Unionists who lack brain and nerve necessary to ensble them to live upto | be plain requirements of the times, will doubt- jess show an apparent majority for the cheme, in view of @ fact that a larg® ™msjority of Maryland's white staanch | Unionists wash their bands of the whole thing because it is palpably unlawiui- 1¥ called, (and, therefore, revolutionary,) and will not yote, while the colored Unionists are one and all deprivea of the right to vote on the quesuon. Few outside of Maryland will be tound who do not hold that her loyal blacks are far better entitled to the right to vote in sueb a cuse, than ber open and active stay-ar_ bome sympathizers with the rebellion; to say nothing ot ber returned rebel soldiers, who. by the by, are to be placed in all the offices of the | State's new militia, if the proposed changes in its censtitution be consummated. If submitted toa vote. even of the whites of the Stare only, we beheve the proposed new constitution will be rejected: as the influences that will surely prevail in the convention will be more thor- ugbly retroactive and more devotedly at- tached to the dead carcase of slavery, than any » be found at this late day in any other State of the Union, Kentucky not excepted. They wil endeavor to make provision for the fature Payment of ail losses of slaves in that State by | taxatien of the labor of its people in time to come, and they will insist upon reinjecting into the State's organic law every provision of | her former constitutions discriminating against Ber laboring whites in favor of her smal; class of late siavebolders and their depend. | ents, and alto every provision that was de- | signed to >» her colored population in u:ter | ignorance and in the enjoyment of no more rights and privileges of citizenship than the horses, dogs and cattle. There are numerous reasons why this iniquitous and unjust effor to re-enslaye both white and black labor in Maryland—for it is neither more nor less— camnet succeed. Among them stands forth prominenuy the fact that the action of the Legisiature providing for the convention is glaringly revoluuonary: while the conclusions of the convention will deny to the Stat Ole. ored citizens their right of entire political and Jegal co-equality. For these two good and sufficient causes these conclusions will be ig- nominiously set aside by Congress when the time arrives for that body to pronuunce on the character of the instrament this retroactive conyemuon may work out. Marylana Prop- erty-beiders, tax-payers and business men are to be the ultimate only losers by this insane attempt to tie the State for a quarter of a cen- tury to the cause of secession and the late re- bdellion, and te keep her under the control of ber late slaveholding class, who to-day are by BO Means ds competent to Advacce her perma. pent interests asare ber black population, who are evincing energy, industry, and a dispe- sitien to impreve in every desirable way, that | should put to shame those who having former. Jy owned them “by the grace of God,” now | seek, through this proposed convention, to keep tbemsin slavery im all things but in bame. ———— GENERAL HORACE CAPRON General Horace Capron, who was yesterday Dominated to the Senate <s Commissioner of Agriculture, isan eminent and Patriotic citi- zen of Illimois.

THE R IAN TREATY, The treaty with Russia for the transfer to , the United States of the Russian possessions in Northwestern America was ratified by the Senate yesterday. only two votes dissenting: | The only objection of seeming force yet urged against the treaty is that based on the state- ment that this territory is imcumbered by ya- rious charters to foreign trading companies. So tar as the mere fact ts concerned it is true, but the terms of the treaty make special provision tor these existing franchises. Russia first of- fered the territory for $7,000,000, subject to the claims of these companies. This our Govern. ment deciined toaccede to. The Russian Goy- ernment finally offered to assume these claims itself if $200,000 additional were added to the purchase money, which was agreed to, and we received the territory free from all incum- brance by virtue of the charters, franchises and privileges granted to British, Russianand American trading companies by the Russinga Governmeat. This accounts fer the precise sum named as the purchase money. viz. &7,-. 0. The Russian Government will be of- nformed of the tact of its ratification INDISPOSITION OF THE PRESIDENT.
