Book Description
Excerpt from An Address to the People of Maryland I trust the condition of public affairs will secure your par don for the language I venture to address to you on the mo mentons questions which agitate the public mind. My life, and the lives of those from whom I sprung, have been passed on your soil. Though I have never sought office at your hands, or at those of the General Government, I trust I need not say to those of you Who know me, that my whole circle of influence (small as it may have been) has been in favor of the welfare and continuance of the Union of the States, and of the welfare and honor of the State of Maryland. If asked whether I love the Union or the State of Mary land most, my reply is prompt and frank. I love the Union most. Born under the Union-my heart has leapt at that glorious name from the earliest recollections of my childhood to the frosty years of an age which, though it has impaired my health and activity, has not diminished the intensity of the love I bear my country. Her glory, her honor, her power, her union, her happiness and welfare, now and for ever, are dearer to me than life. As a bright gem set in the bosom of this glorious Union, Maryland has my strong and loyal affections. I have watched her prosperity with the fondest solicitude from my earliest life, and yet I say to you I love the Union more than Maryland.

Excerpt from Second Address to the People of Maryland Notwithstanding I am fully aware and justly proud of the well-known fealty and loyalty Of the People Of Maryland to their State and National Governments, it seems to me that it may be profitable, in these days of rebellion and disunion, to recall to your view some general outline of the powers vested in those Governments respectively under which we have so long lived in prosperity and honor.

Book Description
Excerpt from Third Address to the People of Maryland Amidst all the troubles which surround us, it has been to me most fortunate that the paramount allegiance I owe to my country has been perfectly consistent with the loyal attachment I have ever felt for the State of Maryland. Her interests and honor, I believe, are firmly bound up in the Union. If that Union be broken, either on the Potomac or on Mason and Dixon's line, Maryland will receive a heavy blow. To part her from her sisters of the South is to paralyze her left side; whilst to separate her from her sisters of the North is to paralyze the right. Maryland is still in the Union. I believe her only safety is to he found in its perpetuity. It is often said that the boundaries of governments are fixed and controlled by advantages of trade and commerce; that commercial prosperity is the first tiling to be secured in settling the boundaries of a people. There is, however, another question which rises high above commercial advantages. Security is the master-principle. No State can attain high and permanent prosperity unless her boundaries are defensible by her sons; whilst her women and children, her aged and infirm, are safe around their hearths, and her operatives free from interference with their industrial pursuits. Liability to the occupation of the enemy during war, is fatal to any State. It will break down the spirit of a people. It exposes the women and children, the old and the infirm, to a series of insults and wrongs, at the mere contemplation of which the heart sickens.
