Adventures of a refugee.
A gentleman arrived in this city on Saturday evening last, from Baltimore, who has felt some of the effects of Lincolnism in Maryland. On the 19th of April, 1861, he was a prominent participant in the efforts made to prevent the passage of Massachusetts troops through Baltimore, for which he was subsequently arrested on the charge of treason, and held to bail in the sum of $40,000 to appear at the ensuing November term of the U. S. District Court. From that time to within the past few weeks his case has been pending, when, on a final hearing before Judge Taney, he was released. Relieved of his bond by the action of the Court, he started for Dixie, and after one or two narrow escapes, reached Richmond in safety. He immediately connected himself with an artillery company, in which he has a brother serving, and starts off this morning for the seat of war, with a full determination to be avenged for his persecution in his native State.His report is that a large majority of the respectable inhabitants of Baltimore and the Eastern Shore of Maryland remain steadfast in their attachment to the South, and have full confidence in the ultimate triumph of the Confederacy.
