^L^7U|s)TY (3_____ LB Another editorial in the American tells more of the Gilmor raid through the county: "Loyal Sufferers by the Late Raid —Amongst the sufferers by. the late raid by the rebels in Baltimore county, Governor Bradford's loss stands No. 1, being not less, at the present value of things than $40,000 or perhaps $50,000, and not eight or ten thousand dollars as stated in the Advocate of last week.

Matthews, of Willow Mills, near Cockeysville, r from whom was taken twelve horses (two whole teams) and one mule, also cars burnt on Cockeysville switch with some nine hundred bushels of wheat, worth nearly $3 per bushel. Edward Rider, Sr., was also a sufferer to a considerable amount, being the owner of the kilns at Texas, which were occupied by our friend Powell Griscom, who was taken by the rabble and held as a prisoner for some time. The cars and sheds burnt, we are informed, were the property of Mr. Rider, but used by Mr. Griscom. Wm. Duncan, Esq., at Shawan, was robbed of some six or eight hundred dollars worth of goods, upon whom the loss falls peculiarly hard. John H. Harman, at Owings Mills, also had several hundred dollars worth of store goods taken. At Reisterstown also were the merchants robbed, the particulars of which we have not heard.

It must be borne in mind that the articles published here are from an ultra union paper and the editor did not hesitate to give his opinion of the Confederacy or the Confederates. The following editorial on the raid gave him full play to describe his feelings at what he thought was a very great outrage. It is lurid and he leaves nothing on his mind unsaid. It is as follows: "Oh, the Chivalry.—We gave last week a part of the bold exploits committed by the soldiery of the Confederacy, whilst the dear lousy creatures sojourned amongst us. In addition, then, we can give the facts in regard to their conduct upon their entry into Worthington Valley, a place having as much treason in it as h—11 itself. Immediately upon their entry into the Valley, an indiscriminate onslaught was made upon the few honest Union men who live there. Our Senator, John S. Given, had nearly all his horses stolen; David S. Longnecker had two of his best taken. From some others they took corn for their horses and compelled the people to feed the two-legged beasts. Mr. Given was compelled to flee as if for his life, and escaped their wrath; his wife and children left their home for protection, when the darling chivalry opened the dwelling and robbed it of everything of value, cutting open a safe and stealing two gold watches therefrom, also all the clothes of Mrs. Given, and even her childrens clothes, all the bed clothing of every description, blankets, sheets comforts, &c, and left nothing in their stead but a part of a piece of calico, no doubt from some store in the vicinity. We said 'left nothing'; we beg their pardon, and also the pardon of their defenders in Baltimore county, for they did leave something, viz: they polluted the house with lice—real, regular 'grey backs' they were too. These are the chivalric fellows that our ladies were so anxious to associate with; the same to whom a woman of this town introduced her two little innocent children as being the children of a rebel soldier; the same chivalric robbers who were caressed by females who came on horseback into our village to see the creatures; the same whom girls that we know of sit about, watching for hours their entree into this town. We are almost tempted to exclaim 'Great God! is it possible that in this enlightened age of the 19th century there can be found persons who have enjoyed and are now enjoying every comfort that honest people could possibly ask, who would thus treat traitors to their country as well as to their God, and everything honorable and holy We might mention many more instances of the daring acts of those chivalric sons of the South, whilst in our county, but we have ¦?. ¦?¦¦?¦¦?¦¦?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?, ¦?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?. ¦*. ¦?. ,?¦ ¦?¦ .?. ,?¦ ¦?¦ ¦?. .?. ¦*¦ ¦?. neither the space nor inclination to do so. . The robbing of a negro boy in Long Green Valley of thirty cents may do well enough to wind up on, although we feel quite certain that that is still not the meanest act committed."
