General himself, il BY way Of holding thi
"Soulhron" in terrorsn, he should threaten hin

We have also seen, several extracts from al
article which appeared in the Columbia, CSC.
Telescope, with the signature of MoIo, said to
be from the pen of DR.. Cooper. If this is the
fact, we have no hesitation in saying, that we
are proud he is not an AMERICAN by birth, nor
can he disgrace us by his principles. We will
no, offend our readers nor sulIy our sheet by
quoting sentiments as black as The heart from
which they emsnated. We trust in God tina,
this man will be frowned down by an indignant
people. He who with parricidlal ingratitude
raises his hand against the country which gave
him home, liberty and even distinction de-
serves the Reproduction and execration Of every
honest man in the community. lngralitude in
his case, assumes deeper dye, and the
scoln and contempt Of mankind should follow
him 10 the "vile dus, from whence he spranc."
In this crisis, however distressing, these indi-
vidual instances Of anti American feeling ART,
it is cheering to know that the PEOPLE are
with Us and for u.s. II as we trust thy will
act becomes them, our UNION and LIBERIIEs
are SAFE, despite Of these few reckless and evil
spirits and their base attempts.
