THE FUNERAL OF JOHN II. PEASANTS

Was held on Sunday last in the United Pfes-
byterian Church. The house was immensely
crowded, and many were unable to gain adj
mittance. The funeral sermon was preached
BY Rev. MIR. Stiles, from the text. Thou shalt
love thy neighbor as myself The Richmond
Wing says; -.g-g e u "a.
Upon the code Of honor, 80 called, the Rev.
gentleman commented with much severity
The melancholy scene before him, enforced

tragical occurrence n. 't.'
When the speaker came 10 The special sp-
plicatiOn Of his remarks, the fountains Of all
hearts seemed opened. He observed that it
was nO1 his business TO descant upon the per-
sOnal qualities and character Of the deceased.
These were known at home, and Throughout
Virginia and the nation. But it had been the
speakers privilege to be with him in his last
moments, and he was able to say that he died
in fill belief of the truth Of the Christian
Religion. At this period OF the discourse, the
speaker depicted, in the most touching terms,
the final interview between the ven egablo
mother and the dying son, as she approached
his bed side, his head being tnrned the other
way, she asked il he knew her; Fixing his
eyes upon her beaming with affection, he ex-
claimed, with great emotion, .Oh yes! the
dear mother tCIon1 4 hare Gisc0ys respected

lief afforded by this declaration. which the
mother received as a preyioue legacy Of flial
affection and GevdEcaness. Hs1next spoke Of

To all true wh;-.,

The brief space which iutervenes between
this and the frs, Monday in April, should
be improved by every Wing. No means
which our opponents may regard as essential
10 their success, however dishonorable
they may be, will be wanting on fheir
part. We afe to expect to encounter Fraud
Deception, and all manner of Chicanery-
for these are the natural allies and agents
of locofocoism. But, come in whatever guise
the may, they MUS. be nle,-.their influence
must be counteracted. And, from the spiri,
which is abroad among the people, we are
willing TO hazard our reputation as a proph-
ct, on the prediction, that they 1in be met
not with craven and cowaIdly hearts, but in
spirit of manliness and perseverance.

OF take leave of my reason, at the beck Of any
administration, whose party purposes are sough
to be forwarded by making a war on sister
republic, as unnecessary as it is unjust"
Whatever we have said or done has been en-
tirely voluntary on our part, for we are as little
disposed to be at the "beck of any adminstra-
ton" as our correspondent but we eannot
consent that our army shall be defeated or
disgraced because it's success might be crafty
ing to the administration, or promote the
views of the executive. We are impeled by
higher motives than those of party, to stand by
our country in its conflict with foreign pow
er, whatever may have been the causes which
led to that conflict As editors ola public journal
we have deemed it our duty to encourage the
energetic prosecution of the war in which we
are engaged; and so far we have coincded with
the Executive and with Congressman were
we the most inveterate opponents of President
Polk, and sincerely believed that he had preci-
plated us into hostilites from selfish views,
we should nevertheless advocate sending sue
cour to our army, and desire that it might
prove victorious over the enemy.
We are opposed to a war with Great Britain
believe our government to be wrong in laying
claim to the whole of Oregon-and sincerely
believe, that, with honest efforts directed to
that object, all difficulties in relation to the Or
egon territory could be removed: but suppose
that the false ground, as we believe taken by
the executive upon this subject, should result in
war between Great Britain and the United
States-could we, as American citizens, fold
our arms and look with indifference upon the
destruction of our seaports aledgng as an apol-
ogy for our conduct, that we disapproved the
course of our president? According to the idea
four correspondent, to support the war in such
case, would prove that we were at the 'beck
of the administration, and lending ourselves
to ''the party purposes" ofthe executive. And
vet we should consider ourselves bound to sup
port the war, though believing that it had been
brought upon the country without sufficient
! cause.
