will unite in resisting wrong. We believe, Before
Heaven, that If the indignities which have been
put upon the South in the last two years DO not
move our people 10 action, our enemies are inca
pabe or any Injustice which VIII provoke us 70
resistance. The Northern people have clear heads
if they have black hearts. They know just how far
they may safely go, and their schemes of IMPOSE
ton will always be graduated with the most exact
reference to the amount of wrong which we VIII
tolerate. Little by little we are to be robbed OF
our rights, until at last we shall md ourselves
completely destroyed, and yet the inroad will
have been SO gradual that we can point TO no one
step OF aggression which Of itself would have JUS
titled resistance. ..-...u-.- .-.
We know, and every man who reads this SEN
tenee knows, that if Congress lad abolished the
slave trade in Columbia, twenty -hve years
ago, that it would have met the undivided OPPOSE
ton of the South. Therefore 1t was not done
twenty-five years ago. We'll, the Indications are,
that II Congrers should abolish slavery IN the us
trict noD, it would be resisted by the South, and
hence they do not abolish it noio. But few years
hence, the South would not resist 1t, and then II
will as certainly be done as the sun. shines And
thus 1t is with every measure OF contemplated
outrage upon the South Men talk of resisting the
Wllmot Proviso. Fudge-nonsense. lrthey do
not resist now, neither would they resist then
The argument is already coined, and passes cur
rently, by which this would be justified. '.Did
not Congress apply the ProvIso to Oregon, and did
not your Southern President sanction it, and did
any body want to fight about il" Who has not
heard this over and often, and who does not know
that this would be the position of the submission
isis, whenever the issue shall be presented? No;
no. Let no true-hearted Southern man deceive
himself. If he has spark of Southern fire about
him, and is not determined to sacrifice his country
by piece meal let hun rally NOW under the banner
of RESISTANCE. five are to make stand which
shall be eectual for the protection ofour families
our homes and our property, NOW is the time. -
We may, nay, we can right ourselves and save the
Union by action now, but if we submit to our pre-
sent wrongs, it may be OUT Of our power to do
either hereafter.

Al anonymous newspaper writrr has recently
made the discovery that Hood and Holmes
have some evcelant poetry" We'll, -theY
horc-" some that's certain. The writer has
evidently the slma ccmunendlble desire to ac-
knowledge modest merit that the lecturer
possessed who assured his audience that che
by NJ means intended to injurc the welcomed
popularity Of Shabspcare"-a degree Of gene
rous forbcarance for which tho world is exceed
incly indebted TO him. The same writer lnot
Shakespeare, but the newspaper Arst1rchus
aforesaid,) has mpdo The further discovery that
the true poet finds little that is Inspiring in TIE
every day scenes of every day life" We are
sorry 70 hear this, because it KNOCKS poor
Burns repvtlticr "iuto cooked hat" Let us
te thankful that the muzzie of tlis new canon
in criticism was moi pointed at the bard when
he was Just beginning to sing-ose
The world had wanted many an idle song"
In very inst ACCORDANCE with the writer's ey.
cluson Of every day life" from the field Of
poesy, is his declaration that tito true poet
lives in the ideal rather than the real world
The dogma IS, perhaps, a little too strong, but
there are certainly some poets" who appear
to have their dwelling in the ideal world, and
whose admirers are 20 exclusively confined to
the same region, that there seems to be no rea-
son why hey should publish their works in lis
world, where hey are quite certain not to be
q DDreciated
