9Th This paragraph is bundle of nonsense if tits
not intended say that secession is exploded is
sue. 1t is true that resistance wrong has been put
down, by the skill of the punderers confounding the
attack injustice with an attack upon the constitu-
ton of the country and the perpeuity of the govern
ment under which we live. This mainly owing
to the awarkedness of those who proposed resistance
in leaving pegs for the punderers hang their false
hoods upon Men have grown wiser it is to be hoped
and on no point have they attained more light, than
that the aggressions of the North. The evils of
which we have all complained have been told over and
over and will be told again tomorrow, and the day a
ter that-exist-exist because there is class among
US who have gained by them. But the wise brave man
who regards equality more than power place would
say that he is the horse, the ass, who will permit him
self saddled with these evils benefit any class Of
course do not say that the Clarion is eth
er horse or an ass but we remember of having,
great while since, read that the bravest army of anti
putty, the unconquerable Ten Thousand, We're panic
struck by the noise which made in their camp
one night. Is the Clarion panic-struck Has the
noarSe OF tndt ceeDraCed aSS-F O0te--Indde
in the camp of the Democratic party, unnerved that
party Has his believing Union Glorious Union, so
startled that party that dare not any, and every
occasion, its construction of any of its doe
trines One would think So for it has haltered any
number of to the public crib and those who are
anxious 70 sink into soblvion'' sthe unfortunate
and Intellectual past the Clarion calls it appears to
be, might be scrpturay inferred that the feshpots
oil, l., ~
the open and bold advocacy Of those principles which,
fever yielded ''eXploded will consign the South
to the position of province in this republic The
doctrine of secession is expoded' doctrine 1t is
becoming better understood, and we speak the sent-
ment which history will record, when we say that it
has not been presented to the people, and cannot have
been exploded" by their action The Clarion errs
then
18th. The Clarion asserts that ''an rejecting ard
intelligent well know that it is impossible to es-
tabsh permanent third party, based upon isolated
questions Now the man who penned that has read
history to but little purpose, and he is profoundly igno-
rant of the history of parties and sects The Demo
cratic party is based onisolated questions the whg
party is based upon isolated questions the abolition
or ree-soi parties based upon isolated questions
the churches stand all upon the same basis of isolated
questions. And when the Clarion runs into ethics It's
facility blunder not essened by its obligation to its
friends 1t says that the democratic has always
been the State Rights party" This is strange and il
is matter of curious comment how there be desire
for ''third party when The Democratic is the State
Rights party. We may be told that we are singular
but really if close communion is Democratic, and De
mocratc is State Rights shall give up the dip
ping and take to the "sprinkling - There should
always be men enough to resist the reckless desire
those who willing to abandon clipping if it a
the doctrine but where there are interests there
are difficulties and it is very hard persuade any horse
to tighten his own curb. Holding them that secession
is democratic, and that its avowal is proper
inclined take kindly the inferred sur of ccntending
for ''third party" It is strange that should be
prosecuted for contendng that common sense and rea
son should be applied to parties and men, and thai
where neither find ground to vegetate and grow up
that they still will persist in forcing all to believe thai
there is and get angry because they are convicted
attempting to practice deception.
The Clarion says it believes that he State of Mis-
ssspp has done wrong in denying her reserved soye
reignty, and UontariHy surrenderiag herself into tn
hands ola majority of those acdo may from time to time
) control the Federal Gorernnaent"
Now really, five believed there was any chance tc
find community with brains of calf and hearts o
hounds, to speak, think and act after this
giving out, the vocation oft the spoilers might, and in
deed, would be, heightened out to unlimited time
The preserved sovereignty of Mississippi yielded vol
untarly''! Is this Democratic Can men contro
and shape public opinion who entertain and announce
such sentiments If this is the doctrine of the few
may be well yet buff such sentiments spread and
get to be the controlling element of the Masses we
may bid long goodnight to that equality for which
oceans of blood spilled and millions of treasure
were expended. Do we stand upon the brink of Con-
; solidated Despotism Perish the thought
1t is getting be evident now that before the vo-
let hath blossomed the vine put forth its tender
vellous sight the aged and that lamb hath been
seen pushing Southwark and he goat pushing North
ward, and that mighty voice hath been heard saying
Il the he-goat whose blood ceanses the unclean
and all we who tarry beneath the Of the tropc anC
have polluted your skirts by unsanctifed baptism
and who would yourselves from everlasting tor.
ment cling my horns for in the passage hence am
to pasture free-so and to sake my thirst and that
of the faithful, the great National spring at Wash
ington. The lamb that ye pushing Southwark is
to be Slaughtered its flesh burned as an obation and
its blood scattered to the wind to appease the wrath
of the Northern victors" Where, when the trial
cometh, are found they who blew the Clarion notes
for the gathering of Southern power Have thew in
imitation of Judas, their hopes upon the horns Of
the hegoat, and their eyes turned Northward and
will they seek the blood of the lamb and give his flesh
to the flames The Preserved SOVEREIGNTY of Mis-.
