Well, it sa rather beautiful commentary.
when dj>pasioHateiv considered. that's a
fact. The so1th, according to Senator HAM

ot seventy, and Ii she cannot still everything

Exactly SO! But at the Same time we are
gradually losing the power Of ce II Trolling the
country, and we should be perfectly wide
awake to the iact. We cordially approve Of
every measure calculated to arouse the South
to an appropriation Of her position when the
North becomes strong ensush 10 dictate

II has been the boast ofsome Northern Nc
1tica' leaders, that when BLACK Republican,
SIN became sufficiently powerful, thew would
'ct as they thought fit, and dictate terms and

" the Southern Rights men as & fearful in
Ut the future! To us. how. silly this
iPpears. AS If we could be driven and COM
'elled to remain in the Union when We were
determined to 60 out Of it. Who ever looked
'Toa SUCH a menace as anything bat an idle
'tt1sion Of a disordored brain? And vet lust
