THE AMERICAN CRISIS.

hdcMMdHt hdgdztHf
Meanwhile, does not our heart thrill within us with
mixed feelings Of shame, and admiration and pride,
behold the North girding itself for the battle
How have we scorned the Americans for their worship
of the " almighty dollarv Lo ! the merchants Of
New.York-New-York, the one city of all the North
most dependent s Southern interests the tter-out
savers the stronghold Of the Democratic party for
years-come forward TO pledge their support to she
Union with patriotism and self-sacrihce which put
our sneers to the blush For the first time in history,
since the days of old Rome when Hannibal Was under
her walls, capital-ths most arrant coward under
beaven-has shown itsef courageous. Bears' are
nowhere; money chooses 10 be abundant the prices OF
Northern, loyal, securities struggle not 10 fall.
AS we look upon these things, surely we English
men ought feel that these Of the North in
deed " bone of our bone and flesh of flesh" In
spite of the large increase in old Englands Colonial
family, w-England though now dwelling apart, Is
still her mothers truest counterpart Search the annals
of America and you will that, by natural gravia
ton, almost all that is nobles and best has sought
the \ nth. New England and Pennsy lvania are peo-
pies from the first carrying with them orderly freedom
and selfrespect, and energy indomitable. Virginia,
the Carolnas represent at the outset but the strug
giles and scrambles of broken-down gentlemen and
reckless adventurers. Any CLEANS OF moral beauty
which attach 10 the history Of the South become
Quenched in gloom. The liberation Of Mary land ends
in the disgraceful rOcdyism Of Baltimore. The bright
promise OF Georgas freedom Leads only to the sad dis
sensions between Ogehorpe and the Weseys, and the
shameful sanctoning Of Slavery by Whitfield. Since
the American Revolution, even than before each
worthier batch OF European emlgrants-with one rim
gle noteworthy exception the GermIf OF Texas has
Invariably settled in the Free North and West. And
as to the more recent accreons to the Sorth there
one that does not estrange il and from its
kinsbip with ourselves How much have we In com
mon with the mongrel population OF Louisiana Flori-
da, Texas as compared even with California which
the ndomitabe energy of the North has transformed

and that while pointed the weapon accidentally

three inches below the heart, and passing upward
came out on the right side. The old man immediately
fell to the floor when physician was called, but ths
wound was fatal and death ensued few hours after
ward.
On Monday morning, Coroner Bohnstedt bearing
