The Unions .disioyaIty.

=. The Union, in its last issue, says 1--WE
defy any man or set Of men to point to
one expression in its columns disloyal to
the country.
What did you can, Mr.. Union, about
the month of April last when you said,
We have always said that Lincoln could
never be President of m ore than half the
United States.''
.--. The following from the Providence
(Rhode Island, Democratic Journal,
during the campaign of 1856, tells just
what you meant; viz, The question of the
continuance Of the Union IS now reduced
TO this simple question; whether the
Black Republican party actually repre-
sents the North, or majority of the peo
! pie Of the North. This will be decided in
Novembers II tits decided in the affirm
alive. then we shall say unhesita.ingly;
tba. the great blow of disunion has been
struck. The South will not wait to be
subjugated. Men OF Rhode Island! you
may as well look this matter squarely in
the face! Should John c.. Fremont take
the Presidential Chair to-day he would
,have'to sit there without a single Cabinet
officer from any Southern stllel No m an
in,the South, with a particle iofreputation
would dare to accept office under him.
ia Its folly to talk of the importance Of
the Union to the South. Slavery would
stand on a frmer basis with the Urion
dissolved than it does Today.
The Richmond Enquirer of Oct. 9Th
4 1856 uses the above, and says of l;"This
is only one specimen Of many editorials
which meet our reye every day in North
-ern Democratic journals. and not lin few
rapers--not by paper in one or a few
p States, .bu! by all the Democratic i.ur-
nalssih allsthe free States" Yours inclu-
lded, Mr.. Unien! Is not that eisIoyal? Is
not that just what ydu meant last April?
Certainly it is! Tie election of Rcpub-
iicsn President you told the South even
in-1 $50, as we'll as in April last, would
lot be submitted TO! Such loyalty has
raised larniessto drench the hills and val
lies OF this country in blood, by engcn-
defing strife and rtbcllion You did your
simre ofthe necessary wo k to produce
this result uttered your prophetic worus
q in A pfif last, and yet strive, when trait
q ors are afmcd-by thousands 10 overthrow
this Government, to array your party a
gainst the government. or administration,
undtriwsicbI you enjoy the privilege, c,
ven now!i Of attm7t,ng to detract from lis
power, that your declaration before re.
ferrcd to. may be fully vc,itied! +.
Dc, you call Hut loyalty? Ifso. then the
eonclnson is easily reached that enough
oi it is all that is required to destroy the
best government the world has ever
known.

EDITOR UNION.
SIR VIII you do me justice by pub
iiisshhing few facts. SO that an injured and
insui,yd ian may stand in bis true light
before his re:ss''Aors.
In your issue OF the 29lh, Of August,
you published what purpotts tn be re-
cantation OF eleven of the Democrats MY
name being among that number, in tIis
(Marseilles) Township, who signed the
call for a "Union Convention to be held
at Upper Sandusky, August 3lst, 1861.
Now, sir, | never signed any paper
wi hdrawing my name from the Union
CALL" neither did l authorize any person
Sd TO use 1t but on the contrary, l want
it to remain just where I signed it. And
by what right political knave" had to
forge my n anne to paper, expressing my
desire to withdraw my name therefrom,
(except the right of a iorger) is more
Than l can tell, as never was consul ed
in the matter; neither did | know any
thing about it until | saw it in the paper
you sent me. And when 1 expressed my
surprise and indy gnation on seeing it there
| was requested to not make any tuss a
bout it, until certain John M. Cbesney
in town could see me, just as though
had not the right or ability to think for
myself.
Now. Mr.. Editcr. I have been life
long Democrat. and am one yet, and
signed that call without being hood winked
by any political trickster, without hesi.
fancy and with, my eyes wide open, know
ing and understanding the real intent and
objectNof the same. And done SO be-
cause | think the time has arrived when
all loyal American citizens should wash
their hands of all party. And like S. A.
Douglas, l think that he is "traitor and
no patriot who keeps up party strife"

have requested him to forbid the march of anv

with reference to the deplorabe war now wagino

also statng that the same citizens had requested

ing Border States on both sides of the Ohio, pro-
tect kentucky from deplorahle civil war: and
whereas the arms distributed to the State Guard
are not to be used against the Federal or Confed-
crate States, but to resist and prevent encroach-

either OF the belllgerent parties and hoping that
kentucky may become a successful mediator be-

ton or permission of the Legislature and executive

whether Incorporated in the State Guard or other

CAIRO, May l5.-Yesterdav was the first dow or
the blockade of the port of Cairo, and very little
opportunity was afforded for the exercise of the
powers OF embargo. The only arrivals or depar-
lures during the day were the daily Paducah m all

Two shots were fired about three hundred wards

Kentucky shore considerably, and a solicitous
washerwoman, whose clothes were hanging out in
the vicinity, thinking the sand might spot her
clothes, 1t ball did not, fastened out and commen-
cedtaking them in.
The Tom Scott and R. P Cheney continue their
regular trips, and shipments to Columbus or Padu-
can nave not yet been vetoed-the blockade having
oeen ordered, as understood, for the benefit of
States seeded or rebelous; in which view of tho

POWER OF THE R0MPSuErr.

The following note accompanied fragments of
bombshell sent to the editor of the Boston Tran
Scr1pt, as taken from the Citadel of Messina after
its bombardment and capture by the forces of Vic.
tor Emmanuel:
Two pieces of bombshells, which brought from
the Citadel, after the bOmbardment had ceased
The larger piece found in the centre fort and
know nothing remarkable connected with its his
tory. The smaller piece l found in tie fortress
known by the name of Don Blasco. The company
attached to this point were driven to their quar-
ters-a large arched apartment in the basement
BY the first fire OF their enemy.
The shell, of which this small piece is a mart
came in at the corner of window, tearing away
the easement and portion of the wall passed
across the room and entered the opposite wall.
which was OF brick and mortar to the deptb of
thirtY-three inches, where it exploded, tearing
away the whole of the wall upon one side of the
point OF entrance, and leaving half section of the
hole 1t cut still remaining, smooth in the wall into
Whlch L inserted my cane and took the measure
given above with tape measure.
This shell also caused the death of five men as
one OF the company informed me, and taking me
across the apartment. to bench, he directed nv
attention to the blood where the men were laid -
he assured me that no other lives were lost at the
citadel during the bombardment. Looking at the
mass of brick and mortar which this shell scattered
about, it seemed remarkable that out of whole
company in the apartment at the moment only
live should have been killed.
The damage done to the citadek by twelve NOR
tars, and fifty-one rfed cannon, in five hours and
aquarter, is perfectly incredible. Had they kept
up such work for eight and forty hours the whole
institution would | think, have been demolished.
