The RIGHT TALK.-The illustrious Ten
nessee patriot, Andrew Johnson, recently
made a speech in Cincinnati, in which he
said
| intend TO fight 10 defense Of this Gov
ernment as long as life shall last. 1t is
wrong to destroy the best Government ever
devised for the use of man. would rather
see this continent swept back into a howl
ing wilderness, than to see a monarchy
planted on the ruins Of this republic. /
would rather see this race swept out Of ex
istence than that the sun should set forever
in darkness upon mans hope for self gov
ernment The fall of this Government
would be to the world an argument that
mans capability of self government was at
all end, which lies al the foundation of our
noble structure. Now s the time to estab.
lish the truth of what we hold to be true.
What if our flag has been traied in The dust
and sullied; let it be now placed 10 stall
wart hands; baptize ii in the SUMS fire, and
bathing it in nations blood, establish its
reputation on firmer basis than ever be-
fore-never surre1dcr.

STATE AND NATIONAL ALLEGIANCE.-The
following report of decision in Court
of South Carolina, in foot note on the
sixth page Of the second volume of Kcnts
Commentaries, shows how far the Palmetto
State, in seceeding from the Confederacy,
has departed from the judicial authority Of
her own tribunals:
'In the case Of the State VS.. Hunt, in
South Carolina, in 1885, q Hill'sS. Z. Rep,
l.) the subject of allegiance, aud TO whom
due under the Constitution of the United
States, was profoundly discussed, and 1t
was declared by majority OF the Court of
Appeals that the citizen owed allegiance to
the United States, and unfortunately TO the
State uuder which he lived; that allegiance
was not now used in the feudal sense. ari-
sing out of the doctrine OF tenure, and that
he owed allegiance to both Governments,
to the constitutional powers existing in
each. The Court held that an oath pre-
scribed by an act of The Legislature of De-
cember, 1888, to be taken by every militia
officer, that he shonld faithful aud true al
legiance bear 10 the State of South Caroli-
na, was unconstitutional and void, as being
lhCOuciSbCub WIN TIC VI bHS Il Gu
eral Government. The Court consequently
condemned the ordinance of the Convention
of South Carolina of November, 1882, as
containing unsOund and heretical doctrine,
when he declared that the allegiance of the
citizen was due to the State, and obedience
only, and not allegiance, could be due to
any other delegated power"
Notwithstanding this authority, there are
lawyers, or apologies for lawyers, as well
as n-prOfessional men. who hold thai q
State has right to secede from the Union
as often as it may please it SO to do. These
men out-Herod Herod. and regard seces
sion or rebellion as q sort of right or pas
time and frolc, to which all ought to cub

AFFAIRS AT WAmNGTON.-No one but
General Mcclellan knows how long this
condition is to last. He has several times
recOnnOitered the rebel movement, and
other Generals have suggested TO him the
Importance Of driving them of before they
are so strong as TO make the attack bloody
affair. To which The Commander-in- Chief
replies that be sees things here and else
where. and shall not strike until he 10 pre-
pared. have said in previous letters that
MunsOn's Hill lie not near enough TO bother
us greatly, except az base for the enemy's
advances. If Mcclellan chooses to carry
1t, it will be because any brilliant little at.
fair adds to our prestige. and not because
he wishes to extend his lines. Our Potomac
length of forts, lunettes. and breastwOrks
is the most complete defense ever cOpetruc-
ted in single season, and, why should we
advance from it TO weaker positions, until
the army is ready for grand forward move
ment? think our greatest surety of future
success lies 10 the determination not 10 fail.
which our new commander has avOwed TO
bis friends. From the latter, gather that
he is entirely sensible of the risks which
wed the great honor of bis elevation; that
he knows failure would iuvOle his fall be-
yOnd redemption; that the bitterness of his
ruin would be prOportioned TO the swiftness
of bis rise, and that he has mVde covenant
with himself that the extreme of human
certainty, shall prelude and attend bis ev-
cry movement. These facts, said 10 be de.
rived from bic own lips, mention inciden.
tally ,as Munson's Hill is hardly a sufficiently
important text for 80 interesting state
ment. If the enemy attack us before we
resume the offensive, the General must, Of
course, adapt himself to the contingency as
best he may Washington Correspondence

SICKNESS IN TUE CONFEDERATE Army
A Richmond correspondent of the Mont
gomery Advertiser writes as follows;
The health of our army is not very good
at present, and ] ain sorry 10 cay that the
fatality among the sick has been great.
The Central care Of yesterday brought
down $50 sick soldiers, but the majority Of
them were suffering from slight diseases.
like meAsels aud severe colds. The hosp.
tails 10 the city are filed to oyerHuwing.
aud every building suitable for the sick
is being fitted up for them. Scarcely day
passes without bringing number of sick
from Manassas and The other camps in the
State. The necessity for hospitals, and
the increase of the medical staff ia very
great, and am glad to see the people im-
pressed with the danger of crowding too
many sick ia one building.
1t Is now proposed TO establish branch
hospitals at some of the mineral springs,
with which this region abounds,. where the,
wounded and suffering soldiers can have
the benefit of pure air, good water, and
careful attendance. In addition TO our
own. we have over 500 wounded Yankees,
who are dependent upon the charities OF
euC pSOplS W plONluC iOt bHCH Whhtbs lDc
effect of the extremely hot weather has
been very serious upon our wounded men
at Manassas, who, weakened by the suppur-
ating process, are unable to stand the ener-
vating influence of the climate. The cool
nights also begin to have an effect upon
those from the South, aud there are many
cases Of intermttant and remittant fever
now under treatment.
Winter will soon come, and we must be
prepared to meet much suffering and many
Lardships. Let the people at home do their
best to provide warm winter clothing, blank
cts, socks, underclOthes, and strong shoes,
so they can he ready when needed. Few
persons in Alabama, who have never been
so far North, realize the peculiar influences
this climate has upon one from the South,
accustomed to an equable temperature
greater portion of the year.
