COMPROMISE.
One or two reasonable sheets in this city,
which have chattered abou; compromises.
gre now doing their best TO prove that some
cae has taken notice az their folly and fears
thai a compromise may ne had. The trick
Is obvious and the faulty final No one,
North or South, desires compromise, un-
less !: be timid Union men who nave been
ewspt into the ranks Of TRAITORS at the South,
and traitors, who pretend TO be Union men,
at tie North. They compelled the loyal
North 10 accept the arbitrament of the
sword. Tho loyal North forhore and was
divided until Sumter fell and ,hen address
sed itself to ,he task which once begun,
made compromise impossible
What is there to compromise What
middle term between law-abiiing aud law
breaking? Formerly there were political
differences and ,hen compromises we're not

What compromise is nossible here? VIII
tha! precious Fair of twins, the Journal of
Commerce aid the Daily News, have the
frankness 20 state what there is to be COM

rebel and his cause a revolution, and he
knows not, no- does any one know, the
middle term between revolution and the en-
forcement Of the law of the land. Revolu-
tions are sGccessfCl or thoy are not. If sue
cesslul the government submits, but does
net compromise. If the revolution is put
down, aud it will be, the nation NAV be leni-

The KEBF,.s ST RICHMOND A corresuoud
.1t Of the PtiIadephia Inquirer writes from
Baltimore as fellows
lam told, on good authority, that a mer-
chant in this citt has received late letter
from his correspondent in Richmond, which
significantly indicates that the people OF
that city are heartily sick, not only of Sc
cessIon ana its sorrowful fruits, but Of the
war. It is also asserted, if President Davis
and his army do not meet with better suc-
cess than they did at Bull Run and Mauas-
sas, counter feeling will manifest itself
among the people, by no means encouraging
TO the rebel President and the cause he has
cspoased. The slaughter of the Confed..
rates is represented as terrible, much greater
than intimated by accounts in the newspn-
rers. The truth regarding the killed and
wounded is suppressed, as far as there is any
possibility of doing SC. When the whole
story Of Manassas is told, 4 ever, it will
prove astounding. Great distress prevails
among the Soutnera troops. Fhey are not
