The Petticoat Traitors.

Occasional writes to the Philadelphia
Press of the Washington traitoresses, as
follows
The ladies of the Seceders of this yicin
age have been enjoying themselves hugely
since the beginning of our national trOub-
les. L have told you how industrious and
ingenious some of these dear creatures have
been. l heard one of them, a few weeks
ago, publicly expressing her wish that our
troops might be poisoned, or that, on their
way hither, they might be thrown into the
Susquehanna as they were crossing that
river. When we consider what a scanda-
Hous mission that of Secession is, we may
well feel surprised to see it approved by
dear woman What its attractions are
to them am not magician enough to de-
wise. L accept the fact as it is, without
furnishing motives or investigating causes
Some of these fair sympathizers are distin-
guished in their way. Miss Mary Windle
who was coptiUated few days ago, (hav-
ing failed for some thirty years in captiva-
ting anybody else,) and who is now held
as prisoner, has been violent advocate
of the traitors She is a maiden of uncer-
tain years and autumnal appearance
writer of pOetry-addicted to newspaper
-apd hotel society," sort of virgin Jenkins,
a kind of Mrs Joe Gargery, always out
'on sort of rampage on various pretcn-
ces. Mary supposed that as her talents
had been rejected here, she might find a
oetter market for them elsewhere, and SO
she offered them to Davis in the capacity
of clandestine correspondent and caves
dropper. She boasts of her arrest, and
seems desirous of the notoriety she has ac-
.quired.
Mrs. Greenhow is another of these lady
friends of treason-in person of far more
ability than the masculine Miss Fribble
above referred to. She has been one of
the queens Of our F. F. VS.. and delight
ed in being one of the leaders of fashion
and society hereaways A long time en-
gagged in this business, she has undoubted-
ly been Of great service to the public ene-
my. Like Miss Windle. she glories in
Der martyrdom, and will doubtless look
forward to being duly commissioned as one
of the saints IN the rebel calendar. hear
that others of these sweet daughters of Eve
are to follow this twain. The lady of an
ex-United States Senator is freely men,
toned as the next on the list, and hear
the wife of one of our leading merchants
discussed as a candidate for the attentions
of the provost marshal Is it offending
the sanetities to write of these things? Is
our regard for woman to prevent US from
exposing and checking them when they be-
come the emissaries of great and unpar-
allied tyranny?-When their husbands,
and fathers, and brothers, run off to enlist
in the traitors army they leave behind
these tender partners of their former homes;
and if these latter become agents of dis
cord and mediums Of trcachery the law
must take its course,

Making the Issue.

A day or two before the Kentucky elec-
ton. the Paducah Herald. strong Sc
cession organ in that State. said:
LET us make the 6ght for the Lsgisla-
ture. Let it be done upon the fair issue
Of secession or no secession-to remain
with the abolition North or join the South
to remain q slave State or abolish slave
~. Let US be honest. We all mean Sc
cessiOn- Magofin means it; Breckinridge
means it; Powell means it we all mean
it Then why not say so, and come out
and advocate it openly and honestly T.
We hope the Herald is satisfied with
the response of the people.

OUR BANNER.

Who said that the stars on our banner wer
dim
That their glory had faded sway?
Look up and behold how bright through eac
fold,
They are flashing and smiling to-day.
A few wandering meteors only have paled-
They shot from their places on high;
But the fired and the true still illumine tn
blue,
And will. while whole ages go byi
Who said the fair temple, SO patiently reared
By heroes, at Liberty's call,
Was built insecure-that it could not endure
And was tottering cen now to its fall2
False, false, every word-for that fame is up
held
By the stoutest of hearts and of hands;
Some columns unsound may have gone to the
ground,
But proudly the temple yet stands
Who says there are murmurs of grief in our
midst,
While loved ones are leaving to-day?
Ali no-'tis not so-every heart stills its woe
Aud gives them God speed" on their way;
With their blnner above loving glaneei
around,
And blessings and prayers as a shield;
We will trust this bright band, the fair flower
of our land,
To the perilous ris Ks of the field
Who said the good name of our country was
gone
That her flag would be honored no more?
Over valley and plain, over mountain and main
Rolls an answer like Thunder's deep roar
a million brave spirits all shout with one voice,
"We will die for the rights We demandl
Let traitors beware-by their dark plots we
That no shadow shall rest on our landp'
Who question the promise-not we who behold
This love and this national pride
Sweeping through the cline, in a torrent
sublime
And bearing all hearts on its tide.
Who fears for the issue? All. that must be left
To the mightiest leader of all;
While He holds tho scale, Truth and Right
will prevail,
And Error and Treason will fall.
A stain on our bannerf OH shame to the heart
Or the lip that could breathe such thought
Every hue is as clear. every fold is as dear,
As when first the bright symbol was bought
With the blood of brave men it was purchased,
and we
Pledge our own lives to keep it unstained;
On the land or the sea. where'er it may be,
Its honor shall still be maintained
Heavens blessings upon it, Its stars never
shone
With lustre so pure and so warm;
Like beaeOn's calm ray. pointing out the safe
way,
They CLEAN through this gathering storm.
Their heart cheering light led our fathers Alright
Through all the dark perils they knew;
The same magic glow shall lead US to the foe,
Andguide US to Victory, tool

Who Planned the Battle Of Bull Run?
The Richmond Examiner SAYS: /:


1t is universally conceded that, but for
the opportune junction of the two COM
mands Of johnson and Beauregard at
Manassas. the result of the late battle
would have been at least apocryphal-
Hence to the brain that conceived the
union of these forces is due, in great
degree. the chief credit Of the day. Well
founded information ascribes this happy
conception to the military sagacity Of Gen.
Beauregard Perceiving that it was quite
impossible for his limited command to sue
cessfully oppose the advance Of McDoHelrs
overwhelming columns, he, early in the
week, telegraphed both to the President
and General Johnston, urging the union of
forces as an absolute necessity. After
some reflection, both of these eminent nil
itary men acceded to the suggestion, and
the junction was effected as rapidly as cir
cumstances permitted.
On arriving at Manassas. Gen. johns
ton, being the ranking officer, assumed
command, not, however, without ratifying
the whole plan of battle prepared by Gen.
Beauregard. and chivalrously assigned to
him its execution through the day. Thsse
orders of battle were confdentially dis
tributed 70 each of the regimental CON-
manders; ard were drawn up with great
elaboration and completeness, and are es-
teemed masterpiece Of elegant and pre-
else composition.
