Not by the manhood alone of the nation
has this call been answered for everywhere
scattered over the loyal States are to be
found their wives, daughters and sisters Of
| fering their services as nurses, or otherwise,
as needed. They, too, are exhibiting to the
world that they have not degenerated from
their mothers-"the Natrons of the Revolu-
ton
With US 1t remains to decide the momen-
tous question, whether we shall suffer this
Government TO be overthrow, thereby 20
become hiss and reproach' with the ma
tons OF the earth-or, TO sustain IT and its in
stitutions, as bequeathed to US by the fathers
and founders of the Republic. There can
be but one answer, and that is, that it will be
sustained. The united voice of eighteen mil
lions of free people, heard within the past six
weeks, clearly proves that the spirit Of &c,
which animated the souls of the fathers of
that day, is again, at this day, quickened and
burns anew in the hearts of their sons and
daughters.
Let it not be recorded by the future histo-
rian, that in the year of our Lord, 1861, this
nation-the last hope of the world-was
blotted out and from her ruins were form
ed many petty Kingdoms, warning continual
ly upon one another; but rather, that in this
year a dangerous rebellion was thoroughly
and completely quelIed by the true lovers Of
the race.
Let US then, fellow couatrymen, by the
memories Of those noble and brave men that
have already persisted for their country and
truth-as We value our rights, and desire
that our institutions may be transmitted to
future generations, more virtuous and exalt-
ed than now-let Us rally round the old
standard, and marching on to defend our be-
loved country, swear for her TO liye-with
her to die"

UNION AND LIBERTY.

COrTest OUlSlce OF the Herald.
WILL, Illinois, May, 1851.
If there has been a doubt entertained that
the spirit of old - had died out in the
hearts OF the great mass Of the people, from
their seeming lack ofenergy and irresolution
in witnessing the rebellion in the South, it
must have been far removed by the nobIe re-
spouse of the whole people OF the loyal
States to the Presidents call for troops. The
murnurings, the discontents. and the threats
of the Slave-Power. which have been agita-
ting the nation for more than thirty wears,
has at last burst forth, aaj i is now pouring
out all its venom Of hatred. not only in words,
but IN actions against the Government.
Civil war is now upon Us as a nation and
while this is to be deplored in any nation,
yet will not be without its great lessons
These times will reveal the true characters Of
men. There can be no neutral ground. He
that is not for me is against me-" will be
found as true in the political. a, in the
christian world.
Patriotism tor many years has been mere
" nominal with the masses-but this crisis
will again kindle the latent spark INTO new
life and vigor.
While the older and Eastern States have
responded molly to their countrys call for
aid the young and growing West has not
been behind IN expressing her devotion to
the Stars and Stripes Of the old time-honor-
ed flag.
Here are congregated the representatives
of many European countries. The Germans.
the English and the Irish have sought a re-
fuge here, in this Land OF the free, and home
of the brave :" and now as this attempt is
made to revoIutionize the Government by
few base, lgnoble traitors to their country,
and the sworn enemies of all that is good, or
worthy in the race-they, too, have
responded as one man, 70 rally around the
banner of their adopted country, and vie
with each other, and the native born Ameri-
cans, in showing their devotion to the Union,
the Constitution and the laws.

NEW HAVEN CORRESPONDENCE.
New HAVEN, VT. June ,. 1851.


For few days past the patriotism of our
citizens has been exhibiting itself in the work
OF organizing an Independent Company. At
the call OF those who had recorded their names
upon the roll, meeting was held la i even
ing in the Town Hall for the election of Off
GERS.
Open doors and the sound Of martial music
in the village brought the citizens together IN
naSse. The meeting was organized by the
appointment OF Henry O. Clifford moderator,
and B. T. Livermore clerk. p atrlotic
speeches were then made by various itizens,
which were warmly received.
The company then organized by the ap-
pointment of the following officers
