TO THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA,

ing TIE army now upon your sol! that
the motives which caused them to take
up arms should be plainly and candid
'ly stated. They have been grossly
misrepresented to you by designing
and inscriptions aspirants who seek
to become rulers on the ruins Of a
great and happy country, and their
intentions have been studiously mis-
stated. We speak in their behalf,
therefore, from sense of justice and
duty and we risk you to hear US calm
y and holeattor to judge US by our
acts.
The troops who fight under the star
spangled banner wage no war Of ag-
erosion. They seek not to Cypress
the weak nor to inAict injury upon
the innocent. They have no desire to
injure private property or interfere
with private business; and when this
is done unavoidably It will be regret
ted by none more than by themselves.
They have come among you toreestab-
lish peace and order, and to recon
struct Government which for more
than three quarters Of century prov
ed to be oil that the people Of the
South as we'll as Of the North desired.
They ask only that the Constitution
framed by our fathers be continued IN
impoired-that all its precepts be held
sacred and that the many blessings
handed down to US by our ancestors be
permitted to descend to our posterity.
They are not unmindful Of the fact
that Virginia and the North, and par
ticularly Pennsylvania, are linked to-
gethcr BY many sacred ties, as well as
by the strongest bonds Of interest.
They are not willing that these sa-
cred tics shall be ruthlessly sundcred
a the bidding Of such men as have
precipitatcd the South into most IN
holy revolution. Can you oensure
them for entertaining such views ?
Can you who boast Of the Old Domini-
on because she was the mother Of
Statesmen, blame US Of the North For
revering the lessons those Statesmen
have taught US? We think not; and
hence we expect to find friends in all

THE VOICE OF WASHINGTON.

In that memorable document, Washing
tons Farewell Address, the following Ian
guage occurs. We ask the people Of
Virginia and of the South to read and
ponder well upon it:
To the efficacy and permaueAcy Of your
Union, Government for the whole is in
dspensble. No alliance, however strict
between the parts, can be an adequate
substitute; they must inevitably experience
the infractions and Interruptions which all
alliances, in all times, have experienced,
Sensible Of this momentous truth, you have
improved upon your first essay, by the
adoption of a Constitution Of Government
better calculated than your former for an
intimate Union, and for the efficacious
management Of your common concerns
This Government, the offspring Of our own
choice, unnAueoced and unawed, adopted
upon full investigation and mature DELHI
GRAFTON, completely free in its principles, in
the distribution Of its powers uniting Sc
curity with energy, and containing within
itself a proyis;9I for its own amendment,
has y just claim to your confidence and
your support Respect for its authority,
compliance with its laws, acquiesceuce in
its measures, are duties enjoined by the
fundamental maxilns of true liberty. The
bases Of our political system, is the right
of the people to make and to alter their
constitutions Of Government: but the
Constitution which at any time exists, till
changed by an explicit and authentic act
Of the whole people, is sacredly obligatory
upon all The very idea of the power and
the right Of tic people to establish Govern
mont, pre- supposes the duty of every indi.
vidual to obey the established Government.

The Star spangled Banner.

Q! say can you see by the davn's early
What SO proudly we hailed at the tvi-
lights last cleaning,
Whose broad Stripes and bright Stars,
through the perilous fight,
Der the ramparts we watched were 50
CALAMITY streaming,
And the rockets red glare, the bombs
bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that OUR
FLAG was still there,
0! say does that Star spangled Banner
yet wave?
Der the land of the free and the home
of the brave.
On the shore dimly through the mis's
of the deep,
Where the foes naughty host in dread 81
lence reposes,
What is that which the breeze Ger the tsv!
ering steep,
As it ftfully blows, half conceals, half dis
closes,
Now it catches the CLEAN, Of the mornings
first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines Oh ths
stream,
Ills the Star Spanglod Banner, 0 long mag
It wave
Der the land of the free and tho home Vt
the brave.
And where is that band who SO vuuntingly
swore
That the havoc Of war,and the battles oen-
fusion,
A home and country should leave us no
more,
Their blood has washed out their foul foot
steps pollution,
No refuge could save, the hireling and slave
from the terror OF flight, or the gloom Of
the grave,
And the Star spanglod Banner, in triumph
shall wave,
Der the land Of the free, and the homo OF
the brave.
o!thus be it ovorvhen freeman shall stand
Between their loved homes, and the wars

Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the hosr-

ship without parallel. lie has been
for some years in Iowa, and has just
turned up fair specimen Of Il Secession
list. The Democracy of his county, as
true patriots, met in convention, and re-
solved to support the Government
against the insane rebellion Of the Sc
cessionists, Byington could not stand
this, and relieves himself in a long
letter, in the course of which he says:
"For the first time in my life, 1 am
compelled to dissent from the resolves
of the Democracy of my county. If |
read Alright the resolutions passed by
our late county convention, our glorious
old party ere therein pledged to an ae-
tive support of the unconstitutional and
aggressive toroy, by which Lincoln,
Seward, Chase Il Co., are about to visit
one half of the Union with fire, sword
and famine. We are modestly invited
to surrender lifelong convictions, and
help to swell the chorus of merciless
partisan war upon our own countrymen,
under the flimsey pretext that the ex-
istence Of the government is endangered.
