IL sortoaI Paralle1--Edgehill ana Ma
nassaS.

In the great rebellion which two cen
turtles ago devastated England, the first
pitched battle between the forces of the
King and the Parliament was fought at
Edgehill on Smday, the 23d Of October,
l641 The city of London, where the
Parliament was then sitting, was in eager
expectation of news of the battle, as 1t was
known that the opposing armies were about
to engage a panic seized both wings of
the Parliament forces, and they fed from
the field declaring that all was lost The
CONSERVATION in London is well described
by Lord Clarendon:
The first news they heard of the armies
being. engaged, was by these who fed upon
the first charge who made marvellous
haste from the place of danger, and tho
not themselves SAFE till they were gotten
out Of any possible distance Of being pur-
sued. It is certain, though it was past
two o clock before the battle begun, many
Of the soldiers, aud some commanders Of
no mean name, were at St. Adams, which
was near thirty miles form the field, be-
fore it was dark.
ss"These men, as all runaways do for their
own excuse, reported all for lost, and the
Kings army to b8 SO terrible that it could
not be encountered Some of them, that
they might not be thought to come away
before there was cause, or whilst there
was any hope, reported the progress of the
battle, and presented all those lamentablo
things, and the circumstances by which
every part Of the army was defeated, which
their terrified fancies had suggested to
them whilst they ran away, 50 that, on
Monday, the whole city was full Of the de-
feat"
We commend this scrap Of English His
tory to Mi Russell and the London Times,
It is proper to add that the same men who
dodso disgracefully from the fsst battle,
afterward, under great leader, proved to
be the most formidable soldiers which Eng
land ever produced

MAJOR ANDERSON 4 TRAITOR.

Sumter has fallen-surrendered, we
fear, by traitor; and that traitor Major
Robert Anderson. This is harsh language; !;
out it is the language of truth demanded
ay what appears TO be the grossest act Of
treason every perpetrated in this or any
other country. The treason of Twigss is
admitted by all to have exceeded that Of
3encdict arnold; but the nsrhes Of both
lrnod and 'rwiggs will sink into insig
nifcsncc-indced. are almost rendered
respectable, when compared with the more
lamning int;.my which from present sp-
pealances must forever attach to that Of
Robert Anderson.
The circumstances of this abominable
treason are SO paIpable and transparent,
that no man who reads them CAN hesitate
in arriving at the conclusion that Andcr.
son arranged with Beaurcgard for The sur.
render Of Sumter, before it was assaulted !;
that the defence was but 4 sham; and that
it WAS deemed important the surrender
should take place before relief could be
afforded by the government fleet, hourly
expected to arrive with troops, provisions
and munitions of war.-New York Couri.

TILE RrBIcoX PASSED.

The spirit which has been manifested
since the assault upon Fort Sumter COM
mcnccd SHOWS that the anomaly We have
too long witnessed, Of peace upon one
side, and war upon the other, will very
speedily be destroyed. Hcncetorth We
shall no longer strive to see how little we
can do to strengthen forts, to maintain
armies, to fit ont fleets, to entore the laws,
and protect the honor of the nation, but
how much. We will no longer seek to
tie the hands of the Government-to Grip.
pie its puwers--to unman and degrade it
to strengthen and encourage treason,
and to dshearten and humiliate loyalty.
The issue is now made up-either this
great Republic or its desperate adverse.
ries must be ovcrlhrown-and may God
defend the right!
Hcnceiorlll each man, high and low.
must take his position as patriot or Il tral
tor--as foe or friend of his country
as u supporter Of the flag OF the stars and
stripes or of the rebel banner. The con.
test which is impending will doubtless be
attended With many horrors, but all the
facts show that it has been forced upon
us as last resort. and war is not the
worst of evils. Since the startling events
of the last five months have becu succeed.
cd BY brutal bomhardncnt of Il fort

Charleston lmrbor. which would have been

thrratcncd to capture Washington, and
even to invade The Northern States, while
u f,rnai declaration of h"slilitics is about
t" be made by the Confederate Congress,
We should be wanting in every element

THE BULLET Us. THE BALLOT.

The " irrepressible conflict" started by
Mr. Seward, and endorsed BY the liepub.
lican party, has ut length attained to its
logical foreseeu result. That conflict, ur-
icrtakrn 'for the sake of humanity >
eliminates now in nhumauity itself, and
exhibits ,he affecting spectacle of brother
shedding brothers blood.
Refusing the ballot, before the bullet,
these men, flushed with the power and
patronage of the Federal Government,
hsve madly rushed into civil war, which
will probably drive the remaining Slave
States into the arms Of the Southern Con-
tederacy, and dash to pieces the last hope
for reconstruction of the Union.
To the gsllant men, who are 80 nobly
defending the flag of their country within
the wall, of Fort Sumter, the nation owes
i debt of eternal gratitude-not less
than to the equally gallant and patriotic
spirits, who, in like obedience to the de-
rnands of duty. are perilIing their lives
and shedding their blood i'll the heroic,
but, as yet, unsuccessful cndesvor to afford
them succor. But, to the coId-blooded,
hcartlcss demagogues, who started this
civil war--themselves magnanilnously
keeping out of the resch of bodily harm
we can only say, you must find your
account, if not at the hands of an indig-
nant people, then in the tears Of widows
snd orphans. The people of the United
States, it must be borne in mind, petition
ed, begged and implored these men, who
are become their accidental masters, to
give them an opportunity to be hesrd, be-
'orc this unnatural strife was pushed to a
bloody extreme, but their petitions were
.ll spurned with contempt, and now the
bullet comes in to decide The issue !-Nep
