DIVISIONS IN DISTINGUISHED FAMrL1Es.-Col Rich
ard Taylor, the son of ex-Presldsnt Taylor, holds
an important commission in the Confederate Army
Col TAYLOR, the brother of ex-Presdent Taylor, is
in active service in the Lincoln Army.
Col. George b. Crttenden. (son Of John j. Crit
tendcn of Kentucky,) is in the service of the Con-
federate States and his brother, Col. Thomas L.
Crittenden, is commander in the Lincoln Army
They are probably destined to service in the same
State, under opposite banners.
Col Philip St. George Cooke retains his position
in the Northern Army, and the Washington Star
says he will be assigned to duty in Virginia IN the
very locality of his birth. The same paper says
that one of his and TWO sonsinlaw are soldiers
in the Southern Army. To which We may add, the
nepbews of Col Cooke and his relatives, without
exception, so far as we are advised, are true and
faithful to tho land of their birth. John Esten
Cooke, IA nephew of Col. Cooke, the well known
Virginia author exchanged the pen of the novelist,
the historian, and the bographer at the beginning
of the war for the musket of the Confederate soldier
COL Anderson, of Sumter notoriety, married o
Southern lady, whose brothers, several in number
are all in the Confederate service
These are some of the family differences produc-
ed by the changed relations between The North and
the South. 1t needs prophet to foretel that the
present position of the Lncolnites of Southern birth
will DO subject Of annoyance In future to them.

So much for Dr. Breckenridge when he writes as

sermon lately preached by him to the Lincoln
soldiers at Camp Dick Robinson, in Kentucky
Can he be the same man, or has he, under the
binding influence of Lincolnisln, become maniac?
In that sermon it is said he made perbatim the fol-
lowing declarations: f
II have never believed in the doctrine Of Purga-
tory and have all my life fought against it; among
other reasons | have declared that in the whole
grand sweep of Gods moral government, would
find no place to locate it and if place could be
found saw no necessity for it. with the full pro-
visions for redemption made in the RedcelAer Christ.
But if there ever was a time when such place was
needed, it is now, for a man occupying the stand
point which do the conclusion forces ITSELF unbld-
den albeit upon the mind, that there are many men
who deserve not to be saved, and are not worth
claiming. Such are that class Of Kentucklans who
would still wish to remain neutral when our State
has been invaded by marauding soldery from Ten

petuity of the country and the putting down OF the

THERE SHOULD BE NO STEIFE-At time like the
present when the minds Of eur people are intensely
concentrated upon our grand alm-when the saliva
ton of great people is eopardized and their exis
tence depends upon their own strong arms and I'M
conqucrabie hearts, true patriot will not fail to
frown down every effort to revive the old party ines,
or to kindle the dying enbers party strife. The
sacred cause in which we are now engaged rises
sublimcy above all parties, and the noxious weeds
of rivalry should be crushed as more fatal than the
poisonous Upas of Java.
1t is refreshing to us to find our views on this
subject endorsed by who was among the first to
raise his powerful voice in solemn warning to the
South, urging her to be ready for the storm that
was looming over US. One who has for long series
of years stood atfooted upon the State Rights plat
formed and boldly advocated secession wheneverth the
Government should fall into the hands of our enc
mics. The following true and patriotic sentiment
We find in a private letter written by gallant
Brown to friend in this city, by whose kind per-
mission we extract it. The letter is dated "In
Camp, near Leesburg, Va, October 1st."
"Opponents before the war in peaceful strife for
ascendancy in politics. the war has forced into
all their hands, thrown one flag over their heads,
and marked out for them a common destiny. Under
such circumstances it is duty SO clear as to make
elucdation needless that all past differences should
be aid aside, not in theory but in fact and that the
most cordial brotherhood should be habitually cher
ished and practiced This cannot be, if the old and
dominant States Right party does not make fair
division of honors with their former opponents and
present allies"
This coming from the source it does, is at once
manly and magnanimous 1t is worthy of him who
utters it. and deserves and will receive the applause
of all our people. twill be gratifying to Gov.
Brown to learn that the Oppostionsts in this State,
as we'll as the Democrats to a man IN favor of
electrg him to the Confederate Senate.-Nississip-
