The MAN or His Country.

The telegraph brings us the intelIi-
gence that the true patriot, the vencrabl
John j Crittenden, Of Kentucky, has enc
listed as a private, to drive from the
soil OF that state the rebels. God bless
this good old man, now near 20 years of
age, who has devoted his whole energy
for the preservation of this Union
When a few months ago, this great good
man, was lighting the battles OF his coun-
try in the United States Senate, corrupt
politicians were charging him with all
manner of crime and infdelity. Had
his counsels prevailed thon--had his true
union sentiments received the sanction of
the politicians, to-day we would he hap
py and united people but even the defeat
In the U. ). Senate OF this honorable man
this patriot. could not ALLEVIATE him
from the American Union. His failure
to secure its perpetuity by peaccable
means will not prevent him from stan
ding by his country, with musket in
band. He is for the unconditional pres
ervation Of the American Union. and
will settle with its enemys afterwards
The corrupt men North and South will
receive alike the bitter condemnation of
the worthy Crittenden and all true Union
men, when our battles shall have been
fought and our country saved from eter-
nal ruin.
The Chicago Post truly says: "But
Crlttenden's patriotism was not special.
1t was not confined to making speeches,
nor to writing eloquent appeals. His
patriotism was of the heart. IL couId
not premit him, even in his extreme old
age to remain passive when his country
was assailed. 1t knew no neutrality af-
ter the war had commenced. 1t knew
no distinction of north or south, but held
all men friends and brothers who stood
by the constitution and the flag, and all
men enemies who raised hand against
either. His first act was to offer to his
state his son, man full of activity, a
soldier by profession and patriot by in
tuition, and the state accepted the gift,
and the younger Crittenden now com
mands the loyal troops of Kentucky.
And now, we have the crowning act Of
the old mans life.
Quitting his home, leaving the quiet SO
congenal to declining years, he has gone
to the camp, and with musket on his
shoulder, offers himself as volunteer to
defend the Union; offers himself as a
private soldier in the army marching to
repel invasion. All honor to the gallant
old patriot. all honor to the state that
can call Crittenden her sol" n."-Freporf

The People, North and South.

Could the voice of the masses of the
people, North and South, uninfuenced
by office holders, office seekers, army
contractors and wonld be army contrac-
tors, be heard and needed, this unnatur-
al civil war would soon cease. the Con-
stitution would be regarded as the su-
preme law everywhere. and the Union be
held, lika the Ark of the Covenant, too
sacred to bejostied.
1t is one of the most lamcntable effects
of the present state of things, that the
ordinary accommodation between
the two sections of the country is almost
entirely closed. The people are gradu-
ally becoming estranged from, and aliens
to each other. In the South the great
body OF the people know next to nothing
of the actual state offeeling toward them
among the masses at the North; and we
at the North are equally ignorant Of the
true state of feeling at the south.
At the North, desire to have the
Southern people undeceived as to the
real objects aimed at by the Government.
and to see them once more harmonious
ly cooperating with MS in one common
Union, is called "sympathizing with
the Snuth," and is pronounced treason.
In the South, q desire to cooperate with
the Government in the establishment
of the authority of the constitution and
in the preservation of the Union, is stig.
matized as sympathizing with Northern
Abolitionism, and as treason OF the
blacklist dye.
If the Union is to be preserved in, or
restored to its former state as whole, the
North and South must cease to cherish
this m re sectional animosity-the Off
springs of ignorance and prejudice.-
They must device some means to know
each other better, and come to some mu-
tual understanding Of the actual wants
of the people in both sections. Without
this interested parties. who thrive upon
the misfortune of others, will protract
the war interminably.
Peace is wanted-not hasty, patch
ed up, temporary truce; but one that
shall meet the wishes OF the great major
ity in both sections, and be lasting as
human wisdom can make it. Some
timsse indiviuals cannot be made to
know or understand each other, till both
parties are mortally wounded in duel.
We should be sorry to entertain the suspi.
cion that such was the case withtkneo-
pie in the two sections Of 6Ped
country. Statesman

tion, in eastern square, on the Wednesday
night where they received the child as
stated by Catherine Parsons.
Mrs. Andrews related the conversation
she had with the girls as to how the child
had beenitreated at Rugby and stated that
her friend Scott, alias Idle, went with a
man to beer-shcp near the station, and
there received fl6 from him for them to
take the child away She also stated
that when she received the child it was
raped in a shawl, which she afterwards
pledged. Brett had redeemed the shawl
which had been identified by Mrs. Hill.
The officers had also obtained possession
from Mrs. Andrews Of box which Mrs.
Hill also identified as being the one sent
by her with the child, filled with baby
linnen, and it was worthy of mention that
the prisoner had, with the object of still
further destroying identity, cut off all the
marks which had been inserted upon the
infants clothing. Mrs. Andrews further
stated that when the man gave her the
child he told her that the mother wa,
dead, and that he was clerk going tc
travel upon the cotinent, but he gave hel
neither name or address. She did no
believe "all was right" aud ultimately
had the child registered in her nader
name, which was Farebrother. Bret
testified to the truth of that statement
and found an entry in the book of the
register ofSt. Giles to the effect that on
the % day of February, 1859, child five
weeks old had been registered in the name
of Albert Farebrother-th name given
by the prisoner to the woman when she
received the child.
To further prove the identity of the
child Brett went to every house where
Mrs. andrews, had lived in St. Giles from
the time the child left Rugby to the hour
of its recovery, and he found her state
ment true in every particular. He ascer-
tanned that on one occasion, when Mrs
Andrews was sent to prison for begging
the child, with her own, was placed in ST.
Giles workhouse, where it remained un-
til she regained her liberty; when she us
ed it, as before, for the purpose of excl
ting the commiseration of the public on
her begging expeditions. Scott alias
Idle, had been sent to prison, and cor
roborated all the features Of the case as
detailed by Andrews, alias Farebrother
Upon its recovery, the child was restored
to its mother, who, it is scarcely necessa-
ry to state, received it with unbounded
expressions of JOY and affection. Un-
fortunately. owing to the neglect from
starvation and cold, it had to be placed
under the care OF eminent medical men
and its ultimate recovery was by no
means certain.
The facts having been established O
warrant was issued for Hills arrest
He was absent from England at the time
but his wife feigning desire for recon
Citation, appointed place in Londor
where he was to meet her. He came il
disguise and was arrested, and subsequent
held to answer for having caused to b
made false registration of his child
birth.

The slaves for the Confederacy

Mr.. Robert Morgan, of this city, just
returned from Memphis, among other
things of interest from the Southern re-
region, reports that the slaves are deeply
interested in the struggle now going on
between the two sections, but that their
sympathies are wholly with the South
More confidence is placed in them than ev-
er before, and no fears of insurrection are
entertained. This is different story
from that told by several who have come
among MS, and who appear to speak with
great sincerity upon the subject and yet
there is'no reason to doubt the veracity
of Mr.. Morgan, nor to disbelieve his
statements.
The truth is, the poor down trodden
slave of the South does not pity himself
half so much as his dear friends here in
the North pity bin; and that-upon the
standard of his own feelings-the greater
share OF the sighs and tears that are ex-
pended over his forlorn and desolate con-
ditian are so much sympathetic wind and
water thrown away.
The colored population OF this city are
by no means, unanimous upon the ques-
ton at issue, still sympathisiug with their
old masters or fathers in the South. and
entertaining feelings anything but com
plimentary toward the "white trash"
that in their view of the case, make up
our soldiery.-Cin. press, { Rep.)

The Administration has adopted
method by which an exchange of priso-
ners can be effected, if the rebels choose.
1t cannot, of course, recognize them, in
any way, as legim ate beligerents, but as
fast as they release any of our unfortu-
nate men. a CORES ponding number of
theirs will be released by our government.
Some forty or fifty wounded men having
been recently returned from Richmond
te Fortress Monroe, orders have been is
sued to Col. Loomis, of New York city,
to return in the same way some forty or
fifty of the incarcerated traitors. This
is tender which, ifthe rebels have hu-
manity enough 10 regard it, will restore
the captives of both sides to their friends
and homes.
