Lovejoy and the Republicans who were
50 thirsty for Southern blood few months
ago, since there has occurred an opportun
ity for them to slake their thirst by volup-
tering in the army, have been seized with
terrible weakness in the knees. Indeed.
we do not know of single follower of
Lovejoy, from Ichabod Codding down to
the editor of the True Democrat, who has
had the courage to volunteer. They made
great hurra about the war and seemed
to be be wonderful glad that it had com
menced but were very careful to stand aside
when Democrats and conservative Repub-
licans were rushing forward to fill rp the
ranks. The Lovejoy men seem to live up
to the Republican Automobiles for Re-
publicans-knap sacks for Democrats.

LYNCH LAW IN WILHINGToN.-A man
by the name of Charles Byrne, peaceble
and quiet citizen, was taken from his bed
few nights ago, by dozen or fifteen
men, and rope fastened to his neck and
hanged to the limb Of a tree till life was
nearly extinct. TIE alleged excuse for the
outrage was, that Byrne had harbored
horse thief who had escaped from Will
mington few days previous. Byrne, it j.
said, is entirely innocent of the charge
and his treatment is therefore more aggre-
Waiting. In any event, the outrage is ut
terly iDexeusable. This mob spirit must
be di'countsnanced. If it be allowed to 20
on. there will DO no protection to life and

Now we call upon our neighbor to.rro-

son. The fact that he opposes Lincoln's
war policy d.n't make him traitor. The
fact that he believesthe war is disupion, a
final separation" of the States, does not
make him traitor either. Let the True

LAsr night, the weather. which had pre-
viously been uneomfortably cold, suddenly
noderated; and the clouds soon gathered
and commenced bcsprinkling the earth with
QUO of those clothes piercing, chill-bringing,
suicide-tempting, misty rains, which occa-
sionaly come, like a mildew, eating into the
heart of our happiness, and making all the
world smell earthly, and look as il, robed in
its gravc-clothcs, it were just ready to he de-
posted in the new-made grave. Nobody
can have the mind TO think or the heart to
be happy, amid such general gloom, when
Mattress self seems to be moved to wretch
cdncss, and to be trembling and weeping, in
hysterical, sobbing, responding mood,
like poor mortal. whose, last hold upon life,
love and happiness has been rpdely broken,
by the hand of Death laid unpityingly upon
the loved one whose affection was the sole
sunshine of his being. Bat even amid the
deepest darkness, even in the midst of des-
pair, the soul stretches forth its tcndrIs to-
wards the sunshine; and so we hope soon to
see the clouds clear away, and smiling sky
beam brightly down upon us once more.
