Till our men and children shout it
From the mountain to the shore.

Letter 10 Gov. maRofTin

In another column we publish a copy of
a letter sent TO Gov Magofin, of Kentucky,
written by u. s. Vail, a Baptist minister near
Bellevue. Although we do not agree with the
writer in some Of the positions he has taken,
the article in the main presents many substan-
tial truths, and is entitled to the respectful con
sderation of the general reader
We do not consider it our duty to set ourseli
upas censor of the ideas and thoughts of those
who write for the public, but are always ready
to publish well written communications when
we can make room for them Nor have we so
poor an opinion Of the intelligence Of the pco-
pie as to suppose them incapable of Judging
between the true and the false, or that they will
become "dishoartoned," and turn traitors to their
country because they may see something Moy
may not approve in newspaper. a few churl-
ish self-conceitcd, uneasy persons devoid of an
over abundance of sense, and whose natural in
clinations are to cause difficulty may growl but
that will not deter us from publishing such artic-
les as we may deem interesting to our readers.

Absurdity of e.InvndIng southern SOUS

Absurdity of 'Invading Southern Soil"
We hear, says the st. Louis Democrat,
very justly, great amount of clamorous in
dignation frcm the Southern press and peo-
pie about the troops in tho service of the
General Government being about to din
wade Southern soil" This is all idle gam
mon. The forces of the General Govern
ment cannot "invade" State. They have
a perfect right to go and come everywhere,
on every foot of soil covered by the juris-
diction of tho Federal Union. The Gencr-
al Government is not an alien nor an intru.
der as to the States. Its sway extends
over them all alike, and its laws, officers and
armies are at home everywhere throughout
the common domain. If it were not so,
there would be no nation and no National
Government
1t is just as absurd to talk Of the Govern
ment troops "invading the South as to
talk of the British troops "invading' Liver
pool, or the French army 'invading" Lam
gaedoc, or the militia of the State of Mis-
souri, "invading" St. Louis county. This
stupid idea of the just and lawful govern
ment of the country committing an "inva-
sion" whenever it sets on foot movement
to execute its laws, could have its birth no.
where but in the maggoty and seditious
brain of a Secessionist.

The following beautiful poem, appearing In Harpefs
Weekly, ia from the pen Of Mrs. Juliette r. Beach;
know the shines, and the lIlaes are blowing,
And Summer sends kisses by beautiful May
Obi to see all tue treasures the Spring is bestowng,
And think-my boy Willie enlisted to-day
It seems but day since at twilight, low humming,
rocked him to sleep with his cheek upon mine,
While Robby the four-yeAr old watched for the coming
Ofhther, adown the streets indistinct line.
Its manya year since my Harry departed,
To come back no more in the twilight or dawn;
And Robby grew weary of watching, and started
Alone, on the journey his father had gone.
1t is many year--and tliis afternoon, sitting
At Robby's old window, / heard the band play,
Aud suddenly ceased dreaming over my knitting
To reeoloct Willie Is twenty to-day;
And that standing beside him this soft Mayday morning
The sun making gold Of his wreathed cigar smoke,
saw In his sweet eyes and lips faint warning,
And ehoted down the tears when he eagerly spoke:
"Dear mother you know how those traitors GROWING
They trample the folds Of our a,g in the DUST
The boys all ere; and they wish were going"
He atopped, but his eyes said, Oh say i'll must"
smiled on the boy though my heart it was breaking.
My eyes filled with tears, so turned them away,
And answered him, "wlc, tits we'll you are waking
Go, act as your father would bid you to-day"
sit in my window and sec the flags flying,
And dreamily list to the roll of tue drum,
And smother the paiu in my heart that is lying,
And bid all my fears in my bosom be dumb
shall sit in the window when Summer IL lying
Out over the fields, and the honey bees hum
Lulls the at the porch from her temuous sghing
And watch for the face ofmy darling to come
And If lie should fall his young life he has given
For Freedoms sweet sake. and for me, will pray
Once more with my Harry and Robby in Heaven.
To meet the dear boy that enlisted to-day.
