CROswELL's VIEWS.
<'Suppose the munitions of war are
within our reach, would we not be guilty
of shameful neglect if we availed not our
selves of the opportunity to use them :
Suppose the enemys slaves were arrayed
against you, would you, from any squean-
ishness. refrain from pointing against them
the hostile gun, and prostrating them in
death ? No; that is your object and pur-
pose: and if you would seize their prop
erty, open their ports, and even destroy
their lives, | ask you whether you would
not use their slaves? Whether you
a0ouid not arm their sLares great APP

against their masters q! Renewed and
tumultuous applause.
Take property wherever you may find 1t.
Take the slave and bestow him upon the
non STAKEHOLDER if you please. Great
applause. Do to them as they would do
tous. Raise up party Of interest against
the absent STAKEHOLDER, distract their coun-
sells, and IF tbs should not be sufficient,
take the stare by tie haad, place u m"sket

is to free the slaves. 1t is to make wal
upon the South for that purpose. 1t Is
to place them above their masters in the
social scale. 1t is to assert the great alb

But to take the slave and make him al

pointed by the utter failure of their effort,

ry They will act 10 conjunction with an ad.
vaucug force from Chambersburg. whose opera.
tons will be against Harper's Ferry. These
advanced Outposts are also intended to cut of
the flying recruits from Baltimore, who attempt
to escape from Gen. Buffers forces.
One thousand troops, under Col. Jones enter.

had, and as we we're inspected by the Major
General the silence was broken By men falling
on every side of us, at first it was thought the

were only sun.struck. The hospital is filed to

among them, but number are sick in their

its all right, but it ia hard nevertheless We are

SATURDAY MORNING. MAY t8. 1861.

BLooD AT ST. LoUIs-St. Louis was the scene
Of some excitement last week, from a little
prompt and decisive action on the part Of the
military force posted there, 10 the management
Of the traitors under Gov jackson. A bout 500
we're in camp and we're surrounded by some
5000 or 5000 federal troops and. notified to
surrender 10 half an hour. These terms, it was
thought discreet to accept The 500 we're
marched OF as prisoners Of war, after having
been stripped of their arms. to the arsenal
where after short confinement they were re
leased on condition of not taking up arms again
against the government.
While passing through the streets the mob
lusulted, pelled with stones, aud fred upon the
soldiery who turned and returned the FIRE kill
log some 20, and wounding others.
On Saturday night, another tragedy took
place. The Home Guard, while marching thro'
she streets, was hooted at and reviled by large
crowd of excited citizens, and finally pistol
shot was cred iuto the ranks by, it is said, a
boy The troops wheeled and fred upon tie
crowd, dschsrging several volleys. Owing TO
lack of discipline, they broke up the ranks
and fred at random, killing and woundiug some
OF their own men, as well as many citizens,
It is estimated that ten thousand persons left

log in some quarters almost entire streets
being deserted.
