meadows, they next attack the young corn,
tho wheat, aud even clean the weeds before
them. And it Is even difficult In some places
to keep them ont Of the houses. This is no
short Of full description OF their proceed
ings.
They made their appearance about the las!
DAYS Of April, in the meadows and grassy yards
and p1ats.' Tho cold weather and Backward
eprjng favored their growth and increase, for
they dread tho hot sun. Having eaten out the
meadows, and warm weathez coming On, they
began to traye1 from field to field, in some
places causing the roads to appear as . black
moving mass. The hogs would deEour until
sxtiated, and then lying down to- rest, would
instantly be covered with tho wozms-
DitchIng against them appears to be the
most etIectual method Of Hardi1g of their

u Wilson's Zouaves.

One "Billy Wilson" of New York, who is
we suppose, one of the most intense rascals in
that rascally city, has formed regiment Of Zou-
ayes, from the scum of the population. A
Black Republican correspondent of Black Re-
publican Journal writing from New York, says
that "Blly" offered the following wager, to a
gentleman with whom he was conversing about
his men:-"Fll just bet you five hundred dol
lars, that in twenty -four hours after leave, the
people will tell you there is not thief pick
pocket, or burglar left in the city of New York "
We find no difficulty in believing that Billy"
appreciates the character Of the men who com
pose his regiment and that they are, as he rep
rescnts them to be, flock Of gallows-birds,
who are familiar with every phase of crime.
We think, however, that he is mistaken In sup
posing that he will take with him, In single
regiment the entire "stock" Of thieves who
have their homes in New York. Our own opn-
lon is, and has been for years past, that an army
of hundred thousand men, composed exclu-
sive,y of thieves, might be sent forth from that
single city, and that supcrabundant supply of
them would still remain behind. '

False Pretences.

We'ca scarcely take up a Northern newspa'
per without lighting at once upon-a falsehood.
Even "the Father of Lies" might accomplish
himself in Inendacity, by taking lessons from
Greeley, Bennett Raymond Co. Knowing
that the Confederate States desired and sought
peace and that our Commissioners were repulsed
by Lincoln, the abolition Journals grayely assure
their readers that we have commenced the war.
Knowing too, that we only ask to be let alone,
they falsely affirm that we are contemplating
their subjectionl They pretend, also, that they
are going to fight in defence of "the great prfn-
ciplc of self government" They know better
They do not intend to fire single shot in de-
fence of that principle. On the contrary, they
seek to impose upon us, by force Of arms, a
government of their own, which they know to
be abhorrent to every man, woman and child
among us. We have asserted the right to gov
ern ourselves, in our own way and the present
war is waged against us in fragrant opposition
to that right "

Col. J. F. Cushman's Speech.

This gentleman, on Saturday last, addressed
large and respectable audience of his fellow
citizens at the Court House in Oxford, pursuant
to their invitation. Our form" was so nearly
made up when he spoke that we have room for
only a brief outline of his remarks, which were
received with marked attention by the audience
lie knew, he said, that he was not invited to
speak because it was supposed that any neces-
sity for speaking now existed, but becatIsc his
old friends desired to pay him personal COM
pliment. left you, he continued, nearly two
years ago, peaceful, prosperous and happy. |

passed, few days since, through New York,
and saw that the whole city Was one great en-
campment, and heard the boast, from the lips of
Gen. Wool, that they were about to send down
a million of men to subdut us. / must confess
that was, not exactly afraid, but little Tin
easy lest the South might not be able promptly
to meet and repel the immense force that was
preparing to operate against her; but when I
passed through Kentucky and Tennessee, and
saw that the fires of independence were every
where blazing throughout those gallant States,
and when reached Mississippi and found that
our people were united, resolved, and prepared,
| took heart, and now feel that we arc safe in
our own strength. have recently been in
France and in England, and believe that in
France we shall find our best and most efficient
friend England is our enemy. We should
send our cotton to France, and thus make it her
interest to cultivate our friendship. She has
none of the English prejudice against slavery.
England takes her impressions of us and of our
institutions from the lying prints of the Eastern
cities, and moreover she fears that, if we scpa-
rate from the North, Canada will be lost to her.
BY playing off France against England, we can
humble the pride of the British Lion, and, if
need be, we may even be able to obtain the aid
of France in our defence against the North. We
must now forget parties and party names, and
stand together, as one man, in the defence of
our rights and liberties which are assaed by
the tyrant at Washington. 1t is said that the
bloody Domitian, when he sent men to be de-
vuured by wild beasts in the areha, would often
shed tears; and Lincoln, in like manner, while
he is devoting the South to all the horrors of a
desolating war; pretends to talk Of his regard
for the principles of humanity, his desire for
peace, and his aversion to the shedding of blood!
We must meet him in arms, or we shall be

A New Way to Pay Old Debts.

The following official order has been directed
to the accounting officers of the U. S. Govern.
ment at Washington:
"The amounts found to be due resigned Off
GERS from the States which claim to have Sc
coded, will be paid them from the United States
funds heretofore sent to, or deposited in, those
States By order: L. THOMAS,
Adjutant-G General"
The "old concern" at Washington is Justly
indebted to large numbers of officers of the
Army and Navy, for arrears Of pay. Those
officers have been in the service of the United
States, and are entitled, by law, to their regular
compensation. They have a right, moreover
to resign their commissions, for cause or with
out cause, without in anywise impairing the
validity of their claims for past services. Be-
cause they now choose to exercise that right,
of their own people, Abraham Lincoln, who has
taken an oath to stake care that the laws be
faithfully executed" blackens his soul with the
guilt of perjury, by setting aside those laws
which require him to pay the officers who have
resigned. There is no justification or apology
for his infamous order, even upon his own view
of the existing state of things. Admit for the
argument, that the seeded States are yet in the
Union, and that those who have appropriated
the Federal t-c:s Geo.. . SITE thieves
and robbers; still, he is bound to pay the debts
of the Government with money! and not with
orders upon thieves. If burglars should break
into the Sub Treasury in New York, and rob its
vaults of the millions that are deposited there,
can Mr.. Lincoln be required to receive his salary
in an order upon those rogues? IF d vessel,
with Government money on board, sheuld be
sunk in mid ocean, would Mr.. Lincoln "pay"
himself with an order on the monsters of the
deep? The truth is, that Abe Lincoln does not
intend to pay the resigned officers at ALL He is
seeking to bride them to remain in his service
as cut.throats Or, falling in this object, he is re-
solved to wreak his magnity upon them by
Withholding from them the money which it is
his sworn duty to pay them. Let the perurcd
wretch go forward in his career of infamy. alt
is already proved that he is an arrant knavc
and it will go near to be thought SO presently"
