THE GID FIRE,

Who can doubt that the old fire Of the
old Revolution still burns in the hearts of
the people? From Maine to Minnesota,
the Bons Of 78are rising aa one & man, With
a prayer to the God Of battles On their lips,
and clear eye on the barrels Of their
rifles. The changers Of money have for
gotten their calling, and opened their cof-
fers 10 their countfy's call, The bulls and
bears of Wall street have ceased worryirs
each other, and all fallen to worrying the
enemies Of their flag. Political parties
hive vanished in the tw1nE1ing Of an eye.
Miracles arc wrought every hour, and yet
we have ceased to be astonished. Pre-
qat770 Is or every lip. The Stars and
stripes hoat on every corner, and in every
eye. The hatred Of treason burns deep in
every heart. America is safe in the hands
OF her mighty people Thank God for
giving us Constitution and q government
which makes such MEN!
The traitors and ingrates have ,Rneered
their last at the PurKans. They have
called us psalm singing towards the last
time for one century. They have sworn
TINT Yankee would sell his soul twenty
times for twenty dollars-they swear it no
more. They have boosted their ability to
drive Us, one man for five, On any field, in
any Kind Of fight. They boast it no more
forever, They are now going to meet the
desplsed and insulted Northerners where
blood will flow. and blood will teM Let
us see who will be the last in putting the
harness of. History shows not the page
where the hated. Puritans turned their
backs on the foe. 1t is recorded of them
that they always rejoieed greatly when
they beheld the enemy. It is recorded that
they cleared England Of traitors and the
Netherlands Of spaniards. 1t is recorded
that they delivered New England and New
York ofred- coats, and sent Rhode Island
blacksmith 10 deliver South Carolina of
tories, 1t lis recorded that they fear God,
but fear no -mau---that they endure much
for the sake of peaeeand good will towards
all the world, but that when their minds
are made up, their prayers offered, to the
Almighty and their enemies shown them
IN battle array, like giantg of old they crush
everything in their, path. Through wha1
discouragements, and against what odds
they conquered in Kansas we need not tell
We need not recall these things; they are
patent to alEthe world It only remains
for the parricides to test again the: integ
rity Of the blood which las wrought these
things. They will learns y lesson BY expe

importance OF F0fE E1ckGmA as q DeN.
fence of the Naval Station.
The Washington National Republican thus
indicates the importance. OF Pensacola, it's navy
yard aud defenses:
"The magnificent bay Of Pensacola, twenty
seven miles in length and Gin its broadcast part)
twelve nnles in width, has twenty.one feet Of
water on its bar. The nayiea Of the world.
can foat securely within it. The great work
which protects it is Fort Pickcns, erected bE
the United States, at cost Of nearly million
of dollars, on the long, low, and narrow island
Of Santa Rosa. On the mainland side Of the
entrance to the bay, arc Fort MeRas, erected
by the United States. at q cost OF four hum
,lred thousand dollars, and Fort Barraneas, an
old Spanish fertilization, improved. and en-
larged by our government. ALI these main-
3; land defenses have fallen, together with the
navy ward. and an immense amount of stores.
provisions and munitions.
Thase LAST might have been saved bnt for
Commodore Armstrong, who commanded. at
and stores is attributable to the late Secretary
of the Navy, Mr. Toucey, who kept the Gulf
squadron at Vera Cruz, and never sent a SINGLE
vessel, either to protect the public works at
Pensacola, or to bring off the public property
which was movable. That Fort. PIcEeus Was
Iantfy Of Lleu1. ~ Mnef suu Tue naaa1a OF

The value If Pensa1 ola ha1bor, UPON the
1etehEes Of Whi6h wa have 1avshed so nnch,
is ipcaleulab1e. In q national point OF view it
can only be reckoned by hundreds Of millions
Of doliaFs. It is the only possible naval har.
bor on the Gull, and as the complement Of
Key West and Tortugas, commanding the
Straits Of Florida, will give Us that secure su-
prenacy in the Gulf Of Mexico, which we
cannot yield in any Imaginable contingency.
If even the present, so called, secession be
acquieaced in, an immense prepondcrance Of
the population of the valley Of the Mississippi
is within the United States, and that fact cont
pels US toretain the mastery Of the inland sea,
through which the commerce Of the Mississip.
pi must pass to the ocean.
Pensacola is ono OF the most healthy posi-
tions il that latitude, and Is resorted to dur
ing the heats Of summer, from New 0rleahs:
The GeorgiGas collected at Macon cannot
approach Pensacola by railroad nearer than
within ono hundred and fifty miles, and for
that distance maat march through country
thinly settled, and furnishing little In the way
Of supply, and over execrable roads. On the
other side, they come through Mobile, whence
they are wateroorne to Blakcly, u point fifty
miles from Pensacola"
