RetrOsrade Movement of Secession.

q The New York Evening Post Observes:
Mr. jefferson Davis has already suffered
on several occasions by the untimely reve-
lation OF his plans. When the Secretary of
War announced that Washington City would
be in the hands,o of the rebels before the first
of May, he committed an imprudence for
which he has since been eensured, And w
doubt not that q more recent declaration of
an eminent Georgian will be pronounced in
like manner unauthorized This Georgian
writes that "if we fail, many persons pro-
pose TO desolate the country and retreat; and
if that win not do to offer the country 70
England as q colony ~
Those Southern politicians who are nov
prominent rebels at Montgomery were al
ways great sticklers for that principle in
cur national politics known as the +" Monroe
Doctrine" In a message to Congress, on
December 2, 1923, President Monroe said;
4" We owe it therefore, 70. cander, and to the
amicsble relations existing between the
United States and those fEuropel powers, to
declare that we should consider any attempt
on their part to extend their system to any
portion of this hemisphere, as dangerous to
our peace and safety.
1t is not improbable that in that extremity
to which the Montgomery rebels are already
so nearly reduced, they will not hesitate al
this last desperate measure of offering them
selves and the States they have subjugated

meneement of their rebellious movement

tons o. the two sections, aud the purpose of
the one to throw the whole burden Of sup-
porting the Government, and great part Of
tbe burden of supporting itself, on the other.
Lipcolnis home friends will discovef that it
il bad enough TO support thsl Yankees-withl
out the aid Of the S~outh-even in time of
peace, but intolerable to support a Yankee

they will say 70 the Government make
peace, or we, too, secede. Giving the North
west credit for common sense and common
prudence, Il is hard TO imagine that events
will take any other course than this, unless
the Administration at Washington stops
warning on the South, aud initiates peace
measures before Congress c%onvenes.

The Richmond (Va.) EzaHiiasr has the fol-
lowing entertaining comments and ludicrous
predictions: rlt-
- Lincoln, like Scott, is a traitor to his
State and section. He has involved the
Northwest in q war, in order to crafty
Yankee hate and thirst for revenge, and to
Iivet more firmly the Yankee chains that
bind her. The Morrill, tariff is an instrument
intended 70 flch the North west of thirty
per cent. OF its surplus crop of grain and
meat and transfer Il 20 the bankrupt half
starving North east. Lincoln well knows
that Pennsylvania New York, and New En-.
gland can only subsist their population from
the proats derived from his section; not from
fairt honest and national profits, but from
profits enhanced thirty per cent BY means
ola protective tariff. Yet knowing all this,
Lincoln. like Scott is wiling TO sacrifice his

-n, Fearlesnness apd P~eculiarities,
The Zouave Is q small, fne-featured man,
rather loosely put together. He has that ex-
preston Of face which prepares you at once
for any cool intrepid, harmless piece of i'm
pudence. | say harmless for among friends
be is soh hearted as o woman, perhaps more
so. He is a br~sggadociO, but fnll Of kind
ness and devoid of envy. He will believe Of
Others, stories to the full rs marvellous as he
relates Of himself, and give them entire
credit for any species of impossible adven-
ture to which they may lay claim. His
mind Is at once shrewd and Imaginative, yet
singularly free from suspicion. The stupid
est triekster might win his faith and deceive
him and to do so even with subsequent i'm
punity, for he does not know what it IS to
bear enduring malice. In spite Of this boy
ish SIMPLIFY, however, he is unmatched in
invention and resources. He would live,
and live well, where ingenuity itself would
starve.b He would succeed where wisdom
and experience i~ncarnate would fail. He is
brave to rsshness, unsel6sh to chiyalry, un-
e%xacting, good humored, ready to oblige or
assist Others to7a degree that is inexpres-
sibly graceful and winning. But he must
be humored, for he believes in himself and
if you put him out he will begin to talk
about lie Soldat Francois, VoyeS-VoHs, and
then nothing in the world is to be done with
him till be is paciiied. A word, however,
will paciiy him. / believe a single kindness
would touch his generous heart more than
years of wrong, injury or ingratitude. m
He is q curious study, but the more you
think of him the more he will amuse you,
and the more you will learn to love and adj
mire him-the reckless, provoking, gallant
sharp witted dare devil. ra -

HIs RECKLEssNEss.

Though a ready and useful soldier when
any fighting is to be done, he is quite hope
less on parade. He has genius for any
thing you like, except the theoretical part Of
his profession. Perhaps he knows, far to
well, what campaigning really is, to attach
much Importance to it, and secretly votes
drilling and reviewing a bore of no common
magnitude. He would do any thing in the
world for an officer who knows how TO lead
him but drilling and orderly conduct are
really too much for him. srl .'
His dwelling, whether tent, or barracks,
or hovel, is a perfect marvel of muddle and
strange contrivances. He has none of the
neatness, precision and art of slowing away
things which usually characterizes a soldier
or a sailor; when he has done with any
thing he throwsi it down and forgets all about
il, though be may want it again ten minutes
afterWard. He will apply things in the
most remarkable manner, and without the
smallest regard for the purposes for which
they were intended he would think nothing
of drinking brandy out of a powder task,
and keeping ammunition in a sauce pan.
He would carry a outlet in his turban, and a
pair of shoes in a basket. without the least
idea Of unftness of place in either case; and
his vanity would prompt him to give away
outlet, ehoes, basket and all, in mere gaiety
of heart, and to show his excellence as a
forager.
he is wonderful as a cook, tailor, cobbler,
washerwoman; but he usually applies all
these gifts for the benefit of anybody but
himself. To please a ~piVaHdiere, or an OFF,
GERS wife, who knows how TO manage him,
he would sit up all night, and give a petit
souPeT to mind her baby. He would turn
carpenter, blacksmith, housemaid, for her,
with eI1al energy, good win and success.
He would risk his life TO Gull her a nosegay
under thee enemy guns, OF to bring her some
coffee from q shop in Sebastopol. !."f
Going into Sebastopol, indeed, is his
faVOrite exploit just low. II is idle to at

the most mysterious way whenever it suits
him. He dresses himself in some Russian
uniform, found on the field of battle, and
