ANOTHER wonD FROM BELOW.

Delaware is rapidly wheeling into line. Her
people as q whole are true to the flag of the
country, albeit there are yet traitors in our
midst, the foul-mOuthed slang of some Of whom
is sometimes heard about our streets. But the
greater portion Of the community is still faith
full, loyal, and ready to defend the nations honor
and the nations constitution against all forms
Of treason and rebellion.
Not only is this so in reference to New Castle
County, hut we are happy to state that it is
equally true of good old Sussex, a County,
which perhaps is more interested in slavery than
any or all other Counties in the State But
Sussex County doesn't know slavery in the con.
test. The patriotism of her people rises higher
and brighter than the negro; her toiing, hardy
foresters have examined the question for them
selves unaided by the deceptive Vaccinations of
demagogues, and having thus viewed it in its
true light they have resolved to stand by their
country and aid in its defence. The Georgetown
Messenger, in commenting upon this fact, gnys:
We don't believe It would be possible 10 mu.ler in ali
the Couaty more than 500 persons favorable To the secs
sion Of Delaware Ia Georgetown, two weeks ago the s
cesson feeling was manifested strongly. An Effort was
made to crush out the Messenger accouH OF It's ed
toria against secession But now we do not know Of
more than half dozen voters In the place favorable 10
secession. Men Of all parties have signed a cail for
Union meeting and have declared themselves in favor OF
sustaining the Government at all hazards
Through the County the change is equally great AL
most every man we meet Is full OF PATRIOTISM and deter
mined TO die under the stars and stFles Old men and
od women tell MS with tears In their eyes that they can
not give up the flag q their country under which their
fathers fought, and under which some ct them died We
ming We may safely say that henseiorh and forever,
ols Sussex will stand by the Star spaugled Banner
But VT feel glad that no negro nor any political
feeling Is IN the question with us. All such consdera
ons have been buried beneath the mighty wnye Of pa.

The Union sentiment of Baltimore has been
greatly increased and developed within the last
few days. Meetings have been held and en-
thusiastc speeches made during several evenings
Of the present week, and true loyalty seems to
DO in the ascendant. The people appear to have
great confidence in the patriotism of the Legisla-
ture' aud the belief is confidently expressed that
Maryland will maintain her position and integri.
~ in the Union, Notwithstanding the scenes OF
last week we're against such an idea. The
American flag is floating from number o,

They begin to see the thick darkness that is he

"We are in most distressing want Of military

We shall suffer greatly for want of canteens."
Yes, not only will they suffer for want of

unrighteous crusade against the people and

JOHN BELL A TnAIron

Among the deplorable things Of the time, i,
the fact that John Bell the late candidate of the
Constitutional Union Party, has turned traitor
to his country, and counsels war against the
United States, over which he not long since as.
pired to assume control. Most fortunate indeed
is it for the country that he did not succeed.
In q late speech delivered at Nashville. be is
reported as advocating a strong and effective
military league or union among all the slave
holding States, for the successful prosecution of
the war. lie declared that Tennessee had in
effect, dissolved her relations with the Federal
Union, and though he had hoped mud labored to
the last to preserve the Union or if separation
was inevitable, to mike it peaceablo, he now
abandoned oil such hope, aud his "voce WAS
clear and loud to every Tennessean-to arms
to arms !"
How Mr.. Bell can make his present course
agree with the spirit Of his letter accepting the
Presidential nomination, written but IL few
months ago in which he pledged all the ability
and strength he could command ",o maintain
the Constitution aud the Union against all an
posing influences and tendencies" his many
former friends throughout the North will Ia a,
loss to determine. 1t would seem that he was
q Union man only on condition that he should no

Prentice Of the Louisville Journal, than whom
Mr.. Bell had no more devoted friend and advo.
cate thus speaks of the treason of John Bell -
"a more sudden, and utter, and inglorous de-
feotion was never suffered by sacred and i'm.
perilled cause. 1t must excite nnspeakable NOR
lifeation, and disgust, and Indignation in the
breast Of every true and enlightened lover of his
country 1t is burning scandal to the cause Of
constitutional liberty"
Painful as it may be to say it, John Bell, the
once patriotic Statesman will sink into his grave
amid the reproaches Of a country which he de-
ceiVed because he could not govern.
