For What are We at WARP

Why is Abraham Lincoln gathering his ser
ried hosts for battle and why are our people
rising to resist thcml The reason is daily be-
coming more and more apparent. We have as
serted our purpose to exercise the right Of self
government, and the despotic wretch at Wash
ington is resolved that we shall be subjected to
his sway. The great mass of the Northern pco-
ole support him in his unholy scheme Of sub
jusation and slaughter, because they consider It
their interest to do So They foolishly believe
that we can be conquered, and they are deter
mined to conquer us, and to make the South a
scene of universal dcsolation .H.a-
Bennett, the Judas Iscariot Of the New York
Herald; Greeley, the John Brown sympathizcr,
of the Tribune; Webb, the infuriatcd brigand
Of the Courier and Enquirer; and all the other
leading month-pieccs and opponents Of Black
Republican maiigr,ity, are now throwing aside
the mask, and boldly declaring that the war
shall not cease until the whites Of the South are
cxterminated and the slaves set free. When we
peruse the reports Of the public meetings that
are held in the Northern cities and note the
ttroC&ous Scutttnttits tuat az thcie uttcteu

wonder that men can be guilty Of such wicked

solve our political relations with the Northern
people, asking at their hands only the poor boon
Of being let alone. They answer this rensona-

3 Drunken Abe

We have it fromvery good authority, that
Abraham Lincoln, since the date of bis inau-
guration, has not been sober for day; and
that be is frequently, aud for days together,
in state of such bcastly intoxication that
he is utterly incapable Of transacting official
business. His habits in this respect are said
to be notorious in Washington. What a
spectacle docs be present to the world |
Placed in position Of singular difficulty,
which demands the exercise Of the highest
qualities Of tact and prudence, he maddens
himself with drink, aad sways the ,destinies
of the United States from the gutter. 1t is
easy, now, to account for his reckless disre-
gard Of constitutional obligations, and for
the feDdish ferocity With which he urges on
his war against the Southern people Ills
constant associates are said to bcsuch ruff
ans - Jim Lane, Of Kansas, Blair, Of, Mis-
sour, and other pretehes of like character.

TIE BLocKADE ILLEGALLY BEGUS.-A
Geographic dispatch published in the Assoc
ciated Press matter yesterday contained the
announcement that three foreign vessels had
been prevented from entering Charleston
This IS Illegal. There is a law of nations
which cannot be tramplcd on, as the feelings
Of eight millions of people have been. A
blockade cannot be commenced lawfully un.
Ill the diplomatic representatives of foreign
Powers have been officially informed before
hand that such thing is TO take place, and
have communicated the fact to their respect
i've Governments. This has not been done.
England, France, Spain and other Powers
know nothing officially about it. Their Min
listers know nothing about it. The first
news anybody heard in regard to it was the
announcement that it had commenced To-
morrow or the day after, therefore, VIC may
expect to hear Of Lord Lyons calling on Mr..
Seward for an explanation. He will ask
why the Federal authorities dared to stop
vessel entering a Southern harbor before the
intended blockade was notified to him. The
French Minister will do likewise. SO will
the Ministers Of Spain, Russia, Prussia and
other nations. Then sharp rcbnkc from
the foreigners and an apology from the
President will ensne.-New York News.

ALMIGHTY Con, whose Providence WATCH
eth oyer all things, and in whose hands is
the disposal Of all events, we look up to
Thee for thy protection and blessing amidst
the apparent and great dangers with which
we are cncompassed Thou hast, in thy
wisdom, permitted us to be threatened with
the many evils Of an unnatural and destruc-
tive war. Save us, we bescech Thee, from
the hands Of our enemies. Watch over our
fathers and brothers and sons, who ffusting
in thy defence and in the Righteousness Of
uur caiise, hasc gone forth to the service Of
their country. May their lives be precious
in thy sight. Preserve them from all the
dangers to which they may be exposed,
Enable them successfully to perform their
duty TO Thee and to their country. And do
Thou, in thine infinite wisdom and power,
40 override events, and so dispose the hearts
Of all engaged in this painful struggle that
it may soon end in peaed and brotherly love |;
and lead not only to the safety, homer ard
welfare Of our Confederate States, but to the
good Of thy people. and the glory Of thy
great name, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

TO Circular Letter issued by me on the

the Clergy were requested, In the prayer

condemnation of every American citizen. 1t
is unworthy not merely Of statesman but
Of man, It is policy utterly hair-brained

this policy in the inaugural address, he is a

Of Fort Sumter, he is guilty hotspur In
