The martial Enthusiasm of the PeOpI.

The Martial Enthusiasm of the People.
Since the first settlement Of Tennessee by her
indomitable and hardy pioneers, the martial enthu-
sasm Of her sons has never yet been higher or more
universal than it is now. The Greek war; the Flori
da war, the war with Great Britain, the Mexican
war have each been periods that tried the metal of
her sons and elected from it the true ring that has
covered her escutcheon with imperishable glory
and enrolled her name among the uneonquerable
States of the world. But naver before has there
been such universal uprising OF the people, with
the cry of to arms, to arms" as the treachery.
usurpations and despotism of ABRAHAM LINCOLN
have inspired.
With a Union sentiment in their. breasts as
strong and pure as ever beat in the bosoms
Of patriots, they have suddenly aroused to the
conviction that an INSCRIPTIONS tool of heartless
and irreligious faction has broken up the Union of
consent, established by fathers overturned the
Constitution and erected in their stead one of the
most absolute fanatical and remorseless military
despotisms, tkat the world ever saw. This convic
tion, suddenly forced upon their unwilling and
trusting minds. BY the signal notes of war, the
blockade Of our ports and the murder Of women
and children has aroused them to sense Of their
danger, and the peril to their liberties, and
has been the summons to the stern duty of as
sorting their rights by the sword, Of laying
aside the implements of peace, and once more
giving proof of their devotion to those principles
Of equality and independence which have won
them, at once freedom and renown. Every plain
IN all our borders, is touched by the tread Of
her stalwart and invincible sons animated by the
sublime courage of their fathers, and indicating by
every manly monument the martial enthusiasm
that stirs their souls. 1t is glorious and glad
sight to see these sons of freedom ralying to the
rendezvous, to which they are called, with the
slscrity that lover obeys the call of love, counting
she privaton OF the tented field and determined TO
defend the graves Of their heroic fathers from
dissertation All the hordes of the fanatical North
can never strike one fear IN the unqus:lIRg hearts
