Traitor sympathy Tor MIssOurs.
The following editorial Of the Mobile Reg
lister, a leading secession sheet, will serve to
show in what high estimation Gov. Jackson
Is regarded by traitors, and will also iDdi-
cate the course Of future operations in Mis-
souri,, should our forces meet with any con-
siderable reverse hereafter:
The case Of Missouri calls for the pro.
foundest sympathy Of the Confedersted
South. Undoubtedly at this time vast ma.
jority Of her citizens are utterly opposed to
the authority of Lincoln, and are devoted,
heart and soul, to the cause to which their
instincts, affections and Judgment entirely
attach them. But for the time they are
auelled, snbdued into submission % the
thral Of the rampant Abolitionist. The foot
OF the oppressor is on their necks, and they
are appalled, and startled from their faculties
by the ruthless display OF bis power in the
slaughter IF women and children. They are
without local gevernma entail authority for the
organization OF concerted and formidable
ras.stancs md. scattsrad and dafennelaas
feel at the mercy Ut those who have made
federal authority an armed tyranny in their
State, to the overthrow and overriding OF
the local government regimes State or mu-
nicipal.
We cannot believe that Missouri will long
be 10 this deplorable condtion-held subject
TO the armed Abolition element which VAS
not born on her soil, or on any soil this side
Of the Atlantic. We cannot believe that the
native born men Of Missouri will long tamely
submit to the degradation OF being coerced
by either Red Republicans Of Europe, or the
Black Republicans OF America, their politi-
cal and moral heresies only assuming deep
er hue on this side Of the wster. leader il
not lacking. We believe that Gov. Jackson
| 10 the man for the occs zion, and We believe
that ho is preparing for its exigencies, and
tha, ere long Missouri will wake up, and with
q sshout Of defiance. re.echoing from the
Kansas border to the Mississippi, drive the
last armed federalist from her soil.

appeals most loudly, not only TO our patriot
