c. B. SANDERS.
For the Standard.

For the Standard
Mr. EDITOR The present condition of the cOun-
try has induced me to observe some OF the difficult
ties in the way of many brace men in taking up
arms in the defence of their State and her liberties
Some men who four and six months past were ready
for the conflict, and only asked opportunity to
prove to the world their patriotism, are seek
ing the dark and quiet places to hide their heads
from the dense cloud overhanging their country.
have others always ready to advise their neigh
bors to rush to the field of battle, but quite
prepared to adopt their own advice. 1t is obvious
that there are some obstacles in the way of such
persons, and obstacles of very grave nature or
such patriots could not have been kept out of the
line of duty so long when thousands of their past
associates have left all behind and are now brcastng
disease and death in defence of their country. If
the battles for Southern independence are ever 20
he successfully fought, it is high time the men to
fight them were giving up their quiet places and
taking the field and the tent But, say those brave
men, there are some difficulties in our way. What
are these difficulties? One gives as his difficulty
a young wife at home who cannot go with him, and
cannot be left behind hence, man and wife must
both stay at home. Another says he has had one
of his arms fractured little toe diSlocated, and
therefore he is not fit for a soldier if running is to
be done, or heavy hoeing and spadng are needed.
third declares that he is nervous even in times of
peace and if he should volunteer be called out
BY the Governors draft, he fears 1t might unhinge
his mind and place him in the asylum. Others
have little official dignites to attend to, such as
keeping village post offices the abors of which might
be easily accomplished by men and women two
score and ten years. Others are truly patriotic,
bnt cannot show their patriotism only in some high
State or government Office.
Such are some of the little difficulties in the way
of many men in making up their minds to do their
parts in the present difficulties of the land. The
cause of the South can be defended until men
come out from behind such fiimsy pretexts. If
office and money are to be the great incentives to
action in the present struggle then it would be well
for the people to know it and let them prepare in
time for the worst. N G..
