TIE SoUrn-rnE CLERGY.-A subscriber in Ala
ba,na whose subscription has about week to rum
and who, we suppose, has not the money to renew,
writes to discontinue our paper to his address,
and adds:
"You take strong grounds for the Union, hence
don't want your paper any longer. Everybody
here is for the Southern Confederacy. Even our
preachers, almost to man are for secession"
We shall not pause to argue the point with this
Southern madcap, as to whether the grounds that
we take are strong or not We are Union man, in
the longest and broadest of that term, and
never were anything else. We have never deemed
that the overthrow Of any political party was suf
ficent cause for dissolving the Union.
AS regards the clergy, who are preaching sermons
in favor of secession, regard them insincere, n.y.
pocritienl and coaonrdly. They despise this whole
secession movement in their hcarts-their religion
education and conscience, teach them that the Union
and Government Of our Fathers ought to be pre-
served But their bread and meat depend upoE
their avoring this miserable Southern mob, IN the
name of secession, and under the pretencc only of
establishing Southern Confedcrscy. 1t is only
here and there in the seeding States that minis.
ter has the piety, independence, and courage to
denounce this vile conspiracy to break up the Gov
ernment! The venerable Dr.. Pierce of Georgia, a
native Of South Carolina and true man, has utter
ly repudiated the whole movement, over his own

UNcoxPLIMENrARY.-Thed sunion organs pretend
that the people did not understand the question on
which they voted at the State election of the 18th
ult, and moreover that they deceived by tele-
graphic dispatches sent from Washington on the
eve of the election and extensively published and
circulated in Extras. As we received no such dis.
patch and published no Extra We may leave it to
those Who did t. justify their conduct, as they are
abundantly able to do. But there is one view of
the subject that the dsunionists do not appear to
have taken 1t is this Union dispatches were sent
from Washington by Messrs. Morehead, Gilmer and
Vance, Dsunion dispatches were sent by Messrs.
Bragg, Clingman, Winslow, Rutfin, Craige, Branch,
Reid, Barringer and Davis. These were all issued
from the disunon press at Raleigh, and some or all
Of them from similar presses at Goldsborough and
Wilmington, and perhaps other places, whilst no
Union dispatch was issued at Godsborough or Will
mington or, as we believe in any town where there
was not dsunion dispatch to meet it. 1t is mani
fest therefore, that the disunionists had decidedly
the advantage not only in the number of dispatches
and the number Of the signers of the dispatches,
but also in the extent of circulation of extras Now
the point we make is this: If the people were de-
ceived as asserted it could only be because they had
more faith in Messrs. Morehead, Gilmer and Vance
than in Messrs. Bragg, Clingman, Winslow Ruffin.
Craige. Branch, Reid, Barringer and Davis.
We submit that the disunion organs are not yerv
complimentary to their Senators, Representatives,
and Peace Conference Commissioners, though de.
cidedly so to Messrs. Morehead, Gllmer and Vance

TIE MISSISSIPPI SrARv ArIoN.-That the reports

proved by the following remarkable statement from

neighbors. He showed US a list of those who had

of those who in destitute condition and COM

and thirty six bushels Most of those sending are
responsible men, but they cannot raise money to
pay for it and it is the intention Of Major Hawkins
to lay the facts before those who have corn for SALE
and try to induce them to sell corn on credit until
next fall.

New York ON SLAVERY IN THE SrATEs.-dov.
Morgan, through his private secretary, MI. Doty,
transmitted on the Dist instant joint resolution OF
Congress, proposing to the several State Lesisla-
lures an article amendatory of the Constitution
viding tina: no amendment shallsbe made to thee
stituton which will authorize or give to Congress
power to abolish or interfere within any State WIN
the domestic institutions thereof including that OF
persons held to labor or service. Such amendment
to he valid when ratified by three-fourths OF saio
Legislatures 49,
In transmitting the resolutions the Governor says:
"The amendment proposed is one which Will com
mend itself to the Judgment while it conforms 70
the sentiment of the people of the State, VINO on an
occasions have avowed the doctrine OF the right OF
the States respectively to control their domestic m
situations in such manner as they may Judge most
conducive to their prosperity and happiness Wnle
New York is unalterably opposed to the lnstltnMoh

to submit to any external interference with her IN

ing any proper constitutional guarantee desired ny

REMARKABLE INSTANCE OF AFFEcrIoN-The Phila-
delpha North american records the following sngu.
lar case: "ln compartment Of the cage in which
the animals perform at Van Amburgh's beautiful
menagerie in Chestnut street. is huge tawny Ash
attic lion. His roommate is black female tiger
The tiger is small compared to the regal lion. but is
highly valued as geological curiosity and the only
specimen Of the black tiger in this country. She
was purchased by Mr.. Van Amburgh some two
years ago and has lived with the lioE ever since
The attachment between the two is something re-
markable. When other animals are in the same
cage, and any afront is offered to the little tiger,
she under the belly of the lion, and woe be to
any animal that dares approach her. No matter
how hungry he may be, the lion never touches his
share Of their daily meat until his little chum has
selected her share; and even this he never entirely
consumes until certain that she has had enough
All the animals as fat as moles; but this back
tiger is aldermanic in her proportions and no REM
edy exists for the matter. She has been twice re-
moved from the lion but until she was returned
the generous beast would take neither food nor rest
while the frantic manner in which he dashed at the
bars was sufficient warning that further deten.
ton of the tiger would be dangerous matter
Should his mate die, the lion would probably pine
to death. Once when she was taken away, lioness
was substituted. The lion instantly fell upon her,
and at single bite broke her spine and crushed
some of her ribs. Careful nursing saved her life,
and she is still living but with her hinder parts i'm
movably parayzed."

CALLING FOR VoTE-The editor of the Ntrth
Albanian proclams his dissatisfaction with the
seceders' action, and being advised to "leave the
State" replies:
"If all were to leave who are dissatisfied, fear
the remainder would have to leave do worse.
for they would have few left on whom :5ey could
safely rely for selfprotection 1t is remarkable
fact and why it is know not, that the substanti
al, physical force Of the country-the bar,i1isted,
Woodworking men, everywhere, who are expected to
do all the fighting when their country calls-were
from the beginning opposed to the ordinance of Sc
cession, and are becoming daily more and more dis
satisfied with it."
The Augusta Chronicle (secession) says:
There is no longer any reason why the people
should not be recognised as portion Of the State.
We advocate the submission Of the constitution to
the people, a convention chosen by the N for its
consideration, as measure Of expediency. 1t is
notorious that much dissatisfaction exists uong the
people Of some portions Of the confederacy."
The Jackson Missiuippian asserts 1.-THE right Of
the people to decide whether or not they will live
under the constitution which is being provided for
them by the body in session at Montgom cry"
The Vicksburg Wig insists that the permanent

popular will, and woe be to the man who stands
between the people and this inal:enable right"

THE POSITION OF MEDIAroR.-The proud and
enviable position occupied by Virginia. is that OF
mediator between the North and the South-between
the mad and reckless extremists of all sections OF
the country. The Alexandra Gazette pays de-
served compliment to Mr.. Klby, the able and con-
servatve delegate in the Virginia Convention, from
Nansemond county, and adds that he recently made
speech at Nansemond Court House, in which he
argued against what he believed to be the vital error
of immediate Secession" and declared that the
position which Virginia had so far taken, was one
of the highest dignity. Instead Of suffering herself
to be "hiched" on to the North, or by the counses
of impulsive and fiery spirits to be "hitched" on TO-
the South, she still held and it was glorious prvi.

and the barristers their wigs. 1t was a de-
lirium ofjoy. The contagion spread through
the multitude outside, and the shouts of tri
umph passed along the whole line to the
Gresham Hotel i'll Sackville street. The
crowd took the horses from Mrs. Yelver-
toms carriage, and drawed it to the hotel,
where she was obliged to appear on the bal
eony to crafty her admirers. She said -
" Ny nOble-hearted friends, you have by
your verdict this day made me an Irish wo-
man. You will forever live in my heart, as
/ do in yours this day" Her being an Eng
lishwoman had no effect in damping the
ardor of the most bigeted Milesian or Ultra
montanist-her having been Sister of
Charity and convert to the Church of
Rome did not check the sympathy of the
most intolerant Orangeman. The speech of
Mr. Sergeant Armstrong, who in his zeal
for his client, did all he could to make her
seem vile in the eyes of her own sex, did
not diminish the interest in her of the ladies
of Dublin, whose carriages were drawn up
along the quay in a long line.
