RETURN or CRIPPLED SOLDIER FROM rHrwA

RETURN or CRIPPLED SOLDIER FROM THE WAR
Affecting Meeting nth his Mother.-This morn
ing member of Company D Of Lowell, named
Chandler, who halls from Can't ridge, where his
mother resides, reached this city from Baltimore.
Mr.. Chandler was one Of the victims of the Bal.
timore tragedy. He was in the last platoon of
his company, and receive severe injuries at the
hands of the "roughs," which will probably
make him cripple for life. He has bad cut
in the head, his left leg severely crushed and
mangled by stones, breaking main artery, and
rendering it doubtful if he ever can recover
its use +; u thumb of one hand was shot off by a
pistol ball another grazed his scalp. He has had
hard time of it, but though the kind office of a
charitable lady of Baltimore, he received the
most seduleus care, and was at last enabled to
return to his home.
On the way to this city knowledge of the
fact that he was a soldier was alone necessary
to procure for him free Of charge all that he de-
sired. Mr.. Stetson of the Astor was profuse in
his attentions. Mr.. R X. Potter of this city
took charge of him there, and shared his state
room with him, while Capt Brown of the Bay
State refused to receive cent for his passage.
His Mother in Cambridge was telegraphed to
and met him at the depot. When the cars
rived she looked around for her son, who, she
heard, had been wounded, buf she had not the
least idea of the extent of his injuries. When,
therefore, she beheld poor cripple hobbling to-
wards her on crutches, and recognized that it
was the changed form of her beloved son, her
agitation was extreme.
The scene of meeting was quite affecting,
drawing tears from the eyes even of Mayor
Greene, who accompanied Mrs Chandler, albeit
the Chief Magistrate of our city is not often in
such melting mood. Mr.. Chandler accompan
led his mother to Cambridge.-He states that he
is confident that he killed two of the mob during
the struggle. Traveller, 10th.

A BIT OF HIsToRY.-In his recent message JEFF
Davis says that the right of State to Judge of
its wrongs twas maintained by overwhelming
majorities of the people Of all the States of the
Union, especially in the election of Mr.. Jeffer
son in 1905. Mr.. Madison in 1909, and Mr.. Pierc4:
in 1859
Mr.. Jefferson, in his inaugural address in 1901,
the sentiments of which he repeated in 1905,
made use of the following expressions:
"The preservation of the General Govern
ment in it constitutional vigOr, as the sheet an
Choir of our peace at home and safety abroad
is absolute acquiescence in the decisions of the
majority, the vital principle of republics, from
which there is no appeal but force, the vital
principle and immediate parent of despotism."
In 1857 Mr.. Jefferson wrote:
"When two parties make a compact, there re-
suits to each power of compelling the other TO
execute it,n

ors of Virginia, the Madison corresponding COM
lnittee and the Governor Of the State dined TO-
gether in Richmond,
The following was the fourteenth regular toast;
''The Union of States; the majority must gov.
ern; it is treason to seoeda."
Now for Gen. Pierce. Just prior to the nom,
nation, Mr.. King Of Alabama, who was the can.
didate for Vice President, wrote a letter, in
which he said:
81 have ever been States Rights man Of the
Jefferson school, and can fearlessly appeal to my

States possess either the constitutional or the

"RExEMBER BUEyA vBrA."-The Indian VOL
unteers have taken for their watchword the
motto Remember Buena Vista" Why it was
taken is told by the Indianapolis Journal:
'Col. Wallace took the flags, and holding
them up to the regiment, said that the gratitude
OF himself and his men to the ladies Of Terre
Haute and indianapolis had an affinity that
could not be expressed. He told his men to re-
member Buena Vista, and wipe out the disgrace
that had been cast on Indiana by the alleged
cowardy conduct of our volunteers in that bat
We. We VIII adopt for our motto, he continued,
Remember Buena VISTA" [Shouts from the
regiment-"We'll adopt it."J "Boys, then, win
you ever desert the banners that have been pre-
scented us this day. Loud shouts ''Never, new
er!"] Then Remember Buena Vista,n and
swear that you will never desert the flag of yeur
country or your Regimental Colors. Get dorm
on your knees AND ssceari" Here the entire re-
giment kneeed, and with uplifted right arms
sW ore to stand by their country and its flag and
to remember Buena Vista" This was most
impressive scene, and filed hundreds of manly
eyes with tears"

SHALL WE PAY Ur"-It may be said that
mercantile honor demands the payment of all.
business debts. Politness demands that if en-
article is asked for, civilly, and if the ker has
any claim upon it, that it should be delivered
up; but would that chain of reasoning Justify any
one in giving raging maniac weapons where
with to destroy the life Of another? And where.
in do the fanatics of the North differ from rag
ing maniac?
We hare already the name of not paying our
debts; the Infamous lie is spread broad cast
throughout the land by all the abolition journals,
and as we now have the name, and the very
northern merchants who know the contrary, do
not take pains to contradict the report, why not
haze the game as re2p y \ n n
Let it be generally understood that no debts
whatever, due from the South to the North,
will be paid until peace relations are restored,
and the Confederacy recognized ss az independ-
ent government. and that in that event all claims
will be paid with interest, and we will soon see
the Northern defense subscriptions becoming
small by degrees and beautifully less, and all we
ask for granted. The heart of the North is To-
Gated in the breeches pocket, and can only be
got at through that channel.-[vieksburg Miss

SoLvIKG THE PRoBLEx The greatest problem
Of this Or any other age, is in progress Of solu.
ton in the United States. It is whether man is
capable Of the enjoyment Of liberty, and free
institutions; whether civilization can be render.
ed permanent BY those who have attained it
or whether the sublinest national product of
human wisdom and virtue, aided by abenefceRt
Providence can be dashed to pieces, at the fret
blow which is struck at it by treason and do.
nestle violence. European statesmen have not
ceased to predict that republican Institutions,
in q civilized nation, where chimerical in theo-
ry, delusive in practice, and that they could not
withstand the severest tests Of anarchy or mill
tary power when fairly directed against them
Experience will teach whether this forebodipg
has been correct 1t has already demonstrated
that We are impregnabe against attacks from
without; but rebellion has never reared its head
in formidable shape, since the United States
became nation. Humanity recols at the sac
rilege, and asks whether the impious attempt
can be crowned with a success, which would
cause the very angels to mourn. We believe
that the question is already answcred.-[N. Y.

him with bayonet at the charge, when, instead
OF attacking him, or even standing on the defense,
the poltroon rebel took to his heels and ran for
dear life. In ten rods, however, he was overtak.

sued for quarter. The sentry ordered him to
