The Mad Spirit of the North,
IN the Montreal GdEsas is quotation from sueeeh
OF ex Postmaster General HOLT delivered At Boston
in which he alluded to the case of The two women
who beth claimed the paternity Of the same child,
and King SOLOMON decided by ordering the inssutto
be cut in twsin-and from which instance of ..crsd
history the ex-PostmAster General drew a parallel
in the present contest between the North and the
South The Gazette thus comments uponit:
NOW, doubtless, there is much fervid patriot;.,,
in this, but the parallel drawn is il strikes us A
unhappy one. The application made of the Bible
story Is very incorrect. The true mother was viii
hing to give up her share Of the child rather than
see its blood shed The North prefers to shed ths
blood Of the South to stay liberty, which is its life
rather than give up its prospective share in the
profits Of Southsrn agriculture and commerce. and
certain forts, arsenals. &c, which are, after su
mere trlnkets around the chIld's neck They are
willing 10 accept bleeding and ruined South sew
efeu Dy Lne sword OF fGctOn, and with Its spirits
crushed out, rather than let it 60. The Northern
politicians do not stand, therefore, for the good
mother, who, to save life would give up her child;
but fo- the bad, which desired the bleeding body
rather than surrender her claim.
Confidence In rhs Succsss OF the South.
The Quebec M0rRSg Chronicle also states that
Southerner, who was travelling on the Great Trunk
Railway in company with large number Of North
ern men displayed q thousand dollars in geld and
offered ID bet 1t that the SOutherners would be
victorious IN The next battle, but the bet was not
accepted
Another talked very lightly about the taking Of
HAtteras, and said be only wished the Federal
authorities would dispense al their troops in SINH
ar way.
The Chronicle then speaks Of the reported stag
nation Of trade and want Of money in Virginia, and
adds:
Nevertheless, in all their troubles, there sesma
o De but one spirit actuatng the South and that a.
Die, rather than submit &c 3 re union with the
North"
