il is cr' ditabe 10 those who express these opln-
IONS, II at they deprecate as much as any North
erner, the terrorism which Wise, Floyd, Yancey,
Toombs, &C., wish to inauguraie, and they seeTn
to irdrlge in hope that these mn viii be d's-
carded by tie people, and their places be sup
planted by politicians of more statesman k"
and dignifcd character. The ways Of Charleston
laugh heartily at TOOmbss message 10 the New
York Nayor Wood and at Woods cowar1y and
dastardly reply, and say openly that Wood should
be taken to the Toombs, if there be- spirit LETT
among the Ncw-Yorkers. The Mercury is anNnns
to friehten the community by startling and olaln-
Gus reports as regards Fort Sumter; but an at
tack has so long been expected, that it will not
particularly surprise the people here, if it should
come. Not the least amusing part in the history
of the Charleston revolution is the srategrtcal
acumen of the young volunteers, who talk ct
taking tie fort about hundred times day, willie
the few accomplished military men, on listening
10 their remarks, shrug their shoulders CONTEMPT
uou.ly. and all say that the taking OF fort, and
especially one made Of solid and almost impr'g-
nable materials Ike Fort Sumter, is the hardest
nut to crack in warfare.

A Scrap Of History.

1t may not be uninteresting to read the fol-
lowing extracts, from Irving's "Life of Wash
ington,' concerning the armies of the Revolu.
tion at the beginning of the war:
Washington reconnoitered the British
posts from various points of view. Every
thing about them was in admirable order
The works appeared to be constructed with
military science, the troops to be in high
state of discipline. The American camp, on
the contrary, disappointed him. He had ex-
pected to find 18 or 10000 men under arms
there were not much more than $4,000. He
had expected to find some degree of system
and discipline; whereas all were raw militia.
t t In riding throug ghout the camp,
Washington observed that 5000 of the troops
belonged to Massachusetts; the rest were
from other provinces Many were sadly in
want Of clothing, and all, said Washington,
were strongly imbued with the spirit Of in
subordination, which they mistook for inde-
pendencc.
'One of the encampments, however, was in
striking contrast with the rest, and might vie
with those of the British for order and exact
ness. Here were tents and marques pitched
in the English style; soldiers we'll drilled and
we'll equipped everything had an air of dis
ciplne and subordination. 1t was body Of
Rhode Island troops, who were pronounced
the best disciplined and appointed troops in

VALLANDIGuAM RErUDIATED IN HIS OWN DIS
TRIcT.-Sixty of the leading Democrats
in Vallandigham S District, Montgomery Coun-
ty, Ohio, have issued a circular against the
" despotic and traltorous course of the Vallan
digham clique" They say: " 1t is the mission
of the Democratic party to give strength and
vigor and efficiency to the Constitution and Gov
ernmcnt when they are attacked by Rebels and
traitors. In the language of the hmcnted
Douglas, mo man can be a true Democrat
without being at the same time loyal patriot,
and there are but two positions to assume we
must either be for or against our Government.
either patriots or traitors.''
They pledge themselves q to unite with all
loyal citizens in defense of the nation ,and in re
buking the unpatriotic action of said Conven.
tion and Of the Dayton Empire, and in sup
porting for office in the county of Montgomery
mea, irrespective of party, who are loyal to
the Government, by vigorous prosecution of
this war; and who in no contingency are in ia
vor Of secession"

Patriotic Meeting at Mackville.

Mr.. EDITOR Perhaps some of your readers
would like to know where Mackville is. For
tho information Of such, will Just say that it
is small, aourishing village in the town of
Hardwick, situated one mile south of South
Hardwick village, on Nichols brook, which
drains the waters of Nichols and Long ponds,
into the Lamoille river, afforling one of the
best water powers in the State, and is desirable
location for energetic mechanics and tradesmen
1t is inhabited by an enterprising and patriotic
people, as you will see by the following:
On Saturday, the 18th inst, there was gen
eral gathering around splendid flag staff, pre-
viously erected, and under a National Flag
eight feet by twelve, manufactured by our own
" ladies fair,') to do honor to our Country and
its brave defenders. After few Introductory
remarks by the Chairman of the Flag Compa-
ny, the following sentiments were severally
read and responded to by the Woodbury. can
non and the hearty cheers of the audience, in
terspersed with National glees, performed by
the glee club, among which were, The Star
Spangled Banner, The Flag of our Union, My
Native Land, &C., and also patriotic songs by
Prof. Leavett, of Connecticut, sung in COM
mendable style:
Our Country-The land we love. May the
dark clouds that overshadow it soon be dispelled
by the sunshine of peace.
Our National Volunteers-Loyal and brave,
may their success be equal to their valor.
.New England-The birth place of Freedom,
but shall never be its burying ground.
Vernont-The star that shines brightest in
the midst Of clouds.
The Green Mountain Volunteers-The descend
ants of Ethan Allen; they will apply the beech
seal to all traitors
MackuiHe-The youngest of three sisters
(villages), but the first welded to the Union
match fit to be made.
The Ladies Of MackviNe--W orthy Of our high
est praises and best affections. We will never
desert them while their beautiful stars adorn
our banner
Finally, Success to the Stars aud Stripes, and
death TO all traitors.
After singing the closing glec, as the sun re-
tired IN the west, we were notified by our vigil
ant scout that the South Hardwick Guards were
approaching the village. Upon this announce
ment the ladies and gentlemen present, under
the direction of the Marshal, f. G. Henderson,
proceeded with instrumental music, and dis
playing beautiful banner, to escort the Guards
into our village. After spending happy hour
in playing the soldier g by the light of the sill

from Messrs. Burke and Hathaway, of South
Hardwick, we bade each other " Good Night

on and fight ever " for the Union and for the
cause of universal Liberty. B.

MASKED TRAIroRs.-Forney' Press has
the following timely rebuko to masked trait
ors:
The only true way to gain permanent
and substantial peace is to teach those who
have unfurled the black banner of treason 50
grave and terrible lesson that for centuries
to come none will dare initiate their perni-
cious example. And those among us who are
ever ready to cavil, to condemn, to criticise,
aud to weaken the Government, for the sake
of indirectly beneftting the secession cause,
are, in reality, the foes of peace, as they are
the foes of the country, because peace can on.
ly he reestabished on just, enduring, and
honorable basis, and by the complete reasser-
tion of the authority Of the whole people Of
our country over its whole territory.

| AM THE WAY--Who ? Jesus Christ.
Whence From sin, wo, death and hell.
Whittier? ? To pardon, peace holiness and
heaven.
How By his perfect obedience, atoning
death, and renewing and sanctifying spirit.
Is there any other way Not one. No
man can come unto the Father but by me. "
Neither is there salvation in any other; for
there is mono other name under heaven given
among men whereby we must be saved"
Cannot, then, morality save us7 Cannot
aims, penance, masses, priestly dispensations,
nor prayers, nor merits of the saints? Most
certain not. Are not the divine words Just
cited plain words? Need any man misunder-
stand them? Will any man peril his soul by
perverting or neglecting them? What more
than madness! To every sinner of A,iam's
race Jesus Christ says, pointing from hell to
heaven-I AM THE WAY!

POWDER MILL P1ETY.-Said little GIRL
who had just been reading the newspaper ac-
count of an explosion, Ma, don't you think
that people who work in powder mills ought
to be pious ? There was great deal of
human nature in that question. The world,
like the little girl. thinks that all who are
especially exposed, ought to be prepared for
sudden death. But is not the whole world
vast powder mill Is it not filled every
where with the elements of destruction? The
very air we breathe may become poisonous
and slay US. The water We drink may con-
tain some deadly Ingredient which neither
sight nor taste can detect. We are encom,
passed even by unseen dangers. We are
never certain of tomorrow Then should
we not be prepared, whatever our age, our
business, or our locality, for sudden death?

cate says :

A TRUTH ApTLY PREsENTED.-The Adro
cate says:
When we we're at the Water Cure, a man
who had been pining for years, and nobody
could tell what allied him, was put into the
cold packing, and very soon an eruption of
measles came out all over him. 1t turned out
that the man had the measles years before,
and the doctor druggcd it out of sight, and
ever since it had been tormenting him inward
ly. Even SO the grief of children may be vi
olenty hogged out of sight, instead of being
drawn to the surface by more gentle methods,
and the result may be sorry temper that
never knows the relief of tears, but always
sulks and whines.

The CHIvALRY FIGHTING Shy The Washing.
ton correspondent of the New York Journal Of
Commerce, under date of Aug. 22d, says
"The Confederate officers do not speak boast

and say that they fought shy. The infantry on
both sides were shy. The fighting was done
chiefly with artillery, on each side The Con,
federate officers have stated that they had no
masked Batteries butattrbuted their success,
such as it was, to their weil-served artillery
Their batteries were placed by the skirts of
scrub cedar that grows SO thickly on the run,
and were moved from point to point during the
So at Big Bethel, there were no
masked batteries as is now well known
from the statements of deserters and others who
were there"
