IToLD YOU so.


There are men in every community who
consider it the very acme of wisdom to use the
cant, threadbare expression-sI told you so'-
whenever an event happens which crude o.
pinion of theirs, founded on no sufficient data,
may have predicted. 1t is 4 species of self
gloritication, harmless in itself, but some
times irritating to men of mature Judgment
who are accustomed to reason from cause to
effect and weigh we'll every step they intend to
take. Although in ninety y-nne instances such
either fall short of or overShoot the mark,
should one accidental shot drive the center it
makes them, in their own estimation, deposi
tories of all the wisdom and sagacity of the
age. Such lucky circumstance dlates the
gnat to the massive proportions of the man.
moth. Such men are occasionally officious
Intermediates, but their meddlng being caus-
ed by the union of weak intellect with
kind disposition, the offence is generally over
looked, and the merited rebuke rarely admin
istered. 1t is unfortunate in these latter
times, when the political elements are trou-
bled and it requires clear heads, energetic
minds, and hearts filed with forbearance and
per channel, that this class should have so
many imitators and still more unfortunate,
that these imitators would rather see fire and
sword desolate the land than that they, as
prophets, should be without honor in their
own country. These men, raised from the
slough of politics to some minor positions in
their party, have adopted unguarded or intem-
perate expressions of their leaders as the rev.
Citations of the oracle. Like eggs floating upon
the bosom of stream, they driven along
the current of time and while they boast of
their facility to swim, they seem unaware that
they lack the weight which gives value, and
that they are but exposing the rotteDness-the
corruption within. Their names figured in
some long array of officers at township meet
ing, and they were at once seized with the
idea that a discerning public had discovered
in them some latent talent. They must seize
the helm if Chary bdis and Scvlla are to be
avoided. They are Solons, in self-conceit.
They have an ambition to govern, but not
resemblance of those traits which marked the
greatAthenian can be found in them. 1t would
be herculean task to convince them that
they are mere machines operated on, and used
for purpose, by men behind the scene.
When time and prudent and lenient measures
of the government shall have dispelled the
cloud which now overshadows MS, will each cry
out-ssI told you so l''--or will their vanity
be gratifed in exclaiming-sswe knew you
would back down ?''

THE SOUTHERN CoNFEDERACY.-Ths people
composing the called Southern Confedera-
cy, viii soon realize, if they have not already,
the cost and inconvenience which must result
from separate organization. Their govern
ment will, of necessity, be an expensive one,
a fact which viii be fully realized when the
tax-colector makes his call on those who are
able to pay. This viii do more to dispel the
dclusion which prevails in the South than any
reasoning which can at present, be offered for
their consideration. Direct taxes always car
ry with them powerful arguments and ap-
peals to the pocket have generally more effect
than those made to the understanding. The
productions OF the North which they have so
long used, and with which they cannot now
dispense, must reach them at greatly increas-
ed rates; and while they thus taxing them
selves to maintain an expensive bauble, the
northern capital upon which they have here
tofore relied, in the shapeaof extended credits,
will be withdrawn, and the seeming wealth of
the cotton lords will vanish as the .sbaseless
fabric Of a dream.''

INVASION OF THE NoRTH.-Some of the fire.
eaters seem really TO entertain the idea of an
invasion of the North. A Charleston cores
pondent of The Richmond Dispatch writes.
The project which hinted at yesterday of an
invading army, find is now the order of the
day, and that the battle ground will be chang
ed from South Carolina to another locality no.
ten thousand miles from yon, is in INV jndg-
ment fixed fact. If / were to predict that
in sixty days the City of Washington would b.
razed so that plow share should be run over
the place where now Lincoln nervously rests
and that magnificent monument of former
greatness. the Capital, would be blown sky
high, might not in such prediction be a false
prophet. L, like many Southern man, have
few cents invested in that other monument
begun years ago to the memory OF George
Washington, which monument, if left to Black
Republicans keeping, L hope TO sec rent in
twain from top to bottom. Some of your sub
mission readers may call this vandalism. Il
matters not with me what they call ii; that
monument will never be allowed to stand on
Black Republican soil, and you may take that
as another pre- 1ictiOn. II you will look TO The
Courier of the date of the 9Th inst, you will
see my invading plot limited at there. ..The
Southern heart is fired' now, and that fire will
not be easily quenched, nor will ii be, fear
unless it be quenched in blood.

The HOME SoUADRoN.-Mos of the vessels
composing the Home Squadron, were at New
York last week. and are ready for immediate
service. The list comprises 26 vessels, car
rying 100 guns and 2,757 men. This is the
largest naval force ever concentrated in one
squadron since the organization of the United
States Navy. 1t consists of more ships than
the Channel fleet of England. 1t is obvious
that important naval movements arc in con-
temptation by the Government.
