Gov Andrew, of Massachusetts, is i'll hot
! water about his military order intended to
menace the South. Among many letters of
I remons trance from patriotic military men in
! the State, is one from Capt. Charles II. Man
ming, of the Salem Artillery. He says
They, the Salem. Light Artillery, are now
! filled with as stonishment at the alaerlty with

| work of war against her brethren. That she
J who swept on by political rancor, proposed
TO shut up her arsenals and her store-Aouses,
and bury every military ensign IN the dusty
secluson of deserted annories, while Il foreign
! foe was sweeping our seas, destroying our
towns, and devastating our fields-that she
/ should now rush to arms against those Oh her
| fellow citizens who ask 1or q position equ;ii
| with her own under the confederati tion, is as
strange and unnatural as that national mad
ness which vents itself i'll the horrors OF civil
strife. That she who denounced and dehed
the Union, while it was i'll the hands OF heI
political opponents, should now be eager Jc
fight for is preservation, Is somewhat sighih
cant.
1t is impossible that the great industrial in.
terests of Massachusetts can be benefited by
active hostilities. Her commerce depends up
Oh amicable relations throughout our land
Her manufactures cannot flourish Whlle

would oppress them. TO them fraterna

lust recognition of Cons titutlonal right every

These blessings cannot be secured by force o
arms And while our intelligence remains Il
us. shall we not, as free people guided by th
wisest counsels, and impelled by the broades
impulses, appeal to that spirit OF CONCESSION
