SABBATH FIGHTING.
From the Ypsilanti Sentinel.

From the Ypsilanti Sentinel. - -s r. az
A portion of the religious press 10 ter.
ribly exercised with the thought that the
battle of Stone Bridge-we don't like
the sound Of Bull Run--wss fought on
Sunday.
Ono writer says:
"Let Christians be true to their con-
victions, and rcbuke this insult to God
and the religion of the land, and this un
fortunate battle will certainly be the last
pitched by us on the Lords day.
In oar Bible "Remembcr the Sabbath
day, to keep it holly" and "Thou shalt
not kill stand in the same category. 1t
Informs us that the two commands were
written by the same God, on the same
tables Of stone and given by the "said
God" to Moses as the law of the Jewish
people. Now we want to see the author
ity by which Christian, teachers set up the
paramount obligation Of the first and ig-
more the latter. They cannot derive it
from Christ, the author Of that beautiful
system Of Divinity of which many give
US such unworthy examples, for H
tsught'quite differently. If we may in.
fer any difference between the two in his
teachings, We must place the the latter
far before the former. For Hc constant
ly inculcatss peace He blssses peacemak-
srs; He councils non-resistance and to do
good for evil. But of tho Sabbath, He
says: "The Sabbath was made for man,
not man for the Sabbath" Clearly i'm
plying that the opportunities of that day
are not TO be lost in . superstitions or
formal observance. Mcdowell pitched
battle as quick as he could, to defeat
Beaurogard, if possible, before. the srri-
val of Johnston, and was just little too
late for the arrival of the first brigade Of
the reinforcement decided the action.
Had he waited until Monday, will those
gentlemen assure us that the Lord would
have kept back Johnston? Had he been ut.
terly routed, will they assure us that they
would not have been as ready to censure
the unnecessary delay, and assure us that
in such holy cause, it was not descra-
ton TO fight on the Sabbath. The recruits
that went into the battle were all dismiss
ed from their homes with religious and
other ceremonies, many of then on Sun
day, but we do not remember that they
wero cautioned not to 60 into action on
that day. gut yuf -q.snffIa
Finally: If "Christians" can prevent
another fight being "pitched on the
Lords day." we respectfully ask that
they put on little more steam--"ineatere
rim rmtis," as Juno said to Eolus--and
prevent any more battles being fought at
all. AVN '' r.'- 0....
Let us sing ~
y. ".Peaoe is the blessing that ] seek,
How lovely are its charms;
Lam for peace-but when l speak
They all declare for arms"
And now, dear brstheren may the
grace of goodness descend upon, rest,
and abide with you for ever. Amen.

The Monroe Doctrine.

We learn from the Charleston Mercury that
the Confederate States, by their secession
from the Federal Union, have no further use
for the "MOnroe Doctrine" which, we sup
pose. will be LETT in the undisputed posses
sion of the United States Government. The
language of the Mercury to this effect is as
follows: E
SIT is the policy of the Confederate States
to seek and cultivate the most intimate and
friendly relations with all other Slave,Old-
ing States. The Monroe doctrine-the doc
trine of Southern statesmen when ruling the
counsels of the United States-goes with the
dissolution of the Union of the United States.
Cuba is no longer of any use to the Southern
States as a counterpose to the growing and
insolent ascendancy OF the North. She may
be valuable friend and ally. The more
prosperous and powerful she is the better for
the Confederate States. and the wider Spain
can extend the Institutions of Cuba over adj
jacent islands the more worthy she becomes
to be our ally"
As we learn from the Charleston Mercury
the Monroe doctrine was established and adj
yocated at the South for reasons which ceased
10 exist on the secession of the Cotton States,
so also we learn from the Jackson Mississip-
plan that that journal favored the revival of
the foreign slave trade in the Union solely
on the ground of its political necessity, to
counterfeit the effect of foreign Immigration.
by which the balance of power was being
transferred so rapidly to the Free States
To this we may add the view presented by
the Rev. DIR. Thornwell of South Carolina.
who states that the agitation of this question
i'm the South was merely an "extreme,n gene

opposition to slavery, and which was advo-

one Bob Stark, who is believed to have been

of West Tennessee, and had gone to jackson
for the purpose of receiving his commission
and qualifying himself.
He was attacked by Stark on the street.
who attempted TO stab him, but was prevent

visited the hotels in search of Gardner, who
left in the morning train for home, bat who
says be will return on Saturday and take the
oath of Office in the Court house at jackson.
He will, il is presumed, be accompanied by
come of bis friends. who will Ego his security"
in more senses than one.
The rowdies and minute men in jackson
swear that the Unionists shall not hold their

plucky and swear they tciH
TINS We. Tennesseans, can at length begin
TO see how our brethren of the seeding States
were bullied into submission, and how the
Uaion was broken up; but We tell them this
sort of thing will not win in Tennessee. If
the meeting there is broken up on Saturday,
we promise them that any day they may ap-
point, sufficient number OF freemen from

From the clarkgville chronicle.l

EDITOR CHRoNICLE:-Recently have obser-
we'd several communications published in the
Union papers in this Congressional District,
calling upon Tennessee's distinguished son,
the Hon. John Bell, to become a candidate
for Congress. Sir, there is no man in the
State whom L would delight to honor more
than Col. Bell; and yet / must confess that
it is with deep regret, that perceive the eff
fort made to throw aside faithful public
servant. in the person of Gen. Quarles. A
seat in Congress could add no lustre to the
brilliant fame OF the statesman of Tennessee.
Nor can l perceive that the position of Con-
gresham would enable him to exert any
greater influence for the good of his country
than now? The reputation of Col. Bell for
sagacity and wisdom is national, yea, sUorid-
acide, and will not bis cOuntrymen heed his
warning words and advice, spoken from the
sylvan woods of Tennessee, as readily as if
Numbered from Congressional floors? And
again, we will need him in our Border States
Convention, and perhaps in National Con-
vention. Either of these positions would be
congenial to his feelings, and appropriate to
his commanding station, at this critical time
of our national troubles. Col. Bell cannot
desire the nomination in opposition to Gen
Quarles. And / am surprised that have not
yet seen card from him, declining to become
a candidate in opposition to our late faithful
and efficient Representative, the firm and
steadfast friend of John Bell, the man who
first unfurled the banner to the breeze, two
years ago, inscribed with the name of John
Bell for the Presidency; who labored ardent
ly and successfully to secure him the nomin-
alton at Baltimore, and who made for him the
first ratification speech delivered in America,
and who has ever stood forward as the able,
eloquent and ever ready defender of Col.
Bell and his policy, and who fought for him
in the last canvass wherever there were blows
to he given.
When l remember these personal services,
and the friendship that exists between the
two men, cannot, for a moment, think that
the Hon. John Bell will stand in the way of
the General. when it is known that he desires
a denomination.
In every other District in the State, no
doubt but that the same Union members of
Congress will be re- nomination. Why should
Gen. Quarles be prescribed? Has he misrep-
resented the sentiments of his people? Has
he failed in the discharge of any of his du-
ties? The record answers No! And the
people of this Congressional District answers
emphatcally No They have endorsed his
course in every county in the District. Why,
then, this effort at prescription? Let the
politicians answer. The people of this Con-
gressional District have demanded no change.
Then let there be no division in our ranks.
Let the Hon. Jas. NJ. Quarles be returned to
Congress. Tennessee will fad another post
of honor for her Bell to fill.

IFrom the National IntelIigencer.
Our Duty to Mexico.

The impression that the recent military
and naval movements of the Government
are, in part at least, directed towards the
operations in Texas, continues to prevail
among large number OF the public press.
AS it is known that portion of the military
stores were shipped at New York for Brasos
Santiago and that cleerances were taken out
for that port, it is surmised by some that the
Government intends to establish at once on
the western frontier of Texas fortified post,
with view to keep up connexion with in
terror military posts, and hold in check
Mexican and Indian enemies.
1t will be remembered by our readers that
the Federal Government is under obligations,
by the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, nego-
tiated at the close of our war with Mexico,
to defend the frontiers of that country, as
well as of Texas and of our Mexican acuui-
sitions, against incursion and depreciation by
the Indians. The article of the treaty to this
effect is as follows:

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE PERMA-

State Convention, after the ratification of the
Confederate States Constitution, passed GER
tain resolutions suggesting to the Southern
Congress certain amendments to the new
Constitution, among which was the following
important provision offered by Mr.. Orr:
Strike out the I'd clause of the Sth section
of the lst Article, and insert: The Congress
shall not contract any debt except for war
purposes, and all expenditures in excess of
revenues from imports (Which shall not ex-
coed fifteen per cent ad ualoren) and other
sources, shall be met by direct taxation. to
be provided for by the Congress authorizing

then proceeds to dispatch the export duty of
the seeded States in the following unsparing
fashion
For a single year the consumers of cotton
may be made to pay tribute in the shape of
an export duty to the planters of Georgia and
Alabama. We ourselves in India have con-
trived to levy such a tribute upon the Chi
nese, in the shape of an export duty on
opium. But the English are not likely to
submit to this kind of treatment with as
much patience as the Chinese, and the South
ern States must make up their minds to pay
for whatever funds they may raise in this
manner by the permanent destruction of their
principal article of export. All the Adolf
tionists of the North and West never dealt
such blow at Slavery as she will suffer at
the hands of her chosen champions, from the
imposition OF the tax upon the export of
cotton.
becoming thoroughly alarmed at the pre-
carious tenure on which they hold their
supply of raw material. The imposition of
an export duty will put an end to all hesita-
ton in the minds of those at whom it is d.
rectly leveled, and everything that British
capital, skill, combination, enterprise and in
fuence can effect, will be done, in order to
