The present instance is an exception, and
that the whistler is a gesling. Il is
some foolish creature instigated by others
who are too cowardly to show them

agohizing cries no response Is made but
the clanling of their chains THESE men
who claim special regard, have stolen the
livery Of Heaven to serve the devilin, but
l am determined they shall feel the pow
er of tho government which they have
sought to destroy. Some protested TO
entertain holy horror Of coercion. Why,
force and terror have coerced the South
into her presentposition, and nothing but
force and power will bring her back.
You were cOcrced by the violence aad
force Of Secession, and the spirit Of
Secession must be subdued and control
led by force. The strong arm of the
Government must be barred and justice
must do her work. We may as well I'M
derstand the fact first as last, and 90 to
work nationally. Without force and
power to cOerce we have no Government,
How have matters gone ON heretofore?
Why when the Union army came hero the
first to run to it for protection and priv
ileges were Secessionists, who got prom
Uses of protection, if they would remain
neutral, On the other hand, the poor
Union men were terrified with threats of
vengeance il the rebel army should re-
turn. The Seoessionist was protected
by the Unian army, and was equally
confident of protection should the rebel
army return, 80 he fell! 7perfeS tly
easy Tho Union man dreaded utter
ruin, should a reverse OCCUR and was
filed with perpetual alarm, SO, ua der
this strange policy the rebel had h0o

Ihsy are the guilty ones. They are the
real criminals. The poor have been de
luded and dragged into this war, while
the authora and instigators who have
kept up The war by their money and con-
tributions, have skulked at home and de-
manded Che protection Of the Federal
Government. And what was the motive
Of many Of these men in Nashville for
bringing on and aiding the rebellion?
