seventy men could resume the musset. l
assure you, | am most heartily sick Of the
sentimental tenderness We have shown these
miserable wretChes. A truely noble, intelli-
gent man can respect another without fearing
MIN, but these people are not of that stamp,
they have been taught differently from their
infancy. They have with the lash beat re-
spect for themselves into the outward action
oi the slave, and with the grinding heel of
aristocratic despotism, tire rich have forced
the poor into like manifestations of esteem.
The heart catches something Of the feeling
manifested outwardly, and they respect that
which they fear. When we have visited them
with terrible punishment, they will fear and
respect and obey the law, and not until then
will they do so. You have no adequate con-
ccption OF the ignorant, british stupidity of
these rebels. They are slaves. Southern
Chivalry Great Heavens what stupcn-
dous humhug. The chivalry of the sneaking,
cold bloodcd ingrate, who partaking Of his
hospitality, would plunge the assassn's dag ger
into the heart Of his host. | am getting ma
liciouS toward these wretches, whose devilish
work is making so many hitherto happy ONES
sad and deSOlate, who are madly striving to
tear down the iarcst fabric Of republican gov
crnnent the wisdom Of man ever dev ised ,
who are profaning every thing sacred and holy,
who are destroying everything noble, gen erous
and good, who are trarnpIing upon every prin-
clple OF rectitude and honor, that do not often
speak or write of them. 1 would not willing

If a law abiding citizen stops drunken rui-
fan in the act of abusing his family and
smashing his neighbours windows, would it be
right to make the good man pay the cost of
prosecution, and repair the damaged windows?
Such, in principle, is the question now before
the people of this country. DoughfaceS and
traitors say we'shOuld make loyal men pay the
expenses of the war, rather than conhscate the
property of the rebels.
