Ter, a paper which was much lees anxious to enter
upon the sea of war than its cotemporary, The Mer

first began to sprout in that hot-bed of treason,
shows the depth of the misery brought upon the

calamitous visitation grow more direfn with every

anxiety and bleeding from bereavement are rent
with grief and the friend who sympathized with
some afflicted one YESTERDAY, to-day Weeps bitter
deeper, and cur burdens become more and more
heavy. And though more than eighteen months
have passed away since the strife was begun, the
end seems more distant than it appeared TO be Il
twelve-month since. Hope after hope mas gone out
in darkness, and expectations we bad iondly cher
ished have turned out TO be miserable deusions. SO
often have we been disappointed and deceived, that
now faith rejects every promise ana turns away
from every sign. Our foe Is as active ana deter.
mined and powerful as ever he was, and TIE agent
that was to compel foreign nations 10 intervene and
put an end to this wicked and infamous contest, hts
not been potent enough TO accomplish that end.
We stand alone. Vast hosts are mastering to
repeat in stronger force and with more OBJ
stinate courage the attempts that have been
made, and strongh0ds hitherto unattached will
soon have 10 bear the most furious oDsaughts the
enemy, with his wonderful resources Of ingenuity
and material, is capable of making. To frustrate

tacks, we have 10 depend entirely upon ourselves.
The foe will do HE utmost; military genius ana
