The Nashville daily union. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1862-1866, 1862-08-06

We observed in the Nashville Union,
the other day, a statement TO the effect
that secessionists in that section liked to
read Northern journals which were either
Democratic or so far as we remember,
those Of a strictly Constitutional type.
The Union seemed to convey the idea that
this fact reflected some imputation upon
the journals so referred to. On the con-
trary, ii seems TO us most hopeful sign
on the part Of the secessionists in ques-
ton. Would the Union have these men
read the Tribune the Independent, the
RUeHiRg PoSP Or does il think any ben
eft would come of such studies? Their
selection Of their newspapers shows that
Unionism is not dead in their hearts, and
that they seek for evidence at the North
Of the principles and sentiments by
which alone the Union can be reinvigo-
rated. The Nashville Union might as
well object to sinners reading the Bible.
How else can they be onverted?-BosLon
Courier.
We were certainly very far from say
ing that secessionists like 10 read Demo-
cratic papers Unfortunately, but those
papers only which confine their labors TO
denouncingRepublicans,a and are so strict
ly constitutional that they lean towards
the rebellion. JEFF. DAVIS was always
strictly constitutional" and so were the
South Carolina delegations in Con gress
The Richmond Enquirer was SO delighted
with the "noble stand" made by BEN
WooD and YALANDIoHAM that it publish
ed their speeches, but does the Courier
infer from that that "Unionism is not
dead in the hearts" Of the Richmond
"proletarians," and that "tbey seek for
evidence at the North Of the principles
and sentiments, by which alone the
Union can be inyigOratedY' The Colv-
ier's theological illustration won't answer.
BEN. WooD, VALAEDIoHAM and the Gin
cinnati Enquirer are about as much like
loyalty, as Tou. PAISE's Age of Reason
is like the Bible.

First Tennessee infantry re giment.
We visited the camp Of this Regiment
a few days since, and were much pleased
at the lusty appearance Of the soldiers,
and the neatness or the tents an d camp
ground. They are an active, vigorous
body of men, and with the discipline
they are receiving from their experienced
commander, Col. G1LIUM, will make a
very efficient body of soldiers. Weplace
high hopes upon them, and feel assured
that they will not deceive us. This
Regiment has been organized SOg ever
four months, and has as yet oblsined no
pay. Il appears to us that il possesses
peculiar claims upon the Federal author
tiles. II was organized in the very hot
bed Of treason, against The flereest, open
and secret opposition ON the part of the
rebels, and its soldiers may truly claim
TO be the first fruits of Tennessee 10y atty.
They have borne much for their country,
and are ready to go to the utmost in her
cause. Many of these men have families
to support, and on examining the regi-
mental roll, we find that there are over
fUe hundred children in the families of this
Regiment. These children are peculiarly
the foster-children Of the Republic
Their fathers have rallied with musket
in hand to fight for their country, and as
they march under her flag the last re-
quest they make of her is, "Take care
Of our wives and our little ones We
will fight, yes, we will die for liberty if
God wills it, but we ask you countrymen
to protect those near and dear to u.s."
We hope these men who have cast the
,0ido,0's nite-tFeir all, into the treasury
of the Republic, will have their wants
speedily provided for

Erect of Intervention ON the south.


A strange delusion appears to possess
the minds Of disloyal persons on the sub
iect Of foreign Intervention in behalf Of
the rebel States--that is II any delusion
can be called strange which may possess
the mind Of Secessionist. They seem
to think that intervention would almost
instantly relieve the South Of all her bur-
dens, when it would only increase them
tremendously. Let US look at this mat
ter candidly, and consider the conse-
quences that would certainly follow
Every man in the North would instantly
see that the existence of the loyal States
was then at stake, and instead Of half a
million Of soldiers, two millions Of SOL
dicrs, armed, clothed and fed by them
selves, would pour out like Egyptian
lOcusts, over the revolted States, all burn
ing with rage and indignation unprece-
dented In the history Of the world. In
the next place, universal freedom would
be proclaimed, and all slaves who might
escape TO our lines would be armed
Does any rebel imagine that the slave
population could be held in subsection by
their owners for two weeks after such
proclamation was issued? What would
an English or French army amount to
If landed on our coasts They would be
swept off like chaff before whirlwind,
and not prisoner would be taken. How
many thousand troops could Great Brit
ain send across the Atlantic, three thou
sand miles, TO carry on such a warfare
as that? Would the men who whipped
the red-coats in 1912 be likely TO retreat
before them in 1862? Intervention would
thus be seen to end in the utter ruin Of
the revolted States. II is certainly the
widest idea that ever entered a lunatic's
head for the rebels TO seek such an alli-
ance. Some rebels profess to say that
slaves are as obedient now as ever; but
all intelligent men know that this is a
gross fAlsebood, with few exceptions, and
these exceptions are the result of remark
able eagerness displayed by some Federal
officers TO return slaves to their masters,
Every rebel knows that ninety-nine slaves
out Of q hundred will be the helpers of
the Federal Government wherever it may
choose to use them, and that choice will
be made as soon as intervention is de-
clared.
In case of intervention, every dollar of
our British debts will be repudiated for
ever. Not one cent of the hundreds OF
millions owing to England by this coun-
try will be paid. They will all be wiped
out by an act of Congress. 1t may be
we'll for England to inquire also where
she can buy grain hereafter for her star
wing people. Last year we sent her &C
per cent. of her imports of provisions I;
and if one-half or one fourth of that
amount shonld be cut of, her Govern
ment would tremble before mob. Our
opinion is, then, that Intervention is inn
probable, and that even if adopted, il
will be certain to ruin those who adopt it.

We invite special attention to this
Order issued by Col MILLER, command
ing officer at this post. II is very inn
portant that our armies subsist off the
enemy as far as possible, and thus ac-
complish the double work of exhausting
his resources and saving our own; but it
is also highly important that all requi-
sitions for provisions, provender, horses
wagons, negroes, &c, be made by the
proper officer. Nor should these requi-
sitions ever be allowed for the purpose
of private gain. They are intended for
the benefit of the United States Govern
ment. An illegal or unauthorized
seizure is robbery" says the Order, and
while the proper officers have the right,
and ought 20 exercise it, of Selling any
property Of the rebels for the use of the
Government without compensation, no
person has a right TO seize such property
without authority. If this were allowed,
the discipline, honor, and patriotism of
the army would soon perish utterly, and
our soldiers degenerate into rowing,
vagabond, pilfering horde, without dis
cipline or efficiency; absolutely growing
weaker in proportion to the increase of
their numbers. To prevent such an evil,
much vigilance aud circumspection are
needed in commanding officers. Take
corn, meat hay, oats. vegetables. poultry,
wood, teams, wagons-anything and
everything our armies need, but take
them by due exercise Of military author
ity, not by the unauthorized acts of a
predatory band Of soldiers. We must
live off the enemy. We must use his
means and resources; and what we can
not use, we must destroy if there be
danger that they will be used against us,
and for the injury Of the country but at
all times let us act through the proper
military authorities, and let every soldier
as he prides himself on being a man of
honor, act with strict integrity

The safety Of Tennessee, Of her pro-
perty, and her institutions, depends on
the maintenance Of the Federal Union.
In the Union all her interests will be
certainly protected, as they ever have
been, under its all-covering, and all-de-
Tending shield; out of it there is no inter-
est which is not wholly at the mercy of
the wild winds and turbulent pillows of
revolution and anarchy. Experience
proves this so clearly that it needs no ar
gument; the facts sustain onr position.
The Union has protected and will pro-
tect the loyal manufacturer, farmer,
mechanic, sailor, stakeholder and pro-
fessional man, but disuaton can protect
nothing. 1t is a mad demon, furious
but weak, or rather its strength is inn
potent for good but infinite for evil.

Apeoplo who have no Government have
nothing. The very beggar is, in such a
case, more TO be envied than the man of
fortune, for the wealth of the latter only
makes him the mark of robbers and

trying TO break up the Government for

What would be thought Of professed
court of justice, in time Of peace, which
should make no discrimination between
the w-abiding and the law breakers;
or il it make any discrimination, should
lean rather to the side Of the guilty, for
the purpose of conciliaiing them by its
leniency2 All men would exclaim that
such policy was insane, that it was an
outrage on common sense. And yet what
the conduct of the Court would be in
such a case, has actually been the policy
of the Federal Government toward the
loyal and disioyal in the seeded States.
1t has neglected, and in many cases OPP
pressed its friends while it protected and
favored its enemies. And throughout the
land, one loud cry of remonstrance goes
up against such faulty.
