Vallandfgham.

Our amiable Republican friends are
very much exercised about Vs|laHdigbam.
They are sorely pu. out with him, and find
fault with all his doings as if they really
dreaded his influence Vallandigham hap
pens to be a sound and fearless Democrat
and nowiSe meanly y-mouthed in denouncing
the Niger policy and corruption of this
administration and hence their Hatred
against him. Failing to drive him into
disloyalty by their cry Of Orator. which
they freely apply to every Democrat, they
have taken another tack and now charge
him with the beinous crime of being the
"le7der Of Me Bjeckturidge Den,ocyacyr"
This is very strange Vallandigham never
belonged to that wing of the party, and
condemns the course of Breckinridge In
forsaking the Union as strongly IS any
man can. He was the personal friend aua
champion of Douglas and the leader Of
the "Douglas party" in Ohio. In the
third Congressional District, from which
he is the Representative, he received H..
os2 votes. The same year when Breck.
inridge was the Presidential candidate he
received, in the whole Of Vallahdighem's
District, less than two hundred and fifty
votes. It is cruel to make Vallaudigham
the leader Of Che "Rreckin7isge party"
when he never was a Breckenridge man,
and still more SO when he has such scanty
material out of which to form ga Breck.
saaradge party" in his own District ! Tho
secret of the whole matter is this--there
is no Breckenridge or Douglas party now
and that is the trouble, In tie undivided
Democracy they read their doom and that
accounts for the sour milk in the Repub.
lican ccaco-nut. John Forney, from day
to day, is warning his party that tho
united Democracy will crush it out and
they had better believe him.

"What beautiful morning !" exclaimed
Sibyl Stevens, as, prcttily equipped for o
morning wald, she left her father cottage.
This was pretty little building, notwith.
standing it was composed of logs, fer they
were almost completely hidden from view,
BY clGmbering vines, which were now in
all their glory of leaf and flower. This
building stood in the center of small
clearing, which was surrounded by a
grand cid forest Immediately surround
ing the house, were a number of beautiful
trees, which, being q favorite resort of
the merry songsters of the air, that in
spring and summer carroled their melodi-
GUS notes under their shelteriDg branches,
gave rise to the name Sibyl bestowed up>
on her home, "The Birds Nest"
Sibyl Stevens was girl CT about oigh-
teen years CT agc---a very queen of beauty.
In form she was faultless, rather fragile,
but symctrioal, ard she was as graceful in
movement as she was in form; at the same
time as dignifed, yet affable in manners,
as SIZE was graceful in form and movement.
She possessed cheerful, animated d;spo.
sition, and loved nature profoundly.
Her father formerly was rich mor-
chant of Philadelphia. His wife vas Q
woman of almost angelic purity and beau
ty. They were blest with four bright
children, the eldest Of whom is Sibyl, the
other three were bright, lovely boys. Mr..
Stevens loved bis wife as men seldom love;
and his children he idclized. But, alas 4!
fearful epidemic seized upon them, and
bore Mrs. Stevens and her three little sons
from the world, in single day. They
we're buried in one grave, The agonies
of parting with them, seemed almost too
much fer the boreaved ones to bear, aud,
believing they would be happier when
there would not be SO many things to re-
mind them of their loss, they resolved to
remove to some secluded place, where they
could spend the spring and summer in re-
sirement, and in autumn and winter go to
some village, where sibyl could attend q
select school. Thus it was, they came and
established themselves at "The Birds
Nest" Hero they spent the spring and
summer; Mr.. Stevens in the exciting pur-
suits of the hunter and fisherman, for
game abounded in the surrounding forest,
while short distance from his cottage
was pretty little lake, called Silver Lake,
10 which the fnny tribes dwelt in great
abundance. While he was engaged in
.hese wild end exciting pursuits, Sibyl

,WEAT ,PARsoN BRowNIow SAYS
Parson Browhlow enunei ates sentiments
very different from those of Wendell Phil
lips. In o recent speech he says -
".Ihat he knew not what might be the
sentiments of the audience he was ad.
dressing; he did not desire to wheedle the
North because he was in the North, nor
did he favor the South when he was in
the South, but he would say that if one
hundred Of the rank, talented, notorious
and corrupt Abolitionis:s of the North,
aud one hundred Of the mean, thieying,
dirty and corrupt Secessionists, wAo have
been leaders in the South had been taken
to Washington months ago and strung up
in the public square, and their souls sent
to h--ll, we would never have been sad
dened with our present troubles"
Well done Parson. Give it to them.--
TIE psopls know you are right.

SeS The Abolitionists had great res pect
for the rights of the people during the
bleeding Kansas controversy. They
considered it B@-Gsr nufianism to adopt
& Coaasit1tiOn without submitting it to the
people. d..
But how changed a few days ago,
when the bill to abolish slavery in the Dis.
arict cf Columbia was brought up in the
Senate, MIR. Wiley of Virginia, moved to
amend the bill as to allow tie people of
the District to vote upor tie subject. But
the whole abolition clan opposed and de-
feated it, and at once passed the bill with =.
out having any respect for the rights or
property OF these people.

DESTRUCTION OF WAR.-A corrsspon.
dent of Western paper, who has lately
visited Now Madrid, says, that the town
presents very bad spectacle. WAo
blocks of houses have beer Destroyed by
the rebels in ogde. to obtain a clear sweep
for their guns; and even this wholesals
destruction of property does not appear SO
badly as the buildings which axe partially
destroyed, bored through and through With
hot and torn with she'll, leaving just en-
ough Of them to show what they once had
had been. There are none of its iahab.
itants left-not onc--and many years will
elapse before the town will be what il once
was. ''t' N' '', ,--

MORE EoLLY.-The bill to abolish sla-
very in the District Of Columbia has been
signed by the President, and is therefore
a law of the land. Amongst other pro-
visions it appropriates ONE MILLION
QF DOLLARS to pay che value of the
slaves to their owners, and 100000 to
pay the expenses Of such of the released
'alsves as may wish 20 emigrate to Hayti,
Liberia, or elsewhere. This is another
beautiful specimen of Abolition Legisla-
ton. At time like this, when the ma
ton is plunged deeply inc debt, and the
people will soon be made to groan under
a heavy load Il taxation fer the support
of the war, and mad fanatics who rule at
Washington throw away a whole million

GENERAL SDoTT's OPINION OF Nc
CLELLAN.-The enemies of Gen. McClel-
Ian must vince under the he arty end
honest expression of confidence which the
veteran General Scott has just delivered
in the SIX III and loyalty of the young COM
mander at Yorktown. In speaking Of
General Mcclellan and Halleck to his
friends at Elisabeth on Saturday, Gen,
Scott said:---
There are two men that can be depend.
ed upon under all circumstances and in
every emergency-I mean General Ne
C!ellan an5 General Halleck. There is
no doubt they must take things as they
meet them, and they have great opposition
to contend with but Mcclellan is at this
moment at the very wcrk his heart loves.
and which will call forth all the abilities
of his powerful ri;Hd-that Of trenching,
engineering and besieging. And in re-
gard to General Halleck, but will do Lis
work like soldier. There can be no
fear of ttese two able soldiers doing any
base or disloyal act. They are honest to
the core, and will never bctray their coun.
try. ..
We do not see how the cowardly aboli.
ton assailants Of Gen. Mcclellan are 60
ing to get over this, unless they impugn
the Judgment and experience Of General
Scott, and begin now to attack tho war
worn and honored veteran himself.

Philadelphia who used TO visit at ytur
house so frequently, but did expect to
be recognized by your daughter"
go, Herbert st. Clair!" calculated
Sibyl, bounding tG his side, and extending
her soft, white hand, which he took in both
his, and pressed fervently to his lips !;
"Herbert it has been two long years since
I saw you, and you have changed much
in that time, yet at any other time l should
have instantly recognized you, but, in the
excitement of such an occasion as this, is
it so be wondered at that I did not know
youl'
The father now greeted him warmly;
after which the trio proceeded to the
house, Mr.. Stevens, much weakened by The
loss of blood, leaning on Herbert for sup.
port.
Herbert ST. Clair, as already stated
was the son Of Mr., Stevens chosen friend
in Philadelphia. Silby yl and young ST.
Clair, attended the same school, and, chill
dren though they were, each entertained
fer the other a sincere and growing affec-
ton, and when they we're about to leave
the city, Herbert came to bid her farewell
With tears in his eyes be said:--
"Sibyl we are now about to part, may
not have permission to meet you at your
home in the far west? Darling 1 love you
spurn not my boyish love, for it is as strong
and as devoted as though were o ful
grown man. I am az Artist ,-several o
my pictures are already in the Market
when you are gone, I will redouble my
diligence, 1 will win fame--rnay not thel
come and claim you as my own Sibyl!
"Hcrbert, you have told me that yol
have loved me, receive my assurance, now
as am about to leave you, that the SEN
timent that warns your noble heart, beat
as high in mine. You have asked it,
will be yours, yours forever;' was her re
ny.
Thus they parted; and he had nov
come 20 ask her to redeem her promise,
He had gained fame he was an artist
one of Z .:rerics best His promise wa
now fulfilled, and he askek her to fulfil
hers. Mr.. Stevens sanctioned the match
and in less than three Veeks from that da.
they we're OIL wedding tour tc Philadel
phia.
Years have passed since then. Mr.
Stevens is now III his grave, Herbert St.
Clair and his lovely wife are just in tn
prime of life; theirs has been, indeed,
happy lot. Three children have been Civ
en- them to gladden. their hearts, the youn
gost of which, charming little lass, wit
wayy, auburn hair, the very picture ofhe
mother, is called Siby..
Upon the site of "T. B. N" is ere cte
a splendid mansion, which is now, Nj
ST. Clair's country residence, while th
village We have spoken of, has becom
a fourishing city, the capital of one of tn
western states, and contains The Govern
ors mansion, now occupied by Herbe,

Why not Abuse Jeff. Davis 7


Nothing perhaps shows the utter igno.
rance of the posture Of our national affairs
than the question "why don't you abuse
JEFF. DAvIsl"
What have we got to do with jeff. Da-
Wis but fight him! What good would it
do to abuse man you fghtl We have
nothing whatever to do with Jeff. Davis or
his Government; our praise or abuse Of it
would not effect single man in his iuris-
diction, nor reach his esr. We are nei-
ther responsible for his Government, his
debts, nor his army. And all we know
about it is what we get through Republi.
can papers, who have never failed, it would
eesm, to hold contraband comm uncation
SO far as to get held of Southern papers.
We get JEFF. Davis message t0 his Con-
gress through the Cincinnati Commercial
and Beauregard's Order through the
Ohio Stale Journal, both of which will be
found in cur paper without note or COM
ment.
But we will state with whom We have
to do--and that is with Abraham Lin
coin, &nd eYeEy ether person who Eolds
Office in the Union, and for whose acts we
are responsible, and of whose good or bad
deeds we have got to feel the effects for
all time to come. Our liberties are iu
the hands of Mr.. Lincoln our army of
700 900 men is in his hands for veal or
for woe-eSery dollar of property is Sub
ject under the 'war power, end e reckless
ignorant Congress, to their use and abuse.
All that I'VE the people have in the world
life, liberty, property, Constitution and
government, are in their hands, and we
, would be base traitors to our trusts if we
did not act as faithful watchmen.
) We send armies to the field to look af
ter Jeff. Davis, and it is due that army
that we see that no harm comes of the
country in its home and civil capacity
: while they are looking after JEFF. Davis.
We cahrot be caught in any such trap
as to turn our attention to that whicl
S would be of no particle Of use, instead O.
doing our duty where patriotism, country
liberty and constitutional government de-
, mand our labors.
. During our Revolutionary war, ucithel
the whole British press, ncr the whole O
the British statesmen, spent their time in
accusing "the rebels" but kept a very
atrict watch upon the acts of the homj
government, to see how they managed th
affair. Instead of being traitors for s,
doing, they became the trusted and tru,
friends of the British Government, and S,
= they stand to this day in British history
They did not oppose and denounce tn
British King and Cabinet, because they
wanted to lose the Colonies, but becaus,
q they had regard fer the honor of thci
q own Government, and taa interests of tn
British people.
Our Government being one of tie PEG
+. pie, and not of Kings, how much NOR
responsibility rests upon us, that we watc1
with the eys of patriotic vigilance, an
