n. the most csntankerous sre Northern pesrts
doniciIed smoDg us. There il q degree Of savsosrv
and ferocity among them pact all belief. All Hs
news we get is ope-sijed We hear little except of
splendid victories by tie Confedsratee, and the A..
siruction If thousands upop thousands of cowardlv
Yankees. For a man 10 admit the probability Of DE-
feat is bring down upon hlm fierce wrath and de.
puuciation of nothing wore. Northern men ara
ter.r~ref here, and the life OF such is not worth
Iiyine. After the battles OF Fooling Creek, Fort
Henry and Fort Doneson, the viperons spirit w0

AMONG many. spoke freely, especially 10 my own
house of what thought OF Secession and wa, and

me- but ! was rather TOO smart for them. One
| friend came and warned me that the Committee Of
Public Safety would have me before them, and my
answer Wac: "D--n them let them Gomez Ill

handle OF my faithful bowie and asked nie II

To use il if occasion required, and all assassins and
Committeeman had better keep away. They kept
away, bat il was about that time that an old and
good citizen, loyal and true, and lDoiiensive ~

lie was not afraid TO die and they might hang him
ii they wanted 70. And hang him they did, like

Some people think that il the Federal arms sbouM
triumph, the country would never be rednccd 70
Submission. do not Think however, that the feel
ing OF hatred could be increased beyond what it
was before the war. There WAS "A eonsp.racy 10 de-
strOythe niOn and ndOverhrowD Democratic lnstu,i0nS
ia progress for years, and Notwithstanding that l
he rd and the movements OF individual conspir-
atore did not believe It until after the war begun
aud he uaiis were stOpred. Then. by pnt,iog that
and this together and comparing notes with friends,
the whole ming was plaiu. TuOusand. nay mllons,
were rushed into the war with tie expectation that
soiae sort OF military arrangement would Dc mide
that gOli crush the Democratic element efietually,
restrict suffrage, prohibit REHABILITATION and grad
ugllv introduce monarhica element 70 iasidlously
tu.. IL would not be discovered until t0o late.
ile Democratic element is still strong among
tnsBy of the peOpie, but the lsaders are imbued
with lus. for ttfice and authority, aud, In great
part consist OF lawyers who never had cieols, doc
tu- who never had patients, and men generally who
bod never earned taeir own bread In one respect
the war has been OF immense benefit to our people,
"a Thousands have gone TO work dong something,
who never earned their Ell. before. II 1t will only
continue wear two GOre, 10 as 10 iet our folks
know what il is to be hungry, 1t VIII be blessing

earned a cent Ill their Lives.
I ob.erye, as tue war progresses, the fercesi
friends OF Disunion and the Uitterest among TIE
S4cessiouists falling, one by one, and in pairs
'lexas has lost soGc seven or eight already, and
needs 10 lose many more before che is purged. God
knoys what il 70 become Vf ur l think famine will

Tie polcy to let Texas slide and concentrate every

heard that two entire Union arries--one IN Mis-

saws he is tired OF the war, but the tell spirit of
drs ruction reigns among us. The war is Ike ore
of the moral epidcrics Iha. have swept over the
ia,s Of society il ageo past. may not live TO so
the end oi our troubles Jut hope 10 40 20. How"
ever 1t may be, II Is On chronological truth, es.ab-
li.aci by ali hum.n history, that people having
ooumga language mu,t lave common government.
Palty slriios must yield Eua!ly. iSe IN hopes.
