Suffering Women.

Hearts are breaking with anxious sus-
pense throughout the South for sons and
for husbands Joined to desperate and
wicked cause. And many instances are
reported, where ladies plead with loved
ones to return to loyalty and happi-

I'VE know of instances where loving
wives have begged their husbands to
let the rebellion alone and yield peace

or rather Southern madness and crime.

Gen. ROsseau, OF Kentucky.

Gen. Rosseau, of Kentucky. is one
of those Border State loyalists whose
loyalty means something. He orgsn-
lied the first regiment of loyal Kentuck-
ians, and has since proved Ibis devotion
to the Union in every way, Unlike
the rebel sympathisers of the North, he
does not even prize slavery above ma
tional unity and honor, for we find that
in a speech at dinner in Louisville on
the 10th ult, he exposed what be calls
this insane cry of abolitionism as a
pretext for breaking up the Govern
ment and gave testimony, the more
forcible as it came from southern man,
that, however kindly the sccessionists
are treated by our soldiers and COM
manders, the negro is in the way, in
spite of all that con be done or said.
Standing before the eye Of the seces-
sionist, says Gen. Rosseau. the negro
hides all the blessings of our Govern
ment, throwing black shadow on the
sun ITSELF He adds
IF it had been any other species Of
property that stood in the way, the ar
my, provoked as it had been, would
willingly have seen its quick destruction.
But the negro they did not wish to in
terfere with in any way. Yet, with oil
its conservativeism, the army has grown
weary of the insane cry Of abolitionism
as cause for breaking up the Govern
ment.'
In the same speech he says:
L have warned our southern friends
of the danger Of continuing it much
longer; and / tell you tonight, if this
war continues year from this day, there
will not be slave on this continent
The great revolution will take care of
itself-the dead will bury the dead-and
those who are causing all the bloodshed
and desolation around US, under the
false pretence that we desire to free
their negroes, will, if they persist. one
day find slavery snuffed out as you would
snuff out candle. Slavery is not worth
our Government. 1t is not worth our
liberty. 1t is not worth all the precious
blood now being poured out for free
dom. It is not worth the free naviga-
ton of the Mississippi river. No, we
must still have our Govcrnment--if not
as it now is, with slavery in it, still We
must have our Government. We can
not be slaves to jeff. Davis d, Co. We
must and will bo free. We must have
the free navigation of the Mississippi
river and if slavery gets in the way Of
any of these rights. why slavery must
get out Of the way. That would be the
last resort, and should be sorry to have
recourse to it but am for the govern
ment of our fathers against all things

Gen. Butler Explains his Famous
"WOman Orders

Gen. Butler to friend in Boston, ex-
planning the motives which induced him
to issue his famous "Woman's order :"
! Headquarters, Department Of the
GuIf, New Orleans. July 2, 1862
My Dear sir.-I am as jealous of the
good opinion of my friends as am l
careless of the ISLANDERS of my enemies,
and your kind expressions in regard to
Order No % leads me to say word on
the subject.
That it ever could have been so mis-
conceived as it has been by some por-
tions of the Northern press is wonderful,
and would lead one to exclaim with the
Jew, %. Father Abraham, what these
Christians are, whose own hard deal
ings teach them to suspect the very
thoughts of Others
What was the state of things to which
the woman order applied?
We were two thousand five hundred
men in city seven miles long by two
to four wide, of hundred and fifty
thousand inhabitants, hostile, bitter, de-
fant, explosive, standing literally on a
magazine, a spark only needed for de-
struction. The devil had entered the
hearts of the women of this town, (you
know seven of them chose Mary Mag
dalen for a residence), to stir up strife
in every way possible. Every oppro-
brious epithet, every insulting gesture
was made by these bejewellcd, becrino-
lined and laced creatures, calling them
selves ladies', towards my soldiers and
officers, from the windows of houses and
in the streets. How long do you sup
pose our flesh and blood could have
stood this without retort q?
That would lead to disturbance and
riot, from which we must clear the
streets with artillery-and then howl
that we murdered these fine women.-
| had arrested the men who hurrahed for
Beauregard. Could l arrest the wo-
men? No. What was to be done p
No order could be made save one that
would execute itself. With anxious,
careful thought I hit upon this: 'Wo-
men who insult my soldiers are to be
regarded and treated as common wo-
men plying their vocation
Pray how do you treat common wo-
man plying her vocation in the streets ?
You pass her by UNDECIDED. She cannot
insult you. As a gentleman you car
and will take no notice of her. If she
speaks, her words are not opprobrious.
1t is only when she becomes continu-
Gus and positive nuisance that you call
a watchman and give her in charge to
him.
But some of the Northern editors seem
to think that whenever one meets such
a woman one must stop her. talk with
her, insult her, or hold dalliance With
her. and so from their own conduct they
construed my order.
The editor of the Boston Courier may
so deal with common women, and out of
the abundance of bis heart his mouth
may speak-but so do not l.
Why, these she-adders of New Or
leans themselves were at once shamcd
into propricty of conduct by the order, |
and from that day no woman has either |
insulted or annoyed any live soldier or
officer, and of certainty no soldier has
insulted any women.
When l passed through Baltimore on
the 23d Of February last, members of
my Staff were insulted BY the gestures
Of the ladies () there. Not 60 in New
Orleans. !
