The Rebel oonserIption.

Lawrence OBJ. Branch, formerly a mem.
bar Of Congress from North Carolina, and
now a rebel General, recently issued an
address to the discOntentel troops of his
state. in which this passage occurs:
"Be assured that the government will

a Law that should keep you 10 service.
without at the same time compelling those
who have rendered no se9yies 10 take the
field, would be shocking to the moral sense
Of the Confederacy,p
Apparently apprehensiye that soft words
will fail, Branch winds up with a threat /:
"Let no evil designing persons, insits
