4. 10 TAN PsoEIs an Tex 4s.-- Whereas, q battle
fought at Manassas on the 2lst0f July 1851 i'm
which our troops we're victorious, and the enemy
like sheep in wolf time; and, whereas the
S15oras cL Of that battle has proved more disas-
rons To our interests than any other blow we have
sTeceiyad since the commencement Of the present
shostilties therefore knew all able bodied, fight
ing men, that the sentiment which has heretofore
prevailed this mat must be corrected.
IAN ut you who have asserted that one Southern
man Gan, Al things being whip ten Yankees,
ans Who. acting on this ppositon, refuse to en-.
rage iii the strife now raging g because there are
ALREADY men enough in the field, Z must disabuse
yDnrselyes Of this gross error am az well ac-
qnainted thA people ia the Norti, as am with
lid people Hsthe South, and tell you that they
are NOT all coWaras neither is the majority Of
them towards. "A man IS not neoe ssarily g brave
man because he lives south of Mason and niAon's
line. either ID be a coward because he lives
north III it, "a man born 5 coward in the North,
viii remain coward, even though he spends his
days iii the South and as the aMers say, uice

pare fayorably with our ow They are better
armed and equipped than we are, Or ever can be,
