shows 50 much more ofcoolness Of judg.
ment and caldor of mind than we are in
the habit of finding in our southern ex-
changes, that we deem it worthy Of spe-
cial notice. 1t says the south has made
al least eight great blunders, and ennmer.
atts them as follows:
/. In firing upon Fort Sumter.
.. In believing that there would be a
divided north, and an apathetic Federal
Government.
8. In believing that they would have
the hearty sympathies of Europe.
4 In believing that the bonds of their
Confederacy would really be taken III
Europe.
B, In believing that the military power
Of the north would be directed in a cru
sadG against slavery, rather than employ.
ed for The overthrow Of treason and the
establishment of the Union and the Con.
slitution.
G. In believing that the northern cour-
age and physique wore no match for
southern, or that in battle one southor.
ner equaHed five Yankees.
Z. In believing thatthc flag of the Cot
ton Oligarchy would wave about the
Capitol at Washington, and the roll of
slaves be called on Bunker Hill.
8. In believing that the lancisd ON
impotence of cotton would dominate the
commerce Of the world.

the greatest wickedness, was the act of
secession itself, Lutheran Observer.
