British Cruelties.

Palmerston and Russell are shocked at
Gen. Buffers late order in relation to Sc
cession women. The language of that or
der might have been improved, but no
British statesman has a right to arraign it.,
as we can show by quoting from Buckle,
the most brilliant of Great Britain's histo-
rians, few passages descriptive of Eng
hsh behavior in the civil wars between
England and Scotland. We make no ref
erence now to the horrible outrages perpe-
trated by British officers and soldiers in
India: Sac. Union
" Lauderdale, who for many wears was
at the head of affairs, was greatly infu-
enced by the new prelates and aided them
with the authority of the Executive. I'm
der their united auspices new contrivance
was hit upon and a body of soldiers, com
manded by Turner, a drunken and fero-
cious soldier, was let loose upon the peo-
pie. The sufferers, CALLED to madness,
rose in arms. This was made the pretense,
in 1867, for fresh military executions, by
which some of the fairest parts of Western
Scotland were devastated, houses burned,
men tortured, women ravished
One woman is brought prisoner to Kilmar-
mock, where she was first sentenced to be
let down into deep pit, full of toads and
other vile creatures. Her shrieks thence
were heard to a great distance. : = Sir
William Bannatyne's soldiers seized a wo-
man and bound her, and put lighted match
es between her fingers FOR several hours
the torture and pain made her almost dis
tracted; she lost one of her hands, and in
few days, she died. There were murders,
robberies, rapes Bannatyne made great
fires, and laid men down to roast before
them, and when they would not, or could
not, give him the money he required, or
the information he was seeking. For CEN
turies the bitterest animosity had existed
between the Highlanders and Lowlanders
and now the savage mountaineers were
called from their homes that they might
take full revenge. And well they glutled
their ire. During three months they en-
joyed every license. Eight thousand armed
Highlanders, invited by the English Gov
ernment, and receiving beforehand an in
demnlty for every excess, were left to work
their will upon the towns and villages of
Western Scotland. They spared neither
age nor sex. They deprived the people of
their property; they even stripped them
of their clothes and sent them out naked
to die in the fields. Upon many they in
ficted the most horrible tortures. Chill
dren torn from their mothers were foully
abused; while both mothers and daugh-
ters were subjected to fate compared to
which death would have been a Joyful al
tentative. In l745 they (the rebel High
landers) during their stay in Carlisle, com
mitted the most shocking detestable vii
lainies for, not content with robbing fam
lilies of their most valuable effects, they
scrupled not to act their brutal insolence
on the persons of some young ladies, even
in the presence of their parents. A gen.
tleman in letter to his friend in London,
writes thus: that, after being in man
ner stripped of everything, he had the mis-
cry to see three of his daughters treated
in such manner that he could not relate
it."

Smile and be contented.

The world grows old and men grow cold
To each whilst seeking treasure;
And what with want, and care, and toll,
We scarce have time for pleasure.
But never mind, that is a loss
Not much to be lalnented-
Life rolls on gaily if you will
But smile and be contented.
If we are poor and would be rich,
1t will not be by pining;
No steady hearts and hoping minds
Are lifo's bright silver lining.
There's ne'l man that dared to hope,
Hath of his choice repented-
The happlest souls on earth are those
Who smile and are contented.
When grief doth come to rack the heart,
And fortune bids us sorrow,
From hope we may a blessing reap,
And consolation borrow,
If thorns will rise where roses bloom,
1t cannot be prevented
So make the best of life you can,
And smile and be conteGted.

Why the Seven Days Contest Were Vic
tories.

tories.
Newspapers having mentioned already
that General Andrew Porter, Provost Mar
shall General of the Army of the Potomac,
and also General Marcy, Chief of Gen.
McClellan's staff, have recently been here,
and we may no longer refrain from MOTTO
ing the fact, more especially as it enables
us to state that they concur in the belief
that the seven days battles were success
sion of substantial Union victories, mas
much as they resulted:
l. In the successful achievement of the
purpose of Mcclellan, viz: so to change
his base as to secure the cooperation of
the gunboats.
2. In the defeat of the two ends aimed
to be accomplished by the enemy, viz the
prevention of McClellan's move from the
James river bank, and securing our i'm
mense supply at the White House.
g. In the fact that the rebel loss in
killed, wounded, prisoners, and otherwise
put horS de combat, was at the lowest cal
culation, two for one on our side.
f. In the fact that the rebels loss of
arms and expenditure of munitions cannot
be replaced; while ours can, instantly al
most
s. In the relative condition in which the
battles left the sick and wounded of the
two contending forces. Our wounded and
sick all being admirably provided for, while
theirs are dying like rotten sheep, through
their entire lack of any and every descrip-
ton of hospital stores and supplies, and
thus creating a state of things in and
around Richmond, appalling to the whole
South.
We may add that the general officers
named above unite in declaring that it is
not true that the enemy captured single
one of McClellan's siege guns, or any mu-
nitions or stores to speak of. On the con-
trary, while they lost more field artillery
than they took from us, they got nothing
worth notice in the way of supplies of any
description as an equivalent.
Rejecting men will see in these facts
proof that our army has indeed substantial
reasons for regarding, as they certainly do
the seven days battles as a series of Unior
Victories Washington Star.
