InSurreclion as Weapon of
N8r.

The London Army and Nary Gazette,
edited by William Il. Russell, thus eff.
fectually disposes of the outcry of rebel
ympathizors abroad in reference to the
"inhumanity'' of employing negroes in
the service of the nation:
"There is journal in this metropolis
which is the reputed organ Of the Confed-
crate States. At all events, the paper
has decided southern procIlvities. In the
last number it Is asserted that civilized
nations will think death by powder and
ball lis too respectable for men guilty of
an attempt to incite an inferior race to in
surrection' The alIusion arises from a
report that federal officers of certain
negro regiment, which is said to have
been taken in Florida, had been sentenced
to be shot. This passage is one Of many
proofs that the Americans cannot com-
.prehend the feelings of this country-it
may be of any Understanding the war.
The uprising OF portion Of an enemy's
subjects, inferior or superior in race, is "a
desirable object to effect-it is quite a
Legitimate operation OF war. If Great
Britain were engaged in war with
France nothing would be more natural
than for our enemy to excite Hindoo,
Mussu man or Arab to revolt. No rule
of warfare would permit US to treat Off
GERS engaged in that service otherwise
than as men conducting legitimate oper-
alton. 1t is necessary evil of war, in
which servile insurrection may be invoked
by an invader, to increase the ordinary
horrors and calanities of hostile occupa-
ton. When some years ago southern
statesmen, insolent and aggressive, threat
eDed this country with war, it was re-
marked over and over again, in British
journals, that the despatch of some of
our West Indian regiments to Louisiana
or the Carolinas might be one of the most
formidable agencies to which even our
vast beligerent power could resort Our
southern friends must carry the whole
weight of slavery on their shoulders, IN
peace or in war. 1t would be repetition
of the Indian revolt of 1857. An infe-
rior race would rise against their masters.
But it is an accident and contingent Of
any war In which state of shareholders
engages. The officers who develop it are
as free from any act of vengeance or re-
taliation as those who fight on the decks
of their ships or in the lines of their reg
iments." s.t

A HEROIC KENTUCKY MATRON.-A
letter from Stanford kentuoky,te the Gin
clnnati Commercial, narrates the follow
incident:
"When Pegram's men were in Lancas-
ters, Garrard county, one of his officers
and a squad of men rode up to the house
of Colonel Lendrum, then absent in the
Union army, and ordered his wife to get
them meal She told them fatty that
she would not do it They then threat
ened to burn her house if she persisted !;
to which she heroically replied, Then
apply the torch and I'll take my children
ana leave, for will not prepare you food
adding that she thought they would find
a brigade of mep to apply the torch also.
Stunned py this unlocked for courage
and defiance of an unprotected woman,
they deemed it better not to carry their
threat into execution The allusion to
brigade of men was understood by them
when it became known that her husband
was then in command of brigade in the
federal army"

THE RETURN.

July-what is the news they tell?
A battle won: our eyes are dim,
A sad forebodings press the heart
Anxious awaiting news from him.
Hour drags on hour: fond heart, keep still
Shall evil ti6ings break the spell =?
A word at last they found him dead
He fought in the advance, and fell
Oh aloes of affection poured
Into the wine-cup eff the soul
Oh bitterness of anguish stored
To fill our grief beyond controll
AT last he comes, awaited long,
Not to home welcomes warm and loud,
Not to the voice of mirth and song,
Pale featured, cold, beneath a shroud.
Oh from the morrow of our lives
A glowing hope has stolen away,
A something from the sun has fed,
That dims the glory of the day.
More earnestly we look beyond
The present life to that to be;
Another influence draws the soul
To long for that futurity.
Pardon if anguished souls refrain
Too little, grieving Tor the lost,
From thinking dearly bought the gain
Of Victory at such fearful cost
Teach US as dearest gain to prize
The glory crown he early won
Forever shall his requiem rise;
Rest thee in peace, thy duty done.

it cannot be tolerated that these men, who

committed against their own State or of the

among our peaceful people all the horrors they
have brought upon the State from which they
fed. We owe it not only to ourselves and
families, but much more to the families of
those who have left us to defend, on the bat
tle-feld, the life Of our country, that we pre-
serve peace and good order at home. II must
be bitter reflection to our gallant soldiers
that while they are enduring the hardships
and dangers of soldiers life in defense of
their country, bad men at home are plotting
to bring upon their unprotected families the
dangers of civil war.

Signs of the Times
he Ladies Repository says


If we read Alright the signs of the times
the crisis has passed in this great rebellion.
What has been wanting from the beginning
is an earnest and sound sentiment of nation.
atty in the North. In this respect, what the
treachery and the barbarities of the rebels
failed to accomplish, the development of trea.
son at home is likely to work out. A reac
ton IN the public mind is evidently taking
place. The doctrine we have preached from
the beginning that we must fight this war
through is taking hold Of the hearts of all
loyal citizens, whether Democrat or Repubi,
can. Henceforth the My lines of denmark.
alton will be those which separate between
the peace and the war party. The for
mer would surrender all that is glorious in
our nations hope, would compromise with the
blacklist traitors on Gods earth, in order to
patch up short-lived and treacherous peace.
Su,h peace would soon again drench the
land in blood, and in all probability destroy
forever the hope of freedom. But the plot
cannot succeed. The sentiment of nationality
is reviving In that is our hope. 1t is worth
more than armies and navies. Without it
there is no true national life. There is not
one of our readers who may not contribute
something to its development.
