In pursuance to notice, for Union meeting
TO be held at the Batesole School House Friday
evening, March 9th, 1863 Citizens met and or
ganized by calling Anson Eldridgc to the chair
On motion, Isaac Mowcry was made Secreta-
ry OF the meeting. Whereupon, d. s. Canfeld
opened the meeting, with few eloquent re-
marks, giving short sketch ofthe causes ofthe
rebellion, commenced thirty years ago; showing
the necessity Of a United Sentiment in quench-
ing the fires of discord that created the greatest
civil war that ever existed on the earth. John
F. Caples Esq. followed in a mastery manner,
showing conclusively, that as an American peo-
pie we had been imposed upon in the halls Of
legislation by the slave power of the South, and
when we could no longer grant their impositions
and behests, they revolted to destroy the tenn
pie of Liberty that had so long protected them
and us But five were true to our flag and the
Union, success would be ours and we could
transmit to posterity our birthright untarnshed
and unbroken. He closed, offering three cheers
for the success Of the Federal army, which was
responded with a will. Hereupon, Capt. NJ E.
Tyler was called out, he gave a vivid account
of occurrences in the field and assured us the
soldiers were for the Union and no compromise.
And as for himself, he would rather have his
bones bleaching in the valley ofthe Mississippi,
than submit toa dishonorablc peace, and en-
treated the citizens to encourage and synpathize
with the soldiers in the field, ifthey wanted this
war brought to a close. Three good hearty
cheers were then given for Capt. Tyler.
On notion Rcsotpci That we deeply sym
pathize with the Federal army, and viii give
them our cordial support, and will use all hon
erable means to uphold and sustain our governs
nent in putting down this gigantic rebellion.

Cromwell on Destructive Conservatism.
In a speech to Parliament in 1856, the Great
Protector, defending his administration, touched
upon doctrine which is popular just now with
the friends of secession and the enemies of the
national life, and exposed its fallacy, almost as
if by anticipation
aIf nothing should ever be done" said he 'but
what is 'eccordi,.g 20 ia,c' the throat of the ma
tion may be cut while we send for some to make
Law Therefore certainly it isa pitiful beastly
notion to think though it be for ordinary gov
ernment to live by law and rule, yet If gov
ernnent in extraordinary circumstances go be-
yond the law even for self preservation, it is TO
be clamored at and battered at. When matters
Of necessity come then, without guilt, extraordi-
nary remedies may be applied.
"And l must say do not know one action of
this government, no, not one, but it hath been
in order to the peace and safety of this Nation.
