Palmyra. Burnside's hanging of two
Confederate officers in Kentucky. Re
member the whole black catalogue of
diabolisms which this fiondish race has
committed against our homes, our
rights and r families, and then say
has that man got Southern heart in
his breast who can feel one throb of
Scnsibjlity for tho Williams who have
committed these enormous INJURIES !?
1T IS base, unteeIing and unmanly. The
North does not wage civilized war
upon us. If it did, we should sickle
for the incest obsoryanccs Of the laws
Of chivalry in the treatment of fallen
foes.
But they fight us with tho forocity
OF wild beasts, and the indscriminatc
blood thirStlness of savagcs. They
war upon women and children, old
men, property and goods. They burn,
pIundcr and slay And yet there are
white livcrcd people among us who
forget all this in mawkish sensibility.
and who can chat and argue with the
assassins who have made every third
house in the land house of mourninr,
and who would butcher us all and oc,
cuPy our homes and land and goods, if
they but had the power. Tho military
authorities owe it to US to save US from
such painful scenes. They owe it to
the mothers and the widows whose
sons and husbands lio in bloody graves,
dug by these ruthless enemies. We
counsel no cruelty to prisoners. But
we do hold that not one privilege should
be accorded to them, not demanded by
the most rigid of tho rules and usages

MAIL Contractors Tile recently
enacted law which cxempts mail con
tractors from military service has had
the effect Of accumulating numerous
applications for routes in the States of
Florida, Georgia. South Carolina and
Virginia, for the four years term,
which commences on the lst Jnlv
proXimO In order to secure the post
of contractor, and, along with it, cx-
emption from enrolment in the army,
tho rates Of the bids, as | learn, have,
on tho short routes, sank to an unpre.
cedentedIy low point; some engaging
to convey the mails faithful, for the
term of four years, for nothing, others
for the fraction of cent, others for
five dollars less that Of the lowest
bidder, reducing very materially the
annual expenditure Of tho Post office
Department in those States.
Some bidders, however, uninhuenccd,
it seems, by the facilities Of the EX-
empcion law, graduate their offers on
tho increased cost of forage and living
in these days of deprecated currency,
and, wishing not only to meet cXpon-
ses, but to make handsome profits gut
of the Department, have sent in Eek
travagantly high bids, which, | under,
stand, have been rejected by the Post
master General, who has ordered the
routes to be re adyertised, and, in the
meantime, the Postmasters attho heads
of the Routes have been instructed to
stipulato with their present hoIdcrs tol
continue the service ut the old rate of
compensation, until less objectionable
offers are received and accepted
Whether the former contractors, thus
appealed to will consent to the PROPOSE
tion made them, remains to be seen.
My impression is, that in tho majority
of cases, they will do SO, and that the
Postmaster General will thus have
availed himself Of an opportunity to
checkmate that spirit Of extortion and
extravaganza which ia 80 characteristic

We tell these men, that they, as we'll as jeff
Davis q Co., haviug.appeacd from the Constitu-
tion to the sword, must abide the consequences
of their tcmcrity. When they offer us only a
fight for life or death they have no right to die
tate to us such terms Of life as are to them most
agreeable, but they must accept just such as the
victors deem it eXpedcut to offer them, We're
we in their power, as they are in ours they
would drive us to a much harder extremity than
an oath Of loyalty. We should swing upon the
gibbet or seek refuge from their malice, like the
poor Texans und East Tennessceaus. amid the
forests and caves Of the mountains, glad il blood
hounds and guerrilas did not hunt us out of our
retreats. How many Union men have been al
lowed any lawful aud constitutional rights in the
South Alas not one. Look at the case Of
John Minor Bolts, Of Parson Brownow, Of Eth
eredge aud Of the Union men in northern Texas,
And who ever heard II single complaint from any
OF the secession papers in this State, against the
damnable outrages practiced against those noble
SouthGrners by traitors. Not Il word have they
said in their favor. Not word in defense Of
violated constitutions aud laws. On the con.
trary they have heaped Goals Of fire upon the
heads OF the prosecuted, injured Union refugees
They denounced Brownow as II fanatic, Gov
Johnson as brute, and E;heredge as Il renegade
from principle. What further proofs could they
furnish us that they are themselves iusiduous
traitors, as well as spies behind the line Of our
armies Yet they have the impudence to claim
the benefit Of laws aud Constitutions, which they
habitually repudiate. We tell them that there is
point beyond which fOrbearance ceases to be Il
virtue, and that they are driving toward that
point with race horse speed.
