PROSPE ECTUS

NASHVILLE UNION


The NASHVILLE UNION was commenced last spring,
for the purpose Of opposing the Rebel Southern Con
ederacy, ana Of advocating the restoration Of Federal
authority without any abatement all tho States
which have attempted TO secede. It's object Was to
proclaim the doctrines Of Liberty and Union. they
we're once expounded BY the fathers Of the Republic
but which for more than one year-tho long aud
dreary carnival Of treaaon--had been unspokeu aud
unwritten In the Capital Of tho State of ANDREW
JACKSON aud treasured up only in the hearts Of
the faithful. We believed that the right way TO con
duct loyal Journal IN city like Nashville, at such
time as this, was 10 raise the wayerng aud timid
up TO the true standard of patriotism, aud not 10
lower the standard Of patriotism after the manner Of
some other Journals suit the deprayed tastes Of the
semloyal aud sympathizers with the Richmond dy.
nasty.
The UsIos, therefore, has held as friends all who
support and as foes all who oppose the Union Of the
States It's watchword is FHrEDoM AND NAuoNALrY
With rebels and traitors II hNs no compromise to
make. Il contends for the Federal Constitution and
the Laws made in pursuance thereof as the sUPRENE
LAW oP TIE LAND, anything in the Constitution and
Laws OF any Of the States to the contrary notwith-
standing
It contends for the Union Of the States, because
without Il the preservation Of our liberties and insi.
tutions and the Organization Of society itself
wholly impossible. Therefore, whatever stands In
the way Of crushing out the rebellion and restoring
he Union must perish, no matter by what name IL
be called.
When thousands Of our citizen soldiers lay down
their lives upon the altar Of their country, sacr
fee above all earthly price, and precious in the sight
Of Heaven, God forbid that any ignoble motive Of
selfinterest should make any man waver in his 10y
atty. II there be any such, let them look at the
blood Of Shiloh, Fort Donelson, Murfreesboro and
Fredericksburg, and blush at their wickedness and
folly. Love for our country should now oyershadow
every other feeling and he Is patriot who loves
his houses, lands negroes with tthe Of the devo'
tion which he feels for his country. Even prudent
sehshness should compel men TO be patriots, for who
Jan hope his treasures from the wreck ei
ruined and dismembered Unioni
We want to see the land once more blessed with the
enduring sunshine Of honorable peace based upon
the complete and unconditional submission of the
rebels now in arms and not lit up with the deoeitul
glow Of peace based upon emasculate loyalty, and
concessions to traitors-the glow OF meteor which
would shine only To betray and going out would
leave us In darkness tenfold more gloomy than that
which prevailed before.
These are the sentiments aud views which the
UShoN will continue to advocate through wbateyeI
Of storm or sunshine may await It in the future aud
we ask the support Of all who believe It to be import
.ntthat thoroughly and vigorously loyal newspaper
should be published In Nashville.

very Loyal.

Many of the so-called Democracy,
affect TO be indignant at the accusation,
that many Of their political lights in the
North are deficient in loyalty Yet, At
large Convention of these good people
in Illinois, on the 18th ult., some strange
sights were witnessed. Dick Merrick,
who is recognized even in the South as
Thoroughbred traitor, was one ofthe
orators. Another was Ex-Governor
Reynolds AT the time Mr.. Lincoln was
elected, this hoary headed reprobate was
in reasonable correspondence with Extra
Billy Smith, of Virginia, devising the
best means of accomplishing secession.
In February, 1861, he wrote treason
able letter to l. II. Sturgeon, Assistant
Treasurer of the United States at st.
Louis, under the Administration Of
Buchanan, urging him to lend himself to
the rebels by turning over the. money in
his possession belonging to the United
States, to the bogus Southern Uonied q
eracy. About the same time he wrote a
letter to his brother-in-lsw, J. l.. Wilson,
of Alabama, endorsing the secession of
the Southern States, and cheering them
on in the work of treason. This letter
was published at the time in the Mobile
papers, as proof that a fire in the
rear" would be opened against the Gov
ernment should it dare to coerce the
seeded States
Pray how is it that such men are in
vited TO speak at democratic" meet
| ings?

A DILEMMA CoNcERNING REBEL NoTEs
Judge Wylie, sitting in the District
Court as a Court of Admiralty, is at q
loss what TO do with large amount Of
so called Confederate money, included in
property brought before him for condem-
nation. He says that to condemn il
would be to recognize it as property; to
sell il would be to give it circulation
and to destroy il would be TO give aid
and comfort TO the enemy by relieving
him of his liabilities.

We won't assert positively that the
rebels have great many negro soldiers,
butwe do assert that great many negro

hope that nobody will have the hardi-

NEGRO ELooUENcE. E.-There is in negro
oratory frequently a felicity Of express
sion which conveys a great deal Of meaL-
ing in few words. At 4 meeting Of coll
ored people in Sandusky recently, a sa-
BILE orator was holding forth on the duty
of the negro race TO take up arms in sup
port of the Government which had issued
the Proclamation of Emancipation.
Said he: "Those who can't 6ght-the
old men, the women, and the children
must stay down in de valley dey are
safe. But we will 60 up into dc noun
tain TO sacrifice" Another dark-skinned
orator, whilst speaking at Clyde al a
similar meeting, said: "We know what
the price Of liberty is---it is blood.
Blood is the price of liberty. A black
man has got as much blood as a white
man, and we must pay the price. -

One of our Vermont friends, in writing
to the Drawer, relates an incident of a
serio-comico character that must have
place in our pages:
In -, Vermont, there lives an old
lady of great religious excitability, and it
NAV be that her intellex" are little
sprung. She had listened to sermon on
the service of God and Mammon, and got
the thing a good deal mixed up but
with very strong impression that NAM
mon was the god of this world, and there
fore to be served while she was here. AS
soon as the sermon was ended she rose
from her seat, and in clear shrill voice,
that rang through the house, she said:
brethren and sisters, l have often fol-
lowed after the Evil One, but from this
time onward 1 mean to serve that good
old Mammon as long as live ?'-Har-
per's Drdacer.

TNHIS COMPOUND has undergone the
Il examination Of the most competent
Chemists in France and England, and has
bean pronounced all over Europe the BEST
ARTICLE ever found for removing Scales in
Steam Boilers, this great evil for industry.
The main qualities of this Compound are:
that it remoUes the scales Of any boiler tn
fsu days, no matter ho,0 old, and it does not
Iinjwe the metal in the least. The raising Of
steam is made easier. 1t sares fuel and ,cork,
and PREVENTS all danger of explosion.
The Compound has now been in use for
three years, and the great success obtained
in the Old World induced the undersigned to
introduce it on this Coast, being confident
of the patronage Of this enlightened and in
dustrious country. u. VENARD,
