the war, to complete success, ought not to
hinder us, from putting the doctrine and
practice of secession forever at rest"
The following is the fit conclusion ofthis
remarkable article:
"What we are called to do-first of all
is to break the military power of our
rebellious countrymen. In doing this, in
stead of being phrenzied by the stubborn
opposition, let us frankly honor the hero
ism of our race displayed by them. The
brave love the brave; and these men are
worthy to die at our side, rather than by
our hands. Of all wars, those like this
tend to the greatest ferocity; yet Of all
wars, the grand objects we propose in this,
ought to be effective in keeping us the
most carefully from all injustice and bar
barity. 1t is not to exterminate-but it is
to restore, that we have put forth such
amazing force. 1t is impossible to withhold
our hand-or turn aside from the battle,
till the work of war and death has achieved
its indispensable object; but after that,
comes work of life and peace, which we
must perform as thoroughly as the
work of war and death And-with
Gods blessing-that work of life and
peace can be achieved as perfectly, if we
keep ourselves in a temper fit for it's per-
Torrance, as we are sure the preliminary
work of war and death can be, if we quit
ourselves like men. Great as is our conf
dence that this rebellion can be conquered,
it does not exceed the strength of our
conviction that failure, afterward to re-
store the Union as it was would be attrib-
utable at least as much to our own folly,
as to the phrensy of the Southern people
What SHOULD be the fate Of men and par
ties who seek to bring out of the most
costly triumph, only ignominy and ruin !?
We should not omit to observe that the
number of the Danvlle Recie,c from
which we have quoted, is that of Decem-
Der, and that the article of DR.. BRECKIy-
RIDGE was prepared some weeks before
the Presidents Proclamation of the list
Of January was issued.

General Mcclellan Shakes Hands
witt. a Niger,

Our friends of the Abolition persuasion
will be shocked at the following, which we
take from the Boston Comier:
Among tie incidents Of the great recep-
ton yesterday, was the conversation be-
tween General Mcclellan and our colored
friend, Erred Fatal, as related to us by the
latter himself. Fred. went into the Ire
mont House with the crowd, and the Gen
eral accepted his proffered hand as he
passed by. General" said Fred, Il
want to tell you that there's one colored
man here who's Il good Union Democrat.
g / amglad to hear it," said the General,
"and | hope you will continue So Now,
we can bear testimony to the fidelity Of
Fred to his principles, having known him
well, and being entirely conversant with
his political action for several years past
He has maintained his principles under cir
cumstances in the highest degree credit
able to his honesty, good sense and firm
ness, in conflicts, as Milton would say,
mot without dust and heat" and we'll de-
served to be taken by the hand by hero.

"A few days since, Mr.. Edward S.
Terry was found dead at low drinking
house of New York city, his death result
ing from the inordinate use of ardent
spirits. A few years ago, he was lawyer
Of eminence and ability, moving in good
society, and at one time he was a law
partner of Charles OConnor, a leading
lawyer of the New York bar.

The Richmond Wing, in speaking of
the changes in the Army of the Potomac,
says: Franklin, very probably, is friend
to Mcclellan, and owes his dismissal to
that fact. We believe he has more repu-
tation among our officers than any other
general officer of the Yankees-McC lellan
not excepted. His loss will be our gain. ~

SECRETS OF FREE MAsoNEY.-Free Ma
sonry, said Benjamin Franklin, / admit,
has its secrets. 1t has secrets peculiar to
itself, but of what do these principally con-
sist? They consist of signs and tokens,
which serve as testimonials of character
and qualifications, which are conferred
after due course of instruction and exami-
nation; they are Of no small value they
speak a universal language, and are pass
port to the support of the whole world.
They cannot be lost so long as memory re-
tains its power. Let the possessor of them
be expatriated, shipwrecked, or imprisoned
let him be stripped of everything be has
in the world-still these credentials re-
main, and are available for him as circum-
stances may require. The good effects
which they produce are established by the
incontestable facts of history. They have
stayed the uplifted hand of the destroyer;
they have softened the aspirations of the
tyrant; they have subdued the rancor of
malevolence, and broken down the barriers
of political animosty and sectional aliena-
ton. On the field of battle, in the soil
tudes of the uncultivated forest, or in the
busy haunts of the crowded city, they have
made men of most hostile feelings, and the
most diversified conditions, rush to the aid
of each other with special joy and satisfac-
ton that they have been able to afford re-
lief to brother Mason.

"a Marriage Spoiled.

From tie Ncwburyport Mass Herald.
4 volunteer OF one of our Massachusetts,
regiments from this section, had the peril
Gus duty Of bearing the standard in one
Of the late battles, and fell upon the field.
He was seen to fail, and soon after the
regiment retreated, and nothing more was
heard OF his fate. The young wife he had
left at home bitterly lamented, and would
not be comtorted To those urging that
he might only be wounded and in the
hands OF the enemy she would hear moth
ing; she knew he was dead In a few
days she left papers in the hands OF an at
torney to obtain what might be due her
from the Government as the widow Of q
deceased soldier She ut on mourning,
too-back, heavy, and awtully long
sweeping the ground behind her. Every
body felt for the widow, and one person
Il returned soldier who had been wounded
in battle, who had known her when she
was a light-hearted miss-shared largely
in her grief. Only & few days passed,
however, before he became more intimate
with the widow, and in three weeks was
deeply interested.
On the fourth week an intended mar
iluoS cSLhSSSh lLS pa tlillOQliNCN,
and the miliner was called upon for assist
ance in changing the deep mourning ha-
bilaments of the widow to what would be
more fitting bridal party. Time runs
fast with wedding in prospect, and the
neighborhoood was alive with gossip, when
last Fridays mail-Friday is sort of
hangman's day, after all-brought shock
ing bad news to the party-the soldier
husband was not dead. He had been
taken from the battle, field, carried to
Richmond, exchanged, and was on his way
home. Awful, The mourning and the
application for dead mans bounty, all
had gone wrong; and, alas for her .-re-
joiced as she was, Of course, to hear
that her dear husband was aliye-she
was in sad quandary what to do with
the lover and other fixings. But probably
it would all be right next week, when the
dead will be alive and the lost found, and
great rejoicing prevail.

was heroic; no troops could be more deter.
