No changes have taken place in the army of

Shocking Results Of War.

The New York Christian Inquirer makes,
on good authority, these statements, but
they do not tell the half Of the whole sad
truth
In several libraries of New England clergy
men we have seen choice volumes Of great
cost bearing the names of Southern ministers,
to whom they still belong, although they had
been sent North as gif,s from Yankee soldiers
who had appropriated them. Some Massa-
ehusetts parlors are said 10 be carpe ted with
spoils of another kind. Now. if any one asks
what has become of the Union party once. so
strong at the South, we answer hat IN part,
they have been aienated from the Govern
ment by the unjustiiable outrages committed
by wicked or thoughtless Federal soldiers.
At Beaufort, South Carolina, tombs were rio-
lated At Holly springs, Mississippi, com

and " old slcdgen Such tales of wrong have
infuriated many who were disposed to be
friends of the Union, and their righteous IN
| dlgnation has bad something to do with re-
verses that have oVertaken our arms.
In this connection, read the following reve-
lations published in the Tribune, soon after
| the Fredericksburg fight:
"After the severe cannonading of yester-
day, it seems to have been understood that

Pensacola Destroyed by Fire, by the Sol
diers.

New YoRK, April 3.-A letter from New
Orleans saps that St. Mary's Hall, ihe fine
hotel and all the dwellings in Pensacola, ex-
cept Mallery and chases, were burned down
by the U. S troops. The Fifteenth Maine
and Twenty-eight~ Connecticut regiment
were left there, on the departure of the Twen-
ty-elghth regiment; the soldiers seemed to
think that the evacuation Of the place to the
enemy was intended, and many swore they
would burn the place.
On Thursday at noon the fire commenced,
and for three days and nights the town was
filed with smoke and fame. The officers
tried to stop the work of destruction, but
seemed to have no influence over the men.
Even the troops placed to guard the property
set it on fire.
Colonel Dyer, the commander of the post,
was almost distracted, and gave orders to
shoot down all persons caught in the act of
incendiarism, but there was no one to execute
them. Finally the long roll was beaten, and
the men got into the Navy Yard and confin-

s. Efidas, the King has ASS Ears 20

When Lincoln dared to thrust forth his
hand of tyranny and place shackles upon the
Democratic press of the north, the Abolition
lists responded with a loud amen, declaring
that he had a constitutional right to do So
If, in doing this, he but exercised constHu-
tioadt power, what need had the Abolition
Congress to make the order valid by enact
ment! Surely his constitutional right'
ought to have been sufficient protection
When he sent forth his proclamation sus.
pending the writ of habeas corpus, it too was
pronounced a " constitutional measure" by
them, yet their own Congress considered it
necessary to give the instrument valuation
by special enactment. When he gave his
mercenaries the command to arrest and in
carcerate innocent men because they were
disciples OF the good old Democratic faith.
it was also pronounced constitutional
measure" by the Abolitionists, yet their rep
resentatives in Congress were compelled to
give him protection and place him beyond
the reach Of shat Constitution which he pro-
tesses to be carrying out, by an Infamous 'Tn-
demnlty Bill" What was the use of all this
remarkable legislation, elf Lincolns course
has been constitutional! Certainly, if the
Constitution gave him all this power, these
acts of Congress are absurd and superfuous.
Ah, reader, there's foul stencil surging up
from that pool of deception They cannot
hide their guilt and stigma by the glttering
diadem of false patriotism which they wear.
The actions which they have been compelled
to take for their own safety, like the tale.

PoLITIcAL MINIsTERs.-The political alb
clifton ministers, who have for long time
been serving the devil by making dissensions
and disturbing the christian harmony of the
church, are many of them now taking an o.
pen position in the abolition, free negro, rob-
bers league. This is exactly where they be.
long, and the people should rejoice that they
have thus put themselves in the POSITION
They will have a nice time in defending rob-
berry, bribery. negro equality, and drawing
pay from the people whose liberty they are
conspiring against. Let the true christian
mInlster be sustained, but let no man support

e By the late news from Europe, We
learn that 5000 loaves of bread, donated
by the philanthrOpists (?) of America, to the
suffering poor" of England, were used by
the Englishmen at first, as missiles to pelt
each other with, and finally were stamped in
the mud. While we cannot but regret the
destruction of property, and at this time par.
ticularly Of bread, we do not regret that these
sentimental, far seeing philanthropists have
been most emphatically rebuked. When we
consider all the circumstances, we can hard
lY put down, this matter of sending bread to
the English, as prompted by purely charita-
ole motives. There has been no failure in
the crops in Europe. England is as proud,
prosperous and happy to-day, as ever. Her
manufacturers are reaping rich harvests of
American gold. We have, probably, ten
suffering families ten helpless widows, and
freezing, starving orphans to England's one.
The English people have hundred, and prob
ably thousand dollars of hard money in gen.
eral circulation, where we have one. Hun.
dreds of thousands of gold and silver are be-
ing sentby us to England almos. every week :;
ana we have in its stead a deprecated, worth
loss paper currency. Almost everything
necessary to the wants of the poor, costs fif.
ty per cent. more in New York, than in Lon
on. In view of these considerations, and ma
ny others, which Eight be suggested, can it,
be said to be genuine charity, that prompted
the donation of ship loads of bread, pork &c.
to what we call the suffering operatives of
England 2" Is not England better able to
take care of her poor, to-day, than we are to
take care of ours Does not charity begin
at honle2
Were not these donations rather a peace
offering, aboat thrown to the whale, few
straws sent to tickle Johnny Bull, who show
ed his horns so threateninely in the Trent
affair We have indulged in the most un
measured abuse OF England and her people,
and yet we have money to buy bread from
the starving mouths of our own poor, to send
to them, to be used in a carnival and stamp
ed in the mud
!. :, We imagine our people who feel so deeply
for the sufferings of the poor, would, upon
looking about them, find objects upon which
to exercise their charity, in the thousands of
poverty -pinched, starving, freezing, helpless
widows and orphans, in every city, town and
a village in the land. They might not find
quite so many laudations in the newspapers.
The vanity that prompted these acts of DIS
s1ferested generosity might not be SO much
gratifed, but an approving conscience and
the grateful prayers of the suffering would
be q far greater reward to the true philan-
thropist, than all the plaudits the newspapers
could bestow.
