TO WHOM TT MAY CONCERN.

The plain language which we are in the
habit Of using against the bogus Democracy
and its most prominent leaders, we do not
apply to, or design to include, any of those
who arc in favor of tho Union above every
thing else, and who earnestly desire speedy
and vigorous prosecution of the war. Dil-
ference of opinion in mere matters of pol
icy, always have existed and always will
exist, Such differences of course must be
expected. But we wish il distinctly under
stood that when we use the words "traitor, "
tory" ,""butternut," &c, we mean those who
embrace such sentiments AZ the following,
or sustain the mon who utter them, and that
we feel greater indignation toward them
than we can find language to express;
Iassure you that every Democrat IN Greenfield is

Erom the Sen Coast.

On the oath the iron-clad Montaul went
from Hilton Head into the Ogeechee Sound,
a few miles beyond the Georgian line, for
the purpose Of driving the rebels from their
batteries there. She was accompanied by
some wooden batteries, which were to AT
tempt to capture OF destroy the blockade
running steamer Nashville, which, it will he
recolleCtcd, has, for some time past, been
shut in the Sound by our cruisers, The
rebel ram Atlanta Mas also known TO be in
the same neghborhood, and collision with
her was anticipated, Beyond the arrival OF
the Montauk at the mouth Of The Ogeechee
nothing at last aivices was known at Hilton
Head, and the heavy fog which prevailed
on the coast prevented observation. Heavy
firing, however, was heard from the direc,
ton of the expected battle. 1t is probable
that the expedition was successful. a dis
patch from Gen. Dix at Fortress Monroe, is
said TO have been received at Washington
which statos that General Peck, in command
near Suffolk, had Just held an interview
with the rebel Gen. Pryor, who mentioned
that there had been fight on the coast
Of Georgia, in which the rebels had been
beaten,

NEW JERSEY RUTTERNUrs.

At n gathering of some of the New Jcr
scy bogus Democracy, held at Fort Lee, in
Bergen county. on the sth inst, apparently
10 confer AZ to the policy of the party,
the most atrocious sentiments were eX-
pressed by prominent gentlemen present.
Ex-Governor Price i'll the course of most
inhammatory speech, argued that tho Union
is broken and that the States fall back in-
to the original elements the same AS before
the Constitution was adopted. Whcrefrom
he concluded thst il is only in tho exercise
OF State rights the Union can he restored
and added that the people of New Jersey
were willing TO say to tho Southern States
TO whom they were bound in heart and
feeling --thcy were willing to say to them:
"Come back; YOU shall have all the guarantees
you had before, and it you want more for the in
sttutions in your respective States, you shall have
them"
Thomas Dunn English, a member elect of
the State Legislature, went even further
than Gov Price, concluding n speech of
great violence by savage appeal for blood,
and threat of civil war at the North.
We quote
From the egg Of ursurpaton sprang the eaglct
OF tyranny; the egg must be crushed, the eaglet
must be strangled. In the wine glass before him
he saw nothing but blood. Ii this war on the
South continued much longer, he did not hesitate to
say we would have war at the Norh-at our own
hearth stones. II the Administration would not
heed the late elections If they would persist in
the violation of State and popular rights-thp
people would seek remedy in the Constitution; hui
II that should fail they would turn upon them the
mouths Of their cannon and the points Of their
Sabers."
There's Secesh Democracy for you! The
hiss of the regular copperhead," who
would fight their neighbors at the North
but would not lift finger against the reb,
els in the South
And yet these internal vipors, calling
themselves Democrats, had the temcrity
10 utter such sentiments at celebration of
the Anniversary of Jacksons victory at the
battle at New Orleans! Why, Old Hickory
would have hung such men us high as la
man Such is the spirit of the Northern
traitors Of 1863. Verify il is reserved for
this generation to witness the depths OF
human depravity and intamy to which the
heart of man is accessible.
We have not learned that these sacri.
legious wretches included, as part OF their
exercises, the following tenet laid down by
General Andrew jackson in his annual mes
sage, before Congress, January :, 1888:
I" The right Of the people Of single State to ali
solve themselves at will, and without the conSeu
Of the other States, from their most solemn oblga
tons and hazard the liberties and happiness of tn
millions composing this Union, caR not be ackRo,ol
edged Such authority is believed utterly repug
nant both to the principles upon which the Genera
Government is constituted, and to the objects whicl
il was expressly formed to attan."

SATURDAY January 10, 1963.-We e arrived
of Galveston about noon to-day, and as

and towards them our fire was directed
The ball was opened by the Brooklyn, and
the Scioto followed with her eleven.incll
Parrot at one extremity of the town, while
we were along the front at the other cx-

GOVERNOR STANLEY.

We have the good news that Governor
Stanley of North Carolina has resigned. II
will be remembered that he was anative oi
the State, and formerly represented it in
Congress. He afterward removed to Cal.
ifornia, whence he was called by the Pres
ident TO assume the Office he recently held,
If not Secessionist at heart, his pro.
slavery proclivities rendered him utterly
unfit for the Office. General Fosters enlist
