W- As the Courier is fond of quoting
from the Newburyport Herald, when it suits
its purposes, we commend to it the following:
1.-THE Newburyport Herald. talking about
the plan Of reconstructing the Union with
New England left out, says it would be like
mans knocking off the top of his head to
improve his intellect"
By-the-way, didn't the Judge come from
the down-east corner of New England !?
Don't wonder he wants the Northwest to
secede and leave his native State out in the
cold. Very natural that the monuments over
the remains of his ancestors should call up
unpleasant recollections. Yes, Judge, turn
those graves out in the cold; secede from the
brown school-house where you learned your
ABC; villify the church where your parents
partook of the sacrament burn the house in
which you were reared, as did Arnold; desc
crate your dead; fellowship with thieves,
villains and pirates; curse all that is pure

turn traitor to your country! Judas

propose to do - but with more courage.

MBER ELEV EN-.


La GRANGE, TENN, Jan. II. 1863.
Since the capture Of Holly Springs and the
destruction of government stores at that
place on the Goth of last month, army move
ments in this department have had a retro.
grade appearance TO the eye, at least, of the
un,nitatetl. The advance guard-now sp'
parent;y the rear guard is but little, if any,
south OF Holly Springs, and every movement
seems to indicate an advance in this dircc.
ton. Various reasons are assigned for the
change in operations, amongst which the
most plausible one have heard is, that the
object in pushing this army so far south as
Water Valley, threatening Jackson in one d.
rection and Grenada in the other, was to
draw tho rebel strength as much as possible
from Vicksburg, thereby rendering it COM
paratively easy prey to our forces from be
low.
However that may be, it is certain that
Oxford, Abbeyvillc, Water Valley and the
points below Holly Springs, have been en-
tirely abandoned, and from appearances yes
terday morning, when we left the latter place,
no attempt will.be made to hold it for more
than few days; indeed, it did not sp. ear
that it would long be worth holding, for there
were more than dozen houses destroyed by
fire ON Thursday night, and the flames were
still raging when the train on which we left
the place passed out of sight. For several
nights previous, from threeto four houses had
been burned, and the disposition seemed to
prevail amongst the soldiers to render the
destruction of the town complete.
'War, pesti.ence and famine" is the Or
der in which three of tho greatest calamities
that can befall people are catalogued, and
though entirely unacquainted with the last
two mentioned, several months experience
and observation of the workings of the for
mer, are sufficient to convince me that it is

flying of which years of labor and millions of
money have been expended, but which has
been overrun by the contepding armies since
last the flowers bloomed, the fruits ripened
and the crops matured having seen for my
self the utter destruction, ruin and desola-
tion they have wrought, and feeling and ac-
the justice of the whole Of it as
visited upon the prime movers ofthe war, and
is being at once the most speedy and certain
way in which to subdue the rebellion, am,
if possible, more than ever convinced that
"slavtry is the sum of all villianies," and
have grown in my admiration of the foresight
of that great man, who said, 81 tremble for
my country when remember that God is
just and that His justice cannot sleep for

Looking Out for Sights.
The Phi ladelphia Ledger says: ~

There are some people always looking out
for sights. They cannot pay a visit, they can
not receive friend, they cannot carry on the
daily intercourse of the family, without Sesls-
pecting some offense is designed. They
are as touchy as hair triggers. If they meet
an acquaintance in the street who happens to
be pre-. occupied with business, they attribute
his abstraction to some motive personal to
themselves. and take umbrage accordingly
They blame others for their own irrtability.
A fit of indigestion makes them see imperti-
nence in everybody they come in contact with.
Innocent persons, who never dreamed of CIV
ing offense, are astonished to find some unfor-
tuhate word, or some momentary taciturnitY
has been mistaken for an insult.
To say the least, the habit is unfortunate.
It is far wiser to take the more charitable
view Of our fellow beings, and not suppose a
slight intended, unless the neglect is open
and direct. After all, too, life takes its hue,
in great degree, from the color of our
minds. If we are frank and generous, the
world treats US kindly. If, on the contrary,
we are suspicious, men learn to be cold and
cautious te US. Let a person once get the
reputation of being touchy, and everybody is
under more or less restraint in his or her
presence; and in this way the chances of an
imaginary offense are increased. You peo-
pie who fire up easily, miss deal of happi'
ness. Their jaundiced tempers destroy their
own comfort, as we'll as that of their friends
They have foreseen some fancied sights to
brood over. TIE sunny, serene contentment
of less selfish dispositions never visit them.

Had Gen. Bragg done his duty as well

Then would the Vallandighams of Ohio and

many thousand friends in Indiana, Ohio and
Illinois have joined the Southern army; then,
too, could Gen. Bragg, having cut off the
Western from the Eastern States, have whisp-
