The following is an extract from let
TOR from Mexico, published in French
paper;
The Mexican people do not rise en- masss
against us because there is no unity in
the nation; but on every side parties are
formed; bands of guerrillas, soldiers es-
capped from Puebla, and Mexico, attack
us every where; they meet us, and then
resorting to reprisAls, we impose on the
villages which recaive these armed bands
extraordinary contributions, zoe shoot those
wlo lend them saRport-sad necessities.-
Here we see what the French in Mexi-
co are doing with those who lend support
TO Mexican guerrillAs. The JEFF, Davis
despotism, rebels and rebel sympathizers
here, all side with the French Despot in
his invasion of Mexico. Suppose the
Federal Generals take lessons from the
French in Mexico and shoot the rebels
who lend support TO rebel guerr illas?
This would be but even handed justice,
according to rebel logic.

why Nor gan Inva ded Indiana.

why Morgan Invaded Indiana,
The Atlanta OonfederAcy publishes q
letter written by Lieut.. Col. II. w. Aston,
Morgan's AdjutAnt- General, TO a friend,
which gives US the only reliable reason
for MorgAn's raid into Indiana which we
have yet seen. He says:
BURNSIDE becoming alarmed for fear
of formidable invasion of Kentucky
under Buckner--fOr we had reported
ourselves as his advance guard-put his
whole force on our track, and moved all
his supplies back 20 camp Dick Robinson.
IL, therefore, was just as safe for us to
20 forward as return, and now our prin-
cipAl object was to keep as many troops
employed and for 80 long time as pos
sible, in order to give Bragg time to
make good his retreat TO Chattanooga.
The strategy succeeded, and instead OF
Burnside reaching Knoxville by the OH
Of July, he did not get there until about
the 9th Of September. The object OF
our expedition, therefore, was partially
accomplished, and il was worth the sac
riHce Of all we lost which was about
fifteen hundred men and horses and two
pieces Of artillery"

Ixon,uoEv ConservntIsm.

a heDtuCky CONSERVATIVE WIN hhh
evidently graduated in the school of the
Louisville Journal, wrote letter on the
9th inst, 10 Gov. Bramlette. He tells
the Governor that he has read his call for
Volunteers in the city papers, and that
ait looks like patriotism, reads like it,
aud sounds like il, but" he asks, care
you not acting in concert with dOmi
nAnt party, more destructive to the Gov
eminent and TO the interest Of the people
Of Kentucky, than the armed rebels
themselvesP He tells the Governor
that he has lost nine negro men, who
have joined a negro regiment, and he ex-
presses the opinion that it must be APP
parent 20 him (tho Governor) that "the
object Of the war 10 not for the purpose
Of restoring the Union, but for the
overthrow Of the institution of slavery,
and with IL the utter bankruptcy
of all shareholders" and he declares that
any man in Kentucky who will fight in
the cause lis not aotuated by any patri-
otism or love of country, but does 60 from
love Of money, or from ignorance of
the true position of things" We have
taken the trouble TO make the foregoing
abstract of the Conservatives letter, that
our readers may understand the spirit of
conservatism in Kentucky. The writer
may believe himself Union man, but it
is manifest that he is not, and that he
cannot be, unless q great change comes
over him. He is n rebel and negro wor-
shipper. He exAlts the negro above the
government; and would, rather than part
with his human chattles, see the whole
country involved in anarchy and desola-
tion. His nine negro men at present
prices, are worth, say $1,000. What is
that less compared to the loss of the
blessings Of good government? Thou
sands Of white mon have laid down their
lives, and their wives and children have
been thereby utterly bankrupted, and
thrown upon the cold charities of the
world Are their losses not greater than
this Kentucky Conservatives q? What is
it about negro property that invests
il with a sacredness beyond all
other species of properly? If this mis-
cradle palterer with his country's glory
and honor, had lost ten thousand dollars
worth of corn, or flour, or tobacco, or
horses, we presume it might have been
right and proper; but to lose nine negroes,
TO contribute nine black soldiers to the
defence of HIS country, is horrible to
contemplate! In our opinion, all such
men belong to the rebels, and would be
in the rebel ranks but for their native
cowardice. Out upon all of them
Gov. Bramlette, approaching his cor
respondents patriotism, honors him with
most scAthing reply. We suspect the
fellow will not soon trouble him with
another reasonable 'epistle. If he can
contemplate himself without disgust in
the glass which the Governor holds up
to his view, he has face harder than
brass, and a conscience of the most plAs-
tic material
