Taking the Oath Under Protest,

The Louisville Democrat says a,few weeks
ago laughable incident occurred in the
neighborhood Of Nashville, which is worthy
Of record. A saucy, dashing Young girl, Of
the Southern persuasion, was, With a number
of other ladies, brought into tie presence Of
Gen. Rosecranz, in order that their Southern
ardor might be checked by the administration
of the oath Of loyalty. The bold, brighteyed
Juno in question objected to taking the oath,
saying that her mother had taught her that
it was wrong to swear; that her social educat
ton had instructed her that it was unlady-.
like to swear; her sense Of morality forbid
her to swear, and swear she could not. The
