In reference TO our Nationai Affairs how
many people act the part of the toolieh
anu ;!!eeesnondent farmer. Like him they
see in every delay, ropulso a'd reverse,
the prestage Of our certain and terrible
doom. The discovery of dishonest pay
master is enough to destroy their ltt'e re-
remaining faith in the pecuniary ability Of
the country to meet the heavy drain upon
its resources. It the programme of mag
NATIVE newspaper correspondents in re-
gard to any particular eXpe itioa Is not
fully realized, it is set down As All irrepar-
able disaster, and torthw tn the bright ho-
rzon is full Of storm clouds from which
they anticipate the beIrhiug forth Of I'M
media destruction. The foolish flrmer
who would give up all effort TO prepare
hIs grounds t0rgets that there is promise
that seed time aud harvest shall not fui,
and the equally desponiing observer Of
our national struggle torePts that our gov
eminent and the people who hvu under it
are just as much III tho hands of High
roEcr as arc the affairs Of tho husband,
man. II for a tine, even ior lUuL timr,
things seem 10 go wrong; if rebellion
seems to prosper and LOYALTY to sudor re-
Nc Sea, let it he remembered that human
COVE rnmcnt has hren 0r,ainc hv as firm
a decree rs that by which The seasons 10
vuive, and that every reople though atil Ct
ell and diSappon'el in many of their
hopes and expectations, will have just suyh
& vernment as they deserve ;tud such
an one AS is best suited to their condition.
But there is one Indispensable condition to
its maintenance. That condition, under
the present circumstances Is, to 6gbt for
ii. Assaled as it is by a great and we'll
organized rebellion, and secretly assailed
by frsign enemies who would rejoice at
its downfall, there is but one way to per
petuate it. And terrible as that WAY is,
it has been through all time the one by
which imperilled governments have been
relieved and their perpetuity secured
When the rmer can have crops without
labor-without blowing and Swing and
harvesting may look for good gov
eminent without making sacrifices to Sc
Gu it. Bob are secured by an immuta-
bic law which man cannot annul or DEFY
with IMMUNITY.
