A trifing sort of fellow not long since
won the affections of the daughter of

On asking the old man for her, he opened

1t makes a great difference whose OK

traitors rise against the Government of
their country, and sacrifice the lives of
thousands of loyal men BY their treason,
they expect to be treated with all the

probable, and the slaees of these traitors

Many of the Yankee troops are nine

Up TO that time they will be available, and
we may be sure that all the fighting that

TO THE "PEACE MEN" AT THE NORTH.
From the Richmond Despatch.

FIom the Richmond Despatch.
Mr.. Brooks appears to be in earnest in
these extravagant propositions, strange as
it may appear to any man who has pos
session Of his senses for, upon the occa-
sion of presenting them, he made long
speech, aud expressed himself coufdent
of their success. Are the Northern peo
pie all natural born fools, or are they only
stricken with that judicial madness which
we are told the gods always infict upon
the victims of their wrath preparatory to
their ruin :? Can they suppose tha. the
South is as galless and as lilIy-lIvered as
themselves, and that they are willing for
mere considerations of interest, to forget
the unhoard of outrages under which they
have suffered during this war? Can they
believe them capable of so soon buryiDg
in oblivion all that they have done and
all that they have suffered :?
If the whole Yankee rcce should fall
down in the dust tomorrow, and pray US
to be their masters, we would spurn them
as slaves. Our oDl " wish is to be separ
ated from th EN- finally aud forever-nev-
er to see the face of one of them again
never to hear the voice of another YaD-
kee on the south side of the Potomac, or
the north-to have no trafc and no in
tercourse of any description whatever with
them. We are fighting for separation,
and we will have it, if it cost the life of
every man in the Confederate States.
We are aware that many persons be-
lieve that the party of which Brooks and
Van Buren, are the representatives, desire
and design to restore peace, and that, at
present, they dare not speak oct their
real sentiments, which are in favor of sep
aration. We do not believe they are in
favor of any such thing. They would
like peace on condition of our return
to the Union, and they are fools enough
to believe that a majority of the people
in the Contederacy are in favor of reunion.
They would like peace on these terms,
because it would restore the commercial
supremacy of the North, and especially
of the city of New York, which is gone
forever if the Union be not restored
But they are as bitterly opposed to sep
aration as Lincoln is, himself, or any of
the thieves and murderers who lead his
armies.
In the event of our refusal to return to
the Union, they would, they own, unite in
bounding on the assassins who are desc
lating our country aud numbering our
people as fercely as they have ever been
bounded on by Beecher and Hale. They
look only to their pockets when they
preach of reconciliation aud restoration
If the same object could be affected by
entirely destroying the people of the
Southern States, and they thought it as
easy to do, they would recommend it as
the best of all possible policy Let them
be satlefed, however President Davis
expressed the sentiment of the entire
Confederacy,n his speech the other night,
when be said the people would sooner
unite with nation of hyeDas than with
the detestable and de;ested Yankee na.
ton. Anything but that. English col
onizatiou, French vassalage, Russian serf-
dom-all, all are preferable to any asso-
citation with the Yankees.
