Such is the source Of the at
lacks made upon the Union club Of
Nashville. The men who compose il are
of the most su b~stantial citizens Of
Tennessee, and own more negroes than
are owned in the Democrat office, told a
thousand times over. In answer to the
Democrats charge y that the editor Of
this paper is not a Tennesseap, all we
have TO say is that every vote we ever
gave in u life, was given within twenty
miles of the Tennessee line, and although
unfortunately, we are poor, all we pos
sess in the world is in a slave State, aud
half Of all we are worth is slave property.
The charge that we ever abused the
ladies Of Nashville, or villiied her most
estimable citizens, the multitudes who
have read our paper daily know to Be
utterly false,
And the newspaper which published
such stuff 10 the world, the very dregs Of
disaffection and treason, has the assn
rance to dictate TO loyal Tennesseans,
denounce them for daring TO expresstheir
sentiments, and set Itself up as the true
oracle Of patriotism The u Of the
Union needs no such aids and defenders
as the ghost of the Nashville Banner, OF
the Louisville Democrat, whose sole vital
ity is in its own corruption. 1t is the
impudent and unauthorized declarations
of such teachers, which have made pa
triots doubt the genuineness Of Southern
loyalty. We need hardly say thai
the Nashville UNION has incurred the
fierce and implacable hatred of all thes,
false teachers. 1t is an i~nsurmountabl,
barrier in their way. They envy its bril-.
liant success, and trem5le st its fast anC
far extending influence. Hence the ex.
t~raOrdipsry efforts which several Ken
lucky copperheAds have made to start

break down, or at least cripple the Nash.

10 accordance with the recent order of
Gen. MITCHELL, requiring all white per-
sons over the age Of eighteen years, &c,
TO take tue oath Of allegiance, / walked
TO fhe capitol yesterday, in company with.
a number OF adopted American loyal
citizens, TO inquire whether il was neces-
sary for loyal adopted citizens to again
take the oath Of allegiance. Being an
swered in the affirmative, and always
willing to comply with the laws, rules,
and regulations Of our country, we al
Voluntarily subscribed to the oath, and
on going home | felt that | discharged
only my duty rs a true, loyal citizen
but was deeply mortified on looking over
this mornings Union, TO be called a sum-
pafhiSer with this cursed rebellion. sir,
l am unable 20 bear il 20 be called asym-
pathizer with this REBELLION. You NAV
charge me with anything else but that.
You say il is understood that those who
have been unquestionably loyal to the
Government need not take the oath, aud
that tits only intended for rebel sympatii-
GERS, &c. You may have known that it
is only intended for rebel sympathizers,
but il is not so understood by the ma
jority Of the people, as the order heads
very plain an white citizens under eight
cen years of age, &c. II it was so I'M
derstood, you would have conferred a
favor on a number Of your friends, who
feel deeply mortified this morning by
being olassed among the rebel s~ympadizers,
if you had published your explanation
of the Ordpr qDoupr
No REBLL SYMpArHtzER.
Our friend misunderstood us. We GER
tainIy intended TO cast no reflection upon
any one who took the oath, nor did we
wish TO intimate that because a man had
taken the oath be must have been a rebel
previously, We are sure that the oath
has been taken by many as loyal citizens
as live. Bat this does not alter the cor
rections Of our former statement that the
order was intended to reach d~isloyal,
and not loyal people. A man may have
been perfectly loyal, and yet there may
be good reason, in the judgment of the
authorities, for requiring him to make a
declaration Of allegiance, Our friend
showed the right spirit in complying
willingly. If the authorities think that
il will do good 10 the cause, we are per-
fectly willing to climb the tower of the
capitol, lay hold of the American flag,
and while our friend Col. MARTIN admin
listers the oath to us, as he stands upon
the golden oruciax Of the Catholic church,
shout amen to every word Of il, in the
presence Of assembled thousands, The
oath OF loyalty will hurt no true mans
conscience,

PIEs.-We are down" on pie, not, how
ever, in so great degree as we condemn
pork. Pies, made in the proper manner,
are not necessarily unwholesome, but in
the hands Of ordinary cooks they are tire.
mendous weapons of offense. The IN
wholesomeness Of pes arise mainly from
the quantity of butter (shortening) en-
ploycd in the pastry. Fruit baked be-
tween two cru,ts is not unhealthy, but
the crust itself is, and lies heavy on the
stomach. The butter turns sour, gives
fatu!ence, and creates distress generally
in p rsous Of ordinary digestive force.
In the country everybody eats pie; at
morning, noon and night there is a del
uge of pie which old and young eagerly
attack. The little children cry for i,
the old ones demand it and we heard
with horror. on one occasion, woman
relate that she had just baked IL pies
for the week. How many is there in
your family p we asked "Two" she
said. Comment is superhuous, Here
are two people who eat IL pies a week,
quite matter Of course. They were
always signing and complaining the
husband was downcast and unhappy, and
always taking "tonics," and they were at
a loss to imagine why life seemed So COM
monplace and dull. We ventured to sug-
gest that the IL pies weekly had some
responsibility in the matter, but were
met with scorn and derision. This is
not solitary case; We might cite many
others, and if the reader lives in the
country his observation will bear US out
in our statement. Pie is good thing
in its way, but it is not household god,
and TO live on it mainly is to be dyspep-
tic and full of all manner of minor trou-
BILE. The man who introduced pie and
pork as articles of diet had great deal
to answer for; and consumers of such
edibles have usually heavy doctors
bill to settle annually.

A FAITHFUL MAsrIFF--The tanner
had masIiff that guarded his yard by
night. The tanner had foreman who
lived with him many years - before the
purchase OF the mastiff, indeed. As the
foreman was more about the premises
than any one else, and as moreover it was
his business to see that the cog was regu
lagly fed, the greatest good feeling existed
between them. 1t happened however.
that the foreman's integrity was doubted,
and he was summarily discharged, and
another man taken on in bis place. II
seemed that there was ample ground for
tuspectng the honesty OF the old fore
man: for within a month of being dis
charged he conceived the notion OF rob
bing his late employer, by removing a
cart-load of hides in the night, assuming
that bis intimate acquaintance with the
yard.dog would protect him from diff
Guilty in that quarter. So in the dead Ct
the night he drove his cart just under the
wall of the lanyard, and standing on the
top of the gate and dropped into the yard.
The mastfi, instantly knowing the man,
offered no resistance, nor in any way be
tokened his surprise at the nocturnal visit,
beyond following the visitor about pretty
closely. The hides were selected and
tossed, one by one, over the wall into the
cart aud than the thief, patiing the dogs
head by the way of thanking him for his
non interference, began to scale the gate.
This act, however seemed to convince
the dog that something must certainly be
wrong. For although there might be a
reason for climbing Ia, there could be no
excuse for climbing ont, when there was
a gate. a touch at the bolt Of which would
give easy and proper exit so, without
troubling his head further about the mat
ter, he seized the ex-foreman by the leg
and there held him till the arrival Of the
tanners in the morning.

we should think not. A tablespoonful

stomach is not apt to induce the most
sensations, and those persons
who persist in using pork in any shape,
would find themselves better off without
it. Down with the sausage! Let US

At fredericksburg.

A.
1t was just before the last fierce charge
When two soldiers drew their rein,
For a parting word and touch of hands
They might nevermeet again
One had blue eyes and clustering eurls--
Nineteen bat month ago
Down on his chin, red on his check
He was only boy, you know.
The other was dark, and stern, and proudj
If his faith in the world was dim,
He only trusted the more in those
Who are all the world to him.
They hadridden together in many raid,
They had marched for many mile,
And ever till now they had met the foe
With u calm and hopeful smile.
But now they looked in each others eyes
With an awful CHASTITY gloom,
AID the tall, dark man was the first to speak :
Charlie, my hour has come.
We shall ride together up the hill,
But you will ride back alone;
Promise little trouble to take
For me when nm gone.
You will find face upon my breast
| shall wear it into the fight
with soft blue eyes and sunny curls,
And a smile like morning light
Like morning light was her love to me;
II gladdcnod lonely life,
And little cared for the frowns Of fate
When she promised to be my wife.
Write to her, Charlie, when I am gone,
And send back the fair, fond face
Tell her tcndery how died,
And where is my resting place.
Tell her my soul viii wait for hers,
In the border land between
The earth and heaven, until she comes:
It will not be long Iwecn.'
Tears dimmed the blue eyes Of the boy
His voice was low with pain;
I will do your bidding, comradc mine,
If ride back again.
But if you come back, and am dead,
You must do as much for me;
Ny mother at home must hear the news
Oh, write to her tenderly.
One after another those she loved
She has buried, husband and son;
was the last. When my country called,
She kissed me and sent me on.
She has prayed at home, like a waiting saint
With her fond face white with woe:
Her heart will be broken Wien am gone
shall see her soon know
just then the order came to charge
For an instant hand touched hand,
Eye answered eye; then on they rushed,
That brave, devoted band.
Straight they went toward the crest Of the hill
And the rebels with shot and shell
Flowed riffs of death through their toiling ranks,
And jeered them MS they fell.
They turned with horrible dying yell
From the heights they could not gain,
And the few whom death and doom had spared
Went slowly back again.
But among the dead whom they left behind
Was the boy with his curling hair
And the stern dark man who marched by his side
Lay dead beside hime there.
There is no one to write to the blue eyed girl
The words that her lover said;
And the mother who waits for her boy at home
VIII but learn that he is dead,
And never can know the last fond thought,
That sought to soften her pain,
Until she crosses the River Of Death,
And stands by his side again.
