The Rebel women OF NashviIIe.

The rebel women of Nashville are sometimes
taken in in their exhibitions of sympathy
with Confederate soldiers. 0fthis the Dispatch
gives several amusing illustrations: one of a wo-
man who concealed a rebel prisoner Gas she sup
posed) for two odays furnished him an entire new
suit, and sent him rejoicing on his way to Dixie
That man was detectives Another woman had
a permit to take anumber of specified articles
for family use out, of Nashville, She thought
she might make a handsome speculation by
taking with her bolt of gray cloth, which
could be sold for round price down in Dixie,
and finding gentleman who was an enthnsias-
tic rebel as herself, she soon struck bargin
with him to carry it TO given point beyond the
pickets. That man was detective and Of course
the bolt of cloth was prize. Still another wo-
man, with the assistance of gentleman of re-
bellious procliyities, though stranger 10 her,
parolcd federal soldier for which she was to
receive his gun and horse and equipments A
day or two after she had a polite invitation to
visit the office of the Chief of Army Police.

A FRrEND OF THE UsIoN IN THE IMPERIAL
FAMLY.-The Paris correspondent of the New
York Times says the general feeling in France
is in favor of a continued non-intervention, but
that the Emperors sympathics are evidently
with the South, In confirmation of this view
he relates the following incident:
"a gentleman who had an interview with the
Emperor, in presence of the Imperial Prince
asked His Majesty If he thought he was going
to meet any difficulty in undertaking the dir
cotton of the education of his son? To which
the Emperor replied that he did not no but that
he should. "The boy seems disposed, he said
ito have opinions of his own Hand yesterday, >
he continued, @n hearing me say during con-
versation on American affairs. that thought
the South ought to be allowed to go out of the
Union, he took up the defense on the other side
with earnestness, and declared that was com.
nitting great wrong in speaking in favor of a
people who held men in slavery" Thus, a
sentiment Of paternal pride betrayed His Maies-
ty into the revelation of his opinions on the qnes
ton of disunion .,

WMENs, NESTS.

FOR the Fremont Jouanal.
wa EMS, NESTS.
On the topmost bough Of an old oak tree
Some wrens have a beautiful home
And though their songs are blithc and free,
No man to their nests doetll come.
High up though it is, the blushing primrose
Round the oak tenaciously clings
And its brightest blossoms gently repose
On the bough where the casket swings;
And over the way,
In the meadows near
Is heard every day
OF the live long year
The murmuring song Of tiny stream,
Whose Waters dance In the gay sunbeam.
Abroad in the world the mother ever
Seeks food for the "young wee things
Searches every nook in the woods--and then
A musical lullaby sings
To the nestlings snug in that beautiful home
Looking out upon the bright blue sky
Where the foot Of man never doth come,
And thcprimrosc climbs 50 high;
Aud over the way,
In the meadow near,
Is heard every day
of the live long year
The soug of the stream in its ebb and flow,
Like the prayerof man so soft and low.
There are wrens nests hung all over the world
Up high in the tree of life;
Above them-gods love is ever unfurled
Below them--is turmoil and strife. r.
But the power Of Tore pleasure brings
Like the roses aud ivy green
And the heart is glad, and the spirit sings
Where sympathy never hath been;
And over the way, ai
In the Heavens near,
Is heard every day
OF the live long year
The hymn of the loved, the prayer ofthe blest
Who have gone to their home, to their long
long rest. ..f . 4
Abroad in the world the mind goes at will
Picking up, here and there, gem, .r.
Which it weaves and braids with wondr' skill
In the Savours diadem.
While love aud beauty their magic blend,
Like theroses and ivy green, 1l
And comfort, heaven born solace send,
Where sympathy never hath been;
-ta And over the way,
In the Heavens near,
Is heard all day Fg
OF the live long year
The songs Of the Angels in tones so low,
That it seems like a dream of "Long ago"

The Hon. Henry May of Baltimore, who is
believed to be better acquainted with the feel

of the South believe, and believe, that there is

allowed, and that no future political union, as
long as Slavery exists can ever be maintained
between them upon any basis whatever"
Mr.. May went oil to say that the only altetna-

Mr.. Vallandgham for laying 80 much stress up

n.s SOhn van nuren on inc war
Al the New York Cooperation Dinner on the
2Sd, John Van Buren made speech, in which
he denied that he had been anything but a war
Democrat. wequote from the report in the
Times. Mr.. Van Buren, said
When the country is engaged in war like
this, every man has one simple duty to perform
either to take part with those who are in open
opposition to the United States or TO assist in
the suppression of the rebellion. Auplause.1
We are at war. II is not tirpe to discuss how
we got into it. He did not believe the war was
to be put down by discussion. We are not 10
discuss now whether the action Of the Govern
ment has been wise OF unwisc. We must take
the war as we find it, engage In II, and put it
through until it is finished, and then there will
be day of reckoning for those who brought il
on us, But the war is here and we must de-
termine what we win do with rcgatd to it. He
denied that he had ever been in favor Of any
thing short Of prosecuting the war with vigoE
and reiterated, in most unmistakeable terms, his
present belief that the war should be prosecuted
with vigor in spite Of the proclamaions, which
he di d not think could do omuch harm. He said
that, in his opinion, the north must in the end
have more endurance than the south, and conse-
qucntly victory. He urged the utmost sympa-
thy and support for our brethren in the field
aud as the only salvation for the Republic. Let
us first show the south our power and then Offer
them the cancellations of the Constitution, and
protection for their property and institutions

The Nashville Union ON the ProcIama-

.. II .NaH D.
The Nashville Union thus meets aud most
emphntically contradicts the thousand times re-
peated allegation that the Emancipation Proc
lamation made rebels out of Union men. The
Union evidently speaks by card;
But we are told that it has exasperated the
Southern people, and made rebels of loyal men.
We deny It positively and defy any one to pro-
duce evidence that such is the fact. Show us
one Union man who has faltcred in consequences
of the Emancipation Proclamation. We have
heard good deal of such stuff; and demand the
proof 1t is not true; not one word Of it, On
the contrary, it is an atrocious calumny against
body ofmen who are not so depraved as topre-
ferproperty TO country. The very wHrmest Ed-
vocates Of the Proclamation are large slavehold-
ers Of this State and Alabama; and the most ra-
dical letter we have yet seen on this subject, we
received a short time ago, from large slavehold-
er Of Kentucky.

CAMP sEAR STAFFORD CoURT HoUsE, !
Feb. %, 1863.
Ills EIcellency President of the United States
We can celebrate the birthday Of the great
Father Of this Republic in no more appropriate
manner than by addressing you, Sir, renewed
expression Of the sentiments which animated
us when we took arms for the defense Of the in
tegrity of the Union, and which, since that day,
has never ceased to aniinate us. @
We have learned with the deepest concern
that efforts are made in the loyal States TO de-
nolarize the conseiences Of the people by false
representations TO undermine the ~ mpathies Of
the masses with the great cause which is the
subject Of this conflict to cmbarrass the Gov
eminent in the prosecution Of the war, and thus
10 deliver the Republic into the hands Of her
enemies. We cannot find language strong
enough TO express our adherence of the fact
ious men who carry on these reasonable mach
nations
They have taken advantage Of certain meas
ures the Government adopted for the purpose Of
putting down the rebellion, aud, as Just in then-
selves, we hail the measures as evidences Of that
energy and determination which alone can lead
us to victory. We are as ready as ever to fight,
suffer and die for the sacred cause Of the Union,
which is the cause of human liberty and pro-
gress and more ready than ever to punish trait
Ors at home Just as well as the rebels in arms.
We hope to sec day Of reckoning between
those who went into the field willing to sacri-
fee their all for their country. and those miscr-
able hypocrits who at the commencement Of the
war cringcd before the majestic uprising ofpop-
ular enthusiasm, aud now avail themselves Of an
hour of misfortune and danger to defeat our eff
forts, to barter away the great future Of this
Union, and to trihe with the blood Of the peo-
pic. s,sa. -iA
On us, sir you can rely. BY the memory oi
the illustrious patriot whose birthday we cclc-
brate, by the blood of the many brave men
whom We saw dropping from our ranks on the
field of battle, we renew to-day the oath we once
have taken, and will fight against the enemies
of the country, North and South, to the bitter
end. Whatsoever hardships and privations the
war may bring upon us we will endure-wc
will think of no peace but the peace which will
spring from final and complete triumph ofour

Very short and very ConcIusIye.

One ofthe delights of butternut dsorganizers,
has been to expatiate upon the tremendous ex-
pendturc for the contrabands at Hilton Head
and elsewhere. They have made the most tre-
mendous fancy sketches Of what untold sums of
money were being paid and all for no advan-
tage A late response of Secretary Chase to a
resolution of the House thus puts final extin-
guisher upon all these fabricatons, designed to
promote discomfort aud division among loyal
people:
Il embrace with pleasure this opportunity of
rectifying false impressions, ndustriously prop
agated that the collection of cotton aud the care
of plantations and laborers OH the Sea Islands OF
South Carolina has been attended with great
cost TO the Government. So far from the truth
is this statement that there is now in the hands
of the Assistant Treasurer at New York, half
million Of dollars saved through these operations
which at this moment belongs more rightfully
to the laborers who planted, cultivated and
gathered the cotton, than to any other possible
claimant.
