The Gninc Of Chess.

"Peucc or War between England and
America lies now very much with the
Press of the two countries" Tho fact
is not new, but il never was 30 true as
now.
Everybody knows the Print of the
Young Man playing Chess with the Dew.
il. "Tbe game Of Life" The young
man going into the snare the evil one
has laid, is about TO make the false move
intended for him. His guardian Angel
despoirs, while Satan smiles 10 the roots
OF his hair. Such is the game wc are
engaged in, aud the Father of Evil has
too reut stukc in the result to leave
any chance for us, if at the critical point,
we allow ouf passion to master our rea-
son.
Tho great moYe on the board now is
10 get us into u war with England, aud
thereby insure the separation of the
South, the dismcmbcrmCnt of this coun-
try, the permanent establishment OF
Slave Empire, a SLAVE Aristocrncy on
t l. cjnt nenl fast le1guod with the aria
tocrncy Of the old world, for one object at
least, to put safe lock on the future
greatness of the United States. Per-
haps His majesty counts too fast il lie
relies ON all these results, but how fool
ish II would be, in moment of irritation, :,
to make just tho move he is waiting for
II is certain that our flicultics would
be enormously increased, aud success in-
definitely postponed, aud perhaps fatally
circumscribcd.
There is u powerful party in England
whore whole mind is turned TO find an
Occasion which shall onist sympothics
of the Nation in war against the u nj.
ted States. This they know can be on
ly effected by some false move ON our
part. Hence the eagernoss with which
every weapon is sought and forged that
can sting us into somo act Of impo,icnce
or retaliation. Hence the transccndcn-
tai Igcnuity Of tho surcosms of the
Times. Hence the cry of mad dog rais-
ed upon every prctence. We have
shown that we understand that game but
the great weapon TO be employed Tor this
purpose, tho dangerous weapon in such
skillull hunds, IL ths privateer question.
AS to the destruction of our ships, the
rebels know that helps them little but
Il Is the NEST famous recipe in the world
to sting us into measures that would rem
der war with Great Britain inevitable.
So they ply it with might and main, Had
we yielded to the pressure to issue let
lers OF murqur, what rjoicings it would
have created at Richmond They would
have counted tho months till war should
be declared. !, is Aeir only hope. Let
them play this last card in vain, destroy
this hope then, and we may securely
count the months il will cost TO put down
the rebellion. Let us not play into the
hands OF these clever jockies. Let us
always ask ourselves what do the Reb-
els wish us to do !"-and do the oppo.
