Missouri and Kentucky Haunted their banner of defiance
to the breeze before North Carolina bad the bunting
for her ensigu.-Jaetson (Aiss) Crisis
Yes, and that is about all they have been doing
SINCE North Carolina has sent eighty thousand
men to Eight for the South, and to fight against
it. Thousands Of Kentuckians and Missourians are
now under Llncoln's colors. Those two States hsye
done as much against they have for the Southern
cause If they intend to join the Southern Confed-
eracy, let them do SO, and co so quickly.
"Who would be free 6imssy must strike the blow"
1t does not become Mississippi to tsunt North
Carolina If the former was among the first to
leave the old Union she has not gone before North
Carolina in sacrifices and suferings in the commcn
cause North Carolina can do quite as well with
out Mississippi as Mississippi can do without her.

PETER COOPER of New York, has addressed
d long letter TO Gov. SEYMOUR, in which he
claims the righ., as a Democrat nearly 73
years of age, and a soldier in the war Of 1872,
to plead with his "countrymen of all the
shades of political opinions, and to beseech
them by every consideration that can move
our manhood to look at the dangers which
threaten us as a nalion.n He argues against
the States Right doctrine; asks if il has been
found impossible to restrain the few active
abolisionisis, who were IN the country when
the war began what can be accomplished when
by the course of events, they hive multiplied
one hundred, or thousand fold; brings evi-
depce 10 show that the Presidents Emancpa-
lion Proclamation has done more TO weaken
the rebellion and prevent foreign recognition
than any measure that could have been adopt
ed; denounces the making Slavery the corner
stone of their proposed Coufederacy by the
rebe Is and expaiiates on the benefit which viii
result TO the South from emancipation. In
conclusion. he begs the Governor TO exert bis
Influence for the vigorous prosecution of the
war saying; 81 do not know single man in
the whole nation, who has the power to do SC
much to strengthen the hands of the Govern
ment as yourself Your efforts may prevent
foreign interference in our affairs, and enable
our Government the sooner TO bring the re
belion to an end The influence you can ex
ert would do an immense amount of good, by
persuadiug our Democl ate friends to give tbei
whole strength to more vigorous prosecu
tion of the war.
