Words Of Truthand soberness

In pamphlet recently addressed to the
people of Alabama by Hon. d, G. HuMPH-
REYs, citizen Of that State, well known
for his consistent devotion to the Union and
his opposition to the schemes of the seces-
sionists, occurs the following paragraph
"As long as the political connection re-
mained. the South never was at the mercy
or will of the North. If we once had good
government, and that was during che Union
of the States, why may we not have re-
union of the same States with all the equal
ity that ever existed p wo1eS4 .
5"Any policy on our part" says the Wash
ington Iatelligencer, most truly, (which
makes it difficult to answer this latter ques-
tion without throwing all the blame for that
difficulty on the wickedness Of the insurgent
leaders IS policy which pro tlnto aids and
abets the latter, while it discourages and
repels the allies of the Union in the South,
men who, like Mr.. Humphreys, are not
afraid to lift their voices in defence on the
Union, but who, between the upper and ne
ther milestone Of the revolutionary purpos
es avowed at the North and at the South,
conflicting passions generated by the phren
zy of war shall have spent its force l
"The theory of secession is little other
than organic Weakness reduced to system,
but what that system lacks in cohesive pow
erwe have supplied by the way Of external
compression, in the shape of minatory pro
clamations, contiscation acts, an other dis
abling statutes, aimed at the people of the
South when we should have directed all of
our efforts to the single end Of suppressing
the military power in which the insurrec'
tionrlives and moves and has its being.
Without, in the slightest degree, adding
to our material or moral resources these de-
nunciatory proclamations and elaborate
penal liabiltie have SO solidiGed and unit
ed the Southern people that they are, seen
willing to endure at the hands Of the usurp
ing authorities in Richmond an amount OF
oppression which serves to illustrate in a
most signal manner the sincerity of the
fears inspired among the Southern people oy
what they understand to be the intentions
Of our Government in prosecuting the war. .

tic valley of the Nenishnabotany we could
snap our fingers at the hills to the left over
which we have SO often toiled in days gone
by and no more to return. The ride home
was shortened by the agreeable conversation
Of friend Buckingham, who has charge Of
Uncle Sans mail bags on the Valley road
and who besides being very faithful! route
agent, is most kind and genial companion.
We are most favorably impressed with the
enterprise Of the Valley Railroad Co. They
have pushed on their road in the face of
difficulties truly formidable. In doing this
they have been assisted in no small degree
by Superintendent Williams, who has prov.
ed himself among the most successful and
able Railroad managers in the country. The
work of grading is being prosecuted with en-
ergy, beyond Osksloosa, and it is con6ednt-
ly expected that the cars will run to Pella
early the present Fall. This will be 1 17miles
from Keokuk, and when it is considered
that there is not 1T miles Of country any
where possessing greater resources, some
idea may be formed Of the business Of the
road when completed thus far.
