ulators will reap the benefit Of the in
crease. The consumer in the end bears
the burthen, aud either the Government
or unscupulous sreculators are enriched
by the additional taxation. Recruits in
large numbers are daily going forward
to the Army of the Potomac, and rumors
of an early advance are rife. Lee can
not long remain in his present condition,
with Grant and Sherman threatening
advances on his flank and rear Refu-
gees are coming in daily, and fully con-
firm the reports of the state of things in
the South.
As | predicted in former letter, hos
tilities in Europe have actually com
mencod 1t is said, Lord Palmerston
has asked that hossilities cease for ight
weeks between the German States and
Denmark. England, after another grand
display of diplomatic genius and skill,
will at last draw in her horns and
pocket the insult offered her. Republi-
canism in Europe, as well as in America,
must and will triumph over Aristocracy
A Fair, in aid of the families of vol
unteers and to raise funds for the Chris
tian Commission, is now going on in the
Patent Office in this city. Already ov, r
1000 season tickets have been sold, and
the entire enterprise promises to be a
great snccess.

To hear men who have never read the
Constitution, and never heard it read,
ranting about its violation.
To hear men who never did day s
labor in their lives bowling about the in
fux of negroes and the injury to white
la5orers
To hear men rave about the Presi-
dents violation of the Constitution who
are so utterly stupid or knavish that
they have never ascertained that the re-
bellion is in violation of the Constitu.
ton.
To hear men who care not for law
for God nor man-and who live in daily
violation of law, pratipg about law.
To hear men who, were they South
would be treated as the poorest and
meanest of "white trash, taunted a.
''mudsills, greasy mechanics" &c.
uphold the very men who so degrade la
bpr and despise those who do not owl
niggers.
To hear them justifying JEFF
Davis and the South, who have not the
manhood and decency to go South anC
seek home which they like so well.
To hear a man who loves slavery NOR,
than his country or freedom.
To hear a drunken, leprous, thick
headed, gaunt-looking, libel upon man
hood, belching out Abolition!
| To hear man talk about peace ant
compromise, after he has been kicked
and spit upon by the South Os,oey,

THE NASHVILLE TMEs-Ths new dai-
ly started in Nashville by Mr.. Mercer,
speaks out on the Slavery question with
out any hesitation whatever. We quote
few of its paragraphs:
''The Press says that the honest Eman-
cipationists are for compensated emanci-
patton on the principle Unnatural equity
A plain man wonld imagine that accor-
ding to the principle of natural equity,
Slavery could not exist at all. Certainly
natural equity would say that a slave
holder deserved neither pay nor thanks
for releasing from Slavery one to whose
labor he had no claim whatever. 1t
would say that if there was any compen.
sation in the case, the master should
compensate the liberated slave for years
of unpaid service.
Slavery is not only the sum of all
human villainies, as John Wesley, rather
moderately expressed it, but it is the sum
of all the villainies in hell and we ask the
devils pardon when we say so.
"The institution of Slavery has become
a running commentary upon the rebellion.
Confederate revenues are admirably
described by the school-boy's definition
of chaos; great pile of nothing and nc
place to put it in.

Lines on the Death of Diekey.

Lines on the Death of Diekey.
Our D.ckey was no common cat
To cat Ii a mouse or kill a rat
Though he did hqt with right good vii.
And often, we thought, with sxtra skill
He had, beside his work asd plays,
So many pretty charming ways.
So gently he your hand would tap,
Or lay his paw uSon your lap,
To let you know that he was there
1t dinner, too, TO claim his share,
He did not growl, or scratch, or new,
Or steal-as oft we we seen cats do
But always asked for what he wanted,
For well he knew it would be granted.
Although he used no language more
Than cats we oft have seen before,
His actions to his lsnguate lent
Suck aid, we knew what Dickey meant;
For as he by the door would sit,
And look at us, and then at it,
We d ask-Dickey, do you want through?
lie d answer with gentle new.
Though arild birds often he has caught,
And once pigeon to us brought,
Our canaries-often in his reach
Dickey was never known TO touch.
Often on our lap he sat aud purred--
Sometimes this favor he demurred;
Sometimes he walked out by our side,
And waved his tail-hia greatest pride.
If you stopped down his back to stroke,
He always gave grateful look;
And when you smoothed his pretty fur,
He thanked you with gentle rurr,
hv q hind and wi
Proved that he was friend most true.
These actions remember well,
And many others we might tell.
Now that he IS dead, we surely miss
The welcome face of Dieksy Smith.
ON February's twenty y-seventh day,
As in a box we did him lay,
And softly smoothed his pretty fur,
We did not heer his grateful purr.
Slo wly aud sadly We laid him down,
Two feet or more beneath the ground.
burial thus to him we gave,
And dropped a tear upon his grave.
Perhap dear reader, now you smile,
To Glipk that thought it worth my while,
Or that l wonld take up my time,
About cat to make rhyme.
But stop and hink: We often find
The lolcer animals more kind
Than man, whose reason teaches him,
While instinct snly teaches them.
