A southern opinion 9th. YANKEES.

The subjoined article appeared in the Nash
vile Courier couple ofyears ago. We rath-
er guess the editor has had reason to change
his opinion since that time about g Yankee
cowardice. Ifthe Northern people are, re-
ally, the cravens and dastards described by
the Courier, how humiliating it must be to
Southern pride to be "cleaned out" by
| ss base-borned Yanks ~
"~rhis has been called fratricidal war by
some; by others an irrepressihle conflict be-
tween freedom and slavery. We respectfully
take issue with the authors of both these
ideas. We are not the brothers of the Yam
KEGS. and the slavery question is merely the
preterf, not the cause of the war. The true
irrepressible conflict lies fundamentally in
the hereditary hostility, the sacred animosity,
the eternal antagonism between the two races
engaged. The Norman cavalier cannot brook
the vulgar familiarity of the Saxon Yankee,
whilst the latter is continually devising some
nlan to bring down his aristocrasneighbor to
his own detested level. Thus has the contest
waged in the old United States. So long as
Dickinson oughfaces were to be bought.
and Cochrane towards to be frightened, so
long was the Union tolera5le to Southern
men but when. owing to divisions In our
ranks, the Yankee birlings placed one of
their own spawns over us, political connec-
ton became uncomfortable, and separation
necessary to preserve our self respect. As
our Norman kinsman in England, always
minority, have ruled their Saxon couutrymen
in political vassalaee up to the present day,
so have we, the /" slave oligarchs," governed
the Yankees till within twelve month. We
framed the Constitution. for seventy years
moulded the policy of the Government, and
placed eur own men, or Northern men with
Southern principles in power. On the 9th
Of November, 1860, the Puritans emancipa-
ted themselves ard are now in violent insur
rection against theif former owners. This
insane freak will not last long, however, for
dastards in fight and incapable of selfgov-
ernment. they will inevitably again falLun-
der the control of the superior race. A few
more Bull Run thrashings will bring them
once more under khe yoke as docile as the
most loyal of our Nshiopian chattles.'

THE Richmond Examiner tells the following 9
story of the capture and death of the notori
Gus John Morgan. 1t seems that he was on
reconnaissance near Greenville. East Ten
Eessee, and using the privilege of his high
wayman's practice, took lodgings at an lnvit-
ing house near the village. This pleasant
little house was the residence of Mrs.
Williams, whose husband is an officer on
Gen. Burnside's staff. Mrs. Williams kept
quiet until the guerrilla chief fell asleep
Then she hastily procured a horse, rode at
full speed for fifteen miles, and returned with
a small squad of Union soldiers. just as
they arrived. Morgan awoke. and, seeing his
danger. broke from the house, but he was
confronted on all sides by bayonets. Des-
perate at being thus caught by woman, he
drew his revolver, swore he would n01be ta-
ken alive, and undertook to break 4lough
the guard. They ired-and John Morgan 8
career of infamy and blood was inished.
