better than they do their country. 1t ap-
pears to them very proper that true Patriot
ism should bleed upon the battlefield, but
the Government, to pay these brave men,
must do nothing which, no matter how re-
motley. effects the sensitive nerve leading to
their pockets. That would never do! Mon
ey is worthy of more consideration than the
blood and life of our brave soldiers. and to
shield their plethoric moncy-bags, they strike
hands with men who avow their hostility to
the Government. Such men are not patriots;
their professions are idle breath their friend
ship is more to he dreaded :han their enmity;
they corrupt whatever they touch. Hereafter
let such men be remembered. and the punish
ment of Cain follow them wherever they go.
