The Beam and the '.Mote. "-Ou

contemporary of the Randolph Journal,

good Union men in speaking about the

.infernal," DC, and concludes they are
not ..suited to do good in any way''-not

.tshall receive greater damnation,'' and
asks the pertinent question: show shall
We escape the damnation of hell?' But
enough The pious editor of the Journal,
whilst he breaches the doctrine of speak
ing of this most wicked and causeless
rebellion-this objectionable inequity of
trying to destroy the BEST Government

bated breath and honeyed words, forgets

those who are opposing the measures of
the Administration for putting down the
rebellion.
The example of so pious a man as the
editor Of the Journal viii certainly be
prenicious, especially on the young
causing them to make use of like cogno-
mems towards the peace democracy" and
thus ''stir up strife. dc. Our opinion,
unaskcd, is, that the Journal man is en-
gagged in the work of .straining at a onat,'
and the disappearance of the camel down
his capacious NAV may be looked for as
u necessary consequence. We are in
favor of calling things by their right
names. and it savors of extreme sensitive
ness to object to the use of such sig
niticant terms as ..heIIish rebellion
.'damnable treason and ..infernal reb-
els in speaking of secession and those
engaged in the work of destroying the
government. That's so.
