tory Policy.
From the Richmond Whig Of Jan. 6th.l
Surely the Yankee nation is the most i'm
pudcnt nation that ever existed. No other
would venture to send emlssaries to q hostile
country, with the purpose announced in the
subjoined cxtrnct from the New York Tribune
relative to the Eumorcd mission Of the two
Biaifs.
[Hcre fallows the editorial Of the New York
Tribune 1elatiyc 10 the Blair mission, Of jam.
afy2, 1eG5.
The mission, It appears, would Euccecd bet
ter II directed TO Raleigh instead OF Rich
mond. Yet the Confederate Government re-
sides at Richmond. The President, who
alone, with tho advice and consent Of the
Senate, is competent to act, Is here, and the
Senate l. here. The mission, therefore, is
not for a settlement Of terms by the only par.
lies WHO can settle them. Its great object is
to break up the Confederacy by alternating
the States separately, else why go to Ra-
leigh: In other words, the Blalrs are spies,
and come here ayowedly to SOW tisscnsion.
We wish they would 90 to Raleigh. They
both richly deserve hanging, and it they viii
60 there upon such mlssiun as that, with
out first obtaining consent ofthc military au-
thorities, which they never can obtain, they
Will get what they richly deserve 10 d certain-

absolutely delightful. They tell ali whom It
may concern beforehand, the Prcsidentamong
them, that they are coming here to SOW dis.
senslon among us and break up the Confed-
eracy II they can mud they seek permission
f.om the authorities to prosecute their mis-
sion! Was there ever any proposition 90 un-
blushingly Yankee?
The Southern people are to be undecelyed
By Blair. They are to be taught that subIu-
cation and dominion over them, and that de-

They arc coolly 10 tc asked TO disbrlieve the
evidence OF their own senses; !; and when
Grant tells the world that 'sc1ow cannot tty
over the valley without carrying Its own m
tions, " be meant merely TO petpetrate one Of
those grim jokes in which Yankeedom SO
much deli:h1e-tlat when Sheridan says he
has burned 5, 600 firms in the valley he is de-
ceIring the Government. When Sherman cut
q road sixty miles long through Georgia,
burning, numbering aud plunderfny rs 1e
goes, he is merely letting Of little extra
gus.
Tho Yankees do not mean spo!iation, the
kind, atfectionatc Yankees, who ure so anxious
to bling us to our duty that they murder US
BY The score wherever they pass through our
country, mean none Of these things. Whut
they do mean Is an abolition crusade. Permit
them to set free all the negroes, let them
strike dead their thousand millions Of pro-
pcrty in the South, and tlcy will be satisfied.
The Tribune confesses thai the object Of the
mission is not to obtain peace, but political
advantage. It saw the fatal effects of the
