saeaga. and of course deprived Il aliks
es intsresi and valae. As Ia mas ssidehs-
ly wrisssa IL sisx cf the ssAeaasisa sf
Rishsaead, and sas soasse OF subseqasss
events, We are jasliaed IL rspssdasiag
the arsleia in lis cnsiresy:
awe are very hopeful of the campaign
which b opening, and srass that We are
to FeHp large advhntage froaa the ops-
rasioas eyIdehtly near at hand. Bat our
people Should sleariy comprehend that
whatever The temporary result. and thro'
misfortune beyond shat it seems In tue
bounds Of possibility should befal as, oar
indepaHdeuee will still be beyound the
power OF our enemies to prevent il.
The riess which we copy from The
London Times TO-DAY, express sound
judgment as to onf ahility, even ct the
very time when thay might suppose that
We were eer qaered. We have only to
resolve that we shall never be taken. Our
coaatfy is too large 10 be held. Our en-
esBses could never afford to maintain the
armies necessary for hostile occupation.
Nothing could exceed the longing they
weuid feel for 3 settlement which would
ea&els them TO return to q peace essah
iishment. Nothing could exceed the ne
cessity which would therefore impel theTa.
The proof and tbs illustrations are seen
ia their anxiety to bring the war to a
speedy close. Thsy knos that their deb.
Is already intolerahle, and far beyond
their power Of eonGseation TO discharge
IL.
The difficulty Ct raising troops has be-
come great that only the most ruinoas
boansies wfli seeare the most iadIfeF-
ent OF recruits. But Tor the hope that
they will saon succeed they would this
day break down. As for ourselves, moth
Jog could eqnal is its bcsor The dreadfal
caianlEy of Yankee dominasiou in our
land. Awful as have been the four years
OF eonaict through which we have paased,
they hare been four years Of j'y, eompar-
able with what they woald have beer with
the heel OF Lincola on our necks.
They have been years for which, amid
ali our sorrows, we shoald devout,y thank
God. Better for Us state Of war foray-
or, than Unioa with the Yankees on any
taTms 9 thousand tisass better than their
dasainaiisH ever as.
We would, therefore, hare to Fefnss TO
sRrps@asss 10 Faa aae EssySsld tha st#sFgass
afss we should soon weary cur enemies
into terms. When they fondly supposed
their undertaking vas at au end, they
would 6nd, TO their dismay, thai their
troubles bad bat begun.
II we can vffeeet our safety 10 no other
say, we can effect il by running them,
and 1t will be iu our poser TO ruin them
by refusing to surrender our cause. A
town may be captured, county may be
overFun, and 30 long as il is occupied the
Inhabitants mast yield such obcdience to
the eaptors as The Laws of war require,
rot by tsking An unlawful oath of aIlegi-
aSce, but by the military neutrality which
may be exaeted OF citizens 10 their situa-
ton. Bat il s1me towns and eoassies are
held, Others will be free; and to capsuFs
q second frss must be liberated ard
veil discharged OF its temporary and
constrained neutrality. Al army twice
as largo rs Lincoln has would DOT auf-
Zee to bold a eoaatry az extensive as ours,
with population implacably hoatils as
ours would be, aad determined 10 be free.
Les 1t be scsu ssmaeyssood that this Is
our resolve Whatever fortune may tempo

whelming force; bat il weuid be an in :

force but II would be To lie without re-

We must taka . yow as sacred as Hasn't
hal's and we must require istof our chill

and the domination of ths Tankees. while
there 10 breath 10 our bodies. Thus re-
solved, even in the most. adverse present
fortunes could dot rob ds OF the prixs for
which we eentaHd. The struggle might
