The Day We Celebrate.
REBEL VIEW OF TO-DAYs CELEBRATION OF OUR
VICTORIES.
from the Richmond Wing, March IL
The zth day Of March will be grand day In Yankee
land Nothing like what will then be has be-
fore been witnessed this continent on any other
There will be infinite bellringngs, unlimited fireworks
unrestraned rhetoric, immeasurable professions And
why9 Wherefore is the free American air TO be vexed
with all this hubbuba Because simply on that day Lin
coin will be naugurated President of the United
to celebrate with all the wild enthusiasm for
the federal arms, the capture Of Och Charleston and
Wilmington the march Of Sherman through South
Carolina, and the anticipated suppression Of the great
rebellion" 1t is in this manner that the Yankees have
resolved to celebrate the ante ne obsequies of the
conederacy for fear perhaps that they may not have
another chance and that the accursed thing may
again into life and vgor from condition which they
have determined to be morbund at least. II will be
interesting to read the reports Of the dongs and espe
ciay of the sayings this extraordinary occasion All
the great Yankee orators WILL quesoness harangue the
expectant crowds, describing In pathetic terms the
miserable situation OF the South, and painting glowing
pictures OF the prosperity and power Of the conquerng
North.
Seward will be seized with another at of fatdical fury
and will prophesy even he never prophesied before,
exceing all his matchmaking predecessors bodness OF
pre1gurement He WILL for the twentieth time declare
that the war 10 approaching Its close thatthe armies Of
the Union engaged in series Of operations which
must speedy triumph; that the OF the
bellon is confined to the limits Of single State,
Grant In the paror Of the Spottswood Hotel He will
then congratulate his hearers on the wonderful power
and resources Of the Yankee naton congratulate them
'n the renauguration OF Lincoln congratulate them on
The sound threshng which they going 10 administer
England and France and all the rest OF the mpuden
world, this little affair with the South Is
But eEat seward ssa liz rest Of them should Os
nisaken9 What IL they sholld expend their rejocings
der their prophecies to be perpeuay Deferred
What Il the confederacy, after all should refuse 70 die
and reject the obseques got up at SO much trouble and
Like Molieres DOCTOR who insisted that the patient
dead because rule required him to die Seward will declare
the confederacy defunct BECAUSE his theories the
cannot possibly be alive. II makes no
kind OF difference to him that he has been making
the same kind Of declarations at any time during
The last three years; that he has proved by IRE
Iragibc logic that the confederacy was bound 70
expire when Fort Donelson was taken; that she could
not live another month when vcksburg was captured
hat she at the last gasp when Atlanta fell and that
n spite OF ALL she displayed sufficient yigor TO defeat
la dozen Yankee armies, and bring humiliation on half
dozen first class Yankee generals. SO IL would make
difference should turn out that Sherman fail in his
present enterprise and that instead Of mecn Grant In
he Spotswood Hotel he be turned back his path and
m nd ref bv
that he be overaken by defeat disastrous TO all the
cherished Yankee hopes Of triumph and conquest But
he Northern papers exhibit already symptoms
at the aspect OF the situation They rejoice exceed
ngy over Shermans march TO Columbia; but they would
rory much like to hear something more from him.
