Can it be that the nations of the earth
have their periods of madness--after the
fashion of the canine race-during which
love and all the nobler attributes OF man :
nature are ignored and seemingly despisGd?
looking back ouer the record of the past
few years it cannot fail to impress our peo-
pie, bewildered as they are in the whirl Of
excitement and the rush of events, that
sentiment or at least an action, Of ferocity,
brutal recklessness and ylnuicltiveness, has
been gradually developed by the progress of
hostilities, and that the war is fast assuming
the characteristics Of a ruH9ettd, or of an
dnOk, in which to kill, for the sake of Kill
ling, is the extent, and i'll which the wanton
destruction of property is assumed to be
among the privileges and virtues of a con-
dition of antagonism. 1t is now a common
circumstance TO read, as matter of almost
daily news, brief, matter-of-fac statement
of prisoners Northern and Southern, being
shot down in squads, in cold blood, and in
pursuance of a system Of retaliation; of
hotels, theaters. towns and cities being fired,
regardless of property, or ofthe lives of in
nocent children and gray-headed grand-par-
ents. Is this civilized warfare ? Can
any war be considered as civilized ? Is it Il
way to renew the bonds of fellowship and
traternal concord Does it not plainly be-
speak madness more venomous, more vir-
ulent, than the hydrophobia Of the poor
brute creation during the Summer. solstice
Come with us down to the banks Of the
James, the Appomattox, the Tennessee,
the Mississippi the Cumberland, the Sa,
vannah, and what do you behold? Is il
the hospitable "tent" of the patriarch, af-
| fording food and shelter for the hungry and
trave-worn pilgrim ? Nay it is the en-
campment of hostile hosts, with cleaning
swords and weapons Of destruction. Come
with US to the outlet of the the Cape Fear,
the Cooper, the alabama; to the bays,
sounds and inlets along our entire sea coasts
| from the Potomac to the Rio Grande, and
what meets your vision? Is it the well-la-
den, peaceful merchantmen, with its snow
white canvass wide spread TO the prosper
Gus breeze +? Nay, but the iron mailed

death
Instead Of beating our swords into plow
shares and our spears into pruning hooks
this order has been reversodr Instead o
| forgiving, as we hope of Heaven to be for
given, are we not, as nation, defying the
justice of Jehovah ?
We ul2an not TO censure any party or any
section We mean not to enter the areni
of politics. The madness is net political
not local; not sectional, and hence W., lee

THE SLOGAN OF WAR.
BY FLOY.

"Oh, dinnn We hear the slogan ~
1t sounds DER hills and dalcS,
Along our Northern border,
Among the Southern wales.
Its hostile notes are floating
Upon every morning breeze. .
From vale, and plain, and mountain,
From inland lakes and seas.
But it comes not from the stranger
That sound of dread ana fear
In his strength of pride and anger,
And sword and hattle-spcar.
No our free air floats no banners
OF Tyrant, Car or King,
Nor bears the clunk of fetters
Upon its ambient wing;
But the notes OF martial clangor
AS they fall upon the ear,
Are fr ught with far more danger,
And shakeour souls with fear,
For its clarion voice is ringing
Der many an ensanguined plain,
Where brothers blood is mingling
Like autumn's falling rain
And, in the charge of serried columns,
Mid the crash of shot and shell
AS meet the opposing spuadrons
OF carnival and hCll,-
Sire and son are falling,
As fall the crimson leaves,
And the reaper, Death, Is cleaning,
a Held of crimson shcavCs.
"Oh, dinna ye hear the slogan
AS il swells upon the breeze,
From vale, and plain, and mountain,
From inland lakes and seas,
EvolSing into action.
Bv some facinating spell,
Every vile malignant passion,
That crSt was chained in hell.

Bid its hOrrid discOr1 cease
Aud allay those frCnZied passions

Shall no more engage in strife;
And our Union, rent aSundcr,
Shall be born anew to life.
