g The truo typ. Of Southern courage and
preference Of death to oppression, IS found in
Jackson, OF Alexandra, who teok the life of
Col. Ellsworth, and whom all good people will
admire and pity in all ages, when the present
passions OF the war have subsiled.
Booth portrays the rather French type OF
fanatcal deeds, under hgh-wrought drlusion-
whom some may now admire, but none will
when the present passions Of the war have sub
sided. He was mi led by morbid ambition for
distraction. No sensitlc person could haY- ad-
