| From the Daily Evening Star, Austin
Texas.]
There is paper published In San
Antonio called the E.ctress, which adj
vocates the election of the Pease tick
ct, and, as matter of course, indors-
es the Rump Congress.
That paper can talk to its own kith
and kin and go unrebuked, but when
it so far forgets its province, as to en-
deavOr to fatter Confederate SOL
dlers into support of its miserable
dogmas, it will meet, at their hands,
that rebuke which its satanic coadju-
tor once received, when he presumed
upon the long suffering of his master
to tempt him.
We are an ex Confederate soldier,
and loved the Confederacy that is now
mum bered with the things that were.
AT the same time we nate, with holy
horror, those who, with a pharisaical
love Of the Union, had not the manly
boldness to stand up boldly for either
section.
They have now assumed different
attitude, and endeavor, under the
cover of Unionism, to bring our coun-
try under the rule of the miserable
heH-hounds that disgrace power at the
National Capitol. We can say to him
and his clan, that we hate them now
more than ever.
We, in common with every soldier |
who upheld the Southern Cross, yield |
cordial obedience to the laws of the |
aoh0te country, and earnestly desire to
see a restoration of the civil govern
ment.

able scoundrel who publicly rejoiced over

Commercial.
The Commercial has our thanks for
its compliments 1t tells some truths,
viz: We are editor of the La Crosse
DemocrGt-we reioiced that Lincoln
was called hOme-we said johnson
was statesman more than low wit,
etc.-we wrote a letter to Bill Arp, so
called, and we look to a pleasant re
union with the South at some time
but never under Abolition rule. But
we were never owned by slave
driver, not bit more than we have
been awed or silenced by the minions
of tyranny-than we have been driven
from our position by the hirelings of
power, the libels of Abolition editors,
the ropes, bayonets or prisons threat
ened, or the brides of the late admin
istration.
We did thank God for calling Lin I
coin home. If Lincoln is'in Heaven,
as Abolitienists say, he is better off I
than he was at Washington, beset by /
thieves, Abolitionists, army contract
ors, oficB seekers and Gaping listen
ers to his smutty jokes. As friend /
of Lincoln we thanked God for call 7
ing so great and good man home,
before he should become disguised
with the Annas, the james, the Thad
deuses, the Benjamins, the Charleses,
the Freds, and others of the leaders
of the God and Morality party.
We thanked God for calling Lincoln
into the presence and company of !
Democrats, as he is if in heaven. The |
poor President suffered enough from
being with abolitionists on earth, and
we thanked God for calling him be-
yond their reach or influence here or
hereafter
Whatever is, is right. Cop, who
rules us all, wanted Lincoln removed
He made Booth his agent-no one
but GoD is to blame for LincoIn's
death--God is never to blame-wc
who are Christians should thank Him
for everything do so thank Him
he who does not thank God is no
