'The Rev. Mr.. TObey,

ES-Wo have deferred noticing tn.
nomination of this reverned gentleman b,
the Radical Convention, under the convic.
tion that through respect and affection
for his Son. who had been previously NOM
mated by the Conservatives, he would
promptly decline in his favor, or at least
that he..would be unwilling to be made the
immediate instrument to thwart the nstu
raj and honorable aspirations of Son who
had just entered upon the theatre of life,
and whose position was peculiarly calcu-
lated to invite the support and sympathy
of all true friends, much more those of hi,
parent. But VIC are mistaken, and are
panied to find that the sorlid desire of
ofngc, the rancor of party, and the NAL
ice and vindictivencss of fanaticism are
so strong in the Reverned gcntlcman's
pioas bosom. that he is even willing, in
ordcrito CRAFTY those unhcly passions to
sacrifice the Son of his own loins. We
are not aware that such another unn atu-
raj case has ever occurred in this county
What more becoming and natural than for
father to exult in the nomination
and success of his son? 1t matters not
how far they msy differ in epinion--or how
far it may be the duty of the one to oppose
the other upon principle. still there is in
the breast of every parent, who knows
what flial affection anl ex,ltsd senti-
ment is, secret and becoming feeling of
pride and exultation at the Success and
triumph of a son, even though it be in
the cause of error, provided his honor re-
mains untarnished.
But not so with the Rev. Mr.. Tobey.
lie comes forward the willing instrument
to be used, especially to defeat the honor
able aspiration of his own son. Had the
son Dot been nominated who ever would
have dreamed of the father as a candidate?
While his present friends may. in the
moment Of party passion and excitement,
exult in the prospect of success which the
use ofhis name may furnish, yet hereafter.
when tho bascr and meaner passions shall
subsidc in their bosoms, and give place to
moro honorable aud loftier emotions, they
will as cordially dcspise the treacher-
Gus and unnatural conduct of this Rev
erncd politician. as do now all just and
high-toned men wherever found. .r,

fTIt is fashionable to speak Of the
Southern people az ..mar lerers, thieves
xnd robbers "
1t seems that every Federal soldier
who fell in battle was murdered" That
every "lsyalist" who hal to encounter the
fortunes ofthe war he was So eager for,
was robbed" That everything taken to
supply the Southern Army, wa, ''stolen. "
There is a curious simplicity in all this
Did any of these people. from whom the
cry of "murdorers" is ever arising, expect
that in going to war the killing was all to
be on one side! Were they. indeed, 80
simple as to believe that the people against
whom they wagsd war, were goin, to be
shot at and killed without an effort to pre-
serve themselves by attacking their assail-
ant?
Were they really so'profoundly ignorant
Of all history, as to suppose that a hostile
army in their midst would not draw its
supplies from the wealth and abundance
around it?
DID they really suppose th,t whom
Jackson routed Banks, that he was to do
SO without iringa gun; or, that the mil
lions of dollars Of stores, captured from
that ill-starrel General. were to remain
untouched, and the taking and carrying
them away was "thieving?'
When an army is in possession Of the
enemy's country, that enemy will inevits-
bly, be called on to supply its needs. and
whoever goes to war must bargain for that
contingency. '
When the too armies meet in battle
array, nothing is more certain than that
each will endeavor lin every possible,
way, to indict death on the othor, and
that blooi AMI death will follow.
The stupidity that could hounl on
war, and at the same time expect that all
its hazards and CASUALTIES should fall on
enc side only. may be ccnscientiou, when
it pronounccs the foe to DO 'tmurderers,"
because they kill;"robbers" and 'thiavcs''
because they capture and tako what falls
in their way. but then it is stupidity 50
low, SO groveling, that the hand Of reser-
rection can never reach it.
