gau, say, the raj CA IN tsses should
be made TO understand that there is a
very large majority of the fighting
men of the country who mean to pre-
serve the Union and maintain the
Constitution. 1t has also these
threats:
1--WE, the Democratic party of the United
States of America. mean to keep the Radi-
Gals from running the country, peaceably
if we can; forcibly if we must. This is no
time TO m:nce words; we are on the eve of q
Tremendous epoch. The Republic must
live; the Union must be, preserved; the
Constitution must remain intact Ii all
other mea S fail, there lsalwayS an appeal
to the God OF battles, and the last resort is
always open TO a free, and enlightened,
and a brave people to maintain and pre-
serve their conSti uti9nal ri@htsn Regard
ing the Convention. it says: THE move
ment is one of peculiar significance at this
time, and we hope our friends will enter
heartily into it. A Presidential election is
soon to come off, and there are tn rty-siX
States in this Union. Provision must be
made for counting the electoral votes of all
of them. A word to the wise is sufficient"
And so we have the fair warming,
given to the loyal people of the North,
that, unless the Southern States are
admitted upon the terms proposed by
themselves. which are no terms at all,
they may expect another war, with AN
DREW JOHNSON at the head of the Gov
eminent to lead it, and the Democratic
party to carryit On. We are sure this.
new programme will not be very
alarming to the victorious legions,
who lately marched in triumph
through the heart of the Southern
States, and put down the first Rebel
lion. The work of suHduing the
second Rebellion will be more speedy
and etfectual if 1t must needs be.

We are indebted to Hon. JOHN l.
MORRISON, State Treasurer. for a
copy of his Annual Report of the
State Finances. We have already
published the statistics embraced il
it, which are of public interest. The
Report is prepared with care. and is a
clear and Ineligible exhibit of the
financial condition of the State. Mr..
MORRISON retires from the Office in
February next, to give place to Gen,
KIMBALL, elected in October last;
and we cannot refrain from bearing
testimony to the able and satisfactory
manner in which he has con-
Quoted the responsible and intri-
cate affairs of his Department. Dur
ing his term of Office he has done
himself great credit, and the State
valuable and faithful service. He
bears with him to private life the con-

Alas! POcahOntas,

We referred to the January num-
Der of the North american ReUieU a
few days ago, giving table of its con-
tents. 1t is one of the best numbers
Of this our leading American period
icals. The article on DANIEL WEB
sTER is calling out much comment.
But the most noticeable is the article
on Captain JOHN SMITH, wherein the
the reviewer proves conclusively that
the story about PoCAHoNTAs saving
the life of SMITH is pure fiction, in
vented by the mendacious pen of that
ADVENTURE himself. We cannot oc-
cupy space in giving the proofsadduced
by the article to establish this posi-
ton, but refer our readers to the Re
uie.o, assuring them of much interest
in its perusal. .t .ra-or
Naturally enough the expose Of the
heroic romance of our early Ameri-j
can history is attracting considerable
criticism in the papers. The Colum-
bus (O) Journal facetiously says \
"The article is novel and ingenious re-
view of the history of Capt. John Smith
the Ohm Smith who is represented in those
sacred historical collections in use during
our younger days, as reclining in an easy
posture upon the bosom of young female
savage To speak more accurately--the
bosom reclines on him. The reviewer es-
says to uproot our faith in this picture,
with its sturdy Indian leaning on his
baffled club at one corner. 1t can't be done.
He might be able to prove that Shakes
peare never wrote Shakespeare, or. that
old Dobbn didn't lick the game-cock of
Smile, but when he attempts to convince
us that Pocahontas did not heroicaiIy rush
In between that upIifted club and Captain
John Smith, he is absurd"
The indianapolis Journal utters
deep wall over the destruction of this
Idol of our romance and Heroine of
our American history; from whom
the first of the f. f. VS. have traced
their lineage; the subject of the art
lists immortal work and the poets
song. So after reading the article in
the North american, the indignant
