If the people accept their own
pardon under the amnesty by the
the sacrifice Of their chiefs, and trust
ed comrades, and leaders, then indeed
are our misFortunes irrcmediable and
our dishonor unfathomable. When
q aNirginian can look in the face Of
Lee, or u Kentuckian in that Of
Breckenridge, Or Il South Carolinian
i'll that of Hampton, and can say to
himself, I regaine;l my rights by
deserting and denouncing yours, .
then in sooth is our degradation per
feet.

The YANKEE REVOLUTION. The
Charlottesville Chronicle is growing
despondcnt In late issue, it gives
expression to its reflections IN the
following language:
I'VE do not say much against the
Yankees now; we felt that anything
we could say was like Burke writing
against the French Revolution. All
his fine refections-his "Refactions
on the Revolution in France" his
Letter to Il Noble Lord" his Let
ters on Regicide Peace did no
good. The revolution went on. We
have no right to suppose that, if
Burke couldn't stop the French Re
volution, the Miouicl,' cau stop the
Yankee revolution.
owe want to make one remark !:
The French Revolution although
devils We're the Instruments benefited
France. The present revolution will
ultimately benefit the South. But
couldn't our Northern Robesr :erres
leave out the part OF the 9lcvils?'

THE SOUTHERN PEOPLE LAUDED BY
GREELEY. This reason for such re-
lection that the North may but we
can't prescribe our late leaders has q
manly aspect that appeals to every
generous mind. But whether you
agree in this view or not, the fact
remains. There are fourteen States
that will not ratify the amendment, t,
and it can only be carried over their
heads by ignoring them in the count,
ond assuming that three-fourths of
the States at present represented in
Congress will suffice to ratify That
assumption, however, will certainly
he controvcrted in the Supreme
Court, and probably over-ruled.
After our recent experience, this is q
rock to be avoided.
It is therefore plain that Congress
must and will undertake the work OF
recognizing the States now unrep-
resented in either House.

FooD REFUSED TO A STARVING YAM
KEE SOLDIER. A returned soldier, :.
former member OF the Sixth NIassa-
chusctts Regiment. who gave his
name as John G.. Williams. fell down
in the streets Of Pittsfield, Wednes-
day, from exhaustion, resulting from
starvation. After his rcsuscitation,
which, FOR q time, seemed doubtful,
he stated that he had been four days
without food, and his appearance in
Gicuted the truth Of his statement.
He started from Columbus, Ohio, for
his home in Boston, was delayed on
the route by the snow, and tried to
save money to continue his journey,
but on arriving ut Albany, had barely
enough left to get to Pittsfeld. He
said he twice asked for food during
the four days, and being refused,
would not ask again, prefcrring to
starve rather than beg. He was as
sisted by the town authorities, and
Thursday sent on his way home

WILL THE PEOPLE SUBMIT TO IT?-

WILL THE PEOPLE SUBMIT TO IT?-
The proposition introduced in the
House of Repres sentatives to impeach
the President meets with no respon-
sive echo in the hearts cf the people.
On the contrary, nothing but con-
.demnation of the infamous measure
has yet been manifested eitl er by the
masses or the press of the country.
Even the most extreme of the radical
Journals deprecate the movement as
wild, inpracticable, and only calcu-
lated to beneft3 and strengthen the
President, and to ultimate in damage
and injury to the Republican party.
Indeed, we have yet to meet with the
first paper of standing or influence
with any party that has ventured to
commend the step, or to speak of it
in terms at all favorable. Referring
to this subject, the Constitutional
Union, Published at Washington city,
says:
''ft is monstrous, however, that 4
man like Andrew Johnson, who has
had no ambition in life but to serve
his country, who has devoted himself
zealously and self-sacrificingly to her
best interests, should be SO assailed
by men who are traitors to the Con-
stitution, and who have declared
officially that if the Claw stands in
the way of their schemes, $50 much
the worse for that law" We tell
them that the country is tired of this
thing. The people aoW not permit The
impeachment Of President Johnson.
And if radicalism does not come to
its senses soon, the people of the
country will take the matter in their
own hands, and abolish radicalism.
We speak whereof we know"
