Rebels


Our Northern brethren love TO call US
rebels. 1t is a pet word with them, and
they will use it wseneyer they have op-
portunity. Well, we have no objection to
it. On the contrary, we have learned to
love the word. and to glory in its applioa-
tiOn to our people. The Fathers of the Re
public were called Rebels and they never
blushed at its application. They learned
to glory IN the title. and gave dignity and
character to the little word which had been
intended as term of insult and reproach-
dignity and character which was aug
mented by the Irish rebellion of '6I. They
acre Rebels-those men of '76. They
would not submit tc the yoke of tyranny /;
so with a mighty effort they shook it eff,
and established for themselves and their
posterity, government of freedom and po-
litical equality. They acre Rebels, those
men of 90, who fought, like their Ameri
can prototypes. to cast of the bondage of
hated Government. But alas they failed,
and were consigned back to that bondage
Of which they so vainly essayed to rid them
selves. And shall we say it? These men
of '61-were they rebels Oh, yes they
were Rebels. n you please, against tyranny
and wrong. They strOve to cast off the
burden of oppression, and to establish
again that constitutional and free Govern
ment which their forefathers had founded
in the past. But they, too, vainly sIrove
against overwhelming numbers, and were
cong nquered-conquered by men who once
in the name of Rebel, aud thought REBEL
ion against tyranny no crime-conquered
by men who declared that the States were
sovereign, and the people had a right to
throw of an oppressive Government and
put on another of their own choice, that
call just Governments were derived from
the consent of the governed - by men, too,
who had sought to make Ireland and Hun
gary free by men who had been banished
from Germany and elsewhere because they
declared in favor of this great American
principle Of ofself-gOVernment. And so they
defeated us-ouf hopes and our efforts, but
they could net take away our principles
from us-they could not crush out our love
for cause so just and so holy as We es-
teemed ours to be-they could not, with
their bayonets and their swords, force US
to confess sorrow for our rebellion against
tyranny and oppression; and thus. taking
! nothing away from Us but our liberties and
property-they gave Us the appelIatiOn of
| Rebels.
Yes, we were Rebels then. We are Reb-
els now. We glory in the name; and our
posterity will glory too, in the glory Of their
fathers, who were not ashamed to proclaim
in the face of the world, that they we're
''Rebels' against Tyranny and Oppression.
The glory and honor did not perish with
our cause-they will not perish with our
generation ; but they viii live in the future
as they live in the present. to give addition
al lustre to that glory and honor which liv-
ed and shone iu the Rebel Of '76 and the
! Rebel of '98.-Banner ofthe South.

with new omnibus having ten wheels and
drawn by three horses. The inside of the
carriage is IA feet long, 5 feet wide aHd 61
high, and the whole is calculated to carry
sixteen passengers inside aud twenty out

Hervey, that three horses will move this
vehicle thus loaded with perfect ease, and
that it is in every respect superior to the
old fash ioned kind.

A New Reconstruction Bill Demanded.
From the Lebanon Clarion.l
We have to record this week a most fla.
grant instance Of the violation OF the rights
OF man, ard of that shocking Decentralization
and dIsloyalty of feeling prevalent 10 the
South which has given so much trouble to
the saints Of the tler-Stevens.BrownIow
| school. The breath Of disloyalty has so
| tainted the air that the beasts of the field
have caught the infection, and are exerting
themselves to render the lives of loyal citi-
zens insecure. Only few weeks ago We
were called upon to chronicle a most vio-
lent and unPSOvOked assault by fox on
two of our cOlored ciLizens, whose only
crimes were the color Of their skins aud
their devotion TO the Union and the con-
| gressionai plan Of reconstructios.
For some time past the racooous along
Cissell's river, in this county, have been
haImOniOusly and heartily cooperating
With the enterprising descendants Of Ham,
resident in the vicinity. in the work Of de-
pOpulating and laying waste ell the hen
roosts within reach. Having recently re-
ceived essential assistance from the ravages
OF chicken cholera, the allied powers have
swept everything before them, and done
their work so efectually that the Growing
Of chantioieer, it is said. is as seldom
heard in shat locality as was the whistle Of
locomotive dfty years ago. In fact,
Shanghai and Bantam. with all their kith
and kin. have utterly disappeared. and the
| places that once knew them will know them
no more forever. Whether there was suv
unfairness in the division Of the spoiIs We
are not prepared to say, bat it is certain
that the alliance ceased with the extermina-
tion of the common enemy.
A few nights ago one of the strongest
and bOldesG Of the cooDs entered the dwell
ing of free and loyal American of African
descent-too evidently With hostile intsn
tions. Fresh from the lodge Of the Kuklux
Klan. his appetite was whettsd keen for
blood. He found no one within save AZ in
fant slumbering peacefully in its cradle,
with a seraphic smile of innocence playing
upon It's dusky features. like the radience
Of the bow Of promise upon the face Of the
dark aud angry storm cloud. This pioturs
Of youth and JOY and innocence was lest
upon the coon. There twas no honor, no
relenting truth" Selling the little iuno-
cence by one its feet he tore it from its
sweet repOse and dragged it ruthlessly to-
ward the wood. Luckily the cries Of tho
infant brought assistance, and the abduotor
was forced to abandon his victim, after
dragging it some twenty or thirty yards
from the house. and seek safety in igno-
minious fight. After this, who will doubt
the necessity Of continuing the Freedmsn's

GOVERNOR CHAMBERLAIN having been
heartily commended by the press of Boston
may be regarded as fairly in the first rank of
American lyceum lecturers. The Advertiser,
speaking of the lecture before the Old Bay
State Society Thursday evening, says:
An immense audience was again assembled
in the Music Hall, and the gallant general and
prudent governor could not have many doubts
of the feeling of his listeners towards himself
personally, for cheer after cheer and round up
on round Of applause greeted his appearance
upon the platform. 1t was plain that great
deal was expected from the lecturer, whose
military and civic distinctions, added to honors
well won in the fields OF learning and litera-
ture, make his name eminent even upon list
OF very eminent speakers.
We cannot undertake to give report of the
lecture ITSELF tut of its merits it is easy as we'll
as pleasant to speak. Governor Chamberlain's
style both in oratory and composition certainly
come reasonably near to being unexception-
able. His voice is full, rich and sonorous; his
manner bright and interesting, and his gesture
free, graceful and impressive. His bearing sa-
vors neither OF affectation, vanity nor timidity,
but is manly, dignifed and self-possessed.
