THE NEW REBELLION.

THE NEW REBELLION.
The Gazette ridicules the idea that
there is any blood in all the threats of
the Southern press and speakers, and
would have us believe that these intem-
perate utterances are mere gasconade,
intended, perhaps, to influence she cleo
tion by soaring the people of the North
into a support OF the candidates of the
Confederacy. Being better acquainted
with the chivalrous Dragging of the lord
iy SouthrOn than ourselves, the Gazette
certainly ought TO be able to interpret
Alright the mutterings of rebellion that
are constantly reaching us; but we very
much fear that in it's attempt TO laugh
away the threats of the South. il allows
its desires to influence its Judgment
In common with the greater portion of
the Northern press and prominent repre-
sentatives of journalism at the Sguth, it
knows that the threatening language of
the fre-eating Democracy is daily in
creasing the majority by which Sey-
mour and Blair will be defeated, and,
therefore, attempts 20 gloss over the
talk of second war with the varnish
of ridicule. Bat Blair refuses to mod.
ify the tone of his inhammatory speech~
es, Notwithstanding he has been entreat-
ed to do so by those who put iiim in
nomination, and men of the Wade
Hampton type refuse to temper their
remarks despite the advice of the Rich
mond Wig. that they should be wary
and circumspect" and the statement of
the Charleston Mercury, that "the inn
prudent expressions that have escaped
some of the Southern speakers since the
adjournment of the National Democrat
ic Convention" are causing great injury
to accrue to the cause. We could pub
lish column after column of extracts
from Southern papers and speeches, in
which a second rebellion is threatened.
We have given dozens of these extracts
already, only two of which the Gazette
has attempted to disprove, the one by
reference to one of those very papers of
the South, which deprecates and strives
to smother and tone down the intem-
perate speeches of the Democratic rebels;
and the other by a reference to incom-
plete files of the paper from which il
was taken. We do not wish to believe
there will be a second rebellion; on the
contrary. we hope that such measures
will be taken by the government as will
prevent it, still the fact that such a ca
lamity is threatened remains. In proof
of this we append few extracts from
Southern authorities:
''There is no obligation resting on the citi-
zens to obey every law that the legislature
of a republic or free State may pass any more
than every enactment of n parliament or EN-
peror."-[ Memphis Appeal
General Blair at the head of the militia
will be a match for General Grant at the head
of the regular army.''-lGen. 7. Ewing, Jr.
$50 on, boys; swear to murder Northern
Huns Arm yourselves and organize, and be
ready to respond promptly when called on,
and fight bravely even if you get killed 2"

ssWith the skull and cross-bones of the
lost cause before Us, we will swear that
this Is white mans government. We must
make the negro understand we are the men
we were when we held him in abject bondage,
and make him feel that when forbearance
ceases to be n virtue, he has aroused a power
that win control him OF destroy him. ~ Me-
ridian (Miss.) Mercury.
"The white men of the Southern States
have seen TIE day when they could use the
bullet, and IL God in his anger permit the
necessity to arise, they win use it again."
Richmond Enquirer.
I'VE know there are mnny Democr ats at
the North, including some distinguished
soldiers, who believe that the political atmos-
phere, poisoned by the long reign of Radical
despotism, will not be so purified that liberty
may hourish on it, until just chastisement
u inflicted upon the daring men who have
conspired against the freedom of the nation.
In other words, that the counter revolution
will not be complets without more blood-let-
ting. - Mobile Register.
