<~~~ HE BRIDGEPORT FARMER. ow, Sue, this isn't fair. Yq9re fight than any ot to grum6is.' ..5.'e see, just now' Brick lfia not grumbllng wis excepted: for that ss South are descendants of the ut say. Sishcd patriots of 1776 North as we'll as .F~,6uth and largely mbued with the spirit of their fathers sons sons 5 9f S RStri3 initiate her ex ample in denouncing and resisting tho unlawful and unconstitutional measures with which the Congress which calls itself Republican," has dertaken to oppress and overwhelm them. So long as these devish measures are persisted in, there can be no peace-except the peace of the sword and bayonet, of powder and bullet. Let "the Congress which calls itself Republican," continue its system of warfare upon this people, It will be resisted, as it has been, and not long hence be Oyerthrown by the overwhelming voice and votes Of the people.
 The English officer who, sometime since published in Blackwood description of tour in the Confederate States ending with an account of Gettysburg, spoke of certain organizations ill the Rebel army which were noted as s'good yeUing regi ments," To some such body the editors of the Bridgeport Fdrmer seem to belong. As specimens of screaming" Democracy, they are second to Brick Pom eroy alone.

By committing hundreds of murders. bv sun- pressing political assemblies by forcino tho malorites Tn large cities and in whole states to abstain from voting, the South has made ga desperate effort to revive tbe passions of the late war;" and We admit that ito a certain extent it has been success- fulw
 The Register mildly censures the Conven- ton for not having put little more Blair and little less Seymour into their pro- ceedings:
