A correspondent Of the Pioneer-Press

calls himself 'moderatus" = which
means in English "a moderate cuss,
spends third of a column of bad Eng
lish and worse rhetoric in deEouning our
humble self. He ascribes us ''baseness,
"depravity," ''insolence;" he describes
us as prostitute, a CLOWN a "nero,
a Judas and an Arnold" What he
would call us if he was not moderate
cuss, we leave our readers to imagine
As it is we are presented in such com
pick and complicated character that we

And a boatswain tight, and midshipmite,
And the crew of the Captain gig.

THE TRUE DOCTRINE.

There is a hearty glow of patriotism in this
paragraph from the Memphis Appeal which is
extremely pleasant:
Democrats we are, and Tennesseans, and full
OF love for our thrice blessed south land: but
over all there laps the claim of Union, with
its great achievements and its greater destiny.
God bless the flag, add God bless the Union,
and He may strengthen all hearts, both north
and south, to labor for an everlasting peace
between the States.
That is the true doctrine and the true
spirit. God bless every man that
breaches it, And may every wretch
that seeks to rise by planting hatred in
the hearts Of fellow citizens of a com
mon country perish amid all the calanni-
ties which God can infiict on the basest
OF men.
We must have a nation as grand in
its moral as its material features held
together not by force OF law but BY force
OF love. The soil on which love
flourishes isjustice
Let US make our flag so truly the rep
resentative OF fair-play, generosity, and
brotherly love that if any foreign foe
assails it the men of the south will
spring TO arms to defend it readily as
the men of the north.

The fact is that it not only takes all the an

the 800, 900, 600 or OF, 900, 900 that we borrow
obligations, and the foreign vessels that bring
the Commodities we buy from Europe. Now,
the proposition to keep either the gold or the
silver in this country is only the old problem
OF how to "keep our cake and yet to eat it. y

That is so but if in the meantime the
process of contraction bankrupts the

poorer and the rich richer, develops a
magnificent aristocracy, are we not pre-
