MARIETTA,.GEORGIA. • MONDAY, APRIL 14, 1861. President Davis. The following deserved tribute to the patri otsstatesman, President Davis,says the Augusta Republic, we clip from the Bangor (Me,) Uim ion, of the 3d inst. The Union is a high-toned journal, scrupulous in its adherence to facts calm in its judgment, and fearless and un flinching in its advocacy of truth and right.— It merits the countenance and support of eve ry Southern man, for its bold and manly vin dication of the South, in the course she has pur sued : , President Davis. —The Whig of yesterday endorses the suggestion that the Trustees of Bovvdoin College should expunge ftom their records the official vote by which the honorary degree of LL. I), was confined upon lion Jef ferson Davis. And the Whig thus adds “ A traitor to his country should not remain thus honored by a Northern College.” t No language can express the loathig that every brave and honorable man must feel for those contemptible and sneaking cowards who could for a moment entertain or recommend such an idea as that contained in the Whig,— This recommendation is of a perfect pieie with Black Republican warfare. That man whom they cannot meet in argument, they seek to bring urdcr the ban of the religious and lit erary community. What more dastardly act than to creep within the sacred precincts of a College to stab the character of a man whose character is unblemished before the world. Jefferson Davis a traitor ! Where is the man in the Union who has dared to s?y this in his presence ? No brave man could say ; no coward dared to say it. What statesman in the whole history of America has lived a pur er or more upright lie than he ? Apply to the survivors of Buena Vista, and ask them if Jef ferson Davis is a traitor ? Nobly and glorious jy did he and bis command peril their lives on that bloody field, and by valor unequalled in the history of hard-fought fights, save a wea-. ried army from destruction. “No! No!” would be their unanimous response, '‘Jefferson Davis is no traitor His long Senatorial career in Washington was one ot unceasing attachment to the Union and unswerving devotion to the Constitution. When assaults were niadc upon them by an unscrupulous political party, manfully did he stand up in the r defence. Bravely did he fight fwr both so lung as there was A ray of hope left. And it is because he would notre main to see them trampled upon in the dust, dishonored and disgraced, that the V big, at a safe distance, calls him traitor, and asks that his name be branded with infamy. If Geore Washington deserves from Ameri cans the name of traitor, then does Jefferson Davis. Bowdoin College never more justly bestowed a degree than that conferred upon him ; and it will be a long day before her Trus tees will become so bigoted, as to strike from their roll the brigthest name upon it. Ten T housand People Oct of EnPlotkent. Just think of it ’ TtMi thousand people in Newark, New Jersey, are out of employment! “Many of these,” says the Express, “have been living, in good part, upon charity, all vyin tci'i but ritill living on in hopes that when the -Ith of March came, the Administration, would discover ‘a policy,’ which would restore confi dence and credit, thaw out the frozen channels of business, and enable them once mure tv earn bread for themselves and families, lloj e deferred, however, is making the heart sick. — The expectations of relief, from the Lincoln Administration have not been realized, ine prospect of the great manufacturing interests, with which they are connected, are unpromis ing, more than ever. Hence, they are now beginning to enquire, how long is this state ol things to last? and to manifest an unmistaka ble disposition, if Republicanism is resolved that the rupture of lhe Union, resulting from its sectional organization, is to be permanent, the Broad Seal State will cut loose from that ‘ism,’ as frdm a pestilence.” If such be the melancholy position of these people now, what will it be if Lincoln involves us in war, and closes the door to all emplyyment.— N. Y. Dau Boole Front the Richmond Enquirer. ‘‘They Will Soon Com? So say the Abolitionists.cf the North and the Submissionists of the South, in speaking of the seceding States. Does any considerate man, of either section, really think so? Can any intelligent individual, with the light now before him, believe in the possibility of the early return or even the finial rßtu.ni, cf tho “Confederate States of the South” to tho Union controlled by the abolition power of the North? gurely .not. Those.StPt.es withdrew from the Union upon grounds which amply justified them, in the opinion of a candid world. Their Government is in succcessful operation, and its permanent establishment is conceded as a fixed fact by foes at? w,ell as friends. It is daily gaining strength and influ'< ence, and bids fair to become, at an early day, the great power t of America. The notion, therefore, that the Southern Confederacy will soon come to an end, is ridiculous in the treme. The man who expects to witness the return of South Carolina Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Florida, Mississippi and Texas, or Knyopc oft|ien3j to tHe. governriient., of New England, must be nearly related to the Egyptian traveller who waited on the banks of the Nile for all the water to pass by thathe might walk over to the other side without wetting his feet. The Idea that a stream so rapid as the Nile must soon discharge all its wattrs is about as sensible and as. philosophic Us any which can be advanced in support of the probability of the early death of the Southern Codlederacy.— tike the famed river of Egypt, the Southern 'Confederacy has a pure never failing source, and is destined in its course to irrigate for the most useful purposes, political, social commer cial and moral, a vast land. And it we cannot hope that it has as long a time W run as the charter of nature givet tc the river of Rgypt, we may yet reasonably expect, that founded a£ it is, upon the eternal pr nciplcs of right and justice and strengthened and sustained by an unfaltering trust in Divine Providence, the Southern Confederacy a$ tublished in, 1861, will long live. M e may even hope that, in duration, it will exceed the pryamids, which; after the lapse of more than forty still stand erect and unshaken above the floods of the Nile. The Episcopal Church and the National Troubles.--The New York Church Journa] states that there will be no schismatical divison of the Episcopal Church in consequence of the separation of the Confederacy. In the organ ization of that Church each State composes a Diocese; and each Diocese like each State, is sovereign aud independent. Iheir national organisation resembles the Federal organization, and consequently, according to the Journal, not only will the effects of State secession upon the diocesan relations of the Church in the seceded States be at once recognized, but whero as in the case of the Bishopric of Alabama, the concurrence of the National Episcopate may be neccessary to fill a vacancy, the promptest measures will be taken by the Northern Bish ops to give the requisite sanction to the elec tions in Alabama, and to every other act nec cessary for the entire independence cf fill the dioceses in the seceded States. This is perfect harmony with the noble attitude of the Episco pal Church in the North from the beginning, which has always and every where set its face as a flint against abolitionism and every other ism, and which is composed of clergy and laity which would have done honor to any age and any nation of the Christian Church. Deserters to the South. —It is stated that twenty of the rank and file of the army left Washington on Thursday last for Montgom ery, for the purpose of enlisting in the South ern army. These desertions make an aggre. gate of two hundred and eighty army recruits for the Southern Government from the Tcder al capital since they have been stationed there by General Scott. — -Sar. News. New Orleans, April 10—We have receiv ed Galveston dates to the 9th inst. It was I reported that the Federal troops (hat were . left in Texas design concentrating at some given point. The Star of the West and Empire city are still off Indianola. The Mexicans at Mat* tarnoras have planted cannon pointing to wards Brownsville. ... , ■ The Legislature passed a bill dividing the State into six Congressional Districts f also a bill to issue State bonds for half a million dol lars to be secured by special tax NO 10.
