.«IT IS NOW TOO LATE TO RETIRE
FROM THE CONTEST. THERE IS NO
RETREAT BUT IN CHAINS AND SLAVE
RY." Patrick Henry in the first Revolution.
Item* from Prentice.
Wc have before us Prentice’s Louisville Jour
nal of the 17th March, from which we cull the
following:
“Gen. Grant to be Si percedkd.—The intel
ligence is that the War Department has author
ized Gen. Halleck to supercede G» n. Grant—un
less he shall ask to be relieved—on account of
bad conduct at Fort Donelson and elsewhere.—
This will create very general and painful sur
prise, but we should not condemn the proceed
ing wlthont knowing the grounds of it.”
The Journal rejoices at the declaration of Rus
sell in the House ol Lords concerning the block
ade—that it was not simply a paper one but such
as England was bound to respect. Prentice says
“ this settles the question of recognizing the so-
called Southern Confederacy,” and he felicitates
himself amazingly.
Speaking of the trade of the U. 8. with Brazil^
he says:
f k “ The export of coffee to America has been
considerably reduced. Flour has been import
ed in Targe quantities. The supplies of pitch
pine, much used in Brazil for building, have en
tirely fallen off, owing to the blockade of the
Southern ports. For this reason it is expected
that the first cargoes arriving there will bring
pieces rarely equalled in that market.”
By such silly swelling words as the following,
he tries to keep up Yankee courage and prolong
their insane and wicked war upon the dearest
rights of man, and the chief corner-stone upon
which the temple of American liberty was
founded:
* The abandonment of Manassas and the whole
of the late powerful rebel line of defence on the
Potomac is regarded on all hands as one of tbe
most remarkable and important events of tbe
war. Throughout the whole South it has crea
ted surprise and consternation. In connection
with other recent occurrences, it has disheart
ened and demoralized tire rebel masses every
where. It is worse for their cause than a score
of overwhelming defeats in battle. It is an ev
idence of a consciousness of weakness on the
part of their leaders—an evidence that no one
can be so blind as not to see.V
Again:
“ Wherever we look, whether in Georgia, or
Flo Ida, or North Carolina, or Virginia, or Ten
nessee, or Missouri, or Arkansas, the rebellion
is manifestly straggling in the grasp of death.”
The Journal has a frightful editorial of over a
column in that immense sheet, warning tbe
State of Kentucky that the Confederates had
hatched a prolific proginy of death at Bowling
Green by the unheard-of amount of filth they
accumulated, and calls loudly upon the State for
some legislation to abate the nuisance before it
kills the Yankee army—asserting that over 6,0C0
of our army died and were buried at that place,
in consequence of their filth. Prentice never
was at a loss for a sensation. He always could,
with as much ease and readiness as Bennett,
manufacture a lie to get up a sensation.
The Lincoln Legislature (Lincoln submission)
adjourned on the 17th inst., to reassemble on the
24th November next. That body passed a bill
requiring all ministers of the Gospel to take the
oath of allegiance before they could solemnize
marriage. The Governor vetoed it, and they
failed to reconsider it; so it lies over till the next
meeting.
The following are specimens of Prentice’s wit:
Capt. Ericsson’s Monitor arrived at the mouth
of James River in the nick of time, and made
the rebels think that she was Old Nick himselfi
There comes up a fierce hissing from the South
like the hisses of myriads of adders. It is not
strange that the Union victories, falling like a
Niagara of cold water upon a million ofhot and
blazing fire-eat ere, should produce a terrible
hissing.
Perhaps the reason why all the rebel troops
are turning their backs on us is that they are
getting heartily ashamed to show their faces.
There isn’t much to do in Gen. Fremont’s De
partment. Perhaps ’tis well there isn’t.
They don’t take any of our “coils of rope”
down South now, but' we guess'they will soon
take a few coils of our anaconda.
The lollowing two items are of some interest:
TnE Oath of Allegiance at Bcenos Ayres.
The United States consul at Buenos Ayres, Wm.
Holley Hudson, has, by circular, inlormed the
masters of all American vessels that in future no
eleaiances will be granted until the master shall
take and subscribe the oath of allegiance. On
refusal to do so, such captain will be instantly
removed. Tne hoisting or raising of the rebel
flag on board any Ame. ican vessel in port will
be followed by the removal of the mas ter and the
return of the vessel to the United States.
. W We are Informed that the contractor is
in Kentucky, who will proceed immediately to
construct the military tailroad from Nicholas-
vilie to Danville, and from thence to Knoxville;
that he expects to complete the road to Danvillle
in sixty days, and the balance of the route in
“double quick.” It will be recollected that the
lower House of Congress repealed the law au
thorizing the President to construct the road,
but the Senate refused to concur.

A Chapter tor tbe Faint-Hearted, for
Croakers, and “ Stay - at - Homes’* to
Read.
ST a LiPY.
Pctnam Co., Ga., March 18, 1862.
Messrs. Editors:
Our late reverses have developed the char
acter of many persons, and among them
stands pre-eminent that of the chicken-hear
ted patriot. This specimen of the genus homo
may be known by their dismal croakings, and
there is danger of their melancholy, cowardly
forebodings being communicated to many
around them. With folded arms they arc
looking on in silent dismay at our disasters,
while ever and anon the words “we are ru
ined, wa are ruined,” bursts from their trem
ulous lips. Now the query often arises in
my mind, where did the race spring from ?
Surely not from our Revolutionary heroes,
who pledged their “ lives, their fortunes and
their sacred honor” in one just, great struggle
for independence. No; they were made of
sterner stuff, and a reverse only nerved them
to redoubled diligence and more determined
effort. The conviction then force? itself on
mind, that these croakers are the remains of
a race known in days of yore as— Tories and
I think it behooves every patriotic man and
woman to address themselves to the task of
administering a severe rebuke to all who
come under the charge here ascribed. One
bold, manly effort on their part would avert
the threatened danger, but they can’t stand
the expenditure of blood and money that such
a coarse would require. Others may breast
the storm; the widow's son, her sole stay, may
buckle ou his armor and go forth to grapple
with the^oe; the poor man whose daily wages
scarce afford a support to a young and help
less family, must forsake all and go forth to
meet the invader, while they and their sons
selfishly rest at home ia afcsa and indolence.
All honor to those^ho have bravely gone
forth to meet the cannon’s roar, while shame
and infamy rest ou those who basely stay at
home!
V e * * *
But I wish to enter my protest against the
terms womanish fears, old womanish feelings,
being applied to the indolent, self-indigent,
cowardly drones, who have no stomach for
the fight, but sit idly at home and foster a
spirit of murmuring and discontent. Quite a
reflection, I consider it, on a sex whose ener
gies have never relaxed, and whose efforts have
been untiring in the prosecution of tbe migh
ty work before us." Without pretending to be
Amazons, the assistance they have rendered
has been truly wonderful. With that zeal
which has ever characterized woman, th y
have evinced a determination which knows
no bounds. After the election of Lincoln—
when the Union was convulsed and the whole
South was agitated on the subject of secession
—when the Herculean efforts of Toombs, Ste
phens, Cobb, Hill, and a host of lesser stars
were arrsyed for and against the secession ef
Georgia, I happened in various portions of
the State, where the subject was fully dis
cussed, and where an ample opportunity was
afforded for testing not only the men, but the
women. And proud I am to say, that in all
my sojouinings, I did not meet a single sub.
mission woman; that is, one who was so at
heart. Many there were who on being told
by husband, father and brother it was best to
submit to anything rather than have the
"glorious old Union” dissolved, would fain
have believed them; but when left to the dic
tates of their judgments ’twas “give me lib
erty or give me death.”
And since the conmmencement of the
straggle, there is no labor that woman has
not been willing to perform, no sacrifice she
has not cheerfully made. From the rising of
the sun to the going down of same, the Thim
ble regiment has been on duty. Yea, often
when night draws its sable curtain, and tbe
darkness proclaims the hour of rest, the call
has been unheeded, and the busy fingers have
gone on in the work of preparation. With
Spartan firmness husbandB, brothers and sons
have been equipped aud sent- forth to repel the
invader. Occasionally we meet with an Union
man who, like Lot’s wife, is casting one long,
lingering look behind, but to woman’s praise
be it spoken, we present an unbroken column,
with not a straggler left Tories there are
amongst us—I Bay it “ more in sorrow than in
anger”—but thank God, as far as I know, no
such infamy sullies woman’s name. Then
east not a reflection on the sex by bestowing
any appellation that properly belong to wo
man on cowardly man. Call them craven-
hearted, but not woman-hearted.
I for one have no fears for the future, pro
vided man will do bis duty Holland achieve!
her independence under more frightful odda
than the South has to contend with. During
the Revolution, the British not only had pos
session of our seaport towns, but the interior
was overrun by their devastating armies. And
yet the flower of English soldiery retreated
before our valorous troops, and the roar of the
British lion ceased to strike terror into the
hearts of our colonists. I guess however that
there was not such a demand for “office” as
there now is ; I guess there were not so many
young men speaking of joining every compa
ny that was formed, and yet join none: not
so many families that hadn’t sent out a sin
gle volunteer; not so many who were going
to volunteer when their own particular State
was invaded, but who, when the State was in
vaded, and the enemy thundering at their
very gates, sought other excuses for remaining
at home, just as they all along intended —
traitors to their own firesides and coontr .
We are now, it is true, overshadowed by a
cloud, broad and gloomy as a nation’s paM,
but the eye oi faith and patriotism can pierce
the murky mass, and in the dim vista can be
seen the star of Hope gilding tbe future and
guiding us by its genial rays.
We may, and probably w 11, have to pass
through long years of toil and suffering; per
haps be bereft of fortune and friends, and all
that is sacred and dear, but if all our energies
are directed to one point; we shall come out
victorious. The Yankees may whip us, but
they can’t subjugate us; and I for one feel
very much the spirit of the woman who called
her husband a lousy cat/. Yon remember he
whipped her and tried to make her take it
back, and finally, drsgging her to the water’s
edge he plunged her in, and asked her what
she had to say. With woman’s dauntless
spirit 6he raised her hands above her head,
and went through the process of cracking
nits on her nails! (Excuse the homeliness of
tbe figure.) Or like the young soldier of whom
I read last year: On being told he had but a
few minutes to live, he replied I must give
one more shout for my country, and raisirg
his voice he shouted “victory! victory” as
long as le could speak. And whea his tongue
failed to perform its office, he seized a small
Confederate flag and waved it aloft till the
clammy dews of death gathered on h s brow,
and his arm sank pulBe’ess by his side. So it
must be with us; as long as we have the pow
er of speech we mu3t exhort our husbands,
brothers and sons to go fortu in this mighty
work of deliverance, and when that fails we
must give the sign. Let the young men un
derstand that on the brave volunteer alone
will woman’s smile be lavished, while on the
dastard who basely stays at home, as long a3
an insulting enemy plants his standard ou
Southern soil, rest, forever rest, the anaihe
mas of WOMAN.
Interesting Statements concerning the
*« MonitorCapt. Ericsson before the
N. Y. Chamber of Commerce.
On Wednesday, the 12th March, the inven
tor of the iron floating battery, the Monitor,
or Ericsson Battery, was before the Chamber
of Commerce, where be read the following
letter from the commander of the Monitor,
interspersed and followed, as it is, by com
ments and predictions of bis own. He said
I have tbe great satisfaction to tell the
gentlemen that this morning, a few minutes
after I was called upon to attend this meet
ing, I got a letter from Capt. Stimers. I will
now read you Capt. Stimers’ letter :
Iron-Clad Monitor, (_
Hampton Roads; March 9, 18(52- j
“ My Dear Sir: After a stormy passage
which proved us to be the finest sea boat I
was ever in, we fought the Merrimac tor more
than three hours this forenoon, and sent her
back to Norfolk in a sinking condition. Iron
clad against iron-clad. We manoeuvred about
tbe bay here, and went at each otber with
mutual fierceness. I consider that both ships
were well fought. We were struck twenty-
two times -pilot house twice, turret nine times,
side armor eight times, deck three times. The
only vulnerable point was the pilot house.—
One of your great logs (nine by twelve inch
es thick) is broken in two. The shot struck
just outside of where the captain had his eye,
and it ha3 disabled him by destroying his
left eye, and temporarily blinding the other.”
This is proved since not to be so. It was
imagined at first that bis eye was lost.
“ The log is not quite in two, but is broken
and pressed inward 1£ inches.”
This shows the immense force of those
shots. This beam is 9 inches by 12, and of
tbe best wrought iron. This gives an idea of
the difficulty of resisting these shots, aud
yet we have succeeded in the turret in doing
so.
She tried lo run us down and sink us as
she did the Cumberland yesterday, but Bhe
got the worst of it. Her bow passed over
our deck, and our sharp, upper-edged side
out through tbe light iron shoe upon her stem,
and well into her oak She will not try that
agaiD. She gave us a tremendous thump,
but did not injure us in tbe least. We are
just able to find tbe point of contact.”
This is gratifying, that after such a con
cussion it was difficult to sec where she suuck
her.
The turret is a splendid structure. I
don’t think much of the shield, but tbe pen^
dulums are fine things, though 1 cannot t
you how they would stand the shot, as the;
were not hit.”
The shield is an extra thickness of two
inches on the fighting side. It was placed
there principally on account of the sound.—
I was afraid that the force of the shock would
knock the men down.
‘•Yon were very correct in your estimate of
the effect of shot upon the man on the inside
of the turret when it was strut.k near him —
Three men were knocked down, of whom I
was one; the other two had to be carried
below, but I was not disabled at all, and tbe
others recovered before the battle was over ”
Before the Monitor left I charged tbe officer
particularly to tell the men not to be fright
ened. I told him to tell the men, let every
man go down on his knees, and don’t be
alarmed when tbe rebel shot strikes you, be
cause it wont hurt you. They all put the
question to him, *• Won’t tbe shot go through?
No,” says he, “ it will stay out.” “ Then
we don’t cure,” they said. But for this pre
caution there would have been great conster
nation when the turret was struck. You
may estimate the shock when a shot of 200
pounds weight, moving at the rate of 2,000
feet in a second, strikes within a foot of a
man’s head.
Captain Worden stationed himself at the
pilot house. Green fired the guns, and I turned
the turret, until the Captain was disabled,
and was relieved by Green, when I managed
tbe turret myself, Master Stodden having
been one of tbe stunned men.”
I proposed to the Captain to let the sailing
master turn tbe turret. On one side of tbe
turret tbore is a telescope, a reflector, the
image being bent by a prism. This sailing
master, who has nothing to do on tbe Monitor,
I proposed should be stationed there. He
not only locked through the telescope, but by
means of a small wheel he turned the turret
just exactly where he liked. He did that to
admiration, pointing it exactly on the enemy.
As the Monitor weut round, tbe turret kept
turniog (it no doubt astonished Capt. Bu
chanan,) so that wherever the Monitor was,
in whatever position it was placed, tbe two
bull.dogs kept looking at him all the time.
“Capt. Ericsson, I congratulate you upon
your great success. Thousands have this day
blessed you. I have heard whole crews cheer
you. Every man feels that you have saved
this place to the nation by furnishing us with
tbe means to whip an iron-clad frigate that
was, until our arrival, having it all her own
way with cur most powerful vessels.
“ I am, with much esteem, very truly yours,
ALBAN C. STIMERS.
“ Capt. J Ericsson, No 95 Franklin street,
New York.”
I cannot permit this opportunity to pass
without saying that I look upon the snccess
of that as being entirely owing to the pres
ence of a master mind. The men were new ;
their passage had been very rongb, and the
master had to put his vessel right under tbe
heaviest guns that are ever worked on ship
board. It is evident that but for the pres
ence of a master mind cn board of that ves
sel, that snccess could not have been achieved.
Capt. Worden, no doubt, acquitted himself in
the most masterly manner. But every ihing
was quite new. He felt quite nervous before
he went on board The fact that the bulwark
of the vessel was but oDe foot above tbe water
line, was enough to make him so. When 1
was before the Naval Committee, the grand
objection was that in sea way the vessel
would not work. I gave it as my opinion
that it would prove the most easy working in
sea way, and it is an excellent sea boat.
The men are supplied with fresh air, though
there is no opening except through tbe tur
ret, by means of blowers worked by the en
gines, and they are perfectly comfortable.
They can remain on the top of the turret
in the sea-way ; it is sixty-four feet in cir
cumference—quite a promenade. Though the
deck is but a foot above the water line, the
top of the turret is nine feet above, and here
is the important point, that this vessel is, in
the sea way, perhaps the safest vessel ever
built. It takes 670,0C0 pounds to bring her
down. There can be no danger of her
swamping. It is very much like a bottle
with a cork in it. In relation to tbe point,
whether the Monitor is capable of taking care
of the Merrimac, let me say that she would
have sunk the Merrimac but for the fact of
her having fired too high. If they had kept
off at a distance of two hundred yards, and
held the gun exactly level, the shot would
have gone clean through.
But Mr. Stimers had the guns elevated a
little, and the roof of the Merrimac is so
strong that the balls rebounded. Next time
they encounter the Merrimac they will leave
the guns level and they won’t mind if the
ball strikes the water, because the ricochet
will take it where they want it. The next
time they go out 1 predict the third round
will sink the Merrimac. There is another
great point. They had 50 wrought iron shot
which were not used. Capt. Dalghren issued
peremptory orders that they should not be
used, and they obeyed those orders. Now,
wrought iron shot is one thing and cast iroD
shot is another. A wrought iron shot cannot
break. The side armor of the Merrimac is

Mr. Ericsson—In about one minute aud a

you have time for one to tool. You may de
pend upon it that if the Merrimac copies ou!
again she will be sunk.

Ericsson whether be has heard that one of
bis shot entered the Merrimac, killed 17 men
and wounded Cap!. Buchanan, who has since
died ?
Mr. Ericsson—1 have not.
Mr. Brown—It must have been a shell
Mr. Ericsson—That is not possible ; but if
a solid shot goes through tbe Merrimae, the
armor would be carried in a great many
splinters ; the shot weighing 185 pounds,
there would be a regular shower of wood and
iron ; but it is quite well ascertained that a
shell cannot pass an iron plate two inches
thick. You can hardly imagine what com
motion would take place from such a shot.—
The decks would be almost literally removed.
A member—I would like to ask of Captain
Ericsson, whether his battery could not be
erected on various points of our harbor for
its defence.
Mr. Ericsson—I imagine that the best kind
of a harbor defence is a floating structure,
that can be removed from place to place.
The Member—You can move this turret in
