CAN THE AMERICAN UNION BE KESToRKD.
The best people injthe States and the
wisest people here al' lock to “an
amicable separation as the only possible
solution of the difficulty, .Mid the only
way to heal the breich of feeling
They fondly hope that the successes of
the North may give it the opportunity
of making terms some wha more agree
ably and more advan'ageously than
was possible after i's previous disas
ters. But it is one thing to hope for suc
cess as the means of pacification, and
another thing to use it for that purpose
The American heart is very suscep
tible of victory and the ambitious hope
which it feeds. We have to consider
now what a conquering army and Gov
ernment are likely to be content with ;
and tiiat remains to be seen. With the
tide of victory there conies often a tide of
arrogance which knows not moderation
Even tile most obdurate claim ascribed
to the North is the possession of the
border States le tving the Gulf States
to the new Ccnfedcrate Union; but both
interest and feeling bind Kentucky and
Tennessee not to say .Maryland, to the
South. It must be confessed, though
we have occasional hints in private
letters and di.-p'tches ilxuit an amica
ble separation, that neither is the idea
to be found in any American document
or j.mrnal nor has it lierA been put into
anv t.istinc- and intelligible form. |
The debt the tariff, the tax i ion, the
fugitive slave law, and many -o her '
questions rise like rocks ahead as we
b> >k ’tit f>r the promise 1 day which is
to give us two friendly Unions of mod j
erate p wev and temper, instead of the
one we find so hard to deal with. The 4
war has brougiit into light and deve
loped to , serious proportions a thirds
party in this coidl ct —-the strong, in-I
creasing, ind-pendent, se t-conquering'
Western Sta’cs. I hey are now doing
’he work and they know it. They will
n >t contribute to the payment of the;
m--lister debt nor e. n they be made to *
contrilut
Yet if th- New England States cannot
exact it from them, or from the South, I
which will find its own burden quite e
nough to bear,how wil' they tolerate the j
indignity of paying the whole cost them- I
selves? But this is only one of the many ;
questions which the two Goverments ■
will have to si<ttle when they find a Vil- i
lafrance on American soil, there are *
reasons which seem to make it utterly ,
impossible for Nor h amT t'ottih. East ■
and West to be friendly without a union |
of instituti ns and fusion of interests'
The Americans, however Irsve still to -
learn that if truth it be and i
what Is more they have to learn the ’
moderation necessary to give it due'
effect.— L mdon Times.
DETERMINATION OF THE SOUTH, j
The North is at last becoming con- j
vtnged of the determination of the |
South in this struggle. The New York '
.Ea-press publishes the following extract *
from a letter written by a Northern 1
man in Nashville:
The rebel army is just begining to go ;
to work in earnest there, and will fight '
the stronger when they have noborder ;
St ite defences to divide iheir forces.
They are just begin ling to realize that ■
the Federal soldiers are worth fighting '
against an 1 that thousands.of men who
|ieretofore thought there was no list of:
enlisting now begin to see tint they wil! i
be wanted. We shall hear of a large j
rebel army in three or four weeks than ■
ever before. They don’t mean to give j
up but will fight it out moving back- ,
wards by slow degrees and destroying I
ail property that is moveable and ; er
ishable, except their cities until their i
lines of defence is established with a j
concentration of force .is will k* ep our •
soldiers from any decisive authority |
over territories south of the border line, j
T. e Northern and Southern States j
have undervalued their enemy ever *
since the war began and that partic
ularly at the South they needed reverses
to inspire concentrated action. Anoth
er mistake made by the Confederates
w.is that they did not think the Union
troops would commence spring opera
tion so soon <n. hence they were not pre
pared for them to the extent they now
are or soon will be It looks now as
if the border States will go but they
will make an effort to save them as
long as possible, so as to perfect their
preparation for resistance further South.
They don’t mem to give in under any
circumstances while the Lincoln admin
istration lasts. This is the intention o(
even those who look upon the ultiin ,te
end as doubtful. We have all along ;
under estimated both the force of the i
rebel army ami the sentiment, of the ;
South. The respectable opinions I j
hear expressed however cautiously are I
uniform on this point . It is no use to I
deceive one’s self with the attempt t .
believe that the Union sentiment is to i
be knocked into the rebels by hard |
blows. They h.ite the North since the J
war, and since the victories worse than i
ever.
The Augusta Chronicle says:—“There
seems to be no alternative for Beauregard
but a victory or an early retreat. The
armies cannot stand facing each other
much longer. To sa/e Memphis and
neutralise the advantages gained by the
enemy in the surren lerof Island No. 10
the enemy’s army in front of Corinth
must be defeated. If Fort Pillow is
passed, our army is environed on three
sides, and its only remaining commuiea
(ions by the NewOrlean* and Jackson
and by the Mobile and Oh o Ila'lro’d
are endang-red.
THE MARIETTA WEEKLY ADVOCATE.
JUrnafe.
- MARIETTA GEO.,
FRIDAY MORNING APRIL 25. 1862
A mistake having been made in
making up first fo'm of this paper,
in dividing- the article entitled “ The
1 Contumacious Sta'c Prisoners in Wash
' ingtor,” the whole article is placed to- *
j getlier on the second page.
The Public Square,
The grasses in our City Square now 1
* appear in all their luxuriance. Our
I farmers would do well to observe the I
Red Clover, 1 imo hy, Blue
i Grass, Orchard, Lucerne. No. and sat
isfy themselves thatoiir lands me high
ly adapted 10 their growth. It seems
to us that if every farmer would calcu- |
late the value of one acre of such gras*!
to him, we would soon witness an im
portant improvement in out agricul
t u re.
The Sick Soldiers.
We learn that there are now some two
hutidrvd sick and convalescing Soldiers in
Marietta. Every requisite attention is
provided t’>r them by the Ladies of the
place ; though we understand that contri
butions if provisions from the countiy
have been received, and continue to be
very acceptable.
The Wheat Crop.
We are sorry to learn that the ntsr ha
made its appearance at this early p riod in
Wheat, in almost every recti >n of the
county —thus blighting our h-p.es of an
abundant supply of this important gram.
The wet weather, which has had much
to do in producing the rust in wheat, has
also delayed Corn planting, but we hope
that both for upland and bottom we may
vet have a prop tious s a-on Plant on,
even though it be ate. It is all impor
tant that we make Corn 1 '.
Salt.
Meetings are being held at various
points in the State to devise ways and
means for procuring this essential com
modity. It is certainly time we were
making some effort to obtain a supply, as
the stock will soon be wholly exhausted
in the South. We are not aware of the
a<b'p'i--n of anv plan as yet, but see no
rcas n why the object, may not, with the
proper < ff-rt, be succ- s-fnlly accompli-li
ed.
Richmond.
A correspondent <*f the Charleston
Mercury thinks the great battle in Vir
ginia will take p'acc within ten or twenty
miles of Richmond. “Richmond,” lie
says from the preparations now making
for its def n<e “ may n*>'.v be regarded
as in a state of siege.”
The Fight at Yorktown.
The Seventh tin 1 Eighth Georgia Re
giments were Engaged in the*signal re
pulse of the enemy recently at York
town. In the Seveflth there were two
killed and Hire wounded. No names
are given.
The Houston (Texas) Telegraph has
from the western part of the State dread
ful accounts of the drouth now prevailing
and its effect- upon the cattle. Thou
sand upon thousand- of them ate dying
for want of water. If it does not rain
s >Oll there will be bard times in Western
Texas before the year is out.
P. VV. A writing for the Mobile /ie~
gitter frftin Memphis, says:
The condition of affairs up the Missis
sippi river is by no means satisfactory.
The reduction of Islanl 10 though
anticipate*! is a very serious blow, and
will be followed so< n. I fear by the fall
of Foil Pillow. Trtcre would be no dlffi
culty in holding the river again t gun
boa's alone but the case is very diffe.rent
when there is a large co-operating land
force. I need not ref* rto the deplorable
co sequences th at would f >ll**w the fall
of Fort Pillow; they will readily occur
to the mind of every intelligent reader.”
' A Dashing Charge. A Lincoln Senator

Th M'inphis Argus ol the 11th inst.

Forrest with his cavalry regiment, in
which he run a panic stricken regiment
or Lincoln cavalry headlong through the
ranks of a Lincoln regiment of infantry
beating down, mangling and killing them
in considerable nnmbers, who in turn
run their bayonets thro the horses of the
frightened wretches as they lied as the
only means of self protection that was

Savannah. April 15, 1862.
Hon. G. W, Randolph, Sec etary of
War, Richmond:
1 have just received your telegraph in
forming me of tne passage of the Con
scription Act. I have not seen the act,
but presume you 11 ay construe it as dis
banding the Georgia State Troops. The
troops are going out of service, and the
pnbl c exig ncies req 11 re p'ompt action, i
Under the coincspondence with you and j
Gen. Lee, 1 had commenced re-enlisting :
them in the State sirv’ne for the year-, |
g ving a crcd.t for the six months tin v
have served.
I now propose to cease my opera'ions
and to turn over thetrorps who yet re
main itr service, with the responsibility'
to y-’U, immediately, in -u* h manner as
may be most agieeable to the President.
As it is neec ssary to the safety of
Savannah that, the number of the Stale
Troops be immediately inertased, if
they are kept Sialo service I ask an im
mediate r.-ply by telegraph to this
place.
Joseph E Brown.
Richmond, April 16,. 1862.
To His Excellency Gov. Brown:
Ke* p the troops together, as it will
cause great trouble to enroll and
bring th«ni back, if they disband. The
act authorizes the President, with the
consent of the Government, to employ
the enro ling officer of the State for the
purpose of enrolling those not in the Con
fulcrate service. You can, therefore
employ your enrolling officers immediate
ly to enroll the men, and I will send in
structions fi r their organization. zVli
betwren 18 and 35 are to be in the Con ■
federate servic*-; 'he remainder may be
organized by the States.

Passage of Lincolox’s Emancipation
Scheme. The Northern Congress hav
ing abolished slavery in the District 01,
rColumbia, the next step of the, abolitions
programme has been taken by passing,'
the emancipation sche.me recommend'd
by Lincoln, looking to the extinction of
slavery in the border States. Thus the
movement goes on. We give a copy
ol tl.e resolution with the vote and
closing remarks in the Senate on its
filial passage:
On motion of Mr. Trumbull, of Illinois
the resolution from tin.* Ilouaedeclaring
that the U. Stales ought to aid such
States as.adopt the policy of emanci
pation. was taken up.
Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, had the floor.
Mr Saulsbury of Delaware, desired to
amend by adding; “It being hereby
declared that the Constitution of the
United States gives to tbe U. States
no power to render such aid.’’
I The Chair stated that the proposition
was not then in order.
Mr. Sherman said this subject was the
bane of American politics, and the war
had rendered necessary here the intro
duction of various important measures
he proceeded Io give his v <>w represen
ting as h * di I tw*> millions < I people in
Ohio in then: till at once.
Conct'i ss tad the sole poa<l <>(’legis
lation hera exc'ns ve jurisiiict.on,’’ ai d
if it cell'd net voi stitutioiially abo'ish
slavery, there was no oil,er .-ie,‘.| ie y that
could. As a measure of poli:h-af econ
omy, bi-netieial t<* properly, the mcn-ase
of trade and population, act, lie consideicd
the imasuie most desirable f*>r the
pt opie h re.
lie held that, the Republican party
had Deen most liberal to its opponents
since come int l power the admiui**! ration
coiiferring dignity and posi'ion in the
at tny, especially upon democrats; and
as proof cd the di.-posi ion in regard to
the rights of the slave States referred to
the proclamations of the g< i.erais dis
claiming intention to interfere with the
institution.
Referring to the alleged indications
of a rising reactionary elements for the
overthrow of tin.' Republican partv be
cause of its measures he read an account
from a Philadelphia paper of a political
consultation said to have been lately
held in Wa-hington in which his c *ll.ei
gne in (h*‘ otlu-r House (Mr Vallanding
ham) had iiittoibtccd resolutions for au
organization of the old demociatie party
and which was attended by senators
from Virginia and.others. H
Mr Carlile 1 f.Virginia, said he had been
handed a call to attend at the house of a
me über who was a Democrat, and though
little of'it but atteiide*!. It. was no ( rii.nn
ized matt.-r, and no p n ty was mentioned.
There was free conversation, but no result; -
attempted, and if an) thing al all was ,
don**, it was a general agreement that the
adn'itiistration was to be snpporfeb in
crushing she rebellion.
Mr Latham of Ca iforn a, said that
himself and colhague had also been invi
t d to attend on the occasion in qneation
an I nothing had been said of parties.
Mr Sherman was glad those gentlemen
had made this explanation and continued
the defence of his party d< elating he did :
not fear the judgtn nt of the p ople for 1
himself or party in their determination 1
to do right. • 1
M . Sanlabuiy a amendment was 'then
rejected.
Mr. S tulbury said he s-h* ttld offer no
further amend-m-nt-’ and the question
being about, to b.> taken 011 the resolu'ion
he called for the yetis an 1 nays, and the
r« solution was adopted y ar 32, nays 10 :

Tho federalshave landed a consi'deralde force

The New York Herald of the 11th instant

‘Later intelligence from Island No. 10
puts its in possession of the important fact
that the surrender ot that place has resulted
in the capture of five thousand rebels, with
Major General and three Brigadier Generals.
We also took about 50,000 solid shot, and
immense quantititiss of ammuution, together
with 200 hogshead of sugar, and several hun
dred barrells of molasses, 80 cannon, -100

The Loaf. - Once upon a time, dur
ing a famine a rich man invited twenty'
of the poorer children in . the town
to his house, ami said to them;
“In this basket there is a loaf * f
bread fore o h "I you; take it. ami come
cvei v day a' this hour till God sends
us better lunes.”
The children pounced upon the b;::i
ket wrangled atid fought lor the bread,
and eaeti wished toget the I ngest loaf;
and at last went away, without, thank
ing him
Francesca al*me, a poor I. .'ally dress
ed little girl, stood modestly apart, took
the sm illest loaf which was le.t in the
brisket, gratefully ki-sed th*: gentle
man, ami then went home in a quiet
and becoming manner.
Ou the following day ho children
were equally ill bemtved, and poor Fran
cesca this time received a loaf wLich
was scarcely hall the size, of tho others
But when she came home, mid when h t
sick mother cut the loaf there fell out of
it quite a number of bright silver
pieces.
The mother was alarmed, and said,
“take back the money’ this instant, for
it has no doubt got it,to the bread
through some mistake.”
Francesca carried it lack, but the
benevolent gentlemen declined to re
ceive it.
“.\o, no,” said he, “It was no mis
take. I had the money baked in the
smallest loaf simply as a reward for
you my child. Always continue thus
contented, peaceable, unassuming. The
person who prefers to remain contented
with the smallest loaf rather than quar
rel for the larger one will find blessings
in this course of action still more val
uable than th- money was which baked
in your loa 1 .”
“Better a poor but peaceful life.
