Tlltl RIGHT SPIRIT,
There is the ling of true manly patriot
ism, and a genuine love of freedom aud
horror of oppression, in the following
Christinas editorial of the Richmond BiT-
aminer. If this were the spirit of our
whole people, this damnable Yankee war •
would soon he squelched :
YN e shall have a merry Christmas next
3' 0ai ’, please Cod ! Even this year, the
Confct.eracy will celebrate the festival not
joylessly nor Hopelessly, while thinking
how .infinitely worse it would be if the
1 ankeo nation had only come in as our
masters. What a jovial Christmas dinner
we should have under the rule ol Major
General Buthr! We should have to go
to market furnished with a permit
from some I/utch or Uowneastcr
provost marshal—exhibit the certifi
cate thereof to a* negro guard—then
pass under the folds of the gridiron, which
that dag-flaunting people insist upon hoist
ing over everything—then humbly buv
our eggs or beef; and then to dimier with
what appetite we may. We apprehend
that some of us would choke.
So this season, if tho household hoard
bo somewhat less luxuriously spread than
ot yore and, alas ! it tne places be empty
of some w ho were once tho light, and joy,
and pride of the circle, still we have the
happiness to tread a land yet free, uncon-
quCred, indomitable; stifl wo are not
afraid to go out into our own streets, nor
ashamed to walk in the sun, aud to look
one another and our own children in the
face—as we all most certainly should be
it our enemies were in possession of this
city and we alive to see it. We arc not
yet called upon to say solemnly with our
hand on the JJihle, the cause in which we
suffered and sacrificed so much was a Mack
and foul crime—that Virginia is a loyal
and penitent province of Massachusetts
aud those, our best and noblest, whose
places will he vacant to-morrow and who
ma:cncd to their last bloody field, proud
ly r.tid gaily for the honor and freedom of
the:: country—to say and to swear that
they were traitors and felons, And justly
perished in their sin—so help us God f
1 h:s oath would choke us, it tho dinner
did not. •
And in truth, in (lie horrible case sup
posed, tbe sooner we all choke and hurst
the better. Life would be ended for us.
L\ ery Jay we shall cumber the earth and
affront the sun.would he twenty .four hours
at shame and confusion, for more than lia'f
our manhood would be gone. V’e could
not endure to live in the land that was
once our own proud countiy, and though
w e took the wings ot tlie morning, even
alar beyond the ocean, contempt and hu
miliation w ould cling and cleave to us, and
we should but drag at each remove a
lengthening chain. J t is wholly impossi
ble, b\ apy words, in any language, to
convey an idea of the infinite gulf that
sepaiates a people ot haughty freemen
horn a generation of subjugated rassels—a
naiifcn that treads firoadly its own soil,
from those who crawl by sufferance on
anothers laud a nation that makes its own

us tbe horrors of perpetual war, while we bargain
in advance for special disorganization and indus

in the gratification of vengeance it will afford up
on the authors and architects of our ruin.
“Revenge is a sweet morsel,” bat it docs better

and daily meals. In a word, we might well *.tarv4)

A Yankee Outrage—The friends aud ac
quaintances of Captain Thomas R Mitchel, of
Chattanooga, will regret to learn that lie was
imitticauly massacred by Yankee torie$ in tlie
presence of his wife at ShelbyVille, Tennsesee
Captain Mite he] was a* lawyer of bigh standing
in his native Stqte. When Chattanooga was
evacuated by our army, Mrs. Mitchell went to
her father’s Colonel Thos. Whiteside, at Shelby-
villa. After the battle of Franklin, Captain
Mitchell obtained leave of abs'ence to visit his
family. Soon after his arrival at Shelbyville
became kuown to the lories, be was shot by a
party of them in l*is farther iu-lavv’s yard, in the
presence of lus young and interesting wife.

the other, he liked to hear a sensible man talk.”

A writer in the Southern Confederacy, in nu able
review of the “Xatioimll peril, and its remedy,” gays :
There must be a great awakening nf-the people to a
full Reuse ot tlie perilous condition ofthe country (j ur
only remedy is in the strong arms and stout hearts of
men “who know their rights, and knowing, dure main

It is an axiomatic principle iu politics, that no nation
ism serious danger as long us the spirit of its people
n-miuns unbroken and defiant. * Let us theu signalize
mu living patriotism and burning zeal iu ourcountry’s
cause by pledging anew our abiding confidence in our
nitnnate. taccess upon the smokiug altars of our father
land. Let our Congress slumber no longer upon tho
verge of the precipice. Let them be assured that any
sacrifice,short of independence, will be made cheerfully
by their constituents, l’erbnps our cause might Le
strengthened by sending Commissioners to Washuj*-ton
with authority to aware the United States Government
t.i.itt.hc Confederate Government would recommend
to the several States t he gradual emancipation of sfa-
ven upon tbe condition of the acknowleiiginent of its
independence. We have nothing to lose by such a
proposition, for it is nowevjdcnt that the ‘ irrepressible
< on l.ct ol Lincoln and Seward will, soonei or later
render the institution of slavery entirely valueless -1
Let Congress do something to convince the people that
every reasonab.e efieri has been made to terminate the
war on honorable terms, and one great element of dis-
wiltefoction will be removed and that one of pub
lic sentiment will become more healthy aod much im-

David’s Syllogism.—Thomas fuller,
in his “Scripture Observations,” says :
. H, X find David making- a syllogism,
in bis mood and figure, trvo propositions he
perfected.
“It 1 regard iniquity in my heart, the
Lord will not hoar me.”
“lint veriiy God hath heard me. He
hath attended to the voice of my prayer ”
Now, I expected that David would have
concluded thus:
“Therefore, I regard not wickedness

away my prayer, nor His mercy from
I looked that he should have clapped
the crown on his own, and he puts it on
Gods head. I will learn this excellent
logic ; for I like David’s better than Aris-#

ises be, I make God’s glory the .conchu>.
