to be ended it will be done when the people of the
North are satisfi-d that we of the South, before we
will submit to their rule, will make a howling wil
derness of this country, aud put every invader lo
the sword who falls into our hands. If death, cer

an exposition' 1 of sense come o'er them all at ouce,
and get tired of the War. We iiave no desire to

that this war has been waged as no p-ople hut a
race of savages would have waged it But in
all candor and honesty, we believe that the "half

veal, and in a short time, a train of consequences
never dreamed of iu the wildest brain, or nurtured
in the bloodiest Yankee heart. The Black Flan-
will be unfurled, and the carnival of Bi.ooo will
begin. If we do not mistake the temper of the
North, and misinterpret the recent acts of Con

augurate the dark and bloody reign of terror. But

The North believes, or affects to believe, that the
war has been conducted on their part with too
much humanity and forbearance: And that they
rave only to inaugurate a reigu of terror, to drive f
every “rebel” and "rebel” sympathiser in dismay
to th§ protection of the Federal power. On the
oilier hand, the South is satisfied that the Yankees
l ave been treated with too much leniency—that
their homes have not been invaded, their property !
plundered, their estates ruined, nr their women and
little children driven out into the night and storm

We must not temporis • any longer. The day for

g Support for our Armies.
We have published daily, for the past week, in
dications of the earliest efforts of the United States
to raise tiiree hundred thousand troops iu addition
to those now iu the field. We believe it will he
done. And this is a contingency it behooves the
Government and people of the Confederate States
to prepare to meet. It will not do to wait until
these troops are recruited or conscripted, drilled
and disciplined into efficiency; and then, when we
begin again to lose States and cities, to find out :
what we ought to have done before and are com-!
pel led to do at last. This war has been hatched !
and nurtured into its preset^ gigantic proportions, 1
first by the dilatory, temporizing, weak policy of de
fence, and, second by the failure to have in j
the field an equal number of troops with the ene- I
uiy. *We have in every battle contended against ;
superior numbers, the approximation to tiie mini- j
hers of the foe, of course, varying in the differ- |
tnt engagements. We have won battles, but j
gained sina.l material advantages. So far th
i from our present position. Wehave had ou
j way in this matter of the war, and are not, as far
' as I can see, very much the better for it. ’ The
English told us all along that wi had better save
our blood and our money, and make a tiiendiy
parting with the South, since l was clear there
was no chanceof our dwelling together under the
j same government any more. Of course, we felt
I the gieatest contempt and hatred for whatever
Eflglund said, and knew that it must be done with
, a wish to ruin us. But for all I cau see, England
was not very far wrong. We hive been going to
conquer the South in thirty dajs We have uot
; done it yet, and for my part, I don't see that we
: .re much nearer doing it than w: were wh, u we
first began Hero we have belli for eighty years
I triumphing over poor old England because, she,

here we are after a year and a half of war, not
yet able to take Richmond, 130 miles South of
Washington, and very much afraid the other day
for the safety of Wtednugton itself. Then we
have been always at England ior hiring H- ssians

This scoundrel, the Northern papers state, has
gone to Kansas to raise a Brigade of “eontra-
binds.” Our government should at once declare
t,at the usages of civilized warfare will not be

Fire and the sword should be the entertainment
to which they are invited. Any officer caught in
company with armed contrabands should be hung
to the first tree. No quarter to such soldiers.

Our brave soldiers have but to strike another blow,
such as the North received before Richmond, and
our cause is safe. Halleck is the last hope of the
North. Defeat him, and tiie Yankees are without
hope tor the future. In the meantime, the ultra
legislation of Lincoln’s Congress- will work out
its legitimate results. Dissatisfaction is wide

der the necessity of continuing tiie struggle
have at present a great advantage in having de-
fe'ted their crack army, behind entrenchments,
and supported by very -superior artillery. It lias
made its best fight. But the lighting is to be re
newed. And numbers are relied upon to accom
plish our overthrow. Are vre to sit stili and see
three hundred thousand more men raised to fight
us, without prompt aud vigorous exertions to re
tain our superiority, and, at least, keep our rela
tive proportion of men in service? If, by reason
of our inferiority in this.respect, we agaiu sustain
reverses, at the end of three months, troops will
then have to be raised. Why not anticipate the
obvious necessity, and put men in camp? We
perceive our enemies doing it. This is the course
of prudence—the policy of safety. We can then
go on conquering and to conquer, until our inde
pendence is satisfactorily secured. We shall
make, assurance doubly sure, and the war both
successful and short.
For these reasons, we urge upon the Govern-

Then, as for military violence, Why, what were | trolI1 R lc hmond
all tne armies the English brought into the field
compared with those that are under the orders ot
oui geuerals? I don't beiieve Howe or Ciiuton
had ever at any time fifty thousand men under his
orders. Lord Cornwallis, when he strrendered at
Yorktown, had only a poor sever thousand men,
while McClellan and Davis, Halec.k and Beaure

half a million of met', on each side. We have
been in the habit of asking what right had-Ghe
English to call us rebels, aud to shed one drop of
blood in seeking to retain us pgaiust our will?
They ought to know that all men are free and
equal, and have a right to consult their own wish
es in the choice of a government and in search of
happiness. That’s very true, but are not the
South free and equal too ? Have not they as
much right as w e to consult ther own feelings in
the choice of a govrriinient anl the search after
happiness? The wisest people in England, du
ring the war of independence, c<n-idered that suc
cess was even more to be dreadtd than failure; for
while failure would diminish tlii empire, success
would destroy the liberties of the nation. Does
not the same danger hang ova us! If we lose
the South, we fese a large population and a vast
territory; but population increices tast in new
counties and as for territory, we sift 11 still have more
than we know what to do with. If, however, we
conquer the South, we must govern them by the
sword; and how sfiall wecontrivt to set up a mil
itary power and a strong exeeut ve. able to keep
the South iu slavery, and yet usable to encroach
upon the liberties of the North! The man has
got on the horse to kill the stag hut wheu he has
killed'him, are we quite sure that he will get off
again? It was very wrong of tiie English to
make war on a nation speating their owu lan
guage and of their own kindr»d and lineage, but
the relationship was remote and though Eng-
land aud America both belmged to the same
crown, they could not be s»id to be the sirae

blood and mangling our own flesh. V\e have hundred prisoners, destroyed an immense amount
been in the habit of despising England for her |
heavy debt and tha vast taxatioi her people have
to hear; but that deb: was maiily incurred in a
cause for which she has no rtason to blush—in
fighting for her own liberties aui those of Europe
u'ciiusi two great eonquerers, Louis XIV, and
the Emperor Napoleoli. That debt took a hun
dred and forty years to accumuate, while we have
incurred at least a quarter of it in a year and a
halt. But in what cause? Notto maintain liber
ty, not to preserve the balance of power, but to
put down these very principles of freedom to
which we owe our existence ss a separate State,
and to cause our children to piss through the fire
to the Moloch of overgrown pride and distem
pered ambition. Look how England lias treated
us. She is starving her operttives, crippling her
trade, riducing her revenue, rather than brink a
blockade which would melt away before her
breath, and vanish at her toich, while we have
been never weary of loadiug ier with insults. We
took from her the. right of seirck which she only
wanted for the protection of die negroes, fur the
sake of whom many of usprifess that we are car
ry ing on tiie present civil war We kept hack the
maps which showed that she was in the right in
the dispute about tiie Cana fan frontier; we bull
ied her out of her rights on the Columbia river;
we dismissed her Ambassador for enlisting our
people, though we are willing to take hers when
ever we can find them.”
But here we must supp°se the patience of the
audience to be entirely exhausted, and the orator
compelled to make a precipitate retreat, even if
he he fortunate enough to (scape equestrian ex
ercise ou a rail in what Sydney Smith calls “the
plumacian robe,” in which the sovereign people
of America are wont to dress those whom they do
not delight to horn r. This premature impatience
of the audieuce is the more to be regretted, as our
orator has by no means exhausted his subject. He
has yet to speak of the policy of defraying the
whole expenses of the w ar hy debt; of the enor
mous issues of paper money, levying a heavy tax
ou all creditors for the sake of a small immediate
advantage to the State; of (he proposal to aim
