There is something in it, despite the wrongs inflicted upon the South by the North, that we like. In battle it waved over the foemen of the Southland we have always thought that had it waved over our own gallant soldiery in that great sectional contest; or, in other words, had the South maintained her cause in and not out of the Union, the result might have been quite different. For the “Flag” itself, it was designed and unfurled by the decree not of those who, in their triumph, have placed stains upon it, but of a more patriotic breed, men of noble blood who have passed away, and whose “like,” we fear we “shall not see <. gain.” But under the same ‘ Old Flag” the South will have to march; over her people it will eonliniie. to wave; and is it not better for the South to uphold it as they once did, patriotically and gallantly, one of her provinces being the remov al of whatever of stain, on her judg ment may be upon it, so that again it may become emblematical of that which the Fathers of the Republic de signed it should be—a Union of States as represented in its Stars, and a ter ror to the enemies of free government, is represented in its Stripes. — Atlanta Intelligencer. Says the Courier-Journal: “The sword has decided that the Union shall stand; and, if the North and the South are to live together, the voice of common sense, no less than the instinct of human nature, calls for a truce to violent passions. The peo ple of this country are not prepared for an imperial oligarchy or a Repub lican despotism. They w ant a union of reciprocal interests, a mutual and a just union of free and equal States, and they know that this cannot be ob tained without some concessions and sacrifices on both sides. The red-hot Radicals and the red-hot Democrats would commit us to an endless war— to a war of ignorance and hate —which end only w ith the loss of our liberties, losing us meanwhile our law r s. The national Democratic party steps out boldly to the music of the future—the music of freedom, peace and union, a new and a god-like trinity —marching under the flag of our fathers. “The Flag of the Union, which has been desecrated by a thousand unwor thy uses, which has been employed as the drop-curtain in a partizan play house, covering all sorts of bad actions and bad men, is to be snatched out of the jaws of death, chastened and puri fied by blood and tears, and raised once more as a symbol of protection over the host of the Lord. That host does not propose to sing in honor ei ther of John Brown’s body or Jclin Brown’s soul. It proposes as it moves fcrw T ard to the light to take up an old er and a sweeter song, a song suited to the ensign and the cause, a song whose tones will bring back many a wandering heart to its better self and recall many a vagrant footstep to the beaten tracks that were worn into the American system by the patriots of other days, and an old, God blessed, familiar song, which the people have not forgotten to sing— And the star-spangled banner, oh, long may it wave O’er the land of tlie free and the home of the brave.” __ ‘ FILTHY LUCRE.” In eagerly looking over exchanges for an item of interest with which to treat the readers of the Exntsss, this week, our eye lit upon the following article, which we find in, and clip from, the editorial columns of the Savannah Daily Republican, as well a dapted to the people, and the time in which we now live. If something is not done to divert the minds and hearts of the people from the subject which heads this article, the people and country will all go to the devil, we awfully fear. The Republican says: Whatever may have been the origin of the unflattering name given to the great neces sity of civilized life—money—it will not be denied that it can be applied, in these degen erate days, with painful and regrettable truth. An “honest has, specially in our large cities ffltoag those whose influence is latent for good or evil, become to nemly a mere sound, that we not unfrepuently hear the man struggling to earn a Uvlthood, Editor and Proprietor. little bark beating against wind and tide, groan in almost despair, and express the sentiment ©f the embitterd Jaffier, [itv “I’m thinking Pierre, how that starvingqual- Callcd honesty, got footing in the world.” Well may the thrift gained by murder, robbery, treachery, swindling, deception in all its forms, and impurity generally, be despised by all to whom honor is not an empty name, and such gains, coined in shame, be stamped as “filthy lucre,” The disciples of logo crowd the mart and detile the stock exchange, faithful to but one idea, “ Put money in thy purse.’** Here and there, like some grand relic of the old regime , a monument of the past, tow ering like the pyramid of Cheops amidst a degenerate people, a bright example illu mines the glcom who daily acts in the full appreciation of the high-toned morality of Brutus —“the noblest Komuu of them all.” — What noble scorn L “I can raise no money by rile means; By Heaven 1 had rather coin my heart, And drop my blood for drachmas, than wring From the hard hands of peasants their vile trash By any indirection.” How transcendency more worthy of imi tation the stern, lofty virtue of the Homan patriot, than the time-serving policy of the Venetian sneak, the prince of betrayers— “honest Iago!” Vv ell may the spirit yet not completely lost be appalled at the sight of ‘filthy lucre,’ which, like a gorgon, rises to reproach and disturb it with dreams of ill-gotten wealth- Farewell, “Innocent sleep 1” Poor victim! how he writhes under the goatlings of afiliet ed conscience! Still he clutches the spoils of hard dealing —the wages of dishonor. “There’s some ill a-brewing toward my rest, For I did dreaui of money bags to-night.” Some, we fear, and charity bids us hope they are few, have either been denied a fair share of moral sense or they have ucquircd an indurated philosophy that defies all self rebuke. With them ‘filthy lucre’ lias been metamorphosed into a smiling god, radiant as Apollo. Such an one may be said to have accomplished, by a feat of legerdemain, or by some distorted process of moral reason ing, the difficult task of holding “A fire in liis hand, By thinking on the frosty Caucasus.” The basely gotten gain is viewed only in the light of the show and splendor that daz zles the eye of paltry ambition. The filthy thing is held with rapture by thinking on the luxuries that rise before the distempered imagination. It is no longer a vile reptile; it is a seraphic vision. Mepliistopeliles, the magician, is before the footlights; he ex hibits —what? “Filthy Lucre.” Hold! presto , change ! Astonished victim, what see you ? Pure, virgin gold, coined in the mint of honor—stamped with the image of Inno cence. Powerful wizzard ! hardened admi rers ! blind, deluded victims! But we must not omit the “silver lining,” for, to the millions—those who find their daily bread in the “sweat of the brow”—it is no longer the same polluted thing. It has then been baptised and regenerated. Hard labor concecratea and restores it to the vir gin purity it had in its original bed in moth er earth. The consciencious worker in the pulpit—at the bar—at the desk. —who strug gle to meet, the necessities of nature sancti fies it the moment it touches his hand. It is converted into a winged messenger cf joy when dispatched by love and charity to the cabin of want. It enters like the stray sun beams th&.t qr.eep through the chinks of the cold, dark,, and dingy garret to cheer the sa<i hearts and warm, the thin blood of the emaciated thousands who— “Stich, stich, stick, In hunger, poverty and dirt.” It is not, however, of any of these points we designed to speak when we commenced. We desired specially to remark upon the piles of “filthy lucre * accumulated in cer tain Sections of the country, which has been the direct product of a corrupt press. Orig inally intended as a blessing to man, for the enlightenment of ignorant mind, and the dissemination of health-giving knowledge, it has become the engine of evil—a vast and imposing car of Juggernaut, before which deluded thousands are prostrating them selves to their sure destruction, while society weeps and wails for its loved and lost. The richest gifts of the mind are being prostitu ted in the unholy work of manufacturing the unhealthy literature that, like a pestilen tial vapor, has settled upon the land. Beau tiful art has been dragged into the arena and forced to play its part in the great dra ma of “filthy lucre."’ It has been made the handmaid of Vice, to paint her in the seduc tive colors that fascinate the eye, and allure the young into the vortex of guilt and shame. The sun rises every morning upon car loads of literature steeped in poison and reeking with the fumes of depraved talent, to be dis tributed throughout the length and breadth of this magnificent land, to do its deadly mission upon the yet tender and vulnerable hearts of the pure and innocent. Let out raged society answer. Crime, in all its hid eous forms, stalks naked in tk,e light of day. Marriage has, in certain latitudes, ceased to be sacred —has become a mere conventional garb to be changed according to the pleasure or whim of the wearer, or the dictates of fashion. Even the law has been converted into a murderous instrument of domestic death, and woos its victims into the unlial • —,ii WA . » og “without lowed practice oi , . publicity,” prostituting the noble profession t„ the beastly appetites, by encourogmg do mestic strife, and offering a premium on dis honor in tlie great circles of Vanity Fair. _ Cannot all this be traced, in great meas , ure , directly or indirectly, to these vile ema- Premium for Nit I>s<-r Utter*.

And when we glance back and around us, well may we shudder fertile future; for, is not this monster jet young, indeed? Filthy lucre, its offspring, growing by whui ii feeds on, is ac.,uTfliVg * daily accumulative power, und is now infill copartnership to widen and extend the en terprise. >Vitk these facts staring us in the face, why will we contribute to, or countenance, either directly or by silence, a literature that threatens to sap the very foundations of society ? It should be frowned down, not encouraged ; for every cent that is expended in this product, but adds to the capital stock of filthy lucre, to enable it to extend the cir culation of an issue that can only result in still further ruin. >Ye say spurn it! there's blood upon it! there is shame upon it— shame without a blush ! It is the subtle poison that is now at work upon the heart and brain and vitals of the country, divert ing youth from the proud mission once the pride and glory of the American citizen.— Time was when the presence of even a novel not warmly approved by the guardian genius of the family, was hateful in every bousc-- hold- Purely imaginative literature, not properly stamped with the approval of. watchful affection, was cast out like a viper, over the thrcslikold. Now, the enemy has come in such force that resistance seems feeble,, and the Angel oj! I’euce, whose pre sence is all that makes dear the domestio sanctuary, is in constant danger of perpet ual banishment. Is there no hope—no remedy? Is society to submit without a serious, earnest struggle? We at the South have long boasted a free dom from these depraved appetites that find a god in filthy lucre. How do we stand to day ? Arc we, too, drifting into the im mense current, which, commencing at the great metropolis, is broadly sweeping over the laud from the Atlantic to the Pacific?— Are we erecting no bcarier to stay the tide? Is the Southern press doing its duty? Its representatives, as we know they are will ing to do, should arrange themselves in sol id phalanx to beat it back. Like the glori ous old “Knights of the round table,” they should be ever ready, lance in rest, to bear down upon the common enemy; to defend the cause of the victim of filthy lucre; and, above all, to rescue virtue, and guard the honor of woman—woman, who, in her nor mal lovliness, untainted by outside evil, stands the guardian angel of our homes— the central light of the domestic circle, and without whom, in her natural purity, life would, indeed, be a desert waste, or a fierce battle of contending passions, more than ev er realized the terrible figure of disappoint ed, reckless ambition ‘•A tale, Told by an idiot, full of found and lury. Signifying—nothing.” JOYFULLY, JOYFULLY,. Joyfully, joyfully, onward we move, Bound to the land of bright spirits above; Jesus our Saviour, in mercy, says, Come, Joyfully, joyfully, haste to your home. Soon will our.pilgrimage end here below, Soon to the presence of God we shall go, Then, if to Jesus our hearts have been given, Joyfully, joyfully rest we in heaven. Teachers and scholars have passed on before; Waiting, they watch us, approaching the shore; Singing to cheer us, while passing along, Joyfully, joyfully haste to your home. Sounds of sweet music there ravish the ear. Harps of the blessed, your strains we shall hear, Filling with harmony heaven’s high dome,. Joyfully, joyfully, Jesus, we come.
