In stead of decreasing in neighbors as some are, by this virtual expelling of your children and others from tbeir native home, and with them the fruits of tbeir toil, we ask you one and all to reverse the babit, and so manage as to keep them both about you. Cut up your unwieldy farms into smaller parcels, work them clo- j ser, and settle thereno your children and your children's children.

STtiMntMraMtDrR," Kit West, Flonia, March S., lfCl. j Messrs Editors: Agreeable ta prom-. isc, I will again indulge in a few moments' j chat with as many of my friends as may . honor my scrap letters -with a perusal, j It may be interesting to some of them to ; bear of our whereabouts, and to know bow I "the great question of the day" is pro-; gressing in this, the most Southern part of . the United States. We arrived here a few days ago from j New York, beariog important Government ' despatches to the squadron off Pensacola. : Having met tbe U. S. Steamer "Brooklyn" here, we have transferred our despatches ! to her, as she will proceed to Pensacola again, immediately on the reception of; coal, water, and sea-stores for herself snd : squaJron. Our presence is demanded here to assist in looking after Government 1 interests at these two most important mil- itary aod naval stations, Fort Taylor, at ' this city, and Fort Jefferson, at' Tortugw. Tbe latter fortification is about sixty-five miles to tbe westward of this city, and is one of the largest fortifications in America, as well as being one of the strongest. It is with feelings of great pleasure that we reflect on tbe exceeding good fortune of the Government io preserving these two ' strong-holds from the hands of tbe rebels. ' Nei'ber fort is quite completed, yet there : is a noble bsod of about three hundred men in each who will defend and protect ' them from the assaults of any Gre tbe en emy may send sgainst them. Yesterday, ' part of tbe soldiers from Texas were quar-: tcred in them. j The sentiment of the people in this city is about equally divided on the Secession question, lue secessionists rather nave tbe advantage, but things move on very much as before. Their flag floats gaily from many a turret in this city, right un der our own guns and those of Fort Tay lor. The "stars snd stripes" from tbe shipping and tbe Fort, are wafted by the same breesa as if in defiance of tbem. Although the "seven starred" flag brings down the most hearty curses of many, yet it stands unharmed by a single shot. Curses, although heavy, have never yet broken a flag staff, and the order has not yet been passed to burl anything more substantial at tbem. If our Commander-in-chief at Washington says, "Down with them," shot would be handled with a vim, because the Government must, in self-protection, bold on to these two ports, even should such a dirs fate crowd upon us as to separate every one of Slave States from the Free. By the by, I have a word to say to you on the subject, aod I know it does not agree with your ideas, but as you have heretofore published some of my notions, and have prevented, I suppose, any harm being done to tbe political belief of your readers by explanatory notes, you will again, I hope, if you see proper, use the same expedient It Is not strange that ws differ, snd if your correspondents all thought as you do, there would be leu va- riety, an J cooserj'iently tbeir letters would be perused perhaps nith lees interest. Being placed in a position where the question becomes qiite personal, as to the chance of being shot or booting somebody, we do same sharp thinking as to the pro priety of the measures that may be deter mined upon and carried out by the Gov ernment. Yet, as honest moo, who have sworn a solemn oath to support the Con stitution, aod obey all lawful orders of our superior officers, we have but one course to pursue. And as to myself, if by obeyiog I would be instrumental in destroying the lives of my owo-A-thers, if they were enrolled in the ranks of the enemy, I should noUhcs- itatc to obey. This is indeed the true state of affairs. .Shall we, therefore, risk the horrors of a citil war, because we have so ignorautly and basely attended to our duty, as lo per- mit onr erring sister States to triumph eo tar over our imbecility and warr. or deci - sive action, that we have now no method but tbis of coercing them in the path of honor and duty? Shall we insist on just- without mercy ? If so, then the quicker fraternal blood is spilled, and the desolating torch is carried through tbe re - bellious districts, the better. If we are to decide on this arrangement, then let ns be 6rm, active and united sparing neither lives nor property, but rush onward in tbe doubtful contest and bring this stern and terrible policy to a speed; end. Look lj00lt- Id be' ing at things in this light, I wou most happy to see our Government t .t tha magnanimous, and tell our err ns su- ' ters to so. with what we call their "pick. iLgs and stealings," and try tbe world on thcr own bock. They ma, get disgusted then give ample security for future food n!i!rl behavior. As an amendment would earnestlv recommend, that, if we , , - are to live on good terms with friends wbo ' do not teal, bu, simply "appropriate prop- erty," that we hcreafi ifter sbouldkeeD our' doors locked and wide awake.

Ed As Amendment toScit. The follow ing pungent resolution was introduced by Mr. M'Keon, in the Ilouse of Represen tatives at Washington. It sets forth in clear terms tbe principles which tbe trai tors of the South, aided and abetted by .i..:. ,,l.i,ra ,n,t .battnra at the tors at tb luvn .iuiw....-" North, are trvine to enforce. Here it is "ItctuletJ, That disunion and treason may be made lawful by adding to Article 2 of the Constitution tbe following amend ment : Whenever a Dartv shall be defea ted in an election for President or Vice President, such party may rebel and take ud arms, and unless tbe successful shall ' . . ... a ... 3 adopt as its own tne princt nciplesof tbe de- it to such amend- ion as tbe latter fcated party, and eonsent ments of tbe lonstttut party may dictate, the Union shall be at an nd."
