Montgomery P. lilair : .My Dear Sir : 1 have this moment read, with groat interest, j'our Mary- and speech, which 1 received on Sat urday last. What surprised mo, how ever, is that a gentleman of your na tional proclivities should ever have hewn no grossly deceived- both as to tho origin and object of the lute civil war. lhc same lell agency is visible at Washington now that was visible at, the commencement of the struggle. The fanatical spirits who were there guiding and directing the etorm arc guiding and directing the State. The irescnt trulv alarmmtr condition ol our public affairs is but the logical conclusion from the principles taught so energetically by tbe leaders of the Republican party from its lirst organ ization ; nay, they aro the lulhllmcnt of tho predictions made by tho lound- crs ot tins Kepublic, should such a party ever attain ascendancy in this country. lou were wont to attribute to those of us, who sternly opposed tho late civil war, a lack of patriotism. How terribly you were mistaken. The men who could dare the most relent less persecution, in the shape of illegal imprisonment, social ostracism, unci defy even death itself in vindication, of constitutional principles, and to save this country front tho evils of j which you complain in your speech, you must admit were moro honest and patriotic than thoso timid and corrupt men who left our own ranks to attach themselves to tho Republican party for mere mercenary purposes. The opportunities of official favor and plun der, by means of war contracts, wcio tendered me, if I would sacrifice my political principles. I turned my back upon all such opportunities, preferring 'tho conscience void of offence, to all the honors and wealth that might bo found in a base bet rnyal of principle, and a sacfifice of consistency. Tho infamous conduct of tho Dis unionists in Congress and throughout tho country at this time is vindicating tho sagacity ot that little band at tho North, who so sternly and fearlessly oppossed the lato civil war; and is confirming the truth ol their allcga- j A "band of diabolical demons" rode tions as to the mischievous designs ofiup : dismounted ; seized him by the these confederates against tho Consti- tution and tho Union. The sober sec omi thought oi tno great mass oi tho pcopio who were so ueceivca oy tne disunion leaders, is beginning to make itself manifest. They aro rapidly dis cerning tho real character and motives of those who so previously LWtriiycd them, and are determcd to rebuke their wickedness. Tho reserve fjree of the nation is coming to tho rescue of its outraged impcrilkd Constitution. Tho time, rest assured, is not far dis tant when "tho pmifentarics will re claim their fugitives hi office, and the banditti bo scourged back to their ca verns " Men who grasp at arbitrary power, who rashly condemn the liber tics of their own race in n mad Quix otic Bchcino to give liberty to an in ferior race, aro playing a deep and dangerous stake j but the more start lingand intolerable their short pre-eminence has been, so much the more de structive will bo their Cne, bo much tho more exemplary their punishment. Lord Temple once very sagaciously remarked, '-That liberty was in many other dangers from itself, besides those which arises from formed designs of destroying it. uncof tts greatest dan gers in'vA Jrom hajxci iticil prtiences,or romantic trhemrs to restorrit on a more perfect plan." It is this hut danger that has threatened, nay, is still threatening us. It was under this hy pocruicai prciciise the late civil war was commenced and carried on to its conclusion. It was under this bold pretense that great constitutional principles wero overturned, and the liberties of men in tho Northern States struck down by tho hand of arbitrary power; and it is the same insano de lusion that would justify themad iegis- tion that to day keeps eleven States out of this Union, and is aiming to centralize tho Government. This "ro mantic scheme to restore liberty on a more perfect plan," has already torn millions of contented slaves from the care and comfort that were their's in ft state of vassalago and hustled them as vagabonds upon the community, or bunded them over to the Frecd nien'sBureau,wliose tender raeroiesare cruel. It was fortunate for tho coun- A II ll . M . try, ana ior tne intcrists ot coming generations, that all wiso rrovidcnce culled Andrew Johnson to his present exalted position. Under other an- spices ere this, tho well -..I. -f . V "1-1 ! nuiiviuuH oi vug .uaaicai leaders in Washington, would havo ripened to perfection, and the dreams of Sumner, Wilson, Wade, and Slovens have bo come frightful realities. Whaii are all our historic," -well aeked Oliver Cromwell, "but Gol manifesting h'm sclf that lio ha h shaken, tumbled down and trampled under loot what ever ho hath not planted." In tho present condition of tho executive temper we are now realizing, tho truth of this saying. Some of our Radical fur seeing divines imagined they dis cerned in tho assassination of Lincoln an interference from on bigh.by which an overruling Providence had removed a man whose temper was too mild and yiemitig ior tno crisis, to make room for one "whose little finger was heav icr than the loins of Lincoln." How vain and short frighted these specula tions 1 On tho contrary, tho way ap pears to have been cleared for Andrew Johnson, that ho might rescuo ihla nation from tho insidious designs of compromising radicalism, whose only object was, and still is, tho overthrow of republican institutions. Tho great, the absorbing i6suo now presented to tho American people, is tho restora tion of tho eleven States, kept back from all their right nnd privileges in the Union and under the Constitu tion. Like Aaron's rod it swallows up all the others. Partisan prejudices aud predictions must bo laid asido in this grave hour of tho country's danger. Patriotic men of all parties must rally to the side of the President, and defend him from tho machinations and conspiracies of tho bold bad men who now bear rule in Congress at Washington. The whole conservative strength of tho country should bo summoned to tho rescue of tho Con ttiliition,tho Union, and tho laws from the control ot a taction that appears to have adopted as their motto, 'After us, tho deluge.' Your, respectfully, James W. Wall. Piling it On. A Disunionist never lies by retail. Ho must do it as ho plundered tho Government b wholesale or not at all. Hence w e find an anonymous "Memphis" letter in a Disunion Chi cago organ, which overflows with "vividness." Tho writer saw (in fancy, of course) "an old man of color, bend ing under tho weight ot seventy sum mers ol bondage." He was "quietly eating an apple," of course theyinVi cat apples when they can get them. collar ; threw him to tho ground ; a - jkneo was placed upon his breast; the cry was raised "lv ill him, hill him;" "an Irish villain struck him in tho faco with a heavy stick ;" a second shot him in the abdomen ; a third laid a crobar over his head : a fourth ham- Mringcd him ; a fifth "butcher knelt over his prostrate form and shoved his knife in his mouth, wrenched his jaws assundcr, severed histonguo and cut it out by tho roots," and then his body was chopped to pieces with hatchets and kicked, picco meal into tho gutter. This we aro told, "was the moat hellish act of tho rioters except one." That ono was about a policeman, who chased a negro into asliantee, but not succeeding in finding his prey, ho seiz ed a little five year old "mulatto girl by tho leg: dragged her out behind the shantce, deliberately" (always de liberately) "cut her eyes out of their sockets with his pocket knifo" and then ' fired tho shanteoand threw the helpless victim in through tho win dow." Tho Disunionists have scrvod their ten and twenty years in the business of in venting "atrocities" and "harrow ing spectacles," and are by no means dabsters at the business ; though some time, as in tho foregoing, like care less painters, they do get a littlo too much ochro in their Bunscts.
