Y., •I CIURISTJIAS DAY, 1861. . DEAR SIR:: i Would you believe it? In this noble (ink m y there actually are en . / —aye, and mimeo too—who manifestly, sympathize! much More with the Southern rebellionistls than -with the majority of the nationl • -This seems to arise from two principal causes : First, those in the re hellion, neary or quite• to a wan, votedl the so•called Democratic tieket in 1860. Second, tlic. prejudices of these against the negro race are as inveterate as they are unreasonable.. It:is seen- that if the natioual ',kcesshould overcome The rebel forces, the Slaves must, in all probability, become free, since nearly all the 'slaves 'are held:bY 'rebels, who by their treason , able eonduct forfeit their claim to . Their entire properky; and liucleSain can' not be a slaye4uaster, and ,hold them • nor' can the, old gentleman well. turn ;faired dearer, and Nell them ; they therefore seem altogether ikely to gain their freedoen— an event w licit the sympathizers in Men tion have eeif accustomed to consider as the greatest calaMity that could befall us. Hence, although fur obvious reasons, the wish that the South may succeed is not openly expressed, just now, the Let that such a wish is !lathered, is abundantly manifest. I It is as plain as day, according to these Worthies, that the sayings and doings of a few at the North, have been the sole cause of the rebellion. Slavery is not the cause—no; not by any means Ante ,Clavery ha 4 brought the whole thin; upon us. The ;North, not the South, has plunged th l e country into war. This puts use in mind of a little incident which oc curred in ii farmer's kitchen where, about a year ago; I was stopping for the night. It was la snowy, squally time. The farmer and his wife, five or six children, a dog, aiitila cat, composed the household, and were idlgatilered into the room afore said for thy: evening.. The 'dog was an andahle-bUL active specimen of the shep herdbreed, two or three years out of his puppy-1164 The cat was an old tabby that I IvaSl told had been in the family "ever since the winter that Rachel , was' a baby." I The cat, •was reposing on . a lounge at tl;`e South side of the room ; but if she slept, it was — in "eat naps ;" for whenever !the' dug: presumed to move) about at all, aed not lie quietly in a ear- tier, she would set uP•sitelia caterwauling as, when taken along with the woman's talk Aok i puppy, and the man's com mands to the dog, was quite sulfteieet to prevent aiii:thing else 'from being heard. Fur if yea suppose that they blamed the cat at all, or attempted to stop her noise in any other way than by scolding the dug, and einr.pelling, him to lie down :Taira in this or that corner furtherest front the south side, of the room, you are greatly mistaken.; I could not but think that they put 6,e blame upon the wrong one —that not the north side, Tray, but the south side, Tabby, was the culpable par ty; but, of eourtie, I said nothing. 1 do, not keep qtlite silent, however, in relation' M the cause of the. present war ; • nor do I intend to. , I N.
