d, and stay at home; but where is the poor man to obtain the cash to pay his penalty in this present time of business ruin? He must go to war, and there is no discharge except by death. In a few days comes upon us the Assessor appointed by Abraham Lincoln, from whose assessment there is no appeal; soon upon his heels comes the United States Collector, also appointed by Mr. Lincoln, and the war tax must be paid forthwith--$463,000 is the sum taxed upon Connecticut for the war. About $1,00Mr. Lincoln, and the war tax must be paid forthwith--$463,000 is the sum taxed upon Connecticut for the war. About $1,000,000 have already been borrowed by this State, to pay and equip our five regiments. Our snug State fund of near $500,000, well invested in bank stocks, has been spent, and more than double that amount already incurred and demanded. For the first time in the history of our little State, have Connecticut bonds been hawked about the country, and yet the war has just commenced.

Such men may err; may be eccentric; may be inconsistent, but they can never be deliberately false.--The greater the strain upon their good faith and honesty, the more firmly and gal

We do not remember that Mr. Lincoln and his friends have ever been as a lted by the consummated." So, on the strength of that fear, President Lincoln did venture to defend Fort Sumter? The thng and complete as it is. One argument upon which Mr. Lincoln and his friends appear strongly to rely is, that e Legislatures or of a National Convention. Yes, Mr. Lincoln makes the astounding assertion that no State can the sublime and the proverbial trifle beyond. If Mr. Lincoln had read the history of Virginia to himself he woal bungling through all its intricacies for while Mr. Lincoln is uttering for each State this broad and unqualisely what the seceding States proclaim.
