falling tears glisten like bright dew-drops in the sunshine. Eloquent and exalted as he was in intellect, Sargent S. Prentiss was as genial and chivalric as he was gifted and great. No Southern man born was more completely Southern in all his instincts, sentiments, and principles. Like Nathaniel Green, of Rhode Island, who, next to Gen. Washington, was the great captain of the Revolution; like Quitman, of New York, who planted the victorious American standard on the walls of Mexico, like Ripley, of Fort Moultrie, and thousands like them, who have made the South their permanent home, Prentiss was as true and loyal to the South as any of her native-born sons; far more so than the Crittendens, Guthries, Carliles, and others, who are simply Northern men, born in a Southern latitude. If that brilliant intellectual comet, S. S. Prentiss, originated in a Northern sky, his path of light was always loyal to the Southern sun, and when in its mid-heaven it disappeared, the Southern sky grew

But there is another Prentice, also of New England, editor of the Louisville Journal, who has made himself conspicuous throughout the sectional difficulties of the United States by advocating New England ideas, prejudices, principles and notions, and who is, in his own persos been, is now, and always will be, till its editor is resolved into his original mire. As Sargent S. Prentiss in his ardent and sympathizing loyalty was the type, we firmly believe, of large numbers of Southern citizens of Northern birth, George D. Prentice is the representative of another class, who are thoroughly imbued with the idea that Boston is the Athens of America, and New York the hub of the Universe, that the Pilgrim Fathers were equal, if not superior, to the Apostles; that there is

With its accustomed good sense and forbearance, the South has tolerated the disgusting assurance and self conceit of, these Yankee cockneys, as a harmless exhibition of human folly, not deserving the dignity even of contempt. But when such a representative of this class as Geo. D. Prentice labors for long years, through a leading Southern journal, to convert a proud Southern State, like Kentucky, into a miserable copy of Massachusetts in politics, manners and morals, is it not enough to make the Kentucky patriarchs of a better age rise from their graves and look with awful frowns upon the degenerate race which can permit this vulgar and impudent Yankee interloper to dictate to Kentucky her national policy; to call away Kentucky from her Southern sisterhood; to bid

It is bad enough, in all conscience, for the native political demagogues of Kentucky to be hounding her on in such a work; but does it not transcend all human patience that the chief agent of this work should be a Down-East Yankee, not entitled, to consideration in manners, sentiments, or even the Irishman's requirement of a gentleman--"that he change his shirt once a week?" Alas, poor Kentucky! To think that such a grand old State should die of an unclean Yankee! To think that the spirit which once controlled Kentucky has been supplanted by the spirit of very inferior distillation which controls the Louisville Journal! To think that the Louisville Journal should govern Kentucky, and bad liquor the Louisville
