Yes, there have been two, exclusive of those offered by Russia, who does not transport "beyond the seas," but merely exiles to Siberia; and both of these were afforded by the only peopSiberia; and both of these were afforded by the only people on earth who have an interest in the promises of Scripture — the only people who have a right by prescription to the Kingdom of Heaven.

We mean the example of Russia. Alexander II. is at this moment sending thousands of unhappy Poles to Siberia every week. He is following closely in Siberia every week. He is following closely in the footsteps of his father, and will, if he can, depopulate Poland to fill it up with beastly Russians. That is precisely what the Yankee Government designs to do in the South. It means to deport all the white population, and supply its place wit

ficers," he writes, "were all knocked on the head." Observe the beauty and force of the expression, borrowed from the shambles, where butchers are wont to "knock their victims on the head."--"and every tenth man killed, and the rest shipped for Barbadoes." "The soldiers in the other towers were all spared as to their lives only, as they were shipped, likewise, to Barbadoes." "I believe," he adds, "all the friars were knocked on the head promiscuously, except two. The one of whom was Father PetBarbadoes." "I believe," he adds, "all the friars were knocked on the head promiscuously, except two. The one of whom was Father Peter Taaf, brother to the Lord Taat, whom our men took the next day and made an end of." The other was murdered finally, and infants and women out of number. At Wextord three hundred of the latter, many of them carrying their children in their arms, fled to the great Cross of the Market, vainly imagining that the sacred emblem of Christianity would protect them. Their godly persecutors only shouted some sentence about hewing Agag to pieces, and murdered them and their babes, every one. Standin

and reduced to starvation by the thieves whom his rulers presume to call soldiers, by threatening to transport them beyond the seas! We say threatening, for it is a threat, between the pronouncing and the execution of which nothing interposes but the "interest" of the Yankee nation. There cannot be a doubt that had the Yankee Government the power to execute this threat, it would be forthwith put into execution. Did not these Yankee puritans, just a century ago, deport the whole people of Acadia, and are their descendants any better than they were? But there is a more modern example for the Yankees, and one which they will be sure to imitate if we are ever so weak or so cowardly as to put it into their power. We mean the example of Russia. Alexander II. is at this moment sending thousands of unhappy Poles to Siberia every week.

That is precisely what the Yankee Government designs to do in the South. It means to deport all the white population, and supply its place with negroes, or, what is infinitely worse, with Yankees. They have immense territories — deserts and prairies — which they would gladly fill up, but which are so uninviting as to forbid the idea of their ever being voluntarily settled. To these deserts--thousands of miles off — will be sent the whole Southern popu<
Arkansas (Arkansas, United States) (search for this): article 1
The Executive departments. On Thursday last, it will be recollected, Mr. Johnson, of Arkansas, introduced into the Senate a bill to limit and define the term of the Secretary, or the principal officers of each Executive Department. It provides that the term of office of the above named officers be the same as that of a member of the House of Representatives, and expire at the end of each session of Congress, but that the same officer or person may be renominated or appointed for a number of terms. We have rarely had the fortune to come across a more objectionable proposition. Mr. Johnson said, on submitting this bill, that its constitutionality was beyond question. We doubt it exceedingly. The Constitution divides the Government into three grand departments — Legislative, Judicial, and Executive. It confers upon each certain powers, necessary to the discharge of their several functions. It gives to the Executive the power of appointing the heads of departments, with th

murdered in cold blood after they had ceased to resist — nay, that very many of them were citizens of the town, and had not been engaged in the battle at all. Men, women, and children were slaughtered promiscuously, and without remorse, by this Puritan saint, who had received a commission to turn the earth into a hell, and who, entirely released from all obedience to earthly tribunals, obeyed only the "higher law." One fortress submitted without firing a gun, and the saint was satisfied, murdeem. Their godly persecutors only shouted some sentence about hewing Agag to pieces, and murdered them and their babes, every one. Standing up to his knees in the blood of these poor helpless creatures, the chosen man of God--the great ideal of Puritan perfection — wrote to the Parliament describing these horrible murders "as righteous judgements of Heaven," "as to which it is right that God shall have all the glory." Called over to England to assist in the ceremony of trying and murdering Cha

Four shells were thrown into the city between two and three o'clock this afternoon, but no one was injured. Thirteen Yankee prisoners, including three commissioned officers of the United States brig Perry, captured at Merrill Inlet by the 21st Georgia cavalry, have arrived here and been committed to jail.

[third Dispatch.] Charleston, Dec. 14. --No firing to-day, and nothing unusual, except that we have one monitor less to fight. An official dispatch from Gen. Walker, at Pocataligo, dated the 14th, says the Yankee paper, the Free South, published at Beaufort, received by flag of truce, contains a report of the sinking of the monitor Wehawken in a gale off Charleston harbor on Monday, Dec. 7.--Twenty-eight lives were lost
