ick soldiers for the Confederacy, some get up subscriptions for rebel gunboats. Perhaps it may all be comprised in the phrase, "where there is a will there is away. " Now, then, you could "support, protect and defend the Union," by teaching the scholars of your school to love and reverence the Government, to be proud of their country, to glory in its flag, and to be true to its Constitution. But, as you don't understand that yourself, you can't teach it to them; and, therefore, I am glad to learn from your letter that your school has been closed since Christmas, and with my consent, until you change your sentiments and are a loyal woman in heart, it never shall be opened. I would advise you, madam, forthwith to go where your "sympathies" are. I am only doubtful whether it is my duty to send you. I have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant, B. F. Butler, Major General Commanding. To Mrs. Mary L. Graves, Locustville, Accomac county, Virginia.
