t us examine ourselves, gentlemen, and females, too, that we may arraign the gallant ones at the shrine of public suffering Mr. Lincoln or the Republicans dissolve in Union? No. Who, then, are to blame. Men, who in themselves were capable of averting the storm and yet cried there was no help for the South--no escape from separation. You know the clamor has been raised to the non-slaveholding States would amendment Constitution so as to legislate upon the unjust of slavery. On the 29th of December South Carolina passed an Ordinance of Secession, took Fort Moultrie, and the revolutions commensed. Soon after South Carolina were out, seven other States followed. Their amendment was that the free States would interfere with their peculiar institution by legislation. By the withdrawal of these States, the North had over three-fourths of the votes in Congress, and consequently had the power to legislate. Having the power, did they so amend the Constitution? No, they did not. Th
the institution of slavery been invaded? Can any one tell? (Here Gov. Johnson alluded to the fact, that he and others, who had determined to stand firm by the principles of self-government, had been denominated as traitors, and read the constitutional definition of treason.) If continued he, it be treason to stand by one's country, I am here to-day a traitor in your presence. I was making the inquiry. Why all this? I direct your attention to some facts in our history. In the fall of 1860 you remember the memorable contest for the Presidency. Three candidates were put before the people — Bell, Breckinridge, and Douglas. A fourth was nominated--Mr. Lincoln, but he had no ticket in this State. I ask of Mr. Bell's friends, what position do you take? "The Union, the Constitution, and the enforcement of the laws." What did the Douglad men propose for your approval?--the Union, the Constitution, and the enforcement of the law. How did Breckinridge stand?--the same. I voted for
parties and former associations and see the question as it is. I tell you, the slavery question has been made the pretext for breaking up this Government. In 1862 an attempt was made to break up the Government, and I well remember to have heard read, by a man named Russell, while seated on my shop board in that memorable yeaur manhood, acknowledge the error of your purposes, and resolve to support the United States Govern- ment of greatest and best fabrication of God and men. In 1862 (the year of nullification) Jackson wrote a letter to Mr. Crawford, of Georgia. I invite our attention to it. What did he say? "There existed an effort to break , and heard him exclaim with that extraordinary finger elevated, "by the eternal, the Union, and shall be preserved!" Tariff was the pretext for disunion in 1862 and the slavery or negro question is the pretext now. How do the facts stand which come to examine them? Let us go back to the proceedings of the last Congress.

eclined, on behalf of the Government, the presents tendered, on the ground that they could not be conveniently made available; and he trusted the Government would not be reduced to the straits of resorting to that mode of raising means. We refer to these answers of the Secretary of the Treasury as applicable to the proposition of the devoted ladies of Mississippi, whose generous and patriotic offer we present, as a noble example of the spirit of our Southern women. Tupelo, Miss, March 29, 1862. Mr. Editor: --A number of ladies in the eastern part of Pontotoc. Mississippi, have recently united and formed what is called the Coronach Soldiers'. Aid Society. At jewelry, their gold and silver plate, to the Confederacy, and to make an earnest appeal to all the ladies in our country to do the same, for the purpose of purchasing or assisting to purchase a navy for the Confederacy.

Confederate Congress.first session. Senate. Wednesday, April 9, 1862. Mr. Barnwell, from the Finance Committee, reported back House bill to authorize the advance of certain sums of money to the State of Missouri, with recommendation favorable to its passage. Mr. Barnwell explained that the bill was an amendment to a law of the Provisional Congress, appropriating one million of dollars to the State of Missouri, for the payment of her State troops for services rendered before they were received into the Confederate States. The State of Missouri had appointed an agent to negotiate the loan from the Confederate States Treasury, upon her bonds, as directed by the State Legislature. These bonds were to be in sums of $500 each, with coupons; but, when the agent came here he had only been able to have about $400,000 worth in sums of $500 each, struck off in New Orleans — consequently he proposed to pay the sum of $400,000 in $500 bonds to the Secretary, and give one large

From the Federal capital. From a Northern paper of April 2d we copy the following Washington correspondence: Action of the House on the Tax bill. The House spent most of the day to-day in considering the Tax Bill, which is pushed vigorously by the Committee of Ways and Means. Many members have but little relish for this important work, and the House dwindles rapidly below a quorum. A call of the House was made this afternoon, and all sorts of excuses were made by members for absenting themselves. One was called off by his wife, another "by the telegraph," another by important personal business, another "was excessively hungry," &c. Mr. Stevens is obliged to crack the parliamentary whip vigorously over the team to keep them in the traces. Pending the section taxing spirits the following was finally adopted as a substitutes for the section reported by the Committee of Ways and Means: On spirits mixed with other liquors or material, or prepared in any way to be sold a
