e Revolution itself established it. George Third denied the right, whether supported or not supported by cause; and Lincoln, at the bidding of Seward, blindly adopts his language and his doctrines in all their untenable and long-repudiated latitude. But, fortunately for the South, she has a champion for her cause no less renowned and redoubtable than Lincoln himself. Lincoln non-President must be considered a sounder exponent of doctrines affecting the Presidential prerogative than LinLincoln non-President must be considered a sounder exponent of doctrines affecting the Presidential prerogative than Lincoln President.

While a member of Congress from Illinois, this illustrious philosopher did declare, in a speech published in the Appendix to the Congressional Globe, for the first session of the Thirtieth Congress, page 94, for the right of Secession, in the most unqualified terms. His language was thus positive and emphatic: "Any people, anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up and shake off the existing Government, and form a new one that suits them be
, commercial honesty, good fellowship between neighbors, no intelligent and candid man will for a moment contest the superiority of the South. We dismiss altogether the difference of manners — the genial, refined deportment of Southern men in general, and the coarse, abrupt, unfeeling style which has become so general in Northern society that a man of sensibility and geniality among them is regarded as little better than a fool. Think of a people who can deliberately elect such a swine as Lincoln President of the United States, whose beau ideal of a gentleman is Summer, of Massachusetts, and whose model of a hero, Benjamin F. Butler, of Old Point! Rebellion against them! It is the rebellion of a civilized stomach against pork and molasses, Withersfield onions and Massachusetts cod! There is a practical idea, however, connected with this slang about Southern rebels which lies at the foundation of this infamous war. It is that the Southern States belong to the North; that they
Federal movements in Missouri. St. Louis, July 9 --Two Illinois Federal Regiments have left for the interior. Gen. Lyon is within two days march of Booneville. He is South of that point. His Federal force, on their march, surrounded a town and compelled everybody to take Lincoln's of allegiance.
when Dionysius destroyed the greatness of his empire. This element disintegrated the glorious fabric of Rome's greatness when Nero tyrannized to its fall. Thus it was when Napoleon transcended the license of reason, and in a single decade deposed five monarchs, enthroned eight, and dictated terms to nations about whose venerated capitols ivy of a thousand years clustered. Thus it was that George III. in a seven years fit of lunacy, endeavored to make the beautiful vestments of liberty and cerements with which to enwrap her in a tomb. It is in obedience to a madness of tyranny, that the new era of war is upon us. Nations ever must disintegrate when they become loath-some and effete, and to the empire of the West the day of doom has come; the scepter of its iron power is broken. The willing despot and tool of a Machiavellian premier, a peculating war secretary, and a vain renegade war chieftain, will descend to the tomb of the accursed, his epitaph: Lincoln, The Tyrant!
Enterprise. --The Memphis Appeal published Lincoln's Message in full, on Saturday last, having received the extraordinary document by telegraph. It was an enterprising performance, yet we think the value of the thing hardly justified the expenditure. The Memphis Argus brought out the Message with large black lines on either side, to indicate its piratical character, we presume, rather than to dress it in the garb of mourning.
Lincoln's War Policy. Washington, July 9. --A joint resolution will soon be introduced, legalizing President Lincoln's acts. The pay of privates in the army is to be increased, and the general expenditures of the Government are to be reduced. Lincoln's War Policy.

One of Lincoln's Majors. --Mr. Charles Haynes, editor of the Cahawba Gazette, is good at reminiscences. He brings to light the following incident in the Georgia career of Ben. Perely Poor, who is now the Major of the 2d Massachusetts Regiment. We make a single extract from friend Haynes' article, premising that the scene occurred in 1839: We will commence by saying that we resided at Milledgeville whilst Poors edited the Athens Whig, but he used to visit our city once or twice every year, and we happened to form a slight acquaintance with him. On one of these visits he was accompanied by his father, a gold- spectacled, impertinent sort of middle-aged man. There were not many railroads in those days, so people had to travel mostly in stage coaches. Poors and his father remained in Milledgeville several days and were to leave in the stage on a certain day. At the appointed time, Poore, junior, took his seat, but Poore, senior, was not on hand. The driver, whose name
traveled through the counties of Alleghany, Craig, Monroe and Greenbrier, and was informed that from these counties they had sent some very fine companies to the seat of war, while others are now forming and will soon be ready to march to aid in establishing our liberty and independence. Of one thing you may be certain, that the people of this section are thoroughly aroused, and not only ready, but willing to do their duty in this great conflict. All they require is an opportunity to show Lincoln's hirelings how skillfully they can use their favorite and trusty rifles. Two very substantially equipped companies, the "Invincible" from Pittsylvania, and the "Guards" from Appomattox, numbering in all about two hundred men, under command of Capts. Watson and Talbot, arrived here on the morning of the 4th and pitched their tents for the night. They took up a line of march the following morning for Lewisburg, on their way to join Wise's Legion. The University Volunteers, Captain Cra
