be quartered in their bounty lands on the plantations of our citizens? "Besides, these lands grow the great staples, and the staple of cotton primarily. It will be a political necessity with our enemies to place the cultivation of cotton in the keeping of themselves, and out of the hands of those who have been rebels. But while the Yankee soldiers are thus pensioned and supplied with his bounty land, what is to become of our own heroic soldiers? The few, but undismayed — the braves of Lee's noble army — the self-sacrificing, enduring veterans, who have planted so often the battle-flag of the Confederacy on the enemy's ramparts, amid the shouts of victory — of those whose limbs have been torn asunder, the blind and crippled, who cannot earn a support, and the wives and little ones, who have fallen in the war? Why, in the day that our banners are lowered — in the day that our Confederacy is lost — the doom of our soldiers will be written. They will be turned adritt. No hom
Cromwell (search for this): article 1
f Austria to Hungary, and of Russia to Poland, are benevolent and merciful compared to those of the Yankee Government to the Southern States. In none of these examples were so many base and cruel appetites enlisted as in this contest. It is not alone the lust of power, the greed of gain, and the madness of fanaticism — added to all these are the devilish passions of envy and revenge, the infernal spirit of the French Revolution, combined with the ambition of the Czar and the fanaticism of Cromwell. Neither Hungary, Poland, India, no Ireland, have ever suffered as this people will be made to suffer when the foot of the Yankee tyrant is on the necks of the--"first families. " That will be the sweetest draught — the conqueror will quaff in all that mingled goblet of blood and subjugation. The utter degradation of those whom they represent as the aristocrats will be milk and honey to their souls. It matters not that in no land under Heaven is there as much real republicanism as in

It matters not that in no land under Heaven is there as much real republicanism as in the Confederate States. Our enemies are enraged by that decree of Providence which has assigned to the Southern people such a goodly heritage; they feel the malign influences which steal over ignoble natures when they come in contact with superior manhood. Whatwere they disposed to be tolerant and merciful, the necessities of their position would present difficulties which it would be impossible to surmount. Our own debt, State and Confederate, would be wholly repudiated. The enormous debt of the United States, three thousand millions of dollars,--owed by the Northern people — owed to them — whose pockets will that come out of? A contemporary, the Confederate, supposes this case: Two candidates in Yankee States present themselves for popular suffr

McClellan (search for this): article 2
l seats he finds in the illuminated columns of an auctioneer's advertisement: commodious mansion, productive grounds, orchards of apple and peach, never-failing springs, oak groves, salubrious atmosphere, and a refined and intelligent neighborhood. Ah! here is a Paradise. The terms moderate! "What a fool the owner is to sell out! Going into the army, I suppose." Well, here Mr. Snooks will retire from war's alarms, dusty streets and muddy hydrant water. No high prices, no city taxes, no McClellan and Grant deepening the blue of the horizon and shelling you like an oyster. There Snooks will cut his own wood, and raise his own bacon. A green oasis in the desert; and the proprietor greener still to part for a small sum with such an Eden. Alas, for the vanity of human expectations. Snooks has scarcely begun to enjoy his new possessions, and is, perhaps, some calm, moonlight night, sitting on his porch and contemplating the beauties of nature, pitying, from the bottom of his soul, t
