A secession Dodge.--The Albany Atlas and Argus prints the following:

We do not know how the people of Maine will regard this invasion of their soil; but we do not believe that a British regiment could ever find its way to Canada, if it landed in New-York, and sought to pass through this State.

It is by such pieces of idiotic rant that the Atlas and Argus seeks to aid the rebellion. Debarred from serving the secession cause directly, it now bends its [66] efforts to doing it indirect service by misinterpreting every act and traducing every measure of the Government. If, however, the readers of that journal can be influenced by any such pitiful stuff as this, it simply shows they are as much of fools as it is assumed they were when the writer ventured to pen such nonsense.
