I^The apeotaolo presented at this moment by the people
of the Confederate States is certainly one of the most
wonderful recorded in the history of »ny peop!o Not only
have they for threb long and biaer years maintaiued a
war upon a aoale of m»goiiude hitherto unknown, in
which their blood haa poured out in torreutu lind their
property been plundered and wantonly destroyed by thu
enemy to the amount of huudreds of mitlioRs, uut they
are now quietly and even eheerfuUy submitting to a t»x
equal to an average of «bout one fourth of all tUeir pro
perty iu a dingle year A people who formerly regard
ed a tax oi i'Ue ptr oent. upon a portion of their poa
■easiona aa a heavy burden, now hesitate uoi to give
twenty five per oent. upon ihe whole. Nothing oould
more clearly ntanifeM the depth of their deieriaina
tion to be free from yankee ruli*, of their eeuse of the
utter depravity of their Ute brethren, and of the oer-
talnty of the loss of all they po^ieest if they should hes
itate to give a part fur defence. The people Uemauded
to be taxed, aud taeir Kepreseaiatives oaJ the Beube
and the nerve to ordaiu It, aud tnough, as might baT«
been expected lu a meujiure so uovel, the taxes are uot
equal upon all ciaasee ulikf*. ihrre id uuitiier remstauve

feel that Oongrtss did in the main what was neoedtiary
aud right, and they upau whom the burdt-u beuiv luotst
heavily shoulder it quietly for the sake of the great
oausY—for the sake of tbeir property, their freedom
ukd their lives, as well as for the sake «f posterity. U
is a wonderful spectac'e, ^ glorious epectacle, which
will shine upon the p*ges of History to the honor of
this people, as long as a spitrk of patriotism shall re
main unextingolshed iu man. Who can doubt the tri-
oinph of a peddle who cheerfully wake such a sacrificeT
If they doubted or despaired, they would endeavor to
withhold their substanoe Confident aud determined,
they 1.1*3 it- And with tiod's blessing, thejf will have
their reward The bread thus oast upon the waters
will in due time return to them.
BcTi.Ba.—We are surpri^eU to find in several ol the
iiiokBond papers aaaertions that toe Confederate gov-
erament is about to back out from the determination to
hold no intercourse in regard to the exchange of prison
ers, or other matters, with ttie outlMr Butler. We trust
that theee are mere suspicions, and that the govern-
mem will do no suoh thing, but will firmly maintain
the just ground upon which it plnced the ‘'Beaat His
outragea were so airociouB as to call for a special Pro
elamatioB of outlawry from President Davie That
proclamation hae never been recalled of revoked. It
was justified by the man’s acts, and sanctioned by the
public opinion of the civibxed world. Whilst it remains
uorevokel, it would be dishonorable, we think, to recofr-
a'lM him in any capacity. And inis would surprise the
puCiUo the more because the yankee governiiient itself
backed out from ita attempt |o force him upon ua in the
matter of exchangafl. Our government stood firm, ap
parently, in the determination to have nothing to do
with him. The yankees stoppad the exchange for a
few weeks, but then recommenced it through another
officer who is unobjectionable Why there should be
any thought alter that of giving way, we cannot
oonoeive. The Praaident has ■ the reputation of be- -
ing firm to the utmost degree of obatinaoy. Let him show
it in this matter at leaat, and yield in soioethiug else,
if ho will.
Qm. hloaaait.— We regret to find in the papers vari
ous reporta in regard to the position of this gallant offi
cer, whose deeds and sutieringa have made him so deci
dedly « popular favorite. One report was that he had
reaigsed, and though this was not ooafirmed it led to
fears that he had felt hims^f wronged. Then, instead
of hearing that he was in the saddle and in pursuit of
the foe at the head of his gallant brigade, we find him
retoming unexpectedly to Richmond. And now we
leam that he has gone back to his men soured and de
prived of the better part of hia commaad. At this pre
sent writing wf have seen but one statement of the eir-
oamatanoes, and that in the Richmond Examiuer, which
u so janndioad by dislike of the Confederate Adminis-
Tration that its views must be taken with caution. Its
statement is, in aubstance, that he has been treated
with injuatioe aad jealousy; that two of hia regiments
have been taken from his brigade and given to a Col
Cirigsby, who only had 73 men, for the purpose of enti
tling the latter to a Brigadier Generalship, leaving Mor
gan not over 500 men Morgan’s men were enlisted by
himself, within the enemy’s lines in Kentucky, Irhen
there was nothing to compel them to enter our service.
In this way he is said to have raised 3000 men, and
might have raised three or four times as many, but that
the government claimed that his recruits should be
lurned over to Kirby Smith It is said that every offi
cer and man of the two regiments that have been sepa
rated from Morgan have p'Olea/ed against tne action of
the Uovemment, and signed a petition to be restored to
their old command. He took their petition to Kichmond
to enforce its justice, but not only was denied, but even
treated with incivility. He did not resent this by re
signing, but haa gone back to his small command, d(-
tenained to renJer wUat service be oiku
BUeh is the Examiner’s statement. We supdoro «>>••
n counter statement will be made. Everybody will hope
that it may be such as^to leave no stigma upon either
the General or the government. j
Gi». Ctr»(niAN.—This officer publishes a letter in |
ihe Raleigh Confederate, contradicting a report that he
would be • candidate for Governor. He says, that as
long as the war continues, while able to do military du
ty, he does not intend to leave the fie’d for any civil
nation. He eays further, that,-^

YANKEE VIEWS OF THK WAR
In a recent speech in the yankee Con|tress, Mr. Allen
of Illinois made the following additions to the intamous
record of Butler, “the Beaat”:—
The robberies under flie reigu of Butler at New
Orleans have been so palpable aa to shock the »ea>-
sibilities of mankind. No prize was too great, no
indaeement too uuall for hi» enterprise. From
the State capitol to the grave yard, froui the par
lor to the kitchen, his grasping hand was extend
ed. All aocouDts agree that thing* have been
done at New Orleans under the flag of our conn-
try which if not disavowed will disgrace the Gov
ernment in all coming time. 1 will mention one
instance, as it was published in the New Orleans
-^ra. That paper is the organ of the Administra
tion there—the moKt of its articles are headed
“by authority." I will read the Krn^s report.
It is'in the fol lowing words; ,
Con fixation of Tombtlontt —There was one splen
did monument—a stately oo'ucan or pyramid, intended
to mark the spot where reel the remains of Colonel
Charles D Drtux, the yCiithtut orator who fell early in
the war in ormmatd ot a Coufcderate battKlii.u. This
Was constructed ai a Cost uf fifteen hundred dollars, and
uuder tbc bairmer of tb» auctionetr it brought buk on-o
hundred tinllars. Cheap uionum«ut, if the purchaser
iot'-cded ii for 'ie own tomb Tt>.-re was another
OoQUDicr.t ei4i.'al ii, size itnd beauty, which brought
only ihjriy doli.irs. Tcmbetones euld as oheap as
marble.”
Tho whole world is iamiliar with the plunder
ol costly tuansionti aud large estates, with rob
beries ol uhurohesaud public institutions. From
these we turn to the public' .'lale ol a dcttd man’s
tomb Ntouu. NotbiDg seemed too h’gh or low
for tlie robber’s grai>p The result is that, in
stead oi‘ a restoration of law and order, the eouu-
try ecuupicd by our a*iuie.s lia« iu many instances
been given over lo pillage and plunder; and th^
wlm vmtehed the approach ol our i»ronti >>•■*
as the harbinger oi peace, look uow only upon a
ruined country and a pillaged people, 'fbc just
and uousiderate portion ol’ our people will remem
ber the barbaVitieh, the nhamclesa robberit;.s ol
this ‘man who so suddenly ro^e I'roui the runks ol
his original .seeeosion Iritudd to the grade ol ma
jor general of voluatecr;j; i.or will they forget
thut iiih lame rests more upoti his persecutious ot
the unarmed aud unotieiiding than the terror ho
has caused among the rebel.s in the tield. It ia
now nearly three years !>iiioe he donned the Fed
eral uniform. During that rime he ban planned
Big Bethel aud otbtr siuiilai disasters; but he
has never, 1 believe, been iu personal danger, or
a party to the most unimportant skirmish, al-
thmigh by alleged violations of the laws of civili
zed warlare he has won lor himself the outlawry
of our enemies. This has been his chiol military
distinction; and now, alter a» year ol repose in
New Kngland, we tind him appointed to an im-
portaut command in Virginia and Nortli C«rolina.
With a cruelty .quickened by public exposure,
with his avarice stimulated by the succc.hs of for
mer pillaging, aud with a slavish subserviepcy to
tliose whose motives ^ denouuced for many
years ot his life, he is turned loo^c upon a re-
belliooh people, who whatever their sinir may be,
are at least sincere in regarding him as a mon
ster. Aud when a few days- ago a m«^inber from

Mr. Allen sprnks forcibly of the iaimense expciidi

There is a point of endurance beyoud which
even nations caunot go—a precipice which they

Thou’lt hover around thy earth band;
Tbou’lt sing to them gently of the beautiful thiagtt
Thou hast found in the heavenly land.
Thou ifiU come when their little knees beuUelh in prayer..
When the childish lips oall thy sweet name.
Thou wilt come from thy cloud home, and with them

And be their dear mother tho same
Thou wilt come when thy stricken one plaosth hie baud
On the heads of the treasures God .gave;
Then Mary wlllvome from Paradise land.
And tell them that i’hrist died to save.
