In entering upon the oampidgn about to open, tbe General in Chief feels assured that the sol- dieiB who have so long and so nobly borne the. hardships and dangers of the war, require no ex hortation to respond to the o;:l)s of honor and duty With the liber^ transmitted by Uidr forefath ers they have inherited the spirit to defend it. The oboice between war and-abjoct submission is before them. To such a proposal brave men with arms in their hands oan have but one answer. They cannot barter manhood foi^ peace, nor the right of self-government for life or property. But justice to them requires a sterner admoni* tion to those who have ab^doned their eomrades iu th^ hour peril. A hurt opportunity is offor- P.

Sinoe the days of John Paul Jones, no eom mander of •'single riiip has achieved such a re' pntation; none, even inolnding Jones, nccompUsk' ed such results as Gaptain Raphaal Semnias. Of all the rebels to whom this war has given rifte, his hand has stmck the most galline blo^ aad reaehed Ae most aenaitive parts of the Y»nkee organiwtion. Ever sinee the last war with Eac*. l^d, that modest nation has arrogated to ica^ the dominion of the deep, aod looked down with profound contempt npon pretensions to naval skill and enterprise by anybody outside of New Englaad.- A yet stronger passion was wounded by the career of Captain Semmes. Far more powerful even than Jonathaa'a lova al gkn^y her fjtdness for p If. Seujnu'S, with a ru^hleas hand, stripped tbea« of the li n's skin, and clean ed out the orib that held h s feed. It seems al* most incrediole that a oomnaercial^ marine, whieh claimed ba acoond to no other in the world, wag literally swept from tbe seas by one man io a sin gle sbip. Such a prodigy will engage the won der and admiration of posterity. It will read in the pages of history>like the labled aobievements of the demigods oi antiquity. But it ia the lit* eral tfuth} and the man who performed th» n zt to piirsculons wonder, and whose name will here after loom pp among sea kings like Himmaleh among the nionntains, is now in our ci^, as mo dest as he is heroic, as retiiing amung Irienda aa he is audacioua and unrelenting to bid adversariei. .“This mode of wariare is contrary to oux ays- tem and utterly insQff;:iable," said an old O^rman general whom Napoleon was pressing to tbe wall like an aoimated thnndtrbolt .The iigh:niog like rapidiiy of Semmes npon the seas rival ed tha^ of Nupoieun upon the .land. Of course his “m de «f warfare waa contrary to tbr (Yankee) system." Did they ever see the instructiota oi tbe fi vuiu- tionary Congress to ‘‘John Psut Jones,"Efq(see page thirty eight, of Sherburne’s Life of Panl Jones,) to “take, aink, btrn or destroy all auch of the enemy’s ships, vesseis, g ods and effects as ycu may be able”? Perhaps the off^nre of Captain Semmes consists in his violation of tbe Yaokee patent? Certain it is, Jones had no such field of opemtiooa as Semmes. No eea wv* s.l^e from him. From tbe coast of the United Sutea to the Caps Good H^pe there was not a wave (hat Ameiieaa commerce waa soBure oa. The dreidtul pirate seemed ubiquitouB. The Flying Dutohmu B«ver caused moie apprehenaion among rapsrstitioniB marines. He laughed to scorn efforts of the whole United States navy to overtake him, thoi^ he made his path across the ocean as light aa noonday by the blase of burning abips He might have eeotped, finally, if he had not ch !sen to fight a vessel vastly the anperior of his swift, but gile, bark; and then ha buried her beoeatli the waves, and she W6nt down to her grand mauso leum unprofitned by a conqnerer's footstep, with her mi sion accemplished, and the whole •om- mero^ marine ot the United diatea vaaiiked like fne fog ot the merotng.
