.14;
The persons who have for the moment
ceased to weep over the disturbance of their
“southern trade,” and are now holding what
are called peace meetings in some parts of
the country, belong to that class which has
always boasted of being eminently “practi-
cal.” They arc the men who have habitual-
ly accused every man of principle in the na-
tion of being impractical, visionary, liicorcti.
cal, fanatical. They have claimed for them-
selves every political virtue, and they have
constantly put at. the head of the list the vir-
tue of being pro-eminently and above all
things practical.
And now_ they cry out for peace. Let us
examine this my, and see how practical it is.
A bandofconspirators avenge a political
defeat by rebelling against the constitutional
government of the nation. They deliberate-
ly refuse all measures of conciliation ; by dex-
temps lying set one part of the people
against the other; arm their followers; and
without the slightest occasion commence
war upon a government which was concilia-
tory to that point where it became contemp-
tibie. After robbing the nation of arms,
forts. mints, custom houses, revenue, and all
the money they could lay their hands on,
these traitors march upon the capitol and be-
’ siege it,witli the declared intention of driving
the government out,& after destroying Wash-
ington, to march upon Philadelphia and New
York. They openly ground their hopes of
success upon their belief that the nation is
composed of traitors and cowards, the former
ready to raise their standard, and the latter
equally ready to submit to their demands.
This is the situation—and now, when this
truculcnt enemy of the Union has repulsed
our troops in their first battle, here comes the
“practical” men to ask for peace.
In the first place, to make peace, as to
make war, needs the consent of two parties.
But we have yet to hear the first request for
peace from the insurgents. All their cry is
war; and however freely our “practical”
men may cry peace at the North, the slight-
est whisper of the word at the South would
quickly bring them to a halter. It seems to
us that before they urge peace upon the na-
tion, they should first ascertain whether the
enemy cares to negotiate.
The Union forces have just suffered a de-
feat. Our soldiers are taunted with coward-
ice, and the ruflians of the south are more
than ever convinced that “Yankee mudsilis”
are really poltroons and weaklings. The in-
surgents are inflated with a show of success;
the enemy Sings doggerel songs of triumph;
and our “practical” incu choose this auspi-
cious moment to set up a cry for peace. If
they were not so eminently practical, we
should think them fools. If they did not so
loudly profess their patriotism we should
even believe them cunning traitors in the
pay of the enemy, and acting under his in-
structions.
But let us suppose their wishes granted.—
The government, inspired by these practical
men, sends a delegation to the camp of Mr.
J efiei'son Davis to sue for peace. The insur-
gent chief beholds in the person of these
commissioners twenty millions of people ly-
ing at his feet. He has beaten us in one in-
significant battle; he has ruined himself to
raise an imposing army—imposing in more
senses than one; and with open or secret en-
mics in every state from which he has drawn
recruits, with the seeds of disorganization in
his own counsels, with no means, either~to
conciliate his politicians or feed and clothe
his army, he beholds himself master, after a
campaign which it is a mockery to call so,
of a people which has long boasted itself the
richest, the freest, the most intelligent and
the bravest nation in the world.
Everybody knows that Mr. Jefferson Da-
vis is a high-minded, pure, unselfish patriot.
In fact he has been compared, several times,
to Washington—and sometimes even to
Washington’s disadvantage. Nevertheless,
Mr. Davis is human, and he is a slave owner.
It is not in slave-owning human nature to
see twenty-millions of slaves bending the
knee before him without seeking to make
use of them
Behold, then, Mr. Conqueror Davis issu-
ing iortn from his tent to meet the humble
Commissioners! He covers up, as well as
he can, the ragged vestments of his former
fortunes, and greets the abject crew with a
haughty bow, carefully avoiding to expose
his disorganized rear to their slavish gaze.—
He enters into conversation, and while lis-
tening to their groans and penitential sup-
plications, he thinks eomplacently of the sin
gular good fortune which leads us to ask for
peace from, a man who is himself upon the
verge of rain. He smiles grimly at their tale
of distress, the stoppage of southern trade,
the interruption of business, the dreadful iii-
crease in taxation, by which wretched Amer-
icans are forced to pay almost as heavily du-
ring the war as the people of England pay
during peace; the probable increase of poor;
the frightful picture of John Bull, who has
lately growled at the conduct of the miséra~
ble United States government, and whose
frown frightens every Yankee mudsill out of
his boots, And as he listens, Mr. Davis
thinks eomplacently of those dangers which
menaced him, and which would have over-
whelmed him had his adversaries been men,
not cowards. He thinks of tour millions of
slaves, left without their masters, and daily
looking for deliverance from bondage. He
thinks of eight millions of people, deprived
by his act, not of their “southern trade,” but
of all communication with the outer world;
deceived in all their anticipations, and daily
growing more wretched and dissatisfied with
his slow progress. He 'I'emembcrs his ar-
mies murmuring for the pay which he can-
not give them—for the blankets which he
has not—for the food which grows each day
more scarce. He recalls those uneasy dreams
in which lie fancied himself torn to pieces by
the wild mob he had summoned to do his
bidding, and which he had not power to con-
trol. “Well, gentlemen,” he cries, rousing
himself from a reverie, “What do you want?”
“Peace, peace, only peace,” the Commis-
sioners cry. ‘SGiye us'peaoe and we will let
you alone.22 ' " i '
“You forget yourselves, good masters,”
says the complacent victor: “The question
to-day is whether I will let you alone,"
“We come, great sir, to propose a peacea-
ble separation. We are ready to acknowl-
edge your Confederacy.” And at the word
the chief Commissioner hands to the chief
insurgent a blank sheet of parchment, on
which to inscribe his own terms.
“You are ready to acknowledge on the part
of the North the right and power of any state
to secede at its pleasure ?”
“Certainly, sir.”
“You recognize the iridepcndence of the
Confederate States 39"
“Most gladly.”
“You will catch our runaway slaves, here-
alter, or pay us for them if they are not
caught ?”
‘fUnhesitatingly.” ,
“You will engage hereafter to prevent all
misrepresentation of the peculiar institution
by northern fanatics ‘3”
“With great pleasure."
“Your government will pay, :,ll the expen-
ses of the war, on‘hbth‘sidcs, in accordance
with the great American doctrine which de-
clares the objects secured by peace to be in—
demnity for the past and security for the fu-
ture ?”
At this we may suppose the commission-
ers to wince a little, but they immediately
consent.
“That will (lo—you can retire," says the
austere conqueror.
The wretched men grow. pale, and with a
lower how, and with ayert‘ed gaze, they mur-
mur, “Our Southern trade, 0 mighty con~
queror?”
“That reminds me,” replies Davis, “let me
introduce you to his Excellency, the British
Ambassador. We have drawn up a treaty of
triendship and commerce, which only await-
ed your presence to be signed. About your
southern trade—you forget that we must en-
courage our home industry. Our merchants

To the first call of the President for vol-
unteers, the subject of the above notice was
anxious to respond, but the earnest solicita-
tions of wife and friends for him to remain
at his home prevailed. But when the noble
5th Regiment was being mustered, be ob-
tained the reluctant consent of his famiiy,
and with those other gallant spirits from this
town, connected himself with it. Soon after
its arrival at Sandy Hook, he contracted the
fever, and although every attention which it
was possible for his comrades and physicians
to render, he sank rapidly till death ended
his sufferings. He leaves a wife and child to
mourl’ his early death, who, thanks to the
noble action of our State Legislature at its
last session, are not left entirely destitute.
\Vlien this atrocious rebellion shall have
been subdued, and the unwritten history of
this struggle recorded, his name, with others,
who gave their lives to secure to us the glo-
rious inheritance handed down to us by the
Fathers, will receive the appropriate niche in
the temple of liberty. *

Success IN LlI-‘E.—A man’s best help is in himself
—liis own heart, his own soul, his own resolute
piirpOse. The battle cannot be fought by rox . A
man’s mind may be aroused by another—his dyesirc
to improve anti advance himself may be excited by
another, but he must mould his own stuff, quarry
his own nature, make his own character ?-—let him
try again! Let him try hard—try often, and he
cannot fail ultimately to succeed. No man can tell
what he can do until he tries, and tries with resolu-
tion. Witness the success of Das. Hannrcx of
Albany—who fought poverty ten years but is now
called the autocrat of pill manufacturers.

January 28th, 1860.
TO DR. HEBRICK &
Co.—Gentlemen:
About one year ago,
your agent called up-
on mc and desired
.\ that I should take
a—your Pills and Plus-
" to sell in this
‘ ‘~‘"/‘/ nbcess in my right
,, side, as large as a pint
/ bowl or larger than a
cocoanut. I had not
buttoned my vest with
‘ , ~Lv. any comfort for over a
year. I had consulted some of the best physicmns
in the State, among which was Prof. Hamilton of
Buffalo, and many others, all of _whom decrded that
my disease would terminate family; that the abscqss
would eventually break inwardly, and run my life
away. I was not able to labor,much for two years,
and not liking to be idle, I commenced taking your
Pills. Soon after, the swelling commenced disap-
pearing, and finally appeared to point externally.—
I became alarmed, and sent for Dr. Sprague, who
advised me to continue taking the Pills, as my cure
was rapidly being completed I continued to use the
Pills in small doses for some months, and found
myself fully restored, the ulcer healed and I consid-
er myselfa well man. The news of this cure soon
spread through this section, and more .than a thou-
sand boxes of llerrick‘s Pills have sold in this vicin-
ity. My Post Utlicc addresti is Oneida Valley, Madi-
son County, D. Y., where persons interested can
address me, by inclosing a stamp, and learn more
fully my suiferings and dangerous condition for
three long years. You may publish this letter If
you like, to assist the sick and advance your repu-
tation. Truly yours, D. C. C .

Restoring the Bald and Gray.
Many, since the great discovery of Prof. Wood,
have attempted not only to imitate his Restorative
but profess to have discovered something that would
produce results identical; butthey have come and
«one, being carried away by the wonderful malts of
Prof. Wood’s preparation, and have been forced to
leave the field to its rcsistless sway. Read (be fol-

Bath, Maine, April 18th, 1859.
PROP. 0. J. WOOD it: 00.; GentSI—Tha letter I
wrote you in 1857 concerning your valuabln Hair
Restorative, and which you have published eluwhere
and in this vicinity, has given rise to numoxous in~
quirics touching the facts in the case. The enquiries
are, first, is it a fact of my habitatinn and mine, as
stated in ilie communications; second, is It lrue of
all therein contained; third, does my hair still con-
tinue to be in good order and of natural calm 1' To
allI can and do invariably answer .yes. My hair in
even better than in any stage of life of 40 yearn past,
more soft. thrifty and better colored; the Mine 1!
true of my whiskers, and the only cause wh It is not
generally true, is that the substance is was ad ofl'by
irequentablution of the face, when if care wue used
by wiping the face in close connection with tho whis~
kers. the same restlt will Iollow as the hair. I have
been in the recci t ofa great number of lettas from
all parts of New ‘ngland, asking me if m ludi- still
continues to be good; as there Is so muc taud in
the inanufdctiire and sale of various compounds as
well as this, if has, no doubt, been basely Irritated
and been used, not only without an good claret but
to absolute injury. I have not use arty of)": Re:
torative ol‘any account for some months, and vet my
hair is as good as ever, and hundreds have examined
it with surprise. as I am 61 years old and not’u gray
hair in my head or on my face; and to prove this
fact I send you a lock of my hair taken of the past
week. I rcceivud your favor of two quart bottles
last summer, for which [run very aratcfui. I gave
it to my friends and thereby inducea them to try it,
many were skcpiical until after trying, and then pur-
ohascd and used it with universal success. I will
ask as as a favor that you send mea test by which I
can discover fraud in the Restorative, sold by man ,
Il'ear, without aiitliotity from you. A pure artic 9
will insure success, and I beltevc where good effects
donot follow, the failure is caused by an impure ar-
ticle, which curses the inventor of the good. Ideein
it my duty as heretofore, to keep you apprised of the
continued effect on my hair, as I assure all who in-
quire ot‘me, my unshakeii opinion oi‘its valuable re-
sults. I remoin, dear sir, yours,
Peer. 0. J. Woon; Dear Sin—I would certainly
be doing you a great injustice not to make known to
the work . the wonderful as well as the unexpected
result I have experienced in using our: bottle of
your Hair Restorative. After using every kind of
Restorative extant, but without success, and findin
my head nearly destitute of hair, I was finally in
duced to try a bottle of your Hair Restorative.—
Now, candor and justice compel me to announce to
whoever may read this, that 1 now possess anew
and beautiful growth of hair, which I prounce richer
and handsomer than the original was. I will there-
fore take occasion to recommend this invaluable
remedy to ALL who may feel the uecessit of it. Res!
pectfully yours. REV. S. AL EL BROOK.
