WKDNICSDAY MORNING AUGUST it, 1W.4.
' Hutory it Constantly Repeating Itself."
Tha obaervftbon fs sufficiently trite; but it is none
tbe le** true tor all that. Tlie Yank..,, with tt*
iriird to us, arc in the same position that I > >ni North
and the majority in Parliament were with regard to
the .*. .loiue* of I lift, with this difference : that the
colomc* were htma fide coloniw*. They had been
settled by Great britain, governed hv her, and had
alway* a. kna.wle.lifd her supremacy ; whereas, the
State of Virginia was settled ten year* before Ply
mouth Rofk was ever h«*ar*l of; never »v govein«*d
hy tbe Yank*-***; never owed them any »llegi*iiee,
aad onlyunitedwith them in forming a government
ter certain purposes expressed in tb** Constitution
creating that Government The same may lw said
at all the State* constituting the Confederacy. They
were settled later, but not by Yank.****, and none of
them were ever governed by Yank***-*, or acknow
ledged any right on the I**'" l °* *** Yankee** to
gorp-rn them. It follows that the colon ie* actually
rebelled when thi*y set tlie Government of George
IIP at defiance, and that we arc not rebels wheu we
u.-iiy the right of tlie Yankee* to govern us. Yet
the** aame Yankees have not only practically de
nied every right asserted by the Declaration of inde
pendence, but have adopted the very phrasculogy
habitually employed by the Parliament in speak- i
ing of the colonies lad us add, that there is not
one angle enormity which Yankee Fourth-of-July
oratora and Yankee historians have been in the
habit of ascribing to tho ministry and armies of
Oeorge 111. which their own Congress and their
own people have not committ<*d on a vastly extended
scale, and with the addition of ten-fold horrors.
We are induced to mnke these observations by a
paragraph in the press telegram of yesterday morn
ing, in which it is stated that four hundred citizens
bad been killed in a riot in New Orleans, occasioned
by Canby'* attempt to enforce tlie draft. When Sir
Henry Clinton captured Charleston in May, 1780, he
published a pro.lamation, in which he called upon
the i«*ople of South Carolina to return to their
home* and remain quiet, promising all who did so
It they should not te disturbed. His successor,
d Cornwallis, disregarding tliis promise, called
m all people capable of bearing arms to come
rard and assist in putting down the rebellion,
I hi* agents and emissaries traversed the State
n one end to the otjier in order to compel obedi
e. Thi* proclamation produced results the up
te of those intended. The pcopk* had .stud
,ome under the impression that they would not
omptllel to engage m the war; but finding that
r Wa*a? compelled to firiht, they determined to
t by the rid? of their countrymen, and not nguin-t
n. Many who had even taken the oath of alle
ice.on the condition, cither-expressed or implied,
they would be allowed to remain quiet at home,
aide red themselves absolved from their engage
rs by this new proclamation. Among others
stood in that category was Colonel Isaac Huync,
w.is afterwards captun*d ami executed by Lord
don, whose namo has been held in execution
that day to this by the whole continent of
■tea. The Yankee* have written nearly all the
• that have been published touching the revaj
nof '76; and there i* not one of thcae books in
which the conduct of Lord Cornwallis is not severely
reprobated. The idea of drafting men against their
Will to fight against their own countrymen, and pro
bably to kill or be killed by some of them, is too
ahoiking to think at The Yankee historians were
perfectly right in denouncing tlie atrocity when it
was practised by the Myrmidons of Cornwallis; but
we hear not a word of censure, now thflt the execu
tor* of Lincoln's will are doing the barne thing.
No men.denounced more bitterly than the Yan
kee* the English practice or imptvr-s.ne seamm from
vessels belonging to the Pnited -State*. This was
oue among the many cause's that conspired to bring
on the war of ISI2, and during that war the Con
gress of the United State*, in a formal document,
denounced as unchristian and inhuman a policy
Which retained the American seamen thus impressed,
and rendered them liable to fall by the hands of
their own countrymen on the deck of an enemy's
Teasel. In what do the drafts of the Yankees at
New Orleans and elsewhere differ from this practice
of the English, save that, having been Baa-ate* 1
while war is actually raging between the Yankees
and the Confederacy, it multiplies tin hundred-fold
the danger of collision between the men thu> im
pressed and their brethren in the Confederate ar
mies, and that it is infinitely more sweeping, more'
tyrannical, and more inhuman .' There is, indeed,
no circumstance whicb can aggravate the horrors of
war that has not been introduce! into this contest
by the Yanke.M,
There seems to be little doubt that one among the
atereral causes, which led ta.. our failure on the Wel
don railroad, las! Sunday, was the extreme eare
ussness with which tin* secret of the intended at
tack had been kept. •' If the enemy," saya our
correspondent, "X.," in a letter published by
va yesterday, " were not apprised of our at
tack, it was not because the plan and time were
not known, even to the very urchius of Peters,
urg. Whose fault it was that these matters leaked
ut, I do not know, but I do know that eighteen
lours before, the time, pUce and character of th •
tight were on the lips of aU, soldiers and citizens."
»mbtless the enemy noon became as well informed
I the " soldiers and citizens" in question ; and to
hi* cause, more than to any other, we are inclined
o trace the painful result. How can success be
xpected under such circumstances I How, indeed
in anything but disaster be the result .
Ibis is uot tho first time since the war began
lat plans well laid, and promising the greateat sue
des'*, have been defeated by premature discovery.—
ur reader* will recall many, and they cannot but
io it with shame and vexation. The fault always
is at the door of some consequential aide-de-camp,
some leaky clerk, whom it has been found ncces
i>ary to entrust with the secret, and who cannot keep
it without bursting. The law ought to provide a
heavy penalty for such offences, no less than instant
degradation from office and forced service in the
rank and file of the army. Somebody about the
person of the General, or the .Secretary, or the Pros- I
ident, must always be the person to limb, otherwise I
how is it poesable for the secret to get out ? Tbe I
BWjtwaaw*y is woll known to be a gentleman of great |
i .-t:. em-.- on all mattei* connected with hi* official j
duties, whde the President und General Lee are as
i*ecret aa tbe grave. These matters must come out
through other and inferior agencies, and it i* of the
last imjaortance to find them out and make an ex
ample. Of aU an aide-de-camp's accomphshment* I
we should think that of knowing how to keep hi! j
own , auias. 1, and that which hs entrusted fo him by I
other*, tbe most important, as it seems to be the
While we are upon thi* subject, we cannot forbear
to remark the extreme want of discretion observable
in some of tb*. paper* published near the bobb* ol
General Hood* operation*. Whatever the conduc
tor* learn with regard to tbe movements of troops
thoyaeeuito publish without the slightest hesita
tion or consideration. It must be exceedingly diffi
cult to conduct an enterprise requiring secrecy to a
•ocveasful issue anywhere in the neighborhood of
any of them. In the struggle for precedence in lhe
article of fete) latest news, they appear to care very
btUe about tb* propriety of publishing it. If they
can get it, they publish it, let the consequence* be
what tfacy may. We have no doubt that to thi*
aource we may trace much of the ill-succ*-*..,
that ha* attended our exertions in that quarter and
the tact ttiat our army is now tsouth of the Chatta
boochee, when it should*be at least north of the Ten!
