There is a wickedness in them "sufficient to call a curse upon a country a precedent po. tent to excite and vindicate evils that may convulse the country. It is a civil war of the most guilty and dangerous character. Considerable nmitcs are em-, bodied and armed on cither side, and' arc preparing to imbrue their hands in hlnod. The cause of the quarrel is as to the pri-vilegp of rapine.

Yet, though these terrible facts are ringing through the land, scarce a journal expresses a word of reprehension. The LocofocoCiovernor says, in irriling, (the letter has published,) that it is better to let then, tight it out. For such a sentiment, and for his course in accordance with it, he deserves immediate impeachment. It is the primary duty of the State to suppress with best rung hand this disgraceful wnr.
