the sua shine. Had these
formed of indurated matter, like rocks,
they might have been heard falling yes-
terday morning in the neighborhood of the
Post Office, liko pecans shaken from the
giant-tree of the mountains by a thunder
storm. Many of our people as they read
the "extras" were amazed.—and th
who listened to the readers had their ears
all a-prick, their eyes all a-pop, and their
months all a-gape. Had a troop of aix
hundred furies suddenly descended inte
their midst from the elements ahquAv^

'Twas-the reading of Lincoln's
sage to bis Congress flat did all
this. Many ofonr citlsena had really
wrought themselves inte the belief that
the Black Republicans were about the
honeatcst politicians in the world, and
that Old Abe really intended to do nnth*
ing mere than a little gentle "roaring" at
the South. 'Twos this belief in the
good intentions of the Black Repub-
licans that made them Union mou, an I
since by one sudden wrench, all the scales
are torn from their eyes, 'tis not aston-
ishing thut they look back with sorrow
and utter bewilderment npen their past
course. They now .see plainly that had
we, on the aoccssiim of a Black Republic-
an Administration, sat still and dono
nothing, it would have stewed every man
of as in a. aeething'hot caldron, and per-
haps added a little red pepper to the
bfotb to give a keener edge to our suffer-
ings. They now begin to congratulate
their cln'tps that the "precipitators'" sav-
ed them from such treatment, and we ac-
tually heard one of the late must violent
Unionists in tho city, say that the preci-
pitators were right from the beginning,
