SENTIMENI‘ OF THE ARMY.
If we desire to uncertain the real senti
ment. of the army we Vniu<t seek for it in
'the private icttors of soldiers written to
frienilq nHmmc. not in resolutions written
by ambitious oiiiccmfgr the purpose of secu
ring their own [lrQll‘lfllion. We mightpuly
lish coluins ofic-ttors written by officers and
privutes’ifi the armypull breathing the
same spirit of opposition to the policy upon
which, and the object 'for which. the wer is
now obviously conducted, but. wo‘have
heretofore preferred filling our" paper with
mutter bctter calculnted to enlighten the
public ,mind upon what. v 56 consider the
true principles of republican government,
believing t‘ at. such uowledgc. generally
diffused. was the best protection againqt
Executive and Congrmionel encroach
ments upon the public iiberty. and the
most effective moans ofsnving the Constitu
tion and Union from the rum contempla
ted -by insidious foes. But we have a few
short; extracts on hand from letters written
mostly by men who entered the army us Be
pubiicans in politics, which it may not be
amiss to circulate. us a refutation of the
gross calumnies against our soldiers with
which the Abolition press daily team's.

Republican stump orator. and much addic

manner ofthe administration parasites, no!

“0h th‘nt our friends at home would go to
work and settle, this unholy rebellion,
which can mm»: be suit/ml by war."
This much fromdx Democrat would enti

“Copperhead." .
S. Metzlér, jr., a soldier in the Army of
tgne Mississippi. writee_to his ”brother glad;
Slater : ’
"Alexander has been writing to me to
give him my views on the negro question. ’
r and [will do so. -For' my part lam not for
freeing the negroes. and I would rather
give my bounty money, to have them were
they are than to see‘ one of them freed.—
Werc it not for the Abolitionista of the
North agitating the negro question the war
mig tbe settled in a short time. But such
peo le cry out: ‘ Free the negro; free
itho negro,’ and that enrages the men of
the South. Those men in the South who
‘have had no reason to tight; now have rea.
son to protect their slaves; and they say
that We may kill them all but we can never
whip them. They further' say that “'JVQ
sucpeed in whipping them they will teach
their children to fight ns.—-Ahd I now (see,
there'is no honor in fighting such a people ;T
and I ‘ say compromise on _hny popaible .
terms.” ‘ ‘ '
