From the commencement of the pro-

and the South, our people have beet . '

on for the restoration of the Union es
tablished by our forefathers.‘This was
a direct appeal to the patridlism of the
people,. for the. masses all loved our
government, and thousands were willing
to Jenard their lives in order to main
tain or restore it Since the commence
ment of the war more than ono.million
of men -have audoubtedly entered the
aerviceowith the expectation that their
elfarte • and sacrifices were means by
which the ljuion might be restored.

a now centralised power in place of the
Rodent! Union, the truth of this propo
olitron The restoration of the Union is not
a military enterprise, and cannot be se
cured by military success however brilliant
or long continued. If our resources in
men and means hold out long enough we
may captuse Richmond, Charleston, 8a-
vannah, Mobile, and every other city,
town, and fortified place in the South,
and hold military possession` of every
square mile of Southern territory, yet
there will be, no union between Ile
people of the North and the people of
the South.l' When everything which
military proweei can accomplish shall
have been done, tho people who love the
Union and revere oar form of 'govern-
ment will find to their sorrow✓ and din-
appointment that not one State, not one
county, not even one townihip belonging
In the Confederate States haa . been re
stored to the Vitioic.
There is but ono way by which a
finials between the Net* and South can
be established by military power, and
that is by the utter annihibition of the
present Southern population - and the ro-
peopling of the Southern territory by
those who may be friendly to the North.
We might then have a union with the new
population of the South, for all unions
must depend upon the free consent and
mutual good will of the parties thereto.
Bat this would not be the old Union of
Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Adams
and 'Hamilton. It would be a new
Union, reposing cm - the graves of over
sew millions of Ameriesn oh - Neils. The
weep Southern people, as sodn as 'they
had become tiaturalited as it were itt
their new homes, would possetii:the same
feelings, - interests, and motives which
led tho present, population ,
,of the
South to desire a separation from

for what? To demonstrate a prepoia-

to decieye the Southern people as to the'
magnitude of the struggle in which they
were engaged an; the difficulties they had
mencounihrove cannotact believe that
the releilliou is on its "last legs.":
In his message of last yeat he painted
in the most striking character the perils
which environed the Confederacy, .and
throughout khe document indulged
in the most melancholy forebodings for
tho future. Not a newspaper in the
North but gavo him credit for candor,
while they exulted in the situation
which ho so much deplored. There i
no evidence in the last year that Jeff.
Davis has ehanged Lis characteristics.
If he was a candid man then, he is can
did still if last year!, message i3xpressed
his true sentiments, we have no reesan
to believe 'that the one publighed to-day
does not express them now.
He speaks now most hopefully and
confidently of ultimate success, and as
sumes a more defiant position than ever.
He claims that the Federal Government
has gained no advantage over them in
the last year, which was not more than
balanefid by some suocess on their part.
Whether he 'matte flatily or not, a com
parison of message with the history
of the war will fully show—with that we
have nothing to do. Accepting his char+
actor for candor, as taught by the north
ern press, we rnbst believe that one,
speaking from a position at the head of
the rebellions South, can give fully the
opinion of the Southern people upon
the war. And that opinion is that their
success against Abolition, Confiseittion,
Miscegenation, annihilation, .tna the
Yankee Patiotrisseertain: And all this
immediately after the re-election of Mr.
Lincoln. The Abolitionists told us that
the endorsement of their bloody policy ,
would strike terror to the Southern
heart and bring a speedy peace, that the
election of, McClellan and an endorse
ment of Democratic principles.'would
give them renewed energy and incite
them to desperate deeds agaibst those
who offered them peace, happiness and
union under the old Constitution which
they assisted to make and defend. It
seems to have been a mistake and a
woful one. liticeln is re-elected. We
'look southwaid lend see the Southern
Congress quietly seatbd in lliehmond,
devisidg means for the prosecution of
the war for four more bloody, terrible
years, Southern bayonets bristling on
every hillside, and the Southern heatr
fired to the most deadly hatred against
the power which threatens their inatitu
tiona and their lives. The questions will
force themselves upon us—would these
thingehave beets had General McClellan
been elected? Would Jeff. Davis have
delivered so eonfident and defiant a
message if we had won the hearts of his
adherantz by offering them compromise,
peace, and prOsperity% while ho Could
only offerleats of blood, nd desolation,
and woo, with the hope of ultimately
attaining what the Democracy would
have offered. them . once, _ ; their
liberties? And they will Waggle on,
either to the achievement of their inde
pendence, or until we/ of the North are
willing- to offer them peace on the basis
of' the old Union, as proposed by tho
Democracy in their convention at Chi
cago. Results will teach our people
what we told them years ago—that war
could never restore the Union; and
when they have learned the bitter lesson
of experience they will return to their
ancient faith; and - shore the bloody,
fearful past.we will draw the certain of

Who Ought to Carry on the War?
We verily believe that a large number
—we will not say what proportion—of
thoso who voted for Abraham Lincoln en:
the Bth. instant are appalled already I st
the work of their own hands. They
were deceived into blindly following the
war partY, and did not stop to inquiie
whither it would lead. Not an intelli
gent man amongst them but begins .to
doubt the correctness of the policy their
leaders have•pursued, and the strong and
defiant position assumed by the Confed
eracy seems to promise nothing but four
years more of war, or, the recognition of
the Southern Republic,. 'Thatisjust the
Position in which the Abolition party
stands. If they ;cannot subjugate the
South they must acknowledge their in
dependence—for all kndivo there can be
no union between each bitter foes. The
future looks portentions, and already the
reaction of feeling has begun. - , The
people elected Linooln because they be
lieved it was the surest means of ending
the war in the shortest possible time.
They were told that the strength of the
South *pi broken, that a few more vig
orous blows would finish the work. and
they voted for the war party for that
roe :ou and no other. We aro worn out
with this exhausting war ; the people aro
tired of misery, and destitution, and
death ; they are not only satisfied that
we have had fighting enou,gth but are
beginning to think that we never ought
to have had any at all ; they were in
duced to believe that if the DeMooraor
got into power thoy would daily with the
war question, and only postpone the
settlement to some future more doubtful
mid desperate struggle, They endorsed
Abraham Lincoln because he promised
to bring the war to a speedy conclusion;
and if he fails in doing it they will repu
diate him as a bloody monster, worthy
only of ,the hatred of mankind. That he

WMIOINOTON CO. Mn.. Nov. 8, 1864.
MT DICAR BilC—lt Is due to the fribids of
00a. Magilitpn that they should know of
the outrages which were committed to-day
in this Slate at the ballot - box. Hundreds of
legal Totters were everywhere denied the
right to VOto—then who had voted for fifty
years, slid of the highest character and
wealth, upon the flimsiest pretexts, had their
votes reftised. You are doubtless familiar
with the-oath imposed upon us by our new
Constitution. Odious as it was, our people
were still willingto take it, but this was not
deemed OuffiOient, and the most silly and
vexatious questions were added, without
the least shadow of law. For an example,
one gentleman who had taken the oath, and h i
ni ,
: • : Ileforlbr (Aber quailluna, ae
at lag asked, if the two armies were enga
ged in battle, which would he deaire to he
victorious ? He answered. "That which
was right in the eight of God." And this
;reply was.deemed sufficient to establish
Lis disloyalty, and Ma - Toter was refeeted.
Others were denied their right simply be
cause they frequented certain houses ' or
.sociated with particular persons. One
her was rejected upon the testimony of e
oluutseriritness; that he bad beard him
when Patterson's army passed through
Hagerstown, in 1861, that.tbey would never
return. The largest majority, however,. _of
those whose votes were refused were not
permited to swear at all, or to offer any
evidence of their li;yalty, or fitfelityobto the
Constitution. The ntere facts of openly, an ,
noupoing ene'n Rolf for McClellan was
enough to forfeit his vote. In what I have
already said 1 ',lave attempted to give you
some idea of the conduct of tha sworn judges.
The outrages that were permitted by atinH'
redraw' around the polls were equally Infam
ous
; it.was almost impossible to opproach
tkie polls without great risk.
The returns will perhaps show the largest
majority, for Lincoln in this -noway of all
othertlet State; yet l could make oath
wialf a clear •conecience that McClellan,
with a fair sleotion, would have a large
majority.

THE POPULAR Dore OF TUE UNITED
STATRIV—The following is probably, from
the returns, a pretty close approximation to
the popular vote cast at the,,late Presiden
tial election throughout tie United
States.
Lincoln and Johnson,... ...... .......
McClellan and Pendleton, 1,700,000
Majority for Lincoln,
The President has hardly tlve l per cent,
majority on the total vote. For every hun
dred votes for Lincoln in the loyal States,
there have been cast ninety-fire for hie
Democratic competitor, and a large part of
this exoess was given in New England. In
the Central, Wtretern, and border States,
McClellan had some ninety-eight votes to
Lincoln's one hundred, despite all the great
advantages possessed.by the. "Wier, and
which ware powerfully and unscrupulously.
used.
GRANT AND lINCOLN.-.-GODOMI Grant bas
sent a dispatch to Waden, congratulating
the President on his re-olitotiqn,:Which he
declared to be "worth more t 9 the country
than a battle won." In our humlite'opinion
it would be quite as proper for General
Grant, before he turns politician and
chuckles over the election of his Command - -,
er-in-Chief, to give us a little victory of his
own to crow over. He has been saeridaing
men by tens of thousands, and digging and
delving to a degree that reduces Moqfillan's
use of the spade to the cultivation ot F cab
bags garden, and has not yet acoonliddidd
anything worth talking of. Hi bad better,
therefore, do something to meet the erniee;
