110 W TO SAVE THE COUNTRY. A. Letter from Gov. Bigler. 'CtEATI6'4ELD, PA., Nov. 1, 1862. 1:1`X Ds.an Satz toply to your favor of the :fifith ultimo, / hereto 'say That .you have 'been *lightly infot mud. LI de met %Iced to be •a 'Can. 'didete torte ited States Senator tit Itte Trttaing election, and have so expressed myself to friends on till-proper occasions. I hare a number area , sons public and private, for this course, one of `which is that the eastern and northern sections of the State make special claim to the Senator, et this time, on the ground that we have one in ithe West recently elected, and cannot reasona. It ly claim both for oolong a term. The other question you ask, "What can be done to save the country," is ,not so readily answered. The usual cesponse is, God knows. Few of our best di:hikers mom to kayo any clear views on the , question; and it is not even certain that the edminietrtsbion at Washington has a well defined Tolley to that end: Shave octane thoughts on.the ziniteot which I do not hesitate to give you.-- 'They may seem to you emido, and unseats points even novel and stwraieg 3 bat they are the to. sulk of some reflection. The sword the only agency at work. rat ibeiword cannot do att. It an agent of de eruption. If can tear down but cannot, build up. It may chastise and silence the rebels in the field; but it cannot make a union of sto.s i tr Cannot restore -confidence and "fraternity &- monger a people estranged and. alienated from each other. If the wur.Was against the leaders the South only, as - many at the beginning sup posed; then the - sword might pat them down and the ,masses could return to their allegiance; But the coo filet turns nut to be with the whole mass of the,people within the revolted States, old and 'S•oting; male and female, numbering many mill ions. With Such a power, sooner or later, we steel have to treat and negotiate. The sword talone weld mover restore this people to the Union. You weWitnew that when the present Wane. lies 'menaced aim nation, I was fur peaceful means to avert- the blow. Then our present suffering and sacrifices could have been avoided and, as I believe, the unity of the States- preserved for generations, without the sacrifice of principle, or honor, or conscience on either side; passion, prejudice andlanatieisna only Would have been required to give way; and I still think, nay, I am 'Sure that other means besides war are sites. tory :to save our country—our whole country— from present afflictions and impending ruin, I know how easy itis to talk about war :end carnage; about strategetie positions and itril• liant victories; about the prompt subjugation of the South by the North; how pleasant it may be to some US float in the common current of excite- Merit and passion; and especially how unpleas. ant, - if' not unsate, it is to stem this tide. But the time is coining, if it be not .now, when the man, who would render his country a substantial service must do this. He must look at the whole +troth before us, and strike for the right regard. lab's 'Of ,the consequences to himself personally. • We have had war fur eighteen months, the like of which the world has seldom witnessed before, to sustain which a national debt Of startling mag nitude' which toast hang 'Over posterity long in' to the future, has already been created, and more than a quarter of a million of invaluable lives sacrificed on the Union side alone, in addition to the teeny thousands that have been crippled etdiseased fur life; and yet but little, if any, substantial progress,haebeen made in the good hark of establishing - the Unicin, or even of maintaining the 'Federal authority within there vetted 'States. Has net then, the experiment of war, as,a means of extricating, the country, from hi' present deplorable eondition, been . nlready teited=tested at least -to such an extent as to prove its Otter futility unaided by other. means, it was a happy thought, of President Lincole, expressed in his Inaugural ; that if we went to war we timid' not fight always; "and when after Meets loss en 'both sides and no gain .on either, you Cease fighting, theidenticei old ouestioos as to terms of intercourse are again upon you."—, This prophetic and highly significent sentiment shows that even Mr. Lincoln, before the war be gan,,antieipated the time, in ease it did begin, when it would be,,necessary to put the sword to test, at least for a season, in order to resume the identical old questions about intercourse and bet, tlement.; It does not seem to have occurred to him that the award could do the whole work, but that, inevitably; we would have to come back to the original point to compromise and settle. - If. then; -we cannot fight always, what amount of fighting is neceosary to render it proper to pre pare to cease or suspend in order to consider terms of reconciliation. There has already-"been much loss on both sides and no gain en either;" end whilst the time to cease fighting may not be yet, the period has surely come when other means be - sides the sword-should be employed in the ef fort to safe the govermisent and- country. Cer tainty the object of the war, and the extent to which' it id to go, should be definitely known to the country': If it be intended to subjugate the Stites in retffilion, and hold them, not as States in the lintorritiut as conquered provinces; then the stiord must be 'kept in constant motion and War and carnage be the order of the day; New levies and fresh supplies may-be properly raised; for it will require a formidable army in each of the seceded States to execute and maintain this scheme. If extermination be the object, then the sword should have unrestrained license to deal death and , destruction amongst the rebelsi' in all parts of their country, 'regardless, of sea, or age, or condition. But neither of these purpo ses, if pracitcableorould re establish the Unicin; although there - might remain rtUn ion, computed of certain States. But, when the Union is re es• tablished, the South as weans the North must be in it; the family of States must exist - as hereto fore, else it wilrnot:be the' Union about which we have talked so much and for -which, so many brave men nave offered up their lives. The phys ical triumph of the North over the South in the field, as the North in the 'end may triumph,lS not the whole 'of the task, 'The States must be brought together; the feelings of the people must be so constrained and moderated that they can fraternize and lire together, else the Union •is gone forever. TO subjugate the Southern States and so hold them could subserve no good end for either section, and,ita no way, that I can d ispov er , advance the welfare orthe Narth ',•"'for'solting as the South was se 'held,therhate of the North would increase, and whilst the North so held••rhe South it could do but little else; meanwhile its material interest must languish and die. But, in addition, such a work is utterly inconsistent with the genius of our institutions; and could scarcely faille lead to their titter perversion: and ultimate overthrow, adding to the calamities of disunion the sacrifice of free government. Con quest and empire:, however magnificent, could not compensate for such a loss: To exterminate . the inhabitants of the South, would be a deliberate emasculation of the Union, rendering its reconstruction at once impractica ble and hopeless, and involve a work of barbar ity from which the northern people would shrink in horror. The existence of the southern States, in some form, with their inhabitants, and on some terms of intercourse, is highly essential—nay. I will say, indispensable—to the welfare of the North, I am, therefore, against extermination and against the policy of bolding the southern States as conquered provinces. Th is ground can be so easily maintained on purely. selfish consid erations for the North, which will occur to all, that rileed not trouble you with their presenta. tion on this occasion. I em for re establishing the Union as it was, or making a Union as simi lar as practicable, the Stems to be equals and to be sovereign to the extent the Sates now are, each to have and enjoy such domestic institutions as If may ehooSe; and, were I in Congress, I should sustain. that measure of war, and that on ly, that,would.elearly tend to the accomplish. ment of these ends ; but no war of subjugation or ex term [nation. I knovr:it maybe, said in, reply to all thle. Then let the Southern, people lay down their arms and come back into the Union, and all will be right again. • Would,to God they could he in duced so to do! There is no guaranty in reason that I would not he willing to grant them.: But do we sea any indications, of such a'returito•rea son and duty? I can see none, and expect to see none, so long as the sword is uniteenmpanied by agents for settlement and peace,. When our army went to Mexico it was acenrepanied by a' 'pe a ce commission, in order to embrace the earli est:Opportunity for settlement. In God's:' name, would ask, should we do less when enga g ed in a war among St. ouisclves ? It is Idle, and worse than , idle, to.delude ourselves about the nature of the conflict in which we are engaged. We' cannot make a Union by force alone, th‘mgh we may -triumph over the South in thelfteld, and may as well look .the complications square in-the face. The first miestitio is, do we intend do we deilre, to have atilhe Southern States, hark - into;the - Union;on - theJerms of the Constitution? de; th'en'it 'seeri that they Aire to be the equals of the Northern States in rights, sovereign. ty and dignity. ~Doesmny one believe that such a relation earrbe eitabliehed and maintained by the Sword ilobe? Should a certain number of the Stites itihjugate and huniiliate the others, then .they could not live together as equals and friends, for the subjugated are always the ene mike.of•the`.sohjimator4. When all the States, -therefore, resume their Pinner relations, or new relations of union nett intercourse, it must be the octne nit li'the settlement is to be complide and . . `permanent'," . I have heardra , great dear about patching up a dishonorable peace—about the humiliation and disgrace to the North involved in any and every proposition for settlement--and there is nothing that is said about-the affairs ofetlitemountry ftir which I haveleiii respect:'' It is oxen held by some that he is 4. disloyal *Alb eeeke to re establish the Union by. etinir 'Means that 'Otte sword. How abstirei. The Ylvih.d has been i gt work—its'ageney bee'betin testedeleigdfoublry ant terribly testae—end how stand the 'States llow that strattlel be in 'harmony 1 The sad response is, Whew° Vele 'when Ther `war began., tetay_ ed in grim end relentless hostility. Then `Why spueninther agencies.to aid id the 'good work ? In the words of Mr. Lideoln, we cannot fight al ways, and we should not fight longer unless we can do so as a means of ultimate o Union and per manent peace, , What then can be done? and I regret that all that should he done cannot be accomplished promptly. The States now in the Union should be in convention e er have delegates ready to go into convention, in order to reaffirm the present constitutional relations amongst the States, with explanations on controverted points, or to make such new relations as. may be found necessary to bring together and retain all the States. The State Legitilaturea douldi petition Congress for such n con ven tion ;as provided by-the Conatitu• tire, and Cong ress could make the necessary pre visions fer it before the elese of the 'coming ses sion. Such State legisle Ivrea as do not meet in the regular order could be specially convened; and when the necessary numberof States petition, it is obligate - al , on Congress to comply. The body thus constituted would be competent toad just and settle all the complications which now beset us. In the midst of war. then, we should be prepared to make peace; whereas, when the time comes for settlement, in the absence of such body, it might be _found that we have no com petent authority in existence to do the things that may be necessary. Neither Congress, nor the Executive, nor the two together, have right ful authority to change the old or to make new relations amongst. the States. Congress may submit amendments to the Constitution for the ratification of the States, and I.believe the pies. ent calamities of the nation could have been a verted in that way in the winter of 18.64..; bet now the disorders of the country are probably too complicated to be reached in that fortu. Meanwhile, the President and Congrees should prepare the way for settlement. Indeed, by con• salting the people through the ballot box, they might make a settlement, to be ratified by the States thereafter; Let the Presipent propose an armistice, for the purpose of considering some programme of reunion and settlement, in which the feelings and , rights of the masses in the South shall be duly appreciated and provided for. • In vite them to come back on the conditions of the Constitution with explicit definitions on centre : verted points, or on new conditions, with the full. est assurance of justice and equality' when they do so come. Let him do this, and challenge the rebel authorities to submit such propositions as may be agreed upon to an unrestrained vote of the Southern States, as he will, at the same time, submit such prepositions - toe vote of' those of the Nor:town States, with the undersencling that ifs majority of slave States and a majority of free States. accept the proposition, its 'condi tions should be binding.un til ratified Or ruiner ceded by the States. -Suppose , the Confederate authorities reject this, or any simile eprop,osi t ion, no harm could ensa,e to the' Northern cause.— Such'action siould'only leave thetn'in - a worse light before the- world; and the government at iVashington in the better. Thdprelintinaries for Such a Movement Could be readily arranged by commissioners selected Ttir that 'purpose.. • It may be:said that we aremenstently inviting the se Th utherh eople lnY down tbeir,ertne. and Comeback into e Ur) iao;w and this would tenon to be conclusive hilt it - must s not 'be' fergoiten that they rebelled, because, es-thety!eay,ftbe!par ty now in power at Washington, .would- not per mit them to enjoy; in peace, the real conditions and core - mints of that UnMn; and that, there is no evidence that they- would fare better now.— Beside, hdhas studied human nature to,a poor purpose, who cannot discover that eneonditional submission involves a degree of huniiliation - to which they will never come so long as‘they have any means of resist-ante. - the effort to gain back even the masses, their passions, end ,pride, and self-respect may bewisely considered. We must give them same-new - ground, some pretext, if not complete and substantial guarantees, .be• fore we can expect them to entertain the idea of forsaking their present leaders, and embracing the old government. I am fully , aware of the indignation, and even , contempt, vitb which these suggestions win be, perused by some in both sections, but I care not ; are we not engaged in an effort to re establish and maintain the Union, and are -not the sece ded - States to compose part of that Union ? Then why not endeavor to rescue them from de , struetion, and cultivate • good relations 'with them. - - ' When the family of States again-eit iat as here tofore, they Must beeomp our brethren and .cur equals in every particular. What pleasure, then. can we hare in their destruction or-humiliation? If there be any friends of the old flag .and the old Government within the seceded States, they should cultivate the same Adtrard . the North. The absent element of a subatantial Uni on is fraternity amongst :the Inople, and that I can never-be farniihed , by - the sword: Again in the words of Mr.-Littman, "there has been much loss on both sides and no gain an either," and the indentieal old question as to terms of : inter. course. are upon . s, and we should seek ao to .adl 7 just them as to - reestablish` the'tlire& perisliable basis.• But, it maybe' asked, ;M .

It m igh t be interesting, as well as instructive to unveil the hYpocrisy of a certain school *of politi Mans who hove clamored so zealously about the war for the :Union . --- It is, plainfulty apparent that notwithstanding this ,clamor, they do not intend that the Union Shall exist hereafter on the terms of the Cnnst itution, if' it is to embriee all the States.

Between the maintenance Of . these and the recognition of the Southern , Confederacy, many of them, in my judgment, four to one, would pre fer the latter. Their aversion to these clauses of the Constitution was a priteary cause of the alien ation and hostility of the South, rind I - fear they would not yield that aversion now to-render the Union what it once was.
