Lincoln Franked Again.
Old Abe's political prospects get Worse
and worse. With the overwhelming for
ces of the Democracy massed in his froutL
the indignant Fremonters on his left;'and
Greeley kicking up a damaging dust in
his rear, about the Niagara treachery, the
country is now startled by $ revolt which
breaks out in bits own strongest and cen
tral column, to bolt to the right and out
off Lincoln's last hope of escape from an
annihilating defeat.
Senator Wade and Congressman Davis,
the Republican chairmen of the commit
tees in Congress on reconstruction, have
issued an indignant address to the people
upon Old Abe's last proclamation on re
construction. They boldireharge, and
prove, that he is guilty of " dictation,"
" usurpation," &a., upon the Consti
tution and the rights of Congress and the
people; and close by more than hinting
to the people that they bare now but
ONE protection against further usurpa
tion—LiNcoms's DEFEAT AT TEE POLLS 1
This thunderbolt comes from Lincoln's
firmest supporters, and shivers his last
hope to atoms
Eff - The shoddy organ announces that
the war will close in 60 days, if the Gov
ernment will only say : "Shut up shop !
Shoulder arms!" Well, if all the shoddy
shops were shut and their keepers forced
to the front, the wa? would end in far less
than GO days. Last' week shops were
'closed tolet folks stay at home; bat this
week not a blowing shoddy will obey the
call to defend our soil from invasion ! No,
a-or ova—except our dear zany neighbor
whom the Governor lately classed among
the "enemies of the Government." If he
is as brave with the bayonet as with the
steel-pen, he'd perhaps drive rebels out of
Pennsylvania, take Richmond in a wink,
toss Atlanta, &c., into the gulf; wipe out
the last rebel grease -spot, return with Ft.
Sumter and Charleston in his poccket,
up the copperheads, and make Old Abe
President for life—or during the war!
The Gorilla Policy.
Since the removal of McClellan, the
policy of the war has gradually inclined
towards barbarism ; and especially, do we
observe that during this ,campaign our
raiding forces Lave adopted the policy of
destroying and burning private property
in the Sluth. Cities, villages, houses, are
burnt—everything is doomed to wanton
waste ; and no inquiry is made to learn
whether the property does or does not be
long to Union men.
Five times have the rebels invaded the
North ; but never until recently have
they burned private property. The re
cent burning of Chambersburg, as report
ed, looks like the adoption of the wicked,
barbarous mode of warfare. We hope,
even now, that the rebels will not be sav
age enough to engage in this wanton
practice, for such warfare mainly injures
the weak and defenceless noncombatants.
It may be consistent for Lincoln to order
or approve such a gorilla policy ; but it
would disgrace and injure even Jeff Da
vis or any other rebel to practice it, al
though adopted as a means ot4 retaliation.
il;F`' We bare heard shoddies boast that
rebel raids would do good—that they
would make votes for Lincoln in the in
vaded countless! Perhaps so; and that
may be the object of the administration
in not defending this State from invasion,
when it has all the soldiers it calls for.
But how can a free people choose to
reelect a President, who, pretending that
e can subdue the Seuth, is too weak or
too wicked to defend the worth?
A change must be made.
Or From the money- articles in the
London Times, it appears that our John
Bull cousins are buying rebel bonds at 77
to 78 cents, and our 5-20 Union bonds at
49. to 50 cents. That's the way the Eng
lish abolishers help us out of trouble
they induced their. dupes to biting upon a
happy and prosperous people.
Can they take warning?

Old Abe's changes of base arose varied
and frequent that they attract, little stun.:
tion, being looked for as: a matter of
course. But the development of hislpoli
cy at the Niagara Peace Conference, must
be carefully noted by the people, as upon
that issue rests the great queation,of the
preservation of the Union.
In his letter of August 28d, 1862, to
Horace Greeley, President Lincoln said:
"I would save the Union ; I would
save it in the shortest way Ander the
Constitution. If there be those who
would not save the Union unless they
could at the same time save slavery, I do
not agree with them. If there be those
who would not save the Union unless
they could at the same time destroy slave.
ry, I do not agree with them.
"My paramount object is to save the
Union, and not either to save or destroy
slavery. If I could save the Union with-
out freeing any slaies, I - would do it;
and if I could save it by freeing all the
slaves, I would do it; and if could save it
by freeing some and leaving others alone,
I would also do that."
He then wished to save the Union,even
with slavery in it. Now he will not even
talk about saving the Union unless he can
first destroy slavery. His paramount ob
ject then was to save the Union ; now it
is to abolish slavery, even at the risk or
loss of the Union. Referring to the last
sentence in the first paragraph above quo-
ted, we find him now at the bead of those
with whom he did not then agree.
Mere differences of opinion among peo.
ple or authorities about die beat modes of
conducting a government, amount to but
little ; but this matter is one that involves
the life or death of the Union. The war,
once for the Union—and so held to be by
Mr. Lincoln in the above quotation, he
now, prostitutes to the single primary pur
pose of freeing slaves! No friend of the
Union—no man who advocated "war for
the Union," can consistently give Lin
coln-his support since he refuses to con
sult in reference to saving the Union, but
on the same day he rejects overtures for
Peace and Union, calls for 500,000 mew
to fight for war and disunion. We say
" war and disunion," because the history
of four summer campaigns shows dearly
that with Lincoln's blundering , manage
ment and insane change of policy, disun
ion is only a matter of time, and surely
awaits us after our remaining men and
means are wasted. Continue this mon
ster another term, and destruction fol
lows.
But there is hope I Hurl the imbecile
and wicked from power; elect a I-resi
dent having ability to vigoronely conduct
war and integrity to negotiate for Peace,
and what is not already lost may 'be
saved—Peace and Union may yet return
to bless the deluded and chastised Amer
ican Nation.
A New Presidential move.
Several journals, some of them promin
ent Republican organs, which try to sup
port old Abe, give prominence to the fol
lowing significant call :
"Tbe undersigned are citizens and vo
ters of Butler county, Ohio, who were
formerly attached to the various old po
litical parties, but since the rebellion, ig
noring old issues, have cordially support
ed President Lincoln in his prosecution of
the. ar for the Constitution and the Un
ion.
The time for the election of a President
is near, and painfully impressed with the
belief, founded on reasons deemed not ex
pedient to be specified herein, that no can
didate is yet presented who can sufficient
ly concentrate the loyal vote to secure
that success upon which the best destin
ies of the republic depend ; and believing
that, especially in times of peril like these,
it is not only the privilege, but the duty,
of the people peaceably to assemble and
consult for the public welfare, do respect
fully request all the citizens of the county
who are for a vigorous prosecution of the
war to put down the wicked rebellion and
to maintain the supremacy of the Con
stitution and laws and an, unbroken na
tionality, to assemble in the city of Ham
ilton, on Saturday the Bth day of August
1864, at 10 o'clock, a. m., to consider
among other things, the following propo
sitions :
1. That Abraham Lincoln and John C.
Fremont be severally requested to with
draw their names as candidates for the
presidency.
2. To recommend to the people of oth
er counties and states, who ,regard the
unity of the republic and the supremacy
of the Constitution and laws as para.
mount to allotherpolitictil considerations,
to hold a national convention, to be com
posed of two delegates for each congres
sional district, and 'four for each state at
large, in the city of 13fiffalo, N. Y., on .
Thursday, the 22d day of Beznber next,
to nominate candidates for President and
Vice President.

The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, a Re.
publican paper, has the following, among
much more of the same sort of peace doo-
Wine: ,::
" We are aware that it has become the
fashion with a class of silly, unreflecting
men to scout the idea of any peace, and to
refuse to listen to deliberate reflection or
discussion upon the subject as an aban
donment of principle. Such men seem to
consider the present struggle as a sort of
Kilkenny fight, involving the total anni
hilation of one or the other of the parties
to it, and regard the magma of peace as
very nearly allied to treason itself. *
Congress at its first session after the com
mencement of bostilites resolved with all
the salemnity of legislation, that the war
should be prosecuted with no purpose of
aggression upon the Federal rights of the
South. The ink of the engrossing clerk
was scarcely dry before the national faith
thus pledged was violated. Three bloody
years have sealed the stultification which
was then enacted.
"The key of the great problem now be
fore this people many be found in this ques
tion : What are we fighting for ? Is it
the maintenance of the - 111 niou, or is it the
reconstruction of the Union upon a basis
of emancipation ? Are we fighting to
assert and vindicate the power of the
Federal Government, or to regulate and
and reform the domestic abuses of the
South ? In the answer to these questions
lies the solution of all the issues of war.
" We venture the opinion that if a re
liable assurance could be given to the pee
ple of the South that the Federal Constitu
tion and its strict maintenance were tha
sole ultimatum of peace, that the rebellion
would cease within three months."
Another Republican paper—the New
buryport (Mass.) Berald, publies tie
following, which is an additional sh
assi ranee
among others coming to light every day
of the breaking down of the radical ideas
of subjugation and the destruction ofslav
ery at the sacrifice of the Union :
"What we want to secure is not eman
'citation of slavery ; nor the success of
this party or that; but the nation's integ
rity—the Union as it Was. All other con
siderations are of no. consequence—not
wroth naming. Give us the Union in
peace, and we shall be capable of tak
ing care of all else. Slavery will settle it
self ; it was doing so as rapidly as it could
safely, before this war commenced. Give
us Union in peace, and the national debt
would be nothing. If it was two thous
and millions more than it is to day, the
national stock would at once advance 90
per cent. above par, and gold Would sink,
till both would come near a level. Give
as Union in peace, and we should present
such a front to the world, as to be ever
after secure against encroachments and
insults from abroad, and we should hold the
destiny of the Western continent in oar
own bands:"
In addition to this the N. Y. Times, a
leading Republican paper, says that " the
people do not requireldr. Lincoln to insist
on the abandonmentof elav'ery as essential
to peace, and thinks that he should only
have insisted on the "integrity of the
whole Union."
The Draft in IlLmwhzusette and the
Draft in New•Tork.
The more clearly to show the glaring
discrepancy in thequotas, as officially pub
fished, of New-York and /ifvesnchusetts,
under the- coming draft, we give a few
fiicts and figures.
According to the last United States
census, the population of the State of
New-York was 3,880,735. The popnlaton
of Massachusetts, by the same authority,
was 1,231,068. Or, New-York's popula
tion as compared with that of Massach
usetts was in the ratio of 3.15 to 1.
New-York, at the time mentioned, had
within her borders 809,812 males between
the ages of twenty and fitly years. Mas
sachusetts, at the same time, had male pop
ulation, between those ages, of 264,478 ;
or, the male population of New-York, be
tween the above mentioned ages, as com
pared with that of Massachusetts, was in
the ratio of 3.06 to 1.
Under the last call for men—the call for
500,000—the quota of New-York is offici
ally stated at 89,818, that of Maisachusetts,
21,670. Or in the rato of 4.12 to 1.
Taking as a basis the number of males
in each state between the ages of twenty
and fifty years, we discover that if the
uroper quota of Massachusetts is 21,00,
nder this last call, then the quota of
New-York, instead of being 88,318, should
be 68,210. That is to say, as the quota
now stands compared with that of Mas
sachusetts, we shall be compelled to furn
ish twenty-three thousand one hundred
and eight more men than can justly be
demanded from us.— World.
What a " Republican" Says.
The corruption of this administration
has become so notorious that even Repub•
lican journals are compelled to make such
confessions as the following, which is from
I,tbe columns of 'the Albany, New York,
Stateemen :
" A pack of sharks, hungry, villainous
and incorrigible, have fastened upon the
public treasury and depleted it at the rate
of millions monthly; the patronage of the
Federal Government has been bestowed
upon those'with whom the eleatori if al
lowed an exercise of choice would have
absolutely'refused all dealings, until high
places of trust are held by known and con
victed cormorants, and men driie fast hor
ses and live in freestone houses purchased
with trnitedStates girnbahlos, who oug ht

from Petersburg. The first line was Cap.'
tared with a hurrah,; then the second, but
we filled at the third line. Why?, Simply
and inly because to negro troops was in
trusted the task of taking the key of the
rebels position. So easy did the task seem
to Criiiieral Grant that he did not wish to
detect from the 'merit the negroes were
to din by having any white troops to sup
ped them if they failed. In other words,
imperiled the whole movement upon the
valor of the blacks, and seemed to be so
sure of their success that he made absol
utaly no provision for a possible failure on
thbir part. So the country has sufl'ereli
soother military humiliation because 3.1+.
Lincoln and his military agents have pro

Pretended Northwestern Conspiracy.
The Republican papers pretend that the
Administration has discovered, in the
Northwestern States,
a Conspiracy to
overthrow the Federal authority and set
up a separate government. Not a parti
cle of evidence is flirnished tending to
establish the truth tof this absurd assump
tion. This bold attempt to play upon the
credulity of the public, designed to create
panic and alarm, is intended todivert pub
lic attention from the incompetency and
tyranny of the Administration.
The fellow who cooked np this silly
story is one "Col." J..P. Sanderson, a
cheap newspaper Penny-a-liner from Phil
adelphia, who was made a Provost Mar
shal for this job. He is about as reliable
as their Howard-of-the-Times proclama
tion forger.
Hard on Lincoln.
The Peoria Zeitung, has the following
editotal on Lincoln. The Zeitung has here
tofore acted with the Republican party,
and is now the organ of that class °four
German fellow citizens _Who have 'too
much patriotism and sense to follow in

God he will be defeated too,and if he shall

The Campaign in Indiana.
The political campaign in Indiana has
opened vigorously. The Democracy have
nearly all their candidates for Congress
in the field, and from the stump they are
tearing off the mask of abolitionism, and
showing its sinister countenance, and ex
posing its miserable and unholy purpose.
Gov. Morton is terribly alarmed, and will
make a desperate effort to retain his place;
but the sovereigns of the Hoosier State,
on the Second Tuesday of October, will
hustle him into the charnel-house of re
pudiated politicians. Indiana is Demo
cratic to the core, and leads the advance
in the grand campaign against the horde
of Lincoln office-holders and public plun
derers.
rin his preliminary " Proclamation
of Freedom," issued September, 1862, Mr.
Lincoln said :
That hereafter, as heretofore, the war
will be prosecuted for the object of prac
tically restoring the constitutional rela
tion between the United States and each
of the states and the people thereof in
which states that relation is or may be
suspended or disturbed.
Mr. Lincoln now avows that hereafter
the war shall be prosecuted for the object
of practically compelling " the abandon
ment of slavery."
—lt has often been a mystery to know
why certain incompetent men were given
office by our joking President. Especially
was this the case when Dave Tod was na
med to succeed Chase in the Treasury.—
But it has been explained, thus: A mem
ber of Congress called to see Lincoln, but
found him engaged. Finally the door was
opened, and Tod came out. Lincoln was
in high glee, and slapping the member on
the back in his style of low familiarity,
said: "Dave Tod, sir, tells the best story
of any man in Ohio! "
—The news from Mexico is of unusual
importance. Gen. Uraga has proposed
terms of surrender to the Emperor Max
imilian, which have been accepted, and so
far as that important command is concern
ed, peace is restored to a large section of
Mexico.

much space to it, and hope that our read

Hancock is President, has been ordered
to investigate the causes of the failure and

others again aro of the opinion that one of
the division commanders of the Ninth
Corps is to be held accountable.
