Make your 1001 bosom quail
Quail, with patriot doubt and wonder,
An it hears at home, the shaine

To the Northern blood andlame.

Letter from the Venerable Josiah Quincy
to President Lincoln.
lion. Abraham Lincoln:
Sin : Old age has its privileges, which I hope
_this letter will not exceed. But I cannot refrain
from expressing to you my gratification and my
gratitude for your letter to the Illinois Convention ;
happy, timely, conclusive, and effective. What you
say concerning emancipation, your proclamation
and your course of proceeding in relation to it, was
due to truth and your own character—shamefully
wailed as it has been. The development is an im
perishable monument of wisdom and virtue.:
*Negro slavery and passibility of emancipation
have, been subjects of my thought for more than
seventy years; being first introduced to it by-the
debates in the Convention of elassaichusetts for
adopting the Constitution, in'l7BB, which I attended.
rhad, subsequently, opportunities of knowing the
views on that subject,' not only Of such men as
Hamilton, King, Jay, and Piniikering,lbut also of dis
tinguished slaveholders—of both Pickneys, of Wm.
Smith, of South Carolina and of many others.
With the first of these I lad personal intercourse
and acquaintance. I can truly say that I never
knew the individual, slaveholder or non-slaveholder,
who did notexpress a detestation of it, and the desire
and, disposition to get rid of it. The only difficulty,
in case of emancipation, was, What shall we , do
for the master, and what, shall we do with the
slavet A satisfactory answer to both these ques
liens has been, until now. beyond the reach and
the grasp of hunian wiedoin" and power.
Through, the direct- influence of a good and 6,ra
clatia.God, the people of the United States have
been invested with the power, of answering satis-,
factozilY beth these_questions, and also of providing
for the difficulties incident to both, of which if they
fail to avail themselves thoroughly and conclusive
ly,.they will entail shame on - themselves, and sor
row and misery on many generations.
It is impossible for me to regard the power thus
ifinteirteithiripetide otherwise than as proceeding
from theklireat hifideitce Of a superintendins Provi
-4.lence who ever makes those mad whom he intends to
destroy. ;
The only' possible why in wnich slaveri, after it
had grown to such height, could have been abolished,
is that 'which Heaven has adopted.
. Your instrumentality in the work is to you a
subject of special glory,. favor, and felicity. The
madness of secessiOn and its inevitable consequence,
• civil war, will, in their result, give the right and
the povver of universal emancipation sooner or later.
If the United States do not understand and fully
appreciate the boon thus bestowed en them, and
tail to improve it to the utmost extent of the power
granted, they will prove recreant to.themselves and
posterity.
I write under the impression, that the victory of
the United States in this war is inevitable.
'Compromise is •impossible. Peace on any other
basis would be the establishment of two nations,
each hating the other, both military, both neceasa
sly hostile, their territories interlocked, with a ten
dency to never-ceasing hostility. Can we leave to
posterity -a- more cruel inheritance, or one more
. hopeless of happiness and prosperity?
Pardon' the liberty I have taken in this letter,
and do riot feel obliged in any way to take notice of
it ;and believe me,
Ever your grateful and obliged servant,

ilitorgants Chief of Staff and his Mistbr
tune. .
[From the Dayton Journal, Oct. 3.7
Colonel Allston, John Morgan's chief of staff, has
been, paroled, and is wending his way South. The
Columbus Journal published a story about him,
which went to ' show that - he was a repentant rebel.
Heepoke in desponding terms of the rebellion," said
our cotemporary, but that "the rebels regard the
:mom of the peace men of the Vallandighan school
as their only hope of being victorious. He looked
uponVallendigham as a true friend of the rebels, and
would hail his election as a proniising indication of
a speedy termination of the war, by the withdrawal
of our armies from the rebel States." This rebel
Colonel Allston decorated in Secesh uniform, cut a
large swath in Columbus before he left, on Wednes
day, and nobody rebuked him ; but on his way to
Zanesville, via the Central Ohio Railroad, he fell
into the hands of one at the faithful. The incident
was described to um by an eye-witness.
Colonel Allston sat with a brawny Copperhead
on one side of the car vomiting out treason, which
his fellow-traitor meekly accepted. Colonel Gran
ville Moody, with his daughter, sat opposite-him,
reading ,a newspaper. Colonel M. was restive, but
restrained' himself for some time. At last the rebel
colonel—in full rebel uniform—who talked loudly
and defiantly, evidently desirous to attract atten
tion—said that it was "the duty of the peace Demo
trate ;to elect Vallandigham. It was necessary to
save them from Lincoln's curled tyranny. It was
the moat damnable tyranny on the ce of the
earth.. Three months hence, you ple of the
North will appeal to us (rebels) kuppliantly to come
up and rescue you from Lincoln's despotism.
--
Hardly was the sentence concluded when Colonel
Moody, flaming with indignation, dashed his paper
to the floor, sprung across the car, seized the ipso
lent rebel by the throat, and thrusting his knuckles
into his face, hissed through his, teeth : " You in
famous scoundrel;'how dare you insult my Govern
ment with your treason 7 How dare you pollute
this atmosphere with your insults to my country I
Shut your mouth, or. I'll crush every bone in your
infernal body." Then the' colonel seized the rebel
by, the breeches. with force enough almost to raise
him from his seat. The rebel hastily, and with
considerable trepidation, stammered,
Moe: sir!„
Quoth the colonel : " Yes, you wi ll stop, you in
fernal rebel ! Stop now, or throw you out of the
window." The train was going at twenty miles an
hour. "I know your rights as a paroled , prisoner.
You are under the protection of the Government;
that does not authorize you to abuse and insult it.
Yen have Ahmed your privilege. No man in rebel
uniform shall abuse my Government in my hearing
without paying the penalty of his insolence. By
this time Allston's big Copperhead friend attempted
to say something.
"Net a word from you!" said Colonel M ; "you
miserable Copperhead ; youeat here and listened to
this rebel's treason' wi thout resenting it. If you had
a grain of manhood you would have saved me the
necessity of. Interfering. Not a word from' you, or
I'll take you in hand. You are meaner than this
rebel.". That settled the fellow, and he subsided.
A third attempted to interpose, and was summarily
dried up in a similar manner. The rebel colonel
sank b into the corner of his seat, and tried to
lookcomposed; but his mind was eVideritly " all
tore up." He did not even whisper again while the
gallant Moody was on the cars. Col. Moody was
right: .He had shed his blood for his country; knew
that a paroled rebel had no right to insult the Go-
Vernment which protected him, and justly,felt it - hit

General R. W. Johnson (says the Louisville
Journal), has been exceedingly ill for some Weeks,
and, upon the army's first arrival at Chattanooga,
spoke to General lbisecrans about the necessity of
his obtaining leave of absence for a time. "Yes,"
said General R., " you need it very musk , and you
can have it, but we shall probably have a battle very
soon." " Ah, then," said General J., ahallatay,

—A good deal of conjecture was lately rife as to
the causes of the assembly in Paris of the principal

FOR TRE UNION 13TILL.—U01. John K.
Murphy, of the 29th Regiment PennsylvardwVolun
leers, will support the Union ticket in the coming
contest. Col. - M. was taken prisoner at one of the
battles of Winchester, and When- offered to be libe
rated on
h is parole indignantly.refused, regarding
the rebels as armed rioters arrayed against the con
[Muted authorities. COL Murphy was taken to a
Southern prison, where he suffered enough to break
down any man who had not an iron constitution, Be
could see from his prison -windows, every morning,
half famished children collected in front thereof,
holding up their attenuated hands and arms for a
few morsels of . prison fare that might be thrown
from the window. Col. Murphy, half starved as he
was, shared his fare with the disoonsolat groupe of
children, Hg was defiant to the rebels, regarding
them, in their true light, as rioters.
After several months imprisonment, he was libera.
ted, and he returned to his native city , Philadelphia,
broken down somewhat in constitution, but not in
spirit. Before the recent Convention of that party
that has assumed the name of Democracy, Colonel
Murphy-was a candidate.
His name being mentioned, one - of the " wire
pullers " said: "What , ! vote for himl No, indeed !
Why he organized and led a whole regiment against ua!"
Thie came to ..Colonel Murphy's ears, and to his
utter astonishment he •found himself in the' wrong
party. Re withdrew from it, and ranked hie time
honored name with scores of intelligent and influ
ential Democrats, who rally around the old Rag, and
its great standard•bearer, Andrew G. Curtin.
Colonel Murphy says the. present Democratic par
ty occupies the same ground exactly as the Federal
party did in the war organ.
