JOHN C. ANtRISON, In the lest number of the War Press, that reached
`us to-day, in an an editorial on " The Welkin Rail-
Noe. 1 AND 3 NORTE SIXTH STREET, road," I read the assertion that the enemy, in re
cognising the value of this road; has made repeated
XANIYPACTITBSR AND DIALER IN attempts to drivathe Tinton forces-. from off it, but
that all such attempts have signally failed to drive
ffirniNNELPS FINE FURNISHING GOODS. the 2d Corps from its entrenchments. This is maul.'
featly unjust. The ad Corps does not, and never did,'
OoNSTANTLY ON RAND, "hold the Weldon Railroad." It is the sth Corps ,
LOIN,
_NDSLTIIf, and PLANING SHIRTS, and that gained possession of the road, and which has
3RAWKRS. coLLess„_tiTocKS, TRAVELLING held it against all the attemptibof the enemy to die.
MINTS, TIES, WRAPPERS. Ato., 40., lodge it, with one exception, and the sth Corps now,
eV BIS OWN NANUFACTIIIia , holds it, being entrenched upon it in such a position
AOBIBBY
A LSO `
as to render its repossession by the enemy an int.
oLo'fas - possibility. • :Thebth Corps has received but little of
• WIMPS

A Question to the, Belief Committee.
To the Editor of The Press:
Stu : An article appenred in the columns of the
Philadelphia inquirer of the eth instant on the sub
ject, - of reCittits. IC states There Is one Impor
tant fact that Philadelphia, recruits should not for
get—vie :-.that if they havoc themselves credited to
organisations in other cities .and States, their.fami
lies lose the benefit of the relief money so generous
ly voted by the city of ,Philadelphia.”
Now, we would beg leave to inquire of-the writer .
(who states that he is attached to the Belief Com
mission) hol it happens.that the families and chil
dren of the large number of colored soldiers no-
oredited to this city and- State are
- deprived of thii.
relief? Application heabeen made frequently, and
always refused, as fan ns wo have heard. The re
sult has- been that numbers of women, with large
families of Ohildren, finding themselves unable AO..
support them , have to do what our people geners,ll7
detest—rescirti to the Almshouse, their husbands.:
. being absent battling for Elie Glivernment,
: that, with their aid, they may succeed in quelling,
this stupendous rebellion.

THE WILLOONTIGNT
.But, auspicious as the occasion is, it has neverthe
less' failed to bring out some whom we might have
expected here. Why are they. nothere to rejoice In
the victories that Will thrill the hearts of the lovers
of freedom throughout the world. Alas, that it meat
.be confessed, it is party spirit that holds them aloof.
All of them are partisans. Some are Republicans,
ho cannot rejoice in the national victories because,
this war, for the life of the nation, is not, in all re. •
'vette, conducted accordlng_to • their - own -peculiar' •
radical ideas and theories. They want guarantee's
for swift, and universal, and complete emancipas .
tion, or they do not want the nation saved. Others
Stay away because they want to be assured that, in
coming out of the revolutionary storm r the 'Ship of
State will be found exactly in the same condition as
when the tempest assailed it, or they do not want
the ship saved at all, as if anybody could give such
guarantees in the name of a people of thirty milliona.•
Others are Democrats. They recetved from their
fathers the axiom that only Democrats could cage.
the country, and they must sieve. it' by.Demooratiti.
formulae and combinations which the progress- of
the age has forever exploded. They.cannot oomoup,
to celebrate achievements whicheronetren their nays
row and hereditary bigotry.
Others, of both the Republican and. Democratic
parties, aro willing that the nation shall be saved,
provided it is done by some ono of their chosen and
idolized chiele, which chief they mutually denounce
and revile. They cannot hence. Grant, and - Sher
man, and Farragut, and:P.orter, because by such
homage they fear. that Fremont and. Meathella,n's
fame may be eolipeed. •
Nevertheless; there are enough hero of the right
sort, [" Yes, that's true,"] enough of men who once
Were Republicans but whir, taking' that word is a
partitan sense, are Republicans no longer, and men
mho onoe were Demeerats, bat who, taking that
' word s in its narrow application, ara Demoorats no
' longer, all of, whom Fare now. Union men, because
they found out at,thelraginning of this tremendous
civil war, Or at. some perloatn-its progress, that no
man, no pasty, no formula, no creed, could save the
Union, but that only the people could eats it; and
they could save:it only by ceasing to berome s tarti- -
sans and becoming patriots and_Union men.' [ core
for the Union.], .
th
Yes,
y friends ; when this war shall be ended in
the restoration of _the Union, no man then living
will exult in the recollection that during its conti
nuance he was either a Radical or a Conservative,
a Republican or a Democrat, but , every man will
claim to have been throughout an unreserved and
unconditional Union•man. •
But why should party spirit, ,especially at this
juncture,. divide the Amerpan people. , And why
should I, a member of the ' Executive Administra
tion, allude to it on such an occasion as this 1 The
answer la at hand. The Constitution of our coun

TEE TILBeB:ST NO CONSION PRESIDSNTIAL IMIC-
TioN—Boat NATIONS AIIEIIIN.ED BY PASTIES.
- First, I berg you to remem ber that the present IS no
common or customary PresidenUal election. It oca
curs in the midst of civil*ar, arising out of a dis
puted summation to the Executive power. Disputed
successions. are , the, most, frequent causes ,of civil
ware, notionly in republics, but even in monarehiel.
A dispute about - the succession - of the Preeldent
pus loolcally begets an abortive or a real' revolution
in each ohs of the Spanish and American 'Repub
lics. So
,the disputed , succession 'of the Spanish
throne begot that memorable thirty-years war which
cenvulsed - all -Europe. A dispute.whether Juarez.
am the lawful President, brought on the present
civil war, with the consequence of French interven
tion in litelico. A dispute whether the present
King or Denmark, who succeeded to the throue last
winter,thlawful heir to the Daddes of Schleswig
and 'Holstein, brought about the -civil war la that
enuntry, which, through German intervention, has
just nuer'iended with, the dismeniberment of the
.Lanitti Kingdom. It is remarkable, alga, that (nail

The Democratic party, of course leaving off the
• loyal 'Union Democrats, opposed the election of
Abraham Lincoln in 1880. In doing so, they di
vided and organized in three columns. One, a
treasonable column of State-rights disunion Da
mocrate, under Breekthridge. A second, a loyal
:Northern column, under Douglas. The third, a
conciliatory eying column, under Sohn Bell, who
bee since .joined. the insurgents. We therefore
invited the two , loyal columns to combine with
the- Republican party to. oppese the disunion
Derdoomtle 'column, They declined. On the eve
Of the election in 1880 I told the followers of
Douglas • and of Bell that When the election
should have closed' they would find 'that they
had inadvertently favored disunion and rebellion.
They persisted, and the attempted revolution came.
Disunion then presented itself, in the practical form
of preventing Abraham Unbent from assuming the
Executive - authority , . Thus the 'Democratic party
produced that 'calamity, the Southern Democrats
acting
e). from design, the Northam Democrats pas •
give t hroe inadvertent's: The disputed succession
• still remains unadjusted. A new election has come
on. For a time, the Northern Democrats, with no
table exceptkme, gave a more or less liberal support
to the Government, against the Democratic insur
gents of the• South. But the saute Democratic fortes
which:figured-in the election of 1800, now appear in
the political field, with positions and policy un
changed since that time, as I think, except for the
worse. The Southern Democrat is still in arms
under the usurper at Richmond. The Douglas and
columns, - consolidated,:are' found at Chicago,
and all three of the parties are compassing the re,
jectlon of the Constitutional President,of the United
States. They agree not only in this attempt, but
they. assign the seine reasons for it, namely, that
Abraham. Lincoln's &tyrant. . w
They agree, alto, that the real usurper at Rich
mond is blameless and pure ; 41east the Richmond
Democracy affirm-it, and the Chicago Democracy
do not o..insay - '. To me, therefore, the Democracy
at Richmond and• the Demooracpat Chicago,
Gear and Pompey, seem to retain all their original
family resemblance.- They are very much ,alike—
especially Pompey. But it is not in mere externals
that-their simMrity. lies. They-talk very much
alike, as I . haye • already shown you. .When you
consider that among the Democrats at Chicago the
Inditina'Dembertite were present, who have im
ported arms to.resist the national authority and de
test the national laws, and that all the Democrats
there assembled agreed to justify that proceeding, .I
think you will, agree with ins that, the Richmond
Democrats and the Chicago Democrats have lately
come to act very much alike.

I sball•now go further andtprove to you that they
not only, have a common policy, and a common way
of defending it, but they have even adopted thst
policy in concert with each other. Yod know that
when the Chicago Convention Was approaching in
July last, George Sanders,Clement C. Clay, and.l'.
.P: Holcomb appeared at te Clifton House, on the
Canada bank of the piagara river, fully invested
with the confidence and acquainte d with the pur-

ter with these emissaries of Jefferson Divis.• Here .
. Is the fruit of that conference, and no one can deny
the authentioityof my evidence. ' It is extracted
from the London Times, the common organ . of. all
the enemies of the United States. The New York
correspondent of the London Times, writing from
Niagara Falls, under date of August 8, says
" Clifton Home has become a centre of negotia
tions between the Northern friends of peace and
:Southern agents, Which propose, a withdrawal of &V.
.ftwences from the arbitrament of the sword.” The
correspondent then goes'entoexplain that " an effort
is to be made to nominate a candidate for the Presit ,
*clammy on the ground of an armistice and a Conven
tion of the States, and to thwart by all possible
means the efforts of Mr. Lincoln for rmelection.”
Mark now, that on the eth of August,lBB4, North
ern Democrats and Richmond agents agree upon
three things to be done at Chicago.
Namely : 1. The withdrawal of the differences
between the Government, and the insurgentsfrom
the arbitrament of the sword. 2. A nomination for
President of the United States on a platform - of an
armistice and ultimately a Convention of the
States. 8. To thwart by all possible means the re- -
election Of Abraham Lincoln.
Such a conference,•held in 'a neutral country, be
tween professedly loyal citizens of the United Statens
and the agents of the Richmond traitors in arms,
has a very suspicious look. Bat let that pass. Po
litical elections must be free, and therefore they
justly•exouse many extravagances. 'We have now
seen what the agents of Pompey and Omar agreed
at Niagara that Pompey should do at Chicago.
Here le what he actually did :
' Resolved, That this Convention does explicitly de
glare, as the sense of the American people, that,
after four yearesof failure to restore the by

been agreed upon by the Richmond agents al Niagara,
namely, they pronounced for an abandonm ent., .

.
The chief complaint against the President Is that
be 3,111 not accept peace °tithe beets of Integrity
'Of 'the 'Union; without having alenthe abandonment
ofelavery. Whem and where have the insurgents of
„fired him.peace on the basis of the integrity of the
Union? Nobody has offered it. The rebels never will
offir They are determfned and pledged to rule this
Republic or ruin it. I told you here a year ago that
practically slavery tom no longer re question ; Merit
wasperishing.under the operation of the war. That
ateertion has been confirmed.
The Union men in all the slave States' that we
have delivered are even more anxious than we are
to abolish slavery. Witness Western Virginia.,
Maryland, Missouri, Louisiana, Tennessee, and
Arkansas. Jefferson Davis tells you is effect the
same thing. Besays that it is not slavery, but in
dependence and sovereignty, for which-he is con
tending. There is good reason for this. A hundred
dollars In gold is only a yearaparobase of the labor
of the working. man Inavier part, of the .llnited
States. At less than half that price we could buy
all the: slaves in the country. Nevertheless :our
opponents want a distinct exposition of, the 'Plaid
denVa views on the ultimate solution of he slaVery .
question.
-Why do they want it! For the same reason that
the Pharisees and Sadduceee wanted an autherttas •
five resolution of the questions of the casuistry whisk
arose in their day. One of those sects believed In a
Kingdom to come,' and the other dented the resur
rection of the dead. Nevertheless, they walked to
gether in loving accord in search of instruction con
cerning the spirlt-world. "Master," said they,
"there was a man of our nation who married's wife*
and died, leaving six brothers. These brothers suc
cessively married. the widowed woman, and after
wards died ; and, laet of all, the woman died also;
In the resurrection, which of the seven shall have'
this woman to wife 1"
Now- what was It to , them whether one or • all
•
sbould'have the woman to wile in Heavent It could
be nething to the Sadducees in any case. What was
it to any human being on this side of the grave
What e was it to any. human being in Heaven except •
the woman and her seven husbands'? Absolutely
nettling, Yet they would have en answer. And they
received one. The answer was that, while in this
mortal state men and women shall never cease to
mares , sad to die, there will be in the resurrection
neither death nor marrying, or giving -In-marriage.'
Although altogether unauthorized to Speak for •
the President upon hypothetical questions, I think
I can give an answer upon the subject of slavery at
the Present gay—an answer which will be explicit,
and I hope not altogetheir'unsatisfactory. While.
the rebels; continue to wage war against the Go

end. 'When the lusurgents shall have - disbanded
their armies and laid down their arms, the war will

isting, Including those which affect slavery, will
cease also, and all the moral, economical, and po
litical questions affecting slavery as others which
shall then be existing between individuals and
States and the Federal Government., whether they
arose before the civil war began, or whether they
grew out of it, will, by force of the Constitution,
pass over to the arbitrament of oourtsof law, and
