I'EACE DEMOCRATS ABOLITIONIZED, Wonderful as it mny uppcur it in never thcluK true, tbut a large portion of the Pence party have been converted iuto war demo crats, and many of them even into abolition ists. This wouderful revolution litis Icen brought ubout within a few months lv Gcu. McClellan, who not liking the Chicago plat form, as construed by the friends of his col league, Mr." Pendleton, the candidate for Vice President, established a platform of his own, which he promulgated in his letter of acceptance. The result was a regular rumpus among the faithful, headed by "Wood, Vallandigham & Co., who were opposed to the war under any circumstances. Such, iudecd-, appeared to be (he almost universal sentiment among thcjleaders and the news papers in this and the neighboring counties without scarcely a singlo exception. Their t landing motto was "War is disunion," a misapplied quotation from tho lamented Douglass. Hut Vailandigham, Wood and the rest of the unconditional peace party hare been silenced, and Pendleton himself dare not open his mouth. As in evidence of what we assert we quote the following ex tract from a letter of Gen. McClcrnand a leading war democrat of Illinois, and now an able General in the army, which is exten sively copied in the McClcllnn papers. It was a reply to a letter of invitation from a Democratic Committee, and they adopt the General's language with approval and as part of their political creed. He is for "pre serving the Union at all hazards, ecen if Hood thouldjlotc, I ream it expended and Slavery BWEn away. The following is the extract : "As to my choice for President, I am for George B. McCIellan; how, indeed, could I be otherwise r lie is a life long Democrat ; o am I. Ho is a War Democrat, and would continue the use of force as long as necessa ry to put down the rebellion ; so would I. Like Jackson, he, would preserve the Union at all hazards, even if blood should How, treasure be expended, uud slavery swept away ; so would I." Now this is good Union doctrine, such as President Lincoln and his friends proclaim every day, and for which the Peace Demo crats have heretofore constantly abused him him and his administration. Strange as it may appear, they are willing, not only to shed blood, and expend treasure, but even to abolish slavery. Will Mr. Pendleton sub scribe to that doctrine. We will wager a new suit that he will never do any such thing. ' tW In Pennsylvania the home vote is so cloaa that it will require the official returns to determine how the State has gouD. The Soldiers' vote already received shows, how ever, that the majority, when all the returns hhiiU have been received, will not fall below 15,000 in the State. Besides, we have gain ed three members of Congrfts, and elected a majority of both branches of the Legisla ture, on the home vote, and tho indications are that the soldiers' vote will give ua two more member? of Congress. In Ohio, the latest returns show that the Union men have carried the State by about 33,000 ou the home vote. The soldiers' vote will probably increase it to 85,000. Seven, teen Union Congressmen are elected to 2 Peace democrats. (The delegation in the present Congress stands 14 Cops to 5 Union men. The-notorious Cox and Long, num bers of tho present Congress, have both been defeated. The most gratifying result of ail is that in Indiana. The copperheads carried the State last year by 13,000 or 20,000 majority, and our friends everywhere were disposed to concede the State to them again. But we have been agreeably disappointed, and the result is thus summed up by Gov. Morton himself in a dispatch to Gov. Curtin, on Saturday last, which wc copy from the Hur rikburg Telegraph : IxniASAPOLjs, Oct 15. Got. A. O. Curtin We have eight mem Iwrs of Congress, being a gain of four.

It w a bold charge with tho so called Democratic leaders during the progress of tho political campaign in which tho people arc now involved, to assert that tho war is unjust, that tho sacrifice is too great, and that peace must be had on any terms. But who began the war ? Can or will these lea. ders answer this question ? Whi'.o they are hesitating let us ask the people to ponder these facts : livery State which seceded from tho Union, was governed at the time by representatives of the Democratic party in tho Executive and legislative Departments thereof. Tho first gun ever fired at the flag of the United State's, by an insurgent enemy, was from men professedly Democratic, holding position in tho Military Department of the Federal Union, and at tho time under the protection of a Democratic Administration The slaveholders' rebellion was armed by a Democratic Secretary of War. The vessels to servo as piratical cruisers lor a Southern Confederacy wero turnished by a Democrat ie Secretary of tho Navy. A Democratic President confessed, when armed rebellion was precipitated, that he had no power to quell insurrection or coerce a seceding State. Who liEOAN tub wau ? Let us look at dates : fVA KSSIOX. 17th Nov. 1600 South Carolina seceded. 18th Nov. Legislature of Georgia appro priated 1,000,000 to arm the State. Steed cd lUtli January, 15501.

During all the period quoted nbove, the Democratic party was ruling, having a President, a majority in tho Senate, tho Su preme Court sympathizing particularly with the Democratic leaders, tho Army and Navy largely composed of Democrats, and yet with all this power, armed rebellion show. ed itself and defied the civil as well ns the military force of the Ooverutncnt. Aro the people willing to trust tho-Democratic lea ders again with the power of the Govern ment ? Wo think not nay, wo are certain that they will not. Nor will it be hard for the people to understand from the record just quoted, Who xikgan thk wau ? CifTiiK Marvellous. We sometimes amuse ourselves iu looking over the "Age," the "Patriot and Uuion,'' anil other papers of Butternut propensities. It is wonderful how much of the marvellous they serve up to their readers. We know that rabid par tisan papers of all classes often deal in ex travagancies ; but a regular Butternut organ presumes amazingly upon the capacity or its readers, in swallowing the wonderful and and marvellous. It is not surprising, that a platform that favors both peace and war, should bo looked upon as nothing remarka blo by such persons. I5r.Thc Congressional vote of tho 11th District stands thuB on the home vote. Tho soldiers' vote will, no doubt, greatly increase the Union majority : Majorities for Georgo F.

Democrats whose Democracy has stood the test of ex perience, such as Holt, Dickinson, Grant, Sherman, Rosecrans, Meagher, &c, &c, show that one-half of the war is carried on by the ablest men of the old Democratic party. Aud these men support President Lincoln as tho only mau who can under the circumstance bring about a speedy peace. J-tfOne of the wisest politician in the State of New-York, and one of the purest of our patriots, said, with great force, on the stump last week : "Did any man be lieve that a man elected on tho Chicago platform was going to raise men and means to carry ou this wart Gov.

I hastened from Wiuchcsrcr, where 1 was on my icturu from Washington, found the armies between Middletowu and Newtown, having been driven back ubout 4 miles. 1 here took the affair in hand and quickly united the corps, formed a compact lino of tiattlo just in time to repulse au attack ot the enemy, which was handsomely done at ubout 1 v.

Ppociid Corrcdpondrnoa of Tho CliU(fo Tribune. Nashville, Oct. 7, 1804. I this morning met an old acquaintance, the Hon. Josi phua Cays. Clcuk ol the Geor gia Houho of Representatives, and late edi tor ot The AUunta iiegitter, and still later of The Georgia Timet. He has always beeu nn opponent ofthe Jeff Davis administration and in favor of a reconstruction, or rather tho restoration of the Union, but he dare not avow his sentiments. On the captnre of Atlanta ho wrote an article, and publish ed it in his paper, The Georgia 7'itnet, in favor of a return to thu Union, and there- suit was that Jell Davis issued an order for his immediate arrest; but he escaped to our lines, and is goinn to Illinois. He states that to-day, threo-fourths of the pcoplo arc in lavor ol an immediate return to tho Union; but they daro not speak out, as their lives would pay tho forfeit if they did. There is no such thing as freedom of speech in Dixie; "tho government of Jeff Davis is tho worst despotism on earth," are uis very worus. Mr. Cays hns had an opportunity to un der6tand the motives of the Rebel leaders; hi' declares upon his own personal knowl edge that their object in entering in this Rebellion was to establish an Aristocracy. The wealthy people of the South believe it degrading to them to associate with the mud-sills of the North; and they determined to form au oligarchy, which will place them above the masses ol tnc people. As Clerk of tho Georgia Tlouso of Repre sentatives, ho is familiar with the views of both houses arc in favor of a return to the Union a portion from principal, and the remainder becauso they have lost all hope IIo states that the leaders only keep the army together by promising that if McClel Ian is elected Vailandigham will be his Sec retary of State, and then .the South will be given its independence. Gov. Brown is for reconstruction or re storation. Mr. Cays avers, ho had, four weeks since, a 4ong conversation with hun on the subject, and knows of what he spealrs. He knows, also, that tlio Governor has lost ull hope of establishing the independence of the Conteileracv, uud that ho is anxious lor a return to the t'uiun nt the c&rliest praeti cable period. 1 nsKecl: "Suppose when Kichmoml is taken tho President shall issue an Amnesty embracing ull except a few of tho leaders say a score and proposes at the same time that the question of Slavery shall be left to the Supreme Court to decide who are freed by thu action of the war-aud who are not what will bo the result?" . His answer was: "They will accept it willingly." a i men asKea mm wiiat would bo tuo re suit of an honest decisiou as to thu subject so lar as tnc negro was concerned. "Those slaves who have availed themselves of tho Emancipation Proclamation and sought the protection ofthe army v, ill bo free: those who have not, will be held as slaves; about half will thus be emancipated. iiut it muiicrs not wno win uc lett, in am very, tho negroes are so demoralized and so inspired with the desire of freedom, that the institution would bo worthless-it could never be resurrected." Mr. Cays will go to Illinois, bearing a let ter ol introduction to Uov. 1 aU-s. He savs the Rebellion can't survive thu re-election of Mr. Lincoln, and could not survive the election of anv man who would be truo to the Union, llo asserts that Gen. Grant did not exaggerate when ho declared that the Confederacy had robbed tho cradle ami the grave. Able bodied men were not to be found iu the Confederacy outside of tho army.
