Bro. Sw.or, of the Washiugton Review,
copies our notice of Lieutenant Evan-+' "re

Bro. JONES, how can you talk
so? The editor of the Republican was
among the first to rush to the wars.
as early as 186 i►, we saw him 'gallant

and charging with a lamp behind a
banner, upon which was inscribed
"down with Union savers." We know
scores of the same 'dud of patriots
that have served out their time and
are now resting on their laurel.
OUGHT TO BE RAISED.
The Company.of Volunteers from this
County, under the late call, should have

but for the lack of co op tion among
those who professed to be lire tidly to its
early organization. Let those who have
been charged with the duty of enlisting
men, or who have undertaken it under.
.State auspices, move at once and actively
in the matter, and fill up the ranks with
out further delay.
`The confession of Mr. Lincoln to
the Border State men that the Abolition
pressure upon him was severe, and his ad
mission that he could not afford to lose
the support of that infamous faction, is
Well calculated to impress the reflecting
mind with despondency. The idea that
such unworthy men, such traitors to the
country, have a power over the" President,
which he acknowledges, is sad in the ex
treme, and much, very much, to be regret . -
ted. If Dir. Lincoln had the moral cour
age to throw Off these Abolition Disunion
lets and to plade a few of the choice spirits
in Fort Warren or some military prison, he
would add to his strength largely among
the people. The best move he could make
for the Union and his own success, would
be to throw oLthe' Abolitionists, at once

Aftr'The above mentioned complaint,
"nothing else". and "nothing shorter," re
stored the intrepid EvAisrs to his home and
"anxious" friends. His "eyes of flame"
and "cool, undaunted breast," his brawny
arm and heroic example are permanently
lost to the service, but his "bacon" is in a
state of elegant preservation. How.much
better is this than to have marble telling
the story,--is'nt it, Lieutenant?
we believe it will lead to emancipa
;non by order of the federal author
ities, or to the dissolution of the
Union, which must speedily produce
the same result.

i erto prosecuted, is but a wanton waste

and worse than of conscience and char

Union and Constitution which nceer
have existed, and which, by all the•laws
of justice and huinanity, should in their
present form, be at once and forever
overthrown."
