"While the Army is lighting, yen, as
Citizens, see that the War is prosecuted
for the preservation of the union and
Constitution, for your nationality and
your Rights as Citizens.".. , -61E0. B.
IffeCLBLLAN.
PARTY INOONESTENOY.
The war was declared and carried on,
originally, for the restoration of the
Union and the supremacy of the Constitu
tion. Who is bold enough to contend that
these are now the cardinal principles and
aims of the men st the helm of affairs?
Notwithstagding this, notwithstanding
the fact, everywhere apparent, that the
primary purpose of the Administration is
the extirpation of slavery, regardless of
its rights and protection under the laws
and Constitution, and regardless of th e
question of the loyalty or disloyalty of
those to be affected by the course of those
who control the war, the Abolition press,
with singular perversity, charge that the
Conservative men of the country, who
wish the war carried on for the objects
originally declared, with a design to di
vide Northern sentiment on the subject
of the war! Nay, they even presume to
brand with DISLOYALTY those who are ex
erting themselves for the laubable purpose
of confining the struggle to its great pri
mary and patriotic aims. Was ever in
consistency more apparent,—was ever e
frontery more brazen ?
The recent expression of the sentiments
of the people of the North, at the ballot
box, ought to convince the Administra
tion of the folly and mischievous tendency
of its course, and should be regarded as
a significant indication of the temper of
the people, and of what they expect in the
future management of the war. Northern
-sentiment, with a few unimportant excep
tions, was united in the declaration of the
war and in the purpose to wage it at every
hazard and cost of life and treasure, till
the 'Union was restored in its original
strength and force. This platform all
good citizens could stand upon. While
this purpose was steadily pursued, while
the question of the negro and his fate and
tartunes, was ignored, no opposition was
manifested except by the Abolition fanat
ics ; but, alas 1 bow is it now? The Ne
gro is made to figure as the prominent ob
ject! How little do the Fanatics who
now, unfortunately, have the control of
the Administration, care for the restoration
of the Union as it was? Indeed, it is
painfully apparent, from the open decla
rations of many of these men, that the
restoration of the old Union is what they
least desire. They are heard everywhere
denouncing this wish and aim of the best
and truest patriots of the country ! The
prospect for the future, has not, we ad
mit, a cheering aspect while the present
rulers are at the helm. The principles, so
reckless and dangerous, promulgated by
President Lincoln in his two last Procla
mations, seem to have awakened the slum
bering apprehensions of the people, and
called forth, from the Conservative States,
their recent overwhelming condemnation.
The dangerous tendency of many of the
principles contained in these Proclama
tions are as forcibly as they are truly de
nounced by Judge CuRTIS as bein g calculated
to make the President "absolute master
of the LIVES, the LIBERTY, and the PROPER
TY OF THE PEOPLE, with power to delegate
this mastership to such of his satraps as
he might select, or as might be forced upon
his credulity or his fears !"
,We 'trust the President and his advisers
will profit by this expression of the people,
and fail back upon his originally declared
purposes in the commencement of the
war, and thus again command the united
exertions of the people to put down this
atrocious rebellion.
RELEASED POLITIOAL PRISONERS.
A number of gentlemen from the west
passed through Pittsburgh a few days ago,
having recently been released from the
Old Capital Prison, Washington City,
where they have been confined for nearly
three months as State prisoners. Their
names are Hon. Andrew D. Duff, of Ben-
Judge of the Circuit Court in his
District, arrested while holding Court ;
Hon. Jno. H. Mulkey, of Cairo, 111.,
.Tudge of the Court of Common Pleas ; Dr.
Marcus L. Ross, of Tamarao, Ill.; D. A.
Mahoney, Esq., of Dubuque, lowa, editor
of the Dubuque Herald, and D. Sheward,
Esq., of Fairfield, lowa, editor of a week
ly paper there. The two gentleman last
named have been kept in the Old Capitol
prison since the 21st of August and the
others since the sth of September, previous
to which they had been kept for some time
at Cairo.
They were arrested on warrants signed
by the Secietery of War, but in which no
charge was sit forth.

THE GALLLIPTILIEHTAVAIW TEN:
DER TAREWELL I
stugtr
4 slrE THAT HAIM! TZARS, IPII.IIIPARE
To sumo litirsidowy,
We - reproduce below, from the "Greene
County Republican" of August 13th, 1861,
the touching words of parting ,of the
noted and notable soldier who now figures
OTI its tripod :
"Our beloved country is involved
in a fearful struggle. She is beset
by a direful conspiracy of huge pro
portions. Her Constitution has
been violated, her laws set at defi
ance, her liberties outraged and her
very existence threatened with anni
hilation. In this hour of her tribu
lation, she has called upon her sons
to contribute men and money for her
defence. I have no money to give.
But I have a HEART AND A
'HAND AND A LIFE, and these I
place at her disposal. I go, then, to
lay UPON THE ALTAR OF MY
'COUNTRY ALL THAT I POS
SESS. I trust that none will chide,
whilst I ASK NO CREDIT FOR
THE SACRIFICE I MAKE. Thou
sands who have enlisted in this con
flict HAVE SACRIFICED MUCH
MORE. My little funny is in the
grave, and I have no one to leave
without dependance—no ungoverna
ble attachment to rend in sunder.—
Viewing the matter in this light, it
seems to me, THAT I, OF ALL
OTHERS, AM UNDER OBLIGA
TIONS TO DEVOTE MYSELF TO
THE SUBJUGATION OF THE
TREASON THA T. ENVIRONS
THE LAND. I have given precept
upon precept, and now 1 resort to
that more efficient method of raising
recruits for the defense of the land
that has blessed me, I SET THE
EXAMPLE. Weak as I am, I trust
that the God of battles will make me
instrumental in accomplishing some
good, however LITTLE that may
be."
say -We concur with our chivalric
neighbor that "THOUSANDS in this con-
Act have done MORE" than he has by up
wirds of considerable; and if they hadn't,
Jeff. Davis would have had us in a bad
pickle a long spell ago. We are also of
the Lieutenant's mind when he says ‘`HE
of ALL OTHERS, is under obligations
to devote himself to the subjugation of
the treason that environs the land," as
he did all he could to fan discontent
into rebellion. Our only regret is, that
his " devotion" (pompous as it was,)
played itself out before he got in a lick!! and
his courage oozed out at his finger ends
quite a spell before the "subjugation" was
accomplished.
"I have a heart and a hand and a life."—
We are glad to hear you have a "heart,''
Lieutenant, as we shouldn't have suspect
ed it, and never heard you accused of such
a thing; but we presume it must be so.—
We admit you hive a "life." and from the
tender and watchful care you take of it, are
LIKELY TO HAVE for some time to come.
"I ask no credit for the sacrifice I make."
No, and are not likely to get much, Lieu
tenant, in this "neck of woods," where
the reasons of your mysterious disappear
ance from the army on the eve of a series
of terrible conflicts seem to be exceedingly
well understood.
"I have given precept upon precept, and
now I resort to that more efficient method
of raising recruits for the defense of the
land that has blessed me, I SET THE
EXAMPLE." Yee, and a pretty one it
was, Lieutenant. Riding the flesh off of
Uncle Sam's ponies for 8 or 9 months,
eating out his substance, and pocketing
his eagles to the tune of $llO for every
month of idleness and peacock strutting,
and then, when the old fellow had a few
days of hard and perilous work for you
Ito do, tendering your resignation on ac
count of a bloody nose or bad corn, and
skulking home. A fine example that,
Lieutenant. It is to be hoped, for the'
sake of our common country and common
humanity, that but few will imitate it.
"WEAK as I am, I trust that the God of
Batass will make me instrumental in accom
plishing some good, however LITTLE that
may be." We]], it was very "LITTLE,"
sonny, deplorably LITTLE, unless it was in
the way of putting "Uncle Sam's" fresh
beef and potatoes out of the enemy's
reach. In that line you must have been
"a whole team and a cross dog," judging
from your appearance. The "weakness,"
you speak of is confined to "the head,"
Lieutenant, and we fear is natural and
incurable. Try a "shower bath" now and
then, however.
Lieutenant, accept assurances of our
undiminished admiration. Those straps
and buttons become you WELL.
IN THE ARMY.—Sergeant Cook,
formerly editor of the Waynesburg
Republican . and an old printer, is
now in service in Capt. Lindsey's my

avowed principles, and we trust he
may yet sec their triumph.—Pitts.

bar It is to be hoped COOK will do the
country a little more service than his "il
lustrious predecessor," who "played sol
dier" till some hard Mang was on the
tapis, and then made his trotters play. Mor
tification at Evans' disgraceful and inglor
ious return and failure drove the old man
into the army, and we shall be disappoint
ed if he don't retrieve the lost honor and
pluck of the belligerent "up-town" estab
lishment before lie gets back. Our liveli

GEN. McOLELLAN FOR PRESIDENT.

LIEUTANAWI' 'EVANS ON A BAY-
PAGE!
The intspid son of Mark who collates
big words, small ideas and pointless slang
for the unfortunate readers of the ".Repub
lican," is getting badly out of humor.—
The late elections have manifestly put his
temper to sore trials. He disgorges an
unusual quantity of bile and bad words in
his last paper. It is well, however, our
neighbor's effervescing ill-nature has found
vent, within the past few weeks, even
though many clever, loyal and upright
men have been bespattered by it, tor, as
the Quaker told the profane old sailor,
"Swear on, friend, swear on; let it all out of
thee, for thee can never get to heaven with all
that vile stuff in thee," so of our gallant
neighbor: if he had "shuffled off this
mortal coil" with all these nasty articles
in him, he could never have passed pur
gatory at farthest. As it is, by giving
diligent attention to Bro. Hurd's teach
ings and example, he may secures place
a "peg or two" higher up.
Lieutenant, we have still some bowels
of compassion left for you, (we presume
on account of the distinguished military
services you rendered the country away
down yonder on the Potomac and
Chicki
hominy,) and we kindly counsel you not
to adopt in your future editorials the
wicked suggestion of the poet,
"Fear not to lie, 'twill seem a sharper hit;
Shrink not from blasphemy, 'twill pass for
wit."
Such things don't pay, sonny ; and as
your veracity is all your capital, and as the
stock has been fearfully diminished since
you returned from the army "with your
blushing honors," you must be provident,
or you'll soon be a bankrupt.
That's all now, bubtly ; you can take
your seat.
THE HEROIC lIP-TOWN "MUER"
LOUTH HIS RANK.
REGIMENTAL ORDERS, No. 999
HEADQUARTERS, BLOODLESS 93D,
Nov. 24, 1562.
For and in consideration of the recent
naughtiness and exceeding evil behaviour
of our up-town military protege, Lieutenant
L. K. Evans, in applying to us, his super
ior officer, in sundry editorials in the last
"Greene County Republican," such shock
ing and impious expressions as "d—d base
slanderer," "d
-L-d blackguard," and such
foul epithets as "scavenger," "fiend,"
"fool," etcetera, ad infinitura, "the under
signed," in the exercise of a wholesome
discipline and sound discretion under "the
war power," has suspended the court mar
tial in the said Lieutenant's case, and
hereby summarily breaks him of his com
mission and degrades him to the rank of
Bth Corporal, with a private's pay, for the
space of 12 months, or until satisfied of his
hearty repentance for his unofficer-like
conduct. It is furthermore ordered that
when off of duty, the said Evans shall be
confined to Gossip stall and to the purlieus
of the fish-market, and be fed on pea-nut
soup and sour slap-jacks. In view of the
late Lieutenant's remarkable fondness for
the "fuss and feathers," pomp and circum
stance of glorious war, "the Colonel" gra
ciously permits him to sport, as hereto
fore, the duds and brass buttons of his
former rank.
By order of "the Colonel,"
AfICIIAEL MULLIGAN, Adjutant
Approved by the President.
JUDGE CURTIS ON THE MILITARY
POWER OF THE PRESIDENT.
We greatly regret our inability, in con
sequence of the pre-occupancy of our col
umns, otherwise, to spread the whole of
the luminous exposition of Judge Curtis
on the "Military Power of the President"
before our readers this week. We shall
be compelled to mar its force by dividing
it, and shall ask our readers to wait till
next week for the remainder.
It will be recollected that Judge Curtis
before his resignation of his seat on the
Bench of the Supreme Court of the United
States, was the author of the masterly dis
senting opinion delivered in the Dred
Scott case, and that in his politics he is
anti-Democratic, sympathizing with the
party which elected the President, whose
doctrine he so unsparingly denounces.
The most extraordinary and dangerous
assumptions of poyrer claimed by the
President in his recent Negro Emancipa
tion Proclamation, and more especially in
the subsequent one in which he claims the
right to suspend the "great *rit of habeas
corpus" over the entire country, has justly
excited the alarm of this great jurist, and
drawn from him in his retirement, this
most lucid, masterly and conclusive con
demnation of their alarming principles.
The writ of habeas corpus has ever been
regarded by our British ancestors, as well
as our own immediate. ones, as the great
bulwark for the protection of the personal
liberty of the citizen, and a quiet submis
sion to its invasion, would argue the most
abject insensibility to the danger which
grows out of the stealthy advances of de
spotic power. Every man in the commu
nity, be he Republican or Democrat, is
most deeply interested in resenting with all
the vigor with which he is endowed, the
first approaches to the obliteration of this
greatest shield to the rights of the people.
The power assumed by the President in
these two Proclamations is as justly as it
is forcibly denounced by Judge Curtis, as a
"power for the exercise of which by the
President there is no warrant whatever in the
Constitution; a power which no free people
would confer upon an Executive officer and
REMAIN A FREE PEOPLE. For it would make
him AN ABSOLUTE MASTER OF TIIEIR LIVES,
THEIR LIBERTIES AND THEIR PROPERTY,
With power to DELEGATE HIS MASTERSHIP
to SUCH OF HIS SATRAPS AS HE
MIGHT SELECT, or as MIGHT BE IMPOUD
UPON HIS CREDULITY OR HIS FEARS!"

THE ARMY VOTE.

vote, in order to defeat certain Democratic
members of Congress in this State, has
proven a wretched failureove are happy

the vote in several Districts, the Demo
cratic candidates are elected by handsome
majorities.
EDITOR ASSASSINATED.
J, F. BOLLMEYER, Esq., editor of the
Dayton (0.) Empire, a Democratic journ
al of great ability and influence, was shot
on one of the streets of that city, a few
days after the October election, by an Ab
olitionist named Brown. The assassin
was arrested and imprisoned, and will be
tried and hung (doubtless) for the wilful
and premeditated killing. Bollmeyer was
some 32 years of age, and leaves a young
wife and child.
We are glad to learn that the people of
Dayton have held a meeting and propose
to raise funds to erect a monument over
the grave of the murdered man, who was
highly esteemed and is heartily lamented
by a wide circle of friends.
WHAT LINCOLN INTENDS TO DO.
The New York Tribune's special Wash
ington city correspondent, in a dispatch
dated Nov. 22d, says :
"The President, in the course of a
rneral conversation yesterday with
several intimate friends, said distinct
ly, as we are informed by one of the
gentlemen present, that his views on
the emancipation question had in no
wise been modified by the result of
the recent elections; that he had is-
Rued the proclamation of September
after long and thoughtful delibera
tion, and that he should stand by it
up to and on the Ist of January.—
Mr. Lincoln introduced the subject
himself, and spoke with a positive
ness that was unmistakeable."
stir I t is scarcely credible that the
President entertains such utter contempt
for the late expressions of the popular will
as the above would seem to indicate.
ORGANIZING THE DRAFTED MEN.
The drafted men at Camp Howe have
been organized into regiments by Gen.

in Greene county, for Mr. Lazear, by

by persons not white male citizens of the

lin and other townships in Greene county
were held at different places than those
required by law, and were cosequently
: That the return judges of the
counties composing the 24th district refu
sed to count the soldier's vote, which gave
Mr. Wallace about three hundred and sev
enty majority—upon which the Supreme
Court had decided that its jurisdiction in
passing upon the legality of the vote, em
braced only county offices—and that the
rejection was therefore illegal. Mr. Wal
lace further claims a majority of all the ;
votes cast in the district ; notifies Mr.;
Lazear that he will demand an examina
tion of - the lists of voters and ballots in
each township, and reserves the right to;
enlarge or modify his notice at any time,
hereafter.—. Pitts. Chronicle.

ILLINOIS ELECTION.
The result of the election in Illinois,
with only four small nounties'to hear from,
is a Democratic majority of 16,507. The
Congressional delegation will stand nine
Democrats to four Republicans. The Re
publican majority in 1860 was a little over
14,000. A remarkable fact in this elec
tion is that while "Egypt," the old Dem
ocratic stronghold, does better than usual
for the Republicans, the central counties
have given way and cast large Democratic
majorities.
PRICE OF NEWSPAPERS.
It has already, or must soon, become a
matter of necessity with newspaper pub
lishers to raise the price of subscription
and advertising. The reasons are fully
stated in the following from the Baltimore
Sun :
"Printing materials of all kinds have
very materially advanced since the com
mencement of the war. On some articles
of prime necessity to the printer, the ad
vance is fully equal to thirty per cent.—
In addition to this the government taxes
them three per cent on the paper they use,
three per cent upon their advertisements,
and three per cent upon their income, if
they are fortunate enough to have any.
Seir The present prices of printing pa
per are such, says the New York Post, as
will materially affect the condition of the
American press. If they continue, the
newspapers must either raise their prices
or stop altogether.
Siir"We hope that all our country sub
scribers who have business in town during
the sessions of the Court, will remember
to call on the Printer, and pay up for an•
other year. The high price of paper and
everything that enters into the publica
tion of Ne;spapers, to say nothing of the
increased cost of living, renders it abso
lutely nececessary that we should receive
our pay in strict accordance with the
terms."
GOVERNMENT SWINDLING.
I have canvassed the entire North in
defense of the Union cause, and in vindi
cation of the present Administration, and
I now propose to recanvass the whole in
order to expose the villainies of its army
officers, paymasters, swindlers and up
starts, who are eating up the substance of
the Government!----W. G. BROWNLOW.

excessive. It reaches them in four differ
ent ways. The tax on white paper is
large—on ink—on every advertisement—
on the income. It would seem that the
: tax was arranged to embarrass newts
! pers. It certainly fbrces them to raise
their prices or publish at an actual loss.—
The price of white paper has increased
within the past three months tevhe extra,
ordinary degree of thirty-six per cent.
These heavy taxes and the unusual ad
vance in the price of paper, must work
fatally upon many newspapers throughout
the country. Certain it is that none of
them can live, in anything like a healthy
condition, (if they pay their bills,) without
an advance in price; for it is quite evident
that they cannot continue on the old and
no more than living profits, under the
weight of these great taxes, and advance
in their price of paper, of ink, and of ev
ery article they buy.—Hartford Times.
Save Your Rags
Housekeepers should preserve all

say ings in reducing the present ruin
