SMALL PDX. A great many exaggerated repohis . as to the prevalence of this loathsome disease at Waynesburg have been in circulation throughout the county for some two weeks past. We cannot better contradict these extravagant and ridiculous rumors than hq..atating the truth, which is, that but two cases have occurred in the town or its vicinity, and one of them is pronounced an exceedingly mild type of Variolold. Both pa,tientl are recovering rapidly, and there is no probability of the disease spreading, as every precaution has been taken •to preVent it. Persons inky risit the town without indulging the slightest fear of con tracting the disorder. There is absolute ly no danger whatever. IIMI!51:55E11 THE HOLIDAYS. The Holidays have come and gone, and people hereaway are all the better of the recreation they afforded. The entertain ment of the Soldiers' Aid Society on Christmas Eve was, largely attended, and seemed highly appreciated. The Fox Chase of Thursday called out "Big Jim" and our Nimrods generally, with their hounds and nags; and made it an occasion of uproarious sport. The "little shavers" had their usual feast of sweetmeats, and invested largely in fire-crackers and other combustibles. New Year's and: the day following were occasions of infinite amusement to the male bipeds about town, who assembled in force at the eid Cricket ground, and tried their hand at the "Wheelbarrow Game." A. stake ie driven in the ground some 80 paces from a starting point, the wheelets are blindfolded and after turning round once with their "cart," start, one after another, for the stake. The one *ho , steps nearest the stake gets a Turkey for his trouble. We tried our hand several times, wheeled over some two-thirds of a ten are field, expecting at every step to "haul up"against "the mark ;" but have no recollection_ of bringing home "the fowl," or any other "substantial," but a purse tpinis three 5 cent shinplasters.— But "sick is life."

GRANDVIEW, EDGAR CO., ILL., Nov. 26th, 1862. My dear Sir : —Allow me to congratu late you on the re election to Congress of my old friend, Gen. Lazear, under such unfavorable-circumstances. I had-almost deipaired of a restoration-- of our happy Union, but the late elections will., in my I opinion, do more to restore the Union than any victories our armies - could ob tain. It now appears that people. are coming .to their senses and to feel the evils that have been brought upon us by unprincipled demagogues. I think all honest patriots are now convinced that the , ' war has brought distress and misery enough on the country, and that, in order to restore peace and union, it is absolutely necessary to have a change of rulers, both North and South, for we cannot expect those who have brought on the war and are now fattening on the spoils of their bleeding country; to- give up the reins of government without a , desperate struggle, and of course they will not desire to see peace and union restored, which would de prive them of the loaves and fishes of office. I calculate that the result of the ejections in the Northern States will en courage the Union party of the South to look forward to the day when they may hope to see that party in power which has always been willing to allow them their constitutional rights, and that it will in crease their numbers as fast as the Presi dent's Emancipation and- Confiscation Proclamations hadredaced them. It has become a very common expression, espe cially with candidates for office of all' parties,-that " the war ought to be vigor ously prosecuted until the rebels lay down their arms." It is a common error .for bel ligerants to underrate the power of- an ad-' versary, and our rulers have fully sbared• that error. Now, in my opinion, there are but two ways to end , this war:. The one is by a war of extermination; the other by compromise. The N orthern States may, by freeing and arming the slaves, bring about this extermination by sending powerful armies to assist in the indiscrimi nate murder of men, women and children; and while we shudder at the idea of such a war, which, no doubt, would gratify a por-- tion of our people in the North, aid, leaving- out every feeling of humanity, let ,us count the cost of such a war. We I have seen enough of the Southern-people to know that they will not lay down their arms,- untenditionally, so long as they can raise a.regiment, and the more desperate we• may make their sondition,• the more desperately they will fight. They can bring into the field - at least half a million of men, and to cut these off, will cost. at least an'equal number of liVer, but' the idea of such ft desolation as this is too shocking to contemplate. I shalt perhaps be in , danger of a com pulsory visit to some of the modern ba s tiles for offering to compromise with rebels, but I believe I have honestly pointed'out the legitimate consequences of the other alternative. By compromise, our union was first accomplished, and by compromise only, can it be restored. It is time we would lay aside our vein boasting as if we had not a powerful and deter niined enemy to contend' with. I would never agree to a division of the Union, for' it would. not be attended With . any good- re‘ sults to either Norfh or South, but would be as England and Scotland were before' their union : an almost continual border warfare. The Northern States have cer tainly superior resources when compared with the South, but they have shown us already that they have power enough to • ake every victory we gain over them be dearly bought. It is to be sincerely la mented that so many brave men have been sacrificed by a war brought on ue by desperate and unprincipled. rulers, both North and South,. It is natural for us to inquire into• the , real cause of this unnatural and destruc tive war, and it is generally said that sla very is the cause, but I have been a pret ty attentive observer of the politics of the country for a good deal more than half a century, and am of the opinion that the disruption of the Union had its origin half a century back in our history, and in . place of originating in the South, its first symp toms made their appearance in the New England States. During the war of 1812, the New England States, as a body, oppo sed that war, and did all in their power to embarrass the government during its con tinuance, so that their capitalists formed a combinatien to prevent the government from obtaining loans to carry on the war, and Governor Strong, who was then Gov ernor of Massachusetts, refused to furnish his quota of militia for the service of the United States, as Governor Andrews, one of his successors, has lately done. It was known that the gritisk government had secret emissaries among them at this time to induce them to leave the Union and be attached to Canada, and the' famed Hart ford Convention was held for the purpose of carrying out this plot, but before they got their plans niatured, peace was conclu ded with England, and this put a atop to their treasonable proceedings'. This was the first serious attempt to disrupt the Union, and there and then it originated.— It may be asked, what was the cause of this treason? The cause they alleged was that those States were so largely engaged in commerce that the war was peculiarly injurious to them l but it was proved by Matthew Cary, of Philadelphia, in a well written pamphlet *birth he published at that time, entitled te. "Olive Branch," that the single poet of New York had more commerce than all the New England States put together, and yet the State of New York warmly supported the Govern ment throughout the war. But the real cause of this treason (for treason it-was, though not by an overt act) was that those States bad found themselves in a minority in Congress, and at this early pe riod of our histroy adapted the desperate doctrine of "rule or ruin." Now, in this first attempt to dissolve the Union, elavery had nothing to do. At a later period we find Anti-Masonry acting on the same prin ciple—a lust for power and patronage of Government; and near the same period the spirit of nullification for a time threat ened the peace of the Union. The Caro linians complained that the tariff laws of that period operated oppeeasively on them, and it was not without tome pet taus% for out-tariff hum hare *Ways long man aged to favor the 1111hvcatipbrad Satter. 'sr e expense or air Wit ral ititotfittliC Bit Ale"4111110 ai nullification was the disappointment of John C. Calhoun, so &an of fine talents and some excellent traits of character.— Mr. Calhoun had got, within one step of the summit of .liis ambition, tut when he lost the friendship of President Jackson he found all his ambitious schemes blast ed, and spent the remainder of tie life;in schemes' to destroy the Union. Again. slavery had no part in this second at tempt to - dissolve the Union ; it originated on the same ground as the Hartford Con vention : disappointed ambition. The Democracy of the country have had to contend with an;opposition ever fruitful in strategy, and when defeated in one shape, Proteus-like; assumed some other form with a new name. But recently we had another party to contend. with, call ing themselves •the American opt: Know Nothing party, who, in order to keep' the offices among themselves, excluded all Roman Catholics and all others of for eign birth, and many prominent politicians in the country took hold of it as a hobby i to ride into office on, but some of the , more sagacious.of the whig party saw I that by joining-this-new!paTty they would lose the votes of all Roman Catholics and tho,se of foreign birth, and therefore this new scheme was abandoned But now we are to take a view of the! manner by which . the - partrncw in power obtained that power: There- has been in the North, for a number of years, an Ab-1 lition party opposed to slavery, and the opposition, who had assumed she cogno- 1 men of the Republican party, though not ! calling themselves Abolitionists, managed to enlist this Abolition party in their ranks, and some of the leaders of the Re publican party who are nour!iiigh'in office declaring an irrepressible ,cOnffict with slavery, were able to ride into' power gill this bobby, yet it was only by the Demo- 1 erotic party becoming divided . by some of the leaders adopting the "rule or ruin" pol icy, that the Republicans could succeed. Tnus it will be seen that in the place of slavery being the cause of the war, it was! only used as a hobby for politicians to ride into office on, and, if I am not mista-1 ken, they have rode this negro hobby so ; hard' tharit'wal , break• down under them and leave tlierwinithe Muriel% I have ever regretted! the existence of slavery, and considered it an evil; but ifit is an evil, it is one that was forceil r on•tbel country by the British Government when we were dependent colonies; and if slave ! labor had proved as profitable in, New England as it is in the South, I question ' , very much it' it would ever been. abol ished there, for these people areas fond of the almighty dollar as any other people. j I have always looked upon it as a seri-1 ous injury to the country that the - Demo-:. erotic party became in a manner disor• ganized after the election of Mr. Lincoln, and'a good many who had been look"ed to as leaders of the party went with what they considered the popular current. But I am now pleased to see Democracy rising span taneously to save the country froui ruin. I; believe I will still use the liberty I have! formerly done in speaking of publlic men and public measures. I recollect a verse i of a-song that I saw in a newspaper dur- ' the . Administration of the. elder Adams when complainingof the Seditionillaw , of that period. It says Since-we're afraid toy speak , or write. A word'that might our hrothertrbite; We'll sit mum, chance, frommora tint:tight, And pay them off with-thinking. This period has been called, in our pelitical history,. the "Reign .of Terror," for by the Sedition Law people were sub ject to severe penalties for writing or speaking! anything against the President or Congress, and indeed, we are con strained' to saty tbat we now.live in a reign of terror, where every petty beputy Pro vost Marshal can haul off any of our most loyal and substantial citizens and confine them in one of our modern &utiles without any chance of a trial or de fence, and in defiance of the civil courts or the Constitution, and this, too, in New York and some of the New England States, where there is nothing to disturb the province of the civil courts. I might goon to point out other things- that I look. upon as gross abuse of power, butth see things-are . as obvious to' yourself as to me. Suffice it to say that there will be a day of reckoning, when those now in pow er will have to give an account of their stewardship ; and, in my opinion, it will be a fearful account. As the state of the country 'in its present distress occupies my mind so seriously, you will excuse me for dwelling so long upon Ow subject., Sincerely your friend, 'THOMAS UINGLAND.

This. Union can never be restored as it wast , • There - are many things which render such an event impossible. This Union shall never, with., my consent, be restored under the Consti tution as it is, with slavery to be protected by it. I Others of the Republican party prefer simulation and hypocrisy, and invent ex cuses and subterfuge to evade the charge of violating their oaths. Stevens boldly proclaims his contempt of the Constitu tion.. He has a constituency at home as bad as himself, and can afford to publish his shame. He will not be' at trouble to simulate or lie about it. WHO MADE THE WAX The Boston correspondent of the • New York Tribune, in speaking of the Mitssa• chusette writers in this war, says : "We yield them up, almost withost a tear—Lander, Webster, Peabody, Dwight, Sedgwick, Lowell; Cabot, Putnam, sal age, Stearns; Admit, • Carey, Perkins, Wil lard, and more as noble as they, with whose names 1 might prolong the bright page, for " this war is Massachusetts' war :" Massachusetts and South Carolina made it, and we demand the duty and the glory of our full share in the sacrifices." LOYAL ABOLITIONISTS. The Milwankie'News asks to what Ab olitionists are loyal? To the Constitution? They have suspended it. To the Union They , boldly prbelaim that they are not for the Union as it was, but for "a tinicrn as it ought to be." To the States?_ They propose to blot oat. State lines ! To the Government? They ignore the laws- of Congress, and scorn the decisions oft the Supreme Court ! To the President? They propose to depose him if he does not obey them ! SYMPATHY WITH SEOaSSION. The N. Y. 2iibune which was one of the very first journals to advocate a dissolu ,, tion of the Union, is still for seperation.— So late as the 14th ult., it said : "We favored, in the infancy of secessioft, the policy of letting the Cotton•Stites go, if it, should' appear that Weir people really desired to cut loose from the Union. * * * We believed then, as we realize now, that events wuuld fully justify our recommendation."
