We ask the attention of our readers to the following correspondence relating to the suppression of the publication of the Baltimore Evening Post s the only Democratic paper published in that City. We can scarcely realize that it relates to a transaction in an American city, and not in the dominions of despotic Austria, which never heard of a Free Press! We are persuaded that no comments of ours 'can intensify the detestation with which every American citizen, whatever may be his politics, will in his heart ; view such acts. The pride of manhood, if he had no regard for the protection of one of the most cherished rights of the people, should have impelled the President in response to the noble letter of the Hon. BEVERDY JonxsoN, one of the Senators from the sovereign State of Maryland, promptly to reverse the action of the political General, Wallace, whose conceptions of duty never rose above those of a blind and bigoted partizan. But who expects magnanimity, nay, simple justice, at the hands of au administration so devoted to its own continuance in power ! for bad laws and bad rulers, is the ballot box ! You, fellow-citizens, are about to call your rulers to that sublime ordeal, at which you and they stand on an equality, and we feel that we need not exhort you to hold them responsible for these and the many other gross wrongs they have practiced upon you and your dearest rights within the last two or three years? BALTIMORE, OCt. To the Editors of the National Lit elligeneer : GE.I.ITLEMEN : The papers you receive with this (and which you will do me the favor to publish) speak for themselves, telling a story that no American citizen worthy of the name will read but with ' deep regret. Of the many outrages of like character perpetrated under the authority of the President or with his approval, the suppression of the Evening Post is the most flagrant. The cause as signed (if true) is a sad exhibition of the power of the President to put down a gigantic rebellion having arrayed in its support hundreds of thousands of well disciplined soldiers, commanded by brave and skillful officers. A Major General of the President's appointment having several thousand soldiers subject to his orders, has not the power, he tells us, to prevent the suppression of a pa per by mob violence: and the President, with a want of courtesy,'not to have been expected, refuses to see the gen tlemen whose property and rights as freemen, he was informed, had been outraged, or even to answer respectful letters soliciting his interference. Pos terity will hardly believe that such things should have occurred, and the people iu this country and everywhere where liberty is valued, will regard it but with shame and indignation. I trust in God that the day is near at hand when the Constitution which our fathers bequeathed us, and the freedom which they designed should be perpetual, will be ours once more. Yours, with regard, REVERDY JOI IT TSON BALTIMORE, Oct. Gth Jo the President of the United States : Sin: The accompanying communica tion from the editor and proprietors of the Evening Post, of this city, has been placed in my hands with a request to forward it to you. The wrong it dis closes seems to me to be so utterly with out justification or excuse that I should be doing injustice to you to suppose for a moment that you will permit it to be continued. You will also receive with this a copy of the paper issued on the last. day on which its publication was permitted, and I am sure you will agree with me in the opinion that it contains nothing of a disloyal character, unless it be that it has at its head the names Mc- Cl&lan and Pendleton as its preferred candidates in the present presidential canvass. It would be my diuy to apol- , ogize in advance were I even to hint that you would consider that as any evi dence of disloyalty, or of affording the slightest grounds for the suppression of the paper. The reason assigned for the military order complained of you can not fail also to agree with me in thinking to be wholly insufficient, since the offi cer issuing it had under his command two or three thousand armed soldiers, a force abundantly adequate to protect the office of the newspaper and its editor from the violence of a mob, had there been any indication at the time that such violence would be used, I am made the organ of bringing this matter to your attention, becmige of my being one of the Senators of the State, and bound by that relation to do what I can to protect her citizens against outrage. An early reply to the request of the editor sent through me is respectfully solicited, and, not doubting that it will be a favorable one. I have the honor to remain your obedient servant. • REVEHDT JOHNSON. BALTIMORE, Oct. sth. To his Excellency, Abraham Lincoln : The undersigned, citizens of the State of Maryland, respectfully repre sent : That on the 7th of June, 1864, they commenced the publication, in the city of Baltimore, of a daily evening news paper, called the Evening Past, of which they were the propr ietors, and upon the nomination of George B. ifeChollan and George H.

Wallace having declared to the editor that said order would not be re voked by him. The undersigned herewith encloses a copy of the Eveniucr Post of the 30th of September, 1864, the day on which said order was issued, and the contents of which they understood from General Wallace caused the issuance of said or der. They further represent that no suggestion has at any time been made that the Evening Post ever c.:mitained any statements relating to the move ments or positions of the military forces of the Government which were calculated to prejudice the cause of the Government ; nor indeCfl was any coin plaint ever made to the undersigned as tc the way in which their paper was conducted. Nor were there .any fears entertained t.)y the.. o f violence being done to themselves or to their of And they further reprcsens that in case any threats of violence had been made, or any violence offered, it could pot but have been in the power, and surely would have been the duty, of Gen. Wallace to have prevented any such violence. The undersigned respectfully ask of the President of the United States whether the suppression of their news paper and the prohibition of its further publication meets with his approval ; and if not, he will cause the above mentioned order to be revoked. Respectfully, BOSLEY & BREWER BALTDIORE, Oct. 10th. To lion: 11 , - :evetylo Johnson: MY DEAR SIR : 'Having been the bearer of a letter from you to Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, relating to the suppression of the Balti more Evening Post, of which I am one of the proprietors. it seems to he cour teous that I should detail to you the circumstances attending my failure to obtain an audience which I was at so much pains to attempt to procure. I arrived at the President's mansion at about 9/ o'clock on Saturday morning. The messenger• in attendance informed me that the President was then at the War Department with General Grant. After a short time—not more than half an hour—Mr. Lincoln returned. I saw him, and immediately I sent the letter you gave me, together with card and Mr. Kimmel's. The messenger returned no answer. I waited until 3 o'oloek, p. m., when I infbrmed Mr. Lincoln of my departure, and left the house. Very respectfully, JosnuA M. BOSLEY. The Democratic Vote in Greene Co. The political tricksters who predicted that the presence of the military in this county would reduce Gen. Lazear's majority to 1200, only overestimated the effect of that pres ence, but still we doubt not his vote was re duced 100 by the fact. The impression was quietly spread among certain timid men, that violence might arise at the polls, that certain persons would be arrested, and re sistance would probably result &c. As to the arrest of deserters, who, in many instances, had taken bounties and shirked their duties, the only complaint that could be made was the ante selected for their ar rest. As to the drafted men, every body knew, or might have known, that the townships had filled their quotas before the arrival of the military ; but in some instances those who acted for the townships, had not taken the precaut . cn to procure the evidence of this, which gave the conspirators to lesson the Demo cratic vote, a technecal excuse for their proceedings. In other cases men had bee spotted by those busy intermeddlers as de serters, who had furloughs in their pockets, others as having horses, or other government property, (as guns, overcoats, &c) in their posession. These were pointed out by spy - ing abolitionists, and in many instances arrests were made and parties pot to dis grace, expense and imprisonment, with scarcely a show of excuse. All these things produced apprehension and alarm in the minds of timid people. The result shows that those who engineered these things, calculated well the effect. We predict that 31.'Clellan's vote in next month in this coun ty, will verify the truth of our statement. The Soldiers Vote at the Presiden tial Election. It is very important that provision should be made to secure the vote of Democratic Soldiers at the Presidential election. This can be done by their friends at home having them swwiimed and their taxes paid in time, and the evidence of these facts furnished the Soldier by the day of the election. In all instances where there is not already done, they should be assessed by a friend and a certificate of the assessor procured of that fact, which, together with a receipt for the payment of the tax of ten cents, should be promptly forwarded to the soldier, or some reliable friend, for him. In most cases per haps it would be better to forward them in a sealed letter to the soldier himself, together with tya *VW* Electoral Ticket. We hope every Democrat who has a friend in the army, will feel it to be his duty to attend to this at ow% The different township com mittees should make this an especial duty. tar it be remembered by the people that all of their money is not squander ed by the Shoddy Administratton in buying votes.

Oct: 14 j Returns from the elections held on Tuesday last have come to hand, suffi cient to prove beyond question that we have triumphed in the state by a ma jority of seven to ten thousand of the home votes. The votes of the soldiers in the hospitals and in the army, may, or may not, reduce this aggregate. We congratulate you on this glorious' result! All honor to the noble and faithful men who have achieved such a victory, in spite of the frowns of power, the corruption of money, and the in fluence of a blind and remorseless fanat icism! Our victory, however, is but half completed. We hold the vantage ground so gloriously obtained only fin• one grand movement more—to reclaim, in November, the threatened liberties of our country, and restore to it the peace and prosperity of former times. We conjure you, then, by ail that freemen hold dear, to rally once more for a final struggle! Organize anew ! Shake off the creeping apathy which comes too often after a successful con test ; and let us hurl from power the in solent contemners of the people's rights; overthrowing at the same time the band of public plunderers which follow in their train. By order of the committee : C. L. WARD, Chairman Robert J. Hemphill, Secretary. A telegram to the Associated Press from Philadelphia yesterday announced that "though but 5,323 votes from the army had been received, the Republican majority was 4,667." Another tele gram to the Associated Press form Har risburg yesterday announced that "the entire number of votes from the army thus far opened and entered at the State Department will scarcely reach 400, and these scattered through the various counties of the state." It would be interestinz to know the name of the Republican clairvoyant who counts at Philadelphia, and reports to New-York, votes not yet received and opened at the State Department of Pennsylvania! Connecticut and Delaware.--" Behold how Brightly Breaks the Morning" ---The People Speak for M'Clel lan, Pendleton and the Union. In our issue yesterday, we published an account of the recent local elections in Con necticut, which showed large gains for the Democratic party since last spring. We are now permitted to record glorious news from little Deleware. The election on Tuesday last throughout that State for judge and inspectors, resulted in the grand est triumph ever achieved by the Democra cy of Delu ware. A telegram from the As sociated Press, gives the following magnifi cent result: New Castle. county. Democrat majority, 24 Sussex, do do do 450 Kent, do do do 903 making a majority in the State of 1,405. In October, 1862, the Abolitionists had 432 majority in New Castle, We have still further returns from Con necticut. Seven towiis in addition to those reported yesterday, b.ave been carried by large Democratic majorities. Delaware aad Connecticut have done well; Their Democracy have responded nobly to the nominations of M'CLELLAN and PEN DLETON. They have indignantly rebuked the imbecile and corrupt administration at Washington. IT is very adroit in the administration to announce, as it did through Mr. Seward, in his speech at Auburn, that there would be no more drafts just ntbre the Vermont, and Maine Elections, and then order it the day atter, to take place pe)nse one week utter 14 11 * y 9 tr L Ohio and Indiana. In Ohie the Abolition majority of last year has been reduced. 'f he Democra cy have gained 60,000. This magnifi cent result will till the hearts of every true friend of the Union and the Con stitution with joy. The Buckeye State will, cast an enormous vote for McClel lan and Pendleton. The Democracy of Indiana have fought a good fight. The Abolition ists, with that peculiar skill which char acterizes them in manufacturing figures and returns, announce that they have swept the State, and claim a fabulous majority. This is untrue. Yesterday we received a special telegram from re liable parties hi Indianapolis, which gives the following result : INDIANOPOLIS, Oct. 13. 1864.—We have elected Voorhees and Hibbard to Congress. There is a Democratic ma jority of four in the State Senate; and probably a majority in the House. The Abolitionists claim Morton's election as Governor, by 5,000 majority, but we are awaiting further figs: es. Immense frauds were perpetrated upon us throughout the State. Indiana is good for McClellan and Pendleton in Novem ber. Last year the Abolitionists carried the State by 12,000 majority. The, result this year, even taking the Abolition figures, shows a Democratic gain of 7,- 01110 votes.

'There has evidently been every species of fraud and outrage perpetrated upon the De mocracy ot Indiana, and it would not be strange, under the circumstances, it' that scoundrel victory ot Central Des potism should be permitted to hold sway for another term The state is considered good, however, for Little Mac, iii November, as many adverse in fluences will then be removed. Facts are Stubborn Things. Time are few facts so stubborn its those which vind'e to the military sagacity and po litical foresight ot Geu. McClellan. Events do not often combine so conspicuously be fore the eyes ot the world to vindicate a man as they have combined to vindicate General McClellan. Ruad the Harrison's Landing lAtel. Witness how the President's depart ure from its high and strict and statesman like principles has united the south and di vided the North. Read McClellams protest against the with drawal of the Army of the Potomac from before Richmond. Read his petitions for the 30,000 men necessary to insure the cap ture of Richmond. Consider bow they veers flouted and derided then—how their wisdom is vindicated now by the freedom with which the administration has reinforced the armies of his successors, and the sleuce of even the radical press, as events have shown how necessary was that reinforce ment which McClellan was brutally denied. Two years of bloody war and Richmond is still in the possession of the rebels, and this is the price which the nation has paid for Lincoln's refusal to reinforce McClellan— the slaughter of more men than all that McClellan ever had under his command. Pope's campaign—killed and wound- Fredericksburg Chaneellorsville From the Rapidan to the James 80,000 From the James to the mine 30.000 Under Butler 10,000 In the Shenandoah 30,000 Total, Anybody that thinks the nation can af ford this slaughter of more than two hund red thousand of its best and bravest men to gratity the political malevolence and per sonal jealousy of Abraham Lincoln, had bet ter vote for his re-election. In our judg ment the nation can neither afford the mil lions of money which Lincoln's refusal to reinforce McClellan has cost, nor this two years of slaughter and these two hundred thousand lives. Perhaps it will not be useless to remind some gentlemen that the election next No vember is to determine, not simply whether we have a Union, but whether we have a Constitution; whether we are to be.ruled by law, or ruled by a party. The issue is equally momentous at home as abroad.— whether we shall have a Union_ is a ques tion about which the Southern States have something, and indeed a good deal, to say ; whether we shall agma have a Constitution is for us alone. Every man in Deleware, Maryland, and Kentucky, who is not a Re publican is not a free man ; neither free to talk nor to act ; perhaps not free to think, for our Republican friends have added to the constitutional definition of treason the crime of "Ifs and Buts." To restore those men to the position of citizens of the United States is one of the great objects of the Democracy. If some differ from it on oth er points, they can certainly agree on that, No matter what they think of the rights of States, they agree with us about the rights of individuals: no matter what they believe of the wrongs of States, they know their own.

Some portions are denounced as unmitigated forgeries, and that portion of his speech made during the first war Con gress, in which he declared that he would vote for all means and men to maitain the integrity of the government, but that he would not countenance schemes of plunder on the Treasury, is entirely omitted, as is also the fact that speakers Grow and Colfax, each overlooking all claims of their Republi can friends, placed M.

But while the armies are fighting the battles of the Union, they ought to be aided by a correspondent civil administration ; by a policy which will diiide the South and oil Le the :North; which would encourage the gr,nvth ot Union-loving sentiments at tile South, allay all their apprchensious of injus tice and ii rung at the hands of those iiho administer the government, and restore, it possible, their love fur the Constitution.

This was his duty as a man and au Ml:leer—this was his hope as a patriot. Mr. Pendleton alluded to the presistent and malignant misrepresentations of his opinions in the Cincinnati papers. He call ed attention to the !act that they pointed out no speed?, no rote, no act was prompted by a desire to harass and mbar pass the government. Mr. Pendleton dis cussed the Tax law, the emancipation policy of the administration, the profuse expendi ture of the public money. The laws must be obeyed, the constituted authorities Joust be obeyed. A change could he worked only at the ballot box; to this they had a right to appeal and the opportunity would soon be given them. 20,000 20,000 22,000 MR. PENDLETON'S RECORD In the same issue, October 11, 1862, we find the fbllowing : The Gazette and Commercial have so per sistently misrepresented Mr. Pendleton—so constantly affirmed that he has refused to vote supplies to the administration—that there is danger they will begin themselves to believe their statements are true. Du ring the season of 1861-2 there were nine teen appropriation bills passed by the House of Representatives. Mr. Pendleton voted against only one of them, and that was for certain civil expenses of the government, and in no wise connected with his militdry operations,—( ivrtdoi io nal Globe, Session of . 1861-21). 4,331.) The Globe also shows that on the bills presented by ths Military Com mittee, for the efficient organization of the army, regular or volunteer, Mr. Pendleton generally sustained the committee. There is no evidence that in any single case there was any factious opposition. Mr. Pendle , ton voted against the Tax bill, but during its whole progress through the House he la ' bored to perfect its details, and only voted against it when the House failed to correct its glaring defects. The gross injustice of many of its provisions will speedily appear to the tax-payers. On the 21st of January, 1862, the House passed a resolution declar ing the purpose of Congress to levy and col lect taxes to the amount of one hundred and fifty millions of dollars: Mr. Pendleton vo ted yea.—(Congressional Globe, p. 372.) 212,000 ter The Democracy of Maine shows a gain of 1,739 over shoddy ; and, when the returns are all received it will amount to 1,800.

How the Soldiers will Vote. i p All accounts from the army agree,in pre dicting a heavy majority for Gen. McClellan in the soldiers' vote, especially that cast in the Army of the Potomac. Cf coarse this is upon the supposition ths* a fair canvass and vote will be allowed. In addition to the letters on this subject from soldiers, some of which we have published, the following from the Patterson Register furnishes con firmatory evidence of the feeling in the awrecir for "Litlle Mac We have gratifying intelligence from the.

Raid on the Kentucky Central Rail road—Track Destroyed near Paris Train Captured and Burned—The Passengers Robbed. Tuesday morning, about 6 o'clock, a gang of twenty-five rebels, under the command of Pete Everett. tore up the track of the Kentucky Central Railroad one mile south of Lowe's Station, which is about midway between Paris and Lexington. Tile morning passenger train from Lexington came along in a few minutes afterwards, and was immediately attack ed by the rebels, who fired into the cars, killing a ngro, and wounding three white men and one negro. The engine and tender were run off the track, and the cars destroyed by fire. Nearly all of the passengers were robbed. Ever etf, took 52,1b0 from the Adams En press messenger, and $4O and a watch from Conductor Welhnon. The watch ' was subsequently recovered. The pas sengers were allowed to return to Lex ington, a distance of eleven miles.. Everett and men left for parts unknown. The passenger train which left Coving ton yesterday morning, returned. It went no further than lioyd's Station. The soldiers who had been guarding the Townsend trestle-work, between Cynthiana and Paris, were withdras yes erday, for some reason, and it feared that Everett may attempt to burn the structure, with is the most important one on the road. All sorts of rumors were rife in Covington, yes terday. Paris had bee.' captured, Lex— ington endangered and our sisters over the river were to be threatened, but they,- were all like "the baseless fabric of a• vision."
