OF ILLINOIS
NOB VICE PRESIDENT.
Andrew `Johnson,
Short Terra Enii.t ;tient anti Conscription.
GOod soldiers asserted after the war was
in progress six months, that, had a large and
an overwhelming force been called out by
the Government, immediately on the precipi
tation of the rebellion, the country would
have saved millions of treasure, thousands of
valuable -lives would have been -preserved,
and peace restored to the land in a very short
time.. It has been all along alleged, that tin
power of our military enlistments , has been
their shortness of term. The nine months'
men left the service at a time when then
presence in the army was absolutely needed:
at a time when it was doubted if the rebels at
many points could be successfully resi_ted iu
their absence. Yet the term of service of
these men had . expired, Emden° blame could
attaoh to men for holding the Government
to the fulfilment of a contract entered into' en
tirely on its own stipulations. If censure be
longed to any one, it was due to those who
had arranged the contract, and put those who
faithfully performed their share of the agree-.
inent in the - field of battle; however, then
were many who at the time bitterly re.
preached the soldiers who retired from be
fore the enemy at the expiration of their term
of service.
—We now see it stated that a proposition
is before the War Department and also being
discussed in Congress, contemplating the con
scription of a large number of one year men.
It any_such a measure is seriously under con
sideration,- Congress would do better b 3
changing the number from a few hundred
thousald men;.and fir it to include the entire
fighting population of the country. If every
man capable of bearing arms were called to
the field, the war could be ended in a very
Short time. But until such a call is made,
until overwhelming numbers are organized and
marched into the field, it is only rushing men
to needless sacrifice, to secure inadequate
foroea for a limited term of enlistment to fight
the rebels. Congress has been gull ty of many
foolish acts in hot haste, but we trust that it
will not enacra law providing for a short term
of enlistment. What is now needed are men`
to serve until this rebellion is put down,
whether the time for the achievement of that
object be short or long. Any proposition to
recruit armies on any other plan, must result
either in disaster or embarrassment to the
WWI QC the Government.
Three IPlavadential Candidates.
It is now certain that we shall have three
Presidential candidates in the field. Of course
the object of two of these candidates will be
to defeat and hurl down the present admmis
tration, in the face of the importance - of
securing its continuance in power for another
term of four years after the 4th of March,
1865. Heretofore the enemies of the Union—
the foes alike of freedom and 'that progress of
the American States which is death to slavery--
have succeeded in defeating the true and only
friends of a policy calculated to render the
American Government lasting, by a game
such as they are preparing -to repeat at the
coming Presidential election. Henry Clay was
defeated by 'Tames S. - Polk by just' such a
scheme—a defeat which fairly inaugurated, in
the Texas swindle, the frauds and the
mal admfnistration which have since led to
rebellion. Prank Pierce went into. power
on the same plan. The true friends of
the Union suffered themselves to be diiided
at that time, and. by their division the slave
power fastened its grasp upon the government
with a death hold, and then was organized
that oligarchy in the Senate, composed 'Of
De tnocratio slave-holding Senators, whichroled
the whole conntry with a rod of iron. The
Piero 3 administration was the echo of the slave
power. It was dough-lace and white livered
so utterly corrupt did it become in the
hands of the men who used it . for the further
ance of the plans of rebellion, that it was re
pudiated b) these leaders themselves, as too
mean in all its particulars for the recognition
of the highest order of "Democratic g ntlemen!"
Next in order came the Buchanan Adminis
tretion. James Buchanan secured his election
alone by the division of the Republican party
—by the aetion and course of such men as
John C. Fremont, who, to satisfy a sickening
ambition, was willing to see the goverrunent
Of the country confided to the hands of its
enemies. Hence, it will be seen, the progress
Of the slave-holders' conspiracy was secured
11.1 much by the division which the friends of
the Union allowed to be made in their own
ranks. as it was by any actual effort on
the part of the conspirators themselves.—
Had the Democracy had a united opposition
to contend with, the Texas iniquity never
could have been accomplished. Had. the
fc•ends of freedom acquiesced in a course of
action, the Fugitive Slave law never would
have blackened' our statute books. Had the
party which now contends for the 'Union and
the Government, never yielded. to schisins,
the Missouri Compromise would have still been
a lay. Of these troths history admonishes tts
this the hour of our greatest peril; Thride
Were we defeated hy, our divisions, and each.
time the defeat put the eountry a stop forward
in the bloody drama which is now being en
acted. Shall we allow division a fourth time
to paralyze our ranks, and thus secure the tri
umph of that conspiracy which inaugurated
the war in which we are now involved ? It
only needs this division to make the slave-
iolders' rebellion a positive success. It only
needs the election of a President allied to the
peace-Democracy or the copperhead sympa
thizers with treason, permanently to divide
the Union and firmly establish the slave-hold
ers' Confederacy. If The slave-holders had the
means of conducting this war against the
national authorities for ten years to come—
provided those authorities were true to the
government which they represented—they,
would not be-as- near to success at that time,
as they would be int the 4th of March, 1865,
were a peace or copperhead Democrat then in-
igo,rated President.
—The Union can only be,successfully de
fended and preserved by the union of its
friends. If they are divided, the Union unist
perish—the Government pass out of exist
ence. None know this better than our com
mon enemies. If we are true to ourselves—
if we are firm in the faith of the justice of
our cause--if we forget self and lay our all
on the altar of the country, nobly resolved to
defend it against all enemies, we are bound to
be -victorious. And that there may be no
mistake about these enemies, we must treat
all thosh who are not with us as foes, making
)mnaon war against these as we do, against
the enemies of the country!
Ma. VALLANDIGECAU has taken a bold step.
A. banished man banished not only after a
trial by a military commission, for a military
offence, but with the approval of the Presi
dent and people of the United States—he has
dared to return , and defy the, laws which pun
ished him. His speech at Hamilton, Ohio,
is actually wicked in its insinuation that the
President could possibly wish to take his life,
And atrocious in its subtle attempt: to excite
Las followers to violence. What action the
Govertinaent will take we need not anticipate,
hut it is right that it should be prompt and
thorough. Vallandigham's reasons for this
audacious movement are not difficult to guess.

General Sheridan's Raid.
Probable Destruction of Railroads North
of Richmond.
What Sheridan Was to Do.
Gen. Lee's Cavalry Disappears
It is understood here in military circles
that the first important work Sheridan's cav
alry did was to utterly destroy, from a point
as near Riclunondits , they could get north
warde, a great many miles of the road to
Frederioksburg to defeat the possibility of its
use by Lee for any offensive operations be
tween Grant and Washington.
,The work of the CaValry, wail then supposed'
to be to dash to Cherkittsville, , - au7pporting
themselves on the tionittiy as they 4 went, and
practically abolishing Shivery wherever their
horses trod, and destroy the railroads, of
which Charlottsville is the junction.
The vast el terprige will, by this time, either
have been an accomplished fact or something
else. It was supposed'that Sheridan would
make a junction with Averill and cross at
OharlottsviLle.'
Lee's cavalry disappeared from our flank
last Friday, and was probably sent in pur
suit of Sheridan—a dangerous hunting
if the
Irishman shall wheel about. Sheridan took
no forage or rations with him.

GREAT MEETING LAST EVENING.
Enthusiastic Endorsement of

OPER INSTITUTE CROWDED TO
The Good Omen for November
New Youx, June 16,
Last evening one of the largest," inegif - earn
est and enthusiastic audiences ever assembled
at Cooper Institute, gathered there, filling it
to and beyond its capacity, to respond to_and
ratify the nomination of Abraham Lincoln
and Andrew Johnson for President and Vice-
President, for fohr years from the 4th of
March next. All climes of citizens, all par
ties were represented, and all tinitedin a glad
and enthusiastic recognition of: the patnotio
services, the stern integrity_and the tried abil
ity of President Linceln, and in . warmest ap
proval of the seleztion as his coadjutor of the
' tested and trusty patriot, Andrew Jonnson.
The opening of the campaign, in this meet
ing, indicates the Union success. It fore
shadowed the uprising of men, the length
and breadth of the country, undirected by
leaders. untrammeled by party feeling
and preiudices, devi ted solely to the safety of
their country. the cause of the Union. Never
has there been so unmistakable a demonstra
im. It wal almost impromptu, too, for but
brief notice had been given of the meeting to
the loyal thousands astembled. A large num
ber of ladies by their presence lent encourag
in„a approval to the objects of the meeting,
Over the platfre m a banner was suspended
containing the nominations, below on either
side of which the Stars and Stripes were taste
fully displayed.
Dining the evening the proceedings were
enlivened by the music of-a band.
At 8 o'clock, Hon. Charles S. Spencer,
President of the Lincoln and Johnson am
paign Club, under the auspices of which the
meeting was called, called the meeting to or
der.
Speeches were delivered by )Messrs. S. C.
Spencer and—Henry 'J: Raymond, of New
York, Ex-Governor Wright, of Indiana, -Hon.
Horace Maynard, of Tennessee, and Hon. S.
Matthews, of Maryland, all of whom spoke in
the most glowing terms of the President and
his Administration.
A letter was read from Hon. Wrn. H. Sew
ard, which created great enthusiisim •
Mr. Smith offered the following resolutions,
which were unanimously ,adopted:
• Resolved, That this assemblage, represent
ing the manifest sentiment of the Unionists
of New, York, heartily ratify the action of the
convention recently held at Baltimore.
Resolved, That to the doctrines declared by
that convention we respond with cordial ap
proval; and we rejoice that the day has at,
length come when policy is tested by principle
—when patriotism is allied ,to humanity
when the interests of one race seek vindica
tion 'throughjustiCe 'to another—when - Free
Labor may assail the'Slave Trade not only in
tar off territories and still More distant seas,
but here, within the very - Stetes of the Amer
ican Union—end when the - people, whether
arrayed at'the ballot-box or marshaled: one the
field of battle, shall bear upon their banners
the glorious a_n# inseparable watcli*ords—
'LlßEßTY AND NATioNALITY."
Resolved, That in the judgment of this
meeting, the convention could have taken no
course so certain to give effect to their phtt
form of principles, as in :making the nomina
tions which they have presented to the
country. Those nominations are invincible,
because they have been first made by: the
popular voice. Amenian history may .be
seardhed in - vain for an instance of more re
markeble unanimity than that with which the
"plain" and patriotic people of the United
States have dienatided 'the re-election of Abra
ham Lincoln. • _
Resolved, That it was lit and proper, that
our National ticket shOuld bear evidence of,
the sympathy andrespect with which Union
ists in the No.fittv regard those who have en
dared sacrifices and. sufferings for their flag
and country iit the Smith. Their heroic de
votion not only honors the American -charae
ter, but exalts human nature itself. We are
glad that in macho; this recognition, the con
„vention has selected one who illustrates, in
his own history, that patriotism and states
manship may be of litunble ofikin”; one who,
though representing a slave State, was the
advocate of frbe homes.; and one who dared,
amidst the madnesiof secession and treason,
to, give in- the Senate, for the Constitution
and the Union, the voicieand vote of Andrew
Johnson, of Tennessee.
At the conclusion of the epeeehes and adop
tion of the resolutions, the meeting adjourned
amid great enthusiasm, and. cheers for the
National nominees.

Made his appearance at the Democratic Dis

the apparent surpr se of a large portion of the
assemblage. He .v as received_arith great en
thusiasru. _
He spoke spoke"liriefly from .a written &moment,
narrating hie arrest, and defending his action.
Ho said the assertion of the President that he
was arrested because elabored with some
effect to prevent the raising - of troops,. and
encouraged desertions from the arnicie, had.
disobeyed, or failed. to counsel obedience to
lawful authority, was absolutely false. Be
appealed for proof to every speech lit had
made, and to the record of the military com
mission by the trial aud sentence of which he
was banished. "The sole offence," ^he said,
_"which was laid to-my charge, was words of
criticism of the public policy of the Adminis
tration, addressed te an. open political meet
ing of my fellow-citizens.
For more than one year no public man has
.been arrested; no newspaper has been sup
messed within the State for the expression of
public opinion; while hundreds in public SS
semblies, and through the press, with violence
and threats, in-which I. have never indulged,
have oritioised and condemned the acts and
policy of the - AaTripr Att. - ad - Wind denounced
the war, maintaining even the-. propriety 'of
recognizing the Southern confederacy. Ido
ripfmean any longer to be the only man of
the party who is to be the victim of this arbi
trary power. If Abraham Lincoln seeks my
lethircksaAeolare, but he shall zu:kt Nola

OE
'restrain me of my personal liberty except upon
due process of law.
He denounced Order No. 38, under which
ho was arrested, and said it was against the
Constitution and the laws, and without valid
ity. All proceedings under it were null and
void. " The time has arrived," he continued,
...when it becomes me, as a citizen of Ohio
and of the United States, to demand, and, by
my own act, vindicate the rights, lib• rties,
and privileges which I never forfeited, but of
which for so many months I have been de
prived." He reiterated his right to cliticise
the acts of the Administration, and cautioned
his political friends to abstain from any'acts
of violence on his account, although he ad
vised none to shrink from any responsibility,
however urgent, if forced upon him.
Mr. Vallandigham was accompanied to the
depot' by' an enthusiastic crowd, and arrived
at Dayton to-night, where it is understood he
will make 4 speech.
