If there is a district in the country where
the sentiment in opposition to slavery is firm,
consistent and patriotic, it is thatrepresented
by William H. Miller. The people of this
Congressional district have ever been opposed
to slavery as a great moral and social wrong-
Since the upholders of that institution organ.
ized and arineclfor the overthrow of the Gov
ernment, two-thirds of all the people in this
distrjet are convinced of the necessity and
are willing that slavery should be abolished
by some constitutional process either by
compensating the loyal owners of human
flesh, T. punishing the traitor possessors with
the loss of their "property in man." Every
patriotic, sincere and intelligent man in the
country believes in the political necessity of
abolishing slavery, because as long as that in
stitution is maintained and protected, just so
long do we retain the elements of treason,
anarchy and bloodshed in onr system of Gov
ernment. In the face of these facts—with the
well defined opinions and clearly expressed
wishes .of the people of this district on this
subject—with the necessity of abolishing sla
very as an essential measure for the future
peace and perpetuity of the Government, ad
mitted by all good men, the Democratic
partY, as an organization, oppose 'the
measure, and William Ff. Miller, in. Con
gress, as the Representative of this district,
records his vote in the negative against
a proposition contemplating the consti
tutional abolition of slavery. By this action
the Democratic party pledges itself to the eter
nal maintenance and increase of slavery. By
the votes of such men as W. H. Miller we are
assured that the evil will never be abated—
that the fierce hatred of those who barter in
human flesh, for all that is noble and pure in
a free Government, will never be checked—but
that the barbarism of slavery, the breeder of
treason and the ensanguined foe of the Union
and the Government, must be upheld, strength
ened , and encouraged in their present strug
gles And future conspiracies. Heretofore, the
eaders , Of the Democratic party . assured those
who regarded slavery . as a monstrous wrong
that the evil would undoubtedly be eradicated
in time-4hat it would be left to the working's
of the Constitution—and that its doom wes
fixed by the great laws controlling the devel
opment and the progress of society. But in
the desperation , of the hour, when God and
man point to the inevitable and the merited
doom of slavery, the leaders of the Democratic
party step forward to interpose for the de
fence and. the preservation of the barbarism!
We doubt if history presents a parallel to the
enormity of such conduct.
—Mr. Miller's vote opposing the constitu
tional abolition of slavery may be regarded
justly as the
. basest act of his life. It is a base
act, because it is in direct opposition to a
large majority of his constituents, without
regard to party ties. It is a base act because
it seeks to fasten the curse of slavery on a
the people forever. Henceforth let no man
believe in the professions of tho Copperhead
leaders. The perfidy of their acts on 'this
question establishes the treachery of their de.
signs on all matters. affecting the integrity,
present safety and future perpetuity of the
Government.
Tu WOUNDED AT WASHINGTON. —Au ex
change informs us that there seems to be a
pleasant rivalry in progress among the mem,
hers of the various State relief associations of
Washington in aid of the wounded soldiers
and their friends who seek them or tidings
from them.
Besides the force employed by the, State
governments to work in this cause, there is a
considerable number of clerks in the various
departments from most of the States who de
vote a large portion of their time, after office
hours, in attendance at the hospitals, and at
their State agencies, to assist those regularly
engaged. There are, also, not a few who seek
out the suffering from their own immediate
sections, and contribute to their relief.
The more troops each State may have sent
to the field, the greater the obligation that
rests upon their fellow-citizens in the rear to
aid in supplying their wants and relieving
their sufferings. Kindly words, strong politi
cal encouragement, and labor in the various
organized departments of the Government
and of the universal relief associations are not
sufficient. Many who need care and assist
anceiacan only be effectively reached by their
fellow-citizens from their respective States.
Therefore, we trust that this praiseworthy
emulation will continue and be increased .
while the war lasts.

About the richest specimen of journalism
we have lately read, we find in the Richmond
Dispatch of June 9. It is as follows:
If Grant is whipped on land, however, he
is always victorious on paper. We have some
times wondered Why he takes the trouble to
fight at all. He can demolish armies with a
stroke of his pen, and capture cities by a flash
of the telegraph. Why not confine his exer
tions entirely to the composition of telegraphic
dispatches? He succeeds far bettor at that
then he does at fighting. Lee whipped him
in at least ten battles, in Spottsylvania and
Hanover; yet be continually flogs Lee on the
wires. He inflicts very little loss on Lee with
his army, but he slaughters his men by the
thousand with the telegraph. Where, then,
is the use of fighting with any other weapon
than the wires ? If he can gain so many vic
tories with that instrument, why can not he
take Richmond with it? If a telegraph
victory satisfy Lincoln and the rest of Yankee
dorn, we do not see why it should not satisfy
Grant, since the applause of those interesting
people is all that he aspires to. Let Grant sit
down and telegraph a big victory every day
for a week, and then the capture of Richmond.
He will be a greater demigod with the Yankees
than he ever was. Great advantage will be
found in the fact that he will be without a
competitor. Gen. Lee can beat Grant in the
field, but he is no match for him in telegraph
ing. Grant may lie as much as he pleases.
General Lee will not contradict him. He will
onlyflog him the next time he catches him,
and set him to inventing more lies.
All this in the face of fedi that are patent
to every reader North as well as South. A
greater bundle of misrepresentations we have
never known crowded into so small a compass.
Grant's victories at Fort Henry, Donelson,
Clarksville, Shiloh, Vickiburg, Chattanooga,
Mission Ridge, were not altogether those
which are written on paper. The occupation
of those points beyond all hope of rebel re
demption, is no doubt galling, and cannot
consequently fail to produce an intensely bit
ter feeling to the hero who has never yet been
beaten. As for Gen. Lee being able to defeat
Grant in the open field, it does seem that at
present that officer hugs his entrenchments
with a devotion he never before displayed
since the hour.when he took his last look at
his residence on Arlington Heights. He
reached his present position after Dinah trial
and tribulation, and will doubtless remain in
it until the siege of Vicksburg shall be re
enacted.

WASHINGTON, June 21.
THE PRESIDENT'S DEPARTURE FOR GEN. GRANT'S
The United States dispatch boat, Captain
Mitchell, left the Navy Yard to-day, with
President Lincoln and the Assistant Secretary
of the Navy, for City Point.
It is understood that Mr. Lincoln and As
sistant Secretary Fox have gone to the front
to consult upon the future programme of the
campaign.
For the first time since crossing the Rapi
dan the real plan of General Grant for re
ducing Richmond is growing manifest. It
was never his intention to enter Richmond
from the North, unless the, unforseen, chances
and contingencies of 'battle ehbuld make it an
easy conquest. Nature and art have exhaust
ed themselves-in making it impregnable from
that direction, and General Grant was well
advised of this, at the outset. Bat the
army was on the Rappahannock when he as
sumed the general command, conf onted by
Gen. Lee. To have withdrawn from there,
and transported his army by water from Wash
ington to this place, would have given Lee
time and opportunity, which he rarely
wasted, to have made counter demonstra
tions on
,Washington and the 'Upper Poto
mac, It Was cons dered best to drive the
rebel army before us to Ftiohmond, if it could
not be destroyed sooner; for its destruction,
instead of the capture of one or many rebel
capitals is the grand objective purpose. To
do this effectually, by compelling it to retreat
from Richmond on line of their own, selec
tion, the destruotion of the railroad through
Gordonsville to the westward lieboinee anlm
portant consideration. For this purpose'the
army lay in the vicinity of - Betheeda church
and Coal Harbor a full week longer than it
would otherwise have done; but the railroad
was finally not only destroyed for miles. but
completely annihilated, •So far as the term is
applicable to matter Our mission on that.
dank was then accomplished. • We are now
here; •
While the capture of Petersburg is an ac
complished fact, the Danville Railroad is the
only one that connects the rebel capital with
the Southern Confederacy. The, width of
track on this road is said - to differ from all other
Southern railroads, and will prevent the with
drawal of rolling stock. This road can be
easily threatened, or even deatroyed. from
Petersburg, so that the rebel Government will
feel that Richmond is' held 6y a very slight
tenure. The loss of Petersburg is the virtual
surrender of Richmond.
A glance at the map will convince the most
unbelieving of this. Our communications
will be matchless; tb.eika hopeless. Let the
timid, who Scent disaster,in. every breeze and
borroW trouble from all our movemente, be
assumed that the glorionadampaign of "Picks ;
burg will find a parallel here. There is some
thing very grand and imposing in the slow
and ateady advance of tutu army on Richmond.
It reminds one of the monntai,ns closing in on
the three brothers in the fairy tale,
To-day's session of the House was assigned
for the consideration of the business of the
Military Committee, and was entirely occu
pied by it. It went on quite 'smoothly Until
the bill repealing the commutation clause of
the.. Enrollment act gante . up. It was evident
from the first that a 'large majority was op
posed to repealing it, and the additional sec
tion, prOhibiting the furnishing of substitutes
unless near relatives of the drafted man, did
not aid it in the least. Mr. Schenck argued
in fa.vor of the bill, and urged its passage, as
vitally necessary to carrying on the war; but
it was of no use. A majority of two to one
striking out the first _section, repealing the
commutation, settled the matter, for the pre
sent at least. There was very little excitement
manifested, but the Haase was very full and
the vote large. If the war is to go on the re
peal of the' commutation clause is regarded, as
necessity, but it is evident that neither
Congress nor the people are prepared orit
yet.

The qUestion of the adjoUrnment of Con
greal is eonstantly agitated. The democrats
aro ready at any MOMBEIt. The in;stration
men are anxious. to secure the passage of all
the important measures, and all araworking
industriously to get them through this week.
It is expected that they will all be through by

Maj. General 'am. ,Tone,, Commanding the Con

GENEM&L : I have to acknowledge the re
ceipt this day of your communication of the
13th instant, informing me that five generals
and forty-five field officers of the U. S. aimy,
prisoners of war, have been turned over by
you to Brig. Gcn. Ripley, with instructions to
see that they are provided with quarters in
the part of the city occupied by non-comba
tants, the majority of which latter yon state
are women and children. You add that you
deem it proper to inform me that it is part of
the city which has been for many months ex
posed to the fire of our grins. Many months
since Maj. Gen Gilmore U. S. army notified Gen
Beauregard, then commanding at Charleston,
that the city would be bombarded. This
notice was given that non-combatants might
be removed, and thus women and children be
spared from harm. Gen. Beauregard, in a
communication to General Gilmore, dated
'August 22d, 1303, informed lom that the non
combatant population of Charleston would
be removed with all possible celerity. That
- fhe women and children have been since
retained by you in the part of the city
which has been for many months ex.
posed to fire, is a matter decided by your
own sense of humanity. I must, however,
protest against your action in thus placing
defenceless prisoners of war in a position ex
posed to constant bombardment. It is an in-.
defensible act of cruelty, and can be designed
only to,prevent the continuance of our fire
upon Charleston._ This city is a depot for
military supplies, and contains not merely
arsenals, but, also, foundries and factories for
the manufacture of munitions of war. In its
shipyard several armed ironclads have been
already completed, while others are still upon
the stocks in course of construction. Its
wharies and the banks of the rivers on both
sides of the city are lined with batteries. To
destroy these-means of continuing the war is
therefore our object and d F iti._
Toil seek to defeat this effort, and, by means
not known to honorable warfare, but by plac
ing Unarmed and helpless prisoners under
fire. , have forwarded your communication
to the President - with the request that he will
place in my custody an equal number of pris
oners of like grades to be kept by me in posi
tions exposed to the fire of your guns as long
as you continue the course stated in your com
munication.
