an hour's delay—a_papbr bullet will do the
rebel sympathizers and their Richmondl allies
as much harm as a leaden one., Don't forget'
to send a loyal ticket to the soldier; she wants
it and he depends lawn you to furnish it.
Withdroviral . of John C.• Fremont frbbi
the Presidential Canvass.
We announced Several days since that
Gen. John Fremont had resolved to with
draw , as a candidate from the ..Presidental
canvass, and daat the weight of his influence
in favor 'of the re-election
,Of Abraham Lin
coln. To-day. ; we publish .the letter; of Gen.
F., announcing in formal termais withdraw
al, and urging with . manly frankneas, the
union of his friendriin favor of Mr. Lincoln
for the safety of the National Union. This step
ensures a glorious triumph. for the friends of
the Governinent at ihe'ballet-hoz
Who are 'the Friehde of the SoidLere '.
The Democratic . State Central Committee,
up to this time, has neither by public address
or secret circular attempied tp congratulate
the soldier on the ' fact that while he perils
his life in defence of the authority and honor
of the country, he can feel that he has a share
in its glory by participating in its civil con
trol through the exercise of the elective fran
chise. Who are the friends of the soldiers?
The Twentk4oirst Congressional District
We never indulge the intensity of our po
litical feelingaltii..traieling out of the bounds
of our duty,tstinterfere with a contest in a dis
tant electiondistrict y in wilfully maligning a
candidate by rOpeating' the notoriously pur
chased,sworn slanders of a shameless political
swindler. We are no believer in State rights,
and yet we do beliOve that the people in almost
every Congressional District in this State, are
competent to decide for themselves, without
otttside cotutsel; on the competency, integrity
and political purity of the candidates before
them for official station. Not so, however,
with the copperhead opponents of the Gov
ernment, the 'army, right and justice. We
had an illustration of this fact yesterday, in
the coarse, malignant, cowardly and unpro
voked attack on Dr. Smith Fuller, the honest,
loyal and. brave-hearted candi date . for Congreas
in the Twenty-first Congressional Distriot. Of
course the object of that base attack was appa
rent on its face. It is not so confidently calcula
ted to injure Dr. Fullerpersonally, as it is that
the lie will benefit John L. DawsOn politi
cally. Hence the perjured falsifiers of the
political, faction . whence this assault Om
notes; are brought before the public in tho con
fession Of their own .villainies and perfidy, to
prove the lack of integrity in a. gentleman
whose reputation is as spotless and as pure as
is those of his defamers filthy and criminal.
In the district where Dr. Fuller is a
candidate,, the bitterest of his opponents
would have spurned the }flan ; ' who could have
dared to utter against him falsehoods such as
were published in reference to that gentle
man in this city yesterday, simply because at
home Dr. F. is known as an honest man and
a patriOt, to slander whom would he to im
peril the good names of all his neighbors.
But John L. Dawsdn, intimidated and im
pressed with the certainty of defeat, when
confronted by the purity and popularity of
his • opponent, could not forego his hatred and
his disposition to malign his political con
testant. Hence, he hired, for a few dirty
dollars, the • assistance of a distant organ of
his party, that he (Dawson) might :procure
for circulation in Ids district an assault which
even he shrank makingfrom personally. Thdse
facts, to our mindi ; -are the evidences" of
Dawson's lessening Prespects of a re-election.
When a man must, resort to such falsehoods
to bolster his emote, it proses • that not only
his cause is a fraud; btXthat he himself is a
cheat. An so far as the Congressional record
of Dawson is concerned, such charges can be
easily established' if profeired ' against him.
Representing a population' eminently loyal
and devoted to the interests , ,of,, the; Union,

the field, and afterwards sought the embarass

levies of troops should be paid in gold,
knowing that the proposition was impractica

negative it, that capital could be manufactured
against the Government. He voted for every
proposition looking to an armistice with a foe

Congress to come home to defeat the amend

yet such a man as this John L. Dawson has
the audacity to travel beyond his District, to
assail and stab his opponent, with the par

hope that he will be beyond the reach 'of Dr.

Lincoln's Electiwthe4nly- Salvation of- Um
' BosTort, Sept. 22.
The following letter of General Fremont's
withdrawal from the canvass as a candidate
for the Presidency, is published to-day:
BOSTON, Sept.:2l.st,-Gintieinen: I feel it my
duty to•make,one.mprOh3p in.the direction
indicated in my letter of:the2.s,tkof August,
and withdraw my name fitimihelist of can
, . K. .
didates.
•The Presidential queation has in effect been
entered upon in such a way that the union
of the Reptiblinan plikEY has been a para
mount necessity. The policy of the Demo
cratic party signifies `either ; "separation or re
establishment with slavery. The Chicago plat
form is simply separation—General..M'Clel
lan's letter of acceptance , is re-establishment
with slavery.
The Republican candidate, on the contrary,
is pledged to. the ;.me-establishment.•• of , the.
Union without 'ilaVery,' and, hoicrev* his
policy may be, the pressure of his, party
we may hope; force hin.. to it. . , • ,
• Between these issues I think no man of the
liberal party can remain in doubt; midi be
lieve I am consistent with ,my, antecedents in
withdrawing, not to aid in the triumph of
Mr. Lincoln, but to do my part toward pre
venting the
. election of the Democratic can
didate. •

the country..
There never was a greatei nnaniinity iu a
country than was exhibited here at the fall of

-strength of the position and divided the ,
North, when he declared to the South that
slavely Should be protected. ;$e has built up,
for the South a strength which otherwise they
I could have.neyer attained, and this has, given
them ,an :advocate of the „Chicago platform.
The Cleveland Convention was to-have 'been
