The Assessments.
Friday next, the 30th inst., will be the last
day for the assessment of those desiring to
Vote at the October election. It is important
that these facts should be generally known, as
the exercise of the elective franchise %ever in
volved so high a duty, 'never was invested'
with such vast importance, because the result
of the elections to be held in October and No
vember throughout the country, will directly
decide the peace of the Union and ,perma
nency of the government. Hence, the man
who wilfully neglects to secure his vote by
having himself assessed and paying his taxes,
may be regarded as having been recreant to
his country in the hoar of its greatest peril.,
Let no Man, then, fail to be assessed—let no;
man, in fact, fail to take advantage of every le=
gal provision for the exercise -of the elective
franchise, as - upon the victoryof loyal men at
. the ballot box, depends the victory of the
Government with armed traitors. Remember,
that lriday next, the 30th inst., Is Tum LAST DAY
ron THE ASSESSMENTS-!.
irAll for Little' AMC:"
The copperhead organs are keeping up their
courage and hoodwin •;ng their blind follow
era with all sorts of -falsehoods among th
most ridiculous of which is the pub:
lication of a long list of names of worn
out political hacks and discarded journals,
as all being for Little,Mac. 'l'he object of the
miserable ruse is to delude ignorant men with
the idea that hundreds of people are leaving
the ranks of the party which supports Mr.
Lincoln to espouse the canOW.of. McClellan.=
Such men as Amos:K=44 Beverdy John.
son, Brutus L. Clay, George D: Prentice, with
journals of the class to. which belong dui
National Intelligeheir audit 0 routsville Jour.
nal, are cited as eviditnees - ofthese changes, but
when it is clearly known that all these op':
posed the first election of Mr. Lincoln; the
ludicrousness- of making "a blow" on ac
count of their support of McClellan, becomes
apparent. Not a single man or newspaper that
supported Abraham Lincoln in' 1860, now op
pose him. While this is so, such Democrats
as Ex-Governor Tod of Ohio, John Cessna of
Pennsylvania, and Daniel ' S. Dickinion of
New York, who all opposed Mr. Lincoln in
1800, now ardenay , advocate his re-election!
Thorns in the Side of Democracy.
There are two great facts connected with
the campaign for the Presidency, which irri
tate the Democracy alarmingly. First, the
largest and most respectable portion of the
American' ministers of all denominations
in the free States, are heartily in favor
of the re-election of Abraham Lincoln. It
is not the man, altogether, whom the
clergy support, however deserVing Mr.
coin is of the confidence reposed in him.
It is the principles at stake. It. is God's reli
gion that is involved: Abraham Lincoln is
to-day the embodiment of a greater principle,
than ever was centered in any American states
man, from the day that our fathers resolved
to dissolve their connection with the British
Crown. It is ' 'a principle as sacred as religion
itself, involving the.dearest hopes of the poOr
man, and leading back to God and heaven,
an entire race of Christ's brethren. If Mr.
Lincoln should fail, Christianity would be
more or less impaired in its power for good on
earth; because the worst feature of barbarism,
that which justifies a barter in human flesh,
would be legalized; If George B. M'Clellin
should become President, then immediately
after his inauguration, slavery would be na
tionalized—the selling of human beings would
be resumed on the porches of the Federal
capital—while ignorance and sloth, oonctaii
nage and lechery, lust and licentiousness would
attend' as the handmaidens of slavery, the
slow but sure retrogression of a nation hack
to barbarism. None understand this better
t h at , the enlightened and liberal Christian
minister. Hence, a large majority of the
Christian ministers of the land are in favor of
the re-election of Abraham Lincoln, because
the issues involved in, his success seriously
affect for good or evil, so far as it is posdible
for men to do so, God's religion. It is not
the politics of the' contest which • attract the
clergy to our standard. In fact, - the ministry
have not come to ns. The surging of the
great slave-holders' rebellion has rather
carried the straggle for liberty into the
sacred precincts of the pulpit, so that
the Christian minister who does not take
part in the fight is unfaithful to the .great
Master, who uttered the , suillimest polie
jail axle= that ever Ara'.:spoken on earth,
when he•urged that We' iihotdd 'tender unto
Cow the things which Ate Olneer's." Hence
we Insist, that the brave:; ; Wen,. preachins
of the gospel of the /iii.iog-God,-**citake
_part in-the -present syruggle,for civilize •. 1
and liberty, are only defending and upholding I
the first great principles of their religion.
The preacher of God's religion, who lacks
the courage to cry out against the sin of sla
very, is either a fool or a knave, unfit to teach
men and women the way to. Hesven,, and un
worthy the confidence of the Ohristtan and the . '-.
patriot. But the out-spoken, fearless Christiatif,
minister, who upholds a roan in power while
declaring the emancipation from slivery of
millions of God's creatures, is the man who
forms a target for modern Democrats:
is brave men like these who now support Abra
ham Lincoln's re-election. No wonder, then,
that the allies of slaVeri and treason hate
such men.. , _
There is
.another class-whom the treason,:
sympathizer hates.- It is composed-of L icen
who, still claiming ;to D`emocrats openly
and- fearlessly aatvcate the re-eleetidn
Abraham Lincoln, because they believe that
in his success is involfed' the highest in
terest of our nationfility. This class ',of
men are sagacious and far-seeing.. Heretofore
they imparted all the vigor, all the decendy,
all the prestage, all the strength for'VictOry,
and all the Statesmanship which. the Dem
ocratic organization _ever possessed. - Thefr
separation from the Democratio'organitation
does not dissolve their connection with Dem
ocratic principles ; but it does leave.the, new
leaders of that party in .a wofaLplight. Hence
the vindictiveness and the spleen with which
independant Demoetats are assailed by the ad
venturers who have control of the Demoeratie
organization. These men know that Alley
cannot wield that organizatipir for geed- 7
they see the best blood, the largekit
the steadiest courage, the experienee and re
nown of the old party againstthem. 'Hence
their wrath. But it is a wrath fitipotent. The.
Cessnas and the Toils, Dickins4S arsd
the Butlers, the Cassea,..and, the Eoseerans,
the Hiesters and the Ounnirighams; .thg Itac-4
Dowells and . the Speels; belong *to a 'elas4
who, when the proper time comes, 141 t
return to the Democratic party, spanning
false leaders from their assumed control'
'b its
organization, and again, under purer ineentii , 44
and for loftier purposes, than , those wild(
now inspire its leaders, control it for •the
good for which it was originally called into
existence. ; .

The rebel Forrest, with his whole force, ad
vanced on and destroyed the Sulphur Spring
trestle work yesterday. Colonel Pace, cora=
niaiiding the Elk river bridge, evacuated that
post at daylight. Forrest took possession this
morning. His force is estimated at 7,000
_strong with three batteries.
- On Saturday, in the fight at Athens, 500 men
of the 6th and Bth Indiana cavalry were cap
tured.
Forrest is reported to . have butchered all
the negroes captured who were in the Federal
uniform..
CAnto, Sept. _ 26 —Refugees from near Fort
Pillow report that .a rebel force from Tennes

Smith, was encamped 40 miles from the fort.
