The "Democratic Party" and Free Speech..
While 'Democratic" presses and orators are
crying "free speech," the people do not for
get that it was the "Democratic party" whiah,
Six years ago, forced upon Kansas, in her
"Black Code," this infamous law:
"If any free person, by speaking or by
writing, assert or maintain that persons have
not the right to hold slaves in this Territory,
or shall introduce into this Territory, print,
publish, write, circulate or cause to be intro
duced into this Territory, any book, paper,
magazine, pamphlet or circular, containing
any denial of the right of persons to hold
slaves in this Territory, such person. shall be
deemed guilty of felony, and punished at hard
labor for a term of not leas than two years.
Nor do they forget that the men who are
now most blatant in their Sire() denunciations
of the "tyranny" of restrictions upon the
"freedom" of treasonable speech, were then
the stout upholders of that infamous legisla
tion to gag the opponents of slavery—even in
a Territory, where slavery did not exist by the
"sovereign right" of State institution. They
remember how many of these men stood, in
reference to that "Black Code" of Kansas,
with George D. Pugh, when in the United
States Senate, who said:
"Sir, I regret the necessity for such legisla
tion; but where slavery exists as an institu
tion laws of this character must be adopted."
Slavery, in the estimation of George. E.
Pugh,'and of all copperheadtilike him, is more
sacred than country. To speak or' to write
against the institution of slavery is a crime
• which demands that penal laws for its sup
pression "must be adopted;" but to spec or to
write against the government of the nation, in
a time of rebellion and fierce war against its
authority, is a constitutional right, the most
trifling interference with which takes prece
dence of the very rebellion that purposes death
to the Constitution, in demanding resistance.
This is the doctrine of modern "Democracy."

I=l
E SAYS SHERMAN MUST BE CRUSHED.
Call For Iteinforebraents.
Lee Too Weak to Hold His Lines.
WASHINGTON, October 6.—The following,
speech, made by Jefferson Davis at Macon,
Ga., September 23, 1864, is extracted from the
columns of the Daily Macon Telegraph and
Confederate of September 24:
LADIES AND GENTLES&EN, FRIENDS AND FEL
LOW-CITIZENS:—It would have gladdened my
heart to have met you in prosperity, instead
of adversity. But friends are drawn together
in adversity. The son of a Georgian, who
fought through the first Revolution, I would
be untrue to myself if I should forget the
State in her day of peril.
What if misfortune has befallen our arms
from Decatur to Jonesboro; our cause is not
lost. Sherman cannot keep up his line of
communication and retreat. Sooner or later
he must; and when that day comes the fate
that befel the army of the French empire in, its
retreat from Moscow will be re-enacted. Our
avalry and our people will harass and destroy
his army as did the Cossacks that of Napoleon;
and the Yankee General, like him, will escape
with only a bqdy guard.
ow can this be the'most speedily effected?
By the absentees of Hood's army returning to
their posts; and will they not? Can they see
the banished exiles; can they hear the call of
their suffering...countrywomen qnd children
and not come ? By what influences they are
made to stay away it is not necessary to speak.
If there is one who will stay away at this hour
he is unworthy of the name of Georgian. it
the women no appeal - is necessary. They are
like the Spartan mothers of old. I know of
one who has lost all her sons, except one of
eight years. She wrote that she wanted me.
to reserve a place for him in the ranks.
The venerable General Polk, to whom I read
the letter, knew that woman well, and said it
was characteristic of her; but I will not weary
you by turning aside to relate the various in
cidents of giving up the last son to the cause
of our country, known to me. Wherever we
go we find the hearts and hands of our noble
women enlisted. They are seen wherever
the eye may fall or the step turn. They have
one duty to perform; to buoy up the hearts of
our people. I know the deep disgrace felt by
Georgia at our army falling back from Dalton
to the interior of the State.
But I was not of those who considered
Atlanta lost when our army crossed the Chat
tahoochee. I resolved:that it should not, and
I then put a man in command who I knew
would strike a manly blow for the city, and
many a Yankee's blood was made to nourish
the soil before -the prize was won. •It does
not become' sto revert to disaster. La the
dead bury the dead. Let us, with one arm
and one effort, endeavor to crush - Sherman.
I am going to the army to- Confer with our
Generals. The end must be the defeat of our
enemy.
It has been said that I abandoned Georgia
to her fate. Shame upon such falsehood!
Where ootadi thA anther - littWe been — when'
Walker, when Polk, and when Gen. Stephen
D. Lee was sent to her assistance! Miserable
man! The man who uttered - this was a
scoundrel. He was not a man to save our
country. If I knew that a General did not
possess the right qualities to command, would
I not be wrong if he was not removed! • Why,
when our army was falling back from Northern
Georgia, I even heard that I had sent Bragg
with pontoons to cross it to Cuba.
But we must be charitable. The man who
can speculate ought to be made to take up his
musket. When the war is over and our inde
pendence won— and we will establish our inde
pendence—who will be our aristocracy ? I
hope the limping soldier. To the young ladies .
I would say that when choosing , between an
empty sleeve and the man who' had remained
at home and grown rich, always take the
empty sleeve.
Let the old men remain at home and make
bread. But should they know of any young
man keeping away from the service, who' can
not be made to go any other way, let them
write to the Executive. I read all letters sent
me from the people; but I have not the time
to reply to them. You have not many men
between eighteen and forty-five left. The
-boys, God bless the boys, are as rapidly as they
become old enough going to •the 'field. ...The
city of Macon is filled with stoma, sick and
wounded. It must not be abandoned when
threatened; but when the enetray Come, in
stead of calling upon Hood's army foi defence,
the old men must fight; and when the enemy
is driven beyond Chattanooga, they too Can
join in the general rejoicing.
Your prisoners are kept as a sort of Yankee
capital. I have heard that one of their Gen
erals said that their exchange would defeat
Warman. I have tried °Very means, conceded
everything to effect au exchange, but to 'no
purpose. Butler, the Beast, with whom the
Commissioners of Exchange would hold inter
course, had published in the newspapers that
if he would consent to the exchange of ne
groes, all difficulties might be removed. This
he reported as an effort of qiie to-get himself
whitewashed by holding intercourse with gen
tlemen.
If an exchange could be effected, I don't
know but that I might be induced to recog
nize Butler. But in the future every effort
will be given, as far as possible, to effect the
end. We want our soldiers in the field; and
we want our sick and wounded to return home.
It is not proper 'for me•to speak of the num
ber of men in the field, but this I will say,
that t*thirds of our men are absent,,some
sick, sckrie wounded, but most of them absent
Without leave. The man who repents and
goes back to his commander voluntarily, ap
peals strongly to executive clemency.
But supposele 2 s4ys away until the war is
over, and his comrades return home, and
when every man's history will be told, where
will he shield himself? It is upon these re
flections that we rely to make men return to
their duty, but after conferring with our gen
erals at headquarters, if there be any oilier
remedy it shall be applied. I loyeinyfriends,
and I forgive my enemies. I have been asked
to send reinforcements from Virginia to Geor
gia., In Virginia the disparity in numbers is
lust as great as it is in Georgia. Then I have
been asked why the army sent to the Shenan
;doah Valley was not sent here. It was be
,cause an.army" of the, energy, had - p orte t n it e d

two corps of his army to protect it `This the
enemy denominated a raid. If so . Sliernian's
march into Georgia is a raid. iThat would
prevent them now if Early was withdrawn
from taking Lynchburg, and putting a com
plete cordon of men around Richmond? I
counselled with that great and brave soldier.
General Lee, upon all these points. My mind
roamed over the whole field. With this we
can succeed.
It one half the men now absent with ou t
leave will return to duty, we can defeat the
enemy. With that hope I am going to the
front. I may not realize this hope, but I know
there are men there who have looked death in
the face too often to despond now. Let no one
despond. Let no one distrust, and remember
that if genius is the beau ideal, hope is the
reality.
Kearney vs, McClellan.
THE PENENSIJLAR,CANIPA/GN-M'CTXT•TAN'S
POLIT
ICAL FORSEEN BY GEN. KEARNEY
ITS EFFECT 'UPON THE MANAGEMENT OF THE
ARMY AT THAT TIME.
The following extracts from a private letter
of the lamented Kearney, written June 23,
1862,, two days before the commencement of
the seven days' battles, shows that the polit
ical ambition of the "Young Napoleon" had
its origin as far back as the Peninsula cam
paign, and that his motives were fully read by
the soldier, who was far more than his equal
in every respect. The letter has never be
fore been printed:
•
"Ile has now got us in a queer pbsition,
which is neither witty nor bright. The golden
season of attack is lost. We have allowed
them to collect more men, to establish more
forts, to plant heavier guns, and to try forays
in our rear. With all my desire of pushing
ahead, I think that it is now nearly too late;
at least; if we do it, it will only be by more
litizardous ventures, and infinitely more blood
shed than at any previous period. Our last
chance (the ninth or tenth thrown away) was
after the battle of Fair Oaks, when all our
troops should have been brought into action,
and our way forced into Richmond. Then it
might - and most probably would have been
successful.
"Now, I must say that I fancy M.cClellan has
Calmly resigned himself to waiting for rein
forcements. But in doing this, the enemy
collect two men to our..one, while McClellan
testifies his fears by throwing up fortifications
at every point, as if we were a beaten army.
It breaks down the men by 'overwork, and
cowers' them by'his proof of distrust, and you
will soon find that the enemy will throw him
self on our communications, and -repeat his
forays—perhaps, even •-to forcing us to retire to
cover them. McClellan is no General, with all
his talents. He has not theremotestaptitude
for war. I sometimes fear; from his manage
ment of this war, that he regards it more in a
political than, a military point of view—that he
desires to time his military conquest latth, a certain
political ripeness of the South—at best, a very
hazardous matter, when it is with the astute,
and wily, and unprincipled Southerner that he
attempts to play such a game, and when one
reflects that it engenders delay, which is the sure
defeat of all armies."
A RICHMOND GUESS AM GRANT'S PLAN Or
CAMPAIGN.-A Richmond paper of a recent
date says : "A heavy force is to be poured
into the Valley to capture ' Lynchburg, the
Tennessee Railroad and the James river canal,
and to obtain permanent possession of the
Danville railroad. The Central railroad is
to be taken and held by a column pushed on
from Fredericksburg to the Junction, .which
will give him the command of both roads.
They are to lend a hand to anotluir column to
be landed at theelnite Rouse. `'Richmond is
thus to be cut off from all cortammication, and
finally invested by a. powerful army, and, the
Yankees belieVe they will capture it and Lee's
whole army."

OPINIONS OP THE CHARLESTON "MERCURY " ON
EARLY'S EXPEDITION AND. HIS' DEFEATS - SE
VERE CRITICISM OF THE REBEL MILITARY
.POLICY.
WASEDIGTON, Oct. 7:
File of the Charlestton. (S. 0.) papers, in
cluding those of the 28th ult., have been re
ceived here.
The Mercury contains a. letter from Rich
mond admitting that "the situation" is seri
ous. "Fisher's Hill," the correspondent says,
"is the strongest position in the Shenandoah
valley, and Early has been driven from that,
and to insure deliverance we must call out and
concentrate every available man."
The Mercury. says: "When Early assumed
the aggressive and crossed the Potomac into
Maryland, we ventured to express the opinion
that such a movement could produce nothing
but evil to our cause. The subsequent burn
ing down of Chanibersburg, and the military
flourishes about W al3hington, only confirnied
our fears. Time has passed on, and now we see
realized.the fruits of this -expedition. The
army it* raised is -in' the *alley of Virginia
before` General' Early.. It has defeated him
in to batting, -Isio•. is this : all. ThAma twn
battles have added-powerfully in the enforce
ment of the draft now going on in that country,
and will thus add tens of thousands more to
our enemies in the field. To our comprehen
sion it was clear thtft Early's expedition into
Maryland was liki3 that of General Longstreet
to Knoxville. It was a part of that kind of
policy which has continually cloggkul our Suc
cess, and destroyed its fruits before they are
realized. It is this which -has coat Jul .the
half of Georgia. 'General Hood was faithful
to it when. he sent all his cavalry away' and
insured the fall of Atlanta." •
