For saying these thiDgs in a publio speech, iu which ho was discussing as a citizons tho affairs of tho Government, ho was sent into exile and banishment, torn from his family and friends, and cruelly punished. This is all the "treason" of which ho was ever guilty. It would bo a good idea to cut out this copy of these charges against Mr. Vallandigham to keep as a memento of what, in Republican estimation, is treason, and ol the degrea of liberty that under it we are allowed. What a Statesman is Lincoln 1 Writers nnd political speakers aro in the habit of quoting great truths from tho sayings of statesmen.

A Lincoln, ''It is easier to pay a debt when you navo tuo money man it is when you havn t got the money. A Lincoln. "I am not a great man."

It makes honest Union mon indignant when thoy read tho resolutions of tho con ventions in Louisana and Florida which arc sought to bo passed off as expressions of revived Southern loyally. Tho fact of negroes being allowed to sit on an equality with whito men in lhe6o gatherings is in itsolf sufficient to expose iheir character. They aro made up not of Southern men, but of cormorants who follow in tho wake of our armies, and who seek by thus im posing on the Administration and tho county to postpone or defeat all gonuino expressions of Southern feeling, nnd to i maintain tbomsolvus in tho possession of their ill gotten gains.
