We give this week parts of the Con gressional Address recently issued by Demoeratio members of Congress, and will hereafter givo other extracts. Tho length of the Address prevents its publication cn tiro in one number of our paper, but as tbo subjects treated by 'it are arraoged un der appropriate heads, iit can be given. con veniently in detached mparts. SB Old Abe's ultimatum, "tho aban donment of Slavory" as tho sole condition of peaoo, brings tho "Eclcslastical and Historical viow of Slavery" by Bishop Hopkins, once moro prominently before tho public Wo have already rccommond ed it as a work of most profound research and ability, which ought io be in lie hands of every man in thooountry. Wo under stand a few copies can still be had of Col. freeze also a few of JUcUlellan s Kepori. t&- It is whispered by the knowing ones, that the Philadelphia Loyal League has completed arrangements for buying up nil tbo preachers in tho State of Pennsyl vania, who can be bought, and they enm priso tho largo majority ; and intend to havo them tako tbo stump this fall in fa vor of Lincoln, dcspotism,drafts and blood shed. We shall thereforo very soon hear these apostles of peace howl for war, theso sheep in wolves clothing, who havo sold their Master and themselves for green backs, assume tho blood-stained garment of a Judas, and howl to the Loyal Leagues in favor of tho innocence of theft, rapine nnd murder. Surely tho League has dono well. And wo suppose thirty nieces, not of silver.will purchase tho soul and bodv of each one of the crew, whoso "Hungry sheep look up, anu are not leeu." Jt Tho President's Fast Day was seized upon by our Preachers as a ftjio oo casion to preach a political harangue and tboy improved it vaaily. Mayor Guntbcr was denounced for ask-' ing tho Now York clergy to pray for poaos Drafted men, not reporting wora Btigma tized as sympathizers I and many other eilly things said by theso sleek apolo jits for despotism, and defenders of divine right.

The National Intelligencer of Saturday last gives a j exhaustive icsume of General 2 Grant's recent Virginia campaign. Tho conclusion it arrives at seems to bo. I. That the plan of tho campaigu was a mistako ; General Grant having eiihor fenso. 3. That cverv movement of tho cam s' naicn was unsuccessful, the only exception ... being tlio capture of a rebel division on the Po. 3 That very little tactical skill was dis- played in any of the engagements, which oonsisted simply of pushing masses of men against strong works, boforo which they were uselessly slaughtered.

Lincoln's influence upon tho campaign. General Grant was successful at Vioksburg when no llid nnt fallow BIr- Lincogm's advice, as laLter acknowledged in a letter, and his failuro in Virginia is undoubtedly due to his adoption of Mr. Lincoln's wish for n ovorland campaign. Io this circuro- stance anu to Ins repeated denials of Ge.v. Grant's rcquosts in -regard to changes among his subordinate generals, can be traced all tho disasters in Virginia. Thoro seems to bo a curso upon everything Mr Lincoln meddles with in a military way. The New U. S. Stamp Duties , for 1864. Messrs. T. B.

Nothing can bo more clear, after Mr. (Llnooln'8 announcement, then tho fact that this Administration is unoblo to mako .ooln. That polioy which gave and Btill B'ves to tho originators and leaders of secession and rebellion their cntiro hold on tho people ol tlio South is to no con ... .. i .1 . - i tinucd as long as tho present incumbent governs tho national oourso. Is it not worth tho whilo of sober men to look this fact straight in tho face ! What pcaco does Mr. Lincoln look for, if any 1 Two yearo ago he listened to tho loud ory of rampant nbnliiionism, nnd thought, ap parently, that it was tho voiou of a groat pooplo, who would stand by him if ho ad optod their views and oboyed their behests. Ho oboyed. Now he ovidently imagines that tho same voioo continues to sound, and that tho same pcoplo will recleot him on tho principlo of war to tho extiootion of slavery, whalovor tho cost, however dis tant tho accomplishment. Ho is mistaken or wo aro. Thcro it a widespread and increasing feeling in tho Republican party in favor of tho return to constitution and to reason. It is linio to stop this polioy of giving tho enemy strength and cohes ion. If there had been good sencc to the amount of a grain of mustard scud in tho counsels of tbo Administration, wo should long ago have seen tho attompt tuado to divide instead of uniting tho robcls. If, in 1601 or 1802, tho policy of the Admin istration bad been a strict adherence to tho Crittenden Resolutions, thora is no doubt now remaining that a pcaco party would havo risen in tho South, wonld havo gained strength under the prcssuro of the adversities ot war, would havo become powerful in many of tho States, and would havo so far wcaknod tho strength of tho robel leaders that tboy would by this time, perpaps long boforo this time, havo bocn compcllod to seek terms of peace and sub mission. No calm review of the history of tlio past threo years can fail to make this apparent. Wo do not aecuso Mr. Lincoln of a contrary design ; but we do solemnly impeach tho men who led the Republican party, beforo God and their country, of the doliberato dstcrniiuation to prevent a restoration of tho Union, and to exclude tho population of tho Southern Ibtates, at least ior this generation, from voting power in tho national councils, is there a man of sense who doubts the truth of this accusation 7 If thcro be, lot him pause now and review tho past and ho will givo his vordict, beyond a question, against the radical political leaders, as moral traitors of tho most wicked kind. It was a lamentable weakness of Mr. Lin coln that bo believed those men to bo tho representatives of a pooplc's mind. Ho was thus led into tho grandest eirors of modern, nay of all politioal history. To accomplish their objects, the liberty of tho citizen was a small sacrifice in their view. So long as tboy held power they feared nothing, and they resolved to hold power until the end of their livcs,and transmit it, if they might, to their children. They had this advantage, that the pcoplo had been accustomed, by party habit and al liance, to follow party leadors. They know that they could load on masses with them, by this habit of follow-my-leador partisanship. But they mi-caloulatcd the extent to which this would enable them to go It was easy to laugh at debt, to dc- nuo the horrors of war, to persuade men that the future was brilliant before them. But now that debt is felt, that warstretches its clouds of gloom over all tho land clouds with crimson streaks portending cither a day of storm or a setting sun, -tho pcoplo arc awakening to tho character and dosign of the men they have followed- Would to God that the f resident could catch somo of tho wisdom that begins to inspire tho pcoplo ! I he war oannot end under the admin istration of Abraham Lincoln, unless he abandons his evil counselors, changes his wholo polioy, revokes his proclama tions to all whom it may concern, and takes tho Constitution as his guide and the object of his sworn support. Tho issue is presented plainly to the pooplo war till the abolition of slavery is fully accom plished, or peace under tho Constitution.

Nor is there any promise of success in such a measure. We have now twice as many men under arms as the rebels, and if this number is kept good they ean bring the war to a close just as soon as it co.ild bo dono with double that ntimber,antl with vastly less sacrifice of men and mcuus. Wo havo had quite too many of these spasms. Still another administration paper, the Now York evening Post, has a leading ed itorial on tho call to which wc would call attention ot every citizen. The Post goes on to spoak of what one hundred thous and men might accomplish if wo had them ready for tho field now as wo ought to have, and says : But the shape in which the President has chosen to put his demand is, wc arc constrained to say, pretty suro to do the vory reverse. To threaton a prcmptory draft now, when eveybody boliovcs the war is nearly ended ; to demand men for threo years when the strugglo should bo and must be over in six month ; to call for half a million men whon the country nau rigntiy or wroDgiy imagined iuat a hundred thousand would suffice to termi nated tho struggle, this docs appear to us to misunderstand tho spirit ot the Auicri cau people, nnd to blunder. This is apnareitt in tho first nlaco. bc- .oause it is sure to be misunderstood by all our cnomies abroad and at home. It will bo received as a confession of weakness ami not as a sign of strength ; it will bo regar ded as a compliment to the reistiug pow er ol tho rebels ; it will bo quoted as an official acknowledgement that unless our army, already so vast, is mado stronger by half a million of men, wo shall fail.
