LINCOLN. - HONESTY OF JOHN BULL. Up until n year ago, how cordial were the relations existing between the Aboli, tionists and their patron, John Bull? The courtesies extended from one set to the other were charming; the mother country, ' when speaking of England from this side the water, and our descendants, from the other, when alluding to us, were the pleas ant phrases with which each alluded to the other. Both the friends of civilization throughout the world, actuated by the same lofty - motives, the spread of free principles, and both the same flesh and blood, speaking the same language and professing the same religion. LASS was the sort of twaddle indulged in by our trans-atlantic cousins and our sniffling Abolitionists, up until a few months since. But, oh, what a change has taken place with these canting hypocrits? As soon as Bull got us fairly into a fight among our selves; when hostilities had begun in ear nest and certain - of continuing until our country was bankrupt and the South made desolate, it was then that he began to ex hibit the heartless hypocrisy of his for mer professions. Now the relationship existing between the tories of England and the people of this country has singularly changed. The Northern masses and armies are a "vile 1 horde," composed of a mongrel race of European vagabonds, principally low _lrish and Dutch, while the Southern rebels are denominated what the abolitionists used to pass for, "our own flesh and blood." The London Morning herald, the pow erful organ of Lord Derby, taking this rare view of our civil war, declares that Eng land should at once interfere. and save '•its own descendents in the South, who are fighting for Liberty, against a furious horde of ignorant Northerners. The peo ple of the South are now the peculiar de scendents of John Bull ; they are his own flesh and blood, speaking the same eupho nious sentences, and piously worshipping at the same shrine. Our once abolition , pets of England ; the descendents of the Puritons ; the rigid advocates of English customs, and the fond remembrancers of her ancient glory and renown, are now set down as being degenerate, the mere equals of a mongrel offspring of Irish and Dutch, low hod carriers and base lackey peasants, whom their over populated countries daily vomit forth upon the shores of our North ern coasts and cities. Alas, for the lost prestige of—genuine Abolitionism ; when its own natural parent pronounces it bas tard and casts it off to heartless fosterage. Now that the unnatural parent has cast it off forever, perceive how he is enabled to see and appreciate its deformity. The Herald says Another symptom of increasing ferocity —a new source of frightful crime on one side and provocation of horrible vengeance on the other—is disclosed in the demand made in New York for the Abolitionist proclamation. So far as its nominal pur port goes, this would be as futile as fir. Lincoln's other edicts. Before he can I etifineipatethe Southern negroes he must conquer the South._ But the demand is _not made with a view to the real liberation of the slaves. It is meant "to diminish the rebel army by calling away many of ficers and men to the defence of their homes." The oNect is not negro emanci pation. but servile insurrection : not the manumission of slaves, but the subordina tion of atrocities such as those of Cawn• pore and Meerut against the women and children of Southern families. For the negro the Northerners care nothing, ex cept as a possible weapon in their hands by which the more safely and effectually to wreak a cruel and cowardly vengeance on the South. Inferior in every respect to the Sepoys, the negro race would, if once excited to rebellion, outdo them in acts of outrage as they would fall below them in military cou:agc. They may be useful as assassins and in cendiaries ; as soldiers against Ihe - domi nant racC they would be utterly worthless. Fortunately, there is no probability that the North would be able to kindle any general or extensive negro insurrection. Oa the lines of the Mississippi - there might be tieeirsionaloutbreaks and moncreus de sertions, a good mazy 'plantations itirgiti be fired, and a number of fugitives mig' t be added to the Federal army. But neither the issue of the struggle nor the f a te dills servile race would be thereby would only be made leAfertieioutiand the condition of the slaves more mbierable. Happily, there is every reason to believe that the sober Sense of the President, and the strong atei-abolitionist feeling of the Northern pe tple at large, will prevent this horrible .ionsummation, and that we shall not see an infamous crime committed under the do if; of a spurious and late horn philan thropy. These new Abolitionists do not conceal their motives: they have not the decency to pretend couvietion; th, , y seek avowedly nothing but an inslrninmit of vengeance on their enemy, and an instru me et so dastardly, involving the commis sion of outrages so horrible, that even the Government which employs a Mitchell and a Butler must shrink from such a load of infamy.- A DRAFT It is now reduced to a certainty that Al legheny county will havo to draft, and that extensively, in order to furnish her pro portion of troops called for by the govern ment. This 14eing the case, the next point is to have an impartial and honest draft. Let every ward, township and borough in the county furnish a thorough and com plete list of those subject to he drafted. and everything will go oil satisfactorily. We do not wish to hear of any sint.rt as sessor neglecting to report, certain nantos in his district heoanso of his Itavit,g. re ceived something hand: , 'ene qtt; and ,elv. re p a y ..:I;••rai,n of fiml c p rat .l e x. tid each pus;cl.

It is, how ever, of toe first importance that, in times of great public calamity and danger like the present—in "the camp" for military purposes, and in the "assemblies of the people" for civil purposes—there should be all practicable unanimity and unity of action. Organization, however, being in dispensable, it only remains to in quire how can the friends of the Consti tution and the Union best ca-operate for civil purposes against their enemies? Before Heaven I declare it, to he my most solemn conviction that the, only organiza tion under which such Illinois should rally is that of the Democratic party. Point out a better organization to accomplish these ends, and with all my love, yea, veneration Ihr that glorious old party that, when in power, gave the chief of greatness and prosperity to the country, still I would leave it and juin that better organization. But, my countrymen, throw aside all bias of previous affiliations, and ask y - ourselve 3, with deep, patriotic selieiinde, is there 'any other thoroughly loyal party in this State at this time except the Democratic party? Is there any other party here that has not the sympathy, at least, as against the Democratic, of such Abolitionists as Sumner, Phillips, Greeley, Wade and Wi.- mot ? What is the character of that party in this State, whose representatives met at Harrisburg on the 17th day of July last? Look at their resolutions and see with what warmth they embrace Senator Wilmot, the Abolitionist. But how do they treat Sen ator Cowan who, although elected by a R epublican ) Legislature, yet his course in the present. Con g ress has proven him to be a patriot, and of course not an Abolition ist? Lo they tender their embraces to stimulate and Witrlll to renewed efforts in his patriotic course! Not at all—nut at all. Doubtless they feit that in most un ceremoniously endeavorieinignitiii;iitibr;4647iclaiiiimy lets out in the cold" l perish. n conclusion ! The'rit tire that glows in the hearts ot the p p at eople of Pennsylvania, is intense au d widespread enough to warm the heart and reinvigorate the spirit of every patriot. A word more in titinelusion ill*" rig* to the war. I understand tnelnialicrr the Democratic Nifty iti , PeifleylShis be, that it should be pionect* *ler thn, Constitution for the l ies . toifition • oflltirt Union; that, accordingto the resolution of Congress adopted in Arty, 1861, it should not be waged in any spirit of oppression, for any purpose - of conquest or subjuga tion, or purpose of overthrowing or inter fering witn the rights or established insti tutions of these States; but to defend and' maintain the supremacy of the Constitu tion and to preserve the Union, with all the dignity, equality and rights of the sev er»! States unimpaired, and that as soon as these objects are accomplished, the war ought to cease. A war of " conquest or taiblugation," means eternal disunion. !I means the overthrow of the Constitution and the Union. It means anarchy and despotism. Consequently, Democrats and other loyal men seek to limit the purpose of this war to the supprepsion of the rebel lion under the Constitution, and that the Constitution and the Union shall not be destroyed under the false pretence of pre- ,:er.ting them. It is, as [ understand it, the firm purpose of ie Democratic party to defena and assist the officers of the Fed eral Government in all their efforts under the Constitution to put down all the ene mies of the Constitution and the Union. 111 Democrats, whether in the camp or in the . asseinblies of the people.'' will so treat these enemies, whether they he known as Secessionists or Abolitionists. St. Louis in Danger. The Anzieger des Westens, a German parwr published in St. Louis, Missouri, in its issue of 1.‘10,16:ty, declares,that City to be in. danger. It say.; : '• Twice we have warned our fellow• citizens and told them that a design was ripening to obtain possession of St. Louis. Gur warning has been taken too easy: some have smiled incredulously. others shruggedikieir shoulders. In short, no one seemr-tto think on the fearful mean ing of such an event. Since then we have heard of three rebel camps in our county, in the vicinity °four city, which have been dispersed by our military. and yesterday evening Our military authorities received the reliable intelligenee that eighte.en mike North of St. I .rinis.in the woods of Spanish fund. rt eltlllp of one thousand rebels is located. The secessionists in the city hear t heir heads high, and the boldest among them boast already that in a few days St. Louis will be in their possession. "We new ask Governor Gambl e and the military commander, General Scho• fedd, respectfully. whether they do :tot. in in give the citizens sum)' eXplatlatiOnn about our position, and-about the mens• that are necessary for our defence.

'llls inverse proportion in the strength of the Northern and Southern armies would, it uninterrupted, soon bring the contest to a close. Congress must act with promptness and decision; the ravages and gaps in our armies must be supplied with new troops. It is necessary, to se cure the fortunes of the contest, to make new drafts on our people. They can endure it, for what is there of inconveni ence, privation, or hardship that 'is not preferable to .the horrors of subjugation? While our army slitters front the flux of deserters and stragglers, the North is re doubling its exertions to crush us. If, these exertions are not to be encountered by any new ardor in the administration of, President Davis; if they are not to be checked by any aggressive movement, any new essay of policy, any departure from the habits of the back track, Congress will be the only power the country can look to o meet the growing and formidable pre- Arations of the North. It will do so in ie most practical and useful way, by en larging the conscription law to the utmost limits, and putting, without delay, the whole available military force of the South in the field. Now and Then The Buffalo Courier draws a comparison between the Congress which put down the rebellion under Jackson and that which encourages it under Lincoln. The Con gress under Jackson was composed of such men as Henry Clay and Silas Wright; that under Lincoln is made up of very different material. The Courier puts the difference in policy in the two bodies in a very different light : "Under Jackson, the policy of Con gress was to remove all pretext of rebel lion; under Lincoln, it has been to furnish the rebels fuel with which to feed the treasonable flames they had kindled.— Under Jackson, Congress recognized its duty to endeavor by all honorable means to avert war: under Lincoln, it, has acted as if ite first and only duty was to make an end of a local institution, OxistiFig, bv vir tue of State law, by nieanaof war. ,trtulet- Jackson's Administration, Congrestflabor ed to save the Union; under Lincoln's it has sought, in every possible way, to de stroy it, and all hope of its restoration. h : . - aba Z 'T da jaftepoorkedight . or Om of Iheftiewlienrcinel 'EqinfOirere otit on a'PrivateirreOnt or - their ownilook ing for the stragglers from Porter's main body. Eight miles from Edina they espied Colonel Frisbie H. McCullough, who had abandoned Porter, and was now alone making his way eastward. Espying them he entered.the brush. They surrounded the place. One brave man—Mr. Holmes of Edina—volunteered to penetrate the lair of the liion. He did so. McCul lough raised his rifle and threatened to kill him if he did not instantly retire.— Nothing daunted, Mr. Holmes also raised his gun and demanded an instant surren der. The brave Colonel saw the odds against him and surrendered. They con veyed him to Edina—placed him in charge of Captain Sells. The next mornings train with an armed escort proceeded from Edina to Kirksville. McCullough was sent along. On arriving .at Kirksville the news of the capture of the famous guerrilla excited the utmost en thusiasm among our troops. He was con fined a brief time with the other prisoners. Meantime a court martial was held, and he was sentenced to be shot that very afternoon. He received the information of his fitte with considerable composure, but protested against it. Leaning against the fence he wrote a thw lines to his wife. These, with his wateh,•he delivered to the officer, to be given to her. Upon the way to his execution he requested the privi lege to give the command to fire, which wits granted. All being ready, he said— " What I have dune, I have done as a prin ciple of right. Aim at the heart. Fire!" The command taking the soldiers by sur prise, one fired sooner than the rest. The ball entering his breast he fell, while the other shots passed over him. Falling With one leg doubled under the body. he requested to have it straightened out.— While this was being done, he said. "I I orgive you for this barbarous act." The squad litoing reloaded their pieces. another volley was fired, this time into his body, and he died. His remains were committed to friends in the place.

INGERSOLL ARRESTED .tc., de., de., dc. ILA nurmA, August 25i—The Bulle tin says: A gentleman who left the Rap pahannock at eleven o'clock yesterday morning has given us some interesting in formation, part of which may be given to the public without vi olating t he regulations of the War Department. Our troops have had frequent skirmish es with the rebels in falling back from the Rapidan, but the losses have not been heavy on either side. We hold the rail road bridge across the river as well as two commanding positions on the other side, from which the enemy have several times vainly tried to drive us. Our troops distributed along the river for a number of miles have successfully resisted various efforts of the enemy to cross, and it is believed that we can main tain our position until the junction of the other army corps will make us strong enough to resume the offensive. Continual cannonading was heard all along the lines, and cavalry skirmishes were frequent. The rebels are apparently endeavoring to turn our right and get ttt the rear of our army by way of Warren• ton, which town has been in turn occu pied by cavalry parties of each side: but our Generals are awake to this danger, and will foil the rebel plans.
