fl What will you Democrats do if you sue

will you do if you secure a majority in
Congress?" These and similar anxious
ineCrrogatories are daily put to Democrats
14 the terrified leaders of the radical
faCtion.
~CPe can tell these guilty men, who, tot
te ;ring ntider the horrible crime of ruining
their country, and quaking with abject
fef# of punishment for the atrocious sime
uliitions they have committed. We can
toil them what the Democrats will do if
tbb:y succeed. -
!§3efore the war Ithey denounced us as
'lkTnion Savers," and we will prove that
t4se systematic slanderers told no lie that
time. We will richly earn the name of
"Union Savers," as they shall see. The
COMstitution, up to the time that Aboli

t 1
Naffs vigorous and strong—the hope and
tit% glory of the civilized world—it now
1+ bruised, and wounded and bleeding at
their feet—that Constitution we will re

store to strength and dominion. We have
sdlemnly sworn that it shall not be abol
ished—that it shall not be destroyed, and
we will redeem the pledge under and with
in that Constitution, outraged as it has
143 en; we will fight this war to the bitter
end, subdue the rebels armed to overthrow
it and make a lasting Union in spite of
bbth Secessionists and Abolitionists.
iWe will restore the liberty of speech—
all men shall say what they think of pub
-1(c officers and public policy without fear
o a prison.
l'All . persons shall be free to pr int stric
tures on the , acts of government and of
public men, no matter how severe or bit
tbr—even if they shall be as false as were
the-attacks of the radical n rees on Demo-
jratic administrations.
No man shall be arrested without accu
Sation, nor imprisoned without a public
hearing, nor molested without reparation
We cannot receive a better Constitution
than that made by Washington and his
,olupeers. We cannot hope a.o see a bet
ter government than the Union formed
Tyler it. Therefore, we can have
itikher ambition than to re-establish things
•
again as they were before the rebellion, as
far as that can be done. But, as the Dem
li
ciciats have always been the party of poll
,
tical progress, they believe thut calm,
steady and enlightened progress in organic
laws may and ought to be made.

power, to relieve and equalize the burden

l'and yet the rebellion has grown stronger

With Fremont, and Hunter, and Pope,

this war—and you have disgracefully failed.

Yonhave compelled the President, (as he
himself says) against a majority of his cah

THE EMANCIPATION PROC-

THE 10.FFECTS OF IT.
,4-fttor the abolition leaders, who have so
4inracefally blundered in every sugges-`
tion they have made to put the rebellion
down, to still persist is forcing their dis
eased and crazy theories npou the Admin
istration, is still making calculations upon
the forbearance of the people, which, if
carried too tar, may result in very serious
consequences. They began by assuring
the President in his rural home at-Spring
field that there would be no secession; they
then declared that even if there were, a
second John Brown and a few enthusiastic
fellows could put it down; and even if it did
grow serious it would only be for a month
or two, and that the government would be
much stronger and more healthful because
of havine been depleted of its thick and
unwholesonie blood. Alter these and many
other abolition predictions had been falsi
fied by experience, they next suggested the
abolition, of slavery in the District, cer
tain that that act would alarm the rebels
into laying down their arms. That failing,
the next resource was an act of confisca
tion; and that proving ineffective the en
tire radical press, in a spirit of baffled and
disappointed infatuation, howled . fpr an
edict of general emancipation. The ' •
ident hesitated; but Governor Andrew of
Massachusetts said such a proclamation
would raise more willing volunteers in
New England than could be raised by .the
most rigid conscription. The President
still remained incorrigible. Greeley, in
his paper of the 2d of AuguSt last, in re
ply to the President's call for three hun
dred thousand more troops, made the foi
-1 lowing comments, and promises
"There are three times three hundred
thousand born and naturalized Yankees,
who never smelt battle, ready enough,
bounty or no bounty, to die for their coun
try. But they had rather do first, and die
'afterward, if necessary. Start the good
old chorus of universal 'human nater,'
in its own, dear, musical, glorious, burn
ing, self-evident words—start the g old
chorus cf 'Liberty Forever.' and they-will
all join in and march on, knowing, every
blessed mother's son of them, that what is
going to be done now is to save-the coun
try, and not to save its enemies:.
Now, the proclamation so strenuously
demanded by the radicals has been issued,
but we hear of no swarining in New Eng
land for the "Uattle of freedom," nor has
Greeley given notice of the uprising of his
"thres times three hundred thousand," so
confidently promised. The fact is, the
Abolitionists have no comprehension of
the magnitude of the rebellion, nor of the
means required to put it down ; and now,
after sixteen months' sad and bloody ex
perience, they are just as stupid, dogmati
cal and audacious as if they had been suc
cessful in all their suggestions and under
! takings. The President has adopted their
conceptions of how the war should be
prosecuted. and has failed: is he still will;
ing to follow the advice of such dangerous
counselors?
The late proclamation having failed to
arouse the promised enthusiasm in New
York and New England, let us go South
and see the effect it has produced there.
Instead of inducing the rebels to lay down
their arms and return to their allegiance,
it has aroused them to a feeling of furious
desperation unknown among them until
this proclamation was received Rich
mond. %e may, it is true, laugh at their
fury, and at their threats of raising the
,black flag, but-we can not disguise the im•
portant fact that this last edict of the. Pres
ident, like, all the acts of Congress dicta
ted by the radicals, has had merely the 'ef
fect of producing greater unanimity and
determination among the rebels. In the
rebel Senate, on the 2 . .ith ult.. the procla
tnation was up for discussion, and if the
spirit manifested be adopted as a rule of
action hereafter, we leave the reader to in
fer the inconceivable atrocities which will
be perpetrates' upon all who may hereafter
be taken prisoners by the rebels. They
will inflict cruelties heretofore unknown ;
Abolitionists will insisti upon retaliation,
and in a few months the war fur the Mon
and the Constitution upon our side, and
for " Southern independence' on the
other, will degenerate into a mere bloody
and sanguinary contest, having no purpose.
but revenge, slaughter, and extermination
—and all of these will be attributable to
the bloody teachings and instructions of
our radical Abolitionists. But read the
following.:
In the rebel Senate on the 2Alt of Sr
tember, Mr. Semmes, of Louisiana, sub
mitted the following joint resolution :
Resolced, by the Congress of Atte Con
federate States, That the proclamation of
Abraham Lincoln, President of the United
States of America, issued at the city of
Washington, in the year 1862, wherein he
declares "that.on the first day of.lanuary,
1863, alt persons held as slaves within any
State or designated parts of a.State,where
of the people shell be in rebellion against
the United States, shall be henceforth and
forever free" is leveled against the citi
zens
~ of the Confederate States, and as
such is a gross violation of the 'usages of
civilized warfare, an outrage on the rights
offirivate property, and an invitation to
an atrocious servile war, and, therefore,
should be held up to the execration of
mankind, and counteracted by such severe
retaliatory measures as in the judgment
of the President may ho best calculated to
secure its withdrawal or arrest its execu
tion.
Mr. Clark, of Missouri, moved that the
resolution be referred to the Committee
of Foreign Affairs. He was in favor'of
declaring every citizen of the Southern
Confederacy a soldier, authorized to put
to death every man caught oh our soil in
arms against the government.
Mr. Henry, of Tennessee;Naid the reso
lution did not go far enough. He favored
the passage of a law providing that upon
any attempt being made to execute the
proclamation of Abraham Lincoln we im
mediately hoist the "black flag," andloiro
claim a war of extermination ageing' all
invaders of our soil.
M. Phelan, of Mississippi, said that he
had always been in favor of conducting the
war lender the "black flag." If that flag
had been raised at Manassas a year ago
the war would now have been ended.
Mr. Yancey, of Alabama, moved that
the pending resolution, together with the
resolutions submitted by him some time
since, relative to retaliation, Atc , be re
ferred to a select committee of three, and
be made the special order for Wednesday
next. .
Mr. Burnett, of. Kentucky.. moved that

POSTAGE STAMPS
The Postoffice Department has commit
ted another grievous blunder in repudiat
ing "soiled" postage stamps. To permit
a postoffice clerk to be the judge of the
value of stamps, and return the letter, or
send it to the Dead Letter Office, js to put
the public at the mercy of the whims of
irresponsible parties. As well may the
overnment repudiate its bonds when
soiled or defaced. How long will three
cents stamps remain clean in Pittsburgh?
The poor, begrimed mechanic, who has fin
gered a stamp in mailing a letter, perhaps
to his son in the army, willfind, after some
month, its return from the Dead Letter
Office, with "six cents", extra charged
upon it,l)ecause the "statilii" was soiled.
The Not 4 York Times, in speaking of this
matter, says:
"'COL. does the department find any bet
ter excuse for its repudiation in the plea
that it has repeatedly, by special letters
and official announcement, declared its
opposition to the sale and use of postage
for a currency.' Such use soils the stamps
undoubtedly ; but it does not destroy the
obligation to pay them. Moreover, Con
gress expressly authorized this use of
them, and the opposition' of the depart
mettit does not in the slightest degree in
talldate the law passed for that purpose.
Here is the section of that law under which
they have been put in circulation:
"'lie it enacted by the Senate and House
Ilepresentatives of, the. U . nited States of
America in Congress assembled, That the
Secretary of the Treasury be and he is
hereby directed to furnish to the Assistant
Treasurers and such designated deposi
taries of the United States as may be by
him selected, in such sums as he may deem
expedient, the postage and other stamps
of the United States, to be exchanged by
them, on application, for United States
notes; and - from and after the first dap of
August next, such stamps shall be receiv
able in payment of all dues to the United
States less than five dollars, and shall be
received in exchange for United States
notes when presented to any Assistant
Treasurer or any designated depositary
selected as aforesaid, in sums not leas than
five dollars.'
" Whatever is receivable for dues to the
United States will very speedily enter into
the general ifirculation of the country;
and the absolute necessity of having some
substitute for small change compelled the
use of these stamps, in spite of the oppo
sition of the Postoffice Department.
The Government must in some way of
other protect the community from •the
effect of this sweeping order of repudia
tion issued by the Postoffice jlepartruent
The•public cannot be expected to tolerate
so flagrant a wrong."

accumulations of •years, and I shall not
I am for the supremacy of the Govein

for the instant relief of the down-trodden,
persecuted Union men of the South, whose
representatives ate now knocking at the
door of the Government, demanding help
for those who still cling to the old flag.
In their name I demand that this war shall
never cease—that the whisper of 'peaCe

in protecting folds above their heads.
To my view, this - is a long plotted and

Major General Dix
The Albany Journal says: "It seems
due to Gen. Dix., who was Voted for in
the Union (N. Y.) State Convention, that,
having ventured to suggest his name, we
should do him the justice to say that it was
without his consent; and that he had
written a letter to a Democratic friend in
New York, assigning reasons, which, in
his judgment, forbid his. acceptance of
'any civil office when the service of every
citizen who can be spared from home is
needed in the field.'"
An Easy Plan
A simple arrangement has been made
to collect the income tax from persons in
the government employ. On all monthly
salaries, due henceforth, a tax of three per
cent on the excess above fifty dollars per
month since July last is deducted by the
disbursing agent. This deduction is made
in compliance with the provisions of the
law which axes a tax of three per cent. on
the excess over POO per annum paid to
goverement employees.—Phtlad. .Gazette.
Is the Prediction to be Verified?
Hon. Anson V. Burlingame preth4ed
in 1856 that the Abolitionists, if they ever
fell into the belief that Heaven and the
Scriptures were against them, as well as
the Constitution, would have "an anti
slavery-Constitution, an anti-slavery Bible
and an anti-slavery-God I" Is the predic
tion about to be fulfilled? Is the emanci
patiou of the negro of such paramount
importance that to accomplishit we should
turn from the God, the Bible and the Con
stitution of our fathers? Whatever impi

The Monitor
As the fact has been stated in a Balti
more paper that the "Monitor" gunboat
left. Hampton Roads for this place on
Monday last, there can be no harm in
saying that she has arrived at the navy
yard wharf, where she is an object of no
little interest just now. She was towed
up the river some distance by the tug Res
cue, but steamed alone up the Eastern
Branch. On the news of her arrival con
siderable stir was made by the employees
of the yard, large numbers of them leaving
their work to take a look at the "cheese
box." The object of her coming up is
that a few slight repairs may be made.
She still bears the marks of her Conflict
with the Merrimac—dents being in her
sides, but nowhere is she pierced. She
came up alongside thg wharf without diffi
culty.— Washington Star.
Profanity the Army
The following order has keen issued by
General Howard for the suppression of
profaiii swearing iu his division:
"The General commanding this divis
ion has noticed with extreme pain, on the
part of officers and men, the cjnstant use
of very profane oaths. He need not re
mind any thinking man of the vulgarity
and meanness of this practice, nor speak
of it as a positive violation of God's law,
but will simply appeal to the eibd sense
and better feelings of the members of
his command, and urge them, by all they

whose protection they need. By order
of General 0. 0. Howard.
Insurance Taxes.
The insurat ce companies of Hartford,
Conn.,' have agreed to assume the war
tax of one per cent. recently levied by
Congress on all premiums received, and
also the tax of three per cent. upon all
dividends made by insurance companies.
There was also a tax of twenty-five cents
made upon all policies and every renewal
of a policy issued, and this the companies
of Hartford have agreed shall be paid by
the parties insured. Orders conformable
to the above have been issued by all the
city companies to their agents.

General MePherion reached Corinth r
with his command, yesterday.
General Hosecrans pursued the retreat
ing enemy this morning, and should they
