GOOD PEELIN' G GEO WING UP If the leaders of the rebellion and the leaders of Abolitionism were slaughtered, instead of their innocent victims, who have gone to their long homes, there would be no trouble, whatever, in restor ing peace throughout the entire country.- The people of both sections desire peace, and are longing for it without more blood and slaughter. But Jeff Davis and his immediate followers are determined on end, bicause pehcifwbnld . /bathe end of bun and' them*- Our lead ing Abolitionists also insist on war, be cause peace just now would leave slavery comparatively secure. This they will never assent to; their only object in the war is the destruction of slavery, and as long as it remains we shall hear from such papers as the Gazette, not a word of wel come to the States returning to their alle giance, but its battle cry of -‘once more unto the breach dear friends once more.” But it is not possible that these bloody fanatics will be able to prolong hostilities merely for the destruction of slavery ; the white millions of the North will not con sent to carry on an interminable war and sacrifice themselves,.merely to oblige Ab olitiomets in their experiments of philan thropy and negro equality. There is now a fine feeling growing np in all part 3 of the seceded States in favor of the old Union, and it is to be hoped that wise statesmanship, not partisan jugglery, will encourage, by all means, these hopeful signs of re-nnion. Every appearance of imposing conditions should be scrupu lously avoided, except the one which they are willing to assnme—fidelity to the Con stitntion of the United States. A cotem porary remarks that “the American peo ple are especially tenacious in repelling ail iestraints that do not necessarily pro ceed from constitutional law, and will not give obedience, even to these, nnle nn they j accord with their reaaon and conscience. We should be careful, then, not to impose burdens on the Southern people which we ourselves would not touch with our little fiDger. Let us have faith in our national destiny and events, and freely welcome back to the Union and the Halls of Con gress, all who may be willing to reßome their obligations to the Constitution as it ia aud liie Union aa it was.” In this work of reconstruction we see that Tennessee is movirg. I n response to inquiries upon the subject, the Nashville Union is “ officially authorized ” to state that Gov. Johnson purposes issuing writs of election for a Legislature at the very ear liest practicable day; that is, when the progress of our military operations is such that loyal citizens can go to the polls in safety. The Union adds: “The delay in lSßuing writs of election hitherto has been, as all intelligent observers must have seen,' not a matter rf choice, but of inexorable and painful necessity. Practically, it has been impossible to hold Union mass meet ings-of the people, or go through the form of an election in one-fifth of the counties of Tennessee. We doubt whether any of those who have been most urgent for hold ing elections and restoring civil govern ment, would at any time within the past twelve months have run the risk of making speeches for the Union and against the rebel Government at any precinct ten miles from a Federal encampment.” THE KJ3HTTJCKY ELECTION! Because objection has been made by the Democratic press to Burnside’s pro claiming martial law in Kentucky, upon the eve of her late election, the sapient Abolitionist? conclude that our complaints are suggested by partisan considerations. Ttsere is no truth in this, because the Democracy in Kentucky suffered no de feat at her late election. Both parties there claim to be Democratic; the old line men were led by Wiokhff and their oppo nents by Bramlette, the new organisation having been inaugurated by such Demo crats as James-Guthrie, President Pierce’s Secretary of the Treasury, and such old Whigs aa the data John J. Crittenden. We yesterday published Brutus )1 Clay’s letter announcing himself a candidate for Congress; in it he took the gronnd oceu pied by every Union Democrat in the country. The Louisville Journal, which support ed with zeal Mr- Bramlette, says that, “in the kite .canvass there was.not a solitary paper in the State but earnestly opposed the. administration."

General Stuart’s Dinner Eaten by General Buford. A correspondent of the Philadelphia - Press, writing from Brandy Station, Ya., > Bth instant, eays : “Some people have contended that Stuart no longer had command of the reb el cavalry, but that Fitahugh Lee was the chief of that branch of the army. Wh'et.h er this be so or not, as I before stated, Stuart fought Buford last Saturday, for Buford ate his dinner in a cosy little house nestled among pines, cedars aod jssamine, about one and a half miles from Cul pepper, where General Stuart and Etufl were going to dine.

The Ninth corps, un der Major General Parke, is at Snyder’s Bluff, but. will return to report to General Burnside in Ketaeky or 'Tennessee. At the same place are two divisions of the Sixteenth corps, under Gen. Washburn. From the position of these two forces it is quite probable that another campaign is not contemplated in the west for several weeks. Still Gen. Grant is not the man to have hie plans interpreted from the disposition ot his army, and before this reaches yon the greatest general of the age may have commenced n scheme, tko sue cess of which will astonish our Ejropem, Irisnde, who have been so ready to fine fault with ail our commanders.’ Deserters Flocking to Generai Meade's Lines A correspondent ol the Bomou yVorri ler, with the Army of ihe Polo mac writes : “ Within the last three days some twen ty deserters have come within onr lines al this place, including an orderly sergeant from a Louisiana regiment, who says he resides within forty miles of New Orleans, and is desirous of returning to his home. He reports that large numbers of Louisi aniaus are waiting for a favorable oppor tuuity to desert, being anxious to return to their homes. My informant also says that the news of the fall of Vicksburg and Port Hudson, and the opening of the Mis sissippi, has greatly disheartened the Mis sissippi and Louisiana troops. " This feeling of discontent ami despon dency, he asserts, is not confined to par ticular state regiments, but all save the Texans are discouraged at the present aspect of affairs -in the so-called Confed eracy. Quite a number have been placed under arrest and confined in the guard house for uttering language pejudictal to the interest and safely of the Soulh. The remainder of the deserters who have been brought within our lines are con scripts from this state. One mpu infurnu-d me that he was a native of Virginia, and at the breaking out ot the reoelhon he strongly opposed it, but his neighbors be gan to suspect him of infidelity and he was called a traitor.

It has been discovered that extensive frauds have been perpetrated upon the Government in Philadelphia and else where, by men pretending to be army officers, and presenting forged pay rolls at the offices of different paymasters. The Philadelphia Ledger Bays, one individual, representing himself as a Major in the v-,1- nnteer service, is alleged to have obtained over seven hundred dollars Irom a pay master in that city, and a considerable sum from a paymaster in Harrisburg, and one .in Baltimore and New Yorlr, aiid measures were taken to have the person arrested, which was done. It is known that othera have been committing similar frauds, and that the Government has been swindled out of many thonsande ot dol lars in that way. Besides the forged pav roll a fictitious leave ol absence is pre"- Bented by the swindler. United States Ship Hartford. The New Orleans Era says that Ad miral Farragut, at present suffering from a slight illness, has been allowed a short respite and is ooming North. Commodore Henry W. Mcrris, of the Pensacola, ac companies the admiral, also on a brief eave of absence. They are to come in the noble old ship Hartford. From the time the Hartford crossed the bar to attack Forts Jackson and St. Philip, and the rebel fleet, on the morning of the 26th of April, 1862, until the present time, she nas taken part in ten engagements, and baa been struck two hundred and three times.

The Value of Hebei Money. Money, estimated by the gold standard, is now worth about eight cents on the dol tar. The rebels have fired a standard, however, by which they profess to regulate the value of their money. That standard is wheat. The price of this cereal is fired by the rebel government at five dol lars per bushel. With this, however, tunny of the farmers are dissatisfied, and assert thbt five dollars in currency is, in rc-Miiy, itas than five cenla. 100 U.chmood Sentinel in this connec non. hays: '■ i'hrro is a fact to which we think it proper to call the attention of the fair iniLOeu, and eveu the insatiably them stives.

How to Manage the Draft. The Journal of Commerce suggests that the draft should be made with two wheels instead of one, and every name shonld be drawn from one wheel, while blanks and prizes are drawn from the other. This is the only fair method. To draw the num ber required out of a wheel, and leave the remaining names lying untouched affords no evidence to the pnblic that names are not repeatedly in ihe rolls, or that the rolls themselves are fairly made up. It is much more satisfactory to draw every name and against each name draw a blank or a couscriptiou ticket. Foresight of Gen. Banira When Geu.

The 48th and 53d regiments of State militia made a parade at Reading lately, under command of General Sigel. They were afterwards reviewed by the general in person. A correspondent of the St. Lonia 1U publican gives the names of no less than thirty-four steamerß which have been de stroyed on the Yuzoo river and its tribu taries by the rebels, during the last few months, to prevent their falling into our hands. Moßt of them had been converted into gunboats. Among them was the for mer Star ot the West. She was used by the Confederates as a transport, and yas sunk in the iallahatohie river, near Fort Pem berton, to obstruct the channel daring the Yazoo Pass expedition. An Atlanta (Ga.) paper says that a '‘big raid from Roseorans is at Whiteside,” and expresses ths opinion that, Gen. Rosecrans is moving upon Selma.
