DAILY POST. PITTSBURGH. TCIF,SDAY MORNING, OCT. 20, 11363. Whete there le no Low there to no Freedom. The Union a•l it Was, The Constitution as It Is "THREE HVADRED THOIISAIED MORE." A. few weeks ago a rumor came from Washington that the Administration was contemplating another draft, whereupon the Abolition papers and spouters in every direction grew furious, denouncing it as "a Copperhead lie." They swore that the re bellion was on its last legs; it was about caving in, and nothing was required to kill it outright, but an Abolition triumph at the polls in Pennsylvania. While the late political canvass in this State was going on " honest old ABE did not say a word about a scarcity of soldiers in the field ; he had an abundance not only to keep Lac crouching in his mountain fastnesses in Virginia, but thousands to spare for ser vice at the polls in Pennsylvania. But no sooner is the election over, than " bonc st old ABE " issued his proclamation for three hundred thousand volunteers, to serve for three years. If these volunteers do not COMP, a draft, of course, must be resorted to. When these three hundred thousand ad ditional troops are raised, they will make a million and a half of soldiers, upon our side, since the war began. This is a pret ty big draw, for the suppression of a re volt, which our Abolition adventurers as sured us would be put down in sixty days, from its commencement. A million and a half, and for what purpose? Fere it to march them to "the imminent deadly breach," to restore our once happy Union, we would, while sorrowing at the sacrifice of life, rejoice in the glory of the under taking ; bat, alas, such is not now the ob • ject. We are informed by the leaders of the dominant party, that the restoration of the Union, and the supremacy of the constitution, are not now the objects of the war; the subjugation of the people Of the South, not the crushing of those in arms against the Government, and the emancipation of three millions of slaves are the oljects for which we are now con— tending. The issues of the war being changed, we may look forks prolongation. The party in power will accept nothing but Southern destruction ; it is in for war for Southern subjugation, which will necessa rily intensity and prolong hostilities. Three hundro thousand more troops will not be able 18 close the war, nor do those having control of the Government desire that they should. The point with them is to raise an immense army, an army which either in the field or at the polls. Wheth er, under Abolition management, our forces, hereafter, will be victorious in the former, no one can doubt of their trium phant imccesi in the latter. Under the command of BUTLER, ROSSEAI: and SIGEL, and a dozen other carpet warriors, who lately stamped our State for.Conw,—and some of who have an instinctive dread of villainous saltpetre,"—there is no doubt but disasters in the field, will be handsomely set off by achievements at the polls, demonstrating that, if Abolitionism is not able to conquer rebellion in the South, it is quite capable of devising ways and means bow it shall keepitself in pow• er in the North. This Is the task which Abolitionism has now set itself. Its neces sities are far greater than those of the country, and the exultant fanatics lose sight of the latter while contemplating a new lease of power. Let them rejoice ; "it is the bright day that brings forth the adder," and, if we are not blinded en• tirely, we think we perceive the fang which is destined to sting Abolitionism to death. Ia the meatime, " Bleed, bleed Door country Great tyranny, lay thou thy basis sure For gotd , eq? dares nct cheek thee." TistE FIRST WA RD VOTE In the Flrst Ward of this city, at the late election Judge LowatE polled 179 votes, JOHN H. BAILEY, our candidate for District Judge polled 198, and the re mainder of our county ticket received the same average vote, Judge WOODWARD re ceived but 77 votes,or more than a hundred less than his colleague's. This was the re suit of fraud, which will be proved as soon as those having the matter in charge can communicate with the citizens who were defrauded. In reply to some re marks of the Post upon this outrage the Commercial Printing Company whose columns are too heavy for the control of any "one mind"' no matter how "gifted," yesterday remark 6: Tho Poet of Friday, in answer to our chargzs upon it of mendacity in relation to the fairness and quietude of the election; meanly attempts to depreciate the honesty of one of our most enc ceeeful and worthy fruitists and horticuiturists. The Commercial Printing Company are mistaken ; the Post in alluding to the dodge of one cf its association to palm shcit measures upon the lovers of straw berries, did not "meanly attempt" to evade any issue whatever. Our idea in al luding to gouging kale size of strawberry boxes, was to show that the author of that expert performance was pleased with eirn liar smartness regarding ballot-boxes. That the "fruitest and agriculturalist" in question has bead "itecefisfill" we net er questioned ; so were the chaps who finger ed the. ViToonwAnD tickets in the First Ward , but as to the "honesty" of their party, that is a eubject ahont which gen tlemen, of fquat intelligence may properly differ. The horticulturaliet alluded to may have -a most delicate judgment in celery as well as strawberries, but the fact of his eulogizing that imaginary thing —his own -honesty, while the memory of his short measures remains in the comma-, nity shows that he has also a striking op-i preciation of falsehood and andacity. l , The COMs9lercialTrinUng Company unde this guidance, aided by the luminous frue Ices,. is car= taie,to floszrj ji, i :evato like the 'delicious fruits which enrichtheir gardens. -- • HOW CUBTIN WAS ELECTED.

Charles Sumner says slavery is the be ginning, middle and end of this war ; that it is the first and last cause that brought it on. We notice that the Daily Leader, of Toronto, teaches a different philosophy, and that, too, in an able article. We are glad, indeed, to see our affairs so well op preCiated across the line. We must see what our contemporary says, and would recommend his sentiments to the consid eration of certain gentlemen of the Hu manitarian School. It says in the first place : "It is a cardinal principle of interne tional law, that every nation has the ex clusive right to direct and control its own domestic institutions. This right our na tion claims for itself, and is willing to ac• cord to every other State or Sovereignty on the face of the earth." Then it very reasonably argues that at one time slavery existed in many of the British Provinces, but that every "Briton would have spurned every act of interfer ence by Austria or France with that insti tution ; that the people of Great Britain, without the aid or interference of any na. tion, of their own motion, and at their own time and pleasure, abolished the iustitu tion ; also that slavery exists in Brazil, in the Spanish Island of Cuba, arid in the dominions of the Sultan ; but neither Great Britain nor France, nor any other civilized nation, attempted interference. Hence the writer argues that the right to change, modify or regulate any such in stitution is exclusively the province of the nation where it exists. After establishing this principle 01 non interference between separate nationali ties, he says: The original thirteen colonies, at the termination of the revolution or rebellion of 1776, were recognized by the mother -country as 'free and independent. States.' Prior to that time they were distinct prov inces or colonies of Great Britain—as distinct from each other as Nova Scotia is from Australia, or Canada from British Columbia. They had distinct Governors appointed by the Crown:—diatinct colonial legislatures, and distinct colonial lace. It is true that, for the common purpose t,f maintaining the independence of each and all, as against Great Britain, they vented ereted or leagued together, but as the terms, even of that confederation, expres sed it, the sovereignty and independein ut each State or colony was to remain in tact and unimpaired. Hence, when their iudependence Sirea achieved and acknowl edged, the treaty of recognition styled them each and all 'free and independent States,' The sovereignty of Delaware wee as complete as that of New York; and nia or Virginia. In every respect they were as distinct as States as they had been when colonies, and they were, too, not only independent, one of the other, but also of the mother country." Then the writer argues that the present Union and Constitution are the creation of the States, or separate and individual States, and quotes this clause from the Constitution, saying that "All powers conferred upon Congress are especially reserved to the States respectively, or the people thereof ;" meaning by this to say the States as tar as all their m . znicipid rights or privileges are concerned, still re mauled separate and independent indi• vidualities and sovereignties, as much ro as before the adoption of the Constitution. He then tells us that "In 1776, when the Declaration of in depence was made, the institution of sla very existed in all the Colonies—as it did here in Canada. In 1787, when the pres ent Constitution was formed, it existed in all the States except two. It existed in New York and most of the New England States as it did in South Carolina and Georgia. The Constitution itself reeog nized the institution and provided for its representation in the Federal Congress— indeed, this was the only species of prop• erty that was thus provided for by that in strument. The Constitution likewise specially provided for the reclamation of runaway slaves, escaping from one State and going to another. These constitutional provisions, or guarantees, inserted by Madison, Hamilton, Washington and others of that day, are the features which modern philanthropists of the Beecher, Phillips and Greeley .order, have styled 'Covenants with Hell'— 'Stipulations with the Devil,' and therefore tinoperative and void.' " •Of their independent action under the Constitution he says • "Outside the powers thus conferred upon this Federal agency or Government, the States were as distinct and sovereign in their character as they were when rec ognizsd by Great Britain. Each had and continued to have, until recently, full and complete power over all its domestic concerns. Each had a Governor of its own choice, a Legislature of its own, and a judiciary of its own. Each controlled its own finances, made its own laws, and, until recently, had its own army and mili tia. In short, each, for more than half a century, attended to its own business and let others alone. They understobd the rights of their sister States, and respected them. They understood the powers of the Federal Government and restricted it to its business and duties. Slavery existed in the District of Columbia—where the Government was located—for more than half a century. It caused no war. Slave holders—including Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, Tyler, Polk and Taylor—were elected Presidents. That caused no war. Slave States were admitted into the Union. That caused no . war. If the free States, which were in a small minority in the start, have increased in numbers, grown in population, and be come Lich and powerful under the Consti tution, without being disturbed or retarded by the slave States—if all this harmony, peace, happiness and peesperity existed among the States for more than half a century, and during this period slavery existed and was protected, under the Fed eral Consitution, in the States which did not choose to abolish it—howi s it that sla very that caused the war—`this cruel war?' "The answer is easy. It was not slavery that caused the war. It was the improper. unwarranted, unconstitutional and mali cious interference by a portion of the States with the domestic institutions and concerns of their sister State, with which they had no more right to interfere than Spain or France would have to intertere with the affairs of this or any other part of the British Empire. Slavery wss made the - pratext for this interference, because it was supposed . to . be the most available pietext. 'Under: this guise—the pretended hatred -of slavery . and the pretended love of liberty—the-interference could be made more effectual ; and the purpose of selfish and :designing politicians accomplished. "There are men, however, who eat themselves up as paragons of excellence in everything—spiritual as well as tempor al. Men who deny to others the right to think, speak or act for themselves—who denounce others for a difference of opin ion, slander and abuse them for express• ing their thoughts, and would, had they the s ewer, persecute and imprison them for anything like independent action. Such men are regardless of the rights of others, . and. to attain nn cud, will ignore the plainest priuciplc P of justice and right. Everything must yield to their desires— their rule. Unhappily, snch characters are found in every age and nation, and they have been and always will be, nui• sances, if not curses to the generations that produces them. They were the Pharisees of old; the bloody and cruel fanatics of the middle ages, and the heroes of the auto de fe in Spain. The spirit that distinguishes this class is peculiar to no sect or persuasion. It is to be found in all. It prompted Catholics to persecute Protestants, and Protestants to hunt down and destroy Catholics. jtburned witches in New England in old Braes, and, in the same region, destroyed convents and ca thedrals at a later day. It was manifest ie the 'Praise God Barebones' of Crom welt's time, and it is still manifest in the Wendell Peillipses. Horace Greeleys and John Browns of the present day. It would by legislative enactment, Maine liquor laws, and ether public mersures. compel all men to drink water, eat punpkin pies, think alike, epeesk alike, and act alike for `conscience SU If O.' and in the same breath teach Free love-ism, Fourier ism and every other ism thatanimal lust could desire. "Men of the class to which we have nlluded, prompted by this devilish and wicked spirit of intertering with the rights and affairs of others, have caused this mighty and ereel war. Such men as Phillips, and Beecher, and Greeley, have disturbed the peace of the family of States, by denouncing the Union as 'au alliance with the Devil,' and Constitution as 'a covenant with Hell.' Among the first steps to dissolve the Union was a pe Wine fc,r that end presented in the Amer ican Congree , by the MOD.

Very soon after his army was weakened by this taking away et Republican soldirra for political duty in P,nnsylvania yuestion Was General Mrnde by the enemy to make this rrtrea: tininotruirci 7 Answer. tin ; it was hastened and made compul sory by a vigorous advance of the rebel army, now relatively so strong that Gen eral Meade dared not imperil what re mained of his own army by staying and giving battle. These simple, unvarnished facts, stated in the ulainest and dryat form without rb=iorical artifice, prove that the political qici,ry won by the Administration in Pennsylvania has been won at the expanse of a disgraceful retreat by the Army of the Potomac. The cost of this political vic tory to the rational treasury cannot be es timated with arithmetical accuracy for the want of exact 'date ; but it must amount to many millions. The pay, subsistence, and transportation of the soldiers sent into Pennsylvania, in less than a drop in the bucket. The retreat thus made necessary by converting the army into a political machine to carry elections for the gepub lican party, has rendered abortive all that has been done by General Meade since he recrossed the Potomac in pursuit of Gen— eral Lee after the battle of Gettysburg. Nnt only has all the expense of maintain ing the Army of the Potomac in this long interval neen squandered, but (what is still more important) precious time has been wasted at a season of the year which pre cludes the recovery of the ground General Meade has lost until the roads shall have become practicable in the spring of 1864, when the term of service of the three years men first enlisted will be about to expire. The Itepnblican political victory in Penn sylvania, therefore, costs the conntry the greater part of a year's expenses of-the Army of the -Potomac, and postpones sta.,' thing morn tinet defensive operationa l py that army, anti i ti great part of its men are mustered out of service. We presume all sorts of tales will be in-' vented to show that General Meade's re- - treat,was purely volantary, and made for strategic reasons. But no reasons, strate gic or other, Can be given for General Meade's retreat which is not a reproach to the Administration. A. hurried retreat of fifty or sixty miles proves that he was not strong enough, or did not think himself strong enough, to fight the enemy in the region into which he had advanced, If he was not atrong enough originally, why was he permitted to do so &obeli a thing as to advance? If he was strong enough before his army was depleted to carry the Penn sylvania election for the Republicans, military advanbiges have been sacrificed for party objects. If he was originally too weak to fight in so advanced a position and with such long lines to defend, then so much greater is the crime of weakening him still further, and exposing his safety, to accomplish a arty purpose. If Meade could not fight Lee on the Rapidan, and if there is no strong military position in the whole intervening distance from the Rapidan to Bull Run where he dared to give battle, what did he advance to the Rapidan for ? Why was he allowed to in crease the cost of maintaining his army by lengthening the distance from his supplies, and guarding long lines of communication in the enemy's county, if, without fighting. he was to hurry back to the neighborhood of Washington and there stand on the de ' fensive? `He could have hovered around Washington, and have kept on the defen sive without - incurring all this expense, and without the loss of prestige involved in fifty or sixty miles hurried retreat, un der vigorous pursuit by the enemy. The simple truth, obvious to the whole country, is that Meade maintained his ad vanced position until the administration weakened his army to carry a State elec tion, and that he was then compelled to fly before a pursuing foe. We would, if necessary, demonstrate with equal clearness the defeat of Rose crane end hie present critical position are the direct consequence of using soldiers by the administration for accomplishing party objects. The attempt to put Gov ernor Seymour in a false position, as a means of prejudicing the country against the Democratic party, caused forty live regiments, (this is Etenater Wilson'e state ment of the number) to be sent to this _ . city, when half of that number as a re inforeennent to ltoseorans would have saved him from n disastrous defeat. The two or three thousand soldiers the draft produced in this city were not important enough to justify the administration in weakening Our twu most important armies, endangering their safety, and rendering the full campaigns in the West and East worse than a nullity. The draft could have stood still for a while here as well as de;iin other states. But rolitical con siderations prevailed, and tile adalinielra lion has caused important campaigns to misc arry that it might carry elections. the season of deep mud, which will poet. pone active operations for the winter, is close upon us and nest summer the ad rulnistration *ill still - have a great war upon its Lands, as as engine for electing a Republican President.— Worbi, Policy of the French Emperor To ward the Confederate rtates. Pgrit Cerreerundocca I endon Morninz -+.'n The seta ire of the two vessels of war building in England for the Confederate tovernmcut, and Earl Hassell R speech on Ameircan affairs, at Blairgowrie, have additionally drawn the attention cf the French Government to American afr.irs, and may produce a change of policy to ward the Southern States. I will endeav or to place before your readers the con duct of the French Government toward America from the breaking out of the civil Mace. The Emperor and hie advisers considered that it would he beet to watch the conduct of Great Britain, presuming that Fier Majesty's Government 'anew well how to treat with judgment and justice a y international difficulties that might arise, and that France might follow. It resulted, therefore, that when neutrality was decided upon, Franc e adopted the policy of England. Arnie, when your fi.:vernment demanded the restoration of ,he Confederate envoy, France backed you! demands. The Cabinet of the Tuile ries and the Cabinet at London have kept up ti friendly intercourse on American af fairs : and their respective Ministers rat Vaehington and consuls of the two COtle tries in America generally, have acted in harmony and lent mutual support to each other. A period arrived when the Emperor, acting from motives of benevolence, and desiring to serve the manufacturing inter ests of France, made au effort to bring about negotiations between the North and South, in order to suspend cruel and bloody hostilities, which not only deso lated America but brought misery to the door of many thousands of the industrial population of the Old World. The British Government was invited to join France in these peace seeking representations ; but the statesmen of England, thinking that they knew the spirit that prevailed on the other side of the Atlantic between North and South, considered such a pro ceeding, however praiseworthy, utterly useless, and calculated rather to increase irritation than to produce the effect desir ed. The Emperor, nevertheless, was de termined to make ie attempt and all the world knows the result, On this subject both Governments thought alike, and the endeavors of the Emperor were applaud• pd. Mr. Slidell came to Paris as Mr. Mason arrived at London, the Envoy of the Sontbern States. But here as in Lon don the Son.hern representative could not be, and was not, received officially at the Foreign office. Mr. Slidell certainly, on one occasion, wue honored by au interview with the Emperor, and visited occasionally the French Foreign Office ; but on the whole, the Southern Euvoy of Paris hue had much less intercourse with official person. ages than the Southern Envoy sent to Loudon. France, like England, has sold war material both to the North and South, though not to the extent of similar trans actions on your aide of the water. Ihe confederate loan may be held by a few Frenchmen, but not to any amount. The right of belligerents were accorded to Confederate vessels coining into French ports, and the laws of neutrality, as inter preted in England, were countenanced and respected in France. I now come to what I believe to be a subject of more im• portanee. It appears (at least so we read it on this side of the water) that the British Govergment is about to become less indulgent toward the South as regardS the building of vessels intended for war purposes. This fact, coupled with the re tirement of Mr. Mason from London, is regarded here as at least a modification of the policy of the British Government to ward the S ahem States. These facts have attracted considerable attention, because it is no secret that the Confederate States have contracted for vessels of war now building in France. I do not know whether they are steam rams, but 1 learn that they are iron plated ships. We may be pretty sure that Mr. Dayton, who represents the Government, of Wash— ington at Paris, will not lose time after what has taken place in England, drawing the attention of the French Gov ernment to the fact that vessels of war are building in France for the Southern States. It will be seen, therefore, that France has a direct interest in what is now going on in England. It may be a fine distinction which Earl Russell draws about "steam rams." We , know how many war vessels have left England to fight for the Southern cause,_ and done considerable damage on the high seas, although not armed with a ram. However, the vestion asked is : Does giigland intend in future to be less friendly to the Southern cause ? I believe 1 may say that here s. as in .England, the sympathy is for the-South,. and it is only ommon sense to suppoefithat what is going on in Mexico can only make the Emperor and.his Government lean more than ever toward the fortunes of the South, which people would naturally be come the allies of the Government of the slave country. I repeat that what is pas— sing in England will affect the policy of the French Government and the cause of the South to a considerable extent. A White Man Changed Into a Mr. Dickson, physician to her Majesty's Embassy, sends us the following authentic report of the very singular case of a white man turned black, a rumor of which has been locally current for some weeks past, but which, in common with most who heard it, we regarded merely as a canard of the flying lov er' ' class recently started by an imaginative cotemporary. Apart from the mere novelty of the fact narrated, the followinghas a scientific interest which well entitles it to much less ephemeral record than we can give to it: Ovannes, an Armenian, aged 28 years, a native of Geiveh, in the District of Ismid, and a brickruaker by trade. says of himself that he was laid up for the space of two years with a long and serious illness, during which period he was more or less uncon scious. He then Buffered for a twelve month from intermittent fever, assuming at times a Bastian and at other times a quo tidian typo, and which brought on an en• largement of the spleen. This was fol lowed by an attack of juandice, which oc curred about eighteen months ago, and the yellow color of the shin then gradually changed into its present swarthy hue. The dark color first manifested itself in his hands and face, and alarmed him very much, believing it to be an aggravation of his complaint into black jaundice, but he was soon reassured on this score, for he tound that as the skin changed from yel low to bronze, his health sensibly =- improved. He took no medical advice during these long illnesses. Such was the condition of this man when he came under Dr. Fauvel's care, at the Medical School of Ronmharhane. On the first instant I was enabled through Dr. Fauvel's kind ness, to discover• the abode of Ovannes, and thins have an epportanity of making a hasty examination of his case. The em tire surface of his - skin, excepting the palms of his hands and the soles of his vet, is of a very deep bronze hue, such as marks the color of the dark Abyssinian races. He has, moreover, a dusky speck or two on the roof of his month ; and the cintrice of a blister that was raised by Dr. Fauvel on his abdomen, over the re• Rion of the spleen, is of an intense black and shining c,spect, einctly such as would !have been en the person of a negro. This case is evidently one of melanopathia, a rare and singular affection of the skin, affecting its pigmentary structure, and classed in the order marlda of Willa°, end ,ip;dir.-4-4s of Mason Good.— levant Herald, Sepi. 1., 1=1:111MIM For the A Parallel Many incidents in the late election in this State, serve to :mina . us of the sc.mes which are said to have occurred in Secessia, at the time the South went out of the Union.

Every argument woe used to satisfy hie con act •flee as to thepronriety cf voting at all, more ,- I , e , for such a man as Curtin. Notwithstanding the man and his Repub. li• an friend were duly notified that he had no right to vote and it would be challen ged, the Republicans kept close watch for their man and brought him to the polls.
