DAI PITTSBURGH t- MONDAY, JANUARY 1864. THE PRESIDER(' Y . . It is said that Secretary ;:4.wAitii has secured the services of Chevalier Wyson. to engineer the re-nomination of Presi• dent LINCOLN. He is a skillful and dex trona fellow, besides being a'pocket lock and key of villainous secrets." He ob tamed a copy of the President's second message, for publicadon in the Ilerald, before it-waeread in Congress. He knows all about court intrigue; has been of great assistance to Mrs. LaNcoLs in ar ranging for receptions, parties and hops ; and is, withal, a most agreeable and au dacious person. His superior knowledge of ' aristocratic customs in France and England, makes him quite a lion among the snobs of Washington. Such persons as FORNEY are bat very bad imitations of the dazzling WYEOFF. When NAPOLEON Lecame Preeidant of the French Republic, WTKOFF, then in England, wassent by Lord PALM ERTSON to Frandii, to aaahre him of England's high consideration. He, according to his own published account of hie d plurnacy with the French President managed things to the entire satisfacton of his English pa" iron. With such a genius to give directions to the manipulations of the Abolitionists for a continuance.of the LiNcoLs dynes , y, success is sure to crown the enterprise. We may, therefore, conclude that LIN cots, Simian and WYHOFF are masters of the situation, and against their com bined genius the gallant and buoyant. Democracy will have to contend. Our soul's in arms and eager for the encounter. RESTORATION OF THINGS AS T II ET uppn this teat the Dispatch, of Satar day, does us the honor to remark as fol lows: "Our neighbor of the Post has devoted conaiderable time and ability, of late, to a demonstration of the truth of the asser tion that "the Abolitionists are no longer ready to consent to a restoration of things as they were." It is by no means necessary to labor so persistently in prod of the charge, since it has never been denied, nor will its constant repetition cast discredit upon those who acknowledge such views. If none bat "Abolitionists" are unwilling to favor the return of the old order of things, then abolitionism must be conceded to embrace at least nine tenths of the people of the North. Indeed, we are very much inclined to doubt whether the "conservatism" of our neighbor, even, would stretch so far as to embrace the actual advocacy of a restore tion of the condition of affairs which mar • ked the beginning of April, 1861, or even the closed December, in the preceding year. The Dispatch, like the generality of the Radical press, is so much occupied in the consideration of the "one idea," that it cannot, or will not, perceive any other in the discussion of questions arising out of 'he rebellion. When we insist upon the the Union and the Consti- , heated aiki!atore, at once, Divrs back in the Senate of the United States, and FLOYD, (who is deed ) back in the War Department." The restoration of things as they were, prior to the break ing out of the rebellion, every child knows to be an impossibility, and our Abolition contemporaries need expend no farther time in proving it. What we want re stored is oar lost form of Government, and it can be done if even both JEFi DAVIS and ABRAHAM LINCOTN, were with , FLOYD now lying as in cold obstruction... What we htive complained of is that the Abolitionists have converted the war, commenced for the restoration of the Union, into one for emancipation; and we farther complain that they are new pr)longing hostilities, in order that the Southern people may be utterly subjugated or exterminated, and their lands given over to Abolition adventurers and manu mitted slaves. The vote in the House of Representetives, the other day, upon the restoraton resolutions of Mr. DAwsone, demonstrate that the Radical majority of that branch of Congress, are determined that no peace shall bless this country, so long as there is a dollar to be made out of hostilities, or a slave to be set free. The Abolitionists have degenerated contest for national unity, into one of vengeance against an unoffanding and oppressed people. The masses of the South who are born down under the iron heel of remorseless despotism, and who would, upon almost any terms, gladly re tarn to their allegiance, are treated by our Administration with as much vigor as are the leading rebels, themselves. It is true that the President offers to let themback into the Union, bat only upon terms so humiliating; that none except the meanest panderer or the most sneak ing adventurer can accept. The terms offered by the President will be acceptible to some parasites who will eagerly assent to them, in the hope of preying upon the confiscated lands of their neighbor. In this titey will be encouraged by our lead• ing who expect the redeemed Statesi%broone , tenth of each," to keep them in pliwer in the general Govern ment. Then, indeed, will have vanished the last hope of the restoration of our late form of Government. Military des potism, now struggling for supremacy, I I will then be firmly established upon the ruins of our Republican system. We may have elections, bat they will he mere delusions and mockeries,no more in - dicative of the popular will than wera those ch were:last ytlar controlled by Pro- 1 r:.3 Marshals and their willing bayonet s . I The Pispatch, just now, like others of its extreme political persuasion, lost in the I consideration of the slavery question, 1 does not perhaps appreciate those en croaohments as it should; but the time may arrive, and that too speedily, when a common rain may enable as all to see things as they are. Than, the time will have departed for discussion of the "res toration of things as they were." It may be that the change w ill, bring about the long looked for destruction of slavery in the South,and• it may be the establishment of a worstkortler of things among the people of the North. Let us hope for the best, however, and upon all occasions—with Abolition permipsiotk—exersise the largest liberty, in a decorous way, in the consid eration attd,diacassion:of the - sato and de• signs of our public servants, be they who ' ll they 431 8 Y, and ,'never - yield our tights to the tyrant "necessity" without ome resistance at least. General Scott on the War. Correspondanoe of the Boston Journal. NEW YORK, January 12, 1864. General Scott kept open house on New Year's. He has broken np house•keeping and has rooms at Delmonico's. In the elegant mansion of Moses H. Grinnel, cornet of Fifth-avenue and Fourteenth street, with several spacious dwelAng houses added to it, Delmoniee has his up town ,atablisbment, on a suit of parlors on the lower floor, furnished in a style suited to his rank, General Scott has his headquarters. His rooms are such as military gentlemen of position and fortune would desire. They are ornamented with Dusts, statues, maps, paintings and im• elements of war. I had an interview with him a short time since, ot about an hour's duration. He drd'uot regard the future prospects as very bright. Indeed, he said he did not See one bright spot in oar national horizon. One thing he thought very re• markable—no war of any magnitude had ever been prosecuted any where before this one, without throwing to the surface men of marked military genius and marked public virtue. But this war has been fruitful of no such results so far. Those who had iuspired a momentary confidence, Lad disappointed the public expectation. We have had some splendid fighting, but with no marked results. Our Generals seem to have no ability to reap the fruits of well fought battles. To tight the enemy, to gian a decisive victory, and then let him escape with his men, guns and baggage, is simply to make the war endless. He considered the President's amnesty proclamation as impracticable, in conse queues of the large number of persons ex empted from hope of pardon. These would be made desperate and fight to the last. If the large number exempted from pardon here in the hands of the President today, and under lock and key, so that he could, if he would, march them out to death, he could not execute that large number. Humanity and civilization would revolt at it. In the judgment of General Scott it would be better to offer pardon to the great mass of the rebels and reserve severe punishment for the leaders only. More than a year ago General Scott sup posed that Corinth and Richmond would both be taken, and taken at once. Ile not only expected it, but have never Been any explanation or reason why it was not done. Confident of that result he sent the President a plan for the settlement of the difficulty, North and South. A basis for the reconstruction of the Union was sent in. It was made the subject of one or more Cabinet meetings, and Gene ral Scott is confident that when the war is over, the plan will form substantially the basis of a final settlement. Of Gen. McCle,lan's military career General Scott declines to speak—first, because he recommended him for the po sition of Commander•in•cbief, and be cause a court martial is to be called, and as he may be one of the judges, he does not wish to prfjudge the case. I could not understand whether General McClel lan desired the court martial, or whether it was to be ordered by the Government. Ile was clearly disappointed that Rich moud was not taken, but whether it was the fault of General McClellan, General McDowell, or the interference ot th Government, General Scott declined give an opinion. Of Generals Burnside, Hockrr and other commanders of that stamp, he re garded them as loyal men, brave men, good shin... commanders, but wholly incompeti.i.nt pt,,,, 0r ex. ocuto nry Of Oenera • - himself as surprised and delighted. He said he knew General Grant in the war with Mexico, where he was Lieutenant, and had no opportunity to distinguish himself. So far General Grant had proved himself the hero of the war— fighting great battles with consummate skill and securing the results. And so far he seemed to be the only General that knew how to do it. While he does not think this war will be a seven years' war, yet neither this year nor the next, in his opinion, will see its end. Much hard fighting is to be done before the rebellion will cease. Great and gravo questions of anxiety and trouble will arise and ran on, and vex the nation beyond the lifetime of this generation. The Reign of Terror Under the Administration of the Old Fede ral Party. In the days of the elder Adams, when Federalism had control of the Govern• merit, acts of despotism were committed having some resemblance to those who which distinguished the Administration cf Abraham Lincoln. One case will illustrate the character of many others which occur red during the reign of terror under Fed eralism. A German Democratic paper ( The Adler) was published at Reading, Pennsylvania, by Henry Snyder. That paper was sup• pressed, and Mr. Snyder arrested by or der of President Adams, for some criti cisms on hie Administration. This act of tyranny arroused at once the Democratic spirit of that county, and a small band headed by John Fries and John held a meeting and passed resolutions dis- approving of the Federal Administration and the arbitrary arrest of Snyder, and the suppression of hts paper, and assert ing their constitutional rights to the free dom of speech and of the press. Government soldiers were at once for warded from Philadelphia, then the seat of the Federal Government, to arrest Fries and his compatriots. Fries and eight other Democrats were arrested, forced to Easton, Pa-, and there locked up in a dark cellar, knee deep in water and mud, forty eight hours, and then, under a strong guard of Federal soldiers, taken to Phil adelphia and imprisoned. There they re ceived a mock trial—the Judge of the Court being a subservient tool of the Ad ministration, and the jury backed by the Federal Marshal. Fries was condemned to be hung, and the others sentenced to the penitentiary, some for one, some for five, and some for nine years. at before Fries was hung, Jefferson was elected President, whose first-official act was to pardon Fries and his fellow-victim s of Federal persecu tion and tyranny. When Fries and his fellow Democrats were released from their. long confine. meat, the people met a large mass meeting before the jail, and constructed a platform on which they carried Fries, high above their heads, through the streets of Philadelphia, amid the shoats and huz zas of thousands of Democratic freemen. Thus ended the misrule and the tyranny of the Federalists, as well as the reign of terror they created. The present Republicans are the legiti mate political deceudants of the Federal ot 1799 and 1600. There is no dffer ence between the views of the two. The principles of the I , 'ederaliste led them to distrust the people, and desire a strong central gevernment. The Federalists hsal their reign of terror, suppressing newspa pers, and arresting their proprietors and editors, incarcerating and otherwise punishing citizens for their political opinions. The Republicans are doing the same thing, only on a more extended scale. Dospotic power, to rule and control the people, lies at the foundation of their political creed ; and alt they want is the opportunity to create a monarchy, a n d en . slave the people.—Cin.

THE PITTSBURGH POST: MONDAY MORNING, JAINTTT A recent number of . the Boston 'Dart , / .er gives the figures at the dividends declared by some of the New England Shoddy Mille. and they are indeed astound ing. No wonder, wben the parties in terested in them count up their Flittering beeps of coin, that they favor such mega urea as will prolong the war. The war I has proved a golden harvest, and they I would look upou any policy which should have a tendency to abridge its duration as a postive disaster to them, so tar as their pecuniary interests are concerned. ft matters not to them that the war brings suffering exposure, wounds, sickness and death to our brave soldiers no matter that it cuts down one, now another of the props and stays of many a family ; no mat ter that it brings want to crouch upon a thousand of happy and prosperous hearthstones; no matter for all this, the rich shoddy manufacturers and wealthy contractors of New England are sleek and fat, and their purses manifest a most ple thoric condition. The war is a "good thing" for them, and must be kept going for years it is only the great body of the people, the cannaille, as these lordly I manufacturers esteem them, who suffer, land surely no one cares for the sufferings lot such as these, or would for a moment think of bringing them to an end, if by so doing the '•nabobs" would be stopped from their glorious harvest of riches. Among the companies in New England which are now coining money, the Trar eller mentions the following, first premis ing that live of them made no dividends in 183 s ; two of them had only made one dividend before the war; one had just wound up, but was quickly resuscitated when the war started ; and another (the York) had been "under a cloud for three and a half years, but had just rallied at the beginning of the rebellion, so as to make a modest semi-annual dividend of three per cent. They have, since 186:2 declared profits as follows, being for the last six years operations, thus making good old deficiencies and these lordly dividends over and above, namely; Stark, 30 per cent; Great Falls, 44; Merrimac, 57; Hamilton, Ge ; Otis, 3e Anioskeag, 04; Boston tin \‘'lltham,l67 ; Appleton, 09; Laconia, 7 9 , Middlesex, 103 : Salisbury, 102 i ; York, 126: Pepperell, 141. Of this amount, not less than 1256 per cen'. have been paid in extras, as follows Ap pleton, Hamilton, Amoekeag, 10 per cent. each ; Boston, ..t.O do.; Laconia, 40 ; Mid• dimes, 48; (6, 10, :20, 1 0;;York, 70,(15, 10, 10,-10, 25 ;) while the Pepperell has collected in the opening of the present year its accumulation profits into one great avalanche of payment-50 per cent. All these extras, with the exception of the first from the York, have been declared and paid since 1e8:2 began. In addition to these, twenty-three other manufacturing companies, almost exclu sively of cotton aad woolen fabrics, have declared dividends for the profits of the past six months, amounting to the snug tittle sum of $1,773,200. Of course, with such facts before them, every one can un derstand why the shoddy contractors of New England dread the idea of a return of peace. War brings the "grist of their mill," which peace would put a speedy stop to; and hence they set their faces against any such unwholesome change as Viet which would substitute peace for war, and put an end to the harvest of "shod dy." All hail, New England: thrice hail al/ potent Shoddy I THE BLACK HOLE OF CALCUII TA OUTDONE. Horrible Brutality in a Federal Pris on in New York—llte New York Park Barraoks. The abominations of tilt@ ignited States Barracks, in New York, are made the subject of a Special Committee to the Common Council, from which we take a passage, showing how our soldiers are treated: Immediately bellied this room a part is partigoned off, which the Doctor very properly denominated the "pen." This "pen" is 15 feet wide, 20 feet long, 8 feet high to the peak, and 8 feet to the eaves, boarded up on three sides tightly; the fourth, which faces in the barracks, di— rectly opposite an immense stove, which is heated to a red heat, is inclosed by slats, -I inches wide, and placed 3 inches apart. In this 15x:20 there is not a bench or a stick of wood, or any thing to sit on, not even a post to lean against, except the four perpendicular sides of the room. There is not even straw to cover the floor, as a bog or horse would have, but the ac cumulated filth of many months is the only thing that separates the inmates from the naked floor. In this "pen" are confined at the present time sixty-one men, and the of. ficer iu charge informed me that he had at one time as many as seventy-seven, Some of the men have been there from three to four mouths. 'I hey are thus im— prisoned for milliary offences, breach of discipline, and desertion, all huddled in this common "pen," sick and well to— gether. A guard is placed over them to prevent escape, and another guard is in waiting to accompany them to the water; closet in the Park, one at a time; the other seventy six must wait their proper turn, no matter how pressing the necessity from dysentery, diarrhea, or other cause, and, of course, the result of such bar barity can be better imagined than de scribed. t These men are fed through bare, taking ) the meat and bread in their fingers, no knives or forks being allowed. Spoons are allowed once a day, when they have soup. No blankets are allowed them unless they have one themselves when placed there, but few of them are thus fortunate; they have therefore to lie upon the naked floor with the exception of filth and mud before referred to. The Doctor informed me that by laying them upon their sides spoon fashion, and by close packing, putting the heads of one row upon the bodies of the row in front, he could pack forty-five in the pen; the rest are now taken out and chained to trees until these forty-five have had some deep, and then they were transferred. The only mode of cleaning the apart. meut was by running in Croton water, from a hose through the slats, which forced the bones, pork-skins, potato-skins, Sc Jto the back and corner of the room, and as it is nearly level they remain there, and in some places are near an inch or two in depth. The men are covered with lice and ver miu, and the stench was almost unbear able Dr. Blauvelt, who was in attendance, and who is a kind hearted, honest, faith lull man, informed me that he had repeat edly reported the nuisance as graphically 113 poso-ible to his superior officers, (ieu• erul Hays an.l tieni-ral Dix, and deman redrew, hat up to the l rei,ei.t time with,ut acv 1. 1 ) ,I hog I , lace a tow clay, ,ance, anti can, there ore, re;;,ry to the my de This pest Lole to an ‘‘ii:rags , or.

Quigley, -.- Thrilling Adventure on the Plains • The following account of an adventure a the recent great snow storm on the plains is given in a private letter from Capt.,lames U. Dodge of Milwaukee: FORT LARNED, KANSAS, Da. 4, 1864. 0,1 Saturday morning, November 28, we started from Fort Lyon to Fort Lam ed, expecting to make the trip (the die lance being 240 miles in i the usual time of four and a half days. Our party DUN bored Fhe first day we came 45 miles: at night wade oar bed on the bare ground, and in the morning found six or eight inches of snow covering us and the wind blowing re.,fnit e . wu it eau only blow across the u“id seven in - 1 . 1 es. were only able to thaw out our provnnolih, not even making an effort to cook any- It mg, for on the whole route they are no habitations. Until Saturday morning, we were obliged every little way to shovel the stage out of the snow banks; and finally, when we were about fifty-two mike from Fort Lamed, we gave up the idea of proceeding any further that way. Hearing that there was a small Indian camp not far from where we were em barked, I concluded to leave the stage and go on to find it and get some dried buffalo meat, for our supplies were ex hausted, as we had only laid in a store for a five-day trip. The Indian camp, how ever, proved to be further off than we thought, for I walked fifteen miles, with the snow up to my knees nearly all the way, before the huts crime' in sight. When within a mile or thereabouts of them, one of the drivers overtook me and reported that the mules had given out entirely, and he had started to go to the tort for help. The camp being close by, I told him to go on and get something to eat, and 1 would be along. I found him there with hie hands and feet badly frozen, so I told nun to stay there and I would go to the fort myself, 35 miles. I started at 2 o'clock p. m. The mule carried me until sundown, and would not go any forth er. I had with us fortunately, a Buffalo robe; EU taking the saddle for my pillow, and tacking the robe close about me, laid down to try and keeb awake till morning. I was then twenty seven miles from the port and the cold sointensethatone of the mules had frozen to death the night before. When morning broke I was thankful to the kind Providence which kept me from all harm. I had nothing to eat, bat saddled the mule, which had not strayed more than six rods away, soli started again. The poor animal, however, would not carry me more than three miles and laid down. Without hesitating one instant I stripped him, piled the saddle and robe together, and in less than five minutes was wading through the snow up to my knees. I knew, probably, I would have to be.ont another night, but there was no such thing as turning back, for there were left behind six human beings whose lives depended upon my exertions. When within ten miles of the fort I had to cross a stream and leave the Arkansas river striking across a rolling prarie. The snow was here from one to three tilled, feet deep, and the track entirely had been over the road but once ex cept in a covered stage, and had no par ticular idea of the direction. I only knew that the fort was on a creek with trees growing along it, and the best that I hoped for was to reach the trees that night. I kept two objects in view so as to make a straight line. 1 walked all day and just as the sun was two hours high, or so, I saw the trees, Two miles, or about that, beyond me I saw a lone tree, and that was the last object I had made up my mind to reach, but when within half a mile or thereabouts of the tree, I saw what I thought was the tort, and took courage walked on at the rate of a mile an hour. Before I reached tt e tree I knew to:a cEr t an , y that it was the fort I had seen, and saw that a sleiga had started for me. They were coming on a gallop; I could see them; one or two were standing no looking towards me. They were whipping their horses, and the snow flying in all directions; I knew that I was saved, and my strength gave out; I could go no fur ther and sank down in the snow. When they were almost to me, I saw Lieut. Crocker driving, and heard him sa "Good Lord! it is Dadget" y: Dr. Clark jumped out with a bottle of whisky in one hand and a pie in the other. I was in no mood to refuse either, they had been looking for the Stage with a glass and saw me as I came over the last roll of the prairie, and ordered up a team to go out and help some one, they did not know whom. In half an hoar they had two sia•male teams and one two-male team going after the stage with refreshments for man and beast. They came back in twenty-four hong and say that I saved their lives. Only two were frczeo, one very bubly, Hu d will probably have to lose his toot. One mantwa s with us :Who had been in this Con try for thirty two years and in a'l thattime says he had never seen a worse storm t and that he had made up his mind I could not possibly live through it. These wbo went out after the stage says they never saw a more rejoiced lot than they when they knew of my safety. [I...&I7O.ErADED, DO ror HAVE CBE Yeast or Baking Powder ? Joseph.
