'LAVERY AND THE REBELLION
When the Southern leaders forced
their section into rebellion, every one
maw that 'if they persiate.d in it, it would
evetitilaily put an end to negro slavery.
The Abolition leaders, however, were
not willing to let the institution disap
pear as-our arms advanced into South
ern tetribory. They insisted upon acts
of COngress, and bulls against the com
et t 4 hasten its downfall. When Congress
acted, the fanatics cried out "slavery is
dead;" but it was considered necessary
to constantly kicking the corpse,
in order to prevent it from rising a nd
recovering new life again. These fanat
ics, oven now, after three years of car-
nage and blood, do not seem to hare
learned anything whatever; they are
now just as stupid incorrigible and
bloody, as when they swore ten thou
sand old women, with broom sticks,
could conquer the entire South.
On the 16th inst., in Congrtss the fa--
natics of that body returned to their fa
orite
amusement of killing:slavery by
legislatibn; they had a partizan purpose
also to subserve. They attempted to '
push through an amendment to the Con
stitution, by which slavery was to be
abolished forever in the United States.
Now, this was mere buncombe, because
slavery must be destroyed, if killed at
all,, by hard blows and not by acts of
Congress. Against this absurd amend
ment the conservatives of the House
voted almost in mass, upon which the
New York Tribune sat up the following
howl,which has been echoing ever since
from the smaller Abolition organs
throughout the country. It said:
The Democratic
. party in the House to-day
deliberately strapped the burden of slavery on
Hashoulders for the coming Presidential elec
tion. It voted to maintain human slavery, find
refused to consent wan amendment of the Con
stitution of the United States to abolish it. o
day, in the pinch and crisis of the war waged
by the South against the North in the interest
of slavery, every member of the party except
three voted to sustain the accursed institution
it-ti to retain within the Constitutlom the few
doubtful guarantees of its existence,
According to this madman of the Tri
tune, all who do not favor his crazy and
chimerical vagaries are necessarily ad
. vocates of slavery. The Democrats and
' other conservatives in the House, upon
the occasion refered to, and having some
little regard for their oaths to support

ViLL-ANDIGHAM.
The Abolition press is s ftingularly len
ient, regarding VAIANDIGEWS'I3 defiant
return from banishment. to his home in
9hio; many of those, Who a year ago
Wore for hanging him, now speak of him
as if he were not worth minding. For
Instance the Galitte of this city, alluding
to VALANDIOHAM commenced in this
way:
The Government, we are much gratified to
notice, pays no attention to jALAntDG HAM.
His return home, at the time of the Pfloaoss'
raid into Kentucky, was intended as a tieftanre to
the Government—a challenge to bring on hostil
ities between it and his adherents.
If this statepaent of the Gazette be true
in what a lamentable and despicable po
.aitiou-does it :place our National Ad
ministration? Twelve months since it
was quite valiant with three hundred
armed men; in the dead waste and mid
dle of the night, in the quiet home of
the accused; , to arrest him and hurry
him off to prison. Now, in defiance
of his sentence of banishment he re-
turns to his home in Ohio; and for the
purpose of defying the Administration
to re-arrest him. Nay more, he Caine,
nets alleged, to assist the rebels in ma
king raids into Ohio. And yet the
Gentle is much gratified that the Gov
ernment "pays no attention to VALAN-
Driairku." We scarcely know which to
despise the most, the blustering and
cowardly Administration, or the poor
idependent.spaniel which so obsequious
' and inetinii applauds i s cowardice.
Qr . this backing do n, this utter
t
aving in, this exhibition of the white

traticin, :the country is indebted to the
tcariCss position assumed by PRE
MONT and his Cleveland convention.

THE ABOLITI O N PARTY
Although the Pittsburgh Gazette for
three years insisted that slavery was
the cause of the war and that hostilities
must continue until the institution is
utterly exterminated—even if it takes
"the last dollar and the last man," it
yesterday made the following evasion,

But the trouble with the thick skull

his brother fanatics can not see any
thing but slavery that is in the way of
crushing the rebellion. They are not
willing to put down the rebelllon with
out the absolute destruction of slavery
being insured; theY, therefore, regard
the death of slavery as being the princi
ple of the war and the lite of the Union
as a mere principle.
This gallant and meritorious soldier
has been assigned the command of the

THE CATILINE SLANDER
Inside View of Radical Roguery
[From tne Albany Eve°tar, Journal June
The Ere n ng Post attempts to reverse
our positions, making itself the assailed,
instead of the assailing party. That jour
nal went out of its way to stigmatize me
asa "fellow of whourthe President should
"keep clear." rif the "(oarSeneto: 01 this

its meditated treachery than by Any
question of "temper or manners.' . The
Post, however, only indulges its 'meth
"generalities" as :in army throws for.
ward its skirmishers preliminarily to an
engagement. Whenever the Post, its
neighbor the Tribune, or Mayor t)pdyke,
get into a "riuht place," they resort to
the "steamer Cataiine " ln n nll emer
gencies they play that earl. The alleg.
ed "frauds" in the "charter" of the
"Cataline" hate cov( rid -up arid shield

sink a nation. Under the auspiera

self upon me because I had declined to
demand from the Board of State Can
vassers a certificate of his election to
Congress without regard to the question
of whether he was or was not legally
chosen), stimulated by the Tribune,
prominent members of the "1:11i013 De
fense Committee," Collector Barney and
Mr.'Optlyke, singled out the `•Catahne
character' . as fraudulent, though bun-
deeds of steamers, (whore and since, had
1 and have been chartered at much higher
rates. It was not that too much was
paid for the Cat aline, but that my en
emies ( gentlemen whose hostility bears
even date with sonic disappointed aspi
ration) supposed that 1 was connected
with that charter. This supposition, and
the accusations founded upon it, arc
wholly untrue and unjust, working the
double wrong of injuring the parties who
were concerned in the charter of the Car -
aline, and of traducing me, who was
not in any way or manner, directly or
indirectly, so concerned.
The Putt, atter a dissertation on
"temper and manners," proving, in its
own way, that its free epithets of "fel
low" and "burglar — are not "course,"
Concludes:
Yet we cannot congratulate Mr. Weed
on playing very well the part he has
been forced to take. There is enough
of his abuse, such as it is; but it is so
coarse as to be nauseous. He is much
more at home in his well-known capaci
ty of father of the lobby at Albany. lle
is much more ingenious and successful
in manouvering a gridiron railway
through the New York Legislature•
His dexerity in chartering the steamer
Cataline for the use of the government
in the beginning of the war, was the ad
miration of all Wall street. Mr. Dawes,
on the floor of the House of Representa
tives at Washington, it may be remem
bered, paid a handsome tribute to his
financial ability, when be spoke of the
liberal percentage secured by him on
contracts given out at the opening of
our civil war. Here his genius shines
almost without a peet. "These,', as
Virgil said of another person in Dry
den's translation—
"fhese are imperial arts and worthy thee "
Let Mr, Weed. then, confine himself
to these.
However, if he chooses to indite
another silly article of the same sort for
the Evening Jourrutl, he has our free
consent.
I avail myself of the courtesy of the
Post "to indite another Silly article," re
matking, by the way, that the services
of the reputed "father of the lobby," may
be dispensed with while an editor of the
Erening Post remaThs a prominent mem
ber of that body, passing his winters in
Albany, using the columns of that con
venient journal to support or oppose bills
in which he is interested. With this
representative in the "lobby at Albany,"
and another of his associates with his
arts shoulder deep, as navy agent, into
the'federal treasury, the Poet's censor
ship of legislative purity is modest and
bepoming! If by invithg "another silly

DEM SIR! Your note requesting me
to state your oonnection with the pur
chase and charter to the United States
Government of the steamer Cantaline is
received.
After this• boat had been verbally
chartered by the agent here of the Cloy
eminent, she was °tiered for sale, and I
advanced to the purehaser the money to
}ray for her. The amount of the pur
chase money was obtained by me from
one of our banks on a discount of cer
tain notes. As I had done with you be
fore, so on the occasion of borrowing
this sum, I, without explaining to you
in any way the object for which I de
sired to raise the money, asked you to
put your name on two notes, which at
the same time I presented to you in your
room for your signature. You sined
them without inquiry or remark. Be
yond this simple and remote proceeding,
I am not aware that you ever had any
connection with the purchase or chatter
of the boat. And as you had been atoent
from the city for some days, and arrived
only a few hours before you signed the
notes, I feel certain that you could not
have known anything of the pun-base,
which was arranged some two—or of the
charter which had been verbally made,
some fear—days previously.
Truly yours. „TWIN E. Dar Ki IN.

the navy agent at New York, directing
them to procure certain articles and to

Camp, whom evt rybody knows as trad
ing upon his conn , ,ition with the Tl,'-
bune, and who is now south getting tot•
ton from the snemy, and sending them
supplies in return, avows his connection
with Mr. Greeley in cotton speculations.
"King Cotton," in more ways than one
works evil to our country. It ti'r , t caus
ed rebellion and war. It now. present
ing strong temptations to avarice, is fur
nishing our enemies with the mean , or
subsistence. The valley of the Mississip
pi is represented as reeking with cotton
corruptions, in which agents of the treas
ury and officers of the • army are impli
cated. Indeed, the recent disastrous de
feat of Genaral Banks is represented to
have been a cotton expedition! Messrs.
Allen and Filbrick, of Rhode Island,
partners or agents of Senator Sprague,
are said to have enjoyed peculiar facili
ties for obtaining cheap cotton. Before
secession culminated in rebellion, I fore
saw, more clearly than others, its cer
tainty, and its formidable character.
For endeavoring to prepare the Govern
ment and people for a coufiict which
would severely try the strength of the
Union, I was denounced by the Erening
Post New York Tribune, and other ultra
journals. Denunciations were soon fol
lowed with false accusations, designed
to impair my supposed influence with
the Administration. But I labored on,
however, earnestly, faithfully, unselfish
ly, but with no effect. I say unselfishly,
for I had only the safity and welfare of
my country at heart. The President;
each member of his cabinet, and the offi
cers of the Government, know that I
have asked nothing personal, either of
place, patronage, or profit for myself.
I have had offers and opportunities, fre
quent and liberal, to make money out of
the Government, but they were declin
rd. It is well that they were, fur such is
the vigilance of public censors that I am
not even allowed the privilege of en
gaging in ordinaty business. When,
some months since, it was alleged that I
had purchased whisky on speculation,
that was held by the Tribune to be a
suitable occasion for sharp reproof.
