A frientLof wlici ventured
the border recently, with young Isaac
Walton and two nintrods, discovered
more want, than trout" flies and Regards

the top of his hat near the middle of
Maryland:
Dstiowrowx, Mn., June 28th 186-1.
kali ruralizing here so quietly—so far
outorthe reach of wars and rumors of
wars—that it may be questionable
whether newspapers will add anything
to one's stuck of happiness. Still' would
like to see the "Post" occasionally, if
only to remind me that dark as may be
the region whence it emanates, there is
-still a gleam of light edging its impend
ing murkiness. In this portion of Mary
land I find a great change going on in
the popular sentiment. A locus of the
Know Nothing monstrocity, the popular
mind was easily and naturally made to
concentrate the rays of Abolitionism
and reflect them again ors the anti-State
rights, heresies of Black Republicanism.
The nearer exigencies of the war have
awakened apprehensions which have
their origin in personal interests already
touched andmore largely threatened. Last
week the lirge sum of $168,000 was
paid out of this small county in commu
tation fees. This was for general Gov
ernment alone, and now the State draft
threatens additional exactions. A fair
vote now would show such a record
asainst the policy of the Government,
that would startle the radical Conven
Bun now in session at Annapolis. That
Convention, as you know, is now form
ing an organic law for the State, by vir
tue of an election at which only 22,000
suffrages were cast, out of about 95 to
98,000. This, of course, is still better
and more Democratic, that Mr. Lin
coln's proposition of making 8-10 of the
people submit to the other 1-10. This is
so at variance with the whole spirit and
genius and practice of our institutions,
that one cannot but wondei: at the ab
jecr submissiveness which marks its ac
ceptance by the people. It required the
unprincipled, though temporary sweep
of Know Nothingism, and the more du
rable and fearful triumph of ltepuhli
canism, to corrupt the moral heroism of
the people, and deaden the springs .f
noble and.elevaled patriotism, in order
to prepare the masses for the deep deg
radation into which they have fallen.
Whether such success and such triumph
maybe, or may not be, a natural and
philosophical sequence to political in
stitutions, such as we inherited, will be
for the future historian to decide.
Yours truly, &c
Barbaric Pulpit Politician
A meeting was held in the New
York: Cooper Institute, a few nights
since, in behalf of the Sanitary Commis
sion' at which addresses were made by
Henry Ward Beecher and other clergy
men, one of whom was the notorious
"Parson Browulow" of Tennessee, who
fled from Knoxville on the approach of
the Confederates, leaving his wife and
daughter to whatever fate might befall
theM. After describing his return to
Knoxville alter that place had fallen int,.
the possession of our forces, Brownlow
said he "took a Malignant satisfaction"
in looking at the rebel prisoners confin
ed in the jail where he WM once been
confined. Then this Christian teacher—
this "Reverend" follower of the Prince
of Peace—this pattern of pious loyalty
proceeded as follows:
And if I had the power, sir, I would
arm and uniform in the Federal habilia
ment's, every wolf and panther and cata
mount and tiger and bear in the moun
tains of America; every crocodile in the
swamps of Florida and South Carolina;
every negro in the Southern Con fedura
cy, and every devil in hell and pandemo
nium.
This war, I say to you, must be prose
cuted with a vim and a vengeance, until
the Rebellion is put down,
if it extermi
nates from the face of God Almighty's
green earth every man, woman, and
child south of Mason and Dixon's line.
(Cheers.) !!
When we come out of the war we will
come out with LOO,OOO or MAO of the
best of soldiers, who have got their hand
in, and would as soon have their hand
in a little longer as not. 6 Then I am in
favor of giving Old England a turn.
(Cheers.)
We can whip the Southern Confedera
cy; we can take in France and England
the whole civilized world, and I want
to carry it on until, we whip out all
God's creation.
How can it . be wondered at that the
war is taking on barbaric features, when
the confessed leaders of the so called
Christian and loyal sentiment of the day,
tike Mr. Beecher, are found in fellow
ship with such blatant and profane
wretches as this vulgar and cowardly
Parson ? Mr. Beecher himself not only
Iraternizes with Browlow, but puts forth
similar sentiments, though in a less atro
cious form. 0
A. Beautiful Beeision Under the
Conscription Law.
The following circular has been re
ceived by Provost Marshal Jones in this
city :
OFFICE OF A. A. PROVOST MARSHAL/
IasNERAL FOB ORIO.
[Circulai No. 71.]
When.a supplementary draft is made
for deficiencies- , occasioned by drafted
men failing toteport, and the quota is
thus filled, deserters from first draft, if
arrested and held, will be credited on
future calls.
By order of Colonel Porter,
L. V. BIERCE,
•
Major and A. A. General.
The amount of it is simply this, that
when a drafted man does not pay $3OO,
or get a substitute, or go himself, the
Government drafts again and takes his
neighbor in his place.
Can there be a greater injustice than
thip 4 If by reason of the neglect of the
flOvernment to retain its men, it loses
them, others not' peculiarly obligated
have to pay the penalty of those drafted.
There are about 2,600 men, we under
stand, who have not reported in the two
districts - in this county, and for these
'deserters another supplementary draft is
to be ordered. The deserters when
caught, are to be credited, not on the
draft under which they were drawn, but
on another and future draft. This is as
unfair and unjust a decision as can pos
sibly be Imagined.—Cin. Inquirer.
NOT OUT OF Tffr WILDEBSEBS.—A
large number of wounded soldiers are
yet in and about the Wilderness, and the
farm-houses in the vicinity of the battle
field are filled with the crippled who - were
left on the field on the night of the Wh of

a•rebel hospital in the Wilderness, gives
this= information: he says that dead of

That :cautions and courteous journal,
the Naliokiik Intelligencer , , whose `tloyal
ty" is,, we believe, unquestioned, in
treatintoro , what it calls "The Econo
hues ofrOr i t ? draws some very logical
conalusionS from history. We quote a
valuable and thought worthy portion Of
its remarks, with this one reminder—
that instead of "700,000," the number of
men already called into the war by Lin
coln is more than twice those figures,
great ns they are:
"We showed a few days, ago that a
force of 700,000 drawn from the Impula
lion of the Loyal States is a diversion of
one in thirty-three from the pursuits of
productive industry—a rate considers. ,
ble higher than that which obtained un
der the conscription for the French army
during the period when Napoleon was
waging, war against combined Europe,
and which was held to be such an over
draught on the energies of the people
that Allison directly attributes the over
throw of Napoleon to the violation of
the physical laws which regulate the
bounds ,of prudence in this as well as all
other matters of human conduct. And
if Napoleon's "absorption of one in forty
of the whole population in the profession
of arms" was judged to he injurious
to the vital powers of the French people,
in view of the fait that "it has never
been found, by expoience, that an em
pire, how powerful soccer, can for any
length Of time flourish with more than
,me in a hundred engaged in such pur
suits," we may surely begin to profit by
the lessens of history on this score. No
thing so tends to impair the strength of
a nation, as any excessive strains on its
powers• ' and if Mr. Wilson could justly
say, as he did, in the mouth of January,
that "we had more to fear from want of
money than want of men," the time has
now come when it behooves the people
to consider as well the dictates of polit
ical economy in this wise expenditure of
their blood as well as of their money.
It is not a question whether the men or
money which the Government needs
shall beTurnished or not, but whit these
needs really arc and how they shall be
most availably met. •
The following prudential maxims un

th, cam. of nations, nothing sf) (41'0-

Its energies.
2. That from n population of 23,000,000
not more than 300,000 can he advantage
ou,ly div( rt,•d from the pursuits of pro
ductive industry to the profession of
arms, and that even this proportion was
found excessive during the Napoleonic
wars.
3. That nothing so speedily tends to
exdaust the military strength and depress
the military spirit of a people as succes
sive calls for men in exaggerated num
bers under the promise that each call will
he the last.
4. That when the maximum number
of men who anThe profitably diverted
from the pur, , uits of productive imlustry

efficiency' must be sought in wise gen -
erlship, in careful husbanding of resour

()rester A Br ownson on the Issue
This learned doctor recently declared
in a public speech that he regretted that
he ever voted for Buchanan, but that
was a lest lamentable act than his vote
for Lincoln. He will not vote for him
again. He said:
AU my peri:onal interests would lead
me to support this Administration, but
I believe it to be corrupt, rotten to the
core. [lmmense cheer-]
A Voice—What do you think about
McClellan?
Mr. Itrownson—M, Ch.llan is a very
respectable man, and it k not worth
while to say anything against him till
you get a better general than he has
proved himself to he. [Cheers.] I
never was a military or political parti
zan of Gen. McClellan, but I owe him
this reparation to say that his succes.
sore have male him respectable as a
general. I Cheers. I And, In t Itee
times I do not feel that it is proper for
any man who loves his country to guar
eel with any loyal citizen. [ Cries or
"Good, good."' I have my own no
tions, and you have yours, hut there is a
hiulter duty than our party principles
iv Inch should move us. There is a high
er platform than that of the Republican
party and Democratic party, and that
platform is the Constitution and law of
the Union. [Great applause.)
Let me sum up in a few words what
I have to say. I oppose the reelection
of Mr. Lincoln, because I believe it to
be incompatible with the safety of this
country. 'I believe him to lie utterly
incompetent for the position which he
holds because I have made it u rule
through my life never to believe in the
honesty of a man who has the sobriquet
of "honest." I remember IlonestJohn
Davis of Massachusetts, and I remember
a speech made to him by Henry Clay,
who was of his own party. When Mr.
Davis had concluded a speech in the
.Senate, Mr. Clay went up to him looked
him in the face, and said, "Honest John
Davis, Catinie John Davis" He went
away and took his seat Wherever
you find a man who has the expression
or sobriquet of "honest or canale" at
tached to his name, he- is a fox: lie is
foxy. There is not a more, cunning
man in this country than Abraham
Lincoln. 'You talk against his Cabinet,
but it is all idle: Give Abraham Lin
coln. any Cabinet ; and the policy of the
Administration will not change.
Yes, he said to me himself, personally
"Mr. Seward does not rule this Govern
ment •, I am here, and not a single meas
ure of any importance is taken by any
Department of this Government without
my consent, and without my express ap
probation."' I say nothing against Wm.
11. Seward_ ; I say nothing of any mem
ber of Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet, except so
far as the Secretary of the Treasury is
independent of him. I do not like Mr.
Chase's financial system. I fear more
the danger,from that than I do from the
want of the Southern rebels. I hope, I
try to persuade myself to hope, that he
will get, through without any financial
collapse. But it contradicts all my prin
ciples of finance. The currency goes
counter to 'every principle that, during
that long controversy we had from 1832
to 1834 I, with the best study I have
given the subject, had fixed for myself.
I do not believe in paper money, nor do
I believe that a Secretary who is driven
to have twelve or sixteen different kinds
of paper money and paper circulation,
is a suitable man to be at the head of
the Treasury Department. Something
of that may be due to Mr. Chase, but iu
all else, I hold Mr. Lincoln personally
responsibleifor all the Waste of treasure,
and all tbe waste of-precious life dnriug
the last two years.. [Applause.) With

than the superficial Lion ifitettrStit
were to enforce personal service rigidly
under the conscription. This latter
question our contemporary thinks is in
deed important, but something of much
more consequence is brought up by the
prOposition fo couple with the repeal of

Nate give us - lan Army. Ti l Make thA
=seivi6e. hold I;rir 'alsbint teriri Orilk,-how
ever, will not give us an army, although
it may give us men.''
The views we have enforced in clef&
onstration of the impolicy of acting on
the mistaken ideas that the vigor of our
military operations depends, beyond
certain liriaits, on the mere number of
our armies, are thus corroborated by
the observation of the Adcertiscr. it
says:
"It must be concluded, we fear, that
the Senate and Dort of the House have
been led astray by a fundamental error
as to the true method of carrying on war
with success. They have fallen back
upon the plan' Of sustaining 'a war by
simply throwing into it men in enor
mous masses—the method which char.;
acterizcs the infancy, but not the ma-,
turity, of the military art. Their error
is akin to, indeed it is identical with,
that extraordinary lolly which has caus
ed men, even in Congress, to talk of
calling out a million of men for the
special purpose of taking Iti.chmond.
The public felt, and so, we 'believe, did
Congress, that such propositions betray
ed an entire ignorance of the problem
to be solved, and that scientific skill,.
discipline,. and good Genernlship must
be relied upon to do the work, and not
the mere aggregation of men in vast
numbers. To seek to set pass the obsta
cles which Generalship fitlls to conquer
by the mere infts of the force hurled
against it, is it mediaeval folly which
everybody understood as soon as it was
applied to a definite undertaking, like
the rapture of Ilichniond.
"But how does the rrincipli involved
ill the action of the Senate:differ front
th.tt of the proposition ju.t. noticed? It
is felt that something must he done to
strengthen the army and sustain the
war. The Senate, groping about to as-•
certain what this 'something' ahould - be,
settles upon a plan svhich simply ena
bles the military authorities to throw'
into the war at any time half a million
of men for a short period. Nothing is
done to secure an accession of disciplin-'
eel strength, or to compel the more effi
cient use. and• concentration' of 'What.
forces we have. The Senate relies upon
numbers merely. It hopes to havedis
charged its ditty When it has proVided .
the means by which the army may have
on its rolls a million of men the year
through, men who are coming and going,
discharged as soon as they lose the raw
ness of the fresh recruit.
We can assure those who adopt- this
crude notion that so far from discharg
ing their duty by adopting such a meas
ure. they have only-incurred a heavier
responsibility. They tfo what lieS in
their power to fix upon o u r m ilit ar y ad
ministration a system which will give
us an army as large indeed, but :CIS° as
weak, as the army of Xerxes, a syNtern
which is strongly condemned by the
judgement oC military men, by the Pre
cedents or history, and by the common
seine of the eoulltry. They undertake
to set our military establishment upon
loundation which will tax more se
verely than ever the energies of the
Treasury, and which, so far from dimin
ishing, mul inevitably increase the In
roads made by war upon the wealth and
resources of the nation; We will not
seek to destroy the hope on whjelt! this
action is !Minded, or an early 'triumph
over the rebellion, but we must say that
in case thathope is not well founded,
the risk which is taken is palpably skull
;is no sound statesman would encoun
ter.
gyp ale nut led to these r . entarks;hy
disaypointment therriObable success
of the attempt to rep! at the conunuta
lion clause. ill rung as our own con
ict Or the impolity of such repeal,
and' el, ar as is the public judgment
against it, we could recognize in the re
peal, it it were the prelude to a vigorous
conscription, a mark Of energy and de
termination at which the patriot should
rejoice. lint it is obvious that there is
no such real exercise of vigor in the
minds of those who act in this matter.
It is plain that the repeal is 'favored in
the expectation that, by express direct
ion of Congress or by the decision of
the Executive, men will be called out
only for short terms of service. Such
action is not strong but feeble, and pro
ceeds not from confidence and energy,
but from delusion and timidity, t*h
action it is that causes - this people to
look with distrust and dissatisfactiOn
upon those who should be the exponents
of its faith and the agents of its will."
