'he mime of ill used Molt um did not sound more terrible in the ears usurper BOLLINGIIROI•ZV., than does th:d or Gen. MCCLELLAN in those of the lead ing Abolitionists; this is particularly the case since the monster demonstration the other evening, la New York. The Tribune, the ablest of the radical press, toimented itself for several days to *mitten the force of that demonstration. Its most specious sophistry to this end is contained in an article of which the following is a specimen; it says: `But no candle INIPCLELLANITE Will deny that Lee's generatihip has. done! more for McCielloh than McClellan's own. We appeal to every can did observer for the truth and pertinence of our averment. that Union Jaunt-es and Union discouragement are the chief grounds of hope for 'McClellan's success.

Thiele plausible enough, but it will not damage McCrirtadat in the estimation of any one who will take the trouble to sift it. If, after the Administration had dismissed MCCLELLAN ,(after he had whipped LEE at Antietam) his succes sor had done as well, he would of course have been partially forgotten_ But look at the facts. From the day of McCLEL- Leres dismissal, because he was "too slow," until the present what has been our conditidn? Continued slaughter and conscriptions. It is not, therefore, LEE'S strategy and victories , which make Mc ..CLELLAN strong, _but our Administra tion's faaure. It is the Administra tion, therefore, entrusted with the lives and means of our people which we must hold to a responsibility, and not Gen. LEE. MCCLELLAN is the only General who from the commencement of hostili ties seems to have had any idea of the magnitude of the struggle; the people feel this, and the continued failure of the Administration, since his retirement from the army, of course render him more attractive than if his successor had done something surpassing his achieve ments. It is not the "country's ruin" therefore, but the Administration hav ing ruined it, which makes McCi.E.LLAN so strong in the affections of the people. AN 'INSTITUTION WANTED. Our city contemporary, the Commer • 7 — Feclarnatiott of incorrigible girls; it fur nishes the following incident going to prove the correctness of its views: "On Saturday morning a girl aged about HiX teenyears was taken before the Mayor of this city, charged With incorrigibility and threaten ing thelife of her mother. The girl said to the Mayor. "Mayor lam a bad girl; I know I am bad, and what is wore I intend to rennin bad It does me good to be sad. I like it, and if live for eighty years I'll .be bail still . You can do what ,you like with me. It won 't change me a bit. You can't make me better, for lam de termined to be Pad as long as I live." It ap malt that this tu li e u= a h s i te alreadyi.uwribtebeanuin t h t a h v e_ experiencedtng any change in her manners." This is but illustrative of what is no torious in all the great cities of the Union, and Pittsburgh, we regret to say, is at present reconed among the worst. This is easily accounted for, however, Pittsburgh is perhaps the most prosper. ous community in the West; and in such cities, the abandoned who are starved out of comparatively poverty stricken places, always settle. Besides in some loialities, Chicago for instance, the au thorities drive their abandoned females from their midst, and this is one reason why our city, at present, is so overrun with them. A remedy for this terrible and Increasing evil is the next impor tant consideration. The Commercial very properly suggests that: "If we would save our city from becoming such a pest house of vice and crime as Chicago, the influence of our Christian people must be 'exerted'in our own behalf." This fs a good and radical suggestion mere municipal edicts and legislation, will not cure the disease complained of; but Christian teaching may If it will not reclaim the already fallen, it will at least save the rising generation. In Chicago, cases of suicide have occured, committed by unfortunate women, whom shame had not entirely abandoned. 'We know of nothing, indeed which calls for th; good offices of the Christian and the philanthropist so imperatively as this lamentable evil What should be done to reform this terrible condition of affairs, is Atr the clergymen of the country to devote as much of their time to the instruction of the youth of their,charges as they have, for the past ten years, to the cause of the imaginary woes of the Southern ne groes. Let them in their assemblages and pulpits, pay more attention to the moral condition of their flocks, and less to the political agitation of the times, cnu great good will result from their la bors. By this means remarks a con temporary, the seeds of a high moral sentiment would be implanted in the breastlrof the youth of our country, the fruits of which would be seen in a re duction in thenumber of poor abandon ed women, and in a loftier regard for the endearments .and influences of a virtuous and happy home Tap. Peraqnratg are quite right, in view of this state of things, to exult In the prospect of an easy triumph. They have good ground, in thete dissensions among Union men, for exulting over their (the Union men's) coming defeat. —N. .I",,Times. Ifyou didn't wish . dissenifons in your party, why did yuu re-nominate Mr. Lincoln ? It is owingto your own blind and stupid perverseness that your party is divided.

The London Times says: Some most curious experiments were made at 5.110t2 iillrryneSS during Monday and Tuesday, with "Big Will," the 6011 pounder of Sir William Armstrong, Its calibre is 131 inches, its greatest external diameter 4 feet 51 inches, its total length 14 feet inches, and its weight upward of 22 tons. The first rounds were fired to test the volacity of the shot on leaving the gun, and its volac ty on striking the tar get at 1,500 yards. For this practice, it was laid at three degrees elevation, and, when tired, the noise was less painful than that of the 100 pounder; but the shock of the explosion was very great, and became distressing to those who were obliged to stand near. The enormous bulk of the projectile made it perfectly easy to trace its pro gress from the muzile of the gun to its park, arid nothing could more striking ly demonstrate the accuracy of the piece or the care with which it was laid than watching the huge shot rising with a long wavering roar high into the air as it culminated and then began its down ward flight till it struck full on the little black spot at which it was aimed, and then ricocheting on, bound after bound, till its course was lost in a long thick trail, half sand, half water. Three rounds were fired at this elevation to ti. , st accuracy. Its mean error in range. —that is to say, the difference between the shot which fell nearest and that which fell furthest—was only 16} yards, while the average of the error from the true line of fire was 1 foot 9 inches. In all 47 rounds were fired on Mon day, which, with the rounds previously discharged at proof and against iron tar gets, made a total of 74 shots. The guns showed signs of wear. There seems however, not the slightest reason to doubt that the piece will bear easily all the rounds, 250 in number, with which the committee intend to test it. Com paring the performance of the fOO - for accuracy with the perform ance of the French, the Scott, and the Lancaster guns, which are now compe ting at Shoebury, the 600 pounder has on the whole a clear gain at 5 degrees and 10 degrees of elevation. On Tues day, the experiments were con tinupd for velocity, which was testdd at 120 feet from the muzzle of the gun, at 530 yards and at 1,000 yards. At the muzzle it was 1,240 feet per second; at 500 yards it had diminished to 1,172 feet; at 1,000 yards it was 1,122 feet, cor responding with the velocities up to 1,500 yards, which were taken some time ago. It hail been said this gun would take so long a time in loading as to diminish its value as an engine of war. oe Congress of the United States and the President concurred in asking the people to pray on Past Day that we as a nation may not he destroyed by an "obstinate adhesion to our councils which may be in conflict with His eter nal purposes." This is an extraordinarypetition. We think nothing of the kind was ever pro posed before. It has some peculiar Sig niticance to which we would do well to give heed. Doubtless nations, like in dividuals, suffer from a blind adhesion to their fixed opinions, when reason, circumstances, and duty demand their change, It is hard to acknowledge that we are wrong, and hard to admit that we were mistalam, if we were even honest in our intentions : And now that we are praying over the great questions of war and Union, reunion and peace, we are in danger of being obstinate in our adherence to what in our excitement we had regarded as indispensable. The President and Congress ask us to pray that God would not suffer us to be de stroyed by this obstinacy; that is, that we may not perish by adhering to our own opinions, when by timely yielding to the opinions of those that are wiser and better than we are the country may be saved with Union and peace. If there is any meaning in the President's request, it is this that we have indicat ed. And we regard the suggestions as one of incalculable value at this mo ment. The day of prayer is gone, but not the time of prayer. That is always present. And this petition, "save us from ourselves" is never out of place —New York Observer. [From the New York Herald.] How Much it' has Cost to make Wendell Phillips H a p py _ More than half a million "niggers who, three years ago, were fed by planters on hog and hominy, are now fed by the United States on hard tack and salt, horse: To bring about this change in the condition of these niggers it has cost the United States about five thousand dollars and the life of one white man per nigger. Has the chang e in the condition of the niggers been of any advantage to them commensurate with this price? No. No one can pretend that the sable wretches were not in all respects better as they were. But we have gained one great point by this change—we have made Wendell Phillips happy. Another e'reat point gained is that we satisfied Garrison. Greely and - Exeter Hall. Can a free people desire to barter national prosperity for a nobler purpose than this? Northern and Southern men, to the number of a million—the first choice and very flower of the race-- have fallen in battle or have died more horribly in hospitals, and the nation is nearly brok en down with financial, embarrassments and all this has been done to make some hundreds of thousands of niggers even more wretched than they were—and to make Wendell Phillips happy. Has any one the impudence to complain that this I; a very largo price for a:very little whis tle? Send him to Fort Lafyette. THE last exposed case of bounty jump ing is that of a soldier who had lost one of his eyes in battle, and was discharged from the service. Shortly after ho en tered into partnership with a substitute broker in Boston, who , furnished him with a very neat glass eye and enlisted him, and he was sent to the army. There he soon lost his eye again, or rather removed it and put it into his pocket and obtained his discharge. This process he several limes repeated, and when unable to get his discharge, deserted. Unfortunately thirteen prov ed an unlucky number for him, and the trick being discovered, he was tried and sentenced to be shot AN INCIDENT "In face of the repeated discourage umpeonnt s t ha which hearts M Mar of L t i h n e c l o o t y n a h i a tri s en in o fi f ic t le h d e country, hisrude indifference to patriotic intercession, and his notorious disregard of constitutional obligations, whenever such disregard squares with his individ• ual ambition, it would seem to be doubt= fill if even such an expression would turn him from his purposes, : or dis'odge even so much as one caprice tram nut his mind. Under the figure of a jester, he is essentially a despot, and unless we 1 can obtain guarantees from him, in ad vance, as to his future Cabinet, and his foreign and domestic policy, we may as well resign ourselves either to anarchy, or submit to imperialism at once. These are not mere figures of speech, projected 'upon the public ear by factious opposi tion, but the settled sentiment of scores of loyal men, with whom we have com pared opinions during the last three months. He has subverted the inde pendence of the Congress, by dictating legislation with suggestions. accilinpa nied by a warning of a veto. He has eondetnnend the Senate in its application for a change of Cabinet. By his recent refusal to sign the Reconstruction Bill (and afterward promising to carry out its provisions by executive authority,) he has virtually directed Congress to content itself with becoming a mere advisory body; and his appoint. ment of Michael Hahn, as Military Gov ernor of Louisiana, during the session of the Senate, without constitutionally submitting the appointment to their judgment, is a virtual abrogation of the most important functions of that branch of the Government. These usurpations of the attributes of the great councils of the State; his numerous unauthorized arrests in d istricts where no martial law has been proclaimed; his invasion of the liberty of the press, and his humili ation of the country by surrendering the right of asylum to carry favor with a foreign power, are the joint complaint Auld protest, not only of the copper ' heads, so-called, but of every loyal or ganitation in the land.

I But it should be the duly of the last named spontaneous convention to in struct him in these matters. We do not propose that this convention should as sutne au attitude of menace. It should assemble in a dignified and patriotic spirit, and say to the President as a nominee for re-election, that with sad hearts and a willingness to be his friends, but chiefly to promote the welfare of the nation, they desired to represent to him hat,they feel to be the true wishes of .the people and the real condition of the candidacy. That they are well advised it is the desire of the country to have a reformed foreign and domestic policy, and that, if he will frankly give assur ance to that effect, and appoint ministers whose known opinions would guarantee the new policy in its integrity they, the members of that convention, would feel encour aged to go back to the People, arouse them front their dangerous apathy, and, by liberal contributions of both means and efforts, endeavor to secure his re election.

The Times newspaper has at last had its eyes opened to see how illegal, im politic, and useless were the sentence of the military court, and the approval of President Lincoln, which condemned Mr. Vallandigham to banishment from the loyal States for imputed words of assumed disloyalty. In an article of sharp rebuke of the orders of, Genera ls. Hunter and Payne, which expelled to Dixie or Canada certain citizens of Ken tucky and Maryland, whose conduct was unsatisfactory to those Generals, the Tillte4 says: Banishment, even as a military pun ishment, resolves itsely practically intu it confession by those that employ it, that the persons subjected to it are not citizens, but aliens. Foreigners who be come nuicences—without committing any positive breach of public law—may he ordered to leave the country. It is a wholesome right which every civilized Strap reserves to itself. But the citizens of this republic can only tie so treated ho accepting the very doctrine that Davis and his minions proclaim—that the United States no longer constitute one, but two countries. This much as to the law of the Val landigham trial and sentence. In res pect to its impolicy, the same journal adds: It seems to take a class of military officers a long time to comprehend that it is their business, nut to establish a complicated line of policy in dealing with rebels, but to get at them and thrash them, such of them, at least, as have arms in their hands. If their is a class —as no doubt there is, and a very large class--in the border States thst cannot be dealt with as open enemies, they can, at least, be put under restraints which will prevent them from doing serious mischief. To banish them either to Dix ie or to Canada dbes not prevent their doing mischief. On the contrary, it gives many of them an opportunity for doing vastly more harm to the national cause than the worst of them could do at home. While we deplore the partisan preju dice which prevented our neighbor from condemning at the time, and as it de served, the military arrest, trial, and sentence of Mr. Vallandigham, we can but welcome even this death-bed repent. ance, which, now that the Lincoln par ty is in extremig, humbly confessed a political crime. Barbarous Outrage., Since writing the article in our first edition concerning the "branding of white men" at the Provost Marshal's office in Tarrytown, we have been vis ited by one of the young men on whom this infamous outrage has been perpe trated. His name Is Theo. Lewis, a res ident of Staten Island. He states that he desired to enter the army as a volun teer, and for that purpose presented himself at the office of the Provost 31.:;r -shall at Tarrytown. He was examined by the surgeon, who, having rejected him without giving his reasons for so doing, branded him upon the back, in:- printing an X between the shoulders with caustic. We have seen the mark made,.so inhumanly by the officers, and can vouch for the facts. Another young man named Jesse Davenport had to submit to the same brutal outrage. We hope the military authonties will at once investigate the matter, and punish the surgeon of the above districts in such a manner as will deter other subordinate officials from committing such inhuman acts. We cannot believe that orders have been issued front headquarters, ordering Provost Marshal's and their surgeons to brand human beings the same as army horses, and look, there fore to General Dix or General Hays for an explanation of this abominable prac tice, which is degrading to the service and outraging civilization.—N.
