as if Stanton was determined to trifle
with their reputation, in order to save
his and his master’s own. But be ; tkat

I listen to his strictures, informing it and
Halleck of their lamentable “lack of

the reader to Temember that in .the
fourth year of the war, notwithstanding
all the Abolition lying about the tum

tion makes Grant and Sherman testify to
the necessity of enforcing the present
conscription for half a million more.
Reflect upon that, master Brooks, and

to justify any abatement of effort.”
Now, if Greeley believes his: own fig

the Democrats intend to carry, in addi

give us three more than enough; to
which may be added Ohio; New Hamp

Mb. Editor— Sir: —At the Abolition

is re has-e said that if the illus
ions now living he
with the Lincoln
.pffl|y. defy Major
Bp||vn or any other member of the Ab
olitfon party to prove the statement.
'Ojgthe contnj|sglig|jg(|tjou, Clay, Web
-s|pi‘, Wash and 1 Jpfferson with all
the good departed men were living,they
would be in the ranks of the Democracy
battling for tkeUjyou. r and Peace ytgjer
the Constitution. In order to show
what an antagonism ithe're is -between'
-thefanatical principiesofthe Abolition
party and thaplfinci^leS ; Yyhjck Andrew
Jackson advocated when he . was the
head-and front of the Democratic party,
I will quote Sri'extract from his farewell
addjresm /- ..... - =
“The foundationof the Government
must be laid in the,, atfections of the
people; ih the'secunty which it giveß to
life, liberty and property in every quar
ter of the country, and in the fraternal
attachments which the citizens of the
several States bear one to, another as
members of bur political family mutual
ly contributing to promote the happi
ness of each other.. Hence the citizens
of each State should studiously avoid
everything calculated to wound the sen
, sibilfty or offend the just pride of the
people of other States, and they should
frown upon any proceedings within
their own borders likely to disturb the
tranquility of their political brethren In
other portions of the Union."
The language of General McClel
lan’s letter of acceptance although not
expressed in so many words breathed
the same spirit.
“The Union was originally formed by
the exercise of a spirit of conciliation
and compromise. To restore and pre
serve it the same spirit must prevail in
our councils and in .the hearts of the
people." ...
Will Major Brown be kind enough to
inform us which conforms most to the
language of General Jackson’s Farewell
Address, the- mild’ and conciliatory lan
guage* tT-Genefal McClellan; or the ha
rangues of Abolition stump speakers.

Mn. Editor.— Sir: —This morning’s
Commercial made the statement that in
Camp Reynolds McClellan would not
receive 10 votes. I have been ■ laying
in this camp tor a week, and I am pre
prepared to call the. editor of that pa
per a liar, or any other correspondent
who writes Buck stuff. If he or any of
his lick-spittles had been in the old reg
iment barracks on the night of the 12th,
he would have known what Democrats
are in this camp, I can safely say, that
two; thirds of onr barrack are-Democrats
and it holds about two hundred men.
and from the general sentiment of the
camp I suppose it will average the same.
In our own squad of about 25 there are
15, to my personal knowledge, who are
staunch Democrats. As I leave this
morning tor the Western army I will
say no more, but leave this for you to
fix up and give an insertion in your pa

Tlie National lntelligi ncer concludes
?? editorial on this subject in
the following words. 3
the Congress. The defection of the tine
trom the constitutional objects and ends
t* l ® tvar has been as marked as the
defection of ; the other. The traces of.
this defection are seen as clearly in the
legislation of the coun ,ry during the
last two years as in the proclamations
and manifestoes of the President: Poll
vf confiscation and sweeping
schemes of social reform in the South
ern States have come not only to divide
the attention of our legislators with the
_ interests of the Union and the successful
ijrpSecutidn of the 1 war, but-' these pofi
•? s ,?®S[ schemes have been so identified :
with the fate of the Union and the issue
of the war that it is entirely just to say
that the original theory of the war has
been entirely'repudiated by the domin
ant party in the National Legislature.
Invited again and again to re-affirm the
principles of the Crittenden resolution it
constantly refused to do so. Why this
refusal, if, as the Springfield Republican
says, there had been no ohange in the
object of the war? Was not that resolu
tion accepted jn July, 1881, as the ex-'
pression of the almost unanimous sen
timent of President, Congress, and coun
try? Why was the same resolution
cast out ih 1862 and 1888 and 1864, by
the same body which in 1861 had adopt
ed it with such unexampled unanimity,
but that in the mean time there had
been a total change in the
policy of the Government? Even as
early as December 4th, 1881, the game
Congress which in July of that . year
had adopted the resolution of Mr Crit
tenden, refused, on re-assembling in
I second session, to reaffirm it, when ask
ed to do so on motion of Mr. Holman
of Indiana. His motion to tbi6 effect
was laid on the table by a vote of 71
yeas to 6S nays. On lhal4th of Decern
ber, 1863, the same ; hjsolution was
brought forward by Mr. f Finck in the
House of Representatives for reaffirma
tion by the present Codgrefs. It waß
laid on the table by a vote of yeas 81 to
nays 64—every appporterof the Admin
istration voting in the affirmative, and
every opponent of the Administration
voting in the negative.
Wa thus see that there had been a
change of opinion, and the record of the
House shows who had changed. It was
tlie supporters of the Administration
who had changed, as the Administration
ilself had changed with them. To deny
that there has been any such change in
the object of the war is to deny the re
cords of Congress, the proclamations
aud manifestoes of the President, and
the evidence of onr own senses. We ail
know that the whole theory of the war
has been changed, not only in its means
but in its ends, not only in its measures
but in its objects. The Piesident has
happily put this subject beyond contest
or doubt by his terse rescript addressed
“to all whom it may concern.” The
portion of the Republican party which,
by its “pressure,” its importunity, and
its eamestne ss, precipitated this change
on a hesitating and reluctant Executive
stand to-day in the attitude of conscious
triumph, and demand from the same Ex
ecutive the pqmplete and punctual fnl
iiluient of his pledges, engagements,
and commitments. They are not men
who palter in any double sense. They
leave to others the heavy task of trying
to prove that tho President did not
mean what he said in that paper. They
fe?l assured he did mean it, and it is
only in this sense that they .interpret it
or support him. They know the policy
and ends of the Government have been
changed in the conduct of the war, to
suit their purposes, and, having dictated
this change, they will not be slow to
see that it is carried to its logical con
clusions, if the powers of the Govern
ment should be suffered by the people
to remain in the hands of those who
now administer it
POLITICAL*^
The two Platforms Compared.
The New York Herald, which Reputi
lican journals are tqud pf quoting as „n
“Independent paper,” after declaring
that the Chicago platform “sustains the
integrity of the Union,” continues :
The Chicago platform says nothing
about slavery, while the Baltimore plat
form tries to make slavery an issue. The
Baltimore platform thanks our brave sol
diers, and so does the Chicago platform.
The Chicago platform condemns arbitra
ry arrests, and the Baltimore platform
approvesthem. The Baltimore platfbrm
calls for a change in the Cabinet, and
the Chicago platform calls for a change
in the whole administration, Tae Chi
cago platform extends its sympathy to
our soldiers who are confined in rebel
prisons, and the Baltimore platform does
not. The Baltimore platform refuses to
have any peace except upon the “uncon
ditional surrender,ll of the rebels, while
the Chicago platform offers a cessation of
hostilities and a convention of Slates
with a view to peace on the basis of re
union. The Chicago platform denoun
ces military interference in political elec
tions, and the Baltimore platforavendor
ses this interference. Here the contrasts
and similarities alike cease.
Proposed withdrawal or Lincoln,
9t. Louis, SepL 2, 1804.—A call is
being privately circulated for a mass
convention at Cincinnati on the 28th of
this month, with the design of bringing
sufficient pressure to bear to secure the
withdrawal ofLincoln and Fremont and
the nomination of a consolidated ticket
The call is without signature, hut the
movement is understood to be in the

Trouble In the Lincoln Camp.
Buffalo, Sept. 3. —The democratic
of this city says that a petition is now in
circulation among the German republi
cans here aqd is receiving's great many
signatures, praying .that A. Lincoln
Withdraw from the Presidential contest
And allow the nomination of somebody
who will have some chance of election.
The joke of the thing is that the petition,
it is said, is under the special charge of
Mr. Julius Voitriede, editor of the Tele
graph, the German Lincoln paper of
thlscity. Lincoln stock is at a low ebb
among our German fellow citizens.
Rev. Doctor Oheever on Lincoln.
: Dr. Cheever writes in the Independ
ent that “After the slaughter of (hun
dreds of thousands of our citizens, with
the corresponding frightful desolation
and demoralization of four years' war,
and a debt of two thousand millions of
dollars, we are, in all other > respects,
jUBt where we were when Mr. Lincoln
began his career.” And "that’s what’s
the matter,” as the "Rev. Mr. Beecher
once remarked in a political speech from
his pulpit.
