“Ah.” said Downie, “that looks well for

Clergymen Asking Eremptianfrsm M‘a Drn/t.
~AfIEP the adjournment of the recent
session ofthe Episcopal Diocesan Conven
tion of New Jersey‘, 11 large number of the
clerical and lay members met and adapted
resolutions claiming exemption for clergy
men from the drafit. on the ground that
they are “unable to’ bear” the expense of
procuring substitutes. and that military
duty is "inconsistent with their office and
vows." These resolutions were intended
for effect an Congress. previous to the pas
sage of the new enrollment bill. The. pro
testing clergymen have now no choice but
to serve in person or buy substitutes. like.
the rest of the people. Resolutions of this
character inevitably call to mind the fa
mous fighting manifesto of the “3,000 cler
gymen” who have gone into history in a
lump as one of} to causes of the war; and
also the numero 5 instances in which cler
gymeh have sh wn not only a belligerent

to heighten the sanguinary and vindictive
character of the war‘ is entitled to respect.-
l’ul consideration and kindly judgment.—
The true course—but that ebuld never have
been expected from {radical Congress
would have been to exempt all clergyman
who could conscientiously say that they had
not helped to get up the war. or to carry it
on, but had confined themselves strictly to
the legitimate duties” of their oflice.
Liberty ofi the Pram—The circulation of
the Cincinnati Enquirer in the State of
Kentucky was last week suppressed by or

Now. we learn the Chicago Times has also

Gzntlcmen} Your note is hciore me, and
with plensure I comply with your request.
There is always danger ofa civil war among
a free people resulting in the overthrow of
liberty; and I do not believe that. mere
force can restore peace, or preserve tth- ;
nion. In my humble judgmentqwisdom‘
and patriotism alike demand an armistice; l
and I believe that a «station of hastilitics
would result in an honorable and a happy '
peace. I ‘ i
An armi~tice is an agreed suspension of
hastilxties'hetween belligerentslor a spec?
lied time, and for a given purpose. In wars
between ciwlizetl nations an armistice al~t
ways precedes peace, though sometimes re I
sorted to for other purpnsoe. Xone but
barbarian pow'ers pursue hostilities, teen:
termination; and extermination o com~ l‘

Say to our countrymen of the South :—-
"Let us reason together. Your homes are

by of your noblest snns’ have perished on
the field of battle. and suqh aims. is the ease
with us. We are countrymen and we have

of battle, ye are proud of each others deeds.
We honor‘the names of Lee, ofSidney John

M'Clellen'. of Grant and of Sedg’wick. Let
us talk together and call back the sacred

framed thegreat‘Constitution. ,
Reason is the attribute of the Gods-war

assemble Around the council fire. and for

and smoke the calnmet of peace."
In a word, let the result at Richmond be
what it may. let us declare in favor of an
'ermietice of sixty days. We can make the
proposition with honor, because it would be

AN IMMEDIATE PEACE. \
Our contemporary, the Commercial, yes
terday propounded ten: the following poser:
“This, we perceive. is the cry ot the
Demoorntic press belonging to the copper
head variety, which description embraces
our local organ. 'We Would be glad to be
informed just how an ‘imuiedinte peace’
can be obtained. If we can see it, we most
-certninly shall be for it, as an incalculuble
blessing.”
_ Nnt being in power. it is not the‘business
of the Democracy to propose plans for peace
or mu, heeflu-te the party in‘-Possession, tor
the Government seem detepreined to pro
long hostilities. and not brfirg them to a
termination. Give us power and‘ we will
soon make blood-letting cease; at least we
would exhaust eVery effort for its attain
ment. The means we would use are sim
ple, but they would: be etl‘eetive. But the
present Administration and its party re-]
quire no peace. Have they, since hostili
ues began, done one single not calculated
to secure peace? Have not all their acts,
proclamations and speeches, aimed at the i
subjugation of the,Southern pebple. instead
of crushing the leading rebels,- un‘d has the
Administration. in one single instance. in
timated a desire for peace. except upon
such terms as the Southern peOple. could
not. and are not expected to accept? If
they would free their negroes, as Mr. Lin
cnlu proclaimed, they might return to the
Union; but that mountebnnk knew that
u‘ich a degrading proposition Would only
make the rebels more united. The mere
fact of the Administration refusingto let'
Alexander Stephens, Vice President of the
Southern rebel Confederacy. deliver his
message. and its lyitig at‘tcrwnrd'z. regarding
the nature of lllS intended interview, was
and is proofeulficient to show that its poli
cy has been to prolong hostilities and not
bring about an immediate. or airy other
sort of speedy pence. ‘We believe that we
could name half a dozen of men, North
and South. who. “permitted. could secure
‘1: satisfactory peace in twenty-four hours.
‘ We do not mean that their labors woul be
acceptable to the leaders ofextreme A oli
\'-\nisni nor of extreme eecossionism ; but
they would be to nine-tenths of the people
of the entiro‘country. But a»: long as the
two extremesnrhieh produced this qonflict.
are in pner, it is not likely that peace
will enter into their deliberation. The
first step towurdsuttuining peace is the get
ating rid of our present imbecile, deceitful
and corrupt Administ mtion.——l’du&wy J’osl.
SOLDIERS VOTING.
The L'annster Examintr, n shoddy organ.
lsays "the Copperhen‘ds of Berks county are
lelectionecring against the constitutional

lthe ground tlmt there are nr'yro soldiers,

lthm-e is any truth in the assertio of th-it

{assertion that,-—o‘~lmther constltu ionnl or
‘not. it' Lincoln need's votes to elect him. he
will use the negrocs or anybody elSe who

}their ballots for him. The frauds used in
the election lust full in this State alone—-
not to mention the stupendous untrue: in
letrylnnd and other States—are sufficient
‘to demonstmte IQ a certainty that every
negro in the army at this time. or who may
I be hereafter enlisted, will be allOWed a vote
' the same as white men.

Every Democrat desires that the soldiers

to the right,ot‘ negroes voting and .to the
lholding ot‘ the ballot-box‘ by one political
lpmty alone, be but. echoes the sentiment
of the soldiers themselves. who are known
to be in favor of even' and exact justzce to
all the candidates whom the pawl: put
forward. It is not out of regard for the
rights of the soldier that the shoddy party
,desire the Constitution amended so as to
give them the right of. gum-age. It is be’
cause they see in it nehnnce to commit the
most stupendous fraud: on the ballot-box
undetectedhjet the soldiers—the rank
and file—conduct their elections, and not
