The holieays being near at hand no paper will be issued from thte office next week. OF THE WAR. Ko changes in military affairs on the Poto mac have taken place during the past week. The army is said to have gone into winter quarters, thongh the last nights papers hint ed that a enhage would be made. Frtquent Cavalry skirmishes occur between the two armies. There has been some fighting in Gen. Grant's department, but no definite ac counts have been received as to the rwsult.— The news from Charleston published in the Richmond papers is that tour vessels the Ironsides and three monitors while attempt ing to Dasa the obstructions became entangled. The Ironsides will probably have to be aban doned. Two of the monitors were also badly disabled. If this prove true, it is the great est misfortune that has befallen "Uncle Sam's web foot', as the President elegantly denomi nates the navy. The Ironsides is the most formidable vessel in it, and in the hands of the rebela could be used very efficiently against the blockading fleet. The Chessapeake, which was captured a few daya since has been recaptured in 8.-it tiah waters. The captors however made good their escape. Another vessel trom Tex as bra been taken by similar means. THE CONSCRIPTION. The newa from Washington in relation to the conscription, is that the law will not be changed before the holiday recess, thus ne cesitating a brief postponement of the draft until after tha time fixed. Various opinio ion a seem to exist to the propriety of striking out the S3OO clause. Some being in favor of Striking it out entirely, others in favor of increasing the amount to SSOO or upwards and a third class for retaining it as it now stands. The grounds of exemption will piob ably be narrowed down, and the distinction of classes will no doubt he abolished. Let tba old chaps who have regarded themselves as secure stand from under. The younger class have stood one draft and there seems to be nothing unfair in passing the thing abound that all may have a chance in this grand Lot tery. THE COMMUTATION FEE AND VOL UNTEERING. There is a strong probability that the pres-1 ent Congress will abolish the three hundred dollar commutation provision in the Conscrip tion act. Provost-Marshal General FRY offi cially recommends that course, and Sena tor LANE has already introduced a bill in ac •ordance with hit wishes. The Democrats are pretty generally committed to vote for etriking out that clause from the law, and thsra will b enough Republicans to help them to do so. On the other hand, Mr. WIL SO* and a majority of the War Committee of the Senate wish to retain the commutation provision, not because it relievea the harsh ncss of the conscription for white men, but on sccouni of the fund it provides for the War Department with which to buy able bodied negroes in the border states to make eoldiers of. Another draft, with the c< m mutation fee, would probably yield enough money to rid Maryland, Delaware and Ken tacky of all ita able bodied male negroes, and thus help upset the "pecutiar institution" in those states. It is this glaring misuse of the fund, even more than the invidious distinction the com mutation makes between the rich and the poor, which will lead to its abolition. The object of the last Congress was to induce volunteering by the money thus obtained; hut the War Department, without the sligh test warrant of law, misused it to destroy slavery in the border states. In the meantime, volunteering progresses vsry slowly throughout the North. We doubt if the coming sth of Jan. will see one hundred thousand men under arms out of the three hundred thousand called for by the President. A draft seetne to be incvita ble—£x. y-?- A few months ago some of the wool lyheads said the Democrats ought to he mob bed oat, because they alleged, we had called this "an abolition war." The policy of their leaders has since been developed, and if we deserved mobbing then for calling it an abo lition war, what do their leaders now doseive tor making it one ? JC3C" The President wants the South to •wear to support his abolition and emanci pation proclamation as a conditio for coming back into the Union, and the war is to be waged until they are forced to do it If they would swear to support the Constitu tion they could not come. Now what is the Wat tor t The President's Plan of ConclJlatlou—Tlie Greased Cartridge Policy. Had President Lincoln exerted all Lis in genuity and taxed the ingenuity of his cab inet counselors to devise that insult to the Southern people which should be by them regarded as the most odious and maddening, he could have fallen on nothing better adapt ed to his purpose than the 6trange oath he has tendered them to support his proclama tion of emancipation, and all other proclama tions having reference to slaves which he may think fit to issue. Purporting to be an emollient, and put forth under the guise of an amnesty, it seeks out the sorest, the most in flamed, the most sensitive spot in the south ern mind, and applies to it a burning brand. It is a proposition which the South will feel that it cannot accept without a degree of voluntary self-degredation which every Southerner of spirit and character will regard as worse than death. It is idle for Mr. Lin. coin's apologist to prate about what may seem reasonable and just from the extreme abolition stand-point, through abolition eyes. When, a few years ago, the British came near losing a great portion of their Indian empire by compelling the Sepoys to use greased car tridges, it would have been entirely beside the purpose for a British statesman to have addresed to the British people an argument demonstrating the absurdity of the Sepoy prejudices. British soldiers, it is true, bit off the ends of the greased cartridges with as much unconcern as they would eat their ra tions. It would be possible to prove, on strict physiological grounds, that this practice was harmless to the body of a Sepoy as to that of a Britton, and, on grounds of Christian doctiine, that it could no more contaminate or imperil the soul of the one than of the other. But all such arguments would have been the sheerest trifling and impertinence, and no man having the slightest pretensions to statesmanship could have used them. "It is the imagination," said Napoleon once, " that rules the world." All great revolutionary movements are inspired aud dominated by ideas. Men engaged in a revo lotion are always in a state of mental exalta lion, which causes them to see the matters in contest through an ideal atmosphere. A slight tax upon tea, regarded on its prose side, was a petty question of threepence in the pocket of a colonist as weighed against the support of the public revenue, George the Third and Lord North, by refusing, in their blindness, to make allowance for the ideal views of the colonists which converted that tax into the symbol of tyrrany, convuls ed and dismembered the British empire.— Louis the Sixteenth was the mildest of French Sovereigns, and De Tocquevi'le says that monarchy never pressed so lightly on the people as at the outbreak of the revolution- Bnt the French mind has passed under the dominion of great idea*, and the old institu tions could no more control them than a flax en band can fetter flame. The exaltation of freltng which supplies impulse co revolution may be poetry or it may be madness, which ♦s a sort of diseased poetry—its character in this respect depends on the goodness of the cause ; but whether it inspire heroism or de monism, it is a thing to be managed rather than reasoned with. President Lincoln has shown himself utter, lv destitute of the statesmanlike tsct requi site for dealing with a great people in revolt ; he is as blind as was Philip the Second, of Spain, when he lost the Netherlands, Never, since the creation of man, has there been a people so led captive by their imaginations, so subject to the despotism of ideas, as the people of the South. Call their ideal griev ances prejudices, if jou will ; brand their ar d->r, their vehemence, their persistence as black and rampant treason; but, under every aspect in which their conduct can be viewed, the fact stands unshaken that they are a peo pie surrendered to their ideas. If Mr. Lin coln were a •tatesmar., if he were even a man of ordinary prudence and sagacity, he wou'd set the necessity of touching the peculiar wound of the South with as light a hand as possible. Instead of this be chafes and in flames it. Not strong enough himself, though wielding the whole power of the government, to resist the revolutionary exaltation and fa natic fervor of the abolitiomsts, how can he expect private citizens of the South to brave an eKaltation and fervor which, in that sec tion, is ail but unanimous ? If lie had stood firm against the abolition current he would have had a great majority of the northern people to keep him in countenance ; but who in the South would not scorn the men who could so degrade and humiliate himself as to take the abolition oath 1 We might ask, and in due time we shall ask, by rchat right Mr. Lincoln assumes to propose such an oath ? We, of course, know that he pretends to derive it from the par doning power; but this whimsical deduction is a fitter topic for derision than for serious argument. As he can offer a conditional par don, he claims that he can in pose any con ditions he pleases. The war power, which to every body's surprise, was found, after cohab itation with Mr. Lincoln, to contain the em bryo ot abolition, yields to a more pud'fo rival, which has strength to bring forth the full-grown progeny. The pardoning power becomes the most fruitful clause in the Con etitution, ODIJ like a Magdalen asylum, it dispenses its marvelous blessings only upon those who have gone through a certain course of preparation, by which they are constituted Candidates. Mr. Lincoln proposes to revolu tionize the whole South in value of the par doning power T Things which all previous expositors of the Constition have affirmed that the federal government cannot do at all can be done by the President because the courts have decided that he may ofFer a con ditional pardon ! If there is any lower deep of absurdity we may trust the sure instincts of President Lincoln to find it. If citizens are guilty of a crime, Mr. Lincoln claims that he has a right to pardon them, on condition that thev will sw*r to renounce the of free speech, which is sacredly guaranteed hy the Constitution. The pardoning power, like AARON'S rod swallows up every other provis ion of the instrument, which sprout forth as green twigs of emancipation. The ''war power" is obscured and eclipsed by its more radiant rival. The pardoning power fills the abolition aky with its effulgence like "Another mora, Riser, in mid-noon*" and the whole firmament glows with accum ulated splendor ! Suppose that, when the Quaker, Passmore Williamson, was lying in prison in Philadel phia, and Booth, the Wisconsin editor, was in the Philadelphia jail, President Buchanan had, in the exercise of the pardoning power, published a general proclamation of amnesty to all who had resisted the Fugitive Slave law, but as a condition of grace, had imposed the following oath, which, mutatis, mutandis is precisely the oath offered by President Lincoln: T, do solemnly swear in presence of Almighty God, that I will henceforth faith fully support, protect and defend the Consti tution of the United States and the Union of the States thereunder, and that 1 will in like manner, abide by, and faithfully support all acts of Congress passed with reference to fugitive slaves, so long and so far as not re pealed, modified, or held void by Congress or by decision of the Supreme court, and that I will in like manner abide by and faith fully support the Fugitive Slave At of 1850, and all other acts of Congress hereafter pass ed, having reference to fugitive slaves, so long and so far as not modified or declared void by decision of the Supreme Court. So help me God ! Suppose,we say, Mr. Buchanan had. under color of the pardoning power, < ffered this de grading insult to the abolitionists, we put it to any candid man if such an act of grace and amnesty would have inspired their greatful recognition in any other view then as a god send to ienrease their power over their fol lowers. Was there an abolitionist in the whole North who would not have spurned and justly spurned the gratuitous insult ? Would thev have admitted that Mr. Buchan an anv right to swear citizens to renounce a citizen's right to discuss, oppo-e, and attempt to procure the repeal oflaws which he disap preves or deems unconstitutional ? To gag freemen with such an oath under the pre tense of ofiering them pardon, is a refinement of harparity which had not been invented in 1858 Mr. Lincoln's at tempt to put his abo lition oath into the mouths of southerners is as impolitic as that would have been barbar ous,—is indeed the co6urnmatlon of impolicy, and pus the North ir the attitude of impo tence when a statesman would have bared its arm ot atrength.—A r . Y. World. BOARD OF ENROLLMENT. —CoI. Tate of the Columbia Co. Democrat in his last issue says : We again visited Troy, on Wednesday last, and looked in upon the Board of En rollment. They are indeed high-minded gen tlemanly officers, discharging their ardous duties impartially and to very general satis, faction. Mr. Commissioner GRIER, with whom many of our people are acquainted, is not only a superior gentleman, but a most efficient officer and has won universal respect and confidence. We are authorized by the Board to an nounce, that persons enrolled preparatory to the approaching Drift, not to report at head quarters until after the Draft takes place, for exemption, excepting those only who have been selected by Parent or Parents as the choice for their support, and that time is now limited until the 30th day of Decern ber. Mr. Fernando Wood, (N. Y.) submitted the following resolution in congress: lifsotccd, That the President be requested to appoint three Commissioners, who shall be empowered to open negotiations with the authorities at Richmond, to the end that this bloody, destructive and inhuman war 6hall cease, and the Union be restored npon terms of equity, fraternity and equality, under the Constitution. Mr. Washburne, (Til.) moved to lay the resolution on the table. Agreed to, by a vote of 98 yeas to 59 nays. The abolitionists do not want and will not permit a restoration. THE FRANKING PRIVILEG As the session of Congress has just commenced, it will be well for the public to bo reminded of an itn portant change in the franking privilege- Heretofore, as it will pe remembored, all letters to and from n.embers of Congress passed through the mails free of postage Now, however, it must be borne in mind that only the letters from a member of Con gress can pass free of postage. All corres pondence with an M. C. must be paul, as are all letters to a private individual. The re membrance cf this fact will save much delay in the transaction of business, both of a pub lic and private nature. The "Government,, pays the trans portation of soldiers to and from their places of residence, when thev nre sent home to vote the Abolition ticket. But when the corpse of a soldier is sent homo from the field or hospital' the friends have to pay the expenses, amounting to from one to two hundred dollars. This looks bad at first sight, but when wo reflect that a corpse can't vote, it is not so surprising after all. bloomsburg Democrat. Lincoln made one of his elo quent and characteristic speeches at Gettys burg, on being serenaded by a band, on the evening previous to the consecration. He said: "A man should say nothing unless has something to sav, and, as I have noth- ing to say, I will gay nothing." As Ar temns Ward would say, for the people who like such kind of speeches, this ia just the kind of a speech sneb people like. 1,500' 000 Democrats In the Free States. The Cincinnatti Enquirer gives some fig ures to show that with all the frauds, all the appliances of corruption, and all the intimida tion of power, civil and military nearly one million and a half of Democrats marched to the polls at the late elections, and recorded their votes against the poliey of the Adminis tration. Those who think that the Demo cratic organization is now powerless, will be itstructod by perusing the following table of the votes as given at the State elections tn 1863: States. Dem. Votes. Maine 51.000 New Hampshire 40,000 Vermont 12,000 Connecticut 40.000 Rhode Island 10,000 Massachusetts 35,000 Total for New England 188.000 New York 284 000 New Jersey 60,000 Pennsylvania 253,000 Ohio 177.000 Indiana 126.000 Illinois 140,000 Michigan 60,000 Wisconsin 50,000 I"wa 55,000 Minnesota 12000 California 50,000 Oregon 6,000 Kansas 8.000 Grand Total 1,488,000 So in the Free States alone there are one million and a half of Democrats at the close of 1863. What a glorious figure? This is 100,'> 00 more votes than Mr. Douglas got in all the States—Northern and Southern in 1860,. What Democrat can be discouraged st such good progress under the terrible pressure of the last three years ? Only think of it—nearly 200,000 Democrats in New England, which we have been inclined to give over entirely to the Ab< litionists; n early 300 000 in the Empire stated, and more than 300 000 in New Jersey and Pennsylvania: 200,000 m Ohio, and 250,000 in Indiana and Illinois. The other Western Staie-s contribute nearly a quarter of a million mo e. making up the grand total in the free State to oi.e million and a hulf\ Surely this i 6 a power in ths land not to be sneered at, im peached, or in any way disregarded, whatev er hotheaded partisans may say. It is a party that has worked persistently—not as a party, but as patriots—to restore the country—and it will not be without a powerful and influen tial voice in this matter. The au.urises now are that the practical restoration of the Un ion may not be far off. And this fact should I induce all good conversative me to renew their energies and be frequent in their conn sels so that we may not shipwreck as we seetn nearer the haven of safety—the old Constitution and the restored Union. Message Brevities. "The policy of emancipation, and of em ploying black soldiers, gave to the future a new aspect." Rather a black aspect. "As a matter of civil administration, the government had no lazcjul power to effect emancipation in any State and for a long time it bad been hoped that the rebelion could be repressed without resorting to it as a military measure," For how long a time, "fifty years" or only since the irrepressiblo conflict was proclaim ed. Could not the Union be restored in two months without emancipation'? "Maryland and Missouri, neither of which three years ago would tolerate any restraint upon the extension of slavery into new terri tones, only dispute now as t the best mode of removing it within their own limits." That is refreshing. The dispute I suppose is like the one the people of Maryland recent ly had with arbitrary power over the ballot box. Of those who were slaves at the beginning of the rebelion, full one hundred thousand are now in the United States military service, (meal tubs,) thus giving the double advan tage "f taKing so much labor from the insur gent cause." Only they were mostly taken from Miry land and loyal states instead of insurgents. "No servile insurrection or tendency to vi olence or cruelty has marked the measures of euiancvpation and arming the blacks." Then what is, "tendency to violence or cru elty." Is not the whole cruelty and misery of the war the result of i t. "The anual elections following are highly encouraging to those whose official duly it is to bear the country through this great trial." So was the election at Youngwomanstown encouraging to old Joe Ritner. "On examination of this proclamation it will appear (as is believed) that nothing is attempted beyond what is justified by the Constitution." The Constitution then justifies making men swear to liberate all the negroos. "If it be proper to require, as a test of ad mission to the political body, an oath of alle. giance to the United Slates and to the Union under it, why not also to the laws and proc lamations in regard to slavery." Sure enough, and why not make them swear not to chew tobacco or drink whiskey also. "I may add, at this point, that while I re main n my present position I shall not at tempt to retract or modify the emancipali n proclamation, nor shall I return to slavery any person who is free by the terms of that proclamation, or by any of the acts of Con gress." Decisions of the Supreme Court and the Constitution to the contrary notwithstanding. Is it not plain, that this administration is working tor emancipation and that they will not reatore the Union wit hoot tt.— Sunbury Demnrrat. STAND BY YOUR PARTY PAPERS. We appropriate fr the benefit of our read ers the following very sensible remarks from thd Des Moines Slatesman, and commend them to the careful perusal of every intelli gent Democrat : " A 6olrmnduty, but imperfectly discharg ed, devolves on Democrats, to stand by their papers, in the general wreck of personal and political rights, about all the liberty tnat the citizens retains is the privilege ol reading Democratic papers and abolition taxes. How long he will enjoy the first is uncertain His lease of the last will never be disturbed. Bat while he retains the privelege of reading the paper of his choice, he owes to to him self, to the editor, his party, and hi* country, to give such paper a living support. "Without Government or State, and, in many instances, County patronage, prescribed by an intolerant party, confronted by a se cret organization, whose only purpose is to pulldown the Democratic party, and hunted by the paid miuions of power, Democratic publishers have nothing to rely upon but their own energy and the fidelity and liberal ity of their political friends. " Without newspapers, the Democracy would be withont an orginzation and at the mercy of theit enemies With newspapers they cau preserve their organization, and re gain both their political ascendency and their liberties. " It is a fact which cannot be successfully controverted, that Republicans give a more zealous support to their party organs, than do Democrats. Just so long as this state of things continues, the ballot box will be powerless for our relief. The press is a po tent engine for shaping the opinions of a pen pie and controlling the destinies of a coun try : and it would be well if the democracy learns this fact in tune to save their party and the government. No fact is clearer to the mind of an attentive observer, than that we lost the State by extraordinary zeal dis played in giving circulation to Republican papers and the prevailing apathy of D mo crats in sustaining and enlarging the circula tion of Democratic papers and documents Ii is this Zeal on the ooe hand and apathy |or the other, that has continued radicalism in power. It will continue in power until Democrats learn to feel and take an interest in the circulation of the Democratic papers. ******* " A new year is about to dawn up >n us and it is a good time to renew your Demo cratic faith and labor for the great cause.— Send for the paper, if you are not already reciveing it, and see that your ueighbor does likewise.

Giving Them Hope. Said a merchant of Philadelphia, to a De mocrat, who expressed his intention to vote for Curtin, "I am surprised at your course, for the Republican party is sending lie country to the devil as fast as it can go,"— "That," replied the othe', " is just why I vote for Cnrtin. The people are mad, and they will never come to their senses until the ruin is complete. The sooner the final, inevitable crash comes the better. Let us give the usurpers the power with which they are sure to destroy themselves." FRED. DOUGLAS AND THE PRESIDENT. —The Anti Slavery Convention held in Philadelphia last week was addressed by Fred. Douglas, who evidently feels himself now to be of con sequence, and why shouldn't be? From the Tribune's report of his speech we clip the following . "He detailed a visit he had paid to Presis dent Lincoln. Men had waited in the ante chamber for days, but the moment his card was sent in the usher returned with an invi tation to walk up. Some office beggar near by,remarked :" 1 knew it would he so. He's a nigger, that's enough." Mr. Douglass a-k ed the audience to imagine how the President received him, a colored man. " Why. pre cisely,,' said he, "as one gentleman receives another." Alluding to the President's he'ght and length of limb, he remarked that he was 41 spread about the room in the way unusua ly ascribed to him," and as ho entered, con - menced rising, and "continued to rise." A cordial shaking of hands ensued." HIGH PTICES or PRINTING-PAPER. — The New York wholesale dealers were celling an ordinary article of printing paper, a few days since, at twenty cents per pound—just double the price for which the article 6old three years ago, This exorbitant price is the re sult tna'nfy of a scarcity of the raw material, and increased cost of manufacture. It is not probable that we shall see, in ma ny years to come, a return of the old cheap prices. Under these circumtances there is no alternative for country newspaper publishers but to follow the example of their city co temporaries, in an advance ot rates to subscri bera. At the present prices of paper, ink, la bor, 4c., no country paper can sustain itself at a less subscription price thn $2 a year.— Middletown Merc r y, -5 JEST" A man came into a prin ting office to beg a paper. 44 Because." he Baid, 44 we like to read the newspapers very much, but I our neighbors arc all too stingy to take one."
