The War.
The war news of the past week securs to
be of an uninUreating character. The plan
of taking Richpiond and Atlanta by direct
attacks Reims to be abandoned. At both
these places the rebels seem to be now rath
er taking the offensive. We should not be
surprised to find the rebels making some
flank movements'' that will raise the seige
of both these places. Admiral Farragut is
attacking Ft. Morgan at the mouth of Mobile
bay. The Rebel vessel Tallahassee, has cap
tured several more \essels. The late inva
ders of the state are making a safe retreat
down the Shenandoa valley. A band of
guerrillas lately made their appearance
at Arlington heights near Washington, and
captured several Federal Cavalry.
Gen. Burnside, the man who issued the
famous order No 10—"squelching copper
beads," for denouncing which, as Tyranical,
Vallandigham was banished, has hitnseu
been squelclud and banished to Rhode Island.
It seems that his conduct at the late Peters
burg massacre does not meet the approval of
hi 6 sup riors. The nigger division under
his command, instead of making themselves
the great heroes of the war made a most dis
astrous failure. Burney is dismissed because
be canHOt make a " w histle out of a pig s
tail.''

Organize ! I i
The necessity fur a thorough organization
of the Democratic party was never more ap
parent than at this time. If the country is
saved from utter final dissolution and ruin,
if humane liberty is preserved for ourselves
and posterity ; if this tide of fraud peculation
and corouption which is now eating out the (
▼ery heart and vitals of ot>r government is
' stayed ;if peace shall again smile upon the j
land, ana a cruel, devastating, barbarous;
and bloody warfare shall ever cease ; if our j
hopes and destinies shall be wrenched from ,
the inrare clutcu of a heathenish; despotic buf
foon and idiot; if, we say, these objects are
attained, if must be by an immediate and
thorough organization of the Democratic
elements of opposition. The great ordeal]
w ill soon be upon us. A short, sharp and
decisiva campaignist now about to *pen. —
But about twelve weeks now remains before,
the most oventful day in the of a
great nation. That day will probably settle,
forever, the question whether in America,,
free government, founded on the will and
consent of the govorend, is a failure or not
Whether the patriotism, the wisdom he
trials and blood of our fathers have been
exerted and spent in vain, or not. In view ;
then, of the great interests at stake, of the '
great dangers that threaten them and of the j
struggle before we cannot too strongly j
urge upon our friends the necessity of organi
zation. Let clubs be organized in eveiy
town, in every nook and corner of the town.
Let no man neglect his duty but free'.y give
this time, his talents and his money toward
the accomplishment of the work to be done.
Let no man deem himself an unimportant
Mtcr in the tnatte/. An earnest effort
ou tt:* { art of the democrats in each town
ship would secure from five to twenty votes
for us which would otherwise be lost. This j
in the aggregate would give us at least 20.-
000 votes in the State, and assuming th'c two
panics now to be equal—a majority f..r Con
stitutional Union principles of 40,000 voles.
MATTERS of importance engaging our at
ter.tien this week, we defer paying our re
spects to the thing that travels behhid a
beet, until the rest. If then, we conclude
to waste ammunition on s-uch email game,
we may take a feather or two from his soar
ing wings.
WHY NOT.— A large number of Repuhii
nnn profe&B to disapprove of the course pur
sued by Mr. Lincoln ar.J his Administration '
in the prosecution of the War, a;.J who will
•til!, in all probability, vote for him i.l No
vember, We have heard men of this class
say :" I ara no h litionist. I want these
troubles compromised, so as to put an end to
the war and dratts in tho future. 1 am tired
of this war, tired of taxes, and tired of drafts.
We believe you are sincere, gentleuaer., n
what you say, but why not, since your p si
tion is the same, unite with those who tl ink
as you do, and elect some man to carry cut
your views, Lincoln will not. lie has de
clared that the abandonment of slavery is
the only terms that will be listened to for
peac! You Will be welcomed into the ranks
of those who desire Union and Peace; Why
not labor with them ?
WHO is for further prosecution of this war?
All who are getting rich out of it. and a3
many fools as there are left alive in the coun
try. After the experience we have had the
man who believes in the possibility of con
quering the South tsi fool indeed.—Ex.
<•-
TJIK success of Gen. Grant's flanking
is so great that Lincoln has felt
the necessity of calling into the field 5(0,000
store men—to be, we suppose, flnnhed into
eternity in the same ''glorious" way as the
millions who fcjve Veen sent before them.

KiIITOK DEMOCS.IT,
Sm : —ln your 'pa
per of 10th inst. you ask why, if the people
! of the north are so eager for war an i crush
| ing out the rebellion, we have to pay such
large sums for volunteers ? Why is con
j scription necessary ? This may be a mys te
! ry to you. living in so dark au 1 benighted a
part of the land—but up we goto
i church every Sabbath ; and get posted in
; political matters. Up here too, Mr. Editor,
wo have men of the *' rail grit." Long be
j fore the war broke out, they said : if those
| southern chaps did flare up, and give us*a
j chanoe at them, we wobld go in and give
j them such a drubbing, that when they got
j out of the scrape, they would'nt know them
■ selves or country. Some f the bravest of us
j said we would go in, if we had to wade in
: blood to our knees. But when the wai
broke out, we thought it too small an affair
I -
i lor us to trouble ourselves much about it,
but concluded to send down 75,000 of our
i '
boys, who, — being eager for the fray—went
in with enthusiasm. Well after having sev
eral littie affairs such as Bull run, we found
their ranks thinner] and Abraham calling for
300/ 00 more. We hardly understood tins;
but on asking our seers (preachers) why enr
ooys did not prevail, were told that: The
£ord was angry with us, because Abraham
hail not "proclaimed liberty to the captive," ,
and until this was dene cur sons would
continue to be beaten and e'airt. When tins I
c&tne to the ears of Abraham, lie immediate- I
ly issued his famous " emancipation procla >
mation"—and about the same time called 1
tor " 500,000 more. ' Well, the men and
tne proclamation fought on ; bat b >th to
gether did not prevail ! After marching and
countermarching, flanking and being flanked
we bn; ] our armies wasted, and Abraham
called tor " 30),0dd u ire." Tins rather as -
tonished us, a i<: we con uited < ut seeis (the
preacher?-) again. They told u-> tha' Gud j
had a controversy with this whole natien— ;
and is " determined to punish, us for our sins,
and thejsu s of our faibus, ha cause they dd
not commence this war, s toner,—an 1 that
Deity will not be satisfied with the blood of j
our children which has been sacrificed on I
the altar of their country—that the war will !
not end until some < f the best blood of the j
country is sacrificed. We again consult the j
oracles (preachers. )They Tel! us they have ;
discovered the very thing required—one j
that will answer a double purpose viz: a;
a better soldier, and better Llood for the j
sacrifice. Now the answer toy. r first in
quiry is plain—we waut a better quality of
blood than white men can furnish, and bet
ter soldiers than they make. Consequently
the great demand and rush now being made
for the belter article, has caused the high
prices. Do you tee it 7
Your second inquiry : " Why are we so
often called upon for new levies" is partly j
answered by the above viz . ha t er blood u 1
wanted as a sacrifice for our sins. Another j
reason i that when we exhaust all our flank |
movements on the rebels we have to resort
to ether means. Yu probably remember
pome years since, when they tried us on the j
Missouri compromise, how we took the un- >
dor ground Kail Road and run their niggers !
into Canada. If I understand the present I
strategy of the war, we are going into that I
again, We have men enough for work abuve j
ground, but recruits are wanted for the un !
dcr ground work. I know the Republicans |
complained of "Little Mac" fur usiug the i
Si-ade. but bis was only surface work. The I
present plan is to he low and dig deep.— i
Having answered your queries permit me !
to ask yon a question. The North had !
20,000,000 of men, and the South 8,000,000, j
when this war commenced. Why do we
now have to go on their *ide of the line to '
get men to whip- theui out 7
A SUBSCRIBER.

neigborhood of "A subscriber." —In reply to his
question ;wo should soy ; that our folks ingoing
south alter men, were in quest of "better blood," — 1
for tho sacrificial offering.
We do not believe however that our negro-worship
ping raicrs intend to allow the spilling of much
nitrger blood thit is too precious, with them, and is i
being saved for "miser gene tic" purposes. Tho ob- i
joct of the war, ns now declared, is '•theabaudkinintnt j
(Abolition) of slavery," The pmclauiation abolish- j
ing i iving turned out like the 'Bull against the
comet."—The army having f-i'ed t cat h nigger*, i
as well where they ain't, as whore they are. Ahra- ;
ham has concluded to bring to his aid in the Lu-i- I
nass every abfe Loiiiid white man of tho north. — j
And has allotted to each, the task " buying bog- j
ging' ,car.£scntir.g, or stealing a nigg-.,under joenal
tv of being drafted and led into a slaughter pea him- j
eif, by such accomplished butchers ns Popc.lJookor, j
Buraridt and the ' Beast." What he intends t> do
with his niggers alter he gets then judging fi m the
past, is to put them into the Royal Park, aronn l the ;
White J louse, to cut nigger aatiea, sing nigger songs
and otherwise entertain his royal highness Ahra- j
ham the ' Bo you sou it ?
—_*.
Why is the War CoNHX.reD.— No un- .
prejudiced citizen be he Republican or Dem
ocrat, can longer doubt as to the true answer
to this question. Jt is clearly developed in '
Lincoln's communication "to all to whom it
may concern.
It is because Lincoln Qares more for the ;
nkg no than for the white man, —prefers j
freeirg nkujsoe* to saying the lives of white

If we had a President who regarded the j
rights pnd interests of white men, North and
South, the war would in less than ten
days.

ic and the manufacturer are 'axed in a half a
dozen different ways, and to such an extent
that they can hardly provide themselves with
the necessaries of life ?
| In his inaugural message President Lin
; Coin saiu :
" I understand a proposed amendment to
tho Constitution (which amendment, howev
er, I have not teen) has passed Congress, to
1 the effect that the Federal Government shall
I never intefere with tho domestic institutioos
jof States, including that of persons held to
j service. To avoid misconstruction of what
, I have said I depart fr in uiy purpose—not
'. nrt to speak of particular amendments—so
far as to say that, holding such a provision
to now be implied constitutional law, I have
no objection to its being made expiess and
irrevocable."
It was in the same hour that Mr. Lincoln
said that he should soon have taken the
j inoat solemn oath to preserve, protect and
' i defend the' Constitution,
Mr. Lincoln, after indorsing every Aboli
tion measure which has been passed in Cuu
