We call again on the Waterman and all other
papers that published the forgeres in relation to
MI. Brney, to insert the real letter, and the facts
as they are.
1t is either the part of coward or knave, to
refuse to rectfy any thing that has been fairly
proved to be false.
Next week we shall publish a tract containing a
full statement of the facts in the case

proving all things safe The price of lands is
proofof successful reform. The day you strike
off the bonds of slavery, experience and statistics
prove the prophecy of Thomas Jefferson, that
the ratio Of the increase of the blacks upon Civ
en- basis, diminshes, compared with the increase
of slavery; whilst the influx of white immigration
swallows up the great mass of the African race,
IN the progress and civilization of the more en-
ergetlc white. Amalgamaton of the two races,
so atfectedly dreaded by some pro-savery men,
is far less in the free than in the slave States this
all men know from observation; what little re-
Election would have enabled them, a priOri to
have determined Many of the more faithful
and industrious slaves, may be employed by their
quondam masters, whilst the idle and vicious
must suffer the consequences of their folly. Steal
ing will not increase, as some argue, but be di-
minshed, for vigilance will be more active, and
punishment more certain and severe---Let can
didates be started in alltAe counties in fdUor of
contention, and run again and again, till victo-
ry shall perch on the standard of the frce.---
Whether emancipation be remote or immediate,
regard must be had to the rights of owners the
habits of the DID, and the general good feeling of
the people To those who cry out forever what
shall be done with the freed slaves it will occur
that upon this plan, no more will be left among us
than we shall absolutely need, for we have every
reason to suppose, that many of the opponents Of
the movement, will leave US before its consumma-
tion taking their slaves with them and the
State ought not to, if she could, at once deprive
herself of the slave laborers now here.
Then let us, having no regard to the clamors
Of the ultras of the North or the South, move on
mistaken in GUS purpose, to the glorious end.
Shall sensible men be forever deluded by the sill
ly cry, of 'abolitonists! Is this not becoming
not only ridiculous, but contemplate Can you
not see that many base demagogues have been
crying out wof,whilst they were playing the trait
or to their party and the country, for personal
elevation! Is it not time that some sense of re-
turning justice should revive in your bosoms, and
that you should cease to denouce those who in
defeat do not forget their integrity, and who,
though fallen, do not despair of the Republic7
Washington, Jefferson and Madison and the
great founders of the republic are my standard
bearers, Liberty and Union is my motto New
Ier yet has a KentucIian deserted his countrys
standard, and fled the field Shall be the first
to prove recreant to the sentiment which should
ever be uppermost in the bosoms of the gallant
and the free, when danger, no matter whether of
the sword, or more damning despotism threatens
his native land

The Post Office Department-k does
seem surprising that while the Secreta-
ries report from four to six millions as the
annual expenditures for The support Of
the army aud navy, withou, any fear that
The extravaganza of The appropriations
should be condemned or any questions
asked asked as to The cui como Of this
outlay for military purposes, if The ex-
pendlures of the Post Office Depart
ment excced:ils receipts by few thou
sands, the Post Master General feels it 10
be bis duty to. suggest some mode by
which this loss may be made up to the
treasury. For what reason we ask again.
Is The facility of communication between
all quarters of the republic less necessary
to It's security, or to The comfort and con-
venience of The people, than ain army: or
a navy? Or can the latter be made
useful or effective without The advantage
of The former? And if not, why should
these be kept up by heavy appropriations
made without n murmur, aud charged 10
The general expenses Of the government,
while this is considered as mailer for
the support of which The government
should not be called upon to expend a
cent?

CHICAGO, H., Sept. 4, ls45
Strides Of the West--Herr alexander and his skill.
Well-here am in the "prairie city" of the west
and city, il is too, that surprises every one who
visits il. Only think OF place like this, growing
up in the wild prairie, in the short space Of ten years.
Il now contains over twelve thousand inhabitants,
and is certainly the most business-looking place
west of Buffalo. 1t has nothing, however, Of pic
turesqueness about it, for it is built upon level pra
RE, at the point where the Chicago river smpties
into the lake. 1t is, however, laid out with regu-
larity, with wide streets and good plank side walks
and really has some fine houses On the west, you
the boundless prairie, stretching as far as the
eye can reach, interspersed with little wooded
slets, with pretty farm houses peeping from their
friendly shelter On the east is the grand expanse
of Lake Michigan, with its bright sanded shore,
and clear blue waters. The harbor, here, is ex-
cellent one; indeed, the best the lake, and is
crowded now with steamers and shipping. You
can have idea of the amount of trade at this
point. To see the streets crowded with wagons OF
wheat-the vessels loading from the warehouses,
and the constant stream of travellers coming and
gong IN crowds on every steamer, weuld surprise
even ycu. In fact, II seems that the place must
have grown up by magic-that no human agency
could, In so short space, accomplish so great a
change.
BY the way, speaking of magic, puts me in mind
OF Herr Alexander, the great German magician,
about whom have heard so much through tho
southern press. He has been in this city for week
past, exhibiting his almost supernatural feats OF
dlablene | have never seen anything at all APP
preaching the wonderful skill with which ne per-
forms his feats He TO do just what he pleases
TO set at naught all the laws OF nature-havlng al
most control over the minds of his audience. /
have seen all the most celebrated jugglers
who have hitherto visited our country, but Herr
Alexander ls not to be cassed with these Besides
being man OF finished education, he perfect
gentleman in his manners, with prepossessing APP
pearance, and the finest eyes / ever beheld. He
evidently regards his profession as science, and
seems much delighted with his experiments as
any one else. | was informed to-day by gentle
man of this city, to whom Herr Alexander brought
letters, that he to this country with the high
eat testimonials TO his chara :ter and recon-
mending him to the confidence of the American
people man every way worthy Of their patron
age. But you will see him for yourself for hear
he is soon to be in New York Let me bespeak
Tor him IN advance your favorable notice.
While | am writing | must not forget to say to
you that should you make this strip of the Lakes"
to secure room on board the steamer Nile, Capt.
Van Allen. This is the pleasantest and safest boat
on the Lakes--quiet in motcn-and always clean
and neat In all her appointments | am just about
taking trip to the celebrated Rock river country,
and will try and write you from Galena.

Mr.. BENEFIT
You have doubtless, seen in the Spirit of the Times
during the last twelve months, a series OF sketches
signed &c. de L." purporting to be extracts from
the writer's journal, kept by him while on service IN
Florida. The writer, II can easily be seen, belongs
10 the Sd Regiment of Infantry from the continual
glorliicaton which he bestows upon that regiment,
and suppose few who know him have failed to re-
cognlze Lieut.. II. under his assumed de plume.
My object Is not 10 criticize these extracts but to
call attention to article in the Spirit of the Times
of August 23d, in which the writer claims for the
9th Regiment of Infantry the credit of having many
time and Off gone over the ground in the vicinity
of the " Ocklockonee" river, Tin Middle Florida)
before the Sd Regiment had entered Florida or even
suspected they would be ordered there That all
this is true is well known TO the Army at large, and
ought TO have been known to Lieut.. H.; but the
claimant OF justice to the gallant 6th (Which saw
more hard service than any other two regiments ever
in Florida) has omitted to state that Tin addition to
the scouts on the " Ocklockonee" he has enumera-
ted) five companies OF that regiment, IN conjunction
with several companies of the LIST Regiment of Infan-
try, (he whole under command OF Col. Davenport
OF the lsD secuted thoroughly, the country'both
east and west of the " Ocklockonee" in February,
1910 this last, also, before the Sd Infantry had en-
tered Florida The spirit which has led c. de l..
to gonty his own regiment good one, but he is
old enough both In years and rank, to know that he
should not be guilty OF injustice 10 other regiments,
while upholdlng the merits of his own which, by
the way, is too well known and gallant corps to
require any such proceeding, as its merits OF the
highest order and 1t will, doubt, add to the lau
reIs IL already possesses, others gathered in Texas
(where 1t now is) provided il has chance. These
remarks due, in Justice both to the 9th and lst
Regiments OF Infantry, the sketches, (which have
called them forth, have been so widely circulated,
and you WILL no doubt, give them place in your
widely disseminated journal. u. s. A.
