Lincoln's Calculations.

The ItcayuRe, in an article showing
up the a%bsurdities of Lincoln's MESSAGE
calculations, says:
On these principles the expenditure
of the North, during Mr.. Lincoln's war.
cannot cost the people Of the Northern
States less than $3.50, 100000 per an
mum. For the period Of asevcn wears
war; this would be $2,663, 500, 600,
which is $500, 000, 900 morethan all the
revenues which have been collected by
the Federal Government fran all sour
ces whatsoever, including he proceeds
of all public loans and Treasury notes.
from the beginning of the Government
In 1889 to the Both Of june, 1861. The
sum is greater by nearlya IHousaad
Millions Of Dollars than al the money,
which the Government has nceived fromI
all sources whatever, excessive of wha
1t has borrowed, from tie first day #
its existence. I

Young Hen, TO the Rescue !

The proclamation OF the president. and the
general order from the secretary Of war, both
Of which VT published last week. sufficiently
indicate the urgent necessity for more troops

or offensive operations. Now is the time fol
oh who love their country to be up and do
ing. Especially is this call urgent upon the
YoUNG Ms OF our Countrywide bone and
muscle Of tbs l.nd-to step forth and stay
the hand of the RUTH, IS rebel who would
take from US our country, our Institutions
and al We hold dear.
Young men Of Caledonia, there is now an
opportunity 10 enlist in a Zouave company
now being formed in this place. Men of the
right stamp will find this an excellent oppor-
tun;ty to join the most efficient corps in the
service. There is no other drill so pleasing
or exciting, no uniform So comfortable, and
no tactics so efficient OF valuable as the
Zouaye.
The national and state governments are
Offering great inducements for men to enlist
The recent act act Of Congress raises the pay
of soldiers to Sl3 per month. besides uni
forms and rations SO that with the S. pei
month provided by the state, Vermonters will
get so per month. besides this, each sol,
der who receives an honorable discharge
from service viii also receive a bounty of
800, y cotcmporary justly remarks that
there i no army in the world so well paid
led and clothed, a, ours. rs matter Of
bo'nesr' y"on5 n.en out Of employ cannot
do better than enlist, for the trades are not
numerous al which man can clear $40 a

" BE Of One Mind"

To tie Freemen Of Ly"(on
Election day is soon at hand. \ day when
the freemen Of Lyndon. in common with
those of other towns in the state. are to
choose officers to govern and control the po-
litical matters of our commonwealth When
We are to exercise our right OF suffrage IN our
county and town elections. And it becomes
US as freemen, as individual supporters and
defenders Of the government Of our country
to "be of one mind" at the hour of our coun-
try's peril There are no party questions to
cause divisions in the feelings and acts of the
North,-no political differences to be asita-
ted at the coming election. Shall the govern
ment and the heaven-born institutions Of
Liberty and Justice be maintained and per
petuatcd? is the only question of import
ance at the present hour The patriotic re-
sonse, our Government must triumph issues
from the lips Of every freeman worthy of the
name; and no party or political intrigue.
should be allowed to counteract in the least
the generosity and harmony of feeling now
so generally manifest. Let the freemcn of
Lyndon then, without regard to former poit-
ical differences, be united in the choice of Of
fcers at the approaching election. Let there
be but one voice go out from the people on
that day: Every mans patriot. and the pa
rtiotism and wisdom of the town was render
cd emphatic in the union of sympathy and
effort manifest Exhibit to the sympathiz-
ers with the rebellion, if there are any such
among Us, that Sin Union there is strengths"
and that Union shall not be wanting in this
time Of all others in our country's history
when it is most needed
We hope, therefore, that we may have but
one mind, one ticket, and one party (Union)
at the polls next Tuesday. Exhibit Union
spirit, select Union men, and elect them u
unanimously by Union votes-should he the
motto Of every freeman of Lyndon.
