Needless suffering.

There seems to be no limit to the suffer
ings, modification. delay, and Inconvenience
caused TO the volunteers by the incompe'
tence and inefficiencY os regimental officers,
aided by the arrant rascalty OF contractors.
From almost every camp and barracks
come to us grevous complaints of hungry,
ill-clothed men, who are broken down in
body, though not in spirit, by causes tor
which there is not the shadow of an excuse.
Who can expect perfect discipline, or even
a tolerable degree of order among soldiers,
who have abandoned comfortable homes
and lucrative occupations. to meet with
only neglect aud the most disgusting foodI
1t is all well to talk about soldiers
fare'-the very cause of complaint is that
these men do not get soldiers fare. II they
had it they would be satisfied. II they
were fed and clothed half as well as the
regular troops they would be cheerful under
any unavoidable hardship. But there is no
a company in the regular army whos'
comfort is not ten fold greater than that o
many of our volunteers.

Tcriss In our Midst.

It is an uDdeniable fact that there are
in this city, men who sympathize with the
South Carolina rebels in their disloyalty TO
the Government, and rejoice at their sue
cess in having driven Major Anderson and
his gallant men from Fort Sumter We
make the announcement with pain and hu-
initiation. We add with pleasure, howey-
err, that their number is small, and that
there is only here and there a person so
abandoned to all sense of shame, as to for
get, or at least to ignore, the duty that
he owes to the country in its present crisis.
No man with heart in the right place,
or drop of patriotic blood in his veins,
can hesitate single moment as to the
proper course for linn to pursue. Strip
ped of all verbiage, the simple questions for
him to consider are: Shall the Govern
ment be sustained in its enforcement of
the laws and shall the Constitution be
maintained inriolate, or shall the Govern
ment be broken up and the laws Of the land
be trampled under foot? These are the
only issues involved in the present contest.
For Our part, We have no sympathy or
respect for these men, to whom we have
alluded, as in league With the traitors who
have raised their hands to strike a fell
blow at the perpetuity Of our Government
and it's institutions. Though jeff Davis
and his fellow conspirators in the Confed-
crate States, as they are called. are I'll
subjects for the gallows and deserve hang
ing higher than ever Haman was hung
yet hemp can not be stretched to any bet
ter advantage than it can be right here ii
the city of Watertown. It gives us ne
pleasure to say these things Of neig hbor
who in the ordinary walks of life are re
spectsd citizens and justly esteemed in th'
community in which they live. But W
feel that in this matter they are great,
at fault; that they are committing gros
outrage upon the feelings of all good an
loyal citizens; that they are conspirator
against the Government and deserve to b
Kissed and scorned as were the Tories i
revolutionary times, of whom they are bu
counterparts; and that public attention
SD uld be called to them so that they ma
be marked and held up to the reprobatio
of the people at large.

New Route TO Pixies Peak.

A friend has sent US copy of the Re
port and map of the Superintendent and
Engineer of the Smoky Hill Expedition"
which we have examined with considera-
BILE care. The route spoken of starts at
Leavenwortb. Kansas, and proves by actu-
al measurement to be at least one hundred
miles shorter than the Platte route and is
said to be in all respects far preferable to
it as regards comfort and convenience.
We see it stated that hereafter Govern
ment intends to follow it with their troops
and trains to New Mexico and tho South
Western Forts some two hundred and ff-
old road by Kansas city and the Arkansas
River. AS Leavenworth is prominent
trading point and her market is always
supplied with every thing adapted to the
wants of miners, we expect to hear That a
good share of the emigration to Pike $
Peak hereafter is over the new route ANY
one wishing to examine the map, or learn
anything further about it, can do so BY
calling at our office.

A Distinction.

1t is not improbable shat some persons
think that the question between the North
and South, which is to be decided by put
ting down the rebellion, is simply moral
one, relating to slavery. This is great
error, Really the government has moth
ing to do with abstract moral questions
1t is simply question of civil polity, and
the most fundamental of all questions
namely, shall the laws be obeyed, or (Which
is the same, shall we have any govern
ment? Simply because they have lost
the control, of the government, and the
majority of the people did not vote for the
man whom they wished for President, and
does not agree with them as to what is
the best policy, they have rebelled and
set up another government. To submit to
this would be to inaugurate universal an
archy and throw all the elements of which
the nation ia composed into tie most cha
otto state, subjected only to the law of
might, which must result 10 the destruc
zion of all that is valuable to humanity
The principle of the rebellion is to submit
10 government and law only when they
@iii work out our desires and purposes,
'and rebel the moment the majority does
not Please US. Surely no argument is
necessary to demonstrate that such a ba-
SIS OF conduct is as absurd and impractical
bic as 1t is impious and subversive of all
good Who are these men, that, being
minority, they should arrogate to them-
selves the privilege to nullify the constitu-
ton and laws, and assume to control the
nation, or dash it into fragments? Are
they so much our SUI errors that we should
submit to them, as to God? or, rather is
not their well known character such that
they should be resisted. as the ID?

INFAMY OF SOUTHERN SENATOR.

while he was Senator in the Federal
Congress at Washington, he earnestly dis
suaded certain southern officers =

commissions in the United States no.

and thus portion of the navy might be

There is no functionary in anv GOV

guilty of conduct like this. This fellow

Data IN his mouth to support the Constitu-

overthrow that Constitution. but eould ad.

honorable conduct, and the most Infamous

War! war!! War!

The People are attacked A savage
blow has been struck at the Federal Gov
eminent, and the whole country feels the
insufferable insult. The Federal Govern
ment embodies and represents the Person,
the Property, Liberty and most sacred
Rights of every citizen, and an attack up
en- the Government is against every per-
son including all his relations and inter
ests. Every shot and shell fred at Fort
Sumter was essentially aimed and inten-
ded, as against every interest, prerogative,
and right protected by the General Gov
eminent and invested in it.
It is worse for US than as if the rebels
had staggered to Watertown. erected their
mud batteries on yonder hill, and In their
drunken delirium had vomited destruction
upon our property, our homes and our lives.
That would be striking blow upon only
the entremities of the great body, while
this attack upon the Government is aimed
at the heart, and is designed to destroy the
country. Every man whose baseness of
sympathy with rebels and relation to the
Cow Boys Of '76 do not richly merit hang
ing, feels that his highest existence is not
In himself, nor his family even, nor his
possessions, but rather in tie large aggre-
gate of humanity which constitutes the
country and hence regards an attack up
on the country as infinitely more vital, and
as demanding more summary and seVerer
redress, than if struck at merely himself.
his property or family.
These views explain the profound depth
CT indignation and resentment, which have
taken possession of every breast. Every
man feels infinitely more than if the rob
bsr or assassin had met him in the street
demanding his purse or life, or than if hi
domestic circle were invaded and outraged
by Southern rufians as these ruffian
outrage all relations and rights, in the sa
rcred persons of male and female slaves

The Result.

1t may be that some timid men. or
some who sympathise with the rebels, are
really in doubt what will be the result of
the contest between the government and
its enemies, If you put four pounds into
the scale against two, can the result be
doubtful? VIII not the larger amount
control the smaller? 1t is thus in the
contest-the North iss.roally four to one
against its enemies, in all the elements that
entes into the question. There is only
one ground of possibility of failure of the
government, viz: want of disposition TO
maintain itself; and from the present sions
no one can doubt the purpose of the gov
eminent, sustained by the peoI lie to a man,
"a few creatures in shape of men except
ed) to maintain the laws at all hazards
Until the rebels can make two pounds
equal to four, let them not hope to succeed
IN their impious madness.
