The Right Doc.rinc.

We are glad to observe tlat SO influential
Republican plIer as the New York Times pro
tests against character being given to the war
which does not belong to it. at is greit mis-
take says the Times. chat the war which is
now being initiated, is against the South.
or against. Southern institutions" Again. says
that print, "the war on the part Of the people of
the North is not against States the institutions
Of any State. IL is against treason and in de-
ferse of The beat government in the world. 1t is
against rebellion that would overthrow the freest
institutions of all the Earth; against revolution
that would check the progress of civilization,
and throw this great country back into half a
century of retorgression. What they denand of
the seeding States is, not that they shall change
their domestic Institutions their constitutions,
their policy their laws, but that they shall re-
turn to their allegiance to the government. They
have no lust of conquest, and they Rave no
thought of subjngation. When peaoe shall have
been conquered and the seeding States restored
to the Union, they will come back with ali their
rights unimpaired their sovereignties fully
guaranteed, and their domestic institutions as
sub,ec to their own control as are those of New
York to-day. Albeit, there may be hanging of
individual traitors and the scattering of dema-
gogues and adventures who have maddened and
betrayed the South into the policy and the crime
of rebellion" This is the right doctrine preached
from the right quarter.

The Mobile (Alabama) Register, edited by
john FoRsYrn, one of the late Southern Com
nissiOners to Washington, thus speaks of the ex-
traorlnary demonstration of attachment to the
Union which has lately been made in the free
States. He says:
We remember nothing in the history of th.s
eountry-nothing in the various issues and politi-
cal extravaganzas with which 1t has been visited
iron time 70 time, at all comparable to the Union
mania which, on the fall of Fort Sumter, burst
forth like volcanic eruption throughout the ex-
tent of the Northern States That event was not
yet even preceded by the usual premonitions, the
internal rumbling and trembling which admonish
the inhabitants Of volcanic countries of an i'm
tending eruption.
Our Southern friends would do well to get out
Of the way of the Overwhelming eruption OF
Union sentiment, by returning to their allegiance

Improper Treatment of the soldier

4nprODeE Tcsttnttnt Oh inc SOl0lcFS.
We were disposed, when the soldiers were first
hastily summoned together, to attribute great
many of the privations to which they were sub.
jected to the fact that time was needed % prepare
the arrangements for feeding and clothing so
many persons properly. But sufficient time has
since elapsed for supplying many of the wants of
the soldiers, and vet we find them as badly neg
lected as on the first day of their assembling.
There are now at the Suffolk Park encampment,
eighteen hundred Ohio troops almost in a state OF
nsubordinnti0n. from their short supply Of food
The Quartermaster attached to these troops re-
ceIves thrty-ii cents per day for feeding each
man, which is ample. Yet, with the great album
dance which everywhere surrounds us, the men
are nearly starved, and some OF them talk of de
serting If their wants are not better supplied
They take every opportunity which l. presented
to leave the camp and come TO the city for food
Whose fault Is thisg Is il the Quarternaster
of the regiments, or Is il tie COmmissary Gene
RAILS? There certainly is no good or sufficient
excuse for it, The supply Of food here Is large,
money enough has been appropriated fer furnish
ing the soldiers with 1.-THE means OF getting il
TO the camp abundant The want of food,
therefore, must result from somebody's gross
neglect.
The quartermaster surely knows how much
bread and meat il requires daily TO feed eighteen
hundred men. BE can come to any baker 5 estab-
lishment, and make arrangements for = sufficient
number Of loaves of bread, to be daily sent TO
lie camp. II our bakers cannot supply enough,
here is the mechanical bakery to help them to
do il, and which could make bread enough every
day to feed twice the number in camp. lis could
also call ON provision dealers, and have a suifi-

men. If he is the proper kind Of quartermas.

torilv arranged, and the quariermaster ready to
accompany the food to the camp. An active, en-
crgetic man in this position would have had this
matter arranged long ago.
IL is an outrage 10 compel these soldiers, re-

Farmers OF the North.

On this class of men must the people of the
North depend for sustenance for themselves and
their armies during the war, and they should
crowd their operations to the utmost extent.
The following is from the last Cincinnati Gazette
ON the subject of Sorghum:
ONE THING 0yFRLoOKED-The abundant
planting of molasses- mixing corn. Every man
who made gallon in 1S60, should make % in
lo6l, and the farmer who made barrel in 1860,
should make 30 in 1861.
In every stage of the war we should be on our
guard against disgracefuI pelce. To do this.
we must seasonably provide against dependence
on traitors. A mere triHe has sometimes com

war continues Southern trade must cease and the
West Indies cannot supply Europe andr20 ,000, :
900 OF Americans in groceries. We may persuade
our spoiIt children and wives to change cotton
for flannel, but We can not persuade them to give
up sweet-that they must and viii have

there should not be great rise in sugar and mo-
lasses. so the growers Of these articles viii not
only do their duty to the stars and stripes, but

can as elsiiy lay aside sweet as our grand parents
did tea, ii would favor the cause Of liberty to

The Washington dispatches 10 the Cincinnati
Enquirer contains the following news.
Several teieeraphjc operators have arrived from
the South, having lost their situations. They
represent great military preparations as taking
place in Virginia, and state that unanimous de

The news of the arrest of Ross Winns created
a great sensation IN this city. He VII be tried

the general impression here that an early move
