REFORM NEEDED-In many places citizens and

while en- route for the seat of war; or encamped at
some place where they were strangers. Rather too
often, perhaps this kindness has been manifested

and hungry and would have been glad of a Gun Of
coffee or biscuit But the flowers were far better
than nothing, and some of the young men NAV have
thought them better than food The following from

the day of the grand entree Of Jeff Davis into

August By that day, as the teru of our three

be left comparatively deterceless, from the

remain idle till the LIST of August, when they

at this crisis, with only regiment or two Of

his administration in Washington was living

Republican Ideas of Popular
Rights.

The Republican papers are great on treason.
Any thing and every thing that don't come up
to their standard in treason. 1t is treason to
circulate petitions for q compromise or peaceful
adjustment Of o"~ national troubles and it is
proper to arree persons circulating them. ltis
treason to question the constitutional power Of
the President to increase the standing army
without authority oflaw. 1t is reasonable to
question the power OF military commanders to
refuse to obey a writ of habeas corpus; and more
reasonable to question the authority of the
President to confer such power on his subordi-
mates. 1t is treasanable to object to squads Of
military visiting private houses, and, without
warrant from the civil magistrate, making
searches and seizure. 1t is treason TO question
the right of the President to seize ths private
correspondence Of the citizen against whom no
suspicion or complaint has been made. 1t is
treason to question the inalibilty of the Presi-
dent and treason not to concur with him in all
his recommendations. 1t is treason to talk Of
the hard times; to refer to the distress over the
country consequent upon the war; to ruined
trade; to closed manufactures and workshops;
to prospective heavy taxes. 1t is treason TO say
that tnis war might have been avoided had the
Crittenden Compromise been adopted and not
spit upon by the Republican leaders, In fine,
it is treason to be truthful and faithful to the
Constitution and to the people. 1t is very
good thing that these Republicans have not the
power to en- orce their ideas Of what const
tutes treason. Had they the power, they would
shame despoism itself with their acts Of taran.

since to prenteded wool buyer named Smith,
and which was not returned. On the 9Th they

rived he found his team and buggy, and on last

The pretended wool buyer (Smith) had a

that would have prevented bloodshed and saved

that it is left exclusively to the States, except

The King Cam DO No Wrong.

There are some persons who profess to be
unable to see the distinction between support.
ing the Government and standing by the flag,
and sustaining Linconn's and Dennison's Ad-
ministration1. They think the "King can do
no wrong" and that we must shout hozannas
to him. Now we see a vast difference in the
propositions. In order to show consistency
and devotion to the Union, every patriot who
is for its preservation ought to denounce the cor
ruption of Dennison and the. usurpations and
inetficiency Of Lincolns Administration, rather
than favor them.

We take great pleasure in calling attention to
the Significant vote which was taken IN the
House of Representatives. Thursday. Some
extreme Abolition resolutions Of Lovejov, to the
effect that fugitive slaves should not be restored
to their owners, and that the Fugitive slave
Law should be repealed, were laid on the table
by a vote Of 81 to GO. This will strengthen
the conservative sentiment of the South, will
weaken the rebels at home, and be productive
Of great good. The "irrepressbes" are evil

good sign for the Union, good sign for peace.
