ton which he then took We, in common
with nine-tenths of the Republicans in the
Northwest thought that President Lincoln
greatly erred when he invited Mr: Smith

Let US see what is the practical opera

vaged war eight months in strict accord
snce with his principles, and what hare
&c gainedt Big Bethel: Bull Run, Vii
sons Greek, Lexington, and Balls Bluff!
True, we have achieved success at Port
Royal, but il. is success which premises
lappy results only BY the application Of
Secretary Cameron's principles. Secretary
Smith would turn all its fruits into Dead
Sea apples. According to his plan Of con-
Quoting the var We ought to make it Is
i1oody and expensive as possible on our
oscu side, rather than strike a decisive blow
at the cause Of the war, slavery, -Four

my. They constitute as essentiala part Of
the forces a1Tayed against the Union as JEFF
Davis, his cabinet, his congress, his
Generals, and his soldiers, or an combined.
To meet these forces we have collected an
army and navy Of $4,000 men and have
gone Tito an expense Of million dollars
per day. II we simply detach the slave
population frem the rebel service we shall
leduce their available strength one half,
which would be equivalent to adding q
quarter OF million Of soldiers to our own
side OF eubtracting half million Of dollars
per diem frem our expenses. But if He

will strike for Union and liberty, the rebel
lion will crumble ofits weight aud weak

dangerous, in order to preserve slavery

him, would have it short, decisive apG

Finally, l1r. Smith would give up th
