The subiugators.

There is class of politicians at the
North who will be satisfied with nothing
short of a complete annihilation of the
Southern rebels. These men are denomi-
mated subjugators. They are clamcrous
for active war measures, and will listen TO
no propositions for peace or in favor of con-
Quoting the war in accordance with the
customs and rules of civilized nations
Blood, blood is what they want. They
contend that the rebel prisoners should be
.hown no quarter but that they should be
strung up as soon as they are captured by
our troops, regardless of the retalitory
measures threatened by our enemies. Ir>
deed they are in favor of conducting the
war upon the Sepoy system, and of making
it one of subjugation or determination.
Now We would suggest to these gentle
men who are so anxious to see rivers of
human gore flow throughout our land, a
way by which they can give more force to
their counsels. Let them stop blowing in
bar rooms, at the corners of the streets,
from the pulpits, or on paper, and join
themselves to the army, and armed for the
deadly work, meet on the tented field the
men for whose blood they thirst. Let them
do this and people will believe they are
honest in their professions. They sho'd
be willing to face some of the dan>
gers which their no quarter policy would
inaugurate, and not leave the Democrats
and conservative Republicans to fight the
| terrible battle alone.
But are they willing to do this ? Dc
these blood thirsty Republicans come for
ward to sustain the flag? What part have

We set it down as fixed fact that that iu-
dividual is not going to peril his life fo
the success of his doctrines Such men are
valiant when other men are willing to dl
the fighting. They even go so far as t.
threaten with violence those who may ven
ture TO suggest more human measures il
the prosecution of the war. Thus we ma,
find out the sutjugators and coward
amongst US. Boisterous language and
cowardly heart, always go together.

Hon G. l.. Vailandigham.

4nOSt VI our readers are aware OF the
abuse that has been heaped upon Mr.. VAL
landlgham. member of Congress from
Ohio, because he deemed it his duty, at
the recent session Of Congress. to oppose
the policy of the Administration and to
discuss and dissent from the active war
measures inaugurated by the dominant
party. He has been denounced in the
most malignant manner, and his position
wantonly misrepresented by all the Repub
lican newspapers and portion of the Dem
ocratic newspapers OF the North.
And our Republican cotemporary of this
city has even gone so far as to 6enr unce
Mr.. Vallandgbam as a traitor ave, las
black hearted traitor, as ever walked the
face Of the earth"
Now In order that our readers may see
how vile traitor Mr.. Vallandigham is,
we give in to-day's paper the main part of
his recent speech in Congress, upon which
Is founded the charge Of treason. We would
invite for it a careful perusal, not because
we endorse it, but because we wish the
honorable gentleman to have fair hearing:
! and if he has uttered reasonable seuti-
ments, to be held responsible for them
Let him be judged before the bar of popu-
lar intelligence and held accountable if be
has violated the constitution or advanced
any other than Union sentiments.
LoCKPoRT ARTILLERY CoNPANY-This
| company has returned home, and from
what we learn the men have just grounds
for complaint. They have been in active
service four months and have not received
one cent OF pay. There was some mistake
in the muster roll, and unfortunately the
Government paymaster rejected it. The
State officers were authorized 10 nav them
for only one month, which they refused 10
receive, unless the payment should be Sc
cured Tor the balance of the time they were
in service. We understand that Cant
Hawley is in no way censurable for the
manner in which his company has been
used. Some one is to blame however. 1t
Is shame and disgrace to the State that
men who rushed forward at the call of our
country, as did the brave volunteers from
Lockport, should be treated with such
neglect. 1t is said they performed their
duties as became brave men and patriots.
We learn that the citizens of Lockport
have determined to pay them for their ser
vices, If the Government will not.

Sudden Deaths.

Numerous have been the sudden deaths
10 various parts of the country during the
late hot weather.
DR.. j. p. st. Clair, of this city, well
known throughout the country as Veteri
nary Surgeon, while in Chicago on BUSH
ness, on the 5th inst. fell down on the
street from the effects Of sun stroke, and
though he was taken up and conveyed to
quarters where he was properly cared for
and the usual remedies in such cases ap-
Piled, he died in a few hours. The remains
were brought to this city for iuserment.
On the same day, Thomas Rafferty,, of
this city, was found dead in the western
part of the city. He had been at work on
MIR. Dorcey's farm and, complaining Of
feeling unwell, started for home about 8
O'Clock in the afternoon, His lifeless body
was found lying on the street about
O'clock. An inquest was held by Coroner
Demmond and the virdict of the jury was
that bis death had been caused by sun
stroke.
A few days ago, citizen of Mokena
went on horse back to drive home some
cows, and IN an hour or SO afterwards was
found dead In the corner of a fence near
the town. His death was evidently the
result of the excessive heat.
sgThe State Register, the leading Dem
oeratic paper Of, the State is decidedly CD.
posed to the proposed fusion with the Re-
publicans. The Register is right. We
want no fusion except against rebellion
and treason. On all other questions, Dem
ocrats must stand aloOf from the Repub,i-
cans.

GREAT RAIN STORM The storm on
Sunday night exceeded anything in the
memory Of the Oldest inhabitants. The
rain commenced falling about nine O'clock
and continued to pour down in unceasing
torrents for ten honrs. The whole coun

much damage has been done to the grain
that had been harvested but not secured in
stacks or barns

WILMINGTON.-There is no other town in
the State that presents greater evidences of
prosperity than Wilmington. Notkwith-
standing the hard times, business is lIyelv
and improvements are going on at a rapid
rate. We are assured that there is not n
vacant store in tho place; and Inquiries
are constantly made for houses to let The
hankakee river Improvement which is
being pushed forward as speedily as possi-
bic, when COMPLETED, will open new era
in that section of the country. The value
of grain will be increased two or three
cents per pushed and the price of real es>
tate must advance. The truth is, the en-
tire hankakee valley must become tribu-
tary to Wilmington, and eventually it will
be ore of the most important business points
in the State.
