Maior-General Pope.

Maj. Gen. Pope, who has been appointed
to the command of the Army of Virginia,
is upward of forty years of age. lie was
born in Kentucky, but emigrated to Illinois
before attaining his majority, and is now a
citizen of that State. He enterd the West
Point Military Academy in 1888, as a
cadet from Illinois, and graduated with
distinction in 1912.
He was soon after appointed a brevet
second lieutenant of Typographical Engin-
GERS in the United States service and at
the commencement of the war with Mexico
accompanied the army in that capacity.
At the battle of Monterey, he distinguished
himself, and for his gallant conduct on
that occasion was brevetted first lieutenant
the commission bearing date Sept ember
%, 1S46. For mertorious service at the
battle of Buena Vista, he was breve!ted a
captain, his commission dating from the
23d of February, 1s47. In July, 1S4s,
he became full Captain in the Topo-
graphical Engineering corps, and soon af.
forwards was placed in command of the
Expedition sent out by the United States
government to ascertain the practicability
of boreing artesian wells in the Staked
Plain lying between Texas and New Mex.
leo. Not succeeding in the undertaking,
Captain Pope returned to Illinois. He
supported Mr., Lincoln for the Presidency,
and in February 1861, at the request of
the newly elected President, he accompan.
led him on his journey to Washington.
Being known to Mr.. Lincoln as an able
and loyal officer, he was successfully pro.
NOTED until, on the 18th of May, 1861, he
was appointed a Brigadier General, and
assigned to the department of Missouri
In March last he was promoted to Ma.
jor. .Generaship, and subsequently com.
manded division Of Gen. Halleck's army
before Corinth. Thus he has risen step
by step to one Of the most important posi-.
tions in the Union army.

esy- So much of the act of August last
as imposes a direct tax of twenty millions
on the United States, shall only be held
to authorize the levy and collection of one
tax to that amount; and no other tax
shall be levied under and by virtue there-
Of until the lst of April, 1865, when the
same shall be in full force and effect.
We copy the above from the Philadel-
phia Inquirer, and publish it to call at
tcntion to the fact that the Republicans
desire as much as possible to shrink there,
sponsibilities of collecting and enforcing
the collection of the taxes they have made
necessary and put off therefore till the
Democracy are in power the enforcement
of one act, now law. 1t goes into oper

President will be inaugurated 4th March,
1865, whereupon the opposition expect tc
make capital out of the collection of the
twenty million tax. Remember !

years since, Mr.. Seward introduced bill
into the Senate to abolish slavery in the
District of Columbia. That bill received

DaRriRe Democrat.
Yes, and not many years ago, prop
osition was introduced into the United
States Senate in favor of dissolution OF
the Union, and received the votes of this
same Mr.. Seward, John p. Hale and Sal
mon P. Chase. Judging by the course
the Aboitionists are pursuing, he seems
likely to succeed in this latter project
and that in spite of an army of 100000
men battling fer its restoration Sadly
and sorrowiully, we admit, "Events march

NEGROES IN THE ARMY.-The Aboli-
tion agitation are seeking by every means
to force upon the people their perverted
ideas of negro equality. The latest move.
ment is bill introduced in the Senate by
the notorious John p. Hale, to authorize
the enlistment of negroes in the army and
has created PROFOUND sensation at Wash
ington. 1t provides that the President
shall have the power, by proclamation,
to call on every person to enlist, without
distinction Of color, race, or condition, and
that every slave SO enlisted shall ever
thereafter be free and entitled to all the
pensions and bounties of white soldiers.
The movement is most i'll advised and has
aroused the utmost Indignation among the
troops now in the vicinity of the Capital
They say they are willing to fight for the
country but in doing so they are not will
ing that negro soldiers should be on al
equality with them. The bill has gone tC
the Military Committee, and it Is extreme
ly doubtful wether it will be reported t(
the Senate in its present shape.

RD- "UNIoN SAVERS. Previous to
the Presidential election, Of 1860, says a
contemporary, the opponents of the Dem
ocratic party applied to its members many
epithets of deriSion; but among the cata
logue ofsarcastic appellations fixed upon
Us by Republicans and Abolitlonists, none
were uttered with such JUNCTION of scorn as
those of 'Union- Savers and "Union
Shriekers." The valiant orators of Re-
piblicanism were in the habit of pointing
their wit and adorning their denuneia:ions
OF Democrats in general by calling them
Union savers and shriekers. The peop lie
are now looking back to the admonitions
of Democrats then spoken and written a
eainst the success of sectional party bas'
ed upon antagonism to the vital interests
and institutions OF large number of the
States of the Union, and thinking that the
Democrats were not only in earnest in
their endeavors to save the Union, but thai
they toolk a very proper and prophetic
view of the whole subject of Abolition Sec

Of white men, and was established exciu'
sivelv for the white race; that the negro
race are not entitled to and ought not 10
be admitted to political or social equality
with the white race, but that it is our duty
10 treat them with kindness and consider
alton, as an inferior and dependent race
that the right of the several States to oe'
determine the position and duties OF the
race is a sovereign right, and the pledges
of the Constitution require us, as loyal
citizens, not to interfere herewith.
10th. Reso1ved, That Congress has no
power to deprive any person OF his prop
erty for any criminal offence, unless that
person has been first duly convicted OF the
offence by the verdict of jury; and that
all acts Of Congress like those lately pas
sed by the House Of Representatives, which
assume to forfeit or confscate the estates
of men for offences of which they have not
been convicted upon due tiial by jury,aroo
unconstitutional, and lead to oppression and
tyranny. 1t is no justification for such
acts that the crimes committed in the pros
ccution of the rebellion arc of uncxampltd
atrocty nor is there any such Justification
as State necessity known to our Govern
ment or laws.
lltb. ReSolved, That the Constitution
and Union aud the laws must be preserved
and maintained in all their proper and
rightful supremacy, and that the rebellion
now in arms against them must be sup.
pressed and put down, and that it is our
duty to use all constitutional measures
necessary ard proper to that end.
18th. RcSoiyed, That the soldiers COM
posing our armies merit the warmest thanks
of the nation. Their country called, and
nobly did they respond Living, they
shall know q nations gratitude; wounded,
nations care, and dying, they shall live
in our memories, and monuments shall be
raised to teach posterity to honor the
patriots and heroes who offered their lives
at their countrys altar. Their widows
and orphans shall be adopted by the nation,
to be watched over, and cared for as oh
jccts truly worthy nations guardianship
The resol ulons were unanimously adopt
ed amid loud and enthusiastic applause.
On motion OF Mr.. Lamberlon
