Traitors at Home.

Following are few extracts from q
speech delivered at War Meeting in the
District of Columbia, recently, by L. 4.
Crittenden:
"Wh is the history of this war? Cit
lzens hung In presence of their families,
for no crime but love of their country
wounded soldiers, with the cry of mercy
on their lips, barbarously slaughtered
Would to Heaven that | could stop here
but the very grave, sacred everywhere
from the attack Of every animal but the
hyena and the traitor, has been desecra-
ted, and the uncorrupted flesh stripped
from the bodies of our soldiers, and their
bones kept this moment as treasured relics
of the battle. tell a story of more than
devllIsh lnhumanity, to which the mind
wouli give no credence that depended
upon anything but the most conclusive
testimony. All. gentlemen, the causes
OF this quarrel are in the past. Let them
be there. With the m We have nothing to
do. Hesitation, compromise, negotiation,
delay-timid counsels, all-are words that
belong to the past. Ours is the business,
and ours the duty, of protecting this coun-
try ard the Government, at the expense
OF our lives, if need be, and to see to it
that the history we are this day making
shall not be one of which our children
may be ashamed.
"Mr. President, since the commence
ment of this war there has been ono i'm
portant omission. To hundreds of our
soldiers, whose bodies lie upon rebel
ground, it has been fatal one. We have
suffered men, whose hearts were as full of
treason as the shambles are with offal, to
breathe the same air that we do, to walk
the same street that we do, and to sit at
the same table. When this rebellion
broke into overt acts, every traitor who
had spark of honor about him left and
went to his native place. None remained
among Us but those whose nature qualified
them for exercising the business Of pimps
and spies and they are here today and
carrying out theirw work. / say, gentlemen,
that we cannot expect the Government to
look after these men-we cannot expect
the military governors and provost marshals
to do tive must Go it ourselves. There
are many ways you may tell traitor.
They are not noisy. They do not proclaim
their affection for JEFF Davis; but when
you see men going through such times as
these, and not manifesting one word oe
sympathy for the Government in Its
struggle, and not one word favoring the
putting down of this rebellion, mark him
and spot him. He is a worse traitor than
if he we're in the enemy's country"

The news Of Gen. McClellan's victory at An

others accord great credit to Gen. Mcclellan.
Among the rassengers by the Persia is Town

sessions is that of Thos. &. Bates against Judah
+. Benjamin, the rebel Secretary OF War The
suit is brought by Mr.. Bates TO recover the value
of large quantity of railroad iron which was
seized and confiscated in Louisiana by order of
the traitor Benjamin in his official capacity rs
Secretary Of War of the so-called Confederate
States. MIR. Bates was an extensive railroad
contractor, and was engaged in building road
from New Orleans to some inland town.
This cause Will probably be- tried to day or
tomorrow. Mr.. Bates evidently has faith in
the eventual success of the federal cause, and
the probability of an early opportunity to col
lect damages in judgment, should he be for
tunate enough to secure one The ease in all
its aspects is, to say the least, n curious one,
