rapidly in discipline and drill as any other
in the army.

Administrator party of to-day, who are,
atheart, opposed to the Government,--at

using all their devilisl ingenuity to force
their party to draw party lines in accord

ter the country recog nizes but two classes,
its friends, and its enemies If men,
in this trying crisis, venture to prefer
party to country IF they will not regard
the entirety of the nation paramount to
every other political consideration if
they will not unite with hand and heart
in helping to destroy Rebellion, then will
they become the Kissing aud contempt Of
an indignant public, and their detested
infamy will be the only distinction con-
ferred upon them by an outraged people.
