SERGEANT A ]. THoRNToE has been in
the hospital, al Cumberland, for some time
with the fever; but will rejoin us to- morrow
We have missed him greatly, and will vel
come him back TO our ranks with Joy; be-
is whoIe-souled fellow, brave soldier, Il
kiEd friend and an honest conscientious
man; may his shadow never grow less.
Ireceived letter, short time since
from an homes, democrat from your county
in which he says, that he is sorry that
have become soldier, since the stay at
home Republicans of the old "horse party
stamp are abusing the democrats so awfully
as being the parry that caused this rebellion
and now are refusing to assist in putting i
down. Now this is what call rather cool
for the abolition pariyl Democrats not as
sisling the suppression of this rebellion =
Let us look al the Saith Reg:., for instance,
and see who are the men that does the
fighting and defends the honor of the stars
and stripes. The Colonel, Lieut.. Colonel
Major, Adjutant, Quariermasler, Surgeon,
Asst. Surgeon, nine Captains, and any
quantity of Lieutenants, are democrats -
This much for The officers now as far as
the non commissioned officers and -privates
are concerned there is majority of fwo thir is
in favor OF the Democratic party And the
majority of Them were Breckenridge Demo-
erals at thai Lei this wooily headed, negro
loving, abolition, old horse party crack iha
nut.
Some of this same party have found their
way in the ranks, aud are greatly opposed
TO this politics and war" al the same time.
Now |, for one, contend tha, ! as we'll as
any other person have the right to expose
The coutemptible falsehoods propagated by
such rebelIious subjects, ard such traitor
Gus characters, as the leaders oi the present
black hearted Republican party. This is
the mildest term can use, after the shame
ful abuse OF confidence that has been placed
in them. This even extends 10 the very
head of this dictalorisl party; who no
heeding the warpings, nor listening to the
good advice given him by sages, statesmen
and even warriors. pureues his own viciou:
way, and appoints such mean and notori'
Gus characters, as Sf7cdrd Chdse oad Came
ron, TO responsible positions around his i'm
/ mediate person; knowing at the time the
abolition proclivilies OF the two former inC
the stealing propensilies of the latter. Is j
any wonder that the country is last ap
praching the maelstrom OF destruction. anC
unless We have change soon the old shiE
of State will be foundered upon the rocks o
] Abolitionism, and the barren sand banks o
bankruptcy raised by those double dyeG
traitors and villains.
The appointment of Simon Cameron a
Secretary of War, after the frighhul exam
pies of dishonsiy propagated by him, in de

when he had the coniFac, from the Unitst
States of raising the Levees on the Missis

of of the Western Reserve Claims in 1898
when he wiilully stole ONE MILLION
DOLLARS. put il in his pocket, and CAV

from holding any post of trust, no matte
