GEN. wADsWOHTEz's SPEECH.

Gen. Wadsworth. in his Washington speech,
has taken the bull by the horns. lie truly
says it is q contest between the aristocracy
and the toiling milbons-between the govern
ment of the few and the supremacy OF the
maiority-between those who live on tho labor
of others, and the masses who work. The
negro is q secondary consideration, AID IL
made to play conspicuous part only Tor the
purpose of playing on the passions and preju-
dlces of the ignorant. The real coOtroyeFsy
about which We are shedding so much blood is
the mOmentous one proclaimed by our revolt
tionary fathers, of the right of mankind to
govern themselves. The question is now being
settled on the battlefield, whether the majority
shall rule, or The few, who impiously pretend
that they are better bora than others, and
have inherited right TO command. From the
days IF the Patriarchs down to The present
time, there has been a continued effort to rule
mankind BY Divine Right. Ii the slayeiolding

Wadsworth gees and appreciates this great
truth, nld Is almost the only one Of our pablo
men who has announced it. The people will
soon be- called upon to decide whether they
prefer Gen. WadswOrth and the right Of the
majority 81 rule, or iIorntio Seymour and
practical aristocracy. To doubt their decision
would be 10 pronounce them incompetent to
decide so momentous question.

States for Gen. Sgel was given.

done, makes request to citizens generally TO report

or imperfections which they may have observed in
the enrolment.

dent, they will by this Endorsement strengthen
tho hands of our friends among the European
journalists as nothing has ever strengthened
them before. On the other hand if the coun-
sells Of the Pro-Slavery Democracy should be
listened to--if New.York, Pennsylvania, and
Ohio should proclaim that they will not sustain
the Proclamation of the President, but that, in
their opinion, the war should only be continued
for the settling the territorial question--if Con.
gress even should confirm this vew--then The
Neps and Star Of London, the Journal des
Debats of Paris, with, We believe, every one Of
the European journals now friendly to Us,
would turn away from the advocacy of our
cause with disgust, and there would not be
left in Europe a solitary organ to oppose the
final separation of the once United States.
There are thousands in the Democratic party
who have never considered the Importance of
this fact, and yet we doubt whether any of
their organs will dare to contest the truth Of
our above statement. We therefore recommend
its consideration to those who may still doubt
what to think of the Presidents Proclamation.
A war for the sole restoration Of the Union az
it was, at the present stage 8 the uar, will
have against it more unanimous opposition
on the part of the entire civilized world than
any other war of modern times.

We require, accordingly, no publication Oh
afidavits as given by the journals, to prove any
and every species Of murder ut the hands Of
the Secessionsts. But, Us matter OF record
we may quote such afIidavts as are contained III
Tie Helena (Arkansas) Shield. For example; one
old man testfes TO hangiDgs of two citizens by
mock Lynch body. Alawyer named Hall was
condemned to be hung or run through by bay
onets-but, by some oversight, was graciously
not murdered. Dr. Davis and others boosted

thus four days-the so treated party being the
best men in the county" Seventeen enlisted

and SO forth.

Beside these, nearly all the Republican
stronghods had 20 nearly completed their
quotas that they were morally certain to do so
without q draft. Probably not more than 2
dozen counties will have to DRAFT. and these
mainly counties that gave aaii-Liacon mt.
joriies.
We state these facts because there have
been many sneering inquiries for Il" the Wide
Awabes," "the Abolitiouists," 'the fellows
who got us into this scrape,' and slurs of
their alleged reluctance to enlist. Extensive
inquiries assure VA that more than two-thirls
OF tho l02, 302 who have enlisted under these
calls are Republicans, while a large share ct
the residue are Of that class of Democrats
who believe in thoroughly suppressing the
Rebellion and its cause. We shall miss their
votes in many districts in November, but there
are War Democrats enough left at home TO
secure the election Of WADswORTH and
FIREMAN. BY handsome majorities.

NV YORK. Sent. %. ls6


A correspondent inquiries why the New-fork
papers do not publish the lists OF killed and
wounded in New-Jersey regiments. For our.
selves, we reply that our correspondents with
the armies are indefatisable in making such
lists, gathering names on the battlefield aud
in tho hospitals from the soldiers themselves,
and in procuring afterward. when possible, the
official lists. all which we publish instantly.
notwithstanding tho inevitable repetition.
When it has been impossible to procure th,
official record the names Of the killed AMI
wounded in any particular regiment will be
found, as far as it has been possible to pro
cure them, scattered through the general lists

our readers know from the frequent extracts
which we have given from The London Star,
how stanch and unninchDg an advocate of
our cause this English paper has invariably
been IL has faithfully shared our fears and
our hopes. 1t has shown deep aud heartfelt
sympathy with the principles which We have
been called upon 10 defend against csuseless
rebellion. 1t has never ceased ts efforts 10
counteract the schemes Of the aristocrscy and
the cotton lords Of England in behalf of tho
Rebels. Yet, even Tie Star feels itself com
PEELED to declare chndidly that if the loyal
States shall continue the var exclusively with a
view Of re-establishihg the Union " as it ras, "
they Will lose the sympathy Of their best friends
in Europe. Nor stands The Star alone in this
opinion. Tho Journal des Deta,s and other
French English. aud German papers have often
assured US Of tie same thing. In opposition
to the open or disguised hostility Of the organs
Of the French Government and the English
aristocracy, they have always insisted that the
question at issue was not merely a territorial
but also and principally a moral one that the
independence Of the South would perpctuate
the abomination Of Slavery. while the victory
Of the North would surely lead to is over
throw.
Tho struggle Of our friends aud our oppo-
nenis in the European press-as none of our
Pro-slayery organs will depy--has entirely
tdrned about this point; Is the point at issue
in the American war only TERRITORIAL, or IN
1t at tho same time n moral question Nearly
ail OF our opponents have contendcd that the
question is merely territorial in its character
as the loyal States had nothing else in view
Many, if not most of them, have admitted that
if it could be proved that our aim was at the
same time a moral onc--the weakening of
Slavcry-it would put another face upon The
character Of the war, aud of course do away
at once with nearly all their arguments.
On the other hand the papers which have
been friendly TO us have been equally unani.
nous in denying that--at least yirtually-we
bad nothing in view but the preservation of
the integrity Of our territory. Not that at the
beginning of the war they considered an armed
resistance to Secession uIyustifed; but as the
war assumed larger and larger Dimensions, and
cost immense sacrifices of men and money.
they have unanimously made to their oppouonts
in Europe this admisslon-that the continuance
of such bloody and protracied war for merely
territorial considerations was not worthy the
cost, but decidedly TO be condemued; snd that
continuance could not possibly DO justified
on any other ground than the hope of attaining
by it at tho same time great moral end
We can therefore ioresee with certainty that

We do not make any wonderment at Seces-
sion atrocities-east of all, of those in Arkan-
sas. Slavery being barbarism, at all, the best,
of times, begets the habits of barbariaus--the
fierce, unbridled sway of passions, the wearing
of concealed weapons, and the constant read-
ness to make murderous assaults. Mr.. Jeher-
son, Mr.. Pinckney, and other Southern writers,

of slaycholding on the character and habits Of
