Honest reader, which Of the above
five are the most aularlolS, sublime,
impudcnt. hrazcn LIES ? Each VA,
intended to cheat and dciulc the less
informed people.
The three first were successful and
wilful frauds.
Polk was elected and hi, first work
was to destroy the Tariff, because ii
did not please the Nabobs.
They then gave all claimed by the
British in OREGON, because it would
become Free Territory!
BUCHANAN was elected. when he
atSnce turned in with the Border
Ruiiians and tried to cuslavc Kansas
by the kickapoo, Lccompton and ST.
milar outrages, and hy the bloody
hand of violence. The Republicans
and honest Democrats fought and
conquered the Slave Power, there, as
they will on the National field.
Happily, the People fore,aw, when
BRECKENRIDGE destroyed the Demo
cratic party, that he would endeavor
to destroy the Union next-and they
chose LINCOLN, a TRUE Union man.
And now, the FIFTH infamous fraud
is attempted. VIII it succeed?
Every intelligent man must see that
= the chief leaders who oppose Union
Party-who insist on having a "divi-
dcd North have really hiudered
the Government in this War from the
outset. They have played the SPY, i'll
Congress, the Departments, the Army
and Navy, and half Of our failures or
defeats arise from rank TREACllE-
RY of secret traitors-cvery man Of
them, as far as known, Democrats!
In the face Of these notorious facts.
can any sensible voter again trust in
such lying leaders? ? Honest Democ-
rats, YOU KNOW THEY HAVE DECEIVED
YOU BEFoRE-NEvER GIVE THEM ANO-
Their CHANCE TO BETEAY YOU,
"DIVIDE AND CONQCER!" is
the Rebels motto. While they will
allow but one party at the South, in
the North they are working through
some Of the Hughes Democracy to stir
up internal diSsensiOns and thereby
weaken the Government.
They are secretly organized. and
are expcnding thousands Of dollars
to carry Pennsylvania.
Wm. III. Miller, their candidate for
Congress, is stumping this District.
A gentleman who has heard him sew
cral times, says his whole aim seems
to be indirectly to prejudice the people
against the Administration which is
doing its best to put down the Rebel
lion. He has satisfied many Douglas
Democrats that he is now identified
with the Brcckinridgers, whatever he
may have been before.
The true friends of the Union
and the Government desired to have
no political partizan cxcitements at
such a time as this. Ii any locality
desire a meeting to expose any false
hoods, or call out our strength, so be
1t. But let ALL

BE WARNED !-Pr0bably hun
dred thousand Hennsylvanians to-day
mourn, in the bitterness Of their souls,
that they voted for Mr. Buchanan for
President, aud God to forgive them
that bluudsr. Not that they have aught
agsinst hm a' 4 man, or private citizen
but, as an officer, as a politician, he is
guilty Of giving the Rebellion its headTay
and chance for so much evil. 1t was a
foolish, wicked, fatal Estate priic"-vot-
ing "because they know the man"-that
led them to acts Of shame and Of ruin 10
their results.
Learn wisdom We have heard Of
men who, from County Pride" or "be-
cause they know him." talked Of support
log Nr. Slcukcr, while detesiing his po-
liti.ll associations. We beg such men to
rcfa that this is not race for cnmpll-
meuis, or TO crafty mere personal
preferences is an earnest test of stern
Principles, that may affect the Nation for
years to come. As Il man, private
citizen, Mr.. Slenker is respectable, aud
worthy, as is also his opponent. As an
officer those who know both vii! give Mr
Cochran the need of superiority. And as
politician, Mr.. Slenkcr Is supported by
+. ". Ilu-hes anl every man in the
State suspected Of friendship to the Rebel
cause, Ill. election would be,hailod in
HicLmoni, aud wherever this Union Is
hated, as Il blow against the existing
Government, and in favor Of Secession.
OFF WITH Ills HEAD The following
Incident Is one OF many proving that
there ave among our army many men WHO
wish and hope to thwart our forces and
worry the North into submission to the
Slave Power. We do rot put Gen.
NJ Ciellan in that class, bat the man
named only proved the telling among
some cur of oiI.ers, who, when in pow1r,
surrender as Miles did at
llarpers Ferry.
MAJ JouN RAY, additional Aid-de-
camp TO Maj Gen. llallcck, has been dis
missed from the service, for the utterance
of disloyal sentiments. Maj. Ray is re-
ported to have said, in answer to the
question why Mcclellan did not move on
the Rebels and crush them, on the day
following the great battle of Antietam,
"Because that was not the programme. +
Tie programme is to prolony ne tcar un- .
til tie nert PrcsiRrnrGi election, and hea
settle Il rith the ReJeLs on Den0crdtic
principles" The President summoned
him, and, he not being able to Justify his .
remarks, he was dismissed. This is re-
carded as an excellent example in high
quarters, and it is hoped the army may
be thoroughly purged Of those who utter
trcasouablc words. Maj. Ray bore fair
character as au officer, but, as he had
been assigned to Gen. Haliecks staff
without his being previously known to
the General, he was not trusted cOuiicn-
TALLY.

The French Legation at the Rebel Capital.
Our special dispatches give much valuable
information obtained from members Of the
Frsach legation just returned from Rich
mOnd and Norfolk. They represent the reb-
els as expressing the greatest confidence in
the ultimate success ef their cause, doubtless
supposinPit a good opportunity to play their
accustomed game Of brag upon the French
Minister. OF course they claimed COM
plete victory to their arms in the battle of
Shiloh, thinking "a lie well stuck to is as good
as the truth" The Captain Of the French
man-of-war Gassendi took the starch out of
some rebel braggsrts by telling them, in the
most pointed French style, They've driven
you ont of Maryland, Missouri and Kentucky,
and, BY gar, they drive you into the Gulf Of
Mexico Of course the rebels ''cOuldn't see
it."
The legation represent Richmond and Nor
folk as absolutely destitute of the three great
Injuries, tea, coffee and wine, Gen. Huget
exchanging hams with the French Captain
for a small quantity of coffee for his own
table. The grain is all required for the army,
and meats bear an eIOrbitant price, chick
ems of the poorest quality selling for three
dollars each.
The rebels talked Of burning New Orleans
after the manner Of the Russians ct Moscow.
They do notseem to appreciate the difference
In circumstances now and then. There isno
Arctic winter 70 destroy our troops in the
Gulf region, nor are they dependent upon
the impoverished rebel cities for supplies
The burningof theiF cities viii be a loss only

mander .in-chief, acknowledged the defence.

no defsnses but q single steam ram sfteF

of the French Minister to his Government Of
what he sew and learned during his visit to
