The special dispatches 20 the Gazette say that
1.-The result of the Republican caucus the
adoption Of the policy of conhscation. The
select committee to be appointed is strongly for
the measure" Mark We. The Republicans have
declared there party in this war. and here
is the evidence of the sincerity of their profes
sions to the country. No party, they say, and
yet Republican caucuses are held to determine
upon tae policy of the Government Can the
people be any longer deceived by such arrant
hypoerisyl
There can be no doubt that all the proposed
conhscating measures will have the tendency TO
exasperate and prolong the war. The odious
bill before the House we are happy to say was
defeated BY vote of 81 against AZ but it is
ominous of evil when forty eight Representatives
could be found who were willing to record their
votes in its favor. We are happy to notice that
one Republican member from Indiana, WN
McKEK Dunn. put his seal of reputation upon it
in just and appropriate terms. He said, as re
ported by telegraph;
The subject of confscating rebel property was
of the most difficult questions before Congress-
aud ia the decision of which was involved the
restoration of the Government to its former
state Of prosperity. He congratulated the House
and country that this morning there had been
laid upon the table a bill which, If it had been
ptssed would have diSgraced the civilization of
this age. Explanations on the Democratic side,
OF Good. goodl" That's sol" Ii was "a bill
which. at fell swoOp, would have impover-
ished the people generally. from old age down to
innocent childhood.
The radical Republicans seem determined to
ruin the country and destroy the Union il 1t is
possible for them TO accomplish these purposes
ard it IS likely they will do both, unless they
stopped in their mad schemes by an overwhem-
ing resuke from the people.

that city. The whole country around here is
beautiful, but begins % show the cesolatng ef-
fleets Of civil war There are hundreds Of ele
CANT mansions and sne farms deserted, which
have been and now occupied by volun-
teers. The rebels regarded neither the property
of their sympathizers that of the Union peo-
pie; everything was taken or destroyed just as
u suited their convenience. There are over FIVE
hundred sick and wounded in hospitals within the
bounds OF this city. Surgeon Gall has charge
of the wounded men. His wards well ar
ranged, and his patients, though many are fright
fully wounded. are cheerful, hopeful. and still
talk of doing more fighting. DR.. Gall is devoted

Although it is admitted that the Union senti-

Yet one cannot help observing that the love for

suffered great deal from the ravages of the
rebels. Subsistence Of every kind has been taken
without money and without price. and in hun

prices. Flour Is worth s. 30 per barrel; coffee
81 % per pound; butter SOC per pound; tea 50

Many citizens who were raised i'm affluence have
been reduced to want by vesting their means in
