The Republican Party.

Tie Republican party, or the real Repub-
licans: are much worried as to what course
TO pursue in The future. Their acknowledged
leaders, with few exceptions, have proved
themselves out and out AboIitionisis They
have practced, in nearly all their doings,
large amount Of the most foul dece epton-
All for the sole purpose of furtheriDg on
their Abolition schemes The great mass
ofdhis party were and are honest; but they
have been deluded; led off, blind folded
into the meshes OF the Abolition net, where
they now are found TO be stckiug From
the founders they--or many of them, with
whom you may converse-inyariaby make
when you enter into political controversy
with Them, one would suppose their
greatest trouble to be, to fix upon some
most convenIent mode of exlricaling them
selves from all political connection with that
cannable party, known as the Black Repub-
dean alias Abol;fion party A tremendous
change will take place at our next election,
one that will cause these Abolitionisls and
political plundsrers to shver and this cor
rupi administration to trenbIe TO It's very
foundation Mark The prediction. This
corrupt and wicked party needs and will be
politically damned.

There is duelling at long range between

there are movements and preparations on
our side, and undoubtedly on their side.
for the great battle soon to be fought And
l will candidly tell nay friends that they
must make up their minds to hear the de-
tails of conflict before Richmond com
pared with the battle of the Seven Pines

ly superior to US in numbers. Their ear
nestness Is OF course greater than ours
for they fight to repel an invasion of their
homes and fresides. Their courage, as
daring, if not as tenacious as our own, is by
nature savage, and has been animated by
politics into implacable hate. They have
our own discipline an equal experience in
the camp and in the feld-and possess in
their despised smooth bore muskets, and
their cartridges of one ronnd bullet and
three buckshot, far better weapon for this
wooden fighting ground, than our boasted
Minnie rifles. No-I saw these rebels fight

wounded and captured, will wake them,

nephews in the battle. | tell you, New

pose of retreating before US as we march
into there political capital. They sit in
their trenches, and lie under their can
mons to save the Southern Confederacy.
They desire to fight. BY evacuation of
stron gholds, and retreats from positions
as of advantage, held just long enough to
weaken us by delays, they have drawn us
where they can flank US, and where they
will compel us to fight, whether we want to
or not. They consider that the coming
battle viii decide their fate, and that Of
their Confederation-that it will conclude
the war. They know its Importance. and

Rennhliean PlundererS.

The Milwaukee Necs publishes the re-
port of committee appointed by ths Leg.
islature of Wisconsin, 10 investigate the
conduct of certain Blask Republican Off
GERS in that State, and says:
"There is no method of reasoning which
can dispose OF the lamentabe fact that
nearly 50 900 900 were last year paid ont
by our State officers, for which no adequate
consideration was received.
at is evident 10 all fair minded men,
from the facts already heretofore made
public, and also from the facts presented
by the Investig Committee, that rot
only has the grossest and iuexcusable reck-
lessness and exiravagance in the man age
ment OF the public moneys by our State
officers, b u that deliberate corruption has
been rife about the State capitol. The men
whom the people placed there TO guard the
Treasury, have wantonly plundered it, and
left US their infamy and mountain of taxa
tion as their only legacy"
Thus it goes Wherever the enemies OF
the Democratic party are in power, plunder
and official robbery are the order of the
day. The Cameron, Fremont, ard Wells
thieves, under President Lincoln, have
plundered the General Government in one
year, as proven by Congressional Commito
tees, of more than seventy millions OF
dollars and in Pennsylvania. Ohio, New
York, Illinois, and other States in which
Abolition Repubicanism is in power mill
lions on millions have been corruplly and
fraudulently flched from The public. And
stolen-under the General and State Ad.
ministration, must be made up by the
honest and industrious taxpayers of the
co untry.
