opinion upon the "Constitutionality of the
law Of our Legislature authorizing our citizen
volunteers to vote, which that paper publishes
and of course endorses We don't propose any
argument in response to it. II any one is af-
fected by the soldiers votes, and don't ike the
result, the laws of the State define the mode Of
contesting it, and the question will be decided
by the proper Judicial authority. We are salts.
fed that the law Is Constitutional. We are
equally satisfied that it would have been unjust
10 the citizens Of the State to have omitted it's
enactment, and quite as much an outrage on
their rights as on those of the volunteers them.
selves. Before TIE election, the men who now
assert its unconstitutionality raised no question
concerning it. They we're either dishonest then
or they are now. Perhaps the better opinion
lie they are dishonest all the time. But their
present conduct has one effect. It shows very
conclusively the utter insincerity of all their
former professions Of regard for the rights of the
volunteers 1t has not opened our eyes any

IlTHE 25rH-This Regiment came down Sat-
urday afternoon, and after marching through our
streets, went aboard of the steamer Decatur and
took their departure. This is q fine regiment,
presenting fine appearance, armed and equip
ped in the best manner, contrasting in this res
pect with the Regiments fret quaftered here,
the 9Th, 9th and 7tb, which entered, the service,
marched over Missouri, skirmished and fought
before they received their clothing. s5i a.
Our town wac crowded with people, anxious
fathers, fond mothers and sisters, bidding good.
bye to sons and brothers in this Regiment. It
was to US sad spectacle, which We shall not at.
tempt to describe. But on every occasion when
it has been our painful duty to witness such
scenes, and 20 take leave of dear friends, many
of whom will never return, We have been more
and more impressed with the wickedness of this
rebellion, of the men who inaugurated it, and
who are filling the whole country with mourn
ing because they we're defeated at a Presidential
election.

GoNE TO HIS FRIENDs.-The Colinth CORES.
pondent Of the Cincinnati Gazette, writing on
the 29th ult, says that a correspondent of the
tory Sheet the Chicago Times, came hither last
week, and after obtaining pass from the Pro-
vost Marshal General to Iuks, where the rebel
wounded still remain, be violated its conditions
and stayed in the rebel lines, where be was no
doubt heartily welcomed as the representative
endeavored to return, but was prevented, as he
should have been, for the violation of his pass
was not done through ignorance, but with the
intention Of communicating with the rebels.

E- In General Beauregard's letters to Gen.
Bragg relative to the rebel campaign in the
West, he suggested that in all their dispatches
they should style the Union forces abolition
lists, instead of Federals, as that would help
their cause much in the Northwest"
We don't know whether he sent the same
advice to the Tory press of this region. If he
did, they seem to have adopted aad acted upon
it. If he did not, the columns of that class OF
papers abundantly prove how their sympathy
with the traitors induces them to adopt the
identical policy which the leaders in the South
recommended as best calculated to favor their
own cause.
They told US before the election that all who
supported and approved the policy of the Pre-
sident were abolitionists, and the enemies Of
the country, and that all who opposed that po
icy we're patriots! The traitors oppose 1.-THE
Mahony'e, vallandighamers, and seymours, OF
pose it. 1t is difficult to say which are the most
earnest in their opposition. If any of them are
patriotic they all are. Isn't it a strange sort Of
logic which makes honest men of robbers, and
patriots of those who are striving to destroy
the Union? tt
The Burlington weekly hawk-eye. [volume] (Burlington [Iowa]) 1860-1876, 1862-11-08


II The Infamous Secession organs talk OF
the taxes, of the cost of the war, Of the blood
shed, Of the Encouragement OF business, and oil
the other evils resulting from the existing war.
All these they aliege are caused BY the Repub-
licans, or, a. they style them, the Abolition
ists"
They who make these charges are themselves
traitors at heart. They must mean that the Re-
bells are right, and should have been allowed to
separate from, and thereby destroy, the Union.
If the Rebels should not have been permitted to
do this, then the loyal portion OF the country
was bound to prevent them. To do this they
must of course use the necessary means. These
means are! necessarily costly, both in blood and
treasure. This dire result was caused by the
rebels, and not by the loyal. But the possibility
of imposing it, was afforded by the old traitor
Buchanan, and his Infamous Cabinet, all Of
whom we're called Democrats. Had they done
their duty the rebellion would have been pre-
vented, because it would have been impossible
The result is that aperfdious President and
Cabinet, put in power by Democrats and calling
the mselves Democrats, are guilty Of the rebel
lion, and all its unfortunate consequences. And
yet men are to be found who would place men Of
the same sort in power again! Do they think
civil war 80 pleasant that they would have il
perpetual? If not, why support traitors?

II The malice q I traitor must be as far

~ The malice Of traitor must be a. far
beyond description - big crime i beyond e1'
eusss The robber may be impelled BY want
The murderer may be instigated by sudden pas
sion. But the traitor is deliberately ceiminal,
and the offence he commits is of unspSakable
atrocity. It cannot be measured BY other
crimes. It stands alone. No others make any
approach to it, yet all others result from it.
If treason is itself SO monstrous, if, in this
country, it is without apology, what shall we
say of that class CT men who, in the North, now
openly or covertly, sympathize with it, and in
all possible modes give to it ''aid and comfort!'
bow can we depict the per6dy and immeasurea,
BILE infamy of that pack of bowling wolves, Who
in the hitherto peaceful regions Of the North
are wsging an indirect, but vindictive war upon
the country, and striving to urge it over the
precipice Of absolute and eternal disunion? :,
The Nahonys, Vallandighams, and the whole
gang of scoundrels who consort with them, ant
aid in the work of infamy, are as closely bount
to the traitors Of the South now, as they were
formerly when treason Was only talked and hat
not yet began to act They then sacrificed thu
interests of their country on all occasions to tht
demands of their slave driving masters. They
are now striving not merely to sacrifice the tenn
porary interest of the public, but to lay the na
ton itself at the feet of the Southern oligarchs
Such is the purpose Of these ineffsble Williams
who have yet the insolence to pretend to the ig
! norant and credulous that they have still some
virtue and patriotism, and really desire to put
down the rebellion! And is it not deplorable
that there are still some honest people who are
ereduious enough to believe them. sa.oa asirf

FOREIGN MISUNDERSTANDING to the
proposal of the French Minister for the Euro
pean powers to mediate in our affairs, and to
propose an armistice between the federal gov
ernment and the rebels, the London Daily
News says:
"The proposal is one which would deprive
the North of all the advantages Of the ap-
preaching campaign, which it has been pre-
pairing for at the cost of millions, and in which
its naval resources are calculated to give it Pc
cular advantages. The North is to be asked
to forego the use of its large gunboat fleet just
in the season when the rivers are full and eve
ry circumstance is favorable for naval opera
tions. There is nothing in the proposal to set
over against these disadvantages for the North.
What is more important is, that the reinforce
ment of the South, which it would be the
means of procuring, would enable the Conied-
crate government to dictate its own terms OF
peace"
On the same subject the Liverpool Post
says:
Earl Russelrs reply is satisfactory so far
rs it refuses to accede to the French Minister'S
suggestion; but ii appears to be very tepid in
its character, and to partake Of that vacillation
and half-heartedness which have characterized
throughout the American policy of the British
Government. 1t is a continuation of the bad
policy Of humoring the South and continually
irritating without quarrelling with the North ,
