on the aged and helpless widows who sacri-

heart that human slavery is sinful. To be
sure his views have been somewhat modified,
and his action to certain extent Modified
by the influence of his wife, who, although
not very refined or educated lady, is never
theless a women of vigorous intellect, and
possesses and maintains very decided views

WHAT THE REPUBLICANS HAVE DONE
Col. Gra,z Brown, Of St. Louis, conspic
uous Republican leader thus de scIibes the
results of the reign Of his party: 1--WE
have seen fifty thousand soldiers, the elite Of
the nation, sacrificed, and six hundred mil.
lions of wealth expended. We have reach
ed the age of assignats and conscrip:ions,
and are summoning the militia Of the loyal
States to repeI invasion.-And can any one
cognizant of our actual condition, and not
led astray By false bulletins or vanished
glories, stand forth and say, with truth and
honor, we are any nearer a solution OF the
grea. crisis than we were year ago!"
The Emperor Augustus in his despair called
out sadly, "Varus, give me back my le
gions" The Ameecan people utter the
same cry this day to the radicals, in whose
hands they have for eighteen months repos
ed power more absolute than ever August
tus welded. We see the nation perishing
in their hands, and demand Of them the
surrender of control to which they have
proven incompetent. And for this they
dare to style us, their victims and yet their
masters, "traitors!"
SWINDLING THE SOLDIERS.-I Inc NOTtul
ampton Gazette says it has good authority for
the following statement:
"A soldier was taken sick and sent to the
hospital. When he began to recover, he
craved for some little deIicacy to soothe his
nanseated palate, and asked for some currant
jelly. lie was told that he could have the
jelly but he must pay for it. lie could have
pot of jelly for two dollars. He had but
two dollars in his pocket, and with that he
was in hopes of reaching his home, as 500 n
as he was able to travel. He told his atteni
dant that he had but two dollars, aud that
he did not need the whole jar Of jelly, a
small part would lie sufficient. No, he must
take the whole or none, and he must pay
50 for it, Finally the invalid bought the
Jelly, and on removing the covering he disl
covered, to his astonishment, within the
wrapper note directed to himself, and that
this very jar Of jelly had been sent to him
by his own family. This is but one among
the many outrages perpetrated by the un'
principed men who are found in our army"
