At Last

That there have been enormous frauds
on the Treasury during the last year we
admit Republican 9th March.
When G. & sentence was written, Mr..
Lincoln had been just one year President
of the United States. Our readers will
bear us witness that it was only after the
most pertinacious efforts that the admission
is forced from the DR.. and he is himself
to blame if more has lately appeared than
he could digest, on the subject of frauds.
1t was his own persistent denials of cor.
ruption which forced us to re-terate our
charges, and now having admitted the fact,
the subject is dismissed. We never strike
a man when he is down, and as the DR.. has
covered the whole of the time of the ad =
ministration, we have nothing more to
urge.
That Mr.. Lincoln was deceived in the
men he had called to his counsel we be-
lieve-and have cause to belle eve.-But
whether he can and will resist the abolition
pressure upon him, we do not know--we
sincerely hope he may. The abolition
element is now much more dangerous than
the secession element. He seems to have
checked the one will he deal with equal
frmuess by the other We shall wait and
see.
His dismissal of Fremont, his ousting
of Mr.. Cameron, his appointment of STAN
ton were all steps in the right direotion,-
May he continue in that path. There are
more of the men surrounding him who are
not the men they should be; and while
their dismissal is possible, it is said the
President explains the delay by the follow.
ing anecdote. An old friend from Spring.
field lately called to see the President
After the usual greetings, &c, "Lincoln
(said he) when you turned out Cameron,
why didn't you turn out all the rest of your
Cabinet ~ "That (said the President)
makes me think of something that took
place near home, in Illinois. An old far
mer had been pestered with a colony of
skunks, that deprecated nightly on his
poultry. He determined to be rid of them,
and finally succeeded in getting them all
into one hole, where he could kill them at
his pleasure. He drew one forth by the
tail, and executed him, but, (said he, tell
ing the story, this caused such an infer
nal stencil that was glad to let the rest

sa- Intercepted letters from South
Carolina and Georgia speak of a general
movement of troops thence to Manassas
The trains are bringing North large bodies
of men, mostly, however, raw levies, in-
sufficiently armed and equipped. The
Rebel army behind the batteries on the
lower Potomac has been recently much
strength ened.
Since the above was in type tho papers
informed us that the blockade of the Po-
tomae so long maintained against the
government, has been raised, and the ri iv-
er is open. Subsequently too, the tele-
graph reports that Manassas has actually
been evacuated and is now in the hands OF
our troops; the rebels having retired tc
Madison and Gordonsville Junction, cr
the road to Richmond. In the west and
southwest wherever our troops apeared the
rejoicing seems to have been sincere; and
we are indebted for the demonstrations to
the fact that Gen. Halleck being Demo-
crat, refused to countenance any niggei
stealing, emancipation or abolition dec

The Old Song.

Begs A life long Democrat-not Of the
bogus faction, but one who loves his coun.
try more than party, and who hates trai.
tors worse than he does Republicans -
called our attention few days nee to the
recent issues of the Columbia Democrat.
Can it be possible, said he, that such
paper is loyal! Can it be that an editor
that will fill his sheet with continual fault
finding of every movement of those en-.
gagged in suppressing this foul rebellion
instigated by the late leaders of the Dem.
ocratic party, and with special pleadings
in behalf of such men as Floyd "the
thief is actuatel by patriotic motives !
Certainly not. a certain class take and
read no other paper. No wonder that
these should have sympathy for the rebels.
Fortunately the influence Of the Democrat
never very extensive, is rapidly waning.
Columbia co. Republican.
Now DR., you ought to know that cock
won't fight. We have often observed that
when You get into tight place you lug in
that ''life long Democrat" CT yours, whom
you keep standing in your Office for instant
service. We ell understand that dodge.
And we all understand too, the insinuaton
of disloyalty, when Democrat exposes
the corruptions of the Republicans. That
game is now played out DR.. and you are
too shrewd man not to knowit. Itwon't
even impose on the "back townships"
Besides that, we are not finding fault
with "those engaged in suppresssg this
foul rebellion"-we are finding fault with
those who stay at home and buy linen
pantaloons, straw hats, red herring, and
brown stout, to clothe and feed "those en-
gagged in suppressing this foul rebellion"
The men who cheat the soldiers and swim.
die the government, the men who get con-
tracts, and sitting at home, sell them at
enormous profits, the men who seize this
opportunity to enrich themselves at the
cost of their country; those are tie men
engaged in suppressing this foul rebellion
are they? we rather think not, and the
people think not.
But if it is disloyal to expose stealing
republican, what then is to become of
Dawes, and Van Wyck! What will you
do with Hale who wanted to hang them
What with Mr.. Lincoln who turns them
out of Office and banishcs them from the
country! The struggle to conceal facts and
prevent investigation was long and fierce
but thc frauds were too glariug, too stu
pendous, and people are beginning to see
where tho money goes May they see it
come back shortly.
We are ware our expositions have star.
tied some tender toed republicans that
we published anything untrue--But be..
cause it was true. ONE stopped his pa,-
per. Think of that. 1t was too much for
him.
1t wosh be very consoling Dr., if you
could only believe it, that "tho influence
of the Il<mOcrat' was really waning. But
you don't believe it-you know better-In
fact the Democrat never stood fairer with
all classes Reliable and Notwithstanding

them with stock not worth ten dollars a

cry to await the dispotion of The case.-
Gen. Dix telegraphed the fact to Col. De
Forrest, tie commander of the regiment,
and that gentleman succeeded in finding
nearly all the horses in the Baltimore liy-
cry stables.
Now that the hangers on of this admin,
istration are so extensively engaged in
horse dealing, could not some of them
manage to trade off the "Woolley Horse"
for something useful. We don't know any
one horse by which the government has
lost so much money. Wont somebody trot
him out?
