Success in War.

This devotion will not be upon one side
only OF any struggle. Men have fought just
as bravely and desperately for bad as for good
causes. 1t is sincerity OF conviction which
makes men determined. Philip H. of Spain
was not less honest probably, than William
OF Orange. Charles TX slew the Protest
ants In the st. Bartholomew massacre, and
the mob OF Paris dictated the slaughter of
the loyalists OF the Vendee. Marcus Anre-
Illus honestly hated Christianity, and Chris
tlan courts have honestly hated heretics and
burned them. The hand OF Providence
neither rescued Servetus from Calvin nor John
Rogers from Mary, nor Sidney from James
nor Mary Antoinette from Marat For the
eternal laws Of morality act through human
means. Washington aud Lafayette, at Bran.
DIVINE, were unquestonably fighting for that
liberty which is the condition o; human pro.
gress, but they we're defeated. The potato
pop.gun OF a saint will not save him against
the Snaps rifle OF sinner. The saint can
not succeed unless he obeys the condition of
successes, aud il he have not commoa sense
his sanctity will not save him.

recently, by Col. Frank A. Eastman, formerly
editor of the Vermont Patriot, and Hon. Matt.

Eastman resides now in Chicago, and Mr. Car

men We're sturdy Democrats before the war
They are now stout supporters Of the war, and
of all measures for its vigorous prosecution.
Their speeches were able and eloquent, and en-
dorsed fully the emancipation policy OF the

The INDIAN WAR IN MINNESOTA. Col. Sibley
sends TO Gov. Ramsay report of an engage
ment with the Indians at Wood Lake, Sept. %
which lasted for two hours, when the Indians,
repulsed at all points with great loss, retired
with great preclptancy. The Indians were 50
severely punished that they sent flag of truce
into the camp to express the sentiments OF the
Wahpetons, composing part of the attacking
force, and to state that they were not strong
enough to fight our troops, and desired peace,
with permission to take away their dead aud
wounded. Col. Sitley replied that when the
prisoners were delivered up would be tine
enough to talk of peace, and that he would not
grant them permission either to take their dead
or wounded, Col. s. is assured by half breed
that there is serious depression in the Indian
camp-,nany having been opposed to the war
but driven Into the field b7 the more violent.
The Indians had thirty killed and large num-
Der wounded. our soldiers were killed, and
between thirty and forty wounded.

CANDIDATES FOR SPEAKER.-There SCENE to be
difference of opinion respecting who shall be
Speaker this TALL. Sometimes since we sug-
gested that, as MIR Hunton had served but two
years, and his predecessors occupied the Office
three years, he would probably be reelected.
The Burlington papers seem to think that Hon.
John G. Smith, of St. Adams, the managing
man in the Vt. & Canada Railroad Corporation.
will be elected The Bennington Banner pre-
diets that A. B. Gardner Esq. of Manchester,
will be the successful candidate. And we have
no doubt there are twenty others who are self
denying enough to take the Office if 1t should be
pressed upon them.
The North Star, in commenting rather dis
rustiully on the Emancipation Proclamation,
says:
1t seems to US that there never can be any
thing like social and political equality but that
the poor black man will be worse off, if possible,
than before he was enancpated. But in
these apprehensions we may be mistaken. We
really hope that time and the progress Of events
will speedily and efectually qlell the rebellion.
followed by a restored Union, with The slavery
question forever at rest.
VIII the Star elucidate it's wish little
more fully What does it mean by time and
the progress of events !" If it had said " pro-
gress of orr armies, the meaning would have
been clear, and perhaps that is really what our
contemporary means, We would like also to
know whether the Stor supposes that anything
but emancipation will set" the slavery question
at rest" And il the Star hopes to sec that
snd. and does not approve OF emanelpatlon,sin
what other way does 1t expect to see its hopes
realized
