while on our way to tea. that Columbus was
under martial law and Provost Marshal ap-
pointed. But 1t turned out on inquiry that the

headed, Great excitement on South Public

are made for troops, and large sums Of money
are subscribed to aid 10 the cauEej but 1t is not

ward with the slacrity and in the numbers de-
sired. Many people appear to be surprised that
the fact Is 90, yet do not seem able to explain
the cause.
In all previous calls the ranks were filled
with cOmmendable promptnsss. The DemOcra-
ey furnished from its ranks very full proper
tlon, and, though in the minority at the ballot
box, II bad and now has decided majority In
the ranks Of the army. That portion Of the
Republican party who we're conservative In
their views also responded well; but the Aboli-
tion Wing-a large proportion Of the psrty--did
not respond to any considerable extent. This
wing Of the dominant party remained at home,
and occupied It's time in slanderlng and villify.
Ing the Democracy, and Its leaders In Congress-
aud the Legislatures of the States we're busy
inventlng schemes and plans to change the oh.
jects and purposes Of the war, and to convert It
into an Abolition crusade. Even now, with the
great demand and absolute necessity Of the
Government for more soldiers, this GLASS Of
men do not volunteer, but are busy all the
whilo In pressing their Abolition schemes, and
gusging the loyalty Of their neighbors, who can
not and will not agree with them, but are for o
var simply to defend the Federal authority,
vindioate the Constitution, and preserve the
Union.
II these Abolitlonists were 10 step into the
ranks, take the musket on their shoulders,
sschew their disgusting Abolition schemes, and
cease slandsring their neighbors, We think the
demands of the Government for troops would
be supplied In o very short time. Will they
