And we have one billion one hundred and three
million forty nine thousand seven hundred and
ten dollars and fourteen cents OF Indebtedness
already fastened upon the country.
So much for one year of Republican rule. So
much Tor the retrenchment, reform and purity Iof
the Republican party.
Out of that debt for which the masses are to
be taxed. Cameron, Fremont and Secretary
Welles have stolen, as proved by Republican
committees of investigation, for themselves,
brother-in-law and intimate friends, several mil
lions of dollars. And "honest old Abe" sends
Cameron into exile rs Minister to Russia to pun
ish him; given Fremont new command to
chastise him; and showing his antipathy to
Welles, and condemning him for giving his
brother-in-aw, George d. Morgan, ninety five
thousand dollars of the peoples money for buy
ing boats few days in New York city, retains
him as Secretary of the Navy, and sits with him
in Cabinet meetings from week TO week. o

Foreign missions, Major Generalships and
Cabinet officers are inflicted as punishment upon
proven swindlers and robbers of the public treas

is intending to organize grand corps d'armee to
be called the "Piunderers Division" and, under
the lead OF Cameron, Welles. Fremont and their
iavorite contractors. TO send them South in the

part free and part slave, or had the Republican
party never Endorsed the irrepressibe conflict doc
trine, JEFF Davis and Toombs would never have
attempted to demonstrate the proposition, though
the four men agree perfectly in theory
Ii is time Tor Conservative OF all parties to
begin to impress upon the minds OF the people
correct ideas OF the cause of the war. The de
mocracy, actuated by the purest patriotism, by
common consent agreed to forbear discussing the
cause of the war until after the din of arms had
given way to the hum Of contented industry.
Had the opponents of democracy also remained
silent, il would have been well enough for all.
But they have never ceased the endeavor to en-
force their ideas upon the attention of the coun-
try. and to make it appear that slavery was the
cause of the war. Not only the peple at home,
but the army itself. is flooded with their per-
nicous teachings. Thousands of abolition and
emancipation tracts are distributed daily among
the soldiers the Potomac, and upon Sundays
the Chaplains-many of them-deliver stump
speeches upon the cause of the a. e., slavery,
so they say,) the eradication of the cause, the
niger and him crucifed; and all this is simply
a part of regularly organized system for poison
ing the public mind and preparing it to endorse
proclamation OF universal emancipation. which
the radicals are irving to persuade Abe Lincoln
to make, and which he may-under the plea of
military necesslty-make within the next sixty
days.
The tax bill is still before the House of Rep
resentatives, and delegations from different parts
OF the Uui0n still iniest the committee room of
Ways and Means TO protest against this or that
tax upon articles in which they are deeply inter
ested. The tax bill, when completed and law
upon the statute books of the country, will prove
an entire failure as means of raising revenue
for the support OF the Government.
1t will be a success, however in making innu-
merable places to be filled by Republican Office
seekers, who, like Oliver Twist, still crying
for more soup. But admitting that We raise by
taxation revenue of $3.50 600 ,O00 at 50 000, 900

WASHINGTON, March 81.
Absurd Abolitionists and ranting Republicans
take great pleasure in saying and re-saying that
Slavery is the cause Of the war; if you would
have peace. you must first remove the cause"
Day after day, Lovejoy, Bingham, Ashley,
Julian, Sumner Trumbull, Wilkinson, and Dry
Goods Chandler, proclaim the above premise and
conclusion.
But slavery is not the cause of this war. AL
low me an illustration: Suppose that Long John
Wentworth should take long shotgun and
Herewith shoot and kill Deacon Bross. Long
John might be arrested and brought before his
Honor Bob Wilson, who would undoubtedly find
that that Long John was the cause of the death
of the decedent. Deacon Bress, and that the gun
was the instrument.
So, hereafter, when the grand impartial tribu-
nal of History shall hold solemn inquest upon
the death of good feeling and concord among the
States OF the American Union, and investigate
the cause of the war, il will find aud pronounce
that slavery was not the cause. but that it was
the instrument in the hands of the Abolitionists.
and that they were the cause.
Justice would be cheated aud the gallows rob
bed OF its revisionary rights, if the courts OF the
country should condemn the instruments with
which murders are committed. and acquit the
persons who used them; but to do so would he
equally as equitable as it IL to condemn slavery
and let the Abolitonists escape. The former is
the instrument welded by the latter for the de-
struction of our country.
The match in the hands of the incendiary is not
the cause of the confagration, but the means OF
bringing il about: but to condemn the match and
let the house burner 60 free, would be just As
sensible as it would be to condemn slavery and
exempt the Abotionists from censure.
Had there never been a rampant Abolitionst,
there never would have been blatant seces-

OF the press:


ANTI ABOLITION SENTIMENT IN THE WEST.
A prominent gentleman, and Republican
Office holder. who has just returned from Cncin
matt and other Western points, reports a general
development of an intense anti-Abolition senti
ment in all quarters of the West since the Wen
dell Phillips riot in Cincinnati. He says violent
denunciations of Phillips and all of his kind are
heard among all classes, and that threats are
made against many Abolition members of Con-
gress that, If they show themselves before the
people of the West, they will fare worse than
Wendell Phillips did. This feeling, he reports.

equality" towards which the Abolitionists are
supposed to be tending. no white man being so
poor in his own esteem as not TO feel himself

THE ABOLITION OF SLAVERY IN THE DISTRICT OF
COLUMBIA
Some of the radical portion of Congress begin
to manifest little uneasiness at tie inordinate
haste with which the project of abolishng slavery
in the District OF Columbia has been pressed 1t

patton OF single negro, except such worthless
ones as the owners would be glad to get rid of:

would be almost as Injurious, excite spirit Of
