Governor Yates, of Illinois, has addressed the
following letter TO President Lincoln, under date
OF July Ii:
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
SPRiE1FEIn H., July IL.
Pf6si8sni Lincoln, Washington, D. G;
The crisis OF the war and Of our national ex-
stence is upon us. The time has come for the
adoption oi more decisive measures. Greater
auitnus aud earneslness must be infused iuto our
military movements. Blows must be struck at
the vital parts of the rebellion.
The Government should employ all available
means compatible with the rules of warfare to
subiugate the traitors. Summon to the standard
of the Republic all men willing TO fight for the
Union. Let loyalty, and that alone, be the divi-
ding iue between the nation and lis foes. Gen.
erals should not be permitted to fTitter away the
services of our brave men in guarding the prop
trty Of traitors and in driving back into their
hands Loyal blacks who offer us their labor, aud
who seek shelter beneath the Federal flag.
Shall we sit supinely by AMI see tle war sweep
OF the youth aud strength Of the land, md refuse
aid from that class OF men who are at least
worthy foes Of traitors and the murderers of our
childrenf
Our armies should be directed 10 forage and
quarter on the enemy, and to cease paying trai-
tors and their abetiors exorbitant exaetons for
food needed by the sick or hungry soldier
Mild and conclintory means have been tried in
vain to recall the rebels TO their allegiance The
conservative policy has utterly failed to reduce
them TO obedience and restore the supremacy Of
the laws They have by menus OF sweeping
couscriptious gathered in countless hordes and
threaten 10 beat back and Overwhelm the armies
of the Union. With blood and treason in their
hearts, they Aauat the black aig of rebellion in
the face Of the Government, and threaten to
butcher our brave aud loyal armies with foreign
bayonets They arm negroes and merciess sava-
goa in their behalf.
Mr.. Lincoln, the crisis demands greater eforte
aud steIner measures. Proclaim anew tho good
old motto of the Republic, "Liberty aud Union,
now and forever, one aud inseparahle," and ac-
cept the services of all loyal men, and it will be
in your power to 9tamp armies out of the earth,
irresistible armies, that will bear banners to
certain victory.
Illinois already alive with the beat of the drum,
aud resounlng with the tread of new recruits,
will respond to your call Adopt this policy,
aud she will leap like flaming giant into the
fight. This policy for the conduct OF the war
will render foreign intervention impossible, and
the arms OF the Republic invincible. /. will
bring the conflict to speedy close, and aecure
peace on a permanent basis.

Governor of Illinois.
