bad Effect of AbolitiOmism.

correspondent of the Chicago Post,
wiring from Corinth says:
"There is no Disgusting the facts, that our
army is becoming somewhat anxious in re-
gard to our national affairs. The unnecess-
ary and dangerous agitation OF the Niger,
question in Congress is cooling the spirit and
ardor Of great many good and brave men,
whom the army cannot we'll spare. This
agitation afford to all secession sympathizefss
in the North pretext for political onslaughts
upon the administration, which were seized
upon by every rebel in the South and pub
lished broadcast to show the people OF this
benighted region that this is crusade against
slavery. The Abolitionists, in and out of
Congress, aided by the Northern secession
lists in and out OF Congress, who put forth .
ridiculous pietense OF speaking for the DEM
ocratic party, are doing great deal Of injury
to the cause in which be national armies
are engaged. Many officers are resineing their
commissions in disgust on this account
Congress ought to adjourn, or the people
ought to hang the abolition and secession
traitors OF tho North, as an essentiol prelim-
mary to the hanging uf those in the South.

GEN. MeCOok Sold.

The Memphis people are full Of glee at the
stratagems which they allege have been car
ried on by some young man named John
Morgan, Kentuckian. His last exploit is
related by the Appeal, as follows:
The heroic young Kentnckisn is as full ol
strntagem as he is OF daring. lie disguised
himself as a countryman and took wagon.
load of meal to Nashville the other day -
Driving straight to the st. Cloud Hotel, he
left his wagon at the door in charge of q
trusty follower, and went into the dining
room ofthe hotel about dinner time. where
he sat down opposite Gen. Mceook.
Gen. McCook, | suppose" said the dis
guised partisan, bowling across ihe table:
"You are right, sir" said MeCook; ."that
is my name.p l7 /"
"Well, General, If there'sno Seceshers
about, have got something to tell you right
here" 81
Looking around, the General requested his
new acquaintance to proceed with what be
had to say. @'f
"Wen, General, l live up here, close by
Burke's Mills, right in the midst OF nest Of
red hot Seceshers, and they swear your sol
diers shan't have peck Of meal if they have
to starve for it. But, General, 1 am all right
on the goose, though | don't have much to
say about it about home and 80 got wag-
on load Of meal ground, and I've brung it
down here to.day, and it's now out thar in
the street, and you can have il il you want
it,
Gen. McCook was highly aelighted-ex
pressed his gratitude to the plain looking
countryman for his kindness, praised his
loyalty to "the old flag" &c, and at once
ordered the meal to be taken to the Com :
missary Of his Brigade and paid for it 10
gold and silver. This transaction accom-
plished, the counterfeit WAGNER repaired to
Gen. McCook's headquarters, where, after
requesting strictly private interview, he
told the "Gnerap that il he would send out
$50 men tofsuch place, in such neighbor-
hood in Davidson county, he would guide
them right into that "nest ofSeceshers and
traitors where they might i'bag" large
quantity OF meat and other "ccntraband Of
war" besides a number Of the worst rebels
that ever assisted in busting up'' this ''glo
rious Union" Gen McCook fell into snare
''as easy as falling off log" and all the pre-
limnary arrangements were made, and time
and place agreed upon, for the $50 Union
soldiers to meet their trusty guide.
McCook's detachment Of l5o men kept the
appointment faithfully, and Of course Captain
Morgan, no longer disguised, was there to
meet; but, unfortunately for them, he was not
alone-he had sufficient number Of we'll
armed horsemeh to capture the whole Yam
kee iorce without firing gun. So he took
thcp quietly, and sent them swiftly to the
rear, to be exchanged in due eourse--all but
one, an officer, whom he released on parole,
ard bade him return to Gen. McCook with
the compliments Of his meal selling acquain
tance, who had the pleasure of ting him
at the st. Cloud few days before.
1t is by originating and publishing
such articles as the above, the rebel
papers such as the Memphis Appeal,
excespt to aid their cause.

Republicans enfranchise black men
and disfranchise white soldiers. p

cipation of Defeat. 20 s
The addres which has been issued
by the Democrotic members of Con-
gress to the people of the United States,
has fallen like bomb-shell in the
midst of the Abolition Republican
leaders in this part of Buckeyedom,
and created the utmost CONSERVATION.
1t came upon them like a clap of thun-
der from a clear sky; because they have
been vainly fancying that the Demo
cratic party had received q shock in
last years gubernatorial campaign,
from which it would not soon, if ever,
recover. n
They have brought ruin and con-
sternation upon the whole country, and
not being able to calm the troubled
waters and restore peace and harmony
themselves, they would, if they could,
play the part of dog in the manger, by
permitting no other persons to do it.
They go upon the principle mentioned
by Byron in his Don Juan, when he
said: ,.e W..
"Well, Wsll-the world must tarn upon its
axis,
And all mankind turn with ii, heads or tai s
And live and die, make love and pay our tax
and as the varying wind shifts, shit our
sails" .ee
The business Of shifting sails = they
well understand, having SHIFTED as
often as once year ever since the
the memorable HARD CIDER campaign
of 1910, and become SO much accus-
toned to such "gyrations' as to be able
to SHIFT at pleasure, without incommo>
ding themselves; and tits altogether
probable that whenever the present
MODEL Congress musters sufficient
courage to pass bill upon the subject,
these same leaders will find out the
great secret about TAXES, the burthen
of which must, sooner or later, come
upon the country.
Alarmed at the prospect of certain
defeat next Fall, in case the Democra>
cy become aroused, as they certainly
will, the party leaders and wire>work~
ers very naturally begin to cast about
for the purpose of finding some new
HUMBUG with which to deceive the
people, and under which they can ral>
| ly their discofaant forcFsy and although
they have time and again asserted
and been ready to SWEAR upon the ABB
clifton Confession of faith, that the
great Democratic party was dead and
buried, they now seem to be sorely
troubled, lest it will arise from the
grave and save the country and the
Constitution from that ruin which they
have been striving to bring upon them.
Although they have persistently
claimed that there was no longer any
ONE PARTY in this country, they have
lately opened their eyes vide enough
to see that there is such a thing as a
DEMOCRATIC PARTY, and they may
now be seen in little coteries at stores
and on the street corners counseling
together about the future. They see
the hand writing upon the wall, and
already their knees begin to smite each
other, in anticipation of the great de-
feat that is soon to come upon them.-
We advise them to take it easy; for
that defeat is sure to come, and no new
organization can save them. That
game is "rLAYED OUT"

Conservatism not Appreciated.

recent article in the Richmond Whig
thus discourses on Nor thern conservatism
"The people Of the North are divided into
two parties, in the present war, as in the
peace that preceded 1.-THE conservatives and
desuuctiyes. The latter our old enemies,
the aboIitionists, who are crazy people
honest, perhaps, in their fanatcism, but fit
only for straight jacket. The former nrs
our old friends, who used to declare that
they loved US better than themselves, and
that, before an army OF invasion should march
against the South, it should march over their
dead bodies. 1t seems to be supposed that
they have changed their character, and been
merged BY the war into one seething cauf-
dron Of abolitionism. This, however, Is a
great mistake. The war has not changed
their character, but only discovered it to the
world. 1t has shown them to be the ialsest
the most treacherousi and the most hypocrit-
fcal Of mankind. But for conservative mon
ey ard conservative men, it could not be
carried on a single day. Conservative cities
have provided the cash and the soldiers; con-
seryatisrn has, in fine, proved the most fornl-
liable OF our enemies. We are not aware of
single abolitionist general who occupies q
conspicuous position in the federal hosts

that if he had an abolitonst in bis army he
would cut off his ears, is the same who pro-
claims, South must be subdued or extermi-
mated The conservatism OF these is still,
however, conservatism, only it does not mean
rs we formerly supposed, the preservation Of
the constitution and the rights Of the states,
but the conservatism Of northern commerce
and manufacturers, atsny cost whatever "
the Souh--at the cost OF every life and
hearthstone in its limits-at the cost Of COM
verting its whole territory into one vast scene
OF blord and tears. That is what northern
conservatism means, and nothing else 1t is
in word, the most detestable ayarce--a
love OF money so passionate and absorbing
that it would mdrder whole people to fill
its pockets. That is northern Conserva-
