THAT'S So.-The Baltimore american of a
recent date says:
This rebellion is not to be put down by any
kind of conservative oratory or resolution"
making. That was tried thoroughly at first and
with the "Ciittenden compromise resolutions"
The atrocious foolery of that period even now
makes one feeliindignaHt, as we think ofihe part
taken by such men as Mason. Benjamin, Davis
and others, in manoeuevering merely to gain
time, and with no purpose whatever of accept
ing any terms at all which should stop them
short of an appeal to arms. They have sought
the latter, insisted upon it let them get sufi-
cheney of what they were after aud let the ma
ton frown down all attempts to make terms for
them until they are thoroughly whipped-as
thew richly deserve.

:. nnopus The time has come for the adoption
of more decisive measures Greater anlmus ana
earnestnegs must be infused into our military
movements. Blows must be ruclS at the vital
parts OF the rebellion.

ter under the Federal flag.
Shall we sit supiuely by and see the war sweep
off the youth and strength of the land and refuse
aid from that class Of who are at least worthy
foes Of traitors and murderers of our Government
and of our children
Our armies should be directed to forage en- the
enemy, and to cease paying traitors and their abet
tors exhorbitant exactions for food Deeded by the
sicl, or hungry soldier.
Mid and conciljatory means have been tried in
vain to cali the rebels to their allegiance. The
conservative policy has utterly failed to reduce
traitors to their allegiance and to restore the SUI
premacy of the laws. They have, by sweeping
conscriptiops, gathered in countless hordes, and
threaten to beat back and overwhelm the armies
of the Union. With blood and treason in their
hearts, they faunt the black flag Of rebellion in
the face of the Government and threaten to butch
or our brave and loyal armies with foreign bayo-
metz. They arm negroes and merciles savages in
their behalf.
Mr. Lincoln the crisis demands greater efforts
and sterner measures. Proclaim anew the good
old motto Of the Republic. Liberty and Union
now and forever, one and inseparable," and &c
cept the services Of all loyaJ mr., and it will BE-
in your power to stamp armies out of the earth
