How the Votes of S0ldiers for AbOlit ION
Resolutions are Obtained,

We showed this up the othes day In the case
Of certain Abolition resolutions said to have
been adopted BY an Ohio regiment A radical
paperu North, the Sapdusky Register, calls
our expose "tWaddle," without In the least
impugning the correctness Of the facts stated.
Since that article was published, We have seen
numerous letters from private soldiers, both In
print and In manuscript. proving that the facts
In regard to the military dictstisn and fraud
practIeed upon the soldiers on the alleged pas
sage Of Abolition resolutions, were under In
stead of being over-stated. The following is
specimen. Il is an extract from q letter In
the Chicago Times, written by q &c Soldier" In
the 6lst Illinois Infantry in camp at Bolivar,
West Tennessee: - : lA@7'''@~ i'loi
Some Of. tho commissioned ofie.Fs met here
some days since--none othere being admitted
In the roOm--and drew up set Of resolutions,
one Of which condemned the Ilinois Lcglala-
turo, but, being so covered up with words, II
was hardly disccrnible; basides, some, OF the
resolutions were very good And, as they were
all voted on ae one, large nurnbere of men voted
|, for them, not knowing what they were voting
/, for. The vote was taken en- dress parade
After the Adjutant had read them, and the
commander of the regiment had exhorted all

! voted should come to shoulder arms at the
, command. When he gave the command, II 10
true, that many obeyed It; but half Of them
} knew not what they were voting for. Some
shouldered their arms because othefs did, and
afterward admitted that they did not know for
what 1t was done, saying that II the vote was

! resolutions. But. when shoulder-straps, court
martlals, aud military penalties are 80 nu-
merous, upon the least preterise, against the
: rank and file, the soldiers have to submit TO
q the example as well as the direction Of thelr
= superiors. Under such circumstances thous-
ands of men would submit to such resolutions
whose private opinions were directly to the re-

Of military despotism they would assert their

surrectiOn- l-le ~,
Among the warlike incidents of the Poli.f
insurrection, the battle of Wengrow furnishes
one Of thrilling interest. On the 5th of Feb.
rusry q large force of Poles found themselves
surprised by the Russians in equal numbers
but In much more favorable position. A re-
treat Of the Poles was as necessary as Il appear
ed impossible. At this juncture two hundred
mobiles, most Of them young men of twenty
years, offered TO sacrifice themselves for the
good Of all; they mounted their horses and
charged fuIiously upon the twenty guns Of the
Russian column. For fifteen minutes they kept
the attention of the enemy occupied; at the
end of that time q charge Of Russian infantry
settled their fate, and it is said that every mar
of them perished or was captured. But the
main body had meanwhile made good their re.
treat; and when the enemy had again time te
look about them, the Polish force bad reachet
q place of advantage, from whence their frC
kept the opposing army In check.
