Congress adjourned without passing the

do to tickle the fancy of slave holders

INGRATITUDE.

No party has ever existed in our coun-
try so intolerans and ungrateful as the
radical republicans. Wholly absorbed BY
the single idea of hostility to slavery, they
are willing to take to their embraces
those who have for lifs-time denounced
them as fanatics and traitors to the bes.
interests Of the country. If they will at the
eleventh hour join them in hozonahs TO
the uegro-while they can find no terms
Of reproach sufficiently odious to express
their contempt and hatred Of those who
have trained with them, and through
whose ins.rumentaliry their success has
been accomplished, but whose patriotism
will not allow them to persist in policy
which their better judgments teach them
must lead to ruin and destruction.
Ben. Butler stands as prominent ex.

There is only one way Of dealing with
the grcat question Of raising men for the
army-and that is, we repeat it, by entorc-
ing the CONSUMPTION law. There is surely
nothing unfair, either in its provisions, or
requirements. It is not to be levied upon
any particular class in the commuuity. but
upon all the members Of it-rich and poor
alike; and whoever is drafted must find
substitute, or go himself. II. as the old
