This ia no merely partial view Of the
matter The comparison covers the
whole Of the Republican ard Democratic
counties respectively; aud therefore is

on exceptional instances selected for

The net deficiencies in the Democratic
sections of the State amount to 24l42,

These are the irrefutable figures Of the
State records, and cannot be made to
give a more creditsble verdict for the
Democracy except by a transparent
perversion of their import.

AN ADMINISTRATION VOICE AGAINST
RESTORING THE UNION. ~

The solicitor of the War Department has
written a long letter to the Phlhdell hia
Union League against the restoration of the
Union. We quote a portion of his language,
which proves that the administration is con.
ducling the war upon false pretenses. and
tha, it does not mean the Union of States
shall be restored. Mr.. Whiting says:
As the success of the Un'on cause shall
become more certain and apparent to the
enemy in various localities, they will lay
down arms and cease fighting.
X X
Thus. for instance: When South CaroIi'
ma shall have ceased fighting she will say to
the Presdenr. I'VE have now laid down
nnr arms; we submit to the anlhoryl OF the
United States government. You may restore
your custom houses. your courts OF justice,
and If We hold any public property we give
it up; we now have chosen senators and rep
resen:atives to Congress, and demand their
admission and the fuil establishment of all
our State rights. and our restoration to all
our former privileges and immunity as cll-
zens of the United Sla,es.' Z
What will he the consequences of yielding
to this demand?
They will gain the right Of managing
their affairs according to their will and pleas
ure, and not according to The viii and pleas
ure Of the people Of the United States.
X X
Beware of commitimg yourselves to the
fatal doctrine of recognizing The existence, IN
the Union of States which hope been declared
by the Presidents proclamation to be an re-
bellion For. hy this new device of the enc
myths new aversion If The poisonous state
rights d"rl rine--ihe seres>ionists will be able
to ge, back by fraud what they failed to get
bv fighting. Do not permit them; withon'
proper safeguards. TO resume in your councils
IN the Senate and in the House, which their
ire"srn has stripped from them.
30 NOT ALLOW OLD STATES. WITH
THEIR CONSTITUTIONS STILL UNAL.
TERED, TO RESUME STATE POWERS"
Here then. al last; is an official avowal "t
the policy of the administration, in rrje l.
inc the application of Louisiana forre almis-
sion into the Union, and dec ration of
the policy Hhirh is to be pursued towards
other States sepkiny a return to it.

the Union! The administration has thrown

professions Of devotion to the Union failhless.
Now it avows its trearhprv. The friends Of
