LINCOLN is waiting to hear from the
people. BE is now taking no public steps
to enforce the Conscription Act because
he wants FIRST to be bolstered up by public
opinion. If the election in Connecticut
goes against him, and the city elections in
the West go for the Copperheads he will
be staggered. He may then abandon all

General John nVorgan.

A volume entitled "West Point and Pohti.
cal Generals, soon TO be issued by South
ern publishing house, gives orief su mmnry
OF the exploUs OF Morgan, the great Ken,
tucky partisan. They border on the marvel
ous yet they are strictly authentic. He be-
gan with small body of horse, which he
raised himself and during bis career has
brought from within the lines Of the enemy,
aud turned over 70 the Confederate service,
nearly Eve thousand men. He has generally
been at the head Of less than one thousand
men-in his famous raid in Kentucky be
started with eight hundred and seventy.Gve
and returned with one thousand and two hun.
dred He has within two years fought more
than fifty bRttles--and killed and wounded
more than six thousand of the enemy, and
hos made upward of fourteen thousand priso
ners. His expeditions have always been of
the most daring description; yet he has never,
but on two occasions, been forced to fight
when he did not wish it. Many of his battles
have heen Of the most desperate character,
aud he has been uniformly victorious He
has frequently operated hnndpeds Of miles
from support, in the midst OF overwhelming
bodies of the enemy, whose strength was
greatly enhanced by the possession of rail
roads and telegraphs stretching around him
like web, and almost indefinitely facilitating
their power of concentration, while in the
same degree it complicated the dangers of
his situation. The sagacity with which he
has always been enabled to pluck triumph
from the very jaws of these multiplied dan
gers indicates the military genius of the
highest grade.
The following is summary of Morgan
exploits in the six months, beginning the 4th
Of July, 1852, and ending 4th January, 1863:
Between 1000 and $4,000 prisoners, and
$4,000 stand ofarms captured; and $4,000, 600
worth of stores destroyed; 4,695 men raised
within the enemies lines, and armed and
equipped by himself he having received but

beside myself, that if the benigh,ed Com

had studied the Bible little, or a great

he forgotten that the Mosaic copperheads

under the control of the clique, who are
to instruct the prospective editor, Napo-

hot and when to blow cold. The Gazette
has given the clique serious otfense by
utterly disregarding the wishes of the

to be cut adrift and new organ to be
established, if possible, which will at the

Davy T. Laird, a sixth rate petifog-
ger, from Rockport, made speech'ln the
Courthouse on Saturday last Davy is
scarcely worthy of Il notice-but we will
gratity his love of notoriety by saying
that he is demagogue and always has
been. There never has been party,
Ur10ng eu-urrtnrf, Iuuttu, rbuIh- there
be conceived, by the Imagination of man,
party which he is not ready to join for
the sake of Office He was an old-line
Wing, and villiGed andopposed the DEM
ocratic party with all his strength-he
was Know-nothing-canvassed the dis
trict as such, and labored hard against
the Democracy. At the commencement
of the rebellion he professed to be
Union man, and was elected to the Legis-
lature by the Union men and Republicans
and after the organization of the Cop
perhead faction, on the Sth of January,
1862, he turned Copperhead, in order to
secure the Common Pleas Judgeship.
He is now, and has all his life been op-
posed to the Democratic party, and is do
! ing and has done all his feeble influence
would enable him to accomplish against
| it. And now he has the impudence to
stand up as teacher of lifelong Demo
Gratis. in his speech on Saturday, the
Government was the subject of four
hours string of invective, loyal men
everywhere coming in for a share quite
frequently. He said nothing sharp
nothing new-and little, if anything, that
was true. Davy is wasting his time in
vain--he can accomplish nothing for
himself-nothing for his faction, and
very little for his Southern friends. He
is utterly untitled to teach men anything
much less Democracy-and he had
better go back into his hole and drag
the hole in after him.
