We find letter from Gen. Wallace in the
Cincinnati papers, which closes thus:
This is neither "Lincoln's war;" nor s'war
for negroes" nor war for conquest or glory
or party. It is the peoples war for free Gov
ernment. The only distinction that can be
made between the hero who fell at Bunker
Hill, and the hero who fell at Shiloh, is, one
died to establish free Government, the other
died to perpetuate it; both are martyrs to lib
erty. Will the people abandon their own
cause? God forbid -
So says one who was never suspected of be.
ing anything else in politics but jealous
Democrat. Having for the last two years
grappled with the terrible crime of treason,
like an honest loyal Democrat he vindicates
the motives ofthe Administration in prosecut-
ing this war, from the foul aspersions of
traitors and tories. A life long Democrat,
lighting the battles of his country, he knows
the object of fighting to be the restoration Of
an honorable and permanent peace, upon the
basis of an unconditional surrender Of armed
traitors to the Constitution and the laws Of
the land. Those who favor any other policy,
and who oppose . prosecution of the war, be-
cause it is s.Lincoln's"-for the negroes-for
party, or military dictator, is in favor Of dis.
solution and anarchy. He cannot be friend
he must be the enemy Of his country. Nc
criminal was ever detected that did not excuse
his crime. - esisA ~ fssa-''+

Clear and ForcibIe.

The matter of arbitrary arrests" and kim
dred questions is admirably stated by Mr..
Welsh, Of Belmont county, O., in speech
delivered in the Ohio Senate on the Sd inst.
He said ...- osF j
While war is raging many of the rights held
sacred by the Constitution, rights which can
not be violated by any acts of Congress, may
ard must be suspended and held in allegiance.
If this were not so, the Government itself
might be destroyed the army and navy
might be sacrificed, and one part of the Con-
stitution would nullify the rest.
If freedom of speech cannot be suppressed,
spies cannot be caught, imprisoned and
hung.
If freedom o. the press cannot be interfered
with, all our military plans may be betrayed
to the enemy.
If no man can be deprived Of life ,cithout
trial by jury, soldier cannot slay the enemy
in battle.
If an enemys property cannot be taken
without "due process Of law" how can the
soldier disarm the foe and seize his weap-
ons
If no person can be arrested, sentenced
and shot, without trial BY jury in the county
or State where his crime is alleged to have
been committed, how can deserter be shot,
or spy hung, or an enemg taEen prisonsr? F?

The Loyal National League.

The purposes of the "Loyal National
League" recently organized in the city Of
New York, are those clearly explained in the
pledge which all are required to sign:
We, the undersigned, citizens of the Uni
ted States, hereby associate ourselves under
the name and title of the LOYAL NATION
AL LEAGUE. ....
We pledge ourselves to an unconditional
loyalty to the government Of the United
States, to an unwavering support Of its efforts
to suppress the rebellion, and to spare no en-
deavor to maintain unimpared the national
snnity. both in principle and territorial
boundary.
The primary object of this League is and
shall be to bind togther all loyal men, of all
trades and professions, in . common union to
maintain the power, glory and integrity Of
the nation"
(. Among the various programmes and con-
stitutions of loyal leagues, Union leagues, and
Union clubs, we have seen none which so
well supplies the great need of the time and
so thoroughly answers the broad name of
League IS this. There is no money test of
entrance, the only condition of admission be-
ing willingness to sign and abide by a SIM
pie and comprehensive pledge of loyalty to
the Government and to the idea as we'll as the
substance Of National Unity.

az The following is the closing para
graph of patriotic letter received by us from
a young friend in the army. We can assure
him that his sentiments are heartily approx
ed by all who have the interests of their
country truly at heart:
1t makes me feel sad to think that there
are persons in the North we call copperheads,
(they call themselves peace makers,) who are
using all their influence to cause an armistice,
to compromise with the rebels who have
brought such reproach on u.s. I feel still
worse when | learn that the banner State,
Iowa, which has sent so many brave soldiers
into the field, is cursed with men who are do
ing what they can to discourage the prosecu-
ton of the war. Notwithstanding this l be-
lieve we have the power and will ere long
crush the rebellion and bring back peace to
our country. For this purpose many moth
ers and fathers heve sacrificed their sons
many sisters and brothers have parted with
their best friends-who are now sacrificing
their lives in behalf of their bleeding country.
One consolation is, I believe that Being who
has created and preserved our lives, the Giver
of all good gifts, is on our side, and the vic
tory will be ours if we put our trust in Him.
l hope the Copperheads of the North will see
the error of their ways and turn over new
leaf, and with US put their hands to the
wheel and help cause the rebels to lay down
their arms ard seek protection under the stars
and stripes. Then we will talk about peace,
and not until then. .r.. ...--
From your humble servant,
