unteering is dead; conscription has been
thwarted; militia calls will not produce
soldiers. A reasonable strengthening
Of our forces will make us masters of the
situation
Having thus shown the opinion oil
rebel papers in regard to the riotous
phase Of the Democratic party, we will
close by copying a paragraph from the
Mobile Ne'cs of July lS,. expressing
surprise and pleasure" in running
over copies of the New York Caucasian,
Ne'os, and Metropolitan Record, which
were brought TO the editor from New
Orleans. Says the Mobile Ne,es
We have to thank Mr.. William A. Bell,
of New Orleans, for file of New York
papers. They are the Caucasian, the
Neacs and the Metropolitan Record. We
have read the editorials and ran over
the reprint in these journals With pleas
ure and surprise. They are as earnest
and eloquent in the advocacy OF peace,
and as unsparing in their hostility to
and denunciation of the abolition" war
against the sovereign States of the South,
as the most extreme Southerner could
desire. The editors maintain that the
peace sentiment is now dormant at the
North So true it is that the Lincoln
party looked upon the rebel invasion of
Pennsylvania as a God send to check
the growing feelings and revive the war
spirit of the North as exhibited after the
fall of Fort Sumter. The Nears
does not believe that invasion will tend
to make the North more enamored of
blood and confagration. We copy some
of the editorials of these papers. 1t is
gratifying to perceive that there are
some sentiments of humanity, justice
and constitutionalism left among our
enemies. Let US hope that they are
seeds destined to spring into life and
bear the blessed fruits of peace
Do the rebel leaders and papers mis-
take their mon? We think not. They
know they can depend as confidently
upon the two Woods, Vallandigham and
Voorhees,, in their respective fields of
labor in aid cf the rebellion, as they can
upon Lee, Beauregard and Johnston in
theirs. -
1t is charged by the democratic organs
that the Republicans are prolonging the
war and strengthening the rebels by a
mistaken policy. Why do the rebels
never express similar opinion?> How
is it they never take courage from anv of
the measures of the Administration
while they are always made happy by
democratic conventions?
These are plain questions for thinking
men, and we commend them to the read
ers of the JOURNAL. Ask your demo-
1a1tonn OF them.

Seymours majority 10,S91, or more
than his entire ma jo,ity i'll the State.
These election districts figure on our
police books as containing two thousand
seven hundred and sixty-three grogger-
les, one hundred and seventy places
where thieves and ruffians habitually re-
sort, one hundred and five policy shops,
with gambling and dance houses to
match, and also embrace the haunts of
the murderers, robbers, and incendiaries
who figured in the recent Reign of Ter
ror.
Having thus proven the political char
acter of the mob-by Gov. Seymour s
own admission, and by the vote which
elected him Governor-we now proceed
to show that the rebels properly appre
ciated its designs, but miscalculated it

We have, from time to time, laid be-
fore our readers facts-as to the correct
ness of which there can be no dispute
substantiating some or all of the counts
in our Indictment against the democratic
organization as it exists in the loyal
States. We have shown from the re-
marks OF various members of the party
that they are in sympathy with the rebels.
We have demonstrated from the speeches
of the leaders that they are hostile to the
best interest Of the Government and the
people. We have proven that many of
their candidates for the highest offices in

no sympathy for the success of the Ad-

This morning, we design showing that
the rebel papers themselves look to the

cannot refrain, nor do they try, from the

EDITOR HAwK-EYE After the lapse of near
ly amonth again address you from this city of
mud" and Triggers" During the past month
it has rained almost every other day, besides
two snow storms that would have done credit to
higher latitude. Of course we have had plen.
ty of mud, as consequence But our incon-
veniences have not been limited to snow, rain
and mud. Much of the time it has been quite
cold, and our "Shelter tents" were poor pro-
lection against cold winds and hard freezing
However, eighteen months of soldering have
made US fertile in expedients, and as we could
not get tents to make Jus comfortable, most OF
US have built log huts large enough for two, or
often four persons; sire tched the Shelters" over
them for roofs, and pointed them with mud;
thus making quarters at once, dry, warm and
healthy, much more so than the "Sibley tent
with eighteen or twenty soldier, and their arms,
&c., crowded into it; aprocess that has cost the
lives Of more men, during the war, than all
other hardships. By thorough draining we
manage to keep on the upper surface of terra
frma, and though We we're last night visited BY
