The COMMITTEES of distinguished citizens
of Ohio, who were delegated by an inn
mensely numerous State delegation. to de-
mand. as a matter Of lswSsright and Justice;
the rslssss of Mr.. Yallsndigharn, have pHb-
lished their correspondence with Mr.. Lin
coin on that subject. We regret that our
crowded columns afford no room this week
to copy It; but we regrst.it the less, as We
give our readers the benefit of Judge Mich
olas' review of the Albany letter, which
Lincoln reiterates in this correspondence
with some expansions which only made the
infamy of his tyrsnnicsl principles and con-
duct the more transeendant and iutolerable.
We venture to say, that no man in.or out of
power in this once free country would dare
display the hardihood of uttering the Ian
guage employed by Lincoln to the Ohio
delegation. unless he felt assured of. safety
in the protection of bayopets under the con-
troll Of him from whom the abominable SEN
timents, principles and practices emanats.-
We shall not here or now attempt review;
tor that Is most effectively done by auticipa-
ton in Judge Nicholas review. Nor need
we refer to the mastery and triumph amt
ability with which the Ohio Committee re-
piled to and refuted Lincoln's puerile fall
lacies. shameless sentiments, and insolenl
arrogance to the people in addressing them
in behalf of principles and practices so in
famous as, with the audacity of despot
having armies at his command, he has un.
blushingly avowed. As we copy elsewhere
comments of the independent press. we will
at present note but one of the extraordinary
propositions contained in the manifesto OIL
this most egregious buffoon that ever sat in
the seat of power. He proposes to the Ohio
delegates, that if they will affirm certain
facts and promise to do csrta in acts, he will
release Vallandighain. Was ever heard OIL
any thing SO moDstrous in logic, so inde-
corous in spirit and manner, or SO heartlesslJ
corrupt and unjust in principle? If v al
landigham was guilty, Lincoln criminatsd
himself by compounding with felony, Ia
offering to release him on conditions to b.
performed by Others and not on his own re-
pentance or any other claim to pardon; if BIZ
was not guilty, If he was not lawfully
banished-"a cruel and unusual punishm emit
unknown to the laws and expressly forbidden
by the conssitution-he was entitled to in
slant and unconditional release; so that IL
either case, Lincoln stands before the coun-
try, as he will stand through future ages, al
object Of uumitigabls contempt and scorn.

Wendell Philips Platform.
We quote from the Cleveland Herad's
report Of his speech. The Leaders report
il the same: ..-.
The fact must be recognized that this war
cannot be closed unless the evil of political
slavery Is eradicated. It must be eradicated
or there will be more wars. It is absurd,
it would be wickedness, to patch up any
peace that does not remove the cause Of the
calamities of the war. He wonld frankly
confess that he had been reluctant to admit
this fact. For two years he had poudered
the subject, and had at last been reluctant
ly convinced that lsVsry cannot exist in one
section of the country and freedom in the
other. But he was now convinced of it,
The two are Incompatible, and one or the
other must be snnihilated before there
could be any lasting peace. As Othelio said
Of Desdemona. 500
'she must die elFe she'll betraylmore men,"
So with slavery, else 1t will bring more
wars. lGress and repeated applause.

he burnt the splendid steamer Alice Dean,
but liberated the McCoombs, and marched
along eastward in Indiana towards Ohio, Of

Negro Rarbarities-

Negro soldiery has found its sphere on the
Georgia coast. Rapine, murder, and incen-
diarism are the legitimate occupation of
Montgomery and his black legions. To
lombard defenceless village, drive it's in
babitants to the woods, plumber and load
boats with the proceeds, and then burn every
habitation to the ground, is the established
mode of conducting campaign. The New
York Tribune correspondence, which should
be good authority ia such matters, thus des-
cribes the plundering and destructi on OF Da-
rien; and it is no overdrawn picture which
we present as a summary of that cores
pondence. The negroes fred vollies into
the town to drive out all who might make
q semblance of resistance, although there
were probably none but women and children
there, went to work deliberately and strip
I ped the place of everything that could be
conveyed upon their boats, and then burned
the town to ashes. Of the unnamable out
RACES committed by these loosed iends upon
defenceless women while the plund eriug
was in progress we have no account, but
| those who know the race and their instincts
will not require verbal evidence to set the
truth before them.
- On the ground that thesecr eatures pos
sess irresponsible natures, and commit
crimes as unreasoning brutes do, they NAV
find apologists. but who will champion the
cause of the man who leads them ou-a
white man, and one who is supposed to pos
sess intelligence in proportion to his station
in life. An outlaw and a renegade before
he sought bis present field, he is now poors r
in all the God-given attributes than the
worst of the wretches whom be urges on to
crime and inhumanity. Does the govern
ment of the United States acknowledge
such men and such actions as authorized?-
We hope for the common cause of humanity
thatit does not, but we cannot forget that
while cognizant of them it tacitly encour-
ages them. A debt is due to its self-respect
which can be paid in no other way than by
official chastissment which shall go out to
all the world as q sign that we deny the
right of any man to convert this war into
symbol of barbarism. Ifsuch atonement is
not made, then we may we'll derry ourselves
