virtues; they deliberately calculate the Pront they can
make BY replacing government Of consent by a gov
s,Dmsut of force They tell as the result OF their
calculation, that they can better Afford looking to ma
,sra interests to spend al they have than surrender
their hold on the industrial resources Of the South
This money consideration is beyond doubt the grand
aud controlling ore with the moneyed classes of the
North but We. shall detect very different and very
powerful one, if we look little below the surface, in
uencng the great mass of the manufacturing and la
boring population. These people, OAiug to their social
status and the preschngs Of their penny papers, have
for many years been nthe habit of looking upon than
selves as very inferior of beings to the in6abi-
tants of the South. Toe oapin.hand feeling was the
predominant one with them, when in the presence OF
Southern gentleman. But, enjoying the inestmhble
blessings of universal suffrage aud reaiy-nade clothing
and feeling their numerical superiority, their souls have
become poisoned with envy and malice; and their pre-
sent uprising very much of the nature Of serve in
surrecOn It's prototype is to be found in the rebellion
of the French peasabtry Of SO against the ancient
Regime If the objects OF their jealousy envy and hate
we're within their power should no dotbs speedily wit
ness the same depOrabe Of massacre
and devastation which disgraced France. But they
are fierce race and inpatient Of the superiority of
gentlemen, We hope they will fad t subjects which
indulge their avOrte passions at their own dOOIsin the
lords of the loom, the prinCeY merchants and rich
bankers, who are trying to thrust them upon US.
The two causes which have combined to array the
North in arms against the South and seek its sutU-
tion are on the Pars of the mOneyed class epidity
and on that of the lAbOrug class envy and hate Of
Southern gsHtiIity We cannot yield to the lust of the
former and is unuteraby repusve to all feelings
to become blackgdArds to crafty the latter.

Our Independence.

The new Attorney General o: Great Britain echoes
the doctrine of his predecessor that the Confederate
States cannot be recognized until they have achieved
their Independence. This is not legal opinion, because
there is no law, precedent or reason to sustain it.
But it is the position OF the Ministry and the Attorney
General accoumOdatngy supports tina; position With the
sembauce of authority. But if the opinion sus
tanned BY bOtHraw and gospel, it would not apply to
these Safes which have been else than ndepen-
dent ever since they weSe Acknowledged by the British
Government so to be- three quarters of century ago
We are rot fighting to acquire independence but to de-

1.-THE people of the Southern States, says the Charee
ton Mercury, have been represented by their North
ern brethreh as an ndO and unstable race full Of
unreguated passion, unmethoiic, and lacking persist
ent vgor. The time has when this SANDER is to
be put at rest before che eyes of the world The states
men and generals of tina Union come for the most part
from the South. And although cue people Lave not
engaged in occupations giving sharpness in trade and
enterprise in speculation, they have always been a
steady, deliberate and abOrous people. No: much
eustomed to act in masses, there individuality aud
sepose in their character easily Disconnected and
giving 6Kedness their purposes, consistency to their
efforts. These traits eminenty possessed by the
Southern people. Accustomed to responsibility and
command, danger develOpes their manhood, and will
manifest that they are neither light nor degenerate
race but capable now they were in 76 and 1872 aud

Stewards SPEECH AT AUBURN.
The following are extracts principal points in
Stewards speech at Auburn the night before the
New York election:
THE IsscE OF THE WAR.
have another ground for knowing that you will
succeed to morrow. You have the right side upon
a plain, practical, simple issue. Our opponents do
not see this they have suffered faction to blind
them. They say that they are voting down this
administration, because ii is incompetent and ought
never to have been elected. They say, again. that
they are voting to decide the Presidential election
of 1864. They doing no such thing. Abraham
Lincoln was elected in 1860 TO be President of the
United States for four years. viz: from the 4th of
March 1861 to the 4th of March, 1865, fairly Just
ly, honorably, constitutoDally elected. The ques-
ton is not whether heOught to have been elected
in 1860; that was settled in the election of 1860
and is reversible The question is whether not he or
any person connected with this administration shall
be elected in 1864 That will be settled in the cleo
ton of 1864. Abraham Lincoln was elected 1860
to be President not of part but of the whole
United States but he has been forclby kept out Of
a part of the United States-Louisiana, Virginia
North Carolina, South. Carolina Georgia and other
Gulf States. In those States he Is President de
lure but not de IctO. The object of election is the
object Of the war. 1t is to make Abraham Lincoln
President de 1actO from 1860 to 1864 in Georgia,
South Carolina and Der Gulf States as he IS Presi-
dent de .facto in Massachusetts,, New York and
Ohio
NO PEACE UNTIL ABRAHAM LINCOLN IS PRESIDENT OF
THS wHoLD UNITED STATES
l. know the war waged for that object will sue
coed, and know elections held for the same object
will succeed They will succeed because the object
is just and justice. In politics is necessary 1t is
injustice and downright robbery of Abraham Lin
coin, and the majority of the citizens who elected
him. to refuse him the enjoymnet of the authority
conferred upon him in that election, There can BE-
no peace and quiet until abraham Lincoln is Pres
ident under that election, Of the waols United
States Now, justice is an instinct of the whole hu-
man family. If man has house. horse, or a
boat and it is taken from him, all society combines
to restore it to his possession and it awards severe
punishment to those who attempt to rob him of his
rights.
The result to be attained is as important to our
opponents as it is to US. What if through battle
aud suffrage, the President who elected in 1860
should, by his opponents be kept out of the Presi-
dency of the United States until another election
What if they should then succeed in eleetng Pres
dent in 1864 against the majority who elected Abra-
hap Lincoln in 1902 Can that majority be ex-
pected to acquiesce without voting and blood shed,

TIER SLAVERY NOR SLAVES IN THE LAMP.
The abettors of the rebellion are troubled TO-
earwe shall not leave to the rebels when they haN
Submitted enough of slavery and slaves. Inc
want to know what we propose about that M
answer is, that if they had submitted to Aoranai'
Lincoln at the beginning they would have retained
the whole They haUe lost by their resistance, or

month of prolonged resistance increases the toss'
and they are UeTging upon the time eohen Su0naaS
sion, coming too Ldte ao leGce neither stG0ery nor
sLaCes in the land This question of slavery is Their
business not mine. So long as they propose M
surrender they are entitled to ask no terms. What
has happened to slavery thus far, has been the
legitimate fruit of their own crimes; but 1t was
fruit ordained not by man, but of God. without
seeking to divine His ways, think the future will
be like unto the past. The inSuTrectiOH aolH per-
ash under military pO1Oer, necessarily and there
fore lawfully exercised, and Slavery a0'" perish

DOORS OPEN Always TO THE PRoDIGAL son.
Nevertheless, am aoilLing that the prOdigGt son
shall return IhedOOrS, So far as an concerned,
shall aloayS be open to him. The longer he is con-
tent to feed upon husks the sooner he will hunger
The longer he is content in his dalliance with the
harlot of rebellion the greater will be his ultimate
disgust with her embrace. The greater his hunger
and disgust the deeper will be his repentance and
the more lasting his reformation.
But NO INVITATIONS.
I shall send no iH0itatiOns after him, and yet,
speaking not for myself but for you and the whole
American people, | express the conviction that
neither man nor angels prevent the fatted calf
being slain for his welcome when he does come back,
saying patiently, Brothers, have offended, and
desire reconciliation"
