u The Presidents Emancipation Proclama.
ton was Godsend for the Northern Tories. It
gave them pretext-it afforded them what they
had been year and half looking for, reason
for the avowal of the treason which had been be-
fore smothered out of sight. Now they openly
avow their sympathy with the rebels. Now
they oppose and cripple the Government BY ev-
cry means and in every way they can Why .
Oh, it is an abolition war; The President
. "tyrant" ani "usurper.n The "Consti.
tuition" has been violated-popular rights en-
dangered. And these clamorers have the effron-
terry to give such reason for taking the side of
the insurgents The English of it is: The
President, in trying to crush the Rebellion, has
over -stepped what We conceive to be his consti-
tutional authority. It is true be has done this
in his efforts to preserve the life of the nation,
but this shall not influence rs. Henceforward
We 60 in for the Rebellion. They are all very
loyal. Their devotion to the Constitution and
the Union is unbounded. But unless the war is
carried on as they think best and constitutional,
they fight With eff. Davis.
We venture the opinion that in all the sece.
ded States . traitor cannot be found unable to
give as good reason for bis disloyalty.

LATE, BUT COCOA bill has passed the Sen.
ate, and We trust will soon become law, which
forfeits the pay of ali officers who are absent
from their posts for more than thirty days, unless
detained BY sickness or wounds, and if absent
without authority, requires that their names be
stricken from the rolls. Something like this
should have been enacted long since. No
officer should be entitled to draw pay, without
doing service. Those who absent themselves
without leave, deserve even severer punish
ment than . +" dishonorable discharge" It is
impossible to estimate the disaster which may
result from such neglect of duty.

People who are friends Of the Union, will
wonder what right these fellows have to abuse

in which they exercise any influence, may safely
be styled the exact opposite of democratic
Democrats do not strive to overthrow the Gov
ernment,-do not seek to divide the Union,-do
not patronize rebellion, do not consort with
traitors. The Tory press of Iowa do all this,
and more and worse than this. They would like
to be considered the organs of Democracy. If
they are, 80 is jeff Davis.

Times. :
The foregoing may or may not be true. If it
is true, it merely proves that there are Tories In
New England, acting in concert With the Times,
and doing oil they can to give aid aud comfort to
the rebels. We have no doubt that that there
ore some such scoundrels to be found even in
New England. The editor of the Times 10 bim-
self native of New England. But the great
body Of her people detest his purposes and nis
perfdity As they would scorn those, who, re-
naming or coming among them, are as per6id-
iously endeavoring to carry out his infamous de-
signs. The same issue of the Times in which
We 6nd the above, also contains the Message Of
JEFF Davis, in full, and an editorial upon it, en-
dorsing the argument of Davis against our Ad-
ministration The Times has long been but an
echo Of Southern traitors. It goes the length
Of it's tether in the direction of Treason, all the

tempt to disparage the patriotism of New Eng

not value because it has them not. Eg
