Here is the Journals plea for it's pet can

I" stand by the government, ,,

Certainly. Democrats always stand by the
Government-bY the men who formed it, and
by the Constitution which defines and regu-
lates its movements The Administration
which happens to be in power is running our
Government and overriding that Constitu.
tion. The men in power have shown them
selves incompetent to manage our affairs
and the people are falling back on the only
hope lett of saving it, the election of con
servatiye and patriotic men to power. Look
at the treasure squsndered--the precious
lives lost--the blunders of the Cabinet-the
failures in the field-the swindling OF favorite
contractors-- confessions of their own po-
litical committees TO these facts The people
own this Government, and they intend to pre-.
serve ito bring all the States back to their
allegiance-and to have a return of peace
and prosperity They do not believe It will
be accomplished by the men in power and
their Bubseryient Congress, and they will take
the matter in their own hands, Sustain the

Anairs ArOuDd yicknburg,

Operations for the capture of Vicksburg
are not progressing as satisfactorily as we
were led to believe. through sensation des-
patches, few days since, It now Rp-
pears that the YaSoo Pass expedition
proved failure, and has been abandoned.
The attempt to flank Hsines' Bluff was
not successful. and the vessels that sue
Oesded in running past the Port Hudson
batteries would have been better of if
they bad not made the attempt. On the
whole. the situation at Vicksburg Is not
encouraging. After all the immense ex-
penditure of labor and the fearful loss of
life in battle and by sickness, this Confed,
crate stronghold still bids defiance to every
assault. 1t is also reported that BANKS
has been repulsed in an assault on Port
Hudson. There is certainly nothing en-
eouraging in the operations around and
about Vicksburg. Whether it is the re-
suit Of incompetency on the part Of tho
commanders, or tho impregnability Of the
bssiegsd city, we are not prepared to say

The Result,

Labor is scarce now in every depart
msnt. Why then should the Conscripdon
Act be enforced? =? Why should the coun-
try be drained OF it's real wealth, the hard
working, laboring elassesH The reason
is plain. Let the country be deprived Of
It's laborsrs, and the rich will then clunio'
for the Introduction of slaves from the
South. free negroes, DC, to tako the place
Of the poor white man. That is the
emancipation policy. Then the rich car
get work cheap. and lord it over the land
like the masters Of the South.
