..Tne soIdiers, Friends. .

Republicanism curses whatever 1t
touches and even when it processes
commendable object, (which is not otten,)
it is sure to adopt the very means certain
to defeat it. Thus, its boasted humanity
and sympathy for the negro erds in put
ting them in the front of battle, holding
them to slaughter by bayonets behind
them, or throwing them on the world,
homeless and shelterless, to die of starva-
ton or pestilence.
But the fact that the Republicans have
deprived the brave soldiers who are now
imprisoned at Richmond, of all the ycom-
forts and luxuries which they have hither-
to received from friendship and affection
at home, will awaken against these un-
principled partizans stener Indignation
than has been evoked by their utterly heart
less treatment of the negro. Despite the
constant assurance of every prisoner at
Richmond that the articles forwarded to
them by friends were faithfully and con-
scientously distributed, the organs of Re
publicanism persistently asseyerated that
the Confederate authorities withheld and
misappled whatever they received. Be
cause of this falsehood, the Confederatei
will neither receive nor distribute food o
clothing as heretofore, but announce tha
the Union prisoners will receive just sucl
rations as the rebel soldiers receive
neither better nor worse.
This is deplorable. These soldiers al
detained there, and exchange refused, be
cause the Republican party maintains thI
our white soldiers are no better than n
groes. And now, in addition to this, the
are refused all the comforts which col
siderate and generous friends seek to b
stow upon them, for the reason that t
Confederate authorities cannot bear
imputation of theft and inexpressil
meanness whicn is the only return tn
get from the Federal side for the distnb
tion of relief. Rather than have it charg
that they steal what is sent they whoI
refuse the reception of anything. This

Will they learn!

The "vigorous war mon" in the Demo-
cratic party, who profess to advocate war
for the sake of the Constitution and the
Union, ought to learn from the fate OF the
resolutions Of HOLMAN, of Indiana, and
RoLLISs. of Missouri, that the wal IS not
and will not be waged for any other pur-
pose than utter subjugation of the South
annihilation of States, AMI consequent
destruction of the Union. There are just
two sides to the question, and there is nc
intermediate position. Men must go fol
war, for the purposes and by the means
adopted by the Abolitionists, or they
must go for Peace, and Reconstruction o
the Union, with the rights of the severa
States unimpaired."

The writ OF Habeas Corpus.

Mr Harrington, Of Indiana, introduced
sesolutions into Congress on the 7th inst IN
reference to the suspension OF the writ of hG-
beas corpus declaring such snspeDsion IN
the free States, where the courts Of justice
ere not obstructed, to be contrary 70 the pro-
gress Of the age, despotic, and subyersive Of
the elementary principles on which the Gov.
ernment is based.
In view Of the fanatical and destructive
spirit that has seized upon members of Con
gress as well as q large portion Of the people,
Il may not be surprising that these eminently
conservative and proper resolutions were re-
jected BY vote OF eighty-nine TO sixty-Seven.
But the consequences OF such action must be
felt 10 the future by the people, to their sor-
row. England established this writ, gnaran-
teeing protection 10 the innocent from the
hand OF power, after bloody contest Of two
centuries 1t cost her dear struggle in
which the lives Of her sons we're freely offered.
She cherishss it now as Of priceless value.
Wherever the courts are unobs.ructed in
England in war or in peace, there the writ of
hdbedS corpus is held inviolate; and the
bloodiest revolution that England ever wit
messed would follow an attempt to suppress il;
for it is by this writ that her innocent citizens
may appeal to the courts of justice for their
| liberties, when the heavy hand of power is
laid upon their persons. The United States
copied this personal liberty bill from England
1t cost us nothing, and we do not appreciate
its worth, but part with it unconcernedly, as
if our liberties we're not largely involved in it,
An intslligent foreigner recently remarked
with truth, that the American people did not
fully appreciate the advantages of their liber-
ties--that il all Of them could live in Austria
for year or two, where there is no writ of ha-
beas corpus, but where the central power con-
trolls both the civil and military authorities,
crushing out the courts nt pleasure they would
then cling to the safeguards which our fathers
threw around their liberties, even at the ex-
pense ofrivers Of blood d-Hartford Times.

Ba- At the beginning Of the war, Secretary
Seward, in letter to our Ministers in Europe,
said ......
g"There is not even q pretext for the com
plaint that the disaffected States are to be con-
auered by the United States, if the revolution
fail for the rights of the States, and the con-
dition of every human being in them,
will remain subject to oexaetly the same laws
and forms of administration, whether the revo-
luton shall succeed or whether it shall fail.
In the one case, the States you'd be federally
connected with the new Confederacy;the other
they would, as now, be members of the United
States; but their constitutions, and laws, hab'
its, and institutions, in either case, will remain
the same"
President Lincoln is as directly responsible
for the above declaration as if it had been
written by himself, for Mr.. Seward has stated
that the letter was read to the President before
! its transmission. Can there be imagined I
moro direct contradiction than that between
the statements in this extract and the las
proclamation of the Presidentf- Chieag

General Jim Lane.

The fools are not all dead by any means
At least one Of their noble brotherhood holds
a seat in the Senate of the United States, as
any ono can see by perusing the proceedings
of that body yesterday. General Jim Lane
is fairly entitled to the cap and bells, and he
ought to be presented with them at once.
This worthy has actually introduced bill into
the Senate making it criminal offense to buy
or sell gold for speculative purposes While
Lane is about it, why don't he bring in SER
les Of bills to stop speculation in all the neces-
saries OF life 2 No one eats or wears gold,
and his prohibition of its traffic would only
affect few Wall street brokers. Under the
interdict to buy or sell, gold would go hi CHER
than ever, as any school book on political
economy wonld tell him. But take coal, for
instance 1t has been eleven and is now over
ten dollars per ton, when il ought not to be
more than eight dollars Why does not Lane
strike at the coal speculation Meat is also
one-thrd higher than it used to be. Why moi
send all the butchers to State Prison who ask
more than the old prices2. And so through
all the various articles we consume as food
