what their object may be for prolong
ing a struggle that 50 far has brought
only ruin and desolation TO our very
doors, Join in the senseless clamor.--
New England and New York planned
the war not 90 much with the view Of
beneftting the negro r'ce, as to benefit
their own pecuniary interests in the
:. purchase If government securities and
i" government contracts. They have
met with the most unboundod success
in both. Still their insatiate craving
tor more would lead them to prolong
the war indefinitely, regardless cf the
destruction to life and property, smong
the lshoring poor, because in any event
tbes will therebv largely aagment and
ultimatly own these evidences of in
dehtedness. A scheme am"ng them 10

artisans, the laborers and producers Of
the West to scan with tho most scrsti

question calculated to cast q CLEAN Of
light upon their real plans, in this great
drama of civil strife :
1t is evident that theo'capitalists Of
the New England States, together

Compromise ard concession for the res

rious memories Of the past, and with
the rights Of every State and section
unimpaired is 40 part Of their policy or
patriotism. The immense amount Of
these government securities held by
these stock-brokers, money lenders and
war-gamblers must forever place them
and their interests in lii ect antagonism
to the interests Of Western men. Their
policy isto make the public debt almost
beyond computation themselves its
owners and tho West perpetual
tax payers to liqui'lste its constantly
accumulating interest. That their
patriotism should rise above their pe-
cuniary interests, involving such IN

poster,ty should hardly be expected in
these degenerate times. This immense
national debt, with the Morrill, tariffs Of
the East are designed to mako the
West perpetual bondmen and tax pay

England, and every attempt ofthe press

sentiment Of tho West Is to keep up
and perpetuate this system Of things
between the capital of the East andthe
labor of the West.
The apperhensions Of the people as
shown in the article from the Advertis.

Western producers and dealers that so
long as We depend upon the capital Of
the Est invested in long lines Of rail

green backs and government securities,
the one centered in the heart of New
England, the other stretching from the
Atlantic almost up to the very b So Of
the Rocky Mountains that from neither

The West stands ready to pay its just
proportion Of all taxes, hut 10 unwilling
