a DRAFTED Preacher.
The pastor Of the Congregational Church
at New Bedford, Massachusetts,, having
been drafted announced publicly that he
could raise the $500 through the kindness
Of friends, but that he felt constrained to
decline the money and 60 himself. Sab
bath, August 9th, he preached sermon,
which is reported in the Springfield Repub-
lcan giving his reasons for going. Some
Of his sentences were these:
at is said that Edward Everett visited
the Board Of Enrolment in his district and
paid Communication money for his two draf-
ted sons, and this shows as the account goes
on to say, his manly patriotism, by prac-
tical acknowledgment Of the claims of con-
scription, for proving that he meets every
responsibility growing out of the war OH
the constitution and the Union. Not to
put too nice potnt on it, Edward Evcrcts
does well; he is an undoubted patriot; bus
it is obvious, to say the least, that If his sons
are able -Lodied men, in this case it is to be
presumed he showed his patriotism in the
very lowest form known to the law. It is
not money, but men the government wants.
And with hthis Communication money it is
very doubtful whether it can obtain the
men needed. The matter very obviously
stands thus: The highest form Of patriotism
is. to shoulder ones gun and go the next
to furnish a robust, hearty substitute at any
expense, and the the third to pay $500. I
have wife and family, and know wha:
the cndearments of home are. But other
people besides preachers have homes and
endea, ments, and am not going to exhort
them about muskets, while myself refuse
in this great hour of need to bear one 2"

.Y- In the year 1888, when residing in

jefferson wrote TO Madison as follows, the
subject Of the constitution being then un.

"Why suspend the haJeas corpus in in
surrections and rebellions? The parties
who may be arrested may be instantly
charged with well defined crime; Of
course the Judge will remand them. y +
Examine the history of England Sec
how few of the cases Of the suspension of
the habeas corpus law have been worthy Of
that suspension. They have been real
treason, where the parties might have been
charged at once, or sham plots where it
was shameful that they should ever havo
been suspended"

Post Morton Compliments.

HOSt Morton Compliments.
If dattery could "soottle the dull cold cal
Of death" many . dead sinner would smile
complacently in his coffin. We seem to be
getting every day in the habit Of paying un.
meri!ed compliments to the departed. The
other day we saw it stated that man who
had been addicted to riotous living, and
who died Of that disease, had "fallen asleep
after short illness, which he bore with
Christian resignation" Scores of people
who read the posthumous puff must have
known that there was not q word of truth
in it; but the deceased died wealthy, and
therefore, of course nobody contradcted
the fiction. If he had been poor saint,
instead Of rich debauchee, Death might
have snuffed him out without the world be-
ing the wiser for it. Not soul would have
advertised his virtues in an obituary notice.
We subscribe to tho maxim which dis.
countenances evil speaking of the dead; but
there We stop. When a usurer or swim
dler or sensualist has paid the debt of ma
:ure it is not necessary, perhaps to
"Drag his frailties from their dread abode"
unless some great public purpose is to be
secured thereby. He may have left behind
him. exemplary relations and connexions
whose feelings it would be barbarity to
wound. But if it is not necessary to tell
the truth about him, it is clearly not cxpe-
dent to assert that he lived and died in the
odor Of sanctity. The decency of silence
is the most that should be accorded to a
bad mans memory. And yet nova, days,
even felon who has been rightfully hung
is sure is receive good word from some
sympathizing reporter.

The Election.

The Election.
Elections were held yesterday in Ohio,
Pennsylvania and Iowa for Governors of
those States. The returns received last
night indicate that the nominees Of the
Union and Republican party have been
successful. Though in all these States an
animated contest took place, the great in
terest in the country was centered in the
Ohio election. The candidates in Ohio
were Mr.. John Brough and c. l.. Vallan-
digham.
1t is a fact characteristic of the troublous
state Of our national affairs that both par
ties were politically opposed to their re-
spective candidates. Brough, the candi-
date of the Republicans, is Democrat,
and the convention that nominated Vallan-
digham expressly repudiated his peculiar
views respecting the war. In fact both
nominations were forced upon the parties
and neither made from choice. Valandig-
ham was extremely anxious to be nomina-
ted by the Democratic convention, but had
not the ghost Of q chance until the admin
istration arrested him, tried him for civil
offence, Gf any by military court, and
banished him. He became martyr,
and the Democratic convention, wholly
disappearing of his sentiments respecting
the war, nevertheless felt compelled to nom.
| mate him as rebuke to despotic military
rule. AS a determined contest was to be
expected, the Republicans were forced to
leave their party and seek Democrat as a
candidate. Though The Democratic con
vention repudiated Vallandighamis,n, they
nominated Vallandigham, and though we
believe nine .tenths of the people of Ohio
were opposed to The manner of his arrest
and the manner Of his punishment, it seems
that the whole Republican party and con
servatve men of all parties refused to vote
for him as Governor, and the result is that
Brough is elected by large majority on the
home vote. Notwithstanding the intense
excitement, the election seems to have
passed off quietly.
