The Proof Piling Up,

A few days since o C respondent Of the
Cincinnati Gazette stated that he had
been assured. by leading citizens of Geor-
gia and Alabama.I. I.hat vallandigham. du.
ring his stay among them, had urged
them to hold Vicksburg as long as possi-
ble because his election depsnded on the
success Of the Confederates there
The Copperhead press denied it, though
their motive to lie was so strong that no
bodydoubted they did lie, and the denial
was therefore a mere waste of mendacity.
But weak contradiction has been prompt
ly met by a crushing refutatien. The
Chicago Tribune has, reudy for the inspec-
tion Of any Copperh cad who dare. TO de-
ny its authenticity, a letter written by .
rebel Provost Marshall attached to Bragg's
army. and man evidently of unusual in
telligence. in which the came fact is clear
ly and uumistakably stated. The letter
was written to friends in Western Ten
nessee AMI captured in the possession of q
mail carrier, who is now or was recently
in custody at Columbus, Ky. The writer
heard Vallandigham make the statement
in his presence. that his election depended
upon rebel success at Yicksburg.-Iad.

Scene In a Street. Car.

The following incident is vouched for
by q CORE spondent of the Christian Reg
lister:
A daughter of Massachusetts,, living in
New York. was riding in crowded street
car. An intelligent young soldier. suffer.
ing from lamensss was standing. This
lady kindly offered him her seat, which he
politely declined; whersupon city dame
occupying thenext place. gatherei up her
robes, and scornfully said she thought
things had come to pretty pass, when
New York lady offered her seat to a man,
especially soldier.
"Shame upon you madam" reioinsd
our humane friend. "have you no dear
ones in the army?'
No." was the reply, "my husband
should not Co."
"lndeed!" was the patriotic answer, II
had rather be soldiers widow than a
towards wife!''
An outburst of applause greeted the
speaker. There was happy finale to the
incident. The lame soldier soon obtained
the very next seat to the unfeelng woman
who had so insulted him. "GIory to the
woman who shows such spirit" adds the
writer.

A Revelation.

A Mr.. Henry Renish published q letter
in the New York Times. in which he
states that he hs sjust arrived from Rich.
mond, where during . residence of year
or two he had become intimate with Cap
tain Lane. of the rebel army. son oI

State. more recently Senator from Oregon,
and most recently straight out rebel, by
whom he was informed that Lees invasion

el pilgrimage. Lane was in a position to
know, and this the letter says. Is what he
knew. No rational man needs any testi-
mony but Vallsndigham g course to prove
that he would eagerly urge such . step
1t is consistent with ell he has ever doa
or said. and he is entitled to the credit oil
being as consistent as he is mptible.
And it is exactly what he declared, in his
speech at Newark. New Jersey. should be
bone to put an end to the war, il nothing
else would do it. We have no more
doubt that he urged the rebel leaders to
invade the north. than we have of his dis
honor here or his damnation heres ftsr.-
The succsss Of the rebellion is his success,
the suffering of the North is his revenge.

Let It be Remembered.

That this wicked rebellion would have
been put down and crushed out at least
twelve months ago-we think eighteen
months ago-and neither the first nor SEQ
ond draft would have been necessary, If It
had not been for the all an 1 encourage
ment given to the rebels by their Northern
sympathizers, the Copperhead Democrats.
There can be no doubt of this. The SOL
diers in the field know it; the rebels
themselves acknowledge it: and every in
telligent man here at home knows it or
strongly suspects it. The Copparheads do
not deny it.
The prolongation of the war for the last
eighteen months, has sacrificed fully tgo
hundred thousand Eces. created an addi-
tional debt of ten hundred millions, and
filled the land with widows. orphans and
mourning; and this prolongation. needless
and unnecessary, has been caused by the
so-called Democratic party of the loyal
States, playing into the hands of the re-
bellion. encouraging it to hold oft aud
fight little longer yet, in hopes of di-
vision and counter rebellion at the North.

EN- Rev. j. Sells Martin, fugitive
slave. is ono of the most popular and elo.
quent preachers in London. A paper oi
that city says Of him:
GAS our readers are aware, the Rev. Sci.
la Martin is fugitive slave. who has been
born and bred amid all the horrors of the
'accursed institution contrived to make
his escape, and by the exercise of the most
extraordinary talents. and the natural force
of his character, to elevate himself to a
rank equal to some of our most gifted and
eloquent divines. Without the buffoonery
Of Spurgeon. the dramatic extrayagances
of Bellew. or the affectation of other
popular preachers, he has all their force
and expression. Earnest, logical and SIM
pie. he proceeds step by step to the devel-
opment Of his argument. Racy and hu-
morous in his style. his illustrations are
most vivid, while his mind revels in an al
most surpassing richness of thonght and
noblenoss of sentiment. Every sentence
has the stamp of originality about it. as
all those who have had the pleasure of list
ening to him will readily testify. Little
wonder need be excited at the crowds who
have flocked to hear him since he has as.
sumcd the ministerial functions at Bromley
Free Church. and we doubt not but that
his labors will yet be blessed. in q tenfold
degree"

Gen. Gilmore.

Gen. Gilmore. now conducting the
siegc of Charleston with such energy and
sure progress. is native of Ohio. He is 9
handsome powerfully built man. of appa.
rantly 35 years of age. with brown hair
and beard, and soft and "loveable" eyes.
The impression of his countenance is ami
able in the extreme. and his manner is
self possessed. retiring. modest and .affable.
. He is simply and wholly a soldier. and
never allows himself to be drawn into po-
litical discussions. Hs defines his opin-
ions on public affairs as being inhusncei
by the determination to carry out his or
ders in the letter and spirit. whatever those
orders may be: and loyal men will there
fore claim him as straight out Union
man, One thing however, is positive
he believes in using all the able bodied
negroes as soldiers whom he can lay hold
of. and he will. therefore be charged by
secession sympathizsrs with being an abo-
litionists.

Facts for the People.

In every instance where the question
has been raised to allow our soldiers to
vote in camp. the bogus democracy op-
posed it. They defeated the measure in
Indiana, Illinois and New York, and op-
posed it with all their strength in every
other State where an effort was made to
allow them to vote.
The same party has been untiring in its
abuse of every man and soldier who as
been heartily laboring to put down the re
bellion. 1t has also carried its oppositio n
to the Government so far as to incite its
members to riots in opposition to the
draft.
Every man engaged ia shooting enrolling
officers in Indiana or any other State, la,
belonged to the bogus democratic party, and
has been encouraged to deeds of viole nee
by the leaders of that party.
Every state In open rebellion to the
laws, is a democratic State.
Every rebellious Governor is a Demo
crat.
Every deserter from the Union army is
a Democrat. and has been encouraged to
desert by the leaders telling him that he
was fighting for the negro. DC.
The Government was in the complete
control Of the Democratic party when the
rebellion commenced and it made no effort
to suppress it, but encouraged the rebels
to proceed.
Every man to-day engaged in open re-
bellion, or resisting the draft, firing in tho
rear, or in any way sympathizing with the
rebels, if he goes to the ballot box, votes
the Democratic ticket.
Do the honest lovers of their country
and her institutions, desire to &C t and be
identified with snch party.

a Rebel Prophesy,

When the rebels fired ON Sumter. on the
18th Of April, 1861, they had an 'infor.
maj gathering IN Montgomery, .Alabama,
when the traitor Secretary of War. Walk
or. spoke as follows: mo man could tell
where the war this day commenced would
end. but he would prophesy that the flag
which now flaunts the breeze here would
float over the dome Of the old Capitol al
Washington before the lst Of May. Let
them try Southern chivalry aud test the
extent of Southern resources. and il
might float eventually over Faneuil Hall

RETALIATION IN KrSD.-A private letter
from an officer connected with a regiment
of American Citizens of African de-
SCENT" writes Of the following mode ol
punishment devised by the rebels to dis
gust our white officers connected with
those regiments. After the surrender of
two companies OF Colonel Woods regi.
ment near Goodrich's Landing. the first
thing the rebels did was 20 tie two negro
babies on each of the white officers, one
straddling around their necks and one ina :
mediately in front of them. The officer
writes-"inasmuch as the children were
naked, it is not necessary for me to de-
scribe the condition Of the officers backs,
after packing .nigger baby afflicted with
the dysentery for twelve hours, or the de-
lightful odor OF the same"
But our boys are apt scholars. and hav-
ing caught two rebels the baby dodge is to
be played on them. with the additional
item of compelling them to sleep in the
guard house between two ncgroe prisoners.
