A Copperhead organ On the War.
The Chicago Times Of Saturday week

A Comprehend organ On the War.
The Chicago Times of Saturday week
utters the following sentiment:
$50 long as the present political poll
cies of the war are persisted in--so long
rs the war ID continued as the war OF q
political party--every dollar expended In
it is wasted, and worse than wasted ana
every life lost in it 10 an aboniinable sac
rifce, and murder, indeed, BY those
upon whom the responsibility rests of the
prevailing politics. The man who does
not wash his hands of all participation in
such war shares the guilt of those by
whom it is prosecuted Support OF this
war and hostility to it show the dividing
line between the enemies and the friends
of the Union. He who supports the war
is against the Union, because the war is
the most terrible engine for the destruc-
ton OF the Union which Belzebub him
self could have invented.'
Here this copperhead traitor charges
that the Administration and Congress
and all who support the war are murder
ers, and the soldiers who are fighting the
battles of the country are, according to
his logic, but the bloody instruments Of
murjerers to execute their foul purposes.
Is it possible that the people of Iowa
have become SO demented as to support
party whose organs and whose logic sig-
Matte the war in defence of the Union Is
murder on grand scale, and converts
the patriotic supporters and defenders of
our Government and our flag, at home
and in the field. into murderersY Are
our brave volunteers, on their return from
their glorious mission--thcir gallant
deeds and noble sacrifices in their coun-
try's cause--to be denounced as murder
ers, by triumphant copperhead party,
or are they to be hailed as gallant patrii-
OTIS and saviors of the country by yicto-
rious Union party?

Emanclpati ON in Missouri.


The State Legislature of Missouri al
journed last Monday. Congress hsving
failed to pass law for compensated
emancipation, nothing was done by the
Legislature further than to talk the mat
ter over, and come TO an understanding
as to the proper course the State should
pursue. 1t is found that to enable the
State to adopt measures of emancipation,
the Constitution must be amended, which
the Legislature could not Z Accord
ingly the Governor is to II. assemble the
old convention, which ousted Claib Jack
son, and has already made some amend
ments to the Constitution; and as it is
understood important changes Of sen.
timent have been had among anum-
Der of members of this body, it is
quite certain gradual system OF enan-
cipation will be adopted, limiting the time
for the extinction of slavery to 1890 or
1900. If it should not be done by this
conyanion, a new one viii be provided
for by the Legislature. The old conven-
tion must, according to law, meet on OF
before the 4th of July next.
Missouri is inevitably on her march te
freedom; and may the day not be ia,
distant when she shall be free from til.
blighting curse of slavery.
