E1-It is said to be definitely ascertain
ed that at least half million OF men have
been killed since this "cruel war; COM
menced. This does not include the thou
sands who have lost their lives by sick
ness and exposure, consequent upon their
connection with the army. Half mil
lion of men killed in less than three years?
What a terrible and bloody sacrifice to
the juggernaut Of Abolition? And still
the cry of the insatiato monster is heard
for more blood. New victim are called
forth to be crushed beneath its ponderous
march, and widows walls and orphans
cries pierce the very heavens, but seem
not to touch the calous hearts of the cor
rupt men who are urging on the conhie
and piling fuel upon the forked flames o
passion and hatred. Fortunate, indeed
will these guilty wretches be, il in th'
end they escape the judgment pronounced
upon him "who takes up the sword"

pg-The Washington Union says it is
definitely ascertaiued that the number Of
soldiers transported at Government eX-
pense to vote at the New York election,
will not fall short of forty thousand. Re
publican government is simply mockery,
when an administration can thus use its
power to defeat the will Of the people.
How slight the tenure by which we hold
our libertiee ? 1t is to be hoped that the
people will awaken from their delusion be-
fore it is too late, and all is lost.

Eg-The attempt is being made by the
Abolition party to rule or ruin the coun-
try through the agency of secret political
disunion leagues, a Generd Council of
the Order is to convene in Washington
early in December. Beast BurLER
heads the list of delegates from Massa-
chusetts, If this iacobin order had no
other crimes, the connection of BuTLER
with it, would be sufficient to damn it in
the eyes Of all honorable men, There are
no greater foes to republican institutions
and civil liberty than these same secret po-
litieal organizations. This will he fully
demonstrated ere long.

and shell flew thick and fast. We could see
that the rebel shnt fell short, while those from
our batteries and gunboats burst In the midst
Of the rebel batteries. The firing lasted until
snnsst, but the result Of the engagement was
NOT fully known. The rebels were seen car

Duiirg the firing the rebel rams came out
behind Sumter. and proceeded down about
two miles from that fort, where they resnain-

Illuminated for several hours, by an extensive
