American Question" represents the question a
issue in our war 70 be, on the part of the North.
to arrest the extension of Slavery, with view
to its ultimate destruction; aud on the part a
the South, to expand it, with view to its per.
petuation. 1t says that the people of tie
United States will yet sing hymns Of praise 10
the men "who shed their blood and lost their
lives for obtaining the complete triumph of the
sacred idea of Liberty" 1t dwells at length
on the anxiety which all :" LIBERAL Europe"
felt in consequence of our disasters, and of tho
great relief which was afforded to it by tho
great successes of Gettysburg and Vicksburg.
Such facts show clearly which Of the political
parties of the United States is regarded by the
Democracy of Europe as the representative Of
Liberty and Progress, and which as the repre-
sentative and accomplice Of Despotism.

We can assure our correspondent that tho
Assessors have generally done their whole duty.
and that he may undoubtingly expect tho
Collectors to do likewise. But the Income Tax
is novel in this country, and time is required to
adjust and enforce it. II any man thinks no
will escape it BY refusing 70 make the required
return, he will soon be undeceived. Failing To
respond to the Assessors preliminary notice Is
a clear admission that the correspondent Is
liable TO the tax, and the Assessor will in due
time act on that presumption. But this cannot
and should not be done in hurry.
Ii our " Reader knows persons who ought
to pay Income Tax, who have not been assessed,
il is his duty and his interest TO send the name
and residence of each to the proper Assessor.
The information will be thankfully received.
But we are confident, thu the names of those
who ought to be assessed are far more generally
on the Assessors books than our correspondent
supposes. Ifnot already there, they Will De-
We who have paid our Income Tax justly insist
that others shall, nav likewise. Ed

These adverse results were achieved under
the following influences;
/. The absence Of not less than Three Hundred
Thousand Ltgol Totcrs Of these States in the Ar.
lies Of The Union, who were thus precluded from
voting, and of whom at least three.fourths
would have voted the Administration tickets if
at home. This is no guess but the mto of the
actual voting of all the soldiers who hare voted
in the field for officers Of their several States.
Those of Pennsylvania did vote in 1861, but
were estopped in 90 by a decision Of their su-
preme Court that the law authorizing and en-
abling them to do so was unconstitutional. The
Others voted in 1862. Their votes were as fol-

fixed" to secure the nominations for Register,
Mayor, Judges. &C.. must stand back or be
showed back. We must have candidates who
are entirely above soliciting nominations, or
working wires to obtain them. A very large
share of them must be Union War Democrats,
and all such as Democrats who love their
country and mean to stand by her in her
perils will readily vote for Thousands
of German as well as of Amercln.bOrn Demo-
Gratis will now vote the Union ticket if the right
names are on it. To get them on, therefore, is
the duty of the hour.
II will not do to trust for this to the ordinary
party machinery. Under this, delegations are
packed to nominate particular men, and to trade
with other delegates to secure such nomination.
Almost any ten earnest Unionists in our city
could in one evening settle upon better array
of candidates than is usually presented. Let
the people, then, Of once open discussion of
the merits of possible candidates-let them ask
each other in the streets and at their respective
fresides, not who ranfs this or that post, but
who il manied by it. Let Us have four candi.
dates for Senators of whom we shall be proud
who will be recognized as making sacrifices by
to serve-with seventeen Assembly,
men, Mayor, Register, &c, TO match. Let US
all resolve to have such candidates, and they
will be forthcoming. And with such we can
possibly carry the City, certainly improve It's
vote. Let Principles and Mem be our motto.
and We shall advance to victory.

TO POSTMAsTERS.

When any subscribers refuse to take
their papers from the Post Office to
which they are directed, it becomes the
duty of the Postmaster to apprise the
Editor of the fact, that be may not be
subjected TO the expense sending them.
The Postmaster can do this by return
ing to the Office of publication, copy
of the paper containing the name Of the
Post Office and the name Of the su6scri-
Der upon 1t. We have called attention
to this, because We have been informed
that some postmasters neglect their du
ty in this respect, and allow the Editor
tosend his paper for months to persons
who have died, or moved away, or re-
fuse to take it from the office.

and further, if said charges were not
tried within reasonable time, Ito be

FOR THE sPECTAT0R.
TO THE LADIES OF STAUNUON.


Ladies, please read this, the soldiers appeal.
I hope the truth Of these verses you'll feel.
May you think it your duty to do as say,
IF you do you'll have sweet mem'ries when your heads
turn grey.
If you come to see them, tits all that they ask,
To see them now and then, is not much Of task,
IT'S true, ladies visit here, for two have seen,
IT'S like angels visits 'sfsw and far between"
1t is the soldiers dear ladies' who make this appeal,
W no have stood by their country through woe and
through veal
Many from sickness and wounds, in Staunton left
Who of kindred and friends are forever bereft.
Who have never failed on the march, nor finched on
the field,
Who have made of their breast for their country a
shield
They have CALAMITY gathered from mountain and
plain,
Many, alas never to reach home again.
Come and see them, and some fyour time with them
spend,
And tell them about the sinners friend,
If they Sinners show them the way they should 60
Tell them there's nothing but sorrow below
Tell them from faith in God ne 'er to depart.
For it is by afliction that God tries the hear,
To trust to their heavenly Fathers pure love,
And prepare themselves here for a mansion above.
Try to enlist them in the army of religion and right
Try to give them courage to slight the good fight"
Tell them 10 take the Bible for their coiors to the
cross make it fast,
And with Christ, their battle cry, fight to the last
Ii soldier is dying. oh watch his last breath,
As, perchance, you may learn a lesson from death,
For if he has fought the good fight as the noble and
brave,
His soul goes to heaven; his clay to the grave
WILERED.

Though Bragg has certainly won a

if he be granted sufficient time to forti-
