proceeded to address the Senate at length. He
declared that partisan revenge had governed
the actions OF this Administration, and the in
fancy OF its acts would drag IL with disgrace
down to future generations. The cause of
this war was the assertio of the right to abol.
ish slavery, and the evidence of such
q purpose. The President had treated
the subject with jocular and criminal
indifference, and when he came disguis.
ed to the Capital he whispered no word
of hope to the men struggling to make some
peaceable arrangement, and after he was inau-
gursted he proceeded to place his friends in
Office, and manifested no further care about the
country, except TO endeavor TO force the rebels
to strike the first blow. War exists not by
act of Congress, but by the acts of Beaurepard

PANORAMA OF THE WAR.--ws invite atten-
ton to the advertisement elsewhere of Lewis
& Co,'s Panorama of the Great American War,
which is to be exhibited at Naughton Hall to-
morrow Saturday evening. From what we
have heard of this Panorama, it must be an In
teresting and splendid presentation of scenes
in which all, old and young alike, feel the deep
est concern. These scenes belong to the most
eyentful period in our national existence =
Nothing will impress them SO thoroughly on the
mind as their presentation to the sight, in well
executed paintings and drawings. Exhibitions
Of this sort are, therefore, not only attractive
but profitable, especially, to children and young
persons.
