Coppsrbeads Of Ohio recently came to the
President to beg for the "releass" Of

decided to grant their request provided
they (ths Commi,,ee) would sign their
names, as honorable men, to the following
propositions, to be published:
81. That there is now q Rebellion in the
United States, the object and tendency OF
which is TO destroy the National Union; and
that, in your opinion, an Army and Navy are
constitutional means for suppressinS that
rebellion.

only asks few Of his friends, professedly

Bufalo, Jan.

Dohop1 cnHs -
Gov. Seymour's message is lengthy.
That part referring to the national affairs
occupy four ordinary newspaper columns.
He says New York has sent since the out
break of the war 290, 900 soldiers to the
field. Speaking of the causes Of the war
he says: Appalled, at the ruin they have
wrought the authors of our calamity North
and South insist it was caused by the
contest about slavery. This has been the
subject, not the cause of controversy.
We are to look for the causes of this
war in prevailing disregard Of the obi
cations Of laws and constitutional disre-
spect for constituted authorities, and above
all in the local prejudice which have
gained sway in all portions Of the Atlantic
States.
This spirit Of disloyaty must be put
down as soon as can be with safety of per-
sons and property. This war should have
been overruled, but when its flood-gates
were opened the Administration could
not crush its Dimensions nor control it's
sweep. Government was drawn along by
the current and struggling along as it best
could with the resistless tide, few seemed
to comprehend its military or financial
problems. Hence We are not to set up
any harsh judgment upon errors OF con-
duct or policy.
