OOpperhead Abolitionists.

Senator John Conness, Of California, whose
election has been claimed rs democratic
victory, recently made war speech defining
his views, which is instructive to those dem
ocrats who would rather abolish the Govern
ment of their fathers, than tho Government
should be preserved by the abolishment Of
slavery. The newly elected Senator said:
1--WE have n noble President. There is q
President at the head of the Government
[Applause.] Abraham Lincoln may not be
the greatest man in the United States. but l
tell you. fellow citizens, that our country is
blessed Of God in having so good and so great
man in the Presidency in this great crisis.
[Cheers.] The cunning villain who, pending
this great struggle, seeks the qualification OF
personal interest alone, may now and then
have imposed upon that great and good man.
but in tho main his measures have been wise,
atall times his conduct has been just. Through.
out this great trial and struggle his patriot
Ism has been Of the same character and stamp
rs that OF tho great immortal Washington.
[Cheers. But, say these ohjectors. the sup
porters Of the Administration are Abolition
lists. Beauregard advises his Southern friends
to denominate the soldiers of the Government
Abolitionists, and craven, dirt eating, false
sons of the North, echo and follow the ad.
vice. Why fellow citizens, If an Abolition
ist were the basest creature tha. ever hereto
fore disgraced the earth. he would yet be
perfection compared with tho miserable
wrctches who set up such pretenses whilo
their country's life is at stake. Applause.
What is it to be an Aboltionist? Is it that
the person. whoever he may bc, is in favor
of abolishing something? These men would
not abolish slavery; they woald not blot out
or abolish slavery, though it stood at the ma
tons life. But they would stand by while
their country was being abolished and being
stricken from the map Of the world. Shame
upon such Abolitionists. Cheers. Shame
upon the Abolitonists who are in favor OF, or
who stand quietly by while tho attempt is
being made to abolish country, to abolish
a Government so benifcent, so wise, so grand
in the scope of its great wsrk of giving civil
liberty to the EARTH" "

FAREWELL LIFE.

Farewell. Life ! my senses swim,
And the world is growing dim;
Thronging shadows cloud the light,
Like the advent Of the night
Colder. colder, colder still;
Upward steals vapor chill;
Strong the earthly odor grows
smell the mold above the rose |!
Welcome, Life ! the Spirit strives!
Dtrength returns ana hope revivesj
Cloudy fears and shapes forlorn
Fly like shadows at tho morn.
O'er tho earth there come q bloom,
Sunny light for sullcn gloom,
Warm perfume for vapor cold
smell the rose above tho mold!

OF THE
NATIONAL REPU BLICAN.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July !, 1861.
The undersigned commenced, in the month Of
December last the publication, in this city, of
weekly newspaper, called the National Republican.
It is printed on large sheet, twenty-seven by
forty-two inches and is furnished at the low prices
stated below.
It will contain all the original matter of the
daily National Republican, with the exception Of
local newa not intereting to country subscribers.
1t will give full reports .of the proceedings of
Congress-, and ofthe other departments Of the Ma
tional Government
1t will contain oil the news of the day, foreign
and domestic, markets, &C., &C., as well rs an
original correspondence from oil parts of the
country. The miscellaneous department will re-
ceive special attention, and in all respects, the
effort will be made to establish the character Of
the National Republican as Family Newspaper.
Washington being now the central point of the
current military operations great attention will be
paid to furnishing the readers of the National
Republican with full, and especially with accurate,
accounts of the progress ofthe war for the Union.
In politics, the paper will be Republican, sus-
tanning the Administration of Mr.. Lincoln, but dis
claiming, however, any pretension to be the orga
of the President
There is no other Republican paper in the Dis.
trict of Columbia, in the vicinity oft, and ii
believed that recent events have opened to such
paper an important sphere of useful effort. The
| time has come, when the actual administration of
| the Government upon Republican principles will
explode the misrepresentation which have mede
| those principles so distasteful to the South.
But it is not only here, and in this vicinity that
the projectors of the National Republican hope to
make it useful. To the whole country they offer
journal which will discuss national politics from
national standpoint, and which will never be
swerved from patriotic duty by any overpowering
pressure of local interest.
