Generous Under Trights.

We can conceive something OF the fright Of
the administration at Washington during the
last great raid OF Lee into Maryland and
Pennsylvania, since we have learned that the
War Office, so soon as the danger was over
sent letters to Governor Seymour, OF New
York, specially thanking him for his inter
position against the advance Of the rebels
These letters were sent before the fright had
passed off As soon as it had passed Off thu
administration hastened to undo their thanks
by sending forty thousand troops into New
York to menace and insult Governor Soy
mour and influence the election, on the false
prctenco OF enforcing the draft.
The administration have never done gen.
trous thing, where political opponent was
involved, except under the pressure of fear,
and they have never failed to take revenge OF
tina opponent so soon as they felt secure In
doing SO.

Beating tho Rebels,

An abolition contemporary in Penusylv vania
gives the rebels this fearful warning:

the rebels at the ballot box; now let us beat
the rebels in the field" On the part of the
"allies OF the rebels" VIC have only to say to
this proposition that " Barkis is wiling"
But if the rebels are not beaten until the men
who voted for Curtin in Pennsy lvania, fol-
Brough in Ohio, and for Stone in Iowa, vol.
UNFAIRLY take up arms to fight them, thciI
lease of victory is a long one. Eternal shame

pondent of the Journal is of the same
opinion. lie says-"Gen. Halleck is

But as Rosccrans was not removed

ty of President Lincoln, these gentlemen
impeach his sagacity. They consure, to
use their usual style Of reasoning, the ac-
ton of "the Government" aud degrade

legation we do not pretend to decide
We know that Administration partisans
differ widely as to the cause Of Rosecrans'
removal and the mode in which it was
brought about. 1t is their own quarrel,
and we leave them to settle it among
themselves.
But the country is pretty well satisfied
we think-by this time that here is
a power behind the throne at Washing
ton stronger than that of Gen. Hallcck,
power that puts down end uts up Ger
erals at its will and controls the policy
of "the Government in the conduct of
the war to suit its own partisan ends and
purposes. That power is the Jacobin

mined "to rule or ruin" From what

Emc Pennsylvania Legislature

The majority for Curtin for Governor
in Pennsylvania is now officially asccr-
;ained to be about fifteen thousand--four
or five thousand ahead of the rest of the
abolition State ticket But the State
Legislature is, it seems in a curious fix.
In the house Of Representatives there is
tie. In the Senate the Abolitionists have
one majority. But this is coun.erbal-
anced 10y the fact that one of their Sena-
tors, Major White. from the Western por-
ton of the State, is prisoner at Rich
mond, and likely to remain there, owing
to the dead.lock in the matter of exchon
ges. Without him, the Senate like the
House will be tied. This vexes the Alb
o.itionists exceedingly, and Gov. Curtin
is reported to have said that Major White
must be exchanged if it cost a dozen reb-
cl Generals to effect it, Statesman.
