LincOlll's kullOcks.

The victims of the Conscription bill
are now called "Lincoln's bullock's. -
In his letter to Governor Seymour, Lin
coln justifes his own unjust and inexor-
able enforcement of the Conscription by
declaring that jeff. Davis forces the men
of the South into his army, las butchers
10 bullocks into slaughter pens" There
fore, he, Abraham Lincoln, has made up
his mind to do the same thing. The fig
ure is intirely worthy of Lncoln's cause.
lie is forcing men, who were once free,
into his negro liberating army as butch
ers force bullocks into the slaughter pen.
1t is slaughter pen, and the wretches
who force men into it are butchers. How
longl o, how long shall the people be
butchered to glut the hellish rage OF the
abolitionists How long will the peo'
pie allow themselves to be SO inglorious'
/ ly butchered? How long will they al
low themselves to be slaughtered like
bullocks.-- Old Guard.

said:

OF the war are the restoration OF tho Uhlon'

For thus writing, lac is denounced as "d's'

strong probability Of Gen. MCCLELLAN being
the Democratic candidate for the Presidency

War Times.

A speaker at a recent meeting in Penn
sylvania. presented to his audience the
following picture of the society produced
by the war:
"Grief may shed lis bitter tear in the
silent chamber, poverty may starve in its
hiding place, the patriot may mourn, but
no grief, nor fear nor feeling seems to
dwell in the public mind or touch the
public heart. This year has been wild
with fashion, hilarity and show. Our
Northern cities eclipse the past in gor'
geous dissipation; more diamonds flash in
the glare Of the gay saloon; dinners, balls
and masquerades in ostentation and lux
uriance, turn midnight Into day; pran-
cling stceds and gaudy equippages carry
light t-headed loveliness through all the
drives of fashion--stores where Jewels.
pearls and precious stones, and the rich
goods of Europe and Asia are exposed,
are crowded with purchasers, and have
double sales, though gold touches pre-
MUM Of seventy per cent. spectators in
stocks make fortunes in day, palatial
stores and marble dwellings are spring
ing from the earth on every side; resorts
OF amusement were never SO numerous
and never so crowded; prize fights excite
for time more interest than the battles
of the Republic; thousands of dollars are
staked on the iavorite of the race; gam
bling bells are wide open to entice to in
fanny the young; crime is iearfully on thu
increase; the law grows impotent, anC
men who have by the basest means de
frauded the laborer, tho widow and or
phans hold high their heads, and go un

what They gsejolce Over.

The abolitionists are rejoicing over their
success In the recent elections They ro-
of office, prolongation OF public plunder ;
they rejoice over a ruined country, avolatod

liberty, tho Gnsavement Of the descendants
Of tho fathers of tho Republic, over blood
and carnage, destruction Ind death; oven
more taxation, more drafts, moro ruin, more
war. Devils also rejoice over tho anlictions

DEMOCRATS OF ONO You have been

thousands OF soldiers were sent or kept
within your State, or held inactive in

Confederate enemy were marching upon
the Capital of your country.
You were beaten: but q nobler battle
for constitutional liberty and free popular
government never was fought by any peo.
pie. And your unconquerable firmness
and courage, even in the midst of armed
military force, secured you those first of
freemen's rights-free speech and free

the hour of your defeat. No mellowing
of your opinions upon any question,
even of policy, will avail anything to

scarcely have questioned the truthfulness of
the character. Topsies might be found here
by the hundred. ns1v

creature, with tiny round face as black IS
the ace of spades. l dressed her up and kept
her about to do little errands Tor me, while
the chambermaid in the house found her as
much source of amusement as usefulness.
She would dance aud sing and act quite az
comically as Topsy ever did.
had to laugh heartily one day at the dole
full face of one of the clerks, as he came into
my room, his hand covered with blood.
''Plcase give me bandage for this, Mrs

same time full of vcxation. "That Nell is
perfect little imp! See what she has done to

"How? Why your hand looks full of little
pricks as If from teeth"

She's smart one, you may rest assured. 1t
happened this way: We boys love to teaze
her, and often get her into the store room and
hear her make drol remarks. l got into
the habit Of tapping her upon the head pre-
tending to be yexed, just to see her roll up
her eyes at me in her mcal-dcprccating
way. Her wool is thick aud guess tapped
her pretty hard sometimes, relying upon its
softness to protect her. Well the little imp.
what does she. do but stick forty pins along
under the wool through the edge OF the tur-
ban, the points out. They formed circle
round her droll head, and just now l tapped
her so hard on the side of the head as TO get
dozen right through the hand. The smart
vexed me, aud tapped the other side, then
the top--you see the result"
By this time / had finished binding up the
lacerated hand. and INDUCED In a convulsiye
burst of merriment at his expense. He went
away laughing, and few moments later, when
Nell came in, | examined her head, finding at
least half an ounce of pins deposited in the
curly locks crimped up tightly over her head.
She stood demurely with her hands folded.
