A CompIlmsnt % President Lineoln.
The New York Commercial Advertiser
says It is fact well worth noting, that
for the first time in many years, the Con-
greBs coming into life at the middle Of q
Presidential term is, in its spOlitieal aspect,
friendly to the President For quarter
Of century, if we are not mistaken, On
opposition speaker has been elected in eV-
cry last Congress Of Presidential Term.
That the next Congress is not merely
Union, but Republiean, is q strong testi-
mony to the popular estimate Of the fdeli-
ty, honesty and patriotism Of Abraham
Lincoln and his advisers.
Every Iineament o. President LinoOlns
character wears the impress of honesty.
He is transparent in his integrity-inea-
pAble Of shufiing artifce or strategy. he
is not only honest as a man, bu able and
ssgacious as a statesman. No man living
enjoys to- day solargely the confidence and
respect Of the American people. He may
make mistakes, for he is but human, but
his unsullied patriotism, his entire devo-
tiOn and single eye 10 to the welfare Of
his country, no candid man can doubt.
4 is building up character for history
that will not pale beside that of the Father
OF his country. As We believe Washing
ton was, SO we now believe Abraham Lin
coin is, raised up of God to be minister
Of good to the American Nation.

English Blockade Runners

Every species Of ingenuity is resorted to
by the British to build as blockade run
ners for the rebels, the fastest kind Of steam
vessels, and so to build them that they
may endure the FIRE Of our bIookading fleets
without much injury. The latest novelty
of this kind is steamer originally de-
signed to run on the Mersey River, be-
tween Liverpool and Eastman, as pleas
ure boat. She has been so altered with 4
view 10 "resist the rough salutatiOns gen.
orally dealt out 10 blocksde-runners by
the Yankee squadrons," as a British jOurn-
alist phases it, "shs has been fitted with
an outer she'll or coat Of timber below the
water line. The spsoe between this and
the vessel herself can be filed with cotton,
which, ii is considered, viii efectually
resist the Yankee missiles. To Obviate the
danger of ignition, this space can be filled
with water Immediately without in the
least disturbing the crew or injuring The
cargo" This cuuningly adapted vessel is
called the Allisnce, and has 3 speed, they
say, Of twenty miles an hour.

Thc Proof PilInE Up.

few days since correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette stated that he had been
assured, BY leading citizens of Georgia
and Alabama that Vallandigham, during
his stay among them, had urged them to
hold vlcksburg as long as possible "6s-
cause his election depended on the success Of
the Confederales there Tie cOpperhead
press denied it, though their motive to lie
was 50 strong that nobody doubted they
aid lie, and the denial was therefore
mere waste Of mendseity. But : week
contradiction has been promptly met BY
crushing refntaion. The Chicago Tri-
bune has, Hready for the inspection Of any
Copperhead who dares TO deny its au-
thentioity, letter written by rebel Pro-
vost Marshal attached to Bragg's army,
and a man evidently Of unusual intelli-
gence, in which the same fact is clearly
and unmistakably stated. The letter was
written 70 friends in Western Tennessee
and captured in the possession Of a mail
carrier, who is now or was recently in Gus
tody ct Columbus, Ky. The writer heard
Vsllandigham make the statement in his
presence, that his election depended upon
rebel success at Vicksburg.

s5 BANK sTREEr, CLEvELAED, September Il, 1868.
No shipments have been made from our
rooms since the last report; but homo
charities have again been brought forward
in the feeding of nearly FIVE hundred dis
sbled soldiers, that passed through this
city last Tuesday evening. These men
were, in great part, recruits for the Inva-
lid Corps, en- route for Elmira, New York,
TO report for what slight duty they were
able TO do. Few looked hardy enough to
endure much service, and many were
bringing with them the honorable scars Of
many hard fought battle.
Besides these there we're nearly two.
hundred belonging to the different regi-
ments that have been through here lately,
having been left behind in hospital; they
are now fastening forward to join their
companions.
Though the notice of their coming was
very short we were able to furnish them
az abundant supper, which was a great
comfort to these weary travellers.
1t is evident that we must expect re-
peated calls Of this kind, and must be pre-
pard to meet them. Our rcitizens, we trust,
will ever respond pro nptly to any demand
for provisions for the passing regiments.
We are continually receiving most graf
flying letters from the East, in token Of
appreciation of the care given to the sol
diers that have passed here lately. Sever
al of the sick who have reached home,
have sent us their personal thanks, and
remembrance. We take the liberty to pub
lish part Of letter just received from an
Albany gentleman, late Lieutenant Col.
onel of the 177th New York volunteers
It will be pleasant to see that our efFortl
to make the sick soldiers comfortable, arr
appreciated BY their friends at home Tht
remembrance of the little we were able tt
do, is heightened by these kind and friendly
words:
