F
TIE Richmond Whi9 Of the 21st says
"The loss of Vicksburg, and the failure at
Gettysburg, are the two events Of the year,
which seem to render highly probable q
long and almost indefinite continuance Of the
war. Apart from the victories we may
achieve on the field, there are but two means
Of counteracting the banefnl effects Of these
events and bringing hostilities to an early
close. These are either foreign intervention
or determined opposition By the conserva-
tive masses of tn. North to the Abolition fac
ton which has control of the Government at
Washington. A long and protracted war
will prove great evil, wholly unmixed with
good for the longer the war continues, the
more thoroughly exasperated the Southern
heart would become with the whole Yankee
race and Yankee institutions. We want the
aid Of France. We are able to pay for it,
let US do it. We shall then have peace or
the power to work sweet sevengs on our
foul foe. fa a2 e

Negro Equality.

The Copperheads have so often charged
the Union Republican party with intending to
bring all the slaves North and allow them to
vote, &c. that many honest foreigners believe
it. The Republican party has been in power
in many of the States for upwards Of seven
years and yet not a law has been passed by
any State giving the negro any more political
rights than he had before. On the contrary,
when the Democratic party was in power in
the State of New York, the Constitutional
Convention. over which Martin Van Buren
presided, extended to every negro the right
to vote, provided, he owned 5000 worth of
property. The Democratic party of Massa-
chusetts and of Ohio gave to negroes the right
to vote. Will you remember these things
In every State, where the negroes vote, that
privilege was granted by the Democratic
party. The history Of the country is our
proof The Democracy cannot blot it out.

At his Old Tricks.

By the following from Baltimore paper,
it will be seen that Maj r Constable, ex-lectur-
er on India, &C., is at his old tricks. If any
evidence of his rascality is needed, witnesses
can be had from this region:
TIE CASE OF MAJOR CoNsrABLE.-The ar.
rest of Major Constable, late Provost Marshal
of the Eighth Army Corps Department, was
noticed last week. He was subsequently in
dicted by the grand jury on the charge of OBJ
taining considerable amount of money, and
at the time the military declined to surrender
him to the civil authority. At Major Consta-
ble's request, he was yesterday admitted to
bail by Judge Bond to await trial on the in
dictment. Major Constable states that he
has an affidavit made by the prosecutor in
Washington that he had received the whole
Of his money and given receipt for it.-Bal-

Union.

Every movement made by the loyal people
to obliterate old party lines and names, and
unite the people Of the North, upon a COM
mon platform of devotion to the Union, the
copperheaded peace-sneaks among us, turn
up their noses and sneer Union. Just as
though there was no honesty, except in that
party, which, while in power was not content
with stealing all the MONEY from the Federal
Treasury, but took Indian bonds-certi6cates
- vouchers - custom receipts-robbed the
country Of its arms and munitions of war
stole ships, forts and arsenals and plunged
the nation into terrible, bloody civil war, by
firing upon its flag, resisting its authority and
trampling under foot its Constitution. The
hearts of their leaders black with treason,
they now sneer at Union of all loyal men.
