If man wsntonly destroys his
neighbours property, who pays the
damages?
And if men stir up rebellion, and cause
the country 70 lose hundreds of millions
of dollars, who ought to pay the
damages
The laws of all civilized countries,
from time immemorial, have settled the
first question-those laws which are the
conservators of society. They declare
that the tresspasser shall make restitu-
ton with his goods that he who de-
stroys his neighbours property, or Injuries
his person, shall compensate him for the
injury. Suppose we carry out this prin-
ciple, this well settled custom and law,
and apply il TO the case of men who
have stirred up rebellion and destroyed
not the goods of one man only, but of
thousands. The precedents Of all ma
tons, as well As the dictates of Justice,
declare that the cases are analogous, only
that the crime ia more fragrant and The
injury greater in rebellion. Hence in
all governments the goods of arch trail
tors are oonhscated, II the goods of
the yiolators Of one law are answerable
for the injury done, much more are the
goods OF the violstors of all law an
swersble. There is no principle more
just than that Of the conGseation Of the
goods Of traitors. If the country be
burdoned with war debt in
cured in putting down the re-
bellion, there is certainly more JUS
tee in paying that debt by selling the
property of the meters of the rebellion,
than by laying heavy taxes upon the
loyal and laW-abiding. To object 10
conilscation on the ground that il is
radical is downright nonsense; it is in
the best sense Of che word conservative
and loyal To exempt traitors from
such penalty is TO offer a premium for
the commission Of treason. When des-
perate men find out that it will cost
them no more personally, TO stir up re-
bellion than 10 conduct an ordinary po-
h'loal canvass we may look for FREE
quent harvest Of treason.

Anu-sIavery organ In Vick.burI

AntI-siSvery organ In VicksbuFE,
Mr.. f. Montgomery, formerly editor
Of the VicksbuTg Whig, but for q year
past an exile from his home, has issued
prospectus for a weekly paper 10 be
published in that place under The name
Of the Vicksburg Union, and having the
following objects
To show the South the wonderful and
miraculous effects produced throughout
the North by the great moving cause of
all their material grandeur and great
ness-iree labor. While the South has
remained almost stationary, and her in
exhsustible resources are comparatively
untouched, the North, with a sterile soil
and rigorous climate, has by means of
free labor, come to blossom like the
rose" The difference between the
wealth, power and resources Of the two
sections is perfectly amazing, and never
was shown more clearly than in the
present unfortunate war,
While the Union will scrupulously
avoid all counsels OF fanAticism, il will,
nevertheless, advocate In the most sol
emn aud earnest manner DE entire and
immediate ertiiloti0n Of he cause Of all ths
present troubles, and he curse Of he S0laA-

We would sVpectfully inform our
neighbor Of the Press, that the reason
why we did not acquit him Of all con-
nectiOn with the fraud" referred 20
recently in our columns, was, that it
never enteredinto our head for a moment
that he had anything 70 do with il. We
did not dream that he needed any dis
claimer from us, Of desire to implicate
him in the disreputAble trick. We sup
pose that the hero of the work house
credited our articles 10 the Press, qnitS
as much, if not more, from spite at the
Union, as from Partially to the Press.
Our design in noticing the matter at all,
was to expose abroad the character of
an unscruplOus impQster, who if I'M
noticed may do great injury to those
who are of much greater importance than
ourselves.

II Is easy TO see from the articles of the
rebel organs in Richmond, and other
Southern cities, that the rebel fuglsmen
are very DESTROYS Of the triumph Of the
Copperheads over the Union and Admin
istrAtion party. The rebel leaders know
that the oopperheads, in Congress and
out Of It, will violently assail the meas
ures of the Administration, and even,
though voting at times for Union meas
ures, will pursue = course well adapted
to stir up the ignorant and lawless in the
North TO bloodshed and mutiny. Djeo
any man suppose that If the Republican
candidates for Congress had been elect
ed in New York city at the last election,
or even if Governor Seymour had been
defeated that there would have been an
anti-draftriot? Certainly not. Then if
the success of the CopperheAd, or So
called conservative candidates, anywhere
has tendency TO encourage the rebels,
by disheartcning and dividing our
strength in the loyal States, il is surely
the duty Of patriots to yield something
of old partisan bias and prejudice, and
give the President hearty support. Let
US do nothing TO encourage the rebels.
When they begin TO applaud any party
in the loyal States, and TO chuckle over
their successes, it is time for true men to
forsake such party. Oh, says one, we
want to elect Vallandigham in Ohio, be-
cause he is the representative of free
speech. But do you not believe that JEFF.
Davis and his Cabinet would rejoice over
it as heartily as yourself, and look on il
as the sure precursor of dissension and
civil war In the North? DO you wan
free speech to drag you at the beela Of
the confederacy II would be even
better TO have silence for little viii. g.

Charleston is "only question oftime. !"
II is only a question Of time to US but a
is much more serious matter to The

would make il more like a question Of

LEES REPORT OF THE PENNsYLvA-

WASHINGTON, October 5.-The Richmond
Dispatch Of Saturday last contains General
Lees official report OF his Pennsylvania cam
paigu Il occupies nearly three colums OF
the Dispatch. The reasons for the campaign
are thus summed up: THE position occup
ed by the enemy opposite Fredericksburg
being one in which be could not be atlocked
TO advantage, il was determined todraw him
from it
The execution of this purpose embraced
the relief ithe Shenandoah Vally from the
troops that bad occupied the lower part of it,
during the winter and spring, and If practica-
bic, the transfer OF the scene of hostilites
north of the Potomac 1t was thought that the
corresponding movements on the part of the
enemy, to which those contemplated by us
would probably give rise, might offer fair
opportunity to strike blow at the army then
commanded by Hooker, and that, in any
event, the army would be compelled to leave
Virginia, and possibly TO draw to its support
troops designed to operate against other
parts of the country. In this way it was sup
posed that the enemy's plan of campvign for
the summer would be broken up, and part of
the season of active operations he consumed
in the formation of new combinations, and
the preparations that they would require. In
addition to these advantages. it was hoped
that other valuable results might be attained
