UAtL.t Who is HAscALL and whence he

prepared 70 snsweE .Tbs first sppearance
upon the stage Of this new military star, is
heralded by General Order No. 81 in,
which he declares that call newspapers
and public speakers that atendeavor TO bring
the war policy Of the Government (heI
means Administrator into disrepute
will be considered as having violated Gen
eral BURSsIDE's Order No, 3S; and treat
ed accordingly" After disposing Of that
point to his entire satisfaction, doubtless,
he proceeds to tell u.s., what we never
would have known had he not mentioned
it that "the country viii have to bepayed
or lost during the time that this Admins
tration remains in power, and therefore he
who is factiously and actively opposed to
the war policy Of the Naturalization is as
much opposed to this Government That
is drawing il mild. to besure. Opposition
to the Administration is opposition to the
Government. Since when did ABRAHAM
LINCOLN become the Government ? If he
is the Government, was not BUCHANAN,
during his Administration, also the Gov
eminent. and was not all opposition to his
policy opposing the lGovenment, and, in
the Abolition acceptation of the term,
treason ? The right to criticise and op-
pose, by facts and argument, the acts and
policy Of the Administration belongs to
the people. All Administrations, since
the formation of the Government have
had to submit to it. During the Admin
istration of JOHN ADAMS, the sedition laws
were passed; but, infamous as they were,
they failed of their object. The people
demand and will exercise their rightto ap-
prove or condemn the official action OF
II their public servants. Does Mr.. LINCOLN
or his satraps and minions suppose fol
moment that they can by any power al
their command wrest from the freemen OF
this country thatmost sacred inheritance
