The War.

The war drags its slow length along.
There is yet abundant money, therefore
the army of contractors keeps the army Of
soldiers in the field. Meade has gone into
winter quarters; and Congress, in cush-
ioned seats, is devising ways and means to
continue and increase the taxation and
conscription of the people.
Blundering incompetency al Washington
directs military operations, and folly and
fanaticism control the civic polity while
the deluded people like the frogs who had
serpent for their king, hide in horror
from the servants who have become their
rulers. The future is dark with sorrow,
and red with continued blood. letting; and
no mortal ken can perceive happy issues
evolving themselves from our present COM
plcations.

The Springfield Republican is one OF
the few administration papers that is bless.
ed with few grains of common scnse, as
witness the following, which contains more
wisdom than will be found in the Tribune
and Bloomsbury Smn. Machine for q
whole year:
"Thcre is general jubilntion in the
Republican papers over the assumed death
OF the Democratic party. They had bet
ter not take that for granted. A party
that has just thrown more votes than ever
before in any State except Massachusetts,
y and has been beaten only by
the most extraordinary efforts, can hardly
be considered dead. The
moral OF the political situation of tho Re-
publican leaders is that they have no such
excess Of strength as to make it safe for
them to be reckless or defiant as to means
and measures; that they are still on trial
before the American people as to their
ability and integrity in the conduct Of the
government; and that they can ouly hope
to obtain renewed lease of power by
demonstrating that they can and will use
it for the general welfare, rather than for
private and partisan ends.
