Mr.. ED1ToR:-Permit me, through the
medium of your paper, to address few
words to the Friends Commonly called
Quakers) in Ohio.
Your Society has always bore its test
mony against war. Then if you are true to
your principles you must vote for the peace
candidate at the coming election. MIR
Vallandigbam is willing for Peace on homo
rable terms. Mr.. Brough is for war to the
bitter end. But, say you, our Society has
also borne its testimony against slavery
True, but you will admit that it has never
been enioined on you to liberate the slave
with the sword. You believe that no slave
holder can be Christian. Then your duty
is by moral suasion, to christianize them;
not with fire and the sword, as the Span
ards christionised the poorlIndians. When
the doctrine of Peace and that of anti
slavery come in conflict, as in the present
instance, surely that of Peace mus be para
mount. I therefore, implore you, as you
must answer to your country and your God
to cast your votes for the Peace candidate
AN OLD MAN.

The New York Post exultingly boasts
that doctrines ofpeace, not of hishonorable,
or impolitic peace alone, but absolutely all
doctrines of peace, are utterly unpopular.
We believe the assertion to be false. If it
be true, after two years of such war as we
have s., n, then there is something worse in
the American heart than in that of any
other people on the face of the earth. But
the radicals falsely judge the hearts of all
men by their own. i

DesertiOn of Mobile by the
Citizens.

The Boston Traveller has letter from an
officer of the blockading feet in the Gulf,
which says:
"The people are leaving Mobile in droves:
not by one and twos, but by the dozen. A
few days ago thirteen seamen deserted
from the Selma rebel steamer. From
Mobile Bay thirty-fve women and children
came over and about one hundred men; all
within one week, and all agree that Mo
bile can be easily taken. We shall soon
be about that. There is famine in Mobile,
and the women have rebeled against the
authorities They were starving, and
wanted bread, and they took it where they
could find it,"

AFFAIRS IN MIssIssIpI-Tj

AFFAIRS IN MIssIssIPI.-The Memphis
Journal, Of the 25th ut., says:
The reliable gentleman, an intimate and
personal friend of Eye local." was in town
yesterday and brought considerable VERT
able intelligence that will astonish the ma
tives. He has just arrived from Holly
Springs and reports that usual quiet city
considerably riled, at the rebel authorities
for creating an immense row among the non
combatants of that vicinity. He states
that the CONSUMPTION officers were busy in
conscripting every man that was capable Of
bearing arms-taking discharged soldiers
as well as "any other man." or the crest Of
mankind generally. Also that the Con-
federates were repairing the bridge over the
Tallahatchie river.

THE venerable General Cass has 20 fear
of calling things by their right names. In

We would like to ask those Republicans
who call themselves conservative, how long
they mean to go on yielding to the radicals,
who, so far, have substantially shaped the
whole policy Of their party? 1t is not time
for them either to make it stand for what
they call their distinctive principles, or else
give up effecting indignation, when we call
them abolitionists?

TnE avowed programme of the radicals
now is, in addition to emancipation and
confscation for the South, negro suffrage
and the destruction of State rights for the
whole country. They are verifying the
old proverb Of "plenty of rope" &c. We
bid them good speed.

The modern Improvements introduced
into our country by the radicals, are Eman
cipation, Confscation, Consolidation, Ha-
beas Corpus Abrogation, Universal Taxation
and Abolition Despotism. Such are the
elo ious fruits of radical "reform"

TIE Southern leaders can successfully
resist the abolition doctrines, now upheld
by the President and his party, and keep
their entire people united in resistance to
them But they could never resist the
principles of Union as maintained by the
Democracy.

If, AS the radicals and their secesh allies
affirm, rebel success is alone necessary for

TIE WICKED WRErcHEs.-Away down
East lived a couple of maiden spinsters of
most industrious habits and devoted uiety.
They devoted thmselves unremittinglv to
toll six days in the week, and religiously
consecrated the seventh to rest and the
office of religion. One Saturday evening
Nancy and Polly were plying their knit
ting needles with more than usual speed, in
order to finish an allotted stent before the
clock should mark the commencement of
holy time Absorbed in their labor, the
minutes passed swiftly BY, when Aunt Polly
having completed her stocking, raised her
eyes to the clock and perceived that She had
been working ON tde Sabbath. Lifting her
eyes heavenward, she exclaimed: "Lord de-
liver, US, sister Nancy-I decre we have
committed 'dultery."

IT HAS been well said that the emancipa-
tion proclamation recruited more men for
the rebel army than it freed negroes. And,
worse than this, it lost us the affections OF
that very class of persons in the South, the
Union men, upon whom we had to rely for
reaction in our favor, so soon as the mill
tary power of the REBELLION was crippled.
1t is no exaggeration to say, that every SOL
der, killed or wounded on our side, dies for
that proclamation. 4,

The determination Of the

A. We have exterminated the Indians, so

correspondent of the New York Herald
writes, Sept II:
THE NEGRO REGIMENTS.
"Tbe negro regiments here are beipg de-
cimated fearfully. As high as twenty four
per day have died in Colonel Gilctrists re-
giment alone, and still the carnival of death
goes on. Less than three hundred are a,o,c

That tells the tale of the race, now the

" TIE POLISH REVOLUTION. The Fed.
erals are now comforting themselves
with the idea that the Polish revolu.
ton brings to an end all chance of
intervention by France in American
affairs. While this is the opinion in
Yankee land, the opposite theory has
been started on our side, that French
diplomacy had, in fact prepared the
Polish and Hungarian mind for this
revolution, at this particular time, in
order that Russia and Austria might
have work nearer home at the moment
when the Emperor might provoke
hostile relations with the Yankee Gov.
ernncnt, in the prosecution Of his
American commercial policy, and his
political views in Mexico. Who knowsS
European politics is all strategy, and
