FifteeD hundred thousand men have been furn>
ished the government to carry out us poIlcy Tor
the suppression of the rebellion and the force has
been insu fficiont. The very last dollar OF proper
tv the nation possesses has been mortgaged tor
all time and for every cent of Its value that this
policy might prevail. The very negroes nave
beeu turned lonse, and the savage Indians sums
uonad IN the field of carnage to put down this
enernv All without avail. The enemy is COM
naratively as strong today as he was two years
| AFRO. and stands thrice fortified and defiant, virtu-
| ally recognized as independent by all Christendom
save ourselves.
We clip the above choice morsel of COM
fort for the rebels and traitors now in arms
for the destruction of this Government, from
the Milwaukee NeuS. We are not able to see
how it would be possible for any paid emissa-
nv of the enemies of the country, to give the
rebel cause more timely and efficient aid than
the editor of the Milwaukee Neos is doing dai-
ly. The above is but a sample of the editori-
al that daily fills that sheet. The fact that
there is no truth in the statement, does not
lessen the effect both upon rebels and Union
men. There are probably thousands of read
ers in this State who put implicit faith in the
NeuS, because they read no other paper. The
statement that all the efforts of the Govern
ment to put down the rebellion has entirely
failed, and that the rebels are 'Sas strong to-
day as they were two years ago." and ''recog-
nized as Independent, by all christendom save
ourselves, and that 'the very last dollar of
the nation has been mortgaged for all time to
come, and for every cent of its value" cannot
but nave a very depressing and discouraging
effect upon such men, and virtually urges
them to oppose every effort Of the Govern
mcnt to raise more men to put down the re-
bellion. Nor is the effect of such statements,
any less upon the rebels. They are assured
that the Government is worse than bankrupt
cit has nortgaged for all time to come, the
last dollar Of property the nation possesses
and has exhausted its men and means, with
out effect. All they have to do is to hold out
in their rebellion a little longer, when we shall
be forced to acknowledge their success in the
disruption of the Government, and the es-
/ tablishment of an empire founded upon slave
ry. Nor will such statements though known
to be false by the writer and publisher, have
any less effect upon foreign Governments
which must all be against us and in favor O
the rebels. Such a state of things as is thus
depicted by the Fers, is just what will induce
! foreign nations to recognize the independence
/ of the rebels, and then to interfere to aid then
a in becoming SO.
I The object of all this teaching is to induce
the Democrats, as a party to resist any drat
y that may be made under the conscriptiol
. act of the late Congress. If thepeople can b
h educated up Cor down, rather to the forcibl
: resistance Of the laws of Congress and tn
= Government, and riots and mobs thereby b
inaugurated, the editor of the Ners will hav
accomplished what he so ardently DESIRES
When the laws come to be administered il
spite of riots and mobs and the victims OF thi
false teaching, nave to suffer for their crimi
q nal lawlessness, he can set up his howln!
o over the cruelty and tyranny of the Admin
d istration, and shed crocodile tears over tn
d horrors of mobs and fanaticism.
