The Ccpperhead ImbroeIio.

Gen. Mcclellan delivered an address
at the dedication of the Battle Monument
at West Point on the 18th inst. in which
ne thus overturps the copperhead theory Of
the war:
ITO efface the insult offered to our flag, to
secure ourselves from the fate of the divi.
ded Republics Of Italy and South America,
to preserve our Government from destruc-
ton, to enforce its just power and laws, to
maintain our very existence as a nation,
these were the causes which impellcd us to
draw the sword. Rebellion against a Gov
eminent like ours, with the means OF self
adjustment and pacific remedy for evils,
should never be confouuded with reyolu'
tion against despotic power which refuses
redress Of wrongs. Such a rebellion can
not be justified upon ethical grounds, and
the only alternatives for our choice are its
suppression or the destruction OF our ma
tiopality. At such time as this, and in
such struggle, political partizanship should
be n erged in trre and brave patriotism
which thinks only of the good of the whole
country. 1t was in this cause and with
these motives, that, so many of our com
rades have given their lives, and to this We
are all personally pledged in all honor anC

it be said, in after ages, that we lacked tn,
vigor to complete the work thus begun?-
That after all these noble lives freely given
wo hesitated and failed to keep straight OIL
until our land was saved? Forbid it
Heaven, and give US frmer, truer heart
than that"
This is as radically hostile to the prin
cples of the copperhead democracy as any
thing that ever fell from the lips Of Chase
Tod, or Andy johnson. If what McClel
Ian says is true, that party have been guilt.

Y God ON the side Of Liberty.

There are those who occupy high places
in the Church, that endeavor to prove sav-

it is ordained and fostefed of God. This
monstrous subversion Of the truth is receiv.

bloodshed and War:
Nearly three hundred years ago cause

not essentially unlike that which is now at
issue in this country. 1t was the cause OF

and bloody tyranny of Philip III, King of

MOurnfui COinCidence--A Sol.
dier writing his own Obituary.

A correspondent of the New York
Herald with tho Army of the Potomac
writes, under date OF June 2lst:
A very singular occurrence was noted in
the 10th Massachusetts yesterday. A SER
geant had been engaged in the I'd division
hospital the day previous in placing upon
number of headboards the names Of mem
bers of his regiment who had been killed
in the late fight or had died in battle, which
were to mark their last resting place. There
wasSne board in excess, and, in sportive
vein, he placed with lead pencil his own
name upon it, and the date of his demise,
Goth Of June, as his term of service had
then expired and he was about to leave for
home. Yesterday morning, while near the
front bidding bis companions in other regi-
ments farewell he was struck in the breast
by a20-pounder Parrott and instantly killed.
His remains were inferred to-day, and the
very headboard he had unthinkingly in
scribed with his own name was placed over
his grave, and, with date, correctly marks
for time his resting place.

waiting for Disasters.


Mr. August Belmont has announced
that in Difference to.the desire ofa very large
number Of leading members Of the Conser
vative Union Democratic party, the meeting
Of the Democratic National Convention,
which was to be held on the 4ih of July, is
postponed to the Goth OF August, and he
is particular to say, OF the year 1864. Any
othor year woHld become it as well.
Why this change of front in the face Of
the enemy? Why does tho Democratic
trumpet give forth an uncertain sound? II
the Democratic Conservative Union party
| too early to advocate peace2 What is that
preaching and practice for the battle TO go
on? If the Democratic Conservative Union
party is for war, should it wait to see how
the battle is going before it throws itself inf
This certainly is a queer position for the
great Democratic party. The Republic is
struggling for existence against mighty re-.
bellion. The Democratic party stands aloof
and waits the issue, before it can decide
which side il will take. If the nation is
successful, the party will declare itself for the
nation, and the war to maintain it. 1.-THE
nation is defeated in the present campaign,
the Democratic party will declare itself for
the enemy, and for peace on their terms -
We're the Convention held now, the high
hopes Of the people, and the power we are
exhibiting in the field, might compel it to
declare for supporting the Government in
the war But if postponed, possible mill
itary disaster or failure may enable the
Convention to declare for the enemy and
for peace. The managers have postponed
hoping for military disaster to help the
chances of the party.
This postpenement, and the reasons on
which it has been urged, are a confession
that the Democratic party hopes to thrive
upon disaster to the country, and that its
chances will increase in proportion as our
armies are defeated, our soldiers slaughter.
ed without effect on the rebellion, aud the
war orotracted For this delay is admitted
by tho I>aity organs toJbe from no difference
about men. Delay would not settle that in
the case OF any OF its candidates But it is
a question wheih her the party shall 60 foi
peace or war; that Is, whether 1t shall &C
for the Government or the enemy in this
war; and before it decides this question, II
desires to wait and see ii military disaster
will not weaken the supporters OF the Gov
ernment so that the party can safely turn
against it.
1t is plain confession that the Demo
critic party is !speculaiing upon the defeat Of
our armies, the slaughter Of our soldiers,
the protraction of the war. the prostration
OF the powers Of the country, and that its
only hope for success is in the destruction Of
the nation.

The "Martyr'' On his Travels

the readers OF the Advertiser and Tribune
of the fact that Vallandigham, who has
