REBEL ApvIcE.-The rebels fully I'M
= derstand what Is for the interest OF their
friends at the north, and are prompt 10
give them the benefit OF their advice.
o Their motive is to help themselves, Tor
they have not been slow to appreciate
the fact that their interests ana those OF
the copperheads are to great extent
common. As 1t is for the interest OF
the copperheads to encourage and help
the Fremont movement, 80 1t Is for the
interest of the rebels to encourage and
! aid the copperhead movement. The Free
mont movement is diversion in favor
of the copperheads, and the copperhead
movement is a diversion In favor OF the
rebels. Now the rebels have the merit
of greater frankness than their northern
co-workers, and tell us exactly what are
d the two prime requisites to the success
of the latter in the coming presidential
election. We ask Union men, OF what
ever name, to consider what these re-
quisites are, as stated by the Richmond
press The first is duty devolving upon
the rebels themselves,-to defeat Grant
and his brave army fighting to crush
treason, to maintain the Union and save
free government to the world; the sec
ond is duty of the democrats" north,
to do whatever they can to weaken the
federal army, discredit federal finance"
&c. The democrats will certainly be
credited with having endeavored to do
their part for some time, as faithfully as
the rebels theirs.
In short, the ruin OF all hopes for the
prerequisite to democratic" success at
the north in the coming election. If
there are any democrats" still hating
in the premises, the rebels wish them to
fully understand what they must do to
be saved and advise them as in the fol-
lowing extract from the Richmond Ex-
aminer s
"In that case who will be the
next President in the enemy's country
Not Fremont withhis radical abolition.
The era for that school of politics will
be past. But there remains another par
ty-the Democrats; they being also di-
yided at present into War Democrats
and Peace Democrats, but who would all
. be Peace Democrats in the event sup.
posed-that is, in the event of a total
failure of the Federal campaign Of 1864
Now the very latest intelligence brought
us from that country by special chan
mel informs US of these two further facts
that the popular mind became at once
violently agitated on the announcement
of this Baltimore nomination; and that
In Maryland, especially, disturbance was
apprehended In fact, the Democrats o
the North who have waited four years
not too patiently, trusting 10 regain thu
power and profit which they but latel,
held to be a Democratic Inheritance
must naturally be provoked beyond en-
durance at this audacious attempt o
Lincoln and Seward to ride roughshot
over them four years more. We learl
that the democrats are now UNIVERSAL,
turning their thoughts to Franklii
Pierce and the Connecticut Seymour a
their nominees for Preside mt and Vic
President. To give them the least chanc
A of electing those two advocates of peace
Grant must be defeated, the invasion
must collapse and die out, and the yer
q name of war must become a word c
horror, uttered with loathing and exc
cration Therefore IL is the interest of n
Democrats to do their rery nttnpaost to sceak
en- tie Federal army, discreda Federal fnano
