II. WINTER DAVIS,
Chairman Committee House Of Representatives the
Mr.. Lincoln has been frequently represented
as entertaining and expressing an ardent wish
that he could slip or his shoulders the ANKLE
ties and labers belonging to his present po-
siton, and place upon them the musket and
knapsack of Union volunteer. The oppor-
tuuity Of realizing that wish now presents
ITSELF The country would be overjoyed to sec
it realized, and all the people would say
join the quota which his town Of Springfield,
H., will next be called on 70 furnish. He is
said to have done we'll as railsplitter, and we
have no doubt that he will do equally well as
soldier. As President Of the United States,
he must have sense enough to see and acknow-
ledge he has been an egregious failure. The
best thing he can now do for himself his party
and his country is to retire from the high po-
sition to which, in an evil hour, he was exalted,
and, if any military ardor possesses him, join
the ranks of the army. One thing must be self
evident to him, and that is that under no cir
cumstsnces can he hope to be the next Presi
dent of the United States. The dissatisfaction
with his administration, which has long been
felt by the great body Of American citizens, has
spread even to his own supporters, and now, if
he will not make virtue OF necessity, and
withdraw from tho Presidential contest, "the
supporters Of the government" will be very
apt to act upon the advice given them by
Messrs. Wade and Davis-to "consider the
remedy for these usurpations, and, having
found it, fearlessly execute it." That remedy,
need we say what it is, Mr.. Lincoln cannot
need to be told that it is the same of which the
winds have been whispering for some weeks
past-tAe assembling Of ne,c national conven-
ton at Buffalo, to put in nomination for the
Presidency man in whom all the people Of
the United States will repose trust and conf.
dence-sone such man as Grant, Mcclellan,
Hancock, Sherman or Hooker.
The Rebels Again In Marylsnd-Anosher

ington.
The rebels are again in Maryland, and
another panic prevails in the southern border
counties of Pennsylvania. Gov. Curtin has
accordingly issued call for thirty thousand
men "for the exigency''-waitin9, as usual, for
the near approach Of the enemy before making
preparations to receive him. We apprehend
that il the defence Of Pennsylvania shall be
left to these thirty thousand men. still to be
raised, there will be nothing to check the enc
my in . Northern movement, whether thirty
thousand, twenty thousand, ten thousand or
less than five thousand strong, short OF that
difficult natural obstruction known a. the Sus-
quehanna river. The Inhabitants Of the
country below, meantime, seem to be actuated
by but one idea-that supreme idea Of running
off their horses, cattle, live stock and other
movables, beyond the reach Of those terrible
Southern barbarians the smallest OF whom, no
doubt, to the Pennsylvania farmer, stands,
barefooted, at least forty feet high.
In view, however, of what we consider the
main design of the enemy in all these desul-
tory and perplexing operations along the Upper
Potomac we think the panc-stricken yeomanry
of the Pennsylvania border have some reason
for their alarm. The rebellion now is in
serious danger Of . violent death from strangu-
lation. Grant has 1t by the throat at Rich
mond, and cannot be made to relax his hold,
except by some desperate and formidable
diversion that will compel him, as Mcclellan
was compelled. and as Hooker was compelled,
to turn his back upon Richmond in order to
save Washington. That this great design
underlies all these guerilla movements along
the Maryland border we do most seriously
believe.
We dare say that Early, Breskinridge, Mos
by, lmms.oaen and Company are for the present
engaged in the important work Of providing, at
convenient stations, all the way up the Shsnan-
doah valley, the depots Of supplies necessary
to enable an army of sixty or eighty thousand
men to move down in light marching order, so
rapidly as to be in Maryland again in advance
of any reliable warning OF their numbers or
their near approach. In this view Of the sub
ject, we care less to know what Hunter, Crook
aud Averill are doing than what the adminis-
trstlon is about at Washington.

Johnston had been removed from the command
