"TAe People Have so Decided

The Chicago Post which warmly sup
ported Mcclellan says
The election is over. The rebellion
is still in existence. II must be put
down primarily by armed force He
who wants peace, should see that the
shortest way to peace is by the bayonet
The rebels viii not submit as long as
they can fight, and their military power
must be overcome Peace must be
conquered, and the only way TO con-
quer it now is to mike the armies large
enough to overcome all opposition.
Taxation is oppressive and viii be more
so; drafts are severe and distressing
and numerous, but they are inevitable.
War is a bloody and expensive luxu-
ry, and its consequences must be borne
There is no escape from the response
bility of meeting the rebellion and
fighting cut the battle The people
have so decided. rc
The Post does not misrepresent the
decision of the people. They haze de.
cided that the battle must be fought
out; and it viii be fought out to a con-
summation which viii make our coun-
try far greater, and more powerful
nation, commanding more than ever,
the respect Of the civilized world
Nor is the Post wrong when il owns
that the shortest way 10 peace is by
the bsyonet,' if we intend 10 suppress
the rebellion and perpetuate the Union
We have certainly reached that point
in this war when no one, not wilfIliy
blind, can fail to see this fset Armis-
tees, diplomacy, the I resources Of
craftsmanship" would but prolong the
struggle. Let us, therefore, WELD the
whole military power Of the nation, if
necessary, and bring the war to speedy
close If the armies already in the
field are not large enough, reinforce
them until they are sufficiently strong
70 crush the rebel armies 10y single
blow. This done, and We shall have
peace, and a Union, which shall not
again be jeoparded by conspirators and
traitors.

Two weeks from next Thursday is
the day appointed by the President as
Thanksgiving Day. Not until within
the psst few years has this appoint
ment, usually made by the Governors
Of the respective States, been generally
observed, except in the Northern States.
There, il is one Of the great events Of
the year, and is chosen as the time of
reunion of all the members Of the
family under the ancestral roof-tree.
Aside from the higher purposes and in
tenta Of the day, this Is q custom that
Is worthy of general imitation. And
nov that the appointment is made by
the President, and will be observed in
all the States, in the army and navy at
the same time, it will be- a touching
thought, that in thousands of homes
families will bs reunited, save those
members who sleep the quiet sleep that
knows no earthly waking on the banks
of the Potomac, in the desolated val
lies of Georgia, or the wide prairies OF
the Western States, wherever our army
has moved on its onward course, there
are some that will never again meet
around the family table on Thanks
giving day. Even the consciousness
that they are numbered with that band
of glorious heroes that our country vii
not forget, that around their pale brow,
the laurel wreath of the victor was en-
twined, win hardly atone for their loss
All, Heaven knows that Thanksgiving,
the oath of November, will be tearfu

We cheerfully devote portion
our columns this morning to the rela
ton of an event as agreeable in its M
ture as it was unlocked for in its oc
currence. Our readers viii bear il
mind that few days ago an elegan,
specimen of our national colors was
hoisted on the new flag staff at the
Chattanooga depot The occasion drew
together a large concourse of people to
witness the scene, and listen to the
patriotic sentiments there enunciated.
This beautiful flag which cost $3.50, was
subscribed for and bought by the Clerks
of Col Cranes Office, and, with the fol
lowing set of resolutions, most beauti>
fully executed in the highest style of
ehirography by Mr. John Crowley, one
of their number, presented to Colonel
Crane as a testimonial Of their regard
for him as an officer and gentleman.
In this connection we take pleasure
in adding our testimony to the distin-
guished ability Col. Crane has display
ed in the management of his response
BILE duties, to the zeal and fidelity with
which he has served the government;
and we also add our thanks for the
many improvements he has made about
the depot, and for the gentlemanly re-
oeption he has ever extended 10 those
who have had any business relations
with him:

The moment Federal soldier falls in
to their hands, they rob him Of his
