Conduct Of the War, in the Senate, and Mr..

upon the condition OF the returned prison.

made at the request Of the Secretary of

EN- Irn Ihp nId Rsrtments.

Il is now the settled determination Of
the people OF the North to stand by the
Administration and help it fight out this
war to a successful issue. Copperheadsl
if they will not help, should 81 least hush
their craven clammoFing for peace and
cease any further outward attempts at op-
posing the efforts Of the Government The
way 10 peace is now open and with the
coming spring our armies should move
rapidly and strike efsetuslly. The blows
should be 5hort snd sharp and the days Of
the rebellion will soon be over. With q
played out currency, Disconnected army,
lack Of faith in their leaders, large
proportion OF the people threatening open
violence, and three States knocking at the
door Of the Union for re-admission, it
needs only few more vigorous, telling
blows to overthrow the whole rotten fab.
ric of the bogus Confederacy and plant
anew the authority Of the Constitution
and the laws.
To effect this we must present an un-
broken front to the enemy. The only
thread Of hope upon which the rebels are
hanging their cause is that at the e1pira
ton Of the three years term Of service cur
men would not re. enlist. But in this they
are sadly disappointed. Our gallant vet
erans are re enlisting almost en- HlasSS, and
we must still farther aid them by filing
up the places of those who have been killed
in battle or by disease. The splendid war
worn regiments returning to their homes
daily must 60 back to the field filed up to
the maximum. They must oppose full
ranks to the depleted and wasted rebel
regiments. With the return Of Spring,
tens Of thousands Of new bsyonets must
glisten over the border, and as the old
Gag once more goes forward, victory will
follow in its train The rebels can raise
no more men. We have but begun to
touch cur resources. Fill up the regiments
and then forward. The very sight Of
these old regiments coming back, filed up
again, will be worth the best battle Of the
war in it's moral effect, and will turn the
discomfort already prevailing in the South
into despair. The rebel cause is lettering;
now is the time to strike Chicago TTib.
