at stake? We wint a man who will try
compromise in the settlement Of our nation

thousands Of Republicans are looking for
If they want war man, they have as good
one as they could get in the person Of lin
coin. would as soon bedrattcd under him
as under War Democrat And / would
agree with Abraham. that it Is no time to

What we want is man who willgo back
to the policy of Washington and Jefferson,
and Madison and Clay, men whom you used
to swear by, and who settled national diiIi-
culties by compromise. Such man the
Democratic larty wiil bring forward for tbe
suifrages OF the people. When his name has
been announced, will be ready to discuss
the relative merits Of the several parties

house broken open. my body seized subiec-
ted to military control, banished through the
Southern lines, thence after ap absence Of Il

the same love of liberty, the same devotion
TO principles as in former years. And |

By the latest intelligence from the North, we
are informed that the entire militia force of
.Ysnkesdom has been called out for the term Of
six months, TO do home and garrison duty, in
order that the whole regular force may be
hurled against Richmond. This would seem to

EDITORS APPEAI:-From an article publish
cd in the Richnond SsatinsI, and republisbsd in
your journal, ] see there is much complaint Of
the great hardship of the law lately passed By
Congress, on the subject of ofieer's rasions.
The article in question says It operates vory op-
presSively and injuriousiy, because It does not
give a ration to the officers servant as well as TO
himself, whereby he is put to much annoyance
aud Inconvenience in procuring supplies for lhe
servant. It further calls upon all our Congress.
men to make note of this, and administer a
remedy Immediately upon their Aasomblage in
May.
Now. MessTs. Editors, with due respect to Of.
fcers, Why cannot the private be thought of in
this matter There are many privates in our
Army who have servants with them, and who
hnd it as difficult TO procure rations for the lat
ter, as the oficers do for their servants. And
why make The distinction Surely the officer
is able to provide for bis servant in the camp as
the Prfvste is for his. We call upon our Con.
gFsssmen to mako note Of this, a. well ss the
other, and moreover, consider that the private Is
entitled to some privileges as we'll as the officer.
