DEMocsATIc syMpATHY FOR SO LDIERs.

In his recent speech at Dayton Gen. r. q.
SCHENcK thus ventilated the sympathy"
plank OF the Chicago platform;
There is another plank in the platform, and
think it is the tail of the whole. The Chi
cago Convention express its deep sympathy
with our soldiers in the field, and its determ
nation to give to them their care and pro-
lection, in the event of their attaining power.
What do you think of that, soldiers, if there
are any here? Would you not like to have
little manifestation of the love and sympathy
in advance, before you trust these fellows
Don't you think it strange that, as a party,
they have always opposed your right to vote
while you were absent fighting for your fire.
sides and your glorious country? Would it
rot have been more becoming in them, with
Geo. Pendleton at their head, to have voted
for money to pay you, and for more troops to
reinforce you, before they begin talking such
hypocrisy? The care and protection Of the
dear soldiers Suppose the dear soldiers had
no votes, would their bowels of compassion
have been so much moved Suppose they
had succeeded 10 preventing the soldiers from
voting, would you have the plank in the plat
form / rather think not. A vote is po-
tent thing. 1t has the effect 10 striking back
ward that the bayouet has in striking forward.
A ticket and bullet in the hands OF SOL
dier will kill rebel H either direction.
Suddenly, after calling them Lincolns hire
lings, denouHcing them in public and private,
they are filled with love for the dear boys in
the field, and want them to understand, if
they will help them to put the Democratic
party to power, nobody will SO well protect
| them as they will.
know something of the feelings of sol,
diers. 1 know soldiers are not fools. [
know with what acorn they spit upon and
despise such hypocritical pretcnses now when
wanting their votes, when it is necessary to
get their help. You can not catch these
birds with that kind of chaff You must try
other stuff to put upon the tails of your
game, if you expect to put any of them ia
your trap.
They despise your pretenses, and abomin-
ate your hypocrisy, when you go forward now
with your pretended love for them. These are
the men, and it is for you to say whether you
will go with the Union people who stand by
their Government and fight the rebellion, or
whether you will 60 with this pretended Dem
ocratc party, who do not fight the rebellion,
nor stand by the Government, but assail the
administration and the authorities of that

aversion for "the vandala.' Yet they are not
unwilling to display the latest Southern fash
ions and most recherche Southern toilet in
many daily promenade in full view of Yam
kee optics. Ga the other hand they seem
rather fond of improving every opportunity
for an exhibition of their precious selves to
the vulgar gaze of thronging blue coats; i'm
agiuing no doubt that our nerves are unaccus-
toned to being impressed by such trauscen-
dent female lcveiness. And yet nine cases
out of ten these gentle creatures are indebted
for what little culture or refinement thev NAV
have to Northern books. teachers or schools
and have done little dlring their natural lives
except humping upon Northern pianos a smat-
tering Of music taught them by Northern
governesses. AprOpos of pianOs, permit me
to say that while am writing this a soldier
boy of our Brigade, one whose home is 10 the
prairie west and who has passed through the
privations of the long campaign is improving
a Boston piano in adjoining room about as
skillfully as could probably be done by any
lily fingered lady in Atlanta. The hands that
draw lanyards and pull triggers in behalf of
the Union are by no means all strangers 10
the fue arts Of life. On the contrary the
amount of culture and intelligence which
careful observation discovers in the ranks oil
an army is truly surprising. Our soldiers re
feet immense credit upon the free institutions
under which they have been nurtured aud
which have extended the priceless boon OF
moral aud intellectual improvement.
The recent raid made upon the communica-
tions of this army by the rebel General
Wheeler caused temporary suspension OF
mails, but otherwise occasioned no serious en-
barrassment. 1t is a remarkable fact that
through campaign the army has operated in a
wild aud destitute country and has frequently
abandoned its communications liz order to ex-
eeute hanking movements, yet it has not been
short of supplies for single day. The enemy
in all his efforts to destroy our railroad has
accomplished little except to wear out his
horses aud weaken his force in our front. Vast
quantities of supplies of every kind are now
being brought here by rail and are being
stored away for future use in the depots aud
warehouses of the city.
A clear calm September night, made radi-
ant by fuIl-orbed moon, tempts me from
this prodtless writing. It is one Of those glO-
rious Southern evenings the inspiration OF
which it is easy to feel but impossible to de-
scribe. It is a time when earth seems to1ched
with too much of heavens beauty to be the
corrupt and sinful world that it is.
Alas, for the delusion

Col. Ii. Blair Wilson, "Democrat an
Union man." addressed good sized audience
at the Court House last friday evening"
He stated that he had hoped that the Chicago
convention would nominate War Democrat
upon a War platform, but they had nomina-
ted War Democrat upon Peace platform,
with peace candidate for Vice President,
and he not being OF that class who, like Val
landigbam, Medary and JEFF. Davis, were,
democrats but Copperbeads," could not sup
port it. He proceeded to dissect the Chicago
traP, and closed his address by calling upon
all Union men, Democrats or otherwise, to
support Lincoln ard johnson. His remarks
were enthusiastically received, and his speech
pronounced the best ofthe season.-SPring-

pictured doubled-headed lHsus nature, one

olive branch of peace. Three persons are rep

ferent staud-po through telescopes of ap-
parently equal size the first seeing the amia-

says: This platform looks too much like
peace it don't meet my views The second
