WoX'T co THE WAR PLATFORM "A
short time since the Washington cores
pondent of the New York Herald stated
that the Democratic members of Com
gress had come to the determination to
take higher and more patriotic grounds,
and support the vigorous prosecution of
the war. The Cincinnati Enquirer re-
pudiates the Statements says.
We have a,report in the. New York
HeraEds Washington special that the
Democratic henderson, Congress had a
meeting to discuss their future polieEs
and that there was a general feeling for
voting men and money to carry on the
war vigorously. This. is, doubtless, a lie
made out of whole -cloth.@ Democrats
have made up their minds, if the war
machine is to, continue to run, hat the
Republicans should keep it. in motion
1t is their war-fhey started it, and they
win be held responsible for its its result.
This is pretty fair illustration of the
patriotism of. acknowledgements

The 1Sa0A Clause

The efforts that are evidently, and
somewhat .adroitly being made, to pre-
vent the repeal of the $500 exemption
clause, after such pertinacous hostility
to that particular feature in'the conscrip-
ton law, by the Democratic press and
politicians, manifest the utter and entire
want of principle by which their opposi-
ton to the Administration is governeds
When the bill was first introduced they
sought to inspire the jealousy of classes,
and array the less favored against the
wealthy. s They denounced the measure
as the assrich mans bill,n and commended
that while 1t relieved those who would
raise the $500, from. military duty, it CO.
creed the needy and INDECENT to take
up arms for the protection of the prop
erty and lives, of those thus exempted.
How changed is the tune The Of
fensive clause has suddenly become very
popular with those .croakers, who inits
probable repeal have experienced sat
isfaetory appreciation of its indispensi-
BILE utility They apprehend now that
the repeal of that hunanitarian and be-
neyolent clause will run up the price of
substitutes to suchan extravaganza and
exorbitants extentias to place it beyond
the reach of the poor man, who can have
no show whatever !
!, Has it never been taken into consider.
ations that. these Democratic leaders and
advisers, and log-rollers are opposed to
the further prosecution Of the war, and
secretly sympathize with the rebels? Is
it not apparent, without going behind
the occasional manifestations that un
willingly leak, out, that they are $ oppos
ed to more men and more money3-that
they would not give /" another dollar OF
another man for Lincoln army2" IL
We need go no further than the Gin
ciinnatia Enquirer for an example. 1
haslnot yet vouchsafed anIexplanation o
1 its sudden conversion, but gives frequen
and unmistakablei evidence that it ha
become enamored of that special claus
which it formerly held in such uncon
eealed abhorrenee-Gin .=4imes.
