To the Editors of The Evelsllg Post
L was at Niagra Falls this week, and
talked with many seeessionists oHithe Can
ada side. among which was several Of John
Morganis men and some of Mosbys gueril-
las. They talked very fercely about our
approaching Presidential election and they
ali concurred in. the belief that if McClel-
Ian is elected he will be governed by the
Chicago platform. "If he is not said one,
and all the rest assented, he will fbe dead
man within thirty days after his inaugural
ton; and Pendleton as President will bring
around a peace which shall give US our in
dependence or establish slavery in every
state in the Union. In that event the
North shall pay our war debt and the did
abolitionists shall be shot if they dare utter
the reasonable doctrines of abOdshing sl4v-
erv." 1 asked who would kill Mcclellan.
aThree hundred thousand men would quar-
rel for the privilege of doing it, # only his
life stood bets0een rs and success. was the
prompt reply. l believe these men were
sincere in their declarations, and ifMcOl lei
Ian should be elected and attempt to put
down the rebels, 1 would not give tenpence
for his life. =

AFnIsehood Repeated.

The World reiterates the lmpudent false
hood thatthe election last week in Maine
shows democratic gains" over last year,
din every county but two" This falsehood
was published in several of the leading Cop
perhead papers on Saturday morning, sole
" to get up little courage at their rati--
fcation meetings to be held that evening.
To have invented it, and for such pur-
nose, was very mean and very W .cked )
10 repeat it, after it has served its turn is
as foolish as it was villainous. The very
latest returns, figured up to yesterday
morning. and included 36l towns, cities
and plantations, show for Cony, Union,
"a sSs: for Howard, Dem, 80, 7o6 major
itv for Cony, 1852. The Democratic
vote which the World says has SO much
increased, ,is5, O55 less than last year, loss Of
nine per cent. Lincoln county, the only
one carried by the Democracy last year, is
now said to be Union by fifty majority. Il
is barely possible that they may have car
ried Aroostook county, (the pine forests o.
Madawaska;) and if so, they viii have one
State Senator to so Unionists, and possibly
about 25 members of the lower House tt
l25 Union men. And this is what the
World calls a democratic victory : II
Maine.
But to anticipate very small quloble
let us admit that, from the latest figures
the Union majority SO far this year Is 664
less than last year; yet we have gained one
member of Congress, gained probably
one State Senator, and PIE surely half
dozen members of Assembly. So much
for Democratic victory in Maine, and tht
brazen mendacity of the WOTId.-N 7
Tribune.

John Brown.

The Sandusky Register says of Brown +;
This gentleman, a son of the great Ossa-
watomie Brown, of Harper's Ferry fame,
lives on Put-in-Bay Island, where he is en-
gagged in the grape culture. Being among
the first Of the patriots of the Island to
discover the rebel conspiracy to release the
rebel prisoners on. Jobnson's Island, he at
once manned boat, armed the crew to the
teeth, and set sail by aroundabout way for
Ottawa City-in order to avoid falling in
with the pifates-to give information to the
commander of the post Of Johnsons Is
land of the seizure Of the Phiio Parsons.
He arrived at Ottawa City about dark, and
from there footed along the shore to Foxs
Dock, arriving about daylight the next
morning.

; There are two classes that make furi-
ouslhowling over the enormity and barbar-
ity Of Cen. shernan's order, by which At
Ianta is freed from its rebel population, the
rebels and the copperheads. The best re-
ply to both is the admirable letter of Gen.
Sherman, in which he exposes the barbar-
iityiof the rebellion, and justihes the human
ityi of an order which merely places the
women and children of Atlanta among
their friends, whose duty it is to take care
of them. Gen. Sherman has large army
at Atlanta, with but one line Of railroad to
bring forward supplies, with a-eouptry
about him entirely stripped Of everything
mon which man or beast might feed, and
with a base of operations many miles away
It Is not wise therefore, for him to endan'

We need no seventh son of seventh

aristocracy of New York will be reinfor-
eed by the manufacturing and contract
aristocracy of New England, the new
fiedged anthracite aristOcracy of Eastern
Pennsylvania, and the petroleum aristoc-
racv of Western Pennsylvania.
Z The high price of coal has transformed
the Eastern Pennsylvanians into million

they have found new California under
their feet, and money bvbbles up to them
in the form of coal oil. Farmers who earn
ed their sour bread by the sweat OF their
broEs a few years ago now roll in wealth
and carriages. Farms which were worth
only worth a few. thousand dollars before
coal oil was discovered, are now valued at
as many millions. The ploughshares have
been exchanged for shares of petroleum
stock. Quondam agrieulturists have be-
come capitalists. Their wives and daugh-
ters have stepped from the kitchen to the
boudoir, and relinquished the Churn for the
piano. These wonderful changes, which

why Early has been Kept IN the snen-
andOah. VaIley-COnsequenees OF MS
Defeat.
The New York Herald says:
But here the inquiring reader may ask,
Why is it that Early, with his twenty-five
OF thirty thousand men, has remained 50
long in the Shenandoah Valley, when eyl-
IDENTIFY ZEE has been and is sorely IN need
of him and his troops for the defense oil
Richmond7. We answer that Early, IN the
Shenandoah Valley was charged with
very important role in support of Lee. In
the first place he was charged with the
gathering of the wheat harvest of the val
| ley for the subsistence of Lees army. In
the next place, the presence Of rebel
column of twenty-five or thirty thousand
men lowering near the Upper Potomac re-
ouired at least an equal Union force to
watch its moyements. Next by some sue
cessfu1 trick of strategy, there was achanee
that the Union force might be deeoyed into
a snare, cut to pieces, or driven helter-
skelter back into the defenses at Wash
Sagton, necessitating another call upon
i General Grant for assistance. Next, by
the occupation of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, Early would materially retard the
/ reinforcement of Grants army from the
West and the transportation of MS supplies
from that quarter. Next, by standing
guard near the outlet of the Shenandoah
/ valley Early protected Lee on the north
and west, and especially against another
hostile descent upon Lynchburg- -an i'm
portant depot Of supplies to Richmond
Finally, as the raids of Early into Mary
land and Pennsylvania had always yielded
the most desirable stores of pfunder, he
by hovering near the border, might havi
other opportunities for additional capture
of horses and cattle, -four and corn, drugs
ary guoos 1liiGA- 5E'il 49, Aa''A-' A---- -
shoes. .-5-.--.
These inducements, objects and necessi
J ties will show that, Notwithstanding tn
heavy pressure upon Lee, his lieutenant
q Early, has been doing good service in tn
! Shenandoah valley, both in the subsistence
and defence Of Richmond. Dislodged an
put to rout from his chosen position on tn
q Opeduan, an admirable stream for defensiv
I military purposes, Early has sacrificed a
; the advantages suggested. The Baltimor
n and Ohio Railroad is relieved, and wi

# General Sheridan is pursuing the broke
: and demoralized fragments OF the la

4 Fine seheme for paying Debts.

f- A Fine Scheme for paying Debts
Id The Richmond ErampaeT, in discussing
the ability of the South to pay a debt Of
two billions, says 1t can edone by levying
tax Of five cents a pound on all cotton
exported, thus making other nations pay
the price Of rebellion. In caseof the in
dependence of theSouth, the North would
be obliged to pay about one third Of the
amount thus raised. Now this would be a
fine scheme for the Southern Confederacy.
After having involved the nation in a great
civil war, and made.a great national debt
necessary, they propose to make the people
of the North assist in paying the price Of
their enormous guilt. The reverse Of this
would be justice. An export duty on cot
/. ton Of i've cents q pound, should be levied,
after the rebellion is subdued, to pay off
the debt Of the United States Government
In 1860 ], ,7s7, $50, ,sss pounds were export
ed, which, at five cents pound, would
yield $685., ,3ls,eOi at ten cents,
3. doablethe amount, sufficient topay the in
terest on our whole national debt and pro
vide a sinking fund for its gradual reddc-
tion. x a.a... .srr1 q
God The great financial problem s,then,
shall the Union. bedissolved and the North
pay the rebel debt in addition to its own,
