Volume by Horace Greedy. Pub
lishea BY 0. D. Case d Co., Hartford.
Cona. s
We have received the above named
volume from the publishers.
The name of the author alone is suf-
ficient guarantee of the value Of the Work
1t is, as its title implies, a history of the
Rebellion of the Southern States. This
Volume consists principally of review
of TIE causes (running all through the
history of our country from the founda-
ton of the Government that step. by
step, led us to the. present terrible state of
affairs, history of the memorable scenes
connected more Immediately with thu
breaking out of open hostilities in the
Spring of'61, ending with those of the
first year of the war and whilst General
Mcclellan lay in front of Washington
with his magnificent army.
It is destined to be one of the standard
histories of the exciting times in which
we live--is written in the usual attrac-
tive and forc;ble style Of the author, and
is well worth the reading.
Although but Il small part of the coun-
try has been canvassed $4,000 copies of
this volume have been subscribed for,
notwithstanding the fact that SO many
histories Of the Rebellion-somc Of them
popular, have lately been issued

STRATEGY.

The most remarkable piece of strategy
performed by General Mcclellan while
he was in command of the Army of the
Potomac, was his celebrated " change OF
base" from the swamps Of the Chickahom-
my to the banks of the james River
Still retaining Washington for his prima-
ry "base' he implored General Hallocly
to send him a mere tride of seventy oil
eighty Thousand more men in order tina,
he might attempt the Rebel Capital from
Harrison's Landing. Since his retirement
from "active service" and his close en-
brace of the Pease Democracy, be con
tinues mindful of his old tactics, and now
proposes to march on Washington with
Richmond for his base. We trust and
believe that his new campaign will be no
more successful than his old one, though
doubtless he will damage the enemy vast
ly more.

RETRIBUTrON,

At the time when Gen. Popcs disas-
trous campaign in Virginia, (undertakeu
solely for the generous purpose of saving
the wearied remnants of the Grand Army
of the Potomac) was eliminating in tn,
bloody battle of the second Bull Run
General Mcclellan, instead of obcyin2
the repeated and urgent orders of Gen.
eral Halleck to march to General Pope's
relief, occupied himself in giving to tho
President by telegraph from Alexandria
much nucailed for advice. Among
other patriotic and soldierly suggestion,
Of his in this crisis one was that . Gen
Pope should be leftto get out Of his scrap
The best roy he could" The Peace De.
mocracy seem much inclined at this time
to adopt this advice and apply it to the
reIoubtablc General himself, in the pend
ing political campaign,

THE NEXT GOVERNOR.

We are glad to notice in the Baltimore
american, a suggestion of the name of
Hon Henry Ii. Goldsborough, as the
candidate of the Unconditional Union
and Emancipation Party for the next
Governor of Maryland. 1t seems to us
that there is peculiar fitness in this sug-
gcstion, which should commend itself to
the hearty approval of every true Union
man among us. General Goldsborough
was among the earliest of that band OF
true patriots, who, when the very exis-
tence Of the Nation was menaced by the
rebellion of thu savef,olders, threw him
self into the contest Oh the side of his
country without reservation, and to his
personal influence and exertions, VIC
largely owe our triumph in the campaign
of 1868, as well as. in the struggle last
spring for the Constitutional Convention.
As President of the Convention he con.
tributed greatly to the formation of the
instrument, which the people are about
to adopt as the organic law of the State,
and his vote will be found recorded in IA
vor of all those distinctive featares, which
were impressed upon it by the radical
Emancpationists of the body. The only
other name which We have heard presen-
ted, is that of the Hon. Thomas Swami.
Without, derogatinS from the merits OF
this gentleman at all, and with all re-
spect for his character and ability We
cannot recognize any claim on his part t.
the support Of the Unconditional Union
lists and Emancipationists of the State. -
Throughout the contest he has acted with
the timid aud conservative Union men,
and bis influence has been steadily exer-
ted against those whom the majority Of
the party in Maryland have preferred to
honor with their confidence and support.
Should, therefore, the choice of the
Convention. of the 18th of October fall
upon Gen. Goldsborough as our standard
bearer. We shall support him with sin
cere pleasure, and peculiar satisfaction.

CENTRAL COMMITTEE.
THE NEW CONSTITUTION.

81 The result of the labors of the
State Convention lately adjourned
at Annapolis, is now before the peo-
pie of Maryland, and on the 18th
/, and 18th of next month they will
be called upon to declare, by their
gsvote; whether or not the instrument
-~there framed shall become the organ
ic law of the State.
,pgs Before entering upon an analysis
of the new Constitution, we wish to
say q word upon the subject of the
Convention which framed it, and es-
pecially upon the charge which has
been made against it in some good
Union quarters, of unnecessary pro-
traction of the session, and needless
delay in accomplishing the work with
which it was entrusted. Had such
accusations proceeded from our en-
semies, We should make no reply, but
as some of our friends, in their lau.
s6slable impatience for the completion
of the work have, to some extent.
-saHorded aid and comfort to the op
opposition, we feel called upon to say
q few. words in justification Of the
course pursued by the majority Of
That body.
-'sesi The Convention met on the twenty
-sseventh Of April, and Immediately
p proceeded to a permanent organiza-
tstion, affording perhaps the only in
sg.stancc on record of a like prompt
.,..tude on the part of similar body.
On the second day of its session, il
4 cenpleted the appointment Of its of
:. Beers, and ordered the selection OF
- its appropriate committees. A brief
adjournment to enable the President
torsppoint these committees followed,
and on the re-assemblipg Of the body

this resolution. They want the
ordinary reader to suppose that
they intenTto compl iment the
soldiers for doing what they have
done. But they don't mean any
such thing. If they had meant
it, why could they not have said,
"We tender our thanks to our
brave soldiers who have been
UNFOLDING our flag againstarned
rebellion ?" They could not say
it, because the traitors did not
mean it.
