A Significant Fact.

1t Is a conceded fact, 10 various forms test
ed throughout the Federal army and navy,
that large majority Of the officers and SOL
diers are in favor Of suppressing the rebellion
by force Of arms, and Of abolishing its cause
No matter what their views on the subject
when they enlisted-pro-slavery or anti-sla-
very-nor whether they were Democrats or
Republicans-the great bulk of the army and
navy will consent to no peace with the rebels
short of their unconditional surrender, and no
reconstruction of the Union save on the basis
Of universal freedom.
3 II any doubt of this fact remains, its solu
ton is near at hand. The eighth of Novem-
Der will give the staggering blow to the re-
bellion; and with it will speedily fall the mis-
cradle cause, which is the inexpressible curse
Of the human race. uqg
But this great fact is'peeuliarly significant.
and should mantle the cheeks of many So
called Democrats with shame. There are
men In the army and navy-life-long Demo-
crats-who are exposing their lives to the
deadliest fire Of the enemy by rushing into
sAAO sAAANhOcs va tAO COuuhCt, uOb Ouly luat LulS
wicked and causeless rebellion may be effect
ually subdued, but also that slavery may be
utterly abolished. They know and they feel
that there is no other alternative, that yolun-
tary submission or crushing out is the only
remedy, and that there can be no permanent
peace in any other way.
And yet, they find among their former DO
litical associates at home, in the quiet enjoy
ment Of their possessions, far removed from
all personal danger, and subject to no sacrifice
that is worthy to be named, those who en-
deavor to block the wheels of Government,
who sympathize with the rebels, and are ready
to enter into negotiations for peace which
contemplates recognition of their independ-
ence, and the establishment of confederacy
within the limits of the Union.
Now we asks this democratic? Is It
patriotic? Is il the kind OF support and en-
couragement our soldiers had reason to ex-
pect from their friends when they entered the
service? Is 1t not rather shameful abandon
nent of the soldiers to the tender mercies of
,he rebels, and of the cause of the Union
which they have so long protested to esp ouse
The light Of history will fash on such treach-
Try to the enduring shame and confusion of
It's authors.
