West to escape the curses of what we calf
American civilization They seek peace,
IN order that when all else has been lost the
future rewards of labor may be preserved

Uhlon we have given million of lives, and
hall million OF brave soldiers now stand
ready to add their blood TO the sanpuine
Lake. that knows no filling. Rebellion is
confronting us yet. Is it weaker than n
wasY Public opinion says yes.
lake the newspaper press of our country
and add up for yourselves the reported de-
sertions of rebel troops for the last two
years, and it equals the original military
strength of the South. The same authori.
ty tells us that the rebel armies are in a
state OF starvation, and in the same column
reports the destruction of commssary
store: on the outskirts of rebeldom sufficient
to subsist their armies for three months
We are told by the reports of chief engin-
GERS and major-generals in command that
forts have been leveled by our artillery have
become mass of shapeless ruins and una.
vailablc for defense. These forts, for sixth
months thereafter have held in security con.
tederate garrisons, and they yet from def
ance at our iron-clad navies.
For three years the armies of the rebel.
lion have defied our power In April 1861,
the Executive and his advisers thought that
seventy five thousand men could suppress
the out break in three months. In July,
1861, the Congress supposed that five hun
dred thousand men would soon complete the
work. With an army of many hundreds of
thousands now in the field, the same au-
thorltles regarded it necessary to add seven
hundred thousand more to the present
force.
Who is the man that thinks the rebellion
weaker day than it was one, two, or three
years ago 1t is easy to say we think it
weaker! Indeed it may not be so strong;
but our accious give no evidence that such
is our opinion. If deceiving others be ex-
cusable, It's scarcely so to deceive ourselves.

Just about to make the demand on you; but

yearly $4,000 apiece to members of Cong,

pay the Government $3, 900 for the privilege
of being members, and probably they would
not be much worse than the present set

The late great fair for the benefit of the
soldiers, held in Ohio it is said, made a

they will account for it.

Baker at HE olice to gain some information

Brig. Gen. Duncan, regularly elected BY the
esgsnisation, was received with the courteey
due his rank, and WAS welcomed to the SER

hsve no menber Of the brigade who ranks

would profit by this hint, no difficulty would
be found in raising recruits for the held, aad
and no further draft would be necessary

head.

The Mexican Question.

The Archduke and Archduchess Maxi
milan arrived at Paris on the 5th. and pre-
ceeded forthwith to the Tuileries, where
they we're received by the Emperor and
Empress of the French. Their stay in
Paris was not expected to be over four or
Eve days. The arrangements for the Arch
dukes departure from Trieste would be
completed on the 18th Of March.
A Paris telegram asserts that an arrange
ment has been effected between the Emper-
or Napoleon and the Archduke whereby
the latter finally agrees 10 accept the throne
Of Mexico, but it is said he will make this
acceptance formally known to the Mexican
deputation at Miramar, where the offer was
6rst made to him.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Times says the Archduke would visit Lon
don in few days. That be accepts the
throne, it is said, with war debt Of $780,.
OOO, 900 francs, and that the Mexican army
will be organized under the auspices of the
French, and portion Of the French forces
will remain some time in the country, with
the character of a foreign legion. When
oil this is done, France will consider her.

That restless dsrhagogue, and type Of rotten,
pro slavery Dempcraey. Andrew J. Mod, con.
tinues to squihn about, playing the role Of .
slyly working t" the end that the ras-
cality Of the last Legislature may be fastened
upon the people. There can be such o tn'ns as
an honest politician, but Mead lacks every essen
tial of such a character. The offal Of . eofruPt
and traitorous party, now battling against the
Ihert;es Of the people, We find him secretly con-
aiming for the same object, with not q whit
better excuse than his brother Democrats OF
South Carolina. We admire the man for his
pluck, mingled with disgust for his hrazen-
facedness, in engaging in public affairs after the
oft-repeated and withering rebukes administered
by the people of his own county and town. But
this trait of character is not surprising Inc
devil is q persevering chap. and SO are MS pro-
teges. Lacking natural ability, Mead Is unu'
sual!y presumptuous.
We are willing that political opponents
should work legitimately for each others over
throw but when the rights and liberties OF the
people are un.crupulously sought to be sacrificed
for the accomplishment Of such an object no
matter by whom, we enter our solemn protest.
The Senatorial election cannot be characterized
only as political trick, and when we hear
man UNFOLD it whom we know is not fool, we
set him down as knave-for such are the only
classes of men supporting this outrage. When q
plain, palpable wrong is committed we hoid
there can be no honest motives OF Just'ncauon'
We are led to these reflections BY reported
interview between Mead and the Hon. ). D.
Brumbaueh. And here let US say, that Mead
makes no secret of his motives actuating him t0
the support of the fraud. While lobbying q
Topeka last winter he endeavored to enlist brun-
baugh in the support Of the swindie' appealing
to his Democratic impulses, assigning As MS
chief and only reason, THE OVERTHROW OF THE
REPUBLICAN PARrY! But Mr.. Brumbaugh pos
sessed too much integrity Of character to oe
Influenced by such motive. The man IN him
rose above the miserable. sneaking, contemplate
partisan, who thus approached him.
will the people countenanee men Who ae'
upon such vital question from such impure
motives? Will they submit to the promPt'ngs
Of such demagogue until their Liberties are gone
from them? Will they permit man who sinks
his nobler nature below the vilest, basese parti
sanship to lead or mould public opinion We
have too much confidence in the people OF Riley
county to make such an appeal directly to them
We would only ask them to make stronger the''
seal os condemnation. They are doubtlessawa
that in Mead they possess the most restless, reck
less, and withal no-account, harmless, dems
gogue, of any portion Of the State
