The New York Daily News supports Nc
Clsllan. 1t also supports JEFF Dasis. Recently,
in editoria lily discussing the probable truth OF
the rumor that Gov. Brown, OF Georgia, had
opened negotiations with Gen. Sherman, looking
to a return of that State to the Union, this pre-
cous copperhead paper said
The withdrawal Of Georgia from her sister
States Of the Confederacy in this hour ot their
supreme uial, Is supposItion that involves
depth of baseness which dispassionate witnesses
must admit conflicts directly with all the teach
ings of the political history OF the States oi the
south"

through his election the Independence OF the

lrmistice and convention OF the States
What alter that2 They may not make peace,
aud then what is II be done? But first, how is
the convention to be called? 1t requires two
thirds Of Congress ~ vote for such call, which
call must be ratified by three-lourths OF the
States aud these votes you never can get
What chance is there OF getting three-louffhs oil
the States to 60 fora convention ior the purpose
of bringing US under jeff. DAVIS, or for dividing
the Unioni The thing II absurd. IL cannot
be done, what then Then we are 10 favor OF
any otier peaceable remedy. Dear, blessed
souls Any other peaceable remedy nothing
that is not peaceable. Now, for Gods sake,
and for your country's sake, look at 1t. Here
We are, after between three and four years var
alter spending TWO or three thousand millions oi
dollars after spling the blood Of million OF our
brothers ,and consgning five hundred thousand Of
them to their graves after conquerlng 90 ex
tent of territory 1900 miles 10 length by oOO IN
breadth we have an army in every safe Of the
ConIederacy, and the majority OF them under
our control va have every stronghold taken
from them except Mobile and Charleston and
Richmond and notwithstanding all this We
are asked az il we were set OF pOltr00ns, 10
disgrace ourselves to the latest Generation oil
mankind, to sacrifice everything We have fought

the world say free government Is worthless,
that il cannot take care Vt Itself. God Almigh'
ty in heaven grant that every man whr utters
such thought may be choked until he becomes
pentent and better man (Great appliuse.)
No, sir no, sir we will never do any such
thing. We love peace-love 1t for lts own sake:
They love peace because they are afraid We will
first whip the rebels and then punlsh them.
They want peace that they may make new con-
spiraces, and the peace they propose IS dlSunlon
peace, which means separation OF the States
and endless ruin to the whole country. Ten
thousand tlnes better would it have been for US
to have scquesced at first, and never shed
drop Of blood, than under these circumstances
and at this time to make such peace as that, "

| "Loyali.t" says that he remembers being
asked by General Scott what we thought of Little
| Macs release OF the first 600 prisoners taken in
West Virginia. Our opinion was, that it was an
gorgeous error, if not an evidence Of tenderness
for the rebellion. Next came bis Infamous order
threatening the slaves OF Rebels with extermina-
ton if they should dare rise upon their masters
at war with the United States. 1t was direct aid
and comfort to the enemy-no.hing more, nothing
les.
The ASSUMPTION to himself OF the whole credit
Of the first Wsu Virginia campaign, when Rose
Grams, Reynolds, Benham, and Others, did all the
genenlship and fighting, while Little Mac was
lolling on bis sofa at his headquarters in Cncin-
natl, was his first blow at the independence of the
army proper and the first evidence Of his design
to use his power to build up military party, by
whose aid he hoped to lill himself into the
Presidency, sooner or later.
Among the encouraging signs in the Demo
cratic meeting at Philadelphia last Saturday was,
that while a club was forming at the corner of
Fifth and Prune sts., preparatory to marching,
one Of its members wore small Confederate flag
pinned m his coat sleeve. Right Let us have
an open fight mons claiming to be for the Union
on Peace principles with War Democrat for a
leader.
1t. Gen Grant in returning to the army from
his brief visit to his family at Burlington, n. j.,
was delayed on the road between Philadep phia
and Wilmington by a railway accident, the loco
motive having run of the track. The disaster
might easily have been forseen II the railway
managers had only locked at the name Of the
locomotive, which was Gen. Mcclellan" The
engine could not 20 ahead properly any more
than It's namesake.
| On all wellconduced railways it is quite com
mon 10 read the following sdmonitory notice,
conspicuousy displayed in the cars sit is dan
gerous TO occupy the platform" SO, evidently,
thinks Mcclellan In regard tn the platform erected
for him at Chicago Hence bis anxiety TO prose-
cute the Presidential Journey on some other part
Of the train.
A Democratic paper said on Saturday last :
Z" The first armistice has been asked by Gen.
Sherman and granted by Hood" This il a mis-
take. The first armisoe was asked for by Gen.
Lee, and granted by Gen. Mcclellan, after the
tattle of Antietam, under cover OF which Lee
escaped with his entire army across the Potomac.
