g.y" To BE Removed The Freeman Of
Webster City, says that Judge Hubbard's
great mistake was the appointment of
Warner H. Curtiss as Provost Marshal Of
this District and we would suggest to the
Judge that it is not too late to remedy
that little .faur pas.
The same paper in another article speaks
of the remova! of Capt. Cur,iss as an &C.
compIished fact: THE article in our pa
per of the 81 in reference to the removal
of the Board of Enrolment to Waterloo
has been copied and endorsed throughout
the District. We intend to have followed
1T up and brought out other points, and
should have done so, but We are not in
favor Of fighting dead men. We say this
because Of the fact that Capt. Curtss will
get his walking papers shortly, in all hu.
man probability"
We don't know anybody in this portion
Of the District disposed to demonstrate
against the decapitation of this arrogant
official A worse appointment! cannot
be made.

Pendleton DOdged.

ON the 18th day Of December, 1860,
Hon. Isaac 4. Morris, a democratic
member Of Congress for the Quincy.
Ill) District, offered the following res.
olution:
"Resolved, That we properly estimate
the immense value of our national
Union TO our collective and individual
happiness that we cherish cordial,
habitual, and immoYable attachment TO
it, that we will speak of it IS Of the
palladium of our political safety and
prosperity; that We will watch its pres
ervation with jealous anxiety; that We
will discountenance whatever may sug
gest even a suspicion that it can in any
event be abandoned, and Indignantly
ffown down the first dawning of every
attempt to ALLEVIATE any portion Of our
country from the rest, or enfeeble the
sacred ties which now link together
the various parts; that we regard il as
the main pillar of the edifice of our real
independence, the support of our tran
guilty at home, our peace abroad, our
safety, our prosperity, and that very lib
erty which we 50 highly prize; that we
have seen nothing in the past, nor do
we see anything in the present, either
in the election of Mr.. Lincoln TO the
Presidency of the United States. or
from any other existing cause, to justi-
fy its dissolution; that we regard its per
petuity as Of more value than the tens
porary triumph ofany party or any man;
that whatever abuses or evils exist IN
der il ought to be corrected within the
Union, in peaceful and constitutional
way; that We believe il has sufficient
power to redress every wrong and en-
force every right growing out Of its Oh
ganization or pertaining to its proper
functions, and that it is patriotic duty
TO stand by it as our hope in peace and
our defence in war.
When q vote was called on this reso-
luton, Mr.. PendletOn lodged. He was
not going to say that the election Of
Lincoln was not sufficient cause for Sc
cession that would not please his
Southern masters; therefore he found
il convenient to be absent. Nor would
he pledge himself to adhere to the
Union-not he. He was for letting the
South go in peace--for bidding them
an aflectionate farewell Yet this man
has the impudence to say he is a friend
Of the Union, and desires its preserYa-
ton

South, we,must defeat the rebel armies,

couraged; but that disposition should

Realize ihe sItuatIor.

Its the duty of loyal voters to fully
realize the situation ia which the coun-
try is placed. Upon them rests a re-
sponsibility greater than has ever be-
fore fallen upon the shoulders of any
body Of men They must meet the en-
envy, next Tuesday, and yindicate the
right Of the people to govern them
selves. The election Of Mcclellan will
result in the independence of the
Southern confederacy; and the corner
stone Of that Confederacy is slavery;
the slavery of 81 labOrers, without re-
gard to color; and the only safety lies
in his defeat
We believe loyal voters do fully re-
alize the situation and that on next
Tuesday, they will poll majority for
Lincoln and johnson, which viii for
ever blast the hopes of the rebels, and
their northern allies.

Why their tone is Changed.

Ne have often read in copperhead
papers, articles commendatory Of the
moderate tone OF southern conserva-
tives. at this time; and il Is always sue
ceeded by declaration that coDserY-
alive administration at the north would
restore the Union at once.
Wen We confess that the tone ofthe
traitors has changed considerably. But
whyl Did moderate while Mcclellan,
aud Buell. were in comriand Of the ar
mics, and conservation was predomi,

ton VIII some Of our copperhead
contemporaries point out the evidence,

The fact is, it was only aftera change
in the var policy, that the rebels began

brought on themselves it was only
then, that they found their resources
diminishing and their subjugahon in
