E1 Forney's Washington Chroni-
Gle, which is now devoted almost ex-
clusively to slandering Mcclellan, con-
tanned under date Of July 4th, 1862,
from Forney's own pen, The follow
ing:
"There can no longer be any ques-
ton that he is a military chief Of great
and commanding ability, and that in a
mazo Of unparalleled complications,
and against fanatic and fierce an
tagonism, he has exhibited patience,
perseverance, genius and courage. /
say this much, not by way of praise,
but as an act Of simple justice to a
man in whom SO many great trusts
have been reposed, and who hos not
disappointed public confidence.
at may be said that in Mt least two
of my former letters expressed a DIFF
ferent opinion. And it gives mo as
much pleasure to retract that judg-
ment as il gave me pain to record it."

The Difference.

There has always been and un-
doubtedly will DO as long as parties
have an existence, extreme men in
every political organization, one idea
men, who, intent upon the carrying
out of the most radical measures in
the direction in which their faith poin-
ted, look upon any proposition CON-
ing short of that end as a disgraceful
surrender of all principle, such IN an
eminet degree were the characteristics
of the original abolitionists, who as
Judge Birney says sowed the seed of
the present Republican Party. The
extremists in the Democratic organi-
zation were those who took exactly
opposite views upon the question Of
slavery from the abolitionists, regard
ing it MS blessing to all concerned,
claiming for it and for the localities
wherein it was established rights and
immunities, beyond what the loosest
construction of tho constitution would
warrant, or the utmost stretch of po-
litical charity tolerate, and however
different the ideas of these factionists
in the two parties, their general char
ncteristics, mental, moral and political
were the same "The Union is a
curse" said the abolitionist. "Amen,"
responded the fire-eater. Gan I'M
natural alliance" said the fire-eatcr.
"a covenant with DEATH" responded
tho abolitionist, and thus the two
worked together for OWL.
The difference in the treatment by
the several parties that while the Re-
publican organization became alto
gether absorbed and swallowed up by
tho radical element Of abolitionism,
the Democratic party stearing clear of
the extremes on either hand, and hav-
ing for its guidance the magic word
compromise" which as Jefferson said
is 1.-The vital principal of Republics"
now stands before the country as the
only political organization whose
avowed principles are such as to give
the faintest hope to the perpetuation
of our Republican institutions and the
restoration of our country to its once
proud and prosperous condition.

IL The atlantic Monthly, a peri
odical the whole abolition fraternity
swear by, contains the following left
handed compliment to our Irish pop
ulation:
1.-The emancipated negro is at least
rs industrious and thrifty as the Celt,
takes more pride in self-support, is far
more eager for education, and has
fewer vices. 1t is impossible to name
any standard Of requisites for the full
rights of citizenship which will give a
vote to the Celt and exclude the NO
gro"
All this follows logically from the
adoption by the republican party Of
the new.fangled doctrine of misoege-
nation.

EThe following republican tes-
timony on tho real value and actual
working of the Presidents emancipa-
ton proclamation, is from the radical
Cincinnati Gazette. Tho Gazette's '1oy-
alty" will be called in question if it
is not little more cautious. II says:
"Yet in the field Of actual military
operations is tho only place whore war
can have any practical effect on slave
ry, or whcro the military necessity on
which the President grounds his pro-
claimed emancipation can be alleged
to exist. On the one hand we have
the prompt and rigid suppression of
all practical measures against slavery
whore the military necessity can be
rubserved. On the other we have q
proclamation of emancipation upon
the plea of military necessity, which
exempted every foot of territory in
our military control, besides large
margin in Tennessee to. cover our flu
ture military progress. We are not
referring TO the exception of the slave
statcs not in the rebellion, but 10 the
Statcs of Louisiana and Tennessee,
which are as much in the rebellion ms
Georgia.
"The emancipation proclamation
put weapon in tho hands Of the en-
envy, North and South, while il did
not cmancipate a single slave. The
measures taken thus far for its cxecu-
ton have been tho continuation Of serf-
dom by military force, to await the
time when, by loose system of res
toration, the slaye-holding class shall
recover tho control Of the State"

EEThe fluctuations in value, by
which fortunes are suddenly lost, and
people are reduced in day from plen-
ty to poverty, come Of the miserable
financial policy of the administration
at Washington. As great failure as
is the administration politically and
militarily, it is even greater financial
ly. The crisis flowing from its folly
seems to be close at hand. Public
confidsnea is shaken. A crash il i'm
minent, and will soon come unless the
government policy be changed. The
only way to secure change of policy
is to make a change of men. The
latter is for the people to do.

Scrofula, Oh Kings EVIL,

is constitutional disease, corruption OF the
blood. by which this fluid becomes vtiatcd,
weak. and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervadcs the whole body, and may burst uut
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there oxe which it may
hot destroy. The scrofulo,s taint is variously
caused by mcrcurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy haEits, the depressing vices, and,
hbove all, by The venorell infection. What
ever be It's origin. it is hereditary in the con-
sttution, descending 'tlrOm parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
1t seems to be the rod Of Him who says 81

Its effects commence by deposition from the

which, Although not Scrufuous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in tho
afstem. Most Of the consumption which de.
ciNa6s the human family has its origin directly

destructive diseases of tie liver, kidneys brain,
