away from his master in this city to Clncin-

EVERY soldier knows, or ought to know,
that thirty-tive thousand of bis companions
are now dying by inches in Southern pris-
ons because ABRAHAM LINCOLN has refused
to exchange them until the South acknowl-
edges that negro is just as good as a
Union or rebel white soldier. To vote for

Tn THE STATESMAN of yesterday MORN
ing the following paragraph appeared q.
S.uC AI.IowAy, smarting under the em-
nhatjc defeat of the Shodoyitcs in this city,
En- q speech before crowd of drunken and
uproarious rowdies on the night OF election,
advocated negro equality and declared ne
Thought more of a negro than he did OF
Democrat; and that he despised and loathed
those men, who, coming from the despotism
of the old country, refused to indorse by
their votes the despotism of Abraham Lin
coin In this. We record this expression OF
undying Know -Nothingism for future ref
erence, and every foreigner in the army and
every adopted citizen should preserve 1t as
a relic of the barbarous and intolerant fam
atheism for which he votes in voting with
Sam Galloway. '.r
We did not pretend to quote Mr. GALLO
WAYS exact language, as any one can see
from the wording and punctuation Of the
paragraph. Mr.. GALLOWAY has called upon
us, to deny the construction placed upon
his words. OF course, he, being a supporter
of LINCOLN, did not pronounce his Admin
istration despotism. Neither did he de-
clare himself unequivocally for negro equal
ity. What he did say was: "That he thought
more of a loyal negro than he did OF dis
loyal traitor" In the clap-trap language
of many of the Administrationists, every
Democrat is considered to be "disloyal,' y
and, consequently, "traitor;" therefore,
in putting the construction on Mr.. GALLO
WAYS language, we stated it broadly as
above. He denies that it warrants that
construction, and we willingly accept his
denial. use
b Mr.. GALLOWAY also said: "That he de-
spised and loathed those men, who, coming
from the despotisms of the Old World,
unite themselves with those in this country
that are in favor of the subversion of lib
erty here" Whether or not this language
justifes the construction we gave it, the
reader can determine. We need only sug-
gest that there is radical difference of
opinion as to what "liberty" is-the De-
mocracy regarding the Administration
cause as the cause of despotism, while Mr..
GALLOWAY regards it as the cause OF liber-
ty. 1t is not our purpose to do injustice to
Mr.. GALLOWAY or any other man. We
cheerfully accept his denial of the construc-
tion we gave his language.

The Christinn Religion in America
F 2a N Dead Failure.

It would be no difficult matter to show
that the practice of the Christian religion
on the North American continent has de-
generated and deteriorated through the un-
worthiness OF the ministers of that religion
that its vital spirit has been gradually
waning during the last generation that a
nation, once renowned as confcssors and
almost as martyrs, and who elected to en-
dure exile and privaton that they might
keep their faith intact, have as a body Ell
ther sunk into skepticism, or retained of re-
ligion only its features, its forms and sim
ulacra-and that active and earnest Chris
tianity has become practically a failure
amongst TWENTY-FIVE millions Of people ewho
contemn its charitable and merciful doc
trines, and have for four years abandoned
themselves with scarcely a dissenting voice.

The Great Outrage nt Tod Bar-
U.-saLxG


The Journal undertakes to deny the charg-
es made against the tools of LINCOLN in
this vicinity. Certain facts are indisput-
able. Mr.. JANNEY WAS found at the Bar
racks talking with, if not ''tampering" with,
the soldiers. Whether in the yard or the
office-it docs not matter. He received no
warning to leave. He is a Republican.
He is Chairman of the Republican COM
mittee, we believe. He could remain after
SKILEs ordered the Democratic Chairman.
Mr.. BINGHAM, to leave; for he was seen there
after Mr.. BINGHAM was ordered out. 1t was
falsely pretended that our tickets could be
left in the yard for soldiers to find. But
we know that they would be missing after
being so left-likely all destroyed; for when,
after Mr.. B1NGHAM's election, Mr.. Cox went
there, he found the soldiers eager for the
Democratic tickets. 1t is pretended that
Messrs. Cox and BINGHAM were ''tamper-
ing" with the soldiers. What does this
charge mean? All they did was to give out
without word of ''electioneering"-their
tickets; and the officers knew this. 1t was
explained to them. But suppose they did
electioneer what then? Are JANNEY &
sco.to be permitted to fix things" and no
body counteract it?
1t was Major SKILEs who ordered Mr..
BINGHAM away from the soldiers; but when
Mr.. Cox came, SKILEs could not be found.
He sent an impudent underling, who re-
fused to give his name, to order Mr.. Cox to
desist from giving out tickets, and who
threatened to put him out If he continued.
These outrages bear their own commen-
tary.
