GEN. HaI,ecIx ON ,Ihe Crisis.

The few who have access to Gen. Halleck
make no secret that his views of the pres
ent crisis are most Responding. He express
es himself as grateful that the responsible
ty for the situation is on other and higher
shoulders than his own. 1t seems the mo-
ment he heard that the Lynchburg expedi-
ton had been beaten back by superior
forces sent from Gen. Lees army, he warn
ed his superiors that an immediate North
ern invasion might be looked for. The
warning was not credited at the time, nor
were any preparations made to resist it un-
til the enemy were in Maryland. 1t thus
happened that If Gen. Early had advanced
directly upon Washington without halting
to plumber, the only forces he would have
found behind the vast circumvallating
works of the city would have been about
four thousand five hundred of the invalids,
or Veteran Reserves, together with trem-
ulous armed rabble Of about seven or eight
thousand scared militia and clerks in the
public offices. OF the Veteran Reserves
about two-thirds were actually fit for duty;
but could these have contended with any
success against the thirty thousand rebel
veterans who were without the walls, and
the scared riffraff aforesaid and the excita-
BILE secession population who were within?
These matters may now be safely talked Of
as Washington is abundantly defended and
able to resist, with proper management, all
the forces of the rebel Confederacy. 1t has
been SO only very lately. A7n Aflinf p

Old Father ABRAHAM is rapidly reaching
his true level in the political system. His
cause appears to be caving in, like rotten
pumpkin, on all sides at the same time. The
telegraph informs us that a paper from II.
WINTER DAVIS, lately an ardent supporter
of the Administration, is being circulated,
In which he comes out against the smutty
joker with all the vim and vigor for which
DAVIS is noted. DAVIS isin favor of another
convention to nominate candidate repre-
senting Republicanism as he understands
1t. This letter, coming upon the heels of
old BEN WADE's acid-like protest. will
doubtless bring old ABE to realization of
the desperate condition of his political for
tunes, and influence him tn favor still more
the reckless, arbitrary and tyrannical meas
ures which have long ago alienated the
people, and are now dividing his own par
ty. All that is necessary to extinguish him
is the nomination of a good man by the
Chicago Convention. The shoddy Admin
istration win then disappear in a series of
beautiful dissolving views. Peace and the
Union will be restored, and the nation en-
ter upon new career of happiness and
prosperity. rHi 81 sra Eygef

How Much ii has Cost 10 Make
Wendell Phillips Happy.

More than half million niggers who,
three years ago, were fed by planters on hog
and hominy, are now fed by the United
States on hard tack and salt horse. To bring
about this change in the condition of these
niggers it has cost the United States about
FIVE thousand dollars and the life of one
white man per nigger. Has the change in
the condition of the niggers been of any adj
vantage to them commensurate with this
price? No. No one can pretend that the sa-
Bile wretches were not In all respects better
as they were. But we have gained
one great point by this change - we
have made Wendell Phillips happy
Another great point gained is that we
have satisfied Garrison, Greeley and Exeter
Hall. Can free people desire to barter ma
tional prosperity for nobler purpose than
this? Northern and Southern men, to the
number of million--the first choice and
very flower of the race--have fallen in bat
tie or have died more horriblyin hospitals,
and the nation is nearly broken down with
financial embarrassments, and all this has
been done to make some hundreds of thOus-
ands of niggersy even more wretched than
they were--and to make Wendell Phillips
happy. Has any one the impudencet to COM
plain that this is a very large price for a
very little whistle? Send him to Fort Lafa-
yette. .iRBH ~ hsf'Higany Igiffnm19

Ren. EggIeston,s Candidacy.

The Cincinnati Commercial speaking Of
BEN. EGGLEsToN's nomination for Congress,
and his organ, The Gazette, holds the follow
ing language. applicable to the Abolition
party generally: '-
The fact that a man can control a pre-
cinct or ward, that he Is clever in political
thimble- rigging, and knows how to manip-
ulate delegates, and pack Conventions,
would constitute him person whose am
bition, unsupported by reasonable qualifi-
cations, should be checked by wholesome
restraint, rather than flattered by cringing
concessions. Such men are the source of
political corruption. For ability they sub
stitute adroitness, for rinexperience imperti-
nence, for ignorance selt-blown insolence,
and for merit party service, which they ad-
vertise with as much effrontery rs a wanton
her paint and tawdry. 1t has come to
pretty pass when man can set up his 10y
atty or his partisan devotion as something
to be rewarded, and so remarkable that he
must have the gratuity he demands in
dependent of all other considera-
tions. If his loyalty leads him to pledge
his life, his fortune, and his sacred honor to
his country, he does no more than is re-
quired of every man when that country is
imperilled. If his partisan devotion con-
sists in making harangues, chiefly valuable
as demonstrating possibilities IN acoustics
hitherto unattained by auctioneers OF char
Goals; if it consists in being standing can
didate for office, his mouth open, as young
robins greedy for any chance worm that
may be dropped into it; If it consists in
worming himself and his ward-satraps into
primary meetings, controlling and shaping
their action chiefly to advance his own in
terests, then it is possible that a public
journal, which has so profound a regard
for party that it dare not discuss the quail
fications of candidates before a convention,
or refuse to support them after they are
fastened upon the party, can be readily
found to plead his partisan cause and claim
for him the reward which his extraordinary
services merit.
These remarks hit ABE LINCOLN as well
as BEN EGGLEsToN. a. sr.rs
Here follows photograph of the old Gin
cinnati Gazette and the Abolition press:
We can not support Mr.. Eggleston for
Congress, simply because we believe him
untitled for the position. That he is uned-
ucated and presumptuous is his misfortune;
that he thrusts himself upon the public
without consulting his capacity tor the po-
sition he aspires to, constitutes his offense.
That he is patriotic man and useful citi-
zen, and tolerably adapted to fill the posi-
tions he has hitherto sought, may be true;
but when he seeks to climb to higher ele-
Walton, and uses his expertness as ward
politician to defeat the desire of the people
to be represented by man eminent for his
ability, but ignorant OF the little arts which
Mr.. Eggleston assiduously cultivates, he
need not expect us to follow the dictates of
a partisan paper that substitutes forts own
convictions the dictum of convention. and
esteems it the highest functions of public
journal % hold its mouth till it is permitted
to speak.

AN attempt on the part of the Admins
tration to arbitrarily suppress the Demo-
cratic press of Ohio, in order to promote
the election Of ABRAHAM LINCOLN by forci-
bly, crushing out all opposition, will be re-
garded by the people as a declaration of
war against themselves, and they will be
prepared to meet 1t with that understanding.
ABE LINCOLN has one more war than he
can manage now on his hands, and unless
the gifts of reason and common sense have
entirely deserted him he will not inaugurate'
another against his own subjects, at the
instigation of crew of political Intervals
who would rejoice to see the North desola-
ted and its people destroyed. The people
Of the North-the great masses whose blood
has been lavished to prosecute the war and
whose sweat for generations to come will
be absorbed to pay the debt entailed by it
are In no temper to be trifled with upon
matters of such vital Importance. In this
matter the distinctions Of party are forgot
ten--the sentiment pervades the people,
and the Administration must be blind in

thorized reporter in the field of the Phila-

mounted and entered. Upon announcing
his business he was asked to be seated, and
thereupon presented his letter of introduce
tion from Mr.. Young, managing editor OF
The Press. Gen. Butler read 1t and indorsed
1t, directing that Mr.. Chester be permitted
to pass everywhere within our lines. He
suggested that he should take up his quar-
tiers with Gen. Payne's (colorcd) division,
in front of Petersburg, and gave him some
general and appropriate instructions touch
ing his duties as military correspondent;
whereupon he remounted his horse and re-
tired-not, however, before asking General
Butler to furnish him with a horse, to
which the reply was that the quartermas-

mounting of newspaper correspondents of
the army. Then he went away. =, llf-t8

A SPICY LoCAL.-The following from the
San Francisco Morning Herald takes the
shine off of anything in the "local items "
line we have seen for many day.:
"As a gentleman was passing along Fifth
street, he passed place where some boys
were playing marbles. One of them shoot
ing his marble, cleverly put it under the
gentleman's foot. The gentleman slipped
and stumbled against a lady also passing,
precipitating her along with himself upon
a large hog, who was examining the gutter
geologically for debris. The hog, fright
ened out of his propriety, bolted of, and
ran between the legs Of another gentleman,
who in falling, drew the string of kite
from the hands of boy. The kite of course
fell, and in falling frightened a pair of
horses attached to wagon in an alley. A
man who was building fire IN carpenter
shop, by which they passed, started up. to
see what was the matter, and in so doing
dropped his lighted match among the shaw
ings. A fire was the consequence. The
engines assembled, and, in the hurry conse-
quent upon the alarm, man fell in the
track of one of them, and had his arms
broke, which ended this budget of accidents
for the day."

CURIOUS STORY OF A PHoToGRAPH.-
When the war broke out young man be-
longing to Boston enlisted and carried to
the field with him photograph of his be-
trothed. He was taken prisoner and con-
fined fora long period In the Libby. Prison.
at Richmond. While thereone of the rebel
officers on duty, happening to have seen the
photograph, appropriated it and refusedto
return it to the owner. The officer seemed
infatuated with the likness of the Northern
beauty, and in order to have opportunity
to talk about her, made himself the instru-
ment OF many kindnesses to the captive.
AT last the young soldier was exchanged
and in due time Joined his regiment. During
recent battle he was at the 'front.' and see
ing rebel officer very prominently engag-
ed in directing his command, the Massa-
chusetts soldier levelled his piece and shot
the rebel commander. Our men advanced
at the same moment, and on passing the
spot where the dead rebel lay the soldier
recognized him as the officer who had ap-
propriated his lady-lovc's photograph. The
officers pockets were searched and the
missing picture found. The above is no
romance, but veritable incident among
the many curious ones which crowd the
history OF war.

Terms of Peace.

The Richmond Sentinel is the organ of
jeff. Davis, and that organ devotes portion
of its space to talk about peace. 1t does not
reaudiate and ridicule the Niagara me-
gotiators as the other Richmond papers did;
neither does it indulge in the hifalutin
Ledoer rhetoric attributed to Davis by Mr..
Gilmore. 1t aptly compares Mr.. Lincoln's
letter to acircumstance in Lalla Rookh. In
that poem the yelled prophet horrfies his
followers one day by giving them a glimpse
of his frightful features-just such a glimpse
as Lincoln's letter gives to the people OF his
purposes. We thought we honored a pure
prophet, whose face was veiled from un-
worthy mortals because the lightof divinity
was on it. We thought we were fighting for
the honor of our glorious Stars and Stripes
and to put down a rebellion that would
destroy our country. But we find that this
face was yelled only because 1t was so
marked with crime and sin that the sight
oft would frighten even the most infatuated
of worshippers. Weflnd that we are fight
ing only to carry out the programme of a
corrupt clique offreedom shriekers.
But, this ,Sentinel-this organ of JEFF.
Davis-even makes proposition for peace
negotiations. Here it is:-
@Let peace commissioners be appointed
by either section, and, invested with plena-
ry powers OF negotiation, meet on neutral
territory, and discuss the terms of pe&e.-
Let all subjects be open to free discussion
and negotiation. We of the South consider
independence as the great and first object
of the war, and that separation is essential
to independence; get zoe shall be sioiiling TO
listen TO sohdt you hare 10 say and propose on
the other side. You may offer us something
that will secure our equal rights within the
Union you may propose to give the slave
holding and free States equality of votes in
Congress and in the election of President
and partly to effect this you may throw all
New England into one State, or give her to
England--or, If England won't have her,
let her secede. Now, this would be a tempt
ing bait. We don't say it would satisfy us;
but the subject Is soorthy of consideration"
We cannot say whether the South is ex-
actly in the position OF the chateau qii pdrle,
but this at least looks like an authoritative
assertion that 1t would not consider South
ern independence an absolute essential to
peace--that is to, say, there may be terms
of peace thatit would accept on the basis
Of Union. II this be so, the North and the
South, are not very far apart on the peace
question: si~S% t.lA t5s IVA
