nse~Ihe Democratic Press, of Fon Du Lao.
Wisconsin, has a fearless and evidently
well considered article on peace, which
concludes with the following words:
Z" AS we said, we are for peace son anv
terms that recognize tho great principle
of civil liberty, which is now in deadly
peril-peace upon ANY terms that shall
recognize the right of sclEgovernmeut, the
sovereignty of the States, and the liberty
OF the citizen. Such peace is a. sny
time within our reach and by accepting
it we shall be obliged 10 yield no right OF
our own, except the sef-assumed right to
govern Others who do not choose to be
governed by us. In short we are for
peace under almost any circumstances, as
infinitely better than the present condi-
tion OF things, and as the only possible
step remaining TO be taken to preserve our
liberties, and save ourselves from a tyran-
ny more uncomfortable than even that Of a

them to the recruiting office, were alone
entitled to this fee-that no recruiting
officer dare take any part Of it-being
paid by the government for their services,

MORE ASSAULTS ON THE PooR MAS.-I.in-
coin and Stanton have appealed 10 Con-
gress, to repeal the $500 draft commuta-
ton. They would like 10 have it beliey-
ed that their objects is simply to get men
to ill up the army but honest, intelligent
people will not think so. If the great
matter is to get men, by draft, for militia
ryservice, why not close all doors of escape,
against ak able bodied men of proper age /?
Why repeal the $500 clause, and leave the
substitute door open Lincoln and Stau-
ton both knew that the $500 commuta-
ton has saved many poor man from be-
ing dragged away from his family, and if
II is repealed, there will be no chance of
escape for any but the rich, or the sons of
the Tich, for substitutes would advance
$1,000 or more, far beyond the reach of a.
ny poor man however many friends he
may have. No, no, Messrs. Lincoln and
Stanton, if it is men you want-able- bod
led men-then say so, honestly, and call
for and take rich and poor alike. Away
with your unjust discrimination, Strike
out the substitute provision, rs we'll as the
$500, and put all on the same platform,
or strike out neither
Wetrust Congress will except to no
such proposition and they will cause the
$500, and substitute provisions, to stand
or fall together. The life of rich man is
no more valuable to himself and family,
than is the life of the poor man to him
