The Polish GOvernment-An uJneX.
pecled Manifesto.

OF late it has been pretty generally sup
posed that the Polish rebellion was sup
pressed, but the Polish National Govern
ment has just given unexpected proof of
its vitality by issuing a proclamation, de-
claring that the revolution is still in prog
ress, despite the representations of Russia.
The proclamation is prefaced with this pre-
amble:
"Atter nineteen months of desperate
struggle against all the power of Russia,
assisted by her accomplices in the murder
of Poland, and encouraged by the indiffer-
ence of the West, our insurrection is weak
ened and our ranks are thinned.
"Over the toombs of fifty thousand heroes
slain in battle; along roads furrowed by the
wheels of the kibitkas, which have borne
one hundred thousand of our martyrs to
Siberian SHOWS; above the ruins of thou
sands of burnt towns and villages, the in
vader intones hymn of triumph, and re-
doubles his barbarian rage. He intones a
perfidious and lying hymn, the chorus OF
which is applauded by the accomplices OF
Russia, conspiring for our fall, who all re-
peat The struggle is ended, and Poland is
no more.'"

Shrinking of Fortunes.

We were somewhat surprised to find the
following truthful and thoughtful para
graph in The Cleveland Herald, an Aboli-
tion paper. Journals of that party, as a
general thing, find it to their interest to
misrepresent the facts in relation to the in
flation of our currency, and set down all
such homely truths as the following as
"Copperhead lies" Many of their readers
will discover in time how wofully they have
been misled and deceived:
Speaking of the effects of the recent in
flatiOn and the prospective return to gold
values, The Journal Of Commerce says that
"some who counted their gains for the last
two years by hundreds of thousands, have
taken account of stock, and find that if
they sold out to-day at current values, and
realized in coin, they would have less
means than they owned when the war
broke out. The public have all along been
cautioned against the undue cXhilaratiOn
caused by the imitation, and some have
needed the lesson. Others have been led to
wastefulness aud extravaganza by the ap-
parent swelling of their property. A man
who was worth ten thousand dollars, found
his property rated in paper ut $4,000. II
he continued industrious and economical
Nithout regard to this apparent addition to
his wealth, when his assets again shrunk to
ten thousand dollars he would have suffer-
ed no loss. But if, as too many have,
he left his vocation to dream of a compe-
tence, and rated his expenses to the new
measure of his estate, when the contraction
comes he finds a large part of his accumu-
lation gone. In other words, that which
he has spent maintains its bulk, leaving
only what is left to shrink in the new
measure. This is one of the saddest effects
of an imitation"

and all in vain. s'We might as well loot
for rising in a graveyard" is its confess
sion
Thus will it be to the end of the radical
policy. Every proclamation Issued by Lin
coin, every isolated victory achieved by our
armies in the field, had, we were told, put
the finishing touches upon the rebellion
But it still confronts us at every point, and
even now is carryingi its front down through
two reconstructed" States, and placing it
upon the Missouri river, west of Missouri's
capital. Re-elect Lincoln, say The Tribune
and Independent and their followers, and the
rebellion will certainly 90 to pieces-it is
only holding out in the hope that McClel-
Ian will be elected. Let the people again
put faith in the false prcphesies of the ia
natical leaders if they will-if the expert
ence of the past three years and a half is
not sufficient to teach them wisdom with
out further travail.

THE LAST SMoKE.-The Prussian soldiers
now occupying Kiel are excessively addict
ed to smoking, and an anecdote is told OF
two rifemen who, in the recent campaign,
popped at each other from behind two trees
situated short distance apart. Suddenly,
one of them, n German, held out cigar,
with polite bow. The other, understand
ing at once, advanced half way, and was
met by the German. In courteous silence
drew to their respective places; and ten
minutes afterwards, by some fatality, shot
each other through the heart.
