The Good Time Coming.

The present condition of the Northern govern
mont Is suspicious for us whose most reliable hope
Is 10 the bankruptcy Of that people, the disorgan-
ization Of their society, and the weakening Of their
power On every hand we SOC multiplied evidences
Of disintcgration and anarchy-or social tumult
and national and individual ruin. Disaster is
thickoning fust and heavy about their standards,
and their financial system is hopeossy PROSTATE,
while a thousand millions Of national currency Is
turning to ashes and dross in the hands Of the mil
lions who have toiod for and arc holding itas their
all. Hostility to the war is "festoring 10 revolt
and threatens to break out into open and undisgus-
cd resistance to the government Exlod traitors
return unasked and boldly hurl defiance into the
teeth Of tho authorities, Tho working clusses, OPP
pressed by the depreciation Of the currency and
their meagre wages, are on the verge of degtiution
and bcggary, and daily lind their condition rem
dorcd more hopeless by tho continued decline of
the only representative Of money now within their
reach. To add to their Affections, the Northern
people are compelled to witness the agonzng sp &C.

insane and hopeless effort to cnslayo people who
have proved both their determination and ability
to DO entirely irce,
Under those circumstances Il il not strange that
gL.l M -a,,,to skowia ". IN an ava,t.a
and explosive condition, and look With hostility
upon the leaders who have brought them to this
dirclul and unhappy condition. And amid all Of
this present and prospective ruin and distress, there
is no ray of light to break the general gloom
Nothing but the most decisive military successes
could afford even temporary relief, and they are
impossible Both Grant and Sherman have shat
tered and crippled their armies against our I'M
yielding and heroic columns, until they arc no lon-
ger able tn advance, and they now stand confused
and demoralized in the presence of adyersares
they can Mother mtimidate or destroy. Their We
tcrans of three years Of warfare are melting away
under the icrocious and reckless strategy Of their
Generals, and their places cannot be supplied
Any endorsements which may be raised will ne
ccssarily be raw and inexperienced, unable to offer
any successful resistance to our battc-seasoned and
hardy Confoderates.
The Northern people see aud know these facts
and hence their great depression and Despair
Every defeat of the Yankee armies now swells the
number of the advocates of peace and increases
the opposition to the war. Every check shakes
the faith of thousands who have heretofore been
confident Of final triumph and if God will CON
tinuo, as he has done, to smile upon our arms and
grant us victories, we may hope to sso an uprising
in the North in the next three months which will
compel the government to stop hostties and sue
for peace.

Republican Rule and Ruin.

writer in the Indianapolis Sentinel ums up
some of the results Of Republican rule for the past
three years The whole people of the whole coun-
try are seeing and feeling these results. They
press upon all alike-high taxes and high prices
have to be paid by all; the ruin and disaster affect
-ali an9 BY and by all will wonder at the nfamy
ana uelustoh that plsagSsd ther,.
First: We have LOST, by death and permdn6mI
disability, more than million Of men from VIC
lence and disease, in this war. Over two millions
have enlisted altogether. There are not much over
half q million in the field now. Where are
the balance;
Second: We have created debt of over three
thousand millions Of dollars. The official report o.
the Secretary of the Treasury does not show over
half the actual debt; it does not take INTO account
the floating debt created by quartermasters and
other officers, for which receipts, certificates and
vouchers are outstanding.
Third By the Abolition and COnhscation Acts,
every veStige Of Union feeling in the South has
been blOtted out, as Dunmors's policy united the
Colonies
Fourth The nations wealth is about twelve
Thousand millions of dollars. Three thousand mil
lions of that has been destroyed and wasted. So
we are that much poorer It's place is supplied by
irredeemabe paper
Fifth; The whole country is one vast pest-house
of sickness and disease, consequent upon congrogl-
eating men in large bodies, and then scattering
them throughout the land
Sixth: In every direction we may turn, we hear
the voice Of mourning and see the weeds of af1ic-
ton Well might the wise man say: "When the
righteous are in authority, the people rejoice but
when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn"
Seventh; Generalization is spreading, like lep-
rous sore, through all the ramifcatsnG Of society.
Look at the police reports; there IS no longer much
regard for human life Look around you and see
the dissolution of the framework of society" But
the other day two Republican papers were discuss
ing the question whether at the headquarters Of
Abolition officials, there were fifteen thousand or
only ten thousand lewd women. Rascality End

Fremont, are regarded and rewarded as special yr-

~ We are informed that there arc many ladies
through the country, who would willingly manu-
faeture Blackberry vino and cordial for Hospital
use, if the government would supply them with the
necessary quantity of sugar with which to do it,
The matter is worthy of the immediate attention Of
the proper authorities. The berries are now plenty
but will not last long. A little energy displayed
at this time in distributing sugar would probably
result in supplying our hospitals with suaicienoy
Of these much needed articles.
