AN ACF OF FUHLIC DKvoFIoN.

AN ACT or PUBLIC DEVOTION.
Ths Richmond HAig, of the 18Th inst, thus
appropriately notices remarkable act Of an
ssl6shnsss and patriotism in sn officer holding
3 high military position: (" Gen. PEGRERTos
yesasrdsy Tesigned bis commission as ieuisn-
ans-gensrsl IN the provisional army Of the Con.
foderste States, and went into active service in
ths field as hsussnEnt-eolonel Of artillery. This
action on The part of Gsn. PEABERTOE exhib-
its highly laudAble spirit, and goes far toward
sustaining all that bis friends have claimed for
him As man Of patriotism and honor. It's ne
time now to eiticiss the military conduct OF un-
successful generals, who, whatever errors they
may have committed, manifest, as in the casa of
Gen. PEMBERToN, so much unselfshness at
this critical period of the country's history The
msgnsuim3us people Of the Confederscy win
remember, to his credit, his present eOnduct;
and ihOss who have felt bitterly toward him will
be strongly inclined to mitigate their snimOsisy.
We have no doubt that Gen. PEMBERToN will
render valuable and efficient service TO the cause
IN the present emergency"

my maintained q confident tone, aud although
admitting enormous losses on their own side,
ranging in sH as high as fifty thoasaad, they

From the time thati il became evident that
Lincoln had determined TO renominate him
self for the Presidency, aud perpetuate his
senseless, arbitrary. violent and revolution
ary reign, to this day, GOLD, the in.allible
barometer of commercial feeling, has been
steadily going upward in the scale which
marks the depreciation Of Government
mercy. This was the inevitable and legiti-
mate effect Of a positive cause. Even the
possibility Of four years more of this des-
perate and i;mayical Administration effected
the sensitive instrument CT commercial cpin-
ion; and If the possibility Of such an event
effects the market so diSastousy, what viii
the realization of the fact his re-eiecti0n-
effect? Any man. with sufficient knowl-
edge ofmathematics to run corner grocery,
knows that four years more Of such an Ad-
mnnistration rs iiE.oln's viii accomplish
the total ana irIctlIcyabie ruin of the coun-
tly end Government, financially, as we'll as
socially and politically, Yhe absurdity Of
the idea upon which Abolition financier2
are conducting affairs that the entire per
sonal ard real estate property of the couu-
try Is pledged to redeem the public credit
will be realized when it comes to the
point of taking that property. 1t is the
perception ol these facts that sends gold
creeping upwards as steadily and surely as

The Cincinnati Gazette Of this morning
has significant article headed Necessity
Of Economy in the sinews OF War. = 1t is
protest against the Wholesale slaughter OF
our army since the passage of the Rapldau.
Such waste Of life has not been witnessed
in modern times Hitherto this appalling
flow Of precious blood has seemed to de-
light the Republican press, Now, however,
that Grant has lost one-half Of as fine an
army as ever man commanded and when it
is realized that the resources of the country
are not sufficient to replace the multitude
that have fallen, something like remorse is
beginning to manifest itself even in the col
umna of the Cincinnati Cdzttte. We hail
this as token that humanity is about to
assert itself, and prevent our race from per-
manent deceberacy into monsters

WE remarked last week, in speaking Of
Fremont and Lincoln, that they were as like
as two peas. This is true so far as their gen
cral political views are concerned. But be-
tween the men personally there is certainly
a marked difference Fremont is gentle
man in his manners, has seen good society,
and is admitted to bca man Of some acquire
ments and ability. Lincoln, on the other
hand, is an overerown boor, cruel and full of
low cunning Fremont, in his letter Of ac-
ceptancc, takcs manly ground in favor oil
freedom Of speech and of the press, and
condemns tho contemplate and heartloss
tyranny practiscd by Lincoln and his min
ions. We say, therefore, while these men
are alike there is difference. - Starl; Coua-

The Feeling in the Army-.-LIn-

Republican, war paper, thus speaks of tho
feeling in the army liz regard 70 Lincoln

''The non,inationof Mr.. Lincoln ut the
Baltimore Convention creates no surprise or
enthusiasm in the army. Ii has never been
doubted but that, with hundreds of blood
suckers who have been nibbling at the pub
lie crib for the last four years with so much
benefit to their pockets, who were in that
Convention, he would be successful. He
need not have made the colored importations
from the swamps Of South Carolina to ia
sure the result. Ii was totally unnecessary
for him TO bring delegations from every
nook and corner of the seeded States where
the sun has scarcely shown upon true pa
triot or friend Of the Government for four
years past, Nnen he Convention was already
packed by the creatures Of lie creation, at
the expense of the blood OF tens of thousands
of good aud true men, ard hundreds Of
millions OF public treasure.
The army believes that thafc never HIS
been a time since Mr.. Lincoln's Inaugural
ton, that be has not had the means at his
command to crush the rebellion in six
months had those means been properly u.s.
