NUMBER 81
Questions for the Future,

When this war began, it was to end in
thirty, sixty, ninety days. When the cam
paign began, the capture Of Richmond and
the annlhilati0n of Lee were to occur in
week. a month, by the 4th Of July at far
theSt IL the former case the ninety DAYS
have been extended to three years, and
to-day the rebellion has more Formidable
proportions than at any period Of its pro-
gress. In the latter case Il week, month,
the 18th of July, have passed, and instead
OF Richmond being ours, our noble army,
lately decmated in its vast but fruitless
struggles, now lies supinely before an out
work of the rebel capital, while Lee. whom
we were to capture, swarms on northern
soil, and envelops with his legions, the
capital of the nation
Everybody knows that Mr. Lincoln has
produced the result, but who. in view of
what Mr.. Lincoln has already done, cares
to charge him with this additional blum
der-this accession to our already immeas-
urable disagree? While it Is, therefore,
useless to adduce further evidence Of the
powerlessness of Mr.. Lincoln to manage
the whirlwind which he has loosened. we
may proftably turn from the past to the
future, AMI ask how long shall these things
be allowed to continue
For three long weary years have the
people given their treasure and their lives
cOnfding in the promises Of the admins
tration; and yet for the same length Of
time they have seen those promises falsi-
fed and their sacrifices wasted-utterly,
completely wasted. as much so as if they
had tossed their gold into the ocean and
had sacrificed their lives by self immola-
ton Each year has been pronounced
confidently the last Of the rebellion, and
yet each year sees defiant rebel hosts en-
yeloping our capital-each year sees the
rebellion stronger and the nation weaker.
Each draft is said to be the last-the one
which will close up the rebellion; and yet
the conidlng people have no so9nei given
their contributions than these arc wasted
oy some monstrous blunder. and a new
call for hundreds of thousands Is issued
1t is not three months since our armies in
the field were large enough to have fought
the world with success for years, if prop
erly managed in a righteous cause; but to-
day there is only fractional part left of
all this gallant host; and tomorrow, when
Mr.. Lincoln ignominiously hemmed in by
exultant enemies, can communicate with
the people, he will demand of them 500,-
600 more
Have we become worse than slaves, that
an uncouth backwoodsman shall thus spend
our treasure and squander the lives of our
people, and as an offset, give Us only dis
aster AID disgrace? The question is now
not what Mr.. Lincoln has done but what
he will do. 1t is the future that concerns
us, and not the past; and upon our decis-
ion rests our lives, our libeaties, our prop.
erty. and the existence of the nation

But, adds the Round Table,
This is not all. We took up this copy
of the Independent expecting to find its
mass of shameless and revolving advertise
ments somewhat abated But the vilest
of the vile advertisements, which we know
secular papers to have refused over and
over again, deile its pages. Here the
young woman can learn how to ward off the
troubles of misconduct, and the young
men how to counteract the effects of diss:
patton. And this almost side by side with
Mr. Beecher's sermons On one page a
poem entitled The Sword of Christ, and
near by the most infamous cards of poison
maker. Is there no wrong here Can
