Lincoln, an old Wing from the North, was
the man for President and Johnson, an old
Democrat from the South, was the man for
Vice President. When he sat down he was
loudly applauded by the vast audiences.
SPEECH OF Mr.. LAwREECE.
Mr.. Lawrence's speech was confined
mostly to State Matters, and was principal
ly statements in figures, and We could not
get them down with any degree of correct
ness. He said that he had canvassed this
portion of country 10 the interest of the
State ticket, which was headed by our pres
ent Executive He then recommended the
people to support Carney. as he wss great
financial man, and he thought the interests
of the state could not be in better hands.
He now desired to take it back, aud asked
the forgiveness of his friends. He showed
by figures from the books of the Auditor
md Treasurer of State. that our State debt
was S6l5.OOO. which had been mostly crs-
ated under the administration of Thomas
Carney The annual interest on this debt
is $4,000. He said that the people bad
received no corresponding benefit from the
money raised out of the sale of the bonds
which mad created this debt. He exposed
the Peptentiary fraud, and said many 9TH
er things which ought to be in print for the
benefit of the people His speech was ap-
plauded by the people. They believe Law
renee an honest man. and have confidence
in his statements.

ANOTHER CALL.

A call appears in the LeavenWOrth Times
for another State convention on the 18th
list. It lie issued by those who got up the
Senatorial swindle last winter, and who,
because they could not control the last State
convention, concluded to bolt the Rspubli-
can party, and form sort of side shoW
or mutual admiration society, composed al,
together Of shysters whom the people had
repudiated. The members of the new par
~ all expect to be Governor, Senator or
Congressman, or to obtain some fat appoint
meut That's the adjective plaster. The
call emanates from one Atwood, and pro-
fssses to be by authority of the Republican
State Central Committee. The committee
is defuuot, and if il Was not the call has no
legality, because it is issued by minority
OF said committee. We know that four
Of not ave) out of the seven. refuse to
have anything TO do with this trick, and
have recognized the regular committee ap-
pointed last spring. So the call has no more
authority than if issued by any other two
OF three men in Leavenworth and Atchison.
We advise the people in this part of the
country TO have nothing to do with this at
tempt to divide the Republicans Of Kansas,
because q few men cannot control the party.
1t will turn out about Ike the great Union.

THE ULTRA PEACE MEN. WHAT DO
THEY WANT

Win the ultra peace men of the North tell
Che people fairly and squarely who and what
they ares To be simply in favor of peace is
10 be quite undlstinguished, since all the peo-
pie, OF all parties and sections, are for peace.
What kind Of peace, then, is it that the rad-
cal peace men are for? They might reply
that they favor an honorable peace. But
before that can be ineligible, they must say
what they mean by that adjective. What they
may consider honorable may be held by
others, quite ss free and rs compe'en toiudge
Of the matter as themselves, eminently dis
honorable. Hence it Is important that they
Should define their position more distinctly,
OF, in Other words, describe what kind of a
peace they regard rs honorable, and would
accept.
II we may iner their intention from the
declarations Of their recognized leaders-man
like the WOODS, of New York, VALLANDIG-
Ram, Of Ohio, and REED, Of Pennsylysnil-
the conclusion would be that the ultra peace
men are for ending the war even on the basis
OF permanent separation of the States, and
other such conditions as the Rebel leaders may
choose TO dictate, If no better terms can be
ment Of this civil war which any considerable
part of the people of the loyal States win be
likely to consent TO in any extremity; and
hence, no doubt, the views Of the radical
peacemakers are not unequivocally aVowed.

The movement on the north bank Of the
games river Is attended with that success
which Is usually accorded to operations prose-
cuted rapidly, and with vigor and prudence.
We observe, nom the general features OF the
plan, ~ developed, that General GRANT de-
sires the destruction Of Fort Darling, and of
The railroad connecting Richmond with
Petersburg, which Is the termini of Eve other
roads, several ofwhich are now Of great use
b the Rebels. II the design be anything
moro than feint, It win force General LEE TO
choose between two eVils-the loss of the
Rebel capital or the loss Of his main depot
Of supplies at Petersburg.
The siege OF the latter place proceeds as
usual, and although the city Is not thoroughly
Invested by our forces,,y yet 1t Is so beleaguered
That the garrison cannot muster either force
Or courage enough to raise the siege by
driving our troops away. At the same time
GRANT's army Is large enough to besiege one
and advance upon the other, and possibly
assault Il. 1t 10 now believed that the Dutch
Gap canal can be finished in short time,
when our feet and army can cooperate In
tAe reduction Of Fort Darling.
. General WHEELER's raid upon General
SBHRMAN's only line OF communication with
bis supplies and his Government was well de-
viSed, but, unlike some other military depart
meDts formerly, we find troops at all exposed
points, and In sufficient force to repulse the
raiders. So General SHERMAN cannot be
injured seriously by any FIRE in the rear.
General SIXTH has whipped FORREST again.
This Is the way to work. The Rebels were
dislodged and beaten from fortified position
On Hurricane creek, Mississippi, on the 18th
Instant, and lost heavily In the fight. Honest
aud earnest leaders, like A. J. SMITH, always
move 70 victory.
Tho guerillas under General ADAM R.
JOHNSON, who have been operating in Ken
tuclxy, Tennessee, Illinois, and Indiana, 80
extensively Of late, have been defeated and
dispersed at or near MOrganaeld, Kentucky,
By General ALVIN P. HovEY. If General
HovzY has command in Kentucky very long,
n win be just worth mans life to be a
guerilla for single week.
General EARLY has been keeping up such
q bold front in the Shenandoah valley that
our leaders there seem to think he has been
largely reinforced. General SHERIDAN has
retired TO Berryvllle, seven miles northeast of
Winchester, and is concentrating his forces
Cor either an attack or an advance. If Mr.
JERFERsoH DAVIS told the truth a day or
two ago, when he said that GRANT had lost
moro men In this campaign than LEE had in
his army, the Lieutenant-G General ought to
take Richmond at once. DAVIS intlmated
that LEE had but sixty thousand men.
considerable portion Of this army is dead oi
kors de combat, and thirty thousand or more
are with EARLY In the Shenandoah valley
Now we take from this, that either GRANT
must be operating against ten thousand men
with one hundred and twenty-five thousand
or else Mr.. JEFFERSON DAVIS is an afro.
cious liar.
