A RemarkablslSpe

Mr.. Thaddeus Stevens, OF Pa. the Ad-
has been making a speeeh-we may say
even a remarkable speech. MIR. Stevens
long since ridiculed The idea or restoring
the government OF Washington, and decIar-
ed lha, he did not wish 10 see it re- estab-
lished But he goes even one step further
now, and recognizes the Southern Confeder
acy Seeing the im2ossIbiliiy OF delend-
ing The Coufscaiion Act under the Consii-
tuition, he declares that "it is a proceeding
under the laws of war over which the Con-.
sliiulion has no control whatever" The
Rebels" he said, 'shad risen 10 a separate
government Which ever nation conquer
ed, had right 10 reai The other as con-
quered province" Here, then, is distinct
abandonment, on the part of the Admins
traiion leader in the House, not only of any
pretence OF restoring the Union, but even
of the fundamental doctrines OF a Repubi-
can government. Conquered provinces"
we're, indeed, known under The imperial
Cesars. and are still common in absolute
governments. Poland Is a conquered prov
luce OF Russia. Hungary submits to the
yoke of Austria, because her blood was
lrodden out OF her by The allies of despoi-
ism; but il mas remained for "the party of
ffeedomu to introduce the Muscovite doc-
ir:He here. The men who have boasied so
loudly OF devotion to free institutions-who
have proclaimed the Declaration OF lnde-
pendence as the shibboleth Of their party
creed, now shamelessiy rample it under
their ieet, and openly boast OF reducing
portion of this country TO the condition OF
conquered provinces"
All this would not be so wicked and
abomInable, if it were not done under the
hypoc rilical plea of restoring The Union,"
of preserving ''ihe bes: government on the
face of the eauh.n A few men like MIR.
Stevens, who really drive the ear OF war
aud who are its real and responsible man.

i aWar" Paper Speaks Out !,

The Message Of President Lincoln has
opened the eyes of some OF those known as
"Wsr Democrats,D and they are refusing 10
10 bulge any further in the Lincoln deslruc-
tion train. The New York Leader has al
ways supported The war strongly, though
adhering to the Democratic party. II is an
Influential paper, aud since the Presidents
Message appeared, il speaks as follows of
me Abolition oath, woven into what is
spuriorsly termed the ssamnesiy" procIama.
lion put on al the tail of The Message:
ali is crime. because It openly confesses
thai this s0ar Is an abolition lcIr. and that il
is conducted, MOTTO restore the Union, but TO
destroy slavery We have all along sus-
specied and charged that this was The true
state OF the case% The Aboliiionists have
all aIors denied it. Tie President has
himself denied il in official documents and
speeches To admit il now, after these
deniaIs, and in this most authoritative form,
is 10 strike the Union cause a cruel blow.
For. If abolition be ibe object of the war,
then the srar is unyustgabls and Jeff Daris
has the best possible justification for his rebellion
we hold these facts 10 be self-evident and
incontrovertibIe, and we repeat that three
fifihs of the NOrtkern peopIe-leaving the
Southern people out OF the question-would
refuse 10 accept arg stich oath as that ICrliten

LATE WAR NEWS.

The President has ordered another draft
for five hundred thousand men, 10 be made
on the tenth of March. This is TO include
The three hundred thousand which were TO
have been taken on The fifth of January last.
As the draft in 1869 did not produce as
many men, substitutes and all, as were lost
in the Western Department. alone, during
the time the names were being drawn,
the community can Judge how many This
new call will secure. The quota of Phila-
delphia under This call, will be about four
teen thousand FIVE hundred men.
The news from Chattanooga is i'm portant.
The enemy have Withdrawn their advanced
positions from Rnggold TO Dalton. They
accom- plished their retreat successfully, in
the face OF General GRANT's entire army,
Withdrawing on last Thursday night, and
losing but thlrty-two killed and wounded.
AT the last advices, a small portion of Gen.
Grants force had advanced but short dis
iance beyond Ringgold. An expedition,
about twenty-five hundred strong, was out
on recognossance, and had gone TO Tun-
mel Hill, six miles from Dalton, and FIVE
miles from Ringgold. The enemy, under
General Claiborne, confronted them on the
road to Dalton. An official report Of Forests
recent raid upon Athens and Florence has
been sentio Washington. The Federal loss
was forty. The Confederate General Nor
gan is massing his forces al Decatur, in
Georgia, from which place he can operate
either East or West of Chattanooga
There is, as ye; nothing defnate from
East Tennessee. An order has been issued
at Washington relieving General Foster.
On January 22d, the Confederates and Fed
erals were skirmishing across the Holston
river, but six miles from Knoxville.
There is dispatch from Nashville, about
a defeat of the enemy's cavalry at Fair Gar
dens but it is 30 vague and wandering, that
although signed by Gen. Grant, (who by
the way is at S;. Louis, and who does not
usually write in the heroic style) we can
scarcely give il credence. II says tha, an
infantry division charged tUith The sabre upon
a cavalry division, and captured 1.-TWO rifed
guns" from them.
Infantry don't use sabres, and cavalry
don't use rfied guns.
The Coufederaies in Virginia have with
drawn slightly, in front OF General Meade.
This gives the Federal army possession of
the Cedar Mountain battlefield, though
the enemy still garrison the mountain, the
peak of which is south of the battle ground.
There is also Federal picket line again on
the north bank of The lower Rapidan. A
recent reconnaissance TO Aldie,in the Shen-
andoah valley, discovered nothing. The
guerriIlss are beginning TO infesl the railroad
again. On Friday night they attacked a
wagon park near Alexandria, capturing
several teams.
General Kelly's wagon train, whils, going
from. Harper's Ferry to Petersburg, in Hardy
coun,y, Virginia, was captured by the
enemy on Saturday.
Colonel Fish, The Baltimore Provost Mar
bal, is ont on parole.
