'THE DEvoTED BAsD.-It is believed
that there are five or ten Thousand men in

salvation of their country. 1t is proposed
that all whoare Rillingt to make this sac
rifee shall arm themselves with. sword,
two tiye-shooters, andaa carbine each, and
meet on horseback at some place to be de-
signated, convenient for the great work in
hand. Fire and sword must be carried
into the house of those who are visiting
those blessings upon. their neighbors.E
Philadelphia and even New York, is not

More Assaults on the Poor Man,

Lincoln and Stanton have appealed to Con-
gress, to repeal the $500 draft Communication.
They would like to have it believed that their
object is simply to get men to fl up the army
but honest intelligent people will not think
SO. II the great matter is to get men, by
draft, for military service, why not close all
donrs OF escape, against all able bodied men #
proper age Why repeal the $500 clause
and leave the substitute door open Lincoln
and Stanton both know that the $500 Coin
mutation has savel many poor man from
being dragged away from his family, and
that if it is repealed, there will De no chance
of escape for any bat the rich. or the sons of
the rich for substitutes would advance 10
$1,000 or more, far beyond the reach of any
poor man however many frien,ls he may bave.
Ne, no, Messrs. Lincoln and Stanton. If it
is men you want-able- bodied men-then
sag so, honestly, and call for and take rich
ana poor alike. Away with Your unjust dis
elimination. Strike out the substitute pro-
vison,as well as the $500, and put all on the
sa me platform, or strike ont neither,
We trust Congress will consent to no such
proposition and that they will cause the
$500 and substitute provisions, to stand or
fall together, The life of rich man is no
more valuable to himself and family, than is
the life of tie poor man to himself and his
family; and this Lincoln Stanton effort to
discriminate against the poor cannot be too
severely Observation-Disclosures.

Truth from an Unexpected Quarter.

The Lincoln faction, says the n. Y. Hortd,
squrm painfully under the truth-teiiing expo
sures of General Fremont's letter. The Re-
publican organs have for two years been
pouring contempt on the Democrats for their
persistent denunciation of the conduct OF The
administration in tramp ling in the dust all
our constitutional guarantees Of civil and per
sonal liberty in prostltuSing the war to sci
fish, corrupt and personal ends in berrayirg
the national honor. All such denunciation
has been pronounced by these time serving
ofhce-holding patriots TO be treason itself,
"coPperheadIsn." They have extoled the
very blunders of an ImbecIle administration:
they have justified Its arbitrary and Illegal
violations Of inviolable rights as necessary
and Lawful, and, instead of protesting against
the crimes OF our rulers, they have done
nothing but denounce the protests of those
who suffer by their crimes. Sudd enly these
wretched panderers to power discover that
their wholesale libels upon a lberty-lovlng
people have not merely failed to silence the
indignant outcries of their political opponents
but have extorted equal indi gnation frcm the
lips of their political friends II their own
ranks suddenly rise up thousands upon thou
sands who, like the Democrats, will not con
sent to sacr fee to an imbecle and corrupt
administration all that heritage Of freedom
which makes a government worth the devo
ton OF free nen AID who, in the spirit of
freemen, refuse to surrender their liberties to
the custody, or intrust their affairs to the
management Of such faithiess and incompe-
tent men.
The spectacle rs comforting to men who
had Almost despaired oftree institItl ms when
they saw the party in power welding pat
ronage enormous beyond precedent, driving
the people to choose between dsunon and
despotism. But it strikes terror into the
hearts of those who cringe, and fawn, and
iiatter al the footstool of power.

Grant recently started on it, and, according
to Stanton, SAID he would "iignt it out on
this Iue If it to,k I'm all summer; :" but
Lee appears to have slid him off East, into
the swampS, and the public would find him
after the loss (according to the N. Y. Tri5
une) OF some $4,000 killed, wounded and
missing. in the tracks made by Mcclellan
two years ago, and where he could have
gone by water, with the loss of scarcely any
men Thus, If Grant should capture Rich
mond, he will do it, with "shovels and
spades" instruments which were much de-
rided by the Lincoln Abnlitionsts when re-
sorted to by Mcclellan, and not by the Law
Yer plan or line of Lincoln, on which Grant
started, but by the plan and line recon-
mended and attempted by Mcclellan.

About LAWYER 5:eneraIs.

The New York Times champions Mr.. Lin
coin bunglingly. It's editor writes book
showing what brilliant general Honest
Old Abe" has proved to be, and then, doubt
less to relieve his conscience, writes an arti
Gle in his paper ahodt civilian generals, il
which occurs the following terrible criticism
upon the subject of lis book eulogy
" Not one solitary civilian, from the be-
ginning Of the war until now, has shown
himself competent FOR high command. The
folly of trusting military empiracism has
been written out in letters Of blood, with H.
lustration after illustration, during this war.
So that now no observing man IN the coun.
try can possibly ga;nsay il. The truth
ough to have been plain enough at the ou.-
set. that military science demands as syste.
matte and protraci ed study as that of law Or
medicine and that it is just as absurd to
improvse judge from schoolmaeter, OF n
physician from mechanic. The want OF
prote ss;onal tt aiming is just rs sure TO make
military charlatans as TO make legal or med
ical charIataus."
This is all true enough, even though it
was written by the author of the new " Life
Of Lincoln" The following document gives
it particular point:
