General Logan and the Vice PresI-

The Chicago Tribune (republiean)
says -
This noble officer, the friend of Douglas,
We importUned by several leading demo-
Gratis to allow his name to be used for the
Vice Presidency at Chicago But Gen
eral Logan unqualifedly refused. He told
these gentlemen that he did not train
with that crowd; that he was a war
democrat and no peace sneak that he was
opposed to bowling down and supplicating
forgiveness at the feet of JEFF. Davis; that
he was for honorable, permanent peace,
which could be obtained only by over
throwing armed rebellion and compelling
the insurgents to yield obedience TO the
constitution and laws, and that he would
peYer consent to make peace on any terms
that did not emcrace complete resto-
ration of the Union in all its territorial
integrity.

By reference 70 the Richmond Wing

nee that on their own calculation there re-
mains in the whole South but 1S2, 900 men
between the ages Of 10 and so. These they
style exempts. By an enactment Of their
Congress al residents between these age
are IN their military service. From these
exempts only they can recruit their armies
But these $4,000 are al men who hav.
been detailed for duty, considered up to
this time as virtually important as the
service in the army, and not all CT
them, nor any Jorge portion of them
can be spared from their present avo-
cations as overseers Of plantations, as
workmen in the Confederate arsenals and
as manufacturers OF articles which must be
obtained, hence there Is no basis ofadditior
