A Truth gnnacen.iy Tnls:.

The editor Of the CO'Yier utters in his
Chicago correspondence, published yes
teraay. a truth, which for it's rarity we
| make all due haste in re-publishing. 1t
is short hut none the less observable.
We want every voter to read and reflect
upon it, for it is but the reiteration of
! more than hundred Democrats, who
have addressed the Democratic crowds
in Chicago during the past week:
" Tie great desire OF the masses IN at
tendance here is TO Iefeat .4brah0m Lin
coin."
There it is. No desire to restore the
Union, no desire to crush treason iii the
land, no desire to secure larger liberty,
no desire to stop the effusion of blood,
no desire to welcome the brave defend
ers OF our flag to their homes, flushed
with victory over the enemies of their
country. but desire to dcfc0t -4bS0itom
Lt;ecoin. And why! Because Abra-
ham Lincoln has sworn to support the
Constitution of his country, and to en-
force the laws. Because he is pledged
to use a'l the energies OF civil and mill
tarv mower, TO make rebels respect their
allegi lance to that Constitution and yield
obedience to the laws. Because he is
bound by his solemn oath of Office to see
that treason Is suppressed III the land.
Because he is faithfully and honestly
doing what his conscience tells him
should be done, TO strike down andover-
whelm the most inexcusable set Of rebels
hates treason and loves his country,
therefore, the Democratic masses in
Chicago desire his defeat. Is there any
other reason for this desire? Who are
the masses that assembled in Chicago:
They were politicians; men who in
every county, city, town, village and
hamlet, control the political machinery.
| They were the active men of that party,
! who, when favors are to be distributed,
expect to be remembered on account of
services rendered. The rank and file of
| that party were not there, but the men
| who want mail routes, post-offices, clerk
ships, missions and places in cabinets
were there. Is it any wonder they de-
sire to defeat Abraham Lincoln? Poor
creatures, for four years they have been
cut off from the public teat, they nave
nearly starved, and now they long for
| that teas to once moro return home.
Thousands Of them never knew what it
was to be so long kept from that milk
that produces corpulency and political
happiness. "F
| Yes Mr.. Thayer uttered a truth when
he said, 1.-THE great desire of the masses
in attendance here is to defeat Mr.. Lin
coln." Those masses will undoubtedly
be joined by many Of the disappointed
souls of the Republican party, who
didn't get what they asked for. Shame
and reproach upon the whole pack =
! when the life of the nation is in peril,
and strong, united action is demanded,
to hear men, whose souls cannot rise
above the ceiling of some petty office
denouncing those in power and plotting
their overthrow, for the sole purpose Of
providing for their own hungry car
casses "They desire the defeat o
Abraham Lincoln" What grand in.
centive to action is this, Democrats. L
this whatyou strive for? Nothing high
Ter, nobler, better?

position :ior several years of a Lieuten-

Davis was once his patron friend, why

the South rebelled. Mcclellan was

"unconstitutionally" arrested the iegis-

led his hundred thousands upon harm

Sam. Medary Oh, Mcclellan.

The following from the Crisis, the
chief organ of the Democracy in Ohio,
is not very encouraging to the McCleI-
lanites: .l-F
1t is we'll known that Gen. Mcclellan has not
one spark of pretentions 10 the Presidency ex
cept what he has maize out of this war, under
Mr.. Lincoln. He never held a civil Office III his
life, and WAS unknown TO the public when Gov.
Dennison brought him forward as milllary
man. Yet, In three years. as mere soldier, he
rises to the demands Of the Presidency, TO head
party that is foc peace-a position requiring
statesman OF enlarged views and a states.an's
experience. II we are to plunge into interm;na-
bic wars, each section or portion following its
military leader, as in Mexico or south America
then Mcclellan might be proposed with some
show of consis: ency, but it is, it would be te
utter annihilation of all constitutional politics
and the wiping out of the i'cInocTatic OrganiZa-
tiun. And for what? That a fe,T men who
have got his ear may get Foreign miss onS and
home positions, at the expense OF the peace of
the country and the lives OF their coDstituentS.

myself, | am in favor of a vigorous pros
ecution of the war. | am in favor OF
calling out every ablebodied man in the

headed monster which threatens TO de-
stroy us, and to accomplish this it is ne
cessary to re-elect the present incum-
bent, and undoubtedly he will be con-
tinued in office, upheld by large ma
jority of the loyal North, and by all of
the army, with scarcely an exception
do not see why the people at home
should be dissatisfied with a war policy
while nearly all OF the army 4 refer to
the old troOps) are IN favor of prosecut-
ing the war vigorously. We are the
ones who have undergone the hardships,
and we the ones to be dissatisfied, il
any. Some of the Copperheads of the
North make a terrible Outcrya about hard
times and all this sort of thing, because
they may be deprived of few expen-
sive luXuries. I think their greatest
trouble is the high tariff on whisky, az
without that article Copperheadism
would decay. 1t seems to be necessary
to their existence. And now L ask OF
you to cast your eyes about you and take
a good view of the Copperheads OF your
acquaintance, and what are they? q
poor, miserable, ignorant set OF beings,
unworthy of the name of American ci,-
izens. They deserve to be treated with
contempt by all good Union-loving men
and women, and never-ending shame
should be coupled with their names by
all future generations. Like the tories
OF the Revolution, they will only be re-
membered as traitors and enemies oi
liberty, and everything that is just and
right. They have by their miserable
and cowardiy course acquired an unen-
viable notoriety. They may flourish
now as green bay tree while the gov
ernment has it's hands full and is unable
to attend to them, but the time will
come when they will meet the punish
ment they so richly deserve.

Men Of Iowa, Will you Respond without
"A Draft {?

Gen. Grant, who is by no means a
| vain boaster, but safe man in matters
of opinion, says that with 100000 more
| men he can finish the work entrusted to
his hands. This number of men will
require but a small number from Iowa.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York T.ibanc last Wednesday tel
egraphed the following:
The QUOTA OF IOwA.-GoV. Stone has been
here ANA adjusted accounts between Iowa and
the Provost Marshal Generals Department.
The balance sheet shows the state ahead on
former calls, and with less than four thousand
to raise under the present call.
Up to this hour there has been no no
tice of postponement of the draft, and
it is but fair to presume that the wheel
will turn in the several districts of this
State to-day. A temporary postpone
ment may be ordered to re-arrange the
quotas. From the date of the draft per-
sons will have ten days in which to re-
port themselves at District Headquar-
ters. Within those ten days Iowa can
more than furnish her quota of less than
four Thousand mon.
Men otsiowa, shall they be furnished :
We have been and still are among those
who advocate the reinforcement of our
army by means of draft. But rs the
number is now so small and the emer-
gency so pressing, we now appeal to our
patriotic citizens to sustain Iowa's proud
name and fame. Let us rise above all
minor considerations, and forgetting the
hesitancy and refusal of political oppo-
nents to aid the cause OF Liberty and
Union, and put our shoulders to the
wheel. Let our quota be filled without
a draft. Let those who are not able to
go provide literally for those who are
willing to go. The war-cloud rolls back
bright visions OF peace, based on ma
tional honor, integrity and human
rights, enduring us the everlasting hills,
come up from the Southern skies. Vie

heroic soldiers and friends. Each breeze

S Jefferson Davis declaration to

is but the expression of the anti-repub-
lican theory he has long advocated. In
1859, at Jackson, Mississippi, referring
to the probable success of his political
opponents in 1850, he said: 1.-The sue
cess of such party would indeed pro-
duce an irrepressible conflict TO you
would be presented the question, will
you allow the constitutional Union to
be changed into tic despotisma Of q major
iW?" 1t is singular that the Democrat
ic party has any sympathy with men
who thus repudiate its principles. This
tyranny of the majority, by the way,
has only been mentioned by Southern
leaders, when the majority voted in the
interest of freedom. There was no des-
potism, of course, in the old pro-slavery
maj0rities. -...

g AS against the forlorn Democracy,
Abraham Lincoln has the majority par
ty at his back, and the balance OF power
in his hands. His reelection, therefore,
which might have been defeated by
new Union party organization Of all the
opposition elements, cannot be defeated
by the demoralized Democracy, under
their shent-pershent and regency mana
gers at Chicago. In this view, General
Mcclellan will act wisely in declining
a nomination which, if made and ac-
cepted, can only end in his defeat.'
