How Caused.

Should the military situation remain
essentially unchanged for three or four
weeks, we venture the prediction that it
will be made fully apparent within that
time that the sudden decline in gold which
is new unsettIing business throughout the
country, and threatening widespread dis
aster through the depression of prices, has
been caused by the sales of gold by the
government. These sales have been made,
not for the purpose of assisting our national
finances, but through the operation Of an
unnatural and illegitimate pressure to in
duce belief that the national credit is re-
viying under the victories obtained by our
armies. These have afforded just reasons
for increased confidence in government
paper, but they have not been of char
acter SO decisive as TO warrant the sudden
bound which our currency has taken

The Detroit Free Press has the follow

1t may not be uninteresting as subject
on which to reflect that the administration
has officially informed Governor Seymour,
of New York, that the surplus volunteers
of that State will be credited on the next
draft after that for September. Every

three years, and a circular from the Sccre-

The Prospect.

From all parts of the District we have
the most Aattering accounts for the demo-
Gratis. The days of Colfax as member of
Congress are numbered we think, unless
he removes to Dahomey. Turpie will be
elected by handsome majority, if his
friends do their duty; but let NJ democrat
or conservative voter remain away from
the polls, because our opponents will use
every means, whether fair or foul, to sue
coed, and the absence of few voters may
lose us the election. Let democrats see to
it that the election is conducted fairly;
that no illegal votes are polled by our I'M
scrupulous adversaries, and that every
democratic voter in the county is at the
polls. Look out for spurious tickets, and
see that our friends are provided with
those that are genuine.

We have here two Bureaux for prin-

Documents-the one the Congressional
Folding Booms, frankcd; the other, the
Treasury Dcpartment-where the Public
Documents are:

1t is the first time I'D the history of
any country, that its so-called money"
became clectioneering Public Documents.
II is the first time, great Paper mill was
ever kept in a Capital, to make Paper--

Clerks from the Executive Departments
are daily sent to the Capitol and there
made to labor for many hours, directing
and, by authority ranking electioncering
documents in favor of Mr. Lincoln's re-
election, and abusive of Gen. Mcclellan,
which are sent by thousands to the Army
Of the Potomac and every where over the

printed out of the Extra Contingent Fund

Mr.. Lincoln holds the purse and sword
of the Republic; the liberty and lives of
the people are placed at his disposal. He
has recklessly squandercd the treasure,
inhumauly welded the sword, destroyed
the liberties of the people, and he is giving
millions Of our lives to secure the freedom
of the niggers. He asks to be the custO-
dian of these for four years more. Shall
we grant it to him?
Those who are in favor Of devastating
war for the abolition of slavery, say yes.
All who lose sight of the property and
liberties of white men in their blind zeal for
the niger, say yes.
The recipients of official favors from
Lincoln, say yes.
The army contractors and Government
imps, say yes.
The men who expect to obtain place
and plumber through Lincoln, say yes.
Those who are actuated by honest mo-
tives, say no.
Those in favor of the old Union and the
old Constitution, say no.
Those who want liberty, prosperity and
peace. say no.
Those who would not have their sub
stance totally consumed by endless and
hopeless taxation, say no.
Ali who would not sacrifice l:fe, liberty
and country for ill-gotten greenbacks OF
sooty niggers, say no.
And most emphatic NO comes from
the broken family ties, the deserted tenc
ments, the ruined hopes of millions of or,
phans, the million of widows he has made
the four millions of families over whom
he is shaking heartless conscriptlon.
What has he done for his country!
Ruined it
He has filed the land with fear and
mourning,
He has caused million of brave mer
to be sacrificed for nothing.
He has scattered smutty jokes and flesh
less bones all over the land
He has strengthened instead of weak
ening secession.
He has digged an impcnetrable gul
between the North and the South, an,

an abolition paradise.
He has disgraced his own party, an;
won the contempt of every honest man.
Let those who can support him do so
1t is their privilege.
Let them hang their wedges and axe
on poles as once they did.
Let their shouts and huzzas rise abov
the wailings and lamentations of a mourn
ing people.
Let them fling their flag to the breez

MIR. Lincoln and MiCegcnatiOn.

Mr. Lincoln is the exponent Of these
principles His policy Of Emancipation
is Miscegenation, and he acts out his doc
trincs. He receives negroes on terms Of
equality at the White House. He recon-
: ended the United States Government to
receive Niger ambassadors, and be assoc.
ciatcs with negroes, for proof of which
read Frederic Douglass account of his
visit to the White House:

The War 10 Continue Many Years

General Sherman, In his letter attempt
ing to excuse the depopulation Of Atlanta,
states that the place is TO be military
depot for many years to come"-A ew
York News.
This shows that the General contem-
plates the continuance Of the war indeh-
nitely. Those who affect to believe that
the south is about conquered will please
make note of Sh0rman's letter. As We
have called out two millions of men in the
last three years, our readers can judge how
many millions Of conscripts will be needed
under the Lincoln programme, to carry it
on for "many wears to come"
The Plymouth weekly Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1860-1869, 1864-10-06

In 1856 John w. Forney, who then
supported Mr.. Buchanan for President:
said in public speech:
What is there in our happy country to
make men afraid of the light Of day and of
honest inquiry? Have We conscript law
that tears the husbandnlan from his plow,
the father from his family, the son from
his widowed mother, to go forth and act
sladiators for the amuse ment Of a few am
bilious kings? Have we laws for the rich
and stripes for the poor? Is our President
an Attilla or Caligula. Is cur Senate 4
Council of Ten? Is our House Of Repre-
sentatiyes body of tyrants armed with
power to ravish and destroy? Secret or
CARNATIONS against such wrongs would be
justiGabie and right, for We are taught the
great lesson that resistance to tyr@nes *
obedience ~ God.
The spirit Of prophecy was n these IN
quiries! Little did the speaker imagine
that in eight year. no one could deny his
most material statements. Still less did
he suppose that he would be one of the
most obsequious adherents of such tyran-
ny.

Removal Of Montgomery Blair.

Mr.. Lincoln in obedience to the bargain
made with Fremont and Chase, gives
Postmaster General Blair notice to quit
Blair gave mortal offence to the Misccge-
nationists by intimating, in speech last
year, up in New Hampshire, that he could
not 90 the anal gamation doctrines. He
was for shipping the negroes out ofthe
country. Since then, he has been trying
to make amends for the false step he took,
but Garrison, Phillips and Greedy, backed
by the Abolition sentiment, are as remorse-
less as fends, and Blair has paid the pen
atty of his rashness. Ex-Governor Dcnni-
son, of Ohio, bitter Abolitionist, is APP
pointed in his place. The coolest part OF
the performance is, perhaps, Old Abe's let
ter. in which he tells Blair that during the
entire administration of The Post Office
Department, he has never heard Of "a
single complaint" against him. This is
what might be called "a whooper." Lin
coin is evidently adding downright false
hood to his other vices.-[N. Y. Day

Mr. Lincoln has managed during the
three years he has been in Office, to swell the
public debt of the United States TO about
seven hundred million dollars more than
the whole expenses of the Government

An Infamous Proceeding.

We understand that for some time past
the leading abolitionists here have been
eadeavoring to get the military authorities
to send body Of soldiers to this place IN
der the false prctense that democrats were
almost in a state Of revolt, and that a
Union man was rot safe in our streets
The das:ardly lying ScoundrelS know bet
ter, aud have known it all the time. But
because they may have some revenge to
wreak, or malice to CRAFTY, they would
rnalign their neighbors, blast their fair
names, bring about collision between
the two political parties, destroy the peace
Of society. sad then gloat over the ruin
they had wrought with fendish delight.
Among the most active Of those who
have heen engaged in this devilish wick
eincss, arc Icnatius Mattingly, IL. b.
pershing, and the republican candidate
for Sheriff, VIM. Darlington. We are
glad 20 know that he Provost Marshal
Of this District, X. G.. Shryock, Esq,
(who, by the wav IS gentleman, and
entitled to the respect of men of all par
ties for his manifest fairness in the draft
ing operation) had too much good sense
TO comply with the wishes of these men,
although We have reason to believe that
repeated attempts have been made to ac-
compiish their designs We have been
informed that Nh Darlington made such
representations to DIR. Bedford at LaPorte,
one dav last week as TO geta promise from
the Dr. that troops should be sent here to
keep down the democrats. We know but
little o. this mau Dr. Bedford, but we ven
ture the assertion that he is very weak
or else 4 very wicked man; otherwise he
would have made no such promise on the
representations Of Burlington. We are
also Of the opinion that the DIR. has nc
power to fulfill his promise. Col Shry.

citizens of this county are less orderly and

The White House China-a Rich
Disclosure.

The New York World in an arti Gle up
on the appropriations for the White House.
says:
Well, it so happened, in the early part
Of Mr.. Lincoln administration, that bill
was presented at Washington for payment,
by Messrs f. Y. Haughwout Il Co., of
this city, for china dinner service, fur
nishcd by order of Mrs. Lincoln, for the
executive mansion. The amount of the
bill as rendered was some twenty-thrsc
hundred dollars. There was delay in pay
mcnt. Messrs. Haughwout Il Co., sent
one of their principal men to the White
House to push the bill through and and
get the money. There were still difficult
ties in the way, the nature of which for a
long time could not be ascertained.
At last it was found that some clerk
who had to pass upon the bill, delayed it
because of the very unheard of price
charged for an American service of china.
AT length dealer from Philadsl phia was
sent to examine the china and estimate it's
value, and the appraiser returned eight
hundred dollars as its full value, in, cad
OF twenty-three hundred. The cas- It
last, came again before the President, ana
the representative of Messrs. Haughwout
& Co. was called and confronted with the
Philadelphia valuation. He promptly an
swered in substance:
"Why, Mr.. President, my firm never
pretended that tie china was really worth
eight hundred dollars. We had reason to
suppose you knew that The difference be-
tween tie price of the china and the amount
OF the bill IS for articles ordered for your
private family use, but inyoiced as china
for the White House"
Honest" A be was cornered and caught
Like another very unfortunate man, dis
hosest in another scandalous transaction in
which he was caught he had mot word
to say" Mr.. Lincoln a. last paid the diff
ference out of his own pocket, and Messrs.
HaughwOut Il Co. got their money
