When Lincoln told the snivelng committee nom

Ape will take especial delight in "keel-hauling
him. He has grudge against Seymour, and will
be most grateful to him for affording him such
ohane for a little revenge. North has by this time
"gone up," Yankee under order of his military
judges

II is amusing to see with what holy horror the
Union and Abolition and the corrupt Lincoln
press affect to regard these frauds of the Mcclellan
ties. Such virtue has been witnessed never before
The Tribune tells the world with triumph, that a
batch of one hundred and ninety fraudulent votes,
since sold to the Mcclellan party, had been " Of

Congress in the Seventh District New York J,

Poor Mcclellan stands, III effect, convicted before
the world and is as much to be pited as that poor
ass which was, by the beasts in council condemned
to death for nibbling few blades of grass in the
parsonage, while the killing of a of lambs, by
the lion, was pronounced by the prosecutor the fox
as no offence at all since lambs very sheepish ant
cravenly animals at best, were occasionally neces

supporters of the Ape tone down and excuse hi
monstrous outrages and magnify and denounce til
shortcomings and peccadilloes of his competitor
who has not the stamina to perpetrate any grea
frauds, and has not the opportunity to do if h
had. Lincoln will take of that.
In short Lincoln is managing his side of the cleo
ton in his most approved style. He will be @ sen
on for another term triumphantly. He is to b
still further tried. He is best His defea
would be the signal for the agtations of convention
and truces at the South that would prodGce divi
sions of an injurious character amongst US, in tn
midst of which that enemy who meditates our ruiz
and abasemen. might gain immense advantages owe
us. Give us Lincoln with his brutaties-those in
human measures and prosecutions which have uni
ted our people, given vigor to our resistance an
must finally establish our independence.
