LOSSES IN 1868, In the campaign
of 1868, which are now brought to
close, all our battles have been dcs-
perately contested, and bloody beyond
comparison with those Of other years
and the losses in officers and men have,
been very great. Probably no less
than hundre and fifty thou sand ren
have been slain or died from wounds
and diseases. This il an awful aggre-
gate of human life to be sacrificed with.
in the space of twelve months. History
does not furnish US in modern times
records of war in which men have been
used up 50 rapidly as in this. Between
two and three years have passed since
this war began, and the north has sent
nearly million and half If men ir:o

more than two-thirds rcmain alive
Battle fields from the Atlantic to the
Mississippi, are bil!owed with their

added those of the south, it makes us

the redress of grievances, suffered at the
hands Of Gov. johnson, military agent
for that State, also candidate for Vice

by Gov. Johuson's proclamations and test
oath by which the people are called ~ on
to perjure themselves, and appealed to the
President, in strong but decorous langu-

them. How were they received! Why
the President, as usual, treated the whole
matter as a "joke." He said it was a
scheme concocted by the "New York pol
