what u Veteran Soldier Says.

The New York Times publishes the
following letter from Major General
John e. Wool, the compatriot of Scott,
Taylor, Harvey and other true and tried
soldiers Of the old army:
:" 1 was more thau delighted with the views
you entertain in regard to the election Of Nc
Gle. ian to tie Presidency o. the United states.
You have said truthiully that mis- election
means the trailing of our mag III the dust before
its enemies, the entire sunseryiency of the
\orh To the South and you might have added
the surrender OF the United states To Jefters IL
Davis and his government Tnat sucn is tne in
iention, if they succeed in the election Of Nc
Clellan, of the leaders of this widespread con-
spiracy of pcace-makers, tuere cannot bea sllau-
ow of DOUBT. 1t extends over the North as well
as the South. Its influence is seen and felt in
every city, town and hamlet throughout the
land, with its Headquarters IN Camtta stimulat-
factions in the Republ can ranks, which appears
to have paralyzed the whole party.
1.-The con spirators have taken advantage of
the silence and apathy of the Republicans, who
lave hitherto professed to be supporte rs of the
war, and have no. fl led to add to their ranks
the weak, the timid and cowardly OF the
Republican party as we'll as of the Democratic
party. Within the last few days, however, the
Republicans have been somewhat reused from
their lethargy by the recent successes OF Major
General Sherman. Nothing, for aught that
can discover, will save the Union and its gov
eminent but the successes of Grant, Sherman,
rarragut and Sheridan.
These successes may rouse the people and
preserve our country put nothing else, from
present appearance, will save it from the dam
ger with which it is threatened. The periis Of
tle Union were never greater than at the pres
ent moment. The conspirators have secret as
sociatlons, whose members are scattered over
the land using eve y means In their power 10
alarm and brighten the Ignorant and tim;d.-
They are also distributed throughout the armies
and navy of the Uniied states, and eXerting all
their powers to induce thOSe who have the priv
ilege of voting to cast their votes for Mcclellan,
who is represented to be popular with the rank
and file. AT a future day may present facts
which will subsi an iateal have said i'll regard
to this dangerous onspiracy and their conven-
ton and their candidate for the Presidency.
Il was not the sword of Caesar that destroyed
he liberty of Rome, but th. demag0gues that
.hronged the forum with souls dea to their
country's honor, and spotted with corruption.

The Courier, Dubuque Herald and
kindred sheets have given publicity to
the infamous lie that every man, when
drafted and accepted, was branded on
the back. The Courier took especial
pains to notify its readers that they
must prepare to be branded, and by the
repetition of this shameless falsehood
TO bring the CONSUMPTION act into disre-
pute. 1t was alleged that the Surgeon
General had issued such instructions to
the Surgeon of the Enrolling Board at
Springfield, Ill. Knowing that all or
ders and circulars issued from the War
Department to boards of enrolment
were uniform, and that an order to
brand recruit or drafted man issued to
the board at Springfield would also be
issued to the board at Davenport, we
the subject, and on Saturday received in
reply "that no such order had been re-
ceived or issued" The lie is based upon
the fact that one Baxter, employed in
the Provost Marshal's Office at Washing
ton, some time ago suggested to the sur
geon at Springfield that all persons ex-
amined for recruits or substitutes, should
be marked with caustic on the back, to
prevent bounty Jumping. So soon as
the Provost Marshal Gen. Fry learned
that Baxter had made the suggestion he
was required to withdraw it, which lie
did. Tha! is all there is to this infa-
nous lie o the Democratic press. Will
they be honest enough to retract? Not
they, for fear of offending their friends,
the devil and JEFF. Davis.

pDr Lord Bacon says that the friend
ships in the world are very few. Ac-

And Still Another Lie Nailed.

II downright lying Will elect McLlet-
Ian, his friends are doing their prettiest
in that line of business. For instance,
the Courier of last Saturday the oath
inst contained the following:
"Gen. Brave Joe Hooker, also, has
come out square for Little Mac Bully
for fighting joe"
Now, see how much truth that para
graph contains. On Thursday evening
(22d inst.) General Hooker visited the
Union League Club in New York, and
was welcomed in speech by it's Presi-
dent, Mr.. Sturgis, who said, among 9TH
err things: Believing this, we cannot
sustain any man who goes upon an i'm
mediate armistice platform with such
men as Mr.. Pendleton of Ohio. We feel
it to be more consistent to do honor to
those Generals who propose to fight it
out on this line, if it takes all summer"
Gen. Hooker, said, in reply, that the
Loyal League were not aware of the
service they had rendered the army
(Will the Cops. observethis expression.)
"They had formed a good reserve, and
for this the army felt strong in 'front.'
The fighting isnow nearly closed. There
will be few spasmodic plunges, but
they are the natural manifestations Of
dying. The government has been slow;
the people have been fast, and have led
the Administration but the latter has
come along, and, on the whole, done
tolerably well. IT Is ABSURD TO Sup
POSE THE SOLDIERS CAN VOTE OTHER
THAN ONE WAY. THEY WILL VOTE AS
THEY HAVE FOUC HT-to put down the
rebellion. We have not only fought the
rebellion, but England. She hes fur
nished the rebels with all their arms and
clothing, and for these she holds a
mortgage on the whole South. 1 don't
think she will undertake to foreclose it.
He had at no time felt any doubt of the
success of the war for the Union. There
had been mistakes and encouragement
in its conduct, yet the Union arms had
made steady progress" (the Chicago
platform says the war is a failure-ED.)
$50 that the close of each year had seen
the area of the rebellion narrowed and
its relative power materially weakened.
He confidently believed that we were
now very near the end-nearer than
most of us believed. But he would
have no overtures made to the Rebel
Chief-at the proper time they would
signify their readiness to give it up
The time to begin negotiating was when
we had finished the fighting. 1t is folly
to talk of it till we have whipped out
our enemies and swept away the cause
of the rebellion. The Constitution must
be interpreted in accordance with the
principles of humanity, nor can we have
q permanent peace till we do so. We
must not make peace in such o way
that another war will break out again
within ten years"
Does that sound like Gunboat McClel-
Ian and his platform? We rather like
that kind of support to Mcclellan. OF
course the Courier will publish this
speech.

A Rebuke to peace Men.

The Burlington Hawkeye contains a
letter from a private in the I'd Iowa
Cavalry, from which we extract the
concluding paragraph:
1T is plain, then, that we must fight It out
time. Why, then, not do it now? We acW do it
sa0U, Vallandigham, Dean and Seymour to the
contrary Notwithstanding. Our regiment has
faced rebel bullets over one hundred times, and
are willing to face them as many more times
rather than accept of peace on any lone condi-
ton" We didn't court this war, we didn't be-
gin it, but, God willing we will end it, and that
too by fighting" "
Notwithstanding this willingness on
the part of our brave soldiers to fight
this rebellion to an honorable peace,
there are persons who call themselves
men who would get down on their bellies
and eat dirt, that they might receive
the approving smiles of their masters
What cowardly souls there are in this
world.
