THE WEEKLY FREE PRESS
Democracy in New Hampshire.

Looking at the case in party point Of
view, every one who desires the downfall of
the Democratic Party must rejoice when its
leaders place themselves squarely on the rec
ord in opposition to the War and to the
Administration which represents in it's poll
ey the will of the North, and by its war
measures is maintaining at once the exist
ence and honor of the Nation. Thus taxing
the side of the rebels, the party must share
the fate of the rebellion.
The Democrats of New Hampshire held
their State Convention at Concord on the oth,
and raised resolutions, declaring that the
opponents of the Democracy caused the war;
that they owe no allegiance to the Admins
tration beyond its OVID allegiance to the Con-
,,itution: that the acts of the Administra-
ton arc inroads upon the rights of the Peo-
ple, and that greater outrages NAV be at
tempted that the Emancipation Proclama-
ton is unconstitutional and absurd that
the financial policy of the Administration is
outrageous and dangerous; and that they
will maintain their rights at the ballot-boI
by force of arms, if need be.
This is tolerably distinct indication of
their position, on the part of the New Hamp
shire cOpperheads. Now we have only to
see how the loyal men OF New Hampshire
will make mince-meat Of them.

The Case ofthe Chesapeake.

The Admiralty Court of Halifax has settl-
ed the case Of the Chesapeake, both the pre-
siding Judge and the Advocates de-
clsring that the steamer ought 20 I've given
up TO the owners. When the counsel for
the pirates asked the Judge to contemplate
the probability Of demand for her from the
Confederate authorities, HIS Honor replied
that he would not entertain anything of the
kind.
The case. it is to be remembered, was
new one there were plausible arguments on
the rebel side of the question, and public
opinion in Halifax sets strongly in favor of
the rebels. The decision Of Judge Stuart
was just and impartial, and the compliment
for rectitude recently paid to our American
prize courts by the British Attorney general,
may now be returned to this provincial
court. 1t remains to be seen how far the
common law courts and the Provincial Gov
eminent will be controlled by the opinion of
the Court of Admiralty. Evidently if the
fate of the pirates who stole the Chesapeake
rested with Judge STUART, they would forth
with be placed at the disposal of the Ameri-
can Government as prisoners under the eI-
tradition treaty.

therefore
Resolred, That we desire gratefully to ac-
knowledge our abiding sense of the debt we owe
under God to our late brother, to whose faithful
and jealous exertions, when this Lodge was
forming, we believe much Of its later prosperity
may be attributed.
Resolred, That we shall always retain an
afectionate remembrance of his life and labors
among US, and of his integrity. kindness and
gentleness as presiding officer.
Resolred, That while We mourn his departure
from this Il e, we accept reverently and sub
missively the swift summons that called him
away.
Resolred, That while We commend TO the
faithful care Of our God and Father, the widow
and friends of our deceased brother, We desire
to assure them Of our most sincere sympathy
for though the whole fraternity mourns the loss
OF one of her distinguished sons, to Us this death
comes as peculiar and personal sorrow.
Resolred, That this Lodge in token of the
sincerity Of its love for our brother while he
lived, and of its deep sorrow at his death, wear
its proper badge of mourning for thirty days.

transmitted to the widow, and they also be pub
lished in the Burlington papers,

An important circular has been lately ISIS
ued By the Prevost-Marshal General concern
ing the relative number Of men to be raised
in the several states, under the impending
draft 1t contains the opinion Of Mr.. Whit
ing, the Solicitor Of the War DEPARTMENT. on
the bearing of the several acts under which
troops have been furnished for the service Of
the Nation By the act Of 1868, rfor en-
rolling and calling out the forces of the Unit
cd States and for other purposes it was in
tended to equaize the burden Of furnishing
soldiers as far as possible among the loyal
states and among their several districts. The
act Of July 1861. whereby volunteers were
apportioned, had regard only to population,
as shown by the census Of 1860. There was
then no other basis on which a prompt sup
ply of men could be got. lf deficiencies
arose in particular states and districts-ta-
king both men and time into account-those
Deficiencies would stand charged against the
respective States and districts.
After the enrolment, under the act Of
1868, was completed, that alone became the
basis Of future acquisitions In some places,
because the enrolment was incomplete when
the draft was begun, the draft was partial,
to be made complete when the enrolment
was completed. To find therefore the
amount Of service yet due from any State,
the State is made debtor for the full amount
of service required under the two acts, and
is then credited with the full amount ofiser-
vice rendered under the same acts-number
of men and time OF service being taken
into the reckoning sides. Whether the ser
vice is rendered by draft or volunteering,
makes no difference. If the debtor side of
the account is the largest, the difference
shows what the State is yet liable for.

terrible blows the rebellion ever received 1t

force Is above all computation. And your own

of preventing the exercise Of the elective fran
chise by any person who has been engaged in

not satisfactorily established his fidelity to the
National Government and its laws.
Fifth: That we will proceed at once to the or

Laws Of the United States, and TO that end invite
loyal citizens who will take an oath Of allegiance
