scrush a little ''ninety days rebellion. The
New York World, heretofore very complai

his actions, breaks down at this last call,

&The Jgorid does very wrong to murmur IL
I the end is not yet, the means are Just and
no account should be taken Of the cost. 1t
is too late in the day to begin croaklng.
Every sensible man knows that the enor-
nous levy of men is not intended to 'crush
the rebellion merely.
The Presidential election is coming on,
and there may be some considerable crush

diers can easily he controlled. Lincoln is
playing his game with a high hand. lie

life and death with him AM his party. If
they fall in the next campaign, they are dc
rerlnined not to fail in the next canvas. The

Yes, on any terms-which General Lee,
standing in Faneuel Hall, may choose to
dictate TO the base born wretches who have
sought to ensave us. The game is veryt

guard and a baboon. Take your choice, U
