inc objects of the war.

The snpnorters of the Administration
bova constantly declared that the war was
prosecuted solely to maintain the Union
INST for the abolition Of slavery.
notwithstanding these avowals and the
official declarations of President Lincoln
that his paramount object was to save the
Union, we have constantly kept it before
our readers that the purpose Of the Admin.
isrration in prosecuting the var was Cor
the abolition Of slavery, and not for the
restoration Of the Union. And the recent
declaration Of Mr.. Lincoln 10 bis reply to
Confederate commissioners at Niagara
Falls, fully sustains our view of the SUBJ
ject.
Mr. Lincoln gravely informed the rebel
commissioners that ANY proposition which
embraced the restoration of peace aud the
integrity of the Union. aud the abandon,
nlent of slarery," woull be received and
considered By the Executive Government
of the United States.
The declaration that the war is prosecu.
ted solely to maintain the Union can no
longer be made with a show of truth or
reason. Lincoln has directly contradicted
that allegation with his own mouth. He
has now thrown off the mask which he and
his followers have SO long worn, nod beds
ly declures the Oijsct of the war to lie the
abolition Of slavery and that he will not
even listen to proposals for peace uutil that
object is secured.
Is it Cor this that hundreds Of thousands
Of our brave noble and patriotic
white soldiers have filled heroes graves,
aud hundreds of thousands more returned
home manned or with ruined healths to
drag out a miserable existence?
Is it for this that our country is devasta
ted and on: treasury impoverished
IL it for this brother must war against
brother ard father against son, and our
constitution and laws no longer protect the

Is it for this that two million men have

and shapest
And is it for thistle President cow de.
mands five hundred Thousand more men

Such, certainly, is the fact, il the pres

Resolutions Of the.PeOrfa Con.
VentiOn.


On the first page OF to.tay's paper will
be found the resolutions adopted by the
meeting of the Democracy at Peoria, on
the Sd inst.
There bas been much said and publish
ed about the objects and character of the
meeting at Peoria. The Abolitiouists and
Northern disunionists generally stigma
tie it as a meeting of the knights of the
GOLDEN Circle. disloyaIists, COpperheads,
and enemies TO the Union.
Now if we are to judge the character of
the meeting by its resolutions, it was COM
posed of the right material, The resolu-
tiOns breathe the true constitutional doc
trine, and there is nota genuine friend of
the Union as framed by our fathers, who
cannot endorse every one of them.
We would say to those nervous Demo
Gratis who are 80 fearful Of free discussion
and free expression Of opinion, they had
better exercise little fOrbesrauce and
caution or they may be found in the same
sinking craft that threatens to engulf
Abraham Lincoln and his crew.
And to our Abolition friends we would
say they need entertain DO hopes, for all
DemOcrats-war Democrats and peace
DeGocrats-mean to support tho nominees

curing the cdium which the great men of
our Revolution heaped upon him. For
Lincoln is doing just what that despot did
and just what the heroes and patriots Of
l776 called upon tie people to rebel
against him fIr doing. Fcr instance, the
Declaration Of Independence charged
against King George that he had affected
to render The military Independent Of and
superior to the oicR potcer." And Lincoln
hes done this and is doing it constantly
lie recently ordered Gen. Dix to disregard
set at nought and resist the authority of
the Courts in New York, and he has des
clared martial law all over the land. As
has been well said, to resist such tyranny
our fathers fought out the Revolution.
So vital to liberty did they deem this
point, that eight of the States which origi.
nally made up this Union, declared in
their Constitutions thai the military po,c-
err should IN all cases, and at all times, be
held in er1ct sabcrdtnatiOn to the ciUa au.
