Tie Louisville Journal was one Of
the bitterest opponents to the re-cec-
tion of President Lincoln. Here are
some good words from recent num-
Der OF that paper:
"Wc are now convinced that the Bit
ter partisan elimination of Mr.. bin
coins administration throughout this
struggle was always extravagant anC
has brought no good to tho country
For the sake Of united action, we
would counsel against cmbIttered par
tisan opposition, which must weaken
our friends & strengthen our enemies
Mr.. lincoln will preside oyer the re-
established Union, if the nation will
bravely sustain this conflict. Party
rames are nothing in m hour like this.
Let the flag, as a rallying point, be
planted upon the ruins of party; let
the AIMS ofthe Government be upheld
by united, determined people, and
the nation ere long will achieve an on.

MAR YLAGp,

Extract from the inaugural address
of Hon. Thomas SWAN, Governor
elect of Maryland under the new and
free Constitution Of that State:
The history of the past abundantly
shows that slavery has Conferred no
benefit upon Maryland. 1t has been q
stumbling block in the way of her ad-
vancement. The same is true of all
theagricultural or graingrowing States.
Her people felt the effect of the de-
grading influence, and her growth
has been retarded by exclusion from
her borders of both capital and pop
ulation. Tile State of Maryland at this
time rspresentS.a larger aggregate of
productive eapital-notrithstdnding the
loss Of her whOle slare p0puldtion-as
the Immediate and practical result of
her proclamation Of Emancipation, than
she has eucr done at any former period
of her Hist0ru.

On Thursday Of last week two ladies
from Tennessee came before the Presi-
dent, asking the release Of their hus-
bands, held as prisoners OF war at
Johnsons Island. They were put off
until Friday, when they came again,
and were put off until Saturday. AT
each OF the interviews one of the ladies
urged that her husband was religious
man, and on Saturday, when the Pres
ident ordered the release of the priso-
ners, he said 10 this lady: you say
your husband is religious man; tell
him that l say am not much of
Judge of religion but that, in my opin-
ion, the religion which sets men to re-
bel and fight against their government

HORRIBLE, MOST HoRRIpLE,,

1t is stated that General Sherman's
soldiers killed every dog found in the
line Of their march through Georgia
And no.marvel, for it is in evidence
that hundreds of our officers and men
from Southern prisons have been hun
ted down by blood hounds. They are
kept at Guard stations and picket posts
at the South, and especially at the fer
rics and fords Of the rivers, and are
used to hunt both our men and rebel
dcsertcrS A Savannah letter to the
Cincinnati Gazette relates this rcvol-
ting case Of human and brute ferocity.
The parties who had escaped were
privates Crummit and Harris Of the
9th Illinois Cavalry; Martin Close Sd
Illinois and Patterson, Of the I'd New
York Two Of these soldiers were 18
years old, one 90 and one tnly IT,
They were chased by fftcOn dogs in
charge Of some twenty men.
"Our men, finding the dogs close up
on them, and no chance Of escape pre-
senling itself climbed on the porch of
house and waited till the party came
up Enraged that their thirst for
Yankee blood had not been gratifed,
they made Crummit come down to
them, they knocked him on the head
with musket, formed n ring, put the
dogs in it, and threw him into them.
lie was terribly torn, and soon after
died. Harris and Close were treated
in the same way and badly torn.
Patterson, who was q nero boy,
kneeled down and prayed these human
icnds not to let the dogs tear him but
to no purpose. lie was forced down,
and on undertaking TO regain the porch
was kicked in tie face, all his front
teeth broken out, and he rendered in
sensible, and in that state thrown into
the ring. The dogs had satiated them
selves with blood, and refused to touch
him. This is only single case of
many which could be related.
