FALSE POLITICAL rnornErs.

FALSE POLITICAL PROPHETS.
The recent collapse Of the rebellion in
the evacuation of Richmond, their capi.
tai, and the surrender of Lee and his
army, suggests how wide Of tho mark
were the representations Of the rebels
and their Copperhead friends.
At the opening of the war, in . speech
delivered by JEFF. Davis, We End the fol-
lowing sentiment:
"Your border States will gladly come
into the Southern Confederacy within
sixty days, as We will be your only friends.
England will recognize us, and glorious
future is before US. The grass will grow
in the Northern cities, where the pave
ments have been worn BY the tread of
commerce. We will carry the war where
it is easy to advance, where food for the
sword and torch await the armies in the
densely populated Cities"
This speech, we believe, was made at
Selma, Alabama, which our latest dis
patches report was recently captured and
burned by our cavalry. At oil events,
fire and sword have travelled South, and
the forces of the rebels never entered
upon free soil but once or twice, and then
only to meet speedy and disastrous dis
comfturc.
Bat the Copperheads Of the country. in
grand National Convention assembled, at
Chicago, only last summer, were as wide
of the mark as JEFF. himself. Read the
following resolution in the light of ac-
complished facts, and let every one who
reads forever rcpudiate the infamous par
ty which made it plank of their plat
form.
Here is the resolution in brief:
Resolved, That this Convention does
explicitly declare, as the sense Of the
American people, that after four years
of failure to restore the Union by the
experiment of war, . justice,
humanity, liberty, and the public vel
fare demand that IMMEDIATE EF-
FORTS BE MADE FOR A CESSA-
TION OF HOSTILITIES, DC
Who is shameless enough now openly
to endorse the patriotism or the wisdom
of such a sentiment? And who now de.
sires to bind his fortunes and his reputs-
ton to party which in their National
Convention gave. aid and comfort to trea-
son and openly endorsed the invincibility
Of the rebel army, and proclaimed the
failure Of the arms of our country and
the cause of the Union
Let all in whose breasts there still lin-
gers spark of patriotic pride, desert that
foul party, already demoralised and dis
yraced, and with the rebellion soon to be
ouried so deep that the hand of resurrec-
tion cannot reach it. The pretences Of
he leaders Of that party to patriotism
and their awkward efforts to simulate .
ioy they never felt over the downfall of
4 he rebellion, will not wipe out the black
md shameful record of opposition to the
n war which they have made in times past
md proclaimed to the world in their party
platform.

DsseAsrss Departure fer Charlessen.
Last evening" large meeting vas held
ia the lecture room Of Plymouth Church
for last greeting of Mr.. Beecher before
his departure for Charleston. Religious
exercises we're held. and in the sermon,
Mr.. Beecher referred to the narrative
contained in the three or four closing
chapters Of the Book Of Judges, where
25, 600 out Of q, 900 Of the tribe Of Ben.
jamin were destroyed. But the people
wept and prayed that there should no. be
. tribe lacking in Israel. Not altogether
uilike the feelings there expressed for
that tribe, were our feelings toward the
South. The whole country had been our
watchword; We had fought foc the whole
country, aud We we're responsible for the
whole country. We should Be careful not
to fall into the easy sin Of desire Of ven-
gsance under the color OF desiring ju.-
tice. From the moment the last musket
WAS dropped and the last sword put up,
he would not have one drop of blood
spilled OF any man who has taken part in
tie rebellios, though he would sxpatriats
some of the leaders that thsy might not
work any more mischief. From the
crumbling pulpit in Charleston habor he
shouId say to the South now that the
gtilty and bloody war is passed, now
that the cause Of it is destroyed, there is
nothing between us unless it is on your
part; il you hate rs, We do not hate you;
We are Christian citisens. and our purpose
ID inst and kind and sincere.
An address 70 the pastor was subse-
qnsnly adopted BY the church, in which
they ay:
ave wish especially to appeal to the
Christian men Of the South to hasten on
the reconciliation which We and all Chris.
tians ct the North desire, and to take the
lead in restoring Peace to . country
which can never be divided, feeling that
10 no way can they or We better serve
our common Master than BY promoting
peace and good will among brethren,
while maintaining Justice. good govern
ment and law" The meeting closed BY
singing 'America" and the Doxology.-
