Some days ago n soldier from Wash
ington county, Pennsylvania, who had
been a prisoner eight months, and who
is at present stationed at Hampton, Va,
conceived tho. idealofI GAfretina out, as
far as he could, the views of some, OF
the Democratic, leaders in, the north.
Accordingly he prepared and sent to
tho New York Day BooE, a sheet that
was once or twice suppressed during
the war for Its disloyalty, tho following
advertisement; TCF TApvY rTE
TO TIrE NORTHERN DENotRAcX.i -

ruling America, should oSail themselves 81

TH4SP1onS: HSIHnin Address George HI spencer,
The responses,to this advertisement
were curious enough. The soldier, in
the course Ofa letter to the Washington
Reporter, tells his experience with some
of his correspondents, as follows:
The first man to Hbiteu was n Mr..
w, of Iowa, who wrote ptftriolic
letter, tnclosing u dollar for a copy of
the Views" His dollar was returned
to him. and / presume he was aston
lshed as we'll az enraged, at rogT views
OF state rights, iSc. We told him that
