True.

The Chicago Times, in commenting on the
fuss the Abolitionists are making in that
city about the quota assigned them, utters
this truth:
These periodical drafts will occur in quick
succession so long as the war continues.
The Abolition politicians told the people
before the election that there would be no
more drafts, and this was another deception
practiced by them. The drafts, we say, will
continue SO long as the war continues, and
the war will continue until the people de-
mand that it shall be stopped. 1t can be
stopped In thirty days-it could have been
stopped by the parties assembled at Fortress
Monroe ten days ago, on the basis of THE
UNION. 1t is the Abolition politicians who
are in the way OF the stoppage on this basis.
They have determined that it shall not be
stopped save on the basis of their own fa-
natical, ruinous and wicked policies. 1t is
solely in support of these policies that the
country is now called upon for three hum
dred thousand men, of whom Illinois must
furnish thirty-two thousand, and Cook
county five thousand.

NEVER, in our recollection, has the. time
been when popular attachment was so strong
toward any American statesman, as it now
manifests itself toward President Lin
coln.-Bufdlo Express.
Amid the all prevalent and audible susur-
pations of discomfort which mark the pres
ent time, and especially since the recent
enterparlance in Hampton Roads, we need
hot inform our readers that the above par
agraph is not of recent date. They may
therefore repress the astonishment which,
at first blush, the paragraph is so admirably
calculated to produce. Itwas written prior
to the assemblage of the Baltimore COnven-
ton in July last, and our object in repro
ducing it, is simply to exhibit it as a remind
er, or sort of relic, OF a time and state of
things that are played out, and thus to re-
vive, in some degree, the hopes that are
languishing of better days to come. 1t is
encouraging to reflect that such paragraphs
are not written nowadays, and that there
is no demand for them. Drafts, taxes, de-
preciated currency, slaughtered kindred,
desolated homes, and oppression in every
form, are at last beginning to tell upon the
people, and the popular attachment" that
erstmanitested itself toward President Lin
coin, has ceased to manifest itself in that
particular direction. On the other hand
the overwhelming and almost universal
ruin which Lincoln and Lincolnism have
brought upon the country, is beginning tc
be generally understood, and the popular
attachment to which The Express gave echo
a few months ago, is fast degenerating into
popular dread and abhorrence.-Ddtor

"The Poorer CIasses.,,

It is about time the rights and feelings Of
athe poorer classes" were receiving some
consideration at the hands of the party in
power. "The poorer classes" have had to
do the fighting in this war; it is they who
are now filling the quotas. 1t may be said
that they are induced to go into the army
for big bounties. What are $500 Or $1,000
when weighed in the balance against life9
Hundreds perhaps thousands, OF men are
frightened into the army by an apprehen-
sion that they may be drafted. They know
that IL drafted they will receive no bounty;
hence they enter the service for big boun-
ties, to the end that they may make some
provision for their families-a provision
they could not make ifdrafted. The rights
and interests of the "poorer classes" de-
mand that Peace should be restored. For
NEY's Press of last Thursday devoted a
chapter to a faultfnding with our financial
system. 1t asserts:
'sThere is the same amount of duty levied
here upon the delicate kid gloves made in
Paris by Jouvin or Alexandra, for the
dainty hands of our fashionable bellies and
n,
mittens with which the handicraft-man or
artisan endeavors to keep warmth in his
fingers during the freezing winter-time.
There ought to be consideration for the
poorer classes In our nationaFtaXation, but
we do not find it there"
There is greater discrepancy between
the men who wear the delicate kid gloves"
and the men who wear "the coarse, warm,
worsted mittens" than in the matter of tax
alton. A hundred-fold greater is this dis
crepancy in the face of draft. Let there
"be consideration for the poorer classes in''
the matter Of life and health, as well as in
the matter of ''our national taxation" Any
system of taxation on imported articles, let
it be framed ever so carefully and with
seeming impartiality, will operate to the
disadvantage of "the poorer classes" Not
only have ''the poorer classes" had to do
more than their share of the fighting in this
War, but "the poorer classes" will be COM
PEELED to pay more than their proper share
of the expenses of the War. In a great
measure, they are responsible for this con-
dition of things. Thousands of them voted
for LINCOLN in 1860 under the impression
that the assurance of the partisans of LIN
colin that tranquility, high prices for the
laborer, low prices for goods, and land for
the landless and homes for the homeless,
would be realized. Until the "poorer
classes" shall assert their manhood and vote
out Of power the Whole brood of Admins
trationists, they cannot reasonably expect
to escape the unjust exactions that have
been and will continue to be made
of them, from time to time. They
hold in their hands the balance of power; |;
they can make Peace; they can compel the
enactment OF a just system of taxation; but
they can't do it by continuing in power the
present party. By continuing thisparty in
power, the time will come when the balance
of power they can now exercise, will be
transferred to the ''colored man."

The Revolution and Hts Progress

We began this war in order to compel the
Southern States to obey the Constitution,
against which they had risen up in arms.
The President called for military power in
the presence of large army, and it was
given him.
Under the plea of war power and Of mil
itary necessity, he arrested men without re-
gard to the Constitution, and kept them in
prison without trial. 1t was then claimed
for him that he need not obey the Constitu-
ton he had taken an oath to protect it-and
in order to save it he emightdisregard it, and
afterwards he openly declared, that "things
otherwise unconstitutional became lawful,
if think them necessary"
What next? The sacred Constitution
shall not stand, Congress must have power
over slavery. and Congress is put in train
ing to do resolution for submission to the
States asking them to amend the Constitu-
tion. If this shall be done, and "done,
when it is done"-the Southern States will
be entitled to larger representations in Con-
gress-to representative for all the blacks
instead of three-fifths as now.
Bat this will not do, say the champions.
The Southern power must not be increased.
We will amend the Constitution again, and
limit the representation in Congress~and in
voting for President to the number of
lawful male voters.
Anything more? Yes, the cormorant
commerce is screaming from the cliffs
There must be no more free wheat and corn
into Canada. Revoke the Reciprocity
Treaty. Confine all trade to my seaports
and to my ships. Once more amend the
Constitution and give to Congress the pow
er to lay duty on exports. Lay duty on
cotton exported and make it dear to the
foreign spinners and cheap to the home
spinner. Lay duty on the export of
wheat and make it dear to the foreigner and
cheap to mill owners. Anything more !?
Wait and see.-Urbdnd Union.

The State journal Wants the MEM
\ bers Of the Legislature Put Be
Yond the Reach Of Corruption.

1mc 8thtc shOuTmah vshheS sA-S "--
\ bers Of the Legislature Put Be
yond the Reach OF Corruption.
We have all along thought that the menu
bers Of the Ohio Legislature-the Democrat
ic portion OF it we know are-are beyond the
reach of corrupting influences. The ONO
State Journal, however, throws upon that
honorable body shadow of suspicion. In
its issue of Saturday, it refers to bill "be-
ing favorably considered in the House OF
Representatives, which provides for salary
to members of the Legislature, in lieu OF a
per diem compensation )" "for it lis important,
In popular Government, that its officials
be not only uncorrupted, but above the Sus-
picion of taiat." The presumption is that
the editor of The State Journal has been in
intimate association with the Administra-
ton members of the Ohio Legislature; and,
therefore, may know something about their
nature and feelings and weakness. This
knowledge may justify him in making the
insinuation that three dollars day Is not
sufficient to keep them 'above the suspicion
of taint" of corruption.
We have the testimony of leading Ad-
ministration journals thatthe Federal Gov
ernment has been plundered most shame
fully by loud-mouthed patriots, and this
plundering has not resulted from insufii-
cheney of compensation. 1t is the result OF
the greed of gain, and of an ambition to
figure prodigously. Now, we hold that the
member of the Ohio Legislature who would
hold dalliance with corruption, because he
received only three dollars a day, would no
more be removed from the seductive influ-
ences of corruption if he were given "a fixed
salary" 1t would, it seems to our plain
apprehension, be infinitely better 10 put
the increase of the pay of the members of
the Ohio Legislature on the ground that
their present compensation is inadequate
that it is not sufficient to pay their expenses
here in Columbus, and that there is no reason
why men should be required to serve in the
capacity of legislators at pecuniary loss
to themselves, instead of putting it on the
ground of interposing aprotection between
them'and the pernicious influences of cor
ruption.

AT meeting OF citizens convened at the
City Hall. on Saturday evening, in pursu-
ance of call through the city papers, n.
Gibbons, Esq, was appointed Chairman, and
Phil. d. Fisher, Secretary.
The Chairman, on taking the chair, stated
that the object of the meeting was to call
upon the City Council TO take some steps to
aid the Wards in filling their quotas.
On motion of Mr.. Gilmore, a committee
of one from each Ward was appointed to
prepare business for the meeting.
The following gentlemen composed the
committee: S. y Rickly, G. G. Collins,
Geo. Mccormick, w. +. Lehman, Fred.
Beck, Henry Kneidle, and ii. +. Booth.
During the absence of the committee, b.
| Gilmore, Esq, addressed the meeting in a
spirited and patriotic speech, in which he
defined the duty of the people, and depict
ed the evils resulting to the city from a
draft.
The committee, through their chairman,
w. f. Lehman, reported the following reso-
luti0ns:
Resolred, That we are looking forward
with great, grave, and we believe we'll
founded apprehension to the operation of
the impending draft, which, unless our city
be relieved therefrom by recruiting, must
in many cases, violently and unnecessarily
sever the most sacred ties, injuriously af-
feet the most important interests, and de-
stroy, in great measure, the business and
prosperity of Columbus.
Resolued, That we hold it to be eminently
Just and eXpedient, that our City Council
pass the pending bounty ordinance, and that
we therefore respectfully and earnestly urge
upon them the duty of thus relieving the
people, whose representatives they are, and
whose interests, even in the Wards no longer
subject to draft, they would indirectly pro-
mote by the adoption of said ordinance.
Resolued, That the refusal of our council
men to pass such law, must inevitably re-
press the laudable efforts now making in the
several Wards, which embrace the bulk of
our Industrial population, and will force the
draft upon large majority of the Wards by
rendering it impossible to recruit their sew
eral quotas.
ReSOlued, That for these reasons we advise
the Wards not yet out of the draft, to con-
tinue their subscriptions to prevent the sub
lection of any part of this city to its ope-
ration, and that we will all use our utmost
diligence to propagate the above views and
to impress them upon our city government.
On motion of Mr.. Charlton, the above reso-
lutons were unanimously adopted.
Mr.. Lehman then addressed the meeting
in the German language, in which he
elected the warmest applause.
Mr.. Brown moved that the proceedings
| be published in the city papers.
On motion of Mr.. Booth, committee of
two from each Ward was appointed to wait
upon the Legislature and urge the imme-
diate passage of the bill now before the
| House.
