the "patriarcnhl' institution he so
loved. And this act Of South Caro-
lima is read at the breakfast table
with hardly comment. SO surely
has war settled the great question OF
the existence of slavery, that the an
nouncement of its abolition in South
Carolina hardly affords table talk for
short meal.
The question Of the basis of rep
Presentation will be troublesome one.
1t is two edged sword. So fsi as
State representation is concerned it
matters not, in the way OF political
influence, whether the basis he the
white population or the entire pop
ulation. But in the Federal repre-
sentation that question becomes a
horse OF another color, for it would
make a very great difference, as
to Southern influence in Congress,
whether the basis be merely the white
population, or the white and black
1t would be difference Of some ten
or dozen members OF Congress-
But as South Carolina never admitted
that sauce for goose WAS sauce tor
gander, it probably will insist two
rules; one in State, and other in Fed

after matter. All we care to say
now, is to advise the reader to

slavery" and then see if he can be

REMEMBER

That the friends Of the Union cause
have always sustained and supported
the soldiers in the field, and the lead
ers Of the pretended Democracy
have ridiculed and derided the sol
diers OF the Union, calling then
"Lincoln's hlrelings," "robbers,'
"plunderers," and other epithets un
fit for repetition.
REMEMBER
That Copperheads are responsible,
for thousands of lives of the hes
men of our country, and millions o
treasure.
REMEMBER
That they are trying to get into pow
er, in order to pave the way to tn
reputation Of the nation2l debt.
REMEMBER
That to do so, would be the rt.ininl
of the entire country-that the ia
tional debt is held mostly by the
laboring classes, at whose interests
they wickedly aim; and
REMEMBER
That the Copperhead party favor
paying the rebel debt, or repudiatipg
our own.
REMEMBER
That the Copperhead party favor
admitting rebels into Congress, thus
giving them an equal voice with the
loyslists Of the North
REMEMBER
Thai the Copperheads are pledged
to send Vsllandigham to the United
States Senate, in case they succeed
in carrying the election.
REMEMBER
That the party that has brought thu

is the same in which the writer has re.
sided during the sessions of the House
of Commons and that it is in every way
suited to the wants offs gentleman. The
writer urges Gen. Lee to accept the
proffer, and promises him q hearty wei

is nov in Gen. Lees hands. 1t is more
than probable that were Gen. Lee at

the General Is well known to be to pass
the remainder of his life in the genial
quiet of agricultural affairs, whollvse

impression now is Throughout not only
this section, but l believe the entire

him this boon, and finally place him
upon his trial for treason against the

the United States. Indeed, his indict-
ment and arrest are still momentarily
