Why not call Moses a supreme general 2"
Had President Lincoln higher authority
youchsafed to him by the constitution, or the
liable Rappers, than Moses had from Jeho-
yah J.? Now it is presuming on a large amount
of credullty in his readers. if not impiety in
Mr. Wilson, for him to say that "Moses whip
ped Pharaoh and the Egyptians" 1 appeal
from the biblical lore of Mr.. Wilson to the
record. in Exodus, as follows:
"And it came to pass that al midnight the Lord
mot Mosesl smote all the first born in the land of
Egypt = ssThere was not house where
there not one dead.''
As for Moses being commissioned to "whip
Pharaoh and the Egyptians" it is all pious
CANNON, and the man who could risk such
an assertion must be either culpably ignor-
ant of his bible or else he intended to mislead
his readers. So far from this being true the
bible distinctly states that
s'Moses said unto the people, fear We not, stand
still and see the salvation of the Lord which He
[aot Mosesl will show to you to-day.
The Lord shall fight Tor you and ye shall hold your
peace
These passages show how sadly Mr.. Wilson
was mistaken in his bible precedent" for
"resorting to erery measure to crush the re-
bellion."
In conclusion, if the people of this county
elect ]. NJ. Wilson, Esq county Judge, they
cannot blame him if be violates all their con
stituuonal rights. for they are candIdiy fore
warned by the republication OF this extraor
binary letter in the Union.

The labOrs of the South Carolina conven
ton have been unsparingly condemned by
the abolition newspapers. President John
son speaks thus of the results achieved BIZ the
convention:
'I have to congratulate your convention upon
its harmonious and successful amendments to the
constitution. 1t affords great satisfaction to all
who favor speedy restoration of all the states In
the Union. Let this work 60 and we will soon
be once more united, prosperous and happy
dence to prosperous and harmonious future.''
Evidently the radicals and the President
are at dlscOrd upon some points. 1t is a
happy augury; it is a blossom which in
1865 will become ripe democratic fruit of the
olien flavor.
