LIVES LOST BY THE REBELLION.

LIVES LOST BY THE REBELLION. The
war department computes the number of
deaths in the Union armies since the COM
mencement of the war at 250,O00, and of
the southern soldiers at least 225.000,
making at least 1900 lives that have
been lost, part of the costly price paid
for the defense of the nations life. At
Gettysburg, $4,000 Union soldiers were
killed, wounded or taken prisoners-our
greatest loss during one campaign. Gen.
Grants losses, from the time he crossed
the Rapidan until Lees surrender, were
about 10000 Great as these were, they
were far below those incurredin European
wars, owing to our superior medical and
sanitary arrangements, and the care OF
the government for its troops.

The President has expressed himself
in favor of the proposed amend
ment to the constitution making voters the
basis of representation. Congress is not
likely to adopt any measure that will so
speedily secure suffrage to the freedmen as
this would, and that too in regular and
constitutional way.

BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.
Opeople chosen are We not
Likewise the chosen of the Lord,
To do His will and speak His words
From the loud thunderstorm of war
Not man alone hath called ye forth
But He, the God of all the earth
The torch of vengeance in your hands
He quenches ; unto Him belongs
The solemn recOmpense of wrongs.
Enough of blood the land has seen,
And, not by cell, or galowa-sair,
Shall We the ways of God prepare
Say to the pardon-seeker, Keep
Your manhood bend no suppliant knees,
Nor paI,er with unworthy pleas.
Above your voices sounds the vail
Of starving men We shut in vain
Our eyes to Pillows ghsstly stain.
What words can drown that bitter cry?
What tears wash out that stain Of death
What oath. confirm your broken faith
From you alone the guaranty
Of union, freedom peace, we claim:
We urge no conquerors terms of shame.
Alas no vicors pride is ours
Who bend above our triumIhs won
Like David DER his rebel son.
Be men, no: beggars. Cancel all
By one brave generous action trust
Your better instincts, and be ust
Make all men peers before the law.
Take hands from off the negro throat,
Give bIac.. and white equal vote.
Keep all vour forfeit lives and lands,
But give the common laws redress
70 Labor's utter nakedness.
Revive the old heroic will,
Be in the right as brave end strong
As ye have proved yourselves in wrong.
Defeat shall then he victory,
Your lose the wealth Of full amends.
And hate be love and foe. be friends
Then hurled he the dreadful past,
Its common slain be mOurned, ana let
Its memories soften TO regret
Then .hal the Unions mo,heI-heart.
Her lost and wandering ones recall.
Forgving and restoring all.
And Freedom break her marble trance
Above the Capitolian dome,
Stretch hauds and bid ye welcome home.

The United states senate.

The following seventeen members Of the
United States Senate 60 out on the 4th Of
March, lS67-Democrats being put in italics,
viz: James A. McDougaA, Of California; La
rayette 8. Foster, Of Connecticut; Lyman

Gratz Brown, Of Missouri; Daniel Clark, Of

Ira Harris Of New York; John Sherman, Of
Ohio; James w. Nesmith, Of Oregon; Edgar
Cowan, Of Pennsylvania, Luke p. Poland, Of
Vermont, and Timothy o. Howe, Of WiscOn-
sin. Besides the above expirations there is
oae vacancy to be filled in New Jersey, and
another in Vermont, thus necessitating, in
the whole the election Of nineteen new Sen
ators from the loyal States during the cur
rent year.
The progress thus far made in providing
for these changes is as follows: Mr.. Sherman
has been reelected in Ohio; Cornelius Cole
has been chosen in California to succeed Mr..
McDougall; Gen. o. S. Ferry succeeds Mr..
Foster in Connecticut; james Harlan, in
Iowa, takes the place of Mr.. Kirkwood; and
in New Hampshire, James W. Patterson has
been designated the successor OF Mr.. Clark.
The new incumbents are all Republicans.
In Vermont the contest for the long term
lies between Judge Poland and Hon. j. s.
Morrill, now Of the House. In New York,
thus far, no one has been mentioned in op-
position to Mr.. Harris. In Pennsylvania
there are half dozen prominent candidates,
including Gov. Curtin, Gen. Cameron, For
ncy, Judge Kelley, John Cessna, and John
Hickman. In Indiana, Mr.. Lane declines q
reelection, and Speaker Colfax and George
W. Julian are among those named for the
succession. In Illinois, Mr.. Trumbull Ii
likely to find competitors in Gen. Logan
Gen. oglesby, and 4. b. Washburne. In
Kentucky, Garrett Davis may be run out by
Gov. Bramlette or Mr. Mallory. In Mis-
souri,, Mr.. Browns reelection will be con
tested by Gen. Blair.
