THE CAMPAIGN,

The National Union COMMITTEES has issued
an address to the Republicans and Union mea
of the country, calling upon them to imms-
diately reorgaRize. especially in the Southern
States) for the remaining elections Of 1867,
preparatory to the coming Presidential con
test. The Committee propose thorough can
vass Of the Southern States, by the most eff.
cient speakers Of both races; distribution OF
documents, enforcing the principles, policy,
and aims of the Republican party; and sin
every locality where it is possible meetings
Tor discussion, where. those who are with u
in principle may learn to act with unity and
energy" the address is a timely paper,
breathing the liberal and enlarged views and
spirit of the party who fought out war for
principles, and is, in effect, plea for the
South. Having enfranchised the poor people
OF that portion 3f our country. we must now
sducate them; we must insure to them tree
speech and free press, that shall qualify
them for free thought. '' go
The appeal Nf the committee should be
promptly responded to, and the work already
commenced in the South prosecuted with
vigor. Louisiana, from all accounts is ahead
OF the other States. This is attributed to the
determined and judicious course of General
Sheridan. Virginia is behind the other States
IN organization, but the Union men write that
they have full faith in Gen. Schofleld.,a.
Senator Wilson Is hopeful. and in his letter
recently published, says that the terms pre-
scrlbed by Congress as the basis of recon
struction will be accepted. The Southern
States will resume their places in the Union
on the conditions and under the provisions o.
the law of last session. Mr.. Wilson thinks
that if the voters OF the Southern States are
properly informed As to the real nature of the
issues that have been decided. and OF those
that still demand settlement, large majority
OF them will take ground with the Union Re-
publican party and he urges the importance
OF sending speakers, documents and newspa-
pers among them which will enlighsen them
on these subjects. All accounts agree tina.
now, or never. is the time to work in earnest.

The present number completes this
volume Of the SPIRIT, which has now
been published twenty -four years, and du.
ring that period has been issued regularly
every week, with the exception Of just
three issues. We don't believe there are
very many papers that can boast superior
slains for public patronage.
sFfomthe commencement of the war
to the present writing, material has in
creased in prics nearly every day. The
white paper, which cost before the war
from three 70 Eve cents per pound ranged
in price during the war from nineteen to
iyentyseight cents per pound; and the
lowest cash price itean. be had for no y is
tFentyathree cents. Other material has
increased in the same ratio. From the
shove the public-can form an opinion of
what it costs to publish newspaper. As
an advertising medium, the Spirit pre-
sents advantages possessed by but the
fsEest number of papers, viz: It is the
only paper published in the county, and
We may say within a radius Of thirty
miles; it is the official organ of the coun-
ty; and all matters Of interest concerning
the people Of the county appears in its
columns. sa
during the past year we adopted the
advance pay system for advertising and
subscription, and believe it is the best
for all parties; at any rate our adyertis
ing and subscription lists are in heal
thisr condition than they have been for
many years. Could We purchase materi-
al and pay for it when convenient, We
could afford to advertise and admit the
names of subscribers upon the same terms,
but as it iss We cannot. a m
In the future, as inithe past, the Spirit
will be found in the ranks, keeping step
t0sths music Of the Union, an undivided
country, and battling for Constitutions!

Another Roman Letter from Bisl-
OD Lamy,

The Most Rev. Archbishop has kindly
permitted us to publish an extract from
another letter Of the Right Rev. DR.. La.
my, bearer Of the dispatches of the Oouu.
Gil to His Holiness. 1t is dated Rome
Jan. II.
'MosT Rev. DEAR ARCHBISHOP: | hope
you have already received the letter had
the honor 70 write to you soon after my
arrival here. The Holy Father was re-
joiced and highly pleased with the Coun-
Gil Of Baltimore. and also to hear many
particulars I gave him about the progress
of Our Church in the United States; but
what pleased him most, and gave him
great consolation in the midst of the
troubles with which his paternal heart
was afflicted, was the letter addressed to
him by the Fathers of the Council. He
spoke Of it in the highest terms. His
expression in Spanish was the following:
!" Hermosa carta, hera,osissin,a; en- pocas
sententids han hecho Ia historia de nsivida
Beautiful letter, most beautiful; in a
few sentences they have written the his
tory Of my Hfe."
The Holy Father speaks the Spanish
fuently, and in three audiences | have
had already, he used that language. On
the third instant I had the honor of serv-
ing his Mass, and of assisting him at the
altar, handed him myself the beautiful
copy of the DEGREES so nicely bound, and
he admired it very much "Que cosa tan
bellas hacea in America-What beautiful
things they make in America!' said His
Holiness, looking at the volume, turning
it over and opening it. : <
The late Council of Baltimore has pro-
duced a wonderful effect, not only in
Rome, but also in France and Ireland
The otherss evening his Emineuce, Cardi,
nal Baynabo, said to me: "The Catholic
Church has a grand arena in the United
States Of America; it is very consoling, ;"
he added.
Affairs in Rome are still in statu quo;
they have rather gloomy aspect. x =
Most Rev. Archbishop, your devoted
Brotberin Christ, JOHN b. LAMY,

All Honor to the; Democrats I'm
ns9 Congress. e-

The Democrats in Congress deserve the
highest commendation for their admira-
bic strategy in preventing the passage Of
a bill to subject the South to military gov
ernment until such time as it is in the
power of the President to strangle it with
a pocket veto Never was there more
outrageous wrong attempted to be per2a.
trated upon free people than the wrong
the Republicans in Congress seek to per-
petrate upon the Southern people through
enactments putting the South under mil
itary rule, and we are heartily glad, and
we know all Democrats will rejoice, that
the Democrats have been successful thus
far in defeating the accomplishment Of
that great wrong. Should Congress- pass
such a bill before its adjournment, the
plain duty of the President is to put it
into his pocket, and there suffer it to die.
