peace is thoroughly to defeat the war party at

The Radicals and the War.


Considering that the radicals claim to have
been the "war- party" OF the North, it is rather
remarkable that they should be profoundly in
the dark as to the history of the war. They
celebrated on Thursday night the anniversary
OF the battle of Antietam as great national
victory. But we have always understood from
the Tribune that General Mcclellan, who GER
tainly commanded the army which triumphed
at Antietam, was "Rebel," and from the
Times that he was incapable of victory.
Clearly, therefore, Aptietam either was no
victory at all, or it was a "Rebel'' victory, or
dreadful alternative--the radicals are a crew
of noodles
At this same meeting, too, General Sickles,
colonel of the regular army, who diSgraces
his uniform daily by taking money for parti-
can speeches while drawing his pay as an
officer of the United States, was hailed by the
audience as the ''hero of Gettysburg 1t
has been commonly supposed that the battle
OF Gettysburg was fought by General Meade,
and that it was won in spite of the monstrous
blunders committed by this same General"
Siokles. Now that General Meade has done
his best to earn the favor of the radicals by
shutting up negroes in sweating boxes to
make them bear false witness against Southern
white men, it is rather hard upon him that a
stumping stipendiary of the "Loyal Leaguers"
should get from them the credit of his military
achievements

Rebel Leaders and the Republican Press.

From the ~. Y. Times.
The Boston Post, in its desire to vindicate
Wade Hampton and the Southern extremists,
suppresses one or two slightly important facts.
1t says:-
"Three years ago the radical papers were
speaking in admiration of Wade III ampton's
frank and m. y course IN advising the people
OF South Carolina, white and black, TO begin
and profit by the costly lessons of the war; and
10 place tn m selv,s In harmonious relations
with the Union without delay. Now the same
papers are falling Violently upon him as an
'unsubdued Rebel who would revive war in
The South Yet they do not show that he has
changed at all in his sentiments for the Union.
IL is radlcallsm that has made the mischief by
It's growing usurpations for which 10 has over
ara over again been condemned, and just as
often supported by It's own leading Journals
HOW lob g ago was 1T that these journals were
pfoclalmlng In the very rOundeSt terms that
the men OF lhe Soutn who openly fought us in
The Held, were the ones to become The firmest
iflends In a state of peace? Yet brave men
ike Wade HAMPTON are abused by them for
presumtng TO be present in a National Demo-
cratic Convention, and to address the citizens
OF New YORK IN faVor of the common Union
There can be no doubt, we presume that
when the war ended the Southern leaders
were ready to accede to any terms which the
national Government might have dictated
They were impoverished, dispirited, and alive
to the futility of prolonging the struggle
against the authority of the Union. They
realized their position as conquered Rebsls and
the right of the Government to exact oondi.
tiOns preliminary to restoration to the Union.
This general fact has been often stated, and,
SO lar as we know, has never been specifically

Patriotism, Democratic and Radical.

From the ~. Y. World.
The Tribune, which not only in "0ctober,
1861, " but for months afterw ards, maintained
the right of the South to secede from the
Union as not less sacred than the right of the
American colonists in l776 to throw off the
yoke of the usurping British Parliament, now
abuses Horatio Seymour for declaring in Ooto-
Der, 1861, that the Southern people were enti-
tied to that protection for their slave property
(which the Government guaranteed to them
by its terms" 1t is perfectly natural, we
suppose, that the terms of solemn constitu-
tional compact should be REGARDED as of little
account by journal which openly derided
during the impeachment the notion that
Senators ought to be bound by their oaths.
Says the Iribune:-
''There We're large Shareholders who said. IF
our negroes and leave us our country! |!
HoratiO Seymour felt differently"
Large slaveholders,' of course had
right to give up their property for their
country; but it is rather in the vein of Arte-
mas Ward proposing to shed the last drop of
the blood of his wife's last relation for his
country's sake, to assert that Horatio Sey-
mour ought to have been willing to sacrifice
other peoples slaves. The Democratic notion
of patriotism is that man should respect
other peoples rights and his own obligations.
The radical notion is that man should
make handsome sacrifices of other peoples
property, and interpret contracts for himself
exclusively.
