10000 men to the army The truth OF the
business is, that, at the time of enlistment,
there were scarcely enough of Rcpub-

vast majority of the soldiers were
Republicans when they returned home, is
undeniable. With no earthly chance for
promotion or prclcrment until
they renowned their Dem
ocracy, with their ears pois-
oned by ISLANDERS and falsehood as well as
by most damaging truths--it is not mat
ter of surprise that Democratic soldiers
abandoned the party to which they be
longed when they enlisted. The actstands,
however, that in Southern Illinois Il large
majority of the men that went into the
army were Democrats, and we believe the
remark would hold good ifarplied to the
whole country. What the men were when
they came out Of the army, is another ques-
