Our Editorial Batten—Closing
Appeal.

WASHINGTDN, OCT. 30TH, 186 4.
In my last hurried epistle 1 had time
, :ly to narrate the advent of the Con-
icut Commissioners in the Armies of
. Potomac and James and the sublime
ll spectacle of the soldiers of the re-
ic voting in the field, and under the
_. ' a of that starry flag for the defence of
which they have left home,comforts,fricnds
and family, and are ready to yield up life
itSelf. I referred also, incidentally, to
one of the voting inspectors, selected from
among our political opponents, for the
express purpose of seeing that this highest
act and privilege'of citizenship was in no
wise tampered with or abused. This gen-
tleman was one of our most worthy citi-
zens of Norwalk—public spirited, of high-
estsocial and business position and integ-
rity—and I have no donbt’loves his couno
try andmeans to'act patriotically. In_
fine he was just the person, of all others
in Norwalk, whom I should have named
forthis duty, simply because I chance to
know him so well. Yet I doubt not there
are hundreds and perhaps thousands in
our good old state, as pure and patriotic
as he. who yet are expecting to give the
country they love, one of the severest
stabs it is possible for a loyal citizen to do
in the November election l The state—
ment may sound harsh and startle the un'
interesting. . I only regret that all such
democrats could not have enjoyed. the
same _ personal experience in the army
which our Norwalk friend did. I know
how strong are the influences of early
education. It is hard for the leopard to
change his spots or the Ethiopian his skin
-—-yet I know that my friend left the army
with his McClellan democracy (if that is
the term for it,) very much modifiedfif not
fully converted to the nobler channels of
I do
know that he saw and heard enough to
satisfy him that the dejeot of Lincoln and
the success of McClellan would rejoice the
hearts of the rebels, and I mean to cause
him no embarrassment by this plain an—
nouncement. The poor creatures he saw
and heard hour after hour at the provost
marshalls’, who had escaped from the ter—
rors and thraldom of rebel rule, the two
shivering escapes who came in naked as
they were born, having swam the James
under fire of the rebel pickets, all concur-
ring in the one general statement that
misery, destitution, and tyranny were the
order of things in the Confedercy, and
that nothing would so encourage and,
stimulate them in their bloody work as
the success at the Presidential electiou,of
the Peace or McClellan Party of the
North l Whether our friend has the
nerve to break loose from the trammels of
his party organization, I know not ; that
in his inmost soul be regrets the attitude
of his party, its record before the country
and its committal of aid and sympathy to
the rebels—I have not the shadow of a
doubt. Now why is it that good men
and true men, who love their country.
cannot rise to the moral heroism of
breaking all partisan restraints at n. time
like the present ? No man can doubt,
that had the democratic party in its entire
organization adopted the patriotic course
of the prominent men before named, our
dire and cruel war would have been closed
months ago—thousands of widows and

have been spared their loved ones and the
mountain of debt and load of taxation
far in diminution of its present burden—
the Union been restored, and the peace
and liberty and happiness of the people
established for all coming time. Oh, it is
sad, that when treason fills the air, north
as well as south, when our noble Chief
Magistrate is doing all in mortal power
to save our foundering ship, that good men
should join with the vile and mutinous
and to multiply the leaks and embarrass
these straining at the pumps and helm.
To thinking men, must not that be a

ball cause which so unqualifiedly challen-

ges the admiration of these murderous
conspirators ; that seeks to stuff-ballot—
boxes—to violate the sanctity of dead
patriots' graves,and make them vote dead,

.what they so abhored living, as to prefer

death to surrender; that invites to our
borders organized mobs of traitors to vote
down the loyal citizen—that relics all its
hope of success upon the rant and slaugh-
ter of our brave brothers in the field;-
fighting for our homes and our common
nationality. Is it nothing to good men
and true, that all the most vile of'our fall-
en race, the most ignorant, and the most
besotted, are the swell-mob which give
numerical power and strength to your
partizan clans—bursting forth at times in
outbreaks of riot, or arson and murder—
as insolent of your party control as it is
defiant of all laws human or divine l—
Think ye of these things my honest demo-
cratic fellow citizen.

’ And—you. loyal defender and friend of
the Union and the noble pilot who for
four long weary years of buffering and
war, has guided the ship of state—years
of such corroding care and consuming aux
iety, as no man of this nation, was ever
called to endure before—are you doing
all you can to strengthen his hands and
his hope of saving the nation’s o’erstrain—
ed bark ? Are you as thoughtful of him
who holds the helm and as vigilant as
you can be, in watching the breakers and
warding the danger? If you are then
from now till the close of Tuesday night,
will you be a watchman and u senti-
nel, devoting every energy for the salvation
of the ship, of yourself, and all the no-
ble mw- Tuesday, Nov. 8th,
a day bigger with the fate of the na-
tion than any that has ever preceded it
—Citizeu ! Patriot l Christian l let not
that day’s sun go down on your head
with the duty unfulfilled of "not having
done all and everything in ybur power
for the salvation and redemption to peace
and liberty, of this our once happy land

done, God will in His infinite wisdom

The Last Meeting.

The closing Union Meeting of the cam-
paign, is to be held at Lockwood’s Hall, this
(Monday) evening.

Rev. Alfred N. Gilbert, (the gentleman
who made the elegant address on the occa-

rans,) and Gen. 0. S. Ferry, are to be the
speakers.

Nice Discrimination.

A Poster upon one of neighbor James’
venerable clms, enjoius as follows : '
“ Vote for
McClellan
The Nation’s Mom l"

.‘.>.
How THE SOLDIERS VOTE—The Conn. sol-
diers vote to uphold the flag they are fight-
ing for. The 18th Regiment C. V., gave
Lincoln over 400 votes to McClellan less than
adozen. The 10th Regiment C. V., voted
almost unanimously for Lincoln. The other
Regiments cast more than two—thirds of their
votes for Lincoln and the union. The 17th,
which we are ashamed to say has the rep-
utation of containing more copperheads than
any other Conn. Regiment, cast about three-
fourths of their votes for the union cause.
God bless our soldiers, “ who have fought
and bled for freedom’s cause, and when the
storm of war is gone, may they enjoy the
peace their valor won.”

STAMFORD.—The Union men of Stamford
held a splendid meeting at Seclcy‘s Hall on
Thursday evening last. The large Hall.—
largerthau either of our Norwaik Halls,—
was literally packed with people. The seats
were not only all filled but ladies and
gentlemen occupied all the standing room in
the aisles, ante rooms, doc. The neighboring
towns, including Norwalk, were well rcp-
re'sented. Col. Stewart L. Woodford and,
Gen. Ferry were the speakers. The glee
club and Brass Band added much to the en-
tertainment of the audience. Stamford will
redeem herself at this election and roll up
a rousing majority for Lincoln and Johnson
and the union.

W Mr Belmont dare not take the bets
offered him through the columns of the N.
Y. Times; he has backed squarely down.
Odds of three to one were offered him
against the election of Seymour and McClel-

Belmont has no faith in the scccess of his
candidates.

W Gen. Doubleday’s military commis-
sion has found Ferry and Donahue, the New
York agents at Baltimore, guilty of fraud in
soldiers' votes, and has sentenced them to
imprisonment for life, and the sentence has
been approved by the President. It is to be
regretted that the men who are back of Fer-
ry and Donahue cannot be reached and
punished.

Beware of Spurious Tickets.
The New Haven Gourwr says that the cop-

perheads are circulating a Ticket which is

intended to cheat Union voters. It is head-
ed “ Union Ticket,” and is as follows:

UNION TICKET.
EOR raESIDENTIAL ELECTORS.

CHARLES F. POND,
GREEN nNDRICK,
ALFRED GOODRICH,
EDWIN STEARNS,

ASHER BROWN,

JAMES H. HOYT.
The American flag is printed at the top of
the Ticket. “Democratic Ticket” is the label
they usually put upon their ballots. Why is
it left off from this one ? They call this a
“ UNION TICKET" merely to deceive Un-
ion men.“ Look out for this as for any other
tricks they may try next Tuesday. The);
have another Ticket headed “ Democratic’
which is designed for the regular copper-
heads. The other one was got up to impose
upon Union men. Remember that the gen.

Presidential Electors, of . ~

JOHN T. WAIT,
JOHN P. ELTON,

NORWALK HOTEL, Nov. 3d 1864.

10 the Editors of the Nm'walk Gazette :

Some weeks ago I heard a report endorsed
by the NewYork Daily News, World and
Herald, that the hero of Atlanta, Gen. Sher-
man, was in favor of Gen. McClellan, Chica-
go Platform, Vallandigham and all, perhaps
J efi‘ Davis included.

I took the responsibility , of . contradicting
it on the spot, and immediately, (Oct. 20)
wrote to Senator Sherman of Ohio, and
have just received the annexed reply, which
I desire to be published in such way as your
discretion may suggest. ' ‘

Gen. Sheridan’s record, as to those who
would cease to repel treason, lawlessness,
downright falsehood, perjury, and all the
evils that can arise from anarchy, is too well
known to be refuted. He answers by his
cavalry, that neither southern traitors, nor
northern sympathizers. can call him from
the path of justice, honor, fidelity to his oath
or private or public duty. E. R. B.

MANSFIELD, Ohio, Oct. 26th ’64.

Dear Sir:

I find your letter of the 20th, on my return
from Iowa to day. The silly report to which
you refer needed no contradiction with any
one familiar with Gen.Sherman.I mentioned
a similar report to him and have now his let-
ter before me, dated Oct. 11th,1864, in which
he so s: “I got 1your letter about my being
for cClellan— never_ said so, or thought
so, or gave any one the right to think so.”
He further says : “I am not a voter. Even
if I was north I could not vote. I am not a
citizen of any State, unless. it be Louisiana,
and that has no vote.” ‘And he says, if an-
thtlirized to choose he would prefer Mr. Lin-
en 11.

Gen. McClellan has no doubt many per-
sonal friends in the army, but his unfortu-
nate connexion with the traitors we have in
the North would destroy him, even with
those who believe him patriotic.

Very Truly Yours,
JOHN SHERMAN.

[gr Don’t pair off. You have nothing to
gain by it, and every chance of being cheat-

Have nothing to do with any man who pro-

for any reason or inducement whatever.

Messrs. Rockwell, Hurlburt do Dudley, the

receive the highest encomiums of the press
and people everywhere, we‘arc glad to state.
will give a free exhibition in this town on
the street, near the Post Office on the after-
noons of Friday and Saturday, Nov. ’11th
and 12th ; also at Stamford on Monday and
Tuesday, Nov. 14th and 16th, on each of the
above days at one o’clock p. m. precisely, dri‘
ving a’pair of high mettled Stallions without
reins or hit, with beads and neck let entirely
loose, stopping, turning, backing, in fact
making every conceivable evolution, in as
perfect a manner as can be made with bit
and reins in the hands of the most skillful
driver. This is the first and only pair of horses
ever broke in the world to give exhibitions
in this way. At the same time Prof. Rock-
well will give a free Lecture on the subject
of Horsemanship, immediately after which
the horse Tiger will be turned loose on the
street and exhibited free of charge, as a trick
horse. Owners of horses will do well to be
present at this pleasing exhibition, bear Prof.
Rockwell's propositions and judge for them-
selves of their practicability. Immediately
after which they will form a school for in -
structions, giving each member of the class
a plain, practictl and useful mtthod of hand-
ling horses. They also give lessons on the
breaking of Steers—well worthy the attention
of every farmer; of its nsefuln ess you may
readily judge, either by seeing the free exhi-
bition, or examining the numerous certifi-
cates, some of which you will see on small
bills. *

For the Gazette.
. “ Clerical Loyalty."

“If your sympathies are with the South,go
there ”—was the advice of Rev. Dr. Prime
to the Rev. Mr. Houge, of the Brick Church
in New York. The advice, and the prompt
compliance of the young Virginian, was both
wise and proper. Have we not a somewhat
similar case near at hand? For weeks past I
have listened to the venerable gentlemen who
supplies the pulpit of the first Congregational
church in this town; and with a single ex-
ception, I hays heard no petition that would
not have been appropriate, and perfectly ac-
ceptable to a congregation in Richmond.

In apology for this delinquency, we are
furnished in your last issue (from a highly
respectable source), with a history of Dr.
Plumer’s early antecedents. This recital,
in my view, was uncalled for. No one has
questioned the Dr’s. humanity, or benevo—
lence, or christian character; and the insinu-
ation that a prejudice against him, in conse-
quence of his former residence at the south,
exists in this community, is unjust, and un-
worthy your correspondent. Who, I ask, in
the clerical profession, is held in higher esti-
mation' by the wise and good of the free
states, than Rev. Dr. Breckenridge, of Ken-
tucky ?' Is not the Union candidate for the
Vice-Presidency, a life-long reSident of Ten-
nessee; and all the more enthusiastically
supported, because he hails from south of Ma-
son’s d: Diwon‘s line .’ Dr. Plumer needs
no certificate from his friends; no teatimdn'y
to a faithful ministry thirty years ago; no re-
publication of a card issued (for reasons best
known to himself,) some two and half years
since, to define his present position.

It is only necdtul that he prays, as all loyal
clergymcn do pray—once at least 'on the
Sabbath, publicly give thanks to God for the
victories that have crowned our armies and
navy, and cntreat, that he would grant to
them continued success, until this rebellion,
more causeless and wicked than any that
history records, is utterly crushed; and he
will satisfy his hearers. If fighting in defence
of our Government, against those who seek
to destroy it, is a righteous cause, then is that
cause entitled to the prayers of all who be-
lieve in the efficacy of prayer; but this is no
time for the utterance of “ words of an uncer.
tain sound.” ‘

The call upon a worthy colored woman,
although highly commendable, and illustra-
tive of the Rev. Doctor’s benevolence, does
notfully meet the demand of patriotism.

ms The following calm and dignified sug-
gestions from the New York Tribune, are as
timely as itlis just and important;
Our Next ChiefJustlce.
A very ' grave responsibilil y has

through the vacation by death, for the
second time during the present century,» of
the office of Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States. That this
responsibility will be nobly met, must he
the prayer of every lover of his, country.
Old John Adams, on the very eve of
his retirement from ofiice, designated
John Marshall of Virginia for this impor
tant post-one of many wise and patriotic
acts for which adequate credit- has nc'ver
been given to Washington’s immediate
successor. The civilized world has learn-
ed to honor Marshall as one of the ablest
and soundest of those great, pure jurists
who are fromtime to time- vouchsnfell to

bless mankind. After George Washington,
we doubt that any mun has done so much. .

to deserve the gratitude and reverence
of the American people as J ohu Marshall.

. Gen. Jackson was required to designate

Marshall’s successor, and his choice fell

. on Roger B. Tansy—not so great,
not so wise as Marshall, but still
an able, learned, upright judge,

whose one signal aberalion from the line
of duty his surviving country will now
hasten to forget. Save in that instance,
we doubt not that he endeavored to tread
rigidly in the footsteps of his illustrious
predecessor. . -
President Lincoln is very likely to be
personally estimated by the next genera-
tion according to his choice of a Chief
J notice. If he gives us a great, pure, true,
illustrious jurist—one who comprehends
the relations of Law to Liberty, reveren-
cing them both—rho will be signall y exalted
thereby in the judgment of the next age ;
while, should he appoint some one who
seeks the post, but is not required by it—
,should he employ his great Opportunity to
the paltry end of securing a friend, satisfy-
ing a tumbler, or paying a political or per-
sonal chm—he will sudden millions and
indelibly tarnish his fpmp. Notoriously,
the bench of the Supreme Court is'not so
strong as it was forty years ago ; emphat-
icnlly, it needs to be re enforced and ele—
vated in the good opinion of the Nation.
We trust the President will take ample
time, avoid all committals, rcpel syco-
' manta, chalet importuulties, resolved that
f choice of a Chief Justice shall be the
crowning grace of a career of exalted and
beneficent public service. No man can
possibly have any claim to so lofty a trust
that is pot wholly founded-in pro-eminent

CAMP NEAR MIDDLETOWN, VA,
Oct. 22d, 1804.

DEAR GAZETTE z—PrODubly'by this time
you may think that. I haw forgotten you;
but no, I have not. Ere this you have heard
of our great victory of last Wednesday. The
fight commence/l about daylight on the ex-
treme left held by the 8th Corps; the 8th
were broken, and the 2d Brigade of the lat
Div. were immediately drawn in line and
marched to the left for the purpose of check-
ing the enemy, but it was no use, they Were
down upon us in superior numbers, and the
fighting 2d brigade were forced to give way.
In giving way we suffered severely, as the
enemy were close upon us, so close that 91
of the 12th C. V. were taken prisoners, some
25 were killed and 60 wounded. We fought
the enemy for 3 miles, when we checked them
and drove back a great deal faster than they
drove us in the morning. The casualities in
Co. E, were. Sergeant Clark H. Osborne,
wounded and prisoner; Serg. Wm. O. Hoyt,
prisoner; Corpl. John Tappan, prisoner;
Corp. John A. Geddcs, prisoner; Priv. Wm.

CAMP NEAR CEDAR CREEK, VA.,
Oct. 25th, 1864.

Since being in this Valley, We have been
successful in three battles: of the two first
you have heard the particulars; of the last
I will give as good a description as I can.
On the morning of the 19th of this month, we
were attacked onlthc left of our line directly
in front of the 8th Corps; the 8th being sur-
prised, could not hold their position and had
to give away in disorder. As soon as the
firing commenced, the 2d brigade of the lat
division, 19th A. C. were called into line and
marched off to the left for the purpose of
checking the enemy. We formed in a piece
of woods to the left of thepike on a hill; we
“had not been in line but a short time when
the enemy came with a deafening yell, but
only to receive a volley from the 2d brigade.
They soon flanked us and We were forced to
give way, but not until we had lost heavily.
In retreating from the hill across a ravine,
we met an enfilading fire, which caused a
great many of the boys to seek shelter in a

WExtract of a letter received by a gentle-
man in this town from an officer in the 12th
Conn. Vols, dated Martinsburg, Va., Oct. 20‘

“A great injusticeis done to the Officers in
command of our troops, by statements made
by the Copperhead portion of the communi-
ty of Connecticut, that the soldiers dare not
vote for McClellan, for fear of being punish-
ed, directly or indirectly. How that sounds
in my car! Is it not wrong to think, much
more to say before an audience, that such a
state of things exists? ,

“Now I want it understood that the man
who says that the soldier dares not vote for
Little Mac for fear of punishment, does the
soldier a great injustice and at the same time
is very ignorant, or is a her! Not one ofii‘
cer of the 12th is. brute enough. to treat
his men in that manner, on the contrary they
look upon it to be right for every man to vote
as he pleases,and that right is held sacred by
the ofiicers of the not disgraced but gallant
old 12th Conn. No soldier in this regiment
but what voted as he thought best.

“I have served three years in the army and
I cannot after such service go against my
country by voting for a Platform that Val-
landigham calls good. ' The Devil trie d to
bribe our Saviour but did not succeed, so
Messrs. Vallandigham Seymour do 00., on
the one hand and Mac on the other,
will not succeed. Mr. Mac cannot get on
our flank so easy ;as one ofmy men said, and
an old di'a’mocrat, (God bless him for a good
soldier.) “Mac is trying to play a double
game, to get honest Democrats and Copper-
heads on his side, by shying around the Chi-
cago Platform, he cannot Come it,” and this
he said without fear of punishment. What !
punish a man for doing what the Constitu-
tion says he may do ’ No, Mr. Copperhead.

it is a malicious falsehood and no honest sol-
dier chr told you so.

“ Wenhad a hard fight on the 19th of this
month, and 28 of our . brave boys laylow,
and think you that we' are going to lick the
hand of our enemies and say to him, we are
wrong; and ask him What we can do to make
good his losses ? No I—we will stick to him
and give him another Winchester, and fix
it up by giving him another Cedar Creek
and Fisher‘s Hill, to the tune of Yankee Doo-
dle up the Shenandoah.”

56‘ Well does Judge Holt—himself a
Kentuckian, and a Democrat, till “ De-
mocracy” as a partydesignation, came to
mean only Copperhead sympathy with
rebellious treason against the Nation’s
life—say in closing his report :—

“ But, although the treason of the or-
der has been thoroughly exposed, and
although its capacity for fatal mischief
has, by means of the arrest of its leaders,
the seizure of its arms, and the other
vigorous means which have been pursued,
been seriously impaired, it is still busied
with its secret plottiugs against the Gov-
crnment, and with its perfidious designs
in aid of the Southern rebellion. It is
reported to have recently issued new signs
and passwords, and its members assert
that foul means will be used to prevent
the success of the administration at the
coming election, and threaten an exten—
ded revolt in the event of the re—election
of President Lincoln. In the presence
of the rebellion and this secret order—
which is but its echo and faithful ally—
we cannot but be amazed at the utter and
wide-Spread profiigacy, personal and
political, which these movements against
the Government disclose. l‘he guilty
men engaged in them, after casting aside
their allegiance, seem to have trodden
under foot every sentiment of honor and
every restraint of law, human and divine.
J udea produced but one Judas Iscariot,
and Rome, from the sinks of her demor—
alization, produced but one Catalina, and
yet, as events prove, there has risen to—
gether in our land an entire brood of
such traitors, all animated by the same
parricidal spirit, and all struggling with
the same relentless malignity for the dis-
meniberment of our Union. Of this cx-
traordinary phenome non—not paralelled,
it is believed, in the world’s history—
there can be but one explanation, and
all these blackened and fetid streams of
crime may well be traced to the same
common fountain. So fiercely intolerant
and imperious was the temper engendered
by Slavery, that when the Southern peo-
ple, after having controlled the national
council for half a century, were beaten at
an election, their leaders turned upon the
Government with the insolent fury with
which they would have drawn their re-
volvers upon a rebellious slave in one of
the negro quarters ; and they have con-
tinued since to prosecute their warfare,
amid all the barbarism and atrocities
natural and necessarily inspired by the
infernal institution in whose interests they
are sacrificing alike themselves and their
country.”

@Thc Charleston Mercury, of Oct.

“ From a gentleman just from Wil-
mington, we learn that the blockade Of
that port is as effective as Yankee inge—
nuity and an unlimited number of gun-
boats can make it. They have now es-
tablished two lines of picket boats in the
offing, to give the alarm of the attempted
egress of Blockade-runners, and as soon
as the latter make their appearance, the
boats throw up rockets and burn blue-
lights. The Yankee arrangements for
blockadiug Ihc port are good, and will
hold so perhapsa month longer, When
they will all be swopt away by the rude
blast of winter.”

A RAID IN MAINE—A dispatch from

was made Monday night to surprise the
water battery at Castine by a raiding
party from the land side. The sentinel
was fired upon, but the garrison rallied
and drove the attacking party off.

They escaped by boats after exchang-
ing a number of shots. One of the raid-

of the garrison were hurt, but bullets
came very near some of them. Castiuc
is defended by two new earthworks,

THE PET on THE BRITISH J EWS.—'-Ti]0
candidate of Belmont, Rothschildd do 00.
gets rapped by George Francis Train, in
a spicy Speech made in Pennsylvania.—
Said Mr. T:

“ A cabal of Jews at Chicago, man~
aging the convention, thrust upon the
American people a candidate for the
Presidency whose chief characteristic ‘ is
that he disobeys orders, and writes inso-
lent advices ou political matters to his
superiOr officer—General Scott—so that
he is the candidate of the British Jews
of London and Richmond, of Rothschild
and Benjamin.

Benjamin finds it necessary to rob the
cradle and the grave to fill the decimated
ranks of the rebel army. Belmont gal-
vanizes the dead to elect the vampire
Judas English President. Let them be-
ware ! for on the 9th of November this
will be the wail at London, Richmond,
and in New York, ‘ Who shall deliver
me from the body of this death.”

As long as Gen. McClellan had charge of
the Army of the Potomac, he was calling for
reinforcements. When he sat down before
Yorktown, with his splendid army of over
100,000 to confront McGruder, with only 8,~
000 rebels on the o posits side, “Little Mac”
sent to the Presi ent for reinforcements.
They were forwarded—but instead of using
them, Mac began to dig, and McGrudcr, who
had till that time expected to be overwhelm-
ed, began to laugh. Mac kept on digging—
The President telegraphed to him to pierce
the enemy's lips at ope, and the old hero,
Gen. Wool, a‘t Fortress Mou'ro'c, begged him
to advance, before the rebels could be rein-
forced. But he kept On digging.

Then he went to Washington, to have the
forts around the Capital dismantled, and the
big guns scnt to him! When Richmond was
at last fortified, McGrudcr withdrew his for-
ces from Yorktown, and Mac occupied his
trenches as he did those at Mohandas, and
modes‘tlyla‘hked that he might have Yorktown
inscribed on his banners ! As be advanced
towards the Chickahominy, with a greatly
superior force, he called on the President for
more reinforcements.

The battle of Fair Oaks, and Gai nc’s Mills
were forced upon him, while he was clamor-
ing for reinforcements, yet the first of these
battles was fought with only one half of the
troops hp had in hand, and the last With ou-
1y one third. ' ' ‘ “ ' -' “ " ' ‘

When told to gate the assistance of Pope
who was battling the Whole rebel army, he
asked for reinforcements. Shield's division
(under command of Gen. O.S.Fcrry) was sent

for 100,000-but he did nothing for Pope,
who was Obllgw‘e ‘0 full bacls u on Washing-

Peal, quarter, and core the pears, } of
them in a kettle with sufficient water to
!null them. When nearly soft enough to
put a spoon through, add a sum“ quanti-
ty of sugar (about as much as would lu-
rcquircd if slowing for the table, some
kinds of pours I'lquirc more llnm others.)
Boil slowly until a spoon can be put
through the quarters easily, then pour
the whole in a strainer or colander,
which should be suspended long enough
to let the syrup drain off well, then spread
the pears on earthen dishes and dry in a
moderately heated oven (eilhel‘ a brick
or store oven), To tell when they are
dry enough, break open the quarters—if
they do not seem pulpy or Wet, but solid
and waxy, they are fit to put away,

Puck them in wooden boxes or wood-
en lmttcr pails, with a sprinkle of sugar
over the top, and nail up securely. The
syrup which was strained off can be used
to boil another lot of pears in, and so on
for successive lots, with a little sugar
added every time, and water when re-
quired.

These are almost as nice as figs to «at,

stew then, pour a little water over them,

PI.ATFORM.—Tile Chicago Tribune makes

363‘" The following was. recently pub-

lished in the N. Y. Evening Post ;

Professor David A. Wells has issued
a valuable pamphlet upon the national
finances, entitled “ Our Burden and Our
Strength.” He writes with his accustom-
ed vigor and clcarness, and a faith which
He makes no
predictions, revels in no theories, but
merely shows the plain truth that the
nation is not bankrupt, and that it is
impossible for this miserable, cursed re-
bellion, no matter how long continued ,to
bankrupt it.

The cost of the national debt, if borne
by the population of the loyal States
alone, is per capita to each man. woman
and child, $33 01 per annum. ‘

The cost of the English debt is $4.25
per capita. It pay-3 to be an American.

The value of real and personal proper-
ty in the United States is, per capita,
$614,95 100; and cannot a man who has
$614,95 100 afford to pay $3.01 per
annum for a good many years, even if he
keeps it wrapped in a napkin and an-
productive? That is all he would have
to pay if the tax and revenue laws were
repealed, and all that they bring in is to
be deducted from his $3.01 per annum.
But the value of the annual product of

dollars ; that is more than twice the
whole national debt; and yields $25 to
pay it with, is pretty sure not to bemude
bankrupt by paying it.

This is only one Of Professor Well’s
clinchers. There are a good many more
of them; for instance:

One thousand million acres of national
lands form the national estate. This is
never worth less than two dollars per
acre, and before long will average ten.
So that. stop receipts from all sources—
do not call upon the people to pay their
$3.01 per anuum. repeal the tax and rev-
enue laws, take no portion of the nation-
al product—and the Government now
possesses property enough to pay a na-
tional debt ten times as large as it now
owes. The Rothschilds, and you and I,
would be glad to take the lands belong.
ing to the Government and pay two hun-
dred thousand millions of dollars for them.
We should double our money on our first
re-sales, trebcl it on others, and our chil-
dren ahuudred years from now would
get ten times on the remainder. That
looks like bankruptcy, very much.
