The V B Law and Resolutions are published in the Statesman by Authority. Til E I'ONTKDEIUTK COJiGKESS. Our eiiKtiTii exchanges bring ni an nccounl of Intureeting proceedings in the Confederate Congress. On tho 24th (if Inst December, in the rebel Home of llopresetitiilives, a diociis ioo was bud upon certain resolution! concern in; negotiations looking toward pence. The original resolutions wore, introduced by Turner of North Carolina, and a substitute, fur tliein Wat offered by Rmloibtlu of Mississippi, (him of bald-bend memory). Mullen of Virginia Saving the floor, offered a resolution that it was undignified " to Send commissioners to Wash Ington to secure A cessation of Inutilities, lint that it would be " eniiiiently roper that the House of Representatives of the Confederate States should despatch without delay In (nine convenient point, a body of Commissioners, thirteen in number, composed of otio Repre sentative from each of said States, to meet and confer with such individual as may be appoint ed by the Government of the United States, in regard to all outstanding questions of differ ence between tho two Governments, and to agree if possible upon terms of a lasting and honorable peace, subject to the ratification of the reflective Governments noil of tlu sover ' eigll States represented tlieiein." In the course of Mullen's remarks upon the resolutions, ho raid that Grant had said that be was willing to receive any gentleman, or set of . Commissioners, and to invite a liko number from the Government to meet tliem, and en deavor to settle difficulties. He ndded, "I claim that the gentleman and myself have the right os individuals lo go, and if received by General Grant we could take the initiative steps, or that any number of gentlemen might do so. and that each of the Statu Legislatures oan do so. Yes, sir, the Virginia Legislature, now in session, may if they see fit commence to negotiate, and so nf any and all the States.' Subsequently Mr. Footo of Tennessee, iu speech upon the currency question, plainly de clared that the Confederacy was in the most imminent danger "upon the very edge of rum. ' And we suppose ho didn't see what aould prevent it going over the. " edge '' short ly, and therefore sought lu escape while he uould. He proceeded lo deal out unsparing denunci ation upon the rebel executive and legislative departments iu tho following tortus : "At home a series of Legislative measures have found sanction here which must bo inev itably fatul lo Stale rights. ami Stato sovereignty and to popular freedom, if not speediiy modi fied. Congress is rapidly abandoning nil its important powers and building up an irrespon sible military despotism, the like of which line never been seen before upon this enrth. Other acts aro in progress here, which, should they pass,1 must produoo popular convulsions which will put our whole government system in the most serious jeopardy. Enormous abuses of power heretofore committed by tho Executive Department have occurred which has every where filled tho minds of our couiitryiuen with " alarm. The policy or the present Houso seems to be to crush out dissatisfaction by armed vio lence alone, in imitation of that thorough poli cy introduced and enforced in Ki gland by the celebrated Karl of Stafford, the enforcement of which speedily broiighuCliailes the First to the block, but before Stafford had lost his own bead. Ten days hence freedom of delibera tion will have been rlfectually extinguished iu Ibis body, by means which I may not specify. The freedom of the press will, in nil probabil ity, come lo an end about the sumo time by the operation of causes which I liavo heretofore discussed in this ball. In the midst of these alarming occurrences, and while corruption is known lo lie iliilnsnig itsell along all the chan nels of ollieial intercourse, what is the condi tion of our armies 1 lie then reviews tho military silualiou, de nounces Davis for various short-coinings and malfeasances, rays Savannah w as about to full, (he was right enough about that) that Charles ton will soon follow, that Hood's army is faiully Compromised, predicts that Sherman, after cap turing Savannah and Charleston, will come round to Richmond by sea, ami Imputes all their dire calm ities to ('residential inteifereuco with military plans. As the most elleetive sauoliou to his protest, be closes by Mguifyiug hi intention to with draw finally from the House, utid take no fur thef part in tho deliberations uf thai august body. His subsequent action iu attempting to desert the sinking ship, showed that ho was in earnest. These were his final words : "Sir, Ibavo spoken out mr views franklv and explicitly ; and' now I wish to say In this Houso lliut l lie vuursu ol evenls, uere and e so where, has been recently snub that I shall deem it a duty wliiuh 1 owo alike lo my char- aoter ami my principles, which I have herein fore steudily maintained, lo withdraw fioin this booy altogether.. I am a Tree man, ami the representative of freemen, and I do not know how to legislate in chains. I w ill no longer be responsible for mcasuredopted iu secret ses sion of tin body which my whole soul ubhors ami in)' w hole understanding condemns. This, as I have already said, is nerhiins the last lime that I will address this body, or discuss the questions Here umler piiiisiilorntii.il. 1 shall withdraw lo some sequestered spot, here oan enjoy a litile repose and freedom from taxation. If disturbed in my retreat by the hand of op pression I will seek iu foreigii climes that free dom and happiness which i consider are de nied lo rue hero. Foole unfortunately had not access lo the copperhead newspaper published iu Oregon. Had bo read them and behoved them (a rather difficult Ibing for an intelligent man In do) he would have known that the " South couldn't be conquered," that although Hardee was driven out of Savannah, Leo cooped up in Richmond, not daring to send a man, out from Its defense to the assistance of (ho other armies, Hood's horde scattered In the four winds, that vigorous ooscription bad exhausted the entire amis bear ing population i yet the condition uf theCou federacy was uti worse tbau was that of the Colonies ti.l before their independence was ac knowledged, and that tho lowering gloom was only tho prccursef of the blight day which was shortly to follow. What a pity thai Foole couldn't bare seen those wonderfully- wise sheets ! A ClimsTliAB GirT. General Sherman, after the capture of Savannah, tent the follow ing dispatch to Ibe President !

Whiteaker, A. A. Smith, S. li. Crans ton, Stukely Ellsworth nod others, for a w rit of mandamus to compel tho sheriff to receive greenbacks for taxes. The following were his remarks upon deciding the question as given in the State Journal : I understand the object of this suit is simply to test Ibe validity nf 11 11 act of the last Legis lature, requiring Jill taxes to he paid in gold and silver coin of the United Stales. If Unit bo the true reason, it is certainly de sirable that the proceeding be so shaped as to least disturb the public interest, or embarrass tho duties nf ollicers, whose duty it is to collect the public revenue. To allow this writ would, in effect, compel the sheriff of tho 2d Judicial District to ro ct-ivo Treasury notes, at their face, from this time forward. Such a step at this lime, would be palpably most unjust to the largo number who have already paid their tax in gold. Nor is their any way iu whiuli the liabilities of the tax payers could be cpnulir.cd. lint a still more cuiharrnsing question would present itself to the reveral county treasurers. They are required In pay to the .Mate Treas urer in gold and silver coin. Suppose, ns in the case ol this county, there has not been coin onnuiih received to pay the State lax They certainly have no power to sell these notes at a discount. The State tax Mould re main unpaid the several counties made liable b r heavy penalties, and the State itself ren dered unable to perforin numerous contracts entered into iu good faith, and which the inter est of the w hole coinimiuity demands should be pcrlonnod. It would not be difficult to forsee the necessity ol an extra session of the Legin luttitc to relieve the Statu from pecuniary cm hurrasmc nt. In view uf tho strongest reason of public necessity, I must over rule the demurrer, I do so pro forman, having declined to hear any ar gumeni, I shall express no opinion upon the molds of tho points raised. Did this, question nlfcct toe tax payers of the 2d .Judicial District alone, I should have 110 difficulty in deciding the case upon principles, which I think sufficiently sound. Hut it direct ly iilfecls the whole State, and it is very fitting that lliu question should he decided by a triliu mil whose judgment shall hu law to cvj. i v citi zen of the State. In the meantime! no injustice is done to nny individual tux payer. Tun assessments being uniform and payable in that currency which is the standard ol all commercial vitiiies, and the circulating medium of the country, is as nearly equitalile as can lie made. The Judge, it will be seen, defers the discus lion of the law points to the Supreme Court which convenes next Scpteiuper. His decision in this particular caso appears to have been based rather upon tho broad principle of right between man and man. tlntn the abstruse con ditions nf the common law. At any rate, we know that this result ol the suit in Lane coun ty will be met with a hearty approval by nine tenths of the people of tho State. About that proportion have already paid their State taxes in guld.aud they very are much in favor of pre venting the other tenth Irmn shrinking out of one-half of theirs by paying in greenbacks Tub Northkk Minks. Tho present indi cations are that tho different mining regions eust of tho mountains will attract as tunny ad venturers from this valley and from' California during the coming season as any previous time. These mines ore now a reality. The large amounts of treasure already shipped have con vinced the gold loving Califoruiatis that there are mines iu tho souwy mountains of the north that rival those of California iu her palmiest days. The developments of the past two years have exploded the old theory that gold ounnnt bo found in paying qtiautities except in warm countries. Thu Ivmieniti niiife seem lo pos sess no small share of the attraction nt the present time, though large numbers nre bound for lloiso and Owyhee. Tho latter point is at tracting not only adventurer, but uieu of cap ital, who uro convinced by the best of evidence that money may be safely invested in the quartz lodes of that region. Within n week past we have earned lhat quartz rich in gold "has been discovered 011 Ten Mile Creek within a tew miles of the Dalles. Numbers nf claims have been taken and quite an excitement has arisen iu that place over the discovery. These uew discoveries show that those are deceived who llrnk tho mines of Eastern Ore gon and Id alio are worked out. We believe lhat they are so far from being exhausted that thu half of them have never yet been discov ered. Large numbers of those who go there will doubtless bu disappointed iu their hopes, but we doubt not theru will be many new dis coveries and many fortunes made during Ibe coming season. IT" Tho following is an extract from. Admi rul Porter's report of thu attack 1 11 Fort Fisher.

KMII.KUIOV TO MKXliil. When the news renehod us that tho Califor nia rebel, Ouin, had solicited ami obtained from Maximilian a position as Governor of So norn, we expressed a belief that whatever the intention of tho "Emperor" might be, it was evidently On iu's desire to uso his influence iu making that country an nsylum for expatriated rebels from the United States. Recent devel opments have strengthened lis in t tint belief. We now find that Gwiu is offering induce ments to immigrants and making tho rebel press on this coast his advertising medium. The copperhead editors from tho renegade Yankee, lleriah Brown, down to the insignifi cant tool of. Hush, Miller fc Co., are zealous in their efforts to aid ihe "Duke" in peopling 80 nora. Notwithstanding these notorious hypo. crilciPhave steadily denounced aud abused tho Government uf tho United Stales for not en forcing thu Monroe doctrine at tho cost of itn- medintu war with France; notwithstanding they have elongated their hypocritical faces and held up their hands iu holy horror at the idea ol a foreign despotism being established iu Mexico, they now announce, with an nir of ev ident intisfuctinu, that "tho new Emperor seems to have pretty ell'ectmilly destroyed ull the formidable military force of the Const it u tionalists, driving the leaders into exile, or winning Ilium over to bis cause by fuir prom- iscs." J si eulogizing the policy of thu "Emperor' they suy ! "Some of his recommendations pu! to the blush our pretended republican liberty." They say 1.0 their Dixie loving followers lhat those who emigrate, to Mexico " with strong arms and brave heart are sure lo succeed." To those who do not know that these'willing tonic of Gwiu are not only inconsistent, change ulile politicians, buf the most unscrupulous liars and hypocritical knaves, there is some thing strange iu these inconsistent positions Why should these men object to thu establish meiit of the despotism iu Mexico, while they are doing everything in their power to aid and foster it They are not only willing that tin bastard Emperor should rule the debased MeX icons, but tiro advising their friends of the chivalry order to eini-'rato to his dominions. They evidently begin to think the "lust ditch is situated somewhere in that region. There are many evidences that there will ultimately bo a general exodus nf rebel', not only from California and Oregon, but from tho States iu rebellion, and that their land of promise wi bu Mexico. That these rebel paper are be coming so earnest in' advertising the affair i probably an evidence tha t their last hope of destroying their own country is about dispelled ami that they think thu "Hegira" is soon to take place. If they hive really concluded I "leave their country for their caiintiy's good, we suppose they cannot be blamed for indue iug a number of their blind lollowers to pre cede them to the laud of their choice. And what n "sweet scented" set nf subjects for a Prince of the Houso i,f H;iphtirg ! The Mexican greaser with old cork legged Santa Anna nt their head used to bo considered moi Icy crew of human beings; but what nn addition will bu made to thu assemblage when they nru joined by a few thousand F. F. V.'s a regiment of border ruffians, several such run a iv ay rebels a old G win, and a full corps of copperhead editors and defunct scrub politi cians ! What an empire ! what a po -.ple-J From which class nf this motley crew will the "Emperor" chooso his coiullers ? These villainous copperheads may prove better servants of Max than they have citizens of our republic but we incline to the opinion that if he trusts the. a too far lie will find the caotus transferred from his stuudard to his throne. OS WHICH MDK SlIALlTvVK FIGHT? A late number of the Review published nn absurd item about six h 11 ml red Irish soldiers w ho were said lo have been made prisoners by the rebels, aud as their term uf enlistment ex pired while they were ill rebel durance, the Government was ill 110 hurry toexchange llieoi. They therefore enlisted in tho rebel army, and this thu Rrtictt calls " getting even " rvith the Abolition Government ! It evidently lakes great satisfaction in the reflection. A corres pondent of thu State Journal ciles these facts, mid proceeds to ask Ihe editor of the Review to elate, " In case there is an outbreak on this coast, whether wo would advise them lo support the " Lincoln (iovi riiment," or oppose it. In case Ihe evil disposed get up an organized resistance here on any ground, on which side rha I we fight 1 will be a question every citizen must not only answer, but net upon. Will ihe Re tieir answer that question now ? The query appears to us a very unnecessary one. '1 he Recieic and Arena have always im itated the Marysville Express nnd the San Franciscu Democratic Press, in hampering and impeding Ihe Government by discouraging en listments, snarling, fault-finding and outrageous lying -about every act of Ihe Administration, depreciating every success of the Federal ar mies and mnguilyiug every little ndvantnge ol Ihe rebels, until they have made it very ap parent lhat thcr sympathies and hopes tire al together 011 Ihe side of the rebellion.

The different exponents of the harmonious Dcmorrucy of Iho present day don't seem tn uccord with one another upon the subject of slavery. The. New York World the ablest of nil the copperhead papers ill the country tells its render very plainly that Iho destruction of slavery is a settled thing, and that public opin ion w ill be more and more inclined to acquiesce in it. It says "lliero is nn conceivable posi tion nn Ihe slavery question on which Ihe detn--ocrulio party can plant itself, and become a majority," and Ihereforo nska very prneticnlly why should iho parly bind itself to a dead corpse 1" The World wants to get into power, and evidently don't intend to let any tenacious adherence to principles, interfere wilh the 110- coniplishmcnt of lhat object. The Rochester (New York) Union, A cop perhead paper of considerable influence, after slating what has been done in regard tn slav ery, thus lays down Its version of the Demo cratic creed upon that subject : " These Ihines nil belong lo the pnst. The rebellion followed close upon Lincoln's elec tion. ' The rights uf the States,' 1 tho balance of power,' the barriers vhich protected us in our personal rights ana the Southerners in theirs that to hold slaves being conceded to be among them are all swept away. For the time being wo know not how much longer they are all gi.ne ; but a wreck remains. It is the proper mission of conservatives of every partisan designation ; it- Is the duty of every good citizen lo endeavor to restore nnd re-es tablish the old harriers ; -liut it is nut oar mis sion nor our duty to re-establish slavery. It w as not our business, nor while the Constitution remained in force was it our right, to destroy or to molest slavery. We have not destroyed it. - Wo nre under tin obligation, wo have no desire to re-cstablhh slavery or to protect the wreck of i: from surrounding perils. We have nothing to do with it specifically one nay or the oilier. If it falls it falls not by our fault. We desire the emancipation uf the Slates from rebel Ihriihlnin, tho restoration of thu uolhority of the Constitution nnd tho re establishment nf the States in harmony therewith. To the Slates thus restoredt and not tn us, ' the Constitution us it is ' remits that question. We tried to keep the peace between thu two extremes who, ill contempt of the Coiislitulion and of the Inn s of Hi 11 id iiei'hliorhooil. Here determined to niultc it the cause of contention and hitter strife. We failed. Hut we did our whole duly in the premises. Accordingly, we owe neither of the exlieme parlies, us such, nnd further cfl'orl tn save them or either of them from the cause queiices nf their own wickedness and fully. That is our position to day as we understand it." The, Louisville (Ivy.) Journal, which out hermled Herod in abuse of I lie Administration for the Emancipation Proclamation ami kin died measures, now roar gently on the other side. U boldly advocates imiiiedialo amend incut of tho Coiislitulion so as lo prohibit the accursed thing forever. Hero is what it says : " Such is the demoralized condition of sla very in Kentucky; so great the present evils and annoyances sullered tliereliy, ami so much greater -those iu anticipation, that we believe our Legislature nt its approaching ro conven tion would uu sustained liv the people in avow iug : First, that the rebellion has virtually do strayed the institution in t Irn State.' Second, that Ihe sooner we can get rid of tha shadow of. a slave labor system and grasp the tubtlance of a compensated labor system, the better it will be for the interests of labor, the moral con dition of Ihe negroes, and the welfare of nil the industrial pursuits of tho conuunnweollh ; and third, a a corollary, from the self-evident in ference uf the first mid second points, that it Would be advisable to recommend In our Rep resentatives iu Cmigrcs to place the coustitu liouirl amendment before the puoplu at this ses sion, and thus anticipate a year for the removal of a stili vexed question lioni the councils of thu nation." Further on iu the samo article, it has this language: ' There can be scarcely two opinions nn the subject ; no slaveholder can now expect Iho perpetnntiop of the institution. The veriest secessionist cannot rationally expect it. Sup pose Hood could as soma of this class may be mad enough to desire enter, and temporarily occupy the State, no event could possibly more contribute to the niter deslruotion of slavery.'". It concludes : " Tho Republican party have already pro posed to organize, and have called a State Convention on the 4th of January nt Frank fort for Ihe purpose of carrying tho next Au gust el clion upon this question. Where is the necessity of entering into an excited contest, mid milking a li lit over iho waku of the dead corpse of slavery f Let ns bury Ihe festering carcass nut of sight, ami let the present let'is laluro bo thu undertakers. Wo believe I hey will render their names memorable iu thu bis lory nf the Stale, and when the calm verdict is stamped upon their notion they will win the gratitude of the present aud of future genera- lion. If they shrink Irotn meeting the issue, nnd refer the question to the people, we fuel perlectly eoovmeeij than an overwhelming vote will be cast lo rebuke their timidity, aud send representatives In Fiankfort, who will pro claim lhat slavery in it present putrescent condition. Is an encoml.iaoco t the growth, prosperity, and moral advancement nl'lhe State. Out of Ihe carcass of Iho lion they will exlruct sweetness; from nil effete system a beautiful improvement will spring lip to solve the riddle of Sampson, symboliied by bees and bonev the emblem ol industry." The Copperhead democracy of Oregon main ly adhere to the other wing. They continue to recognize iu slavery tho divine institution which is tlie source f pretty nearly all human blessings, nnd rave frantically nt effort for its desTueli.ui. The world does move in " ite of Ibem however. Think of the most influential McClellan paper in Kentucky boldly advocat ing immediate emancipation ! Tniuk of Mis sonri drvided inlo two parties upon the question of tine and manner of emancipation, (as nt the election n rear ago) with no candidates running who were not pledged unequivocally to emancipation in some form, and lho"iiu mediates " triumphing handsomely !

Years ago there lived on Ihe h.wer Umpqua in Southern Oregoi e John Eudicott (!. inline-, n direct descendant fiom ln of the old ningeslerial families of the old liny State, as his name indicates, and formerly a resident of Huston or that vicinity. Hu was a mini of early culture and good breeding, and enough natural talent In have, at one time, written sumu nrti cles upon commercial subjects which were thought worthy of place in so stately a period ical ns Hunt's Merchant's Magazine. Hut eccentric notions, combined with unfortunate habits, unfitted him (us be thought) frr civili zalinn, and, iu suine fit of dis? 11st with some nf his kind, ho left hnine, nnd after drifting into all tho quarter ef Ihe globe, finally settled down by himself on n laud claim in a lonely lint lovely spot on tho banks of tho Uinpqun. Falling reudily into the habits of frontier life, be soon became an expert in wnodinan'i craft, and especially in guiding and handling a ca noe, Some years since, and all at once, he abandoned his rmnuntio life and returned tn civilization, lie is now a leading factor in a wealthy mercantile house in Calcutta or rath cr, to be more exact in tho Culcutta branch of n Huston bouse, which also hue branches in Valparaiso, Rio and Canton. John Endicott Gardner was a school iniitu of Amury 1 1 ol brook, nnd used to tell a little story of that worlhy's early days, which may throw some light if tiny is needed upon the ques tion of the Oregon Sanitary funds. The only defence we ever heard made lor Ainnry against the charge of peculation, wns the influence of improbability, based upon tho iissutnptmu of former good character. We never attached much weight tn this consideration, but for thu benefit of thosu.who may, wu think this inci dent in Amory's college days ought to bo in troduced by way nf what the gentlemen nf tho long robe call rebutting evidence. Hut to our story, which runs thus : At some exhibition or other public occasion in the school or college of which 'both Holbrook and Gard ner were students, the former delivered an ad dress or rend an essay which, in point of abili ty and finish, astonished his fellow students. Amory enjoyed the fame of his debut amazing ly, but some of the other competitors who knew Amory well wero satisfied the production was lo much for him, and that he must have cribbed" it. At length n book was found containing the identical composition, word for word, with the exception of a short paragraph at thu h ad and tail which Amory bad rubsli tuted. Iu other words, thu fainnii composi tion upon which tho young Holbrook anil fu ture Sanitary Agent has been pluming himself mid receiving literary honors, was stolen! At a council of thu students it was determined to punish the young rascal and inaku an example of li i nt. Accordingly a chosen parly proceed ed to his room one night, nnd taking him out of the bed, dragged him in hi shirt lo the col lego pump. Placing him oudcr the spout, they divnched the poor fellow until be begged for mercy nnd promised never to bo caught steal ing agniu. Hmv well Amory has kept this promise, made under the pump, it is needless now to inquire. His Jesuitical mind would probably lend him to consider it ns a promise made tinder duress and constraint nnd lint binding out of sight of thu pump. lint wo think on Ihe question of character nnd natural tendencies, that the story goes to show that Amory had a taking way with him, even in his youth. The boy ia said to lu Ilia father of thu man and thu reasonable inference is that the old Holbrook partakes of thu peculiarities of tho young Holbrook notwithstanding the hydropathic treatment at Ihe pump. The wa ter cure having failed, we propose nt short in tervals to try what virtue theru is in the old fashioned blister, until the patient cither no count or quit the country. Wu have great faith in thu blister tho blister facts. If kept publicly and pereveringly applied, they will tell on tho most hardened nnd chronic caso.

But we Ihink tho hlis'er treatment will make him succumb iu the end. At least we will try it, and see if money nnd impudence can live uawu such an outrage upon n too con lidiug community.

In the center there i represented a lung dining tub e with a chair for each Stale, All the chairs but those representing the Slates in rebellion aro filled, aud Uncle Abraham stand at the door, with an extract from his message, "The door has been for a full year open to all," printed under his feet, and his benevolent countenance indicating a desiru that - all Ihe vacant seats shall be filled. Outside tl.e 1 nor are seen Ihe rebellious brothers shiv ering with cold, gaunt with hunger, and cast ing wishful glanucs nt Ihe comfort and enjoy ment within. On the walls within are pictures nf Union generals aud various mottoes appro priate to the limes. In one comer is seen a crowd of rebel de serters coming into Union lines and being wel comed by the Imys with a hearty good will, and in number tire genius nf Victory Is offering the olivf hrnuch to Submission. In one place the returning prodigal's welcome is represented. Iu number, the hero of Vicksbnrg is receiving the "unconditional surrender" nf n rebel olfi. cer; and in another, Ihe "old folks' and little folks" nre di inking a toast to the brave -men iu the field. Colonel Charles 8. Bulkier, Chief Engineer nf the Russian American Telegraph line. Dr. Fisher, Surgeon of the expedition, and Gonriro Kcrnan, Telegrapher, sailed from New York, on Monday, tia Nicaragua, nn the steamship Golden Role. On his arrival at Sun Francisco, Col. ilulkley will start exploring parties to Sitka, New Archangel, up the Frnzer river, and oilier places ol the northwestern conlinenet tn accomplish surveys necessary fur the future operations nf Hie great expedition under his di rection. Eastern Paper, We learn that the agent nf the proposed line has aire A ly gone up the northern coast, by way of Victoria, to make preliminary arrangements for a vigorous prosecution of the work as soon as the opening of Spring permits. It is thought that by Juno I8ili, ihe line can be completed so that wo w ill be iu complete telegraphic com luunicntion with Europe and Asia.

President Lincoln's letler In Ihe New England dinner at New York contains the following sentence I "The work of Ihe Plymouth emigrants Was the glory of llieir age. f While we h verence their memory let ns not forget bow vastly great er is our opportunity." Pitriek will nl endorse this sentiment elghlly! Tllli UMOLX I. II V I'. It MI li NT." It is the common practice uf the journals in the interest of Jeff Davis iu this Slate tn rail tho government of tho Uuiled States Iho "Lin coin's government" the people who support it Lincoln's slaves," nnd those who fight, its bat tles, "Linoolu hirelings," ami never tn men. lion any one iu authority except connected wilh smno fnul epithet or disparaging term. On the contrary, Jell' Davis and all belonging to the Southern Confederacy tiro always treat ed with respect. If since niir government has existed it oould over be culled a "government of the people," the designation never, was more uppioprito than nt tho present. No administration lias ever been inaugurated under muro ndvetsu circum stances than that nf Mr. Lincoln. None have had more perplexing difficulties lo encounter iu their term, if all were summed up, than fiis has had to meet each year, mid wo might truly say, each mouth, of it existencu. None have been forced to draw so heavily upon the blood and treasure of tho people. Yet when the people met in Convention tn soleot a successor to Mr. Lincoln, notwithstanding ull' these causes of irritation, and the usage which has been almost binding as law, that the Chief Magistrate should serve but one term, Mr. Lincoln was re nominated by a unanimity nev er before seen in a convention, and has been chosen a second time by the pcopb, by a lar ger majority than has over before been given to n President. . Tho people have also elected a Congress that will support thu measures of the Administra tion by a more than two thirds majority. This government is ns much tho government uf every citizen as it is Mr. Lincoln's govern ment. Each lias the same rights to protection by it, the same I dessiugs tn derive from it ; and it is 11 much thu duly of each lo perform the part assigned linn in upholding unit maintain iug the government 11 it is the duty nf Mr Lincoln to perlorm Ins. lie Who lias not lell this in his heart is unlit tn bu trusted with a part of the power of government the right uf so II rage. , bile Mr. Lincoln, ns a citizen, has nn more right nor immunities than any n.her citizen as I In- Chief Magistrate of the nation he rep resent the inn It-sly ot the people who nave chosen him to that exalted position; ami in suit mid epithets applied to their chief are iu suit and epithets up died to llieoi. But these journals leave ns in uu doubt ns to whom their llhose is illl'ecteil. It is the people ol the Um ted State liny revile nod slander through their President. With them the patriotic citizen who t pholds his government with his voice nnd treasure Is a "Lincoln slave " The man who sheds his ) 1 li 11 nl to niiiiutniii its integrity and honor, is 1 "Lincoln hireling'' ; and, a a general rule Ihe more faithful mid ellicicnt Ihe public ser vim t, cither civil or military, the grosser the abuse aud viler the epithet they apply to him. They claim tone democratic journals, per haps if Jeff Davis held the helm and their par tv manned the Ship uf Statu they might ml here lo the democratic idea, "that Ihe minority should rule and the minority submit." But these mercenary creatures never held to any doctrine or creed longer limn "it would pay never were mured by a generous impulse their bends have never felt nn niisellish love They know that within the four year of Iho incoming Administration thu government must he reinstated in all Its power or he destroyed. That the people, by llieir choice of Legislature and Executive, have declared the policy of the Administration beyond doubt or change. Yet thev labor as assiduously to break down the Administration aud policy of the people, as do Iho traitors in arm. Are they less trnilors I Both are actuated by the same motive nod la bor to effect thu same object, differing only ns the sneaking duel Uillers Irom the open rot) ber. Aro ihuy vntitlud to nioro toleration 7 I MPH0VKD MASAGKM K XT. It is tuitisfuctarv lo feel, ns nil loyal men do, that the remarkable success which has attended our arms throughout the summer nnd full cam paigns is due, nut to mere good fortune, but lo thu better way in which our war policy ha been conducted lor some time pnst. Iu the first place, there ha been complete haioiony among nor higher ollicers. which was not Ihe case ilur iug the first two years of the war. Tho per soual jealousies and antipathies then existing, tho clashing political prejudices nnd the feuds Oct w eon est relators ana civilians, were enough nf themselves tn defeat the wisest pol icy that could have been matured, lint Grant who, like Iho Duke of Wellington, never lias any quarrels, has changed all this. Ho lias publicly avowed that he expects more from Geo. Sherman thuii from any other iiuin iu the country. On Ihe other hand, Sherman, in his repnrt of the Atlanta campaign, has put un record his extreme solicitude for the fullest in structions nt his chief, ami ugain, iu his letter mi the battle uf Pittsburg Lauding, bus vimli cated Grant for thu benefit uf history. Similar relations of harmony and cuuli'lence subsist between Grant and Thomas and Sheridan mid Cauby. Thus the wheels uf our great war sys tem all revolve easily, without jar, fnclioo, or collision. But uot only does the dominant war policy thus stai d a fair chance of being well carried nut, but there is a war policy. It i nl pre pared by n learned theorist behind a bureau in Washington ; but it is the fruit of trie I nnd consummate generalship, npplied tn tho exi gency as it is actually found lo exisl in I be field. Sheridan and Thomas nnd Sherman have all wou deserved reimwn for their services, but their eclat should not be allowed to iclipse the merits of lhat plain, unpretending man at Pe lersburnh. w ho has directed all their operations, ami timid them v. ilia reference to the whole field of the war. Notwithstanding his own ar duous services in holding Lee where lie can do the least barm, no part of the vast system else where has escaped his eye, and 110 considera tion ha been allowed to interfere with the rigid execution nf his plan. It is well known that for nil bis regard and esteem for Gen. Thomas, had not the latter. moved on Hood when he was ordered, be would Ipive been superseded just as surely as Gen. Washington, on the prospect nf a second great w ar, set aside h a bosom friend Kuux for the more effective Hamilton. It is (his complete disinterestedness, com bined with his comprehensive sagacity nnd iion firmness, wlueb gives Ihe Lieutenant General his sovereign hold on the coiilideuoe of the loyal country. Gathering frum actual experience what measures are demanded by the piovre of Ihe wnr, ho will apply them without any re gard In personal considerations, imparling en ergy and unity lo all nor operations by laud and sea. He does w t make an insufficient demoii slrnliun in one place, and give the enemy time tn rally and defeat it, and then a month or two af erward try another movement elsewhere, for which the rebels have bad equal opportunities lo prepare. That strategy is all past nnd gone. Now, when Sherman moves on his great orbit, Foster, Davidson, Hurbridge nnd Stoueman mote, far distant, in theirs ; and At the precise climax uf his opi ortuiiily, Thomas strikes his decisive blows. Thus it is that the rebellion has been redeced to straits never reached be fore, but which will be the sure heginning nf tbe end, if Congress and the people will only dJ to this unity nf action, by supplying G -nut with warlike resonrcus as implicitly nnd readily as his rnbnrdmalee turn them to account.
