Tho political leaderp of the South will never onscnt to abandon their desperate position until we destroy the armies by which they main tain it, or until their own people, in the extermity of their suffeiinps, drive them out of it. ; They havo nothing to hope from peace or a rcstoMtiou of the Union but everlasting contemrt at home find abroad. They will, therefore, fight on as long as they can, aud our best negotiators for the present are Sherman's marches and Grant's ilcath-giips. These must soon bring tho more rational part, of the Southern people to reflection, when we shall have propoals tu which the Nor'h may honorably listen, aud when, too, we may return an answer that will show lis as magnanimous in concession as we have been energetic in combat. A Word to mion Men. We must remember that it. w not so much our work to labor for Mr. Lincoln's rc-eleeiion in the manner customary to politicians by speechesand tracts, nml clubs is toseethat hois sustained in his efforts to tit down the rebellion mil restore tlio Union. Our present concert is with General Grant nud the avenf army now before Petersburg. Has be men enough t carrry on his great campaign? Have we given Mr. Stanton troops for bis armies; aud Mr. Fessenden money to pay them? Phih(e.1thla Press. The immediate Dajiscr. We thiuk it probable that. Lee will call tho greater part of Johnston's troops into Virginia, in the hope thus to be able to take the offensive once more, and to seize that initiative which Grant has never let go. This would be in fact only a grand c meentration of tho rebel armies. No doubt when it in accomplished Leo wil! endeavor to bold Grant before Petersburg while he attempts another campaign into tho Valley of the Shenandoah, and cross the Potomac. It is to meet this prcbable attempt; to hold Lee in cheek while Grant, with the Army of the Potomac, deals with him; to ensure us the victory which mu?t be the final operation of the campaign and the wnr that we hope to see the militia of the free States drilled and firmed, and ready to march down to the Potomac line. We hope Government engineers are even now busy constructing such worku as shall best answer to bold a rebel invading force in cheek; and wiiliin these lines and works a hundred thousand men would be sufficient for that purpose, and be prepared nt the sa.ne time, by assiduous drill, for the day which may be near when they shall be called to help, in the open field, to decido the last ereat battle of the war.

We trust that as the Presidential cau vass ndvar.ccs, tho great loyal body of tho Union party will show that they will tolerate no personal altercations that they will put tho ban upon them as hostile und fa'.al to tho Union causa. The p irty cannot affwrd to be patient with men who think more of their own resentments than of the interest of the country. Tho mil lions who niakfi up the party are themselves controlled by by public considerations only; and they have a right to insist that this shall be tho all-ruling spirit of tho party. If this can be secured, the triumph of the party is certain. Thore m that in the Baltimore ticket and platform which will surely overconto nil opo sitions, unless it bo betrayed by ful.'c' friends. No observing man doubts thai the 'majority of the people aro for the prosecution of the war until the rebels are ubdtied info an unconditional submission. That determination .finds its only clear exponent in tho declared policy of the Union party. The Opposition party win, snd of necessity must, go before the pen- pie cither, with peace propositions out right, or with half-and-half,milk-and-water resolutions that will express neither principle nor purpose. In spite of all the venom which the Copperheads -nil emit against PresiJent Lincoln, and all their misrepresentation?, of the cause to which he is committed, the great loyal treason hating majority of the people will stand fast to the real issue, and give an overwhelming vote for tho maintentneo of the warif those who act in th name of the Union party truly devote themselves to its thorough brganizatioc and the concentration of its patriotic spirit. Let thero be an end of every old tank ling, overy unpleasant memory and let every man who cares for the deliverance of his country from its terriblo dangers, know no purpose but to do his utmost toward re-electing tho President who is pledged unreservedly never to yield to the rebellion Ar.

Pollard, until ashort timo ago one of die Editors of the Wvhmond Examiner, Mr. Pollard sums up the doings of the Confederates before the in-auguraiiou of Mr. Lincoln as follows: Ou the iiK'omitig of the Administration of Abraham Lincoln, on tho 4'.h of March, tho rival Government of tho South had perfected its organization; the separation had been widened and envenomed by the ambidexterity and perfidy of Piesident Buchanan. The Southern people, however, still hoped for the pcacu-ful accomplishment of their independence and deplored war between tho two sections, as "a policy detrimental to the civ-ibzel world." The revolution, in the e - i meantime, had rapidly gathered tfteiigth,. not only in moral ', power, but in the means of war and muniments of definite.

Pollard does not mention in Lis history that the Southern leaders had tho least disposition, before they began the war, to agree to any terms of pnace on tho basis of their ' continuance in the Union, but only hopedfor thu peaceful atrm:ipli'xlimnls of th'ir independence, and deplored war bo'ween the two sections, as a 'policy detrimental to the civilized world."

A Copperhead Peace. The poaco they mean is not the peace wo mean; they want aepnrutiort and independence if they can gut it, or if they cannot get it. a nieto nominal union like thu cldUoi'tcdcriUioii, which lull to pieces of itself, or the prcucnt rickety and utag-fzering Confederacy; Sut we want a reul Union, Buch us our fathers and tho progress of evenU have niuilc a Jiving ov-ganiyicd nRtion-.t rcpublio o ifublics, wln't-e bunds shall be as lirnt uflo ligaments of' the human body, and whose' operations as harmoniiuc ami lusting ns thotc of tho solar system. Tho political leaderp of the South will never onscnt to abandon their desperate position until we destroy the armies by which they main tain it, or until their own people, in the extermity of their suffeiinps, drive them out of it. ; They havo nothing to hope from peace or a rcstoMtiou of the Union but everlasting contemrt at home find abroad. They will, therefore, fight on as long as they can, aud our best negotiators for the present are Sherman's marches and Grant's ilcath-giips. These must soon bring tho more rational part, of the Southern people to reflection, when we shall have propoals tu which the Nor'h may honorably listen, aud when, too, we may return an answer that will show lis as magnanimous in concession as we have been energetic in combat. A Word to mion Men. We must remember that it. w not so much our work to labor for Mr. Lincoln's rc-eleeiion in the manner customary to politicians by speechesand tracts, nml clubs is toseethat hois sustained in his efforts to tit down the rebellion mil restore tlio Union. Our present concert is with General Grant nud the avenf army now before Petersburg. Has be men enough t carrry on his great campaign? Have we given Mr. Stanton troops for bis armies; aud Mr. Fessenden money to pay them? Phih(e.1thla Press. The immediate Dajiscr. We thiuk it probable that. Lee will call tho greater part of Johnston's troops into Virginia, in the hope thus to be able to take the offensive once more, and to seize that initiative which Grant has never let go. This would be in fact only a grand c meentration of tho rebel armies. No doubt when it in accomplished Leo wil! endeavor to bold Grant before Petersburg while he attempts another campaign into tho Valley of the Shenandoah, and cross the Potomac. It is to meet this prcbable attempt; to hold Lee in cheek while Grant, with the Army of the Potomac, deals with him; to ensure us the victory which mu?t be the final operation of the campaign and the wnr that we hope to see the militia of the free States drilled and firmed, and ready to march down to the Potomac line. We hope Government engineers are even now busy constructing such worku as shall best answer to bold a rebel invading force in cheek; and wiiliin these lines and works a hundred thousand men would be sufficient for that purpose, and be prepared nt the sa.ne time, by assiduous drill, for the day which may be near when they shall be called to help, in the open field, to decido the last ereat battle of the war.

Henry Ward lieccber says of slavery and the Constitution: '' "You must reeo'llcct that in all stages it was., the opinion of every man who founded the constitution that slavery was dyintr, and they did not feel as you or I would havo felt, but said : 'Ease it up in overy way.

' It takes ground distinctly ir' favor of aristocracy, nod frankly' as sumes for' I ts' party the nania of "Fodcral Republican." ' '"' :"".

Elsewhere they assuro the British nobi'ity that 'they havo in us" i. e. theso model democrats, ''earnest eoadju.ors." Asserting throughout the sovereignity of the States, as against the sovereignity of the people, they contend that tho Ui ion is not a nn tion, but a lidcinl republic, und they make their appeal to the citizens who, support their views under tho name of the "Federal Republicans." Why not If t thcin have it so? Men have a right to select their own desig nutiouV; und while they rejoice in the title of Federal Republicans, let us who assert the popular cause the superiority of man to institutioiis, cling to the good old democratic name, which, in spite of recent defilements, has yet a charm for tho people Behavior Ir. Society. If yuur language bo tfood, your knowledge creditable, your personal appearance devoid of eccentricity, and if you have learned to nviJ making yourself 'con-spicious,' there is no reason why you should not befit m and assured, anywhere Do not vex yourself with thoughts of in-' fcriority, b'tt be yourself, and a little familiarity with the world, will soon teach you the absurdity of timidity. Ease rap idly brings grace, if any effort whatever ho made to say and do kiucly things in a cheerful and conciliatory way. E.er;ise your ultctition and your thiHtuhts when in company. If you find that bushfulncsH & embarrassment without, cause occasionally afflict you in SO' ciety. banish (l.etn by Ending, something to do or say forthwith. Do not stop to argue with yourself, but act promptly. Ask for an introduction to somebody, and talk of the weather of the walking, or the ivoms, or any trifles, till something bet tor suggcuts iiself. The first step in politeness is to make such efforts, and they are a duty, In society you owe them to vntir host or hostess, who' does not cf course like to ice a gloomy or embarrassed guest. And you owe them at ali times. iu ail places, to overy body, as a matter of politeness. The Harmony of the Union Parfj a Prime Jicccwltj. We trust that as the Presidential cau vass ndvar.ccs, tho great loyal body of tho Union party will show that they will tolerate no personal altercations that they will put tho ban upon them as hostile und fa'.al to tho Union causa. The p irty cannot affwrd to be patient with men who think more of their own resentments than of the interest of the country. Tho mil lions who niakfi up the party are themselves controlled by by public considerations only; and they have a right to insist that this shall be tho all-ruling spirit of tho party. If this can be secured, the triumph of the party is certain. Thore m that in the Baltimore ticket and platform which will surely overconto nil opo sitions, unless it bo betrayed by ful.'c' friends. No observing man doubts thai the 'majority of the people aro for the prosecution of the war until the rebels are ubdtied info an unconditional submission. That determination .finds its only clear exponent in tho declared policy of the Union party. The Opposition party win, snd of necessity must, go before the pen- pie cither, with peace propositions out right, or with half-and-half,milk-and-water resolutions that will express neither principle nor purpose. In spite of all the venom which the Copperheads -nil emit against PresiJent Lincoln, and all their misrepresentation?, of the cause to which he is committed, the great loyal treason hating majority of the people will stand fast to the real issue, and give an overwhelming vote for tho maintentneo of the warif those who act in th name of the Union party truly devote themselves to its thorough brganizatioc and the concentration of its patriotic spirit. Let thero be an end of every old tank ling, overy unpleasant memory and let every man who cares for the deliverance of his country from its terriblo dangers, know no purpose but to do his utmost toward re-electing tho President who is pledged unreservedly never to yield to the rebellion Ar.

To nh'ow how utterly false the assertion i of the Copperhead leaden, is, that tho j administration is justly chargeable with j tho war, we.givo below a short extract from tho ' Southron History of the War" by Edward A. Pollard, until ashort timo ago one of die Editors of the Wvhmond Examiner, Mr. Pollard sums up the doings of the Confederates before the in-auguraiiou of Mr. Lincoln as follows: Ou the iiK'omitig of the Administration of Abraham Lincoln, on tho 4'.h of March, tho rival Government of tho South had perfected its organization; the separation had been widened and envenomed by the ambidexterity and perfidy of Piesident Buchanan. The Southern people, however, still hoped for the pcacu-ful accomplishment of their independence and deplored war between tho two sections, as "a policy detrimental to the civ-ibzel world." The revolution, in the e - i meantime, had rapidly gathered tfteiigth,. not only in moral ', power, but in the means of war and muniments of definite. Tort Moullric and Castle Pinckiiey bad been c'iptured by the South Carolina troops; Fort Pulaski, the defense of Savannah, had been taken, the arsenal of Mount Vernon, Alabama,' "with twenty thousand etanu of arim, bad been ceied by the Alabama troops; Fort ' Morgan, in Mobile B iy. had been taken; Fort ..Jaek-HDii, St. Philip', au J Pike"neKr'Ncw' 'fir-loans, had been captured by the Louisi nna troops; the New Orleans Mint and Custom House had been taken; the Little Rjck Arsenal. had been suized ' by the Arkansas troops, though Arkausas had refund to secede; and on the' 16th of February General Twiggs had transferred the public property iu Texas to the State authorities.'' - . ' air. Pollard does not mention in Lis history that the Southern leaders had tho least disposition, before they began the war, to agree to any terms of pnace on tho basis of their ' continuance in the Union, but only hopedfor thu peaceful atrm:ipli'xlimnls of th'ir independence, and deplored war bo'ween the two sections, as a 'policy detrimental to the civilized world."

Wo may admit some foundation for a difference between paper money aud gold but nothing like that which has prevailed fir many months past. It is not possible. neither is it necessary, t ascertain "pro, cisely how much of the premium in currency may rest ou reil.md hpwinuoh on fictitious grounds; but a comparison of tho present rate with that of any previous' timo when it was much lower, must lead to one of the , two conclusions, viz: that it is now very much above, or was then very much below' what any !rc,l grounds may he supposed to justify.' In tho latter part of May the (piota-tions wcru about 180. On the announcement of Mr. Chase's resignation, July 'l, they rose to 280. There was no expan sion of currency to produce this; there is no new revolutionary alarm, . no cir cunHtance whatever to injure the public credit. If any change of policy iu tho Treasury was signified, it was that of contraction, m t of, cx ansion , Our conclusion is, then, that this rise, of one hundred per cent, on tho par of gold is a nuro fiction, an.I nothing el.-e.
