Tho following letter, addressed by tbe New York Workingmen's Dcinociatio Association to General MoClellan, pre scnta in a very clear and effective manner that view of the nature of the rebellion and of tho principles of its leaders, which wo have so often heretofore sot forth to our readers,-but which cannot be urged too strongly or repeated too frequautly. Theso intelligent workingmon ia " New York see that this war ia a conflict between a spurious aristocracy and a genino democracy; that it is a war of an oligarchy against the people; that it is not merely a war inaugurated in the dofence of negro slavery, but that it is in its essential nature a war against tl o freedom and the rights of laborers, white as wellas black. And the question to be decided at this coming election is whether the people, the true democracy, will yield to tho de nianda of the insolent but almost exhausted aristocracy of the South, or whother they will maintain and protect their own dearest rights and tho most precious inheritance of their children. The slum democratic leaders at the North, the wol ves in sheep's clothing, the Seymours, the Belmonti, the ViToods, may' use all thoir arts to deceive and confuso the masses of the people But they will succeed in misleading few, for the people is not to be blinded to truth plain as tho sun at noonday.

"''; . New York, Sept. 12, 18G4. Maj. Gen. Geo, B. McCUUan: . Sir: The distinguished position which you now hold In the presence of tho American people, as the nominee of a cou-Tcntion held in obedience touauagesof a powerful party, and looking . forward to the possibility uf your election as the executive representative of a mighty nation of freemen," impels us to address to you, as we have already done to the Prosidcnt of tho United 8tatcs, a brief exposition of onio of tho views which have induced the found.org of the Wbikingmen's Democratic Republican Association to organize for effective action in the great oanso of political, industry and social reform. There are momenta in the lives cf men which form the crisis of thoir ejliaractor and their fate. ' There are hours and days in the life of nations which ferra the orisis of their destiny. - Decisions thus mado may carry them safely past their dahpjers, or haston them on to thoir ruin and their overthrow. ! In tho oxpcricnce'of individuals and of societies there are invisible lines' which, once passed, can never be rocroiscd; and. it is sometimes a question with us whether our mice prosperous and happy nation has not already passed that equatorial line of its moral hiiftory which, unnoticed and unobserved by the naviga-tors, has served to separate lis from the higher and bolter paralclls of patriotism, reason and exaltod freedom. We trust that this point of our history has not already been passed, but that we may yet hope for tho triumph of thoce lofty principles of Political virtuo which have so lone; been our boost. , . ' ': ' Ths glory of our institutions has ever been, that all questions of public policy could be referred to the pooplo, whose decision constitutionally cxpreesod at tho ballot-box, should be the ultimate verdiot of this grand court of appeal, until, theae ?ueHtions could have a rehearing and a urther decision at the period named in .the origanio law. Thii glory ha been dimmed-Mhis practioo, under which the nation has advsoced from the eondition of a few detached colonics to tho magni-Gcient and colossal grandeur of thirty-four slates, spanning a continont !n its territorial greatness, has been suddenly and violently interrupted. Tho appeal hns been made from the ballot-box and the forum to the bnllet and the battle-field'. This appaalto the bloody arbitration of wt Biust be met by tii loVott f out fa .. ... (r l ! 1-.' ':' '4 institutions bb freemen only cu meot it. To surrender tho character, honor and glory of our common inhoritanco to tho violent attempt of traitors, without an effort of resistance, would be no less bane and infamous than the treason itself. If tho possible foundation of a freo domocra-tio government of the pooplo wero deemed worthy of the blood and treasure of our fathers, far moro worthy of our eacrilico is the perpetuity of these institutions, rendered eacred by eighty years of pro gress and of poaco. The day swiftly approaches when the millions of tho loyal states who have re uiaincd true to the Constitution shall bo callad to decide upon the fundamental ideas of their future policy. Ou one hand a large body pf tho people deolare in fuvot of such & prosecution of tho war as shall destroy the military power of the rebel leaders and vindicate the grand idea of national unity by enforcing the laws, and compelling the insurgents to submit in peace to tlo adjudications of all questions at isiuo before the tribunal of the nation's judgment aud its constitutional expound ers. , On the other hand there is arrayed a large body of men, who demand that the govoanmcnt shall rocode from its right to defend itself, that it shall recall its forces from the field, surrender the territory it hits occupied, recall its fleets from tbe harbors ot revolted cities; and having thus vacated all that it has gained under such great difficulties, that it shall .proceod to negotiate with the representative men of tliu rcbollion. as the recognized authorities of an independent Confederacy, in the hope of an ultimate reconstruction of the Union. This body of men infused so much of their spirit and policy into the declara tions of the Convention which has named you for its rejresentative as to secure tho adoption ot the tallowing: "Jic.iolvcd, That this Convention does explicitly declare, as the sense of tho American people, that, after four years of failure to restoro the Union by the ex periment of war, during which, under the pretence of a military necessity of a wir power higher than the constitution, the constitution itself has been disregarded in every part, and public liberty and prii vate right alike trodden djwo, and the material prosperity of the country cssen tially impaired, justice, humanity, liberty . .1 II- IK I 1.1 . . N ana tno puDiic weiiaro aomana mac immediate effurts be made for a cessation of hostilities, with a-view tj,an ultimate convention of all tho states,'-or other peace able means to the end that at the earliest prasticable moment poaco may be restorod on tho basis of the federal Union of the ftates." ; -l. r - ' ': '. --, ' The central idea of the platform of principles thus announced is contained in the proposition for "a cessation of hostilities," which involves tho evacuation of all the states and territories now reeovei td from the control of the rebel authority, end the attempt at negotiation with the leaders. The circumstances of tho conflict give rise to the question, Would a eessation of hostilities on the part ol the federal gov ernment be right! and this question im mediately givcB rise to another, What is the oause of tho war? Iat (hit question be fairly answered, and the whole case may bo easily docided. We propose to view the question from a praotical and common sonse standpoint as workingmen, uniuuuenced by the peculiar ideas or teachings of any class of leaders., The interests of workingmen, as a class, are at stake in this conflict, and we shall appeal to a few of tho leading exponents of southern1 ideas and interests in order to define our position. We hold that the present war is a war of centralization and aristocracy against the rights and interests ol the masses. It is a war of capital against labor, in the form of land and slaved, against labor find freemen. That this is the truth we illustrate by quoting a writer in De. Bow's Review, which was tho philosophical teacher of southern economy, and tho advoeato of southern interests and institutions. The writer uses the following: , , 'Our , first , proposition in, that land monopoly (or to express our idea moro comprehensively and accurately, that the power excroiscd by capital over labors, begets and sustains cultivation. 7 , "Our second: ThU property in human labor (which is . property in man) iV tin only property. . ' Our Third: That the white race is the true and best slave race:. :( -.' ' "To say :the white race' is not the true and best slave raco is to contradict -all history, and in effect to arscrt that there is some superior race; for tho race that is most social, tamo, domestic, skilful edeua-tablo, and most readily subniita to government in all its usual forms,is certainly the highest race. Nine-tonthsof government is slavery, cveniu so-called free sooieiies. Married womon, children, sailors, wards, apprentices, 4e.,arc not governed bylaw but by the will of superiors thoir persons are enslaved." ,i.. . The writer bore not only justifies the slavery of the black man, but enters into a labored argument to prove that the vhite race Ji the true and best slave ract. Thepe . doctrines were. not uttered by an irresponsible or obscure author but were published in the leading economical and commercial magazine of the South,' Hud their wholo teachings were frequently reiterated and enforced by other contributors Ihej may, therefore, he regarded as a fvr expression of the philosophical system of the leaders of tno rebellion. Another writer in the same work speaks as follows: " ' " ' 1 ' "The real cultivation of a country is id its aristocracy. The mimes aro mould ed into loldiers and artisans by intelW, just as mutter and the elements of nature are made into telegraphs and stoam en ginc. The poor, who fahor ,all dav, are too tired at night lo stndy books. J If you nvike them learned they soon forgetaU thai it ndcessary id tbo comruon transactions iflifo. ..To make an aristocrat in the fu ture, we m Oat Sacrifice a thouiand, paui tors. lot we would by U wcam nuk f. t,i ,f -. .. e ,. a v. H them make them pormanent, too, by laws of entail and primogeniture. Tho right to govern resides in a small minor" Ity; the duty to obey is inherent in the groat masses of mankind. All government begins with usurpation, and is continued by force. There is nothing to which the South entertains so great a dislike as universal suffrage. Wherever foreigners settle together in lurge numbers, there universal suffrage will exist." This part of tho systom follows legitimately upon the other. Hence, if the whito rnoo be tho best and truest slave raco, and aristocracy the only true index nf cultivation, it must follow that aristocracy way subduo tho white men to slav ery. This will first be done by laws of "entail and primogeniture, the) very forms of Old World aristocracy which millions of foreigners seek to avoid under the freo institutions nf our American Union. Will the democratio workingmen of the country, 86 many of whom have come lioro to escape lroni the oppression of the Old World institutions, vote for a party that will directly or indirectly trans plant and erect these same institutions on tho ruins of popular liberty? The language quoted corresponds with that of John C. Calhoun, who said: "That we are esson tially aristocratic, I cannot deny, hut we can and do yield much to democracy. This is our sectional policy; we are from necessity thrown upon and solemnly wedded to that party, howovcr it may occassionally clash with our feelings, for the consummation of our interests, it is through our affiliation with that party in the Middlo and Western States that we hold power, but when we cease thus to control this nation, through a disjointed democracy, or any material obstacle in that party which shall tend to throw us out of that rule and con. trol, we shall then resort to tbe dissolu-tionof the Union." It may be urged that these witnesses are inappropriato because they spoke some years ago, and the present actors are not responsible for their views. IJut this objection is invalid, because the whole course of training, politics, and even religious teaching, have been forced by the leaders into this channel for mnnv vears. It is the southern idea by which we. mean the idea of those fow master spirits who, in obedience to their own system, that a minority bIiouIJ rule, have obtained such complete mastiry over the people. This southern idea of an aristocracy and an oligarchy is how in conflict with the northern idea of democratic- institutions and . popular rights. To illustrate this faot by the testimony of a rocent witness, and one who may he said to speak almost by authority, we ask you to consider the following doclarations,conta ined in an rr-tiolo published in the Southern Literary Messenger, a leading literary magazine, issued in ITcbtnond, and bearing date January, 1803. The writer, in an article entitled "The Groat Danger of tho Confederacy," remarks as follows: ' ( ., That bonign institution of slavery, which is now the pride and glory of tho South to ascribe to the conception of Divinity, and which this war has proven to bo, next to the devoted patriotism and undaunted resolutions of her sons, the great element of powor in the Confederacy, will prove, in preventing too heavy an influx l'reui foreign shores of that class of population devoted to menial pursuit?, another bulwark against tho encroachment ofthoso tendencies to democraey which have been tho Pandora's box of disiote-gratisn and ruins to all republics." ' In this passage we havo a singularly comprehensive summing up of the whole controversy, together with the assurance that the South is to be practically closed, as far js possible, against the introduction of foreigners. , Is it not an arrogant as sumption that so vast a territory as these leaders claim, amounting to one million and a half of square miles fifty times as largo as Ireland and four times as large as the whole of France and Germany united should be olosed to the workingmen of tbo world, who would delve in its mines, bridge its rivers and arch its mountain peaks with the boldness and creativo genius of thoir freo laber? Yet, says this writer: , -.- . ,1 "Let us seek at once to-eradicate every vestige of radical democracy, every feature tending to make ours a populargovernment,- making it subjoct only to the intelligent and virtuous, and those who are interested in its successful administration." , . . . ... What, wo may aslj our adopted fellow-citizens, is to be the policy of tho leaders toward- those foreigners who may possibly find a homo in the Confederacy? Let this author, , whose ink is scarcely dry, answer the question: ( , ( ., . v. ;,No foreigner who' comes among as aftci the struggle is over should ever en joy tho elootive franchise, i If.Walcannot chock the spread over, our ;terntpry ,ol that spawn of ignorance and orimo,. which flows iu endless issue from the prison and dens of corruption in the mart of Europe, We can ai least shut out its cankering effects from the vitals of our body : . , , Will the .handrcds of , thousands of men wlio havb landed on, our, shoros to seek tho privileges and blessing, of dem-eratio government, blindly vote for a party which tells them in advance that they are to be denied tho immunities of citi-zenship, and that the avenues of progress aro to be shut against them? To use the emphatic declaration of the same writer, in a siogle sentence, we hold it to be true, as tin witness tells us, that " Tli South is neap engaged in a death struggle with a radical democracy." ' We aoccpt the trsua reluctantly, and with heavy hearts that we must; bat for the imko of freedom, for hanunit v,,' and fur tho worldand ffp declaro that, out nation is novr engaged in at death trugl( ef deiuosracy against aristocracy and de spotism.' We shall stand by" ihe govern. tnent, and by the Uaifln', and shall willing, lyeee all thoir enemies overthrown,wheth er foieipn or donwtiCj and whether tbi-j be XwB'.onio J coSimwions or oeeuimt institutions. We hove little fuith in "the domooratio nartv ot tho poliliciaas," but we have an abiding faith in "the democratio party of the people. Let us call your attention to the resolutions appended hereto, which havo been acted upon by our Executive Committee, and also to the publications of our Association herewith submitted, , ' Not to prolong this letter by'any allu-sionstoothot topics of interest and impor-tanoe wo beg to submit to you several questions, an answei to which will remove .i s i. .Tn si. ... : .1 . ine QOUUI8 Still remaiuiu iu mt wiuiu of many as to your views: 1. If you aro elected President will you consider yourself to be the President of the American Union in its territorial extent as it existed before the first ordinance of secession ? . ' 2. Will you, as President of the United States, adopt the most vigorous measures against foreign and domestio enemies ? 8. Should you bo elcofed President,. and the States of Now York and Ohio should thereupon recede from tho Union by the act of a portion of thoir citizens, will you deem them to be public enemies. and proceed against them with all the resources at your command ? 4. Do you consider , the American Union a political organization from which any one or more of the States may rctiro at pleasure? n 6. Will you, as President, take immediate steps for "a eessation of hostilities," by a goneral suspension of all military operations against the traitors? And lastly, Mr. Davis having declared, over tho official signature of Mr. Benjamin, his Secretary of State, that he "had no authority to receive proposals for ne potiation exrept by virtue of his office as President of an independent confederacy, and on this basis alone must proposals bo made to him"-- 6. Will yon, as President, recognize the Southern Confederacy as an independent, nation, in order to take the first steps towards negotiations for peace ? ; These questions comprehend the vital iBsue before tho American pooplo. Upon their solution,, will depend the permanence of democratio liberty upon this continent, or the erection of an empire in direct antagonism to all the ideas of freedom and progress.-If elected President, you will be elect ed by tho votes of nearly a million of 1? "! it.' I. .1.. Iff J workingmen. on meir ueimn, nun, uu our own, we respectfully ask a clear and dceided answer to these inquiries. There are times when the Christian statesman and the Christian soldier ran show a moral heroism that becomes sublime on tin page of history. k The day is not past when new examples are needed for the teaching of men greater lessons .than can be taught by the conflicting views of partisans, and the ambitions ot less exalted meq than yourself. We have-the honor to bo, dear sir, your obediflnt servants, John J. Uet.v, President. Wm. B. lAYton, Reo. Seo. " Wm. OiiAND Bourne, Cor. Sec. CnAs. II. IIouseley, Treasurer. A Nice Specimen of Democracy. A wr:ter of the Ohio State Journal, in a reeont letter from New York City, thus draws tho portrait of Mr. Belmont, the agent of the Rothchtlds, and the Ch'm. of tho Demboratio Central Committee. fie is a nico Rpocimen of a democrat. How the farmers and laborers of the country must delight to follow surA a man. How they must rejoice that such a nice fpeciman of,a democrat is their leader! But read about tho aristocrat: Aucu3t Belmont, the leader of tho par ty in this city, and Chairman of the national Commiteo,' is beyond doubt, the greatest aristocrat on this side of tho At lantia. He resides in. the Fifth Avonue the locality in which all the aristocracy of the city are gathered. His houso is valuod at 150 thousand dollars, and his furniture at 45 to 950,000 Toe pioture gallery alone iBctimated to have cost over a quarter of a million of dollars. . His servants are all regularly equipped in the European style of livorly, imported ex pressly for the purpose. When he rides out, his mtgnificcnt equipage is accompanied by outsiders, postillious, and liveried setvanw, such as one would expect to see if he were in raris and the Empe ror was approaching. In aaaitionto his magnificent residence on tbe lulth Ave nue, he has a summer residence at .Newport, where he spends a part of each soa son. A carresponuontottheiweiiiriiii ost writing from that fashionable watering place in Aigust last, thus describes the turn-out" , of the democratic Chairman, Mr. August ijeltnont. ... ,'., - The equipage that throws alt others id the shade, and causes them to "pale their ineffectual fire," Is that of the aforemen tioned chairman of the Demoortaie Nation al Commitee. It consitsof alow barouche drawn by 4 elegant and fiery "tohrough breds," with postilions" mounted, on the loft or "near" horse of each jair. Two footmen in extcme livery are impended from, a high scat on the back of the carriage, technically callod tho "rumble." The baioucho is lined 'with rich satin damask, and the outside trimmings are of heavy gilt. ' The ptilion are dressed -t ii"i i it. . i . in duciskid Dreecncs aua i.iga top doom with black silk . velvet jackets and caps highly ornamented with, gold lace. The luon r.re peculiarly well tormcd, caving been selected and trained 1 in Europe with oflpdoial reference to their ."build.. anJthB extra size of their "calves. Then livery is imported ata eost of about $1,000 a suit, and , the coat of the whole affair Conjectured when I utito that the horses are valiwd ' at ; 125,00.0; the - carriage at $5,000, and the harness and other trupt L: . ci Ann wi. a. .n.i .n.s.. makes its appeamucs on the avenue with the Democratic prince ia, full costaoie, all , olh.r'v'iiUijliiJ iaittuctifeW titi wn',' a. though the occupant was indeed orowoed head. The stables of his Democratic majesty aro said to contain some forty horses, valued at l,O00 to ?8,000 each.,, , If the plain Democratio farmnrS, mechanics and working men of the country could have an opportunity of witnessing tho borobastifl millionaire, as he reclines in the satin damask cushions of his magnificent coach, surronnded by. footmen" outriders, postillions and laquios in livery they could form a more correct idea of what passen for Domooracy in this part of the country. There war a time when the term Democracy meant equal and exact justice to all citizens no monopoly of privileges to any classover : atiothor "opposition to all forms and ceremonies tending to aristocracy." But these times have passed, and rot find the moet pompous representative of foreign aristocracy placed at the head of tho , National Cora-mitte os a party claiming to be Democratic. Mr. Bolmont is Ihe particular and confidential friend of Geo. MoClollan.and is said to have spent nearly half a million of dollars at Chicago to secure his nomination., It is claimed that the party, of which they are leaders, is fayorabla to the rostoreiion of the Union, yet it is mat tor of history in Wall street that no man in the country has done more since the commencement of the war to derange the credit of the Government, to rleprec'ate the currency by buying up gold and &cn ding ittoEurope,antl by discouraging capitalists from investing in the public securities, thon this same Deinocraite Chairman Mr. Anguste Belmont. titpuNce or Tui: south iotv. lilt. . i Gen. John A. Logan honored through all the West as a soldier, and respected through the United States as a War De- mocrat,was in the XXXVI Congress with' J. L. M. Corry, who represented the Tilth District of Alabama. ': Logan da- scrbed him recently as "a very talented man, who, after the South seceded,, and commenced its ' armed Rebellion, Wfs cW ected a member of the Confederate Con-gress,and served there with cretit to him self, so far as a man can do so in a con gres of that kind. " . Corry returned homo from Richmond a "short time ago, and! anS, made a fpeech to his soldier felow- citizens. liegan said that he himaeil was at the time ''far down iu Dixie," and got-, ' hold of a rebol paper containing Corry's speech; and he took it out of his pocket and read to the Illinois crowd he was ad- dressing.lhe following startling corroborative testimony - to prove the treasonable-uses to which McClellan and the Peace Democracy have consented to be put. "Mr. Corry said this: 'My hearers", we - should remember that much depends upon the choico the Northern men make for a Prosidont the incoming Fall.. There; will be at least two parties represented to, wih the War party, who will doubtless make an effort, to have Lincoln retained and the Peace party, who would make a- bold effort to elect a man pledged to give tho Confederacy justice and restore peace long desired and ardently prayed for peace ' to.onr bleeding country. ' We' hope, we trust, wo pray that they may be soooesav ful. Sucb a shout as was never heard before would spread over our afflicted South. If such bo tho happy result our , independence would be forever estalishcd. BM should Lincoln be re-elected, our hopes will be dashed to the ground, onr- lndcpenuen-e out a mingareauiea my lor we have exhausted our resources, and. oculd not possibly hope to be able to con tintte tho war four years longer. Past' experience has taught us that we should' expect no favors at the hands of the in-i doraitable tyrant .and usuper, Abraham Lincoln. Lot us repose our trust in the.

Tho following letter, addressed by tbe New York Workingmen's Dcinociatio Association to General MoClellan, pre scnta in a very clear and effective manner that view of the nature of the rebellion and of tho principles of its leaders, which wo have so often heretofore sot forth to our readers,-but which cannot be urged too strongly or repeated too frequautly. Theso intelligent workingmon ia " New York see that this war ia a conflict between a spurious aristocracy and a genino democracy; that it is a war of an oligarchy against the people; that it is not merely a war inaugurated in the dofence of negro slavery, but that it is in its essential nature a war against tl o freedom and the rights of laborers, white as wellas black. And the question to be decided at this coming election is whether the people, the true democracy, will yield to tho de nianda of the insolent but almost exhausted aristocracy of the South, or whother they will maintain and protect their own dearest rights and tho most precious inheritance of their children. The slum democratic leaders at the North, the wol ves in sheep's clothing, the Seymours, the Belmonti, the ViToods, may' use all thoir arts to deceive and confuso the masses of the people But they will succeed in misleading few, for the people is not to be blinded to truth plain as tho sun at noonday.

"''; . New York, Sept. 12, 18G4. Maj. Gen. Geo, B. McCUUan: . Sir: The distinguished position which you now hold In the presence of tho American people, as the nominee of a cou-Tcntion held in obedience touauagesof a powerful party, and looking . forward to the possibility uf your election as the executive representative of a mighty nation of freemen," impels us to address to you, as we have already done to the Prosidcnt of tho United 8tatcs, a brief exposition of onio of tho views which have induced the found.org of the Wbikingmen's Democratic Republican Association to organize for effective action in the great oanso of political, industry and social reform. There are momenta in the lives cf men which form the crisis of thoir ejliaractor and their fate. ' There are hours and days in the life of nations which ferra the orisis of their destiny. - Decisions thus mado may carry them safely past their dahpjers, or haston them on to thoir ruin and their overthrow. ! In tho oxpcricnce'of individuals and of societies there are invisible lines' which, once passed, can never be rocroiscd; and. it is sometimes a question with us whether our mice prosperous and happy nation has not already passed that equatorial line of its moral hiiftory which, unnoticed and unobserved by the naviga-tors, has served to separate lis from the higher and bolter paralclls of patriotism, reason and exaltod freedom. We trust that this point of our history has not already been passed, but that we may yet hope for tho triumph of thoce lofty principles of Political virtuo which have so lone; been our boost. , . ' ': ' Ths glory of our institutions has ever been, that all questions of public policy could be referred to the pooplo, whose decision constitutionally cxpreesod at tho ballot-box, should be the ultimate verdiot of this grand court of appeal, until, theae ?ueHtions could have a rehearing and a urther decision at the period named in .the origanio law. Thii glory ha been dimmed-Mhis practioo, under which the nation has advsoced from the eondition of a few detached colonics to tho magni-Gcient and colossal grandeur of thirty-four slates, spanning a continont !n its territorial greatness, has been suddenly and violently interrupted. Tho appeal hns been made from the ballot-box and the forum to the bnllet and the battle-field'. This appaalto the bloody arbitration of wt Biust be met by tii loVott f out fa .. ... (r l ! 1-.' ':' '4 institutions bb freemen only cu meot it. To surrender tho character, honor and glory of our common inhoritanco to tho violent attempt of traitors, without an effort of resistance, would be no less bane and infamous than the treason itself. If tho possible foundation of a freo domocra-tio government of the pooplo wero deemed worthy of the blood and treasure of our fathers, far moro worthy of our eacrilico is the perpetuity of these institutions, rendered eacred by eighty years of pro gress and of poaco. The day swiftly approaches when the millions of tho loyal states who have re uiaincd true to the Constitution shall bo callad to decide upon the fundamental ideas of their future policy. Ou one hand a large body pf tho people deolare in fuvot of such & prosecution of tho war as shall destroy the military power of the rebel leaders and vindicate the grand idea of national unity by enforcing the laws, and compelling the insurgents to submit in peace to tlo adjudications of all questions at isiuo before the tribunal of the nation's judgment aud its constitutional expound ers. , On the other hand there is arrayed a large body of men, who demand that the govoanmcnt shall rocode from its right to defend itself, that it shall recall its forces from the field, surrender the territory it hits occupied, recall its fleets from tbe harbors ot revolted cities; and having thus vacated all that it has gained under such great difficulties, that it shall .proceod to negotiate with the representative men of tliu rcbollion. as the recognized authorities of an independent Confederacy, in the hope of an ultimate reconstruction of the Union. This body of men infused so much of their spirit and policy into the declara tions of the Convention which has named you for its rejresentative as to secure tho adoption ot the tallowing: "Jic.iolvcd, That this Convention does explicitly declare, as the sense of tho American people, that, after four years of failure to restoro the Union by the ex periment of war, during which, under the pretence of a military necessity of a wir power higher than the constitution, the constitution itself has been disregarded in every part, and public liberty and prii vate right alike trodden djwo, and the material prosperity of the country cssen tially impaired, justice, humanity, liberty . .1 II- IK I 1.1 . . N ana tno puDiic weiiaro aomana mac immediate effurts be made for a cessation of hostilities, with a-view tj,an ultimate convention of all tho states,'-or other peace able means to the end that at the earliest prasticable moment poaco may be restorod on tho basis of the federal Union of the ftates." ; -l. r - ' ': '. --, ' The central idea of the platform of principles thus announced is contained in the proposition for "a cessation of hostilities," which involves tho evacuation of all the states and territories now reeovei td from the control of the rebel authority, end the attempt at negotiation with the leaders. The circumstances of tho conflict give rise to the question, Would a eessation of hostilities on the part ol the federal gov ernment be right! and this question im mediately givcB rise to another, What is the oause of tho war? Iat (hit question be fairly answered, and the whole case may bo easily docided. We propose to view the question from a praotical and common sonse standpoint as workingmen, uniuuuenced by the peculiar ideas or teachings of any class of leaders., The interests of workingmen, as a class, are at stake in this conflict, and we shall appeal to a few of tho leading exponents of southern1 ideas and interests in order to define our position. We hold that the present war is a war of centralization and aristocracy against the rights and interests ol the masses. It is a war of capital against labor, in the form of land and slaved, against labor find freemen. That this is the truth we illustrate by quoting a writer in De. Bow's Review, which was tho philosophical teacher of southern economy, and tho advoeato of southern interests and institutions. The writer uses the following: , , 'Our , first , proposition in, that land monopoly (or to express our idea moro comprehensively and accurately, that the power excroiscd by capital over labors, begets and sustains cultivation. 7 , "Our second: ThU property in human labor (which is . property in man) iV tin only property. . ' Our Third: That the white race is the true and best slave race:. :( -.' ' "To say :the white race' is not the true and best slave raco is to contradict -all history, and in effect to arscrt that there is some superior race; for tho race that is most social, tamo, domestic, skilful edeua-tablo, and most readily subniita to government in all its usual forms,is certainly the highest race. Nine-tonthsof government is slavery, cveniu so-called free sooieiies. Married womon, children, sailors, wards, apprentices, 4e.,arc not governed bylaw but by the will of superiors thoir persons are enslaved." ,i.. . The writer bore not only justifies the slavery of the black man, but enters into a labored argument to prove that the vhite race Ji the true and best slave ract. Thepe . doctrines were. not uttered by an irresponsible or obscure author but were published in the leading economical and commercial magazine of the South,' Hud their wholo teachings were frequently reiterated and enforced by other contributors Ihej may, therefore, he regarded as a fvr expression of the philosophical system of the leaders of tno rebellion. Another writer in the same work speaks as follows: " ' " ' 1 ' "The real cultivation of a country is id its aristocracy. The mimes aro mould ed into loldiers and artisans by intelW, just as mutter and the elements of nature are made into telegraphs and stoam en ginc. The poor, who fahor ,all dav, are too tired at night lo stndy books. J If you nvike them learned they soon forgetaU thai it ndcessary id tbo comruon transactions iflifo. ..To make an aristocrat in the fu ture, we m Oat Sacrifice a thouiand, paui tors. lot we would by U wcam nuk f. t,i ,f -. .. e ,. a v. H them make them pormanent, too, by laws of entail and primogeniture. Tho right to govern resides in a small minor" Ity; the duty to obey is inherent in the groat masses of mankind. All government begins with usurpation, and is continued by force. There is nothing to which the South entertains so great a dislike as universal suffrage. Wherever foreigners settle together in lurge numbers, there universal suffrage will exist." This part of tho systom follows legitimately upon the other. Hence, if the whito rnoo be tho best and truest slave raco, and aristocracy the only true index nf cultivation, it must follow that aristocracy way subduo tho white men to slav ery. This will first be done by laws of "entail and primogeniture, the) very forms of Old World aristocracy which millions of foreigners seek to avoid under the freo institutions nf our American Union. Will the democratio workingmen of the country, 86 many of whom have come lioro to escape lroni the oppression of the Old World institutions, vote for a party that will directly or indirectly trans plant and erect these same institutions on tho ruins of popular liberty? The language quoted corresponds with that of John C. Calhoun, who said: "That we are esson tially aristocratic, I cannot deny, hut we can and do yield much to democracy. This is our sectional policy; we are from necessity thrown upon and solemnly wedded to that party, howovcr it may occassionally clash with our feelings, for the consummation of our interests, it is through our affiliation with that party in the Middlo and Western States that we hold power, but when we cease thus to control this nation, through a disjointed democracy, or any material obstacle in that party which shall tend to throw us out of that rule and con. trol, we shall then resort to tbe dissolu-tionof the Union." It may be urged that these witnesses are inappropriato because they spoke some years ago, and the present actors are not responsible for their views. IJut this objection is invalid, because the whole course of training, politics, and even religious teaching, have been forced by the leaders into this channel for mnnv vears. It is the southern idea by which we. mean the idea of those fow master spirits who, in obedience to their own system, that a minority bIiouIJ rule, have obtained such complete mastiry over the people. This southern idea of an aristocracy and an oligarchy is how in conflict with the northern idea of democratic- institutions and . popular rights. To illustrate this faot by the testimony of a rocent witness, and one who may he said to speak almost by authority, we ask you to consider the following doclarations,conta ined in an rr-tiolo published in the Southern Literary Messenger, a leading literary magazine, issued in ITcbtnond, and bearing date January, 1803. The writer, in an article entitled "The Groat Danger of tho Confederacy," remarks as follows: ' ( ., That bonign institution of slavery, which is now the pride and glory of tho South to ascribe to the conception of Divinity, and which this war has proven to bo, next to the devoted patriotism and undaunted resolutions of her sons, the great element of powor in the Confederacy, will prove, in preventing too heavy an influx l'reui foreign shores of that class of population devoted to menial pursuit?, another bulwark against tho encroachment ofthoso tendencies to democraey which have been tho Pandora's box of disiote-gratisn and ruins to all republics." ' In this passage we havo a singularly comprehensive summing up of the whole controversy, together with the assurance that the South is to be practically closed, as far js possible, against the introduction of foreigners. , Is it not an arrogant as sumption that so vast a territory as these leaders claim, amounting to one million and a half of square miles fifty times as largo as Ireland and four times as large as the whole of France and Germany united should be olosed to the workingmen of tbo world, who would delve in its mines, bridge its rivers and arch its mountain peaks with the boldness and creativo genius of thoir freo laber? Yet, says this writer: , -.- . ,1 "Let us seek at once to-eradicate every vestige of radical democracy, every feature tending to make ours a populargovernment,- making it subjoct only to the intelligent and virtuous, and those who are interested in its successful administration." , . . . ... What, wo may aslj our adopted fellow-citizens, is to be the policy of tho leaders toward- those foreigners who may possibly find a homo in the Confederacy? Let this author, , whose ink is scarcely dry, answer the question: ( , ( ., . v. ;,No foreigner who' comes among as aftci the struggle is over should ever en joy tho elootive franchise, i If.Walcannot chock the spread over, our ;terntpry ,ol that spawn of ignorance and orimo,. which flows iu endless issue from the prison and dens of corruption in the mart of Europe, We can ai least shut out its cankering effects from the vitals of our body : . , , Will the .handrcds of , thousands of men wlio havb landed on, our, shoros to seek tho privileges and blessing, of dem-eratio government, blindly vote for a party which tells them in advance that they are to be denied tho immunities of citi-zenship, and that the avenues of progress aro to be shut against them? To use the emphatic declaration of the same writer, in a siogle sentence, we hold it to be true, as tin witness tells us, that " Tli South is neap engaged in a death struggle with a radical democracy." ' We aoccpt the trsua reluctantly, and with heavy hearts that we must; bat for the imko of freedom, for hanunit v,,' and fur tho worldand ffp declaro that, out nation is novr engaged in at death trugl( ef deiuosracy against aristocracy and de spotism.' We shall stand by" ihe govern. tnent, and by the Uaifln', and shall willing, lyeee all thoir enemies overthrown,wheth er foieipn or donwtiCj and whether tbi-j be XwB'.onio J coSimwions or oeeuimt institutions. We hove little fuith in "the domooratio nartv ot tho poliliciaas," but we have an abiding faith in "the democratio party of the people. Let us call your attention to the resolutions appended hereto, which havo been acted upon by our Executive Committee, and also to the publications of our Association herewith submitted, , ' Not to prolong this letter by'any allu-sionstoothot topics of interest and impor-tanoe wo beg to submit to you several questions, an answei to which will remove .i s i. .Tn si. ... : .1 . ine QOUUI8 Still remaiuiu iu mt wiuiu of many as to your views: 1. If you aro elected President will you consider yourself to be the President of the American Union in its territorial extent as it existed before the first ordinance of secession ? . ' 2. Will you, as President of the United States, adopt the most vigorous measures against foreign and domestio enemies ? 8. Should you bo elcofed President,. and the States of Now York and Ohio should thereupon recede from tho Union by the act of a portion of thoir citizens, will you deem them to be public enemies. and proceed against them with all the resources at your command ? 4. Do you consider , the American Union a political organization from which any one or more of the States may rctiro at pleasure? n 6. Will you, as President, take immediate steps for "a eessation of hostilities," by a goneral suspension of all military operations against the traitors? And lastly, Mr. Davis having declared, over tho official signature of Mr. Benjamin, his Secretary of State, that he "had no authority to receive proposals for ne potiation exrept by virtue of his office as President of an independent confederacy, and on this basis alone must proposals bo made to him"-- 6. Will yon, as President, recognize the Southern Confederacy as an independent, nation, in order to take the first steps towards negotiations for peace ? ; These questions comprehend the vital iBsue before tho American pooplo. Upon their solution,, will depend the permanence of democratio liberty upon this continent, or the erection of an empire in direct antagonism to all the ideas of freedom and progress.-If elected President, you will be elect ed by tho votes of nearly a million of 1?

There are times when the Christian statesman and the Christian soldier ran show a moral heroism that becomes sublime on tin page of history. k The day is not past when new examples are needed for the teaching of men greater lessons .than can be taught by the conflicting views of partisans, and the ambitions ot less exalted meq than yourself.

How the farmers and laborers of the country must delight to follow surA a man. How they must rejoice that such a nice fpeciman of,a democrat is their leader! But read about tho aristocrat: Aucu3t Belmont, the leader of tho par ty in this city, and Chairman of the national Commiteo,' is beyond doubt, the greatest aristocrat on this side of tho At lantia. He resides in. the Fifth Avonue the locality in which all the aristocracy of the city are gathered. His houso is valuod at 150 thousand dollars, and his furniture at 45 to 950,000 Toe pioture gallery alone iBctimated to have cost over a quarter of a million of dollars. . His servants are all regularly equipped in the European style of livorly, imported ex pressly for the purpose. When he rides out, his mtgnificcnt equipage is accompanied by outsiders, postillious, and liveried setvanw, such as one would expect to see if he were in raris and the Empe ror was approaching. In aaaitionto his magnificent residence on tbe lulth Ave nue, he has a summer residence at .Newport, where he spends a part of each soa son. A carresponuontottheiweiiiriiii ost writing from that fashionable watering place in Aigust last, thus describes the turn-out" , of the democratic Chairman, Mr. August ijeltnont. ... ,'., - The equipage that throws alt others id the shade, and causes them to "pale their ineffectual fire," Is that of the aforemen tioned chairman of the Demoortaie Nation al Commitee. It consitsof alow barouche drawn by 4 elegant and fiery "tohrough breds," with postilions" mounted, on the loft or "near" horse of each jair. Two footmen in extcme livery are impended from, a high scat on the back of the carriage, technically callod tho "rumble."
