slaves. The Republicans opposed this with all their energy; b u t after it had been passed, they were disposed
to submit and did so; foreseeing that a time was coming
when they could make more effectual resistance.
To strengthen their party, nortben democratic doughfaces offered tbe slaveholders to renew slavery agitation
by repealing the Missouri Compromise, holding out the
prospcct that by so doing slavery might be extended
north and west beyond Missouri, into territory declared
forever free by that Compromise in which the slaveholders had tacitly acquired till then. After Kansas bad been
admitted, showing that there was yet power in the free
north to resist southern encrochments upon pure democratic and republican institutions, the Republicans were
again ready to drop slavery agitation for tbe sake of
peace: bat, as the Rebel Vice President Stephons said
in the Secession Convention,—•' The government of the
IJnited States had given them all, and more than all they
bad asked,'' they, tbe slaveholders, thought they could
get by threats all they wanted.
If you doubt that
the obsequeousoess of northern dough faces in Congress
and in the Presidential Chair, during Pierce and Buchanan's reign, was the most potent and direct cause that
brought on the war, then read the following from the
Louisville Courier:—" This has been called a fratricidal

isro. 4 i

of the Chicago Convention. That Convention gives a
silent approval of the rebellion itself, and an open condemnation of tbe war waged for its suppression. Without a word of censure for the conspirators who plotted
the nation's death, it brands with nnspairing denunciation the patriots and heroes who defeca its life. While s—
it passes in utter silence the eigantic usurpations of
Jefferson Davis and his confederate traitors—while it
overlooks entirely, and thus, by jnst and necossaay inference, approves their aborgation of political rights and
personal liberties over all that portion of the United
States in which they have been able thus far to sustain
their usurpered authority, it pours out its wrath, without stint or measure, upon every act by which the Constitutional President of the United States has sought to
defend aud protect tbe life and liberties of the nation,
whose executive po"wer is placed in his bands.
The Convention had no words of exultation for our
victories; no thanks and honors for the soldiers and sailors who have shed their blood to acheivc them. While
it deuounccs our Government for neglect of duty toward
our '• fcllow-citizens who are now, and lonp have been,
prisoners of war in a suffering condition," it has not even
a sylable of censure for those rebel authorities who. witn
than savage cruelty, and in utter disregard of
every dictate of humanity, as well as of every usage of
civilized warfare, have deliberatly and with sympathetic
purpose, inflicted upon those prisoners all the tortures
of exposure, of neglect and starvation, and have f-ffered
premiums for their murder to the brutal guards to whose
grim custody they have been consigned. And, on the
very eve of the most glorious victories that have ever
crowued our arms—after three years of bloody, costly
and successful war, when three-fourths of the territory
originally held by the rebels bos passed into our hands;
at the very moment when tho rebellion itself is tottering
to its fall, and the flag of our couutry is rapidly advancing to its old supremacy, the party represented at Chi*
cago demands that " immediate efforts be made for a cessation of hostilities "—a step which would instantly arrest our conqueriug armies and snatch from them the
glories of a fiual triumph, repeal the blockade, ond throw
the whole rebel frontier open to \ b e supplies they so
sorely need, secure the recognitionof foreign powers, and
either accomplish fheir independence or give them ability to fight for it four years longer.
W e appeal to the people of tne ^United States—lovers
of the Union and friends of freedom-—agaiust |(heconsummation of the foufcrime ajpinst both, which the acts
and declarations of the Chicago Convention 'involve.
W e iovoke them not to sanction these principles and
sentiments by electing the candidates put forward to represent them. W e implore them, as they love their
country, as they seek the renewed integrity of its territory, as they desire the peaceful protection of its , flag
and the blessings of its free institutions and its equal
laws for themselves and their posterity, not to arrest tbe
blow which is just ready to descend upon tbe rebellion
now totering to its fall; not to give the rebels time to renew their strength for fresh conflicts; not to aid those
who would aid them in overthrowing onr Government, in
destroying our Union, in plunging into a chaos of anarchy
the communities of which the Constitution makes one
great and glorions nation, and in thus extinguishing, finally and forever, tho hopes of all who have faith in Freedom and the Rights of man.
W e call upon the people to bear in mind that, by
whatever sophistries they may cloak their purposes, the
Chicago Convention neither condemns the action of tho
Richmond rebels, nor proposes to expel them against
their will, or by. an exercise of force, from the seats of
power they have usurped. In all essential respects, the
action that Convention took accords with the results the
rebels sock. Both desire a cessation of hostilities. Both,
denounce, with unsparing bitterness, the Government of
the United States, and both alike seek its overthrow.
Both demand that the attempt to conquer armed rebellion by force of arms shall be abandoned. And both demand "that wbeti the Government of Fhe United States
shall have passed into the hands of men opposed to an
armed defeuse of the Government against rebellion, the
war shall end by peaceful conference of these allied
powers. What more thiin this could the rebels ask or
need for tho consummation of all their plans ? W e call
upon the people to bear in mind that if thtiy elect tho
candidates of the Chicago Cqpvention, they arrest the
Government in the execution ofits plans andpurposcson
the very eve of their fulfillment and one-third of a vear
before any new Administration can take its place. The
interval will be one of hope and confidence for the rebels;
and of exultation for their allies in tbe loyal States. In
tho Western States armed preparations have already
been made by the disciples and advocates of secession, to
follow the example of ttie South, and sever the West
frorrf the Federal Union. The success of the Chicago
programme in November will be the signal for carrying
these designs into execution, and the 4tb of March will

T h e Great Victory.
The news from the scat of war is most cheering. Sheridan has gained two great victories over the rebels in the
Shenandoah Valley, 4>od the proud army of Early is
shattered, broken, and reduced .to a mere mob. The
powor an3 strength of Rebeldfl& have doparted forever.
Richmond and Petersburg will soon be ours. This is
inevitable, an<f with their fall the Rebellion will be
. crushed and the war ended. Who, in the face of these
grpat victories, will dare to prate about the inability of
the Government to sustain itself against Rebellion and to
conquer a peace T Who asks for an armistice now ?
T h e Terrible Accident on the Pennsylvania Central.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept 21.
The dispatch announcing a very serious accident on
the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, is not so complete in
its details as a statement made to us by Mr. L. Converse,
of Bucyrfks, Ohio, who was on the train and escaped
without injury. The train »left Pittsburg at 9 o'clock
on Wednesday night, and at 4 A. M. ran into a freight
train, demolishing the engine and forcing the baggage
car on top of thp first passenger car, which immediately
caught fire. Our informant states that the foremost ca&
in which the loss was greatest, would contain sixty ptiaengers, and but seven or eight are kaown to have escaped.
' The doors of the car were locked.
The car
crowded and partly covered with the wreck of the baggage wagon. Coals from the locomotive fired the baggage car which communicated to the passenger car and
caused the explosion of the gas receiver. The car was
burned up with all on board, so that only the charred
remains c<tald be found, which were beyond identificatiou. Thaconductor was recognised by his keys. Six
or seven who still lived when Mr. Converse left, were in
such physical agony, nothing could bo gained from them.
Thepassenee rs in the 3d and 4th cars were saved withoufinjury, but tho cars themselves wcrc-^jumcd. Mr.
Couverse thinks the lives might hare been saved if the
doors had not been locked. The passengers to the number of 86 subscribed to a statement to that effect.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.
The Army and navy Journal, of last week, says:
" W e know that the Lieutenant General believes be has
the enemy in his grasp, W e do not speak from idle rumors or from conjecture founded on sacculations upon
his movments. Whatever "momeiitary clash of despondency may have crossed him once has gone.''
Commander Carter, of the U. S. steamer Michigan,
has telegraphed to the Secetary of the Navy, dating off
Johnson's Island, concerning,the capture by pirates of
the steamers Philo Parsons and Island Queen. He nys
they were pursued by him, agd that he has got the principal agent a prisoner on board, and many accomplices.
Ho adds all is well and safe at present. The object was
to capture the steamer Michigan. It further appears that

umcnts and Dfewspapers containing just and forcible expositions of the meri ts of onr cause; to combat by assemblages, of the peoptfio public meets, by public speeches,
Vbr conversation, by letters and personal appeals, and in
aJUust and proper modes, the deceptive and perilous
sophistries of toe agents and polificaTkllies of the rebellion. Let them be on their gaard against the arts of
corruption and of intrigue whtyh will be brought with
unscrupulous desperation, to bear upon them. The rebel government, and those foreign powers most deeply interested it) our destruction, could well afford to expend
millions in overthrowing this administration, and placing
in power the nominees and representative of the Chicago
Convention.
The skies are bright and full of promise. The * lion
hearted citizen soldiers of tho Republic march with
steady step aztd unfaltering pnxpoej to a speedy and glorious victory. Thejheart of the people beats true to the
Union. Every triumph of the Union arms over 'rebel
troops arouses afresh the courage and confidence \ of tho
Union men, and chills the hearts and decimates the ranks
of the submission secessionists represented atjCnicugo.
A Union victofy in November will end the long and la' borious strife. I t will paralyze the arm of the rebellion.
I t will disperse its armies, destroy the hope by which
the despotism at Richmond now holds its subjects in
bondage, release the people of the Southern States from
their enforced disloyalty, and give 'them again the blessings of self-government within the Unoin and -under the
protecting Constitution and flag of the UoiteB States.—
I t will enable our own government to exchange the weapons of war for the councils of peace, to rehurthe stern control over public actions and public speech,'which a state
of war renders unavoidable to restore our financial eystem, to dissolve all military courts, and hand over again
to the civil tribunals of justice the punishment of crime
and the preservation of public order, and to restore to
. their firesides and their homes, clothed with honors, and
to bo held in everlasting remembrance, that great army
' of our citizen soldiers who have bared their breasts
against armed rebellion, and won tho imperishable renown of saving the glorious Union, for which their lathers and their brothers died.

INSECTS AS FOOD.—In Africa they eat ants—stewed in
batter. In Sweden they distil them with rye to give a
peculicar flavor to brandy. Pressed eggs yield n mixture resembling chocolate with milk, of which the chemical composition really resembies that of milk. The large
termites, or white ants, which are so destructive to
houses and furniture, are rosted by the Africans in iron
pots, and eaten by haudfulls, as sugar plumn. They are
said to be very nurishing and , to taste like sugared
cream or sweet almond paste. As for locusts, " the Africans" says Dr. Phipson, " far from dreading their invasions, load upotwi dense cloud of locusts aS we should
upon so much bread and butter in the air. They smoke
them, or salt them, or boil them, or stew them, or grind
them down as corn and get fat on them.
POVERTY A RELATIVE '6ERM.—Bnlwer say that jjovertv
is only an idea in nine cases out often. Some men with
ten thousand dollars a year suffer more from want of
means than others with three hundred. The reason is
tho richer man has artificicl wants. His income is ten
thousand and he suffers enough from being dunned for
unpaid debts to kill a senstivc man. A man who earns
two dollars a day and does not run in debt iv tho happier
of tho two. Verv few peoplo who have never been rich
will believe this, but is as true as God's word. .There
are popple, of course, who are wealthy, and who enjoy
their wealth; but there are thousands upon thousands
who never know a moment's peace, because they livp
above their meau3. There Is really more happiness in
the world among working people than amoug those who
are called rich.

I t is believed that no securities offer so great inducements
to lenders as tho various descriptions of U. S Bonds. Inall
other forms of Indebtedness, the faith or ability of private
parties or stock cofiipanics or scperate communities only is
pledged for paymint, while for the debts of the United States
the whole property of the country is holdeu to sccurc the
payment of both principal and interest in coin.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in sums from $50 up
to any magnitude, on the same terms, and arc thus made
equally available to the smallest lender and the largest capitalist They can be converted into money at any moment,
and the holder will have the benefit of the interest
The Funded Debt of the United States on which interest
is payable In gold, on the 3d day of March, 1804, was S7G890.0,000. The interest on this debt for tho coming fiscal
year will bo $15,937,126, while the customs revenue in gold
for the current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1SC4. has been
so far at the rate of over $100,000,000 per annum.
It will be seen that even the pfe«nt gold revenues of the
Government are largely in excess of the wants of tho Treasury for the payment of tho gold interest while the recent
increase of the tariff will doubtless raise the annual receipt
from customs on the same amount of importations, to $150,000,000 per annum.
The authorized amount of thip loan is Two Hundred Million Dollars. Instruciions to the National Banks acting as

Do not use the drops when forbidden in the directions,
for although a positive cure, and harmless at all other times,
they'are so powerful and finely calculated to adjust and go*

proper times, they would produce results contrary to nature,
against which all, particularly those who would reproduce,
should carefully guard.

that a thousand bottles will be used for a good purpose where
