It wa a party plattorm und itothing more. . The jrreatest difficulty in our prevent trial has been tin: division in the North. In this con, nee lion he produced a Richmond, Virginia paper conUining Darn's rpeeeh before the tli t.f January Convention, and commented evciely upon the tlevlaration therein that the surrender of Maeon ni'tH Ölidell wat a greater humiliation than wouid be the reconiiion on the part of our Corerninmt of the Southern Confederacy.

He was compelled to proceed, and he npj r,jvil every sentiment Senator Wright had utleied. He had enunciated the whole truth when he said we had now to contend lor a Government, a country and for liberty. He pitied the man w ho had not a puisitiou in his heart for his country in this her extiemity. Men .struggling lor r-ouie altry advantage in county or State politic forgot . their country, forgot our brave soldiers on the battle field, forgot everything

dear to man, lorgot even their God. This Government was now on trial ami it would come out acquitted. Stronger than ev er would le our free Government when thi war clo.-es. Other Gov terntnents had gote through the same ordeal. Never lor a moment had he rcrmitted himself to

He believed the trugg!c was drawing to a clor-e. The backbone of Setes.-iuii was broken. Despondency, de-pair had seized upon the Southern heart. The surrender of Fort Donelsou was the most cowardly urrender in the history of civilized warfare. If th at lort h id been deietided as we defended Sumter, it could nut have been taken for months. For the leadeis of the traitors iu armed rebel lion ngaint the Government there should he no mercy.

Never fof a moment, he repented, hail he per mitted him-elf tu doubt the ultimate triumph of the Union arms. What should be the condition of the rebel States when they came back was a question he would hot now discuss. Our Government over them would be re-torcd. but deep m-;iis would be left. To restore that Government, benign over all, we nui-t forget our individual interests, our party interests, our old ntliliations. lie had appointed Governor Wright United States Senator because he believed he was patriotic und would discharge his duty. In this crisis a man must be on one side or the other. He must be in favor of a vigorous prosecution of the war, or surrender to the relels.ant ignominious compromise. Loyal men said no compromise hould be made, but that the Constitution, the Union and the Government should be in tint. lined. Talk about taxes! Talk about the cost of this war! If it took one thousand millions of dollars to maintain thi Government, it would be the very be.-t investment the American people could make. - - We have not space to follow Gov. Morton further.

We find the following condtn-ed reort of the speech of Hon. D. W. Voohueis, delivered in the House of Representative on Thursday last, in the New Votk Tnlune of Friday. We will give the ttrbutim report of his peech as soon as it comes to hand: Mr. Vooihees (Union Ind.) argued that this Union" will be restored by and through the in sti utnentahty of the Constitution, and a strict

We must ndhete to the Union as our Fathers made it, and not a carncioin po!i tii ians w ould determine. Mr. Vooi hees quoted liom Fiesident Lincoln's inaugural addie-s and message to show that the latter had sitd that he neither h-ul the wer nor the inclination to i:itcrleie with lavery in the States, and that he would execute the fugitive slave law.

Let us show to our fellow citiens in these States that we come merely to crush out rebellion and to restore to them peace and the benefit of the Constitution and the Union, of which they have been deprived tiy their selfish and unprincipled leaders. They have been told that we come to onpres and plunder. Hy oar acts we will undeceive them; we will prjte to them that we come to re stoie, ii't to violate, the Constitution aiid laws. In restoring to them the Hag of the Union, we will assure them that they shall enjoy under its foiiLs the same protection of life and property as in former days. Soldiers, let no excess on your part tarnish the glory of our arms. The orders heretofore issued in thir! department in tegard to pillaging, marauding, the destruction of private property and steal

ing, and the concealment ot slaves, must be strictly enforce!. It does not belong to the military to decide upon the relation ol master and slate. Such questions must be ettlel-by civil courts. No fugitive slave will therefore be admitted within our lines or camps, except when esjecially ordered by the Generai commanding. Women, children, merchants, fanner, mechanics, and all jersons not in arms, are regarded a iion eombat ants, and are not to be molested iu their perons or projttrty. If, however, they aid and assist the enemy, they become belligerents, and will be treated äs such. If they violate the I iws of war, they will l made to sulfer the jicnalties of such violation. Military stores and public proj erty of the enemy mu-the surrendered, and a y attempt to conceal such property by fraudulent transfer or other vvi.-e, will be punished; hut no private property will be touched unless by order of the General commanding. Wherever it become necessary to levy forced contributions for the supply and subsistenceof our troops, .such levies will be made a light as possible, atid be so distributed as to produce no distress among the people.

They have not vet' disco vet el them. The bugbear -tory t!i it he had superseded Gcr.cral McC.eilan as Commander indict" w as raised and circulated in order to Hatter his vanity. Hut the Secietarv t f Warwasabove the mean trick, and scornel the miserable artifice, i The Abolit.onists have now inserted in the new Contiiient il Magazine a rigmarole of the most ! radical "Addition utterances," which thev at- i tt it Kite to Mr. Stanton.

I need not teil you hv much rejoicing there is ! in Washington over the recent vn toiies at Ro- i anoLe. at Fort Henry and at Fort D,.i.el-on. As the plans of Gen. McCIellan fcr the conduct ofi the war thus develop themselves, his enemies heie hide their hi-leu I.eoJs, and hold their; luiked tongues. Every one now admits that his j plans cd' m i--'t;g superior forces on the enemy j were wiser than that blind rage wLich would: have hurled a few regiment at a time against vastlT uperior strength. There will rrotaolr be i

no more said about deposing him from hia office i

of Commander in Ch'ef. There are some here who think that because we have taken Fort iVmelson, ith three (Jener!s and fifteen tlsHis ind prisoners, therefore the war is over. Hut it will le a fatal mi-take to act on such a belief. The effect of the-e victories abroad w ill t-e to deter Fmnce atid England

from interfering actively in favor ef the S"uth, : and from reeognirng them as an imleperslent nvtion. The South will v err soon see this, and it i

will lead them to rel r more on themelve and less on foreign aid. Rut intelligence from Rich

It must te remembered that the mall arms lost at Fort D nelon will be replaced by the 15.000 ?t.nd of arm received a few lata ago at J!few Or i eins lr a e-el which

ran the blockade. The Sinthern lea-lers warned j

the Southern i-eople, some time ago, that they n-nt eipect TTTer-e. and tint; if they did not ri-e sutsrrior to thera, thev wcte unworthy to be an iude;endent nation. It is ui re rathnial to believe that the peop'cof the South will put forth all their effort, and that the war will be fiercely contested for months, perhaps for years to come. The great successes of the Spartans in war aro-e from the fact that all their citizens were oldiers, and all their manual labor and drudgery of every kind was performed by their helot. Iu this war every able bodied nan can, if necessvry, become a soldier, while all the work on the plantations U performed by slave. Iu this connection may be mentioned a Tact of the greatest imjiort ince, at a time hen the project is seriously entertained by the Abolitionist members of Congress of emancipating the ne gn.es, and rai-ing thera to the level of white men. For miles around Fortress Monroe, the slave are practically free. Whvt u-e do they make of their freedom? There are le than four hundred of them employe! on the Fortress, and the-e comprise all who are willing to wotk. The edliecrs there testify that, to their certain knowledge, there are more than two thousand others within a few miles of the Fortress, who are too lazy and imjtroviderit to work, and who hang around the Fortress begging and steiling, but will not '0 within the lines for fear of being m öle to work. This tact shows what negroes w ithout a master aie fit for. 1. Rut thete are still some more important facts brought to light on this subject by the course pursuel by the negroes in the vicinity of Tort Royal, Hilton Head and Beaufort. On two hundred "and twenty-three plantation which have been under the protection of the Unite! States forces, there are upward of nine thousand negroes. The Government has sent down agent there to take

clnrge of them, and to collect the valuable Se 1Ishn.d cotton. The reports of these agent to the Government are now beginning to come in, and they present a sorry picture of the qu difications of the negro for freedom. Few of them can be induced to express any desire for freedom. They do not understand what all the fighting is about, but le!ieve that it w ill re-ult only in a change of masters. They cannot be persuaded to work, but hate to Se forced to do si. If left to them-elves. they idle away the whole day. If compelled to work, they labor profitably. The w hole Western country is deeply interestel in the question ol rescuing the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. '1 he recent movements of Gen. Lander have only demonstrated the fact that theie are no Confederate troops at present 0nth.1t part of the line of the road between Cumberland and Hancock. IJut a reference to the map w ill show that that part of the road lies iu the extreme north of Virginia, close to the Potomac, close to the Maryland line. It is along that part of the line of the rond from Hancock to Harper's Ferry that the rebels can most easily annoy our troops or -workmen of the railroad company. The Confederates are iu strong force at Winchester, and are determined to prevent the reconstruction of the road. The able and energetic Master of Transportation, Wm. I. Smith. E.-q , has had all the material for the reconstruction ready for months pa-f, and as soon as the rebels are driven away, the work will he commence.!, and fini-hed in thirty days. If Centret ille and the line of the I'otonnc is abandoned by the

Confederates, Gen. Jackson will retire, and the road can be opened. IJut, as long as Centreville and the line of the Roto mac are held. General Jackson will be able to prevent he reopening of the ro.nl.
