I do not tremble when 1 meet The stoutest of my foe, Tut Heaven defend me from the friend Who comes but never goes ! IJc drops into my easy chair, And asks about the news; He jeers into my manuscript , And gives his candid views; He tells me where he likes ihe line, And where he's forced to grieve; He takes the strangest liberties Butnever takes his leave ! He reads my daily paper through, Uefore I've seen a word ; He 5-canes the lyric (that I wrote) And thinks it juitc absurd; He calmly smokes my last cigar, And coolly aks lor more; He opens every tiling Le sees Except the entry door ! He talks about his fragile health, And tells me of the pains IIcüfrers from a score of ills Of which he ne'er complains; At. 1 how !k. .struggled once with Death To keep the lU-i.d.-it bay; On themes like those away he goes J3-.it never goes away 1 lie tells me of the carping words Some shallow critic wrote, And every preeijus paragraph Familiarly can o,uote. He thinks the writer did me wrong; He'd like to run him through ! He says a thousand pleasant things Rut never says Adieu .'" When'er he come-- that dreadful man Disguise it ?s 1 may, I kao-.v that like an Autumn rain, He'll last throughout tfie d.iy; In v:iu 1 ssptruk ot urgent taiks, In vain 1 si-owl ami p;ut, A frown is no extinguisher It docs not put him out !

There is .earedy a iiew.-japer left in the land that wouM risk its reputation to ilay Jy refusing; to aeeej.t the. old I'nion. jmre and .simple, for a .settlement of this war. or !y darin,; to attempt the plan of making; it renders hate the memory ofthat gdoriou tiniu- The hearts of nil the people are ye'iruing; for the jgood days of old. Men J remember the old I'nion with prnioundest love, with icsiriiig atleetion. It was the best, the purest, the most benetieent Cloverimieiit the world ever s;iw. It was like the sun among; tin; plar.ets, jdiedditig; Ii;;ht and lile among; tin; nations. The eyes ol the pour, the suffering;, the oppressed in all couiit.ie. turned to it with fervent hopr. with aspiring faitli. The people oftlie land that it jroverned were happy, and j rosj'n;us. A tLstiee reigned. Jiiln rty was j reserved, a.s it must always he, by law. and lav; was not pilling: on the neck, was ea.-y wA pleisaut to be borne, because of iilvu-ty. X liiihtary foil received the citizen, draped at midnilit fioia his. bed, as in lN'Iaiid and Hussia and other countries thai might In; ranic-d. 2s'o fugitive from the e'uteh ot ,-dave trading: olficials in the land of the inquisition was seized by armed men in secret and sent back to damp dungeons under the ilow of tropical tides. All thn land was peaeclul, every honk was full of ioy. cxeent only for those sor rows that are the lot of man. A l'osi el ol n-a-e was p'va'-hi'd In the Sunday momiii" pulpits ol ad the churches, and nowhere on the earth were there bo many houses in which the inhabitants were contented, in which men lived ami died so calmly and hopefully as in the old Union of the American States. 'Hut slavery 1" says our radical friend. Young man, in what manner did slavery affect you? What was its etTect on the sum of human happiness in America ' What was its iulbieiice iri determiiiiii" the prosperity of the country' It is a good time for you tti think of these questions. Divide them, and ask first what was the effect of slavery on the Mack man, and second what was its effect on the. white man. We shall not undertake just now to guide your reflections. Think for your.clf, aud c jiii pare the condition of the slaves before the war with the condition of the freemen row, ami with the prospective condition ol the free colored race after the abolition of slavery, if it should perchance be accomplished by the war. It is not ncces.-ary to be a pro-slavery man because you decide that iustanteno.is abolition would be a curse to the black and
white, lbit mark this .solemn truth, that if Mr. Lincoln's period to the war be the actual limit, and it only ends by the "abandenment of plavcry," that end will make the war the grandest curse, instead of the imagined blessing, oil both race, black and white. This is not pro-slavery but it is philanthropy and true political encononiy. The millions of graven of miserable, .-tarved, worn-out-wretehes, who will craw l into the ground from the debasement of this sudden "freedom" with which Mr. Lincoln insists en loading them down, will be the lasting memorials of the sin of his party, aud in the judgment, the dead negroes by myriads will fi?c up to condemn him ami the false prophets and priest of the radical religion. Freedom to him who is unprepared for it is a load of chains. The Southern .slaves are more free to day, have more liberty, enjoy more of actual practic: 1 freedom by four fold than they would if the abolition scheme were accom
plished. J 'JJ-.ü do you desire to perpetuate slave-j ey '! ly no manner ot means" Ihe radical .slanderers f the political school have been in the habit of calling; every one a prosktvery muu who is opposed to t lie abolition schemes. The wi.-est and best men in the modern ;ver!d have desired to see a plan by which the system of slaveryjuiight be. annihilated, and made more like a. system ol free labor. We have labored for many years with those men. If God please we will resume those labors after this mad club of abolitionists has abandoned its folly, bcciu.se its managers are convinced of the utter futility of their efforts to heneiit the 1 lack man by sudden emancipation. For we venture the prophecy that this war will come to an end at last in ho increased oppression of the black race in this land. We have been content to remain silent while enthusiasts rejoiced over the ''death of slavery," and declared it already accomplished. It is useless to argue with such men. 5ut it is assure as the revolution ol the snn that the blackmail is destined to worse slavery, worse oppression for a quarter of a century to come, than b.2 has ever known in America, and that slavery, s far from being dead, has been re-invigorated and strengthened hy the work of abolitionists;. It is a hard prophecy, lint it will be. Even if w e overrun and conquer the South, and ''free" every slave, the result accomplished will Liake him a wer.-e slave in the. years to come. The old I'nion was good enough for us. slavery in the Southern States notwithstanding. We would accept peace to day on the terms of that old Tnion. Vv'c would give a considerable portion of our present goods and chatties, would yield much ot our prrjit dices, would forego many ofoin preconceived idas, to recure just that old I'nion again. The cry of partisan politicians has blinded the eyes of the pcoplj. The 4;poer of .slavery" at which the radivals railed so loudly was no mere wicked, no more of a eiii.-o than auti-slaverv. The latter ha proved its power by umging us into this awful war for the sake of gaining superiority over tl e former. For these "power;' are bin. the hold which politicians have ov crthe people. There is no doubt that many politi'Ji'its rode into pk;ee and. profit on the pro -shivery power, and there is uo doubt that as many politicians roU' in to dace and profit en th? anti-slavery power. The a n ti -slave ry horse is of no whiter color than the Other. The auti-slavcry politicians, by their wholesale plunder, have roedthit they are no purer than the others. The whole cry against the "slave power" has been a deception by which designing politician 5eek to conceal their own grasping character. The Union was prosperous, it laws were beneficent, the people were happy, and the slave power v.M.s bought ami sold as a balance of power party will always bo" bought and sold. It could make good bargaius. Then the northern traitor:? organised a northern anti-slavery balance of power party, and trade on that, buying and idling, and at length the two towers had to bid so high that the price was blood. The nation is paying it in arony aud shame. It is timet:) come out of the hands ef thrsf soulless politicians. Then; are wise men in the South as wtdl as in the North who u:drjrstaiid t hose t rut h.s. If the people of the North will annul the political t rules and bargans wjb dolilioiiism by which polit i .tails now hold power here, and W ill have a President on! the principle of the ( '(institution alone, there are me enough in the South who remember the, old peace and gk'ty to establish a party there for the I'nion as it was. Aud the people are ready for it. The old Union rdiines. like a star through the battle clouds. Dying soldiers behold it aud are calm. l 1 he nation moans ami trembles in the agoy of its (revulsions, and there will be m no end of the torment until the people look to that, starlight faint indeed now and distant and inaccessible it sometimes seems but the only light which can give us peace. If We resolve to have the Union again, we will have it. Who dare say nay The last two weeks have opened many eyes, and silenced many blatant mouths. N. Y. Journal of Com. When tlic President, says the AlbanyArgus, adds that he will refuse to entertain a proposition of peace, und will wage war until the "abandonment of slavery," he is an usurper, ami undertakes towage vnr without the sanction and in violation of the ('(institution, lie has just as much Constitutional power to wage war for the establishment of Mahomet lui.sm, ns he has for the abolition of slavery. The subject of slavery is one which, under the Constitution, belongs exclusively to the States. A lady must think she has something valuable in her head, if wo may judge fron the number of lock.i she keeps upou it.
lurc2i;iKi' your 33oi:i uin iToUics . From the La Cross (Wis. ) Democrat. Lincoln has called for jiee hundred thotisaud more vi ttintl On the oth of September half a million men are to be drafted to fill up the ranks of the army to fighting dimensions' to get soldiers for the s mny South. (let ready. Set your house in order. Make arrangements to secure your fall crops, by prosy, and get ready to join the throng of the hundreds of thousands who have gone befnrc. Let the women buy mourning good a now, for in a month or so there will not be money enough in the country to use for that purpose. The draft comes. No one wants to go to war. Patriotism is sick! The nution is discouraged. Half the men rent before have been lost to us and the country. The seventy-five thousand Wide Awukcs who were to sweep the rebels into the Gulf of Mexico, have not been heard from lately. Haifa million more men arc to go forth to l c slaughtered for glory. Five hundred thousand more men are to be taken away from their industrial pursuits, ft is now revolt, Canada or furht. Let us sic what the people will do. Oh ! that Wisconsin had a (! over nor with pluck equal to the emergency. Would to God that the Chief Magistrate ol' this State had nerve to say to Abraham Lincoln that n t a nwn should go from the State till the quotas of the New England and the Eastern States are filled, llow the people would respect that position. lut no; the young West must be sapped ami drained of its life blood, while the abulitionized Eastern States, which are growing rich out of this war, are thousands of men in arrears under former calls. The fanatics aud speculators of New England sit at the feet of Lincoln and their States are passed over. The working men of the We.t have no friend at court, and can go to war in answer to calls or be hunted down. If we could sec but a glimmer ol lighi through this darkness, all would be well. If the half million now called for would end the war, we'd go at once, even if never to return. Hut there is no head to guide or arm to direct. The Administration has lied to us daily from its or gamzation. It lias made its last call ' halt a dozen times before it has resorted to all means to fill the army it has sacrificed a million of lives on the altar of incoiii:oieucy it has ignored or shelved the best military talent of the age it hadisappointed the land every month for three years and still the cargoes on. Only half a million more ! Oh, that is nothing. We are bound to free the nigücrs or die! Let's all go! The rebels .-an't fight. One northern abolitionist who rants and prays, is better than ten southern men to fight ! The rebels cannot raise men enough in all the South to make an army or make a decent battle ! The rebels have deserted till none are left! The Soi.th is a barren waste and her arm) has subsisted on quarter rations for three years ! The rebels are bankrupt in means, men. and military skill ! The niggers are all free by Old Abe's proclamations a. id are i:ov our allies ! The arming of the blacks does away with callit:r fr more wh'ue tvoops ! This mere by a little military excursion party, m which no one will be hurt ! The rebel troops are sick, starving, naked, without arm-; cowards, and terribly demoralized! This is what the administration has taught us. and being facts, where, in God's name, are the brave men the North has sent forth already? Kally round the Hag, boys. Continue this administration iu power md we can all go to war, Canadji or to hell before lMtiS. Only half a million ? Modest Abraham ! Might better have called for a million, for they will be needed before this abolition crusade is half over with, unless conducted on , a plan different from "my plan." Half a mi'h'cii !

Special Disoateh to Tlic Chicago 'Ihnes, C I X ( ' I X N AT I , A Ug. Ö . Ibdiable ::d vices have been received here to-day that Ex-dudgo Koberts has
defeated Benton, republican, in Kendleky, by a handsome majority. Whef it is considered thai (bm. Burbridge only issikd the order against .fudge Duval ttto days before the election, after he had been a candidate for several mouths without any objection, forbidding him to be a candidate, the order being re 'eived in many counties, ov.ly p-i the morning of the election, rendering it almost impossible for the opposition to c licentiate on any candidate, the resmt is rema .kable. Every delegtte in the State of Kentucky to the Chicago convention has been elected, and has instructions for Seymour, of Connecticut, for President. A number of refugees from Lexington and Central Kentucky arc arriving here daily, to escape the arbitrary military power of Burbridge. They report that a number of the families of democrats have been sent south by him and forbidden to return. The guerrill.i Jesse and Burbridge are carrying on retaliatory proceedings iu Kentucky. For every rebel sympathizer liurbridgc shoots, .Jesse arrests two Union men aud executes them on the spot. Several citizens on Lotli sides have been thus summarily hastened to the tomb, (hu e More. Again we call upon his Excellenev, O. P. M., to publish the r tual, obligations, oaths, signs, grips, passwords, and objects of the secret and oath-bound associations known vh the "Union," or "Loyal League." lie has made an exposure of an association ho terms the Sons of Liberty, and is it less
his duty to make a similar exposure of the f secret political association of which he is the head and front Ho condemn the; one as disloyal, as treasonable, and we ;,sk ; him to make an exposure of the other :-! that the people may judge for thiunsclves j the character of both. Hi. Excellency . i through his paid spies and pimps, has thej same means of exposing the '-Union: League" as he did the so called "S ns ot j Liberty," and he ovrcs it not only to the people, but to his own reputation for j fairness rnd honesty, that he should dos.i. j
ine governor proiesse.s to ue a no-pany man Now he has the opportunity of demonstrating his honesty in that regard. He has the opportunity to show whether he is a partisan or not. Will ho do it ': That's the rub State S-nlawl. Tlic Way lo lcacc From the Chicago Times. There are really no substantial differences iu the democratic party. If there seem to be differences, they arc apparent, not real. There iro certainly nunc which may not be easily reconciled at th'.' ensuing Chicago convention. Neither arc there differences which may n:t bo in like man uer harmonized between demo'-rats aim that vast mass oi' other conscr ative people who are arraying themselves against tin re-clcctiou of -Mr. Lincoln. The democracy and their allies have a single grand object in view, and that is the speediest possible settlement of the national difficulties upou terms which will be just smd honorably to all sections of the country. Let the Chicago convention so declare. Or if this be not sufficiently definite, let the Chicago convention declare that tin Federal government ought to hold itself in readiness to accept a proposition from tluCon federates for AN ARM isTfCK AM a CON VIINTJoN OF Alili the S i'ates. SurcH this is ground upon which erery democrat and every other conservative man can s!aud. An armistice preserving the . tu. quo of tho contending armies von Id not prejudice th-j military situation ofeithei party; and by a national convention of all the States, consisting of delegates elected by the people, the whole subject of peace and war, of roe jnstruetion; of tho futun of the commm country, would betaken fvom the executive governments of Washington and Biehnioud and handed over to the immed :'te and direct action of tin people.
