Tobe brief, the .abolitionists claim that this war is being conducted just to their no tion, they approve and endose all the measures. of the io:m nistration looking to the extei minat'n n of slavery. They talk war and vote war, but exhibit their hypocracy or cowardice, an 1 proh ilily both, by refusing to ttrp forward ar.d fill up tl:e thinned tanks of the army. 1 1 is both inconsistent and im pudent for them to ask Democrats, whom they have denounced by every epithet that cowardice ami malignity could invent to come forward and light their battles, especially without their setting the example. They may be willing to take their chances in thc draft. Democrats may also be willing to take the same chances. Let Mr. Lincoln change his policy from radical to conservative chauge tho object ol the war Jrom negro emancipation and sulju gatioti to one for the honest restoration of the Union, and we will guarantee that the conservative men of the country will speedily fill up the ranks of tho army and make short work of the rebellion. - Tho Maryland "Election" The Militarv Interference.

The Committee on rcsoluti.ns came in and reported the following rUEAMliLE AND RESOLUTIONS t W:-:ereas. ThcGeneral Government, aided by the loyal States, is, and has been engaged lor more than two years and a half in putting down a wicked rebellion, which was com inenced and has been continued without jus tification or adequate cause, and Whereas, The Democracy and conservative citizens of Shelby County are now, as they ever have been, iu favor of the Constitution and of the Union of States as they were created by tho patriots of the better days of the Republic, and are desirous that the blessings and advantages intended to be secured by each be perpetuated lorall tune lucoine, ami. heretic, Thc allegiance of the citizen is duo alone to the constitution, and the laws made in persuanee thereof not to any man, or officer, or administration it is therefore Jlcufccd, I hat in the miusd: of the stir rounding gloom, with a desperate struggle forced upon us, thc duty of thc Democracy can be clearly discerned. It is to furnish to those in authority all constitutional means for the successful conduct of tho war till the armed force of the rebellion the objects and a. ms ot which we heartily condemn is broken, and to struggle persistently agiinst a dismemberment l tho Union, w must cling to t lie-Union and stand by the Constitution, and uphold the course of law and on'cr, while the elective franchise is left free and the Courts oi justice are maintained in their functions, we must trust to them lor the vindication of oerson.ii and political richts. Jiesolred. That as the combat on our part has-been lor the maintainenee rfthe Constiunion una the perpetuation ol the union, against those who sought to destroy them, we can accept no adjustment which. does not lul ly recognize the accomplishment of these objects, while we still contend, as we have done irom the conunencemet of the struggle, for the sti'preuiacy of the Constitution and theperpetuation of the Union with nil the dignity , equality and rights of the everal States unimparcd. we protest against the prosecution of the war for the abolition of slavery, and the reduction of the seceded States to the condition of territories, in accordance with the admin stration platform as defined by Mr. Whiting, the solicitor of the warde partment, in his letter to the 60 called loyal Leaguoof Philadelphia. Reftoleed, -That in our judgment the seceeded States have never been out f the Union, that the only effect of thc.revolt has .been to suspend ther action of ihe civil authorities .therein during its contirtianc, that when any or all of the States in insurrection shall desist from the rebellion, return tojtheir allegiance and elect their representatives to the National councils, such, State or States will then be entitled under the Constitution to resume their original" statu' in the Union, and that those who insist that such States should call contentions and abolish slavery as a condition of their return to tho Union, are in danger ol boeoming n LeU thcmel es.

The first thought of many (and tho abolition paper endeavor to inculcate it into the minds of the people) is to ccnul.etlie ReI)eI ?0vernment-it isalways !i"8t to give thc Dcvil hls due thc reljels h is said do the best they c nvtnicntly can for them in the way of provisions It is thc administration at Washington who are in fault the heartless and dispicable Stanton, Secretary of War, who has for months past endeavored to stop an exchange of prisoners, and has finally succeoded. lie claimed the right to violate or amend nt p'easure the cartel adopted for tho exchange of pri6oneis at the commencement of the war the rebels jare anxious to exchange but insist the cartel i shall bo observed Stanton says he cares nothing about exchanging unless he can have the privilege of violating the cartel as often as may suit his pusilunimnus nature. It is also hinted and generally believed that Stanton has connived at this State ofaffairs on the c inception of the brilliant idea that the support of the Federal prisoners would be a henvy burden upon the Ueocls exhaust ther supplies and the sooner fetch them to the brink of starvation and consequent submissionthe experiment promises to Le about as suoces-ful as that, of tho genious who put green speotaoles upon hi horse and then palmed shavings upon him tor hay the deception was a success but. the Uorsa died of starvation. The following extract from an article on this subject in the New York World will throw additioual liht on thc subject: The policy of the War Department at Washington on the question of exchanges painfully points this painful moral. Itshould be inconceivable that any American citizen of decent education could be found capable of calculating upon the burden which prisoners of war must impose on the pinched re sources of the con'olerate authorities as a capital device for accelerating the process of starving out the South and crushing the rebellion. And yet, it is hardly open to doubt that Mr. Secretary Stanton has made this hideous calculation, that he has acted ami is acting u; on it: that he has instructed or at least inspired our ageut of, exchange to raise all possible diUicnlties in iha way of such ex changes, and that, as a consequence of these plans and orders, thousands of gal'ant ar.d loyal American soldiers arc now dying far more rapidly than by inches in the prison.of the Confederate States. At the bare suggestion of such a process with such results, we might listen lor . the very stones to cry out in the streets. Cut we should listen in vain. The lamentable voices ofutir atrophied and dying ' brethren fall unheard into the mar of arm and the clatter of contractors. A lew thousands more or iess of wasted human lives, a few thousand more or less of ruined human homes, a few thousands more or less of helpless widows and orphans thrown into the swelling tidir of pauperism ther is nothing in such trilles as these either to shake the settled purpose of the Stantoninn mind or to shock the apathttio public into honest in dignation and eflective humanity. . . As a war measure, nothing could be more imbecile. Thc people of the Confederate States. Who stint themsel.vcs to keep their ar mies in the field supplied as our victorious soldiers but tln4thor day found the army of Leo to be, arc notnt all likely to rob their armies. for the sake of our captives. The policy defeats itself by exasperating still more the already fierce and crue'.'empcr ol the rebels, and the" burdpti which Stanton seeks to throw, upon them only bears our own men down into miserable graves. Nor does it only preps upon our prisoners. The prospect of such captivity as awaits them in Richmond naturally depresses the spirit of our troops In general, and directly impedes the proercM of enlistments.
