Itt'CLELLAX AND THE VNIO!f. The following song was sung at tie great McClellan Mats Meeting in New Ycrk City last week : When rose the gloomy clouds of war, And brother rushed at brother, And hand so late in friendship claip'd Drew swords against each other, Our country hailed with pride and joy, And every tongue was telling The leader's name whose star had dawned The young and brave McClellan. Chorus Around the Old Flag wo Trill rally like men, We'll rally like men in the noble communion; McClellan, our leader, we'll rally again, And fight to restore the Old Union The union of lakes and the union of lands, The Unien which none shall dissever, The union of hearts and the union of hands Our glorious Old Union forever ! ChorusBut wild and fiercer grew the strife, And armies sternly meeting, Stood face to face on mutual ground, And thundered hostile greeting; Then brighter grew hi glorious name,

And patriot voice?, swelling, Renewed the soldiers shout and cried Oar hero is McClellan ! Chorus But envy aims at all that's brieht, And strikes tho noblest quarry, So who but he, our gallant chief, Should dogs of party worry ; But never half so puje and true, (His name enshrined is dwelling.) As when his foes their futile shafts Shoot harmless at McClellan ! Chorus Above the weak and factious throng, Whose transient power debases, . His trial shows him nobler still, And every wrong but graces. Then here's to him, the just and brave, Who all his foomcn quelling, Thail yet redeem his country's cause, . Our hope and shield McClellan I The Clerical Kiss. Dominie Brown had reached the mature age of five and forty without ever having taken part in the pleasant labial exercise. One of his deacons had a very charming daughter, and for a year or two the Dominie found it very pleasant to call upon her three cr four times a week. In fact. all the neighbors said he was 'courtinjr' her, and very likely he vas, though he had not the remotest suspicions of it himself. One Monday evening, he was j sitting as usual by fier, when a sudden idea popped into his head. Miss Mary,' said he, 'I've known you a long time, and I never thought of such a thing before ; but now I would like you to give me a kiss. Will you V Well, Mr. Brown,' replied she, arch ing her lips in a tempting way, if you think it would not bo wrong, I have no objection.' Let us ask a blessing first,' said the good man, closing his eyes and folding his hands. Fer what we are about to receive the Lord make us thankful.' The chaste salute was then given, and warm I v returned. 4 Oh, Mary, that was good!' cried the Doniome electrified by a new sensation 'Let us have another, and then return thanks.' Mary did not refuse ; and when the op eration had been repeated, the Domonie ejaculated in a transport of iov : For the r reature comlorts which we have now enjoyed, the Lord bo praised and may they be sanctioned to our temporal and eternal good. History says that the fervent'petition of the honest Dominie was duly answered; for in less than a month Mary became Mrs. Brown. The very Document They Wanted. The Richmond Enquirer, in alluding to the charge of the New York Tribune, that Lincolns Amnesty Proclamation was not published in the South, says : "As to the suppression of President Lincoln's Proclamation of Amnesty, it is utterly false. I he inquirer published ;t m full so did every daily paper. It wis exactly the kind of a proclamation ve wanted Mr. Lincoln to make. It was tie full and complete confirmation of all ve had charged upon Lincoln; it demonstrated, by confession, that we were cornet when we told the people of the Confederate States that the subjugation of th.dr liberties was to be effected by their degradation to a levil with their slaves. It shocked the sensibilities of every chss of the people, and was satisfactory e?idence that not social rnin, but the oatrage of mothers, wives and. sisters, by bruitalized negroes, were the terms, and the only terms, of amnesty offered. To have suppressed this proclamation would have been an act of stnpenduous folly.' The Tribune understands political captital in party slang. This proclamation supplied that capital, it cculd not be denied; it could not be explained. Its meaning was palable, its object too plain to need explanation or elucidation. We spread it before our readers ; called their attention to it; we invited them to iead it; the soldiers read, and while we do not attribute to the proclamation the enlistments that have recently takei place we do believe that it sensibly checks de sertion." It is thus Lincoln aids and abets the Confederates of the South. Thire can be no doubt that all of his proclamations have had that effect. No one is so stupid as not to set it.

Trom the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Why tho Administration Should bo Changed-Facts for the People to Ponder Whatever differences of opinion may exist upon certain questions of law, or expeditney, ivhichhave arisen during the progress of this great war, there is a tolerable certainty about some things which favors the idea of a change in the management of our public affairs. We may 6afely incluJe, in tho catalogue of objections to the present administration, the following First, That the war has been perverted from its originally declared purpose (namely, the simple auppression of certain artne 1 organizations in the South, with a view to the restoration of friendly and constitutional relations,) to a gigantic scheme for the subversion of tha industrial system of tho Southern States. Second, That the war has been made a pretext and apology for the usurpation, by the President, of powers unwarranted by the Federal Constitution and totally irreconcilable with the letter and spirit of our institutions. Third, That, the war has been conducted to build up a party at the expense of blood and treasure and time, and at the hazard of a permanent separation of the sections, inasmuch as eminent military officers have been deprived of command for merely partisan reasons, and, for the same caue, violent and inefficient men put in their stead ; troops have been withheld at critical junctures, and the carefully devised plans of able generals have been wantonly reversed, the chief object of all of which folly and crime has been to destroy some real or fancied popularity of certain commanders with the masses of their countrvmeu.

Fourth, That tho conduct of the war has been characterized by corruptions unprecedented in the history of any people, for which the presideut has, in many in stances, (vide, the case of Cameron,) declared himself responsible. Fifth, I hat tho administration has committed itself to doctrines which ele vate the military above tho civil power, affect the purity of tho ballot box, and endanger the persoarl liberty of tho citi zen. Sixth, and finallv, That the policy now declared is fatal not merely to all ideas of a legal re-union of tho States, but tore-shadows future bankruptcy, constant agitation, tho establishment of a large sianuing army, ana in a lime ny no means remote, a military centralization such as to-day exists in Fiance. If there be persons of such buoyant and sanguine temperament as to laugh at the calamities which we have indicated, and to stylo them the mere phantoms of a brain morbidly jaundiced, wo beg leave to remind them of what has been done ; we ask them to weigh the meaning of the claim asserted by Mr. Lincoln to be the sole judge in all cases of what is lawful and proper to bo done as a "military necessity-" We call their attention to what has been done in Virginia in defiance of tie opinion of Mr. Caleb Bates, Attorney Geueral in Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet. We point them to the message of Governor Bradford, showing how elections are carried by gun and sword. We recall to them the act of placing the Free North under martial law. Wa ask them to pause before the schemes of reorganizing States according to Mr. Lincoln's idea. His oath ! ponder over it. We ask them to consider the means used to make the army apolitical engine in utter scorn of all the warnings of history ; and we bid them think of tho terrible increase of new offices to swell the "dispensing power" of tho Government, while the people are struggling under the burden of high prices. If these be not reasons ample enough to warrant tho people in demanding new agents, then we shall begin to despair of tlie intelligence and virtue of the people. We shall begin to forecast the doom of this once peerless and happy republic. Let the meu at Washington, who have made carnival and traffic of this awfl feud, vacate their seats, and let them fresh from the people take the helm, men who will not forget that they are responsible, men who will not contrive new fangled oaths whilst they are daily breaking the old and honored oaths which they took high heaven to witness that they would faithfully keep ; men who will labor to get us Union, but what is even better than union our old and tried political system as devised by the statesmen in 17S7 ; men who will keep their hands free from illicit gain ; men who will re store our national name and fame abroad, which have been so sadly tarnished by the shuffling and cowardly policy ot the last three years. Give us a change. It is the prayer of the people, even if it is not their hope. Yet, there are signs in the firmament which gladden the souls of men. There are signs which hundreds of thousands watch as the last opportunity of the nation. God grant that they may not fail ! How to Prevent the Defacing Marks of Small Pox. While it is known to medical men that a total suppression of the eruption of small pox will endanger the life of the sufferer, it is proved by experience that such a suppression can be undertaken on small portions of the body, for instance the face, without harm. The pomade of

Bandeloque, made of six parts of pitch, (pix nig a,) ten parts of yellow wax.

and twenty-four parts of mercurial oint

ment, will answer that purpose. When ' fantry, named Andrew S legem an, murnsad, it should be warmed and all parts de red a citizen named Wellburn Stafford, of tho skin of the face be covered and He murdered him in the belief that ho kept covered continually for the spaco of! was a democrat, and, as we learn, because four days ; the salve, if it proves elSca- j he believed he was a democrat. Stafcious, must be applied on the first or sec-liord, however, was a republican, and was

ond day the eruption has broken out Four days after the application, when removed, the eruption will have remained papulous, and the spcts will disappear in time, without leaving any maiks behind. Having experienced the good effects from the administration of this remedy, we hope the press of this city will promulgate it by publication, and earn their thanks troru the smilinj faces of those whom it will have spared a frightfnl disfigureation. Respec'ly yours, M. SciicrpcnT, M. D. Curiosities of Printing Quaer things Done in Type. The mistakes of printers are-often very funny to readers and exasperating to authors. A single letter is often of the greatest importance, and a small mistake frequently changes the whole effect of an article. Some very funny stories are told oj mishaps of this character, and we give below some of the best. An Englfsh papar once stated that the Ru sian General Backinoffkowsky was found dead with 'a Ion;; word in his mouth It should have been 'sword.' In this case, however the printer could not. have been blamed for leaving out a letter after setting up the Russian name correctly. During the Mexican wai one of the English newspapers hurriedly announced an important item of news from Mexico that General Pillow and thirty-seven of his men had been lost 'in a bottle.' It should have read 'battle.' A lad in a printing office came upon the name of Hecate, occuring in a line like this: 'Shall reiga the Hecate of the deepest nell.' The boy, thinking he had discovered an error, ran to tho master printer and inquired eagerly whether there was an e in cat. 'Why no you blockhead,' was the reply. Away went the boy to the press room and extracted the objectionable letter. But fancy the horror of both poet and publisher when tho poem appeared with the line: 'Shall reign the lie Cat of the deepest Ue;:.' A newspaper some time ago gravely informed its readers that a rat descending the river came iu contact with a steamboat with such serious injury to tho boat that great exertions were necessary to save it. It was a raft not a rat, descending the river. In the directions for conducting the Catholic service in a place in France, a shocking blunder once occurred in printing callote, culotte. Now a calotte is an eccelesiastical cap or mitre, while culotte means what would be known in drawing room English as a gentleman's 6mall clothes. The sentence read, 'Here the priest will take off his culotte LETTERS DROPPED OUT. But let a form of types bo ever so cor rect when sent to the press, errors not unfrequently happen from the liability of letters to drop out, when the form has not been properly adjusted or locked suf ficiently tight. A printer puttincr to press a form of the Common Prayer, the c in the'followmg pasnage droped outun precieved by him; 'We shall all becAan ged in the twinkling of an eye.' When the book appeared, to the horror of the devout worshipper, the passage read : 'We shall all be hanged in the twinkling of an eye.' A newspaper recently stated, in a report of a battle, that the conflict was dreadful and that the enemy was repulsed with great laughter (slaughter). A man was said once to have been brought up to answer the charge for havincr eat en (beaten) a stage driver for demanding more than his fare. The public were inr l . l - loimeu home nine ao mai a man was committed for having stolen a small ox (box) irom a lady's workbag. The stolen propei ty was found in his Test pocket. In an account of a Fourth of July dinner it was stated than none of the poultry was eaten except the owls (fowls). A 'MAKE-CP BLCXDER. A laughable mistake, is shown in the following mixing of two articles one concerning a preacher the other about the freaks of a mad-dog which occurred in a hurried 'make-up' up in a printing office: 'Rev. James Thompson, rector of St. Andrew's church, preached to a large concourse cf people on Sunday last. This was his last sermon. In a few weeks he will bid farewell to his congregation, as his physician advises him to cross the Atlantic. He exhorted his brethern and sisters, arid after the conclusion of a short prayer, took a whim to cut up some frantic freaks. He ran up Timothy street to the college. At this stage of proceedings a couple of boy seized him and tied a tin kettle to his tail, and he again star ted. A great crowd collected, and for a time there was a grand scene of running and confusion. After a long race he was finally toot by a policeman.' 27A11 men who do anything most endure a depreciation of their efforts. It is the dust which their chariot wheels throw up.

Intimidation by Murder. A few days ago, in Jersey county, Illinois, a soldier of the Tenth Illinois la

the victim of mistaken identity. Great public excitement entued, and a warrant having been issued for the apprehension of Stegeman, an officer followed him to Quincy, but did not execute the warrant becaue the Colonel of the regiment interposed, threatening military force to prevent an arrest. Thereupon the officer returned to his home, when a distinguished citizen of Jersey county visited Springfield for the purpose of invoking the power of the State authority in behalf of outraged law and civil justice. After much difficulty, he succeeded in getting the case before the Governor, who dismissed it contemptuously with the remark that it belonged to the Federal military authorities. Such is the protection the psople of Illinois have from their own State government. A citizen is murdered in cold blood ; the murderer marches with his regiment to a distant county ; the civil law is blocked by the magistrate whoso highest duty is to enforce it ; and there is no avenue of redress save that which the civil authorify is foi bidden to enter, and prevented from entering by brutling bayonets. These murderers are stimulated for partisan purposes. They are the machinery by which the democracy are to be intimidated. Illinois cannot be carried by abolitionism save by the employment of this machinery, the chief engineer in the mnning of which seems to be the Governor of the State, who is a candidate for the United States Senate, and whose chances of success depend upon the manner in which the machinery shall be mads to work. It is bimply timely that we should give notice that the democracy of Illinois will not be intimidated by either murder, arson, or any other form of atrocity to which the fiendihness of abo litionism may resort. On the contrary, the civil law failing in its office by rea son of partisan obstruction, tho democra cy of Illinois will fall back upon the law of self-preseevatios. and will, in every case of outrage, make reprisals of an eya lor an eye and a tooth for a tooth. It will be very wise in abolitionism to heed this admonition. Chicago Timet. Tns Rebels Know Their Owx. A recent number of a rebel newspaper the Missistippiaa contains the foliowin remarkable passage : "Have our neighbors read the Chicago Times, New York Express, Metropolitan Record, Cincinnati Enquirer, or any of the various other papers of the North which are the exponents of the opposition to Lincoln? Have they read the speeches of Hendricks, Voorhee.-, Merrick, and various others?Have they ever found in any of these papers or speeches a syllable that did not breathe the most orthodox States' Righta doctrine, and uncompromising opposition to coercion ? These are the men we wish to encourare, and these are the men whose success will brins us peace," Can the Volunteer explain why it is that the rebels look so confidently to the Copperheads of the North for aid and comfort and the ultimate triumph of treason and rebellion ? The above is from the abolition (dis)Union Banner of this city. To the closing interrogatory we have but to say: The pretended extract from the Missippian is a forgery a mean and contemptible abolition lie, batons in every respect worthy and characteristic of the abolition party, which lives by falsehood and thrives by plunder. We will pay a handsome reward for a copy of the Jlfississippian containing the above article a rich man would be safe in offering his entire possessions, for the paper can not be produced.
