The war has been . fought for nearly three years. We have loaded , the nation doWu with rorrowand debt. Hun dreds and thousands of our brave and patrio tic men have been slain. And yet it. ia God's truth, that the Government eau command less freewill-nupport in the Southern State*, to day than When its armies were first hurled v against the enemy.

SATIVO STOCK.-In impressing beef a^d and hogs for thc army, au eye should be had to the importance of preserving a sufficiency id'stock for breeding purposes. In some eec tiona of the country nearly 3.11 th.r milch cows have been taken for beef ca'tle and in others scarcely a hog is to be fdund. If thc war con ?jnuea two or throe years longer-as it proba-1 bly will-tie great mass of the people will j Le compelled to live on litt'n or KO meats; and tu order to do tm's they oucht to plant I out orchards and vineyards, cultivate Chinese | sugar cine extensively and <J.ey?i?J great care to the raisin"; of poultry of cilery description. We aro in for a long acd wasting war, and to tome odfc of it successfully those who are not fit for field service must determine to live fru gally, and to spare not/torts' to feed and clothe the soldiers wrjo have to do thc fighting. The Cincinuati Inquirer, public bing an ac count of the ereat Lincoln ball, follows it up with this sensible remark : Negro fiddled while Roms was burning. Mr. and Mrs. Liucolo give g?j and expensive entertaiuments *b":lA the country is in the la?t throes af dissolution, and while i be pe?p'?e ; are taxad.to tnejr uttermost to sustain the policy which is destroying it. x'Nearly all i ??re generala in the army wer? there!"
