" FOB , PRESIDENT J
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, of Illinois.
,A Audacious Assumption.
One of the most brczen faced assump
tions that ever emanated from impudence
itself,- is the pretence set up by certain
Democratic leaders, that the self styled
Democratic party must be restored to
power to make a successful end of the
war. They have-issued anew edition cf
the old, stale story that the Republicans
are not competent to govern the country,
and that- the only remedy is a return of
hunkerisui to power. This assumption
comes with a very bad praeo from a class
of politiaians who were mainly instrumen
tal in inaugurating the rebellion. These
demagogues seem to have forgotten that
their rotes and their influence made Bu
chanan President, and put that old traitor
and thief, John 13. Floyd, with other
traitors, Cobb, Thompseu and Touccy, into
the Cabinet, to lie ani steal antl plot
treason and rebellion in the "White flouse.
They seem to hae forgotten that their
party organization lor years has been
entirely under the control of the blankest
hearted set cf traitors that ever disgraced
the earth a party tchose ruling passion u
strong in death. Those jvho read Demo
cratic speeches and newspapers, and listen
tJ Democratic harangues, will be struck
with the pertinacity with which theleaders
of that political organization hold on to
slavery. The idea of parting with it as an
institution or system throws them into
agonies. They still keep up their old
howl of "Abolitionist," "fanatics." True
tu the instiiiCts that have guided that
party for years, they scofr at' God, revile
the idea of a higher law, while as a party
they arc so steeped in 'the dregs of infidel
ity that thoy cannot see the hand of the
Almighty in anything connected with the
war. This same party holds conventions
an&passe3 resolutions against the emanci
pation proclamation of the President, just
as though he had committed a great sin
against God and humanity in striking off
the chains of servitude from millions held
by "rebels, and used by them to strengthen
the rebellion and weaken us. With them
the idea is, and always has been, perish
country, perish government, peri-sh every
thing that freemen hold dear and of good
repute, only save tht glorious institution of
ttacery. ' They have abased every man
that has from the commencement cf the
wat favored emancipation, either as an act
cf humanity or of military necessity. These
unprincipled leaders are now d:wn upon
every plan of reconstruction which does
not practically bring back slavery "as it
was." They seem to fear the curse will
be removed. With them slavery i3 the
Alpha and Omega; with them it is pre
eminent and above country, government or
the Union. The ultra infidel doctrine of
Calhoun and his treasonable followers, that
slavery is the "chief corner stone of the
republic," seems to have taken possession
of the leaders of that political organization.
Hence their indecent rant against President
Lincoln and the millions who favor his
emancipation idea. The Democrats who
talk so flippantly about the superiority of
Democrats to rule seem to have forgotten
the fact that ouly a few years ago they
cecurcd the services cf that jesuitical
traitor, Judah I. Benjamin, to travel
from Louisiana to Maine, to instruct the
people how to vote, and how they cheered
him ia Philadelphia and New York, and
pronounced him Sir Oracle; and how they
went away to Georgia to hunt up that
infernal tory, Ilowell.Cobb, to assist the
Jewish tliicf in expounding Democracy to
the free people of the Free States. We
wonder if they remember their fulsome
laudation of one Jeff. Da.vi, how they
recommended hum to the notice of the
people as a specimen of genuine D2moera
cy, when ho traveled a few years ago
through the Free States eulogizing the
cursed system of slavery, and instructing
hi fellow DcmcsraU in. their political
duties. ' . -
In what Lind: of a condition are these
Democratic loaders -to talk about the
inrpdrUcc of restoring tic country to
Democratic rule, with, their garments still
covered with the leprous spots of treason,
by their association with the villainous
rebels at Louisiana, Mississippi and Geor.-
The question here arises, why ia the so
called Democratic party so much, a love
with this chief of all abominations, African
slavery, that it locks with perfect horror
upon a reconstruction of the Union without
it? The answer is found ia tlie.history of
that party for the last fifteen or twenty
years. Its foundation and top stone has
been the institution itself. Slavery ruled
the so called Democratic party in the
South, and the leaders of that political
organization ruled those acting with them
in the North. For a series of years the
black slaves themselves were not more
subservient, more under the'perfect control
and rule of their Southern masters thau
has been the so called Democracy of the
North. A single crack of the slave driver's
whip would bring into Hue battalions of
the Northern Democracy at a single leap,
and fhere.hcy would stand clinging before
their masters, meekly inquiring for further
orders. The single fact that so large and
influential a ftty as the so called Demo
cratic teas should become so totally depraved
and demoralized by a Southern institution
is enough to damn the institution itself
forever.
When slavery goes down southern rebels
go down with it, beyond the possibility of
resurrection, and with it perish the last
hopes of northern Coppcrheadism. To
fight for the preservation of slavery as a
future element in the government is to
fight against God, humanity and the Chris
tian civilization of the ge.
Five IIundhed Thousand Mobe !
The President has issued his proclamation
summoning 500,000 more men into the
field. This call ia besed on the well known
fact that the South is arming en masa for
the Spring campaign, hoping, by a bold
invasion with superiority cf cumbers, to
compel a speedy recognition cf its indepen
dence. The order for 'these 500,000 men
is interpreted to include the 300,000 men
already called, bdng in effect a call for
200,000 additional men.
Here is the President's proclamation :
EECCT'rs Mansion', Washington, 1). C,
Fob. 1, 1881. Ordered, that a draft tor five
hundred thousand men, to serve for three
Year? or during the war, be madeon the tenth
day of March next, for th military service of
the United Slates. Crediting and deducting
therefrom so many s may have been enlisted
or drafted into the service prior to the first
day of March and not heretofore credited.
(Signed) ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Senator White's Resignation Hand
ed is. All efforts for the exchange of Sen
ator White having proved abortive, on
Monday last his resignation was handed in
to the Senate by Hon. Thomas "White, cf
Indiana. A new election to fill the va
cancy was Immediately ordered by speaker
Penney. In explanation cfhis delay in
making the resignation public, Judge
"White say3 thai strenuous efforts were
being made by the Government for the
release of the Senator during the past two
months, with every prospect of success,
and that these efforts were only defeated
through the duplicity of the Tebels. So
the dead-lock in "the Senate will soon pass
away, and with it the ability cf the
Copperheads to longer thwart the wishes
of the loyal people by impeding legislation.
The Conscription Law. The amen
ded Conscription Bill has passed both
Houses, and only awaits the the fignature
of the President to become a law. Be
sides providing that an enrolled man may
at any time secure complete exemption by
furnishing a substitute not liable to draft,
it now permits a drafted man to secure
exemption from service by procuring a
substitute liable to .draft; but his name
will Vjp tfgain enrolled for the next draft.
Tho'-'Cibst of commutation is retained at
SoOO, and the name of the exempted man
is enrolled, subject to draft under future
calls "wb.cn the present enrollment is
exhausted." Commutation money must
be applied to securing substitutes in the
Concessional district paying the money.
Members of religious sects, conscientiously
opposed to bearing arms, are to be consider
ed, if drafted,, as non-combatants, and
assigned to duty ia hospitals, .or be
exempted, by paying 300 during the
whole term. Every foreigner who has
held office in the State or United States is
to be enrolled." The two classes Tor
enrollment and draft are merged in one
which is made to include persons between
the age.of twenty an 1 forty-five years;
credits to be given to cities, towns and
wards, so as to equalize as far as possible,
the draft throughout each district.
Drafted men may, if they prefer, be
transferred " to the navy; such transfer
being credited to their respective localities.
Alterations are mado in the detail? of the
old act for conducting the draft, and
attorneys or agents are restricted to the
fee of five dollars for preparing the
necessary exemption papers-

Washington City, Jan. SO, 18G-L
To the Editor of The Alleghanian : m
TUB SECOND AUDITOR'S OFFICE IMPCETAST
IXFOllMATICN FOB THE PEOPLE.
Opposite the War and Navy buildings
in Washington, and much larger than
cither or them, is Winder's building, a fire
proof brick Etructure, five stories high,
and containing 130 rooms. Its exterior is
covered with a preparation of whitish sand,
wliich at a short distance gives it the
appearance of a building cf stone. Its
form is that of the letter L the perpen
dicular part extending along F street, and
the horizontal fronting on 17th street.
tVith the exception of a plain iron balcony,
projecting from the second story, and
extending the whole length and lront of
the building, it is entirely without orna-
Kmeiit. Recently a brick addition, three
tories high, and intcuded to accommodate
bout 200 clerks, has been attached at
ght angles to the F street portiou of the
Iding. It will be ready for occuparcy
eirly in February. The main building is
heated by hot air, and the new wing will
be heated in the same way.
Winder's Building was erected in 1S15
C by a company, of which Win. II." Win
der, of Philadelphia, was the principal
member. Hence its name. It is said to
have been intended for an up town hotel.
The entire cost of the structure is reported
to have been less than 100,000, but it
was sold to the Government, a short time
after its completion, for $200,000. (It is
interesting to note the fact that this same
Wm. II. Winder was incarcerated in Fort
Warren during a part of the year 1802,
for disloyalty ) The building wa3 first
partly occupied in 1817, during the
Mexican war, when the Second Auditor's
office of the Treasury Department, which
until then had beeu located in the War
Building was removed into it. Other
branches cf the Treasury, War and Navy
department soon followed. The whole
building is now crowded Jo its utmost
capacity by about CQ0 officials, clerks and
messengers, representing the Second Au
ditor's Office, the OfSce" of Quartermaster
General of tho- Army, the Ordnance
Bureau, the Army Engineer Department
proper, the Bureau of Topographical En
gineers, the OSeo of the Judge-Advocate
Genera! of the Army, and the Office of the
Commissary General ot Prisoners. A.
couple of clerks from the Navy Depart
ment still retain the occupancy of one
room. It is of the first named Bureau
that we piopose tj speak in the remainder
of this article. f " '
The Second Auditor's oGice is at present ,
the most extensive branch of the Tree.snr'y
Department. Before the rebellion ir
duties wore performed y an Auditor, chief
clerk, twenty additional clerks, two mess
engers and a laborer. On the first day of
Jauuary, 1S01, the number of clerks had
increased to 211, atfdojie messenger and
one laborer had been a(LJcL On that day
the entire clerical force was engaged in
the settlement of the following classes of
CO
accounts, wain.Iy pertaining, as will be
seen, to the Administration of the War
Department of the Government: Claims
by heirs ot deceased soldiers for back pay
and bounty; also claip-s of discharged
soldiers for back pay. Tho accounts of
Army Paymasters, Ordnance accounts.
The accounts of all officers charged with
the care cf arms, camp and garrison
equipage, and clothing. Contingent
account of the Quartermastcr-Gen-eral's
Department, and miscellaneous army ac
counts. Medical and hosnital accounts,
A
including the accounts ofcontract&urgecns.
All accounts relating to -recruiting for the
Kegular Army, collecting, drilling r.nd
mustering of volnnteer, and the general
expenses of the enrollment and draft.
Accounts of Indian Agents and Superin
tendents, and ' miscellaneous accounts ; re
lating to tho Indians, Sutlers' and ''lafm-dressea'-
accounts. In addition to the
foregoing, there is a book-keeper, requisi
tion clerk, a clerk who.-e duty it is to
register the sums drawn from the Treasury
under the different War and Indian
Appropriation, . cf which the Second
Auditor's office takes cognizance, ?nd two
clerks who keep the accounts of officers of
the regular arid volunteer army. It will
be understood,' of course, that a number of
clerks are kept constantly engaged' in ex
amining the fiiails, regulating the files,
copying letters, &c. The amount of mail
matter received and transmitted daily is
measured by bushels. '"
Of the different branches of work above
named, the most important by far is that
which embraces the settlement of claims
for back pay. and bounty of deceased sol
diers. The heirs of all privates who may
die or bo killed in the ocrvice are entitled
to a bounty of $100, as well as back pay;
heirs cf officers receive ouly back pay.
One hundred and twenty cleric more
than half of the whole number are em
ployed on this branch. About seven ty-Svc
of theso arc closely engaged seven hours
daily in auditing claims that is, examin
ing finally the applications and evidence
submitted by claimants, examining the
proper muster and pay rolls, and issuing
certificates of indebtedness to be transmit
ted, by mail to the claimants. The
remainder - of the force on. this branch,
about forty-five clerks, is engaged au equal
number cf hours in tho. preliminary
examination of applications and accompa
nying evidence, the regis teriog of these
applications, the recording of settlements,
&c. . All correspondence with claimants
relative to additional -evidence required
before their claims can bo audited, is
conducted by this division of the branch.
These are, briefly, some of the duties of
the -'dead branch" cf the office. Subjoined
are some details of the operations of thi3
branch:
During the whole of the years 18G1..2
and up to the first day of November, 1SG3,
the number of claims received was largely
in excess of the number settled! This
fact was mainly owing to the limited
number of clerks employed in the office,
the increase of which was prevented by
two causes. Chief of these, at first, was
the absence of authority from Congress to
add to thq clerical force of the office. At
its special session in 1801, and for romc
time after the convening of the regular
ses.-ion in December of that year, Congress
did not think it necessary to increase
materially the clerical force of th Second
Auditor's Office, as everybody in those
days looked forward to an early termination
of the war. The second cause is found in
the absolute want of room for additional
clerks in'the apartments under the control
of the Auditor. Nor could of.hcr conveni
ent and fire proof apartment be obtained;
and, that the valuable papers and records
of the office should be kept in a Jiie proof
building, Was absolutely essential. The
icuole of Winder's Building was occupied
by branches of the public service, none of
which -cculd be removed. At length, by
the completion ot the west wing of the
Treasury Building, the Fourth Auditor,
and nis clerks were enabled to vacate
several rooms in Winder's Building, when
the Second Auditor at once commenced to
fill them with new clerks. From that time
ur;til the present, the clerical force of the
office has gradually been increased, ur.til
to-day every square foot of space at the
disposal of the Auditor i3 again occupied.
The annexed table will show the progress
that ha3 been male during the past few
months in disposing of 'this class of ac
counts, and how favorably it contrasts
with the progress made a year or a year
and a half ago, when the number of clerks
was much less than it is now, and when
there was no office room for any larger
nuubcr than was then employed. It has
been prepared from the official records:

Total on hand and received 10,120
Xo. of claims disposed of daring the
satye six raoath 31,j30
Op hand January 1, lSOi j) 53,3
An analysis cf the foregoing ngurew w,;
show that the iverage monthly receipts of
claims during tho lat fiscal year was over
0,500; while during the first rix months
of the present fiscal year the average
monthly receipts were but a fraction over
G.O00, or 500 less than last year. And
this latter number, 0,000, may be regarded
as above rather than bclovr the probable
average monthly receipts during the
remaining half of thf current fiscal ye?r
The statement of claims disposed of exhib
its a still mor favorable contract. During
the fi-cal year ending June 80th, 1863,
the average number of claims disposed of
monthly was les3 than 2,000, while the
average number disposed cf monthly dur
ing the first six months of the current
fical year was over 5,000, or more than
t ico and a half times the number settled
during an average month of last year. In
other words, the figures for the first sis
months cf tho present fiscal year show a
decrease or 500 claims upon the average
monthly reedpts of last year, and an
increase of 3,000 per mouth in thcnumbei
audited.
We state explicitly another gratifying
fact. As has already been remarked, from
the commencement of active hostilities in
1SG1 up to the first day of November,
1SG3, the number cf claims received was
largely in excess of the number settled.
And the Eamo proportion applied to the
business of any given month. But during
November tho tables were turned. In
that month the
Number of claims disposed of was
" 14 received was . 5,3'j7
Gain over receipts in November 1.01D
December show3 a still better exhibit.
In that mouth the
Number of claims disposed of was
" " received was
fC0O
Gain over receipts in December 4.3SG
To recapitulate once moro : From
June CO, 1802. to June 30, 1803, the
average number claims received monthly
wa3 G.500 ; the number disposed ot was
not quite 2,000, or less than one in three.
In 'November, 18G3 the diminution of
casualties in the army and tho increase of
clerks had enablel the Second Auditor to
ksettle 1,049 moro claims than were
received, or as six to five ; and in Decem
ber to rett!e 4,380 more claims than were
received, or as eleven to six. At this rate
ot increase, unless a scries of unexpected
disasters should befall our arms, the
entire list of claims now on file .and to be
filed would bo reduced to a comparatively
insignificant number, by the 30th day of
next June, when tho present fiscal year
expires. .
But there 13 a lion in tho way. There
exists an obstruction which cannot be
removed. It has heretofore, delayed the
settlement of claims, and it will delay
their settlement in the future. Wc allude
to the difficulty of obtaining the accounts
of Army Paymasters, in which tho
muster and pay rolls of companies and
detachments are embraced, and without
which the business of the "deal branch"
cannot proceed. These roljs contain the
entries upon which tho clerks of the
Second Auditor base their calculations of
the amount of pay due to deceacd-soldiers,
and which fur n Mi the only evidence upon
which bcuuy can be paid. I is deemed
unnecessary to particularize all the details
of the difficulty attending the procurement
of these rolls. We will simply mention
that, ur.til recently, tm, 'h tc.i and t we're
mouths have usually tla.-qcd ;:ircr the
death of a soldier before the ru'.l contain
ing the only legal evidence :' his d'jath,
and of the amount of pay due to him,
would roaeh the Second Auditor. Tu
reader will at once see trhy, even if the
Auditor had never wanted either clerks or
office room, the widows and other heirs tf
decea-cd soldiers have heretofore had to
wait ten mouths ai.d :x year, and even
longer in s-ome instances, before they
could be paid the kuius due to them by
the Government. The want of clerks and
office room has at Ia?t been partly met.
It is believed also, that, with the recent
increase of clerks in the Paymaster Gen
eral's office, and the adoption of a new
rule, not necessary to explain, in the same
office, the facilities of the Second Auditor
for obtaining rolls will soon be donhl.d
Tha hope is then-fore confidently indulged
that, hereafter, the clerks of t)ic Second
Auditor will not only be abie to "settle
monthly a larger number of claims than
are received, bet, also, that the time
consumed after a soldier's dt-ath before
his heirs can be paid will gradually be
reduced from an average of txdet munthz,
to au average of six mouths.
