THE DAILY PRESS.
MKTUXD, Hum.
Tuesday Mornhfe, Dot. 7, l««2,
DewwMH Progress gl the Advertiser.
It is not because we find pleasure in obtru
ding the tiame of a contemporary joom-d up
ou the renders of the Press, that we again re
fer to the Advertiser, but because the doc
trines fStenlly enunciated in that journal are
of such a character that we should be guilty of
dereliction of duty, did we fail to expose their
lasidious character, and their tendeucy to un
aettle all the firm foundations of the republic.
In that paper of the dill inst. is an article of
more than two columns in length, the author
ship of which is uitmistakcnble, upon the "Ten
dencies of Abolitionism to revive party dis
tinctions." To a few brief extracts from that
article we iuvite careful attcution.
It may be proper to premise in this connec
tion that, by abolitionism, Uie Advertiser re
fers to no such doctrines as those of Phillips
and Garrison of by-gone days; that kind of
abolitionism which would by its hands upon
the institutions of loyal states, or the property
of loyal citizens of loyal stab's, against their
will and iu the face of flieir protestations;not
that kind of abolitionism which, regarding the
Constitution as the bulwark of slavery, would
thrust it aside as “a covenant with death and an
agreement with hell,” but by “abolitiotiism,”
the Advertiser means that feeiiiig of dcteruii
uatiou which, believing slavery to be the great
pillar of the prescul rebellion, w ould direct
ituft.loum t/v .....Inonslnn .....I n>o..tw.n ..*.11...
so that in bringing it to the ground, the rebel
lion which rusts upon it may cotue to the
ground also. In the Advertiser's category
every man who is anxious or willing to see
' slavery destroyed that the Union may be sav
ed, and slaveholders punished to vindicate
the supremacy of the Law, is an abolitionist;
and to iusist upon the enlorcemeut of ull
measures needful to uphold the government,
regardless of their reactionary influence up
on slavery, is abolitiouism. We believe all
who have carefully read the leaders iu the Ad
vertiser for the last week or ten days, will
agree that the definitions here given are nei
ther far-fetched, nor uiynst to the paper re
ferred to.
Passiug over much of the article in the Ad
vertiser of yesterday, iu which is quoted cer
tain resolutions of Congress passed unani
mously more than a year ago, we tlud the fol
lowing :
Notwithstanding these explicit announce
ments of the ualional heart, and of the subsi
dence of all party views and purposes in the
paramount obligations to defend the Union and
the Constitution, it was observable, and remark
ed, throughout the free States, and with both
regret and astonishment, that when volunteers
to the war were called for by the Federal and
State governments, to meet lhe exigencies of
the Republic, not a human abolitionist, in any
State, entered the ranks anywhere.'
The italics in the above are not ours. We
have Introduced the paragraph only to sho^
the readiness of this calumniator of the Re
publican party to adopt, with increased empha
sis, the stale slang that has been passed from
mouth to mouth through all the vile sheets of
the laud, which hare been more anxious to apol
% ogixe tor treason than to subdue it; more
zealous to put down alleged abolitionists limn
to overthrow armed rebellion.
First assuming that ull who are opposed
to slavery, or who prefer iu downfall to the
downfall of tile Republic, are abolitiliouists,
he then declares that not one of these, “not
a human abolitionist," has entered the army;
repeating, as we have intimated, the stale slang
that the soldiers are all Democrats; that the
Republicans, haviug got the country into a
war, refuse to fight for its deliverance; an al
legation which has sometimes assumed a taunt
ing form of expression, pointing stieeriugly to
the wide-awxkes of 1800, and asking where
they are in the hour of danger; falsely assum
ing, because they lay aside their party badges,
and because they do not swaggeringly storm
the recruiting offices with the torch-light and
regalia ol a political campaign, that they do
not contribute their full quota to swell the
ranks of the Union army.
Remembering what the Advertiser means by
abolitionism, we ask the readers’ careful at
tention to the following: <
The President has at length yielded to this
abolition demand for an emancipation war pol
icy, so far as to announce, by proclamation, his
purpose to proclaim all slave* in rebellious
States, on the first of January next, forever
thereafter free; and that he should then in
struct the miliury and naval forces thence
forth to enforce this new war policy.
In a word, abolitionism has the promise of
domiuatiou iu the Executive councils of the
nation, after New Year's Day, and alike over
the slaves of loyal and disloyal citizens of the
South; and the innocent and the guilty slave
holders are to share one cominou penalty for
the cure aud punishment of Southern rebel
lion!
Here we have the plainly implied declara
tion that the President has succumbed to fa
nuvu •, nuu mibv m iivuui ill UUiaUG 19U1 IS WJ I Uit!
the hour, and to shape the course of the Gov
ernment; and it is but a few days since tlie
same writer whispered the foul thought into
the soldier’s ear, that he was to be “sacrificed
to an oligarchy of fanaticism"/ If the de
sign of such language and such dark liiuts is
not to stir up the soldiery to a revolt, and, in
the event of failure to accomplish his purpose
''through his appeal to the ballot-box, to invite
the ascendency of a military despotism in
place of tlie civil administration now iu pow
er, then we utterly fail to comprehend tlie pur
poses which now shape the course and give
tone to the voice ol the Advertiser. We
thiuk others take the same view. This very
day, eveu since we commenced to pen this ar
ticle, gentlemen who assured us they had tak
en that paper and paid for it,—in one Instance
twenty-five, iu another forty-five, and in anoth
er sixty years,—have said to us substantially,
that, disagreeable as it was to part with such
an old friend,—almost a household god,—it
was more disagreeable to take a daily dose of
treasonable doctriues, and they had made the
sacrifice.
The following sentence we quote simply to
show how cavalierly i\ O. J. S. disposes of
the Bepublican party, treating it not as an
existing organization, but simply as a thing of
the past:
These differences in relation to the power
of the government to punish rebels] are, day
by day, being elaborated in argument, and are
manilesting themselves iu the revival ol party
distinction*, not only iu the ranks, but outside
of the ranks, of the late Bepublican party in
every free .State.
We ask tlie reader carefully to notice tlie
following, pariicularly the words w hich we
have put iu italics:
This rampant spirit of abolitionism, having
succeeded in obtaining the ear, and directing
tbe policy,of the President, and in guiding
henceforth the conduct of the tear to the one
all-absorbing purpose of abolishing slavery
forever in the Southern States, could not hut
of a dead certainty tend to arouse the slumber
ing antagonism and resentments of both the
conservative Kepubticatis ami of every shade
of the old Democratic party throughout the
free States, and tan into new lile ami into re
vived organizations, these subsided elements
of parly, to act in like opposition to ahoiuiou
isui, il not conjunctively as one party to that
end.
If the President has determined henceforth
to guide “the conduct of the war to the one
all-absorbing purpose of abolishing slavery for
■ ——BWBB—BB——BBBBB—BBBBBBBBBM
peer in the Southern States,” we suppose the
very consistent gentleman who edits the Ad
veati-er, will hack down from his recently
ennneiiited doctrine, that the President's proc
lamation was intended simply to suspend the
operation of the institution, and not to abolieh
it; which he so ingeniously illustrated by sup
posing the destruction of a toll-bridge w ithout
affecting the validity of the charter under
which it was erected.
The following sentence exhibits the future
elutus of tile Advertiser, and shows of what
party or elements it proposes to be the organ:
In this new revival of parties, thus forced
nnwisely upon the nation by the Abolition par
ty, and thus unwisely, as we think, yielded to
by tlie President, we shall be found, with the
Advertiser, siding irith the conitercalice tciny
of the Itepublican party, now and forever, for
good or for evil, ami at all costs and at all haz
ards.
We are glad the public is thus informed
where to llud the Avertiser, but if it is found
with any wing of the republican party we
think it ha» got to occupy different ground
from that which it has now taken. Au organ
without an organization will be more anomal
ous than a General without an army. It will
be interesting to wituess the progress of
events, ami see what hue the chatnelion w ill
next assume. But a few weeks since it was
the President's most zealous sUpporter,and its
editor, in a City Hall speech. Compared Abra
ham Lincoln to the good Samaritan sent to
liitiil lin hiuI Iwnl flu> n.'itinnV ummtk \mw
Mr. Lincoln is abandoned to fanaticism, be
cause he lias forewarned the rebel States that
he shall accept the rt ry alternatin' mentioned
in his letter to Greeley, upon which the Ad
vertiser man was commenting in the siteech
alluded to, when he referred to the President’s
Samaritan qualities.
To show how closely the Advertiser is now
hugging the track laid down by the last Dem
ocratic Convention which met iu this city, and
which was engineered by such pure patriots
as Virgil D. Parris, Marcellus Emery, Joitu
Balaton, Henry Hudson, Gorham L. Boynton,
and others of that ilk, who were the tools of
the late tlrm of Davis, Floyd, Cobb & Co.,—
wholesale and retail dealers iu rebellion,—we
place below iu parallel columns, without com
ment, the leading resolution of that Conven
tion, and a full paragraph from yesterday’s
Advertiser; not to show the sameness of lan
guage, but to exhibit the similarity of seuti

Letter from the State Capital.
Augusta, Oct. 6,1802.
Editors Press :—In mentioning in my last
the appointment ol Mr. Hathaway as State
Agent at Washington, to look after tlie wants
and interests of the Maine soldiers, I should
have added that Mr. Hathaway patriotically
offers his services without coui|>enaaliou. For
some time there lias been need of such an
agent, and the appointment of Mr. Hathaway
is an excellent one. Our soldiers, whether
sick or in any way necessitous, will llnd in
him a zealous and efficient friend.
Col. Wildes, of the 16th Regiment, has been
restored to his command; consequently, pro
motions made on the ground of the Colonel’s
resignation are revoked.
One hundred and fffty recruits leave to-day
for our regiments in Virginia and Maryland,
and for the 8th Regiment at Port Royal, and
the 9th at Fernandina.
The cases of measles in Cainp Halleck are
decreasing.
Four companies from Camp Pope at Bangor
arrived here to-day to till up the 29th Regi- I
ment at Canto Keves. Thev will be mustered !

Apples for the Hospitals.
Central Office, Sanitary Commission,
Washington, October 2d, 1862.
The inquiry being frequently made whether
the Commission wishes to recieve apples for
the use ot the wounded, it should immediately
I be published, as widely as possible, that dried
apples cannot be sent to its de))Ots in too large
quantities. Town and village Relief Societies
are requested to make arrangements for par
ing. cutting,and drying by their members, and
such volunteer assistance as they can enlist,
and to notify farmers that they will recieve
such good fruit as they may be disposed to of
fer and are unable themselves to properly pre
pare. Dried apples may Ik' sent in barrels or
] boxes, or in strong bags marked “To be kept
dry.” Dried fruits of other kinds, and all good
canned fruits, will Ire very acceptable.

(From the Providence Journal ]
The Proclamation In the Army.
We have not yet heard of a single resigna
tion in the army or navy on account of the
proclamation, though on its appearance it was
confidently predicted by some that it would
cost us many of our most valuable officers.
Nor have we heard that the proclamation has
caused any visible discontentor dissatisfaction
among the soldiers, though we were told that
l large number of the rank and file would
throw down their muskets as soon as they
read it. It is clear that either our soldiers and
seamen have different ideas of military and
naval duty from those which were ascribed to
them by the prophets of evil, or else their prej
udices against interfering with slavery are not
so deep-seated as some men sup|M>sed. We
are inclined to think that both suppositions
are true. The discipline in our service must
be strict enough to lead inferiors to obey the
orders of their superiors. The political no
tions which were prevalent among many of
the officers at the beginning of the war, like
those ora great part of the nation, have un
dergone an essential change. In the regular
army probably a large majority of the officers
were at the outbreak of the rebellion Demo
crats, and most of them Breckenridge Demo
crats, prejudiced against any interference with
slavery. An officer who cherished other sen
tAcuts was socially tabooed by his associates.
This was not surprising. But not a few of
these very officers have greatly modified their
opinions during the last twelve months. The
number of men in the north who hail any de
sire or intention of striking a blow at slavery
when the war began was very small. But the
experiences of the past year have taught them,
and have taught with special emphasis those
who have been in the field, that slavery is a
great source of strength to the rebels, and that
ifit stands in the way of the maintenance of
the Union and the government, it is entitled
to no favor, hut must be removed like any
other obstacle. Hence several of our generals
who are most earnestly advocating the libera
tion and the employment of the negroes, are
men who were prominent Democrats when
<l.« ...k-.III.A. 1_1.A T_l-t_..A At-- ... A
ter Irom a military point of view, they have
come to the conclusion that if we can cripple
the rebellion by striking at slavery,it behooves
us to strike. It is evident that these senti
ments widely prevail in the army and the navy.
The naval officers have indeed constantly re
ceived blacks ou board the ships, and employ
ed them. The soldiers, weary of digging
trenches in miasmatic swamps, welcome the
help ot tile acclimated negro. And the gal
lant fellows in the army ami the navy are not
so anxious to prolong the war that they are
unwilling to see the “comer stone” of the
Southern Confederacy shaken and removed,
that the edifice which rebellious hands have
been rearing upon it may totter and fall, and
overwhelm it* builders in its ruins.
The Advertiser Complimented.
The Bangor Times, a loyal independent pa
per, under the bead ol “Preaching Treason in
Maine,” says:
We had supposed that the Saco Democrat
alone enjoyed the “had eminence” of preaching
treason against the Government, but we regret
to find we were mistaken. The old Portland
Advertiser, which has until recently lieen the
leading Republican organ in this State, and
whose nominal editor openly declared for
emancipation, not four mouths since, came out
the other day w ith a philosophical and scrip
tural justification of slavery; but not content
with that, on the Wednesday following the
President's Emancipation Proclamation it ut
tered the most bold, unblushing denunciations
of the President and the Government which
have been printed North ol Mason and Dixon’s
line since the lelwllion commenced. That we
may do no injustice, we quote from long arti
cles some of the most outrageous declarations,
as follows:
Alter giving extracts from the Advertiser to
back up the above, the Times adds:
We commend the above assurances to the
speedy attention of the provost marshal; for
if such rebellious outpourings are to go un
noticed, then tile whole business of suppress
ing journals lor disloyal utterances is a sheer
and arrant humbug, which should lie imme
diately done away with:
The Ellsworth American, a Republican pa
per, says:
Hon. Francis O. J. Smith, who owns the
Portland Advertiser, and perhaps the editor
too, has written some shameful and treasona
ble articles as editorials for that old and here
tofore highly respectable paper. The Gov
ernment sliould send him to live on hard
bread aud water in some Fort, or else, what
would be better, make him tight Jetf Davis’s
soldiers. How many republican or Union
man can continue to take the Advertiser is
past our comprehension. Let all true Union
men avoid it.
“The Union as it was.”
Hon. A. J. Hamilton, recently a member of
Congress from Texas, and a thoroughly Union
man, recently escaped fruui that liot-bed of
treason which produces such fellows os Wig
fall, and in Brooklyn, a few evenings since, he
made a speech, aud at the risk of being de
nounced for disloyally to the modern demo
caatic creed, we give the following extract:
And now, fellow citizens, the question is, is
it proper, is it practicable, to restore tilings us
they were ? It is a fashionable term here to
say, “We are for the Constitution as it is, and
for the Union as it was.” The Constitution os
it is! Yes. The Union as it was! No. (This
was said with much feeling aud earnestness,
aud drew down tumultuous applause.) I in
voke tlie aid of the loyal people in restoring
the Government of the United States. But,
lellow citizens, if you had the power, and were
to tender to me to-night the restoration of the
Union as it existed in the Stale of Texas in
11*01,1 would not thank you for the boon. If,
because I cannot measure my own conscience
or judgment with those of my ucighbor, or of
a majority of my neighbors, I am to be looked
upon with coolness, suspicion aud aversion;
if I am to be insulted and spit upon by the
children of my neighbors, whom 1 may have
dandled on my knees, thinking that they
would, at least, remember me with kindness as
their father’s neighbor aud friend; it I am to
be looked upon as something loathsome, be
cause I cannot believe that slavery is the be
ginning and end of all legitimate government;
if, above all, I cannot say w lutl I believe, that
there are excesses aud abuses in respect to
that institution which ought to be looked to;
if, in short, because I might say what Wash
ington said, believing it, w hat Jefferson wrote,
aud what all the good aud great men of that
day believed, I am to be stigmatized as a trai
tor, and made to suffer a "traitor's doom; if
that is to be the result of the “Union as it was,”
I want no such Union.

the change of the circumstances to which they

General Mitchell culled in the commanding ‘
officers of nil regiments and detachments at
this post, this morning at nine, and alter par
ticular inquiries concerning their forces and
the tetn|>cr of the men, gave us a speech of
more than half an hour on the slavery question,
which it was wisely said, could not but wilt
ail sorts of men over to his ground. He took
the position that we must conquer slavery, or
it will conquer us. He considered it now a
war for life or death with slavery, and thinks
the nation committed, by the legislation of
Congress, to the destruction ol slavery. He
thinks this the only ground upon which the
North can unite, and unless it does unite upon
that, it is lost. He will arm slaves and man
age plantations. He will pursue as radical
a policy as Hunter—and,so far,promises to be
a sagacious ruler for us.

military Expedition to Texas.
Attempted Escape of an English Steamer
Libelled for $30,000.
LEE'S ARMY IN FULL RETREAT.
New York, Oct. 6.
Col. Hamilton, of Texas, is urged for Milita
ry Governor of Texas, with Cassius M. Clay
as commander, the two to go together with a
division of soldiers and 50.U00 armed citizens.
The expedition is projected to co-operate with
Eli Thayer's to Florida. Five thousand men
have already offered themselves to Thayer, and
a wealthy ship owner of New York proffers
three first class steamers for the enterprise.
The British steamer Despatch was libelled
some time ago in a civil suit for $30,000, and
placed in the custody of deputy U. S. Mar
shals Koebuck and Withered and Marshal
Murray. In consequence of yellow fever
breaking out among the crew, the officers
were obliged to leave the vessel, and by order
of the Marsha! they left her under charge of a
revenue cutter, the commauder of which was
not to let her escape.
On Friday night Capt. Buck, of the Des
patch, went on l«>ard the cutter and told her
commauder that he was going to sea. and that
they might tire at him and be damned, and be
would have to sink him and twenty-six souls
besides before lie would stop. On Saturday
morning be got up stcum and proceeded down
the bay. The cutter tired three or lour shots
at her which she did not heed, when the fort
was signalled. Two shots were tired at her
bow from Fort Lafayette, the second almost
grazing her. The Despatch then hove to un
der llic guns of tlie fort, and yesterday was
towed buck to quarantine and anchored under
the revenue cutter L'rawlbrd.
The Washington correspondent of the World
says it is coiitldeiitly reported here to-day that
Gen. Lee's army is in full retreat.
The Times’ correspondence says it is report
ed that the new nine months regiments now
being raised in Massachusetts are to he sent to
North Carolina, where there arc other regi
ments from the old Bay State.
"While Gov. Andrew has been, and is
now, devoting ail his energies to meet the calls
of the Government, and to ameliorate the con
dition of tlie sick and wounded soldiers of his
State, the political hyenas of the Courier and
Post school are constantly hounding him be
cause lie don t believe in negro slavery, and
has the manliness to say so. To kill off aboli
tionists is a more grateful work for them than
to put down rebellion But they will not
succeed. Andrew will live to chant Te Deums
over their political sepulchres, which, beauti
ful as they may be made without, will be filled
with dead men’s bones, and all uncleauness.
