THE PRESIDENTIAL WBCTWW.
Abraham Lincoln is rc-elected Pres
ident by a very large Electoral and
Mill more dcciaive Popular majority.
He can no longer be taunted as a mi
nority President, and no practical
question can arise as to the counting
of the votes of dubious States, lie is
North-western and other Rebel-para-
site Confederacies. His Administra
tion is stamped with popular approba
tion, and he may now go on with the
work of subduing Rebellion, while re
storing and paoifying the Union.
With four clear years before him, it is
hardly possible that he should not suc
ceed.
Andrew Johnson is likewise elected
circumstances into one of the most de
termined, effective enemies of the Reb
el Slave Power. The country has few
sounder or purer patriota than Vice
President Hamlin, whom we shall
spare from public life with regret but
be could give place to no man worthi
er, better or more acosptable than An
drew Johnson.
We have carefully scanned the elec
tion returns and can assure our read

Will Vegroes Fight for Slavery
After deriding the employment of
the negro as a soldier, the Southern
press is now urging the rebel govern
ment so to employ him. Ater ridicul
ing the policy of tempting him to our
armies by the pledge of freedom, that
press now insists that freedom be of
fered him as an inducement to fight
in the rebel cause. After often and
emphatically declaring freedom ouly a
curse, and slavery solely a blessing
to the negro, the secession philoso
phers now eloquently portray the pro
priety of rewarding the fighting ne
gro with freedom After laying down
•lavery as the corner stone of their
model government, they propose with
freedom to pay their slaves for becom
ing soldiers for that government!
Such is the coherence of the logic
of slavery's rebellion against popular
and free institutions. How thorough
ly has the course of events demonstra
ted the absurdity of those theories on
tohich the corrupt casuists of the
feonthern political and theological
schools have attempUi lo jnstify
their insurrection 1
At laat the chivalry recognize in
the negro the elements of a heroic
manhood. This is a great confession
for the Southern mind. Northern men
liave long almost universally regard
ed mere animal courage as far from
the highest of the qnalitics that enli
lie their possessor to esteem aud to
freedom. In the laud of the duelist,
the New England idea of moral cour
tage, and the snperiori ty of honest toil,
liave been scouted at and despised,
and the free laboring masses sneered
at as mud-sills," fit ouly to be own
ed as property. To-day the Southern
er has come to accord to his slave the
pessession of those qualities on which
he had been taught to pride himself
as superior to the Northerner—the
qualities that make the soldier—and
to acknowledge that the display of
those qualities in exercise entitles
their possessor to freedom How long
a step in advance will it be to admit
that the having those qnalities proves
that he who has them was designed
by nature to be free

Something of this mould the haugh
ty slave aristocracy, through their
own experience of weakness, are be
ginning to discover in the down-trod
den black man. Failing in their fight
for the sweet privilege of keeping
their foot upon his race, they offer to
withdraw the heel of tyranny from

The Washington Star of the 19th
ssys that it deems it not improper at
this tiuae to state that Gcu. Sherman's
army has beeu heavily reinforced and
otherwise strengthened, especially in
the arm of cavalry, all his dismounted
men having been remounted. The
force uuder Gen. Thomas, now in
Hood's front, has also been satisfacto
rily reiuforced and strengthened, and
is amply sufficient to insure that Hood
can do no damage to speak of iu Ten
nessee or Kentucky, which seems to
be his aim.
The news from Grant's army brings
intelligence of a smart repulse to the
rebels on Saturday, on the old fighting
ground before Petersburg, with a loss
so severe to them, that they have
since obtaiued a truce to bury their
dead. Grant is strong, qniet, confi
dent, and the rebels cannot shake him
off, nor looseu his grip.
The rebels are getting disgusted
with the war. They now begin to
advocate a convention of the States
for the settlomeut of the difficulty.

Our Duty.
We deem it our duty to keep con
stantly before our readers that most I
valuable of all medicines, known as
Coo's Cough Halsam. It has stood tho
tests of time and experiment, and all
who use it speak in the most praise
worthy terms of its medicinal valnc.!
It is the real duty of every parent to
keep a constant supply of it in tho i
house, ready for immediate use. Not
only is it a moRt splendid remedy for
coughs, sudden colds, influenza, croup,
and all throat complaints, bnt it is the
consumptive's great relief. When
they are SO far gone that no-medicine
will ever cure them, Coe's Cough Bal
sam will be found an invnlnable friend
to allay the coughing, help the expec
toration, and ease the sufferer. Why
will ye that arc suffering from coughs,
colds, croup, sore throat, hoarseness
and that aro liable to pulmonary at
tacks, not take our advice, and pro
vide yourself with a supply of Coe's
Cough. Balsam—the best and cheapest
Cough Balsam in the world. It costs
but forty cents, and can be found up
on the counter* of druggists every

Harvey Sickler, Esq., the able edit
or of the Tunlhafinock [Pa.] Democrat,
publishes the following in his issue of
30th Oct., 1861
We deem it dne to Messrs. J. C.
Ayer & Co., and the pnblic, to make
known our experience with the nse of
their Ext. SAns.APARii.iji in our family,
by stating the circumstances under
which it was taken and its effects.
When our only child, now in his
third year, was about eight months
old, a sore appeared first in small
pimples on his forehead over his nose.
These rapidly increased and uniting
formed a loathsome, virulent sore,
which finally spread over his forehead
and face, not even excepting bin eye
lids, which became so swollen that his
eyes were closed. We called a skill
ful physician, who administered the
usually prescribed remedies. A solu
tion of nitrate of silver was applied
until the mass of corruption which
covered his entire face turned jet
black. The sore again and again
burst through the scorched and artifi
cial skin formed by this solution.
Meanwhile man}* remedies were em
ployed without any apparent benefit.
For fifteen days and nights lie was
constantly held by his parents to keep
him from tearing open with Ins hands
the corrupt mass which covered his
face.
Everything having failed, we were
induced by the high recommendations
of Ay^'i's Sarsaparilla for the cure of
Scrofulous disease, to give it a trial.
In his treatise on Scrofula, Dr. Ayer
directs a mild solution of Iodide of
Potash to be nsed as a wash while tak
ing the Sarsaparilla, and it was faith
fully applied. Before one bottle of
Sarsaparilla had been given the sore
had lost much of its virulence aud
commenced to heal. Another bottle
effected an entire cure, and the general
prediction that the child must die was
contradicted. His eyelashes which
came out, grew agaiu, and his face is
left without a scar, as smooth as any
body's. It is unnecessary for me to
state in how high esteem we hold
Ayeb's Sarsapahm.ia.
