Abraham Lincoln.'

FOR -

Andrew Johnson.''"- "- l v The State Uonaljr Bill.

An important measure is now pond-

ing" in tho Ohio Legislature of whichwo think many li;o no just conten-tion.: .'v.'.' . ".": A Bill has already passed tlio Senate,'providing irt effect a Stato bounty ofOne, Hundred Dollars to each veteranvoJuntocr nnd now Meruit, nnd wherelocal bounties liavo been paid by pri-rat- o

subscriptions or corporation tax,tlio money is to bo refunded.

It is estimated that this precious bitof legislation involves increased taxat-

ion- to tlio amount of nearly Eightjamtvnd ur SVvli...... Wl.. In In ,;momborcd that tlio largo bounties paidby tlio gonoral government, are to bepaid y the .people, and that Ohiobears no Insignificant part of the bur-den, it must bo seen bow illy this Stalecan afford l (?uch "prodigjilily as thisixcasurc proposes.

,, As to refunding to those who havesubscribed to; local bounties for theimrpo&c of saving themselves or theirparticular locality from tlio operationsoftht Conscription Act, tho idea shouldnever bo entertained. What theyhave thus paid when properly consid-ered, is but nn insurance against theohanccs of being obliged to pay theSail amount of commutation providedfori tboCwistriplion Act, or of being

bligr J to go into tho ranks, andfihoultl bo viewed as (simply a goad in-

vestment, working no iujuslico or par-

ticular hardship to any oncWearo sorry that stieb persons now

Amii seek o ho relieved still fartherlry a legal enactment,, imposing a taxto refund to them tho money withwhich they huvo Jirocured an immuni-ty against being culled to Borvo theircountry on tho tented field. Wo learnthai the pressure ol petitions from per-

sons who have thus subscribed tobouu-t- y

funds has been very great. We areglad to know that up to this time nopetition has boon sent up from thisSenatorial district and that our .Sena-

tor opposed tho measure to the lastwhile it was pending in tho Senate.Tho bill Is now in tho lloimu wherewo hopo it will receive its ijuiotus.

Bouitflr. KlltmUil.The joint resolution from tho House,

extending tho time for tho payment ofbounties to April 1st, passed thonto Iniit wock. Mr. Wilson in callingit up, read a letter from tho Sccrotmyof War, which stated : .

First That in his opinion the req-

uisite number of troops could bo raisedmoro expeditiously by continuing thepayment of bounties to April 1st, thanby nny other moans.

Second That great exertions arebeing made :ia several Klates to raisetheir quota ly volunteering to avoid adraft, the poople preferring thul modeof raising Ironps.

Third That fiens. llurnsido andHancock, anal Stale iH'gislatureH andExecutives, are earnestly requestingsuch continuance.

Fourth That tho measuro vns wiseand judicious, promotive of public, wel-

fare, nnd cumulated most eflieiciitlyand quickly to strengthen our military forces.

Of course the passtigo of this resolution on such rectjiutueiidnlions involvesthe postponement uf tho draft.

General Kilpalrick decided lo moveacross the While Ilouso Railroad anddown the Peninsula. During the dayCapl. Mitchel, of tho 2d New York,with the bulk ol Dahlgren's commandrejoined tho main column. The cne- -

my on Tuesday night, and all dayWednesday and Wednesday night,hovered about tho command. Skirmishing was almost constantly goingon in different directions. On Wednesday morning, at about 0 o clocklargo lorco of cavalry camo noon therear of the column, uen. JvilpatricKwas not unprepared for this, and tlecitied to give them battle. The 1st Vermont, under Lieut-Col- . Preston, ablyassisted by Capts. brant and oumniings, and tho 1st Maino, boro thebrunt of this fight, which lasted somothing overall hour, wbilo tho Gth Mich-

sary'.Only one charge was mado, and that

was by company A, of tho first Maino,led by Captain Estes, A. A. (i., andCaptain Cole, when fivo of tho ene-

Wo extract tho following from aspeech delivered', by Henry Ward

Beechor at Philadelphia on Tuosday

of last week :

The Chief Magistrates of theso twogreat sections of country aro representatives ol Iho two corresponding priuciples. Davis was formed of aristocratic institutions. All his idens otsociety and of government aro aristocratic, for the South was but nominally republican. Himself a man Of experience in public alliurs, ot greatadministrative talent, with a quickoyo and firm hand, with a great willpower, r, with nothing sub-

tracted from it to ' tho credit of conscience's sako jlaaghtor,l - ho has justthat HuilKy wliioh is called sharp, keen.He is an adroit. man. Ho is a cunningstatesman. Now, at tho beginuing,almost every ono udmircd and enviedhim. AVo granted 'that tho test sidehad only a dull, honest man, and theworst side such a keen, shrewd manuger; and it wns often said in the firstyear, ''Let us havo their Prosident,and givo them ours, and wo'll whipthem in three months.'" Put, I think,no mun has heard that said within tholast year. Laughter and npplause.lWho believes now in Davis' Bagacity,in his statesmanship, liis cunninghas ruined him. Men laugh atoutcoming of thoso very projectswhich they admire in their conception.. There was never in civil annalsso gigantic a blunder as Southernstatesmen havo made. They havoirretrievably ruined themselves bythoir moves, and mllicted vast evil ontheir countrymen, nnd immeasurabledamago on their Stales, and this iswhat they havo to show for cunningstatesmanship cunning nnd notwiso.Mr. Lincoln is not cunning but ho is

wise, and wisdom tells m the long runJreat npplause.l Jut. Lincoln is s

man of tlio people. Ho wns formedby Democracy into a Democrat. Hobelieved in it with" a child-lik- o sim-

plicity of faith, as if ho didn't knowthcro was anything clso in tho world.He camo to tho Presidency byonootthoso happenings which men callchance, and Christian Providence,without ono singlo gilt which poetryadd aristocracy associato with a supremo loader of a nation.

an farmers, not a point was there forromance. ith natural snrowuncsswith somo cxperionco in tho administration' of public affairs, not skillfulhowever, in discerning or selectingmen. and thon too kind always to putdown a tool which by' mistake ho hadtaken up, ho has been tor three yearslearning to govern,' and though somowhat dull, ho has stuck to his lessonsnight and day, with such ; diligencethat now, at least, Jeff Davis couldteach him nothing applause while

tho other hand X'rcsulcnt lnn- -

coln could teach Jeff Davis a goodinuny things; (applause) among othersthat honest principles, bravely adhered

Ho is honest, conseietitious, single-minde- .disinterestedly 'seeking thoweMaro ol tho nationfirst, tho party next, and of himselfnot at all. (Applauso.)

good administration of a Governmentrequires only good common senso amuncommon honesty.. (Laughter anilapplause.) That is all. Instead of'cuuiring genius, instead or requiring

rare and extraordinary qualities, it requires just those qualities which mostlolitieiuns saenhee in order to got

government common sense and lionesly. (Applause.) This is a lessonfor Kuropo to ponder over. Now, thatit is so, wo would not bavo had oiir'resident any other. It ho had been

an accomplished scholar, and learneby travel and experience ; if ho hadhad every conceivablo gill that, coulddaz.le the imagination or touch thoheart, men would say good leadershipgavo us the victory ; but now men cansay the people's power, thro' the President, gave the victory. (Applause.)Our President has been made, tho buttot ridicule of our newspapers, lind ofderision among tho exalted olUciu-l-

(haughtcr.)Hut it is our pride, howover, lo showthese people that wo have carriedthrough this terrific struggle, the likeof which F.uropo nover knew, not bytho skill of any extraordinary genius.Thov took a man lrom among themselves, a real man of tho people, aplain, simple;, homely man, unit thisvictory of liberty-lovin- g Democracyhas been achieved under tho leadership of ono of theso Pemocrnts.When Blavory was destroyed, H

was well trial' it should navo vnovery best leadership, that uo .manshoud say. it was owing to badmanagement. It 'has been managedadmirably; cxtiaordinary skill andcourage havo been shown in tho man-

agement of tho causo. If. Davis couldnot save slavery nobody could, andhercaftor they cannot say that thoDemocracy Tf tho North was notguided by a Democratic President, orthat tho aristocracy, ot tno roum wasnot guided by an anstocrauo A resi-dent. This groat conflict, then, wasbetween aristocratio and DemocraticPresidents, which represented tho twosections ot tho country. lucy had,throughout thoir history, carriedout tho respective natures of aristocratand Democrat.
