It appears that the draft in New York city will now take place, Seward notwithstanding. Says the Herald: "A draft has been ordered to take place on Monday, September 19, in Ohio and other States whose quota has not been filled up. It is also ordered to be proceeded with, this morning in the Twelfth and Thirteenth districts of this State in accordance with the President's proclamation of July 18." The Herald says that it is reported at St. Louis that about fifteen thousand rebels are concentrating at the mouth of the Red river apparently for some hostile purpose yet undisclosed. William McDonald, a man of great wealth, and the owner of the celebrated trotting nag, Flora Temple, died at his residence, near Baltimore, on the night of the 6th, in the thirty-fifth year of his age.

as he had observed that some persons had lately injured themselves very much by plain speaking." Seward also made a speech, in which, the following related to his Auburn promise about the draft: Fellow-citizens: In a speech I made at Auburn, I said there should be no draft, because the army is being reinforced by five to ten Auburn, I said there should be no draft, because the army is being reinforced by five to ten thousand volunteers per day. The people of Auburn understood me, and cleared the district of their draft by volunteering.

It appears to us, then, that if the Democratic party make a fight for power, they must do it substantially on principles of peace, and the events of the next few weeks will probably enable us to anticipate the result. The London Army and Navy Gazette says: Pending the great Presidential contest in the North, on which the attention of all men in America is fixed, as upon its result hangs the issue of peace or war for the year 1865, nothing so decisive has occurred lately in the history of the war as to determine the choice of the electors towards one candidate or another. The negative results of the campaign are an argument for the peace Democrats. * * * * The men of the North have now to decide upon their future — to choose between four years more of ruin and disaster or peace and separation from a people which only wish to be left alone. A little calm reflection and looking back upon the past will surely convince t

that he has hitherto relied for support. But this adoption of the war on the part of one political section leaves the other with the alternative but to adopt, in some shape or other, a policy of peace. It may be transformed or concealed under various disguises, but to this end it must come at last. If the Republicans, with their unsparing efforts, could do nothing against the South, it is not to be imagined that the Democrats, with their half-and-half policy, could do any more. If McClellan is to be their champion, we know already what may be expected. The armies of the North would be more prudently handled, and, after a check, would be more expeditiously withdrawn; but they would certainly make no more impression on the South than the armies of Grant or Hooker.

The London Times cannot believe that Grant, whom it calls "a pertinacious General that no number of reverses seems sufficient to check," can intend a movement against Richmond up the north side of the river, but rather thinks that he will attempt, by such a movement, to reduce Drewry's Bluff. The same paper, on the Presidential election in the United States, says: If the Federals win — if Grant takes Richmond; Sherman, Atlanta; and Farragut, Mobile; --we may anticipate that the peace party will be discouraged, and their opponents enabled to prosecute the war. If, however, the Confederates win, and the Federals experience any signal disaster, the war party will be overpowered, while a similar result would probably follow even if neither party won, and things remained exactly as they are. This is the strong point in favor of the South. If they can only prevent the balance from being turned decisively against them, the advantage

Nobody can well anticipate that Mr. Lincoln would be re-elected without a contest, or that contest could be otherwise than desperate. But a desperate contest implies conflicting principles, and Mr. Lincoln's principles have been distinctly pronounced. His policy, as at present avowed,Mr. Lincoln's principles have been distinctly pronounced. His policy, as at present avowed, is war — war "to the bitter end — and it is on the party professing similar views that he has hitherto relied for support.
