Abolitionists Won't fight.

--Contrary to expectation, says the Boston Post, the Western Reserve, the well known Abolition corner of the State of Ohio, has thus far responded but feebly to the call for troops. Thanks to the efforts of Senator Wade and others, who endeavored to explain and sugar over this unlooked for dilatorinesses in various ways, Governor Dennison has been preventing the mustering into the service of the United States of regiments raised in other quarters of the State, in order to give the Abolition corner a chance. The War Department has become tired of this, and the Secretary has dispatched a letter to the Governor of Ohio requesting him not to wait any longer for dilatory citizens, but to receive the regiments from Cincinnati, already organized, drilled and equipped, and clamorous for the war.
