We tovo all heard of tho man who wanted
to live till every body woi dead, and then
dd keep Tavern • When tho whole
oouoUy is bankrupt, tho last man killed,
and Senator Suunbk stripped of bis panta-

ua, to know where a "otirity fund" could

It is Buoh Mtuft as this, that is thrown off
tho foul etotnacbs of the abolitionists, time
aud tgain, to amuae theoountry, while the
arroj of tbievoa "spoken of" by Mr. Da WES,

We havo heard so much of favoritiaro
from timo to time in army appointments,
more and pure couvincod that
the old volontoer syatem— that whioh the
constitution of Ohio dirrfts, would have
'., than Ibo pyatem of or-
gauiziog volunteer tumiiiiuiea adopleJ at
Washington. It is in fact neither one thing
nor the other, and when wo called ntlontion
to it, now nenr nine months ago, very few
would believe 11.

lu a groat many inaluuues, tbo tuoling
was HO strong, that the appointing powers,
for there upponrod to be lii"i of them, found
neoesHary to yield, and commiasion the
officers designated by tho companies ond
regimenls. And we take a pride in point-
ing to these very officers, iu what is railed
tho volunteer service, ivlin were really ae-
lected by the privalo aoUiiera tkemselvesi
md who would he satisfie.l with no one olae,
if Ihey havo not in every instance, borne
themRelvcH as bravely nod auocesafully, as
when the eoldiere' tviahes were discarded,
aud the favorite of tho appointing power se-
lected, in disregard of tlie eoldiora' dosiros?
■Some of our very best volunteer regi-
meutd, tbo bravest and most sucoeesful, are
led by men of their own choice. We
could point lo many i>f llus description, as
proof of ivhat wo eay. In such cases there
ia a common intortial of feeling, an attach-
ment higher than the mere disoipUno of tbe
law, and all foci a common glory in their
achiovomenta in tbo hour of strife, and a
common interest in each other's welfare in
camp.

In this there is a power and safety which
ia the great aeoret of the volunteer success
ia arms. It ia iho community of feeling,'
of fellowship, of Bolf-confidenco, each for
himself, and all for each other, whioh gains
force, onorgy and often invincibility to
unleors. Take this away nnd they
neither regulars nor volunleera — lacking
tbo rompactneaa of tbe ow and tho dasb
and nimldoncss of tbo other.

We have been led to theao reuarki

THE CRISIS, JANUARY 29, 1862.

PRESIDENT lACKSON'S VETO MESSAGE,

Od Uie Bill f<

To THE Senate:

Tho bill to ■'iiioJifj' and continuo ■' tlie
act entitled " An net to incorpornto tbo aub-
aoribcra of tbo Bank of tUo United Slutes."
iras preaonteil to ine on tbo fourth of July
instant. Horing considered it with that
solemn regard to tbo prinoiplea of tbo Con-
stitDtion which tho tiny was cBloulnled to
inEpiie, and eomo to tho conoluwon that it
ongbt not to beoonio a law, 1 bcrewlth re-
torn it to tho Sfnatp, in which it originated.
nith my objections.

A bulk of tbo United States is, in many
roapects, oonvenlont for tho government,
uid useful to tho pcoplo. Enlortaining thia
opinion, nnd deeply iwpveaaed ivilh the be-
lief, that some of thii powcra and privilegoa
pOBBPEsed by tho eiistiog Bank, nro unau-
tborizod by tho CooBtitution, aubverflivu of
tho rigbta of tlio States and dangerous to
tho liberties of tho people. I felt it my daty,
at an early period of my adroinietration, to
ooll the attention of CoDgreas to the prao-
ticobllity of organizing an institution com-
bining all its advantages, and obriatiog
those objeolioDS. I sincerely rcgnjt that, in
tho not beforo me, I can perceive none of
thfiBO modificAtiona of tho bank oboilor
wbioh are necessary, iumyopiuiou, to rook o
it compntiblo with justice, with sound poli-
cy, or with tbo Constitution of our country.
The prcGCnt corporato body, denomina-
ted tho president, direotoia and compauy of
tho bank of tho United Statea, will havo ci-
isled, at the lioio thi^actia intended to take
effect, twenty years. It enjoys an oiclu-
sivo privilege of banking, under the author-
ity of the General Government, a monopoly
of its favor and support, and, aa a necessa-
ry consequence, almost a monopoly of the
foreign and domestio exohange. Tbo pow-
ers, privileges and favors beetowed upon it,
in tho original charter, by iuoreaatcig the
Tnluoof its stock far above ita par valuo,
operated as a gratuity of many millions to
the Block bo I dors.

An apology may bo found for Ibe failure
to guard against this rusutt, iu the consid-
eration that tho ciTect of tho original act of
incorporation could not bo certainly fore-
soon at tho tiino of its passage. Tho aot
before mo proposes another gratuity to the
boldftd'Of tho ennio stoolci ond, in many
casos-t^ the eenie men, of at least sbvon
mllliODe more. This donation Gads no apol-
ogy in any uncertainty, as to tho effect of
the' act. On oil bands, it is conceded that
its passBge.wQl iaorcasei at least twenty or
thirty per cent, inofo, tbo market price of
tbo stock, subject to tho payment of tbo an-
nujty of t^o hundred thousand dollars per
year, secured by tho act; thus adding, in a
moment, one fourth to its par valiie. It is
not our own citi7.ens only, who are to re-
ceive tho boilnty of our government. More
than eight milUons of the stock of this bank
is held ^y foreigners. By this act, tho
Aiocricou ropublio prupoaes, Tirtonliy. to
mako them a present of some millions of
dollars. For these gratuities to foreigners,
and to Eome of our own opulenf citizens,
the act eeearea no equivalent whatever. —
They ore tbo certain gains of the present
stockholders undertho operation of this act,
after making full allowanco for tbo payment
of Oio bonus.

Every monopoly, and all cjolusive privi-
lege 8 are granted at the cipenaeof tbepob-
lio, which ought to receive B fair equivalent.
The many milliona which this aot proposea
to bestow on the slockholdors of the exist-
ing bank, must come, directly or iodireolly,
out of tho earnings of the American people.
ItJe dae to theio, therefore, if their gov-
ernment EoU monopolies and exclusive priv-
ilegea, that they s^oald, at least, exact as
much oa they are worth in open market. —
The value of tho monopoly, in thia case,
inav becorrectlyascortaincd. The twenty-
eight ntillions of stock would probably bo
at on advance of fifty per cent., and com-
tnuid in market at leabt forty two millioDS
of dollars, subject to the payment of tbo
present bonus. The prcaont value of tbo
monopoly, tboreforc, is aevcntoon milliona
of dollars, and this the act proposes to eel)
for three millions, payable in fifteen nonuol
ioHtalments, of two handrcd thoueand dol-
lars each.

It is not conceivable how the prosout
etockholdcra can havo ucy claim to the spe-
cial favor of the government. The pres.
cat corporation haa enjoyed Its monopoly
iluritlg tbo period stipulated iu tho original
contract. If we most havo suob a oorpo-
ration, why should not tbo government soil
oat the whole stock, ond thus secure to the
people tho full market value of the privi-
leges granted f Why should not Congress
create and soil twenty-eight millions of
stock, incoiporatlng tho purchasers with all
tho powers and privileges aocurod in this
act, aud putting too premium upon tho sales
into tho treasury.

But this act does not permit competition
in the purchase of this mooopuly. It scorns
to bo predicated upon the errunceuH idea,
that tho present stuckboldcrH bavo a pre-
scriptive right, not only to the favor, but
to the boanty of the government. It ap-
pears that moro than a foartb part of ibo
stock is hold by foreigners, and the residuo
is held by a few hundred of our own fill-
2ens, chiefly cf tho richest class : for their
benefit, does this act eieludo the whole
American ^ople from compotiliun in tho
purobose ol \hia mouopoly, and dispose of
it for many mkllions less than it Is worth.—
This seems Uo less exoaaablo, becanae
some of our citizens, not now stockholders,
petitioned that fae door of competition
might be opened, atd offered to tako a char-
tor qa terms much more favorable to the
government and country.

But this propositiof* although madoby'
men whoso aggregalo Hflnltb is helioved
bo equol to all the privavi stock in the (
isting bank, baa beod sit aside, and the,
bounty of our govomment ti proposed to be.
again beslowoJ on the few who havo been
fortunatii onough to aoouro tb., slook. ond,
at thia moment wield tbo powtr of tho ei-'
iating institution. I cannot p*roeivo tho
juatico or policy of thin course. If our gov-
omment must sell monopolies, it would
BCotn to bo Ila duty to take nolhW leafl
thahthulr full value; and if gcatuitiaSmust
bd tdado oucn in fifteen or twenty yoats, loJ
them not bo bestowed upon the siil'jccVi of

a foreign Eovcrnmeul, nor upon a Je'igoii-
teil anB ftvorcd class of men in our own
country- It is but jnstico and good poliov,
as far as the nature of tho case will admit,
to confine our favors to our own fellow-citi-
zens, and lot eoch, in his turn, onjoy on op-
portunity to profit by our bounty, lu tho
bearings of tho act before me, upon these
points, Ifind ample reasons why it should
not become a law.

It haa been urged, as an argument in fa-
ir of re-chartering the present bank, thnt
^e colling in its loans will prodoce great
ombaarosament and distress. Tho time al-
lowed to close its concerns is ample, and,
if it has been well managed, its pressure
■vitl be light, and heavy only in case its
oianageroeDt has been bad. If, therefore.
It Bball proiluco distress, the fault will bo its
bwn, and it would furnish a reason against

fa power which had been so obvi-
UBcd. But, will there ever be a
time when this reason will be lesa powerful 1
To acknoirledge its force, is to admit that
the bank ou^bt to bo perpetual, and, aa a
Consequence, the present stockholders and
'hose inheriting tbeir rights as successors,
10 established a privileged order, clothed
both with great political power, and onioy-
'~g immense pecuniary advantages from

oir connection with the government.

Tbo modiCcalions of the eiistinc charter,
proposed by thia aot, are not suob, in my
view, aa meio it consislont with the rights
of tho SUtes. or tbo liberties of the pcoplo,

Ehe qnalification of the rl^-ht f ;),■- l -iii;

tivcly of b'ttle value orimportaEiCc- All tho
ibjectionable priuciplees of the existing cor-
loration, and moat of ita odious features,
e retained without alleviation.
Tho fourth section provides "that the
lotes or bills of tho said corporation, al-
hough tho' same be on the faces thereof,
espeetivoty made payable at one plnco on-
y. shall- nevertheless be received by the
aid corporation at the bank or at any of
be offices of discount and deposit thereof,
f tendered in litjuidation or payment of any
lalance or balances, duo to said corporation
c to such otficu of discount and doposit
cm any other iocorporated bank."
This provision secures to tho .State banks
legal privilege in Ibo bank of tbo United
Jtates. which Is withheld from all private
litiE^ns. If n Stato bank in Philadelphia
iwo' the buuli of the United Statea, and
iQve uole.s issued by the St, Louis branch,
t i-an iiay the debt with those notes; hat if
1 mercnant, mechanic, or other private oit-
zen, be in like circumstances, hccanni^t by
aw pay bis dubts with those notes, but must
sell tbcm at a discount, or send them to St.
Louis to bo oasbed. Thia boon conceded
o the Stole banks, though not unjust in it-
:elf, is moat odious ; because it does not
□ea^ure put equal justice to the high and
b-< low, the rich and tbo poor.
To the esteut of its practical effect, it is
bond of union among tho hanking estab-
ishments of the nation, erecting them into
an ioterost separate from that of tbo people,
md its necessary tendency is to unite the
bank of the United States and tbo State

The ninth section of the act recogDi:;cs

iaciples of worse tendency than any pto-

;ion of tho present charier.

It enacts "thot the cashier of the bank
sball annually report to tha Secretary of the
Treorury tho names of all atookholders who
ore not resident citizens of tbo United
States ; and on tho application of the troas-
if any State, shall make out and trans-
mit to aucb treasurer a list of slockholdcra
Iding in, or citizens of suob State, with
amount of stock owned by each." Al-
though this provision, token in connection
With a decision of the Supremo Court, sur-
jendera by its silence, the right of the
^Utea to tax the banking institutions ore-
oted by this corporation, nnderthe name of
ibrancues. throughout tho Union — it is evi-
dently intended to bo construed as a con-
cession of their right to tin that portion of
the stock which may be held by their own
itizeas ami reaidonls. In this light, if tho

Ct becomes a law, it will be understood by
tho States, who will probably proceed to
levy a tax equal to that paid upon tho Htock
of bnnkB incorporated by themselves. In
aoitio Statea that tax is now one per cent,
oitber un the capital or ou the shares, and
that may be assumed as tho amount which
all citizen or resident stockholders would
ba taxed jnder the operation of this act. —
As it is Only tho stuck htltl in the Stales.
and not that cmjiloi/ed nilbintbcm. whioh
lid bo aubject to taxation; and as the
)cs of foreign stockboldors are nut to ho
reported to tbo treasurers of the States, it
is obvious that the stook held by tbem will
be exempt from thia burden. Their annual
profits will, therefore, be one percent, more
than tho citizen stookholdora ; aud as tho
annual dividoods of tho bank may be safely
estimated at seven per cent., the stook will
be worth ten or fifteen per cent, moro to
foreigners than to citizens of the United
"tales. To appreciate tho effects which
bis state of things will produce, wo must
ake a hriof review of the operations and
iresont coodition of the bank of the United

More than half a million of this amount

foreign atookholders. Iu the prinoiple of

drain of their ourroncy. Tho branch bank

Stockholders. Prom all voice in these eleo-
fions, the foreign stockholders are exclndcd

rs, tho ojtent of suflVago in the choice of
irootors ia ourtoilad. Already is almost a
third of the stock in foreign hands, and not

i proddent ond dirciitora would then bo able

great whenever they might choose to exert
it ; bnt if this monopoly were regularly re-
liowed every fifteen or twenty yeare, on
terms proposed by themaelves, they might
seldom in peaco put forth their strength to
iufluonoe oleotions ot control the affairs. of
the nation. But if ony private oitiien or

Id the stock of the bank principally

become involved in a war with Ibatcouutry.
|wbat would bo our condition? Of tho course
which would bo pursued by a bank almost
wholly owned by tho subjocta of a foreign
power, and managed by those whoso inter-
ests, if not affeotioQS, would run in tho
no direction, thoro can bo no doubt. All
operations within would be in aid of the
hostile fleets and armies without. Control-
ling our currency. recciTtng our publio

zens in dependance, it would bo more for-
midable and dangerous than tho naval and
military power of the enemy.

f holo opinion of the court, and tho reason-

herefore a law incorporating it is in no-

lordanoo with that provision of tho Coustl-

The priuoiplo hero affirmed is, that tho

■■igree'of its necessity," involving all the

jiIb of n banking institution, is a question

iioluaivily' fbc legislative consideration.—
A boilk is constitutional,- hut it is the
province of tho Legislature to determine
whether this or that particular power, priv-
flego or exemption, is "necessary and
proper" to establish tbo bank to discbarge
Its duties to tho government ; and, from
their decision, there is no appeal to the
courts of justice, under tbo decision of the
Supremo Court, therefore, it is tbo oxclu-
Sive province of Congress and tbo Presi-
dent.to decide whether the partioulnr fea-
turesof this act are necissari/ aud propir,

•niently and efliciently tho public dotlea
isigned to it as a fiscol agent, and there-
ire constitutional ; ot uniiei-cssari/ and i"i-
'opcT, aad therefore unconstitutional. —
\Vithout commenting on tho general prin-
ciple offirmed by tbo Sopremo Court, let us
■ 10 the details of this aot. In accord-
rjth the rule of legislative action which
they ba^o laid down. It will bo found that
many uf tho powers aud privileges confer-
red on it cannot ho supposed necessary for
(be purpose lor which it is proposed to be
created, and aie not, therefore, means nec-
esaary to attain tbo end in view, and cou-
peqaently not justified by tbo Constitutiou,
' Tho original act of incorporation, section
^1, onaofs "that no other bank shall bo es-
tabbshed, by any future law of tho United
States, during tho contiuuanoc[of tho corpor-
ation hereby created, for which tho faith of

tho Constitution. Yet this act declares that
Congrosa shall no; inoreaao the capital of ex-
isting banks, nor create other banka with
:apilala esceediug, in tho whole, six millions

o sabjecta only does the Constitatioa
recognize in Congress the power lo grant

olaros that " Congross shall havo power to

arts, by securing, for limited times, to au-
thors and inventors, tho exoluaivo right to
their reapeotivo writings and discovcriea,"
Out of this oiprosa delegation of power,
hav.) grown our law of patents and copy-
rights. As tho Constitution oxprosaly del-
egates to Congress tho power to grant ex-
iluaive privileges, in tbcso cases, as the
iheans ot executing the substontivo power,
" lo promote tho progress of science and
, icful arts," it is consistent with tho fair
^ules of construction, to conotodo that such

equivalent to a legislative amendment of the
CoastitBlion, and palpably unconstitutional.
Thia act authorizes nnd encourages trans-
rs of its stock to foreigners, and grants
em an exemption from all Stato ond Nb%
tional taxation. So far from being " necc-
aary and proper" that the Bank should pes
sciis this power, to make it a safe and efficient
agent of tbo Govornmont in itsfiscalopora-

of the States,

The govemtuent of tlie United States has

It is not neeesiari/ to the reoeiving, safe
keeping, Or transmission of the funds of the
government, that tho bank should poasess
thia power, and itis not ^ruj>;r that Congress
should thus enlarge the powers delegated to
thorn in tho Constitution.

The old Bank of the United SUtea pos-
sessed a capital ot only eleven miUions of
dollars, which wna found fully sufGcient to
lable it, with despatch and safety, to per-
rm all tho functions required of it by the
ivemment. The capital of the present
bank is tbirty-fivo milliona of dollara— at
least twenty-four more than esperienoo has
proved to bo necessary to enable a bonk to
perform its publio faootions. Tho publio
dofal which existed during the period of tbo
old bank, and on tho eatabliahment of the
bos bean nearly paid off, and our rove-
vill soon be reduced. This increase of
capital 18, therefore, not for pablie, but for
private purpoaos,

Tbo govornment is tho only "proper"
judge where itsagents should reside and keep
their offices, beoouse it best knows where
their preseooa will be " neiessary." It can-
.t, therefore, bo "neeessary" ot" proper"
authorizo tho Bank to locate branches
liero it pleaaea to perform tho pohlio ser
ce, without consulting the govenmjent»
_jd contrary to its will. The principle laid
down by the Supreme Court, concedeo that
Congress cannot oatablish a bonk for pur-
poses of private apeculatioa and gain, bnt
only as a means of executing tho delegated
powers of the General Government. By
tho same principle, a branch bank cannot
constitutionally Ijb eslablisbud for other than

is neither ncceasary nor proper to transfer
its legialalivo power to such a Bonk, nr'
tbo re fore unoonstitutiouat.

By its fiilouce, couaidered in conneclii
with tho decision of tho ,Siipremo Court
the case of MoCuUocb against tbo State
Maryknd, this aot lakes from tho States tha
powor to tai a portion of Ibo bnuking buai-
ncsa carried ou within their limits, in sub-
Toraion of ono of the atrungest barrlors
^7hiohHecu^ed tbemagainatfederalcnoioach-
menta. Bonking, like farming, moDufaotu-
ring, or any other ocoupntiou or profeMion,
ia a biuinesi, the right to follow whlob, is
not originally deriveofrom the laws. Every
oitiion, and every company of ciliEOns in al'
our Stnloa, possessed the right until thi
State Legislatures deemed it good policy tf
prohibit private banking by law. If tbi
prohibitory State laws wero now repenlod
every citizen would again possess tbe right.
Tho Stato Banks are a qualified restoration
of tho right which has been taken away by
the lawB against banking, guarded by eucli
proviaioDIi and limitations as in tbo opinion,
of tho StAto Legislaturea the public interest
requires. Those corporations, unless thore
bci on oxoinption in their charter, are, like
private banKora and banking compooies,
subject to Slato taxation. The maunor in
whiob theso taxes shall bo laid, lieponda
vrholly on legislative discretion, It may
bo upon the Bauli, upon tbe atock, upon the
profits, or in any other mode which tte soir-
oreign power shall will.

noas or professioQB, It waa aecurad in aa am-
ple n manner as it was before poasesaed. —
All petBons, though United States officers,

which they reside; tho lands of the United
StntoB are liable to Iho usual land tax, except
in the now States from whom agreements
that they will not Us unsold lands, are ex-
acted when they are ndoiitted into the Union;
horses, wagons, and beasts or vebiolcs, toula
or property, belonging to private citizens,
though employed in the fler»ico of tho Uni-
ted States, are subject to State taxation. —
Xfory private business, whether carried on
by an officer of tho general govornment or

cerns or not, oven if it be carrieu on by tho

Nothing comes more fully within it Uian

this whole subject matter it ia just as obso-
lute, unlimited and unoonltoUablo as if the
Constitution had never beou adopted, bo-
«Euts6 iu tho formation of that inslrumeat,
it was reserved without qualtGcation.

The priuoiple is conceded, that the
SttUes cannot rightfully tnx the operations
of tho General Govornment. They cannot
tax tho money of tho government deposited
ia the Stole banks, uor tbo agency of those
Bonks in remitting it; but will any man
maintain that their mere solectioa to per-
form this public service for tbe General Gov-
emment would exempt tbe State banks aui
thoir ordinary business from State taxation 1
Had the United States, instead of eatabliab-
ing a Bank at PhiUdelpbia, employed d
private banker to keep ami tranamit tbeii
funds, would it have deprived Ponnaylvanii
of the right to tax his bank, and bis usual
banking operations? it will not bo pi

United States, and their usual bauking op-
orations, to bo eiemptcd from taxation? It
is not thoir puhhc agency or tho depositos
of the government which tbo States oloim c
right to tax, but their banks and their bank-
ing powers, iuBlituted and oieroiand within
State juris die lion tot their private emolu-
ment— those powers and privileges for which
they pay a bonus, and which tbe Slates tax
in ILeiT own banks. Tbe eiorcise of these

" /iro^io- ■' tliot the substantive nnd most

sentiol powers roserved by the Statoa ahall
be thus attacked and annihilated as a means
of executing the powers detecated to thb
General Government. It may he safely oi
sumed that none of those sages who had on
agency in forming or adopting our Constt
tuljon, ever imagined that nuy portion of
the taxing power of the States, not prskibi-
led to them nor dolocatod to Congress, wak
to bo swept away and annihilated as a moain
of executing certain powers delegated tb
Congress.

If our power ovof moans is so absolutd.
that tbo Supreme Court will not call in ques-
tion the oonstitutionnlit^ of an act of Coij-
gtcBS, the subject of which is " not prohibi-
ted, and ia really oaloulatcd to effect auyJf
tho objects entrusted to the Government, |'
although as in tbo cose before inc, it takes
away powers expresaJy granted to Congress,
and rights scrnpulously reserved to tho
Statea. it becomes us to proceed in our Ic^-
ielatiou with tho utmost caution. Though
iiOtdirectly.uurowD powers and tbe rights of
tbo Stnlea may be indirectly legislate J aw at
in the use of means to oseoute suhstantivp
powers. We nioy not enact tbat Congrer"
sholl not have tho power of osohisive logii

we may pledge tho foitb of the United Slated,
that, as a means of esoontlng othor powers,
it shall not be esoroiaed for twenty years,
or forever. We may not pass an act pro-
hibiting the States to tax the banking buai-
ness carried on within their limits; hut wo
may, as a means of esecuting our powerb
over other objects, place Ihot business in the
hands of our ogcnl«, and then declare it
exempt from Slate taxation in their bands.
Thus may our own powers and the rights
of tho Stales, which wo cannot directly
curtail or invade, bo frittered away and ex
tioguished in tho use of means employed by
us to execute other powers. That a Bank
of tbe United States, competent to all the
duties which may he required by tbe Go'
ernmcnt, might be go organised aa not '
infringe on our own delegated powers, l.
tbe reserved rights of the States. I do not
entertain a doubt. Had tho Executive been
called upon to furnish the project
an institution, tbo duty would have been
cheerfully performed. In tho abai
such a call, it is obviously proper that ho
should confine himself to pointing out those
prominent features in the act presentoi .
which, in his opinion, makes it incompatible

with tbe Constitution and sound policy.
A general discussion will now take place,
eliciting new light, and aeltling important

principles; nnd a now Congress, oleoled in

aud alarm. Iu the pruclioos of the priuoij-

to have been espeoted that tho Bank itsoLfj

It is to bo rcgiotted that the ric
powerful loo often bend iho acta of Gi
ucnt to their selfish purposea. DistincUous
in society will always exist under every just
Govomment. Equality of talents, of od-
ucation, or of wealth, cannot he produced
by human institutions. In tho full oiijoy-
mout of tbe gifts of Heaven, and tho fruits
of superior industry, economy, and virlu'
every mail is equally entitled to protectio
by law. But when tha laws undertake to
add to those natural and just advantages,
artiliclal distinotions, to grant titles, gratui-
ties, and eioluaivc privileges, to moke the
rich richer, and tho potent more powerful,
tho humble memhere of aocioty, tho farmers,
mechanics, and laborera, who bavo neither
ibe time nor the meaua of BcouTiog like fa-
vors to themselves, bavo a right to coinnlalii
of tbe iojuatieo of their Goveroment. TLorp
are no necessary ovila in Government; ltd
evils exist only in its abuses. If it would
confine itself lo equal ptotcetioa, and, as
Heaven dooa its raina, shower its favor^

Mr, Morrill, of Vei-mcut. Mr. Speaker,

is hill is framed simply in accordance

with tbo recommendation of the Secretary

of tho Treasury, to inorouso tbo duties on

sugar half a. cent a,pouud, on tea five cents

a pound, on coffee one cent a pound, aud on

molasses ono cent a gallon. It is supposed

that it will increase the rovonue something

million dollars or a little more

than tbat — between aovon aud eight million

dollars — provided the aamo quantity shall

and iu addition, what may bo got from mo-
laisea. I am so mo iv hat of tho same opin-
ion that I was at the lost soasiou of Con-
gress, that we shall not much iueroaso the
rovonuo by increasing thii duties npon theso
articles, yot I om still convincod that it will
have quite as benefioial nn elFoot if il
duces on cnconomy ond shall diminish* tho
consumption and prevent money from going

need to husband our resources. It is
solutely necosaary. if we would mako this
bill oneotive, that it should bo passed at
once, in order to seoure tbe crop of sugar
which will be very soon coming into the
country, and also tho impactation of teas
which may soon be expected to arrive.
The prices of thcao articloB bavo already
been advanced in anticipation of tho passage
of this act, so that tbo

casary, if ivo wish tho low to go into of

sent Iu the Senate (o-day, that It maybe
aoted on there. I will add that it has re-
ceived the unanimous approval of tbo Com-
mittee on Ways aud Means, and perhaps I
may also say of tho Finauuu Commilloo of
the Senate.

I will say further lo the gontlcmon from
Ohio, [Mr. Vallandigham- J and othera who
may desire diaoussiouupou tbissubjeot, that
it is expected tbat tho Committee of Ways
Meons will bring in n supplemental bill on
tho'aubjeot of tho tariff embracing several
nrtiolos, fMm which it is doomed a further
of tho revenue may he ohlainod,

cussed ?

Mr. Morrill, of Vermont. No, sit.
Mr. McKnight, I ask tho gonlloman to
thdrnw tbo previous 'luestiou for a mo-
Mr. Morrill, of Vermont. I withdraw

Mr. MoKuighl. I approv in tbe main
of the bill reported by the cummittoe, hut
'ro to suggest to the geutlcmnnfrom Ver-
t whether he would not acccmpliah all
ho deairos by making a differcnoo in tho du-
ties upon tho green nnd black teas, leaving,
for instance, the duty on black tea oB it now
stands at fiftoou cents a pound, and putting
the duty on green tea at twenty-five cenl^.
The gentleman may perhaps roioember that
at the special session I culled tbo attention
of the Coromitteo of Ways nnd Means to this
point. I have had convuisatious with por-
>Da experienced iu this business, one ol
'bom has been in office under a formei
Socrofnry of tho Treasury, and seema to ho
poalcd upon the quoalion ; and I think tbat
Ibo high priced green teas ought to pay
higher rate of duty than thu low-priced
blaok teas, wbieb aro generally consumed by
the poorer classes of tbe population. Tho
green teas ore moro generally consumed by
wealthy and are much higher in cost, and
ought to bo taxed moro heavily. I believe
that the revenue aorru' " " "
thereby would be much
under the present bill.

Mr. MorriU. of Vert
heretofore of the same
tlomau from Ponnsylvn
session I yielded my ow

ents of other gontlemou wtio wero, per-
Gapa, moto conversant with tho subject. Iu
relation to this point, I will say to the gentle-
man and to tbe House, that a large abare of
the black teas consumed in the country aro
for more valuable than a great proportion ot
the green teas consumed, and that the shades
of difference between tho blaok teas and the
green run along so gradually that it is al-
most impossible to make a point which shall
be definite, and distinguish between green
and black teas. There would be a constant
dispute in relation to that subject if the mat-
ter was left open. Tbo block teas which
come from Japan arc almost as green as
those wo commonly call green teas- I re-
new tho call for tbe previous question.

Mr. Vallandigham. I ask tho gentleman
to withdraw the demand for tho previous
question for a moment or two.

Mr. Morrill, of Vermont. I will do so ;
but not for general discussion.

Mr. Yallaudigham. No, not for general
discussion. Mr. Speaker, 1 desire to say
that, at the Icist session, I opposed, in com-
with all tho gentlemou upon this side of
tbe House, the tariff and tux bill, and ir
omo brief remarks tbon submitted, I pre-
ioted that tbe reault of iuereasiug tbo da-
lies would be a great and disastrous diminu-
tion of the importations, and by conssquonce
of the revenue from customs.

We bavo before us now tbe annual
of tho Secretary of tho Treasury,
months later, admitting that his eatini
receipts from dntiea on articles imported, oi
to he imported, during Iho current fiacal
year, must already be reduced by $25,000,-
<)00. Such bos been thooffect of tho ■'Mot-
rill tariff" of 161)1, and the aotcf August
inding it. Yet, instead uf pursuing
rso of pobcy which every principle of
pohtical ocouomy demands, and promoting
on inoroaae of tbe revenue by reducing da-
ties and encouraging importations, we arc
about still further lo diminish the revonuei
by increaaing the duty to such on extent as
litlTo while, amount to prohibition.
Why, Bir, in portions of the Northwest il
already requires four bushels of corn to buy

one pound of coffee. Corn '

selling at seven cents a bush(
places has been used as fuel, insteadof wood,
because it is ucw cheaper- Yut genllemei
if tho Eastern States arc continually apply-
ing tho same Sangrodian panacea, holding
fast to the absurd notion that an inorcaso of
duty will always and inevitably bo followed
by a corresponding incrense of revenue.—
They still ioaiat, whenever Iho receipts rue
']w, on adding to tbe tariff of dutiea, with-
ut ri'memhering that tho natural effect of
he increase, even in ordinary timo.s, is to
.imiuisb importations, and Ihat now ospe-
lally, tho loss of the cottouoxport,amount-
ing laat year to $191,000,000, or deducting
the precious motala, lo nearly two thirds of
ir entire oxportalicn, aud tho depressing
iflueuce every way of tho present o. ' '
bavo already cut down tho importatii
nearly one half, aa compared with the last
five or six yeors. In tbo port ol New York
alone, tho falling off amounts to abont
hundred millions of dollars. How, I beg to
know, aro you to have revenue from imports
when nothing is imported? Ei niJ^ih ni-
hUfU.

But not so think tho wise men of the East.
Tho more you letter cominerco the moro
Ihey holievo it will flourish. Tho higher
you mako tho duties the moro will ruvenue
flow into your Treasury. Do gentlemen
forgot that cuatoma duty ia a voluntary tax.
and that beyond a certain point no ono wilt
ta.i himself of bis onn free wilU When
times nroprosporoa.s and money plenty, and
trade and coiumorce brisk, men will buy
muobi though the price ho roiaed. But in
tho times of depression, when wafios are
low, money scarce, and employment diffloolt
lo he had— in just such times, iu short, as
are now upon us — merchants will not import.
booausu consumers will not purohose If the
price be high. Tho true policy, therefore,
clearly is to lower tho impost and encourage
importation, nnd not to add to all tho other
causes which now combine to destroy this
main aourco of revenue, tho killing efieot of
inureasod duties. This is quackery, not
Blatesmonship; and I predict to-day your
high tariffs will not rcaliao for tbo current
year even tbo revised nnd amondod estimate
of tho Secretary ot tbe Treasury.

Now, sir, I submit the queation without
going into tbo argument further, that at the
least this bill should bo postponed until Ibe
entire tariff system can bo digested and ac-
commodated to the changed condition of tbo
country; until it con bo made litarally and
strictly a revenuo tariff — a war tariff, if you
please- Aa it now atonds it is an incongru-

us amalgam of tbreo soparato nets and two
r three different systems of duties— the
d valiyrevi, the speoifio, and a compound of
the two. I think, sir, that tbo bill should
certainly go over for two or throe wooke,
until the whole subject can ho nrmngod,
collated and harmonized. This can bo Oodo
without tbo sUghtost loss to tho rovonuo.
How much, sir, does tho gentleman from
Vermont expect to realixo within tbo aoit
weeks from the possage of this aot?
Will there be any oxtraordiuury importation
of lea from China and Japnii within that
Will there bo nny suob of coffee and
sugar? What ia in tbo wind! As to tho
laticr article of sugar, lot mo say futtlior
tbat the Wcat hns heretofore received its
Bugnra mostly from tho lower States on tho
Mississippi; but nn embargo has been laid
on the trade of that river ever Binco April
or May last. You have shut up. blockaded
tbe Mississippi for ua ; and moro effoctuaUy
too, than any port on Ibe Southern ooast-
Stuoe that time our sugars have been lo-
ceivedfrom Iho East, aud tho price has of
course boon very greatly enhanced. In
addition to thus cutliug us off from our
market, you increased Ibu duly upon sugars
at the Into session ; and now you propose
in hot haste, to raise that duly atill higlier.
place tho article wholly beyond
most of thoso in the West who
are acouatomcd to regard it as n necessary
of lifu ; and I believe, sir, that it is eon-
aumcd perhaps to a larger extent tboro than
in tho States of tbe East.

It seema to mo, Mr. Speaker, (Lat some
other surer and wiser mode ought to bo de-
vised for inoronaing tho waning rovonuea of
the Governmenl. Your expenditures aro
$500,000,000, your income but $50,000,000
—enough lo last just one month. If tho
Constitution did not forbid a toi upon ox-
ports, something might, Iu this way bo add-
ed, bocauBo there has been a very largo in-
crease of oxporlations within tho laat six
mouths. But oven in that case, I have not
tbo slightest doubt you would, upoQ each
recurring pressure raiao tbe dutiea, too, and

ready have your imports by the aamo folly.

But lot it be remembered that this inoraas-
:d oxportafton from tbo West Ihrough the
BOaporls of thoEast arises from tho fact that
tho navigation of tho Mississippi Las been
closed to us, and thus th<4 products which
heretofore we wero ncouBtomed to carry
down that river bavo been forced to find a
market iu foreign couutriea. Cut off as no
from all other means of outlet eieept by
way of tho lakes, aud thus, iu part, through
a foreign country, and with our iiuUoads
loading to Ibo East for tbo most part in the
bands of eastern directors or bond holders,
tariff of freight baa at tho same time
been fully doubled, thus increasing tho bur-

War News or ttic Week.

All eyca and ears have been turned for
tbe last week towards Kentucky. The first
news of the fight at IVtbb's Crai Jioails,
or as some have it " Hill Springs," reached
us more than a week ago, yet, elraoge to
Kiiy, up to this time wo bavo no full uud
Hfttifaotory details of tho battle. Each wri-
ter appears to givo what immediately fell
under hia eye, or what particularly InteTCsta
himself, or friends. While those, whoao
huginosB it is to write and do nothuig tUc,
do not appear to have seen anything tbom-
Hclves, but write at great length of that
nhich they know but little.

W" hrivft. tbcrefore. to aeloot dotncbed
pieces and put them together, so as to gel
uny general idea of tbe wbolo afi'nir.

That ZOLLICOFPEH was killed, and that
tbo Confederate Army was driven buck with
ae.vore loss, if not totally routed, ia a well
established fuot. But Iho particular amount
of lighting, nud the otaoi namber of killed
and wounded uii either side does not
come in that uutbenticated form und mill-
tcry dPtjiil, which most of our peo-
ple would like to sec. The distance is not
great— and so mnny of tho combatants from
amongst U9, either in tbe fight, or known to
bii iu tbo noigbborboocl of il. bavo for dayit
made thn impatience for news oitrome.

Wo bavo selected soch items us give
what is Huppoaed to be reliable accounts,
hoping that more comprebonsive details
nifty hereafter reach us. Tbe 18th Regu-
larn were not in tbo battle.

H is to bo deeply regretted ibat ninu-
IcntbB of tbo letter writers who follow tbo
camps, cauiiot be made acnaiblo that tbey
aro not describing political meetingpt, whore
the greatest nlTcct is deiiirod to he produced
with tbo lon«t regard to facts. Not one
si'ems able to b/ing himself down to stub-
born dotoilw and nnvatnished desorlptioas,
Kucb Bdull d''firo lo know—nnd anxiously
wait lo Irnrii. We can hardly i>oy iitiji. yet

wo are strongly inclined to tbe belief, that
there wo.s more and harder fighting and mer(
killed and wounded on either side, than ho!
yet been told.

The object of Gen, Thomas was evident-
ly to throw a force between Zollicoffer

or CaiTTENDEN'a Camp, und Bowlilig Gi
and thus cut him off- Mistaking our i
bers, they came out of their enlrenohmonls
some ton miles, to give battle und drive
back tbe advancing colunin, and met with
a total defeat, losing pretty much all their
oamp equipogc, boraea, mules, wngona. fca,,
*e.

This nppenrs to be tho way tbo fight wos
broaght on. Wlint effect it will have on
the general movement of Gen. Buell's
Army, If any, we cannot tell, but probably
very little. In fact to look at the aspect of
afiairs at Cairo, and all along tbe line to
where this affair ooourrod. wo cannot nee
any thing tbat indicates a gtneral move-
tnt for some days yet, if for weeks. At
least, not more so tbnn a week ago. uor m
much so as two weoka ago

Tho truth is, tho streams arc all high, the
weather bad — snow and rain — and tho roads
lost impassable, if not <]Uite so. for mov-
ing n largo foroo.

)m nil other points of tho country
is a romarkobio calm just now, unless
:copt aU'uirs about Cumberland, on the

But this la about all we can lea

After flucceeding in getting two pieces of

Col. Green Clay, a volunteer aidu to Gen
Scboepf, and who was himself In the fight
of litst Sunday, arrived in the city last even-
ing as tbe bcnrer of dispatches to Gen. BueU.
He left the battle gronnd Sunday night and
Somerset Monday momlog. His report of
the engagement gives tho following facts :

On Sunday morning about half-potit si;;
o'clock, tbe pickets of the 10th Indiana were
driven in. giving the first Intiroalion of the
enemy's approaoh, and in a very few ino-
men Is afterwards the engagement began by
an attack on the camp of the regimen:.
Tbisfaof, ond tho other that they fought for
a abort timo unaided, acoonntsfortbe heavy
losses ID tho lOtb; but thoy were very soon
reinforced by tbe 9lli Ohio, the 4th Ken-
tucky, tho L!d Minnesota, end Wolford's
covalry. These bore Ihe bruntof tho fight,
and their conduct cave tbe most perfect
satlafuotiou to the Ijeueral commanding. —
When tbo fight began the Pedemis had no
artillery, but shortly afterwards Capt- Kin-
ney's und one other battery company came
up.

Opposed to these were 10,000 infantry,
1,500 cavalry and two batteries of artillery.
In tbo hottent of the fight. Col. McCook of
tbei)tb Ohio, gave orders to his bravo Ger-
man? to fix bayonets and charge. They did
so, with the force of an avalanche, and tbe
result was tbat the enemy's lines wore oom-
plutely broken and his forces thrown into
inextricabio confasion. About (be flome
tim«, i^ltieeffer, accompanied by one of hjs
aids, gollopped up to Col. Fry, of tbo 4th
Kentucky, in mistake, aud ordered him to
quit firiog on hN own men. Col. F. replied
thntho'was not firing on his owd men. On

tillery 'fbey further believed that tho Ohio
regiments atiove named oould not return tt
Somerset, on Saturday evening, in time Ic
come to GenerRl Carter's help early on Sun-
day morning ; for tho roads were almost im-
paesablc, in oonscquonoe of the heavy roic
that bad fallen in the lost two or three days.
Tlieyi therefore, resolved that General Car-
ter and his men should be surpriend by ac
ovemhelmiug force. Aboot 3 o'clock, or
l^uoday moroiug. believing tbe battle woult:
be short, und that they would be vlccoriouE .
but, to their utter nstonjshmani, the brav<
and gallant (jenernl Thomas >vas there, wilt
^ome six te^gimentfl, besides what General
Carter bad under him. They were oaught
in their own trap, and were defeated, as you
have already beard.

Although the 3lit and vI7th Ohio regi-
moats bad not the privilege of octually en-
gueing the enemy, yet by their movemontj,
ijuaer the direction of General Sohoepf.
(who is always watching the movements of
tlie enemy,) the rebels wore badly defeated.
iJonor should at all times bo given to whom
honor is due, kt it be great or small.

In consoqnenco of the severe affiiotion of
Colonel A. B. Walkin, tho 3Ist Ohio regi-
ment was commanded by Lieutenant Colo-
nel Jones, and the 17tb Ohio by Colonel
Coouel, Tho above named regiments have
at all time« ^howu their willingness to en-
cage the euemy, by wading through swol-

T 39. IS6'J.

The Mannor of Prosceoliiig llic
War.

It should not bo forgotten by lho?o who
Lavo the control of tliis war. tbat wo Iioto
a ehoTacUr to sustam as a people, as well
OS a nation to preserve. The presorvniion
of Govornment ivill bo dearly bought, if
wo out-rngc civilizatioR oud briD£r dlsgnico
upon our hitherto fair famo in doing it.

Nothing ioft so grout ti charm over tbe
romembranco of our revolulisnary fathers
as the high-toned element wbicU pervnJed
all their acts, civil and military. Shall we,
Ihowforc, ill Ihia groat alrufglo of ours.
niaintoim thnl higli character and true ele-
ment of our Buocess, then and since, or ore
we to be sacrilired by the acts of msn who
seem to have no higher ideas of war. than
the savages which we drove bofbro us, with
thoir n-eopons of death anJ barbarity, over
warm with the blood of women and chil-
dren; whose steps of savage worfare were
followed by tlicir midnight ruins of burnt
towns and hamlets in nshoe !

The wiokod abolition olomeut, which has
fed this firo of sectionalism with the fual
of thoir own creation, has shown from the
fir=l, that they "ere as Ignorant ns Hotteo-
tots, and as barbarous as the Fojee Island-
ers- They have labored incessantly to
convert this war into one of dossulation
and vongoanco. They appear to have no
higher notions of the arts of war, thon
they have of the true science of peace.
They must bo put aside, driven from (he

position

of dictators or advisers, and c

out of the councils of the brave, the patri-
otic and the just.

We mentioned last weeic thai we would
call attention in this paper to some of the
vile acts of some of these men, whose di
of inhuman turpitude should bo denounced
by every right thinking man. every
who has the least desire to see our cou
once mora restored to its etjuilibrium and its
power. There should he no time lost
making this distinction between those w
would, under prtUncf of patrtotiam bring
upon us utter and irretrievable deatruclion,
and those who are sincere in thoir efforts of
preserving the country, one and indiv'i^a-
ble.

If such conduct, as is exposed in the fol-
lowing articles, is countenanced, encourag-
ed, winked at or approved of, then we are
not only a lost nation, but a lost people
also. Can any ineread these accumulated
details without shnddering, and his hair be-
coming erect on his head, at the contempii
tion of tho tnd — the sure, certain close of
eucb a warfare! Recollect these c
the details of "Secessionists.'' they
testimony of our own men. and the authors
our own witnesses.

Wo know some of them, as murderers and
rioters before the war conimooced. They
are now let loose to prey upon the world,
bridled, unrestricted by the laws of war .
the laws of civilization, or the common
straiuta of ordinary highwaymen. How long
need wo eipeot friends and adtoca,
such men are left loose to bum and slay
those oa oar side, as well us those who
against us. For self protection they will
join the enemy, knowing their coudttioi
be no worse, with a chance, as they hopi
. the bellor.

Why was Gen. Des'veb recently tcmov-
. ed from Kansui I Because knowing them
.aa ho did, like General Hahnev, he would
jiot submit to tho stigma of encouraging
them. There can, as wo conceive, bo no
Plher reason, Thn press every where should
•bllow tn tho lead of tho St. Louis Ii<puhU-
^d denounce, with unsparing hand,
auch barba'^O"" »"*«' ""dor the chorocler of
"savingthe ^''nion-" The reaction of pub-
lic feeling— tho fccoll of humanity— tho
club wo place in the iondi! of enemies, to
use ugainot us— are mCBT*ioas fo reflect
npoo, and disgraceful to thi' lajt degrefr- —
It is abolitionism put in practice— the war-
fare of iufidols in lilack coats and white
nook lies, with Biblos in one band and boivio
knives in the other— with proyer books and
torches— a crusade that would disgrace a
Mahomet in convortiug the world ti> his
special road to the oelestiul regions:
t-cam Ui« £<. I/'UU ItapubUc^iD.

A letter we republish from the Chicago
Tribune, nhows what Jonnison is about in
Wostcru Missouri ; but being from o source
friendly to his command, conceals his worst
enormities. His acts and "polioy," (!) as
it is called, are defended by pretty tcspuot-
oble people. But wo confess wo nro unable
to SCO tho matter from thoir point of view.
If laying waste a nholo country — burning
houses and other buildinga which ace the
only shelter of women and children in mid-
winter, and taking from Ibem the last crumb
which elondd between them and starvatiu
— is reconcilable with any principle or dii
XjM of humanity or civiLiation, wo have
tailored under a lifu-timo error i neither ca
wo comprehend how men, considered clvili
zed and Christain, can defend wholesale
murders, perpetrated in cold blood on coj
tives who have fallen into the hands of
banditti. Such ravages and horrors i
havi> tracked tho march of Jonniaon are pa
allolcd only by the waste and rapine of such
a war as Louis XIV waged against the Ger-
mans of tho Palntinato— a war which histO'
rions have deemed one of the most atrooioni
on record. Neither Europe nor the United 1 1

States has seen many campaigns which com-
naro with tho ravages of Jennison's bands in
Missouri. With such examples to point at,
we may fspecl the judgment of civilized
Europe will arraign the United States for
conducting war barbarously.

In saying this, we donotforget tbat tbero
is a good deal of aecessioniam in Western
Missouri; and that It must be mot. But
why not meet it as it is met in North Mis-
souri, which region of the State is being
Curcod of it without a resort to such bar-
arities? Tho prcperty of rebels whobavo
ded, leaving their mmilies behind, or which
is not for the time being, used lor purposes
of assault or defense against Union troops,
should be left to be dealt with by such nets
of fine, forfeiture or confiscation as Con-
gress will be sure to enact; and ccrtninly
no man should be murdered, as so many
have been, by Jcnuison's command.

It may be pertinent to aak here, if all this
wholesale, Hydor Ali-liko destruction re-
spects Union families and their property ?
Wo doubt it. Wo know it does not. In
fact, tho very letter we publish shows tho
contrary ; for it admits tbat there were ill
tho town of Dayton houses belonging to
Union men. though tho whole town was un-
sparingly burnt to the ground.

Again, it may ho proper to inquire, what
becomes of all tho property plundered or
seized? Who gets it? Is it booty? If
so, one cnn see that the temntation will be
strong to pillage right ond left, without dis-
tinguishing between friend and foe.

We hove said nothing about tho effects of
suoh campaigning as this of Jenuison's. or
those who ere joined in it. We may sup-
pose that some of those who have entollod
themselves under him had a conscience and
human feelings when they entered on the ca-
reer into which they have been hurried. —
But how much, after being habituated to
their present life, they will preserve of any
virtues proper to humane and civilized men,
may bo questioned. That they will be de-
moralized, and many of them be hereafter,
peaceful times, pests in any com-
, . where they harbor, may be well
feared.

In denotineing and reprobating the course
of Jenniijon, to whioh that marauder is com-
pelled, as we believe, partly by a reckless
spirit of plunder and partly by ravenge in-
spired by old Kansas i^uarrels. the very
memoiy of which oucht by this time to be
dead and buried, we are abundantly confirm-
ed by testimony from different parties
whoso statements may be depended on as
those of honest, unprejudiced men. Equal-
ly truthful is, we have no doubt, a letter
which reached us some days since fram
Jackson county, which bears internal signs
of veracity, and which is confirmed by trust-
worthy witnesses who are known to us.
Tho writer of that letter says in a post'
script: I

Jacksos Coi;ntv. Mo., Jan. 1, 181)2. I
I have sent you, Mr. Editor, tho enclosed
article for publication without a responsible
name. My life and mv littlo ptopert^
would not be worth a fartning if any of that
command knew who was the real author. I .
can bring, air, hundreds of vfitnoases to
vouch for the truth of everything I have
written. Yours, Justice. '

This letter is long and rather rambling,
being evidently written by one who does
not nold an expert pen. We have, tbere-
t better to present its con-
tents in our own words, scrupulously ore-
serving all its material facts and statements.
The writer commences by expressing hip
belief that General Holleok cannot be ii^-
formed of what is passing in tho region from
which he writes. Otherwise, ho would take
nmadioto and effective steps to put a stop
t atrooious and inhuman proceedings, which
to driving a whole countir to desperation,
'hich are aiding, rather than suppressing,
Qbellion. and are laying Che seeds of ill-wiU
and hatred, the bitter fruits of which will
ihlc for a long time hereafter. ,

ir charging generally that Jeuuisou,
the Colonel, and Anthony, (he Lieutenant
Colonel, with their command, have ravaged
intry, robbing men of horses, mules,
cattle, aheep, and overykind of farm stock ;
ibhing stores of their goods and houses of
furniture : and killing nuraQroua individuals,
iomeiimes without tho show of a trial, he
ipccifies outrages, which have been commit-
ed in tho first two of Jeonison's raids
through that country.

In Kansas City, the houses of Mesars.
Shannon, Holmes, Adkio^, the Halls and
and Ralphs, were pillaged. lu Westport.
the houses of Messrs. Iteruard and Fogle-
son, were served in tho samo way. In and
near Independence, these bands burned up
and destroyed the entire property of ThosJ
Pritchard. comprising dwelling, mill, barn.'
andatacbsof grain: also, the houses of Mr.
D, J. Porter and the Messrs. Noland. lu
idditiou. they destroyed ton other dwelling-
houses in tbe same locality.

Amoug the murders committed was tbat
of Mr- Joseph Williama. whose only offense
.n attempt lo svnd his mules ucross tho
for safely. Two inoQVnsIve lads, sons
old gentleman named Burgc, were
shot at, and one of them killed and the other
wounded, their only crime being in aiding
ond off a negro woman, who was in dan-
of being seized by Jeunlsou's men, Mr.
Booker, of Westport. was seized in
n house I and, notwithstanding tbe
!o of ou aconizcd wife with her chU-
■ho were pitooualy ontroating that the
life of tho husband and father should bo
spared, murdered him within two hundred
yards of bis own door-sill. After recount-
ing such enormities, it is hardly worth
while to apeak of unmanly ond gross insalts,
abuse and " mistreating " suffered at (he
hands of these brigands by tho daughters of
Col. McCorthy, of Kansas City : or of a
luullitudo of minor villanies and outrages.
Tbe above recited acts occurred during
lauisoa's first raid. Hia command retired
> Leavenworth City. His second raid took
place on the occasion of hia being ordered
by Gen. Hunter from Leavenworth City to
West Point. Balea county.

Instead of marching directly to tho latter
place, he made a detour through Kunsus
City and Indopondonco, This time, his
command seized Mr. S. Storks and two oth-
ers, and put them to death, because they
had been informed that thoir victims bnd
onoo been in Price's army. They aurround-
od tho bouBO of Mr. I^. Moore, in C
ty, and taking therefrom Mr. Hurst, who

s;

without tho pretense of u trial. An attempt
WON made to capture Mr. Wood, of Jackson
county, who was at home, but made his es-
cape in time to tho shelter of n ueighboriug
thicket. They fired at him, severely wound-
ing his little son and a servant. Then, dri-
ving bis wife and children out of doors, they
set fire to his house and burnt it to the

f round. On the march to West Point from
ndopendenoc. they burnt over thirty dwell-
ing bouses, and killed — the proper term is
murdered — ten or a do^en persons.

The writer says that such proeeodings
have driven hundreds into Price's camp, who
would otherwise have been quietly nt nome.-
Ho says that Union men have suffered in
their property, and. allhongb be says that
no doubt tho men killed were sympathizers
with secession, or had been active in tho
cause, they were, nevertheless, nndor the
circumstances, in tho eyes of just men and
a righteous God, as this writer thinks, bru-
tally murdered. In bis own words :

•'.Most of tho men they havcput to death,
no doubt, onco belonged to Price's army,
but had left it for good, for some of them had
their discharges; and there nro hundreds of
others that will have to return to that army
for safety, or seek some other asylum, or
ho bunted down liko wild beasts of tho for-
ests."

Subjoined Is the close of tho writer's com-
munioution :

" God of Infinite mercy ! how long have
we, the people of Jaoksou and Cass coun-
ties, who have bud no connection with this
rebellion, to submit to this reign of terror 1
Why. air, the Jacobins of the French Rev-
olution wore not more blood-thirsty. They
claim to be acting by and under the au"
ty of the United Stales Government
sir, I tell you they ookoowladge nc
human or divine. Everything they have
done and are still doing is in violation of all
law, literally trampling under their feet tho
very letter and spirit of the Constitution,
enforcing laws of tnoir omi and establishing
precedents that ara unparalleled in tho his-
tory of tbe world, and whioh no General,
either in St. Louis or in the army oa the
Potomac, dare do. Sir, luppoalto the coun-
try and tbe Department in St. Louis in be-
half of the loyal peopl,s of tho border coun-
ties, to havo these mon removed. They
ore not serving tbe Government through
motives of patriotism : they are serving
themselves, under pay of our Government,
in order to gratify 0 spirit of revenge against
Missouri for wrongs, wliioh they allege "
committed in Kansas in '5fi. But, sii
we all to be burned out and murdered for
wrongs committed in Kansas Territory by
n few reckless spirits in '56 ? Suoh, I fear,
will be the case unless we receive aid and
that speedily.

"I appeal again to the Department, in
the name of humanity, in the nonfio of every-
thing that is sacred ou earth or in Heaven,
to hove that commandof Jeunisou'a removed
from tho country entirely, so that they may
never enter Missouri again during tho war.
Send them lo the detestable South Carolina,
(the author of all our troobles,) so that
can have a little respite from tbe terror;
a partizan narfaro.

" I hove lived for thirty-five years under
the influence of (I thought) the freest and
best Govcramcnt on earth; I havo loved
her ueit to my Goil ; above all things I
have never doubted her generosity and mer
cy. But. sir, my faith in her begins ti:
wane, when I see my neighbors and friend:
around me murdered, nnd their property
burned by United iStates officers and soldi-
iers. We have had other soldiers in our
midst, from Ohio. Illinois, lotra. and also
Regulars, who have never to my knowledge
done one act that was a dishonor to their
name. But the good Lord deliver us from
the Kansas bauditti, under the command of
JennisoQ. Anthony tc Co.

"Now. sir. 03 to the truth of every state
ment made in this communication, I cnn cal.
my God to witness; He to whom I shall
answer in the latter day ; and furthermore,
I believe there are five hundred men in Jack-

, ends the second act in the drama.
Tho third act is now being played out south
and east of West Point, in the neighbor-
hood of Barnesville."

Wo have reason to kuow that Gov. Gam-
ble is in possession of information giving
details of atrocities committed by llitie

The camp of Col. Jennison's command at

Morristown. Bio., was roused from its daily

qiiietudu of the previous ten days, on TueS'

day night last, the 3lBt of December, by the

arrival obout iO i-. si-, of two Uniou
refugees from tho riolenco of a party of
rebels. They came from the town of Day
ton, a village in the southeaatot Cass coun-
ty, about thirty miles from Camp Johnson.
They reported a force of about ono hundred
and siity pickets, consisting of two com-
.panies, ono known as tho Dayton Guards,
under Capt. Fulkerson. the other under
Capt. Scott, and a small irregular force ua-
der a Capt. Brity. They belonged to the
regiment lately commanded by Col. Hurst,
killed by our scoutsin tho last march through
Jackson county. Capt. Scott lead tho am-
bush at tbe house of Sam Hays, when Capt.
Burohnrd and Lieut. Bostwick, with twenty
five men. fought successfully cue hundred
aud fifty men.

Lieutenant Colonel Anthony being
oomuiand, orifercd immediately forty l.__
cnoh from companies C, E, and H, under
Captains Jenkins, Gregory and Pardee, and
the light 12 pound howitzer attached lo tho
First Cavalry. Colonel Anthony took con
uiand, aud at 12 o'clock at night tho d<
tochmeut movijd. They rode sharply the
balanca of tho night, and reached the vi-
cinity of Dayton by daybreak, having rid-
den over thirty miles from the time of start-

ing.

The town was surrounded, but the bird
had flown. Taking alarm at the escape of
our Union friends, they had vacated their
camp. The town, which consisted of thirty
or forty buildings, which, U7i(/i a/ricercfp-
(I'onj, were all owned by secessionists, was
burned down, by order of Col. Anthony.
Captain Fulkerson was shot in attempting
to escape from his dwelling. The cavalry
moved down to tho timber on the Grand
river, three miles from Dayton, I'
boys came upon the"Eecesh" cat
fled after the first voUy was fired. ' They
wore hotly aud closely pursued, ond over
twenty rebels were killed by our tiring, or
shot in tho pursuit-

The temainder made good their escape,
and when last heard of. from Osceola, mak-
ing tracks for Price's army, at Springfield.
\\ e captured tho tents and oamp equipage
of tho Dayton Guards, and two herds of
horses and mules, siity in ono lot, and eighty
in anothor. No casualty oecurred on our
side, but the klUiug of Gregory's horse,
which iu falling caused him to sprain his
ankle. Moving, then, northward, to tho
weatornpuctof John80ttCounty,they3Dourai"
the timber of Big Creek, a branch of th<
Grand River. Evidences of rebel recruit
ing was found in various bouses, and there
upon tho flames consumed them.

At Rose Hill, S. H. Hoyt was detached
with twenty men of Company H, to visit
what is known as tho Scott settlomeut
The dwellings of Copt. Scott and his broth-
er were visited, and, with a large quantity of
goods, drugs, d:o., found in Ibem,
burned to tho ground. Their stock
also token and confiscated. The detachment
returned to Camp Johnson ou Friday.
Lieut. Hoyt left camp on Saturday, bearing
dispatches to headquarters.

ni«iorienl Parollcla of ihc fhnrl«(»u StU.

IncounectloQ with tbo burning of Charles-
Ion, au (irticle on '■ Fire doomed cities,"
copied into Bidwell's Bcleclic from TIk
Leisure Haut. is just now particularly
timely. It appears that of all cities, ancient
and modern, Moscow has suffered tho most
fearfuUy from fire. In isai it was nearly
consumed, and two thousand persona per-
ished. But this calamity was trifling to the
dismal catastrophe of 1571, wben beleaguer-
ed by the Tartars,

Tboy Grod the suburbs, and a furious
wind carried tbe flames into the heartof tho
city, whioh the iubabitunls could not quit ei-
copt to die by the sword. A Dutch mer-
ohant who was present at tho scene, and
whose account is preserved tu tho Hurleian
MSS,, speaks of iho event as liko n, storm
of fire, owing not only to tbo wind, but to
tho streets being "paved with great fir trees
act close togstbor, oily and resinous," wbilo

tho houses were ef the same material.

Thousands of the country people had taken
refugo in tho city from the public enemy.—
Tho poor creatures ran into the market
place and wore " all roasted there, iu suoh
sort that tho tallest man seemed but n child,
ao much had the firo controcted their limbs
— a thing more hideous aud frightful than
any can imagine," "The persons," ho
adds. " that were burnt in this fire wero
above two hundred thousand."

A Still moro stupendous conltagratiou
was tho burning of Moscow in 1812, owing
to its increased estent. If attended witE
fewer horrors, they wore sutEolently rife for
all who could not fly— tho sick, infirm and
wounded— inevitably perished. Upon tho
approach of the French invaders, and thi*
loss of tbo great battle of Borodino, it was
determined to obaodou tho old capital of
tho Caars ; and on Sunday, September 15tb,
its three hundred thousand inhabitants were
suddenly aroused from a sense of Booaiity
by a peremptory order to quit their houses,
while the Russian army of defence filed
through the midst of them in full retreat
On the morrow the officers of tho govern-
ment and the police withdrew; the prisons
were thrown open ; and none were left bat
the inoapablu and those who remained to
execute tbe secret orders of the authorities.
In tbo evening the enemy entered. Not a
Muscovite was tn be seen. Tho city was
deserted.

Saatoely were the French established in
thoir new quarters when smoke and flomos
were observed issuing from houses closely
shut up in diS'orent districts, By Tuesday
evening tho 17th, tho fires hud assumed a
menacing aspect, distracting by their num-
ber tho efforts made to queuoh them, while
a high wind rapidly connected them with
each other, and wrapped Moscow in a vast
sheot of flame. Midnight was rendered as
ight as day, for Dumas could read the die-
patches fortvarded to bim by the light of
he burning metropolis.

Th'irty thousand houses, seven thousand
>rinoipaI edifices, and fourteen thousand in-
erior structures were reduced to ashes. —
["he private loss is supposed to have os-
cceded thirty millions sterling. "Pabcee
and temples." writes Karamain, Iho Russian
historian, " monuments of art and miracles
of luxury; tho remains of past ages, and
those which had been tbo creation of yes-
terday ; tbe tombs of ancestors und the nur-
sery cradles of tho present generation wero
■ diaoriminately destroyed."

Xkw Yobe— Hns niuny n fearful confla-

ireo days before it could be stoyodi com-
pletely laying wosto the businesavaitof the

bouses and stores with $18,000,000 worth of

history — is tho most celubratod.
It broke out early in the morning of Sun-
day. September '2d, ItitiC close to the pres-

four nights with unabated fury. Every-
thing favored tho progress of the devouring
elements. The dwellings were generally of
wood pitched on the outside; the roofs
were thatched ; tho streets wore narrow ;
the upper stories of the houses projected so
oa nearly to touch oaoh other; tho wood
work was dry and combustibto, owing to tho
boat and draught of the preceding month;
and at the samo lime the wind blew foriaus-

A eorrespondonl of the Cbioago Tribunt.
writing from BeolOD Borrncks. St. Loni«,
gives a very touohiog Btory of n drummer
boy : . ,

A few days before our regiment rooeived
crderBtojoin Geo. Lyon, on hia march to
Wilson's Creek, llio drummer of our corn-
pony was token sick and convoyed to the
liospitol, nnd on the evening preceding the
Jay that no ivero lo march, n negro was nr-
rested within the lines of our camp and
brought before our Captain, who asked him
■'what business ho had within the lines?"
Ha replied. ■'! know n drummer that would
lifee lo enlist in your company, and I have
rome to tall you of it." llo was immedi-
ately requested to inform tho drummer that
J be would enlist for our short term of ser-
vice, ho irould bo alloivod eitra pay, and to
■In this, he must be upou the ground early
in the morning. The negro was then pass-
.id beyond the guard.

On tbo following morning there nppcarcd
before tho Captain's quarters, during the
beating of the reveille, a good looting,
middle nged wcmun, dressed in deep mourn-
ing, lending by tbo baud a sharp, sprightly
looking boy. apparently about twclvo or
thirteen years old. Her story was soon

The first volume of Tjie Crisis la draw-
ing to a close, and I now issue this Pbos-
PBCTOE for the second Volume. The Crisis
Is no longer an osperiment, but a fixed fact.
Wo cBjjuot fully eipress our gratitude
our friends who hove so faithfully stood by
us through the fiery ordeal which
oncouutercd. Hot we are perfectly willing
that timo shall test the correctness of our I
course and the truths we have placed upon

Our purpose has not been to publish in-
discriminately the " nttes " as it came to
hand, nine-tenths of which is either pure
fiction, or eo distorted by the writers for
some ignoble purpose, that it is little betlei
than falsehood ; bat to cull from this mass
of contradictions what comports with tbo
facts, and may be thus relied upon with some
certainty by tho reader. '■ Nor." said one
of the greatest of authors, " will it bo less
my duty faithfully lo record disastsra min-
gled with triumphs, and great notional crimes
and follies far more humilioting than any
By thus manfully battling with
falsehood and error, and carefully selecting
tho impartial truth. The CniSIS will there-
by become a valuable record for future ref-
erence, B? having, at least, some approaches
to the realities of transpiring events, in this
most extraordinary history of our nation
id people.

It 19 our purpose also to continue through
le second volume, as in the first, so clear
political record of the post, bearing upon
the political aspect of the present, as the
nature of our work will justify, and tho
perilous condition of our country demands,
danger does not only cousist o;
those in rebellion against the Governmeni
itself; but wo are, also, continually sur
rounded by the dangerous schemes of tbi
ambitious, the blunders of tho ignorant, and
the iviles of those in our midst who dosii
in Ibe tumult of the contending elements,
sap the very foundation of so much of o
political structure, not environed by the i
belliouB in arms : to strike at the iudepe
dence of tho people, and destroy the last
hope of "the poor in this world's goodi
with the weight of a political dependeni
There is a wide spread effort to erase t
distinctive character of the States, by deny-
ing to them that home State sovereignty,
never yielded to the national orgoniEntion.
It is but u blind, of pretended patriotism,
through which to strike al the people them-
selvea. We shall thereforokeep on a correcl
and direct line, combatting error wherever
found, and while laboring Ui save the nation,
we shall at tho some time labor lo save the
pioplt. that when war's alarms and horrors
are over, wo may beablo to return to the arts
of pence, with our individual rights
with the freedom of conscloDoe, the press,
and voice, still preserved, with which our-
selves and our children may ro-raise the
shattered structure of the present, to n
still greater glory and pre-eminence.

The remalc Frieon at Wiishing-
(oo.

A Qorrcepondont of tbo Philadelpliia
frwt gives a descriplion of u visit to tbe
houEO onJSiituenth street, in WnsbiDctoti,
where renialo spies Qnil rebeli) btivo been
confined. Ho wriles :

WhOQ wo visited thfl calabliahmeiit re-
ferred to, we wore adtnittixJ to tbe parlor of
the house, formarly occupied by Mrs.
Greeobow, fronting on Siitecoth street,
'Poasiog tbrough tbe door on the left, nnd
we stood in the apertracnt nUuded to. There
wcrs others who had stood hero before as —
wo hovo no doubt of that— men nnd women
of intelligence nnd refinement. There was a
bright firo glowing on the hearth, and a leU-
a-Ute was drawn op in front. The two par-
iora were divided by u red gauze, and in the
back room stood a handsome rosewood
piano, with pearl keys, upon which the
prisoner ol' the bouse, Mrs. Grcenhow, and
her friends, bad often performed. The
niiUa of the room were bung with portraita
of friends and others— some on earth and
Bome in heaven — one of them representing
a former daughter of Mrs. Grfennow. Ger-
trude, o girl of seventeen or eighteen sum-
mers, with auburn bair and light blue ey«£,
who died Eome time since.

In tbe picture a smile of beauty plays
around the lips, and the eyes are light with
a atrange fanoy. such as ia ofleu Been in the
eyes of a girl budding into vromEinhood.

On the east wall hangs the picture of
Mrs. Funny Moore, whose husband is now
in our army, while tbe Trails of tho back room
adorned with different pictures of the

nof c

_.'e examining piotur
heard overhead— hardly a
voice of a child, soft and muaicol.

"That is EoB6 Greenhow, tbo daughter
of Mrs. Greenhow, playing with tbe guard,"
b- ays the Lieutenant, who has noticed our
diatraotmenl. " It is a strauge sound here;
yoo don't often hear it, it is geooraily very
quiet." And the handsome faoe of the
Lieutenant id relaxed into a shade of sud-
D«3H. Tbero arc prisoners above thure — no
doubt of that — and may b« the tones of this
young child have dropped like the rains of
Spring upon tbe leaves of the drooping flow-
■are. A moment more and all is quiet, and
.save tbo stepping of tbo guard above, there
is nothing heard

The Siileenth street juil has been au ob-
ject of conatderublo interest for months post,
10 citizens as well ai visitors. Before tbo
windows of the upper stories were " blind-
ed," tbo prisoners often appeared at these
points, uud were viewed by pedestrians on
the other side of the way ; but since the
■' cako affair " of Now Year's Day, the prjs-
ijners have been forbidden to appear at the
windows, and thc'o.tcitcincnt, insti-ad of hav-
ing been iillaye<], bus been atill further in-

Tholirit person incarcerated at the pris-
on waa Mrti. Hose 0. H. Groenhow, tis she
signs hersolf- Sbcivas arrested on the Itib

of August of lust year, and has been confii
in the prison over since. Her husband i
formerly employed in thu Stnio Dejiatlcient
in this city. She i^ a woman of letters,
and 1TU.4 bom lu thu South, although brought
up ill Washington. She is confined

ilies of Waabington, watt also confiood hero
two months.

ilrs. M. A. Ondordonk. who sometimes

re.'euls herself to bo a widow, and Homo-

es a wife, was arrested in Chicago some

nths since, and after being oon6aod here

weeks, was released on parole. Forty

dollars were given her to pay ber Pipen^ca

back to Chicago, but instead of going there

she went to New Yorlt. She wua lost hoard

at St. Louis.

An English lady. Mrs. Elena Lowe, who
IB arrested at Boston, and whose sea was
with her, having come with a commission
the rebel army, has also been confined at
ia institution. Tho son was afterwards
nt to Fort Warren, and she returned to
Kn gland.

ide:i the above there were some eight
persons arrested nt Aleiondris and
city, whose names (ire not remem
bered, onJ who, after being confined at this
— ■-- were shortly afterwards liberated,
\c tho oath of fillegiancc.
Ellio M. Poole, Mas SleTarl, was
. nnd brought to tho prison on tbe
lltb of August, 1861. She came from
Wheeling, where after having been eoofinod
'' [imo time in tho prison there, tbo made
JBcape, by tying tho aheots togelhor
letting herself down from tho prison
Dw. bhe bus been in oommunicatioa
with tbo rebel leaders in Kentucky, advis-
ing them to maho certain changes in their
plan of operations. When nrieated the
secoDd time, within ten miles of tho enemy's
lines in Kentucky, 37,500 of uuoiponded
money, furnished by the rebels, was found
upon her person. She baa been a corroa-

E indent of tho Richmond finjuirtrand the
altimoro Eithange. Miss Pool is yet in
■nfin.'nient in tho sliteenth street jail.
Among tho number yet confined here ij
Mrs. Dusley, formerly u resident of Balti-
more. She was arrested on tho 2.3J of
December. She had just oomo from Rioh-
mond. and had be^n in conversation with
Jeff. Davis, from whom she bod oblained a
oommisaion in (be rebel army for her bvor,
Bronu. She is, as fibe reprosonts her-
', a very •' eiplosive " woman, and it
I from this fact that ber arrest took place
board of the boat, while npproaobiog
Baltimore from Richmond. This woman
IS refused to sleep under a blanket marked
U. S." over since her confinement here.
To-day tho three last named perMns ivill
robably bo sent to the jail on old Capitol

slate his difficulty In defining the exact

duke, "it is neither fiat, nor aquiline, nor

big, nor pointed — at least na far aa I am

*are : all I know abont it is that it is rather

large than a little one, and that it comes

Jwn a trifle too low." Meister says of

Grimm thnt his nose was rather an oversized

with a slight twist in it, but wns never-

S3 moat signally expressive of sagacity

and finesse. "Grimm," said a fomalo ob-

ver, "haa his nose tivi^ted. but always

tho right direction." At nny rate tho

ist was not enough to put bis nose out of

Robert Southey had a sharply defined and
?il-prouonnced outline of beak which be-
speaks firmness, keenness nnd acquisitive
renglh. William Goodwin, tbe author of
oliltcal JtiSlicr, oud of Caleb Wiiliami,
IS. aa Southey wrote to Cottle, "large
ibte oyes and a noie — oh, most abomina-
0 nose! Language is not vituperative
lough to describe tho eEFeot of its down-
ward olongnlion. I never see it without
longing to out it ofiT." Of bis nose Southey

says: " By- tbe by, Dr. told me that

I bad exactly Lavater's nose; to my no
imall satisfaction, for I did not kooiv what
0 make of that proluberanco or promonto-
ry of mino." The nose upon Lis face was
characteristically different from that of
his friend and tuUow-poet, Samuel Taylor
Coleridge. Huzlett's memorahlu portrait of
Samuel Taylor Ooleridgo presents us with
iDtb gross, voluptuous, open, elo-
; a cbiu good humored and round,
bis nose, tho rudder of his face, the
iadei of the will, was a small, feeble, notb-
liko what bo has done." If there was
anything aquiline about Coleridge, it mbs in
his tendency to boav,

'"irdswortb's nose, iigniu, is described
. intimate observer ns "a little arched
and long ;" which by tho way (according to
a natural phrenology, existing centuries age
unlungst some of the lowest of the human
pecies,) has olways been accounted on
unequivocal expression of animal appetites

ly convinced that the leaders of the Repub-

iion'i irfi is grofttly workpd up
:Us ITO mado nbout what has
b^ falsoly caUod " Official Ropotts" of tUo
LegislttUvo PcooecdiogB, as pmctioed by a
combination of iuteresta here for tLe last
few ynars. Tho S'aUman makoa its usual
liypccritical whioiug about uoticing
it isalnaya a great "neooSBity" n
Not a " war Deoeaaity," but a (fo«ar neces-
sity. Of courae it fcola bad, because it
alwoys fools bad whoa a few dollars are tho
objoct. It was ablo (ind eloquent on canal-
ling, until it succeeded iu Belsing upon
y.renUen to Ucinbj nillinns of dollan of
Stalo property and conrortcil it to its own
use for ten i/t an. leaving Iho people of Ohio,
to pay in tho same limo tifiht -Tit((w«i o/
laiu, as a perpetual momorinl of its disin-
to rested labors.

Ordinarily, it would ba supposod. that suob
ftsnocess. through a corrupt LegiBlnturo,
M it had to itork with a year ago, would
havo aatisBed its ambition in such diain-
(orosUd work, without coming to small
C^hs St tho public crib, wboro only a few
Ihousttod dollars wero conoerned. As for
.lursclf. wo ha»o no fearH, and very little
rospect, for that class of people, and wo
did not eipBCttogot their blessings or sup-
port whon wo Btarled out to ejposc such
conduct. Wo much prefer tho opposition
to the Hupport of suoh patriots, though
logion they ba, crawling as thoy ore,
lOund erery LDglilatiTP body in tho coun-
try, seeking aftucsomothing they sUould not
liave. Our country is now in its lostthtoea,
brought to its Bad condition by polilici

who crowd Iho pablic placi-B, until they
darken the sun oi humnn iotollect, like
rharooh's locusts dorkoaed the sun of day.
After what wo saw a year ago, of the
utter Uind, that thcoo " Official Reports,
of the Logielalore, were to the people — ho
carofoUy the Reporters govo them a turn I
suit oertaiu parties and interests, and how
DTOJlly they bid fiom view orerj- fnot, vot#,
or remark, thai happened to oipose, or evei
oppose theso interosls or partisan clans, w(
made op our mind to break up suoh a com-
bination in futuri>, and save the State the
disgrace of such a false system of " Official
lloportiog," and at the saine time save a
fnw thousand dollars to the Tcoasory. This
in the height of our offending, and we have
no disposition to opologizo for it, nor talto
any thing back, but wo oipect to go ahead
and do a good deal more of tho same eort
before ne get through, notwithatandiag the
rage and foaming of the disturbed cliques
whofeeltho power of public opinioH, awaken-
ed to itsprcsDQt activity from the ordeal
through which the country is passing, by
bordona of taiotion, such as never were
preaented before, in tho history of tho world
lo a people calling theouolves froe.

Now, as two questions are involved iu tba
terrible trial, to wit : ono of ability to pay
thoflo burdens at nil; and the Other, If able
through the meal aevero trials of industry
and ecouomy, can wo at tho saoio time
nuun tain our ?[i<r£«i unimpairod? If /i6-
trty OS well oi proptrly is endaugorcd,
wbioh we boliovo it is, then vto have to be
doubly vigilant, and commence without de-
lay the lopping off of every dollar's amount
of eitravoganco and useless eipendl
wherever found in any department of the
Government. Tho peopio
thia W0rk a^home, in thoir townships,
tioa, and ospeeially in thoir Statu
never ceoae agitating the subject until all
is done that can be done. It is a struggle
for liberty aa well as life. It is not a mete
saving of a dollar, but of the incatimahle
ptiHIego of DARING toiay Dial we intend

Never let the insolence of official or their
lungera-on, brow-beat you out of your ef
fort* to save yoursolves, ucr gog your
moutha by falsehood and slang, bacau.'i'' you
dare even l.ilk about the reducUoo of all
asd ei-cry possible governmonlal eiponso,
coDJjisteul with honesty, economy and a true
J«mocralic gotemmenl. Instead of pay-
ing salaries that will justify candidates payj
ing their Uiousandi to corrupt tho elective
fronohiso to secure tho office, and tho pay,
itflep these thousands iu your ovin pockets,
reduce Ibe salaries to plain, honest compo'
titioD, so that (he pooplo will bo able U:
choose thoir sorvonta from tho best men, ic
an old fiuhiooed aensible way, and inatoac

of putting tho country into tho hands of pro-
fosaionnl politicians who reduce the hunting
if office and ploce to .i regular irien'^e of
ibanoes, leaving a stream of disorder, dia-
atisfnction and corruption folloiviug them
ihorovor they tread, other men, of more
practical sense, of a higher [alondard of
political morals will coaio up to take their
places, and the cooutry be greatly tho
gainer. But we are told tho people will not
lustainyou; you will eicite so much hostili-
ty thatyour paper will bo put down. Very
—we will BOO to that. Wo feel no
amishne.ss on that score, as it ia entiro-
ly a matter of our own. We shall, at least,
Iho pleasure' of bringing to public view
) who nre against thcae measurua as
well ns those who are for them. This nill,
least, do somo good.

Wo therefore notify tho Statesman that it
IS got a right big job on hand, when it uc-
dectakos to organ the myriads of e.irrupt
chemes in oiiatenoe, and tbua stand in the
-ny of the lillU as well aa big reforms.

It has mado a very bad beginning, also,
s it attempts to sustain itself and show us
up, by a resort to tho legerdemain of no
wording its whining nrlicle ns to convey two
palpable falsehood i. All who havo read its
articio huvo been led lo two conclusions,
both of which aro destitute of ono particle
; truth. They are,

Isl. BPThat wo wore, tit ono lime paid

It of tho public treasury for publishing

official legislative " reports, and that the

reports wero made at tho Stale oipouse, and

furnished us !

3d. (^ That wo, in 1650, said thi
oial reporting " was no new thing, while in
1B62 no aaid it was a neia thing
Tho jiTSl ia wholly false — a n;
tioo of a sheet prostituted to thu basest
purposes, without honesty enough to glv
courage to show a decent regard for wbf
profeiscs to bo. Wo never published
lino from an "official reporter," of Ohi
legislative proceedings — wo never recoived
a red cent for publishing any such reports.
Wc aboai/s and on erery occasion, paid oui
own reporter-^, and published their reports
for tho benefit of our readers, for the aak
of truth and the honor of tho Democrat!
party. Now let tho Slalesnmn make it
charge number quo good, or atund bclore
the country and ita readers
serve to stand. It would bo well for that
paper to republish from our reports of 1856,
editorial commcnis and all. They
of the paid for, " official " stuff, and would
give a life and rigor lo the .•^■al^i'nan that
would l>o a rich treat to its readers, CiiAS.
FofiTEK, iiii-, was iu our employ (hat win-
ter, and mode some sketches of debates, said
by oil lo be Qosurpassed for their perfection
and the ability displayed, not taken in ste-
nography,

to No. 2. This falsehood
was got up ^to show that wo are the m09t
onsislent man in the world, and with suoh
lice language and distended face as that
ler always puts on when it is about to
petrnto a wholsalo operation. When wo
d, in IS56, that "official reporting" was
: UTifui thing, we alluded to ■' official re-
rtingi" aud among others instanced (he
Waahingtou Globe. We bad uevor seen
heard of, at that day, such "official re-
porting" as has disgraced tho two Colum-
us papers sinco that lime. When Iho
lombera of tho Legislature talked about
official reports " tilling only two, three or
four columns n day, we said, and properly,
said it iu 185fj) (hat the mcmbere did
not know what they were talking about. —
Wo should havo promptly refused, nt any
price, to palm upon our readeia such " offi-
cial reports," had they been prcsonled to us.
In 1862, after seeing what they meant by
■ official reporting," wo did pronounce auch
eportiog i«u3, and of recent origin. To
3hio all ojirial reporting of legislative pro-
jeodiogs ica5 new, as everybody knows, so
no could not havo been inconsistent in any
iiow that could bo taken of it ! Now what
lo you think of (ho Stattsman 1 A paper
(hat has fallen from ita high estate of being
tho " organ " of Domoorots, to tho very low
ostnto of being Iho organ of " Muskrala."
Doea the abovo little history not prove its
status " at the present time ? If [t can-
it afford to hire roportera and publish the
iports without a charge upon tho State

Wo agree with fho Ohio Slate Journal,
that tbcgo reaotutions involve " a subject ol
tbo utmost interest to the welfare, perhaps,
Iho existence, of tho nation." It is possi-
ble, however, flint wo differ with our neigh-
bor of the .tournal as lo the propriety of
adopting these rosclulions, aa necessary
saving Iho nation. If not. we think the
Journal should aid us iu eiposiag them,
and, if possible, defeat them. While wc
approved of the general tone of Gov. Toi>'8
Inaugural, wo of course differed with him
in many of his suggestions, but not all, if
hasty reading wc fully comprebeuded
meaning. Ho said.
— " tbat Preuideut Lioeola seeka, and is deter-

tbo restoratioa of the uevemmeal to ita pow
harmooy .iiid vigor, irrespective of the inlluei
tltis may h^ve upon the domestic institutioD? of
-,ny of the Statei."

As wo understood this declaration, it is ii
the very lace of Truuuull's Bill and thi
resolutions of Mr. MoKitOE. That these
resolutions are lo test the strength of the
emonclpation-ropublicans is very evident,
smoothly and cautiously as they are
drawn by Professor Mokbob, the real de-
sign is as perceptible as though lauguago
bad been used less cautiously. Whether
they aro in part intended lo test Governor
Tob's Republicanism, or not, wo of courso
cannot tell, but if wo read bis Uessago
igbtly, it will involve direct oppoailion toil.
PoSTSOBiPT. — Since tbo above ivaa writ-

al clears away all doubt as to its position
poQ this most important aubjoat of «minci-

far ouo of emancipating four millions of
negroes, and throwing them loose upon the

bor tho right bond of fellowship in his la-

sult pelilioos have been circulating in this

SPEECH OF
HON. Wn. II. WADSTVORTH.

uitlco of till'

10 Uuion—
Mr. WADSWOHTH aaid: I avail my-
self, Mr. ChoinDiin, of thin opporlunily to
give to thp Housp the reasonH mhiob 1 pro-
posed to offer n while ngo for tho vote 1 de-
Hieecl to give upon iho reaoloUon iutroduced
thifl morDing by Uio gentlemoQ from Now
York. [Mr. ConsiNG,] no.l passed a short
Umo Btncc- My collooguca from Kootuoky
voted for that rcaolulioD. nod I wos mysolf
tuuioaa to do fo. J nm etill fatlsGcd that,
upon tlio unkeJ propoaitJou contained in it,
Iho refohtion troly reflects the will of their
loyol oonstituont!!. But I did uot feel ot
liberty, without any explanation, thoogb it
was tho deairo oi my heart, to vole for the
Tcaolnlion. I could not, nlthouch I wn.s
satisfied that it was the duty of the Repre-
aontntivea of tho people at once to procetd
to consider the great (juestion of the ways
and means for cnrryioK on tho wnr— I say
I could not, under ihe circumslancps which
TTOuld surround that vote, gito il ot that
tltao. A resolution, the most important, I
Diideilakc to aay, yet introduoed in this
JJonac, wos'brought in here, aud a Mpeech
itt in torp relation of tho purposes for which
it was introduced, and oa a oommentary
upon its tost, from Iho distinguished gcutle-
inoD fromOluo, [Mr. Bingham,] in deliver-
ed, and then the proviooa question ia sprung
and Hustuined by the majority, and gentle-
men ore asked to vote at onco under that
oommentnry and under thai previous ques-
tion, and without any anawer to tho most
romarkabto tpeoob, considering tho aourco
from which it came, that was ever heard
upon this floor. I am oevor Blartlod when
Iho gontlomao from Illinois, [Mr. Lovejoy,]
who aits voudor, TiBG!i, upon that subject so
near hia heart, to teaob us his conetruction
of tho Constitation, tho will of the Lord,
and tho duty of tho nation in thiB rebellion.
Nor am I Bstonished when tho distinguished
gentlomou from Pennsylvania, [Mr. Ste-
vena,} and who gires mo tho honor of hia
altcnlioB, rises and unfolds his views upon
this (]uoatioD-

Dut 1 was astonished Jn more respeots
than Olio when my neighbor ftooi iho State
of Ohio delivered hia vipwB of tho policy of
(he Government, and laid down the bound-
aries— tho no bonndnrioB, ratlior — of tho
power of Congress to proTido for tho com-
mon dcfcQjo aod the public welfare — asloQ-
tehed in moro than one respect. A gcntle-
mon for whom I hod tho highest esteem,
aud whoso course, as I had observed it here,
gave mo tho impression of a palriotio man
oifd a learned lanyer, rises hero and' tells
thp ttoproeeulatiTca of the people that there
aio no boQudorios to that power, and that
Congress ia omnipotont to provide for the
common defense, and that, under that gen-
eral pbrnsD of the Constitution, all other
limitationii of tho Conslitulion are swept
away as cha&'. and that we may do anything
io tho world not forbidden by "natural
right." Sir, is not the limitation itself ab-
suidl How comes it that natural right
limits any sovereign power! 1 bold that
faatoral right does not limit sovereign pow-
er. It is n, matter addressed merely to tho
diaorolion of the sovereign, but does not
affect the power. The sovereign may do
what ho pleases, unfettered by natural
right, 80 fur an (he qaestion of power is
concerned.

Tho argumentBtioD by which £U startling
a proposition qs that was supported was
equally surprising. It was asserted that
trial by jury, indictment, presentment, all
tho guards thrown around the rights of tho
citizens of (hia country, were swept away,
hecausu alien enemies had no suob rights.
It was argued that tho power to tako life
widioot duo process of law. and without
trial by jury, was implied because we could
tdko lifo by court-martial — bring a man to
tho drum-Lead, condemn him to death, and
eiecuto hio). It was argued th[\.t the power
"to rauki' rules conceruLug captures oo
land and water" impliee tbo power to take
the property of citiiona without making
compensation thcrefoi, and without duo pro-
eess of law. With fervid declamation and
with an otteranco thickened by intense feel-
ing, tho gentleman rushed into these e\-
trcmesi and pointed out what ho would do
under tbeeo supposed powers to my constit-
uents as well as the constituents of other
gentlemen upon this floor. Now, sir. I do
not givo in to any such interpretation of
tho Constitution as that. Not one dollar
will I Toto, not ono mnn ivill' I grant for any
sacti purpose, or to susUlit any such inter-
prtlation. Nay, more, sir, J will gire all
that my people have, their oaltle Oo a ibuu-
sand bills, their slaves, their lauds and ten-
ements, their lives, even to tho Inst one of
thom. to resist any attempt to enforce sucli
a construction of the Constitution as tliat
to tho rain of tho people of this country.

And, sir, I am not ono of Ihoao who pre-
fer flavcry to the integrity aud filnry srn
perpetuity of my country. I jin (< r n- :•■
nown and its iotogtily above ,i.i ,
and to my own poor life, aud '. .

Sympatbiaing oS 1 do oil through mo with
tbisgnat purpose, loving my country not
lesa than any man upon this floor or outside
this Hall, and willing to moke ^ny saoriticp
for it that a frijcmau can bo asked to mako,
I deplore tho ngilatioii of this question, oir
tho attempt to give this war n turn which
must at once culaige tbo propurtions of tho
rebclliuu nnd put an end Io iho possibility
of huccosd in our eflorts to suppress it.

Is it UDcesjary that 1 should attempt t(
ansnVr a conslitutionol argument, sucn ui
that to which I have referred — that Cou-
gfo^a hns poreer fur the cummon defense It

do anything that con be Jone that is not
forbidden l>y natural right? No, sir. I
maintain thikt tho Federal Uuvtrnment ia
not BOTcreign. I deetare that soveteigjity
does not resido in Ihe States, and that them
is no such thing 09 eovoreigaty in this coun-
ttj except the sovereignty of the moss. —
Tho Federal Goveromcot itself ia uot sovo-
reign, but limited in many and important'
parUculars. Tbo Slato Governments aro
not sovereign. The Federal Government
can do nothing that i9 not permitted to it in
(hat inslroment which brought it into being,

d upon the preservation of which its
istenoe depends. Yct'it is argued that all
which IB not forbidden by natural right may
done for tbo common defense. That to
preserve tb" nation wo may break open tho
temple of (lie Constitution, and steal thoni
"the lifo o' the building." Sir, it is n<
oonlrary to natural right to establish a mo:
aroby in this country ; it is not oontiary to
natural right to pass ez pott facto laws ; if
is not contrary to natural right to unite
Church and ^(ato : it is not contrary to nat-
ural right to found orders rf nobility; and
yet can all these monstrous Ibinge be dono tc
provide for the general welfare and the com-
mon defeDse. whether you boso the argument
upon the preamble of the Conslitulion or
upon tbo eighth aoclion of article ono— to
wliicb, I suppose, the gentleman refers—
wbich declares that "the Congress shall
have power lolay and collect taxes, duties,
imposts, and excises, to pay the debts, and
provide fur the common defense and general
■Ifaro of tho United Stales V Can it bo
couteuded fur a moment that such vast and
illiaitahlo powers belong to Congress ! No,
^ir : Congress can provide for the common
defense only iu tho manner that tho Consti-
tution points out. and by tho exercise of tbo
powers granted by that instrument. Cou-
"ress can c^erciBO all those great powers
'hich aro conferred upon it by this Cousti-
Jt ion for tbo common defense; it cannot
csetciso ono solitary power uot granted by
nstrumcnt, or ncoeasarily inferable
from its language. It ovBrthrows our whole
theory of government to say that Congress
can exercise any power not expressly grout-
ed by the Coostilutiou or necessarily implied
from tho language of that instrument; all
other powers are unncceisari/. so determined
by that great work.

Where then do you find in this Constitu-
ID, in tho a.ithority given to suppress re-
dlion or insurrection, any such power us
that claimed by the gentleman from Ohio —
the power to emancipoto slave?, or tbo pow-
er to confiscate property by act of Con-
gress, usurping judicial powers, as taony of
tho hills thai acD Liifoio this House propose
to do 1 Where do these powers exist in the
itutiou 1 They oiist only in (he en-
thused brain^i of honest, I would fain hope,
but dreadfully mir-guided men.

Sir, ] was struck with tho contluual effort
if tbo gentleman from Ohio, in arguing this
question, to give to Congress ip its admitted
authority to suppress insurrection, the pow-
s that might be exercised in accordance
ith the law of nations in a war with an al-
a enemy. Tho power that is claimed by
tbo gentleman from Ohio in an eSortto put
rebellion on the part of our own citi-
was claidied the other day with far
correcloe^s and logical force by the
gentleman from Kansas (Mr. Conway) in a
ith a foreign nation. Tbo gentleman
from Ohio is disposed to treat this as a re-
lellion— to treat it as a war- (if it can be
:alied a war at all) — against iusurgent citi-
:ens whose duties and whoso rights aro
bounded by tbo Constitution, and not as a
against alien enemies, who owe no allo-
giance to tbo Constitution, and can claim
protection fromi[. The gentleman from
Kansas projioscd with far more correctness
treat it as a war against a quasi inde-
pendent nation, to recognize tbo fact that
the revolted Slates were an alien bolligccent
id to treat them as an alien nation
— to subjugate them, aod then do what it
pleased us to do with them aa conquered

Srovinces. Such a position as that can bo
efended. An argument can be made In fa-
of it. A lawyer can stand up and quote
this Constitution and (bo law of nations,
and defend it, ndmitting them to bo aliens,
lawyer can a(aud hero and defend
(be conclusion nt which the gentleman from
Kansas arrived on that occasion, that we
hnvo tbo right to seize the private property
of Don-combntanta nnd con6scate it. The
law of nations expressly forbids it, Private
property upon land is exempt from capture
en in a war with a foreign nation, and if
IU take tho gentleman's jiosition, you are
once bouud by natural right, tbo law of
tions, to respect private property upon

, sir. I did not rise In go into a discus-

if that subject. I rose to enter my
protest on the instant iu an uupreparod and
hurried manner, against the doctrines pro-
olaimed by the didtinguiahedgenileman from
Ohio, and to declare (bat I stand hero op-
posed both to tbo power claimed and tho
policy proposed. It is argued that, because
a court martial can take the lifo of u citizen
of this country without an indictment by a
grand jury, or a trial by a petty jury, Con-
gvi:ii. ia providing for the common defcnsa,

,. L teatricteJ by ony such limitations. —
1 .- ivorth of hia whole argument may bo
.1, by this illustration, made use of by
ih. ,;i-ntloman. There is unotpresa execp-
ti-irj 111 the fifth artiole of tho amendmenta
of Iho ConsIi[o(ion of (bo right to take life
by oourt-mnrtial. It is us follons ;

" No punioa iihnd bo held to answer for a capi-
tal or olhurwiri! iulamaui crime,. uoleu on a |iro-
ivatmcut ur indictment of a grand Jur; , except
ill caiea ariuipR in tbo land or aural forces, e' -

would have heard snoh a(i
argument from ft lawyer of tho emiiicnco'qf
Iho chairman or acting chairman of the Ju-
diciary Committee, but for tho fact that
there was a foregone concluaion in bis mind
wbicli had to be austaiaed by argumenis,
howvvor fallacious. I have eeen moo put to
desperate straits to maintain favorite theo-
ries of their own, nnd tho gentlemiin fmiB

principle, couccdiog tho policy of confix
'uitioti, (which I deny,) than that of Coi
grcf, for the crime of treason or its oo^
nates, cannot conliscatc the property of any
cilif,eii beyond the term of Lis life. There
ia no clruror proposition than that the only
utiaint for treason allowed by tho Consti.
tulion ia a judicial attaint, and that Con-
gress has no power whatever to fix nnd ap-
ply punishment or ascortoin guilt. There-
fore iho fourth section of the confiscation
bill reported by the gentleman (Mr. Bing-
ham] at the extra session Is clearly uncon-
stitutional; and the courts of tho country
will so declare, the moment acoso is broucht
before thom under it. 1( ia o proposal that
Congress shall exercise judicial power
ascor|&inH guilt and deprives of property
without the intervention of a court of jus-
tice. Tbo language of the Constitution is
clear — "Congress shall pass no bill of at-
tainder." That certainly includes all bills
of pains and penalties. " And no attaint of
trcasou shall work corruption of blood, oi
forfeiture, beyond the lifo of the offender."
What attaint? A judicial ottaint. Coo-
gresaoannot attaint at all, andforfciluro foi
treason only follows a judicial attaint, an c
that for life. That clause was put iu the
Constitution in tho light of tho history of
legislative attaints. Wo hud tho large nnd
ample experience of the mother country on
that subject. Tho enlightened men who
framed the Constitution despised that whole
course of judicial murder and judicial rob-
bery. It wiis odious to those good men
who laid tbo foundation of our liberty in tho
Federal Constitution. Our statute law,
passed in parsuoaco of the power conferred
an Congress, re pu din tea forfeiture altoeeth-
i>T. Our calmest and wisest jurists condemn
it, and deploro tho madness which alono iu
limta of excitement miikoa use of it. The
£nglisfa law, at Ihe adoption of our Constl-
limited tho forfeiture for life. Did
0 ancestors intend u more proscrip-
0? In authorising Congress to hi
tbo punishment for treason they hud, as
Judge Stoty tells, n double purpose in vie^v,
one of whiob was "to limit tho forfeiture to
the life of the criminal." Tho whole argu-
ment lies in a nat-ehcU; and it seems to
that even tho least intelligent mind
lid not err in construing this clause of
tho CoQatituiion, if unbiassed by iiaseion or
prejudice. Tho iustroment declares that
ivhilo Congress shall have no power to at-
taint, an attainder fboJl not work corruption
of blood, or forfeilutobeyood thelifeof tho
Can Congress confer a greater
power on (be cOQria than it possesses, or
tbey can exercise ? Perbopa an argument
might be made to show that while this i^ eo,
the State Legislature may hare power, in
~aseaoffelouy or other crimes of a less mag-
itude (ban treason, to confiscato Ihe prop-
erty of an individual, and uot for hia life
only. The Constitution baa limited forfei-
toro in case of the crime of treason only.—
ason iB plain. Treason is a politico)
: and partiea in power, or a tyran-
nous king in times past, bad carried this
thing of forfeiture too far, and made it tbo
vehicle of vengeance against defeated ud-
3. Therefore it was that our ances-
tors have wisely limited forfeiture to the
life of tbo offender.

did not rise to discuss even
that question. I hove arisen to throw out
a few obvious reflections on the policy pro-
posed by tbo gentleman from Obio, and to
' tbo House that if you ore realty anxi-
r the defeat of the rebellion nnd tbo
preservation of fhe Union, tbo worst course
that ynu can pursue, in my humble judg-
;nt. is to attempt to confiscato tho staves
other property of tbo inbabitanls of the
rebel Stoles. I declare that confiscation,
thout eniauoipation, is odious to mo iu all
I furms. To strike down the ownership
of property in eleven States is monstrous :
to prescribe the multitude and millions is
eigantio wickedness without example. I
aoclaro that confiscation, with emancipatioD,
is doubly odious to me, aod never oau be
acoeplahio to my people. They will resist
it by all lawful means, and to the death.

It haa been said that the Slate of Ken-
tucky wants to dictate to tho Gnvernment
of tbo United Slatvs. I hear gentlemen
talk in that way, uud I boo it in the oewepa-
rs. Mr. Chairman, 1 beg to disabuse the
,nds of tho members of any soch idea. —
Kentucky does not want to diolole. Ken-
tucky will be loo happy to follow the consti-
tutiounl lead of (ho gallant sons of the ua-
tion who have arisen for tho defense of tbo
flag of the Union ; and she will follow that
flag through tho red baptism of blood, en
all tho fields whero the Army of the Union
may encounter rebellion. Kontuoky doea
' to dictate. She was the fast to
) Ibis war; for she knew (o what
exceejee civil wars are prone to go. She
it want tbo blood of her countrymen
r garments. Sho struggled {bb lung as
luld struggle for peaco and fraleruily,
lugbt to reconcile differences befuro
tbey should lead to that bloody struggle
where brotberii" blood would run down like

this como quite good to our hoya who had

iro and-a-half hours, when the reoela cooi-

also in two oornfioldn, ono on either side of

Fry, of the Fourth Kentucky Regiment,
aud said . " What arc yon shooting your

Union roan." when 7.olly saw his mistake
and fired, killing Fry's horse undor hiui.
Fry then fired. His ball strack old Zolly
tn the left breast near the nipple, passing
clear through his body. Hia men then tried
to got hia body but missed it, as it was im-
mediately picked np and carried into camp.
After hurras killed tbey began to lag. nnd
finally to ton. and arc slill running!

Old Zully bad not got cold before he was
stripped of oU his clothes whioh were out
up by tho men, each man trying te secure a

two, and some with halfof their heads
torn off. It was truly a horrible sight to
look at. Tbey all lay with their eyes open

I saw the men burying Ihr m ; they dug
holes 11 feet square nnd two feet deep.
They were dumped in like logs, one man be-
■ ig in tho pit fer tho purpose of piling them
I snug. I aiw 23 put in one hole, 31 in an-
other, and 44 in another. Gbns. bayonets,
ittridge-boies. canteens, haveraacks. und
bolts were all over tho ground. One of tho
Minnesota boys found a dead soldier in o
Zolly's camp in a tent, and took $360
gold from him. Every dead body I saw h

I saw two rebels who bad been shot lO tho
forehead just above tho nose, tbo brains ooz-
ing out of tho hole, and one of them lived
3f) hours after, tho other ono waj still alire,
when I left at 9 o'clook. Tuesday morning.
Another roan I euw on the field sitting nii '

yet he talked to us; hot ho died soon after.

Wo will leave Somerset soon, I aupposi
lUt for what point I do not know.

Well, I havo given you a ptttty fair a<
:ount of the battle and about correot.-
)ut losa I forgot to tell you. Wo had
killed in all, ■^, and 101 wounded, and
two missing, all told, Wo bad about 2,000
engaged in the fight, while they had near
10,000. One of Zolly's doct..ii told me
himself, that Zolly- was so sure of whipping
us all out that ho actually bad a wagon
loaded with chickens, geese, and turkies,
and brought along for the purpose of having
a big spteo in Somerset.

The noblo 3olh did not get into the fight,
but it was not their fault. After marching
down to Fishing Creek fivo times and back,
through mud. rain and cold, aud when they
did have a fight, not to let ua have a band

If this is atill a democracy in (he eeuso in

t i^ true that democracy, pure and un-
ihackled, is to sutvivo tho ordeal to which
the present crisis is subjecting it, in this
then, indeed, shall wo begin to
breathe more freely in the face of tho many
dangers whioh threaten us. Then wo ehould
still possess all the necesinry clemenla lo
constitute a groat and happy people. But
I apprehend that the above declaration of
the Journal is not. in Us complete eenae,
supported by facts ; and the apparent in-
fracti<ju of this principle, which anems to
have given the Journal cause fot critioiam.
is of very insignificant importance, when
compared with many others ivhich wo aie
compelled to witness, and for tho correction
of which thorn appears to be no timoly rem-
edy. "The privileged class." which was
allowed to go into the enclosure, while oth-
s were prohibited, woa not detailed iuauch
det by any law of the land, but through
breach of good manners, on tho port of
rtain offioiils ; which was only on evi-
dence of their wcakijess, and not a legiti-
jmate act of the governmont. So long as
ial condition of society ia left on-
trammeled by legislation — in other words,
long as legislation is directed to cuntrib-
1 to tho well being of tho greatest possi-
< number, and not to tho advantage of a
favored few. there is but little to fear from
this class of self-conslituted "nabobs." —
But have we no cause of apprehension that
the tendency of legislation, both in our State
id National Govemmeal. is tu build upon
aristocracy in this country, by promoting
the intotesta of a favored few. while the
rights of the many are spumed T Uavo we
not seen, quite recently, tho Leglslatuto of
Ohio, overstepping all barriera, moral and
political, and, in defiance of the Coastilu-
tion of tho State, enaotiug a law whioh is
calculated to swindle one class out of mill-
if dollars, and to confer on another ad-
ditional privileges, wealth and power?

Where was tbe Journal man, viho is to
sonsitivo on the question of uooiul equality,
hen this gigantic act of diatinctiaa was
perpetrated by those claiming to be tbo tep-
resentativos of tho people ? Porhana us
powers of perception had been so enlarged
that he was enabled to see that war d/ja
create, in this locality, a saperior and tit-
feriot class," A Democracy, according t<>
umble view, is tho tranquil rule of the
majority, which, oflor having given ondoubt-
ed proof of its existence, tor or against a
certain measure, is the common aootce of
all powers of the State. And yet, we chiim.
and reasonably, too, we think, that tho poiv-
er of tho majority is not, of itself, unWi'
ted. There are certain barriers which the
majority ia bound to recognize ; and whioh
should always enjoy an undisputed suprem-
acy, Tbeso are reason, justice and vested
rights. Hence, so longas n govommontis
truly democratic, the rights of minorities
are as well secured ns those of the majori-
ty. It is not always feasible in such a gov-
ernment as ours, lo consult tho whole peo-
ple in the formation of every law ; bat it
cannot bo denied that whoa such a measure
ia possible; and. moreover, when it ia oi-
pressly enjoined by the Conatitution, tho
authority of tho law is very much augment-
ed by doing so. Now, aa we understand it,
the right to extend banking privilegea to in-
dividnals or companies, in this State, is
vested, by tho Constitution, in tho people.
Is our legislation, then, conducted upon the
principles of democracy, and inuccordanco
with our domooratic Constitution? "This
Democracy," then, is not tho rule of the
majority, aa we have alwaya hitherto eup-
posed, but tho rule of those who arc alroau-
ous partisans of the majority. It ia not tho
people who iiroponderato in this democracy,
but those who best know what is for tho
good of the people. A happy diatiootJon,
txuly. which aUowB men to act in the name
of the people without consulting them, and
to claim theit gtatiludo while their rights
are spumed. " Thii is still a Democracy."

Sin — I bnvo tho honor reapootfnlly to anb-
mit Iho following report of the part which
my brigade look in the battle of the Cum-
berland, on the ]9th iust. :
■ Shortly beforo 7 A, M., Col. Mnnson in-
formed mo that the enemy had driven in his
pickets nnd wore npproacbinff in force. —
That portion of my brigade with me, tho 9lh
Ohio and the 2d Minnesota RegimentH. were
formed and marched lo a point near thfi
junction of the Mill Spring nnd Coloinbin
Jtoads, And immediately in rear of Wbet'
moro's Bnttery—thfl 9th Ohio on tho right,
and 2d Minnesota on tho left of tho Mill
'Spring lload.

From this point I ordered a company oi
the 9lh also to skirmish the woods on the
fright to prci/ent any tlank movement of the
'onl^my,

I Shortly after this. Col. Manson, command-
ing the 2d Brigade, in person, informed mi.'
that the enemy were iu force and in posi-
tion on the top of the next hill beyond the
woods, and that they forced bim to retire.

1 ordered my brigade forward through the
woods iu line of battle, shirting the ilill
■Spring road. Tbo march of the 2tl Minnf'
sota was soon obstructed by tho lOth Indi-
■ana, wbrob was scattered through the woods
waitbg for ammunition. In iront of them
1 saw tho Jih Kentucky engaging the eu^-
my, but ovidentty ralLriiig. At this, mo-
ment, thil onomy, with ahoute, advanced on
them about ono hundred yards, and took po-
sition within the field on the hill top, nca;
the second fence from the woods. At thh
timo I received yonr order to advance u^
rapidly as possible to tbe hill top. I order-
ed the Set Minnesota regiment to move br
tho flank until ithad passed tho lOth ladia

tary ho°nrdere4 h-m to write to Major Bockwitb nnd 4tb Kentiieky, and then deploy to thi
and order him to rtpott forthwith in wntiog| left of the rond.

ROLLA, Fob. 3.— Reliable information
from Lebanon says that Gen. Curtis is now

in quick step through the woods lo the plnce

._■ honor herewith to sub-
mit my report of the part taken by the 2ad
MionesolB regiment in Iha notion of the
Cumberland, on tho ]9tb instant.

About 7 o'clock ou tho morning of that
day. and before breakfast, 1 was informed
by Col. Matisoa, of Ibo lOlb Indiana, com-
manding the second brigade of this divis-
ion, that tho enemy were udvnnoinff in force,
and that be was holding tbem in check, nud
that it was the order of Gen. Thomas that
I should form my regiment ikod march itu-
mediatitly lo the scene of action.

Within ten minutes wo bad left our ounip
and irero marching towards tbo i.'aeiny.
Arriving at Logon's field by your order, we,
halted in lino of battle, supporting Standarl's
battery, whieh was returning tho fire of the
enemy's guns, wbu»c balls and shells were
falling near us.

As soon as the l>th Ohio came up nnd had
tdken its position on our right, we continued,
the march, and after proceeding about half
n mile camo upon the enemy, who were
posted behind n fence along a road, beyond
which was an open field broken by ravines.
Tbo enemy opening upon us a galling fire.
fought desperately, and a hood to bond figbt
ensued which lasted about thirty minutes.

Tbo enemy met with so warm n reception
in front, and afterward being flanked on
their left by the 9lh Ohio, nnd on their right
by a norlion of our left, who had by tboir
well-dlrcoted fire driven tbem from bohiud
their hiding places — gnvo way, leaving a
largo number of their dead and wounded on
tho field. Wo joined in tho pursuit, which
continued till near sunsel. when no nrrived
within a mile of their inlreuchments, where
"0 rested upon our arms during the night.
Ibe next morning wo marohcll into their
works, which we found desert-d,

Sit hundred of my regiment was in ibo

der No. 12, Department of Kansos, probib,

' ars. All armed parlies, whether boloog-

,, to tho service of the Government or not,
who shall hereafter cross the Kansas border

All armed hands of men in the Slate of

Slates now, or acting under special authori-
ty obtained from tho Governor of tho State

of the General Commaudipg, ara horoby

mod to disband and return to their

ilitory coiuiuiesion for tfifi trial of all
such prisoners, and all trho are now dotain-
a on charges of armed depredations or

ayhawkiog, will be Cdtablisbcd.

WAaiiLSOTON, Feb. 1. — The .Secretary of
Var directs that officers and soldier.s who
re or who may bo token prisoners, shall,
during imprisonment, be entitled to same

ly ns if in aotivo sorvicc.

Notwithstanding tho tone of some foreign
journals on the stone blockade, kc. des
patolioa received at tho State Doparlmeat
arc regarded as conclusive of n complete
restoration of good feeling with tho govern-
ments of England nod Franco and other
continental States.

Tho Sooretnry of State on Friday direct-
ed tho re leas 0 of all prisoners taken from
aboard insurgent armed vessels. 'Tis true

' " outhorities refused Iha exchange of
Smith for Col. C'orcoi
of difi'eronoo in rank.

It is reported that tho Gi
determined to place the rebel prisoners now
in New York and Philadelphia on the foot-
ing of prisoners of war. AJa order has been
issued for removing them to military prisons
with a view to exchange for citizens of tho
United States imprisoned in the South.
This will probably result in tho roloaso of
Colonels Corcoran, Coggswell, Lee, Wood-
ruff, Wilcox, Vodges, and other officers now
hold as bostngoa. It is generally belioved
that an exchango of oil prisoners will speed-
ily follow.

It is understood that tbe tux hill is being
perfected iu its details by the Committee of
Ways nnd Means. It proposes a modorato
rate of taxation on most articles of neces-
sary consumption, with higher rates on dis-
tilled liquors nnd artioles of luxury ; also

I legacies and brqucsts ; on paseeugcrB by

lilroadaud conveyances; ou newspapers

id lelegraphia messages. This hill will
give to U. S- funds a euro specie paying
security.

Tbe commiltco is also considering the
subject of a national hanking law, roqoir-
iog tho deposit of U. S- stooka as security
for bank notes circalatcd as currency.

Tho President slated in conversation with
Conway of Kansas, that he appointed Lano
n Brigadier General with tho express undor-
Htanding that he should sorvo under Huntor,
and Lano expressed his willingness to do so.
It was never cootemplalcd that his expedi-
tion should be Independent of or oflensivo
lo Ilantur. Lauo must receive bis orders
from Hunter. Tho President will bo glad
if Hunu-r, acting within orders and wtlli a
Kcnsci of duly, can give such orders as will
l)0*uIr*fQclory lo Lane.

Aati-Baok Legist nUon.

The people of IlliuoU have suffered st
verely in consequence of their wretched pt
per money. The Committco on Banks i
the Constitutional Convention, now in ses-
sion at Springfield, have reported ti provis-
ion, for tbo now fondamentol bw, It is that
no bankseball be charted in the Stale; that
no eiisting oliarters shall bo revived, and
that no foreign bills of le^s than $10 shall
ciroulato in the State. It is altogether pro-
bable that this or something npproiimating
to it will bo adopted- Such a law would
have delighted Andrew Jackaon.

The Illinois Sinie Consttmtlonal
Conv«nlian--Hlghly Iraponoiit
Doctrines Assnnied.

Our readers are already apprised of the
fact that a Convention ia in session at
Springfield, Illinois, framing a new t^onsti-
i for that State. They are also in-
■d that its members arc, two to one,
Demoorats. Under whotover ciroumstou-
ces Ihey may have been elected, they op-
e a full appreciation of the re-
1 which devolve upon ihem.
They are bringing Governor Yates and his
accounts to a oloae sifting, and the
'rnor shows as sad an adminiatratiou of
bis money accounts as Governor Dessi-
HON- Tbo Convention ossumes very high
grounds, and bos tho action of Western
Virginia, and the recent Missouri Statu Con-
ition as precedents. These, certainly
should stop tho clamor of Abolitionists, or
Bepublicons, includmg Governor Yates,
Dennison and, we believe, all tho other
sslorn Govemore, nho did nil thay could
precipitate tho present state of things
Western Vii^inio and Missouri. The
103 of Western Virginia and Missouri are
not, however, parollel cases. That of West-
Virgiuia was a se^lion of a State, act-
in its own rosponalbility, and was alto-
gether a highly revolutionary not, and bus
precedent in our State or national or-
ganizations, nud is wholly above constitu-
tional authority.

surprised to see the National
Guvemoient in any way rccogniee it as a
:i(atc, knowing as we did, that it would in-
■oubles nnd complicate any set-
tlement of our difficulties. This wos done
hostility to tho people of Weatom
Virginia who desired to remain iu the Union,
id whose political sentiments appear to bo
sound on the great issiies of the country, as
developed on the fioor of Congress. But
desiring as we did a full rosloralion of the
I. and tbc States in that Union, with
territorial limit.-i unabangcd, unless
dona in the only mode knoivn to uur sys-
tem, itc had to overlook any peculiar politi-
cal ideas for the timo being, among Union
to adjust matters that in tbe end
tho least 'possible difficulties could arise in
bringing the wholo people and tbe States in
under our Constitution as tbey were
before the great secession movement com-
lonoed. Behoving that a very largo por-
on of tbo Southern people would bo wil-
liiig in a short time to come voluntarily
back into tho Union, whensatiafied that tho
object of tho North was not to atoal or des
troy their property of any kind, but simply
restore the Government ; we Lave labor-
in season, and a.>> some would Lavo it, out
season, to direct the public mind to that
d, and in every case opposed eucb ineu-
res as we believed tended to niden the
broach, by making this war one of disorder
id destruction and finally precipitate it in-
oue of permanent mililnry Bubjugation,
this would be as ruinous to us as to
tho South, and all would go down in one
idless wreck together.
The case of Missouri, Iherelor,.-, differs
some respect from that of Western Vir
nia, but yet it is onu of oitremo cceort,
and of doubtful propriety as a conatitutiooal
, yet as tbe State U kept in tact,
rofroincd from pasting any opinion
upon the real ildlui of tbe present State
Government. It is this : tho Legislature of
elected in the fall of 1860, met ot
Jefferson City, tho Capitol, on the first
Monda}' of January, 18C1. During tlteir
session they passed a law calling a State
ention, in anticipation of tho nationu]
troubles then, in fact, upon the counlrj-,
which Convention was eleoted, and met in
St. Louis, before tbe Legislature adjourned.
There appeared to be a wide difibronce as
to the proper measure to be pursued, be-
tween tho Legislature and the Convention,
and both bodies ndjouiued without coming
to any terms of notion for the Stutc

Soon after the ai^ourument of thcfo two
bodies, thoinilitnry, undertho ofllcereof the
United States, took possession of tho State
Government at Jefi'oreou City, and drove
Jackson, aud those who remained at-
tached to his Government, from thoCnpital,
id hold it.

Tbe ConvenUon was then called togothi
[uin by themselves, and assumed full Stato
and Legislative powers, passed la^
dinaiices making Mr. Gauiile G

curroundiug him with all tbe necessary
iiphernaliu of a Stato Government.—
These acts were never submitted to tho peo-
ple for a vole — the Convention assuming ab'
solute and original authority, as the act of
the people tliemselvcs.

This, brielly, is the present Statu gov-
ornmunt, defdclo. in Missouri; undas such,
is recognized by our governniont at Wa.sh-
ington, and is ropreaentod in both Houaoi
uf Congress; the Senators holding iheii
appointmonlB from Gov. GMtPLH. Froo:
stand-point, we may run our minda in-
to tbe future, as both tho Western Virginia
government and tbatof Misaonri, aro in fall
recognition by our National authorities.

These are preoedenLifor the action of tho
Illinois Convention most nssurodiy, which
has parsed a resolution to dislriot that Stale
for uicmbera of Congress, ond ha:> bifore it
a resolution to oluct a United States Sena-

tor, in tho place of Mr. Browning.
holds his seat by appointment of Gi

PKS, to Gil the vacancy occasioned by
death of Judge DoniiLAS.
lew, wo apprehend tbo only difficulty iu
the wayofthoIIUnoiaConventioa will be that,
their Constitution must be Hubmilted to the
people, and uuUl then none of their acts will
he completed, as each act will be a part of
thewhole. If thopeopie rojectthoir work it
all falls to tbe ground. To this they should
look, and see that no part of their work de-
feats the whole, or else submit different pro-
aioas to separate votes.
That the Illinois Convention, like that of
isaouri, might overturn tho whole Repub-
lican or Abolition State Government, with
the precedents quoted, before them, is prob-
ably true, hut this wo do perceive they de-
think of doing, sad wo surely ahould
t. We think tho evil of
of tho times, grows out of nsaumptiona in-
stigated by political partiziinsbip. The
true party lo admioiilcr tho Govcmuient,
that neither euoroacbos upon well
defined oonslitntloaal principles, nor per-
e nc roach me nts from any quarter,
the rights, liberties, or property of
tbo people.

le will deny tbo right of tho Cen-
to do auy act within the range of
tho Constitution of tho United States.
That is clear. The " tight to alter, amend
bolish," aform of Government, is a very
radical, original and sovereign right, which
the people retained iu all their State Con-
tutions, and the only restriction placed
er them, aud to which tbey all occeded to
becoming a part of tho American Union,
that the form of government shall be
rf;iuft?[ can— that being necessary ti tbe
consistent working of the machinery, nnd
principle upon which our wholo fabric
based, and made h part of the objects
and purposes of the Revolution, to wit.

ibc LcRtslntiirc.

Propositions ore now before tbo Lpgisla

1st. To abolish tho office of Comptroller
of the Treasury.

2d. To abolish tho office ol State Super-
ntendent of Cotnmon Schools.

3d. To abolish the office of Commissionei
of Statistics.

4th. To reduce tbo pay of County officers.
5th. To reduce the salaries of Judges of
the SriproDia Court-
As to tho propriety of tbe first proposi
tiou, I have thi.'j to say: that tho office of
iplroller was created by the authors of
tho Independent Treasury system, for the
purpose of preventing the payment of ille-
gal or improper drafts upon tlio Treosury,
and for tho farther purpose of guarding
gainst any disboiiesc complicity bet)
the Auditor and tho Treasurer. "It
thought that tbo past history of financial
iperations in the Treasury Department
ly justified thucieaUon of thisoffice, to
etule as a check upon the Treasury and
the other Departments. What ond is to
gained by tbo abolition of the Comptrolli
office I do not comprehend, unless it bo to
ion the Treasury again to Ibioves,
II. Tho venial work of destroying thi
Common School eyatum of the State, was
commenced by tho last Legislature. Some
member of the present Assembly, whose
brain ia luminous with " powt^?r-8hop no-
' has introduced a bill to abolish the
of Superintendent. I would advif
the anthor of that bill to omigrale to Ai

1 where he will find more enngenial

ons. Tbo friends of the Common
School system should, however, be oa their
guard ; for its enemies ore the usurers. Shy-
locks, and mouey-obangers, whoso ir^/lurnct
legislation is not lo be liapiicd. Theit
dicy is to destroy the system by degrees,
r tbey dare not attack tbo whole ut once.
By deranging Ihu necessary machinery of
the system, they hope to bring it into dia-
credii, and finally overthrow that grand
plan of popular education which is the only
cure basis of free govornoient!
IU. Tbonoxlgreatmeasuroof "retrench-

tion on those subjects- For they are among
tho principal causes of destitution, idiocy

d orimo, which are rapidly increoaiug the

mber of the_^iiuft!'ig clastts.

IV. I'beaa "reformers" propose to ro-
duoo the fees of certain county officers.
Clerks, Sheriffs, Auditors, and Treasurers.
It is likely that in a few of the wealthiesi
itiea, such as Hamilton, FtHuklin, Blont-
ery and Cuyahoga, the fees of those of-
ficers will bear some reduction, and some
money thereby be saved to litigants and tax-
payers. It is not so, however, with a ma
jority of tho counties in the Stat«- In at
least fifty counties tho pay of those offices
is scarcely sufficient to eecuro competent
officers. Sheriffs, Clerks and Auditors rare-
iko anything more than a livelihood in
offices. I here suggest (o those mom-
hers of tho Legislature, at present engaged
'■ this branch of " rotronohment," that do-

o they proceed any further in this great
.. jrkof "reform!" they carefully oiamino
the statutory fees allowed to those several
~ s. But if nn evamiiintion of theatat-
not satisfactory, then, that they call
tho Clerk of the Cuuit of Franklin
county, nnd eauh request tho privilege of
taking the papers end making the complete
record in any given ease, and from that sat-
isfy themselves how much less than tho pre.
aeut foes will pay for the labor.

Sheriffs furnish their own horses, pay all

:pense.i, and receive live cents a mlli
travel fees, tbetc other fees are in about thi
same proportion. But these two offices do
not effect tho tax duplicate, their eipt
being paid by the parties to action

County Auditors, Clerks of tbe Courts and
_ isticcsnf tho Peace, are paid just acoord-
ing to tho quantity of labor they perform —
80 much money for so uiuoh 'worlc. The
great bulk of toeir pay or fees, arisei< from
record work, for which they are paid
cents n hundred words. This is merely
compensatory for clerical labor. In the
smaU counties tbo treosurursarQmoiein the
habit of coming out of their offices in debt,
than of saving anything by thL-it fees. —
SuiLi against county treasurers and theit
tlioa in tho email counties were of very
.on occurrence, beforo the establisb-
of tho independent treasury system:
man who is not a meru demagogue
who has any acquainlnoco with tho dut es of
tho county officers, and their actual oom-
pensation, can honestly favor any reduction
of tho present low rates of foes. While it is
true that in a few counties only tbo pay will
bear reduction, in a majority of the couu<
tics any farther reduction of feoa, would fill
the most responsible offices with Incompc.
tent officers.

As to tho Hill now pending for n rcduc-
tlon of the salary of Iho Judges oflhe Su-

premo CoutU it ia to bo hoped that the Lec-
i^lnturo wiU not forget, that ono of tb-
great ends of society is a. juat and enlight-
ched,admlniatrotion of justioo among men.
Upon it depends the aoourily of liberty and
property. It requires tho patient labor ol
haltnlifo time to quolify a man for the re-
aponsibloduliesof a Judge of tho Supreme
Conrt, whilo his deoisions bocomo rules of
Inn, gOTOrnine all other courts in the Stato.
In bis hands is niaoed tho life, tho liberty,
tlio property and tho honor of every oitUson
and inhftbitautof tho Stale. Tho powers of
the judicial office ate tremendous, they
spring from the very nature of free insti-
tutions.

I A great judge must understand tho na-
ture and even the technicalities uf every
trade, art. occupation and profession, whiio
his office rci)uires that he should be oou-
nected with none— justice and equality an-
his only trade. His time, hLi Ulents and

$3,500 a year, anu the associate Justices

jilaced upon her Bench enlightened jurists,
jwhoso deoiaions are sought aftt^r aa aulhor-
ily in every Stale. Louisiana pays hor
judges S5.000 a year. None question tho
necessity of nn enlightened, pure and etablo
administration of justice. To secure this
the Stato must bo enabled to conimaud tho
highest qualities, and best tolenb at tho
bar. Tho evident nnd only rule by which
she can do this is to give tho measure of re-
ward which men fitted forjudges can coni-
mandfrom sooioty. Can we hope to soouro
theaervioeaof auch, with low, niggardly sal-
aries, which degrade the judicial office, bo-
low other liberal pursuits- Do oar Icgia-
laluro deem it wise to put Iho pay of the
Judges of tbe Court of lost resort, on a
footing with tho pay of Captains and Quar-
ter masters in tho Army, and below Iho
pay of Kail Road Prosidents and Superin-
tendanla ?

Tho meltiug away of political parties aud
strife, by Ihe more fervid element of war,
gave promise of straightforward business
legislation. It waa hoped that tho crisis
had called into tbe Legislature real states-
manship and patriotism. That there are
some men in the Logislaturo possessing
these rare abilities is true, but whether thoy
will be ablo t-) control its action grows
doubtful.

It is not in tbe power of tho wisest men
in tbe State to do much towards relieving
the people of their burdena — the Legisla-
ture can however do aomething.

They can further limit tho poirer of mu-
uicipal corporations, on tho question of tax-
ation; this should be done. Mr. West, tho
oblo member of the House from Logan, has
introduced propositions looking to that co-
suit.

The measure of relief ivhicb tho people
most need is an effective law lo rostraia
wuTcrs. It is 10, 12 and Id per cent.,
noiselessly working like gravity, by day
and by night, that is wearing away the sub-
stance of the business claaso-s. One eatab-
lishment in this place, on oxtensive Noil
Manufactory, which formerly gave employ-
ment to foveral hundred persons, in eigh-
teou months time paid $36,C70 to tho mon-
ey-ohangers, above tho legal rate of inte-
rest. Iu this way its resources were ei
hausted ; this immense establiiihrncnt is now
idle. Similar specimens of various kinds
are to bo found all over tho State. If tbo
truth could be known. I suspect the tiiuri-
ous interests paid in the State, to a class of
persons who do nothing to nourish society
hy useful industry, it would be found to
exceed all the taxes paid for State and for
oounty purposes.

Tbo odoption of some such provisions aa
the following, would furnish substantial re-
lief, and aonuolly ^avu hundreds ot thous-
ands of dollars to the Industrial olaases.

but little progress in tbe completion of ner

Lho matter of simpiifyiog- Ibe running ar
rangemcnts of the different through Tine
and conaolidating short links into longe
lines. The railroads of tbe State, as n

land to Muriftta only, whioh la 173 miles,
instead of J96 from Cincinnnti to Marictin,
in this iDQiinor wo avoid counting tbo dis'
tance from Cincinnati to Lovclanil twice.
The projected lines aro as followa *

Of this character is tbv Cinclonati and Chi-
cago Air Line troin Richmund to Vnlparai-
sc. wbicb lien wholly in the State of India-
na, but yot forms tho great artery of com-
tnoice between our own commercial metrop-
olis nod Ibat of Illinois.

Tbo great cealers arnond which tbe trunk
lines otuater are Cleveland and Toledi
tbo north and Ciocinnati on the south. And
if wo may ho allowed a little latitude,
would add Pittsburgh on tho east. There
are. of course, minor pointa whero tbo great
trunk tines crose each other, suob as Gallon,
Crrstlino, Columboa, Dayton, eto. But the
four points already named are the great cen-
tral points where tho through trunk lines
terminate, and which control in a great
measure, the commerce of tbo State.

The unfinished lines ate tho
Cleveland, Zanesvillo and Cin., from Mil

lersburg to Zanesville.
Dayton, Xenia and Belpre. from Xenia tc

Belpre.
Fremont and Ind., from Findlay to Union.
Marietta and Cioclnoati. from Ciocinnati t<

Loveland. and from Marietta to BollaJr.
Scioto and Hookiog Valley, from Hamden

to Neivark.
Springfield. Mt. Vernon and Pittaburch,

from Delaware lo Lokovillo.

Some of these will never he completed,
their necessity being obviated by rival
routes. It !-■* probnble. however, thai lho
iUuricltn and Cinciituati Kailroad will be
finished from Marietta to Wheeling, as c(
siderablo nork has already been done

of the link will give it a through connection
■- Pittsburgh.

Of tbo projected linos, wo have not re-
ceived nay sluieoient of the oonditii

Ashtabula and New Lisbon road for
- lime past. Tho Daylon and Cincin-
Short Lino has done nothing for several
years. Much work was done on it previous
■ 1857. But since then we believe noth-
ing has been Bpent on tbe line. Tho orgau-

"'on is kept up, nod the company hope
yet by aomo means to complelo tbo line. It
would probably be the best arrangement for
all parlies if tho roads rnnniog out of Ci
einnali to tbo northward would unite in pi
chasing and Completing the line aa a uni
entrance into tbe city for their fast express
trains. Tbo cost to each would bo oouipar-
atively trifling, and by Ibis means they
would savi.' considerable time on the oity
approach c?.

Tho Allanlio and Great Wostorn lEailroad
is a great projected line whioh commences
BtBucktootli on tlio New York and Erie
Ituilroad, and is designed as lho biond gauge
extcnaion of this line across FennsylvaniD
and Ohio to tho Ohio und Mississippi liail-
road at Cincinnati. It is completed as fai
us Jamestown, about twenty-fivo miles. nni]
work is progressing toward tho Ponusylva-
nia Stoto Line. In its jiassage through
Ohio it is designed lo take in its routo War-
ren. Akron, Mansfield, Gallon, Marion, Ur-
biiua. Springfield and Dayton. It was un-
dertaken by tho English bondholdori of the
New York and Erie Railroad, and if com-
pleted at all will be completed by theiu. It
ia quite probable that they will finish it at
least to the intersection of the Cleveland
and MabooingRailroad, or perhaps to Akron.
If they would then stop there and expend
the balaiico of the money in reducing the
eaugo of tho whole line, incloding tho Erie
Railroad, they would then have a short line
Irom New York to nil points at the West,
and a tine that could bo more economically
operated than the present broad gauge.

The fact that no now llnea havo been
opened during the past year (hons that the
Ohiosystcmis now nearly complete. There
aro 2^6 miles of railroads in operation in a
State whose area is 39,9&1 square miles,
which is equivalent to one mile of railroad

a little less than fourteen mites of sur-
face— or in other words, were the roads
placed in eiaot parallelogram, no spot in tho
ihole Slate of Ohio would be more than
even miles from a railroad. Tho Stale of
Ohio ia just obout siily ytars old, and yet
in its railroads and canals is in advance
of tiio older Slates of the Unioo, und rivals
the most densely populated countries of tbe
orld.

In tbo year 1840 there were but tbirty-
X miles of railroad iu operation in this
State. In 1850 Ihere were 366 miles only

Wc havo just learned from a reliable gen-
tleman of Now Castle, the circumstances ol
very unusual occurrence in that place just
jfore Cbriatmas, which we deem it proper
should ho plaood before tho people of Ken-
tucky. Some forty or sixty negroes, all
alaves. bad been engaged in killing hogs for
of tho citizens of New Castle at night.
About tliat time, and after the work was

and busily dispersed of their own accord.

Wo deem it duo to tho peace and sccurily

ities may bo put on their guard, un^

that at about tbo same time, or shortly

burses, with it full supply of provisions be-
longing lo tlioir owners, and made their es-
cape into Indiana. They were immediately
pursuud by their owners into Indiana and
overtaken ; but Ihe owners were notified by
the population that they should not arrest

notified to leave tho State without delay.

The public admiration of tbo beautiful
lines " Over th-' Iliver," first published m
the Republiran in Augnst, 1857. Bod tho in-
qoiry as to their origin hiive not jot ceased.
Wo meet the littlo poem and the query as
to whero it cnmo from, among out oichan-
ges, almost doily ; but not till "ow liavo ire

which it lias heretofore borne. " Lisiie

The thousands who have been touched by

ifo broke a sullen silence of thirty-sii
hours by proposing n, division of tbo prop-
erty, which eonsistod of two yokes of cat'
le, one wagon, camp furniture, n small
quantity of proviaiona, and $12 in silver
Tho proposal was accepted, and forthwith
"plunder" was divided, leuriug tho
)n to tho old man, and thp daughter to
nothor. The latter eichang«d with a
^-^hboriug train the eattlo beFon^inp^ to
her. for a pony and paok saddle, and piling
the daughter and her portion of the divided
loil upon tho animal, she resolutely start-
1 across the desert by the Lessen trail,
whilo tho old man silently yoked the cattle
and took the other route. Singular os this
may seem, it is novortholGss true. It is

Stbo many occurrences of Blranger
ction. Of course both parties reach-
ed Culifomia in safety. Wo say. "of
course." for it Is scarcely possible that any
obstacle, death included, could bavo aeri-
isly inlerfernd with the progress of stub-
bomacas so sublime. Arriving at Sacra-
0 with bet daughter, the old lady read-
ily found employment — for women were less
plenty than now — and subsequently opened
' irdiag house, and iu a fow years amaas-
handsome fortune- Two years ago she
; lo San Prancisco, and the (Inughtor,
lo education hod not been neglected,
married to one of tho most auhstantini
citizens.

And what became of tho old man ? Tho
wife had not seen or heard of him since they
.artcd on the Humboldt. They had lived
.appily together as man and nifo for years,
nd she sometimes reproached herself for
he wilfalness which separated them after
o long a pilgrimaee together through this
rough life. But he was not dead. We
cannot trace his course in California, how-
All that wo know of him Ls that for-
tune had not smiled upon him, and that for
years he bad toiled iritljout hope. Finally,
feeling scarcely able to longer wield the
pick and shovel, he viaited San Francisco,
in tho hope of obtaining employment better
adapted to his wasted strength.

For three months bo remained idle after
arriving here, aud then, for want of occupa-
tion, became the humble letailerof peanuts
and oranges, with bis entire stock of traffic
~ a. basket upon his arm. This was about
I months ago. A few weeks since, in
passing tho open door of a cottage in tbo
southern part uf the city, he observed a
Udy in the hall, and stopped to offer his
merchandise. As ho stepped upon the
threshold, the lady approached, and tbe old
man raised his eyes and dropped the basket.
And no wonder, either, for she was his
ife— histoid woman;"

The follonhig aoraoivhat remarkable nnr-
rjtive is related by a nestoru lady, now on
a visit to this city from Mnripoea. She is
herself a charoclor. She has crossed the

Elains twice— first in 18-iO, during which
er husbaud perished — and is tho first Amer-
ican lady ivho returned to tho East by way
of the Isthmus of Panama. She is ii genu-
ino heroine, a fino specimen of slout-heart-
ed western womanhood ; and her adventures
in tbo wilds of tbo unpeopled West have
been numerous and eioitiog. If tbe good
folks of Moriposu have misaed a lady from
their neighborhood, they are hereby appris-
ed that she is comfortably loooted nt tbo
boarding houao of Mrs. Neabit, on tho cor-
ner of Montgomery and Sutter streets, and
wUI not return to tho mountains until
Holmes of the Gaitllt ceases to burrow the
hearts of Mariposa mothers by calling thei
Uttio babies ■■ bruts."

sects tho Carson track of travel, sho visitod
the tent of an elderly couple and ono child
— adaaghtor of fourteen or fifteen years. —
Tho old lady was sitting on a pile of blank-
ets under tho canvas, onoouraging] u most
determined attack of tho "sulks." wbilo
the masoulino head of affairs had planted
himself on his wooden tongue, and was
sucking his pipe as leisurely as Ihiiugh he
espeoted to remain there forever. A aingle
glance developed the fact tbot thero was a
diffienUy in that little train of one wagon
and three persons, and that it had attained
a point of quiet desperation beyond tho
reach of o peaceful adjustment. Three
days before thoy had pitched their tent at
the forks of tho road, and as they could not
agieo upon the route by wUoa to enter
California, there thoy had remained. The
husband oipreseed a piofercnco for the Car-
son road, tlia trifo for tho Lessen, and nollh-

ihould be open to the strictest scrutiny.

I wooldbewantingin gratitude if I should

publicly assert that, from tho time I left

home, I met with tbo uiost kindly attentions

: came in contact. At Norfolk I waited
upon Gen. Iluger for the purpose of obtain-
ing his authority to let mo pass through tho
country unmolested. He informod nio that
■ - vould with pleasure give me a letter to
I. Hiploy. at Charleston, and ivould have
;ady and bring it to the Atlantic Hotel,
whero I bad put up. Wbilo at tho hotel,
(ho train for the South was about to start
Lieut. Hugor, oamo to mo ond
asked whether I got his father's letter.
Finding I had not, ho immediately wrote a
lines to Gen. Itipley, and informed me
that his father's letter should bo forwarded

to Charleston, via Petersburg, Va., and
ugbout the routa I met with marked
attention from tho conductors iu seeing to
my baggage, when there was a change of

cim Norfolk to Charleston.
At Charleston I put up at tho Charleston
Hotel, orriving in tho evening of the 26lh

t took a carriage and was conveyed to his

was ushered into on onto room thereof, until
a messenger could take my card and Lieut.

ir brought back word that tbe General
juld pay no attention to my application,
id my heart sank within me. The mes-
ngec seemed to sympathize with ue In

distance to aco my son.

immediately summoned their husbands to
go iu quest of such aid as would

kind ladies I one a world ot gratitude for
their solicitude and generous assistance.
One of tbo gentlemen, Mr. James McCarty,
went to tho General's office and procured a

me the minister of the church to whom I

date of tbo above letter, ana before Mi.
Smith reached Columbup, u number of poli-
tical prisoners were returned from Camp

for some hours proceifina- their departure,
they were placed on exhibition in tbo Stato
House, aud that during tho show, an aged
prisoner, apparently twj sick and feeble to
endure tbe fatigue of standing, awaited tbe
close of the performance, lying on the stone

that this old man was Christian M. Smith,

Immediately on the receipt of this letter,
Mr. Smith hastened to Columbus. Ou ap-

referred to Governor Tod, to whom bo pre-

Paper Money— Opinion of Oeorge
Wasblnplon.

Peter Cooper, of New York city, has ad-
dressed a petition to Congress in referonoejto
tbe proposed issue of paper money by the
Federal Guvernment. After referring to a
letter addressed by a member of tho Mary-
land Legislature to George Washington, in
regard to an issue of paper money by that
State, Mr. Cooper says, speaking of Wosh-

His reply was in tho following ever to bo
cmeiubered words. Ho said; "Had I a
■oico in your legislature I would givo it de-
cidedly against tho emission, for the roasoo
that tho peopio always mistake us to the
amount of money necessary for a circu-
lating medium." He said, that "it is not
"'le nmouut of money in the country that
lakes it plenty, but it is the rapidity and
Iho certainty with which it passes the round
' ~ oulation, and that iu exact proportion
i alloy tho precious metals or your pa-
,onoy in tho volume of circulating me-
justin that proportion will ovory-
thing in Q country rise," and that labor
" bo thu last that would feel it.

would not bonoQt tho farmer or tho mechan-
It will only benefit tho debtor, as it

ouablo him to pay debt with a shadow

instead of a substance."

in the world, that they have tbe power of

This, therefore, changes tbe whole char-

a cabal o( politioiana, who take in or kiok

answer their special purpo^ei, and bow to
their designs. Thia is tlie upshot of the
matter, and it is os highly revolutionary

and dangerous lo public liberty, than a
revolution in arms. Whether the potty
ambition of politicians and the olamor of

hiY LORH-It has come lo (he knowledge
of tho Liverpool Shipowners' Association,
through the public prints that the Federal
Government of the United -States havo sunk
a stone squadron in tho mab channel of
Charleaton harbor. This proceeding can-
fail aorioualy and permanently to ia-
the entrance to that harbor. The Aa-
....ation fears that, unless strung represon-
tationa and remonstronoes ore promptly
made, a similar course may be immediatoly
followed in tho case of tho other harhore of
the Confederate States. Tho Association
does not think it necessary to dwell at

merce, but feel.'! caUe<I upon, aa represent-

fear of tbe Association that unless strong

informed of tho view taken of it by her
Majesty's government.

Lord Lyons wns (old that such a oroel

an would seem lo imply Japair of the

storation of Ike Vnian, tbo professed ol).
Jeotof tho wac; for il never could bo tho
wish of tbe United Slates government to
destroy cities from whioh their own country
was to derive a portion of its riches and
prosperity. Suoh q plan could only bo
adopted us a measure of revenge and of ir-
remediably injury against an Dnomy.

Lord LyouB wM further told thnt evon as
a BchoQio of embittered and sanguinary war
such a measure would not bo justifiable. —
It would be ap/ol fl^aini( (Ac commerce of
all marrlimt tiaiions, aud against tbe free
inlercourao of tho Southern fi tales of Amer-
ica with tbo civilii:ed world. Lord Lyons
was desired to ppeak in this sense to Mr.
Seward, who, it was bopod, would disavow
Iho illegal project.

Now, boncver, that the project bcems to
hnvo been carried into effect at Charloston,
Lord Lyons will be instructed to make a
further representation to Mr. Seward, wilh

than wo should havo lost in all liumon proh-

. Do you reply that there is a general who
Btandfl in tho way ol the onward march of

take him out of tho way. and let his place
be OCCupiod by another, if tbia ia the only
remedy lor so terrible an evil. Geaeraln are
nothing of themselves in this great contest,
when thrown intotbo balance against tho
honor and integrity of the Union. Sir, if
the angel Gabriel bud command of our forces
and be foiled todohis whole duty ond march
out (against the enemy. I would at once
petition that conrt to which he holds allegi-
ance, and ask for hi« instant dismissal.

This war has reached a point where kid
gloves, pleasant worda and gilded proraiaea
oto of no further use. Tho ciigencies of
tho hour demand hard words, and still
harder blows; for remember, this contest
most close, cither in the ruio of a Republic
that baa filled the eyes of the best men of
the world with admiration, aud poseibly the
dOBtruotion of civil and religious freedom in
America, or in tho more perfect supremacy
of law and order, and tho renewed stability

Mr. GURLEY. Every member present
nnd tho trhole country will recognize much
'wspaper article. Wn havo
let slip golden opportnailies for crushing
out this rebellion, and for achieving brilliant
victories; we have failed lo follow up signal
esses when once landed upon tho one-
sboree; but tbe deolarolion that our
entered the Army for pay, and will not
fight, we alt know to be asfalso as falsehood
itself. The greFit and only cnupe of dissat-
isfaction among our troops ia, that thny are
not pernutted to strike down tbo rebels.
Call for men f>r a dresa parade, and about
five hnndred of a regiment will appear;
oke a call in camp for a regimeut to go on
duty whore fighting is to be done, and near-
ly every man will respond. "Hero am I."
This I know to be true; but there ore loud
id bitter complaints, whether just or un-
Juit I will notsoy here, that tbe comraander-
ehlef, the general at the head of our for-
ces, has held them back for moutha when
they hove often seen victory right before

ir, 1 prffer no charges njainst him.
That be ia a good and loyal man I havo no
donbl : that be i? a brave officer ia perhaps
true : and that he ia a skillful commander I
shall not now question ; hut that man does
not live, that man does not breathe, io my
judgment, who can command with that suc-
cess rec]uirv(! six hundred thousand men,
acotlered over a territory extending over
two thousand miles; and yet ho has been
holding the Ihri^ad ibat guides and conlrole
' body of men, liirger than any man
of mudero times has cominauded. Indeed,
tbe destiny of this great ttennblio baa
long hung upon the volition of hia will, for
the Army that must decide the weal or woe
of this country only moves as his mind di-
rects. It requires no great military soicnce
decide, it requires nothing higher than
mmon sense tu comprehend the fact tbnt
ia impoaaiblo for a man standing upon tbe
obs of the I'otomac to guide and control
army in detail a thouaaud or two miles
distunt so OS to successfully meet tbe sud-
igenciea that must arise, requiring al-
istont movements and attaoka upon
tbo enemy. Nothing abort of omniscience
ipresence would qualify him for so
vast u ronponsibtlity, and so great n work.
No oLhcr Government inveata its generals
ucb untimitod authority ; and al-
though France and Kngland have some of
'' ^ St trained, best educated, unj ablest
generals in tbo world, no man baa been
id bigb enough, no man bos been found
great enough to receive the supreme oom-
land of even three hundred tboosand Bold-
!rs. Sir, tho idea that the destiny of tbia
lighty Republic, with ita Army of bolf a
iiriion men, with its great wenllb, its mul-
iplied interesta, its hopes and fears, should
scluaively rest with a single general in ^bo
field, and he an untried rimui with almost
imited power, ia not only anti-republican
alarming, but moaslruos to the last de-
e. Wo seo tho necesaity dally of aome
eion in tho military power ; of ita being
ided by tbe Commander-in-Chief among
competent generals, widely separated, ao as
' ' _ " ulatien, enterprise, and give
the spring to doeda of dariog and genuine
chivalry,

A part of the tremrndoue burden thrown
□ pen tho ebouldera of our young general
should bo removed and divided in a way to
call out tbe beat energies of tho best olh-
crrs, and ol the same timo aocore general
unity of netion. Had tbia [
months ago. I bavo no doubt thi
cess of our nrma would have bee
OS glorious; hut thua far

lamely, preventing live hundred Ihoufand
nen from attemptiog precisely what they
lame together to accoiDplish — to figbt and
rbip theenemy. Thfly havn not been per-
nitted to move forward, however certain
tho prospect of victory in the minds of of-
ficers in immediate command, lest some fa-
vorite scheme should bo marred or ruined
by precipitotingin general dngageinent.

Will it be sai J that no one can know so well
when a division of tho Army may safely ad-
the commanding general in Wash-
ington? That may he where he has an im-
mediate supervision; but why should ofE-
cors of eqoal ability, who are in Iho valley
of the Mississippi, o thousand milea distant,
with their men. who arc familiar with tbe
country and the position of the enemy, nnd
know from personal observation just when
and tahrre to strike, be compelled lo wait
for special orders from here before they con
makoliQ odvance!

Sir, 1 wish Just in this place to notice one
■emarkablo foot oonneoled with tbia war.
Eight out of ten of the subordinate officers
ra in oar Army, tbe very men
bare tbsir breasts before the firu
of tbe enemy, the very men who must re-
ceive tbe shook of battle and tho rain of
bullets, are precisely those who complain
0 tbey are not permitted to go
forward and fight. Those upon tho ground,
and who see and know tho danger, and re-
alize the strength of the rebels, ought to be
able tu form a correct judgment oa to
whether tbey can whip them or not. lieavo
ibe question to them, and ten out of twelve
would voto that there has beon no neooaSity
for tbe delay of the lost four months,

But what is ihot great plan wbich has
stood io tbe way of our onward movement 1
I reveaino secret-, I presume, fori shall only;
cpeat what Ibo newspapers have published,
ind we all know tbey never toll eiorioa, on- '
ly indulge in occasional flights of fancy ! I
shall slate what 1 think is true; that tho
plan was to strike nt all points at once— al
simple impossibility; make a simuttaneona
attack upon the enemy oast and west. Bvc-'
ry arrangement was to be made in Missouri,
Kentucky and Virginia, and preparations
pcrfeoted as far ns could be, so that, ae by a;
single tick of the clock, ail would rush up-
on the enemy at once ond crush tho monster i
rebellion at a single blow. What has beon
the practical working of this, or if not tbis,,
of any other plan 7 Our Army has been)
months getting ready lor ita rcalizationl
ailing impatiently for the nitc anil prt-\
adjustment of all parts of tbe maobino-i
ry of this achemo ; but us the enemy ia noti
alike weak in all places, being strong in|

'~id weak in others at any given lime,i

us far from its esccution ag wo were!
nmer; ond whatever our Army now'
accompliahoa must be accomplished as the
troops ia Kentucky have recently and glo-
ously done, not by a signal from Wosh-
igton — if they wait for that they wijl never
) anything — but by striking boldly at the
enemy when nnd wlioro you can find him.
■"■ ) far as tliu Potomac is concerned, howev-
, we are compelled to say, "Tbeharvtiit
past, tbo summer ie ended, and wo are not i
ved." We puat now drop alt such im-
practicable p la iia and figbt, or be called a
nation of coivards.

Why should tho grent ormy of tbe Union
main idle when the people everywhere,
soldiers and civilians, are imploring for and
'loanding active movements against the
rebels in the South .' Sir, the people of East
'ennessee, for eiample, have long beeu uak-
ig for tea thousand men to save their part
of the State from the desolating hand of the
rebels, and their wivea and children and
families from insnlt, persecution and starva-
" n. How have their prayers been anawer-
7 By an ancogocement tbot we hove no
troops that can be Epared from the great
Army ; yet there are absent froai the I'oto-
:— or were a few days ago, and this is
lOt the average at all times — on buaine.sa
ploaaure or other objects, nearly one
thouaaod officers and over seven thousand
privates, a grcot army of themselves, and
iny ns were required to save Ten-
', and for the lack of which largo num-
bers of citizens hove been imprisoned, sbot,
id hung ; and atill larger numbers driven
)m their homes and hunted like tho wild
beaata of the forest. Why were not eight
ten thousand men from thi a great Army
sent at nn early day on an errand so im-
and which would have secured tho
great railroad over which tbe rebels carry
tbeir troops and supplies? Why. in these'
times of peril, give leave ofabaenco to eight
thousand soldiers, and yet plead tho want of,
men in reply lo a people who choso to sac-;
rifice all they bad in this world rather thno
desert the flag of the Union? Unlike as,
they were in tho power of tbo infuriated
confederates; in the very jawa of tho lion,
but boldly dared them todo their worst ; aud
yet wo have left these loyal people to suffer,
to hide iu tbe caves and tbe mountains, and
0, under tbe plea that we hove no
army to send to tbeir rescuoi when soma two
hundred thousand well fed troops in thia
neighborhood bavo been three or fonrmentbs
begging ond pleading to be led ngainst the
enemy rather than pine away in comp. To
show the condition and character of these
iple in Eastern Tennessee I will aak to
'e read an eitraot of a letter dated Jan-
uary 15, written from Kentucky, and pub-
liabed in the New Vork '/Viiunc

Mr. WICKLIFFE. Will tho genUeman
allow me to ionuiro tlie date of that letter 7

Mr. GURLEY. It is dated JoTiuary 15,
1662.

But wo need not go to other regions for
illustrntioua of tho wont of enterprise and
3n tho part of tho controlling and acting
manager of the Army. Sir, I am informed
on outhority wbich I am not permitted to
question, that some tbreeiweeks ago from
ten to fifteen thousand Confederatos, in the

ighborbood of Itomnoy, were virtually in
tho power of n division of our Army, num-
bering about forty thousand. General Lan-
der sent a messenger to General Kelly, say-
ing in substance, "Wo bavo got them now
ertuin — Join me;" aud General Kelly.
'ithout the knowledge of auch a messenger.
sent one of bis own bearing a similar mes-
sage, showing that both conoorred in tbo
same thing. Meanwhile, one of those Gen-
erals telegraphed General Bauks lo advance
on one side, while he advanced upon tbe oth-
er ; but, unfortunately, telegraphed nt the
same time to hcadquaTters in reference tOi
what was going on, when an answer onme in
tbe form of an order jial to advance, accom-
panied with a severe reprimand for even tho
suggestion; and this, too, when able offi-
oers on the ground saw, or thought they
saw, moro than ten thousand men complete-
ly in their power. Tho capture of this
army, which wa.s]almosI surrounded by an
immense force of ours, about forty thousand
men, would hove fired the whole country
with enlhuaiaam, and lifted tho nation up
from a general distrust ef tho cfRoienoy of
those in high comroaod. That tho bottle
would have sadly broken in upon some great,
plan, or favorite sohome, ia quite probable ;
it might have finished tbe great anaconda,
as tho newspapers have eipresaed it ; but it
must not bo forgotten that Ibis mammolb
reptile, that woa to draw In his folds and
crush tbe rebellion at a single sweep of his'
tail, has already Gwaltowcd up our contem-
jilalcd victories nnd gorged himself with tho
subslance of tho people to no purpose. —
Sir. tlietu la no use to disguise the fact, tbo
commanding, general is responsible for tbe
inaction of our Army.

Leastbun thirty daye ago n tried general
io Missouri sent forward several thousand
cavalry against Gonorn! Price, and waa
about to follow with ten thousand infantry,
with oVery prospect of success — with almost
a certainty, as an ofGoer expressed it who
well knew tbe strength of tho enemy; but
all at ooee an order came from a superior
officer there, to halt — to go no further. Is

Why, sir, tbe brilliant battle of Frederick-
ton, Missouri, was fought without orders
from the commanding general in Missouri,
if not against thim, which latter 1 believe
wn* the fuel.

Mr. KELLOGG, of Illinois. I desire to
oak the gentleman from Ohio nhether tbe
battle of Frcderiokton waa in fact fought
ngaiust orders, and if no, what and whose

Mr. GURLEY. I do not propose to go

to the details. I ouly state tbe fact as ]

iderslaud it.

Mr. KELLOGG, of lUinois. If the gen-
tleman states the fact, I would like exceed-
ingly if the gentlemon would state the or-
der, and who it came from, not to fight that
battle.

Mr. GURLEY- I decline to go into de-
tails,

Mr, KELLOGG, of Illinois. Then I aak
the gentleman to permit me to say that in
my judgment he ia mistaken.

.Mr. GUItLEY. I stated that tbe battle
was fought without orders from the com-
manding general, (u I understood, hut upon
orders given by General Curtis. It was
vithout tho order of tho commanding ^en-
Tal, who waa at that timo far away trom
St. Louis. 1 have so understood, and, in
fact, I saw tbo order telegraphed by the
commanding general binself, for the return
of reinforcements sent in that direction.

The recent battlo in Kentucky, which re-
lulted so gloriously, woa fought only when
I or troops were attacked; no officer from
hero directed an attack at that time, ul-
thougb it was undoubtedly in the great plan
that they should be ready, and possibly the
commanders had leave to advance as they

ight judge best.

Sir, only give our western generals full

>wer to march against the enemy at wiU,

id tbe war, so far as tbe Sonlb-west is con-

rned, will close in ninety days with the
possession of the Miaaisaippi river from our
northern frontier lo tbo Gulf. Untie tho

d lapo about tbeir handsi and tbey will
ion find their way there, or perish ia the
attempt, for never were soldiers in such
terrible earnest as oara are in the Weat to-
day. Say to tbo generals, push on your
columns; march forward as you will, but
crush tho rebellion at all hazorda, and it
will as fiurcly be dene as that the Father of
Waters moves toward the aeo.

But I shall bo told, perhaps, that thia
would be unwise, beconso we are now ju?l
on the eve of a grand forward movement.
Ah ! sir, how long and often has that for-
ward movement song been euog7 How
many months have the peoi>le been beguiled
with it .' It was to come as soon as the hot
weather bad gone ; it was to come with the
cool autumn breeze; it waa sure to come
when Providence smiled upon Qa and length-
ened out our charming foil weather into o
winter month; but now when is it to oome?
Ob; as soon aa Ibo mod is dried op on tbe
other Bide of tho river, which is now deep
enough to swallow tbo largest battery,
which will be. I reckon, about ceit Jone,
and then it will bo too hot. i fear that tbe
weather will never be jnst right for us till
we realize more fully our responsibilities
and danger; and should tbo commanding
general hold a check over onr impetuous
soldiers till spring, and keep them at u safe
distance from tbe enemy, end refuse to per-
mit them to gather up ten or fifteen thoo-
gand men where they almost ask lo bo
caught; if bo shall still permit tbe blockade
lo progress on the lower Potomac, almost

der tbo eye of the General Government,

r reputation abroad for courage and chiv-
alry will soon bo equal to that of the Cbi.
oese; and yet there ate no braver soldier.
in the world than those who are now in our
camps, nud who are bitterly bemoaning lb.
fate that prevents them from doing the worl;
they were sent to do. Why, air, Unr.' In,.
beon no time within tbo last Ibrc" montli-,
in the judgment of first-cloaa Army officii.,
when ten or fifteen thousand men could ne:
have quietly gone from hero to Weatem
Virginia ond (laiabed tbe war there once fc-
alt. They would have hardiv bo»n miesed
till ready to return. A hundred thousand
soldiers would havo leaped for joy nt thn
order to go; hut no, this most likely would
'lave infringed upon aomo great plan, anii
itirred up tbo great anaconda loo soon !

Sir, tho blockade of the Potomao alone,

under tho eye of some two hundred tboa-

- i\ well armed and equipped soldiers, and

lin sound almost of cannon from tha

proud Capitol of the nation, is enough to

Bon the cheek of every American,

cause him to hide his bead for very

abame.

Mr. Chairman. 1 am very auiro that the
Commander-in-Chief, tbo President, is ai
)us as any man in the country that tho
shall be prosecuted with vigor; bat
from necessity be must rely mainW opoa
the judgment of tbo first military officer i
ita managomeat. While I know that ho i,
bobind none in seal for forward movemenli,
1 presumo that ho does not feel justified in
setting up bis judgment as tbe standard for
military operations ; and his multlplicil
dntioa leave him liltlo time to atudy the plans
of battles. No man in tho nation, however,
is more anxious for tho speedy sdppreaaiOfl
of tho rebellion, nnd ho will Hecnnd. I bavfl
no doubt, every daring and wise object to
acoompliah that object.

Mr. Chairman, no one can dislike mer«
than I do to criticise io terms of BevorilT
the conduct of this war ; I woold rather a
thousand times pr "

manding general ;

this la no place for flattering and deceitfnl
words. Sir, it is a scrions question with
many honest minds whether this Congresf,
thia Government, and this great nation ore
not to-day sleeping upon a yoicane. Mur-
murs, deep and strong, are every wliiro
coming up from tho people ngainat tho in-
action of tbe Army; they are amaacd anil
grieved that tho most intelligent body of
soldiers iu tbo world are restrained by a
single hand from vindicating the honor of
our Hag upon tho battle-field. Meanwhile,
thopublio Treasury is being drained for
their support; the floota of three powerful

military do not arouse themaelves In epeedy
action, and strike quick, ehorp, and heavy
blows, some fine moruing those fleets may
make a visit to our southern coast, politeij
announce to ns that cotton is nn nhaolule
necessity in Europe, and tho blockade mue^
continue no longer. All this is not only
possible, but in tbecontingenoy of continu-
ed inactivity, and the standing menace o:
tho rebel nrmy against Ibis capital, alme^:
at ita very gates, highly probable.

But I aee at last a streak of dayligli!
ahead. 1 aee it resting on the choir of ib^
now Seorotorj of War, a man who, if rt-
port speaks truly, is like br:vvo Ben Wadti
of Ohio — a good combination of Old Hicb-
oory and Zack Taylor. He certainly ap
pears lo have a mind of his own, a brain to
plan aud on iron will to oxeoule ; and if I
am nut greatly mistaken, he will push ea
Xhin war with all tbe vigor that characterized
the peoplo in raising so vast, so mighty au
Army. Let us thank God and take courage,
uud unite all our energies with hitt, as well
03 the Chief Alagistroto's, that wo mny
bring it to a speedy and glorious termination.

Mr. COX obtained tbo floor.

Mr. VALLANDIGIIAM. I uuderstoo.i
that my colleague desires to go on to-nigbi.
but that the debate has beeu limited upon
this bill to one boor, which baa nearly oi-
pired, I ask that, by unonimous consent,
the bill under considerntioamayhe laidaside,
and soma other bill taken u]> upon which
debate has not been limited.

Mr. C9X. I suppose, by unanimous
consent, I may go on for my hour on thin
bill.

Mr. STEVENS. Do 1 understand tho

Mr. COX. Yes, sir; I wish to moke my
speech responsive to my colleago who hii?
just spoken.

A Afember objected.

Mr. COX. I think the objection comes
too lata.

Mr STEVENS. I will move that the

Sir:— Ibavo tho honor lo report to yoa
tho pBTt Uikta by tho tenth Indiana regi-
mant of Toluuloora undw my commftod. in
Ifao bottlo fougbt on tliP ISHh ins'-, ot Lo-
cao's farm, Pulaski county. Kentucky.

On tho evening of tho 18th inst-, in no
cordaooo with your order, I sent out ns
niokets companies K and I, Captaiua Shorter
aod I'erkitidi and bad thorn posted on the
road lending lo tbo fortifications oi (heono-

one mile from our camp, and Conipany K
Ibtoo hundred; yards beyond. Tho latter
ciimpniiy received instrucUona io fall back

At about half past G o'clock, on the mocn-
inu of tho 19th ihst., a oourior came lo our
quarters with information that tho enemy
wag advnncing upon our camp, and nimost
immediate!/ afterward the firing of our

I gate ordora to Maj, Miller to go forward
with Company A> Captain Uomilton. to tbo
Bunport of tbo piokot oompnDiuB. wliicb
order was promptly eieouted.

Isoon proooeuod by your order, with tho
r^miuniug soven companios of my regi-
ment, down the road in the direotiou of tho
pickot firing. When I got within soventy-
dvo yarda of those oompaniuH thoro holly
engaged, I formed tho TCglment in lino of
baltlo and rapidly disposed it for fightins-
Fivs oompoaioa extended through the woeda
] tho right of the road and the remaining
companieB on the left. A regiment of reb-
els wero advancing in line of battle, and
tbeir treasonab!" ci^ors were seen flaunting
athebreoie. Having selected as good a
position as praotlcable, 1 took a btaod aad
ordered the regiment to firo, which order
naa instantly obeyed. The firing oontiuned
without cessation for more than an hour,
daring which time wo engaged three of the
enemy's regimenta, and held them at bay.
The battio was at its hottest, and our ranki
e gradually becoming thinned and niuti-
istcd, whoD I perceived areglmeut of rebel
cavalry attempting to flank me ou the right,
aod on infantry regiment on the left. I
commanded Captain Gregory's company to
take position to meet tho cavab-y on tho
light, which it did, and opened a galling fire
upon them ; but they were fast closing in
upon us, and I eaw myself completely out-
fianked on tbo right, and that ro-inforce-
menta must toon coma tc my relief or I
would bo compelled lo fall back. I was
oventadUy forced to order mj right wing to
retire, when just as my order was being ei-
oeutod, the 4th Kentucky regiment, com-
manded by Colonel Fry, came up and look
position on the left of my left wing, and
opened a deadly firo on tbo rnnbs of the
enemy.

I now rallied tho right wing, the men with
the exception of those who bad been detail-
ed to carry off tbo dead and wounded, quietly
taking their places in the line. Just at this
time a heavy loroe appeared to be advanaing
on the extreme left of tho 4th Kentucky
regiment, and a portion of Colonel McCook'e
brigodc, which bad arrived, cngaeiog the
onecny on my right. I was ordered by
General Thomas lo the extreme left of the
4th Kentucky regiment. I mored tho reg-
iment through tho bru^h and over logs to the
place desigQDted. and coning to a fence
parallel with my line, we hotly engaged tho
enemy, and nfter a hard struggle of half an
hour's duration, drove him before us and put
him to flight with great loss. Apart of my
hft wing atill engaged on the right of the
■1th Kentucky, against groat odds, being
strongly oppoEed, I was again ordered by
General Thomas to their support I fortb-
with obeyed this command, and in doing so
bronght my right wing upon tbs identical
ground it bad beeuforced to abandon during
the earlier pnrtof tho engagement, I Iheu
moved forward the whole right wing and
port of tho left, and soon got into a fierce
contest with tho enemy in front. Tiie whole
regiment from right to left was now warmly
engaged, and slowly but suroly driving the
enemy before them when I ordered a "charge
bayonets ! " which was promptly oieonted
along tho whole line. Wo eoon drove the
enemy from his place of cooecalmeot in the
woods into an open field, two hundred yards
from where 1 ordored tho charge. When
we arrived at tho fonco in our tront. many
(if tbo enemy were found lingering in tho
comers, und were bayoneted by my men
through tho ruilii.

I pressed onward, and soon beheld with
satisfaction, that tbo enemy wore moving
in retreat across the field; but I suddenly
saw them halt in the southeast corner of the
field, ou a piece of high ground, where they
rocoired considorablo reinforcements <ind
modoalast nnd desperate effort to repulse
our troops. In the meantime tho 'gallant
Colonel McCook, with hia invincible lUh
Ohio regiment, come to our support, and
for twenty or thirty minutes a terrific
struggle ensued between the opposing for-
ces. I never io all my mibtary career saw
11 harder fight. Finally tbo enemy began
to waver and give baokheforo the shower of
lead and gUttering aleol brought to bi-ar on
hn shattered ranks, aod he commenced a
precipitate retreat under a storm of bullets
from our advaocing forces until his retreat
became a pprfeot rout. I ordered enough
men to bo left lo atUud to our dead ond
woonded, and receiving a now supply of
■cartridges, (the moat ofour boxes being on-
liroly empty,) ;ihe men refiUed their botes,
ind according to your order, I put tbo regi-
ment in motion after the retreating enemy.
Pumuing them the same evening a disUnoe
of ttn miles, wo arrived near tho enemy's
imifications at this place. The way by
which tho cnomv had retreated gave evi-
dence that they bad been in bast*) to reach
their den! Wagons, cannon, muskets,
swords, hlankots, etc., etc.. were strewn all
(^ung tho roads from tbo batUe field to with-
in a miloof iiiig pinpp^ ^Ijp,^ j ,j^,(j,j ^■^^^
rrigimunt. and the men slept on their
in tbo open field.

The men by this timo wero powdoi >,«-
smeared, tUcd, nnd hungry, having bad
oolbing lo ent since the previous night.—

D the following morning, tho 20th in»t.,
i^er our artillery had nhelled tho enemy's
orks, by your order, I moved my regi-
lent to his breastworks and into his desert-
d intrenchments, whore I have since re-
mained.

It may bo Interesting t» state here that
our regimental colors, which wero those
presenltd by tho ladies of Lafayette, and
baiii'> in triumph at the battle of Rich Uoun-
tnJu. were completely turu into shreds by
the bullets of the enemy. I have bad its

I cannot speak in termBofaufiicient praise
of the noble ond gallant conduct of some of

duty and fought like true veterans. Major

and in tho thickest of the fight cheering on

ble assistance during the day. Assistant
Sdrgcou C. S. Perkins, and tbo Rov. Dr.
Dougborty, Chaplain of Iho lOtb regiment,
rendered volunblo servioo in thoir unrelenl-
log attention to the wounded, Quartormas-
'or Oliver S. Rankins, and Nelson B Smith,
if tho some department, are entitled to great
credit for the prompt manner in whiob they
brought up and supplied Ihe men with cart-
ridges. Commissary Sergeant David B.
Hart, our Itiob Mountain guide in the three
;bs' service, was present and in tbo line
H duty, Fife and drum Majors Dau'l
and James Conklin shouldered muskets and
fought valiantly during the early part of the
engagement, after which they wore of great
service in carrying off and attending to tho
wounded. Captains Hamilton, Boyfe, J. F,
Taylor, Carroll and Short, Ihc Ihrtr young
'■(■ers. were through the entire battle, where
one but the brove and gallant go, and con-
tinually pressed forward with their men
when tbo bailie raged the hottest, and rebels
wore found most plenty. Capt. Vanamdall,
of Company B, was prasent. and discharged
bis duty taitbfully until the right wiug was
' ff. LieutenauU Cobb. Goben, Mo-
Van Natta, Johnson, McCoy, Bush,
Bo.i^ivell, Shumate and Hunt deserve tho
highest praise fur their brave and gallant
conduct. Lieut. MoAdams fell while nobly
loading on his men. Lieut. Bush command-

Many individual nets of bravery might be
entioned, such ns those of Orderly Ser-

3orly Sergeant Abraham A. Carter, who
look a gun and fought manfully during the
intervals that his eervices were not required

GeneralsHuDter and Lane.

A few weeks ago the telegraph was dash.
,ng daily with statements m rutaronoe to tho
rrent things to be eipeclod from Gen, Jos,
H- Lane. Tho President baa given bim
full power to do just what be pleases and
' " whatever policy BuiteJ him. in oarry-
ul tbe object of his big expcdiiioa.
Conversations with tbo President and Gen.
McClcllan were detailed, ahoiring the vast
jfideuco of these distinguished officials
tho plans of tbe Kansas General, and
their approval, in advance, of everything
going lo do. When all was arranged
lane started out from Washington foi
laic line of operation," stopping ai
3 points to enlighten the publio as t(
ws. He spoko of bis Southern ex
peditlon, made a brilliant display of hi:
' 9', and unravelled tho intricacies of tbi
itraband question to tho iuGnito delight of
all the rndicalH. Of this the lightning and
tho press have kopt tbo world fully posted,
until "Lane's Expedition" has nwnkoned
Ibo liveliest interest, both iu rospeot to the
imjiortance of the General himself and the
effect upon tho lobellion.

At length after a tour of spoeohifying
through tho Northwusteru cities. Gen. Lane
arrived in Kansas, reaching Jjeuveuwortb,
wo believe, on Monday last. On tbo follow-
ing day Major Qen. llunter, in commnnd of
that Department, published in tbo Leavi
worth papers a gsuerol order, announcing hU
purpose to placo himself at tbo head of the

lis to which b.. U .'nliti.'d
ghor rank and better mili-
tary standing than Gen. Laav. .So much
~o will say anyhow.

Tho dispatch we publiij Uiis morning
from Leavenworth. In relation ti> an order
of Gen. Hunter, forbiding auy invasion of
Missouri by Kansas troops, and disbanding
unau thorite d armed parties^ay hawkers,
thiovos and burglars — will hardly bo olaimod
tho result of any friendly conference
with Gen. Lane. We give Gen. Hunter the
whole credit for this measure, and sinoe
jon. Lane has never lost an opportunity
o encourage and defend bis predatory bands
n stealing negroes, horses, and property of
!very description, it is not to be supposed
that this is a part of his programme for
ibing the rebellion. Gen. Hunter baa,
beyond all doubt, a lively remembrance of
tbo utter indifference with wUicb Lane,
boarding at the houso of Major Berry, iu
"- -ingfield, sitting at Uie same table wilb
wife and daughters of that gentlemnn.
connived nt, and was privy to, the stealing
of all tho servants about (he bonse by his
followers, and only bpsilated — barely
hesitated — about going buck to enjoy their
hospitahties.

Wo aro so much pleased with Gen.
Hunter's most recent order— it tallies to
exactly with what wb have said ought to be
done— that we cannot ovoid referring to it
here, ILh Order No. 13 prohibits tbo troops
of his Department from entering tbo V
partmont of Missourlwithout special ordoi
■'All armed parties, whether Tjelonglng to
the Government or not, who shall hereafter
the Kansas border and enter the De-
partment of Missouri, without due authority,
shall be adjudged to have entered for the
purpose of depredalioni. aD<l shall be held
subject to tho penalties nf military law.
All armed bands of men in tbe State of
Kansoa, not in the servici.- of tbe United
States, nor acting under special authority
obtained from the Governor of the State or
from the General Commanding, are hereby
warned to disband and return to thoir homes."
If Genera! Hunter had

iressly ordored by the Government. Thui
Lane was of coarse subordinated, and, if
given any position at all, it was that of
of tho six Brigadiers, for whom Gen. Hu
had applied to the War Department.

Tbe Chicago SViiune. commenting upon
this order of Gen. Hunter, argnos, that ■
was probably made as tbo result of a co
ference between Hunter and Lane. It says
the relations of the two are "most friendly."
Vet buoh is not tho impression we bavc
gathered. We say notliing of tho floating
reports in reference to alleged diffcreuoos
and warm altercations between them in tbo
Southwest of this State, (though Lani
Hunter duwn), on account of the kidoapprng
and jayhawklug propensities of tbe Kansas
hero, about tho close of the Fremont cam-
poign. But if there bos b-.'en any cordiali-
ty of feeling betwoen tho two, tbe issue ol
this order, on the heels of Lane's arrival io
fjeavonworth, certainly irt no proof of it.
Hunter speaks of the eipedition. "called

than that he is offended — us bejustly may

result of it was a wide differenuc betwi

Hon. William Newman, of Scioto
Conniy,

In these days of fanaticism, fusion, folly
and foolery, it is truly refreshing to come in
contact with men who have proved to the
-lorld that they ore sound in faith and pure
1 practice. It Is, indeed, pleasant to reflect
that, notwithstanding many good Democrats
have been induced to go astray, and some
bavo fallen down to worship false gods, there
aro others wbo huvo romaUied as true ID
Democratic principles as the mariner's nee-
dle is to the poles, nnd stood as firm and in-
flexible against Ihe turbulence of Republi-
can sentiments as the Rock of Gibraltar
stands against the surging billows of a tem-

Sucb a man is tbe gentleman whose name
heads this brief article, and wo speak know-
iugly. A better or a truer man to his couB'
try never lived, nor one wbo loves bis coun-
try more siucert:ly. He is honest, capable,
and trustworthy. In every sense of tbe worda,
and even tho vile tongue of slander has
never yot dared to couple his name with
dishonur, He possesses an active, vlgorooB
and enquiring mind, well stored with a vast
amount of useful and practical information,
and his stern. Jackson-like courage, intre-
pidity, coolness and discretion, combine to
qualify him, In a most eminent degree, for
any omce within the giflof tho people of his
district- Ho ia no political demagogue, turn-
coat, or time-server; but ooo of Nature's
noblemen, who is always right and never
falters. Finmk, fearless, and out-spoken, ho
never hesitates to give uu opinion, or to de-
fend it when necesiinry. fiu squirming or
dodging has ever yet marked bis career

that bn will always be found trueto tbegtoat

Such a man would be a credit to the Soioto

to Congress; and If the Democracy of that
district know their true interest, they will
take, at an early day, such stops as may be
best calculated to secure bis sorvicea in tho

We stated this a year ago when our South-

In Iho raeanlimo tbo Esaei bad been dis-

At length, at preoiaely 1:^0. the enemy
struck liis flag, and each cheering, such
wild eicitcmeut aa seized tho throats and

ma and caps of the iour or five hundred

itors of tbo Gunboats — well, imagine it!

Afltt tho surrender, which wos mode to
flagofticcr Foote by the rebel General Tilch-
man, who defended his fort in a mo>it de-
tormined manner, wo found that the rebel
infantry encampment, to tho number of soma
-1.000 or 5,000. outside tho fortifications, hod
nd run, leaving tho rebel artillery in
command of tho fort to their fate.

Tbo fort mounted Beventeon guua,moatly
G2 and ~-l-paanders ; one, however, a mag-
lificent 10-inch Columbiad. They claim lo
lavo bad but eleven effcotivo guns, worked
by fifty-four men— the number, all told, of
.)ri30nora. Our shota dismounted two
of these anemy'a guns, driving them frcm
their embrasures, tore their embankments,
and pliiycd ainaah with tbcm generally.
Ibfy lost five killed, and some ten badly
wounded. One of their rifled gona, a 32-
pounder, burst during the engagement, bad-
ly wounding one of Ineir gunners, but kill-
ing none.

Capt. Taylor, of Nashville, rebel cocn-
maudcr of tbo Port Artillery compauy. is

also our prisoner. The iufanlry fled
from their yuarlers leaving hag and baggage.
A vast dful of plunder baa fallen into our
bands, and a iargc and valuable ijuantity of
ordnance stores. Tilghman is disheartened,

id thinba it one of tho most damoging
blows of the wnt. In surrendering to oar
flagofficor the rebel general remarked : " I
am glad to aurrender lo so gallant an officer."
Flag-offioer Foote replied: "You do per-
fectly right, sir, in aurrenderiug, but you
should have blown my boata out of the
r before I would have surrendered to

Tho land force, under command of Gen-
rol Grant, did not arrive at the loit till
after the rebels bad surrendered and their
army escaped. Oor gunbouts did splendid
fighting, 1 can make no diatincliona.

The Cincinnati, however, was in the lead
ind flying the Flag officer's poonant, the
enemy's chief mark. Flag oflicer Foolo
and Capt. Stombel crowded her defiantly
into the tooth of the enemy's guns. She
got tbirly-oae shots, some of them goinc
tnrough and through her. She expended
110 shots.

Tho Essei was badly crippled. When
about halfway through the fight and crowd-
ing with a splendid heroism steadily against
tho eueoiy, a. ball wont into her port aide
forward, but pasaing through the heavy
bulkhead und squarely through one of her
boilers, the escaping steam scalded and
killed several of her crow, and badly wound-
ed many more. Copt- Porter, bis aid, J.
P. Britton. Jr., and Paymaster Lewis, were
standing on a direct lino with that of the
ball's pasatog, Britton being in the centra of
the group. 'The shot struck poor Britton
on thu top of hia head, scattering his brains
and blood in every direction. The eaoap.

killing the two U'li^l^- Ford and McDridc.

Tlic first volumu of Tiie Crisis is draw

Wo conaot fully express our grotitutle Ii

U9 tbrough tho Sery ordcol wbich wo liavo
«Qeountcrnd. Hat vi- are perfooUy willing
tbit time sboU test tbo corrcctnoss of our
course and the truths wo hovo plucod upon

Our purpose has not bocn to publish in-
diicriminatoly the "tieirs" as it came to
Land, nine-tenths of whioh is either pure
fiotion. or 80 dislortfld by tho writers for
some ignoble purpoae, thnt it is little bettei
than falsehood; but to cull from thia mass
of contradiotjons what comports with tho
Taote, and may bu thus rolled upon with Homo
certainty by the reader. "Nor,"aciid one
of the greatest of authors, '■ will it ba less
my duty faithfully to record dieaatflrs min-
gled with triumphs, and i,'reBt national orimos
and follies fnr mute humiUuting than oay
diSfl^tor." Uy thus coHnfully battling with
faleebood and error, and carefully selocting
the impartial truth, Tae CnJSis will there-
by become a valuable record for fnture ref-
arenee, so having, at least, some approaches
to the realities of transpiring ereala, in this
most oitraordinary history of our natiou
and people.

It is our purpose also to continue tbrough
tho second volume, as in the first, so clear
a poUtica! record of the past, bearing upon
the pobtioal aspect of the present, as the
nature of oar work will justify, and the
perilous condition of our country demands.
Our danger does not only consist of
those in rebellion against the Government
itself; but we are, also, continually sat-
rouadod by the daagerous sohemos of the
ambitiooe, the blunders of the ignorant, and
the wiles of those in our midst who desire,
in t^ tumult of the contending siementa, to
eap th* very foundation of so much of our
politrie*! structure, not environed by the ro-
boUious in arms ; to strike at the indepen-
dooOB «f the people, and destroy the lost
hope of " the poor in this world's goods."
with tho weight of apolitical depondonco.
Tbbro is d wide spread effort to erase the
distinctive -character of the States, by deny-
ing to them that homo State sovereignty,
never yielded to tho national organization.
It ia but a blind, of pretended patriotism,
tbrough whioh to strike at the people them-
ealvofl. We shall therefore keep on a correct
and direct line, combatting error wherever
found, and while laboring losa^c the nation,
wo shall at the sajne lime labor to savo the
people, that wbon war's alarms and borrora
arc over, we may he able to return to the arts
of peace, with our individual rights secured,
mth tho freedom of conscience, the press,
■and voice, still preserved, with which our-
aeU'Cs anil our children may re-raise the
shuttered stritcturo of tho present, to a
Stiil greater glory and pre-eminence.

We oak in this work no OTtraneouH sup-
port— fii(' patronage of no cliques, combina-
tions nor tbohiroof corrupt politicians i but
the friiO-will offering only, of suob as have
ipitrcnago to give, and patriotism to eon-

itiocarios or from private citizens. Wo de-
sire to print a paper for our subsorihors,
and our country, only ; unarmed by power,
jior tjoduued by tho wages of the corrupt.

■with conlideuue that our frioiids, suhsovi-

By order of Mpj. Gen. Hunter,

Now this baud-bill was nothing but a

blind, for tho^ property was sold at primlf

and some hundred mules were sold or

pretended to be sold, too gentleman of Law -

s, for §22 to 824 per head,

It SlOO each. These things

should be known at Washington, because if

coantenancod there, aa many ol the Ihiov-

iug conlrncts are supposed to have been,

then this war must terminate in ono of ihej'i,

of general highicay robbery, of utter an^

■cb'j and rum to this once groat, prosper-

IB, happy, contented people, ami our days

. a nntioD are numbered. Betwi.tt official

thieves and armed robbers, but little will be

left for the honor of the true and patriotic

soldier, and tho honest lover of bis country

at home.

Wo have labored inoessuully to warn tho
Government against tbeso disorders. Wo
begged for hostilities to bu conducted
the principle.-* of honorable warfare,
r side, that we might, before Iho ivorld,
get all the ndvontagts of a high sonso of
honor and of a well disciplined civilisation;
that when hostilities should coaso, wholh-
success or defeat was our portion, wo
could retire with a nomo and a consoious-
ness worthy of the cause we hud in view.

That with tbo progress of ou» armies,
would order, safety, legal and oonalitulion-
al pcotootion, proceed. That, with the
sight of our flag, protection to oveiy human
being might be proclaimed, and the tlalm
of things under our systom remain un-
ohangod. This would soon have won by
putting to rest the fears of tho timid and
the falsehoods of the designing. It would
have conquered by its cohesive powers and
convinced by its sublimo devotion. Con-
viction is more powerful than compulsion,
as example is more ulo<|uent than prumiaes.
To do a good deed is of God— to pramite a
good deed is of the devil — and that on a very
high mountain."

Our oivil war is not much over eight
ontliB old, and yet wero tho above States
bo ro-ossesaod to-day, their valuation
ould full off billion.i. Ohio alone would
ime down some two hundred millions, for
Ohio has, for many years past, been eitra-
oganlly assessed on bet real estate, espe-
cially when compared with the mode of auoh
ilualions in most other SUtos, Wo have
ood within four hundred millions of the
State of New York. Did our Legislature
believe this when thoy tied ua to tbo tflil of
single interest in the city of New York,
e other day, in their Bank Liquid ntion
ill? If they did thoy committed a great
itrage upon our solvency, when they made
contingent upon the banking interest iu
e '-il'j of New York, alone.
When wo take into consideration tho re-
duced valuation of property, and then the
debt, already so enormous, aud scatter-
ed, that no man is willing to risk bis repu-
tation in making a serious gutss at it, we
ly well shudder at tbo prospects of eight
nine months more of the same downward
progress.

Again, if under tbe possible unfortuitous
rcumstances of tbo future, tho Southern
ates should slip out of all connection with
, and our whole debt and damages full up-
the remaining Northern States, then the
pOdAibility of carrying suoh a load will be
■ concern of the whole people.

Start not, dear Colonel — I am not going lo
inflict a sfrmon upon you — for I am neither
clergyman nor layman- nor yet a public
professor of that religion whioh I beUeve is
Heaven's best gift to man. Nor yet am 1
well versed in those sacred writings which
I believe were inspired by tho great and
good Spirit whioh rules over all. But, tho
politienl papers I read are, of late, filled
with so much stuff reloting to religious mat-
ters, and contain ao many sermoni from pop-
ular Divines, upon what in styled the pres-
ent "crisis "in our history, that lam forced
to think n good deal on theHo subjects, and
tbo above quoted paragraphs ace constantly
pressing upon my mind.

'The quotations I have selected above, nzi
Concerning spirits — not tho nrdtni " critter "
wbiob plays the deuco with men's wits— but
the supernatural— Iha Evil and tho Uivinn.
It is not here necessary to prove tbe eiis
tenco of suob spirits, tbat is too generally
admitted. But the question is as to which
class of tpiriCualiim now predominates on
this continent. This question is tho more
important, hocamo God has said. ■' My spir-
it shall not always strive with man ''- and
tbe fear is that Ho has withdrawn His spirit
from amoog men, and lot loose a legion of
DevUs'

These spirits of which I am speiikiug,
should not be, confounded with r/mgatCicn,
wbiob is a controlling essence of the animal
iu man; and gives greater intluencn to his
brain, iu controlling other men's minds and
bodies. Fow, at this day, can question tho
steuco of animal magnetism — but it bos
oonueotlon with spiritualism, in the light
,m viewing it. True, the groat evil spirit,
' Father of Lies, may, and. no doubt,
IS, use thi4 animal inRueuce in aid of his
purposes, hut it is separate and distinct from
ipirilualisoi. The holy loen who were pio-
loors in the early Methodist Church, were
ill endowed with a wonderful auiouut of
magnetism, whioh enchained their audiences
impressed their miuds — but it was used
good and holy purposes, and did won-
ders in bringing men to consider spiritual
And it is a pity that all christians
do not show to ths world that they/ed what
thoy ;ir<>/'«ii— and thus impress their infiu-
enco more indelibly upon society around

Hut, the sermons and writings of the most
ainont Divines of this our day, admit that
tho present deplorable condition of our
untry. God is inflicting His judgments
ion us ns a nation — and tboy present to us
many great national siua. which they allege
' ivo heon tbo cause of His biding His face
<>m us. nod withdrawing His spirit from
iioug us. None of which, in my limited
idgment, are correct. At least, I think, .
lere is ono greater than all they name. I
tako it for granted, that if God is now in-
fiiotiog punishment upon tho people for Na-
tional eins. His churches and people and
listvrs, are in some way res[H)n»ible for
-and perhaps they may be responsible for
tho prevalence of those sins which sensation
sermons charge upon tho people. But, tbe
evil — the sin, which I helievo to be tho cause
of all our present woes, is entirely different
from any yet mentioned, in I'ulpit or Press
-and has been growing for years. And it
one. if the Gospel is true, of the most
heinous offences against God, that christians
commit. // U the sin of empla-iing

pruachiug of the Gospel, but tho nvil spirit
ills. Hence, tho ovils of intompor»ncn
niultiphed, and spread all over the land.
Church members wcro no longer aeon labor-
»itli their erring brethren, who drank or
tbo liquid Gro- thoy no longer usad

tho drunkard was not lifted from tho gutter,

His Gospel to fffeet ! It orises from nn im-
patience with the slowness of tbe meons ap-
pointed by God, and the substitution of hu-
to promote tho moral rofor-
! Tbo attempt to make men
become moral by law ! To promoto Itmper-
f, for iuatanco, by sooietios outside of
Churoh — thus bringing tbeso worldly
ihluos into competition with the Church,
and robbing God of His glory 1 For, just
' ' 'u that the efforts of temperance

societies increased, those of the Churoh de-
nnd whatever moral effect was vis-
ible this human invention got tho credit for,
id by going iuto these outside organiza-
ms, members of tho churches virtually
confessed tho ioeffioienoy of God's Churon
to acoouiplish tho end fur which it was or-
dained ' The Church is described by inspi-
ration OS a city sot upon s hill, who:to light
spread to allarouud. But, proacbors and
embers put out the lights in tho Churoh,
id went after tho i^nui faluus lights bob-
ng about in tho swumps below, oarriod by
fidtda and sooffers at religion '
But, this insult to God's spirit, and the
slight to institutions of His ordination, did
itop there. Tbo Churches having band-
ror the cure of intemperance to outaide
organizations, aud its clergy ceased to do-
nouuco tbo evil from tho pulpit, and tbe
members ceasing to use their practical and
personal efforts, as such, of course the evil
increased so alarmingly that ihe loic was in-
voked to stay it '. And this drew politicians
and temperance reformers into concert of
action — and of course theclorgf lent thoir
aid to procure tho enactment ol the neces-
sary laws— until tho Churoh was almost con-
verted into apolitical machine. Church and
Stotu woro working together, hut not in God'e
appointed way. Laws woro invented to dO'
fine rights of persons and things, and to
prolent them — not to enforoe moral elhies —
but to protect men in the liberty of cun-
scienco and rights of person and proporty.
Hence, these laws against a mnral tcil have
falldii into disuse, and tbo ovil of intemper-
ance increases. But, tho churches have nut
yet waked up to their true position and real
duties in tho premises. Therefore, tbolr
salt has lost its savor- tbe Divinospirit does
not accompany, in its wonted power

Freedom of speech and freedom of tho

luntry. since long before tho revolution.
Conducted bonostly. Iho press is the great
palladium of liberty — conducted corruptly,
the besom of deatruction and the ven-
geance of fury. Its ability for good or evil
beyond calculation. 'To bo useful, It
jst l>c independent. It should speak out
. views and honest convictions, in tones of
itramollcd fearlessness. When it sees
danger approaching, mhetber insidiously,
by sapping and undermining the foundation
ir constitutional and legal rights, in
the specious garb of friendship, professing

the political watch tower, should warn us
speedily of the danger, and, if possible,
point out the remody.

Unhappily for us, unhappily for Amorico,
unhappily for llborly overywbore — tho proas

There is but one remedy. It is simple
and easily applied. Toko away (he hopo of
office. Let tho press depend on its own
honest oiertions lor support liko tho rest of
mankind. If thoy cannot live honesUy, Ut
Ihcm i^ic. Thcr.) are enough other employ-
ments, by which to gel a living. Men are
not compelled to print falsehoods to gel a
support. There is tho plow, ibo loom and
tho anvil, either or all, at ibeir choice.

Tho number of editors, ay compared with
tbe whole popubtion, does not probably
eicecd one in ten thousand, and of the reign-
ing party, one in tietnly Ihouiand, yet they
monopolize a very largo share !of the best
offices in tho gift of the President. It would
probably be safe to say that one half, if not
more, of the abolition editors are provided
with offices ranging from foreign ministers
down to deputy poat-mastors. The attaob-
i;es of the Mew YoTk Tribune office alone
farnish several inonmbents. Even Mr,
<jT«el0T bimsetf, had no objeetion to the
LInitad States Senatorship. It is difficult
li' see any reason why tbe editorial corps
should enjoy ti larger percentage of office
than farmers and mecbouicL As a body,
ihey have shown themselves veual and cor-
rupt. They aro not naturally bo. It is tho
Qccursed stlmolus of office— the indirect
bribery of preaidenlial patronage, that pro-
dacea this wholesale mischief. Take away
that, let them rely on tbeir own eiortions
for a livcliboud, and they will roform Ihem-
aelvea from tho necesaity of the case. Tako

The Gipaiea are a flttange and peeuli
rsoo. Thoy tiro presumed to have sprui
from a people beloceing to Egjpt,^

ig t<

if J oa cut off tho
initial letter E from ■' Egpyt," you have the
" gyp " which tho common tongue, in En-
glSb. has elongated into gyps, gypsfs, and
i^peiti. Whether their onceators ever be-
heW EgTpt or not, the Gypsy race is vyry
maoh the aomo all over the irorld ; and if
yoo see tho creatures vogBbondizing
England, prowling about more boldly
Spnin, and shunned us desperadoes in G
many, you still recogniie their comm
identity. Wo have often studied thorn in
all those countries. We have read hooka
about without number. We have listened
to wonderous stories of thoir ekiU and beau-
ty and chivalry, jo?t as we have listened to
Bimilar stories about tho American Indians ;
bat, [alas I let us frankly confess that ive
have always found such narratives, both
nbont Indians and Gypsies, pure fragments
of tho imagination.

Honestly spooking, the Gipsies are a
dir^, thieving, oruei, unromantic collection
of naman beings. Wo have never seen a
handsome Gipsy yet. Wo do not believe
there is suob a pbenomeooD, and wo onsid-
er all accounts to that effect a humbug, —
They are, easBnlially. a disreputable and
dangerous class. They are always perfidi-
ous. Thoy are commonly disgusting, see
thorn in what phase of their nomadic lilo you
may. They never inspired in as, even in
OUT most charitable moments, any feeling
bnt one of pity and Contempt. They over
seemed to us a Eomething between the
American Indian and the Eastern Sepoy,
Tvith all tho cunning of the one and the
malignity ot the other ; and we have hearti.
ly laughed at those who, depending upon
hooks for their information, have linked
with the idea of a Gipsy so much that
kindly and effectionatc, so much that
chivalric nod exalted.

The "Horse Hair."

in Professor Agasslz'a interesting paper
on Mtlkidi of ^tudj in Natural Hhtory,
(the secontl scrioa,) in the February num-
ber, wo find this anecdote of nn animal
known to almost all our country boys :

A e«-'n'lemaii from Detroit had the kind-
ness to send me one of those lone thread
liko worms (Gordius) found often lu bookr
and oalled Horse Hairs by the common pec
pie. When 1 first received it, it was coiled
up in a close roll at the bottom of the bottle,
fiiied with fresh wnler, that containe-d it,
and looked more like a little tangle of blaok
sewing silk than anything else. Wish!
to unwind it, that I might examine its i
titc length, ] placed it in a large china
basin 6lled with water, and proceoaed yury
gently lo disentangle its coils, when I per-
ceived that the animal had twisted iUolf
ronnd a bundle of \\i eggs, holding
fpst in close embrace. In the process of
the unwinding, the eggs dropped away and
boated to a little distance. HiLving tiDiilly
stretched it out lo its full length, perhaps
l^ftlf a yard, I eat watching to see if thii
Itngutnr being that looked Hkc a long bla^k
thrCJtdin the water would give uuy signs pf
life. Almost immetliutcly It movci) loiv.irdil
the bundle o£:e'e|ft Mid. hai

tw white majfs. p'lissiug one end ui its budy
through it, uud then rnturning to make an-
other atilcb, as it wore, till the eggs narp nt
loBt* completely eiitongletl ngain in an In^

almost impossible that this cure of offspring
could bo t^f result of any in^tiucc of offec-
tiou.in a crcaui(0. oFiio low an orgi(ui2atjiui,
and I again separated it Iroui theeggs, iitd

youkno Jane and me was married at your

I cum to this city jist befoar
the inogerashon of the Guverner. The col-
ored barbers of tbo city bavn grate influence
with the members of the legisloler and tha
concluded to do sometbin for me. Upon
was fuund that thoir was no
delegate from the Republic of Hayti, and
accordingly the barbers and other colored
people prevaled on the legislater lo elect
me a delegate from that patriotic republic.
For this fever I am under special obliga-
tho femail wimen porshen of the
colored citizens ; they have more influence
ith the majority of the members of the
le^islatcrner the mail men has. I must also
soy that I am under lasten obbgashons t
the celebrated old Flai Break, Mr. Millei
of Greene county ; to the world renowned
" 'entiiloquist, Mr. Crum, ofAshtabulo;
r, Hilta, of Medina, who knoes moor nor
my one man ot to kno, and to Mr. Myers,

sbant bo published in the papers
unless the editors steel the proceedens . '
publish them for nothen. We have also
cidcd that the laws sbant be published for
the peepel to reed. It is nun of the peepel'
biziness what laws wo pass, and by keepe:
knowledge of 'em from the peepel tha
ill violate 'em without knoin it, and then
the lawyers will have somelhen lo do. Then
if the peepel don't kno what lawtj
they won't bo eternally growlin about bad
wabein passed. We have been rctrenchen
id refurmen sum and by the timr
in with it we expect lo save the Stat4
pout two dollars and thirty-aeven cents a
year in sum departments of the public ser-
■ \, though we nave lo inoreaao the espenses
sum other things. We have a consider-
able increase of messengers, carriers, clerks,
and spittoon cleaners, 90 that the cipensos
ov the legislative department of the govern-
ment Iwiil be conaiuerably increased, but
that's the way tha hav it in Engli
Tuverncr may put us u

I don't kno what we will be able to do for
our colored bruthors nod sisters tbis winter
but we will do sumtben considerable fo:
them. Tha huv lots ov tru freniis hear.

to see them closed.

So with this nation; tho gateway to peace
and liberty was open, but alt were asleep.
When it was first onnounoed that all who
slept upon their post were to be shot, tho
speaker trembled for the country; he

The present LegisUture throw these

out of the public Treiiiury, and of course
they iiro a. very iriokod, worthless set. But

therefore why tUey are not as gjoii as those
who immediately wont before them.

Thoy are now, we are informed, way-laid

want to save tbo State by inoraosing the

it amounts (o that, to ten per cent! These

them, especially tho debtor class, and yield

means to aid the peoplii in getting in their
debt, thoy will be ■■ as great a body of moo "
us ever sat in council — always o.'icepling
their noble predecessors, who cauaot be es-
ccUcd.

Wo do not believe this Legislature will
do any sucli tbiog. Some of them, we be-
lieve, are heartily sick of their Bank sus-
pension vote, releasing the Banks from their
legal liabilities and making mere Broker's
offices of them, and will not ho likely to add

From Ulnhi

The people of Utah Territory bavo hod
convealion io form a Constitution wbioh
will soon bn presented to Congress for the
admission of Utah as a State.

They are following tho Kansas preced
ent of proceeding at onco to form a State
government, end if refused admission, tho
HepoblicanB will bo placed in o most awk-
ward position with tho .Kansas rebellion be-
fore them, and in dofoose of which tboy in-
augurated the present war. Of that we
have no doubt ; others may think an they
pleaao ; but ao satisfied were we that a civil
national war was approaching, fed by tho
Kansas imbroglio, that every not wo per-
formed from the time we entered that Terri-
tory until wo left it, was directed with an
eyo single to tho provention of tbo very
sad state of things now eiiating.

We forgot all else, and wore ready for
any individual sacrifice, of place, profit,
honors, pleasures or comfort, to aceomplish

oDo groat absorbing end — tho peace
unity of these States and this greot
people. Our conduct— our language — our
mossages — our speeches, wore al! gibberish
to a great many people, both in Kansas and
o\jtofit. We were maligned, first by one

on and then by the other, but with a
steady, undoviatlng hand kept hut the one

t object in view, the peace and good of

sas aud of oar whole country. In a
speech we made at Junction City, just be-
fore tho Presidential election, wo went over
tbo whole grounds of our difficulties, aud as

fpoke on thiiunanimou.s invitation of tho
people, without regard to party, wo went
fully and fairly into tho whole subject,
dealing with each party and each branch
of tbo brewing troubles present and ptos-
pectivc. Wo apoko of the probable, more
probable, olection of Mr. Liscolb,

gratulate us; and on citondiug hia baud,
pledged the Administration of Mr. Lihcolk,
<e eleotion ho desired, that it would
purauQ the course wo indicated — and we, in
turn, said: -Then, Captain, I will give
s adminialrntion all tbo aid in mj- power,

Other counsels, however, prevailed, and
the Cspt. Lvos of that evening now lies
sleeping iu bis grave, the victim of a mis-
taken policy — and as gallant, ' bravo and
true a aoldior as ever livnd. Let his faults,
if he bad any, sleep with him. He had
many virtues, with whiah we became fasci-
d, and visited bim several times at the
Fort. He was bold and out-spoken, honest
and free from ohicanory. Sumo thought
too severe in his discipline, and others,
>urae, did not approve of his political
predilections; but he was always ai>entle
man, and devoted to his country's best io-
terest, as bo understood it.

This may appeor like digrossion, but if

parenthclical. it will, ns such, be excused.

What wo were about to call attention to. is

To NamucI Forrcr. Eiq.-No. I.

Dear Sir;— Permit an old oilizca
Ohio, like yourself, to address you in 1
manner the most appropriate for the 001
aiou. I have known you personally for mi
than a i]uarlet of a century, and havo p
token of tho popular idea, that you were
upright public servant, and on estimable
private citizen, and let me assure you thi
I was mortified on learning that you woi
COQcemed, directly or indirectly, with tho
transfer of tho Canals of. Ohio, from
State to a prii>alo company for the spa(
ten yoara, commencing with tbo year 18G1.

I am the moro deeply ohagrinod on le
ing this, from the fact that there are rai
of foul play, on the part of tboso to w
the canals havo been entrusted for the last
few yoars, as welt as corrupt influences
to convince tho Legislature, in session
year ago, to secure tbo passage of the law
authoriziag said lease.

That you should havo boon concerned in
any way with the corrupt combination allu-
ded to, pains me more than you will willing-
ly concede, if you have, in truth, stepped
from the path of virtue in your transactions
with tbo State authorities.

I am pained, because I am one who be-
lieves that our present lamentable national
troubles have grown as much, or more, out
of tho corruption of offico-holdors and leg-
islative bodies, Stote and National, than from
any other cause. Had our people not been
corrupted by ambitious men. who sought

Sublio places for plunder instead ol the pub-
o good, the other evils would have been
checked in duo season and our fearful con-
dition as a great nation and people been
avoided by timely warobgs. That you
should have been caught up in this whirl-
pool of strife and public dolincjuency is 01-
traordinary indeed, and I hope you may bo
able to e.tplflin this dereliction from {what
I believe to be) the true test of a faithful
citizen.

You were one of the early pioneers of
ir Cnnal svetem. You were, from your
devotion to that great public movement, be-
lieved al the time so important to our Stote
interests, early entrusted with ita manogo-
mont and progress. You were at an early
time, also ono of " the Boord of Canal Com-
misBionors." associated with such men as
Benjamin Tappan, John Johnson, Alfred
Kelly and Leander Ransom. Tho three
first have departed this life and escaped in
duo time the sad scenes of tho present hour.
Mr, Ransom, is. I am told, on tho shores of
the pacific, and you alone loft, of these your
.peers, amongst us. To you, therefore,
snould have looked to guard with a jeal-
eyo. and a steady judgment, that which
you had assisted to build up. at ao great a
ifiec of money and credit to tho people
ur Slate. A people who bad so long
admired, trusted and confided in you.

These Canals, partly tbo creation of your

vn genius, tho object of your and our long

aolicitudci cost the tax-payers of Ohio an

outlay of fifteen million, and oveK, capital,

borrowed in the Eastern market i the taies

pay the interest on which, tho loBSoa and

ler eipeuses, would ot this time amount

the enormous sum of thirty or forty mil-

iu know sir, tho trouble and care It ro-
<|uired in the £astorn market to seouro by
loans the sums necessary to complete these
lines of Canals, and you know too, sir, that
this monoy has noveryot been paid, and the
interest is loft q burden of yearly tosation
of over eight hundred thousand dollars.

These things you aro certainly wollawuro,
aro as I stale them, and you aro probably
not ignornnt of the fact, that Ihore is it
prospect not so remote ns some might wish
to believe, that the people of Ohio will bo
unable, from eausos now too apparent, but
which I will not hero enumerate, to meet
thoBO taios, and Ohio for tho first tlmo, will
be found in default in paying her eomi>
annual interest, as she was n year ago in
tiiking caro of n largo amount of Bonds,
whioh in fact nnd in good faith then bccamo
duo. The amount, if I mistuko not, being
between two and three millions of dollars.

In my ncit article, air, I will bring some
of these coneideralions iu eloaer review with
iihat I understand to be your present posi-
liou, thcia may be agreeable to you or satis-
faotory to the Slulc creditors.

The ttrvat Quesiioii or Retrench-

Inasmuch as the necessity now oiists for
a reduction of some of tho heavy burdens of
taxation in our State, all ure interested inn
rigid syatom of retreuohnient ; aud one
among the many objeclf, may bo considered
the Operations of our common school syBtcm.
In order to perfect and carry out tbo pres-
ent organization, through tho numerous
Boards of ;EducUitiDU, bulb township and
village, a large amount of money is most
wastofully and profli^toly expended lo'tho
eractlonof school houses, furnishing them
in most gorgeous style, nnd generally in
tho prnployment ol tcaohora (through fii-
itoiam or otherwise) wholly unqualified
to discharge the duties devolved upon them
tending rather to retard than advance tho
.use of education, until it may now be
id (with perhaps some few excoplions,)
jrkcd itself into a kind of money making
syatom, with too many tenohcrs, wholly im-

peding nod obstrnoting the designs of
oummon school systom in tbo proper tr
ing, either physically or m.irnlly. of tho
rising generation.

Now Iho history nnd slatistics of tbo
State in her public Improvements already
show that very little progress was made ij
opening up tho i-esourcoa of her wealth niti
much profit so long as she endeavored to
control those improvcmtnii us a State ex
pendituro and finally nbundoned the sys
tem, and left all future improiements open
to individual entorprise, in coasequoncu of
whioh shn thon began lo grow rapidly,, and
thus has continued lo prosper until the
present time; and so a similor Bystem i
gard to the advancement of edueatio

My colleague began with tho cry that gcuenili
are nothing ; thai ii' any geceiiil wna in competent,
to taiio hint away. Ue read from the Ricnmond
Dispatch to ehow the errora our general had com-',
mittcd. Tho nrticia read was ao full of slander
and fnljebood that ho himself corceolcd a part of
it. Ua charged tho Cammander-iu-Chiof tvilb

his plaa— OB he claimed to kaoiv it— lo attact ibe

this nae uuivise because it was impoHiblv. He
did not approve of the general's "nice and pre-
cise ndjuslmenl of military alTaira" before tbo
Army moved. Ho wanted Ibe Anny to oicr-
wtiiilm the enemy wilboutwaitiogfor orders from'
wnibingtoa city. He then undertook, by a (tatc-,
meat ol facts as to the aOairs at Romney, in Mia.
■oari, and Kentneky, to depreciate tha character
oi that Commander-in-Chief. He demanded that
tho Army chould move at all hazarits. unrestrained'
by a aiogle hand. Ue tbnugbt he faw m the ac-
cet^ion ol Mr. tjlanlun a streak of aunltuht, for
be (Mr. Slanlou) wm like brace Beu ^Vade, of

tbey^ wound their toils around tbo moit sacred ofi

aoolyaia of my colleague's speech. , ^X.

On the very ete, sir. of the most importnat'
moverncnlr), and whco, loo, our Army in one see-'
tiob hni already give a earnest in carrying out
successfully one part of General McOlcllan'a
■oheuie, wo hare ikia mott inoppartuao display ol'
impatience agaioKt Geuernl McClellan. I would,
rather ha?o beard it from odv other Iban an Ohio'
toember. Obio gato McClellon his first eomuiii-
sion. I remember to bare eeen him when ho.
came with alacrity to her capital to accept this
morli of oai Governor's tmat. How well ho ru-
pnld the conSdence, Wealern Virginia can an.
swer; and if all his plans then) bad been carried
ont by gaburdinntes with a vi^ur equal to their'
wisdom, we would hid less trouble and moro glo-
ry in that campaign.

As Uj tbe advent ol the nan Sccretaiy of War.'
Mr. Stnutoa, whom my colleague haila as a "streak
of light "io Ihogloom. J do not bolievo that he
wilt delight in such hailing, coupled with sucb
roiling at Ms friend Ibe General, It is too much
like tie "all hail!" of tho tvitcboi to Macbeth.
[Laughter.] There lurka a siniater object in tbe
confratutation. It n-as iutendedai a depreciation
of McClellan ; os if tho errors and incoiupotcncy
ol the into Secretary uf War ought to bo shared
by the Geaeral, I, air, m much and more sin

t approved

and

iah that my colleague would cultivato aomo
faith in General McClellaa. He it a minisler of
the Gospel, and ia full ol foitb in tho aalrntion of
all men. I glory ia according to him the rullest
"sonlliberty" in religion. Hi* creed includes
the salvation of all — embracing in Ita eompreben-
site faith Jeff Davis, Jeff Thompson, Wigtall, and
all that crowd of conspicuous sinners. [Laugb-
' ir.] He Oelievea Ibat Zollicoffer is now in glory ;
0 can even see Huuipbroy Manball enterinc, na
ly colleague from Cleveland oneo said of John

not olereisen little faitb,Joat tbu size of a
itard seed, in Ibo prescience, akill, nnd sagac-
ity of our accomplished young general,

0 ! if there ia one thing moro beautiful than
another, it it that trust which wo repose in an-
other, in dark huurs of trial nod death. It is
aaid tbat reason was tho first born, but faith iu-
berita tbo blessing. Reason is apt to bo fallible,
•bort-sighted, eager, impetuous, and impatient of
contradiction ; ivhilo failh ia gentle and docito,
CTcr ready lo listen to tbo Toice, by wblch alone
truth and wisdom can eflectoally reach her, God
ited two ligbta — tho greater light to rule
tbe busy day — reason; the Jesser, to rule tiia
coalenplntive night— failh; but faith shlaea only
so lon^ as she reOecte aometbing of the illumina-
tjon ot tbe brighter orb. Where a man has no
faith ho bag no light of toasDB.

There are some things in which a man muat
exercise his trust. Tbo Aniutican people, unlike

the Army in Mi9aoun,hu lound mountainaol difii-
cuity to overcome — aa Boell did in Kontoeky, at

nt of tho troops. GcneTDlHalleck found,
I, a fine paper organization. He baa la-
bored with a stntcamnn's foresight, a publicist's
learning, and a soldier's tkill to bring order out of
liaoa. He fbund troopa without coacentralion,
Qd required arma, traoaportation, nnd aupplies,
bich General McClellan bas ttntined every

,.^ , my colleBBue makea the speeifie charge

that ho is ioformed, on aulbority which bo is not
permitted lo question— and I suppose lo quote —
tbat aome lea ot fiReen tbonsaod confederato
troops, near Romney, were in tho power of our
army of forty Ihouaaod, aad that tbu capture so
easy waa not made, because an order cama from
boadquarters bore not to advnoco.' Thia is a
charge aa sweeping as it is irrcsponsihle aod
groundless, I do not core who is his authority, I
question it here, and now. My colleague readi
certain telegraphs which have stroBgirly come in,i
to bis possession, lo ehow that Lander nod Kelly
dispatched that tbey could take tho rebels, and all
'anted noB au order; ood preato 1 hero
Wu have hod a good many auch luc-
inticipalion. I believe we bsd ono at
Piketon. It is said that General Lander telo-
g raphe d and General Kelly sent a messenger to
apprize each other of tho absolute certainty of
success. Gener«I Lander I admire for biscaulJoa
nnd intrepidity ; but 1 will stale tbefacta to nbicb
1 suppose my colleague refers. I sloto them cor-
rectly. QcD. Lander went to relieve Gen, Kelly
at Homney— Kelly being iick. He reacbedHan-
cock on the Mb of January. Ho found the eoo-
my, under Gen. Jackson, on tbe other tide of the
liver, io cooaiderablo alrength— lav 6lt«ea ot sii-
leea tbuueanJ. Tbe enemy bad driven a few of
onr troopa ncrosa the river. When General Lan-
der reached bia po*l, Ibo enemy were thelbng, or
ubuiit to nbell. llnncock. Geoeral Jnckeon aimi-

tho I'olomno, in the foee of an enemy, and wili
means iif retreat, was almost insanity, HcdiJ

lat aprudcot general, having his own plans njn.
tured, ought to have done; and here I diatiBclli

, that General Bankt wrote n letter, in whici
from bis stand-point, be entirely commended it.-
acSoo of General McClellan. And now. and [jir,
we hare our general arraigned by my , •■n.-nai.'-

can lee, my collcOgUD's military oiporicQce dw
not reach ao far na to tell, by practice, the r^i-

I have replied to the^o complainta in detail.—
Now for these general coinplaiDla of no mini,
moor, to glibly rehearsed by tbe genllefnan.

It ia complained that McClellan baa uot moved
tbat nothing boa been done, and that notbing.i
about to be done; that ho doea nnt let cuncm
people know what ho is about. If ho is doii-
notking, ai they allege, he bail nothma to divuLc'i

thing, tbo very way lo ondo it ii to lottbem koov,
it, for tbey are aa leaky as tbe present wcatbf;

But has ho dono nothing I I *ay that he bgi

not only Iryiug, but anxious to bring about.
Gentlemen, wo must memorialize our Leg-
islature to pass stringent laws, not only lo
preveut any further ininugratiou of negroes
into our State, but, if possible, Co remore
out of our State those already amon^ us, if

Fullow-citiMns, our country has been
plunged into a civil war, between the North
and the South. And as wo have aHsemhIed
here as American freemen, to take into oon-
sideration the domoslio affairs of our State,
l)ut just and proper that we should in-
■e inio the causes that have brought this
idful calamity upon us; and who have
been the first trnilors, either theoreticolly or
practically, in the unhappy struggle of our
country; and who first taught the dootrino
of secession, eitherNorthorSouth. With-
document or data to refer to, I bo-
)ut 18'tt, whun the Louisiana Ter-
ritory was purchased of France, tho Mas-
sachusetts Lecislature passed a resolution
declaring it to be a sufficient cause for the
dissolution of the Union. And when Lou-
in was admitted as a Slato into the Un-
they passed n similar resolution, only
i> desperate than before; and this ap-
pears to have been the sentiment of a great
part of New England, and had New York
at that time seconded their treochery, it is
than likely that the Union would haro
dissolved then. In I8I4 assembled the
first Convention in North America for the
purpose of dissolving tho Union; and ns it
■ - ened at Hartford, Connecticut, ooo of
itrongholds of Itopuplicaniam, we liavo
only to duppose that their motives were
iry patriotic and constilulional I • When
eina was admitted into the Union. Now
England, or a large portion of it, was in fa-
of the same patriotio move. Never, I
eve, till 1833. did secession find any
countenance in the southern Stales, and
then only in South Corolina; no other
southern State even sympathizing with her.
I havo endeavored lo show that this
infernal doctrine of secession first, and for
long time, had its advocates in tho North
only. And, gentlemen, should I quote one-
half the secession resolutions, passed at the
different abolition conventions, held from
time to lime in the Northern States, uod
particularly in Now England, I should only
trespass on your palienco.

Fellow-cilizenB, thero has beoo another
great secession lever wielded in tbe North,
which I would fain overlook, did justioe to
of truth andourconimon country
I mean the clergy of several of the
most popular denominations. I heliovo
somewhere about tbo year 1840. tho Slotho-
dist Church North, secedod from the Church
South. Tbe next thing, they got into law
about the property of the Church, and ofier
several years' litigation, the Souli held the
property, by a decree. I believe, from tho
Supreme Court of tho United Slates. Tho
wholo thing, however, originated about ne-
groes, and intermeddling wilb the institu-
tions of tho South. Since then, till the
present, have n largo portiou of tho north-
" 1 Molhodiit clergy boon preaching their
alition doctrines from tho pulpit, and have
arrayed their people against thoir Bouth-
) brethren, that very f«w of them dare to
bo Democrals, or advocate any other con-
Mcrvativo clement, Ihrouch fear of beiug
menaced by thoir preachers, and called
" hard eases." Tho United Brothron, and
some other kindred sects, nro equally cul-
pable in aiding this uuhoUowod seceEsion
moveoionl, by eiciting their people against
tile South, and bringing upon our once hap-
py, but now distracted country, the prcbent

Only Inst winter tho Ot\io Stale Journal,
the organ of tho Republican party in Ohi .
published iu Columbus, spoko thus about
the Union, as near as loan now quote; —
"The Union between the North and tho
South is an unnatural one — it has proved n
foiture, and nobody but an old dotard would
weep over its downfall," i^n. Voa, gentle-

27

men. this has been the languogo of nearly
all tho leaJers of the Republican party.
Tom Corwin. who is now Minister to Sle
i-.'y. wos in tho United Stotea Senate during
tho time of tho Mexican wnr. did, on thi
Qoor of the Senate, puhtioly denounce thi
American army in Alusiou aaaset of thiorei.
and cut throats, and all that supported the
war oguinst Mexico. His treasonable speech
was translated into the Mexican language
nnd published throughout that country, thus
giving aid and comfort to our enemies ; and
Corwin was, consequently, guilty of trea-
son, occording to the Constitution. Tho old
traitor bos been politically dead, until late-
ly the Republicans elcoted bim to Congres:
and then President Lincoln appointed hii
to bis present posilieii, which has once moi
resurrected him from that political death i
which he should have ever remained. So,
gentlemen, you see what kind of material
composes tbe leaders of the so called Re-
publican party.

But again — another cause of our pre.'cnl
difficulties was old John Brown's raid into
Virginia, which was planned and carried in-
to execution by the northern aboliliooists;
and when be and his littlo banditti were
brought to public justice on the scaffold, the
hells were tolled in many of the towns in
northern Ohio, and particularly in Now Eng-
land, aa a token of respect and profound
grief for traitors and murderers- And now,
after all their disunion, BectionnI sentiments,
thoj aro scroeohing Union and Constitution
and tbe observance of tho laws, just to do-
ceire and mako victims of tho honest but
unthinking portion of tbo Democratic par-
ty ; and liko tho thief, fleeing from his pur-

" while yet tbo stolen goods or money

his person, crying " stop thief!" " stop
thief!" just to make them think it It is some
othor man. Well, as I always loved the
and tho Constitution, it is disgusting
Lhd ovory true Union man to hear so
much hypocritical screeching from just suoh
trash as tbe editor of the Ohio Slalt Jour-
nal of lost winter : " Nobody hot old do-
tards would weep over ita downfall," ikc.
Tbe next thing that will engage our atten-
)n is the Fugitive Slave Law, passed by
Cdngreas in 1850, which was only to carry
out the plain words of Article IV, Section
4th, of the (Constitution, which reads as fol-
lows: "No person held to service or labor
State, under the laws thereof, esca-
ping into another, shall, in consequence of
' ir regulation therein, ho discharged
I service or labor, but shall he de-
livered up on claim of the party to whom
such service or labor may bo diie."

Immediately after foltowad the so called
personal liberty bills, passed by thirteen, I
lolieve, ot the Nothem States, sotting aside
not only tbe plain words of tho Constitution,
but the law of Congress also. Notwith-
itandiog all tbe different legislators were
worno to support tho Constitution and laws
of Con"resa, they passed laws of their own
sotting both at defiance. Consequently they
weru traitors and rebels to the Constitution
and the laws of the government.

And now, gentlemen, if such legislative
idles a.s these just menlioned were loyal to
the Constitution, so is Jeff Davifi and every
other southern traitor. I don'{ speak this
at all lo Justify tho eouthern traitors; but
just to toll you what kind of Union men
many of our northern legislators were, and
many of whom are now the loudest Union
acreechers of the present day, and are ready
lo denounce as secessionists all honest dem-
ocrats and cunservativo men who will nut
endorse all their traitorous proceedings, and
say they are not to blame in anything, and
lay all tbo blame on tho South.

But again— Congress, at its last winter's
salon, or nearly all tbe Republican ele-
Bnt, did oil they could do to prevent a
mpromiee ; and when the Crittenden com-
promise was got up, which was a very good
one, they voted against it almost to a man.
And notwithstanding Jefferson Davis said,
pass that ond I am satisfied \ go said Mr.
Toombs, of Georgia ; and Mr. Douglas
said, ■• Gentlemen, if you will not support
tbe Crittenden Compromise, do loll us what
you will do." But that they would not do,
and when the vote was taken tho Demo
orals voted for it to a man and many of tho
Southern members did tho same. But a
tion of the South eaid, let the North pass
it if they want it ; if wo pass it the North
ill say tbe south has passed it and we
on't stand to it. Thus it is plain to be
en that tbo Republicans in Congress were
lund lu have no compromise, but let the
country be plunged into war, although thero
Is uo doubt all the Southern members would
bavo stood, except South Carolina, where
they have been always traitors since l&3d,
and she could have been easily subdued, u:
she could not havu done anything ot rebel
lion.

Our ntleution will be iiejct called to the
unconstitutional acts of the President, since
his inauguration on tho fourth of March
last, as bo is the only President that baa
over violated the Constitution. His first
violation was by suspending the writ of ha-
les corput which Congress alono has the
right to do, he next violated it by Increasing
the regular army and navy by enlisting
diera tor three years, when the ConsI
tion is plain, Ibnt Congress shall have the
power to declare war, to raise and support
armies, and provide and auppport a navy,
for tho President has uo more power to i '

war on the public press and tho right of
speech, as oven Congress has no power to
suppress either. Sea Article Igt of tbe
amended Constitution : ■' Congress shall
mako no law respecting tbe ostabljsbmeni
of religion or prohibiting the frco oxeroi$<
thereof or ubriaging tho freedom of speech
or of the press."

And now, gentlemen, what has been the
policy of the present Administration ; in
many ports of the country — in Maryland,
Missouri, Virginia, Kentucky, and other
places. Any man who dared to say one
word against the present Administration at
Washington, or oven that any porlion of
the North had done wrong in ony thing, let
him bo ever so loyal, ho would bo Bel;tod
and dragged to Fort Lafayette or Worren,
and in many cases did not know for what,
or even who, bis accusers were, and, thero
imprisonedformonlhs, without tho benefit
of trial by Jury, when tho Constitution pro-
vides, Ihatall our citizens, when imprisoned,
which shall not be without good ground of
auspioioo, for a speedy and impartial trial

by Jury, which has been entirely doniod
them. And oven women at wtill as men.
have been imprisoned In Washington City
and Baltimore for months, just on tho bare
acousation of sympathizing with tha rebels.
And here let me say, that tho Kingdom of
Naples, nor any other despotism in Europe
bos ever sieroised any greater tyranny
than the Washington Qovemment, and their
allioi elsewhere.

Tho attempt now made tiy the President
and a Republican Coogrets, to confiscate tbo
slaves nnd other private property of th»
South, is just OS unconstitutional as his olbei
acts which I have already alluded lu. Even
Great Britain, in tho war of the Revolution,
against our Rebel fathers, never oven at-
tempted to confiscate either slaves or other
property belonging to tbe Colonists. And
every suoh attempt has only strengthened
the Secession nrm by uniting them togethf r
more every day. Consequently the policy
of tho Government at Washington, has only
brought contempt on our nation at large.

We shall now give the oath tbat tho Pres-
ident has to take : "I do solemnly swear
that I will faithfully executo tho office of
President of tbe United States, ond will, to
the best of my ability preserve, protect nnd
defend the Constitntion of tho United States
of America." And as he said in his inaug-
ural address; "I am awom ns hard as I
can bo to aupport the Constitution," and
yet violated it almost immediately. I will
not say he is perjured ; but leave oU to tbink
for IhomsolveH, Even John Sherman, ono
of his strongest friends, said, when the vote
was taken lost Juno to indorse all his acts,
'■ I cannot vote in my place, sworn as I am.
to support tho Constitution, to indorse all
his acts, as the suspension of the Habeas
Corpus 00 1, and the incren.sing of the regular
army, belong only to Congress." &o.

riBit to the proat wall of China. ' Tho fol-
lowing aro extracts :

Accompanied by Mr. Diult, an eicotleot
Chinese (cholar, and attached as interpreter
to tho commiMorint, I left Tien-Uin on tho
Idlh of Mnroh, and nfter a three days' ride
through OS uninteresting a country as can
well be (onceived, cameln sight of tho fine
solid wall which inclosei tie strnRKline
mass of ruin, dirt, and decay, called Pekin.

grinding oppression ond long sofferiog dead-
ened the heart of the Chinese peasant to all
Benso of injury! Or has he, after aU. a
Christian feehng of forgiveuess towards his
enemies, for which no orthordoi ohurohmoo
would give the Pagan credit ? I cannot ei-
plmii II, but I own to something lik.?a sense
of shame having come orer mo as we two
solitary, unarmed strangers passed throueh
crowds of men. women and ohildren. stand-
ing by the charred ruins of tbelr homo-
steads, and among their shattered household
god^. without being aiet by a single anj-rr
look or gesture-nay, more, always receiv-
ing a, ready and friendly reply to every
question. Perhaps they felt grateful thot
we had, at any rnto, spared their lives, whioh
IS more than they con eipeot from their
countrymen, therebels, when they pay them

Some of the villages olong our road were
mere heaps of rubbish; others retained
more or Irss the semblance of human hobi-
tntioos. In tbo larger ones, such as Ho-si-
woo, whioh, it mayte ramemberod, was for
some timo in occupation of our troops, Iho
lateenomy-a insonptions oa tho doors and
wolls seem lo be piously preserved as ogreo-
able relics, and such familiar garrison words
as "officers' quarters," "cantoon." "Fane's
horse," "commissariat." "general hospital,"
ico., meet ono at every turn ; though one
cannot but remark with regret that tbo
buildings which appear to tiavo afforded
shelter to the invaders are sadly devoid of
iverythinc in the shape of woodwork, whioh
ras probaljly used as occasion required for
cooking dinners and boiling water. A eel-
ibraled and imposing pawnbroker's shop,
ihich was " looted " Tiere has not yet ro-
iovered itsolf. But let it bo borne in mind
that in piUaeo, as in wanton destruotion,

ing of Yuen-mine-yuen and the Llama
temple, tho sacred proceeds of which ore
this day openly oflered for sale at more or
sa eihorbitant prices in the shops of Tien-

At Ho-si-woo wo met a French mission-
ary bishop oa his way to Europe, after bav-
'ng passed twenty-tive years in China. He
as dressed in the native costume, oven to
the pigtail, and appeared to be treated with
great reverence by the unbelieving orowd
who flocked ia lo see iho " mandarin priest"
The self-devotion, the zeal, and as a very
:eneral rule, the pore and simple lives lad
J the French miesionaries in China, {and
their number throughout the empire and tho
kingdom of Siam exceeds 1,500,) are not
"thelreffectupon the people, although
lot displayed by wholesale and Indis-
criminate conversion to Christianity.

Another dav"a journey brought us to Cha-

on— a hamlet at the foot of tbe Great ,
Wall. Tho road for tho last fifteen miles
had been eo bad that we were obliged to

avo our horses at Nankan, hiring in their
places Tartar ponies. Nothing less aure-
footed than these shaggy, hardy littlo beasts
could have carried us through those rugged

luntain paths, whioh wo would havolone
foot, but that one mile's march over the
sharp rock whioh forms tho pavement would
have left ns shoeless.

At daybreak on the following morning
wo climbed the highest peak of the moun-
tain range, and there, etnnding on the top
of the great wall, reflected upon tbo stupen-
dous folly of this wonderful work of human
industry, which is said to have cost tho
country two hundred thousand lives from
sheer physical eibaustion. Tho wall, which
is built of slone and brick, is twenty feet
high and fifteen feet broad, surmounted by
a double parapet loop-holed on tho north
side. As for as tbo eye can follow Ibe
mountain range it winds over the ridges of
tbo precipitous black rooks like a gigantic
serpent crawling along, and with its breath
poisoning all around ; for, turn where yon
will, nothing meets the view but the deso-
late, dreary tract of rock, unreh'eved by a
blade of grass or a tuft of moss, and huge
boulders strewing tbe base of tho mountau
sides. It was tho whim of a tyrant lo build
a wall where nature had already built a bar-
rier far more effectual than anything that
human art could construct. However, thero
it remains, after a lapse of nearly two thoa-
sand years— a monument of tbo cruel folly
of ono man, and the patient industry and
suffering of many thousands.

Having made an oborlivo attempt at a
sketoh, ond tried to discover one redeem-
ing feature in this vast scene of desolation,
I secured my brick, sod descending to the
psss, remounted to proceed homeward. Our
guocd could hardly believe his senses — cer-
tainly ho doubled ours. When at Nankan
mlae host inquired what ne were going to
the Great Well for. Our honest answer
met with no credit. Were there not walls
everywhere 7 Was not Iho wall of Pekin
much hotter looking at ! And then, ns for
shooting, why come so lat for game when
it could he bought in themarkot atour very
doots f His impression evidently was that

Lady Subscribers.

Wo feel highly complitni:nted with a fact
which we cannot refrain from nolioingi that
our readers generally may benefit by tho
infomaation, vis ; Wo have more lady sob-
^cribets on our books for The Crisis, than
we ever had at any one limt, before, (hroogh
n connection with the press for over thirty
yean past- Some foar or £ve of them have
taken t^oite an intereut in extending our cir-
culation in their immediate vicinities. Gen-
tlemen, do not be outdone by the ladies.
*Wo have had occasion, in many instauree.
to notice that tho ladies were taking a deep-
er interest in the gloomy affairs of our na-
tion, and are mcich more otit-spoken than
the gentlemen. We have, also, frequently
heard this spoken of by others. It has gen-
erally been considered as one of tho bright-
est signs in our dark aurroamlings.

In many instances husbands have said to
us, verbally and by letter, that the times
(tero hard, but that their wives would not
do without The Crisis. That it was the
paper the family kept to read.

Wo will try and mako our paper worthy
of theso favorable considerations. From a
rush of matter, coming within the prescrib-
ed range of our paper, we aro not ulwoys
able to moke each number what wo Uosiro,
but labor faithfully to oiako it as good as
ciroomstanccB will admit. To ooUoot, cull

War neus of (lie Week.

We are at luEt in Ihw midst of war,
"(vors alarms,'' in earnest. The
lajiag clemtal.-! of the last nine months
bdve burst forth in all Iheir terrific grand-
eur, and many a poor fellow lies cold in
death.

At this writing wo only havo tho brief
faots that a terrible battle hn3 been fought
at Fort Donelson in Kentucky, and that
our arms are complete viators of the place.
This terrific battle, putting alt other battles
completely in tho abade over fought or
this cODtinenti sends a thrill of Joy, of sad-
,ness, of hope, of foarfl, of confidence, of
donbt, all over the North, with its equal
sadness and despair all over the South.

Wo are joyous because our bravo troops
were victors — wo ore sad to learn that so
many are gone never to revisit the peaceful
hotnes they kft — and sed to think of the
maimed and wounded who, though they
live, suffer more than death. We are buoy-
ed; with hope that this great victory and
others accompanying it may lead to a
speedy and amicable peace, and our coun-
try, be one again — while fears crowd rapid-
lylafler. that tho same spirit of poUlical re-
venge, of the Republican leaders will cry.
nuj! — no peace, no listening to any propo-
sitiona of settlement, until a war of exter-
minations devastates tho land of the rebel-
liolis. Wo havo more than confidence in
our bravo army, whioh is ready to do its
doty, hut we havo doubts wliotber their vic-
tories will bo turned to good account, until
President Llt^COLN drives from around him
th^ disturbers of the national harmony.

It will require tho minds of mighty
Statesmen to turn our victories to great —

^nt. Wo hear of a wild Union

ng along the Tennessee river as far as

boats ran, after tho surrender of Fort

lonry — even to Florence, Alabama, But

thil Union feeling is not an nholition feel-

t-it is net an aoti-slBvery feeling — it is
eneb a feeling as will justify tlio blot-
out of States and converting them
intp territories. It is the same Union feel-
ing South which begged a year Uf^o for a
peaceable compromise of our national trou-
bles, but which was ruthlessly voted down
by the Kepublicau politicians.

be turned into
coercion, subjugation, emancipation, con-
quest or oiterminatioD. then wo are just
Ssring upon interminable commotions,
: the acene is jnst opening. If the old
Democratic Forty was in complete power
in the North, we should not have tho least
fears, but what from this hour, six months
hence, our noble old Union would bo once
more fully restored. As it ia, we must wait
and see.

The fiaat two weeks havo been one con-
tinued series of Euccesaes on our side, and
wo must all give our now Secrolary of War
the full mead of praise, for his masterly
management of bis department as well as
tho gallant Generals commanding, and brave
soldiers who are in the field.

The courage, daring and bull-dog ob-
stinacy of both contenUing armies at Fort
Donelson, has scarcely a paralK-l on record.
They havo fully .sustained their reputations
of American soldieis, and pity it is they had
not been fighting as brothers in arms
against our common foes, tho despots of
Europe, against whom we havo got to mea-
sure nrtns before this ia all over.

As President Lincoln well said " we can
not fight always." As our victories ore
now complete, let every movement hereaf-
ter look lo ai speedy n termination of this
calamitous war as possiblo. Whiio victory

tion of tho strifo. before wo get entangled

ith foreign complications, which is inevit-
able, unless the three powers retire from

exico within a short period.

If the leaders at Itiohinond deoline to
make any terms, let us appeal to the
Slates Ihcmselvcs, each for itsolf, to return
speedily and peaceably to their allegianco,
and the Richmond government would soon
scatter to to tho winds. This will give tho
Union feeliog free action, and tbo common
anfuty of uU would coon change the whole
order of atFiiirs. Let such a movoincnt be
at once put on foot and all may soon be
well, and Iho awful .saerifico of human life
bo checked

The Burnside expedition to Koanoko Id-
laud has been a complete success, so fur,
and tho iikolc Island and itsdelvnses are in

or throu thousand pcisouers, ornis, ammuui-

Wo ore pleased to see that uur Cinoin-
nati friends, in their great rejoicing over the
victory at Fort Donelson, aro nut unmind-
ful of tho wounded and suffurlug fioldior^.
They at once sent vessels aud uid to assist
in uttouding to Ihoir wants. This is hon-
orable, christian, patriotic, and is a matter
ofju.sl

We havo crowded upon the last pages of
this paper tho speech of Mr. V.ts Wv
of the House of Congress on tho army rats.
It is a rich specimen of Jlepablican patriot-
ism, sketched by one of thi-ir own orators.
Senator WADBonce said In hlspolito litera-
ture, that the WTiig Party " was dead, and
slinkelh." We should now iiko to hear
hia opinion of the Republican Party, which
he helped lo rise from ih ashes. Is it any
improvement 7 We think not, by tho
length of a railroad lo the Pacific. Had
the Whig Party lived, we should to-dny bo
a great and peaceful nation, and half of
these army thieves in tho Penitentiary for
horso stealing, as they never would work
like honest people.

First Victory; aud then Wbat

Let no one suppose that the victory of
our arms over tho South is going to recon-
cile tho Northern Republicans lo a settle-
ment of our troubles. When tho fighting
the South in arms is over, or even the pros-
pect of it being over, then will come the
tug of WOT, iiolilicatly. The abolitionists,
headed by StiMXEK in tbo Senato, neve
tend tho South shall be received back into
the Union, pcoceably, amicably, honorably,
us States, part and parcel of this Unio)

It therefore behooves overy true friend
to the Union as it wae, and as our army
lighting to make it, to be wary and vigilei
Wo have full confidence in our new Secretary
of War, Mr. Stanto.i, in Generals Mc-
Clellan, Halleck, Buel, Grant, Arc.,
&o.. but we have not tho faith in Congrei
that wo probably should have, that tbo poa
tion of these men will be sustained. Whelhi
President LiSCOLS will have the courage
and will to veto such measures of Coof
as will thwart the views of the gontle
named above, wo cannot gay. Wo hope so,
for on that our fatnie depends.

The Union feeling South will melt
snow before an April sun, if tho aboliti<
emancipation measures before Congress
should pass. It would create a now revo-
lution in Western Virginia, Missouri nnd
Kentuokyi and involve the wholo North in
inextricable dissensions, and loose us tho
great portion ot our army, for bravo as it is,

Ciiicvco, Feb. Ill,— A spociol dispatoh
> tho rnbune. dated Cumberland Itiver,
near Fort Donelson. Fob. 15th, A. M., says
firing commenced ncain at daybreak, and
continued at intervals all day lone un to
four o'olock. No movement or assault' by
the land force had been made.

Night before lost an atti.mpt noa made
by the rebola to take Taylor's battery of
Light Artillery, hot they wore repulsed by
(wo regiments, and driven baok beyond
their iotrenohmonts. Our loss in wounded
was considerable, but not nioro than three
or four aro dangeroasly wounded.

SiT Bunboals arrived yesterday nnd com-
menced an attack on tho fort at 2 o'clock
in the afternoon. The firing wns very rapid
and eevore, and lasted ono hour and Iwonty
minutca, when our gunboats full baok.

Tho fonr iron oind boats wont within thrp.
hundred yards of the fort.

All tho rebel rivor guns, escopt sis, were
either dismounted or silenced.

The first Bhot fired from tho gunboat
Louisville dismounted tho robola' fiundrod *
and twenty-eight pounder- Tho Looiavillo '
received 57 shots, two of whjch toot effect,
ono striking tho starboard sido of hor daok,
and passing throuRh the entire length of
tho boat, killing three men ond breaking
her tiller rope a short distanoo from the pi-
lot house; the rope was then managed hy
some of the hands, when a shell from the
Taylor, which lay some distance astern,
burst over the Louisville, scattering thv
men at the tiller rope, and so much disabled
borsteering tackle that tho boat was oom-
poiled to drop astern.

Ono shot struck the Pittsbnreh in he:
bow, and stovo nn immense hole in her,
whioh caused her to drop out of the action.
The leak, however, has been stopped. On''
shot Blruct tho pilot-houaoof thoSt. Louii,,
passing through it between tho pilot's lege,
~ithout injuring bim. All thi> boats were

ore or less injured, hut none but tho Lou-
isville seriously.

There were five killed and two wounded

I tho Louisville.

The gunboats will not he in a condition

renuiv the attack hefore to-morrow morn-

In conseijueDCo of thcheight of tho bluffs
1 which the rebel fortifications are built,
IT shot cannot have so much effect on
them us those at Fort Henry ; therefore it
'iUxequiro a mnch longer time to redufe
this fort.

A formidable attempt was made last night
to Inko Taylor'* battery by the oaomy, who
apprODoheu under cover of darkness, but
tbey were gallantly ropulkd by tho 20th
Illinois, Considerablcgkirmishing occurred
during the night, both forces endeavoring in
tbo darkness to crawl in upon the other.

This morning it was discovered that the
eaemyhad placed logs on top of their breast-
works, leaving a little apace for them to
s boot through, and much diminishing their
risks from the unerriog aim of our aharp-

Tho casualties ojitODg our arttUery thus
far has been very small. The loss of tbo
enemy, as far as can be ascertained, is con-
siderable.

Yesterday afternoon after the storming
party had retired, and when tbo rebels had
been thickly crowded together to repel tho
assault, Captain Taylor opened on then
with shell with tefriblo effect. His practice
was tiuperb, creating the greatest congter-
nation in their ranks, and caasing them tc
take refuge in their entrenohmeuts.

Tho gunboat assault was terriffio. exceed-
ing even tho Fort Henry bomberdment. It
latited about on bour and a half. The e)

tho lower ono of nine and tho upper four
guns, besides a ten inch oolumbiau.

could be seen carried up tho hill.

Kansas, Feb. lat. 18C3.
Gov. S. Medabt. Columbtu, Ohio :

DiaT Sir : The last number of the first
Tolome of The Crisis was received last
Ding, and I. on reflection, found that I had
not reneued my subscription for onothei
year. This tardineas was not tn cooao-
qucnce of my not highly appreciating tbe
paper ; on Iho contrary, there is not a Dem-
ocratic journal now published in the United
States that I esteem as much, and that for
the very heat of roaaoos : there ia none
other that Jevelopes the true and genuine
principles of Democracy with equal energy
and perapiouity as does The Crisit. Tho
mam causes of my negligence in not renew-
ing my subscription sooner, was indisfiosi-
lion. I have been confined to my room from
Ibe effects of a severe bilUous attack since
the beginning of September last.

I have read The Cruis, however, and
carefully noted your own productions as
editor from the very first number to tho last;
and after taking a glimpse through the viata
of rotroapeotion ond comparing the produc-
tions of your own pen with Democratic doc-
trine as laid down by Jefferson, Madison,
Jackson and others, I find you strictly ad-
here to the old land-marks, without any de-
liation whatever.

But, sir, why is it, that your fearless, en-
ergetic and manly endeavors for tho prosor-
vaUon of our free inatilutiona, and the rights
and liberties of the peojiU fftntraUy, as
guaranteed to them by tbe Constitution, are
not more generally austained by the Demo-
cratic preaa of Ohio? They all, or nearly
all, have endorsed your measures; but at
tho same time do not, aa a general thing, lay
their shoulders to the wheel tbemaolves.—
They, or the most of tbem, are convinced
that your measures aro right, as results of
)he present crisis prove every day; yet
there ia a deriliction on their part as Deiiio-
eratio journals, to impress these measures
on the people, and arouse them from their
political stupor, and enlavglemcut in the
meahea of that abolition seine, which if not
HOOD liberated the result will Lo the total
overthrow of this once happy republic.

Now, to prove my position in oneinstanae,
i would refer lo Iho fact that if your sug-
pestions lo tbe Democracy, with those of a
low other pressoa of Ohio, had been endors-
ed by the Ohio press generally, as lo the
policy and ejpedioncy of oalling a Detiio-
cratio Convention on tho Sth of January
Just, tho Deniocrntic ball might be rolling
with equal force and velocity aa it now does
in Indiana. JJut the uicaaurc was stifled in
the bud, and somo of us oW slagen here,
out ill Kansas, think there was nu influenco
at work to accomplish ihat end not nmiiy
enuares from yourolhorea. as you ait in your
aditorial Eancliim.

But it may, witb propriety, be naked, by

f fied ? Tho 0

Q Ibis sUto of thi

lings

I ivoulil refer all _

or fourth number of tho lirst volumo of TAe
Crisis. There they will find tho correct
doctrine laid down editorially : tbat it is tbo

vcoplt — tbo Democracy of the country

that must act to redress tboir onii mrouga
ajii the wrongs of the body politic general-
ly. If tho Uomooracy generally bolievo
that their Central Committoimrodoiolicl, lei
them call their own primary meetinga aa did
the Democrats of Indiana, and act aocord-
jngly— act with energy and jiromptness.—
And this ia ihoir privilege. Yea ! it is their
duty. And it is a doctrine as true na " aa-
oredwrit" itself. If our present troubles
ure over brought lo a saliafuotory termina-
tion, tbo element that accomplishes it must
originate from and act in accordance witU
tto i»«ttn iriU of the people. As it is now,
corruption in our public Eervnnis atares us
in tbo fooo on every band. The nation
generally, as well oa tbo Stnleaindividually,
are about being loaded with debts which
will render tbom, for generations to come,
almost bopolessly insolvent. If tho birth-
rights, or the rightaof tbe people, under tho
Constitution have been sold tor n mesa of
pottage by their public servants, it behooves
tliem then to replace ihora ns quick ns pos-
jiblo with honest and faithful servants tbut
are incnpablo of doing or acting othcrwiaa
than in accordance irilb their knonn will.

Mv Dear Sir~I aend you enclosed two
dollars for The Crisis another year,

one I seu that is worth reading ""

tablished offenso or crime, have been shot ;
in some cases I bnvo learned that my dis-
charged soldiers bnvo been seized whenever
and wherever they bnvo shown tbcmselvea,
and that they bavo beou by military coer-
cion forced into 11 sorviludc unknown t^in-
ternnlional and civilised usage in such ca-
ses. J have obtained information that indi-
viduals Mid parties of men especially ap-
pointed and instructed by me to destroy
roilronds, culverts nnd bridges, by tearing
them up, burning, iio., have beou arreslca
and Bubjected to n. General Court Martial,
for alleged crimes which nil the laws of
warfnto, lier«lofore reoognijed by tbo civ-
ilized world, have regarded as distinctly
proper and lawful.

I have learned that such persons, when
tried, if convicted, of the offense or offen-
ses, as slAtod, ore viewed as lawful subjects
for capital punisbmeat. These statements,
brought to me in various ways, I cannot
believe to be correct. It is upon this sub-
ji'Ot that I propose to address you. It is
necessary that we understand each other;
and bate some guiding knowledge >- r" that
eharacUr of warfare, which ia to be waged
by our respectivo governments.

This understdDUDg abould bo given
1(1?, it is desirable, both by you and by
e. Both armies desire it, and the eiigen-
es of war demand that some certain rules
-hould be Ibe basis of our respect
rluetaad control. Delay is vital,
□ot be alloWed. Wo must understand each
I'lher. Do you intend to conlloue the
rest of citizens ougOL'ed in their ordinary
peaceful pursuits, and treat them as traitors
nnd rebels ; if so, will you mako oichnngt
with'mc. for eucb as I may or will mnko for
'imilnr causes] Do you intend to regard
members 6f 'this army ns persons desorvi
liinth •chmcicr and whfrei-cr they mny
raptured! or will you eilond to them 1
recognized rights of prisoners of war, by
tho code of Ibo civilised world? Do you
regard (and slate ns such tho law governing
your army,) tho destruction of important
rends, transportation facilities, &<s. , for
military purposoe, as tho legal right of a
belligerent power? Do yon intend lo re-
gard men, whom I havo especially dispatch-
ed to destroy roads, burb bridges, tare up
culverts, ike., as amcudblo to tbe enemy't
court luarlial, or will you have them to be
tried, ns usual, by tho proper civil authori-
ties, nccording to tho sinlules of the State.'
It ia vastly importont to tbo interesl of nil
parties concerned, that those momonlous
issues should bo determined. No man de-
plores the horrors of war more than I do :
uo oie will sacrifice more to avert its deso-
lating march- Each parly most be heard.
Eocb must have a hind of common protec-
tion. I am willing to afford tbia. It re-

ii.ii let us fully understand each othf
iL,^ piiint. If yon send armed forces v
ing tho garb of soIdicrB, and duly organized
and enrolled as legitimoto bolllgetents, to
destroy railroadfl, bridges, itc, as a military
act. wosholl kill them if possible, in opi
warfare, or if we capture tbem wo eni
treat them as ririaoncns of war. Bnt it
well uoderstood that you have sent numbers
of your adherents, in tho garb of peaceful
citizens, and undor false pretences, through
our lines into Northern Missouri, lo rob
and destroy tha property of Union men,
and lo bum and destroy railroad bridges,
thus endangering tho lives of thousands ;
and this, too, without any military neccssUy.
or possible military odvanlago.

Moreover, peaceful citizens of Missouri,
ijuietly working on tbeir farms, havo been
inatigalcd by your emissariea lo lake up
arms as insurgents, and to rob and plunder
and to commit nrsonand murder. Tbey do
not even act under tbe garb of soldiers, but
under false pretences uud in tho guise of
peaceful citizens. You certainly will not
pretend that men guilty of such crimes al-
though " specially appointed and instruct-
ed by you," are ontitfod to tho rights ond
immunities of ordinary prisoners of war'
If you do, will you refer me to n single no
thority on tho laws of wnr which recogni
ECS such a claim !
Yon may rest assured, General, that a'

Erisoners of wor not guilty of crime wil
e treated with all proper consideration an
kindness. With the ciception of bein,
properly confined, they will bo lodged on
fed, and whore noeeasnry, clothed, lb
sumo as our own troops. 1 am sorry to soy
Ibnt our prisoners who havo come from youi
camps, do not report suoh treatment on youi

They eoy that you gave them no ratioue,
no oloihing. uo blonkets, but left them
perish with want and cold. Moreover, it
believed that you subsist your troops by
robbing ond plundering tbo non-combatant
Union inhnbilnnts ot tho Soulhwestoni
oounties of this State. Thousands of poor
families have fled to us for protection and
support. They eayyourtroopsrobbod them
of tbeir provisions and clothing, corryii
away their shoes and bedding, and evi
cutting olotb from Ihoir looms, and that yi
have driven women and children from their
homes, to slorvo and perish in the cold. I
have not retaliated such conduct upon your
adherents here, as I havo no intention of
waging such n barbarous warfare; but I
shall, whenever I can. punish such crimes,
by whomsoevbrthey mny be couimittod.

I am daily expecting inslractions respec-
ting nn eichango of prisoners of wor. 1

Second Volume of The Crisis,

COLUMBUS. OHIO — ■wmwT.v

TSvo l>oll(u*N n Yooi-.

The first volume of Tne Ciusia is draw-
ing to a close, and I now issuo this Pros-
PECTUBfortho second Volume. The Cribib
ia no longer nn experiment, but a fixed fact.
Wo onnnot fully express our gralitudo to
our friends who havo so falthfnlly stood by
us through tbo fiery ordcnl which wo have
encountered, Cut we arc porfooUy wUling
that lime shall test ihe correotnees of our
course and tbe truths we have placed upon

Our purpose has not I
discriminately tha "new
hand, nine-tenths of which is either pnro
fiction, or so distorted by tho writers for
some ignoble purpose, that it is little botloi'
than falsehood ; but lo cull from this mass
of contradictions what comports with tho
faotS) nnd may be tLus teUed npon with somo
oortuinty by the reader. " Nor," said, ono
of tbe greatest of authors, •■ will it bo less
my duty faithfully to record disasters min-
gled with triumphs, and grent national crimes
and follies far more humiliating tborv any
disaster." By thus manfully battling, with
falsehood nnd error, and carefully selecting
Ihe impartial truth. Tub Crisis will thoro-
hy become a valuable record for future rcf-
orence, s^bavingiot least, some approaobcs
to tho realities of transpiring events, in this
most oitrnordinary history of onr nation
and people.

It is our purpose also to continue through
the second volume, ns in the first, so clear
a political record of tbe past, bearing npon
tbo political aspect of the present, as tl)o
nature of our work will juslify, nnd tbe
perilous condition of our country domonds.
Our danger docs not only consist of
those in rebelliun against the Government
itself; but we are, nlso, continually sur-
rounded by tho dangerous scbemea of tbe
ambitious, Ihe blunders of the ignorant, qd^
the wiles of those in our midst who doeire,
in the tumult of tbe contending oloments, to
sap tho very foundation of so much of our
political structure, not environed by tho re-
bellious in arms ; to strike at tho indepen-
dence of tbe people, and destroy tho lost
hope of "the poor in this world's goods,"
with the weight of a political dependence-
There is a wide spread eSbrt to erase tho
distinctive character of tbe States, by deny-
ing lo them that home State sovereignty,
never yielded to tho national organization.
It is but a blind, of pretended patriotism,
through which to strike nt the people them-
selves. Wo shall therefore keep on a correct
and direct line, combatting error wherever
found, and while laboring to save the no/ion.
we shall nt the saiae time labor to save tho
yioplf. that when war's alarms and horrors
ure over, no may bo able to return to tbo oris
of peace, with our individual' rights secured,
with tbo freedom of conscience, the press,
and voice, still preserved, with which our-
selves ond onr children may re-raise the
shattered slruclure of tho present, to n
still greater glory and pre-eminence.

We ask iu this work no extrancoua sup-
port— the patronageof no cliques, combina-
lions nor the hire of corrupt polilioians ; but
the free-will offering only, of such as havo
patronage to give, nnd patriotism to con-
ceive ils value, whether from public func-
tionaries or from private citizens, We de-
sire to print a paper for our subscribers,
and our country, only ; unarmed by power,
nor seduced by the wages of the corrupt.

Cheered forward by tbe success we have
met wilb from the fearloaa and patriotic for
the past year — wo enter upon the future
wilb confidence that our friends, aubscri-
b<^rs nnd patrons will not decrease in num-
ber, but those that irp olready have will ex-
ert themselves in our behalf, while new
onus will step forward to aid us in making
tho 2d volume of Tbb Crisis on improve-
ment on the first.

EFriNOiIAM, III-. January 2", IStil.
Hon. Sli»rEV Breese — Dear Sir: Vuur
letter of reminder was duly received. I
ehould baTO sooner complied with my prom-
iso to give you a full account of tho coffee
raised in this county, nnd its mode of culti-
vatioDi had ! uot wished to inform myself
fully upon the matter, and also, of its real
value, before writing. Since I saw you at
Springfieldi I have made full inquiry of Mr.
Huffman and of other parties, who have
raised and tested the article, and I have also
tested it, partially, myself, ood can now
give yon as full a etatemcnt of Us origin,
mode of cultivation, productitcness and
qualilies, ns can be given from the limited
testa it has been in my power to give it.—
Tho information following has been obtain-
ed &om Mr. Uuffinao. e:icept where other-
triao stated :

Some three years since, Mr, G R. Huff-
man of this county, received a letter from
his SOD, who has been for some time a resi-
dent of Australia, enclosing THIRTY SEEDS
of a plant known there as East India Cof-
fee, togclber with direcllonafor its cultiva-
tion ; stating tbat it had been quite oitcn-
Bivcly and profitably cultivated there, and
ivas lost superseding alt 9lhtr eofftc.

On the IGth of Slay. A. D- ItfoH
Huffman planted these seed.s io otdinary
soil, without manure, planting the sai
depth Rfi corn, in hills, three feet aps
eaoh way, one deed in a hill, and tended
with a hoe, keeping the ground looso about
the plants and clear of weeds. This crop
ripened in Augost, when bo gathered over
sir Otooiand ie«h as it produces more than
tivo hundred to one. Of this product he
used one third tor Ibe purpose of testing its
usefulness and value- and becooiing fully
satisfied that it wos equal, if not suporior,
to the ordinory Uio Lotlce, planted ihe rc-
muining seed tho neit season, on tho fif-
tetnih day oj June, eighteen inches apart,
in c/ri7/j tA'^e /'«t'ya'''i and tended it tho
same as corn, plowing it three times, using
A common double shovet plow, and raised n:
hifl second year's crop <ivor four buskeU, (h,
teed ripening in fitpUmhcT. I encloso yoi
IV few specimens of the seed. Vou nil) per-
ceive that in appcnrance. ft is much like a
pea, except that it is enclosed in a kind of
IL husk or Hkiu. In preparing the stie
use, Mr. Huffman pourd boiling water
it, lotting it remain until the skin or 1
is loosened and eeparnf ea itself from tho seed.
, whioh then, most generally, divides into
• two pnrta, then dries it perfectly,
ToastM and grinds it as olUc-r coftve.
Samuel MotHlt, Ihe Secretary of our
cultural Society, (county) slates to me tiiat
be has tested it in Lis tamily, und thut hi'
oonsiders it fully equal, in flavor, iVc, ;

essential,

igorating, stimulating and
nourishing properties oT the genuine coffoe ;
while this latter, so far ns I, or others, who
have used it, can tell, possesses tbcm in a
r degree, while tho flavor although
g Bomowbat from that of other coffee,
I coffee flavor, easily distinguished
, nod not easily distinguished from
other coffeos, unless by one who knows
what it is, nnd is trying it for that purpose.
Another thing strikes mo as being highly
probable : thia coffee whioh we havo tested,
'i prepared from tbo fully ripened seed;
'Lile, although I do not know, I apprehend
that tho othor coffees are gathered and pro-
pared for market in a much greeuer state ;
this may havo some effect on tlio artiolo,
should future and more e]:tended. oipori-
domonstrate its worthiness of gena-
livation- I bnd almost forgotten to
state anything about tho plant on which
this coffee gro-vs. Ah near as I can gather
from the descriptions given me, tho plant
grows to about Iwenly inehcs in height, with
branches spreading in every direction from
tho ground up, filled with jioi/f. in each of
which pods grows one, end sometimes iico
seeds, never mow than two. Tho leaf is
doHoribed as resembling that of u houoy lo-
cust, but much smaller.

oa fuUy as possible,
from description, an account of this orliole-
"" eourso it is yet in its infancy; it may
^0 valueless, comparatively speaking,
I cannot help but think that it is dos-
tinod to prove of much greater advantage
to the country than anything which bos re-
cently been introduced, not oicopting the
Sorghum nnd Imphee.

I am yours, truly.

William U. Cooper-
_ , -I would state that Mr. Huffman is
somewhat surprised at the notoriety attained
by tho plant, as he did not wish to intro-
duce it to public notice until after another
season, but only to distribute a few seeds
among some of his neighbors. He has but
about a bushel of seed to dispose of, which
■ill sell at tho rale of fifty for oue dol-

A law case, recently tried in Paris,
ought to light n bit of very Frencliy
.ce. A married man, tho father of n
family, and a rioli widow, fell doaperatoly
in love, nnd as they could not be married,
decided that the no.it best thing was to coni-
It suicide. Then tbey had another bright
ea. They ivould make a. sort of " eternal
marriage " out of i(, end die " on the bridal
bed of dealii-" So nuidanie dressed her-
-superb marriage robe, and monsieur
had his hair curled to perfection and wore
enamelled hoots and broadcloth clothes. —
Tbey signed a document stating, "wo will
at least be married in eternity, since wo can
earth," and then closed the room,
lighted a brazier of charcoal, joined hands
it, inhaled the fumes, and soon became
aible. The lady soon died, but tho
gentleman fell on the burning charcoal,
which caused bis clothes to catch fire.
The neighbors smelt the oder ot the burn-
ing garments, broke into the room and saved
ais life, but not till he was severely burned-
On recovering ho was tried for the murder
3f madnme, and on thn trial these facts were
elicited- — Kentuikt/ Yeoman.

knew that Cummiogs was agent for the
War Department, slill ho counsels freely
with Mr- Develin about the vnlun of Ihe
Cataline, and gives an opinion what will bo
paid lor her charter. Had she been cheap
nt 318,000, his government was entitled tc
the purchase- After yielding to Mr- Dcvo-
Itu all tbo time be required for tho nego-
tiation, on tho 2.5Ih tbo boat was chartered
by Col. Tompkins, ho relying upon Cap-
tain Comstock, tho authorized agent of

for three months, and if lost '
then Government to pay S5O,0OO, Colonel
Tompkins would not sign until Cuptair

timony of Captain Comstock shows tho vast

for tho Government. Ho says :

Thia testimony was given on the 2Sth day
of December, and up to that time the Com-
mittee had no evidence or intimation that
Mr Weed had been on agent for tho Gov-
ernment, or nctiug as suob. The Commit-
tee arc not able to show by whom tho ves-
sel was loaded- But Colleclor Barney swears
tbat, on the 37lh of April, Mr. Stetson, in
whose name the title had been taken, cull-
ed on him, demanding o olearanec to An-
napolis. When naked bow she was loaded,
and to whom thc'cnigo Volongod, he replied
she was loaded with provisions, and bolong-
ed to several of hi.s frienda, Mr. Barney
refused to clear her. SColson then said the
provisions were for tbo army. Mr. Bainoy
replied, that, as the property was not Gov-
ernment propert}', but property of individu-
als, ho would not clcarhec except by tho re-
quest of Bomo Government officer. It is but
just to say hero, that Mr. Devoliu wns ovi-

don tly induced to purchase the vessel ot the
luggestion of those who wcro ocling fur
he Government, and that Mr. Stetson, in
everything ho did, was (rank, candid, and
made no concealment. When Mr- Stetson
again called on tbo Collector, "bo brought a
from Mr. Weed, etnting that the cargo
istcd of supplies for troops, and request-
ing a clearance." Mr. Barney doolined,
but saw Mr. Weed and explained why a
clearance could not bo granted, Mr, Weed
-aid "it was all right aud would be arraug-
d in some other way."

A pass wQs oblaiued from Gen- Wool,
'hich he regretted, for he sent an order to
tho Collector revoking il; but the fugitive
' oscapod. Her voyage was na unforlu-
* one, afior two months service tihe was
Toycd by firo. Tho question recurs,
■ were the friends referred to by Mr.
SteUon as the owners of tho cargo ? Mr.
Freoinau trho bad a ono-tentb interest in
tho profits, swears, after doolining to do so,
that he received as part security for Ibe
purohaao-money of tho Catntiuo,' four notes
of §4,5000 each, as follows : One note by
John E- Develin, endorsed G- C. Dovidaon ;
note by Thiirlow Weed, oodorsod John
E- Develin; one nolo by G- C. Davidson,
cudoraod 0. B. Hattoson ; one note by O.
Matteson, endorsed Thurlow Weed.
The only othur person besides Ihe Captain
-~' crew was James Lnrkin, who went on
boat, be said, as purser, although he
finally concluded his duty wna to act as
check upon Ihe captain. This mau was ap-
ited by Mr. Dovolin, upon tho recom-
mendation of Mr. Davidson. No oue
seemed to take any interest in loadiug the
-easel except Mr. Dovolin. Col. Tompkins
mew nothing of her cargo. Tbo Union
dofonao Comioitteo know nothing of her
cargo-, and Dr. Cunimings was a^ked if he
knew anything of bur cargo. §2,000,000,
by the Secretary of tbo Treasury, were
placed iu the hands of a commiltoe of high-
toned, honorable mon, to bo paid out on the
order or requisition of Mr. Cumoiinga, with-
out his producing to them any vouchers.

OE.VERM. MANIA FOR STEAUKG.

The mania for stealing seems to have run
through all the relations of government.
Even in the- matter of the purchase of two
saihng vessels, two men of New York, Io
" e crime of larceny, added Ihe sin of per-
ly, that they might rob from the Trea.sury
"OOO. In the ease of the Stars and Stripes,
the President of tbo Now Haven Propelb
Company, after toking from thoGoi-tiumri
SIO.OOO more thon abo cost, took of thnt
lount nearly S8,O0O to lino his own pock-
i, and, in excuse Io bis company, prelcodei
that ho had to bribe an e.i-Slomber of Con-
to gain an audience to Ihe head nf Ibe
lU -, and from that insinuation an
honorable, high toned ex-Member of Con-
gress in Connecticut had been eubjeolcd Ic

niltee, testified that after toking S19,000 ic
profits from bis country, he was so anxioa;

ity, that ho appropriated nearly $S,000 of
hia colleagues' muney to his private ui
be could devise some machine to take all
Ibe Southern cities and no one get hart.
The Department which has allowed con-
spiracies, after the bidding bad been cloipd
to defraud the Qovornuiont of Iho lowest
bid, aud by allowing the guilty Io reap tho
fruits of tbeir crime, has itself been par
liceps erimnis. Who piotends any public
exigency for giving out oy private contraol
willout bids, over 1|000|OQO muskets, nt
fabulous prices f Who pretends a public
exigency to moko a private contract for
rifling cannon to the amount of 9800,000.
HORSE COSTIIACTS.
My colleague on the Committee (Mr,
Dawes) a few days since spoke of ihe peace-
ufi'erings of Pennsylvania politician:, and
referred to the horses of Col. Williams' reg-
iment. There is yot another case. A con-
tract not made upon the respousibility of the
Bureau, as tbo late Secretary said, but by
bis express order, and refused to bo made
until 60 ordered- 1 refer to tho contract to
purchase 1.000 bocsea, to be delivered iit
Huntinodon, Penn. Such a horse market
the world never saw. Horses with running
sores, whioh wore seen by Ihe Inspectors,
and branded ; nnd if ono outraged common
decency ho would be rejected, on opportuni-
ty sought tho same dny to pass and brand
bim. Immediately Ihe horses were subsist-
ed by private contract to favorites, at 39
cents per day, and they sub-let to farmers
nt 2-1 Io 20 cents. Over 400 of these horses
were sent with Col. Wynkoop's regiment,
and Ihe pajiers nl Pittsburgh report some
octunlly so worthless Ihoy were left on the
docks, Tho remaining 50O were loft at
Huntingdon for (be benoGl of contractors,
In that single iransncliou over $50,000 wero
stolon from tho govcrnmeul.

COSTKACT DBOKEliAOE.
ThefestimOny of Mr. John Smith, of King-
on. is'- Y., powder manufacturer, shows
(hat in the month of May bo proposed to
give Mr. Weed n per oeulage (or n powder
coutracl ; that ho went to tho Aster House.
Davidson, whom he bad never seen
before; inquired of him for Mr- Thurlow
'Vood. During the convcrralion he asked
hat Mr. Smith wanted ol Mr- Weed; on
being told ho enquired of iMr. Smith what
bo could afford to pay ; ho replied five per
oenti Mr. Smith also says that Mr. Weed
asked him what ho could offord to pay.—
Thnt afterward, at Washington, ho handed
propositions for powder to Mr. Weed
who took them to Mr. Cameron. The re-
that Mr. Weed was authorized to

letter to Gen. Ripley, the head of

the Ordnance Department, to divide tho con
for powder bolwcen tho States manu-
facturing. It is somewhat strange that the
Secretary ahould appoint Mr. Weed oa his
messenger Io carry bis wishes to tho differ-
ent bureaus. Mr. Smith understood thai
ho was to pay Mr. Weed five per cent. Mr.
Laflin uUo lostifiod that bis powder firm d.-
murred to paying Mr. Weed five percent;
that Mr, Weed gave them authority to maks
1.000 barrels of powder, but they preferred

ig the QUlhority directly from the Gov-

eut. H.1 also testifies that tbo putriot,

THE PURCHASE 0(-' AUllS,
Another remarkable transaotion was tho
sale by the Ordnance Bureau, to Mi-. East-
man of 5,000 Hall's onrbines, as an arm
which needed eome alteration to be useful,
for Sa 50 each. This private salo was mode
ae when tho Department was buying
hioh had been condemned, and sent
from the arsenals of Europe. After on ex-
penditure of from 75 cent.-, to SI 25, thoy
?re Boldio Simon Stevens for S12. 10; thett
Gen- Fremont for 822. No woodor oui
ponsos are 82,000,000 per day— Govom-
oul sells at S'3 50, and in a short timo buys
back at S22. Dr. Cummings bought 700
of Ihe same carbines for §15. TheoviJenoe
of Mflj, Hagner shows that Mr. Stevens wan
agent or nid of Gen. Fremont. This
Stevens denies. However, the robiUon
I one of a warm personal character. Ho
bad probably just left him with inalrucUons
to purchase. His dispatch to l-'remont woi
just such OS no agent would send, or one
who bad the assurance of ibe necessities of

her charter the owner vealiied S15,000 from

Govemmont; thoy then asked ®60,000

Mr. Morgan paid $55,000. $5,000 leas ihaii
tboy asked, but $19,000 more than the cast.
While with the Potomska and Wamsultu
tho owners roaliied $53,000, tho Government
paid 860,000, although Mr. Morgan's popete
allege he was asked 880.000. Tbi« seems
tho reverse of tho proposition. The On-
ward was offered to privato parlies for $36-
000 ; Mr. Morgan was asked $.30,000, and
paid $27,000. These nro not the only in-

Our intormalion is that he wrote a legal

Tho object of conroiting the States into
TtTTilories is so plainly shadowed forth i;
letter from Wnahiugtoit," that n
further argument is necessary to set i
forth in all its horrors. Let no ouo sa;
hereafter, that ho was deceived. This letter
.11 undeceive all who could not underatand
before. The great ([uostion withpolitioians,
who profess to be opposed to the Suuneb
and LOVEJOV confiscation measures is, will
thoy or will thoy not go for the " territorial
(question?" If they do go ngainst the one
and for the other, we caunot sec it in any
other light than one of deception. Thoy
liku those who deny being abolitionists
and yet vote for the worst abolitionist:
the country. Wo have had enough of
this double. dealing — this fraud upon Ihc
iiderate portion of our people, li
bos proven nothing hut a partisan triok,
from which the conntry is suffering all the
of pangs death. It is quite time that mer
talked straight out. The forked- longued
brood of publio aspirants should bo discard-
by all parties nnd by all honest snen ol
every charaolor. It ia folly to talk about
restoring tho country until the people arc
fairly dealt with by writers and speakers on
all questions affecting tho publio interests.
Post Script.— Sioco tho above was writ-
n mo have tho resolutions just passed by
the Democratic Stato Convention in libodo
and, at which Gov. Sprague was re-nom-
.ted for the olBce ho go ably fills. Gov.
Sprague, the only Dcmooratic Governor in
tho North, led his own regiments into the
thickota of tho fight ut Manassas. No othei
Governor has done this. Not a single Ito-
publican Governor baa showed bia face a1
tho head of his men!

From tho resolutions we quote the lullow-
ing as pertinent to the Forney letter. It h
highly important and being sustained by
Rhode Island, it will be tho platform of tho
action of the Govornmont. It is moat time-
ly indeed, and boldly meets tho issue. Let

I-of Tlw Crtilj.
EiilTOB CiilSia :— I observe that ono of
your correspondents is ferociously "down
" editors. Ho belongs to a olass to bo
found iu every county Beat— who. failing in
their endeavors to control tho county prcBs,
ISO every means lo weaken its inflaenoe,
aod destroy tbo editor. Tho evil of wbioh
omplains — that of giving oCico lo odi-
— is one loo seldom committed, Whoro
editor is enabled lo procure office,
ugh tho iniluenoo of his posilion, hun-
dreds aro proscribed on that very account,
not only not permitted to bold of-
it oorapollod to labor during thoir
comparative poverty, Tho appoint-
ment of so many editors and altaehees of
tho Now York Tribune, and other oity edi-
ors, to office, by Lincoln, is an evil which
lould bo more speedily remedied and more
iffeotually too, by properly arousing publio
aontiment against tho parti/ whosa eonup-
.vo led them lo such things, than by
rani proscription of nil editors.
I notice a communication in tho Ciu-
Commercial, in favor of making a
general war upon country editors, uud doa-
troyiog their busLueas, by competliog them
to submit (0 having nil public work per-
formed by them, given out lo tho lowest
bidder. Aud tbia, too, be proposes to limit
n( printers. This would enable
irintora in eaoh county to combine,
and double the price, so that bot/i could got
equal sharo of tbo work, and add to the
eipensea of tho county. Vet, if left open
to all printers in cities and largo towns— all
the papers priutcd in smaller counties would
it, and auch papers uj tbo Comnieroial
reap aa immense advantage. Con-
gress has eatabliahcd a National Printing
Office- and if Ihis reform ia to go on at!
the country, each State should havo a
State Printing House and do all the work
Iho Stato and counties too— and, per-
haps, to save expense, Ibo Penitentiary con-
■ ■ light do the labor ! If tho officers of
every county wero compelled I
same form of blanks, ai
ecutcd at the same office, a saving of as
immcuso amount of money could bo made '■
True, hundreds of compositora and pross-
men wlio havo spent years to learn thu bua-
iaess, would be driven to sock other em-
ployment— but what of that — thoy are, per-
better than editors— unfit to hold
id the printing business Laving be-
corso Inatond of a blessing — why,
let them shift for themselves, or bo colo-
nized with the negroes in Lincoln's propoaed
colony !

And then, what is tho use of sotting up so
much type, aod printing so many newspn-
wbco, perhaps, tho Cincinnati Com-
al would suit overy body, if nil wero
compelled to read it, and no other was al-
lowed to be printed. True, next to the New
York Tribono, it is the most immoral, infi-
del, tory paper in tbo nation, yol if all wore
compelled to tako it, it could be furnished
very cheap, and an immense amount of
money could he tbua saved, an3 appropria-
ted to pay tho war debt I Seriously, this Is
as right and just as the proposilion of the
Commercial correepoadcnt.

Tho Legialaturo seems to me to bo play-
ing tho fool ou a large acale. Instead of
hunting up tho frauds committed by Denni-
aon and bia army contractors, last Spring,
and compelling them to refund Ihe money
stolen on conlraots for rations, clothing.
camp-groundN, etc., they nre wasting Ibeir
time iu endeavoring to cripple the county
press, and prevent the people from knowing
what laws Ihcy have passed, before another
session passes a new batch !

Truly, Mr. Editor, this a. small buaineasr
aod I have no patience to write about it.

Wie'oro a\\ aoiious for its settlomeut, upon
tlio immutable pdnoibles of justice. Andi'
there is no doubt such aetUemeut will have
to abide tho fate of this rear. I leavo it
with tho war.

, I propose to enlorgo upon the toit. '■ The
goodthot men do lives nftt-r tbem," I de-
0 ire to apply that teat to tho ago, to thoi
flay,' lo the very hour,, to tbo aoenes byl
ithloliwo nco surrounded, in which we now'
life, and to speufc of facts with which we
ore all familiar.

Judge Douglas died poor. Ho bad tilled
almost every po.'iition in public lifu — all but
ono to which tiu had aspired-, but lio died
poor. Hohad been a politioiin. He wo9
0, portizoD himself amongst partizons and
competitors, but never, in (he severest con-
test in bis Qureer, was it ehargi'd by tho
most bitter of his opponents, that ho had
put hia fingera loo far into the public treas-

Nover was be tbo richer for any position
bo over keld. A poor boy he oamo into
your logislnturo; and a mere boy ha went
outof^yoiir legislature— tho richer for no
ohoiter that passed it; for no scheme of
pcivato speculation or plunder. He went
into Congress, lie sat in his scat there sea-
Eion after session, while untold millions were
passed upon ; but who ever said, muoh less
who over believed, that one ci^nt of public
money went wrongfully into tbo hands of
Stephen A. Douglas ?

Like Clay, Webster, Benton, and other
great and honest men, bo died poor. Uoir
many gentlemen are there now within tbo
sound of my voice, who bavo had business
with Stephen A. Douglas, ond whore is tbo
man that ever dared to broach tbo proposi-
tion to him, Ibat with hia success with this
or that legislative enactment, he might pos-
sibly bo the richer ? And how few of ooc
public men, in this corrupt age, con be so
spoken of ?

Thero is another evil of tbo limns, with
respect to whioh, Judge Douglas shines as
oouspicuousiy as he does in tho matter be-
fore alluded to. It is the fasbion now-a-
days, when a man attains publio position, to
drag all his relatives into office after him.
It is a noted fact in the history of mankind
that greatness does not appertain to a whole
iamily; that nben a large amount of brain
is concentrated in ono bead it is very often
taken intbe some proportion from tbo heads
of others of the some family. Judge Dong-
las, when elected to office, considored that
"when the people voted for him, they did not
TOte for tho whole family of Douglases and
their collateiala, Nover did Stepbeo A,
Douglas in his life put bis bond upon a rec-
ommendation for ono of his relatives. I
|l6iOw it is true that be had relatives in office^
but they acnuirod these offices as bo him-
self acquirtiU bis — upon their own intrinsic

My first acqoQialoQCO with Judge Doug,
las wag during his campaign against Jobn
T. Stuart. He was then ixs poor as be was
Tvheu ho died. He. bad not the means of
' carrying ou (ho campaign in a wanner to
secure him a proper degree of personal com^
fort. All bis success depended on his tal-
ents. Well do 1 remember when I parted
' from him in Chicago after he had made hia
first speech thoro. Ho was leaving op
horseback. 1 asked what I could do for
jhim. Ho euid: " K^cp the isauo ptainl)'
". before the people." And when I aBkedbim
_ jwhat ho conaidured the issue, ho took a poj-
ci^ and wrote : " Shall our government bo a
^goveroucut of tho banks or a government
of tho peopio I" Words that never died on
Jn^ ears lo this hour, and 1 hopo never wilC
,"iWEUb God gives Die, strength to put a vo^e
in tfie' ballot bos, for tbo old JabkHonio^n
principles. ' ,

He stood on that issue, and uo man did
na much to implaut the sub-treasury pdnc|-
plo in tbo hearts of the Amr>ricQri people as
Stephen A. Dooglos.

Tbe next limo I saw Judgo Douglas, ho
came to Chicago ns ono of our Suprenio
Judges, who then performed circuit dutios.
Ho Vfos ridiculed as. tbo '' bnby Judge," and
especially wot ho ridiculed for his presump-
tion ID during to come to Chicago to hold
court, whore wo had then, as now, some of
tho ablest lawyers in the Union. I remem-
ber an agreement which was made among
hia'poUtical friends. It was that tboy would
not disturb him during tbo evenings, ao that
.^ might havo on opportunity lo study tbe
igrovo questious of law which might come
, heforo him for determination. Itut I novor'
found him with a law book in his luvnd. Tbe
fact is no man ever studied f.ooks as lUtle.
He hod OR Intuitive sagacity, that graspijd
every legal question tbo moment it wos sub-
mitted by_o member of the bar. Ho knojv
what tho authority ought to be, and I oun
safely say, that, unpopular as Uo was with
tho bar when ho camo to Chicago, ho went
away iho most popular Judge that wij over
bad in that circuit.

Wo met again, and that was in the Amer-
ican Congress lo which aiy oolteuguo, Mr.
Ficklln, has alluded, 1 shall never forget
tho hour — that great hoOr to mo, when ho
aroao on that lloor aud made the apeech con-
oerning Jackson's fine — Uiat great eOott,
with reference to which Gen. Jackson after-
wards took hia hand and complimented him
by saying that he hud novnr found bis owr
full justilication uutil he read it in lb
speech of Judge Douglas. That apoeol
mado him u louder in tho House of Rep-
resentatives,

Aud well do 1 remember Ihu groat cole- ,
bration of tho Domooracy ou Ibo 8tb of
January, l^-M, in honor of tbe pasaago of

tho bill refunding Gen. Jaokaon's lino. It
was tho last time the united Deraoornoy of
Ameribaoverossembled together on a feativo
occasion. I think I see stars that composed
that gala.Vy of talent and patriotisni now
shiDiDgbeforcme. There weroSilas Wright
Col. Bentou, Levi Woodbury, Gen. Gaines,
tbolato Vice President King, Judge Wilkins,
Senator Sevier, Gen- Dodge, and, in line,
every ono of that glorious band of Demo-
crats who adorned that day. but tho most of
whom have, wilb Gen. Jackson, proceeded
Judge Douglas to their final destination.
Ou that occasion, over to be remembered.
Ihore was no man more highly compliment-
ed by all present than Judge Douglas, for
bis efforts in tho holla of Congress. Tho
Elijahs marked him out as tbe Klisba upon
whom their mantle woa soon to fall. 1 know
Judge Douglas noil at the time of tho pass-
of the Illinois Central Railroad bill,
re was money at that time in that bill.,
but not lor him or for bis emolument- Illi-
pcks bad previously gone down very]
d our Stale been brought almost to|
tho very verge of repudiation. It was un-^
dorstood that tbe bill was lo pass tho neit
day. A stir was made in the lobbies and
among the hangers-on about Congress, with.
the idea that u good time was coming, andi
many stflrted lo New York to eppoulute in.
stocks. Judge Donglas bad tbo same op-
portunity among monled friends as others,,
but it was bib bonst that he never would'
make a cent through his political position.

Douglas wa^ naluratly o great man, as,
much so as any man that ever adorned
American history. Ho wns ambitious, but
t so much bis own as tbe ambition
of bis friends in his behalf. With them there
nan like Douglas. With tbem there!
pluco that ought not to bo filled by"
Douglas. With them the old proverb that
there is no timo and place for bU things was
'ntirely set oaide. With tbem litre was
always tho place for Douglas, and noic was
always the timo for Douglas. Many have
asserted that he would have bean President
but for his own aonioty. In this cnsu, as
that of tho gallant Clay, it was not his over
aniicty, but that of his friends. Scarce
was one Pre s i de u I iai election decided before
they began tho contest in his name for the

Mr. President : I make these remarks as
duo from one who opposed Judge Douglas
tho latter part of uia career, so far us re-
lated to the extension of human slavery,
lut from ouo of his most ardent friends and
admirers in all those measures in which ho
.Iked in tbe foolslops of tbo fathers of
r constitution. Indeed, ho may bo said
to bo the only man whom personally, over
and above all others J. ever desired to seo
mado President. I never wish to become
o strongly person ally attached to any other
nan. It is dangerous to beeo, for wo should
.Iways follow principles rather than men.
But when I almost adored him I agreed vritb

mralion continued for several years
upon our disagreement touching the propri-
ety of tho csteusion of tho ordinance of '57
to all new territory. Dut when he made his
last speeches in this hall ond in the Wigwam
at Chicago, I recognized him no longer as a
partisan, but as a patriot, fighting for the
oonstitution, tho same flag and the
country as myself. .\fter these
Spaoches, the last particle of animosity in
my bosom and in tbo bosoms of my politi-
cal assooiates died out. I thought that I
I thai the enemies of our republic's oi-
mce reasoned well for tbe furtheronce of
their designs, when at Charleston they de-
clared it necessary to destroy Douglas be-
fore they could destroy tho constitution of
their country. From tho property of a
oparty. Judge Douglas, by theso speech
became the property of all tho loyal
people of tbo country. His speeches, like
;ho3o of Patrick Uenry in the revolution,
■Qused hia countrymen as ono man to the
defense of their flog. He at onco culmi-
nated in tho zenith of universal admiration';
but in the mysterions workings of that
"■ vidcnce who overrules all things for
d, that culmination was of short dura-
. Ho died, the gteal man of tbe time,
ond whom have we. as a popular leader, to
take bis place ? Aai lo recur again to that
t upon which my romarka have been
predicated, muy the good that Stephen A.
Douglas did, live after him ; may his dying
"^"Ico to bis children be engraven upon all
hearts, and be tbe incentive to all our

Captain: I havo tho honor to report that
I carrying out thoinstruotions of the Gen-
eral commanding this Department, contain-
bis communication of lUe 29th Decem-
ber. I reached Logan's Cross Boads, about
ten miles north of the intrenched camp of
tbe enemy on tbe Cumberland river, on tho
17th inst., with a portion ot tbe Second and
Third Brigades, Kinney's battery of artille-
ry, and a battalion of Wolford'a Cavalry.
The Fourth and Tenth Kentucky. Four-
teenth Ohio, and the Eighteenth United
SUles Infantry being still in the rear, de-
tained by tho almost impaaaable conditiou
of the roads, I determined to halt at this
point to await their arrival, and lo oommu-,
nicate with General Scheepf- ,

The Tenth Indiana, Wolford'a cavalry,
and Kennoy's battery took position on the;
road leading to the enemy's camp. The
Ninth Ohionnd Second Minnesota (part of
Colonel McCook's brigade) encamped three,
fourths of II mile to the right, on the Rob-
erts port road.

Strong pickets wore thrown out in the di-
reotion of tho enemy, beyond where thei
Someraet and Mill Spring road comes intoi
tho main road from my cump to Mill Spring.'
and a picket of cavcdry some distance in'
advance of tho infantry.

"eneral Schoepf visited uio on the day of
arrival, and after consultation I directed,
. . _ to send to my camp Standart's battery,,
tho Twelfth Kentucky, and the First and
Second Tennessee regiments to remain until
' e arrival of the regiments in the rear.

Having received information on tho ovo-

ng of the 17th that a largo train of wag-

13, with its escort, wore encamped on the
Eobertsport ond Danville road, about si.^
miles from Col. Stodman'a camp, I sent an
order to him to send his wagons forward un-
ii a strong guard, and to maroh with his
'giment (tlic Fourteenth Ohio) and the
Tenth Kentucky. (Col. Harlan,) with one
day's rations in their baveraacks. to tbo
point whore the enemy wore said to bo en-
camped, nnd either capture or disperse them.

Nothing of importance occurred from tbo
timo of my arrival until tbo morning of tbe
19th, eicept a picket skirmish on tno I7thJ
ThoFonrtb Kentucky, tbo battalion of Mich-
igan Engineers and Wotinore's battery, join-
ed on tbo latb. About half-past five o'clock
on the morning of the l!Jtb, the pickets from
Wolford'a cavalry encountered tbe enemy
advancing on our camp, retired slowly and
reported their advance to Col. M. D. Man-
son, commanding the Second Brigade.

Ho immcdialoly formed his regiment, (the
Tenth Indiana) and took a position on tho
road to await thoattacfc, ordering the Fourth
Kentucky (Col. S. S. Pry) to support him,
and then informed mo in person that the ene-
my were advancing in force, und what dis-
position he had made to resist them. I di-
rected him to join his brigade immediately
and hold tho enemy in check until I could
order up the other troops, which were or-
' red to form immediately, and were march-

T to the field in ten minutes afterwards.

Tho battalion of Michigan Engineers, and
Co. A Thirty-eighth Ohio (Copt. Green-
wood) were ordered to remain as guard to
tho camp.

Upon my arrival on the field soon after-
wards, I found tbo Tenth Indiana formed in
frontof their encampment, apparently await-
ing orders, and ordered them forward to tho
support of tho Fourth Kentuoky, which

^a the only entire regiment then engaged,

I then rode forward myself to see the ene-
my's position, so as I could determine what
disposition to make of my troops as they ar-
rived. On reaching the position held by
the Pourtb Kcntuosy, Tenth Indiana, and
Wolford's cavalry, at a point whore the
roads fork, leading to Somerset, I found thi;
enemy advancing throagb a corn field, and

most dotermincd
of my aids to rido
back and order up a section of artillery, nnd
the Teunoseeo brigade to advance on the
enemy's right, and sent orders for Col. Mo-
Cook to advance with his two regiments ftbe
Ninth Ohio and Second Minnesota) to the
support of the Fourth Kentucky and Tenth

A section of Kinney's battery took a po-
sition on tho odgo of the field lo tbe left if
tbe Fourth Kentucky, and opened an effi-
cient fire ou a regiment of Alabamiana,
whioh was advancing on the Fourth Ken-
tucky.

Soon afterwards the Second Minnesota
(Col. H. P. Van Cleve) tho Colonel report-
ing lo me for Instruction s^l directed him to

nearly out of ammunition. The Ninth Obi6,
under tbe immediate command of Major
Kaemmerling, come into position on tbe right
of the road at tbo same time.

Immediately after tbe regiments hod gain-
'd their poaillona the enemy opened a most
lotormined and galling fire, which was re-
turned by our troops in tho same spirit, and
nearly half an hour the contest was
maintained on both aides in tho roost obsti-
nate manner. At this time the Twelfth
Kentucky (Co!. W. A. Hoskina), and the
Tennessee brigade, reached tho field to tho
left of tho MinnossotaHegimont, and opened
lire on tbo right Hank of tho enemy, who
then began to fall back. Tbe Second Min-
nesota kept up a most galling fire in front,
and Ninth Ohio charged the enemy on the
right, with boyonetafixed, turned their flank
and drove tbem from the field, the whole
line giving way and rctrcatiog in the utmost
disorder and coufuaion.

As soon as Ihu regiment could ho formed
and refill thoir cartridge boxes,! ordered
tho whole forcn lo advance. A few milis
in the rear of tbo battle-field a small force
of cftvolry was drawn up neor tho road, but
a few shots from our artillery (a section of
Standart's battery) dispersed thorn, ond none
of tho eneniy were seen again until we ar-
rived in front of their intrench moots. As
wo approached their lutrenchmcnta tho Di
vision was deployed in lino of buttle and
steadily advanced lo the summit of the hill
nt Moulden's.

From this point I directed Ihi'ir intrench-

ment-j to be cannonaded, which was done
until dark by Standart's und Wctmore'a
batteries. Kinney's battery was placed in
position on tho extreme lett at Kussetl'a
nouse, from which point ho was directed to
fire on their ferry to deter them from at-
tempting to cross. On tbo following morn-
ing Capt. Wetmore'a battery was ordered
to Russell's house and usaiatcd with his Pnr-
rott guns in firing upon tho ferry-
Colonel Manson'a brigade took position
on the left, near Kinney's battery, and eve-
ry preparation was made to assault their in-
Irenobments on the following morniug.

Tho Fourteenth Ohio (Colonel Stedman)
aud tho Tenth Kentucky (Colonel Harlan)
having joined from detached Eervicn soon
after tho repulse of the enemy, continued
with their brigade in pursuit, although they
could not get up iu lime lo join in tbe fight.
General Schoepf also joined me on tho even-
ing of tho 19tb, with tho Seventeenth, Thir-
ty-first and Thirty.eighth Ohio. His entiro
brigade entered with tho other troops.

On reaching tbo intronobmenls we found
that the enemy had abandoned ovcryfhiDg
and retired during tho night. Twclvo pie-
cea of artillery, with their oaissons pacKcd
with ammunition, ono battery wagon and
two forges, a largo amount of ammunition,
a largo number of small arms (mostly the
old flint-lock musket), ono hundred and fifty|
or siity wagons, and upwards of ono thou-
sand horses and mules, a large amount of
commissary stores, intrenching tools, and
camp and garrison ei)uipnge, fell into our
hands. A correct list of all the captured
property will be forwarded as soon as it can
bo made up and tho property seourcd.

The steam and ferryboats having , been
burned by tho enemy in their retreat, it was
found impossible to cross tbo riverand pur-
sue them ; besides their command was com-
pletely demoralii:ed, and retreated in great
baste iu all directions, making their capture
in any numbers cjnite doubtful, if pursued.
There is no doubt but what the moral effect
produced by their complete dispersion, wil
have u more decided effect In re-establishin(

It affords mo much pleasure to be able to
testify to the uniform steadiness nnd good
conduct of both officers nnd men during tbo

1 regret to have to report that Col. It. L.
McCook, commanding tbo 3d brigade, and
his Aid, Lieut. A. S. Burt, 18th U. S. Iu
fantry, were both severely wounded in tho
first advance of theOthObioEcgimeut, but
continued on duty until tbe return of Iho
brigade to camp at Logan's Cross Koads.

Col. S. S. Fry, -ItU Kontuoky Regiment,
was slightly wounded whilst his regiment
wns gallantly resisting the advance of the
enemy, during whioh time Gen. Zollicoffer
fell from a shot from his (Col. Fry's) pis-
tol, whiob, no doubt, contributed materially
to tho diaccmfituro of the enemy.

tho Lexington, Lieutenant Commanding
Shirk, as a second division, in cbargo of
Lieutenant Commanding Pholps. which took
a position astern and inshore of tbe armeil
boats, doing good exooution there in tho ac-
tion, while tho armed bents were placed in
the firat order of sleaniiog, apppoachine
the fort in a parallel line.

The Gro was opened al 1.700 yards dis-
tance from the flag ship, which was follow-
ed by the other gun-boats, and responded
to by the fort. As wo approached tbo fori,
slow steaming, till wo reaolied within COU
yards of the rebel batteries, tho fire, bolh
from tho gunboats nnd tho fort, increased in
rapidity and accuracy of range.

Al twenty minutes before the flog wu
struck the Essex unforlunotoly received t
shot in her boilers, which resulted in tbe
wounding and scalding of 29 officers nod
men, including commander Porter, as will
bo seen in tho enclosed list of onaualtiea.

Tho Essex necessarily dropped out of .
line, astern, entirely disabled, and unabi"
to continue the ;fight, in whioh aho had :■■
gallantly participated until the sad oatas

The fire continued with unabated rapjiii-
ty and effect upon tbo three gunboats ;ii
they continued still to nppronob tho for!
with their destructive firn, unlil tho rtljrl
flag was haulded down after a very sovi.t-
ond cloaely contested action of ono her
and fifteen minutes.

A boat containing tbo Adjutant Generd
and Captain of Engineers camo alongsiJ.
after tbo flag wns lowered, nnd reported the!
General Lloyd Tilghman, the Commanilc
of the Fort, wished lo communicate wilt
tho flag oflieer, when I dispatched Coai-
mander Stembel and Licatenant Comman<!,
ing Phelps with orders to boist the Amen
can flag where the Secession ensign bso
been flying, and to inform General TugbinoD
that I would see him on hoard tho flagship.

Ho camo ou board soon after the Union
had been substitnted for tho Rebel Flag no
the Fort, aud possession taken of it.

I received Iho General and his Staff anl

together with the fort and its effecl.-,
mounting 20 guns, mostly of heavy caliber,
with barracks and tents capable of accom-
modating I5,0f)0 men, and sundry article!
which, as I turned the fort ond its effect
over to Gen. Grant, commanding tho armr,
on bis arrival in an hour after we bad mad
the capture, be will bo enabled to give It,'
Goverument n more correct statement U
them than I am enabled to commuuicnl:
from tbe short time I bad possession of lli,'
Fort.

The plan of tbe attack, ao fur as lb
army reaching tho rear of the fort ti'
make a demonstration simultaneous wilii
the navy, was frustrated by tho eices
aively muddy roads and high stage ci
water preventing .the arrival of our troof<
until some timo after I had taken posse-
sion of the fort.

On securing the prisoners and making ti*
necessary preliminary arrangements, liii-
patched Lieutenant Commanding Pbelp
with bis division up tho Tennessee river m
I bad previously directed, and as will t)(
seen in tho enclosed orders to him to re-
move the rails, and ao far render the brid§:<
of the railroad for transportation and com-
manicntiou between Bowling Green and Co-
iambus useless, and afterword to pursue tli
rebel gunboats nnd secure their capture i
possible.

This being accomplished, and the arui;
in possession of the fort, ^snd my aervicf:
being indispensable nt Cairo, I left Fi>r;
Henry in tho evening of the some daf
with tno Cincinnati. Essex and St. Looi',
and arrived bero this morning.

The armed gunboata resisted efl"ectuaL'r
the shot of tbe enemy, when striking ll'
casement.

The Ciucinnuti, the flo^ Bhip.roceived Ihii-
ty one shots, tbo Essex|hfteen the St. heui^
seven, and the Carondelet six, killing od'
and wounding nine in tho Cincinnati, avii
killing one in the Essex, while tbe casuai-
ties in tbo latter from steam amounted '••
twenty-eight in number. The Carondol-;
and St. Louis met with DO ooauaities.

The steamers were admirably handled tif
tbe commanders and officers, presenting no-
It their bow guns to the enemy, to ove^J
the expoanro of tbe vulemable pointa ^:
their vessels. Lieutenant Command! dl
Phelps, with hia division, also executed ml
ordera very effectually, and promptly pro-
ded up tbo river in their further eiecu-
a, after the capture of the fort. Infact, uiJ
the officers ond men gallantly perfonniJ
their duly, and, considering tho little eip'
ricnco tbey have bad under fire, far m('^
than reali/ed my oxpeotntions.

Fort Henry waa defended with the mO:

upward of i.OOO small arms.

Among tbo prisoners are Col. Sbaw, com-
tDOnder of the island, and 0. Jenninps Wise,
commander of the Wise Legion, The lat-
ter was mortally wounded, and hos since
died. The whole work was finished on the
afternoon of the 81b instant, after a hard
day's fighting, by a brilliant cbarpe in the
center of the island, ond a rapid pursuit of
tho enemy to the north end of the island,
rosutting in tho capture of the prisoners
mentioned above.

We have hod no timo to count them, but
the number if .estimated at near ^,000,

Our men fought bravely, and bav9 endured
most msTifuliy tho hardships inoidont le
figbllng through swamps ond donso thickets.
It is impossible to give tho detAila of thf
cagagement, or to mention meritorious offi-
cers and men. in tho short time allowed foi
writing this report.

The naval vessels carrying it starting im-
mediately for Hampton Roads, and the re
porta of the Brigadier Generals have not
yet been handed in. It is enough to say
that tbo officers and men of both arms of
the service havo fought gallantly, and the
plans agreed upon before leaving Hattcras

I will bo ejcused for saying in reference
tu tho action tbut I owo everything to Gen-
erals Foster. Reno, and Parker, as more
full deloUs will show. I am sorry to report
the loss of about thirty-five killed, and about
two hundred wounded, ten of them proba-
bly mortally. Among the killed are Col.
Russell of the lOlh Connecticut Regiment,
and Lieut. Col. Victor De Monteil of tho
D'Epiuueil ZAiavcs. Both of them fought
moat gollanlly. 1 regret exceedingly not
being able lo send n fall report of the killed
and wounded, bat will send a dispatch in a
day or two with full returns.

1 beg leave to incloso a copy of a Geno-

am most happy to sny that I have just re-
ceived a message from Commander Golds-

I received on order from Gen. Reno, on
the morning of Saturdry, tho 6tti of Janu-
ary, 1852, nt 7J o'clock, to form line on tho
right of the second brigade. The regiment
started about 8o'clock a. m„ in the rear of
the First Drigade. After having marched a
distance of ulxiut half a mile, wo met three
companies uf the Slst Mossachusutt^. I
halted my colamn. and allowed them to take
their position. Following them on the main
road up the island, and marobiag a distance
of about half a mile, I received an order
from Gen. Reno's aid to force our way
through a dense jungle in the direction of
the fighting. On arriving near the rear of
the list MassaobusollB, received an order
to advance, and toko position ou their
left.

Finding Iho swamp almost impassable,
owning to the dense growth of underbrush
ou the right of my line. I ordered lour
companies of the right wing, viz : A, G, D
and I, to push forword Innard tho left, un-
der command of Lieutcnnnl Colonel Potter.
Said companies advanced and entered the
fire on the left of the Slet Massachusetts. —
During the engagement of the above com-
panies in soid position, the firing was very
galling, but itr was replied to with great
vigor, by both men and officers. I o'rdered
tho companies of the left wing to push for-
ward toward iheright. Finding It impossi-
ble lo engnge the enemy on account
of tho Cist Alassnobusctls Reglmeut be-
ing in front. 1 ordered the' men to lie
down, in order to avoid the showier of bul-
lets from o<^ own troops as well as those

tho euAy. The enemy finding that
they were oulfianked commenced to roireal,
when the order was given by Gen. Seno to
charge. Tbo right wing charged under
command of Lieutenant Colonel Potter,
while I led the left wing.

vine advanced a few paces in front of
tlieSlb Now .Jersey und the 0th Kow York,
I found their firo was directed into our ranks.

I'ABIS. January H, i!i(i2.
Sib: I write you in reference to n small
matter outside of tbe business of tho lega-
tion, but which seems lo me not improper to
communicate; the more especially as our
citizens abroad attach to auch things an im-
portonce much beyond-what they seem to
me to merit. In this mission, I havo fallen
heir, as you doubtless know, to an inheri-
tance of social trouble and veiotion, ii'>t
growing out of my business duties, but <■ ■
of such as are connected with preseutnti<i,,
lo tho court, and such like matters, 'l.>'
Rreut numbers of our countrymen who viniL
Paris, the facilities which have been given
by my predecessors for an introduction at
the palace, and tbo great liberality of the
court itself, in admitting auch introductions,
havo brought about a stale of things under
which I suppose the ofiicers of ceremony nt
the palace have not uiinalurnlly become res-
tive. For instance, in Hoking back for a
few years past, I find that in 1857, nt one
presentation only, eighty-four Americans
were introduced. At the two presentations
ill IP.'i'?, therf were introduced, forty-seven
,-,f ('■■ , r.N.i flfrv-sQVon at tho other. At
'1 ■ ■ ■ :is in 1859, siity-eight at

H. , . ,-, „- iu 1860— at tho one,
tl.,,;j 1..,.;, .u.i; .lI Iho other two, seven ly-
tUtei:, Iu l,:cil, the list is so marked that
difficult to say the precise number, but
of my predeoessor'a dispatches says
at one presentation he introduced thir-
ty-five, nud at another " a largo number" —
many, I know not- These presenta-
tions, you are aware, are on tho night of tbo
ball, and all who are presented are. of
course, iuvited to tho ball. In addition,
tliere Is an average of perhaps fifty other
resident in Paris, who have been
.presented in past years ; some, or perhaps,
ogt of whom expect invitations. Ai the
,Ies of court limit tho introduotioa of tho
subjects of other European countries to a
all and privileged class, the result is, that,
these occasions, the citiiens of the Uni-
ted Slates oatnumber, not only the subjects
of any country, except France, but probn-
bly outnumber tho citi;:eus or subjects of all

foreign countries of the world togalhor

There is a limit, if not to royal hospitality,
at least to spaec, in a ball aud supper room,
though they be iu a palace; a fact which
countrymen have not always remember-
In addition lo these matters, nt one of
presentations last year, an unpleasant
difficulty occurred with a young American,
nud there was besides unother violation of
etiquette of the court, to which it Is need-
less, more particularly, to refer. From these
causes, at tbo last presentation of
last year, (beingtbo one next after the above
'ncident,) Mr. Faulkner, after ho had sent
n his list, was called upon to add lo th'cir
their quality. " In a letter from the
secretary of legation, dated February 1st,
18G1, he declined to do this. He said that
s list WBS inconforraity with post practice,
id to which no exception had been before
taken ; that he could not add " Ihequolily."
because an American abroad could legally
quahty. exoopl that of n citizen of
the Ropublio ; but that, if the number ordi-
narily submitted for presentation was larger
tiiau was agreeable, a suggestion to that ef-
fect would In future be remembered. On

Sir; — Your dispatch of January 14tb,
No. 102, baa been received. It is accom-
panied by a copy of a note which you hove
addressed to Mr. Thouvcnel on tho subject
of the introdnction of American citizens
tbe Imperial Court.

I very frooly confess lo tho opinions.

First — That no audience or prescnlatioa
of any but diplomatic persons at court, "

be regarded uot in any di'greo os o right
of the person received, but as a courtesy

.tended by him.

Secondly — That tho imperial court is on
tirely at liberty to define ,and prescribe tb(
qualifications, conditions and terms on which
strangers shall bo admitted into Its

Thirdly — If American citisens request
you to present their wishes for admigsioi
court you can only present tlieni by c
plying with tho terms and conditions i

ribed.

Fourthly — Referring to tho quoations
which have actually arisen, I think that you

u properly, in all cases, give the oocupa-

n of profession of auy per.-ion whoso wish-
you present. You cannot indeed, under-
taku to assign tbe social position of each
person, for that would bo to discrienlDate,
or to seem to discriminate, by European
rulea, between persons who, being, al) abko,
Jitixens, may justly claim to bo Oquals '
fecial position at home, and therefore equ

«elf, when they are abroad. It seems
however, that In many casoi there ai

Tbe breaking out of a formidable insur-
rection, based on a conRlct of political idofts,
being an event without precedent io tho
United Stales, was Docoaaarily ntteudod
with great confusion and perpleiil? of the
public mind.
Disloyalty, before unsuspected, suddenly

1,-1.1 ^pj treason astonished tho

ce Into tho

—J — f — numbers to

tbo standing nrmy of tbo United States.

Every department of the Government was
paralized by treason. Defoetion appeared
in tho Senate, in tbo House of Representa-
tives, in the Cabinet, nocl in iho Federal
Courts. Slinisters and consuls relurncdfrom
foreign countries to enter tbe Insurrcclion-
ary councils, or land or naval forces. Com-
ounding and other officers in the army nnd
n the navy betrayed tbe councils or dcsort-
id their posts for commands in the insurgent
forces- Treason was flagrant in tho lovo-
□nd the post olficu services, as ivetl as
le territorial governments nud intholn-

Not only Governors, Judges, Legislalora
and Ministerial officers io the States, bat

ou wholo States, rushed ono o f tor nn other,

th apparent unanimity, into rebellion.

The Capita] was biOeiiguored. and its con-
nection with all tho States cut o6'. Even in
tho portions of tbo country which wore most
loyal, political combinations nnd sooietien
wore foundfuttheringthe work of disunion;
while, from motives of disloyally or cupidi-
ty, or from excited passions or perverted
sympathies, individuals were found famish-
ing men, money, materials of nor oud sup-
plies, to tho insurgents' military and naval
torces. Armies, ships, fortiS cations, navy
yards, araenals, military posts nnd garrisons,
ono after another, wero betrayed or aban-
doned to tbe Insurgents.

Congrosa had not nnticipated and so had
Jt provided for the omorgency. Tho mu-
nicipal authorities wero powerless nnd in-
lotivo. Tho Judicial machinery seemed as
f it hud been designed not to sustain the
Government, but to embarrass and betray it.

Foreign Intervention was openly invited

id Industriously instigated by tho abettors
of the iosurrootion, and it became imminent,
and has only been prevented bytbo praotico
of striotaud impartial justioe, with the most
perfect moderation, in our iiitercoursi; with
other nations. Tho public mind was alarm-
ed and apprehensive, though fortunately not
dislraoted or disheartenod. It seemed to be
doubtful whether the Federal Government,
year ago bad been thought a
model worthy of universal acceptance, bad
indeed tbe ability to defend and roaintoio
itself. Some reverses, whioh, perhaps, were
unavoidable, suficred by newly levied and
insufiioieut forces, discouraged tbe loyaland
gave new hopes to tbe insurgents. Volun-
tary enlistment seemed to cease, and doser-
s commenced. Parties speculated upon
question whether conscription hud not
became necessary to lUi up tho armies of tbe
United Slates.

In this emergency tbe President felt It his
duty to employ with energy tho extraordi-
nary poner which tho Constitution conGdee
to him in cases of insurrection. He called
into the field such mllitjiry and naval forces
authorized by existing laws as seemod nec-
essary. Ho directed measures to prevent
tbe ase of the postoffice for treasonable cor-
respondence. He subjected those going lo
and from foreign countries to a new pass-
port regulation ; and he instituted a block-
ade, suspended tbe habeas corpus in various
places, and caused persons who were repre-
sented to bim as being Gngagod or about to
engage In disloyal ondtre as enable practices
to be arrested by special civil as woll as
mlUtary ageucioa. and detained in military
custody whou necessary, to prevent them
und deter others from such practices. Ex-
aminations of Euoh cases wore Instituted,
and some of tbe persons bo arrested have
been discharged from time to lime, under
circumstances or upon conditions compati-
ble, as was thought, with tbe public safety.
Meantime a favorablooboDge of public opin-
ion bos occurred. Tbe line betiveen loyalty
and disloyalty is plainly defined. Tho whole
structure of tho government is firm and sta-
ble. Apprehensions of pubho danger and
facilities lor treasonable practices have di-
minished with the passions wblch prompted
tbe heedless person to adopt them. Thcin-
lurreelion ifbtlievid lo hare culminated and
lo he deetining.

Tho President. In view of these laots,
and anxious to favor a return lo the normal
course of the administration, as far as ra-

Sards faith and tho publio welfare Till allow,
ireots that all political or state prisoners,
now held in military cuslodi/, be released on
their subscribing a parole tngaging them lo
renderno aid orcomforl to enemiu in hoslili'

gents, or otners whose release at tho present
moment may be deemed Incompatible with
tho publio safety. To all persons who shall
be so released and shall keep their parolo,
tbe President grants an amnesty for onv
past offenses of treason or disloyalty wbian
they may have committed. Extraordinary
arrests will hereafter bo made under the di-
rection of the military authorities olonc.

There has also heon a studied effort around
State Capitol to involve Secretary Stak-
I, for or iigainst Wade's re-election by

takes of the comuion tricks of politicians.
Mr. Wade acted fairly, honorably, towards
Mr. S. on his going into tho Cabinet, and
for this Mr. S. no doubt feels as a gentle-
should, but he has too many things to
look after, ju^t now, to turn his attention to
affairs thut are net under his immediate ad-
visement, and a word kindly spoken should
not be, nor can it justly be tortured

That was a timely letter of Mr, Cravrhb ;
the lesutt has been, we understand, to close
tho Sniitbsoniao Institute against any more
"abolition lectures," This good example
wo hopo will be fallowed by all who have
control of public inslilutlons, or build-
ings of any .sort. Houses raised by the
money ot all, should not be desecrated by
abolition lectures uf Ireaaou against the
Government and tbe peace, order nnd 'ion-
wry of society. Tbo wholo nboJitiLpn doc-
trine is based on theft, out-lawry and
civil commotions , und while one portion of
our people arc in tbo army, offering their
livce to put doivn opposition to the Govern-
ment in the South, let us who lemoin nt
home, do oot par tin putting down as danger-
ous foes lo tbo Constitotion and oounlry. as
those in arms in the South, and much more
cowardly.
We shall engender tho hostility of free
igrocs ond while abolitionists, it is trae,
hut all sound, true, faithful men, will fall io-
ranks. or be crushed by the avolanch-
I is rolling up for tbo work. The merr
tories our armies achieve, now, in other
States, the more vigilant and determinoil
should we bo at home to crush out the trsa-
nidxt.
.Sccretnry of War, Mr. Stah-
TOS, is after the army thieveft with a sharp
itick — President Lincoln, so it is said, has
shut out abolitionism from tho Smithsonian
Institution; now lot us follow up the good
ork in every school district, township,
ciunty. and State in tbo North, and tbua
ilisfy by acts — good works — those in the
South who havo boon misled as lo the pur-
posea of this war. that ail wo desire is to ic-

JoilS WENTivoimi. of Cliicago, latclj
delivered lui eulogy on tho deatU of rjTEniES
A. DouoLAS. in the Illinois Stato Couvea-
tion, from ivhloli wo eitraot tho above mo-
fuorahlo words, wrested from obliviou. The
addMBH will bo found in our paper, as wo
cut it from nn oxobniige.

Wo followed Mr. DouOLAS ihroueh his
whole career, from 1833, when oor notice
was first oltraoted by reading his spccohes
in tho Illinois papers.

%Vo formed bis ocquaintanco in 184ti, at
WnshiDglon, during his services in tho low-
«rHouEoofCoDgrcB3. It was during the me-
morable session of tho " '54.40" controversy,
about our Northwest boundary. All through
tlio ourreney and hank controversies, first
with tho United States Bank and tben witB
tho local brood of paper manufao lories.
Judge DouGiAS over espoused tho cause of
labor, ngninst the vampires that were eating
out the people's aubslnucc. It was a ter-
rific issue anil cost us many n thousand dol-
lars, for wo horo the brunt of tlio Bouk light
in this Slato for many years.

The odds wore, for q long tirno. against
the people aud in favor of the banks, but
their political wickedness and wido spread
rottenness, brought them at last lo submit
to vntiouB modifications and reforms ; but up
to this iioiir they have held a sort of woird
oharm over a large portion of the people,
which tiU now, was never fairly broken.

Tho disouaaion in Congress on the Treas-
ury NoUi bill, has developed a large party,
mho, to sustain their positions on that ques-
tion, show plainly that our whole Stnlo Bank
system has not only beeu a fraud upon the
people, but in direct and positive hostility
b» tJie Constitution of the United States,
nwat of tlio anti-bank Domocrala always
.contended.

!f the lEepublican politicians wer
like the pendulum of a clock, always
(iugirom onocUromo to another, and
testing at a perpendicular, by constitutional
gravity, we might hope that tho "pic

Tho first volume of Tue Cntsis ia draw-
ing to a close, and I novr issue this Pros-
pectus for tho second Volume. T)iG Crisis
or nn oiperiment, but a fiied fact.
Wo cannot fully express our gratitude to
frieuds who bavo bo faithfully atood by
hcough tho fiery ordeal which ne haTO
encountered. Bot wo ore perfectly willing
tlint time shall teat the cnrreetncas of our
nod tbo truths wo hnvo planed upon

Our purpose has not been to publish in-
diacticniniitDly the "ncici" as it came to
bnod, nine-teuths of which ia either pure
fiction, or ao distorted by tho writers for
some ignoblo purpose, that it is little betloi'
than fnlsohood ; but to cull from thia mass
of CQQtrndictions what comports with Iho
fads, and mny bo thus relied upon with some
cottninty by Iho render. "Nor." said ono
of tbo greotest of aiilhors, " will it ho lesH
my duty faithfully to record dianstera min-
gled with triumphs, ondgrcat natiouat crimes
nnd foHies fur more humiliating Ibnn nny
diinster." By thus uinofuUy battling with
falsehood and error, nnd carefully aoleoting
tho impartial truth, The Crisis will there-
by become a valuable record for futuie ref-
erence, Hohnving, atlenat, HOmo npproaohes
to Ihe realities of Iranspiring events, in this
moat extraordinary history of our notion
nad people.

It is our purpose also to contiuuo through
tho second volume, as in tho first, ao clear
n political record of the pnst, hearing upon
tho political aspect of the present, as tho
nature of our work will justify, nnd tho
ilous condition of our country ilcmouds.
■ danger does uot only cocfist of
30 in rebellioQ against the Government
itselfi but wo nte, also, continually sur-
rounded by tho dongeroua schemes of Ihe
Binbitious, tbo blunders of tho ignorant, and
0 wiles of those in our midst who desire,
tbo tumult of the contending olouienta, to
aap tbo very foundation of ao much of our
political structure, not ODVironed by the re-
n arms ; to strike at tho iadepen-
deuco of the people, and destroy the last
hope of " tho poor in this world's goods,"
iih tbe weight of a political dependence.
There is a wide spread effort to erase tho
di.'itinctivo cbninoter of tbo States, by deny-
ing to them that home Stato sovcreigiaty,
yielded to tbo untionul organization.
>iit a blind, of proleoded patriotism,
through which to strike at the people them-
selves. We abnll therefore keep on a correct
id direct line, combatting error wherever
found, and wbilo laboring to save thu nation,
shall nt the same lime Inbor to save tbo
ptople, that wben war's alarms and horrore
wo mny be nblo to return to the arts
of peace, with our individual rights secured,
ith tbe ftecdom of conscience, tho presa,
111 voice, still preserved, with which our-
flves and our ohildron may le-roise tbo
shattered structure of tho present, to a
ill grcator glory and pre-eminence.
Wo ask in this work no cjitrnneoua sup-
port— the putronageof no cliques, combina-
r tho hire of corrupt politicians; but
the free-will offering only, of such as havo
patronage to give, anH patriotism to con-
ceive its value, whether from public func-
or from private citizens. We de-
sire to print n paper for our aubsoriberg,
and oor country, only ; unarmed by power,
nor seduced by the wages of tho corrupt.

Cheered forward by the aucceas wo bavo
met with from the fearless and patriotic for
tbo pnst year — we enter upon the future
with confidenee that our friends, aubaori-
btfrs nnd patrons will not decrease in num-
ber, but those that we altendy hnvo will 61-
ert themselves in our behalf, while new
ones will step forward to aid us in making
tho 2d volume of The Crisis an improve-
ment on the firdt.

Tho fact of the arrest of Q olergynia
AJciandrin, irliile in the not of conducting
tnorDing service, bns been widely publisheil.

C tho public flliould know
thot tb'e arrest nns diaapproved of by Gen-
eral Montgomery, in command at Aloinn-

tho olofgymaii within a few hours. Wo

and we urc glad to observe ibeir frank

Wo bnvft no lawe in .\merico, for t

fenec oE any clorgymau, and however great
an enemy ho may bo to the law or Constitu-
tioUi hia arrest under such oircumslauces as
these would but tend to moke bim a martyr
in the ojus of vaat numbora of persons,
whjla it would bo u gross offense to the ro-
ligious acntitnent of the community and the
Christian [ivorld. The ordinary officers of
tho law would have the doconoy to wait nL
tho chuTohdour, if thoy were intending the
nrrost of u murderer. No ploa of nocessity,
or of cinmple, can justify the present act,
which tho good seuae of the wholo cation
condemns. We trust that all persons and
nawspapera will acquit tho Government of
any rosponaibility for it, leat foreign nations

church. He was in tbo aurplioo, which ho

Gcrj. G. W. CuUum. ChUI of Staff. De-

parlmenl of Missouri :

Siti: I am pleased to nnnouuoe to you
the unconditional surrender, this morning.
of Fort Donelson, with twolvo to fifteen
thousand prisoners, at least forty pieces of
ortillory, and a largo amount of stores,
horses, mules, and othor publio property.

I loft Foct Henry on tho 12th inat.. with

forne of about Gftcon thousand nion, di-
vided into two div'ision*. under command of
MoClornaiid and Gen. Smith. Sis
regiments were sent nround by water tho
day before, convoyed by n gunboat, or rath-
er started ono day later than one of tho gun-
bdufs, nnd, with instructions not to poss it.

Tho troops made tho march in good order,
tbo lend of tbo column nrriviug within two
tho fort nt 13 o'clock M. At this
point tho enemy's pickets were met and
driven in.

Tho fortifications of tho onemy woro from
this point gradually approached and sur-
.dcd witli occasional skirmishing on tho
Tbo following day, owing to tho non-
orrivnl of tho gunboats and reiu force me uts
by wntor. no attack was made, but tho
stment was e.itonded on tbe flanks of
the enemy, and drawn closer to his works

"Ih skirmishing oil dnv,

Tho evening of tho 13lh tbo guuboata and

inforccments arrived. On tho I'lth, a
eallaut attack was mudo by (lag officer
Footo upon tho enemy's works with uia float.
Tho engagement lasted probably ono hour
half, and bid fair to result fuvocabyl
cause of Iho Union, when two unlucky
shots disabled two of tho gunboats so that
they were carriod back by tho current.

Tbo romaiuing two were very muoh dis-
abled also, having received a number o;
heavy shots about the pilot houses and oth-
parts of tho vosaols. After thoao mis
liaps, I concluded to mnko tho investment of
■' ■ Donelson us perfect as possibb

nlly fortify nnd make repairs lo the
gunboats. This plan was frustrated, how-
over, by the oneray making a most vigorout
attack upon our right wing, commanded by
Gen. J. A. McClernand, with a porlior -'
tho force under Gen. L. Wallace. The
emy woro repelled ofter a closely contested
battle of soveial hours, in which our loss
was heavy. Tho officers, and particularly
field officers, suffered out of proporton. '
have not tbe means yet of determining
loss oven approximately, but it cannot full
far short of 1,'200 killed, wounded and miss-
ing. Of the latter, I understand through
Gen. Buokner, about '.iOO wero taken pris-
oners, I shall retain enough of the enemy
to oiobango for them, as thoy we
diately shipped off and not left for recap-
ture. About tho close of this action tbo
aoimunilion in the cartridge boxes gavo out,
which, with tho loss of many of tho field otli
oers. produced great confusion in the ranks
Seeing the onemy did not take advantago of
this fact. I ordered a charge upon tho left-
enemy's right— with the division under Go
C. F. Smith, which was moat brilliantly o

:uted ond gave to our arms full assuraui

Tho battle lasted until dark giving us
isseflsion of part of theit iutrenchments.
An attucit waa ordered from tbe othertlanks
after tho charge by Gen. Smith, which wns
made by tho divisions under Gens. McCler-
nand nnd Wallace, ichich. noiioiihstandinn
Ihc hours of txpofure lo a heavy /ire in the
fare pari of the day, ii-as gallantiy made,
and the enemy further reputied. At tbe
points thus gained, night having come on,
all the troops encamped for thu night, feel-
ing that a complete victory would crowu
"' * labors at an early hour in tho morning.

over— Gonorals MoClernand, Smith and
Wallace— I must do tho justice to say that
each of tbeui were with their commands in
tho midst of danger, and wero always ready
to oieoute all orders, no matter what tbo
eiposuro to tbomselves.

We hope our own Legislature will study
these reaoluliona. We bopo they will ndopt
ihem in spirit, if not in words. Wo know
now, OH well as we know long boforo this
war brofco out, thai it must come, if Ibo rad-
ical Abolilionists of the North continued to
press their iacendiary measures upon the
country ; that tho wild aobomos now being
pressed in Coogroas, if sucooasful. must
lead to a new outbreak in the Border Stales,
and instead of peoco in prospect, tbo real
war has not yet comincnoed.

idu spread disorder which must prevail ;
for being no longern war for " Ihe Union,"
becomes a war for '■ the Slatoa." nud
each and every man. North and Soulb, who
is not a double Irnitor — against tho Union
and ngniust bis State also, will feel called
upon to protect his own castle — his life, bis
iborty and his property.

Against such a stale of nnnrchy and con-
usion, every man not mud with sectional
ago and hungry for ihc blood of his fel-
lowboings, will protest, long, loud, and hear-

111,-,

Kentucky bas taken u position from
which sbo cannot bo driven, and standing
sbo does between Ibo North and the
Soulb, the ultcmpt by Iho Northern Aboli-
ists, would precipitate a new war, ten-
moro terrible than that now in pro-
gross.

Does any ono doubt this? wo can hut

point him lo his oicn decjarotions a year

igo, that none but enemies of tho North

in syrapathy wilb tho South, then predicted

Ihe present war. He was as incredulous to

tb then, as ho is to-day, and having bo

lately falsiGed his ignoranl ossertions, bo

lid be cautious bow ho roponts them,

ho would not a year ago " compromise "

wild notions to save his country, ho

should be wise enough to-day to compro-

iso them to save himself.

Tbeto has been enough of stubborn fot-

ly — of bloodj- pri-judice — of shallow ignor-

co— of impudent lying to satisfy Ibo most

latiale ambition. It Is lime all theso had

end; and sober, manly rcasoQ, such as

made us, should Jntorvono lo save us. —

Without Ibis change our victories aro but

chaff and our saorificea wQI but rise up to

mock us. It requires mote sound intelli-

turn victories lo advantage, tbon

it does to gain them. Tho latter may be

by tbo brilliont acts of physical

but tho former demands the cool, far-seelnc;

ust OS I wns sitting down on yes-
terday lo addrosH you this lottor, I received
The Crisis, in which it is stated that you
had called at tho office of tho Editor, mid
er written by you a year ago, in
whiob it is shown that you bad opposed the
leasing of the Canals, and that your letter
Id appear " nest week.'' I shall look
it with no small iulorcst, lo see what
you have said; nnd I hereby es press my
gratitude that you arc Still left froo to aid
exposing this great wrong lo the Slate —
the people — and the State's creditors, Why
not able to satisfy the Legislature
of Ibe impolicy of this Lease, I may bo
better able to judge after having peroiicd
your production. Tbo tirao was when I
know you bad influence, not only with Leg-
islative bodies, but with your party friends,
ipeoially in private life,
I desire to do you no injustice, of wbich
you will bo aivaro before I am through, and
shall be pleased lo have your services in
id of public justice and Ibe good faith of
tbc Stale, in laying this great wrong open
r the public inspeclion.
Tbo annual laies upon tho people of Ohio,
to pay the iutoresl on the present CaonI
of tbo Stale, is, if I mistake not, $628,-
1384 SJ cents. 1 may err a few cents, but I
think not lo the amount of a dollar. This
btavy tax, fixed "irrevocably" upon
... oppressed peoplo of Ohio. Let the
State authorities fnil to levy this tni, and
thus decUne to puy tho' interest on tho
Bonds, but for ono year — what would bo

p from millions of voices, and be ecb-
ind re-echoed from the farthest East to
the fnrtbost West ?

Who, sir, commenced this breach of
faith/ Wns it tbo people of Ohio? or was
it the Representatives of tbo people, in the
Legislature assembled ? If the Canal rev-
enues were "irrevocably pledged " to the
Stale creditors for tho payment of interest,
by what process of reasoning can the act-
ors in this fraud — thia punic faith, escape
the chorgo of opening Ihe door to further
repudiation! Why were tbo revenues of
the Canals pledged to the payment of the
Stale's interest, ns an inducement to obtain
toons upon State Bonds ? Tho reason is
plain. Should tho Stale, by any accident
or by any design, foil lo lax tho people to
a euffioieot amount to meet tbo interest, or
tho peoplo foil to pay the tax, from aoy
cause, whon levied, the bond-holders could
then fall baok, as the pledged security, up-
on tho Canals themsolves ; and thus, so far
as available, protect themsolves against

ve on almost every day practice

jrt among our raiiroade. When

the interest foils to be paid, tho bond-hold-
having a Ura upon tho road.-t, seize
them, appoint a receiver, and dispose of
the profits of the roads to poy said interest ;
or, as is nUo more frequently the cose, the
bond-holdarfi sell the roads, and become the
owners by purohaw. Now, if tbo peoplo
of Ohio should bccomo too poor U> pay
"' ■" """OS, or elect publio officers for the
purpose of suspending tho collection of
taxes to pay Iho inlorest, would not the
id-hotdors, under tho act of 1825, have
the legal right to toko the Canals and use
them, or own them, in liquidation of the
dobtl

It Is the opinion of Ihe writer Ibat they
would ; and oa jour name, sir, is attached
0 tbo Report I quoted in my last, is this
let yonr opinion also '. la there not dan-
ger, when the peoplo discover that nearly
ono million of taxes aro fastoned upon them
annually, for ten years, with a prospect
that it will lust forever, not clamor for tbo
hond-holdera to take these Canaia cff their
band.s, io port or in whole pay of the debt '.
When ttio peoplo aro told that this nouU
not be just, iDoy will, iu all probahilitji an-

sbnil look Duxiously for your aid to Icaco out
Iho lino of duly in either restoring tbo peo-
plo to their rights, or in Irausfomng these
Canals to the Slate creditors, to whom tboy
aro "irrovooably pledged," nnd thus reduco
Ihe publio burdens lo the amount of their
worth, or give them up as a full consirtern-
tiou for tho debt, and thus squaro tho books,
lo not uiorcned sir, I am only suggesting
sequences which flow from bad nets of

of this — a couutry, drenohod in blood nnd

DecflWAEE CoLNTv. Ohio, /
Pohriinry 27, 1862. S
Dear Colokbl : I thought whilo writing
you on otbor business, I would toll you
nio of tbo reasons wby we think the ne-
gro should bo prohibited from settling iu
io. And first we believe it is a duty wo
e to tho whilo men who are now in Iho
iks of tbe Army, lighting to maintain the
Constitution and Laws to keop their places
for Ihem until they tclurn, nnd not permit
their plncoa lo be filled by niggerd wbUo
they are fighting our battles.

t me illustrate : ,Iim llonolds, bis wife

and four children, woru living in a house

icb ho rented of Mr. John Eaton, when

narbrokeout. The President called

soldiers — Mr. Eaton is a Union man and has

largo farm and much property to see lo,

id can not onlist. Jim is full of patriotism,

id relying on Mr. Eaton that his family

shall be taken caro of. rushes into tbo moks

of tbo Army, for what .' To save tho Gov-

eot nnd tho property of Mr. Eaton —

But

s wife cannot procure wood, clolh-
provieions ; she has to leave Mr.
Eaton's house nnd move home to her poor
old patents, where, by constant labor and
ity, ber health fails ber — children he-
ragged and deslitute. The war goes
in tbo vioioity of the two contondiog
>s society becomes disorganized — tho
slave runs away from bis master, and bav-
ig been made to believe that Ohio is a
iradise for a nigger, of course Ibey come
_3re. Yes, old black Tom lakes tho advan-
tage of tho presence of tbe Army in whiob
Jim Renolds is fighting, and runs away from
his rooster in Kentuoky and comes to Mr.
John Eaton and rents tbo house that Jim's
family left, andoommenees to work for Mr.
Eaton and others, aa Jim use to do. Tho
war finally closes and Jim receives nn hon-
ible dittchargc and returns lo bis native
place. Ho finds bis wife emaaiated and her
constitution broken — bia children ragged
and beggars. He thinks lo better their con-
j:i: — h^ „[]i go to Mr. Eaton aod rent tho

he Ii'ft. Mr. Baton tells him thot ho

has rented tho house to black Tom, who got
his liberty when ha (Jim) was in Ihe army
~n Kentuoky. Thisisnbard stroke on Jim,
itill ho hopes, nnd asks Mr. Eaton if those
lado yet that tboy talked about

before h

t to the

ilbing to do and would Uko to make
and tako some flour for his family.
_aton tells him that Tom has offered to
mako them cheaper Ihua the usual price and
corn, und he lot bim have tho job,
nsks if be has no coru to husk, wood
to chop, or something of tho kind fur him
- 1o; but Mr. Eaton lellabimthat tbe times
hard and himself and Tom will have do
all bis work. Jim returns tired aod hun-
gry to his family ; the sight of his hun-
gry children atnrts him out Lo moko an-
otber effort for work, the neighbors all tell
him tbe Bome story, times are hard, they
had lo biro niggers becaoso tbe nigger
would do moro work, fur the same money
tbuQ the white man could. Jim tells them
that is tbo reason tbat slaveholders bavo
niggers in the South, because they think it
is^eapor than white labor. Jim starts to
see tbo overseers of tho poor without any
very exalted admiration of the results of
tho war, BO far as it bas affeoled free whilo
labor in Ohio, Tho case here deleniated
will be tho case of thousands io Ohio if tho
prohibition of niggers is not attended to.

' The rich man will bocomo more wcolthy
by hiring a cheap class of labor, the labor-
ing while man Will become poorer hecouso
tho number of laborers are inorensml, and
of a cheaper kind. Classes will bo formed
in Ohio, tlio rich wtU constilulo ono olass,
and the poor white man who has lo work
out with tho nigccr will have lo asaooialo
with him. nnd will form tho otbor olixss of

plain peoplo. But ibo hypocritical pbilon-
thropisl will say to prevent a poor negro
from settling in Ohio would bo inliuman nnd
unohrisliou, wo deny tho declaration and
claim Ihai it ia good religion, it is doing by
our poor white neigbbors aa we would that
Ihey should ilo unto OB. Let tho white man
livoregnrdlessofniggetswhowoaronomore
bound lo provide for than wo aro for tho ia-
habitanls of tho Peejo Islands. This ia tho
principle carried out by nil Ibo lender-footed
philanlhropisls in the land. I care not what
abnroh or parly ho belongs to, or what
doclrine ho may preach.

Now for tho proof— hero is Mr. Jenkins,
ocoupios 114 acres of land, and is rich, en-
joys nil tho comforts of life, bia family in-
dulge iu many lusruries. His neighbor Mr.
Noah hosalorgo reapectablo family, they
aro very poor, Mr. Nash served through tho
wnr for tho Union, and now has no pboo
to live ond no land to farm, bnt Mr. Jenkins
will not let him como on tho land ho owns
and build a houso to shelter bia family, nor
work bia land lo procure the neoessarioa of
life for his children, nod why, becnuao Mr.
Jenkins said tho land is his, he bought it
and it is his legal right to say who may
como on to it or oooupy it. Thia is right.
If it is right for Mr. Jcnkioa to say who
may settle on 114 acres of Ihe aurfooo of
Ohio bcoauso bo bought it — may not Ibe
white inbabitnnts of Ohio who bare bought
tbe whole of her surfnoo decide aa to whetner
niggers or monkeys may oooupy it.

IJut some claim that a Legialaturo bos no
right to prevent n while man from dispos-
inc of bis property as it may suit him beat,
and that he may use it as he may please,
let n uicgor live on it or not, as may acorn
best to him. Nowwe deny this, we conccdo
tbe right to our neighbor to use his property
as he may please, provided by so doing, he
does not interfere with the rights of others.

A roan bos no right lo buy a lot nnd Btort
a slaughter-house or lanyard iu Ihe heart
of Columbus, the City Council would abate
bim 03 a nuisance, and rightfully would
tboy do it, becauso ho, by bia business, do-
preoiatea the value of the property of bis
neighbors, ond disturbed ihoir rights.

If Sir. Ingols settles n lot of niggers on
his farm in tne neighborhood of Mr. Sharp,
tbo niggers may bo removed as a nuisance,
because n negro eettlcmont bus a tendancy
to depreciate tbo value of real estate obout
them, add to tho difficulties of kocping up
schools, thoj' debase society by mingling
with thorn, fall up tbe channels of ordinary
labor, increase Insotion for the support of
the poor, and for prosecuting crime, and lii
various other ways it interferes wilb white
mens rights which the Legislature is bound
to protect — consequently iMr. Sharp has a
right to have them removed upon the prin-
ciple of "soif presen-ation."

There ore more than four million slaves

tbo United States — more than sixty thoos-
and have left their mastors iu Missouri, it is
useless to say Ihey will not many of them
1 to Ohio — many of tho Wcatom States
hove already passed laws to provont their
settling iu them, and they will look to this
aa their paradise where they will bo froo
from labor.

Now what would bo tbe poor white man's
condition iu this state of atfaira with thoua-
ands of the wooly beads to compete and aa-
sociate with? The enterprising young
white man would leave Ohio and lubor in a
Stale where niggers could not come. And
this eventually become a Stoto of rich white
aristocrats, and tho dopendont nigger who
would call him master, with perhaps aomo
whites HO poor that thoy oould not got out
of tbe State, and would necessarily have to
work and associate with niggers.

Mr. Editor : — I would liko to ask your
correspondent '■ Country Editor," why it ia
not OS just in principle to put tho blanks of
the Counties out to tbo lowest bidder as
those of tbe Slate ?

Every blank of every description used by
Ihe Slat 0 officors la sold out to the lowoit
bidder. Now, if this isrightand just l«tho
editors and printers at tiiu Capital, lot a
•' Country Editor" answer mo tho questloa
why tho same principle is not right when
applied to the counties ! This is a fair
quoslion and let it be answered oa fairly. —
■Tho one is wrong, or both arc right. When
this is answered I may have more to say. —
I am opposed to all legislation which makes
floah of ono and fowl of another.

thoymay louso rciloctioii, quicken tlie aenBo

ed, would overthrow both oor iiooial ond po-
litical iiiBtitutions.

When n great revolution — a revolution
nhlch abokea Eooioty, ocours, it is very
natural to scorch for its cause ia fomc
ovent wbioh imroodialoly precedes, or ia con-
tomporaueoaa with it. And with regard to
tho great revolution which ia now beloro us.
wo may Bay, that itbiw bnou brought about
by a settled dotor mi nation among a great
party at the North to rid itself of tho aa-
cenuoncy of tbo South, so long maintained
by a combinatiOQ of tho Democratic Party
at tho North with Iho Domoorutic Party at
the South. Or wo moy soy, thot it boa been
occasioned by tbo oitroino uneasiness of
tho men of the South at perceiving the
isceptre of power graduolly slipping from
their bonds, and on the eve of being per-
uanenlly transferred to the North; or,
with alill more reason wo may assert, that
it has lippu occasioned by the joint opera-
tion of both those cnusee. It may well be
supposed, that each scclion perceived that
the shortest and moat direct way to tlie ac-
complishment of its end, tho ddb to aoouiro
nndispuled power, tbo other to retain a hold
upon it, wos to produce an open rupture be-
tween the two ; and Uiat they gradually slid
into the course of behavior which was cal-
culated to bring about that cotastropho.
And tliis xeas the precise period tchcn the dif-
fertnces heticeei the Ixco might, and ihouU
hove been adjusted. As soon as the inten-
tions of the two soctione were fuilv dcvol-
opedi one or the other should hove with-
drawn from the Union : and the section
which remained) in Bhould hove hajJed it ns
a clear indication of u great change in ibii
relotioDB of tho two, as on event in the
regntoT moroh of human affairs. But this
significant warning was without effect ; and
the whole country baa been convulsed be-
yond example, for the wont of a due share
of foteeigbtand pmdence. An open rupture,
it woa conceived, .would not merely oooo-
eion hoetilities between the two regions,
bat it would bring tho two grcot partiea at
tho North iiito direct antagonisoi with each
other, and enable the Kepublican party at
the North to bi'ot down, once for all, tbo in-
ftaenco of its great rival, tbo Demoorafio
party in the Bamo region. Wo may thus
account for tho oitrovogant acts, the auda-
cious usurpations of power, and the flagrant
violations of constilulional liberty, which
wero committed. An open rapture with the
South would afford- a Cimvcnient and ptan-
sible ground for all these oscesses. War,
whether called by that name, or by the name
of rebellion, would be tbo inevilaUo couno-
queoco ; if tho door was abut upon all con-
promise, and tho right of withdiowjog from
the Union woa denied. And to do I'ither
would defeat the great purpose which moa
ia viow— that of croabiog Uio Democratic
parh- nt the North. But tho wur which
would take place would be the most unnat-
ural ffbich has ever o'ccurred iu a country
of highly advanced oivilfMtion ; and it
woald, on that very account, stimulate the
paatfous to sn inordinate degree— it would
on that very account bring the two great
parlies of the North into more direct nnta-
gotdsm with 000 another. Tho dominont
party woold then be oblo to represent its
rival 08 the enemy of ile own country,
whoncvor ie gavo vent to ii borst of gener-
oaa feeling, or endeavored, by persuasion
und urgument. to give a different direolion
to the public councils. It would resort to
an expedient commonly practiced on such
occasions. It irouM atiiM odious names not
only to tho men of tbo South, but the Dem-
ooralio party of the North. It would call
both rcbclB. tmilors and Htceeaiooiat?, and
thus, end BUT or to make compensation for its
enormities, by blackening tbo character of
its own citii:en°. This is nn engine of pow-
er which is always at band, beoause it de-
mands no mental ererton, but only the in
dolgonce of tho passions. In ITW. the
Marijuis of Londsdowno remarked, in the
Uoute of Peers, "the present in'tanco re-
minded him af the procecdiuga in England,
daring the American war ; the most abu-
sive and dogmding terms, rebels, Irollora,
tea., wore then applied to the American peo-
ple," Ho added, "verhapi ikt same tonie-
qutneei may foUiw. ' Thia hateful oi ample
which once kindled tho blood in the veins of
every American, is now followed even to
oiaggoratioui by Americans Ihcmnelves. —
Tho party in power eolifiting the majority,
now converted into o vast moh, in acbomoB
uo matter bow fatal to the North, stigmatize
the minority by oant and degmding terms,
violate oil the forms of law. and the most
aaorod provision of tbc Constitution, in or-
dor to liuiniliato and subdue them. By bo
noting thr-y ouly emlenvor to accomplish

what, from iho bepioning, wat peihips lb
rhief end in view, the nnoihilatlon of an iu
lluence which was forever amidst them, and
forever creating obatnctes to the prosoou-
tion of their sobeines. Those are consid
orations of greet importance, in understand-
ingour history ; for although tlioj do not lay
open tho causes cf the great nocial move
ment they nt least cxnlain tho course of Ibi
politul moviimcnt w&icli is hut a develop
ment of the nooial.

lat. At n very oHrly period tho people of
Now England presintcd a remockabto r-
omple of those atnid, sober, ond roligii
bubits, whioh lio at the bottom of all nat{<
al.osnellasindividuol improvement. Thi
babils cradunlly spread more or leas o'
Ibo whole country, oad have had a dccisi
influence in moulding UiO character of tho
whole popubition. By emigrating in great
ibors to oilier parts of the Union, they
ied them directly to those parts; and
through the more force of example, caused
them to penetrate among people whose
and education were not so strict.
Whoever will take the trouble to eioniino
tho early laws of South Carolina' will per-
ceive Iraoes of that same puritanical spirit
which once existed in New England, and
which has both convulsed, and reformed the
world. But whoever has studied attentive-
ly the progress of society in Now England,
during tho last fort3' years, will perceive
that a very great change has taken place in
tbo manners. Until recently this chooge
ros very gradual, and was only the result
if those large nad expunsivo views, which
havo ever bi-en nttondant upon tho growth
of knowledge, and whioh enlarge the Eoope
feeling, iu tho same proportion ns that
under:; landings, and this effect has
been Increased by the moro intimate ao-
quaintanco with human nature, which a
'de communicutioti with other people has
_ . much CDCournged. Uut during tho last
thirty years tho change in tho manners has
been much more percoptiblo. .Skepticism,
which is so line a discipline to tho mind,
hen it tcaobes us modesty and a distrust
J OUT own strength ; and so pernicious
'hen it make!i us so bold as to defy nil
knowledge, has increased to an alarming ex-
tent. It has not only offeoted the character
of loymen, but hits reoched even the clorgy ;
od has produced a lioentionsnoss of opin-
m, though not yet of manners, closoly re-
semblinc that of the hVeuch clergy previous
to the French Kevolution. De Toquovillo
and Beeumont, CommissioneTS nent by the
government of Pranoe, after the dethrone-
ment of Louis PhiUippo, in order to examine
the Penilontiury system of the United States,
wore struck with the increase of orimo
which had taken place in tho State of Con-
uoclicat. By comparing the oriminal rec-
ords of that State with those of New Jersey
and Maryland, tbuy discovered that not only
bad tbe number of crimes increased in the
former, but tbnt they had inoTeaaed in a
greater portion than in either of the two
lost States. And what was still more ucei-
pectod, the greatest increase was of crimes
against the pereon. They commonicated
the result of their inquiry lo several of the
most intelligent men m thnt State, who de-
clared that Iho information surprised them,
as much aa it did the CommiEsioncrs; but
that there was nn way of contradicting it,
as it wa^ obloiael from tbo moat authentic
id undeniablo aooroe. Nothing is more
fficult and irksome than to fasten onr at-
tention upon the Blruoturo of the very so-
oietv wo live in, und the changea which are
gradually wrought in it. We are 80 fatnil-
■ ed with them in their outward form,
they ore niiiiglcd with suob an infiuilude
of detail, that they eoem to be beneath our
notice, and we even aeqairo a distate for
a study which is tore a few generations
after to eccuriy the minda of tlie greatest
thinkers. No doubt if those persons to
whom the Preach Commiaiioners communi-
cated tho result of their inveetigation, bad
studied attentively tbe phenomena which
'' 'x own society proBonCod, they would
0 fouud u oluo to the great chauge which
taken pbce in it. No doubt Ibis change
n great part, attributable to tho lioen-
sncEs of opinion, whioh has grown uji
og tbo century; for although persons
who commit crime do notoeuupy thcmaelvea
very much with tho reigning opinions of the
day, thsy do so much more than is imngln-
ed ; nt any rate, thoao opinions exert a ailnnt,
hut very appreoinble influence over their
conduct. As to the great bulk of soeioty
those who never commit any-positive offense,
their behavior is powerfully inlluonced by
the opinions of the day. If these ore loose
the oiTect shows itself in u .single generation
in the general tenor of their couduot. Bat
IS I remarked, this e.Tlrcroo freedom of opiu-
on has even reached tho ulergy ; and Will,
n tho end, be na fatal tolhi'ir aolhority uud
influence atf it is already to ihu inuuuera of
people. Wherever tho clergy thrust
thcDiitclves into the arena of politics, and
endeavor, by their harangues, to inQaino
tlie passions of their aadieuces, insleod of
meliorating and assuaging them, it is an in-
contcstible proof that religious doetriue hns
lost its hold npou them ; that it hns dwindled
into insignificance, and tbnt tho decay of
tho religious sentiment among laymen is
hand. One of the must curious,
and, notwilhefanding fhe gravity of tho sub-

i'ect, ono of the most comical symptoma I
inve observed of this change, ia the ambi-
tion dieplayed by feme olernymen of ignor-
ing the name, or appropriate meaning of
the word church, and giving to the building
wb'ch should bu appropriated to the perfor
manco of their high dutiex, some name
which may testify to all the world, the light
opinion which Ibey entertain of religion.
IhuH in ono of our populous cities tho
place of worship of a distioguiKhed preacher
ie known by no other name than that of tbe
Temple, and in another largo city tho build-
ing ho-f been dedicated aa the church of
Humanili/. These are not isolated oiroum-
stimcos Indicative of personol cccentrjcitles.
They are Bi^nificaot signs of the decay of
religious belief, and of the licentiousness of
opinion which has recently grown up. They
tell us diBtinotly as do tho sohlema which
have token place amocg varioas ^ects, on
tho subject of slavery. They remind ns of
that period, doriug the French revolution,
when the "Goddess of Reason" woa en-
throned, and the Qndof Heaven was trampled
onder foot. But tbe icliglDas element Btill
lingers in »al£cient strength among the

population to impart eoi'rgy to the will
z'lal to the feelings : and the cousti^ui'n
the formation of a oharuoler, almost a;
morkable for ILs oddity, aa that of the pt
of Belgium, in whom tho liveliness ol
French character is strangely mingled
tbo sobriety and serious demeanor of the
Dutch. A ■ihrewd New Englander once re-
marked to me that ono of tho peculiarities
of hi3 countrymen consisted in tho power
of oecoroodatiug Ihomselvea lo any society
in which Ihoy might bo thrown ; putting on,
at times, the light and easy manner which is
calculated to gain tbo confidence of mnu-
kiod; and at others, wearing the staid and
sober demeanor, which ejuibles ihcro to pur-
sue steadily and energetically, every nveuue
which might conduct to wealth.

2nd. In a popular revolution nothing is
moro important to, those who coudnot It thon
to faalen upon some dogma or abstroot prin-
ciple, which may give weight and dignity to
(ho general movemeut. For although ab-
Blract principles nro very seldom scisod in
their full import by the bulk of mankind,
they are, on that very account, more Impos-
ing. Their obscurity mngnlGes their im-
portance, whilo at tho same time they al-
ways suffgeit something whioh ia calculated
to fan the passions, and in this way, iiuully,
to master tho understanding. Thus, al the
present time, wo find the cry of anti-alavery
has become the shibboleth of the dominant
party ; notwithstanding a state of servitude
may bo inGnitely better adapted lo the act-
ual condition of the Ethiopian race than ono
of freedom ; that a sudden change from one

lO other would bo more fotal to their
wotl-heing than to thnt of the masters ; and
thataninterfercncewitblhodomostic institu-
tions of other communities, whether iu war
peace, is a total departure from those
jiims which should govern a civilized peo-
ple. It calls to mind that barbaroua period
when tbo Mahommedan nations carried firo
and sword into Christian countries, in order
to enforce obedience lo their peculiar creed.
It is well known that an association, with
eitcnsivo ramiScations, was formed at tho
East, during tho luat summer whose design
is lo proclaim the emancipation of the slaves,
even thoughit should be necesssnry to wade
through n sea of blood in order to execute
it; lliat information of this was communica-
ted to the Cabinet in August; thnt tho Cab-
inet ouly doubled tho policy of such a step ;
and that, although It was supposed that tho

rprlao was stifled, yet it is in full vigor;
large contributions have been mndo iu
furtheranoe of tho aohcmo; that tho Asso-
oiotion haH now received a complete orgoni-

in, and that the delermlnation is, that it
shall be executed, if necessary, in spite of

Government. When wo hear ol such
machinations wo fancy tbnt wo seo Guy
Fnwbes, tho man of blood, ready to apply
tho mulch to the Irnin ho had laid, and glar-
ing with the oyes of tbe basilisk on tho dis-
covery of his plot. My opinion is, that a
proclamation declaring the slaves free would
be Aruluni fulmin ; Uiat it would hove no

i effect than tho declaring all marriagcB

at the South void, or declaring all minors

freed from (he restraint of tfaeur parents. —

But abstraotlons throw such a haze round

mind, that even when we are groping.

fancy that we see with a eupernatural
light. The Federal government uierciaesa
very feeble Influence upon tbe people of tbe
States, compared with that whioh is exer-
Bod by the Slate governments. The last

:ct and iiamedlato influence upon the In-
terests and affeotiona of men, and conse-
quenlly, upon that public opinion which

Sives weight and authority to government.
t was for this reason that some of tho lead-
ing minds in Iho Federal Convention enter-
tained serious doubts whether tho centrifu-
gal force residing In tho system would not
counterbalance tho centripetal and thns des-
troy tbe equilibrium of tho whole. An ex-
perience ct mote than seventy years did not
confirm these feora, for never was govern-
lOut administered with moro promptitude,
isdom and precision, than daring that pe-
riod, unless lliu present revolution is an ex-
ception. But this revolution, nilhough it
may ntford proof to souo minds that the
doubt I have referred lo was well-founded,
by others it moy ho viewed as proving
Sireotly tho oontrnry. However this may
be settled, aa it will bo calmly half a centu-
ry hence, it caunel be doubled, that in eve-
ry thingwhinh relates to the domestic police
of iho Stated, tho Slate govcmments exer-
oiso n uioro duclBivo influence upon all the

ed if tho latter steps entirely beyond the

interfere with the inslituliona uf the Slates,

inconsistent with the christian character,
T'lieao discussions were kept up, and the
norimony increased, until the Churches wore
divided — tho^oniainlainiDg that the rolation
of master nod slave was nnli- christian, with-
drawing commuuiou of fellowship with those
who bold tho contrary. This placed tho
Clmrohes sanotioniug slavery beyond tbo
roach of thp discipline of the Northern
chriatiaos, and benoo no gospel means could
bo used by tbem as they claimed to reform
tho snpposed evil. In this delemma the aid
of IhB dci( poifffT was invoked. But little
progToss had been mado in this dirootiou
until in 1853-4 — during the political dis-
cuaeioni) of tho slavery question as relates
to Territories — when n largo number of
members of Congress, beaded by Senator
COASE, mado a direot appeal to the Clergy
for their intluecoc in favor of tho eiercis't
of the civ'dvoieer ia prohibiting this moral
ovil — and this appeal was responded to by
:}.000 ministers iiv the Northern States, in u
memorial to Congress on the subject This
preoipitaled the great struggle. Tbo
ministers and Churches every where colored
tho political arena as such, and descended
to all the clap-traps of the verriest political
demagogoes. And jost hero let luo call tho

How closely similar ore these opochs in

bad invoked tho civil power to promote rnoral

And that was, to throw a hot firo-brond

And finding somo orrBlocratic spirits in

God created tho negro different from the

attempt to undo the work of the Crealoi
and lo mock at his wisdom.

This system of "slavery." whiob is n

it a sin, a foul blot upon our national char

■■A VISION— Tbo OouioOBd Proirraio oltbo
preiBDt War. sndlu flnU T^rmlnaUon Fore-
toldi tr OSeil Kediir. July *Ui, 1861."

Tbo abuve most ri-markftbU-> vision was
handed u* by an old gculloman with whom
we have had an ncqtuunlancb for the Inst
20 yenrs. Ho was eitromely uervoiia on
reading portions of it to us, and irhon we
QskeJ bim to let ns publish it. he declined.
Wq then pointed out to him tbe couiinaud
in it, by his Guardinn Angel, that ho should
publish it. ho contented on tho condition
that wo would toko out 0. "copy right," na
the command was to publish it !n ft " Book."

Thia wo have done ; wo have secured tbo
copy-right, which we hold only for the
benefit and under the cnliro control of the
Authf r. and shall eomaipuce (he pobliculiou
by Chapters nest wpck.

Wo think oor readers will agree with ua
that it is most estraordinary production of
modeta limes- Tho author is no spiritualist
— knows nothing about the sect — ho is an
old farmer, over 60 years of age, formerly
of Ohio, but for several yonra past a resident
of Missouri. He nas in tbo woods spliting
rails — ullalone, on tho4th of July last, when
this occurred.

Every body knows tbat we are neither a
spiritualist, sensatlonist, nor any thing of
the kind, and publish thia Vision under no
such influoDcesi nor witb^ikny design, except
simply to bring the mind to a Gerioua and
sober reflection upon tho untold evila into
which our country will be precipitated un-
less a now spirit of forbearance, of charity,
of those virtues vfhich make great states-
men and great generals, is iufaeed into eur
people, and especially all who hold posts of
responsibility. With this view, and in thia
spirit, wo publish Ibis Vision, hoping it
may biiog many a jiTiiying-blood-lJi\rsty
church patiiot to his senses, both North and
South.

Tien he might have addressed the g'^nt
public ear ; now he teols, and justly so, that
all, all depend a on the action of one nnju.
and that man J'nESiDEST Lincoln. Tlioro
ia much in this— more in it thou uoy of us
ore wtUiug to admit. How important, there-
fore, that that one man may Uo worthy of
his trust.

Thero is still another article in our paper
—to Bay nothing of our own immtdialc Cor-
respondents—signed "A FoBT Wayne Vo-
ter." Knowing the writer well, his patri-
otism and his ability, we bavo ilitlinz<d &
portion of the paragraph next to tho last,
which speaks Iruuipet'tongucd to tbo Korth-
om "Knights of Treason." Tbo writer ia
well known iu Ohio, and wo only regret that
he did not atlntdi his name to (bo arliole. —
Let oar GcdituIs command tho armies — we

Free Kegrocs in Ohio.

trouble of saying any thing on tho free no-

Oar paper will not only require to bo well
read this week, but well studied. It con-
tains a great number of moat important or-
tioles bearing directly upon tho cbaraotcr
of oor natjooal troubles, and tbe atill greater
question, just now, of tbe character of their

all been tried in posts of public trust aud
not found wanting. A portion of them
should havo appeared earlier in our paper,
but they will bo better understood to-day
than a month ago, because tho spirit against
which they strike is more rife, and more vx-
posed to public view now than at any pre-
vious timo. With each victory of ourarma

The Ohio Legtslniure.

ir State law givers do not seem lo get
along very bri?kly. The Hoose last week
got into a great fit of eieonling the rebel
lenders and so itxprcased themaelves, but
the Senate, less blood thirsty, has not
yet ncleil upon tho House resolution. We
hope they will reod those passed by tbe
Kentucky Legislature before they proceed
farther.

Tbe Senate, or the fosion part of it, be-
came greatly ejcited on tbo Senatorial
question on Friday aftemoou, hot came to

conclusion. Sampson Mason made a
strong speech against tho (onslttuUonaliCv
of adjourned icssions. We have no doubt
that ho speaks tbe intentions of the framers
of tho Constitution, otherwise tho provis-

for biennial -sossiona would havo been a

) deception. Let tho Legislature pro-
an amondnieut for annual sessions and
annual electioua. Wo have no doubt but
that tho people wcmld adopt it.

Both branches adjourned over from Friday
until yesterday ! Make onuual sessious and
our word for it thero would be leas " free "

Wor New$ of ihc IVeck.

We have nothing of any real importance
to lay before our readers Ibis week in re-
gard to the wor. General Banes' division
has moved over tho Potomac and occupies
Harper's Ferry, or at least a part of it.—
Savannah is notyet occupied from the Port
Royal column; and General Burnsidc has
made not important ndvanees into North
Carolina, beyond what has beforo been
noticed, Ho does not ocoupy tho railroad
so as to cut off Che comniunication between

ed. General Shields has been ordered 10
take bis command.

Noshvillo is occupied by our troops, but
we have no reliablo particulars beyoud that
as to General Duel's movements- The
stories about Murfreesboro fire mere imagin-
ings. C'olombus has been evacuated by
tbo Coufederates. but to what point they are
directing their forces to moke onothcr stand

This is about tho amount of tho army
news this week. Tho prisoners taken at
Fort Donelson havo been distributed at
various points. Some thirteen buudrcd
" oSiooTS and men " arc at Cump Chase, near
this city, but few have been able to get ac-
cess to them, though many of Ibem have
acquaintances iu this city.

Wo hope our authorities will treat theso
prisoners just ns wo would desire thom to
treat ours. Let us leave uo complaints to
go South to justify retaliation. If we uro
better Ihon tho Southern people let us show
it by oor acts. Cowards are cruel — brave
men are liberal and just.

Tho long lists of our uofortunate soldiers
who were wounded at I'ort Donelson, nud
published in the St. Louis papers, exhibit a
greater fatality there than we had suppos-

relieve their sufferiugs. Illinois has suffer-
ed terribly.

Enropean News.

The -'offioial" newsfromEurope look lame
enough, and will be construed into peaos

Gagglug Presses.

We have had quite an escitemeut the
past week, in consequence of the Secretary
of War. Mr. Stanton, as it was said, put-
ting the daily papers of Cincinnati. Chi-
cago and Cleveland in charge of tbo Police.

Now tbe whole of thia matter amounts to
merely this: Theso papers, through hired
corros pendents, who follow tbe camps, were
in the habit of publishing tho movements
of the army in advanee ; a mere matter of
money spcculalion to sell their papers.

It was to stop this that the order was giv-
en, but iu no way to interfere with any le-
gitimate freedom of the press, or in any
way coutrol the free expression of any j>o-
lilicai opinions that the editors might wish
to advance, No editor with the least re-
gard for that common self-rospect nhieh
should guidu all men, would be gailty of
prying round the Headquarters of Com-
manding Generals, and publishing in news-
papers army orders, which are always mat-
ters of seoresy. in the face of an enemy;
aud they have uo reason to complain for
being snubbed for so doing.

It was left for Secretary Seward, nud he
only, lo outrage the liberty of the press, by
destroying printing oDicca, and incarcern-
tlog editors in jail, for tbe expression of po-
litical soutimcnts merely, differing from bis
own. Thero ia no parallel, whatever, in the
two cases, and tboy should uot be so con-
sidered. Mr. Stanton, on coming into
office, liberated all these jiulitieal prisunera.
but gnvc editors to understand, that while
they were at liberty to support whatuver
poUUcal party they pleased, and should
have nil the guarantees of tbo Constitution
end lawa to protect them in their rights, yet
it was not a part of their duty to command
armies, and convey to the enemy the secret
order of battle, before those who were to
do tbo fighting knew it themselves, Tbia
is all, OS we underslaud it, there was of thia
muss aiaouf; the ■' leading Dallies."

Some editors never could learn the ditTcr-

between publishing testimony in u
trial, before, or after, tho case had gone to

infirma what our able correspondent "Fo-

subjects.

Tho Judge's san was the Attorney for tbe

and gave judgment without calling the case

Election in Lani^aster.

The election for Mayor of the City of
Lancaster, held on Tuesday last, resulted in
tho choice of George Sanderson, Esq.. the
present incumbent, nnd editor of tbe Inlrl-
ligtncer, by a majority of 84 votes, over
Dr. Cnssidy, tho " Cilixens-Umon " candi-
dnte. This result is a great Demoerntio
victory, in view of Iho means resorted to lo
prevent Ihe re-election of Mr. Snndprsou.
The Itopublicacs, in accordance with Ihe
policy they have pursued for some time, re-
tused to uominalo a cnndidatfl of their oirn.
but induced Dr. Cussidy, a Democrat nod n
gentleman of great poraonol popularity, to
become a candidate. By this means it was
expected that enough Democratic votes
would bo drawn from Sanderson to accom-
plish bis defeat. It was urged against him
that ho was a " Brookinridgo editor." and
conaoquontly disloyal, nnd Iho usual attempt
was made to array all loyal citizens against
him. But notwithstanding the odds opposed
to tbcm, tho noble Democracy of Lancualer
"-'- stood firm, and gained n signal victory

From this date wo record a new era in our fioau-

This depreciates Ihe voluo of private debts, ond

the genius of Governments and financier* who

Jieau Hickman's Kitchen Committee is

notion of tho oootemptuous Chevnher Wy-
koff, and is now engaged with tbo floral
Wntts. Watts used to bo tho gardener of
tho White Uouse, and Beau Hioknmn ex-
pects to got a great deal of infornintion
from him. Wc hope be may. What Walts
don't know about flowers and kilobcn L-nr-

Naturallyonough, tho Crat questions Beau
Hickman proposed to Watts woco abont the
flowers used at tbe White House ball. It
is amusing lo observe how iutorested and
curious these long-haired, uninvited uboli-
tlonists ICO about that ball, and how ani-
■ i:-.!v Ihey endeavor toglenn all tho partic-
• ill regard to it. "I^o committee smell-

Wo are told in Scripture that great
things sometimes como of a grain of mus-

dently applies this principle to tlowcr and

:weon turnips and treason, rudishoH and re-
bellion, salad and Stali> secrets, is as clear
I amber to the iuquiring mind of the in-
•Btigating Hickman. To him camelias

Hickman's committea waste.i the public

two Email lumps of some substance, of i
liloish yollDW color. Ho had dreadful sua
picion^ that they wero paison. and confided
as much to Amelia Loiet, another servant,

Second Volume of The Crisis,

COLtnoBUS, OHIO - WEEKLY.

Tho first volume of Tun Crisis ia draw-
ine to n close, and I now iasuo this PnoB-
PECTUBforthe second Volume. TnECRISIR
IB uo longer an ouperimcnt, but a fiicd fact.
Wo cannot fully express our gratitude to
our friends who have eo faithfiiUy stood by
us through tho fiery ordeal which wo have
encountered. But wo are perfcolly ■nilling
that timo shall test tho correctness of oor
course and Iho truths wo have placed upon
record.

Out purpose has not been to publish in-
diacrimiuately the " neics" as it camo to
band, nine-tenths of which is either pure
fiotiou, or an distorted by the writers for
Bomo ignoble purpose, that it ia little better
than falsehood; but to cull from Ihie mass
of contradictions what comports with the
facts, and may bothus rolled upon with somo
certainty by the reader. "Nor,"eoid ono
of the greatoat of authors, " will it bo loss
my duty faithfully to record disasters min-
gled with triumpba, and great national ciimes
and follies far more humiliating than uny
diiastor." Dy thus manfully battling with
falsehood and error, and carefully seleoting
the iinportinl truth, Tub Crisis will tboro-
by become a valuable record for future ref-
erence, so having, at least, Homo npprOBohes
to tbe realities of transpiring events, in this
most eitrnordinary history of our nation
and people.

It is our purpose also to continue through
the second volume, as in tbe first, so olcnr
i political record of the past, beating upon
the political aspect of tho present, as tlio
oature of our work will justify, and tho
perilous condition of our country demands.
Our danger does not only consist of
those iu rebellion against the Government
itself; but no ore, also, continually sur-
rounded by tbe dangerous sohemes of tbo
ambitious, tho blunders of tho ignorant, and
the wiles of those in our midst who desire,
in tho tumult of the contending elements, to
sBp th" very foundation of so much of our
political structure, not environed by the to-
belliouH in arms ; to strike at the indepen-
dence of tho people, ond destroy tho last
hope of " the poor in thia world's goods,"
with the weight of a political dependence.
There is a wide spread effort lo erase the
distinctive character of tbo States, by deny-
ing to thetn that home State sovereignty,
never yielded to tbe national organization.
It ia hut a blind, of pretended pulriolism,
through which to strike at the people them-
selves. Wcflhalltbereforekeep on a correct
and direct lino, combatting error wherever
found, und while laboring lo save tho nation,
we shall at tho same time labor to save th*-
pcopU, that when war's alarms and horrorB
are over, we may be able to return to ths arts
of peace, with our individual rights secured,
niitb tho freedom of conscience, tho press,
and voice, still presented, with which our-
selves aud our children may ro-roise thoi
shattered structure of the present, to s
still greater glory and pro-eminen';e.

Wo asL in thia work uo extranr»>HS. sup-
port— the patronagoof no cliques, cowtxiaar-
tions nor tbo hire of corcopt politicians; but
the freo-will offeriDf; only, of such as have

tienories or from private citizens. Wo de-
sire to prmt a paper for our subsoribors,
and our country, only ; nnawcd by power,
nor seduced by the wages of the corrupt.

Cheered forward by the success wo btno
met with from the fearless nnd patriotic for
tbe pa.*t year— wc enter upon tho future
with confidence that our friends, .tubscn-
btira nnd pntronj will not decrease Jn nutn-

slavery were auOicient to produce rebellion, Iho
CouBtitution would iiuver bare been formed 1 or,

Potato Tines.

Aooording to the Mosaachuaelts Plough-
man, potnio vines should bo thrown into
henps nnd humed, for the most plausible
theory lu rognrd to tho potato rot is, that it
is caused by it very minute inseot, not visi-
bloto tbo oye. By burning the vinos, thore-
fore, wo mny oalob millions of Ihom (ind
■end them where they eamo from — for the
. .fit fl nro of but very Utile value us manure,
ri'l lb.urfl.shes are better than their stems
;[ I'd in tbe soil. A very reasonable sup-
:'i.'~itiaQ in regard to Ibo rot is, that it is
:susrd by n poiaonouH littln inaccl, too
uinutu to be readily discorned, yet numor-
lUB enouffh lo onuee dostruclion to tbat
oot which is ulmnst tho sole food of miU-
ons of our raoe. If, an we conjooturo, a
imall poisonoud insect is tbe cause, we can
lutdonk and subdue him by Gro and wutor.
Let tbo vinos have tbo lfri> ; and let tho
tubers, at tbe time of plnnting, bo dipped
*ulo potash water. In kill the little knits that

Tlie people ot the States now coufuderat-
cd becanto convinced that tho Government
of the United States bad fallon into tho
hands of n sectional majority, who would
provert the mo.st sacred of all trusts to tho
destruction of the rights which it was
pledged to protect. They believed that to
romaiu longer iu tho Union would subject
them lo a continuanco of a disparaging dis-
crimination, aubmiesioQ to which would be
inconsistont with their welfare, and intoler-
n proud people. Tboy therefore
determined to sever its bonds and establish
new confederacy for themselves.
Tho eiperiment instituted by our Ilovolu-
lionary r'athere, of a voluntary union of
sovereign States for purposes speoiGod in a
solemn compact, bad beenperverted by those
who. feeling power and forgetting right, were
dotarmined lo respect no law but their own
will. Tbo government had ceased to answer
tbe ends for which it wns ordained and es-
tnbhsbed. To aave ourselves from a ravol-
which, in its siteut but rapid progress,
was about lo place us undor the despotism
bers, and to pi-esorve in spirit, n.4
in form, a iysteni of govornmunt wo
believed lo be peculiarly fitted to our con-
dition, nod full of promise for mankind, we
determined to make n new assooiation, com-
posed of States homogeneous in Intereit, in
policy and in feeling.

commisiiuaers to tbe
United States to propose a fair and amicable
ittloraont of nil questions of public debt

the Goverment at Washington, denying out
gbt to self-governmout, refused evi'U U
listen to any proposals for a peaceful Sep-
Noting wus then lefi lo ua but to
prenuro for war.

The first year In our history has been ibt
most eventful in the annals of this continent
A new government has been established, and
its macuinery put in operation
eicoeding sovoii hundred thousand square
miles. The grent principles upon which w<
hove been willing to hazard everything thu
ia dear to man have made conquests for ui
which could never bavo been achieved by
tho sword. Our oonfedcraoy has grown from

tu speak icUli uiulffled voi^e, qonntel her
duttny trilh Vie Soutli- Our peoplo have
rallioil with uuoiampleil unanimity to the
support of the great principles of '''"

tionul govomnicnt, with firm resolve to per-
petuate by urms the rigbls which they could
■ peacefully secure. A million of men,
} estimated, are now standing in hostile
array, and waging war along a frontier of

" auds of miles. Battles have been

„ t, sieges have been conducted, und,
although the contest is not ended, and tho
tide fur tho moment is against us, the final
"-suit in our favor is not doubtful.

Tlio period is uenr at band irhen om-fues
uit linJi under the immense load of debt
which they have incurred, a debt which in
their ofTort to subjugata us has already at-
tained such fearful dimensions as wilt sub-
ject them to hurthons whioh must continue
to oppress them for generations to come.
^^ ". too, bavo bad our trials nnd diflkul-
Tbnt wc nro lo esonpo them in future
is not lo bo hoped. It wns to ho ospeoted
when wc entered upon tbis war IbatU would
oiposB our people to saorificea nnd cost
them much, both of oionoy and blood, llut
-e know tho value of tlic object for which
e sinigglod, nnd the nature of tho war In
hich wo were engaged. Nothing could
bo so bad as failure, nud any sacrilice would
be cheap ns tbo price of success iu suob a
ronleat.

But the picture has its ligbU us welt ns
its shadows. Tbis grent strife bus nwakon-
od in the people the highest omotioua nud
qualities of tbo human soul. It is cultiva-
ting feelings of patriotism, virtue and cour-
age. Instances of self-sacrlliae and of
generous devotion to the noble cause for
' "eh wo arc contending, ore rife Ihrough-
tlie land. Never has a. people evinced
ore dolennined spirit than that now aui-
nialiiig meu, women and ohildren iu every
part of our country. Upon tbo first call
Ibe men ll^ to arms, and wives and mothers
send Ibctr husbands and sons to battio witb-
rmur of regrot.

. perhaps, in the ordination of Prov-
idence that we wore to l>e taught Ibo value
liberties by tho price which wo pay
for them,
Tbo recollection of this great contest
ith all its common traditions of glory, of
sacriflco and of blood, will be Ibe bond of
'larmony and enduring alfeotion among the
leoplo, producing unity in policy, fraternity
a sentiment and joint effort in war.

Nor have tho material eaorificea of tho
past year boon inude without some corres-
ponding benefits. If the acquiescence of
loreigu nations in a pretended bloctade has
deprived us of our commerce wilb them, it
is last making us a self-supporting and In-
dependent people. The blockade, it' cffeolual
and permanent, could only serve to divert
our industry from tho production of articles
of osport, and employ it in supplying coin-
modilies for domestic use.

[t Is n satisfaction that wo have muintaiud

too great to ntlempt aggression ; and never
ihurc a pi'oplo whuao interests and priu-
oiples commitli'd them sn fully lo a peace-
ful policy as tbojoof tho Confederate States.
Uy the obaroDler of their productions they
too deeply interested in foreign coin-
cc wantonly lo disturb it, War of con-
quest they onniioC wage, because the Cou-
stilution of their Conloderaoy admits of no
coerced association. Civil war lliero can-
jo betncen Slates bold togolhor by
their volition only. This rule of voluntary
tinlioD, which cannot fail to be conser-
vative, by Boouring just and impartial gov-
ernment at home, does not diminish the se-
curity of tbo obligations by which the Con-
fedetnle States may be bound to foreign na-
tions. In proof of this, it is lobe Tcmem-
bered that, at Ibe first moraenf of asierlin};
Ihcir right of secession, these Stales inapostii
a settlement on the basis of a common lia-
biliti/ for the abtigations of the General
Ooi'crnment.

Fellow citizens, after the struggles of
icoH bad consecrated the right of the En-
jTisbman to conHtitutional representative
government, our colonial ancestors wore
forced to vindicate that birthright by an
appeal to arms. Success crowned Iheir ef-
forts, and tboy provided for their posterity
peaceful remedy against future oggtesH-

Tho tyranny of an unbridled majority,
tbe most odious and least responsible form of
despotism, has denied us both tbe right and
the remedy. Therefore wo are in arms lo
renew sucb saoKSces as our fathers made
to tbe holy cause of constitutional liberty.
At tho darkest hour of our struggle tlio
isiooal gives place tu tho pormanent
guvorumont. After a series of luccesses
and viclories, which covered our urms leilh
glory, lee have recently met tcith serious dis-
asters. But iu tho hearts of a people re-
solved to bo freo. these disasters tend but

stimulate to increased resistanco.

To show ourselves worthy of tbe ioherii-

co bequeathed to us by the patriots of iho
Revolution, we musl emulate ihat heroic
devotion whieh made reverse lu them but
the crucible io which ihcir patriotism was
refined.

With confidence in tbo wisdom and vir-
,uo of those who will shore with mo the ro-
jponsibllity, and aid me in the conduct of
public affairs; securely relying on tbe pa-
triotism and courage of tho people, of which
the present war has furnished so many ex-
amples. I deeply feel the weight nf ihe re-
sponsibiblioB I now, with unaffected diffi-
dence, am about to assume ; und fully real-

Yar T1>o Crisis.

To Sakdbi. PoitBER, Ksq— i'ir: I bav<
read your lottor. in THE Cbisis of the 511:
inst. I have read it, though hastily. It isnol
as complete and direct as I wos lead to ex-
pent. Do you not wriggle and halt in seve-
ral sentences I The tenor of your letter i;
against a lease, I admit, but still you give
it your preference to a satf. As Ihe ques.
tion of Bale was not before the Legislature,
but tho lease was, I am justified in making
tho remark that you were not as dire
your hostility as one who had admired you
for your oharaoter, would have oxpoeted, I
have copied from your deliberately expres
ed opinion in your report of 1835, whi
you still wanted money for canal purpose
You got it, Bir, and all your previous friends
would havo supposed that you would on all
and every ocoosion sustain your posi
and vindicate tbe faith of the Stale nnd tho
honor of tho people.

I admit that tbo Canals could uol be Gold
by the State, under the .act of 1825, ojoept
by the acquiescence of the bond-boldori
for they are " irrevocably pledged " for thoi
benefit; but how much less could they b
leasod ? If sold, the pric-; for Iheto would
bo turned over to the bond-holders to iiqui.
dale the cnual debt, so far as the aniounl
would go. To ibis ihey could not make
any serious objeotion, an it would only bo
selling the security. It would reduce the
debt, and thus reduce tbe iuii.rest and tbe
luxes on tho people, leaving the tai-payor.'^
of the Statu better able to pay tho interest
on tho balance.

This would bo the natural course of pro-
cedurn by uny private individual, who do-
sired lo manage bis affairs prudently and
safely. But such has been tho disposition,
of late years, to rob, plunder and oppress
tbe people — as though tliey wero made for
poiiilodJ managers to rideover rough shod, at
their leLsure, pieoBuro nod convcnionoo —
that no thought is ever modo of the people

Before elections wehear much said of Iho

afford a remarkable esample of this, Poli-

Bides, a vulgar side, whicb deals only with
empirical facts, and a profound side, which,'
joining to obsorvotion a prolific nnd organi-
zing laooUy, shapes the whole into system.
It follows, that political cjuestions may be
opprooohed by all orders ol mind, from the
highest to tho lowest; by the thoroughly
disciplined, as well as by tbo half diaciplinei]
or the undiaoiplinod mind. Every one feelb
sufficient conSdBnoo in himself to discuss
that topic, and even to set up as teachers of
mankind in a department ut knowledge tho
most difficult and complex of any other. —
Another consequence is. tbat nearly all the

OB iut«lleotual distinction, in " tho applause

who bestow favor, and yet, from tbo neces-

- strong passion for tbo cultivation of declon^-
story talents, which has taken possession of
the American mind, during tiie last thlrn'
years. It hos seized upon all ranks and a|l
ages, upon the young, the middle aged, and
t£e old. All the bigberfacultiesof themin'd
have been ncgteoted for the soke of this gli

And this produces a general feeling
tasiness and envy among tho last. —
This feeling is inoreasod instead of being
diminished, by the struggle now become uni-
versal for tho nci]uisition of property. As
this effort is unsucoessful in the great ma-
jority of instances it produces osullon, rest-
less disposition, which manifests itself in
ill-feeling towards the more lortunato class.
Every one who bus eitonded his observation
beyond bis neighborhood, or State, must bo
aware of this fact. I venture to soy tbat
everywhere, from Boston to Missouri, this

prosperity adds to the influence and power
which they wield. They thus frequently
placo themselves at tho bead of the popular
movement, become reckless as to tho conse-
qnences and are the chief victims of it. Wo
may soy tbat the career of wealth hns bi
too rapid; it has run aheod of the progress
of knowledge. And this has produced other
consequences which are very injurious in
oluiionory limes ; or which may be said
bo one of tho causes of the revolution. —
The easy and tranquil life to which so much
prosperity is highly favornble, instead of
conteotmeut and happiness, produces ennui.

red the hardships and privations, to which
they were exposed in eiile, not only with

oiercise of the will, and asort of iTon'tcate

Thus a milit&iy spirit, absolutely unpar^-
leled in the history of civilized societies, has
sprung up in a day; towering above all
other powers, absorbing all other interests,
and ohanging, for the time being, all the
usages and habits of the American people.
We nro not surprised when we bear of tbt
wonderf al military activity in France, when
ever there is on opening for tbo display of
it; for in thot country the means of^ living
are so cramped in consequence of its oihu-
boront population, and the minute division
of the .soil, that great multitudes are clad
to lay bold of an opportunity which wilF af-
ford tkem a certain, although it may be a
scanty sobsisience. In Franco, the culti-
vable loed ifl about one hundred and nine
millions of acres; and the whole number o(
proprielora 23,000,000 ; less, on an average,
than five nores to each proprietor. And of
.'1,547,000 proprietors, there are only li.0S4

IB a day, more than one half
proprietors hove not always oven i
bread to subsist on. In Ohio everything
prosBuls a more happy and eibiliraling pros,
pect. There is noi only a very equal divis.
of the soil, but, what is of more impor-
DC, the allotment to the vast majority of
proprietors is amply sufRcient to supply all
tho comforts of life. And yet these singu-
lar advanlogcs have been undervalued ; an
irresistible current seems to drive every out
into an entirely new walk ot life, ineompati
blc with the molotenouce of ibose industri-
ous habits which have hitherto constituted
our strength. Instead of tho image of pros-
perity, which used to greet us everywhere,
wo see all around us marks of ruin and de-
cay ; our commerce a wreck, our imports
dwindled to one third, our manufacturing
estahliebmenU crippled, nnd as o necessary
consequence agricultural industry otreateu.
Everywhere the hand of power seems to bo

■if contractors and speculators who monop-

And thus, through the operotion of so
any adverse and malignant causes have
penury and want for tho first lime been in-
Iroi^uced into the United Slates, a country
which, above oil others, seemed to be tho
iboaen abode of comfort and prosperity,
t is net surprising, therefore, when so many
jrcumstances bave conspired either to pro-
duce a predeliotion for military pursuits, or
to force into them, tbat the ranks of the
army should be filled wilb almost incredible
alacrity- Tho Earl of EUesmere, who visit-
d tho United Slates, a few yeors ago, on
lis return to England declared in the House
of Lords, thot " if he were asked what no-
lo globe was tho most warlike, he
would answer tho United States. " He
formed his opinion from the esceediiigly
martial appearance of tho uniform com-
the large cities, from tho enthuai-
whicb volunteers enlisted during
the Mexican war, and from the Inroads into
Canada and Cuba. He did not iniiuiro into
the cause of this phenomenon but only
stated tho foot. But it is obvious that the
passions long pent up by a period of unex-
' ' 'rauquility, hove, like a mighty
onlinod by a powerful dyke, sud-
denly burst forth, threatening to sweep
everything in their course. And what com-
pensation havo we for this wonderful social
revolution ; what redeeming qualities aro to
bo found in o state of uproar and confusion
which can be set over ogainst the manifold
id undeniable odvantoges of peace ? War
does sometimes bring out great qualities ;
and, by the innumerable araiotions which it
brings to the door of private famihes fre-
quently prodncos patience, resignation nnd
humility ; oil of which tend to foster the
ild and gentler qiinlitios of our nature,
d to correct the proud, diadoinful oud
bitter feelings wbich'beforo existed, I verily
believe thai the battle of Waterloo, whicb

Ot a foreign war; but a frightful
civil war; and, therefore, calculated lo per-
petuate a rancoroua feeling not only be-
the North and the South, but between
o great parties at the North. It is a
ro^lty hard to reconcile wilb our
highly advanced civilization, even nfter
making allowance for oil the causes which
■" ' Che foundation of it. In n material

of view it has inHicted a more deadly

blow upon ourselves than upon the Seceding
States. It is like a man scuttling a ship on
board of whicb both he and his enemy are,
in order that, rather thon his enemy should
live, both may go to the bottom together-
It baa been calculoted that the number of
persons who con, without detriment to the
State, bo spared from the pursuits ot peace;
from agriculture, commerce and manufac-
tures, in order to fill tbo ranks of the army,
does not amount to more toon the one-hun-
dreth port of the whole populalioo. This
bos recently imposed n strong check upon
the prosecution of those long wors which
formerly desolated Europe. Industry
powerful antagonist of war ; and it has
quired an Eiscendaocy in Europe since
peace of Paris, in 1815, that all the w

short ones. But in six months we
ceeded the proportion of oni
hundred, by one-fourth. This, joined
increasing dearness of tho necessaries of
life, will enhance the price of wages, until
at length the whole field of industry is e(
contracted as to lessen tho demand for la-
bor, and to drive into tbo army great multi.
tudes who would never have gone there
The consequence Is enormous, oppressive
toiallon ; ut the very time when iho re-
from which the taxes should bo
e dried up. We are now only
the first stages of the revolution ; and yet
what numbers have been consigned "
orty ; whot an appalling list of bankri . ..
exceeding all which have taken place during
the preceding forty years; what unspoak-
able afflictions, of one kind or other, the
greater port of which will never be revealed,
have been endured. The party in power
declnrea that it is lite Union Party, when it
nrefacedly, the subjugation party; thai
the loyal aud conservative paity, wher
I the only aunarchiot party which hu:
reared its head in the country ; that il
« patriotic party when it has shivered,
ith a thunderbolt Irom pandemonium,
the noble fabric ot our prosperity.

There has been an egregious raisculoula-
lion OS lo Ibo duration of this contest.
From its commencement it was evident U.
every cue of tolerable foresight andjudg-
inenc, that it might last live, ten or fifteen
jciirs ; and ibat then it would bo terminated,
not by aubjectioi), but by treaty. Tho ino-
mcui that this probability was seized the
contest should hnve been abandoned ,
it may have been with Infinite credit, and
advantage to ourselves. A mere doubt
lo the propriety ond feasibility of a giv
plan is often sufficient, in ihecemmouuffiii

Mr. VALLANDIGHAM said :
Mr. Speakeh: I was just waiting for an
opportunity to cull tho attention of the
House to that stotemtnt myself, having re-
ived it from somo unknown source a mo-
ment ago- I do not know, of course, what
o just now of the gentleman from'
Pennsylvania may be, nor do I care. My
purpose thon was just what it is now, to
give a plain, direct, emphatic contradiction
a flat denial to the Infamous statement
id insinuation contained in tho newspaper
paragraph just read. I never wrote a letter
-" '' on any political subjects, least of

10 question of secession, to tho
Baltimore South, or to any other paper, or
ny man south of Mason and Dixon's
since this revolt begon — never ; nod 1
defy Iho production of it. It la false, in-
famous, scandalous ; and it ia beyond en-
durance, too, tbat a man's reputation shall
the meroy of every scavenger em-
ployed to visit Iho hannts of vice in a great
ity, 0 mere local editor of an irresponsible
ewspaper, who may choose to parade be-
fore tho country false and malicious libels
like this. I avail myself of this opportuni-
say that I enter into no defense, and
shall enter into none, until some letter shall
bo produced here which 1 have written, or
authorized to be written, referring to
bleeding Dixie," or making any sugges-
on ■' how tbo Yonkeea might bo defeated."
If any such aro in existence. I pronounce
them here and now, utter and impudent
forgeries. I havo said that 1 enter upon no
defense. 1 deny that it Is the duty or the
■gbt of nny member to rise here and call
. ir iavealigalion founded upon statements
like this ; and I only regret that I did not
' ve tho opportunity to denounce this re-
ct before the chairman of tho Committee
Judiciary rose, and in this formal manner
called the attention of tho House to it—
laelfthe accuser nnd the judge. Sir, I
e been for five years a member of this
use, and I never rose to a personal ex-
planation but once, and that tu correct a
report of the proceedings of the House, I
have always considered such mere personal
explanations nnd controversies with the
press,as unbecoming the dignity of the hoase^
Nevertheless. I did intend to make this
tho first esception in my cougrussional
career, and to say — and 1 wish my words
eportcd. not only at tho desk here offici-
Ily, but in the gallery — that I denounce in
.dvonce this foul and infamous statement,
that I have been in treasonable, or even
suspicious correspondence wilb anyone In
thot State— loyal though it ia in the Union
— or in any other State, or have uttered
one sentiment inconsistent with my duty,
not only aa u member of this House, but as
a citizen ■.■( the United Stales— one who
has taken a solemn oalh to support the
Conslitutieu, and who, thank God, bos
never tainted that oath In thought, or word,
or deed. I have had the right, and have
exercised it. and as God liveth and my soul
livelh. and as He Is my judge. I will oier-
oise it Blill in this House, oud out of it. of
vindicating tbe rights of the Americon citi-
zen; and beyond tbat I hare never gone.
My sentiments will be found in tho records
of the House, except as I havo made tbem
public otherwise, and they will be found no
where else. There, sir, is their sole repos-
itory. And forseeing more than a year ego,
but espeoiolly in tbe early part of Decem-
ber, 1860, the magnitude and true cboroctcr
of the revolution or rebellion into whicb
this country was about to be plunged, I then
resolved not to write, although your own
mails still carried tbe letters, nor have I
written, one solitary syllabi ■ or lino— as to
tbe Gulf StHtea months even before secess-
ion began— to any one residing in a scceed-
ed State. And yet the gentleman nvoJIs
himself now of this paragraph, to give
dignity and importonce to charges of the
falsest and most infamous character. Had
tho letter been produced; had the charg(
come in any tangible or authentic shape
bad any editor of any respectable news
paper, oven indorsed the ocousation am
made it specific, there might have been somi
apology; but tho gentleman kno.vs wel
tbat this base insinuation was placed in th<
loool columns of a vile newspaper, put
thero by some person who bad never seen
any auoh letter. Sir. I meet thia first spec-
ifice charge of disloyally, made responsibly
here — I meet it at the very threshold, as br
cornea a man and a Ilepresentntive- by a
omphalic but contemptuous denial. Th
ia iluo to the House ; il is due lo myself.

Mr- UIOH(UlDSON. I hope the genlb
man from Pennsylvania will olow mo to make
a single remark-
Mr. HICKMAN. Corlaiuly.
air. RICHAItDSOX. .Mr. Speaker, I
want lo bear nothing about disloyalty
this side of tho House while there Is a ol
of member.s here upon tho other side of the
House who have declared that they will vole
for no propositions to corry on the war un^
leas It is prosecuted in a particular line, unc
for tho obolition of slavery- The'l woalc
subvert the Constitution and tbe Govern.
ment, and I denounce tbem as traitors, and
tboy ought to be brought lo trial, coudem-
" n, aud eiooutiun.

. HICKMAN. Mr. Speaker, tho mo-
which aotnated me iu producing Ibo
resolution ought not lo bo doubted. Tho
cTiorgo contained in the orticlo in
qnestiou is made against ihc geutleman from
Uhio, a member of this House. Even a
suspicion, a mere suspicion, would_ justify
such an invesligotion as this resolution con-
tomplates. Bnl tho gentleman from Ohio,
as well as other members upon this floor,
knows that the suspicions which havo ei-
ialod against him— I do not soy whether
justly or unjustly- have been numerous,
nnd io oirculolion for a long time post. It
is tbe daty of this House to purgo itself of
unworlhy members. I do nut assert whether
the gentleman from Ohio occupies properly
or improperly bis scat upon this floor. By
offering this resolution I do not prrjudgo

1 should deem it my solemn duty t

■he investigation which ia hero suggested.
lut, sir, this charge does not come in a
-ery questionablo shape. It appcai-s aa ao
iricinal article in the Ballimoro Clipper,
indis therefore presumed to be editorial, or
it least under the supervision of ihe editor,
t, to nil appearances, emanates from a re-

Bponsiblo source.
But, sir, I suggest further, tbat the sup-

E cession of tho newspapers in question, the
allimore South, and tho seiruro of Us
1 of publication, was made under tbo
direct authority of the Government, nnd it
to be presumed that tho eft'ecti i>f (bo

Government or of the agents of the Gov-
ent, and, therefore, Iho iuformalioQ
communicated in this paper must have oomo
through the Govorniueut or the agents ef
Ihe Government. It Is responsible in its
origin, as for as we con judge. Now, sir. 1
refer tbe gentleman from Ohio, aa my on-
erto tbesuggestion that I wnsnot justified
offering this resolution under the circum-
stances, to page Gi) of the lost edition of
Iho Manual. The first paragraph of sec-
tion thirteen, headed " Examination of Wit-

" Comuioa fiiaie is a good ground for tho Hauio

This, sir. is more than common fnmo 1
repeat that it ia. so far os it appears, a di-
rect obatge by the editor of a reaponsibk'

me to tell him that my foot bas not pressed
tho soil of Kentucky since the 1 0th day of
July, 1852, wbon, as a member of a commit-
leo appointed by the common council of tbe
city where I reaidc. I foliowei tho remains
of llial great and noble man, truo patriot
and Uniou man, Heucy Clay, to tbeir last
resting-place. I bavs paitafcon of no din-
ner thero or ol5ewhetu, of a political obar-
QCtof, nor Jid I over atland any Bteckin-
ridgo meeting at Baltimore or elaewbere, at
any timo, Thia ia my onsnor to that, tbe
only Bpecification. And yet tho gontieman
dares attempt to support that falsehood,
wbiob I bear denounce- os such, by alluding
to guapiciona which hafo been created aUa
set aliont IbrouKbouttbe wbolo country, not
merely against me. but against hundreds
and ihouBonda of others, in wboae veins
runs blood as patriotic andloynl as over flow-
ed »iuco tbe world began. I toll tbe nen-
tleman that, iu years past, I bavo boarahU
loyalty to tbo Union questioned. I bavo
known of tbinga wbicb would have jastiGcd

which he baa attempted to give dignity — in

quiry into nis purpose lo disrupt tbe Union
by the doctriued which he has held aud tho
opinions which be has esprcBssed. And yet
opinions and sentiments uttered here, ore
■' tbo head and front of my offending." It
bos " this oitent, no more."

And, sir, I ropbod some time ago, lo two
otberd which I doubt not the gentleman
would hnvG dragged now out of iho mir(
and slough into which they have Mlou. bui
tbat they wore answered wbon Ihrnst Into

bad once uttv red tbo absurd declaration that
ibe soldiery of the North und West should
pass over my dead body before they should
invodo tbo Eoutbern States. I denied it
Ibon, and will not repent tho denial now.

Nor need I refer again lo the other charge
tbnt I had lettered, in debate here or clac-
wbere, tbe sentiment that I preferred peace
lo tbo Union ; I have heretofore inot that
charge with a prompt and emphatic contra-
diotion, and no evidence bas been found to
eostain it. Referring to tbat and other

livered on this floor in tho oscrciso of my
constitutional right as a member of this
House, on tho lOlb of July last. I defy him
— Ihurl the defiance into his teeth— to point
to one ainglo disloyal sentiment or sentcncQ
in it. 1 proceeded to say. further, on tho
7tb of last month :

"I do ueitber retract ODO sen tlineat tbat Ihnic

And am I now to be told, that because of

AM THAT MAN ; ond yet ho darea to demand
that I shall be brought up before the s
ibuual of tho Juaioiary Committee — tho

Sir, 1 burl the insinuation. Bring forward

something — and you wJU wait long — gome-
thiug which I havo wntten, or something 1
have said, tbat would indicate anything in
my boaom whioh he who loves his country
ought not to read or hear. In every senti-
ment that I have oiprcssed, in every vole
that I have given, in my whole public life,
itaide tbi^ House before I was a member

here, I have had but one motive, ond that
vas tho rent, aubslnutlal, potmaoent good

Snant breath of partisan suspicion und
ander, what would have been bia record, la
tho volumes of your reports, and tho Con-
gressional Glibi, going down lo hia children
after him > But. sir, it is not in the power
of tbe gentleman to tarniah tbe honor of
my name, or to blast tho fair fame aud
character for loyalty which I bavo earned,
dearly earned with labor and patience aud
faith, from tbe beginning uf my public ca-
reer. From my boyhood, at ult 'times ond
iu every place, I havo never looked to any-
thing but Ibo permanent, solid, and real in-
terests of my country.

Beyond this, Mr. Speaker. I doeui it un-
neoesaary to oitond what I bavo to suy.
I(would not have said a word hut that I knoir
this committee will find uolhiug, and that
they will bo obliged, therefore, to report —
nmojorltyof them cheerfully, I du uot not
Ibot nothing esists lo justify any churge
suspicion such aslho member from Penn-
sylvania has aoggested hero to-day, I
ail myself of tbe occasion thus forced up-
I me, to repel this foul und alanderuus as-
,ull upon my loyalty, promptly, earnestly,
indignantly, yea, scornfully, and upon the
very threshold. Sir, I do uot choose to df
lay week after week until your pnrtisa
press Bball have eouuded tbo alarm ; and
till on organization Eball have been effected
for the purpose of dragooning two-thirds of
this House into an outrage upon tho rights
f one of the Rep res en I a lives of the people,
'hioh is without example except in tbo
rordt of times. I meet it and burl it back
defiantly horc

Why. sir, suppose that course which tho

member from Pennsylvania now proposet .

had been pursued in many cases which

uld name in ycnrs past; suppose that

had been the standard of accusation,

the foul and infectious gleanings of on an-
onymous wretch who earns a precarioua
subsiateneo by feeding tho local columns of
a pestilent newspaper, and while it is yet
wet from tbe press, hurry it. reeking with
falsehood, into Ibis. House, and seek to dig-
ify it with an importance demanding the
conaidoralionof thehousoandof thocountry.
, let tbe member from Pennsylvania go
Icballengo tho inquiry, unworthy of
notice as tbe charge is, but I scorn the
spirit which has provokedit. Let it go on.
Mr. HICKMAN then replied briefly;
and in the course of his remarks said ;

As the gentleman has called upon me. I
will answer further. Does be know of a
camp in Kentucky having been called by
bis name—that dialoyol men there called
their camp Camp Vallandigham ? That
wouldnotindioatclhat id Kentucky tboy re-
garded him as aman loyal to tho fedora I Union.
Mr. VALLANDIGHAM. Is there nota
town and it nioy be a comp, too, in Ken-
tucky by the name of Hickmau? (I^aughtot.J
Mr. HICKJIAN. Thank God, disloyal
men havo never called one of their camps by
my name. Thero ore a great many Ilick'
mans in Kentucky, hut I have not tbo plea-

tho government and the people of the Con-
federate Slates. Aa the New Orleans Villa

armies for several months past must give
way for more onerRelio aggression ond foro-
■ isboatilitios. Thomarvolouscredulityof
high officials as to the brief duration of
. . war — tbe declining roaouroea' and ear-
nestness of tbo enemy, und Ibat disastrous
infutuiition of foreign intervention, havo
inflicted upon our uause sevoro disasters.
They may prove blessings, if tbey produce
their proper effects of arousing our people
to tho true revolutionary fervor and energy.
In this wo may learn, oven from Iho en-
emy, who, in a cause of unprovoked nggrcB-

by still mora aerioua disasters and robufia.

Our poOplo have not yet regarded with
sufEcient seriousnosa the cause for which
they are fighting. No people were over
engaged in a more serioua slrugglo. It is
emphatically a combat for life or death. It
diffurs from most of the modern revolution-
ary struggles, where merely politioal rights
and changes of govemmenla wero involved.
Of tbis cburaoter was tho revolution oi
1770. That was a struggle for Ibo oxclu

tho main, well-intentioned

d from every Southern mind. Tho bem-
ficial institution upon which the South has
built and throogh which it has con-
tributed greatly to the wealth of the world,
con never survive tho conquest of those
Stales by the Northern vandals, llow di-
vided soever tbey may bavo been ou thia
question before the war, andin its firststngee,
tbey are united now. The President nnd
nil tbeir chiefs proclaim the forfeiture of nil
the properly of rebela. The obiefs of Iheir
invading armies have these inslruelions to
carry out thia policy. Thoy bavo thus far
dune so. Their success, whether ncbiovod
by armies or our subjugation, will leave our
beautiful South n hunting wildenieaa.

Wo must, thoreforo, fight or perish—
figbt to tbe last man and tbe last gnn. Let
ua study and imitate tho devotion and aelf-
sacrifice of tbo only people of modern times
who havo boon involved iu ft revolutionary
atugglo simitar to our own. Wo refer lo
that of tho Greeks in 1820. Tboso gallant
people fought for their religion, their lives,
and tboBo of other fnmilioa. Tho brutal
Turk left them no altarnativo hut victory or
death. No prisoners vrere taken. Nocnp-
tured cities wero leftatnnding. Tbo lovoly
isles of Greece wero swept with tiro and
sword, and pyramids of skulls marked the
aitoa of once nourishing towns. Those
awful eonaoquences of defeat nerved the
valor of tbo Greeks to deeds of immortal
heroism. But oigbt hundred thousand of
them bold at bay and inBictcd many a torri-
blo disaster and disgrace upon the arms of
a powerful nation of thirty millions of peo-
ple.

For five yeara thia meroiloss wnr wa;-
maintained, until tbe whole country was a
moss of smoking ruing. At last the sym-
pathies of tho Christian world woro aroused
in bebatf of so gallant and devoted a peojOo,
and a timely intimation of the great powers
of Europe saved Greece from the nltenir^-
tivo which her heroism then determined lo

tunotoly, wo need no auch intervention, hu:
wo do need a like dovolion and splritof aelf-
aacrificc. The issnea between us and our
barbarous foes are to bo serioua : tbe con-
sequences of a defeat mnst ho equally die-
aalrous; the shame of tho ignominy, anil
degradation of Yankee rolo over this brav,.-
and enlightened people, would ho over more
crushing und debasing than that of tbt
Turk over the Greek. Ijct us then emulate
tbe valor and devotion of that gallant race,
and make this war of independence na illue-
trious ua that which eieiled Che enthusiasm
of tbe whole world.

COL. MeiiAry ; Is it not tho oouclosiou
of all right thinking men, that the condition
of tbo country requires the honest avowal
by tbo Lsecutiveof its policy; aotbuttbi'
soldier may have whereon to rest, aad
strength to aid him in the day of battle, ia
knowing be is fighting for bis coontry and
her liberties. That tbe Army may have
the prayers of such as will only be bearil
by Uim who regardeUi truth.

In such case, why would it not bo the
best way of securing thia, for the people lo
unite (in tbis one demand) their voices by
petition to th" Eiecutive! and. nay, the
country mast know whether we are fightinf;
for negroes or (be liberties of while men.

Iho garrison was compelled to retreat to the

up in time to aid the two frigates. Sho was
followed by the St. Lawrence, and from ne-
cessity engaged tbo rebel ¥058015 at the dis-

tho Point that botli were conHidorably Oam-
agcd, but these statonients ore bused on

tance of eight miles.

The Mcrriinao was uls't boliored agruunil.
When the Baltimore boat left, sbc lay a
mile distant from thoMinnesota, mnking no
attempt to molest her. After the last gun
was tired from tbo Minnesota, persons de-
clare they saw a denso volume of vapor rise
from the Meriimac, indicating an esploaion
of eoDie Eort. It is not known that this is
no, but it is believed she was aground. It
was tho intention of tho Minnesolntorun in
close quartern to avoid tho iron prow of the
Merrimac. and carry herby boarding. The
Merrimao did not seem inclined to give her
iin opportnuity. As tho Baltimore boat left
Old Point at eight o'clock, alio met tho Er-
ricBOD. Tbo steamer Monitor is going in.
FonTBEES MoMROE, March 9. — Tho
Monitor arrived at 10 o'clock last night,
and immediately went to the protection of
the MinuoBota agroond bolow Newport
News.

At 7 L.'cloclt the Merriiaac, Yorktown and
.lamestown and several togs went towards
the Minnesota and opened fire. Tha Moni-
tor met them and opened fire, when the en-
emy's vessels retired, eicepting the Morri-
mac. Thete two icon clad veBsels fought
from eight o'clock till noon, part of the
time touehbg each other. The Morrimao
retreated.

Tho Monitor was oommanded by Lieut.
WordtD, and was handled with great skill,
(usisled by Chief Engineer Stimors. The
Minnesota was somewhat injured, but kept
lip a oonliuaons fire.

The Monitor is uninjored and ready for
lino! her uttaek.

WASmNQTON, March 9.— Gen. McClol-
ion has received diapstches from Gen. Wool,
'iated sii o'clock this evening, confirming
Iho above, and also stating that the Mil
!^ota had got off, and that the Merrimac
drawn off in a sinking condition, t«wcd by
the Jamestown, Yorktown and other hoata,
towards Norfolk, probably to t;et hir in the
dry dock.

A dispatch was also received by the Sec-
rotary of the N'avy from AaaiBtaiit Secreta-
ry Poi, saying, in addition to the above,
that the Merrimac rotreated, but it was im-
poseiblo to say whether eho wna injured or
not. Lieut. Werden, commander of the
Monitor, was injured by the cement from the
pilot-house being driven into his eyes —
probably not seriously.

Goo. Hooker reports all tbo enemy's but-
teries In ffout of bis lino abandoned and the
Sins spiked — some valuable pieces among
em. This virtaally opens tho Potomac

Fortress Ho."* ROE, March 10.— With the

DBsistance of tho steamer Spaulding tho

Minnesota has beon got off. and sho is now

1 her way hero. She has received numor-

is shots, but no serious damage.

Tho CoDgreaa is supposed to have lost

■or 100 men, including but ono officer.

The escaped crews of the Cumberlund and

Iho Congress have arrived here.

Tho Monitor has come up to tho eipec-
toliono that were formed of her, and has
li herself impregnable to heavy shot at
oloso quarters. Sho behaved remarkably
ivell on her liassago from New York, and
although the aea oovorcd htt decks com-
pletely at times, her speed did not seem to
be at all diminished. To bei presence hero
may bo atlribntod the safety of tlio Min-
nesota and other vessels in port, and final
disabling of the Aterrimac, which had pro-
"ously been proof against everything.
Capt. Wcrdon. ofi'the Monitor, was wooad-
I iu tho head while he was looking out of
the wheel house. No other accident of any
kind occurred to t't\e bnltery or crow.

We have no accurate list of the killed nnd
wounded.

WAaillsflTOS. March (i. — The President
i-dny transmitted to Congress tbo folloi
essag- :

d Houic of Ilciirc-

F<Uou) C'illMni ••/ the

lenlatices :

I recommend the odoption of a joint

utiou by yourhouorablo bodies which shall
bo ^ubatuntially as follows :

Rtsohci. That the United States ought
.'O-opeiute with any State which may
adopt a gradual abolishment of slavery,
giving to such State pecuniary aid to be
used by soch State, in Its discretion, lo
compensatB for tho inconvem'onces, poblic
aud private, produced by such chaugo of
syaiem." If the proposition contained '"
the resolution does not meet the appro
of Congress and tho country, there is '
end, but if it does command such approval,
1 deem it of importance that the Slates and
people, immediately intercated, should be at
one- distinctly notified of the fact, so l'
they may begin to consider whether to
cept or reject it. The Federal Governmeot
lid find its highest interest in soch
iroaa one of the moat efficient me
of self-prosorvalion. The leaders of
, listing insurrection entertain the hope
that tho Government will ultimately bo
* acknowledge tho indopendence of
some part of tho disaffected region, and
that ail tho slave States North of such
parts will then say. the Union for which wi
have struggled being already gone, wo nov
.chooee to go with them. To deprive them
of this hope, substantially ends the rebellion,
lud the initiation of emaucipatiun complete-
ly deprives them of it. As to all tbo States
initiating it, tho point is not that hU tho
States, tolerating slavery, would, very soon.
■' at all, initiate emancipation, but that,

hile tiie offur is equally made lo all, tho
moat Northern sbsil, by such iniliulion.
make it certain to tho more Southern ; that
in no event shall tho former join tho latlei
in their propoaed Confoderacy. I sny iniii.
ation, bucBuao in my judgment gradual, ani
not sudden, emancipation is belter for nil.
Iu tho mcrefinancialor pecuniary view, ony
mocaher of Congress, with the census tables
and the Treasury reports before bim, can
rendily see for himself how very soon the
current cipenditure of the war would pur-
chase nt n fair valuation all tho slaves Id
any named State. Such a proposition on
the part of tbo General Government sets up
no claim or right by Federal authority to
interforc with slavery within State limits,
referring, as it does, the absolute control of
the sabject iu each case to the State and itf
people immediately interested. It is pro-
poaed as a matter of perfect free choice with
them. In tho annual mesaage last Decern
her, ] thought fit to say that the Union
must bo preserved, and hence all indispeii-
sablo means must bo employed. I Enid this,
not hastily, but doliberately.

War has been, and continues to be, an
indispensahto means to this end. A prac-
tical ru-ncknonlcdgiuent of tho National an-
tbority would at ouoe ceuae. If, however,
rosisianco continuea, the war must also con-
tinue, and it la impossible to foresee all the
incidents which may follow, Hiicli as may
seem indi^pensiblo, or may obviously prom-
ise great efficiency towards I'nding tbo
^Icdggle, must und will come, The propo-
•■'.jiiU now (iiiide, though no offer only, I
: '|ii' it may he oaluL-mud no offense to
v-iH>therlhe pecuniary condition lendi
would not be of moro valuo to tho States and
private persons concerned, thi
Gtitution and property in it in the present
aspect of aCraira. While it is true that the
adoption of the proposed resolution would
be merely initiatory and not within itself a

E radical measure, it is recommended in the
ope that it would sooner lead to important
results. In full view of my great responsi-
bility to my God and my country, I earust-
ly beg tbo attention ot Congress aud the
poopio to tbn subject.

CHAPTER I.

[PBF.FATORV SCENE.)

1 foresee that many who will tend tb(
truly wonderful things, which are contoinei
in this little book, will look upon il as a pro
duotion of fancy, or originating in a. disor
dered mind. Others will rend its nages
with muoh interest and eurpriae, and be in-
clined to believo many of its truths- While
others will read it with dehght. as to it<
truth, and in sorrow as to its final fulfill-
ment; and receive it underatandingly, ani
give it full credence; and govora their lives
and conduct accordingly. I do most sol
enmly aver, that 1 both saw aud heard tho
things here written; not in any sleeping,
dreaming, or aomnambulio condition; hut
In a perfect, wakeful state, both of body
and spirit; not. howBTer, with my natural
eyes and bearing, but with tbo eyes and
«afa of my spirit, which were wondetfullj-
opened, so that I could more plainly
hear, than I could with my

latural faoul-

,v endeavor to give a faithful ro-
liQt was shown me :
m tho 4lh day of July. 1S61,
in tho State of Missouri, in the Uuited
States, when and where iheao truly wonder-
ful things were mude known to mo. I had
been, many days previous, seriously rcfloct-
ing upon the distracted condition of our
country, and was very ansious lo know what
would be the final result of nil these dlBi-
eulties ; and whether we should escape tho
miseries of a national war ; and in what
manner tbo day would be celebrated; or
had our people become so caroleea and for-
getful, ad to disregard Ibe blessings of lib-
erty which had boen bequeathed to us by
ont fatbcTs '. These, and many auoh rotlec-
tions bad occupied my mind for several
days. I finally came to the conclusion that
tho 'Uh day of July would ne.cr ha cele-
brated by the American people. Jly mind,
at this thoughl. becaniosad and gloomy.- I
Bought to be alone, and wopl. With theao
gloomy refiectious resting upon my mind.
time passed nwoy i and the inoruiug. (to
me) of thatinemorabloday, came. Tbo sun
shone forth in all hia beauty nud splendor.
The animal cieationaround me, seemed to bo
Iiutny, and many wore feediog upon thi
hms ud plains near mo; and tho bird:
were sweetly singing in the branches of iho
trees. All aeomed to ho happy in pursuing
ibe instincts of their nature, iind fullilling
tho design of the Great Creator. Man was
tbo only being who hud traiisgreijsed and
broken the great law of hi» bfiug; and
man alone was unhappy, disccinluuted, and
miserable. I left my divelliug and lelired,
oJonu, to my lahur ; still in deep and auleuin
rclli'ctiun upuii [bu distracted condition of
my native land; aiill desiring to know what
would bo tho ulliinato end of all tho discord
and division which pervaded the laud.

It was :ibout tho tenth hour of tho day,
whilst I was making rails, the sun wos shiu-
in" in nil bis splendor, and niy mind eu-
gj^cd ia reflection, that I beard a sound as
of distant thunder.. Tho sound seemed to
dio away in tho dislnnco. I immediately
becomo enveloped in darkueas: and the
liEtt of tho natural world gradually began
to rocedo from before my eyes, until in a
short lime all was dorkncs-'*- And when
entire dnrknesa from tbo outer world had
token place. 1 Immediately saw a ray
light within mo which gradually increased,
JjrItAitet and brighter, until it bocnmo ton-
fold mom brilliant than tho natural sun,
which had just been hidden from uiy view.
Tho thunder which I had heard as «t a dis-
tance, began to sound louder and louder,
until tho tfurlh trembled beneath me. as
(hough it bad been produced by a fearful
and terrible earthquake. I become greatly
alarmed, and wondered at tho aight, and tho
bearing of these things ; and tliought that
I was moil certainly dying,
entering into Ibe spirit '

REKIARK!) OF illlt. KE:%nV,

On tlie Resolution in tiio Ohio Senate, te-
qucatljie °ur RepreaeiitaUves, and iiv
Btructlng our Senators, in Coueiess. ic
Vote for the Logai Tender Clause in tlic
Bill Authorizing tha Issue of Treaauiy
No tea.

I cannot ,ien the propriety of pfi«*ing the
resolution naw before this body. It
to niu we have gono far enough, iu
when wo hare allowed tho Banks to lock up
tho coin iu their vaults, and make their pa-
ler n legal tender- But we are asked to gi
I'urther. and veto upon a resolution approv
ing a measure upon which it has long been
settled wo hove no constitutional authority
Tor our action; we aro asked lo aay we will
ignore what tho best conatilntloual lawyers,
on both sidoa of the house havo over claim-
ed, to-wit; Ihat Cotigrtsi has nn potetf to
akc ant/lhing a Ic/^ai Itndc'' bul gold and
Ivtr. it is sought by the authors of these
rsolotious to instruct our Senators in Con-
gress, and re<]ue.>*t our Representatives to iie
That which the beat constitutional lawyori
of our land have ever claimed Congress had
right lo do. I profor, sir, if Congress
desiro lo ignore the Constitution in thia ro-
spect. that they alone bo responsible to the
eople for so doing. I would nuthuvothein,
ir, shield themselves behind instructions
rbich we may send.

If thisworoa now question, tho plea made
by its friends, of " military ueceflsilj","
might suffice; but such is not the faol- —
Wo have before us tho opinions of such men
as Clay. Judge Story, Madi.ion, and Alei-
derHomiitou, tho latter of whom may bo
id to bo the father of tho paper money
system in tbis country. Calhoun. Jackson,
and Daniel Webster, the acknowledged ei-
pounders of our constitution, uniting, and
with one voice c:(olBiming that Congress has
no right, under tho Constitution of tho Uni-
ted States, to do, what we propose by these
resolutions to instruct our ileprcseutotives
in Congress to do. Admitting that Con-
haa the power to put in circulation
promises lo pay, called "Treasury
,'' which I very much doubt, (and in
this opinion I am sustained by the best ju-
" lur land,) it does seem lo me thot
the power to make these notes u legal ten-
der for the payment of debts is aol
of the doubtful conatilutional questions. —
Upon this subject, as long ago as l':'J'2, Mr.
Webster said :

Coogress can olono coin nioaoy. CoDcrcaa
alone Hi: the ralueof forciga cuia. No Slate
coiD money, Ko Stale can fii tbo value ol
foreign coin. No State, rrof ctcn Consrtaa Ustif,
make aoftlilni; a tendirr but giildaad "
laymeul ol debU."

iogeutlemon upou thia floor will qui
Mr. Webster's devotion to tho paper money
system.

Again, iu ISO'S, in his speech upon the
ipccie circular, ho says :

" Congreii bus regulated the value u( foreign
olne, U111I stiil regulates Ibcir value. The le^at
ender, Ibererero, tbo coatlitutiooal itaadarJ of
aluo, 19 eitahlliibed aud cannot bu orurlbruun,"

And again, in the same speech, ho says:
" 1 am certainly of tbe opiaioo, then, tbat gold
and sUver, at ratvB fixed by Cougrcsa constituto
the legal standard of tatuu in this cauutry; and
that neither Congresj nor aoy State box authonly
tocalabli.''h any other ataadurd or lo fli»|ilneo tbis."
It seems to ine, eir, it any one queatiou
con be settled by weight of authority this

Mr. Webster aUo warns us of Ibe disna-

trous results following the course, wo by
these resolutions desiro our liopreientalivcs
in Congress to take upon the passage of Ibo
Bill making theao Treasury notes a legal
tender now pending before tho assembled
wi«dom of vliat there is Uft of thia nation
at Washington. Ho suys :

h. mil be denounced as traitors to out
country.

1 bad supposed. Mr. President, that the
object in view, in calling the large army iu
to the field which wo iiowhave, aud expend-
ing throo and a half millions o day in sup-
porting the same, waa for the purpose of
preaerving tbo oonstilulion nnd Iowa of our
country : out wo ore told upon tbis floor
that we must not stand upon constitulional
technicalities. Tbe arguments oi these
gentlemen appear to be. that in order to
maintain the couatltulion and enforce the
laws, we at tho North must ropudioto both.
This argument, Mr. President, used ol tho
North, hs it has been by niauy, has been ihe
iminodiato oauae of Iho present civil war.
It has enabled designing politicians of the
South to ioflamo tbo minds of good and loy-
al men against the North. It has done mora
to nid tho cause of secession in the South,
and unite the people of that section against
the Government, than all Ibo Jeff- Davisoi
the country. I, sir. nm opposed to plac-
» tho loyal people of thia country aide by
.Je with Ihoso who have rebelled against
the constitution and the laws, who now seek
. destroy both, and by ao doing rob thi
people of the liberlios bequeathed to them
by their rovolutiouary forefathers. Shall
wo euiulote their eiample? We do so, in
fact, if wo aro not governed iu all our ao-
I by tho fundamental law of tbe land,
lid the people both North and South
take tbo constitution for their guide, and
upon nil doubtful question submit to tho de-
cisions of the Supromo Court of our coun-
try, this rebelUou would instantly cpiisc
and wo would again be a free, happy, uni-
ted, aud prosperous nation-

I buliove, sir, the North is fighliug for th(
perpetuity of tbe Union and the Couatilution
as our fathers made them. and when we
sight of Ihia object wo lose sight of all tbi
worth fighting for. We aro told here thai
" sufficient onto tha day is tho evil thereof.
It is true, I lliiok, sir. wh had better di:
pose of ihe evil of civil war before we iin. |
pose upon Ihe people the others, "pron,i- -
to pay" alega! lender. Tbepeoploha^> "
times past repudiated these promt»L':t '

ngain the first opportunity which tliny may
have to speak upon this subject, Had this
issue been made before the people last fall,
wo never should have heard of these reaolu-
tious in this body tbis winter.

It does not auflice for gentlemen, to tiM
me that the United Stales ate pledged to tho
redemption of these notes- Such was the
case with government ahiu-plaatera In 177(i,
aud I fear the people will too soon learn tbe
fact tbat the present issue, like those of tbo
past, '' ntu but tho suhslanco of tbiugshoped

the impartial truth, Thd Crisis will there-
by become a valuable record for futuro rcf-
s so having, al least, some opproaohes
to tho realities of tronapiring events, in this
most eitraordinary bistiiry of our nation
and people.

purpose also to continue through
the second volume, as iu tho first, so clear
a political record of the past, hearing upon
tho political aspect of the present, as tho
nature of our wotk will Justify, and tho
perilous condition of our country demands,
danger does not only consist of
those in rebellion against tho Government
itself; but wo are, also, continually sur-
rounded by the dangerous schemes of tbo
ambitious, the blunders of the ignorant, and
Ihe wiles of those in our midst who desire,
in the tumult of tho contending etcmenls, to
sap the very foundation of so much of our
politico] structure, not environed by tho re-
bellious in arms; to strike at the indepen-
dence of the people, and destroy the lost
hope of "the poor in this world's goods,''
wilh the weight of a polilicai dependence.
There is a wide spread effort to oraso tbe
distinctive character of the Slates, by deny-
ing to them that homo State sovereignty,
never yielded to tbo national orgoniiation.
It ia but n blind, of pretended patriotism,
through which (o etrike at the people them-
selves. Wo sboU therefore keep on a correct
and direct line, combatting error wherever
found, and while laboring to save the nalion,
we shall at tbo same time labor to save the
p'.opU, that wben war's nlarma and horrors
arc over, we may be able to return to tho aria
of peace, with our individual rights securedi
with tbe freedom of conscience, the press,
and voice, siill preserved, with which our-
selves and our children may re-raise tho
sbatlcred struclure of tbe present, to a
still greater glory and pre-eminence.

We nsk in tbisworfc no estraneous sup-
port—the patronage of no clitjues. combina-
tions nor tho hire of corrupt politicians; but
the frte-will offering only, of such ns hnTe
patronage to give, ond patriotism to eoil-

tionaries or from private citizens. Wo de-
sire to print n paper for our aubsoribers,
and our country, only ; unawcd by power,
nor seduced by the wages of f bo corrupt.

Cheered forward by the success we have
mot with from the fearless and patriotic for
tbe past year— we enter upon the future
with confidence that our friends, subscrj-
bi-'rs nnd patrons will not decrease in num-
ber, but tboso tbot wo alreody have will ei-

Saddening Words-
There nro many euphonious words in tho
English longunge — moro perhaps than in

,auy modem tongue, uscept thcltaliiin — of
whiob tbo sound it! £0 harmonious with the
sense, that they charm at onco the car and
tho heart. Tbo vocnl body, bo to speak,
with which tbo sentiment is clothed, eeems
3s apptopriato to it as a lovely countenance
totbopossessorof nbcuiitiful tnind. Homo,
Love, Slumber, Cotesa. Welcome, belong
to this category ; but it is in corlain pa-
thetio Bxproesions that tho agreement of
£ound and eentimcDt strikes us as most per-
fect. Poo said that Noverraoro is tho most
mournful of all words ; Byron gavo tho same
tnelancboly pre-eminence to Farowell ; and
Dr. Johnson thought that of nil phrases
"Tho Last" was Uio most touching. The
last book — tho laft $igb— ^Iho last of earth
— these are solomn nod affecting ntternn-
CCfl ; but wo think with a late writer, that
there is more real pathos in the word Gone,
than in any otherin the language. To use
a Spanish, or rather iMooriiib metaphor, it
is " full of tears." How it oppals the scnsa
and desolates the heart of tbo weeping
watcher when spoken, ever so softly, in the
■chamber of death ? Gone! It cuts off all
hope. It vibrates ou the uir liko tho tone
of a passing bell. Gone — forever I What
fonr syllables in uuylungungc comprehend
so much of misery and desolation nnd woe 1
Gono! says tbo lone mother, when Ibe dark
angel has borno away the lost latnb of lier
flock, "aud lam loft alone — alone!" Gone!
shrickd tho distracted widow, as sbo reads
tho name of her heart's idol ou the death-
scroll of war. "Oh, husband, that 1 had
died with thee!" Gono! sobs the strong
roan, as he totters, weak as un infant, from
the solemn room where the wife of bis bo-
Eom lies cold aud pulseless. Ah, it is a
word of sorrow, even wht-n epokon of the
nbsent who may return : hut. as applied to
the unreturning dead, ihero is no elaborate
sentence that L'vcr carved on tomb or mon-
ument so full a pathos. Yet there is a con-
nection in which it imparts consolation to
the bereaved. If wo can say trustfully of
those who have left ua— ■• Gone to Iho Sum-
mer land," and belioTo that wo shall meot
them whore there are no moro partings, and
the language of sorrow is unknown, wo
shall not refuse to bo comforted, " because
they are not." Wo are iminortul — the body
only, whiuh is of earlli. pi,-rishe.i; whcu it
can no longer subservo the purposes of the
eoul, it falls off and lets tbo real being into
tbo higher realms of lifo and lovo and wis-
dom, unimpeded in its holy aspirations. —
"When faith, based ou knowledge of heaven,
and immortiility becomes universal omong
mankind, iis it iiiny in the coming ages, then
tbuTo will be "no death," in tho present
meaning of the term, hut a translation Irom
ths lower lifo, the infancy of the r\<
tbo higher platform of aogclt.

A P

ing gossip concerning the ladies p'resi
the opening of the Chambers. " Tho Ei
pres::^, almost for the first time since s
lOeupied her present elevated position, w
cry unbecomingly dressed, ns the color of
her gown did not nt all suit her comploiion,
whiob is delicate rather than fair. Sbo woro
green silk dress, long, wide, flowing, and
tlouncoloss; a blnok lace shawl of propor-
tionate dimensions that was fastoned on the
back, where it fell In largo heavy folds, but
hardly ventured upon covering tho front uf
ber Imperial Majesty's person, A white
bonnet, advancing in a peak over tbo face,
.dtrioimed with white feathers, and a ^an<i-
u of hair over tho forehead, baring in tho
centre a diamond star, completed tho cos-
"umo. Neither brooch nor bracolet was
■isiblo, and a pair of whito kid gloves con-
cealed any rings tbnt might have been worn.
Tho Princess Clothilde, who occupid tho
' ■ ■'" diatcly to the left of tbo Em-
press, woro a black silk dress, the skitt of
which was ornamented ; with a i|uanlil}' of
little flounces; a while Ince cap, whito loco
bonnet, and the most delicutely tinted lilac
lurobout feathers. She looked exceedingly
ell. Thero \i a certain sprightly firmness
about the t'oic nnd uioticus of tho Princess
Clotbildo that is very pleasing, and o girlish
freshness adds greatly to Iter charms. Thu
completion of her Koyal Highness is of
that pure tint thai pearls cannot put to
shamo ; horlips are full, rather pouting than
voluptuous; cheeks 6rmly rounded; well
shaped, well-colored eyes, that reflect
rather than speak; strongly but not coarse-
ly developed forehead, indicative of much
intelligence, and hair the color of a ripe
hazlenut form a charming physiognomy.
Next to the daughter of Victor Emanuel sat
hor sister-in-law, in all tho mncnifioenoe of
pure velvet, emeralds, diamonds and black
laeo; and tbo imposing figure of fal, fair
and forty, or a littlo past it, to her loft, was
the pretty Princess Charles Bonaparte, wbo
never strikes anybody us having consider-
able pretensions lo beauty, if not first told
to look particularly at her. This retiring
character of feminine loveliness wqj tho

r.iOVERNon drovyn's cotton letter.
Tho Governor of Georgia ha.s uublisbed
letter to dissuadi- the people of toe plant-
ing Stales from seeding cotton during this

Esecutivb Department, (
MiLLEDDBVtLLl;, Ga., Feb. 25, I8<J2. <,
Hon, Linton Stephens- i?<'ir Si>.— I
wo the honor to acknowledge the receipt
of your letter, in which you ask my views,
for publication, " upon the necessity of
greatly iocrcnsiag our next provision crop,
and lessoning oraroppiug our ottoncrop."
While I do not anppoBB tne country will ot-
tach any great importance to my views
upon this question, it is uno of such vital
importance, that I can not besituto to com-
ply with your request.

I am of the opinion tbat we have raoro to
fear from the production of cotton this year
than from any other dieadvantage under
which wo labor in our atruggle for liberty
and indepondonoe.

As wo can import supplies of provisions,
leither from tbo ooemy's country nor from
foreign nations, wo have to depend upon the
productiona of our own territory for all the
OYisiona nocossary to supply our people
borne, including our elavos, and to sus-
in our armies in the field.
Tbe crop of the past year was abundant
for all these purposes ; but it must not be
forgotten that we had in our possession a
Inrgo portion of Kentuoky and all of Ten-
nessee, which is tho great grain produoing
portion of the Confcaeracy, and from which
the army supplies have been chleDy drawn.
Most of Kentucky is now overrun by the
enemy, and they have control of a large
portion of Tennessee. Wo atill hove the
lificont valley of Duck River : but
sacrifices will be made, if necessary,
by tbe enemy, to compel us to withdraw
forcos from this most ptoduotivo region.
Should thia effort be successful, we can not
i|y onother year un either Kentucky or
nnnoasee for provisions. It would prob-
ably bo very difficult for any one to suggest
plan by which, with tbo present abundant
■op, a very heavy portion of which was
cotton, our army could have been sustained
is year without the productions of those

With tho army which wo now hHve in the
field, and tho reinforcements which wii are
able lo bring in very eoon, and which are
being enlisted for tho war, wo can conEno
oursolvea within tho limits of thecottonond
tobacco States, which ahould raiso only
grain, and defy the combined Union forces
for years to come, if wo con supply tho army
with the nocessary supply of provisions.
But our men can not fight unless we can
feed them and support their families at
homo. Has tho God of nature blessed
with tho means of doing this 1 Unquesti
ably he has, if we do not abuse and pervert
this blessing. There are productive lands
enough in the cotton States, now
high state of cultivation, to supply every
demand of tho people and the army, and
slavescnoughtocultivato them, and make all
the provisions wo need, while almost tho
tiro white mate populatloD, a abject to mlitary
duty, can bo placed under arms against tho

if our lands and our labor are to be taxed
with tbe prodaclion of four millions of
ton bags, which wo can neither oat noi
change during tbo blockade, for provisions
to sustain life. Tho crop of tho past year
ia estimated, I believe, at about that number
of hags. This Is now on hand, and is not
permitted to find its way to market. Why
pile four millions of baga more upon it ? aaJ
tempt the enemy to greater efforts to coi
quor US, that ho may ho able to plunder i
of n richer prito? If tho land and labi
required to produce this amount of cotton
aroused for. tho production of provisit"-
it is no difficult calculation to show that

can sustain ourselves plentifully without tbn
products of Tennossoo or Kentucky. This,
bowaver. may be doubtful if oue million or
over holf a million of cotton hags are pro-
duced.

It is very clear to my mind, therefore,
that thu liberties, propertv nnd all that ia
to tho people of thn South, are sus-
pended upon the action of tbe cotton plant-
— for the next sii week*. If thny plant
usual cotton crop, my lii.aest convic-
tions are, wo ar" in great danger of being
conqiterod, not for want of arms, or men to
use them (wo can got enough of both, in-
cluding pikes, side knives, Jco., to meet tho
crisis,) but for want of provisions. If wo
plant no cotton crop, but put all our lands

id all our labor to the production of grain,

ir Bupply will be abundant, and our troops,
well fed, will he strong and courageous, op-
posing to the heavy columns of tbo tyrant's
army a bulwark of stout hearts and strong
aims, as impregnable as the rock of Gib-
raltar. No class of our society is so wealthy

id powerful as tba cotton planters, and no
other class has oa much at sUke. None is
patriotic. I would appeal to them,
therefore, by ovoty incentive to patriotism,
aad by every motiva of int'^rest, to pause
and reflect upon tho va-t responsibility
Sic.h they ace about to incur.

When thoir country is overrun, their or,
-ies caaquorod, their pruporly confiscated,
their children beggared aud degraded, and
they mode " bowers of wood and drftwora of
water '' to an insolent t ondal horde, at what
10 will they then estimate thoir cotton

ut suppose the grain crop lo be of lit-
tle iinportaace, what will ho tbe value of
tho cotton crop in 1862' If we have two
crops on band when thu bljckndo is remov-
ed, foreign speculators will bo aware of the
abundant supply, and tbe prices will bo put
down to a low figure. Suppose, however,
3 have on hand only the crop of 1861,
id the manufacturers of the world come
into competition as bidders for it, all the
probabilities are, that It would briug very
aasrly. if not quite as mucli, a.', tbo crop of
both years, if put upon tUo market togeth-
er. What causes cotton lu bring over thir-
ty dollars per hundred in New York 1 Tbo
iswer is plain ; it is tho scarcity of tho
ipply. Suppose, however, tbo crop of two
years were new thrown upon tbe markets of
the world ; what would it be worth iu one
moQtb ? Most probably nut ten dollars per
hundred- Tbero is, thoreforo. iu my opiu-
no money to bo made to Ihn planter by
Ibe production of the now crop.

But if the war continues, provisions of

all kinds must be high, and the grain crop

will, in all probability, command more clear

money to tbe plantor than tbe usual cotton

crop. Should tho planter divest himself of

ecy patriotic impulse, and view tho ques-

)n as one of dollars and conls, it would

em to ba clearly his interest lo feed his

itton aeed to his cnltle, and plant every

re of his land, except what is necessary

clothe himself ojid family, in grain, of

such vegetables as aro u.ieful in rai.i

stock or austaining life.

Wo ahould plant at least double tbou:
orop of Indian corn, as this is the miist
portant grain crop. Wo should also plant
a very largo potato orop, espocially Iho
yam. General Marion and bis men, when
other iirovisiona failed, lived on these, one
fought freedom's battles, in defioBoe of Eng,
land's crown. Millione of husbols of them
3e raised with campurativelrlitth* labor,
_ am nwaie that wo are all tbo time flat-
tered with tho hope that England and Franco
will soon interfere and raise the blockade.
England and France will act according to
their own interest. They aro suffering
latly on account of their short supply of
cotton, and would gladly see our porta thrown
open, but they uro very reluctant to ongage
in a war with tho Lincoln govommont.—
They fear the confiscation and Iosh of Ibe
Inrgu amounts of capital invested by thoii
ivn subjects in railroads aad other improve-
lOuts N orth, nnd they fear the Federal gun-
boats and merchant marine let loose as pr],
vateers to plunder their rich commoroe, —
True, they could drive nearly all Amoricst
commerce from tho seas, but their own must
suffer terribly while they are doing it. They
hesitate to chooso between this evil and tho
short supply of cotton, and tbc temporary
interruption of thoir oommerco. Tho states-
men of those nations are able nnd far-Keeing.
They are informed of all that materially ef-
fects their interests in this country. If mr
plant a cotton crop, they will know it. Tboy
will be informed of our loss of tho eranarir -
of the West, and they will naturally calci
late that wo cannot make a cotton crop and
grainenough to feed our armies another yea
and that we must be conquered by starvi
tion. Satisfy them of this, and they wi
reasonably conclude that it is tbcir latere
to feed their operatives a year without labi
in their faotories, rather than incur the e.
pease and losses of a war with the Lincoln
government.

Suppose, however, we plant no cotton,
and they aro informed, as thay will be, of
this fact, they will at ouce sea that it is our
detorminatiou to mike cur own aupply of
provisions, and they know our ability to do
it, and to protract the war while wo can feed
our armies. They will also see tbat tho en-
tire failure of the cotton crop, till the end of
tbo war, leaves them without tho proapect
of a supply within ony reasonable time. —
In this stato of tho case they will naturally
determine that their interest preponderates
on the side of JotervenSonlo break a block-
ado which is ineffectual, ftnd therefore a vio
lation of the rules of international law,
which they have established for tbc govern
rnent of tbeir own conduct.

It docs seem to mo lo bo tbe utmost folly
for ua to oipcct foreign power.s to interfere
to break the blockade, whilo wo continue lo
produce an abundant sapply of cotton, which
all foreign powers know must tooa bo per-
mitted to reach them, through the govcrn-

il of our masters, on uccou,
bihty to defend our rights for
visions to sustain our armies.

If ne can get nothing better, as long as
vc can get these, if no hare the palnotisiB
md oouroge of our ancestors, wo will set the
lower of the Lineoha despotism at defiance,
i\ 0 should also plant three times tho usual
crop of boelB, turnips, pens, tco. These aro
all valuable as food for mon, and may be
made cf great utility in raising the slook
necessary to make ourmcat. Each planter
should give especial attention lo bi.-i stook
of hogi-. cattle ond other domestic animals

vegetables wo oan raise ail tho moat needed.
and we can raise tbe grain if wo drop tho

1 on that account his interest to

Elaat more than usual, as the demand will
e greater and tho prioo better. This is a
Kclnsh and unpatriotic view of the subject.
Lie who is not willing to contribute his part,
-~- ' to sustain his proportion of the cost of
freedom, is unworUiy to enjoy it, and if
he will endanger it for a few dollars bo do-
le lose the confidence and respect of
gbbors and bis countrjmon,
Ty, no true patriot in the Southern
Stales, who contemplates for a moment the
lagnilude of the issues involved, and the
disastrous consequences which must necoa-
saxilj follow tbe production of a cotton
crop in 18C2, lo the neglect of grain, can
hoaitate one moment to determine that bo
will plant only grain ond vegetables, whloh
~>ilt snstain human life, and help to maintain
ur gallant, self-sacrificing troopa in the
field. If this is done, we will continua to
bid defiance to oar b&ughty and now jubi-
lant foe ; if it is not done, our banaars must
trail In the dust, and wo must ingloriously
lo the tyrant's rod. Let no one apply
is lo bis neighbor, but let eaoh planter
feel that society is made up of its compe-
it parts, that be is one of these parte,
and that upon his own individual condaot
depend these momentous results.

rould seotn to bo impossible for the
n Government toaustuin the war more
than iiuother ycnr on the magnLficect and
costly scale upon which il has been com-
menced. At tbe end of another year the
debt of that Government can not be cal-
latod by hundreds of millions of dollars,
will reach one or more billions. Tho tax
necessary to pay the interest upon the debt
and pay tbe ordinary expenses of thu Gov-
ernment will be greater than the people of
tbe North can bear. Hence, tho credit of
the Government must fail, and with the
prostration of its credit tho military opera-
tions must cease. Their only hope is t»
conquer us during tho year, and take all
our property li> pay the vast debt, which
they never expect to bo able to pay, auci to
indemnify them for their ciertions in sub-
doing us.

If we plant a cotton orop and tail in our
supply of provisions, they then realize their
hopes, and tho planter must lose not only
bis cotton but bis plantation, with all bis
other propaity, and the liberties of himdolf
and bia posterity. Can it he possible that
any inteuigent patriot will be guilty of tho
madness and folly — not to say disloyalty to
cur cause — of Contributing to the ruiii of
his country for the mere chance of adding
a few dvllars to his fortune 7

Let him who persists, under theso circum-
stances, iu tbo culture ol cotton this year,
eud, with a view lo larger profits, refuses
lo do all iu bis power to produce a supply
of provisions for another year, beware feet
impartial history ebould bold him as justly
obnoxious to thu charge of disloyalty to tho
South as does Ifae distiller, who for money
is destroying tho crop of the past year, and
leoviui; soldiers' wives and children to cry
for bread, wbllo be converts it into strong
drink, with which our armies aro demoral-
ised, our olEccrs disgraced, and our soldiers
degraded,

UntJ the present crisis ia our affairs is

will put their acat of condemnation alike
upon tbe destruction of tbo present greia

lu retpouso to Ihoao resoluliona Iho Gov-
ernor sent' to na a moasago in irUich he
states that be did make use of 8650,000 of
tho pcopleH woney without authority of
law. And it aeems that ho looks upon this
uneoDsitutioonl act aa one nf Iho proudest
features of liii* Admioistrnlion, and graci-
ouBly tells UB he would do the same thing

The two first sections of this bill propose
lo legalise that which Governor Dennison
admits he had no authority under tho Con-
stitution of tbe Stale for doiog. This bill
proposcatoapproprioleof moneys now in tho
Treoanry of tho State 3650,000 to Jiay debts
contracted (as is admilteil by tbe Iriends of
this bill,) by Mr. Denniaon whilo Governor
of Ohio, which he bad no legal authority to
contract, amounting in all to over 8600,000.

At the last aeaaion of the Legisiaturo there
wos appronriated onS placed at tho disposal
of the Governor, one million of Mkra,
to bo used by him to old the General Gov-
ernment in potting down and suppressing
the rebellion of the South. It appears from
tbe message ot the GoTcrnor that of the
money expended by tho State, for tho use of
tho United States, ho recovered back tho
sum of $1,077,000, showing in this that ho
had in this first instance, e:(pende<] more
money than he was anthorir.ed by that Leg-
islature to expend, but the money refunded
by tho General Government to tho State of
Ohio, was 60 for so good. ■

What does Governor Dennison do with
tho money thua refunded? does he pay the
samo ovnrto tho State Treasurer, as he,
by lam, is bound to do '

It will not be claimed but tvbnt Governor
Dennison in receiving thie money, pretend-
e<] to act BH tho agent for tho State of Ohio,
ond that tho payment of this money to him
was a payment lo the State, and so under-
stood by tho Genera! Government, His
duty iu tho premises was a plain one. He
shoald bavo immediately paid this money
over to the State Treasurer, and taken his
receipt therefor, and unless tberti may be
authority found in tho Constitation and laws
of our SUito to justify the Governor in the
using of this large sum of money belonging
to tho tcapayersof our State, he baa grossly
neglected his duty as Governor of tbe peo-
ple of Ohio, and violated tho oath be look
upon himaelf to support the ContituHon and
laws of Ohio and of the United Stotoa.

A Constitutional convention attempted to

Stoteot tho TreaHury of the Stale against
10 unlawful use of State funds, "Sec.
22, Article 2 " of new Constitution rends as

folloT

"No in

ley ibail bo dra

u tho Treasury

msddbylaw; and no appropriation ihall be i . ..
for a lonRBr period than two yeota."

Tho Supreme Court in the cuao of the
State fV. Medbury irl al., places this ci>Q-
struolion upon this section of tho Consti-
tution, they say :

"Thii tsole power of makini; approphatinns of
tbo public reronae la vested iu the General Ai-
icmbly. It ii the aettini; apait and appropriating
by low a Bpecifiu aoinunt of the rcteouo for tla-

And Ibis i« true althoU){h euSicreat revenue has
been provided for dL-bi- prospective or accruinR
er pait duo."

BntlQeedi not follow thin lino of argu-
ment further, for it is not only admitted by
tho friends of Govemor Dennison that his
acts in this particular were Illegal, but the
Governor in bis special Message lo ibe
Senate, soya :

•] It may bo well, bowevar, tij alato hure, ivbat
alrekdj (ubttantially nppean from Biy icctuoe,
that this eipenditure was not io conformity with
anflawol Itii* State. Out tbouah Inckio); thia
aothoritr, it ia •uactioned by that law superior to
all atatutory or eonstitutionnl ensctnienlH."
Meaning, 1 suppose, tho "higher law."
Governor Dennleou also tolls us that be
consulted with eiominent counsel, and be
nofl odviaod by thorn that if ho paid, this
money into the Troaaory where it belonged,
ho could nut. under the Constitutien aud
laws of this SInte, uao tho samo for imy
purpose wbatover. onleas appropriated by
an act of tbe General AH«embly.

Then, sir. if it was nut in conformity with
law. and tbe money was appropriated by
Gov. DenniHOU without autfiority of law,
and there being no authority from any law
of the United States for Ibis apprenrirlion,
1 would likn to kuov what claim the State
of Ohio can have upon the General Gof-
ornmont for this money, if ivo alinuld pass
this bill.

What docs the GovornoV mean by using
the term "merely State affairs!" No one
cTor GuppoEcd that tho Constitution of tbe
State of Ohio wos ever intended to apply
to other than "State affairs," pertaining
to the Stale of Ohio in limes of peace as
well as in times of war. 1 apprehend that
.t will not bo claimed that in diabursing this
largo fond that he was acting fortho United
Stales. If so. as soon as he oiccodod tbo
jbiisdiotion of the State be ceased to be
the agent for lie State, and the State Is not

iponaiblofor big nets. If be was ooting

an acenl for tho General Government it
becomes a ijuestion between the General
(government and Governor Dennison. Then
'lb was not acting within tho scope of his
ijithority as Governor of Ohio, and certain-
ly Ohio should not assume to pay the debts
opniraoted by him whilo acting as tho agent
-if tbo General Government alone.
I I wish lo gall the attention of the Senate
to tho manner in whiah the aQaira of State
conducted under tho managomout of
Iho GoTornor. Let us see what Quarter

inm of money expended, that even tie
Quartermaster General of tbe State, through
ithoso bonds all tbeae accounts passed, says
t^at it is impoasible even at this late day tu
tell how malloM really stand.

Suoh was the charaoter of the businesa
transBCtod by the " powers that be," prior
to April, 1801. Governor Dennison then, in
tjie language of Quortermo&tcr General
bright, says: "In this loose manner of
ioing business," expendinc not only a mil-
lion of dollars apprnprialeJ by tho Legisla-
ture, but SOJO.OOO over and above tho
unt. For what purpose! Woaretoldit
for the purpose of purohabing arms, and
keeping men in tbe field, and ready to take
tbe field, for the defense of the country !
Is this true ? Look eurcfully at the report
of Governor Dennison, and I ask Sonat-ors
here, when, and to whom, and
for what purpose this vast amount of over a
million and a half of dollars bae been ex-
pended.

A word in regard to contracts and con-
Iractora who have received Ibis largeamonnt
of the people's monoy at the hands of ei-
juvernor Dennison : Contracts wore let by
Iho Governor bi favorites — I will not con-
Sue tho term "tavoritea" to bis political
'riends alone, but let it extend to those of
learer and dearer ties. Contracts for fur-
nishing subsistence and cluthing to our men

intractors supplied to tbo State autboriliea

You find tho money in thu hands of this

will be noticed that tbo Cleveland, Co-
lumbus and Cincinnati Road, which baa done
a largo amount of business In transportioE
troops, &c., for the State, has 'i received
§77 from the General" Government. Tbe
Company sent in a bill, and it ivos passed

int of $77. Why have not tho other

feared tbut Chase, and other officers at
Washington, will not paaa upon and allow
them? Wbero are theae other Railroad
bills ? Gentlemen may have an interest in
Lher Roads, and it may be safer to attend to
lem here than nt Washington.
I find, again, another Road, which, I ven-
ire to say, baa transported more troops
lan almost any other Road in Ohio, and
ill be entitled to more pay than any other
-the Columbus k XeniaRoad—nhoso o£-
<ra have transmitted tbeir bills to Wash -
igton, and they have been audited to tbo
nountof $177. Why is this? It will bo
?en other Railroad Companies have sent in
leir bills to tbo General Government, nnd
they are passed upon. I conceive then, in
tbe absence of everything to tho contrary,
theae gentlemen think it ia better tu
cat their bills here at home, and have
tho whule thing go into the contents of this
"ill. with the endorsement of Gov. Denni-
n, and draw their enormous compensation
from tho troaaury of our State. But can it
be done ? Docs not the State of Ohio run
iome risk iu this proceeding? If the Gov-
ernor bus no legal or oonetitutioual aulbor-
ty for what be baa douo in tbe matter, will
tbo General Govorument legalize the ei-
liture. and aay ;: Notwithstanding, Gov-

, ou have disregarded all this; but under
tbe plea of war necessity, we will kindly

Tho State Government has no cbiim en the
itional Government in this mattur. It is a
question between Gov. Dennison and the Na-
tional Governmunt. Ho used tbe money
out thu authority of law, and he should
jmpellod to return it to the Treasury,

without nulbniitr. about the name umount
Treasurers Gioaon and Broslln abatract-
. Guv. Dennison bad no more authority
to appropriate thia amount thou had Bres-
" and Gibeon tho umount taken by them ;
1 in theiD timea, n hen the people ore
loaded down with taxes which they ore com-
pelled to pay, and no doubt will cheerfully
pay if they bo rightful and proper, for the
purpose of aupprosaing the rebellion, it is
on outrage upon tbcm to ^ay, wo wdl ap-
propriate $(i5C,000 to cover up tho illegol
iransaoljona of a Governor who acted with-
out the authority of law, iu tho absence of
any proof or showing to whom the money
has been paid, and for what purpose.

At on early period in ibis session there
wos an investigating committee appointed.
The Senator from Akron ia at the head of
that cenimittei^ ; and I hud hoped that be-

ll camp upon il

foratbis Bi
that commil
(owuids cnlil^tcning ns and Iho j^eople of
tho State as ta' where tbia monoy Em gone.
That committee, as yet. have been unable
to make any vindication whatever — unable
to leam anything ihnt would be salisfnotory
on theanbject-

I know that imraediately (ifter tbo appro-
priation by Breslin and Gibson was discov-
ered an investigating commilteo was ap-
pointed. They worked industriously; they
perambulated tbe State, and took testimony:
they attempted, iu their report, to show
who stole tbe moner- Bat here we find
frauds upon the State, and upon thousands
of Ohio's brave volunteers; we find con-
'hichnoman inObio. however strong
his sympathy with tbo political faith of the
Governor, dure raise hii voice in vindica-
tion of. Governor Denuison was denounced
from one end of the State to the other, and
publicly charged with letting contracts to
partisan nod nearer frienda i and that, too,
by tbo leading men of his own polilioal par-
ly. And it was left to the incoming Gov-
ernor to nosa tho first eulogy npon tho con-
duct of t do outgoing Governor. I think,
thorefote, that it is not improper for me to
suggest that the advocates of this Bill let
asunow to whom, or where, this money bos
gone. Will yon tell mo that it bos been
paid to army contractors, who furnished sub-
sistence at t>5 cents per day ] For clothes,
not worth half the price charged for thorn ?
If so, are these contracts fully paid ? I
want to make this point: If Gov. Denni-
son entered into controots with individuala,
and there is a balance yet due those con-
Iractoia. it would bo an outrafre unon the
honest tax-payers of Obi
lure to furnish money I , ,
oontracts. I believe, in tbe first place, that
those contracts were all fraudulently ob-
tained : and if not, that there would bo no
difliculty, before an intelligent court and
intelligent jury, in sotting ibem aside, on
account of tbeir having boon fraudulently
fulfilled upon the part of contractors.

I only object to tho passage of tho two
first sections of this bill — tho balance of tho
bill, I think, should be passed and become
the law of tho State. Tho first two sections
propose to provide for tho payment of tho
old contracts of Gov. Dennison, without in-
vestigating tho samo or learning whether
tho State ue really liable to pay said con-
traols. Even the author of tbia bill, tho
Auditor of Slate, ueod not look at the bills
presented, which are to be paid by the pass-
ago of this law, but they are all to go
through the hands of Gov. Tod : not for the

Eurposo of being investigated, but to be poid-
think our present Governor hos enough on
his hands to occupy bis entire time, without
going back to fix up tbe extraordinary busi-
ness transactions of bis Excellency, Gov.
Dennison.

Tho bill is peculiarly worded. The first
four sections of tho act of April, 1861. louve
the whole thing in the hands of tho Gov-
ernor : and the first two sectiona of thiaact
provide that these bills be audited, as pruvi-
ded for in the act of AprU, ISOl. But when
it comes to the bills of men who really per-
formed some service — men who entered
camp, and took up arms for the defense of
intry — tbeir bills must go through
iliny of tbe Auditor of State and the
Attorney General, before they can bo paid.
All that is necessary m the ease of Gov.
onison's contracts, U, that tho Governor
id over tho money without any inveatiga-

lo far aa the provisions of this bill refer
to tbe auditing and payingof claims against
the State of Ohio, or against tho General
Government, which have not arisen under
illegal acts of ei-Gov. Denuison, I am in
favor of it; but I have opposed tho bill
jvery lime it has been up, since it was first
sent to tbe Committee on Military Affe
down to the present time. So for
to legahze tbe illegal
ion, I am opposed to it. n is no sui-
ficienl reply that bis aata were done under
necossitous circumstanoes. He bad over a
milliuu of doltara lo begin with : he took
time to visit legal counsel, and learned that
he bad nu authority to appropriate Iho
money he did. The Legislature was within
three days' call, and bo might have convened
tbem, and let them, instead of doing it him-
self, appropriate tho money. But that would
not have answered. Why ? Tho Legisla-
ture might do too much. When he sent in

Stanton indorsing this letter. He says :
. The Revised Regulations, pagfls 160,151,
paragraph 1019, and tho following, in dej.
oribing the duty of Boards of Survey,
makes full provision for this case. Inferior
clothing should be considered as damaged
clothing, and, if sorvicible, having beco
approved, should be issued to the troops al
a valuation to be fixed by the Board of
Survey- Clothing which is worthless, should
be condemned. This I requested the Majur
Gonorol to bavo done us soon as posaiblt,
so that wo might truce it back to the con-
tractors who had coumitted tho fraud, aaJ
refuse payment nut already made.

BngadtT General itf. C. Meigs, Puancrrui;U;
OeniTBl, fVaiKinglon:

General:— Your letter of the 19th. en-
closing one to the Secretary of War, dated
the l'2tb, is just received. As your lottei
to tho Secretary states that paragraphs
101!> and 1027 afford tho proper remedy for
the abuses referred to in mine of tbo 7tb. ii
may bo inferred that there has been some
neglect on my part in not heretoforo apply-
ing tho remedy. This, injustice lo inysell
should be explained. Tho matter complain-
ed was not danut^eoc deficiency of ctothinc
and ahoua, but infcriorily of material and
workmanship. The paragraphs referred ti'
do not provide for this, and, as an ordsr
from the Adjutant General fixes a positi'e
schedule of prices for every article, Iho
Army Itegulatiens. (until extended by the
present order of the Secretary of War,)
afforded no relief Such was the opinion ti
tbe Chiefs of the Quartermaster and Poy-
masitor Departments, and you yourself, in
ono of your letters ti> me. eipressed the
game opinion, und added that the schedule
ought to bo changed in regard to infcnu'
artioles, which could not be condemned as
\ged. Boards of Survey, however,
appointed in many cases, and an eali-
_ i value given. I presume that in such
oases, tbe difference between the estimated
value of the articles issued and the schedule
dited to the soldiers on their
_ _. I perceive that your letter

to the Secretary of War bos beenpabliebed
in tho newspapers. I shall therefore pub-
iah this explanation.

In regard to the doth aent here for mak-
ing clothing, I woald remark that it is nut
damaged, but of such inferior quality as Id
bo nearly worthless for service. Moreotv,
it see-ns tluit tlie usual tickets, as to the nui>-
ber of yards in eaeh bolt, have been purpm'-
ly taken off, so as lo require the meatuTemei!
of eathonein order to ascertain, Ike defin-
eney. To measure each boll here aould C'-
ploy Ike QuarlermaitcT for a ukale ntonih.
Again, it is frequently impossible lo oscer-
tain here, from any marks or invoices, who
wore the oon tractors for this defective clolb.
and clothing. This ie especially tho eajf
with clothing, shoes, Ac, which were dia-
tribuled lo ibis and other ' ■'"" '

General: On Tuosdoy, tho 6tb inat., the
enemy commenced an attack an my right,
assailing and following tho rear guard of a

line, on Sugar Creek Llollow, but ceased
firing when ho mat my reinforcomonts, at
about four o'clock P. M. Duting the night
I became oonvlnced he had moved on eo as
to attock my ri"ht or rear: therefore, ear-

to right on my right, which thus becoming
my loft, still rested on5ugarCreek Hollow.
This brought my line aoroBS Pea Ridge,
with my new right resting on the bead of
Cross Timber Hollow, which is tho head of
Big Sugar Creek.

I also ordered an immediate advance of
cavalry ond light artillery, under Col. Os'
terhaus. with orders to attack and break
what I supposed would be tbo reinfotoed
lino of tbe enewy. This movement was in
progress wheii the enemy (at 11 A. M.)
oommeneed an attdok on my right. The
fight continued moioly at three points daring
tbe day, the enemy having gained a point
hotly contested by Col. Corr, at Ciosi Tim-
ber Hollotv, but entirely repulsed, with the
full of their commandec. McCulloch, in the

inter, by the forces under Col. Davis.

The plan of attack on the center was gal-
lantly carried forward by Col. Oaterhaus,

ter to its President:

WAaiLiKOTON, December 16, 18fil.

Dear Sib:. I have received tbe letter
which was addreaaed lo me on tho 8th Inst.,
by you, an officer of a political ossodiation

cently organized in Philadelphia.

You will eionse mo, my dear air, for what
may seem unkind or ungrateful in this re-
ply to that communication, which basgiv
en mf aomo uneasiness, and which only
fails to LuSict severe pain upon me, because
I do not regard the movement which it de-
torlbos as one of very conaidernble uiagoi-

Tbo club, as you inform me, have adopt-
ed a resolution to oiert themselves to eo-
jure my ndvaijoement to tho Presidency of.
:ha United States, and this resolution is
generously based upon a high appreoialion
of such public services 'oa I have hitherto
attempted to perform.

X avail myself of the good will of the
oluh, thua flatteringly , manifested, to say
that I consider tho proceediug as one alto-
gether unwiae, and lending to produce only
public evil In a crisis when every poasiblo
path of danger ought to be carefully avoid-
ed. It is a partiaau movement, and worst
of all, a partisan movement of n personal
charnOt se-
lf, when the present civil war was loom-
ing up boforo us, I had cherished an ambi-
tion to attain the high position you haro in-
dicated, I should hare adopted one of two
courses which lay open to me — namely, ei-
ther to withdraw from the public service at
bomo to a position of honor without great
responsibility abroad, or to retire to private
life, and avoiding the caprioes of fortune,
await the chances of public favor.

But I deliberately took another course.
I renounced all ambition, and came into the
Eieoutivo Government to aid in saving Ibe
Constitution and the Integrity of my coun-
try, or to porisb with them. It seemed to
me, tb^tbat I must necessarily renounce
all eipeototion of future personal advon-
togo. In order [hat tho counsels that I
might give to the President in such a crisis
should not only be, but be recognized aa
being, disinterested, loyal and patriotic.
Acting on this principle, I shun no dan-

fer and shrink from no re^pousibillly. So
neither look for, nor, if it should bo offer-
ed to me, would I ever hereafter accept any

Tbe country is to be saved or ioat by the

To (he Bdilor of Ihe DispaUh ■

The Richmond Dispalrk of tho 34th inat.,
reached me last evening at my residence in
Berkeley, aa I was in tbe act of leaving for
this place. Whilal I foci bumbled at the
idea that there should exist any necesaity
lor noticing a fubricatiou so contemptible
as that contained in tho Herald and other
papers of the Noilh, still, as you have, in a
spirit of kindness, oipressed Iho hope that
I may contradict the falsehood, I yield to
your suggestion, Tbe alatementvrnich you
have copied from the Herald ia a puro in-
vention— an audacious imposturo and fraud,
and tho remarks there ascribed to me might,
with equal truth, bavo been ntlributed to
President Davia or any member of his Cab-

I have not attended ouy complimentary
dinner or supper in Martinahurg alnoe ray
return from France ; I have raado no epceca
to any assomblage. large or small, since the
night of my arrival in Riohraond from Fort
\Varren ; and tbe remarks ascribed lo me
are not only without plausibility, but so ut-
terly in conflict with my well Ifuown opin-
ion, and, what ia of more importance, with
my well known public action in this Valley,
as lo exhibit upon the part of the contriver
of that fraud an unparallnloJ dcgrco of nu-
dacity and recklessness.

EaRLV iNPLURSOBa.— There Can bo no
greater blessing than to ho horn in the light
and air of a cheerful, loviug boino. It not
only insure:^ a happy childhood — If there be
health and a good oonstitution — but it aho
makes sure a virtuous and bappy manhood,
and a fresh, young heart in old age. I
think it every parent's duty to try lo make
their children's childhood full of love nnd
childhood'sproper joyouanoas ; and I never
see children destitute of them through pov-
erty, faulty tempers, or wrong notion.i of
their parents, without a heartache. Not
that all the appliances which wealth can buy
are necessary to the free and happy unfold-
ing of childhood in body, mind ond heart —
quite otherwise, God be thankedi butchild-
ren must at least have love inside Iho hou.se,
and fresh air.ond good play, and some good
oompanionahip outside; otherwise young
life tuns tbe greatest dongcr in tbo world of
withering, or growing stunted, or at best
prcmututely oldand turned inward on itself.

Flax and Cotton QuesUon.

1 alalonumberof FicW A'uff.i, we un-
dertook lo say in general terms, what crops
OUT fanners had beat raise. Now it i-j aie
our doctrines that tho earth is our Uaj-
■sol Mother: from her the nations ftro
fed, nnd the cullan> of her products is a sa-
cred calling, whioh no accident cau make
contraband. This is one of Iho Higher Low
arlicica of our creed, received and held by
than opostolio succession, being ono of
the great first laws given of God to the first
man, nnd which no human legislation or
convenlional pronanciamenlo can supercodo

We huvo been led to make this couffssion
our failh, from so often hearing and read-
ing of the moral ond political obligation of
people in divers aeotlon!, lo force the Ob-
■ Oils inns or ptoducliwn and rnviilutlo'nlij)

labliabed ayistems of ogriciilture. Wo do

)t waut to ba understood ns saying now,
that there is any moral law againtl tlilfl
forcing of crops out of their natural limit -
only thai tho porsislont efforta of certain
weU meaning people in this direction, ia not
complimentary to their good sense, either
-1 cultivators or oitiiens.

Ono of tho most common subjeots of out-
cry for flome years, has been thnt Cotton
is king, aud must bo dethroned. If this
kingihip is legitimate, a peaceful loyalty gn
part woylil show much better sense than
us lo set up some impotent Uoiibibosh-
, iu bastard aovereiguty, and a counter
the throne of David or Solomon, whose
gship -was uiitent to all men. Wo do not
undertake to decide irbothor CotUin or Corn,
or Beeves, or Cheese, or Wooden
hutmega, nrtj King; they nil havo n royal
look In their respectivo spheres, but if a
healthful Common Sense, could be Prime
in oithor Court, wo should bear
less of uDprofitoblo bantering.

e are strByiog from the point.
Fifty years ago, it was very patriotic ns
well as necessary, for Iho farmers of this
country to produce, as far as possible, all
the orticles of their family or neighborhood
consumption. Land and labor wero cheap -.
commerce, dear und dlfficalt, A snit of
spun flai or woolen fabric, reproBont-
ed n good many hard dayn' work; but it
waa work which would not usually com-
mand casli at ony price, Tho introduotiou
of Iho simplest woolen mnohinety into New
England, which was done some seventy
years ago, but did not become at all common
for twenty years after— was o relief to tho
over-to.\ed muscles of tbe women, which loft
Ihem more at leisure for Other business, —
Our good old fathef— now some yoora past
hia four-score- wai among the earliest of
Ihe machinists of New England who forged
tho single carding machine for woolcna.

ThiseipensivenesBof dress good? was a
serious burthen upon the poor, nnd oven
people in moderately easy fortune, wore re-
stricted to a rigid economy iu the matter of
dres^, bedding, etc. Tho abundant pro-
duction and cheap manufacture of cottoni;
which followed Boon after, was Iho first
great relief which tho industrial claaaes of
tbo world over felt, in this lino of personal
comfort. It ^an a legitimate as well aa an
abundant blessiutr, for which this class of
people will never be too grateful. The mui
who hud 'sweltered in a low ahirf, which
coat twenty-five cents a yard, could onjof
tho luxury of a cotton garment at half the
prioo. A spininc girl or houaowlfe, could
coma out in comely apparel, at a coat whlab
would not bankrupt her Blender treasury or
bet virtoe,

So Ihines wero going on finely — one sec-
tion, which had tbe natnral facilitica for
production, sent up tho material ; and an-
other section, which had the natural facili-
ties tor manufacture, worked it up, and botk
parties wero accommodated. Then oroao
bickerings as to tho tolativo political Blatofl
of the two porliea; this foolish contention
has grown into a gigantic quarrel, and Ibd
two people, who had overy reoaon to be fast
friends, are enemies lo the death, Q! for
an hour of good Common Sense! in default
of which tho iudualry of the country is
subverted, tho prosperity of a conturj
scattered lo the winds and a natioD calliag
itself Christian, becomo a, horde of humas
butcherfl ? Wo shall never take in tho fuU
force of this rebellion, until we have fol-

Bul to come right down to Flu and Cot-
ton : it is neither wijo or neoesaory for na,
as farmers of tbo west, to carry our rosont-
mnnta so far aa to proscribe any of the pro-
duotionfa from the revolted States^ or t«
use a homely phrase — to bile off our nose
to spite our face. We do not believe in the
economy or patriotism of wearing fifty cent
linen, or in tbe miaapplication of labor for
any snch end. Let us make the best of
our present uncomfortable position, withont
showing tbe somo lack of judgment in get-
ling out of it, that our enemies bavo «IoDe
lack of prudence in getting into it.

Some sanguine people arc alill full in tbe
failb that Abx cotton can be made to raoT?
than take the place of real cotton If this
project wero feaaible, we would bavo attain-
ed a consummation devoutly to be wished,
but there is a true saying, to tho effect that
you cannot make a whistle out of a pig's
tail. More than ten yeara ago, tbo best
genius of tbo Yankee nation was in quest
uf a method to make a cheap fibre from tbe
Sax plant; all that capital and akill could
accompliahlwas brought into requisition, and
we saw with our own eyes most wonderfal
demonstrations of euccoas at various facto-
ries; but the great solvent of all peouniary
propositions worked out Ihe resuit—iV would
not pay. and the subject waa quietly aban-

Thero is no moral objeotion againat pot-
auin" these Inveatigatien* to uny oxlont to
whicTi the purso ond patience of mpn can
go, but for the present it is safer for ordi-
nary formers to rniso corn than cotton, in
tho territory northwest uf the Ohio ; and if
people have Oai, to accept it as flax, work
it up as llai and wear it as flax, rather than
to run a tilt against cotton, for any pui-
poso of morale or politics. Cotton will
conUnue to be grown in Dixie in its ntmoat
perfection, and by ono means or another it
will ba in our market, at a bettor price than
wo can afford to grow n poorer article for
at home.

If this isuot sound doctrine, wo will thank
any reader of Field Notes to tell ub in what

montba ago Mr. Kf.nd.m.l had not any
clear conception of this war, outside of
mero desire lo aeo Ibo States restored under
the CoDBlitolion. At least, wo so under-
stood him. When wo saw those letters, ap-
pearing after a ycar'a rollection in silence,
we scanned thorn carefully. Wo withheld
tho Crst until wo saw Ihc second, anil then
camo to tbo conclusion that ho was on tho
right track. Wo cipected improvement,
and yielded to our hopes ! But atis ! how
frail bare our ■■ great men " become. With
heads right enough, they cannot clear their
hearts of malice, revenge and ol<I political
sorcfl. It is like proseouling a raan for
orimo beoauae you liate tlie man— not ihnt
you caro much for tbo orimo commitloil.

Wo con never have ptace whilo vto carry
on war to gratify a revengeful spirit. Bo-
conae aa lung ns lliero i« anybody lu kill,
there will bo somebody Ihut will want the
killing lo proceed. Wi- oun uevei-, there-

fore, bavo o'jr country restored onlil the
great heart of Ibe people ia directed to that,
and that alone, iu tbo spirit of tbe sublim-
est patriotiBui and tho highest order of tbe
ohrialion Tirloes. To reach this point is
now tho greol object— the realoralion of the
Democrooy, with its old hamanitles, is tbo
one groat step ; but this con only bo done
bynre-organiiationnpon ''first prineiplea."
Tho professional trader, who bus no koqI in
the matter beyoud an office and a salary,
whoso work is ulwoya done as aoon as the
polls close, can never do it. Such men are
like pigs who Eijueal until they get their fill
at tho trouRb, und then go and lie in (be
abode until the feeding time comes round
again. Tbecounliy swarms with such men,
and tho peojde ure paying very deorly for
the trnat they have reposed in them. Like
JUDA3 Ist'AHiOT, they are very apt to sell
out for the " pieoea of silver,"

Wo did not, when we started, intend to
n into this lint-, but it alruck ua aa per-
haps necessary; and recoUeoting at the
moment our fiiir friend's letter (see inside
poper), we felt it dno onr renders to
»ay this much in eiplunation of what not
ifrequently occurs, from ueat least, a gen-
oral oompliment, that looks like a special
and particotar approval of every line and
sentiment. Following a great subject, we
give considendilo latitude to collateral ideas,
by those who write, even directly for our

^" We are under obUgaUons to tbe Hon.
S. S. Cox for a copy of the Chicago Plat-
form ■■TasBill." It is a moostrous con-
ceptioni hut it is not 1000 pages, printed
matter, by any means. Tbe telegrnpbers
must have guefised at it. Printed, it con-
tains one hundred ojid siiteen pogee, and
onobnndrod acid nine long sections. From
tbo length of timu tbe Committee was at
work, and aa they ransacked all creation for
tbo name of something to Ivli. it is very like-
ly tboro was 1000 pages of blurred and de-
faced manuscript.

Thoy should hove taken tbe Englifih lan-
guage, selected oil the noons or snbatantivea.
and loid aa ail la/crcm tai, and then quit.
It would have been much more ecjoitable and
more easily paiit, becaoae there would have
been life and fun in it. For instance, horse,
cow, pig — tbo taj would have been paid by
tho owner. Hut. foi. coon, rabbit, squirrel,
uot being able to pay. the toi collector
would have been compelled to " seize tbe
property," nnd Ihcro would have been f on
for all the b<>ys in tbe land. So with thread,
needle, thimble, bodkin ; bot whenyou came
to fish, snake, turtle, frog, then tho boys
would offer their services us " Deputy Tax
Collectors," wilh "rots" nnd mice in, to
complete the rniiod of amuaecneot-

New Haoipsbire Elecboiis.

Tho full rotiTua are not <iu:to ail given,
but tho results sliowa that Ibongb tbe Demo-
oratio candidate, Mr. Starkk, is defeated,
yet Bbrrv, the Kepublic-an, has nothing to
brag of. Out of some liO,000 votes given
tho Democrats cast 28,000 votes— Berry
having a tittle over 31,000, and a middle
candidate one or two tboosand.

This shows neatly ono half uf tbe voting
population of New Hampshire to bo true
and faithful to tbo old landmarks of tbe
Constitution, and tbe principles that made
us n great, powerfal and prosperous nation.
If a Now England Stnte con show such a
vote as this, iu the very hot-bed of Aboli-
tion, church politics, and nil tbo isme that
sow Iho seeds of moral and political de-
slructlon, wbut ought the people of tho
West to do, who are less under the rule of
tho fauutical orders?

This vote of New Hiimpshirc, under all
tho eironinstancea, is the most encouraging
sign we have neon " from tbo East,*' since
the wor commenced, for the true test is now
being mndo.

Had tho New Hnnipbhire Joldiers, now in
tho Army, been allowed to vote, the Damo-
oratio Governor would, probably, bare beeu
elected. An iuformul vote was Inken in one
of tho New Hampshire Regiments lo test
their political preferences, and the result
was, for Starke, (Den..,) 7;^ ; Berry,
(Rep.,) 1-31 ; Wheeler, (In.,) AH. These
Abolilionisls are great patriots, truly. —
They make up tho '-bult end" of tbe Army
thieveH, but n»l tbe true soldier.

Spring Eleciions—DeniocraiicVii:-

The spring elections in Now York to far
look unusually well. Tkoy. Koc'iiESTEit,
Utica and URBRKBUSn, have all gone Dem-
ocratic. Troy and Utica by from :j()0 to
-100 majorily, Catnrangus county even has
elected obout one bnlf ihe superviaora Dem-

In Galena, 111., nearly every oily officer
olecled is n Demonrot. This is tbe way it
should go overy where. It is the lust hope
of tho country.

Aiiil-Frce Negro PciitioDs.

It ia estimated that there ure already 30,-
000 names to tbo petitions sent lo tbe Leg-
islaturo ugainst making Ohio a harbor for
free negroes. Push in the petitions. There
wns a vole in Iho House on Monday on an
amendment la a resolution testing this very
freo negro question. Tho vote stood thirty-
livo yuus, thirly-fivfi nays I This shows
that tbo popular mtive ia reaching members.

home, are in most active labor, open ur
above board at lost, to convert tho war ini
one of abolition merely. To them tbe coui
try is-notbing— the Constitution notbiog-
the white race nothing — tho negro ever]
thing. From tbo sodden rush into tbe ni
gro area of these northern civilians, almost
all tbe interest taken in tho progrcsa^f oi
armies, ond tho brUlJuut action of our Gci
eralSi and tbe bravery of our men is lo
sight cf. Victories or defeats nmount i
but little, if the war is to be converted into
a war merely of freeing 4,000.000 of negroes,
to be turned loose on the N*rtb. Do tbii^,
and it will take both armies united to pro-
tect the white people from their robberies,
assassiDutions. house-burnings, and all oth-
er acts which a starving, revengeful, holf-
oivihzed race con conceive of in their mad-
ness. If all thia has got lo come, let the
white race prepare in time lo meet it.

But to the army in active service on the
bloody fields of deaperato strife. Let us
seee how they stand to-day.

From Now Moiico. we have only the as-
surances that a desperate fight has occur-
red near Fort Craig, on tho Kio Grande—
desperately bloody for the numbers engaged.
Both parties fought aa frontiersmen only
know bow to do euob things. Thefesultis
left in doubt — tbo actual number lost not
known. Some of our bravest and noblest
officers of the regular army, fell. We look
for tbe iinthentic accounts with impatience.
Col. John P. Slougb, formerly of Ohio,
late of Colorado, bud a regiment at tbe old
Bent Fort, on tho Arkansas, wbe^ei
of this affair came, and be was i^inc
dered to Santa Fe, and all others tbot could
be added to his command in that region.

General Curtib and Price have had,
most truly, a bloody time of it on the Ar-
kansas border. A two days' fight, with the
odds of battle against us on several
sions. butfinaliy the Confederates retreated
further into the Boston or O^ork hills, oi
mountujos. The slaughter on both sidei
was immenee, including killed and wounded.
On our side it ia admitted to be from 1,000
to 1,500. Bot Ihe I

wound is almost us bad aa death outright.
Tbey die a lingenng death from the want
of attention.

It is very probable that the Confederates
lost twice our number ; say ikrcc Oiouiand
wounded soldiers altogether, all lying over
one field, crying lor help and water, in a far off
mountainous region, on tbe borders of on
mcnse Indian country, savage, inhuman i
ready lo take a hand in human blood i
in scalps as of old. and you may imagine the
bottle-field of "Pea Ridge." The loss of
officers wofl very great on both sides. Ben
McCULLOUGH is ut last Said, to be really
killed.

New Madrid has been ocoopied by Gen'l
Pope without much severe fighting. Thi
Confederates abandoned it and retreated U
No. 10, a noted Island in the Mississippi, i
short distance up tho stream. This leaves
us in possession of Coluuibua above then:
and Now Madrid below. Wo may there-
fore look for a surrender or a despernto
conflict, or hoth. If this is not tbe result
there is a miacaloulatlon somewhere.

General Halleck, Buel in tbe field,
concentrating iia inunenso army in and
aroundNashville. Tho country is describ-
ed as most beautiful and the weather spring
like, buds andblossoms blowing, aad plenty
of provisions of ail varieties loft behind by
the retreating Southerners, The Southern
Army was iu anything else than a starving
condition. That turns out to have been a
falsehood of tho abolition papers. If
they bad no cojfcc, thoy bad moat plenty.
.Many an Ohio family have bad no coffee for
months, except rye and the like-
Gen, Georob W. AIOROAtJ left here last
ireek lo report to hcadquartera at Nashville,
and will take command of a Division. This
is one of the most satisfactory and popular
appointments lately made. Gen. Morgan

This has been the cause of the lowest and
vilest ntlacks on McClelj,AN from the ab-
olitionists. Thoy nre mad because a few

Nothing from BoHNsiDG and along ibo

Southern coast, with the eicepUon of the
sad but novel affair of the " Leviathan of
tbe great deep," at Hampton Roads. The ■
Merrimao. or ns the Southerners now call
her. the '■ Virginia." has starlled the whole
lovul world, and already Congress has
ippropriateled fifteen milUons lo wholly
change the order and character of fight-
ing vessels. Thia will lead to a recon
fltruolion of tbo navies of all nationa. —
Hod it not been for the timely arrival of
Ericsson's " ^lonilor," the Merrimue
might have cleared out tbe whole Po-
tomac, and Washington City to boot. Wo
3 unoblo to learn whether tbe Monitor ur
;rrimac are much tho worse of the fight,
leir frieuds claim tbey are just as good as
er. But this is not of much consequence ^
to tbe main question, viz : that these im-
pregnables would soon clear the ocean of
all other ships, and drive all our cities five
lies inland. New York city, as aueb, is
■tat present worth one year's toies. un
is she can Gil up all the water channels
approoching her harbor. No wonder that
e city was in such a state of alarm.
Postscript.— Since tbe above was writ-
n, we have the news tbot Island No. 10
has fallen into our hnnils. So says o tele-
graph from St- Louis. This wuh olearly
an inevitable affoir.

The Seualoriiil Question.

We have bud quite a breeze for the last
week among the RopubUcan and Fusion
members of the Legislature. Tbey have
had several caucuses, but Wade always
lacked tbo number of votes to get tho nom-
ination. At one time he ran to within four
or five, but fell off again. Delano was
his highest competitor. " Ur\ion Demo-
crats" did not draw many votes, Groeb-
BECS running the highest, as such.

The Union Democrats got very wrolby
with us last fall when wo told them that tbey
were merely used to draw Wade chesouts
oat of the fire. They considered it a great
slander. We would like lo know what they
think by this time ! It is said that there is
Wade money enough about to buy ell the
voles necessary to elect him. If so
may look for him to go through at the nest
trial, for some men act as though they w
sell out cheaply. Tbe radical Repubii
are very savage, and say that they were sold
by tbo fusion last tall. We should rather
think it was tbe fusion Democrats that '
sold- Wo shall see.

But look at the amounts paid tbe Hail,

Governor Dennison's illegal Ex-
pcndiiares-'Spccch of Captain
Kenney nn the Ohio Senate.

We hope every reader of Tub Crisis,
especioUy every tai payer in Ohio, wil
read the searching, scathing epeecb of Cap
tuin Ken.-JEY in the Senate of Ohio, on th<
Bill lo nnthorize tbe payment of Govomoi
Dennison'M illegal eipenditures of money
entrusted to hie bonds by tbe General Gi
emment lo be paid into tbe Treasury of
Ohio. Let the people of Ohio tabe
and be thankful, that there was (
found in the Ohio Senate, bold enough,
honest enough to stand up in hia ph
lay open the scenes of corruption
iquity which filled the new marble Capitol
with stench during last summer.

Everybody knew that there was tbe foi
est corruption and favoritism going i
there for months, and lo stiflo tho public
olomor every man was threatened with tbe
halter aho dared to raise hia voice against
it. A set of swindling contractors, like
hungry hounds on tbe scent of fresh meat,
were to be found at every street corner,
with tho cry of "Death to all Traitors,"
and the oldest and most respected citizens,
farmers from the country, who would even
doubt tbo emaculnto bone.sty and patriotism
of these men, were insaitcd, abused and
threatened with the " ropo and gallows."
The Legislature then in session, corrupted
and hound up in tho onnol swindle, sunk at
into nbject servility, and money by

ons was poured out, in advance to do
something, that somebody asked for.

~ it in the hurry of passing law after

which came under tbo head of "mili-
tary." there was an occasional kink which
Auditor Tayler declined to straighten out.

Governor Dbs.SISON bit upon the plan

irning Audiloi himself, and instead of
putting the money which camo into bis
hands from the General Government, as n
■ffand, into tbo Stato 'I'reasury. as the law
equired, he pot it into A. P. Stone's
breeches pockot, and drew bis own ordejs

These are ibo facta, and it is fully for tbe
Ilenublicuns to utiompt to bide tbooi. Did
money- over $600,000- belong to tho
Slate, or did it belong to tbo General Gov-
inent ? If it belonged lo the Stale, then
Gov- Dbnmimos has made himself liable on-
lur criminal laws. If it bElooged lo
tbe General Government, then neither the
Stale officers nor the Legisloture have any-
thing to do with it- As we said before, let
rovernor DbnnibOn. in that case, carry hia
ouohers to V^ashington, get Ihe money on
lieni, and place it in the State Treasury

enough, because there maa no olber place to j

~Wo refer tbi' reader to the letters of Gen.
Hali-eck oji tho shoddy coolraotors : We
havo 110 doubt that Seorotary Stantok will
Bcolter these public robbers and drivo tlifm
to thoir natural haunts.

&y tho way. in nlludiog, two o! tlnoe
weoks since, to the condeinnalioa of ctotbT
ijjg sent to Kontucky to tho 181L lloginient.
U. S- Regulars, wo xeproaeoled that the
soldiers noro suffering in consequence, foe
the want of clothing. A letter from an
" orderly " in tho Regiment informs us that
though tho goods n'forrod to were con-
damned, the soldiers have not suffered in
consequence, but as a general thing have
been very well cared for, and eomraandi'd
by officers who not only undprttond thfir
duties, but strictly attand to thorn. Of Ihia
latter wo had no doubt, or they would not
BO promptly have condemned the worthless
trash sent out there. But the lioat ofliocra
cannot of themselves avoid the consequen-
ces of rascally contrnetors, as Gon. Ha llbi;k

There Is One Hope Left.

From recent actions at Wnahington, aud
the rerivnl of abolition malignity in New
York city, by GREEtEV, BANCBOPr, and a

dozen or more preachers, such as Tvko.
CoNWAV, io.. Ice, thero is on unusual
alarm in community for tho future of our
country. More so than at any previous
hour since our troubles commenced. Our
TCOent victories being turned into aboUtiou
howls for tho freedom of 4,000,000 of no-
groef. turns the whole into despair and dark-
ness. Instead, us wu wore promised aud
hoped might be the case, these victories be-
ing used for the restoration of the Union,
and through it peace and prosperity again
return to our bleeding country, we see noth-
ing before us but utter ruin and universal
anarchy.

Themeasageof Mr. Lincoln, to purchase
the eiaves, startled every \)a<t. Even those
who were willing to see free blaoks take the
place of free while men in Ohio, and tho
North, could not well comprehend how this
additional burden was to bo borne, when
the whole war expenses, tbud far, had been
run on credit, with a daily accumulation of
thiee or four millions. Indefinite, doublo-
tongued, impossible of translation into lan-
guage that would not permit of doubt or
dispute, as all bis messages ace when ho tells
us be means something, yet thero stood out
the main facts, debts, aboUtion, and free ne-
groes. This was the policy loaugBrated.
put as many faces, esplanations and denials
upon it aa you please. At the same time.
those who still held tbeir affections and
hopes on the Constitution and constitutional
goremment.

: the

mptio,

claimed by Congress to thus use tho public
money, or credit, and subject every man's
property to tha will of government.

They considered that it was a poor re-
turn for '• loyalty " to be thus robbed of
property, deprived of liberty, and turned a
beggar and slave upon tho world, stripped
of every ottributa of what bad been so
boaatiugly claimed— a •■free Americno cltt-
len." If the people were masters and the
office holders their servants, they could not
comprehend bow the relationship could be
so summarily changed to office holders
maiters, and the people scrcanti. They
could see but very tittle difference, cither,
botweou openly confiscating tho property
■ol " the rebels," and the seizing of tho
property of loyal cilineos. Loyalty was
lUin, utter, inevitable, if these monstrous
■claims for Congressional authority, to cre-
nto debts and levy lascs without limit— with-
out estimate, were admitted. Rebellion

ly in tho banging, occordlng to the Ohio
Legislature's resolutions, on criminal law,
-during their grand jury sessiun. llul wo
have seen tho best and most dovoled of our
citizens threatened with tho rope, and act-
ually run off to u foreign prison, without
writ, ond turned loose without trial, so Ihi
-difference oven here ia not so marked.

But the President has not left us long in
doubt; bis assuming the aotivo dutii
Commander-in-Chief of the Armies— bis
to instoting of FntiiosT— the "summary
CDntracliog of the military position of Get
M<Cl,i:i.LAN, the overlooking of Gen. Uuel
— tho retirement of Gen. Guant, and other
.nets, combined with the developments In
Iho civil Deparlmcntfi of tho Government,
over tho property of tho people who uru
not rebels, need blind no one's eyes longer
OS to the end of nil these Ibingf. It is

if yoi

ijpport tho Government, it is ruin if
»u do not, with about equal chances of be-
g b'jth pauper uni slave. Is this not so ?
Con Congreesmen not ace that tboy are
making paupers of their constituents ' '^^''
they not aware that they will return to nu
utterly ruined people — a broken'Constito-
obanged Qovornment— anationlost
by the blunders, passions, corruptions of
those to whom they entrusted their public
iftairs.

From tbis etata of dispair is there n. hope
eft T Ono only — one only hope, and Ihol
s local and remote, but all powerful and
finally effective. It is that the people in
hool Districti, Townships and thus
upward, bond themselves together, and turn
every man out of office who is in the least
tinged witbnbolitioniam, frea negroiem. and
all tbe isms that curse the country. Vote
for anyoffice. whoisnotfor open
■very department of government,
and tbf reduction of expeditares of overy
' lacription. Drive politics from your
churohes, and put in their place Bible re-
ligion. Take politics into your own bands
free citizens, as white men. and send tho
free negroes to church — to tho preacher, to
convert him to church discipline. Pick
for office because they are fit for
the plnocs. not because they want them.
Do your own clectioneeriDg, use your awn
judgments, exercise your own rights —
strengthen each other by good works, good
purposes, good temper, and our word for it
such a reformation would soon be forced in-
the dull craninmns of political ospirontsi
and official upstarts, as will astonish them-

Bul. says one. this is nothing but De-
locrac'i, and the Democrats will all go for
1. Most assuredly tha most of the Demo-
rota who nra not led by ideas of self-great-
icss will go for it. This is a Democratic
Jovernment — when it is not. it will fail to
ii5t. Tbis is tbe very misfortune now — it
3 tlTo departure from democracy — from a
lojc reliance with and on tbe people —
from n strict adherence to law and written
Conatitutiona through the interferenoe of
slump pteaohets seeking political power
A speedy, a quick, a sure return to tbe peo-
ple— tho only true ideas of Democracy, will
something, save much, and finally re-
store all now lost and rushing downwards
a total wreck and absolute ruin.
Think of this— there is no time to lose—
because there is nuiob to do — but overy net,
however nmall, will bo a part of the great
'bole iu tho final making up.

presentation by Mr. Eyleb, and tho roply of

Moj- BAi.LAnn will be found below. It is

worthy of remark that these letters speak

of tbis wnr aa only for tho restoration of tho

nion. Not a word about slaves or slavery

not a word about conijuering and holding

the South as a subjugated people — not a

word about tho obliteration of State lines

d a uow form of government. Ninety-

oe hundredths of our soldiers went forth

Suva the old Union ood restore it as it was

id for no other purpose, and any attempt

louse them for abolition purposes or to

insform our govornmeat or Coiistitutioa

ini tha design ot tbe bravo and gallant

>u who offered their lives on the call of

tho President, as though tboy should bo

called upon to turn their guns to the dos-

if their fathers, mothers, wives and

children. Men who stay at home and spend

urging on this war to an ond

foreign from what tho soldiers were called

to the field to perform, are as unpatriotic,

hostilo to our flag and institutions as any

cmy in tbe field in arms agaiuat them, can

, and much more deserving of punishment.

We understood some time i^ince. that tbo
atmosphere getting rather hot for some of
tho Jaybawkors in parts of Kansas, they
salUed out into Northern Missouri and
Southern Iowa, where tboy committed nu-
merous depredations upon unarmed and in-
offensive oitiiens. From there they cross-
ed over into Southern Nebraska, and mur-
dered, robbed nnd plundered to satiety.

A letter from a oitisen of Nebraska, for-
merly of Ohio, to his friend in this county,
describes tbeir operations in bis neighbor-

" I eay unto thee, again : Write tbe littlo

so that all miiy understand it; and I will
aid thee."

I bowed my head and said : " It is well,
an thou ba« prooiised to aid me, I will obey
thee."

And be said
show tbee many things which will nbortly
come to pa^g; ajid the many dreadful ca-
lamities which will befall tby nation, in con-
seqnence of their many sins and iniquities.
Thy forefalhera were brought from a loreign
lonjl; and were liberated from perscoution
and oppression. They nere brought toihis
land aa a branch of tbo true vine ; and were
watered and protected by the Great Head of
tho Church. And they grew in goodness
and wisdom until, by the fostering core of
the Almighty, they became a great and
ponerful people ; and prospered according
to tiieir righteousness. Bat they have now
forsaken ibe true God. They have set up
in their hearts other goda. and fallen before
Ibem, and norahipped. They have divided
Ibodivino Trinity, and forinedin tbeir hearts
more gods than one. They have set at
miughttbe spirituality of tbo Holy Sorip-
lurea. Self-love and love of tbo world ruin
thorn. They have placed Faith, before and
higher than, Charily. They have inverted
and perverted tbe trao christian system. —
I say unto thee, there is but one God. in tho
jjlorified humanity of the Lord Jeaua Christ,
who ia the only true object of worship : and
Ibere is no other God besides bim. There
IS a deep spiritual sense, which pervades
eveiy part of the holy Scriptures. Love to
God, and love to the neighbor should be our
ruling affeotion. There ia no trae faitb but
ihnt which proceeds from love and charity —
love to God and love to tbe neighbor. Theae
things have they forsaken in their boorla. —
They follow the forma of godlineea; but tho
powur has departed from them. Thoj' op-
jiresa tbe piior, and do not poy the laborer
that which it hia due. They have mode
nohes their pod. which will now take wioga
and fly away. And what sbaJI I say unto
thee, 0 ' Dauitbter of Zion. Tbou hast
forsaken the ways of tby mother. Thou
bast for-sokcn thy peaceful habitaUon, and
lied to tbe wUdemcaa, Tbou bast been feed-
ing upon poisoQoua vapors, which has swept
thy pow« from thee. Thou ore devaatated.
fhou art cooBumniBted. Tby scepter has
iloparted frooi thee. And by reason of tby
\ only destroyed

tgainatthe olhtr; and bis flock was acat-
tercd and divided ; and the wolf entered the
(old. and devoarcd tho innocent lambs ; and
Jieaco nod harmony was known no longer
among them. Not content with all tbe mis-
tries which had been brought upon them by
tbia wicked spirit of division, another, more

f&tal. followed. A complote acparalion of
he church then took place between tho
North and tho South. And this consum-
mated the entire devastation of tbe church.
L\nd she now stands as a weeping; mother,
pourning over her wayward and undutiful
children. And, still not content, many of
the Bhepbords forsook tbeir flocks and aid-
ed in plaojng deaigning and corrupt men
in oivU power. And here, again, arose
Btrifo and division among tbe people, until
bne section ot the country became arrayed
ngainat the other, and the spirit grew stron-
^r and stronger : and continued to increaae
[iltte by littlo, until it pervaded tho wholo
land, and the people set at naught and dis-
Regarded tho laws of their fathers. They
act up moral standards of their own, laying
[laide the teachiuga of tho Holy Scriptures;
and became tbe judges of other men's oon-
Gcieocea, and interfered with tho rights and
privilegea of others ; whiob croatedo spirit
of cetallatlon ; and thus commenced tho
t of division. First angry words, the
next will be hostile and deadly strife, until
thy fair and happy land shall become a
laud of want, sorrow and mourning. 0!
igbler of Zion, arise; clothe tbyaelf
J new garments; couia forth out of the
bilderness; renew iby covenant; do works
bf righteousness, and save tbe laud from
destruction and devastation; and avert tbo
War and bloodshed, wfiich now ns a threat-
ening cloud hangs over the land, aud will
soon burst upon thy people. Lovoaud fear
tbo Lord, and do worTcs of repentance : and
peradventure the Lord will hear tboe. and
bvert the evil.

most eitraordinary history of our nation

It is our purpose also to continoo through

It is bat a blind, of pretended patriotism,

About threo mont^ ago, Dr. liuhorli had
returned borne abuiit 1 1 o'clock in tho even-
ing, and was raising his hand to tbe knock-
er, when his arm ivas vigorously seized, and
he found three masked men around him.
The street was deserted; the doctor was
without arms, and it n'as useleea to uttempt
to escape. So ho was preparing to yield
with agoodmrace. when the man who held
him eaid : "Dr. Hubcrti. I believ
seemH you know me," said the Doctor;
;amo then, take my purse and watch, let

particularly, and saw they wero dreaaed
more like dancers than gentlemen of tbo

' "But, sir ■■ "Less talk and

mare hoste ;" and at a slight whistle a car-
riage appeared, the Dootor was put in, and
then they disappeared at full speed. Uav-
■ g concluded that oil resistance would be
leless. Dr. Huberti resigned himself totbia
mysterious violence.

For two hours they spoke nut lo him, and
tbeir language toeucb other ho could not
understand.

Suddenly the carnage poeaes under an
rchway. u gate is heard to open, and tbe
carriage stops. A door opened- " Wall?'
inqoired an anxious voice. " Her>.> be is.'
replied one of the rncn, aiding the Doctor to
descend.

They immediately took a number of atepa.
The fresh air made him sensible that th«y
wero ascending an outside ataircaae. A
door opened, and the Doctor perceived that
they 'crossed a large marble paved room,
the vestibule perhaps, and then several oth-
er apartments, thickly carpeted.

At length tbe conductor, stopping, sa
"Doctor, we have arrived, remove y<
bandage."

The Doctor, whoso leara had given pli
to a restless curiosity and a vaeuu app
hension, obeyed, and found himself in
small chamber, furnished with romarkabte
luxury, and half lit by on alabaster lamp
hung from the ceiling. The windows were
hermetically sealed, aa well as the curtains
of an alcove at the other end of the room.

Here the doctor found himself iiloae with
one of his abductors, flowas a man of im-
posing height and commanding air, and his

ful, and tbe prayer of tbe poor lady _ . .
of entreaty and despair, that tbo Doctor
felt that even humanity commanded him to
obey his 'victim.

He. took hia instrumenta with a iaat ini-
plorinz look at the unknown, who only
pointed to tbo hand — aud then — with a sink-
ing heart, and tbe sweat Htarting from his
forehead, he attempted the act. How hia
band trembled ! At length the blood flowed
-there was o cry from tbo alcove, followed
by the silence ot death— the unknown stood
unmoved. Nothing else was heard but
horrid sound of the operation, till the hand
and tbe saw fall together on the floor-
The Doctor, livid as a oorpae. looked r
le mask, llo takes tbe hand, and remoi
ing the ring, presents it to the Dootor.
"Take that Dootor, as a aouvenir ; it wi
tvar be reclaimed."

Then sparkingin a loud voice, "it ia done.
Immodintely the other masks enter ; thsy
again bandaged tbe Doctor'a eyes
him away.

The aaoie carriage deposited hi
loor. Raising the bandage, be ua
ippoar in tbe indistiuot light. It

For three months the Doctor s
^oin to unravel this terrible mystery ,
had it not been for the ring, ho would have
thought himself tbe victim of hallucination.
However, hoping that Iho ring, sole proof
of the terrible event, would sooner or later
lead to some discovery, he wore it habitually
on Iho chain of his watch.

Tbe day before yesterday, the Dootor
was invited to a ball of tbe Countess of P.,
at her hotel, rue de Vurrannet, All the dis-
tinguished iu the fashionable world were
there. Tbsgreatest names of FranceJoslle4
the most illustrious of German nobility.

A young mui, his face extremely pale,
and of a most melancholy* expression, had
been observed during tbo evening passing
occasionally through the rooms, then re-
tiring sadly from tho crowd. At length be
found himself for n moment opposite the
Doctor, and hia eyes, which at first fell
ihanically upon hloi, sought him con-
tinually. They worn soon fixed with tbe
moat frightful ospresslou upon the ring that
sparkled upon tho Doctors waistcoat. All

With these words he put upon bor finger
a small ruby ring. " It was my mother'a,"

Matilda could only reply by precsiog the
ring to ber lips. wh"n ahe sank into n chair
utterly overcome.

Napoleon left. Hia absence facilitated
the object ol the parents, Tbo General
aoon made an appeol to the filial love of his
daughter. He exaggerated his poverty-
invented a long list of debt and obligations
which he rouldnot meet, and drew a fright-
ful picture of his wretched and dishonored
old age; he even suggested suicide as pre-
ferable to such a fate. She olono could
. ind to do that she must forget
Napoleon, and marry the wealthy Count de

whoso masoulino face and ci>mmand-

og form she well knew.

A little selfishness bad saved Matilda;

but it is the weakness of aubUme natures to

instead of avoiding aacrlficia. —

Matilda threw herself in her father's arma,

Eroraising everything, and ho gave her his
lessing, and thanked her for her filial de-
votion. He woa atill speaking when Matil-

At tho moment of the nuptial benedic-

The young ^fatilda de . is daugbtei

of one of the must illustrious soldiers of tbi
empire; her father had won a high and
glorious rank, but be was one of thi
generals whom the Emperor bad n<

riohed. Matilda de therefore

bring her husband no portion.

Napoleon de is tho grandson of the

noble Duebes of . who has a diatiu-

guished name and title, but no wealth.
However, the Duchess and the General
long united by warm ftiondsbip, had engaged
to unite their children. They soon repented
tboir engagement.

While Mntildaand Napoleon wore resign-
ing themselves lo the happiness of love, the
General und Duchess, alarmed for tbe in'
tereats of their children, and a little foi
their own, wore playing a different game.

"If my daughter," eays the General.
" marries this poor devil Napoleon, farewell
wealth and happiness."

" If my son," said the Dutchess, "gets a
wife aud no fortune, bow ahull I restore tbe

noble house of ? "

The General therefore endeavored lo de-
tach Matilda de from her lover, and the

Dutchess lo uUenote her son from Matilda.
But neither succeeded. Though young und
inexperienced their love was too strong for
all the wiles of tho older heads.

The parents failing to aeouro a voluntary
separation, wero at least able to compel the
departure of Napoleon, and secure bis ab-
sence for some time. " Pecuniary esigon-

forces himself to console her, by point-
ing her to his return full of wealth, bappi-
neaa and love. Matilda woa iaconsolnbte ;

Tbe Count's suspicions were, from that
lime, farts i but he dissimulated, to aecuro

The oil districia are poouliar in many ro-

'ily is u stream about one hundred feet widr
ind about threa feet deep. It flows foi
levonteen miles in a southerly directioi;
from Tituaville to Oil City, when it falls in-
tho Allegheny river. It rosorables r
huge col, wriggling through ,i narrow vnl
ley, about half a mile wide, with hilla ria-
.ng from seventy to one hundred feet high
)a each aide. The wells are bored
level meadows or bottoms, forming the dry

ika on each aide of tho croek. and tbey

Ltend through tbe whole valley. ""'
pumping wella have been bured tu i
rote depth; tbe flowing wella are bored
Ihroo hundred and fifty lo over five hundred
depth. Oil City. MoChntockville,
Itouaevlllo and Titusvllle, are importaut oil

llages, situated in Iho vnlloy. Tho flow-
ing wells vary in their productions from
fifty up to five hundred barrels per day —
the amount in gallons from one well being
not less than M,000 per .diem. There ia no

Whetbor thia will bo done or not, I bnvo no
means of knowing, but it isonoof the com-
ing signs to which I have alluded, and ti
which I desire to call your early attention.
Whore or when thia order of things will
break forth, of course uclther you nor I
can tell, hut to be forewarned ia to be fore-
armed. HeCBuae a man may havo tiioiciH
lo pay hii dohls, does not olwaya secure
him thti iFiMiij to pay tUem. The people
ot Ohio notorious for their honesty, will
give up the Canals to the bond-holders as
men givo up their property to their credi-
rs. So would tho people of Ross county,
rn over all their interest in the Railroad;,
the bond-holdera.

Itut you will tell roe that tbo people of
Ohio havo two diffioultiea lo overcome-
the bond-holders will uot bo willing
ept the Canals ai full pay and safia-
j, That is vory likely. They may
not be willing. You and I have lost many
debt oning ua that we were not iciWn^j to
so. There is nothing novel in that. The
rcditor class were uot well pleased with
le celebrated Bankrupt Aot of Congres^^,
many years ago. Some of them even
groiclrd harshly in tho public ear. But ao
successful was that act in liquidating dobtt.,
popular waa it with many, that our
present Congress is fairly besieged to givn

t will be done, I judge. The very foct of

an sign of brookera abend.
The second objeotion, which you will no
doubt interpose, is that the company who
hold this Cannl lease will come back upon
the State for damages, claiming a violation
' " a solemn eonlTacl," and all that aorC
thing, if their leoae ia not permitted to

luld venture on such an expedition ? Di
you think they would be willing to hove au

tbe few yioldSi for the time being, to the su-

in tho course of no very Ion- time, to dis-

{ilace power from whore it was originally
odged, and to change materially tbo char-
.aoter.of both tho oivil and political institu-
tions. It ia, iu truth, in consequence, and
not in spite, of tbo Spirit of liberty that tho
phenomenon 1 have noticed frequently take*
place. But tbe efeots are very dlfleront,
undor verr different circuustauoes ; aomo-
timea lesaing to tbe moat beneficial ends,
ivbilo iu othera they are attended with [ho
most deplorable conaoquencea. All thi
forms which have boon offootod in Groat
BritaiDi during the last thirty-five years,
h&ve been brought about by a marked al-
teration in the social condition of tbe popu-
ilalion. The great mass of the people who
-were before passive citizens, became, on
-such ocoBsioDB. active citixena ; giving
birth, at first, to a class of ngitiitors, lew in
number, but the moat active of their own
order, who, speaking in their behalf, and
apheld by tboir iufluence, snatched from
power those uumoroua concessions, which
have produced quiet and tranquility, and
brought tbe civil Inatitutiona into a more
exact agreement with the spirit of the gov-
ernment. In these instances, therefore, al-
though few, comparatively, wore active, yet
■that few were impelled by the will of a ma-
jority. A fraction or junto, declaredly in
opposition (o tbe opinions of tbe majority,
armed with the boldness which distempered
feeling imparts, and insinuating it^lf by
tho moat odious artificea. into popular favor,
baa DO resemblance to those cases.

Nor is this an arbitrary tlisiiuctiun, IjuI one
of great impertanco, iu understanding the
hiatory of every country, and eapccially that
■of tho Unilod^tatoa. The e&cioncy of a
miiitary forcafconsists iu its being a com-
pact, disciplined and active body: aud the
officjoncy of a civil force, whether self-erect
cd, or erected by the laws, depends upon
-tho same causes. It would be difficult to
enumerate all those causes which contribute
ito this greater octivity of one part of the
.community over all others, or tu describe
the various forms which it assumes at dif-
ferent perioda. The most prominent cause,
without doubt, is temperament. The or-
ganization of seme individuals naturally dis-
poses them to more activity, of one kind ur
another ; and when it is united with a cur-
tain dexterity, aud suppleness of temper, it
converts a faculty, which might otherwise
he very useful, into au instTument of great
.misobief. Aud tbo chief forms which this
.propensity assumes, are tbe love of gain,

■ the love of popularity, ibo love of power
. and influence. I use tbc-o lermn to deuoFo

tbo disposition whenever it is iJi eicesa,—
' We muBt not confound tho love of gain with
' those honest, industrious habits, which dia-
,.poae the greater part of mankind lo cunstnnt

• nor tho desire "of popularity with n just
sense of the esteem of others ; and with le.

tutes the true destiny of man. liut that

" it is this very elevation of tho pop-

Wo have been accustomed to divide tho
population of a country into the two classes
of productive, and unproductive laborers -,
iboc is, properly, into those who contribute
the pbysioial, or moral sitengtb of tho

negative, that is unproduolivo butharmlesB,
But now wo are presented with another dis-
tribution in consequence of the addition of

irious to tbe public interests : n class
'hose whole lifu ia devoted to doing mia-
hief. and promoting dissensions, and heart-
burnings, among the other members of
Bocioty. jU a class, it is entirely ol mod-
em growth, and it becomes more formidable
iu proportion as a country advances in
knowledge and riches. In like manner, as
there ia aclaaa in politioal economy, who
are denominated middle men ; who, although
they produce nothing directly, yet perform
the very useful part of distributing the
commodities which ure produced among
those who are able to purohaao them; so
wo may denominate tbe new class I havo
spoken of as the middle men in tbo political
world. Their vocation consists in circula-

At present, so far aa regards our civil lib-
ties, the most invaluable blessing of good
ivornnient, the signs are dark and forbid-
ng. In tbe centre of that capital wbicb
is once lighted up by the cenius and wis-
doui of statesmen, and in ihe very building
founded by the benevolent Smtthson, (or tbe
lolu purpose, as e.rprossed iu his will, of
tpresding knowledge among mankind, are
;o be heard, night after night, wild, and fu-
rious iuiprecations upon those inslilutioua
which hove been built up by knowledge. —
The temple of science is so polluted by
theso foul and obioeuo orgies, as to wring
from tbo virluouainen of the party a burst
of indignation. Tbe college of learning
'las been seized by the Jacobin club, and
lonverted into a school for Ihe dissemina-
;ion of barbarism. "Devoid of suoial feol-
ng. and fatally bent upon mischief." (in the
language of the indictment fur murder,) they
are contriving to extinguish our Uberties in
tho blood of Iheir fellow creatures. And
far from this, in a building designed lo
er the plain, unprelendiug manners of
the Republican citizen, and for the dispen-
sation of the hospitalities and amenittea of
as witnessed, n few nights ago, a spec-'
almost as unseemly. At a period
when n general gloom and depression pre-
amoDg all classes, tbeExeouiiveman-
p-as brilliantly illuminated and its spa-
balls thronged ivith a generous train
of guests. The sumptuous least, tho rev-
elry and carousals of that night laughed to
scorn the lamentations of the private citi-
zen, and proclaimed thai tbo violence done
to our liberties was a subject ot rejoicing
id merriment. I have read of an Eastern

!d the cbanictiT I't poor country villa-
foresta have again taken possession of
land ouco in a high state Af cultivation,
thousand of fauiilics have been ruined or
lome hnplessly involved; whilst tho no-
I, for whose sake sacrifices so vast have
>n made, has hitherto shown no inclination
to take advantage of tho freedom which tho
nation generously bestowed upon him. All
tbe prediotions of our pbilantbropisla have
beeu falsified. Tho negro, unless compelled
by necessity, will not work. If he can
make sufficient money in a day lo cover the
ipensea of a whole week, he will not work
le day out of the eeven ; and bo Is more
■or "very chary of eulctiog into any oun-
tract or engagement that can be enforced
by law." The West Indian planters have
since the day which proclaimed freedom to
3ne and ruin lo tbe other, resorted, but with
indifferent aucoesa. to every meaaurc that
could possibly induce the black to work. —
Tberelaat rny of hope was that the protec-
tiongis-on to colonial sugar would be main
taiued ; but wheu. in IS-iS. free trade swept
away this remnant of an antiquated system,
a general doapair seized the cauu growing
community. We happened to bo in the
steamer whiob took out the iutelligenco of
the Sugar Act having passed through Par-
liament, and well remember tbc uniious
of those who baaleuod on board to
know whether their doom was irretrievably
sealed. For a year or two tho energies of
the planters wore totally paralyzed by tho

Mr. E. B. Underbill, in his new work. "The
West Indies . their Social and Religious
Condition," says :

■' There were very few disposed to take a
hopeful view of the prospects of tbo country.
The newspapers, with scarcelyan escopiion,
represent things in tbo darkest light ; and
if wo may believe tbe sinlementa unceasing-
ly made, Jamaica is haplessly ruined. In
the usual course of things, the inhabitants
of a country are proud of their native land,
are disposed to hide her faults, and to apolo-
gize forher weakness. In Jamaica it is not
so. Planters, officials, olergymeu, mor-
chnal*. ahoii-keopers, seem to lake dehght

Tho officers are venal. The X-egislatoro is

ot Alricuu barbarism aud dark superatitiou.
In short, tbo island ia in a stato of irretriov-
ible decay. Such is tho picture which is
leld up to a stranger, and no little pains are
taken to make him believe it to bo a failb-
I'seututiou. There is much iu tbe
appearance of Kingston lo corroborate this
view. Its wharves are oomporativoly silent.

Coolies, both Chinese and East Indian, acorn

course this entails taxation, and to that ox-
tent becomes a burden on industry, and

terrible ordeal -.

•• Three years after emancipation, in 1811.
the condition of the Island was most de-
plorable; tho laborora, had for the mosl
part abandoned tbe eatatea. and taken poaa
easion of plots of vacant land, especially it
the vloiniiy of the towns, without purchase
or lawful right. Vagrancy had become an
alarming habit of groat numbers; every
attempt to take a census of tbe population
was baffled by tho frequent migrations which
look place, Crimiuals easily evaded justice
by absconding to places where they were
unknown, or by hiding themselves iu the
dense forests which in all parts odged so
closely on the cleared lands. Drunkenness
increased to au enormous degree, asiiisted
by planters who freely supplied rum to tho
laborers, to induoo tbem to remain as culti-
vators on their estates. High wages wero
obtained, only to be squandered iu amuse-
ment, revelry and dissipation: at the same
lime, these high wages induced a diminished
i iltivution of food, nud a corresponding
r. :ise in price and in lh<' import of pro-
. -i-jiis from tbe ueigbboriog islands and

utinent. Tho Iiborers steadily refused
1) uuler into ouy contracts which would
oblige them to remain in the service of a
master ; this would too much have resembled
tho stale of slavery from which they had
but just emerged. It wes with reference
lo this state of things that Lord Hnrri.i
wrote in 1848— 'One of the many errors
which havo been committed ainoo the grant-
ing of emancipation, is the little atreution
paid to any legislation having for its end
tbe formation of society, on true, sound,
and lasting priaciplea. As tbc quealiou al

a society has not been f.trmed. Liberty

Tbe Houto will pardon Ibese personal nllusloas,
laimuch ua they have been called for by touio

nitti tbo ouporeot narrow and revengeful
of tho resoluliaos. I stand upon that plat-
form now, and euuncioto ita priuciplee aa heartily
to-day D9 1 did when it was framed. I am ia fa-
ol a vigoroualy protected war for the main-
ince of ilio Federal Uoion under tho Coostitu-

Dud against any ond every ciyu prom iae that may
be prapoied to be made under the coos of the

i« accomplished, the Union reilored,the authority
ol the Conetilution and tbe law-a recognized, and
their security eatablirhed bj tho formal eiccutiou
of the primo movtta of the rebellion, then I am
of shedding not one single drop of blood
by nay of revenge, nor for nny purpoio of con-
(jueit or subjogalien, nor f<ic the paroofuof ocer-
"- towing or interfering with any riglita or eitab-
,bed institolions of tue Southern people. Theee
I believu to be tbu sentimenta of a largn and re-
ipcctablu majority of Ibo Uoion party, and I do
not hesitate lo alflrm that whoever attempts to
projtitute Ihia Union motemeot to purpose? i>f
emancipation, or to wage a warof dreadful blood-
shed for tbe (lurpose of destroying slavery, ia ua-
failbfal to tbu platform on which be wa> elected,
and untrue lo tho trulls reposed ia him by the
people.

Tbere ia uach iolemperate and untimely talk
about thii Goal eottlemeatof this war. 1 do not
auppoao that all that is aoid about con-
hscDtiug Iho entire property of the South, and
hanging uot only tbe leaders but every body olae,
'~ earneatly Epokeo, and yet auob wurda aro not
Ibouc llieir ovil eHect. and to aay the least do
. t become the inefflben> of a legislntire body.
Tbose men who lulk ao hugely about nheddiog
Ibeir loat drop of Mood for [bo extcrmmation of
tbe SoQlbem peoiite, in my opiaien, will be very
careful about tbcdding iheir liret drop. It is said
Ibat Ibono men wbn mice the black [lag South, al-
ways betake tbcmaelvca lo BOfo iiuarlers when
the canooD begin to boom. So with these btood-
tliiraty heroca. Tliey like best bottles fought in

nbero tbere la no smell of " vilfuinous saltpeter,"
and where no cold ball) ol lead aud iron tear Iho

I havoepuhen no these rvfolatinoE, Mr. Speaker,
at greater length than I intrndid I bate urged
my objections to their form, woidiug. dyle " "^

of the nation bad been fired upon— insulted— and
the whole country, in ci>n-<e(|ueoce, waa thrown
into 0 fever of eicitement. War I war! waa up-
on every man'* lips, and he who would then bate
nttempled to have shown what ivas really true,
(to-wil: that many who yelled tbe loudest fur the
Union did not care a straw for it, but were only
pleaied Willi ibe war because tbey believed it
would eventuate ia the iibolition of slovery,) we
aay, ho Ibat attempted thie kindof orcti meat, was
ligoilicnntly pointed to n rope dangliDg from the
lamp post nearest bit door, and loM that it hung
there for traitors. Qf courae tho argument waa
irteiittiblo, and bo tiirew up hia bat and shouted
Ibo loudest of any fur tho conflict to begin. But
thoto limea ate all forgotten, nud the people are
beginning to iliiak again, and ni they Ihink and

Cun we compromise ' Thia quealion, that
comes homo lo tie heart of every true American.
I for one, am not afraid to answer in tho Dllirinn-
>ive. Hot whilu J think we ran compromitc, 1
uui unwilling to go in for a compromifo except
upon terma honorable alike to both pot ties ODgugcd

otlior places where the t\vo armies bavo met, and
' Ma not nois ai/ianujl to bo for compromise.
Listen, then, to my plan, and then judge of it as
ad and your coDsclence may direct: la thuDr^t

nied by anybody but an abolitionist or a lunatic,

olitionists of the North, nnd the Gre-eating deioa-
~;oguea of thu South, neither of whom, IhankOod,

lavc ever been in a majority ia either sectioo, —
Doea any aane mau believu that there ever was a
liiao prior to the commcncuLDent of actual bo^lili-

had been granted a fair opportunity lo express
"--''aentimonts, have refused the conditions, for
mco. contained in tbe CriKcin/en Ittsolutiens t
ly Ibey would not. --Vod so well aware of
this fact was tho Black Republican mnjorily in
Congress, that neither prayers nor tlireata could

nduee them to graal tbo jitoplc. an opportunity to
Lite upon that or noy other proposition, looking
to D peaceful Ectllement of our troubles.
'" -" — ember how tbe people implored tbeir
ra in CongreM, that they abould be

But we alio reiDcmber how etubbomly Ibe Re-

Would Iho CriltendcD resolutions have been nc-
ceptod by tbo South I Mr. Douglas thought tbey

lowed to vole upon tho i|ueslioa of peaco or war,
Bud deeido it fur themsclvea ; but agala like their

How TO Keep Eaas a Year. — It has

gum, filled or nearly full of unleacbed ashoe,
tho gum wfts upset by accident, and I paid
no futher uttentioa to il, until I needed some
aabcs this spring in making inorlar. In
taking tbe asbes off tbo ground ot tbe end
of the gum, I dug out four eeRS that had
been lain there one year ono. We used on*

weeks and tnen nsed them, i '

were leached iri Ibe courauof time by Iho-

ihis. and selisfy themselves that eggs can

Wo call OBpcoial attention to tbo letter of

subject of Iho location of ttic past office in
that city. It is one of tbo most culling re-
bukes that n'e have seen from a high oDicer
of tho Government to that clnsd of low fct-
low9, who, lo gain ii political end, look upon
tbcOTselves to represent every oue nho dif-
fered politically with lliem, as eucuiies of
tbo Union, sympalbi/.erii with secostiioi), and
traitors iit heurt. Tliu whole cuuutry bas
been tilled with ibia elass of worlhlesa libel-
erH, and monyof them huvo made it pay
well, and millions of plunder bavo fallen
into their unworthy handB. Kew of them

Iho soldier out of his lintd-eHrui'd pitlance.

When, howBVor, the truth burst upon

tboy tried to escape from their owu nets,
by charging upon the Northern Domocrata
that tboy encouraged tbo South to eooede,
and Bympathizod with them in their rebol-

it bIiows clearly tho gross, violent nnd daa-

There appears to bo a wide difference
among men iu regard to tho proper mode of
treating ptlaoners of war. During our rev-
olulionary war nnd tho war of 1812, we
complained, without stint of language, of the
barbarities of tlie DritisU Government, aud
the vulgar insolence of the British offioors,
in tbo treatment of our prisoners- the
■' black -bole," the filthy ■'pcieon-shipa,"
alive with vermin and full of deadly stench,
nnd the " Darlmoro pri.*on," all eo familiar
lo Amorioau curs and so lasting in dfsgust
in every Amorioan heart, that wo did not oi-
peot to find much difference of opinion
among ourohristino, enligbloned and patri-
otic people, as to the proper tr"atmont of
prisoners of war iu this unfortunate civil
amoug ourselves.

laving coufidence in tho bravery of our
people on Ibo field of battle, wo know that
that bravery would be oiemplified on the
ido of the victors after the storm of hatllo
■as over. II is Iho diQeronoe between true
bravery and mere btuto courage. Tbo tru-
ly brave man is nlwaya generous und hu-
mane. Geo. Jacikson won more renown
among tho truly good and great the world
, for bis generous, humane and really
fatherly devoliou lo wounded and nrisoners
taken nt New Orleans, than for tbo muster
ly nud unequalled victory ho won ou tbnt
occasion, This in a nialterof history, A
I of our boast nud our glory.
V'- do hope that both the North and
lb. while this most cruel und unforlu-
-' war lasts, willsboiv their true Ameri-
can charneter. their estimato of civilized
warfare, their hopes of a fuluro life of nn
oy ond redemption from all worldly mistnki
by odopting lon-nrdM prisoners of war i
bolh sides, that rule of aolion which will bo
applauded by true mou, when tbo passioni
succumb to reason, und hatred is modified
to tho civi lined standard.

Inasmuch aa I ocn rellei
from duty ou account of a aevero cold

ask the pcivilegH of addressing a few words
to your readers through your valuable pa-
- --, espeoially to that [>orlion of your read-
who have hitherto been .Southern in feel-
_- Uut it must be understood that I
iipeuk from nc nuthorily above that of my

And now, reader, " oome lot us reason to-
ither" liko men |>ossesscd of rational ily
nnd bound together by Ibe strongest tics of

As oue of tho Union army I will say wo
avo come among you. but not. as many of
ou huvo Buppoied. as enemies for the pur-
ose of murder, and luyiug your country
'nslc. bul as friends nud brothers to do you
good, to protect, not to destroy. Allbougb
it is not to ho e.Tpeoted that ao large an
army oau be marched through any improved
country without leaving somo murkit of des-
truction, neither can it bo oipectod that a
large nrmy can bo organized without con-
taining faomc bad men within it nnd even
imo bad oSicers.

That there haro been some outrages coni-
itlcd nono will deny, but it bus been made
tbo duty of nil officora lo ferret out and
puniah every tiling of tnpkind, andnuynog-
'oot in this respeot, ivhore proof ia made of

But you may ask tbo question, "Have

iibstandiog all this, ou the aligblest

I .■ ,. I"'*'*''-' It proves most clear-
ly that they care nothing about slavery,
d have only beon uianmuvering to divide
ll destroy this Government ; and bad she
undertaken to aid tho South in this unnal-
iral war, it would not bavo been with any
lesire to make tbcm a free and independent
people, but that she might make themslavos
and vassals to do her bidding, nnd tboroby
destroy tbo only govornmrtnl in the world
iTortb lighting for.

Hat -she is now too late, if nven she was
disposed to interfere; the time has passed,
tbo dio is cast ; sho cannot change it ; and
tho only question that now presents itself
ia,buiv can tho war be closed in tbosborloat
lime with Iho leoat effusion of blood, and at
tbo aomo time restore thobost poasiblo feel-
ing between tho parties engaged? I am
aware Iho Sonthern people have been de-
ceived by tho Southern presa aud tho
Soutliurn leaders, but tboy will soon be un-
, bul it may not be soon enough lo
lb blood that would be aaved if tbo
great muss of the people South understood
tbo o.\uot condition of affairs as thoy eiiat
at the present time. But lot it bo under-
stood that WB ask nothing bat the restora-
tion of the old governmont, and that must
-lud will bo done, ot no peace. If then you
lave had war enough, if tbevo bas been
enough loss of life, enough soldiers suffer-
ug, away from homo and friends, enough
iViduws made, enough mothers weeping over
Ibe loss of loved ones, enough' of Jasolatiou

, Wayncsh-r/^ (Ptnn.) MesHn^ir.

Lcltcr from Biirhs Counfy. Peoo-
sylvunin. lo llic Etliior nf TItc
Crisis.

Mr. Medahv— i)f-!r ^if.- — As yo.ir
lermBofsubaoription are strictly ill advance,
it Ttoutd bo moat opportune f'or nio to re-
new it; aa I mighl, in all probability, be left
minus The Crisis.

I hnve been ■ wcotly render of The
Crisis for tho last sis months, and that,
too, with more than ordinary inlereal, I QS-
Bore you. Consequently, I am prepared to
give my opinion reapecting it in a free and
unbiased nauncr.

The Cruiiis is unqueslionnbly and em-
phalically apaperof ideas and principles;
and, BO for as known, ia ouo of tbo most
thoronghly independent, conaervalive, sound
and reliable Democratic Journals iu Ibe
country — in foot, eu much so, that I would
not do without it for ten times ita coat: and
I feel justifiable and irarranled iu saying,
that it merits tbo approbation of an approv-
ing, impartial and disoriminatiDg puWio.

I honor you, Mr. Medory, from the bot-
tom of my beort, for yojr boldu<!sa and
maulineES, and for your fearlcaa and un-
daunted courage in presenting so bold a
front to the enemy, by way of odvocniiog
truth, justice, harmonyi ei|uolityi to oJI oiti-
zmi; Slate rights and all thoso sound eou-
Blitulioual doctrines mhioh havo their origin
in the Democratic party, and oauslng them
to be promulgated throughout tho length
and brendlh ot tho land, Ihroush tbe columns
of that statesmanlike and r-n-^mal sheet —
The Crisis — and, thereby espoaiug alt those
vile, vituperatiro msosuri^a, abolition
schemes, palpable and glaring absurditiea,
egregious errors, base and falso misrepre-
sentations, unfounded fabricalionsi etc., etc.,
whiob have Ibeir origin in the Black Re-
publican party — resulting, as il has, in ririf
war, riot and bloodshed, anarchy and cou-
fusioD. and a complete annlhilaiiau uf this
once happy and prosperous country.

The Crisis is worthy of the patronage of
every true lover of his eonnlry; and I trust
to God it will find its way into every family
in the Union, for it knowa no South, no
East, no North, no West. And if my fee-
ble voice could bo heard, I would stand on
yonder peaks, aod cry aloud to tho people,
•'Tnko Toe Crisis!" The principles and
sentiments that it advocates are right; tboy
are based upon broadconstitutioual grounds,
like everything else that emanates from tho
gifted tongue, tho prolific pen of the Editor.
Consequently, wo may naturally infer that
TU£ Crisis ia bound to tloaiieh— its name
iB'legion, and it will ore long attain an un-
precedented circulation, unparallclled in the
anuals of oewapnperdom.

Hnllccb.

Tho following letter of Gen. HaLLEOK
will explain itself. The remarkable para-
graph which we hove put in ilaiin. will
strike the reader with wonder, thata Gener-
al high in command, surrounded by milita-
ry power and glory, should still bo a man —
a ehrislian, anilailisi'iltresleJ patriot. That
he should, at a time, when such oipressions
might cost htm his head, take tho opportu-
nity to eolorco tbo great points involvec
in this controversy, viz; That our country
can only be one, that a permanent divisi
cannot be thought of. that is, wchave got
live together, that we ahould instil iuto tbo
public mind '■ teotimenls of fraternal affec-
tion." that ■■ corrupt poljiitiuns " ■■ will pro-
bably " '• continue to fnu the llanics of dis-
cord " "from Beif-intereet." This is tell-
ing a long story in a few words. It shows
most clearly that our lending Geoorola. high
in command of tho army, are perfectly sat-
isfied, from actual knowledge, obtained
through the positions Ihoy bold, "that cor-
rupt potilicioDS," for the basest motives, are
SO fanning the (lames of discord, that pence
oonnot be bopi-d for— that tho great purpo-
ses of our viciorioiia arnia will bo entirely
destroyed by these intermeddlera— thesi
wicked demagogues in civil officca, for men
ambition and greed.

Wo have never had any doubt of ihia —
wo havo from the first tu the Inst waroei

-' 1 will show thee many tbinga wbieb will

not. and return to Htm who is able to turn
tbo ferocity of Ibe lion to the meekuesa of

Tbo Augol tbon gently touched luo up-

And I looked up and beheld a large nud
spaoioos bell, with inenof various a?es. aud
different nppeai-ances, AH appearea to look
grovn and doteruiined. Their faces (with
(I fow eiceptions) hod a dork appearance ;
so macb ao that one would Lave taken tbeni
to boof ttdifferect racsfrom our own. I also
saw a large multitude of both men and
women; some staudinc near and others more
remotely, who aecmcd to bo deeply inter-
ested in what was going on in tbo ball.
Many were dressed in white robei and oth-
iirs ia light colored garments. I iarjuired
what had brought the assembly together I
and the Augel answered nie and aaid ;

"Those grave and determined looking
men. who are seated in the ball, are mem-
buTS of tbe Confess of tho United States ;
and their grave and determined appearance
dignifies that they will do all things fn thoir
power to continue the diviaiou ot the peo-

ance of their faces signifiea that they are
governed and controlled by evil passions,

were not dork, were opposed to strife and
bloodshed. Aud the inullitude which thou
soest are tboao of thy fellows who aro in fu-

that they anxiously desiro that Cougresa

But 1 say unto tbee. by reason of tho wi>
edness. and hordaess of the heaiia, of tbo
rulers, nothing will he accomplished by
them to bring peace to thy distracted land.
Look not to them for peace, for their hearts
are filled with pride, vainglory, lovoof rule,
lad love of power, more than tbo lovo of

bigb and noble principlea of humanity will
bo disregarded by them, and all their delib'
crations will bo controlled by hatred, and
their acts consecrated and sealed with tbo
blood of their fellowa.

SCENE 2.

After tbu scene just described was ended,
Ibo Angel said to uie in a kiodandeffection-
Qte manner ; '■ Look toward the South."

1 did ao, and I behold another assembly,
mmilar to tbo one just described, only pride,
hiiugbtineds and defiance, were more deeply
exhibited in their couotenancea ; their faces
and eyes seemed to have the appearance of
a ted light, from which emitted a. tlamo. as
of flaming fire, I also saw another large
concourse of people, some oppatently near
ivnd others more remote from tbo assembly,
whose appearance seemed to partake of tho
spirit of the assembly. And whenever ihey
dBterniined any great or grave question, the
ptople would raise a great shout; and all
Bcemrd to be of one miad, and hailed the
deoisioa of tho osiombly with delight
enthusiasm. I inquired, what was the
nification of what I had seen! and tii'o
-Vngel said unto me :

"Tho assembly which thou aeeal

of the Mme evil spirit of division which oi

cause of Its dovoatalion and conaumniatioL
aad which will bo the cause of the destruc-
tion and complete overthrow of tboGovom-

aud flomiag appearance of tho aaaombly nnd
the vost multitude which thoa eeest, signi-
fies, nil love to God and love to tho neigh-

" mmodoro Dupont. of which tbo following

IliFiuon Of F^.nxi■'D^s^. Fii Mnidi i. I'a'ei i
'Sin; — I had tbo honor to Inform you
my last dispatch that tha expedition for
Fernandina was equipped, and woitinc only
euitoblo weather to sail from PortHoyal.
we now the pleasure to inform you that
11 in full posaeaaiou of Cumberland Island
ond the Sound of FcrnnDdiun. and Amelia
Island, and the river and town of St. Mary'.i.
I sailed from Port lloyalon the lost day
of February, in the Wabnsh, and on the '2d
entered Cumberland Sound by St. An-
'd lojet, in tho 5Iohicau, Commander
S, W. Gordon on board of which ship! hove
hoisted my dag. The Ueet comprited tbo
following vessels, sailing in the order in
whioh they are named : Ottawa, Mohican,
accompanied by tho Ellon, Seminole. Paw-
nee, Pocahontas, Flag, Florida, James
Adger, Bienville. Alabama, Koystono State.
Seneca. Huron, Pembina, Isoftc Smith, Peo-
goin, Potomsko, the nrtnod cutter Henrietta.
the armed transport McClellan, tbo latter
having ou board tho battalion of marines
under tho commaud of Major Reynolds, nnd
the transports Empire City, Motion, Stat of
the South, Belvidere, Boston, and George's
Creek, containing a brigade, under the com-
■iiand of Brig.-Gon. Wright.

We came to anchor in Cumberland Sound
ut half-past 10 on the morning of the ;Jd, to
'--1 an examination of (he channel and
for tbo tide. Here I learned from a
aband, who bad been picked up at sea
by Commander Lanier, aad from the neigh-
boring residents Ou Cumberland Island, that
tho lU'bels bad abandoned in haste the whole
of the defenses of Fernandiua, aud wero
at that moment retreating from Amelia Is-
land, carrying with them auob of their mu-
- tiousoa their precipitate flight would allow.
The objeoi of carrying the whola fleet
through Cumberland Sound was to turn tho
heavy works OD tha south end of tho Cum-
'lerlond and the north endof Amelia Islands.
Jut on receiving this intelligence, I dotach-
id tho gunboats ond armed steamers of light
draft from tho main line, and placing them
under the command of Com. Drayton of
tho sloop Pawnee, I ordered him to push
through tbo Sound at the utmost speed to
save public and private property from
thraateoed destruction, to prevent poiaon-
ing wells, and to put a stop to oil thoso out-
rages by tba perpetration of which the lea-
ders of this nefarious war hope to drive and
exasperate tho Southern peoplo.

In the meantime I went of tba Sound and
by the sea to the main entrance of the
horbor. In cousequBnco of bod weather, 1
was unublo to cross the bar lill this inuraing.
Commander Drayton, accompanied by C.
R. P. Uodgera, with the armed lounobes and
cutters, and tho small armed compaineB from
the Wubodb, hod urrived several hours be-
!. Immediately on his entering the
harbor, Commander Drayton sent Lieut.
Whito of tho Ottawa to hoist tho flag on
Fort Clinoh, the first of tbo Knlionol Forts
which the ensign of tho Union baa re-
ned its proper placo,sinco the first proc-
lamation of ttiu President of the United
issued. A few scattering muakoL
shots were fired from the town by the flying
enemy, when it was diacovored tbot a rail-
road train was about to start. Cunimudoro
Druytou on board thu Ottawa, nnd Lieut.-
Commanding Slovens chased this train for

>a miles, and fired several shells
ing at the locomotiva, somo of which took
eftVcl.

It was raporicd that tho Hon. David
Yuleo. lato a Senator of thn United States,
from the State of Florida, nscaped from Ibis
train and took to tbo bush. Commander C.

0 captured Port Koyal, but Fernandina
and Fort Clinch have been given to us.

1 lake great pleasure in reminding tho
Depnrlmont that one principle and ultimate
object of the noval eipeditioQ which I hove
tho honor to command was in tbo firat con-
ception to take and keep under control the
-'■-'e line of the sea coast of Georgia,
ring, to USB the languogo of tho origi-
nal paper, " that the unval power that con-
trols tho sea const of Georgia controls tho
State of Georgia."

■"'lo report that tho fortifications at St.
ins, armed with heavy Colnmbiada, bad
abaudonad, which first reached mo at
Port lioyal, is confirmed. This being tbo
case, tho entire sea coast of Georgia is now
either actually in my possession or under
my coulroj, and thus the views of the Gov-

nment have been accomplished.

Very respuotfully, your ob't servant.

R. P. Itodgers, pushing ahead nit

lingtOQ, containing military stores, army
wogons, mules, forage, 4:c,, and fortunately
secured tho draw-bridge, whioh was held
during the night by the second launch of
tho Wabash.

Tbero wore passengers, women nnd chil-
dren, in the Darlington, and [he brutal cap-

He is 0 native of Vermont, but ho has been
a roaidoat of Florida for twenty-thi

I visited tho town. Fort Chncb, and the
earthworks on tho sea-face of the island.
It is impossible to look at theao proparationa
for a vigorous defense without being sur-

f Prised that they should havo been voluntari-
y deserted. The batteries on the north
and north-east shores are as oompleto
art can make them.

Sii ate well concealed aud protooted by

ranges of sand-hills in front, r

feet shelter for the man, and
and thoroughly coveted by tho natural
growth and by Iho varied contour of the
land, that to strike them from thu water

Duld bo the mere result of chance.

A battery of six guns, though larger, ond
affording tberefore n better mark, ia equally
welt sheltered and masked. These battorios
and the heavy guns mounted iu Fort Cliaub,
cummoud all tbo turnings of Iho main ship
channel, and lako an approaching ouamy.
Beside these there woa another battery of
four goDS on the south end of Cumborlond
Island, tho fiio of which would cross the
channel inside the bor, Tho difficulties
arising from the indirectness of the ohannol
and from the ahoalness of tho bar would
have added to the defenses by keeping tha
approaching vessels a long time o.tpoaed to
tbo fiio under creat disadvantages; and
wbon the ships of an enemy had passed all
these defensea, they would have to encoun-
ter a woll-constructed and naturally masked
battery at tho town, which commonds the
ncccss to tbo inner anchorage. Wo arc
told that Gen. Leo pronounced the place
perfectly defensible. We arc not surprised
at Ibis, if true.

FAYtTTB, Va,, March 11, 160
Editor CiiiiiiB : .Nothing of imporlt
bas transpired since uiy last, if I except tho
removal of bo 23d Regiment Ohio Volun-
teers to Kaleigb, whioU 1 tnko as indicativo
of a " lor ward movement." This pinco is
now held' by four companies of tbo 30tb
Ohio Tolunteers and tbo "Jackass Battery ;"
nnd, from present uppoarances, they will
not remain here Jong.

Tho troops in Ibo :id brigade nru in good
spirits, and their sanitary condition some-
what improved. About tho only thing tlioy
need is money. Wo bavo bad no pay for
ur months, and thero is no prospect of u
sit from tbo Paymaster.
Tbe Mahoning litgntet of tbe IJtb ultimo
beforo uic, and in it I find u " Debate in
tho Ohio Legiskturo on tho Volunteer Re-
lief Bill," in which debate thero on.' many
things i?blcli I like and moro tbnt I didikt.
It appears, from tbo debate, Ibat some mem-
bers of the Lcgisliitiiro aro endeavoring to
pass a bill for tbo relief of the fauiilies of
intcera. This, to mo, seems nothing
e Ibnn right. As I aoid before, wo havo
had a cent of pay for four months, and
while we Qvo in want of many iittlo com-
forts ond even luinries which money would
procure, thero are many families at homo
suffering for tho nacessurieii of life. I
quote from the debate ;

*' Tho order Ibis mnroing being diacuAHiou on
tbo relief Bill, Dr. Scott had Ihe door. Accord-
to bis showing, tho ono-liidr mill levy would

of the

iigiiioat Mr. Burr caniiut be accurately

to judge, not one-siilb of tho voters of
Hartfordi and certainly not balf of his po-
litical opponents, hiive manifested nn opin-
ion adverse to lii-i loynlty. I am confirmed
in my judgiiitnt by the uotion ol Mr. Welles.
Ho is much moro lamiliar nilb tbo course

and bo declines joining you in urging tbo

disloyal, by dcolrning to lake any pnvl what-

n Ibo c<

I regret very much that my decision will
cunllict with your views, nnd Iboao of many
of our most eornesl nnd Tolucd friends at
Uortford; but ji is n casein which lam

But to my subject of tbe debate
"Ur Itenmy wa) in laioc of all being done for
tho tupport of famihes of toldien thai was nec-
Fiury to keep them from ivaat, and ho was clad
Id know that thu Grta of pntriutiam were kindled,
and Ibat the Legislaturo would not forcet Ohio's
Foldierx nor their famibea. Yet ho held that tbo
balf mill would bo foand abundeotly aulTicioDl,
and Ibat if Iho State did not provide largely tho
soldier* would aeod homo more money — which,
not being spent with Ibo Sutlers, would leave tho
Boldicre loia liable to had habita io camp."

Mr. Reamy is a sensible man; yet 1 dif
with biin. If tbo Legislature intended
do anything for tbo families of voluntee
let ihcin do something that will bo felt by
tboso wbom it is intended to benefit. Sisty
cents a week would not keep a family it
wood nt tho rate it sells in Columbus, Clevo-
land, Dayton aud Clucionati; audit is (hOBo
families in tho larger cities and tswns wbo
would bo most benefitted by an appropria-
tion, liecauso nrtioles needed by tbein arc
much higher than el^owhere,

"Mr. Glisivold mnde n alatemeot, sboiviag by

asked gentlemen lo remember that when Ibey
iocreai^vd Ihe tax tbey were impoaing a weight
that would fall upon Iho poor nod thoio in mod-

Mr. a. should bear in miud the fact tho

poorraanis, asagcneriJ thing, more icUling

to pay tosOB for such a purpose than tbe

man who pnys loses enough to buy a bomo

" Mr. Flogg— Every sixty days, aaid he, in a

tho allotment proviaion, to be sent home, whereby
ninety-nine anc.hundredtha of tho men in Ihe
war, wherever they aro— whether in tho camp,
on liiB march, or standing the lono watch of tho
nisht — will remember tbeir families at homo, and
will send them money— so thot, in his opinion, tho
half mill will be nmply sulGcient."

Mr. Flagg will e.TCuso mo (?) when I ven-

"Every sixty days" we> ore to send

to send miinty until wo ffc
no nionoy for one hun/htd and twenty days,
nnd there is o fair (!) prospect of going

Hero is a ppi&tleman who occupies tbo on-
able position of being both right and
wrong ot tbo anmo time. Right so faros
tho Stato debt is concerned— wrong in the
matter of tho tbreo month's men. While
he would not increase tho Slule debt, he
would provido for men wbo are at home, wbo
naver did a day's duty in the field, and who,
wbflo their time as soldiers was running on,
wero at home on sixty days' fiirlougli, pur-
suing their daily avocations, and taking care
of tbeir families — at tbe expense und incon-
venience of men who have been nine months
irvice, somo of whom have had not a
of pay! 1 caonol seo the consistency
of Mr. Converse's action. Tho people,
rbilu tbey dislike to increaso their tiueit,
'ill willingly pay a reasonable sum to re-
eve tho necessities ot the soldier and will
ot miss tho trifle cinotr.d. The rick man
as no cnuse to grumblo even if bo be Uiiod
no cent on every dollar; for, is he not able
3 pay it! If ho is worth §50,000, can he
not afford to give $50 to Ihe support of the
needy sufferer? Will it lessen liimself in
opinion? Will ho not foci in bis
own mind, that ho has done a good act?
many men will not look at il in this
7 1 11 "■ny— tbey think moro of their dollars and
J bavo bod cents than of those who crave tbo crumbs
that fall from tbeir sumptuous tobies. Tho
only way to get at a man's heart is by way
of his purse; and it is easily told wbetbor
his treasure will bo coirupted by moths and
rust, or stolen by thieves.

But I bavo said enough on this subject,
ond will conclude il by saying, that I, ond
no doubt nil tho rank and file of tho army,
will be ever grateful to those men wbo are
endeavoring to benefit us through nur fami-
lies. May tbeir shndows never grow less,
and tbo people remember them ot tbo next

If Bfirlier nominations were made, men of

THE BATTLE IN THE VlflGINIfl VAtlEY.

WiNi'hJESTf.Jt, March 15. ISIH
The ball of the campaign on tbe Potomac
IS at length brilliantly opened at Wlii-
legter on Sunday last, and the rebels have
ffered a dreadful rovorso in the first e
counter of tho season in this department.

The object of the reconnoissanco made
by Genera! Shields to Strashurg may now
bn stated. It was to throw the enemy into
the trap which bos so fatally sprung upon
tho rebellion. Discovering tbe number i ''
poaitiou of the rebels, Genoral Shields
tired hastily, posted his men about '■
miles north of Winchester, in a few tej
as though the force was unable to attempt
pursuing Jackson's forces, and there, after
tho withdrawal of General Wilhams' divis-
ion, awaited the e&'ect of bis movement up-
on the enemy. The result showed that tho
scheme entirely succeeded. Aa soon as tbe
rebel General Jackson heard that the di-
vision had moved towards CoatrovUle. he
immediately took up his march to Winches-
ter. In tbe meantime he had received rein-
forcements, and Generals Longstreet and
Smith, of the robel army, had Ibeir com-
mands united to that of the boasted Stone
Wall Jaokaoo, So prompt and uueipect'
ed was tbo attack of the enemy, that it look
our Generals entirely by surprise, but tvi
rything was reudy for the emergency.

Ou Saturday afternoon, at about a quarli
past two o'clock, our advanced pickets c
tho Strasburg road dsoovered the rebel ca'
airy under tbe madcap Asbby about half
mile beyond them, reconnoitering tbe wool.
on both aides of the turnpike, and steadily
advoncing. Our pickets consisted of a few
men of tbe Fourleenlb Indiana infantry at
that point, and Ihey fell back half u mile to
tho homletof Kemslown, lour miles from
Winchester. The rebels observing oui
pickets fsll back, were confirmed in tbe be-
lief that our forces here did not exceed five
thousand men. Tbey then eave chase.-
Comiug up with our men, Asliby cried a1
the top of his voice, " There ihey are boys,
now give them hell." Steadily did tho
troopers advance as our men wheeled to aiii
and tire. That fire seat many of them reel
ing from their toddles, and threw the res:,
into such confusion that before they could
again be ralUed for a charge, our gallant
little band of infantry was beyond the reach
of their power, without having tost a man
killed or wounded. Meanwhile skirmishing
progressed on other points along our ad
vancej line, and our pickets were every'
where rallying ou our reserve. General
Shields hearing of tbe advance of the rebel
cavalry, supposed it to be a manceuvro
, Asbby alone for the purpose of wntohj
our movements. As tbey were approaching
so boldly and so closely, however, he order-
ed four advanced companies of infantry, en-
gaged in protecting the supply train, lo ral-
ly to the support of tho more advanced
pickets, and try lo hold the rebels in check
till he could move down the division.—
Theae four companies were made up of one
from the .Maryland First, one from the
Twenty eighth Pennsylvania, one from the
Forty. eiith Pennsylvania and one from tbo
Twenty-eighth New York. Their regimenis
had already marehed under General Wil-
liams. A baiicry of anlUery was also or-
dered forward, and GeneralSniolds. after or-
dering out tbe division, rode to the front.
accompanied by his staff. While engaged

it was our policy lo postpone a battle, in

batteries of artillery were announced arriv

ociferous and prolonged cheers which

lot now long delayed. Tho enemy ad.
vanced his army, which now consisted of
sixteen regiments of infantry, numbering
ll.OOOmen; five bntlerieHof artillery, with
total of twenty-eight field pieces, and
three battalions of horse, under Ashby an^
Stewart. Ula line of btatle extended about
mile on tho right of the village of Keams-
town, and a mile and three-quarters on the
left of it, and the village lay on the road
between the rebel right and centre. There

Our most advanced reeimenC was the Eighth
Ohio, of General Tyler's Urigode, and on
it tbe rebels made a furious onslaught,
ibout half-post ten o'clock A. M. on Thurs-
day, with the intention of turning our right
flank. The Ohio Eighth mot them gallant-
ly, withering them hke autumn leaves be-
fore the breath of winter, by their deadly
fire of rifles. Five several limes did the
enemy emerge from tbe woods and from be-

tho Thirteenth Indiana, Seventh Ohio, and
a battery of (he Fourth regular artillery,
under Captain Jeuks, had a feint made u]

feint on tho left was a heavy fire of arlillery

Our battery replied, silencing those of the

Shields, who received accounts of the pro.

:> charge upon the enemy. That wris a
awful. chargH, The left of the enemy pri
pared desperately to repel our gallant
troops, but their rush was as irresistible m
the tide in the Kay of Fundy. Previous It
this timu our lino of bottle had been aome-

■hat changed. The Eighty-fourth Penn
aylvanla reinforced our right, and also l
battery of artillery. Our whole force now
engaged was about six thousand men, while
that of tbo enemy, at the lowest estimate,
eight thousand. The rebels had also chang-
ed their line, and extending both tbelr winge,
presented a concave front lo our army.
They had also reinforced ibeir left wing,

lid the charge lo bo made by our right was

II important in its coniequences, unit, at
iree o'clock, depended the fate of tho en-
tire battle. The gallant Tyler led the
charge, sword in hand, at Ihe head of the
" le Tbe rebels fired from the woods with

llllery ond small arms, while our men ad-

III ced against their murderous showers of
lead and iron, returning few shots and re-
serving the fire. Up to this time the ormieB
had not been much nearer to each other than
three hundred yards, unless in some few in-

es. The wood was soon cleared at the
of the bayonet, our men discharging
iheir pieces at twenty ond even five yarda
distance from the rebels, and then dashing
at them with the bayonet. The rebels fought
well, however. They cunlOBted tbe ground
ot by foot, aed marked every yard of it
ith blood. Rotlriog behind their stono
wall, on tbe ridge, our men Jumped over
after them, and drove (hem along in the
greatest confuelon, and with great slaughter
upon iheir cenlrc. The panic communi-
cated. Kimble ordered a charge along the
~:hoI(' line, and for b &hort time the fighting
'US nuiht desperate. The roar of (be cnn-

e Col. SuUiv

I loE

'er heard, unless in ooco-
sional bursts offitful oiplosions, and the
rattle of musketry wasmoro boisterous than
ever, and sounded like tho noise mado by a.
very close thunder clop, except tbat it was
' kT^l ""d continuous. Tho rout of the
rebels had fairly commenced, however, and
twoof their guns and four caissons were now
ours, and though many of them turned and
lired again aud again at our pursuing host,
many more throw away musketsand bayonets
without hesitation. Darkness and the os-
trome fatigue of our troops, however, soved
the enemy for the time and we retired aboot
two miles and bivouokeil till yesterday
momiDg,

At daybreak General Shields ordered the
rebel position to be attacked, and tho enemy
after replying by n few sbota from his artil
lery, continued his retioat. MeanUm

replying by n few sbota from his artib-

, , continued his retioat. MeanUn
Genoral Banks, who had been at Harper's
Ferry, arrived, and taking command of the
troops in person, is now continuing tho pur-
suit with about ten tiouaaud men, and at
the latest accounts had pressed the rebels
beyond Middleburg, cutting off mony strag-
glers and pressing the enemy vory aoroly.
The object is to capture his whole force if
possible. It was not till yesteirday morning
that any of the force of Gen. Wiltiams ar-
rived on the field, and then they were loo
late to participate in the action. They
joined in tho ohuao. The loss of tho enemy
n killed and wounded will foot un nbont
300 men, of which 32.1 were kilU. The
lumber of prisoners taken from them is
!3C. These figures are independent of
ivhat they have lost, and will lose in tho
pursQit. Tho regiment which lost most oo
the side of the rebels was tho Fifth Virginia,
killed so far as ascertained is
less than 100, and about 200 of oar men
ided. Though the enemy had n
much larger force, four pieces of cannon
than our army, the selection of fighl-
round and every other advantage, yet
0 trophies of the occasion belong lu
the Union army.

There were many deeds of heroism psr-
formed on the battle field. While tho fifth
Ohio was charging against the enemy, tho
color bearer was five times shot down ; yet

ither ioatantly replaced him at tho risk
of his life. Tho last color benior of the
private named T. B. Isdell. The
flag staff was broken, yet tho glorious ban-
ner never ceased to float in triumph over
tills gallant regiment.

The rebels had an Irish bnttolliou of one
hundred and fifty men, of whom forty were
killed on the field, and nearly all tho rest
wounded.

The losa on our side was heaviest in the
Eiebty-fOurlb Pennsylvania regiment. Of

' five companies of three hundred men

all engaged, they lost Col, Murray, as
dashing and brave an officer as ever drew a
sword, one captain, ono lieutenant, twenty-
privates and non commissioned officers
killed, and siity-threo wounded. Tho loss
in the Eighth nnd Fifth Ohio regiments la
about seventy-five nnd sixty, respectively,
killed and wounded.

Lieutenant Colonel Thoburu, of the Third
Virginia, is among the wounded on our aide.
These are the only field oBicers killed or
wounded in the Union forces.

Tbe rebels carried no kaapsacks nitb
them into action, and all the rations in, tbeii
haversacks was a small cake of bread to
each man. They counted to a certainty on
capturing Winchester. Tho only wagona
they brought with them were provision
nsgons. 'I'his explains how it was that
they did not lose much besides arms in Ihei^

The battle field after the struggle was a

sight to be seen and remembered. The

night was dark and cold. After the bsttls

the ambulances wore busily engnged n-

moving the wounded. The enemy carric j

with tbe dead, and their sufferings before

the field yesterday after the wounded were

fragments and frightfully mangled by tho

round shot and shell, and others simply but

Speaker, I do not doubt tho porfcot siaceri-

President has prcsentoiHt for our cou-
eiderution ; but allh'iogb I do not doubt that.
I ba/e not bcc-n ablo to bring myself to tho
belief that it ia o mcasuro esaotly suited lo
tbe times.

Mr. Speaker, 1 will say nothing about tbo
loyalty of tbe State of Kcntuoky. 1 .havo
nu disposition to boa^t of bcr. What pho
'has done is known to yuu all. She baa
atood in hor proper oharaotor. And wby.
I aak, do jou Piuoi of Kentucky more than
aho has already done to establish ber loyal-
ty 1 Has aho not parted with all her aii-
oicnt allies — with all her uatural kiadrcd in

ceaOed, fell iolo rob^liion—Virginia, where
aur kinsmoQ where by Ibauaauds — Efu-
tooky stood firm for the Uuion, otid aho has
stood 50 over since. But this resolution,
or (ho argument Dsed hero in its support,
seom to require of ber [lOW, as further evi-
dcnoe of hor fidelity to tbo Constitalioo,
that sbo shall surrender up hrr dumeatio in-

her? Is she a auspaoted thing, that tbo
North or tbo South should apprehend that
■ho will forget bcr duty to herself, her
truth, and her integrity ua a Stute of this
Union, and require bor to givo further
picdgtrt! And is it to be underotood that
the slavo Stales, as ono after another thuy
may be mindful of tbeir duty, and return to
the slQudard of tbe Uuion, are lo give tbo
eome sort of pledge by abaadoning their
domi-itio institutions, nnd f,avinjj iheni up I
Is this right ? Is this goori faiUi ?

But Ibo nrsmncnt is. that Ketitucl-y
ought to surri'uder ber slav ir.stituliDn by

f anlculorly to (he South, that sbo noviT

South will not wage thia war with tho carao
spirit; that it is that hopo which bustains
tier, and you demand Ibis nleasuro oa our

of Ibo South. What right has tho Sautb lo

It la not a very welootne policy to those

Mr. LOVEJOV, — 1 deairo inasktbogen-
imun if ho thinks it would bo unconHtitii-
inal if Kentucky should emanoipalo bar
slaves, on condition that tho Federal Gov -
ernment shall pay her a oci'loin nmonul of
onoy?

Mr- Crittesdi:.-*. — Mr. Speaker, I will
iswer tbo gentleman's question. I am not
prepared to say tbut it ivuuld bo uuoonstitu-
tional. I Dm not prepanid to give an opin.
upon that question- To bnaure, I should
very thankful lo anybody who would pay
my constituents, it they should bo required
lo DDiaueipato tbeir Elavcs, or should do it
willingly — who would aid tbcin by full com-
pensation, or even partial compensation. I
" "o exception to tlio proffer. As to tho
istitulional power lo carry that promlso
J oiecution by appropriating money here
to pay for llio slaves, on that question I do
uot desiro to give nny opinion.

But that is not nil. Tlio gentleman looks
it tbo matter iu n very limited way. When
this Govornmeut makes n proposition ol
(his sort, it is oquivulentlo au Invitation,
and by such invitation agitation may bo in.
truduood at a timo nbert wo want no agita-
tion. This may bothofir^tatopfoBucbagila-
'''- and not having bad timo to hear from

ionstitucnls on tho subjuol. wo ato only
apprehen.'lvo that il: may lead us into that
sortof agitation at the present time, when
of nil things we wish to b(i treo from any
suoh agitation.

Wo havo given yon assurances enough.
Wo have giren you all iho assurances that
ought lo bo asked. Wo havo given oa mnob
as any of yon. Thoro is not a Stale of the,
Union that has given more, and I think I
may say, iu no buiistful spirit, that no State
bus given os prcst nsauiancfs. No Stale
baa bad tbo same diOioultics to conlond witb.
Ho Slalo has made so many social nod per-
sonal saotiC cot— sacrifices of kindred and
rclationa and friondsbipa of Ibo dearest kind.
We have done all that. Kcniuoky bos tukeji
her position, and intends lo maintain it;
she uiaiutdins it upon principles bighi^r than
any consideration of property; she baa
taken it at tho saoriGoe of property, too,
for her trade was all with tlie South.

But tho geuUeman says that this will
break tho hopes of tho rebellion, and that
otherwise tho South will compel you to to-
cogni-^e her independent government. So
says ray friend from New York ; and this
measure proposed is only lo prevent Kea-
tunky and tbo border Stales from acceding
to that independent southern government
when it shall force itself upon our ackniiwl-
ment. Sir, I hope that that day ia never lo
oome. It is too remolo a poasibility to
found auy argument upon. If that time
ever dues come, when thoea twenty millions
of people shall bo oontent to see this great
Government bnfken up; and if, loukiug for-
ward boyoud that infamous and disgraceful
day. wu shall bo told that thoro ia a fear un
the part.of the North that tho border Stntoa
will then join Iho Southern Coufederooy, if
yuu permit that day lo come, I ahull not
Bual to bo with you. I fre<-ly tell you so.
I shall bo ready to separate from you then
— not till then. Am we reorsanlly lo sub-
mit to havo this country broken into pieces,
aud then dare to think of things that Sire to
happen afterwards I No sir. tbi-re is no
thereafter; thero is no future beyond that.
I will not look into it. And yot the argu-
meut used hero to day is that we shall,
without consideration, without knowing
what will buppeu to this mcasute in Ken-
tuiiky or the other border Sluloa, base this
meii^ui'i only upon things that may happen
in the future, Ihut may happen nftor that
day of infamy. My policy docs not rooob

Mr. Olin- — 1 havo heard enough to jua-

I must havo been very muobmisapprebend-
must havo very uiuoh miaspuken, if I

however, say this, or inland l.i say it, that

That is nil I object to; and ho fur-

hos DO right to suppose suoh a case. Tho
supposition of sncti a case, and tbe presen-
tation of such thoDghls to the American
peopls, is unjost to ouaselres, and unjust to
them, Flow can it over beoomo neoessary

the question of the doclrine of confiaoatjon

ceediugly that I 6od myself in the posi-
n which roquiraa mn to vote against this
Eolulioo. Ihero is one circumstance con-
nDo(ed with tbo position of tho resolution
hero which seems tu inu a litllo nnlortunate.
The PrcBidenl, iu tbn inossago in which ho
recommends tho adoption of this resolution
by Congress, eiprosscs many senlimcnta
ond doetrincs in which [ heartily coaour.
But it seems as if au effort was being mode
here to foparato tho resolution from tbo
context of tho raeaaago. It appears horo
w without aocomponimeut, simply as
■esolulion presented by tho gonilsmon
from New York, (Mr. Hoacoo Conkling,)
To bo suro, it is in the words of the mes-
suge, but there Is no reference to tho mes-
sage which accompanied it ; there is no ref-
or«noD lo tho views expressed by Ihn Presi-
dent in that message. Thcro is a deolara-
tioa iu the message of tho I'resideat that
tho people of tbe slave holding States have
au interest in tbeir slares, u property la
their slaves, and a property of wbioh they
ot be divesled by tho act of this Fed-
Go vernrocnt, a property nhifh yon
cannot (ako from Ihem. I couour in that
eotiment, aud if this resolution is to pa:
Ihia hoily, 1 regret to -see it snatched froi
its proper eouuectlon. It is snatched froi
its context as it appears beforo us, and
Domes hero simply as the resolution of the
momber from Now York. It is not th
L'losldeut's resolution. However perfec
tbo copy may be, it is nut tho Prosidenf
solution, bccauBO you mako no refferenc
the message which acooropauied ii-
Kow, sir, ua the President tateuded il

confidence ia his integrity. I avow
conSdenco in bia purity of intention. ]
lievo ho moans right; and it affords
pleasuro lo concur witli bim iu most uf the
measures recommended by him; but I ru-
gvettbat in this my oonsoience uadjadg
uiant will not permit it. I beliovo the
President would nol, as ho says be would
not, interfere. Ho would leave it to thi
choioo of tho States to say whether they
will enter upon tho policy of tmaaoipatiuD
ornot; butdonoti know that although tho
President will abstain from interfering, s
lur OS ho is concerned, there are many oihei
who, knowing It ia a favurito pnlloy of hi: .

tho speaker lo his audience. Tho

Sicca of artillery, thu report of which hud
isturbt>d the quiot of the Potomac.
When Mr- Phillips aroso lo speak, ho
walked tothofuot-lights umidst a v.db>yof
hisses wbioh, liku ihetlrst, was drowned in
tbe cheers of his ftionds. He said —

I have been iuvited, ladies nud gentlo-
eu, Vi speak to you on thu war — tho con-
vulsion which has divided Ibo Union for □
year and ihreatona. in tbo opinion of some,
to divide it forever. No more acrious sub-
can eugago tho all«nliou of tbo Amcr-
i people, for I beliovo within six months,
laps within thu coming hundred days,
tho people, are to docido what tho fu-
I of these thirty-four States is lo be. —

Ho resumed ; To. day ibo oonlest tali, -
tbo form of battle. Tbe war is nothing t.
mo OS an Abolilionist. It has no more iri-
Iprosl to mo oa aooh than a novel has to yo.i
after you have found Ibe hero and heroine
happily murried on tho last pago. Wbol-
iivor your opinion may be. mine ia thai
slavery has rooeivcd its deathblow in Dm
houso of its friends. Tho American pcoph.
have opened that page of their history which
will raoord tho death of slavery. In dso
liuie and after n reasonable inlcrvul slaver?
will die- The cry bus boen, "Cotton is
King." Souib Carolina dragged Lyoai
and Lancaster to her feet, andsaid, "Babies,
keep quiet." She bos starved them fur
cloven months, and ut lost accounts they
nere doing quite welL

Another iden was that the North woulJ
not L-fht. South Carolina, tried that on Id
miniature, when shti pitted Missouri agajoit
Kansas, When tbfir orchards werO grab-
bed up, the YHnliLOK wont homo to Nfln
Eagluud and brgged ri&«s. L«t the war
continue twenty four months, and MoClsl-
Un will be a jayhawker. The third idea of
tbo death of slavery ia derived from the
messnga of thn President. I believe tbs .
Preaidi'ut lo be an honest man, but a very
slow ono- Ho deaires to stand Iwtivetn tSs
purtii-s, and finding which way Iho lido was
setting, ho warned the Border Stales tbit
now wa« there lime to sell.

Mr. Phillips continued lo apeak fo.- over
no hour, but tho meUe in tho second liei
oreated so much confusion that wo ehoulil
not bu iihlo to do bim justice, did no at.
tempt to report himfurtber.

These resolutions passed the Sen

jveruor Tod himself viewed it,
III tbe House tbe preriou,! qutsttnn was
called to cut off all remarks from tbo Dem-
ocratic side, and thus gagged through Ibnt
body without debate. No sooner, howevt
bad this occurred, than the Reverer.d Ci

A motion was mnde onSuturcnyaflerm
lo reconsider, but It was ascertained that
esolutions wer,> enrolled and passed
from the reach of a reconsideration. Butoa
isual, in all such silly work, Iho Republicans
oond tbemeolvea divided, nod it was neces-
sary to call on the Democrats to come to

and na adjournnient'took placf. over tho

who favored it. This debate continued ua-

night, after the greater pari of three days
being spent thereon.
Tho debate brought tt-i light many oitra-

The old saying that it is an ill wind Ibat

about this sudden redemption from sin, of
these two papers and hundreds of others,

plished in favor of " free speecb," in briog-

fhets — but when oonfoundcd with tlieao old

'u holding bond men aod bondwomen,
tho New TeaUiniont positively affirms
that Chriel'a kiugdom ia not of thi* world;

Now for an illuslrotiou. flolding tbat so

Hot, under our DlMnoorotio Government

— rapid .■jtrides were made n6t only to niili-

Whilo tho license system broke up all dog-

ivil la\o to aid in doing wbut ohristian
moo had failud lo do, tho nation has
plunged into civil war, luid tho very
foundation of civil and religious liberty en-
dangered. Under lbs now dispensation of
uniling politics with religion, nearly every
old Federal reprobate got reUgioa. and re-
formed— from bad lo worso. A now gospel
was preucbed — instead of "lovo your oiio-
mies. and do good to them that dospltcfully
uao you," Iho iujunolion was, "Ilato your
noigbbor, for Iho lovo of God." Tho North- I
orn clergy set np tho'nogro/i'fr.'nBanldo),

Southern olorgy set up the negro us a slate,
and fell down and wor.shipod at ila shrino!
Hotb ignored the troo gospel — both grieved
away tho Holy Spirit — and tho spirit of ovil
provailed, until God gave up tbo people to
their own passions — ond bulb threw avray

people will submit to sucb gross violatioD
of their sacred rights by this untoward abo-

oroblo body, dopreonting the doctrines pro-
mulgated by the abolitionjet.s, (I need not
repeat them to you,) but suffice it to say
that those resolutions woro passed by 17
ayes, noes G. Mr. Lincoln voted against
each and every one of tbe resolutions. I
give yon one :

Rdotetd, That the right of property

Tho roBt are iu keeping with Ihc above,
yot Mr. Lincoln, under tbo solemnity of bia
official oath to support tbe Constitution of
tbo United Statea, and the Constitution of
tbe -State of Illinois, voted no on tbe nbovo
resolulion. But what morSi just look at
bia speeches with Mr. Douglas, and then his
messages, all tending to the one grand idea,
the overthrow of tho iuslitutionof slavery,
and tbia tho South cannot endure, for their
rights has been adjudicated by tbe highest
tribunal known to our form of governaient,
null it is simply ridiculous to suppose that
the Union can be Diaintained in any other
way than in conformity with that dooisioo.
At lest, then, and in conclusion, we havo
reached tbe culminatingpointof the wildest,
the most sen^ele^^n the most disgusting, and
withal tho most dnngerous delusion, that
over aiUicted an intelligont people, or throat-
oned to destroy Ibe peaoe. order, ond safety
of human society. Whatever the course

tho legislation of sovereign .States, hence-
forth, oud forever, the hiatus of the negro,
bis relation to the white uitizeni, and the
rights of the latter in respect to "slave"
property, are nowclenrly dcfiucd within the
Federal jurisdiction. And this decision
must be accoptcd and sustained by tbe
Northern masses, or there must be disunian
oud dismembcTment of the Union, for the
States and people havingtbis negro element
in their midst, cannot, even if tDoy would,
consent to any compromise in this respect,
and, tborGfora, if the northern people, led
astray by tho ogents and dupes of the ene-
mies of Democracy, refuse to abide by it,
there ;s for the South no alternative but
disunion, and tbe establishment of a new
confederacy, in conformity with the wants
and necoasitics of southem society. It re-
maina, then, for the honest and patriotic
citizens of the North who woald avoid this
calamity of disunion lif it Las not already
occurredil and save for tbcir offsprings the
glorious institutions won by tbo blood aai
sacrifice of their fathers, to abandon the
falsa mental habits impoaed ou them by tbe
enemies of these institutions, and, occept-
ing the fined and immutable truths of the
Dred Scott decision, to regard as enemies
to tbo peace of tbe country, and indeed to
tbe safety of society, all those who, under
the pretence of negro liberty, would render
liberty for the white man impossible.

tious clamor, arrayed thomselvos under their
banners, thus organising n treasonable pow-
■, which, for the time being, sliflel aod
ippressed the nntbority of the Federal
Government,

In this condition of affairs, it devolved
upon tbo President, bound by his official
oath, to preserve, protect und defend the
Constitution, and charged by the law with
the duty of suppressing insurrection nnd
domestic violonoe, to resifit and repel this
ibellious force by the military arm of tbe
Government, and thus to ro-estobliah the
Federal authority. Congress, assembling
at OD early day. found bim engoged in the
aotive diichorgo of this momenlouB and re-
sponsible trust. That body cnmo promptly
to bis aid, and, while supplying him witi
treasure nnd arms lo an extent "that would
previously have been considered fabulous,
(boy at tbe some time, wilh almost absolute

waged on their part in any spirit of opproB-
sion, nor for any purpose of conquest or

or interfering with tbo righta or eBtobLiab«3
institutions of the States, but to defend nnd
maintain the supremacy of tbo Constitution
and to preserve tho Union wilh all tbo dig-
ity, equality, and tights of tbo several
tates unimpaired; and that as eoen as these
objocls ore accomplished, tbo war ought to
cense,' ' In this Bpirit, and by such co-opo-
rotion, has tho President conducted this
mighty contest, until, as Commandor-in-
Cbief of the anoy, he has caused Ibo Nn-
ional flag to float undisputed over tho Cop-
tol of our Stale. Meanwhile tbe State
gOTemment has disappeared. Tbo Eiecu-
tive bus abdicated; the Legislature has
dissolved, tbe Judiciary is in abeyance.
Tbo great Ship of State, freighted with ile
precious cargo of human interests and hu-
man hopea, its sails all set. and ita glorious
flag unfurled, has been suddenly abandonej
by her officers and munitinous crew, and
left to float at the mercy of tbe wind, and
to be plundered by every rover upon tbe
deep. Indeed the work of plunder has i;l-
ready commenced. Tbe archives have been
deseoraled; the public property stolen nnd
destroyed: tbe vaults of tbo Statu Bank
violated, and its treasures robbed, including
the funds carefully gathered and conse-
crated for all time to the. inetructiun of out
children.

In such a lamentable crisis, tbe Govcm-
mont of the United SUtes could nol be un-
mindful of its high constitutional obligation
to guarantee to every State in this Union a
Republican form of government an obliga-
tion which every Stoto has a direct and im-
mediate interest in baviog observed toward
every other ,State. and from wbiob, by n..
action on tho port of tbepooploinany Stale,
can tho Federal Government bo obsolvcd.
A Kepublican form of government, in oon-
HonouCB with the Constitution of the United
States, is one of the fundamonlal conditions
political existence, by which every
part of the country is alike bound, and from
which no part can escape. This obligation
the NalionalGovernment is now attemptinf
to discharge. I have been appointed in th(-
'isence of theroeuiarond established Stutf
ithoritiea. as Military Governor for the
no being, to preserve the public property
of tbe .State, to give tbe protection of law
actively enforced to ber citizens, and, as
speedily as may be, to restore ber govern
ment to tho same condition as before thi-
isting rebellion.

In this grateful but arduous undertaking.
I shall avail myself of all the aid that may
I afforded by my fellow citt^iens. And for
is purpose 1 respectfully, but earnestly,
vite all tbe people of Tennessee, desirous
willing to see a restoration of her onci-
itGovemment. without distinction of parly
liliations. or past political opinions, or
action, to unite with me, by counsel and co-
iperalive acc-ncy, to accompliBb this great
>ud. I find most, if not all of tbe offices,
both State and Federal, vacated, either by
itual abandonment, or by the action of the
cumbents in attempting to eubordtnato
tbcir functions to a power in hostility to tbe
fundamental law of the State, and subvcr-
of her National allegiance. These offi-
must be filled temporarily, until the
StAto shall he restored so far to iU accas-
tomed quiet that the people can peaoeabty
at tbe ballot-box, and select agents
of their own choice. Otherwise anarchy
would prevail, and no man's life or property
would be safe from tbe desperate and un-
principled.

1 shall, therefore, aa early as practicable,
designate for various positions under the
State and County Governments, from among
my f«!low-citizenB. persona of probity nnu
■ itelligence. ond bearing true allegiance to
.je Conslitotion and Government of tbo
United States, who will execute tho func-
of their respective offices, ontil their
places can be filled by the action of tbe peo-
ple. Their authority, when their appoint-
ments Ehall have been mode, will according-
ly be respected and observed.

ho people themselves, the protection
of tbo Government is extended. .^U their
rights will be duly respected, and their
wrongs redressed when made known. Thoae
who through the dark and weary night of
the rebellion bavo maintoined their allegi-
ance to tbe Federal Government will bf
honored. Tbe erring and misguided willb''
welcomed on Iheir return.

And while it may become neceegary, ia
vindicating tbe violated majesty of tho law.
and in reasserting its imperial sway, topon-
iab intelligeol and consoious treason in high
place!, uo merely retaliatory or vLndicaliTi-
policy will be adopted. To those, especial-
ly, who in a private, unoffioial capacity bavr
assumed an ntlitude of hostility to tbe Gov-
ernment, a full nnd complete amnesty for all
s und deeluralions is offered upon
condiliuo of their again yiel£og
themeelvefl peaceful citiiens to the just a3-
premacy of the laws. This 1 adTiae them
to do for their own good, add for the peoc-
ond welfore of our beloved .State, eodcort'l
to me by the associations cf long and act-
ive years, end by the enjoyment of her
bigbeat honors.

Tbo following which tto take from Ibe
'orUvwuUi (O.) Tim'!, of labt Saturday,
should aauso the Legislature to aot at once
tho thirty or forly thousand petitions of
their constituents, for a law to prohibit tbo
introducing of blacks into our State. The
people should also renew their aotion on tha
subject, or Ohio will bo madu tbo oonimon
depot of these negroes from evory quarter.
The Government has got an olepbaot on its
banda lis wo prediolud, and now to get said
dophant oot of its way, it bos commenced
ibipping it into Ohio and turning it loose
upon our oitiEOOS !

Fifty or one hundred thousand of tUoso
blacks thrown into Ohio, would produce a

'il commotion that nil good men should

ive lo avoid ; and the only way lo do it,

to adopt measures at once to prohibit

their settling within tbo limits of our Stale.

As Mr. OuLIN well said in tho debate on
tbe Gu.sXKLB resolutions, tho record of tho
Domoorata is right ond satisfaotory, to
at least, and now let them make their
record on this negro bnsiuesa, and if the
ttopublicans continue lo bug Sambo to their
bosoms. WD will go to the people and tost

0 arc surprised that .Secretary Ciiabe

Ibe shipment of these negroes to Ohio. He
has trouble enough brewing without adding

other long lists of grievances. Read what

Mr. KorrOR—DeaT Sir: Undoubtedly
111 have, ore this, seen a number of com-
iinioations from Ibis flection of couDtry,
purporling to come from good loyal oiti-
is, and "oitizen toldiers." These individ-
spnintonlyonosidoof thnpieture, (that
black enough) or more properly honey
tho thing over to Creole a false impression
abroad, You will do me a fuvor by allow-
through tho medium of your excel-
lent paper, to lay a fair and candid state-
of tbo foots in the case, before tho

, in tho Grst place, lo ,-,late my
tbo opinion of many others of
all parties, that the question of loyalty or
disloyalty, was merely n pcoteit for thu out-
;oaceBl the real motive that insti-
gated tho aot, nud tbo entire pruc-eduro will
bslantially fiupport that opinion. In fact
tbero are but a few, even now, who charge
my paper with advocating trenS'in, and oven
that few base their charges upon its coarse
before I bad any connection wilh it,
but without foundation. Tho soldiers saj
anti-abolition, and hence, a treasonable
sheet— n very atnsibU argument, if it can
be proven that Greeley or Garrison and
their doctrines nrosynonymous with Union ;
otbcrwiso it would leave room for a slighl
difference of opinion among the American
people, Tbo real motive is solely of a pri-
1 and pecuniary character, which I do
deem oipediont to revert to at present,
but which will bo developed in due season.
About II o'clock, on tbe night of tbe lOih
St., a party of between thirty uud forty
soldiers from Port Riley, entered tbo town,
' irstinto my office, with tbe aid of on axe,
id while a portion stood guard with revolv-
s and other weapons, the remainder broke
up aud strewed almost tho entire conlents
Df the office into tbe street, with tbe excep-
tion of " one Unabridead Weh?lor,'' writing
material and other similar valuabU's, which
they took away with them. They then fell
into line, culled the roll, and ntarted off on
the "double quick," unmolested by the citi-
zens, eomo of whom tboy kept under guard
until they left. Before leaviug, bowovor,
thoy ordered me to leave tho countrr with-
in twenty-four hours, or tbey would hang
mo nud burn my office.

The next day a meeting of the citizens
IS held, independent of party; a President
id Secretary were appointed from amoug
the leading Republioansof the city, and tbe
meeting was unanimous in condemning tbe
outrage, Cuptnin Graham, commander of
tbe Fort, was waited upon, and ho informed
they could point out
the perpetrators nf the act, be would deliver
them up. Tho Committee wont over lo the
Fort at "muster," but failed lo recognise
any of tho parties. Tbo proceedings of
■' " ' (ig, as well OB another held next

published iu Iho Univn, and a
Committee appointed to call another meet-
ing for Saturday, I5th inst.

A meeting, pursuant lo call, was held on
Saturday, and officers to preside ahosen from
tho Rppublioon party, (this was intended,
stated, to show that "all honest nencon-
mned tbe outrage.") At this meeting
mo twenty-five or thirty soldiers took
part, wbo introduced resolutions of their
own drafting, in opposition to tbo resolu-
tions offered by the citizens — these resolu-
tions wore to bo sent lo General Hunter, nt
that time commander of this Department at
Fort Leavenworth. Tbe citizens" resolu-
tions were adopted, in spile of opposition
and tho soldiers' vote, and in connection
with tho resolutions, a copy of the files uf
tbe Kansoi Frontier was also ordered lo be

That night the soldiers camo hack, us I
waH previously informed, with tho intention
of taking my life; tbey riddled the upper
part of Iho FronlieT building, wbeio I usu-
ally elept, with carbine and pistol bullets,
and completely demolished the press, doors,
windows, dec, of tho ofiice, end fired indis-
criminately at every oitizen they suw iu tho
street, aud severely wounded a Ur. Wood
of Ibis city. When thoy left, tbey came
near flgbting among Ihemaelvos, because
ono of ihem called another by name during
tho time thoy were in town. There is a ru-
mor afloat, to the effect, that some of our
citizens fired at tbe soldiers whllo in town,
but this is evidently an iavcution of their
own, as it is positively asserted that no
weapons were usod except by soldiers ; ot
least nono but citisens have shown any
marks of violence ; but had tbo citirons been
able to procure arms and ammunition, I
have no doubt but that tbey would have got
it to their hearti' eonleni — notbiog could bo
found but a fuw pepper-boi pistols and ruaty
shot guns, and not enough ammunition for
but u few ot them. Since then tbey have
threatened every Democrat in tho county
and vicinity, and eveu extended thd'r threats
to those Republicans who took part in the
meotlng in opposition to them.

Captain Graham was again waited upon
by a committee of citizens, wilh the honor-
able Mayor of Junction at their head. The
Captain stated that he would use his powers
to provent tho soldiers from potting their
threat against ppaccablo oitieena into execu-
tion. Tho soldiers (to I am credibly in-
formod.) hold a meeliog, aud resolved to
piotool each other agninat arrest or any
other process that might ho attempted by
the oitiEPns or bv their ofGcers.

S-ma forly or fifty soldirrs went lo Island
Cily, un tlio 17th iust., and mode oonsider-
ro. Captain Graham

ordered out a porUpn of anr>tber company,
hut some of them refused to fire u'

tbo

Come, Mr. Abolitionist, come wilh nie,
and lot us take u airoU up street. I detest
your principles— " impntlial freedom" for
tbo nogro in tho social and political world ;
tbe result of which is omalgomailon, with
its ooncomilnnt horrors — a re.iult worse than
dentb to a free nnd enlightened people, if
anything can bo worse ; yet I think you nro
not so wholly- lost to every sense of shnino
tbat you cannot ho reolaim>:d.

You osk who BTo the tenants of tbat mis-
erable shanty, whoso windows ore broken
and stuffed with rnga, across Ibo way. It is
the nbode of n poverty stricken, idiotic fooi-
ily, the picture of despair, objects of pity.
Lot us cross tho tbreshhold of that misera-
ble family; poverty stares us in iho face
from every corner— every corner except
one— nnd fron^ that corner the slare comca

framamujalrochild, the offspring of an illicit

intereourso of ila hulf-idlolic mother with a
hlnck roscal— Aer oit^i hTOtha-iii-laiD. Bo
onrofiil, my friend, hoiv you reproach tbo
black-hearted, block- skinned villain; tbid
is only the fruit of tho practical carrying
out ol your ideos— tho fruit thol naturally
sprincs from tho fldvoncemeut of your po-
lilioiil principles — besides, I am only half
through. Not contented wilb bringiug one
while gicl, the partner of hii bosmn, down
to his own level, thu black villain must work
the ruin of— I was going to faj—anollur,
but tbo tale of woe would be hut half told—
TWO OTHERS, tho aiatevs of bis wife. Roll
not your eyes up in holy horror; Ihcsa are
facts, uuplcasaut. but, alas .' loo true. You
cannot fail to .'ee that such is but thenaluraJ
efti'ot of Iho leaoliinES of abolitionism ; you
have it demonsIralecT hero before your own
pyo3, and willfully bliud indeed uro tbe eyea,
that will not see. ^

You did not intend thnt eucb fihould be
tho result. All true enough, I admit ; nei-
ther did the petty thief intend lo end his
days inside of prison walle, or the murderer
intend to espialo his Crimea on the Hcaffold.
The one is as sensible as Ihe other. Amal-

i)iiy!~irbo. lion shnll \vc Re-
store (hem (o (heir Tim Love !

This war is based on tho idea tbat the.
Union men South were "dragged out of,
Ibo Union nolens volcns by their ombitiousl
leaders nnd wish to comn bacE. but can't'
until their lenders are wbipt and hung or
baniabed." This is ibo profession. This
is the sugnr-coaliog of tbo policy at least.
For, once convince rensouublo men, rcnf,
Union men, who have not Ibe disease whiohj
you have properly called •' nigger nu the,
brain," who are houest in Ibis " war for the
Union," and whose object is not either to
'• put slavery in course of ultimate extinc-
tion," or to L-ralify a viudiolivo haired or
sore-bended jealousy, oonvinoo them ibat
thero are no Union men South on any con-'
ditions, and that our complcto success will,
not mako Ihem Union men, but only con-'
quered vnHenls ond muzaled rattle-snakes in
uur bossoms, and the " war for tho Union "
would cense atonce, oritsrwf objects would
ho either changed or exposed.

1st Ihen— Arc tberoany Union menSouth!
Fully two-thirds or three-fourths of tbo
masses of tho people havo always been ar-
dently attaohcd to tho Union. They clung
to it while thero was a hope thatcomity and
good faith, and a friendly administration of
tbo government would bo accorded to them.
Even Stophons, the Vice-President of tbo
Southern Confederacy was onoof this class.,
Aa lung as there was n hope that a ooin-
promisu could ho effected last winter, such
was tho devotion of tho people of the South
to tbo Union tbat neitherDavisnor Toombs
dared to oppose it, but both, when on tbe
Committee of Thirteen, avowed themselvea
ready to maintain tbo Union on the basis of
tho Crittenden or any similar compramiae.
Tho " leaderi?," knew they would be power-
less unless tho people were with them ; aud
they knew tbat tbo failuru for tho last thirty
years to induce any respoclablo number of
the people to favor disunion, was conclusive
evidence that tho great mass of ihe people
were opposed to their schemes, and ardent-
ly attached to the Stars and Stripes, nnd the
old Union, ns long ns their rights were ro-
speoted and the safety of Iboir iuslltutions|
guaranteed by an honest and fair adminis-
tration of Iho government. They could not'
bo "dragged out," unless their "hearts
(ere fired," and their love foe the Union

liennted ; and nothing was calculated so

fl'ectually to fire tticir hearli, and destroy
their love fur the Union and their coufideuco
tbe " palladium of their safety and
their liberty." as tbe success of tho party
pledged to bnrros, outlaw, "girdle." ond
" ultimately extinguish " four thousand mil-
lions ol their property, "surround the iiisli-
■ ilion as with a wall of fire, until liko a

;orpion it would Bling itself to death," ot
fence it in with a cordon of free Stales,

ad make it die like a poisoned rat iu its;
hole.'' Even tbe sucoess of this party
pledged to such a policy howover, was not;
Buffiuient to aleuiato tbe Union men Sualbii
and the people of the South through their
Repreaenlativef, through their Border State
friends, ond through Stephen A. Douf^las
and Northern Demoorata, still plead fur
word of friendship aud comity, some
owal of tho " Chicago Platform, " pro-
gramme, whiob was hostile to their equality
ill ihe Territories, and designed to "girdle"
aud " ultimulely extinguish ' their Stale in-
stitutions. Tho people still begged the
party in powi.c not to play into the hands
uf certain of (heir leaders, not lo refuse all
terniii of compromise which would deprive
Ibc disunionists of a pretext, and destroy
their poner for ovil, not to turn their backs
on Iheni and force tbcin lu Hastain n policy
they had no hearts for — not to drive them
from the Union nolens volcns — not to set up
a platform above Ibe Constitution, the Su
prenie Court and the Union.

Tho only rcafionso made to these appeals
was "not an inch will wu recede," " Xo
eompromiso wilb slavery." Those States
nhich sent delegates to tbo " Peace Con-
gress," sent men oppoied lo Peace and op-
posed to mukinff any terms which would
sniisfy the Uuiuu men South, and deprive
tbo " loadora'' of ibeir support. Minnesoiu.
icould not cvDu send auy delegates lo
that Congress. Under these oircumstaDces
several of tbe Cotton Stales fouling that all
sympalby was gone aud nil fair play, quit
thu Union like .-iturs which no longer felt
tho atlToelion would quit their orbits and fly
off. Still Ibo Border States feeling a more
^i^iverfui iiKrjiciiou, clung to the old regime

This is tho reason why our record of

irselves, wo have been moro than osoally

of the eaiue family and nation, of old friends,
I of mutual interests, of kindred
tongue, and family ties, that we felt it lo be
tbo bightet duties of patriotism to heal up
as soon as possible, aud with tho leaat lose
of life and treasure. Wo could seu no other
possible way (o restoro tho bormonious
workings of the governmenlal maohinery,
preserving the Union of these Stales, and
the glory of our people.

Truth, fairness, justice, courage in the

tho great prize of " the Union," bo dear and
near to our hearts, Tho true Union eenti-
mpot lay in Ibis platform of principles of
action; stem, resolute, determined. Tbt
could be no Union icnlimcnl in any other
feeling- There never can ho any in any
other feeling. Falsehood and alander,
breathing blood nud revenge, are tho very
antipodes to Union. Itia tho clement vphioh
carries dieca°e, di'Cay and death to all Un-
ion— to the Unioa past — to the Union pres-
ent— to tho Union lo cotno.

There is an intense feeling prevailing tbo
public mind everywhere in anlioipalion of a
bloody confiiet beyond Nashville — possibly
in thff neifibbnrhood of the small town of Cor-
inth, iu Mississippi. We do not hclieve
either army, however, 16 ns large aa reported,

brave youths of our country.

of the subject. Tbo result haa been a vio
leutqnorrel between Col. Moody ani hi;
Republican brethren of tho two Houses
So far did this question spread, ihal thi
Secretary of War sent Maj, Jones, of the
Army, here to iovestlgato tho merits
Gunukle'b report and resolutions, and
have tho wordeof tho Ohio Stale Journal
that Maj. JoNKS decided that there
nothing wrong about tbo maDngemc
Camp Chase, and that Col, Moody had
done nothiiig iaooneietent with bis orders,
or tbo good government of the Camp !

This decision completely sustains General
Halleck and Governor Tod agoinst the
furioQs charges of the Blaok Kepuhlioaus,
that Ibey wero loo lenient to tho prisoners,
aud by dotiiling the negroes as cooka and
to wash, Ihey had orealcd a relalionship of
master aud slave in Ohio ! Uaj. JOHES ap'
proved of tho whole eirangemenl, pronoun-
ces it all right, and thai tbo ncgroca arc
hold as prisonera of war, and not ne slaves-

This leaves tho Senate commilleo in tho
very unenviable position, nnd confirms
several of the members of tho Housa etatcd
in dobate, (bat (he report and resolutions
were fain, and tho comniitteo of Ibo Si
bnd iajposed upon them by making a report
which was a tiesuo of mlsreprosentatioi

Mr. Cook, (Fusion) of Wood, made a
very Eonsiblo apeeoh, not only against
report and rcEolutiona which bnd been
posed upon tbe Hooec, but in favor of a
manly and kind treatment of tho prisoners.
Ho had been in We&toru Virginia, In tbo
three months' service, and testified to ool
of high and noblo beatiug of tho Confcdt
rates, and especially in tho case of Colonel
NoHTOH and hia Lieutenant, nho were laben
prisoners. Hia whole speech was Ligh-loned,
ly, generous, and occasloually rose to
eloquenco as ho warmed on tho suhjecl.

Tho debate running through tho wholo ol
Monday, and iu tho night until near 11
o'clock, was the liveliest of tbo bohhIou.
Tho meiober from Coshootoii, who holds hia

at by votca of a very doubtful character,
.mo principally to tbo relief of tbe bloody
id barbario eido of tho dispute. JtuC Ml
OUUH'B dry jokes, aad alory of the CJO
baviog tbo dog Boso instead of Rose baring
!Q coBD, opoiled the riild raving of lb
young gentleman from Coshocton.*'

On the whole, wo think tbo debate did
much goqd, as it brought to light a eta
facts irhioh will remain as a rebuke to Iho
extreme wing of the House, that will jaat
them for eome lime, and bo ns aonsoling to
tho defeat of Waop, from which
ill temper they had not subsided when I
lecond slaoghler of Ihuir hopoa followed.

Tho House adjourned over from Friday
until Tuesday (yesterday) and the ml

still in that body, not yet aigned
by the presiding olficer of tho Senate,
cd that iho Clerk of tho Ho
differioff with Speaker Hubrel, dona not
consider himself au(hori:^ed to send (he
oliitions to tbo Senate in view of tho ootiun
of the body of whioli be is au ofljoor —
the House having reconsidered their veto
1 Q deoiaion of tbo Speaker, before the
solutions came back from tho Sonato. If
tho Clerk persists, it will yet require a, de-
cision of the House to get them out of tbo
predicament, A "lani/aniLs, which ia talk-

alike goilly there will be none left " lo

But we must bo careful to nol mix up
dereliction from duty and Inok of vigilance
in walching publio servants, with responsi-
bility of tho crime of those public servants
who hide from their constituents their acts
nnd designs. TLo people, or n large. ma-
jority of them, will not except this version
of tbo ofi'air, and will not bo ready lo pro-
oliiim ihtmsdecs equally guilty with those
who assumed to bo tboir leaders, poli

lhi« ruin and disgrace upon the countr}
and it will take Ihat direction in the publi
mind before it is over. If the people were
guilty of electing AnnAiiAM LiscOLS, or
any other man to office, that does not tnuke
them guilty of oppoiutingnnarmy of high-
waymen to office, to rob aud plunder by
contracts and in nil other ways known to
tho profossion of publio robbers. They on-
ly become guilty when they become apolo-
gists and open advocules of the villiany
imitted. They were derelict iu duty and
lence in not discovering the wrong in
season, but Ihey nre nol oraennble to
ninol censure unless thoy make them-

But Ihis dislike of the AbAUSES waa just

To escape tho charge of hostility to free-

charged their defeats and mishaps to the
prejudice ol slaveholders, and Boston be-
oauio as famous for sectional politics, as
for its aristocrncy and sympathies with Ibo
British Government.

The defeat of the younger Adams by
General Jackson, n Seutbecn man, nnd a

^adually receded from my view.

<'f which are love to God. and lovo to the

riples were further represented by moay
bolding sprigs of cedar in their hands; and
the running etreame of pure wntor, represent
divine truth, and that all theprinoiplosaroon

great and mighty ocean of goodness and

"Tbo things which thou hast scon are

and are being jaitillei], little by little, into

The scene of tho cocllict is terrible.

describe the scene so as to givo a realiEn-

one ought li> blosh not to perceive while

which are scattered about. Iloiliea in all
frightful attitudes vrhich a violent and un-

Iny almost cnverca with straw into which
tbey had scrnmhlod, aud lay until death re-
leased them. In the woods through which
troops bad to pass to charge the rebels
lie (ho largest number of our dead, and be-
yond, on the other aide <jf tbe wall from be-
bioU which they poured their valloys of
balls at our men, large numbers of tbo rebels
lie, pierced iu the forehead or face as they
rose above their biding place to shoot at
the Federals. There is a peculiar ghastli-

ot their drees distluguish them, their
faces would enable any one instantly to tell
I were tho Fedorat.ii aud which not.
One would think Ihey were all Indians, so
dark bad they become from their expoHure,
sleeping without tents as Ihoy did for a long

In the Court house are placed a large
number of the wounded, our own dnd the

Writing from Patie, a. torreispondca

the LoDdoD Court JoufduI Bay

Tho emotioDS of tho week bavo beet
great, (Lod bnvc all omaofttcd from tho bigli-
Uflt oirolns of sooioty. Tbo very Tuilleries
have boon active with scandal. A report,
ftiU of terror, had gone abroad evor bidco
Saturday lost, thnl a certain great ball which
was to baTO bepn givca during Iho neck,
was to be countoriniLndod, and put off in-
definitely. Aa tbo ball in question is of
official importance, given by imperial ra
qnest, and nttonded by tbo nhole imperial
world, and by imperial ardor, of courite tho
reosoa of Iho recall of the tfaoUEand and
more invitations bad been given in erury
passible loaiiDer to which bnman iogonuity
in Paris con turn suoh on eveut. Ail tho
tales, hoivover, convene to one point— jenl-
OQfly on the part of the hostess, effrontery
on that of her ri vol. and tho mocit iioac-
couDtable infatuBlion on that of the host.

It aeaain tbat, for sooie time past, the
noble official id question lias been very
marked in his attentions to a certain fa^t
young Indy in high life, whose great beaaly
and exceedingly lively wit and talent v
for a momcntlbought to have enslaved
the great enslaver himself. Hor beauty.
her wit, her ohnTming coDverialion, wore
frequently spokeu of; ; '
proaching wedding bad at last come to be
bioted at, aUhougb fust young ladi
Paris ecnrcely ever expect to rise and fall
to tho r.ondilion of sober, reapeolablo, and
influential wives. Suddenly, all these sub-
jeots of talk coDiieoted with the fast j'oung
Eady were put an end to. and in Ibeir steaiT,
u. steady rumor of tho great atteLtion and
affectioa histowed on her by one of the
liigbest oftioinla of tho couulry ; and that
the great nfi'eation, if not the great atten-
tion, was rcluniBd, odoiilied of no doubt.
How wrong was now declared to bo tbe
kiDdoeaB«f the oBicinl'a wife-, who hail res- them
oued the fasB lady's reputation from tbe
jaws of slandu, by receiving ber, and adopt-
ing bpr. UB it were, for her oito especial
inoltgt. thereby covering tliu rulber tatter-
ed armor of virtuo in wbioh the young lady
W8S attired mih the broad and bonest cloak
of, ber own unsullied ohuraoter, whose foida,
wide anillargo enough to envelop another
as well as herself, ebu had generously thrown
around tbe shivering victim of criticiam bc-
foro it had turned to calumny.

The notion at the lime, was thought gen-
erous nud ohrislisn, and bad ber-n highly
iBipplauded ; but seatiments alterwitb oveut«
inPftris. Gradually, It appears, the faal
joung lady alid berijclf from the prolectiup
coUa «f tbo kind protector's cloak, and
stood once more hufuri' tho morld with hci
armor of virtue, a little patched up it i)

it not been for au accidental occurrence,
she Slight have remained in ignorance al-
together. But obance does Gomolime^ givo
.more knowledge to trusting natures than
•jver 80 much ol the world'n teacting and
cipcrienco can impart to olLera.

At the lost grand ball given at tboTuil-
lories, a. eligbt shook was eiperieDced by
tbe lady on beholding her husband pick up
libo handkerchief which tbe fast girl had
dropped, when ho oorao to pay "

irdled tbebloodinherveins, wo* tho glance
which ehe caught from ber hust^and's eye,
Bcd the answeriog gaze which the fast young
lady returned over hor fan \

' ' 1 moment, thci dignity and self.
poBSPHsion of tbo wife were restored, and
she eommaoded her own feotures to com-
posure. The husband, having made some
trivial observation concerning tbe beat of
id tho badness of the dancing.
larned from tbe ladies, and was about to
nwaywilh so natural and plaoid an air

the confident wife, aniious to give up
.ispicion a.i worthless and unworthy of
both herself uod ih objeols. rose, and fol-
her husband, drew tbo handkerchief
playfully from his pocket, with a laughing
reproneb "f theft and roguery, nnd bidding
him lake care loss bis absence of mind
should ever carry him to the penitentiary
Poisay- But tho husband, instead of
taking tho joko quietly, and as n mi.tler of
playful jesting, mndo a fierce dart at tbo
hondkorcliief, and wranobed it from the
lady'H band. Ho obtained possession of it
'■■lout tbe smallest diflioully : but in the
ggle, n Bmall folded poper dropped flut-
(eringly on tho ground, too evidently con-
cealed therein to bo miitnkon for accident,
even by tbe most innocent tM.i credulous of
all noffiin kind.

Hero it was tbe majesty and dignity of
virtuo sbono triumphant ovrr the oubtorfugo
and iDoannefis of viae and folly. Tho ludy
rcoovered ber Belf-poascssioo in a moment.
She wag very pale, to bo sure, and her
breathing was somewhat difficult. She
it was who stooped- to pick up tbo billet
rfour— for in tbe oonfuaiou arising from
consoiousness of guilt, tho husband stood
twirling tho handkerchief in his band with-
out uttering a word. She handed him tb(j
note, merel^ remarking that ho bad driiwc
a paper from bis pocket, with the stolen

property belonging to Mile. . and tok

ing the handkerchief gently from bis band,
presented it to tho fust young lady ber^iolf,
with the greatest easeand grace imugin able.
Without a word sho placed heranu through
that of her husband, and crossed the room
with him, while tbo fast young lady, left
alone, and pal« and trembling, on tbo bench,
-sat gating in wonder, scarcely able to real-
ize the scene, nnd above bU tbo eitrnordinary
manner of its terminiitloo.

Of course tbo doors of tbe have been

closed to the offender ever aince tbe occur,
rence ; but on tho occasion of the ball it
uppcir.^ that higher powers than those pos-
sessed by family or friends intervened to
prevent sonndal, and while thi> lady insisted
on tho ball at her house being countermand-
ed, a, request not to be refused came from
tbe Tuilleries, imploring, as a personal fa-
vor, that the offair might be buthed up.
that Ibe ball might bo given, and tho fast
girt invited, so that no trial raighl ho given
to that tamentable event. And so Ibe ball
was given, and went off with all the more
brilliancy, that it was onuounccd to be tho
last of tho . Everyone amused them-
selves— everybody enjoyed Iho splendor of

;ene save tbe poor wife, whose bniin

liszy beneath lbs magniGoent coronet
of rubies she inherits from her mother, and
tbe fast young lady, whoso heart beat quiok-
ly beneath tbe largo diamond eaglo with
outspread wings, which adorned ber cor-
sage, and of which everybody knows but
too well tho history iind origin.

Oranges ari- imported in boies containin;;

500 to 1,000. The quantity of this fruit

iported has been steadily increasing for

me years past. In the three years uuding

with 1842, the average imports wern 334,-

loios; in tbo fivo years ending with
1B50, they bad increased to 380.000 boies.
Since then the quantity has been computed
in busbeta. Tho average annual imports in
Iho fivo yearh ending with 1860, were 977,-
440 bushels, Tho quontity taken for con-
sumption has now reached upwards of
l.OOO.OOObu'bels, and, ussuoiingeuch bushel
to contain 650, tbii4 would givo GSO.OOO.OOO

thence have doubled in tho last five years.
Tbo eipenso of walling and planting an
acre of orango garden is stated to be obout
Bficen pounds for the wall, eight pounds for
sixty-five trues, and two pounds for labor.
It yields half a crop of beans or Indian corn
during sovon years, but no oranges ; from
eight to eleven years half a crop of orange j
is DblaiQcd ; nflenvards a full orop, wbioh is
sold for ten to Gfloen pounds. Each tceo
on arriving at maturity will produce annu-
ally, on nti average, 12.000 to 16.000 oranges;
one grower is said to have picked 26,000
from a eincio tree. Tbe trees bloom in
March and April, and orauges are gathered
for Ibe London market as early us No\

BURi.iKoTON, N. J., March 28, 1862.
A riot of magnitude was espeoted hero
st night, but tbe timely precautions of
Mayor Allen prevented serious disturbance.
Tbo origin of tbe difficulty nnd its results
ill be ascertained by the perusal of tbo
jllowiog foots, gleaned from official sonrces:
On tbo 22d of Pebruury Col. James W.
W oil was invited by tho Common Council
of Burlington to deliver au address on the
'■Compromises of tho Constitution." Col.
Wall, it will bo recoUeoted, was arrested
hero as a rebel bymnathiEor, iucarc>>ratod
in Fort Lafayette, anu subsequently releas-
ed without parole. In bis address, be look
tbo ground that the Constitution wos a com-
promise. Tho hall was crowded, many Re-
publicans who opposed his views being pros-
There was no disturbance.
■ answer tho address of Col. Wall, tho
Samuel Aaron, a clergyman of Mount
Holly, was invited. Tho following is a no-
li published in the Burlington paper:
' Itev. Somuol Aaron is to givo a lecturoi
admittance free, at tbe City Hall, next
Tuesday evening, the 27th instant, at half-
past seven o'olook. Subject ' Our Cousli-
tution.' Ho means to elaborate the idea
that the Conslitution of tho United States
is not a compromise between right and
roDg, but a covonnnt between thii whole
ation nnd all its parts to establish justicu
nd secure and oborish liberty, to protect
patriots and punish traitors."

Tbo invitation was citended by the May-
or of IJutliogton and other prominent cili-
ns of tho place, and it was understood to
' a reply to (be orgument of Col. Wall.
Last night, when thn lecturer commeno-
ed his discourse, tbo boll was crowded, two-
thirds of the congregation being Indies. —
There were no indications of disturbance,
proceeded, and among his first
declamatory remarks was an assault upon
General MoClellan, who, he said, bad been
frightened by wooden guns. A vi
manded, " What hove you to sav
MoClelhiu I" Tho sneaker said ho

tbo interregator, " If MoClellun bod a black

Mr. Aaron proceeded ogoin for some
mUi. Ho spoke of John Brown as

D.wbo went down South
wilb peaceful intentions, whose solo object
woe to free tbo bondman from his shaokles
and tho bloody assassins murdered him —
He went on to say that Col, Wall hud re
coolly delivered a. lecture in this ball, ii
which he had charged tho Aholitiooisis witi
doDouDciug the Constitution as a ■■ leagu<
ith hell and a covenant with death." H
id not believe this, unless the declaration
of Judge Taney was correct — that tbo ni

true, then he (the Kev. Mr. Aaron] did w

the speaker, but noa(: of which touched him.
The confusion which followed was almost
ibable. Ladies became frantic with

I were, however, seriously iojiirid, a

In tho seccdod Stales- It was hailed os an

BlOBd up as a unit for tboir country io tliis

From tho palace and tlio cot, from the bill

of gallont men, ready to leave their homi

for tho Boptomuoy of tho Cooetitution, the

continuance of tho Union in its original ■-

It was aole J upoo by ibe I'ccsidpnt of Ibo
United SUlee. wto is entitled to Ibo Ibanka
of ©very loyal benrted man nnd has won
the esteem of thoEO who opposed his elec-
tion, by biB prompt and manly interference
with nil unaulborizod attempts to devinla
from the policy laid down in tbo clear terms
of tbo Crittenden Resolution.
' And, Mr, Speaker, tbo people of Ohio
atand eolemnly pledged, before God ani
man, to tho Critleudeo Resolution. The;
haTo EAnotioned and endorsed it ibiougl
their State Conventions. Eiamine 111
platforms adopted at the Domooratic aod
■■ Union " State Conventions, held here lost
Aogust wid Soptombef, and you will find
that tho Eccond reBolulion of either plutform
embodies verbatim tbo Crittenden ReBoJu-

On that tesolalion all our Stole officers
woro uleoted; on that resolution every ono
of usvtaa elected a mcmbor of this Legis-
lature ; to tho conservative, humane policy
it inaugurntos, every ono of us, wbotber a
Demoocol or aUepublicon, is solemnly pleg-
ed ; to the oitent of that policy, and no far-
ther, the blooding and union of parties has
bacomo a reality ; it conatitutoa, as it were,
the neutral ground, upon which the whole
body of loyal men in Ohio, con oud do
vigorously unite in support of the war and
the adminiBtration.

Tho resolotions, now under consideration,
are antagonistic to tbo spirit of the Crit-
tenden resolution and should tberofore bo
reconsidered nod rescinded. They find
fault with " the appearance in the streets
of tho Capital of Ohio of robe! officc-ra in
rebel oniforma, released on parole. '" In
other words they find fault with tho relenso
of rebel prisoners on parole, heenuse the
very nature of a release on parole implies
. the permission to the [laroleJ prisoners to

^ frn-wliorfi fhevi '

fit tow

you try a
them. But wbeL

. goTvhere they please, within fixed precincts,
and to appear in such elotbea as they see
"' ' rrear. Now, rebels are traitors; when
Qcet them in battle, shoot them : when
t thout of treason, bong
or tboy aro taken pris-
t tbeiQ as nil civilized nations
treat their prisoners of itar.

Bat the committee report accompanying
the rOBoIotions states more spooitieally the
true ground of complaint relative to the
paroled robel officers ;

" Thoy Lave (roqceotcd jilocea of pubtio aaiate-
meat, I'i^ited tbe Seoato aad Uouie Chambers,

j\b ! if tboj is tho true reason why the
prisoners shonld be confined in prison,
where, I ask, should tliat man be, wbo, a
short lime ago, in a publio addrese, deliver-
ed at the federal Capital, used the following
language :

tbe feelings of the loyal people of Obio had
been outraged 1 iNo, no! Every ono would

S raise those servants as models of loyal

A short time ago, Mr. Speaker, all the
emanoipalioa resolutions and abolition bills
'ntroduced in Congress wero laid on tbo
:able, because tbe Judiciary Committee wus
oonstrained to report, that tbo power of Cou-
gresa over this whole matter, was, to say the
least, very doubilol, while the powers of the
Exccutivei of tbo war authorities, was am-
ply sufficient for all purposes nnd omergen-

If there are cogent ronsoos why Con-
gress Bhoold leave this matter with tbe Ex-
■'ive, thete are still more cogent rea-
why we, a State Legislature, should
abstain from all attempts to interfere. But
if yon will allotv yourselves to bo blindfold-
ed by prejndicts to befogged nnd mis-
guided by uboliliuntsm; if you uro bent
pon finding fmill with tho Executive; if
oil are over anxious to spit on your plat-
;itm; then pass these resolutions, dictated
s they^ are by tbe spirit of rovougo and
ppression .' Yut. beware '. Your record

u on Military Atfairs. Uut no, no ! That

motion bad to bo voted down, because it

proceeded from the minority — because it

was made by a straight Democrat — who has

been denounced as o " aympalbiser with tbo

bels," and wboso expulsion from this

body baa been suggested by tho organs of

tho Union I'orty, on account of his opposi-

tho resolutions on tbo samo subjoct

matter, a abort time hoforn introduced by tbe

gentleman from Lucas county.

Mr. Speaker, in the old country I have
often crossed sword wltU my adversary aud
<ceived wnund-t iuUictcd in open manly
combat! A lucrative practice, tbe pros-

n base, slan-

o sympathy
iome sympo-

from my native laud, from my kindred ni
borne, simply because I was a. Ucmocrat-
simply becauEc I advocated n just and holy
cause, tbe cause of tho people. And when
I came to this couutry, 1 joined tho DemO'
cratio patty, because I did, and do now bo-
licro, tjial it is tbo only true conservalivc
national party of tho Udton ; boonusc I )>n<
lievo that tbo future of this Union depends
mtinuanco of tho Dcmooratio par-
ty ; because I believe, that whatever may
happen, whether wo shall ho compelled,
eventually, to ncknowlodga tbo Southern
federacy, or shall bo able to replant tbo
stars and stripes on evei^ bill-top tUroogb-
ont the United States: Dcmoorati" --' -'
*p]es must and will prevail.

Tboso who know me, are familiar willi tbe
position I have taken with regard to thi
I have always denounced tbu right of
ion, claimed by the South ; I have al-
ways denounced tho armed rebels as trfti-
tboir country. I am in favor of
IB prosecution of the war.' But I
I'or of a comlitutional prosecution
of (tie war ! 1 am pledged to tbe Crittenden
Resolution, and shall stand by it '

While I despise tho hired scribblers, wbo
correspond for iJemootatio and Republican
papers, and who, when writing to a Demo-
oralic papor, ate full of praise of tbo "uo-
" speech" made by n Democrat ou this
r, but in their report to a Republican
paper atigmatizo tbo aamo apoccb as n dis-
loyal secession speech ; who denounce my
colleague and myself as " demagogues," as
" espouaing tbo cause of the rebels ;" wbo
ovou suggest that wo should be expelled
from tbis Legislature ; while I deem it bo-
ueutb my dignity to pay any attention to
tbo.se menial ni re lings of tho press, who
stoop down to nbolesale falsehoods for the
sake of filthy lucre, I deem it equally my
duty to notice tbu insinuations thrown out
by momberit un tbis Hoor, and beg leave to
say, that whatever my foults may be, I am
not suoh a coward as to bo nfraid of tho oon-
aeqncucos of the position my honest con-
viction prompt; me to take; and I hereby
challenge any member on this floor to dare
to charge me with acts or words of disloy-
alty. If any one Hbould venture to do so,
I should cive him tbo lie, quich as lightning,
and forceliim to swallow bis , — ' - '

Mr- Speaker, I hove
with armed rebels, but I bav.
thy with diaarmed prisoners ;
patliy which n manly victor always owes to
Lis subdued foe-

I am no advocate of tho doctrine : " eye
for eye, tooth tor tooth !" But I believe in
tbe truth of tbo doctrine laid down in the
good book: "Do unfo other?, what yuu
want others to do unto you !"

If I had ft brother or friend in Ibe Union
army and ho was taken prisoner, 1 should
doom it to bo in ocoordanco with tbo dictates
of truo humanity to release him on parole.
Hence I am not prepared to censure the hu-
mane General Hallook Ot Governor Tud for
bovine paroled rebel prisoners.

If T were a prisoner aud bud af-iltliful
servant, wbo was wilting and anxious to
share my captivity, 1 should deem it cru-
elty on the part of my captors to separnte
tbat setvant from me. Hence, if any ne-
gro servant* bavo been captured with or
voluntarily followed their mastorap aud have
begged to be permitted to share ibcir prison
cell, to attend and wait upon them, us they
did, while free, I am not prepared Io oon-

e tbe humane officers, who granted their

■"or these i-oasons I am opposed to tbo
resolutions under considaration, and sbal!
oppose all resolutions aud measures dictated
by the same inhumane, intermeddling ^pirit,
I trust tho good sense of this House will

second sober thought, to keconeiiler the

vantage ground in this town. It ia true
that tbe largo Irish votu helps to swell their
'lut in ail candor we urge that
nd niser counsels must prevail, or
tho Kopublican party, not only in this town,
'lUC all over tbe district, will bavo to stand
laido for tbe slow but surely increasing
trend of our Opponents. Tbis is a sad and
iLuniiliatiug cout'e.'jsion, but it is nevorlho-

ilow IO ItGslore (lie Union.

We call tbe attention of our Republican
friends to tbo following from tbo L^uisvillo
a moub quoted Union paper. It
sensible and to the point;
first step to a restoration of the
Union is the dispersion of ibo Republican
party, a disorganiztition of tbe whulo con-
cern. Wo denounoo this wicked eflort in
tbo South to destroy tbe Gorornmcnt. We
grant tho'nocesslty of aunpressing it, but
Abolitionism, thai has produetU it, must also
ippresscd. Tbe patriot wbo loves hia
country must cousont losncriSceit."

(IV Titf; SAME BOUT CojiiNO.— Tho
Wasbiuglon (faycllo County, Ohio,) Pitg-
iiltr, in uoiioing tho arrest and conviction
uf >unie negroes for breaking iuto a smoke
: that place and robbing it i>f iiuver-
of bacon, makes tbo Iblloning re-
marks on that class of the population :

There aro too many of these laiiy, loung-
^ negroes about town who gain tbeir liv-
ing by thieving of nights. Tbero ate nfeir
honorable osoepliona, but tbo majority of
them will not work when thoy can get it,
nd nothing short of about two prices will
;ot them to perform any kind of labor. —
i'hoy loaf about upon the street corners by
day and area prey uponamoko houses, hen-
roosts nnd wood-piles nt night. Those do-
nothing, worthless orealuroa arc loo uunier-
ons hereabouts, and persons should keep n
olo 10 watch about their properly both day
and night."

Tbe abolilionista would Hood tho Korth
with just that kind of popniation.

As I am given to undorstaod Ibot your val
uable paper. 'The Cr'uU, is by no menus ei-
clusively devoted to politics, I have been at
pains to select forlts columns a short eitraot
touobing the pUiloaophy of mind — which I
yenture to say wilMm nccoptible Io n largo
class of your intelligent readers, and to none
more than those of only juvcnilo noquain-
tanco wilb the world in which thoy are to
Uiink 09 well as to art.

As rational and accountable creatures,
thete is nolhiog, 1 presume, which more
behooves oh, iu whnlover sphere of life,
than the habitual formation of sound and
reliable opinions. Wbilo ull will at onco
admit iho un(|ueatioaable verity of this posi-
tion, and in nil its force, thorn is nothing in
'oalily mom pruclicnlly disregarded. Al-
though tbo Bupremncy of reason, ia on all
bands ncknowloJged, yet, in fact, whenever
urgent occasion nrtiavsi passion or prejudice
s ever nt hand, usurpingly to take the sway.
Among tho eminent writers who bavo dis-
ussed ibiH Important subjoct, 1 would
lamo the Into Sir William IlamiUoo, who,
a hie able treaties on " Logic,'' has onder-
akon to classify tbo sourcei of this nbera-
tion — and to advise us to its correction.
In bis enumeration of causes towards tbis
id, ho maintains that PTecxpitaney — Sloth
-Hope and Pear, and Self-love are, in tiiis
igard, tbo principal odversarica which be-
set lifii's tortuous way, nnd with which wo
should bo over prepared to grapple. The
author proceeds in bis olaasificntion with ro-
matks OS follows :

" lat. A reatleis anxiety fax a decision begets
impatience, wbioh decides belare the prelimioory

meot, not aaeoraiog to their real indoonco on tho
truth of tho deoiiiuo, but aeeordin^ to tbeir bear-
ing on our perional intoreatd therein."

Of tbo four influences bore presented,
0 author emphatically dwells on Hope and
Fear, us especially dangerous to tho general
:ause of Truth, and as that by which its
nds uro most liable to bo defeated. His

Mortal wounds, however, without ooy

theory, they should hn moro frequent by

Tho balls rotate swiftly on the alia as

We regret — very deeply regret, that we
cannot throw more light upon tho sad scodos
of that lerribia battle field. Why aU eom-

ead newe euoagb.

We would remark a very peculiar iaot
aboQt these letters. They nil appear to
have beea written on Monday night or
Taoeday morning after the battlp — nothing
later. Thero are Eome, wo notice of later
datesi but we feel juelified in raying that
they were not written in camp, but by the
oorregpondeata who left there at the time
tbeir first letters left, and hnve been written
sinoo. This, wo jodgo, is tbo reason why
they contain no later noH'u, but aomo Kligbt
additional parlicuUr--.

Uuoh hns been written and lologrupbcd
which turns out not lo bo true- We have
only, thcreforo, selected that which hns not
been contradicted, and which, in the main,
wo Ihiok, may be taken ua correct, We
would not say ihattho reports of tho kilted
and wounded are entirely correct as far ai
they go. But one thing is very certain,
they are cot by any moans full. The sua-
pease, therefore, of relatives and frionds in

suQerlng the agonies of olmust despair. It

Dcmocraiic Viclorv iu Dayton>

The great victory of oar Demooritio
frioada in the city of Dayton, Ohio, is of n
cbaraoler to deserve more than n passing
notice. Dayton, last fall, gUTO about 4M
Republican majority. It now elects n Dem-
ocratic Mayor by about J50 majority, and
tho whole Democratic tieket! Tho town-
ships in the county of Montgomery turn up

ry similar results.

This wonderful revolution is important
from tbo fact that Dayton is the home of
VAtLAKDiOKAii. When the war broke
out, Mr. VALi.ANDifiuAM wns made the Kpe-
ial object of abolition hatred, His life and
property were threalcued. and tbo Dayton
Empijc never yielded one inch, in main-
taining its oontso In Mr. V.'s defouao,
but, in fact, bpread ita saila broader to the
breeze, and bid defianoo to assaults from
oil quarlera.

The timid bowed to tho storm, bat tho

en of boue and muscle never blinked an
eye during the raging vlemunta. The Re-
publicans were aided from Iho whole body
of nboUlioa sympathizers overywhere. liad
tho storm continued to rago with violence

ilil the fall elccliona were over. Then a
calmer moment came, and tho people began
fleet seriously on the "n5t, present and
future.

The Obio Trooits at PUlsburgh

We have excluded from our reporls the
despicable slander upon our Ohio Troops
at the nwful battle of Filtaburgb Landing,
sent from Chicago to the Cindnnati papers.
Wo are surprised that any Ohio paper woold
puffer enoh slanders In tbeir columns.

Wo know Bomo of tbo Regiments well,
and their bravo oiIjcct.s included in this U-
beilous charge of cowardice. Tbo author
should bo hunted out and posted ot every
rond crossing in tho Stato a» a base villain.
Regiments out up, and their officors killed,
could nolbe ciipeolcd to stand their ground
against _odd$.

Woventnre tho assertion that the dirty
author of this slander is eome sneaking abo-
lition honnd, that never ventures near
enough to dunger to oacertain the truth of
any thing ho may write.

Whatever may have been our misfortuneB
in that bloody confiiot, which has brought
sorrow and grief lo many a happy house-
hold, thoy cannot bo laid to tho cowardice of
the rank aitd file, and any man who would
invent such stuff, det^crvce to bnvo hie scalp
taken.

Lot those who talk so boastfully, and cry
cowardice, shoalder their muskets and go
through a winter campaign of suffering and
deprivntions, such aa our soldiers have for
months past, and then into such a battio as
that nt Pitlsboreb Landmg, and let us nee
them perform !

We have bad about enough of this homt
patriotism, and tho public feeling will not
stand much more of it. Lot tho Black Ro-
pubhcan slanderers of our soldiers join tho
armyatonoe. It will do them good. They
know tctrylhitg — they are posted on ali
military duty, ond as for *Tct'(rj— why that
everybody knows.

At a more uppropriato time, a little sift-
ing of the original causes of some of our
troubles in camp may not be amiss. At
present it is not opportune to say more on
the subject. If there is any fault anywhere,
it is uot among tho rank and file. I: may
ho traced to official headquarters, and oo-
counled for on tho principle of cheap politi-
cal favoritiam, muro thon anything else.

Tlic

Tho bill to repeal this Court passed the
.Senulo aud ia now before tho Eoujie. We
hope our Representatives will step forward
ond put thio bill through. They nro law-
yers and may feel a personal intereat in tbe
Court, but the time has come when repre-
sentatives must go beyond their own pook-
otfl. They are Irne in other respect*, lot
them not falter in this.

This Court W03 got up by a tew laivytrt)
for purposes woil known to the people of
this county. Indignant ut nhnt thoy con-
sidered a wrong, the people defeated tho
persona! object by electing Judge Mat-
thews. It waa, as is well known, a rebuke
to tbo getters up of tbe taw. That Jadge
Mattubws hos made a good Judge, hns
nothing to do with the matter. It wns bis
business to bo a good Judge. That part
of the matter was right enough.

But tbo Court itself ia oncoustltutiooui.
It is not within the range of our jndioial
system as created by the Constitution, It
ia not an " inferior " Court, an seems by tbe
auigmelical language of the Conatitation
lobe tbo purpose, but u Sul'Eitlon Court; a
Court ho nuperior that there is no appeal
from it. With a bad Judge, it might be-
come a monstrous star chamber coucern.
It ia a very coHveuiunt Court for bankers,
money loaners and merchants to take enap
judgment upon their creditors, aud for
lawyers to transfer collection fees lo their
pockets without delay. When this is said,
about all is said for the Court that eon bo
said. All tho rest is against it.

Thero is no oonstilulional authority for

ly Buoh "Superior" Court, We have
seen no ono try lo provo it oonatilulionat.

While other States are passing "stay

[VB " to protect tbe debtor, and a hundred
thousand people hnvo petilioaod Congross
to pat^a a bankrupt taw to relieve them from
debts, it is felly for Ohio to keep
L courts, nt a very heavy eipense, for
tho purpoae of quickening the grasp of tbe
creditor upon his suffering debtor. We can
)utono reason, and that of tho Shy-
lock, fur tho continuanen of this Court.
Thero is row but one of those aaperuume.

cinnati, escept this one.

lontiuuo this Court. We doubled it very

much, but

SpAiutow, oae of our County Comi
did carry around this city a petition of the
bind '. But who f ignod it I It wns a dasi
wo have spoken of abovo, no doubt, or tho
real purpose of tho petition was not ci-
plaiuod. It is a purely idph affair— noth-
ing more ; and the people are supposed to be
capable of being blinded, while (heir pock-
els ore picked of a few thousand dollars.
Did Mr, Sparbow entry around a petition
to prelude tbe free negroes from tbo South-
making a paupot house of Ohio I Not a
bit of it — ho wns too patriotio for that; bat
when on eitrnneous Court, an unconstitu-
tional star chamber, is lo bo prolonged for
the purpose of making a few dollars and
ceuLi for a small oliquo of intotcated indi-
viduals, his patriotism slicks out "alt rounH."

When tho people ask why, and how, it is
that tbeir State and county laies ore ao
high, you can answer thorn, that it ia by just
such acts as this multiplieda hundred times
over, until one-half tho community are liv-
ing off the other half. That is the reason
why and how it is done. These fellows " let
go hard," bat they have got to let go aeoncr
or later, and they might as well begi
as last, to cage their grasp.

We appeal to our members lo pu)
bill through, and try it one year, and see if
the court is not ptonounced, by general
opinioDi to have been a great humbug.

The Spring Eleclionsl

On no former occflfion have we seen si
many City,Town andTownship olUcera elect-
ed by tbo Democrats, aa on the present occa-
sion. Prom every part of the State, the
successes of the Demoerata daw in upon
Tho TLiral districts ospeoially have been
wide awake, and the few rnvorses, or rathei
fuilares where CKpeotatious were high, have
grown almost eiolusivoly out of a littli
anxiety on tho port of certain men, to got
on the tickets, and tbiis eeoure elections. —
This wo hope will alt bo corrected by noit
fall. NomiuationE should never be made by
the individuals themseive*, but by the peo-
ple who du not want tho nominations, but
simply accept of Ihem because theli friends
desirn that Ihoy should, '
anxious is after you get the
before. It is a good cause
see candidates, busy after Iho people, but-
ton-holing them round to got nominated, —
It is that which has brought hcort-hurniDgs,
diviEioni and defeats Into our ranks, aud wo
can never expect unity, harmony and suc-
ccaa while it is countenanced. We have
great principles at stake, a whole country
to save, a noblo constitution to preserve,—
These are the objects cf our organization
— a much higher purpose than tbe mere
aoramble of who shall get on the tickot, en-
joy for a few months the patronage of office,
and dispenao a fow favors to special favori-
tes. We hope, therefore, that tbe Legisla-
ture will so reduce the fees and salaries of
office holders, that the people may repi
quiet from the anuoyanco of eleoli
to get tbo nominations. Instead of getting
into offioo for greed aud patronage, let tbo
acceptance of nominations be rather an act
of patriotism, than a busiues.s of money
making. We sholi then get a fair eipros-
of publio opinion — tho pick and choice
of oandidatca — honest and faithful adminis-
great reduction of publio
burdens. This correction of tho political
morals of tho country must come from tho
people themselves. It can eome from no
quarter. The people have made a
grand cummoncomeot Ibis spring, let them
presH forward in tbegood work. Whenever
ooudidutoB find that thoy aro injuring their
ices by a little over anijoue electioneer-
thoy will soon quit it, and harmony and
ess will follow tho nominations. Gen.
Jaokson's rule wns to neither ask nor re-
It i' Ihe true standard and
works well as a general role.

IB last fall of the "Union"
union of politioianA for tbe
offices — has been tho cause of a great deal
of Ihal sort of work being attempted this
spring, but it has gloriously exploded, and
oatanoes proved a total failure- so
much ao that few Democrats, worthy of the
iUtog lo try it hereafter;
while Domocratio tickets suooeeded beat
where Ihey wore made up of the pure, una-
dulterated breed, aud ihuB square isaues be-
ing made. In this oily we bad not a man

■cepted of tho places simply beoouso Ihey

brief synopsis of the results in other ports
of this State, and also in other States :

Dear Col,: Tho spring elections in

the Democraoy. In this township whore
last fall tbo Democrats had only 2G majori-
ty, but where Di^nmook had 124 for Justice
of tbe Peace in January, they dnro not
make a contest, though they say tho Tote
for D. was not a teat of party strength,—
in the Borough they supposed Ihoy had
'e thing, and oiado a vigorous contest,
were beaten from 00 to 50 majority I
is where Andrew J. Witkbaa, our fu-
Itepreeentative, Htos: and ho is repu-
diated hero and all over the county.
In New Castlo township, where Mr, Gam-
:,E resides, and whero we wore beaten last
fall bj 5 majority, wu this spring, on a full
vote, elect our wholo township tioket by an
average majority of 55 I This, loo, irhile
ten Democrats and only fivo Hepahlicans

Wo gin> 1j.'Iuw a lull ibHtraot of the vote
polled in this City iiiid Townsfaip on Monday.
7th imtt. TliP geiierul liokota were
elected by largo mnjorilies. which fix the
politics of this city beyond cavil.

Tijo grrcat victoiy really waa in the defeot
of Wm. Arsistuonu for City Treasurer, un
oflice lie boi filled about as long as the "old-
est inhabitant " can fomomber.

Tho vote ou eiteudingtheoity boundnrio.i
IS almost unanimous. This is of the grent-
I importBDOO to tho city, and n-e have for
yearf urged tbia beiD):; ilouo. But the Uo-
puhlieans were fearful it would bring too
mriuy Democrats into the corparntiou to
jr the act safe for tbcm. They need
not trouble tbemi^elves iibout that now, for
tho oity is Demoocatio without tho largo ud-
ditions. and no mnuuerof districting by the
presotit Couuoil, cau provont tbo wards heic-
utter scading n majority of Democrats lo

10 year ago wo oloolcd a Ijeiuoorntio

Mayor TiiomaS decides all ease..* with that
promplucsa. impartiality and urbanity which
m oven thoso who nro tho objects of

Qiuch of Marshal TiiOMrsox, who was
clootcd 0, year ago. It bos been tho judi-
cious actioa of the:iD Iwo officers, through
at of most extraordinary oxDiteiuent,
and acity full of soldiers and etroDgcrs. which
added so much strength to the Demo-
cratic voto by giving general, if not uni-
■orsnl. Eatisraotlon to tho people. They
have Bltended faithfully to tbeir duties and
done nothing else to gain popularity
aud votes. Mayor Thomas being elected

Wo are only led to these romHrkB now, to
sfer to a declaration made on the floor of
tho House by Mr, CoKVEIlSE. one of the
mombers from this county, during tbc dis-
cussion on tho ritccuisideration of the GuNC-
KLE roaolulions. Mr. CosvERaBsaid -.

" Cor. Chain oriUral ball ciinridf;et. to bs •ruiie

Those were the negro" trials of ISSD, in

the Supremo Court of Ohio, in seasion in

is city, if our recollection is not at fault,

we wero uot in the State nt the timo.

Be (hat as It may, tho purpose of Guv.

CiiAac, who thcu filled the eieculivo cbnir

of Ohio, was to obstruct the operations of

against the colored nnd white obolitionists

on trial.

0 had heard of this before, but until
never heard it publicly proclaimed.

laration of Mr. COSVERKE can bo suhstnnti-
ntod by proof— by the very men engaged lo
work upon the "ball nnd cartridge ■' (cbcl-
mof Gov. CiiAsp!

This only goes to prove a thousand other

ta .if tbo liopublicaii organization. It

mimencod in robelliou— it was sustained

rebellion — it took possession of tho

Gouerol Governmant in ft stute of rebellion

—and It will die in rebellion, and it it tho

There was not n disolaioicr nor reply in

publican paper. Not even nn iillusion to it

To escape from noticing it, maybe attri-
buted the vituperation of tho Jourria/, but
which was nothing else than a string of
>rda, always at hand with one whose ed-
ucation consists mostly in studyiog tho lan-
guage.

From the way the Repuhli

Too. we are inclined to the opinion that wi
have seen tho lost of -fusion" in Ohio.

Wo do not think anybody la Ohio wil
shod tears over it, and wo are

a papers of

Iso iuoUned
ill care just

to the opinion that Gov. '

as liltlu about Iho dissolution of .

ship as any Bopublican can.

Wo are free to say thot, so far as wo can
seo or learn. Gov. Tod is tilling his office
as impartially, attentively and judiciously
ns any one could, taking all things Into con-
sideration.

There is so great a contrast between tbo
present and late Exceutivo of Ohio, in their
mnnaers, feelings and breadth of hrnin, that
Ko havo yet to meet the first person, of nny
political antecedents, that doos nut speak fa-
vorably of the ohange,

If this causes a dissolution of the fusion
partnership, wo only havo lo aay, that the
Republicans would bo pleased with no Gov-
ernor who was not ready and willing to act
upon tbeir narrow, prejudiced, dishonest
notions of office. Tho Democrats ask no
special favors of Gov. Ton, and thoy expect
nono granted; yot what ottioial business
they necessarily have with him. is always
done in that open, prompt and manly man-
ner, that iinpressos tho visitor favorably.
and leave kindly thoughts to follow.

This is souiothiug gained, at loast, and if
the Republicans wore honorable 1

3Qoti 03 I novor behold bpforo. It ep-

ETOOobcd rear usi but scomod not to see. or
Eicd DB, it stood gating atfnafaMly toward
tho South. And tho Angel J^aid ooto me.
■■look towarJ the South," I turned nround
nail beheld nnothor beast ajiproacbiog from
tho Sonth. which came near to tho beast
wbioh camo from Iho North, nnd thoy atood
giisiDgonc upon tho other; they wot o so
mooh lite eacli other, that oao could not bo
distiognished from thu other, eicept the
oorthcrn bcoat was tho largest. Tbe gen-
oro! oppoarnnco of the beasts were that of
tho Unicorn, hut mach jftrger Ihao tho Ele-
phant. EacbliaJ a suittll horn coming out
\\i tho head between the oyos, which iip-
peared to be short but very strong. Their
earawere sinall. nod stood erect, and re-
aamblcd the ears of the fon, but corres-
ponding with the enoruous siia of tho
bsosta- 1 looked upon them with both fear
and wonder. And tho Angel said unto me,
■•fear not, I will protect thee." The beasts
began to move slowly nnd cautiously toward
eath other, and when they had come near
ofloh other, Ihoy turned their beads lowords
the East and walked side by side, a few foet
apart, and after thus going some dialaneo
Ihoy turned their beads towards eaob other,
then one came against the other with great
faryi and foucht with the most determined
Hpirit. And after the confllat was ended.
ibe boBBt from tho North seemed to give
way and left, and tho beast from the Si ''
teemed much wearied, aud did not adv(
further towards tho North. Tlicbensta then
went towards tbe West, and again (
together, and fought innny times; al
time one would push the other back
seem to prevail, and again nt other times
the other would seem to prevail, and this
continued for a length of time, but neither
jirevQiied over the other. The beasts thi
moved toward tho South, between the East
nod West, near the center, and fought
ruanytimes, Theheastof tlio North seemed
to ahcckthe udvaucc of the beast froc
b'oath, but neither Eecmed lo prevail
Iho other. Tho beasts then moved fe
ward^ the South and fought again,
again, with the most determined spirii
desperation, which I over beheld, until out
»f their nostrils came smoke uud fire, ai
from a furnace. Thoy Beemcd lo movo with
great swiftness, from the South to the East,
then to the center, and ogiun to tho West,
and thoQce hack again to tho center. East
nnd South, until they had changed their po'
hitions many times, oorryiog devastatiot
iind destruction wherever they went, until
ihe whole land appeared as barren as tho
plain upon which wo stood. The desperate
conflict between them bated for c long timo.
Durinc the conflict tho beast of the South
teemed to move with greater swiftness, but
did not seem to be so powerful as iho beast
of the North.

After maay, yes, very many conflicts, Ihe
lieast of the North seemed to prevoil, yet
both were woory, and laid themselves pros-
trate upon tbe earth, and deemed unable to
renew till, contest again. And while thus
iyiag prostrate, two eagles camo and sit, one
upon one of the beasts, and the other upon
the other. Aud nhilo tbo beasts were thus
lying helpless ond prostrate upon the earth,
I loolcd and beheld another beast rise out
"f the earth, which had the appearaace of
a lion. And it drew near the prostrate
tieasts, nnd took the eagles from the bodies
i'f the beasts and devoured thoni; and the
beast which had the appearance of tho IJon,
['Ot one of his forefeet upon one of the beast"!,
and the other forefoot upon thu other, and
Ihe two beasts yielded obcdieacn to the lion.
And I looked again, and ebw two other
■eagles flying over our headi, and after lak-
mg a circaitoos flight around us, they do-
'tended and alighted, one upon each of tho
two beasts. The beasts immediately arose
tnd cast Ihe Hon off to a distoncc— the
beasts looked upon each other for a short
time; thoy then camo near each other, and
teemed to caress each other, aud npp.-oied
to heoome rantual friends. Tho beasts then
mode iiii atlaok upon the lion, and, after a
severe conflict, tho beasts put the lion to
Hight, and tho beasts prevailed. And dar-
ing IhocoDfliol, the two other oaglts flew
«boV8 03, and remained near until the battle
BBS ended ; thoy then returned and perched
-.hemselves again upon the beaaU, and tho
lion fled away. And I looked again, and
saw t«o other beastn, similar to tho two
lirst beaita, but smaller, and one fought
agamsl the other, in the same manner as the

restoration of the two beasts and their re ?
onion, and their prevailing over tho lion!
signifles tho destruclion of the monarchical
gOTemroent, and the coming of the other
two englts, significa the ro-cBtabUahing of a
fiopublican Ijovemmeut; the two small
beasts fighting against ono another, signifies
that the deaeeudants of Africa, one portiori
of them will fight against the North, and
tho other against tho South ; for tho aomo
spirit of division will take holdof them which
will prevail between tho Noclh nnd South;
by the small beasts, neither one prevailing
over tbe other, signifies thatlbeywillbo ruled

raliog, according to their own will, significa
that they will have their perfect liberty aud
consequently their entire omanoipatlou; and
by ono going North, and tho other South,
signifies that Ihcy will he acotterod over tho
whole land. The barren plain upon which
wa stood, where the two largo beasts fought,
signifies tho total destruction of the insti-
tntions of Ihe country. And hytbo beasts
fighting in Iho East, then in tho Westv
in the centre, and then in the South,
signiflcs that the beginning of. the war will

ilaughter. and with fire and sword will (hi
fair land ho laid waste. The bondsman
shall go free as the untamed lion, to kill
and destroy, until the armies shall cease to
strive oao against tbe other, and turn their
strength against tbo* bondsman, and cause
him to stay his hand of slaughter ; and then
shall tbe hondsmon flee lo Iho North to re-
new his slaughter, and armies shall follow
in bis train to ohook his wild rage, for ho
shall be as untamable as the wild hoar of
the forest. And then shall come all tho
miseries of his froedcni ; and then shall tho
hearts of the people ttembjo with fear i all
civil goverBmeot will be disregarded, and
military law will i^le tho land. It shall bo-
gin little by littfc, until might, nnd not
right, shall rule the land; and war universal
shall reign from East to West, and from
North to South; and the nation shall cry
aloud to stay the sword, and givo them
peace. And then shall oue arise l" "t,.im

tho nation will wilUngly bend their ^

necks for tte aakc of peace and quiet, and
proclaim him monarch of Ihe h '
shall rule for a Httlo season.

And after all these things sholl be folly
nccompliahcd, and n truo Church establish-
ed, tbe members thereof governed by the
true principles of the Holy Scriptures,
which is love to God, and love to the neigh-
bor, and self love, and love of tlio world
brought into due bounds nnd subjection-
then shall tho North and South arise
ted, dethrone their monarch, and fori
true Republican Government, which shall
lost for many, yes, very many, days. The
Church mnsi first become united aud form
a union, before tho Government will ever be
united ; a re-union of tho Church first, aud
then a re-union of the Government. Self
love, and love of tho world, has been the
destruclion of tho Government. It was
that principle which begat pride, and pride,

Tho abovo ia given by iin lodinun puper
03 part of a speech madft by tho bravo Col,

uombor of bard fought battles. It ia tbe

oaming as it does from n prominent ofiioor
In tbe a(0]y> ba9 a great signiltoaiico. an^
is evidence of a tronderful change in the
public mind. But wo think tho torniB of
pOOCD would be tho groat stumbling block,
at this stage of the war. Tho great West
hss D mighty stoke in tho future, and she
must look to her own great iQlereats in acy
UTongemeats of tho kind proposed.

The West waa precipitated into this con-
flict by Now England politicians, nod liait-
tm monied men, nbo never look further
than their own pooUota. Wbilo speculation
hbs beoD rifo in tbo East, tbo West has suf-
fered imuionsely. Her trade nnd genrTal
commerce has been rained, and ber sens
made, so far. to face the brunt of battle.
Sho has on onormouB stake in Ibo future
eettlemontof our oatioaal troubles, in irbicli
sbo will bo beard with a ununiniity tbut will
leave no mistake as to her power or will.

EngliHlimen still insist that tboy feci aU'
tborii:ed[o tostato on authority from Wash-
ington, that by Junt a proposition will bo
m&de for a reooguilion of the Sonthero
CoDfederacyi and a division of these Slates
into two Empitea. Wo do not pretend lo
say upon what authority those slatementB
nro made, and persisted in. We aro utterly
Ignorant of aoythiop of tho kind — eieept
wo are not ijnorant of tho fact, that such a
rMult ia the long desired object of tho
linglish Govorumenl, and that hho baa for
years been using tho Northern abolitionists
lo ocoompliah eucb an end of our national
i;rDatnesa.

Whatever New Eugland and the City of
Now York may have in purpew, wo can
eptok forth© tfest. that sho baa never been
consulted in tho matter, and that sho ia no
party to any such Yankee triok. That she
will have her own say in tbo arraagemonls
of the future, and aco to it that sho is not
made tbe tail of Iho kite, to give balnnee
sod direction to a bead over which sho has
00 control, and to which sho is attached
only by a string.

Had Ibo western people beeu properly
conaoltod at first, sbo would have adopted
by a two-thirds vote, or very nearly so. in-
cluding Kentucky end Missouri, (and we
might with propriety inoludo Tounesaeo
and Arkansas.) iho Crittenden, or nny other
decent, honornblo compromise. Tba voice
of hor peopK was. however, disobeyed,
treated with contompt— turned upon with
superoilioua sneers, and after one year of
Xcw England nnd New York Wall street

rowfal, melancbolly history unfolded to our

view. Wo atand aghuat at the record— wo

tVom the first wo called for these deola-
uliousof tho authorities, but wo hnvo called
^'^i". To this hour cur ears have been
Wled only with tho dia and cry «f the ■■lost

dollar and tho Inst man," a cry that will
atatid ns a lasting disgraco and burning
famy to its uutbora in all time to come,
was a cry fitting of highwaymen nnd band-
ditti. not of eobcr, high minded honorobli
^tatc^joicu.

The people of tbo Woat ore not diannion-
ists, nor separationjsls, but lovers of tho
Union, tbo whole Union, nnd nothing le;
than the Union, but they desired these great
blessings without civil wor, witho4l bloody
battle fields, without a gront National debt,
hanging like an Imperial night-inuo forover
over our people. This was why tho West
wanted compromise, it waa why tbo thieving
Epcculators East did not want it- They
had plenty of tooU in power in tl,io West
ready to do thoir bidding and share tbo
plunder. Aud this, and this only, is tho
rcag«n why ii compromise was not offered.
If rejected, wbon offered, then tbe North
would bavo been placed right upon tho
record, nnd wo ebunld not have been fight-
ing iu tbo dark, with tho wbola nation in
doubt na lo every day of our future.

Wo should then have done our own work
itbout tbu intcrineddling of Europe, or
the suooumbing ol Soorotary Sbward to ev-
ery insult and interference from the Court
of St. Jamos. That U^oro is n national
sUuddor aeiaing upon tho people nt tho blood
uod curnagi) wbiob loom up all around us, ia
uvidtut to tho most auporficial observer. —
That relatives and friends oio ready to send
up a cry of '• save my father, my husband,
my son, my brother, my neighbor," that will
shako tbo voryonrth, ia not at all improb-
able, and Col, Mahsok informs us. and a
most Importuut information, that our sol-
diers are getting very tired of this war and
restless as to its designs and ultimato beno-
fits.

This latter information ia not of small
moment. Tbo tecBntaollon of Congress on
tho slavery question, so diamotrioally op-
posite to that for which our gallant soldiers
were called into tbo field, is enough to
ularm every one. and as Col. Manson tru-
ly gays, has greatly strengtbeuod tho arm
of tho robelliou, and as greatly weakened our
own. Had Jeff. Davis token Waabinglon
City, driven out Congress and tbo National
Authorities from there, a deeper and darker
gloom could not have spread ita pnll over
pooplo than now prevails in consequence
ofthoaotioQ of these authorities on theslnve-
ry question. Tbe people powerless to act,
unwilling to place themselves in a hostile al-
titude to their own GovernmEnt, ready aud
willing lo sustain in all which ia right, just,
noble, tboy are on Ihe ove of dispnir, and
hopeless as to tbe future.

Tboy ask. not without cause, what is tho
uso of fighting, spending millions upon mill-
ions daily, bringing sorrow to o very door-
way, and debts of iucaloulable umounia up-
on ourselves and posterity, if tbey only get
ua further into difficulties, and further off
from a aettkmeDt of our troubles! If all

such a meaeago, after tho bill was signed,

After nil that wo bavo heard of President

ua Ibal ho has "over desired " such a law

merest sprinkling of common senso and

taught all men napiring lo statesmanship,
that a spot of a few square miles in the
very centre of slnvebolding Slates, could
uot be made free lo any advantage of tho
negro or tbe white man. It mustofneooBaity
become a msre depot for tho collection of
free ncgroea and runaway elavea, and provi-
ded there was no other objection to Jt, this
would bo enough.

The result is that the Capital of our coun-
try has already become tbo jubilant play-
ground of all tbo negroes round about.

Tbey will never get through celebrating the
occasion, so long aa Lhey can find tho pro-
ducts of white labor to eat and to wear.
Abolilionisls and free negroes will soon
make the City of tho Great Washington a
pandemonium, such as will storllo all sensi-
ble people from their propriety. The Cbi-
cogo platform is working wonders, and the
negro ie clearly in the ascendant. This is
no time for white folks.

tcej who will not object to the occupancy ot the
Hall by properly conducted danciog partica, wa*
elected by dOmalority. Just as miflhtbeonwc-

lion ; and I boiHs lu do the able Senator Iroui Lo-
pin but a simple act of jaslico, when I ny, toatl
boliovo if on examination bo should find tho pro-
visions of the TnimbuU bill to be as I undorslaod
them and as I have stated Ihem, he would bo un-
williog to indorse them, and would obandon his
own tcsoluHons wliich propose lo give auch in-
dorMment.

Let ni for n monienl consider Ihe other ohjuc-
tioa to this bill, viz : That it is unwise nnd unjust
Is it just that by the poiitivo legislation ol Con-
gress, moa, thousands of men, wan werudrsiroua
to bo loyal, who were opposed lo leceision. voted
agaioet it whenever, nnd wherever tocy had the
opportunity of doing Bo.bul who by force and the
nrlful circumvention of wicked and ambitiuus'
leaders, bavo been comnelled, ■jca literally com-
pelled, againit their judguieola and wishes, lo
unite in the movement, should suffer, nnd tho
very mcojloo, who iflhe Government had nfford-
ed them protection, aad maintained the suprema-
•^y of tbo law in their midit, would have ouutinued'

combinations of thor rebel leaders I

Thoio men have been compelled, maoy of them,
to aid Ibis rebellion, either by beiugJircuJ into
its armies or byforcrd contributions lo Ibo Bupport
of the rebel govetameol.

Would it be just, under IbcEO e ire umsla noes, to
cmancipatu tho slaves of tola large class of men,
and forfeit their property I

Uut, let mo ask. who are tu he considered guil-
ty under thia bill of giving aid and comfort to the
rebellion ?

Tho bill does notspecilv nhatacUshnll be con-
sidered as giving aid oud comfort. Will it em-
brace all thoEo who are paying taxes for toe sup-
port of their respective State governmonta in the
htatea which claim lo have seceded I

Aro tooso who hold office under Ibeio Euceial
Slats governments included as aiders and abet-
tors t We all hnow that, as States before this
rebolUoa, they had their respeotive Slate consti

people to elect men lodi^cb^rce lite <1iitI';Bof toeir
respective offices under the several Giato govern-
ments. This, I Eay,ia a neeesslty required hy tho
very condition of society ; and 1 ask, are all these
men, as well those holdinguQlco under such Statu
govcmmenta as Ihoso who voted lu elect them, al-
though many may not otherwise be cngagod in
this rebellion, to he considered as aiders and abet-
tor;, under tols bill 1 Such a doctrine would lead
to mnnstroaa conseqaencea.

I>jt mu fnrtoor ilJustrntc Ihe proriijoni of this
bill, I think by a fair coastmctiou thoy wilt ci-
toad far, very Inr. beyond what toe author of tbe
bill iatendcd. The bill iacludes nil pcrnDns who in
any manner give aid and comfort lo Ibe rebellioa.
Wo have men iu tbe^o freu and loyal Slates, hun-
dreds of thcui, who, under a fair consbruction of
this bill, would forfeit all toeir properly by its pro-
visiona, I refer lo all that class of men who dty
ride toe Constitution of the United Stales, and
denounce it aa "a covenant witodeuto and an
agreement wito bell."

Sir, UiiK class of men aro daily giving " aid und
comfort" to tho robclliou. Wo have unotoer
leu. like Ihoso who met at the Cooper
who advocate toodoctrine toat toe Con-

(f the United States, during too war,

ought to be abandoned, folded up, and laid aside
nnlil peace ia restored. These men, and they are
to be eounted by toousandi, are giving "aid and
imfoft" to toia rebellion; and I tell you, tir, the
en who are urging upon thePreaiJentand apon
,0 country, thedocttinoof general eman a palion,
e giiing " old and comfort" to the enemy, aad
„.e, in fact, enemies of the union of Iheso Stales,
and Ihe Conititnlioo nf our country.

This may bo strung language, but I believe that
an ahuUlioniBt is n disuniooist, nnd is, theiefore,
" aiding and giving comfort" to toe rebellion, aad
that toe Trumbull bill, properly construed, would'
operate n farfeiluro nf bis property, as much mi
as of the property of toose who aro " aiding aad
giving comfort" to the rebelliijn in the seceded

Certuinly, under Iho cuoatructiun of tois c!o-
aueat, gBlloul and loyal Union man, tbo abolition-
Ilia would be in gre;it danger. Hit doctrine i),
Ibat " an abolilionlit in an much a eece^dioniit as
i\ay lo bu found in South Carolina."

The Trumbull bill would, under thu viy w, hato
a very •i/ar"('iand nlmrfdi operation not intend-
L'd by it* auibiir.

But I call toe allention of Sennlors to what he
declares to be the f.oiiey on which Ibii war cjgbl
to bii pioieeulcd. viz : " To save Ibo Govurnuient

viow of such aropugnnnco in the .t'rco
Statea for that species of population of
which it ia thought that this Discriot cannot
have too many, wo submit that tbo mover
of the amendment providing for the bill
paased on Thursday laat in tho Senate oould
not havo been surprised hy the ununlmity
with which it was rejected. Such n propo-
sition can never be carried until'it has been
preceded by an agitation which shall result
ia tbe parage of a resolution niodcUod on
that recently recommendcdby the President
and adopted by Congress. It should run
something like aii follows :

■' Riiahed. Tbat tbe United States, ia ord«r to
co-operate with any Stale ivbicli may adopt grad-
ual colun'ualiua ol emanaipated alavej, give to
sacb State pcconiar)- aid, to ho used by such State,
in its disorelioD, to oompensato it fur thu incoo-
venleucL-, publi<j and private, produced by auch
change of system."

If this policy woro eatabliahed It might
reoonoile tho free States to iho in£ux of
refogce slaves likely to bo liboratcd by uot
uf Congress, or by tho " eiigonoiea " of tbi
pending wnr.

Wo Hinoeroly hope tbnt the people of tbo
free Slates will mend their "priuciplea " and
conquer their " prejudices " on that ecore.

which prevuiU in many of tboso Stated
where there is no "hrnlalizing influenoo of
alnvery " to eipluin tho "barbarism," whioh
bns concreted itself into tho form of law.
Oa this subject wo may cito tho lostimony
of Senator Browning, of Illinois, who, in
his spceob favoring tho abolition of slavery
in this District, painted the situation of free
negroes in tho freo Statea ua follows. (We

There were aUo complaints loud and long
that for five, sii and seven months together,
tlitty had never seen a Paymaster, never
been paid a cent of their wages, nor any of
their wants properly looked after. Wo
speak of theao things to show (hat when tho
charge of cawOTiticc is so freely made
ngaiuat tbo Ohio soldiers, it might bo well
enough lo look a little further into matters
of an earlier beginning, that all may share
whatever blame may finally bo attached lo
tbo regiments from Obiu.

Tbo Illinois troops have won too many
hard battles, proved tbamsflve<, over and
over again, vnteran soldiers, to need boost-
ing up, by imputations upon any others. —
Their fame is beyond tbo reach of this kind
tt{ superfluous labor. We again repeat,
that it is better to wait, and not jump nt too
sudden conoluaions, either in oondemnnlion
of our higher officer*, or of the rank and
file of our aoldiers. Those who never saw
a battlo-field or carried a musket in a con-
flict, each 08 came off „n tbe luaks of tho
TenoeaBCO rivur on tbo Cth and 7th instant,
know vtry littlo obout the inolter. and are
sensible, wc presume, how easily a small
mistake or misdirected order may throw
whole batlalioQS into aonfusion nt o critical
moment, and turn Itiit tide of victory.

Senator Kemnev is pointed out as the only

Senator who voted NO, on the passage of

the bill. Now it is not bo much a question

whether ho stood alone, for that he is

to do if he thinks it is right, and no one

happens to veto and think as ho does, as

judgment governs his action, not

the judgment of others, but whether his

vote was right. Thia is tbe only questiOD.

Fe must not forget that this Cineia-

Sanitary Committee is a soIf-cTinetituted

body ; it has no oonneotion with tho State in

official or legal capacity. It can disaolvp

itself at any moment, divide the funds, and

disappear forever.

Again, if the State Legislotore begins
this kind of appropriations, when and where
is it to slop' Why not give io all other
similar, self-constituted associations ? We
should like to see some one answer this,
Mr. Kennev waa therefore right in his vote,
and it is 1 greot satisfaction there is one
man, at least, in the Legislature, who bus
tho courage lo oct, and tho ability to a so
and judge. We are aware that it lakes a
good deal of nerve for one man to stand
[ as tho target to be aholot, andhoundeJ
all occasions as disloyal, mean and nig-
gardly, because they do right and guard
the public interests; but when we find a man
of aulEcient ability and nerve to do so, the
people should guard his honor with special
vigilance.

to tbe point a littlo cIoEtr in
affair, we are not so certain
that these self-constituted committees, un-
less they keep themselves within line of
modesty, do not in the end, do more hurt
than good. Tbey assume a great deal, put
1. vast amount of pretention, interrupt
harmony and eiertions of the legally

t ol tbo Cinoinnnti Enquirer, says it is
the opinion of tbe Chief Auditor of the
Treasury that by the first day of July neit
the public debt will reach SI,500.IKIf),000,
and that even this amount will probably fall
short of tho reality.

Allowing tbe estimate of tbe Chief Au-
or lo bo correot. the interest on that sum
■ li-ne, at seven per cent., will amount to

The war is not yot over. If it should

Wabbwgto.-j, April le — The followi
was received at tho War Depurlmei
from General Hunter, commanding
Carolina:

Port Hoval, S. C- April 17, (v,a Sandy
Hook) April 18,— Wo opened our butteries
Fort I'ulaski on the morning of the 10th
I., andaf tor thirty houTSContinnousCrJDg,
ft practioabln breach was made, ond prepu
rations for a .'terming were about to com-
mence, when tho rebel flag wua struck.

Wo have captured 47 guns, 7000 shot and
shells, 40,000 pound* of powder. ."WO pris-
oners, witb tboir small arms and accoutre-
ments, and a good supply of provisions.—
-if our mtn was killed.

cspcdally in flat clayey grouad, wbilo Ibo grass
will make where com ought to grow, 1( this
turns out lo be so, com will be higher next fall
lan now. Hands will be scarce, ond a largo
Bount of work cannot be done in a few doys
I IB aomo timea Ibo cose in kilo plsjiling.
The wheat crop, up to this bme bos given evi
dence of aa onnaual yield. What effect tho ex-
traordioary rains may produce i..| not so certain
Thofniil crop is yetsafo aud promising immensely
disgusting to read the money and
broker articles in theJEostern papers, aad witness
the aniiely of these stock gamblera for bloud
ISO their sinhing, IremhUng forluoee. They i
gieol conaternstion jnat oow. There ia o doi
some minds as to the fato of the two battles lo
me off, the one at Corinth aad
Yorktowii. Hence tbe partial suspension of slock
iperotion lo sco the resulU.

Tho Tas Bill is stUl before the Uuited Stole
Senate — without action. But the negro aoppbea
tho two Houses wilh something to do. " Our col-
ored fellow citizena" bavo already commenced
petilions, oa "free citiians," ask-
ing further Congreislonol action in their bebolf.
They cow wnnt tho Qovernmeot to keep them,
their freedom will do them aa injury '. Slore
taien will bo required for this, and it may be
to keep tho Tij Bill back to learn bow much to
add for tbo negroes" benefit. This idea of making
taxed slave? of tbe while men of the North, tbi
the negroes may go free, and aupporlcd at the
Government expense, will be very closely e:<am-
ined. Let no one neglect to remombor this.

But wo (hoQ not occupy apace with anticipa-
■ tiona— W8 ahall take care of the facts, and surely
wo nre bkely lo have euoogh of tbem lo satisfy
all. A week or so more will Inro up many new
and important things lor coosideralioo.

It may be well to remark that it is now conced-
ed that the Tax Sill which passed the Hoace con-
toina so many abominations, that tho few days,
reflectioa given il since going to the Senate, that
all men of any ordinary reasoniog powers, bavo
become alarmed and express their fears of it-
This is a very pretly reflection on tbe House,
where il passed with ooly a few nojj— and Ihoy
denounced as (ruirors and ditfmjat' This trick
of forcing obomioaliuns upoa tho atalulc books,
should be exposed by every ptcis io tho counlry.
Tho man cowardly enough to tie driven into er-
r by such denunciations dcserros the contempt
" ■ itituents. Ho is a

Tho most continuooj firinp of musketry
and arlillory oyer hoard oti thia oonlioei "
\na kept up until niglilfa]), tbo enemy hsi
inf forced Ibo entire line to fall back nearly
Slf way f'oni fi6'<' camps to tho landing.
At a lato hour in tho aftpxuoun a dogportxto
effort was ninde by tho onemy to torn our
left and get poise^sion of tbolandiDC, trana-
ports, fcc. This point waa guarded by tho
gnnboala Tylor and Lexington — Coptaina
GniDD and iShirk, United StaloH nary, coio-
manding-- four20-poQnder Parrott guns, and
a battery of riflod guns. As there is n deep
and imunssable ravino for artillery or caval-
ry, nod very difficult for infantry at this
point, no troops woro stationed boro cioept
Jie nucceeory artillerists, and a small infan-
try force for their support. Juat at this
moment the ndvaaoo of Moj. Qen. Buell's
column, (a [.art of tbo DiviBion of Gen. Nel-
son,) arrived, the tiro Generjla oomed both
being present. An advance was inunediatc-
ly made upon the point of altaok. and the
inemy eooo driven back. In this repuUo
ranch is due lo the presence of Ihogunboata
Tylor mtd Leiingtou, and their able com-
lakudontd, Captains G<vinn and Shirk. Du-
ring tho night tho Divisions under Generals
Crittenden and McCook arrived.

General Lew. 'WallDCO at Crump's Ltuid-
:iig, eix miles beloir, was ordered at au ear-
'j boor in the morning lo hold his division
in Kodiness, to bs moved in nny direction
;<> wliioh it might be ordered. At about II
■ filoek tbo order was doUtored to move it
ip to Pittsburg, but oning to it being led
i.iy a circailoiis mute, did not arrive to tnko
j'Oit in Sunday's action. During the night
h\\ w[L3 quiet, and feeling that a great moral
advantage would bo gninod by becoming tho
attaoking party, an advance nns ordered as
aeon i\i day dawned. Tho rL-sult nn:
irraiiuol repulse of the enemy til all points
'■f tho line- from morning until probably five
o'clock in the afternoon, when it became evi'
unnt tboeaeniy was retreating.

Before tho close of the action, the ud-
vanoo of Goncrnl T. J. Wood's division at-
rived, in timo to take part in the action.—
My force was loo much fatigued from twc
days' bard fighting, and eipoaed in the oper
air to ndrenohiDg rain during the inlerven.
iiig night, to pursue ItomecIiDtely. Night
closed in cloudy and with bcavj- rain, mak-
ing tbo roads im])racti cable for artillery by
the nuit moruing. Gen, Sherman, how
■■ver, followed Ibe onemy, Gnding that th
■uoin |iart of tha army had retreated i
^•ood order. Hospitals of tho eueiny'
woDoded wer« found all along tho road a
lar cs pursuit Ti-as made. Dead bodies o
tho enemy and many graves were aijo found.
I inoloEo herewith report of Gou. "
which will eiplaia more fully the result of
Ibia pursuit. Of the port taken by each

him, and plats carefully prepared under his
Biiporviaion, giiing aoourato informatioa of

During tho two days' battle bo was
alontly in tho saddle, lending troops as thoy
OTTivod lo points where their services wera
reqnifed. Durine iho engagement be had
ouo Lorce shot under him.

The country will have lo mourn tbo loss
of many brave men who felt at tbo ballle of
rittsburg, or Shiioh, moro properly. The
oiact loBs in killed and wounded will be
known in a day or two; at present I can
ilygive it approiimotely ot 1,500 killed,
and 3,500 wounded.

Tho loss of artillery ivaa great, many
pieces boiug disabled by tho enemy'a shots,
somo losing all their horses and ninny
There were pcobnbly not lew than
two hundred horses killed.

The loss of tho enemy, in killed and loft
upon tho field, was greater than oura. In
wounded, the estimate cannot bo made, as
many of them most have been sent to Cor-
inth and other points.

Tho enemy suffered terribly from demor-
ali^^ation and desertion. A Hag of truce
wasaontinlo-dajfrom General Beauregard.

Tuesday, April. 8, 1362. \
Majm iitncral Cranl, Co'ntnanHin' Annu in the

Sir : — With the cavalry placed at my
command and two brigades of my fatigued
troops, I went this morning out on tbe Cor-
inth road. Ono after another nbondonod
camps of the enemy lined the roadt
hospital flags for their protection. At all,
wo found moro or leas wounded and dead.
At the forks of tho road I found the bend
of General'^Vood'a Division. At that point
dered cavalry to examine both roads,
ond found tho enemy's cavaby. Col. Dickey
of tbe Illinois cavalry oskod for re-onforci
ments. I ordered Gen. Wood to advam
tho head of his column cautiously on lL„
Ight hand road, while I conducted tho head
of the third brigade of tho fifth division up
tho right baud road. About half n mile from
the forks was a olonr lield through which
tho road passed, and immediately beyond a
space of some two hundred yards of foJleu
timber, andbeyond an extensive camp. Tho
enemy's cavalry could be seen in this oamp,
id after a reconnoissance, I ordered tho
10 advance companies of the Ohio (7th,
Colonel Ilildebraod, to deploy as ekirmish-
■egiment itself forward into
line, with an iulervolof 100 yards. In this
order 1 advanced coutionaly, until tho skir-
mishora wore engaged.

Taking it for granted that this disposition
would clear the camp, I held Col. Diokoy'a
Fourth Illinois cavolry ready for tbo charge.
The enemy's cavolry came down boldly to
the charge, breaking through tho lino of
akirmisbers, when the regiment of infantry,
without cause, broke, threw aivay their
mnskots and fled. The ground was admir-
ably adapted to a defense 'of infantry ogoinit
ouvalry, tho ground being miry and covered
ith fallen timber.

As tho regiment of infantry broke, Dick-
ey's cavalry began to discharge their OOr-
blnes, and fell into disorder. I instantly
orders lo tho rear of the brigade to
form line of battle, which wits promptly oi-
ited. Tho broken infantry nud cavalry
rallied on thia lino, and as tbo enemy's cav-
alry came to it, our cavalry in turn charged
and drove thorn from ihe lield. I advanced
the oenler brlgado upon tho some ground,
and sent Colonel Dickey's cavalry a miio
further nji tho rood.

On euimining the groundwhiob bad been
icupicd by tbo 77th Ohio, we found fifteen
>ad and nbout twenty-five wonndod. I sent
for wBgon* and had all the nounded curried
back lo camp, and the dead buried; nlso^
the whole camp to he destroyed. Here wc
found much ammunition for field pieces,
which wfti destroyed ; olso, two caiasons
genil^l hospital, with obout 3o0 Con-
feilerate wounded, and aboutSO of our own.
Not having the means of bringing tiieso
f. Colonel Dickey, by my orders, took a
rrender, signed by .Medical Director Lyle,
and all tho attending surgeons, and n pledge
to report tbemscWcs to you ns prisoners of
war; also o pledge that our wounded would
\ carefally attended, and surrendered to
( to-morrow, as soon as ambulanues could
J out. 1 enclose tho within document, and
'que<it tbaC you c-auso to be sent out wa^'-
n or nmbulnnces for tho wounded of onra
I morrow ; also that wagons bo sent out lo
bring in tho many tents belonging to us,
bloh are pitched all along the road for four
liles. I did not destroy them. However,
I know the enemy oannot move them. Tho
roads are very had, und tho road i.i
with abandoned wogous. ambulacci
lomber boie.i. Tho enemy has Buceocded
carrying (rff tho guns, but has crippled
his batteries by abandoning the hind iimhei
hoses of at tvost twenty guns. I nm ^atis'
fied the enemy's infantry ond oavolry pass-
ed Liot Creek this morning, Iravoliog all
lost nigbt, and that ho left behind, nil bjj
cavalry whiuh has protected bis retreat, that
tbo signs of oonfusion and disorder mark

A Ciinons Cliapicr on Food.
The diversity prevailing in different

tions io teforenco to ortJcTns of 'food sei
to confimi in its literal senao the proverbial
saying, that "one man's meat isanother
man's poison." Many nn ajticle of food
which is in high eslCBm in one counti
regarded in others with abhorrence, w
^ven famine con bardly aormoont.

In the Shetland Islands, it is said that
irabs and lobsters abound, which tbo p
latoh for the London market, but rein
^Rt oven when half starved.

The John Dory is reckoned by epii
mo of tho choicest of fish; but in Devon-
hire, where it abounds, and also iu Ireland
t used lo bo thrown away us unfit lor food.
There seems lo bo aomo superstition con-
nected with this, as it is said that a Devon-
shire cook flatly refused to dress it.

Eels — which are abupdont ond of good

ality in Cumberland and Westmoreland

id also in Scotland— are regarded by the
people there with ns much disgust as snnkos.

Sdnle, which is in high oslimalion iu Eng-
land, in Ireland is hardly ever eaten eioopt
by the firsbermen.

Scallops, on the other hand, which
reckoned a dainty in Ireland, aro hardly
r eaten in England: and although they
obundaut on many of the coasts, fow of
the ICnglish have any idea that they

The oultleiish (that kind which prodi
tbo ibkyfluidjaltboughfound on our coasts,
is not eaten by us; but at Naples it ia high-
ly esteemed, and travelers report that il
tastes like veol.

Cookohaferu are oundied and served up

ith other confectionery by tbo Italians.

Tho hedgehog no one thinks of eoting in
England orcept tbo gipsies, and some who
have joined thorn, and who report that it is

ittcr than rabit.

hut tbo«) in Ibo French whalers (with their
well known skill in cookery) are taid lo

ake a palatable dish of it.

By almost all tho lower classes in England

mJsoQ and gomo of nil kinds are held in
obborrence, aud so are fresh figs.

By tho Auslralinn savages frogs, snuke.^,
largo motbs, and grubs picked out from the
wood— all of which tho English settlers turn
from with disgust— aro esteemed as daiatisBi
but they lira shocked at our eating oystera.

Milk ns an article of food (eicept for

^king babies) is loathed by tho South Sea
Islanders. Goats have been introduced into
Bsvenil of tho Islands: but tho people derido
tho settlers with using Ihe milk, an' - '
them why they do not milk their eotri
tho other hand, dogs and rata are fn
articles of food with them.

Those last, us Is well known, ore often
oaten by tho Chinese, who nUo enl salted
earlh worms and a kind of sea slug, which

The Itnlion Freemasons have introduced

tbo eeromony of installnlion ; "Ina rwm

Our olecdona seemed to bo only tbo more
routine of tho same thing over nud ovui
again. Cowardice, corruption and imbecil-
ity cot no cheek, and reforms were further
aadfurther off. Tho vilest theftd of public
offioets were carefully smoothed
men seemed to take public placon as though
it waa only to see if anything was loft they
could lay tbeir hands upon. If un honest
man beppoccd to be elected, he at once be-
oamo tbo object of derision aud abuse, and
tho whole pack of hungry wolves wero upon
his scent in full cry for his blood. If an
Editor WAS honest aud courageous enough
to eipesQ tho acta of tbeso corruptionist^,
all patronage was at once withdrawn from
tim by tbia crow of publio robbers, nud the
people warned agalnat his paper, and Uo
was cast out us a dangerous man and " too
big a fool lo take eate of himaolf."

Through this prooesa. corruption tilled all
tba publio places, aud our National and State
Legislatures beoaaio tbo vilest instrumeni
'if tho publio higbwayinen. If not parties
la the schemes, and stockholders in tbo Jobs,
(hoy wero bought up with the cash down,
and (heir votes wero hawked about (o the

men shrink from tho publio councils, nod
bad men occupied tbeir places. Men wbc
othorwiso would have gone to the public

Tho Cinoinuali Oareffe of Saturday give)
I tbe following homily on our present posi-
tion and (ho future now looking us directly
tbe face. Our only surprise is that the
Gazette had not seen these thioga earlier,
and, aeeiog tbem, done its duty aa a publio
journalist, in showing them up to tbo pub-
Had tbe public papers paid less utlen-
to tbo " onwnrd " movement of tbe ar-
:, and more to tbe political and finaooial
policy of Iho Government, tbey might have

good service to tbo publio, A
they bavo aided in precipitating Iho Gi
nicnt into its present embarraasments, by
elaborately puffing the actors in tbe^o polit'
ical and financial misfortunes.

Tbe Gazttie now sees, and evidently sect
clearly, if it dared eipcess its thoilghts ia
full, the sud predicament iuto wbich we have
pluugcd for the want of the propei
and discrytion, to say ootbing of tbo evident
lack of honesty. Tho Gazelle now as!
that tbo negro be aeperaled from tbo legi
Intion of CougresB. It admits that to fr
him aud turn bim loose will bo fatal; that
to cDn/ucaic him is n ridiouloua farce, only
involving us in further troubles, debts and
destruction.

Wo say to tbe Oazettc uow, we have said
it from tho first, that the wholo confiscation
idea ivits not only a fotal error, hut a gross
vroug, workiug nothing but evil, and that
n violation of conatitulional uutbority.
J-jt to put tho best face upon it, we have
^ot lo got the property before confiscating
t, Wo aro now speaking of private prop-
Tly — estates, etc. Tho way wo havo been
progressing, our victories and tbe advance of
;a into the seceding States, only
bring upon us new ombor ragmen Is, and
tend lo prolong rather than settle our euor-
trudbles. Wo {lolnted these things
s plainly ns it was prudent to do a year
Qoro ago, and never lost sight of them ;
uatead of profiling by our advice, wo
only met by unmanly denunciations,
and libeled as an enemy of our country,
when wo wero pointing out the only road
by which it could bo honorably saved. Not
for B moment doubling tbo end to wbioh
should all he hurried, we felt willing to bide
r time and see who was right.
At last times have become serious, very
rioua — blood and treasuro hnvo flowed
freely, anB tho Bow is not stopped,
signuf it. Depiction, every doctor will toll
produoes cxbaustion — but will oihau.s.
1 produce reconciliation and a Govern-
nt? When the price of Government
stocks depend wholly on tbe bnttlo-fiold, it
may well ho asked whether human blood

basis on , wbioh to issue paper, ns
gold and silver? To us Americans the
idea ia a new one, and the eiperiment most
dangerous and uneorloin. Tbo farmer
wbo worried bis sheep wilh hti dog Dlucb-
er, as he had done his pigs, gave Bluoher
the taslo of (he blood of mutton, and ho
turned a sbeep killing dog.

Wo do not understand all the Gazelle
says about using tho negro in the Army, on
lorlilicationa, A:o, Who put those negroes
ut Port lloyal to raising cotton 7 Was it
not by order of tho Government at Wosh-
iugtoa 1 Why not just aa well have order-
ed tbem to work on fortifications, aa tho
Gazette suggests ! Wo can see no dilfer-
ooce, except that to work for tho army
would havo had aomo reason in it, while tho
other was a mero Yankee speculation. —
There is no sense, thereforo, iu tho turn tho
Gazette would give this part of tbo ne-
gro business, now so traubleeom6 to the
geltora up of tho '• black elephant show,''
Of course no General, wbo has any seiiso,
would want his oamp filled up with uselesp,
idle, buy, lounging negroes of all s!z>:s and
sexes. Wbo but an absolute idiot would

-permit it — sufi'er it an hour J

You can only smooth your horsos liido by

currying " wilh tbe hair."

Vbo idea of supplying our Snsuces with
property seized in the South is a grealfalla-
sy. The nrmy in tbo South, could not pay
itself by such means many day.-,. And
what is tbe West to do if its groat soulhorn
mnrta arc destroyed 1 What would bo our
future as western agriculturist!', if ive leave
planters to buy of us. Turn (be ne-
groes loose, (wbich is Ibo great nbolition
iden,) nnd what is tho South worth (o a,
(o any body else ? Our Wosleru people
beginning to lock at this measure in its (rue
light. Wo might as well buru down
dwellings, and make bon*firps of
ploughs and harrows, na lo lay waste tho
country on which we depend for Iradi
market. Therefore, as western people, wo
have a deep interest in proservingtbo South
as it is, and restoring tho Union ns it was.
And as Western people, we should delay no
time in protesting against either its loss to
us as a porlioo of ourselves, or it^ destruc-
tion aud desolation.

That our finances aro merely haugiug,
from day to day, upon a breath, which when
blown, may send tbe whole cob-bouee struc-
ture to atoms, should never have been a
matter of difference of opinion from tho
first. Wo have, from time to lime, laid that
subject bare, and bo whooboso to rend co
do so. If he could not undorstand. we
net think it was our fault. Tbo GazetU
mistaken when it excuses itself under tbe

plea that
political affairs n
jected to by any

of o

ir forbidden o
thy of notice,
side of tbe rauh of army oontraclorii aud
tbeives and such dupes as suffered thom-
elves to be humbuged by tbem. That men
u high places wore deceived, nnd foolishly
o, by these " /oyaiiJlJ." is very true, ond
or a time became theintrumentHof opprea-
ioa for wbieb tboy havo yet got to make
lue eiplanation. Tbe " contraband '' nt
vos of a " military " character, and this
.triotion was run in the ground at timee,
ind at others a set of letter writers
permitted to loaf upon the army and
questions detrimental to tbo harmony of tho
idera, and the i-fiicioncy ef tbo dis-
cipline. The great difficulty seemed to ho
Ihat no one could properly make a distioc-
between that wbich was really con-
traband, and tbat which belonged lo the pub-
lic aud a free pre?3.

We therefore say to tho Gazelle, that the
louer it and other papers take up thi
gher (juestiona uf national inlcresLi, and
fully disouBs tbem, the betler for all con-
cerned. If tbey are all right, say so, and
show them to bu so; If wrong, throve such
light upon tbem that tbo wrong may he
righted, and the country saved tho disgrace
of utter finaucial ignorance. If there is
volcano under us, wbich nothing can control,
then eiplcdo it at once, and let it spread
violence before it gels greater force by ;
voror compression :

If this cna ootbe obtoiaeO, regal government will
nru the defect. II it coo be, a Republic

civiiizutioo aud intelligeoce are more equal-

opinioas, notwithstanding occasional divergencies:
and it hi this uniformity, this consistency, and co-
herence of Iho whole mass wbicb bos rondo it
possible for IbugovommcnC toact with prompti-
tnda and decision. It would be a sreat mistake

suppose thai free inatitutioD.^ had liecD adopt
. _ from chuicL*. Tho monarcbical regime was
discarded, becuuse it was a uatlei of option to
reject it. The structure ol society, which rules
over nil political institutions, forbid it. The
Bcbeme formed soon allor the Kevolutionary war
to make Waibiogton king ivas stifled in itti ouo-
ceptiaD, bucuuieltwas an attempt to receiM all
tba known laws of society.

It is a great protection to n community wbeu
its destiny is made to dopuud upon certain fixed
principles ; nod the protection is increased as tho
structuru uf society becomes mote complicatod.

Tbo spectacle is now so lamilior to us that we
nro uunblo to appreciate Its character. But if
wa were transported back to the slxteentb or
seventeenth century, we would iaataally perceive
the dlReronco between thu wild uproar which
tben prevailed, and tba tranquil condition of so-
ciety which now exists. Tho very causes which,
it is supposed, threaten to paralysu tbo pubh'c au-
thority, avo cooatnntly opemting to strengthen
it. Tho unbounded frceaom of ihougbt and aa
tioD is fijrevor employed in oalnrgiog tbo field of
individual and eocini enterprise. And oven if
theso did not lay the foundation of tbatgeneral
principle of subordination, which commences
with civil life, and is aflerwards carried inio po-
litical life, tbcy would be of lueslimablo value lo
withdrawing the mind from attempts hoalilo to
the government.. Thoy who suppose that every
pettr coiUDiuliou, ur that oven agrcat commotion,
threatens to gubvert the oslsling form of govern-
ment in tbo United States, contribute, by theit

^quiro so many guards bolb in pubho and

tinoio lilo. against mistakes or excesses oi one
ind or another, tbat every doubt, every scruple,
with regard to Ibo course whither wo arc tend-
ing, is invaluable. It is Iho class which enter-
tains these misgivinga, which coolnbutee to save
tbe government from abipwrock. But it ia tho
free inatituliona of tbo coontry which havo crea-
ted tbat claas. Io 17P5, Mr. Fox writes to a
frieod; "I am cooviocad that in n very few
years Ibis government will become a deapolistii,
or tbat contusion will ari«o of a nature as much
to bo deprecated na n despotism," Tho predlc-
!! has been signally falsified. But it has been
because tho fears entertained by him nere felt
by tbo wbolo pnrty of which be was tbo leader ;
and tbe^o arieatcd tbe headlong prcceedioga ol
tho government

Ttiat which placea the ureatcst imagiaable dil-
lereoco between tbo question of mooarcby in tbe
United Stales and io Europe, la that in Iho lost
the institution sprung originally frnm an uncivil-
ized eociety : it was a spoataneons growth. But
in the laat it would have to be established on re-
Qeclioo. But tho moment we Ulk of refieotioa,

B an ond to tfaoKo schemes which preiumo
ihat men are to ba governed by tho furco of the
.magmation, I believe, if tbo Eogliab people were
jutirely free from the prepoiie salons, wtiieb thu
bablt of liviog under regal gorornmont from time
immemorial has created, nod weio now to set
about framing a ooustitution, tbat neltlier an her
editary prince, nor no order ot nobility, nor an
ccclef iaatical bieratcby, would have a place in tbe
system. Tbcsa iostituljuna are too groteaque and
artificial lo aug^ieiit themdclves lo a cnavention
which was framing agovernBient for a highly ad-
vanced aooiety. A convention nuw assembled,
would Dndoabtedly areola n atroDg government;
it would coafino the ofTectire political power to
tbe middta class. It Ih only aince thia class has
bccomu a great power in tbo State, that it bna
been able to ioflueuao all the motiooa of the gov-
ommeDt. Compoto tho Irigblful condition of
France under Charles VI, or of Sjiaio, under
Philip v., ivith tba prosperous conditioo of Eog-
laod under George tbo Third, and wo con bo at no
lo5B to seize thu cluo which explains Ibo difference.
Ml these mouatcha were snbject to fits uf insani-
ty. In Iho couDtry where agreot middlo class
was rising up, the public councils were distin-
guished for pcomptitudo and decision. In the
— where tba population was a rabhio, they

all-poweiful for evil; in the Gnat, the population

Tbo government ia just now employed with an

a laudable attempt lomalolain itsaupremacy over

idence of being permitted to enjoy the benign ad-
vaataees of living under Iba best political system

able uodertoking is not only one ol too much

!n these days of peril to our Government,
iiiatcnd of Congrees, the President, and
bcada of dopartmeats being employed Iu oac-
xyiug out their fanaiiciaui about slovery,
they had bettcrbe finding out the truo mean-
ing of the ConalitutioD, and in carrying out
its spirit, nnd trying, ns fur as pcnolicdblo,
to reunite tho States.

those ground to death with lasts, which

have lo be paid — nlll bo upon Ibo beads of
Lincoln, Seward, Chase, nnd oil the gang
whose base liearta conooived and planned
tho wrongs upon tbo people of. tho South.
The fact that Southern leaders might, bad
they not ahaodoued their posillous undoi
the Government, bavo prevented those moi
from carrying out their purpose, don't wipo
out tbo memories of tho wrongs Intended by
them in gelling up their party.

Even with Iho foiling ruins of the Gov
crnoieut around and aXout Ibcm, nnd tbei
calls nnd appeals lo the parties they oppoaet
to aid in provculing tbo (otui dcalructioii c
the country, they can't avoid lotting out,
day by doy, tho ono accursed idea ' '

tbo party wqh formed.

Yes, Cougress bas said tbo sla
Dislriot of Columbia shall be free, and that
Iho owners shall bavo just what
Congress bas fixed iu tbo bill, to cover the
loss thoy aro to incur. This poner, wbioh
bos always been denied aa being ono dclo-
gated to Congress, has been exercised at c
time when tbe border stave Slates bavo been
nndcrgoing oommoliona and eicitomouts of
Iho most terrible character, growing
the purposes oharged upon (bo party In
power, nnd denied Dy them as lo elavery
0 very n be re.

Ttio esclusivo power of CougrofiH (o h
isloto for Ibo Territory where tho seal of
government is looaled, has been construed
by those pos^inc tho emancipation bill Iu
give Congress the right to ta\o any man's
properly und do whatever Congress may bo

pleased to declare shall bo dono with it ;
provided ConRTO's first fiiea a price on it,
and provides for its payment.

That ealutory restriotion wbiob prohibits
oporty from being taken for public use,
itboul just compensation, as declared in
article five of tbe amendments lo the Con-
stitution of tho United Stnt.-H, bas no longer
any meaning, nor is of any force. An
amendment which was intended to make
private properly inviolable, esccpl where
tho p^ublic use demanded it to bo taken, is
" ' on tbo easy dodge thai tho negroes
taken for public, use, nnd theroforo
don"t come within tbo above restriolion, nnd
that Black Republicanism is acting most
generously in providlngany pay for ihom in
conneotiou with the omancipntion. Whata
party, and what a mission it has before it,
to ho porforuied iu four years !

There is uol. in tho case of tho people of
Washington, the slang cry of necessity lo
put duivn ihe rebellion, because the people
iboro bavo not been in ruhollion. T&ero is
nothing of oxcuae or justification in the
passage of the bill — no military necessities
or Stalo exigencies wo bcnr eo much ol iu
Kentucky ,

No, it was tlio exhibition of a bruta-foroo
liver, growing out of there being a Black
liepuhlionn majority in Congress, n potty
exhibition of their malignancy towards tho
"—ira of slaves. It mailers not to them
of Iho owners wore loyal and who were
disloyal. Ilnd General Washington him-
self been living in Washingloo, nnd Iho
rof a slave, it would bavo been th<
thing to them.

eae iiomaouiato priests at Ihe altar ol
Liberty care no moro for tho saoreduosa ol
private rights than thoy care for tho leooh'
ings of their Bibles or Iho memocies of tlieii
fathers. Lot any man who chooses tost
them by showing there would be a reason-
able ohniico of dividing out the hinds of any
part of the oountry among them and their
parly, and bavo nothing lo pay therefor,
and authority satisfactory to them could
easily be found in Iho Constitution of tho
United Stales to make the division by act
of Congress. Thoy would want no aid from
the judiciary, nor any valuers or appraisers
—Iho Congress nod Executive alone posi
ossing abundance of powor, under tbo w£
principle, if not found elsoivhere to mnb
tbo division.

Tho omonoipatiou bill is but the precatsor
of others quite as just, ijuile as honorable,
nuilo as constitutional, as will be passed by
the eame Congress, to be executed by tho
same Executivo, aud excused und justified
by the same people wo hoar making oici

But what onro tbo party in power about

If my uogro is wonted, not for tho publi

supply of these two indispensable requisites
lo lie successful prosecution of modern war-
fare, in the beginning of tho war, wo should
have put on end to it Jongago. Let Franco
raise tho blookade, and we will soou do it
BOW, and, In order to effect that desirable
object, nothing is more necessary than n
simple declaration on tho part of Franco
that she will no longer respect il. It is,
after all, the merest of shams In the world-
It is nothing more or loss than a paper
blookade, suoh as England imposed against
Franco by her famous Orders in Council.
Already five hundred vessels havo eaccess-
fully eluded il, and thereby oalablisbed the
fact that it is no blockade under any inter-
pretation of tho Treaty of Paris. France
bos an opportunity now which will never bo
offered her ngain. She may secure our
coasting trade — if our Government should
not unwisely prevent il — for we have no
ships worth speaking of.

Count Meroier has opened negoliatioiu
with the Secretary of Slate, aad Congress
havo determined to remain at their post dur-
ing tbe important mission of the Minister of
the Emperor. Auv kind of arrangement
will ho made with the I'residontof the Con-
federacy, and this is a perfect acknouiledg-
inent by France of our independence froM
Ihe old Uniled Stales. I omliappy that my

with regard lo Iho coming crops of spring
grain. During the last four or five weeks
it has rained almost daily, till tho soil is so
thoroughly saturated with water as to pre-
clude the possibility for some time of either
plowing, sowing or planting. Tho danger
of this ahorlening of the acoson is fell
doubly at this time in consequence of about
fifty thousand of our Ulinois farmers being
now withdrawn from the State to fight for

of the danger is averted; but at present the

while tho SoQthcm pcopio lose nolhJoe by

but ruin, IcrribK vast roin to both Bides.
Tens of tbiiosanda of lives are foolishly bho-
rificed by this mialakou policy, as woU as
properly to an endless, incalculable amount.
"Viotorios become of little viiluo under such
ciicamslances. Union men sppiu to disop-
pear, with Iboir property, as wo progress
South. There must bo somctbing wrong
about this wholo matter, oi- we have been
feeding upon falsehooaa for Iho past year.

There have been numerous bkirmishes lor
the paet week ot mony points but notbing
of consequence baa occurred.

Pretty near nil tho forces that conld be
Bparedonboth sitloa. bavo left llio MIsjIb-
sippi river and tho Missouri and Arkansas

General Halleck has made bat bIow pro-

Hicknesa, Ho was, no Satnrduy, closing on
Pea Ridge, sii or seven miles from the
Landing, where the Confederates appeared
in conaidernhle force. Corinlb i* some
twelve miles beyond Pen Ridge. There are
rnmors that Beauregari> will not rauko a
Btnnd at either Pea Ridge or Corinth, hut
inovo further south or west. Avery few
days must decide this part of tbo quesliou.

The neit great point of interest is at
Yorktown. Prom this place we can know
but very little. General McClellan finds
bad weather and many other obstacles to
his advance, and will, from necessity, take
bis timo to it.

We bavo continued rumors from Portress

Tbo House, on lost week, poalponed, ui-
lil ncxlJanuaTy, tho bill repealing tbo law

ty, whidi had previously passed Iho Senate.
Wo siueo ]enm that a motion was made
;o reconsider Ibo vole poelponing tbo bill,
and tho motion laid upon the tabic. Under
tho rules of our Legislature, this leaves the
motion suhji-ct to bo taken up any time bo-
foro adjournment. There is, theroforo, a
chanct yet iLot this bill may pass, and our
people be relieved of the eipenso of this use-
less, alar chamber court, inndo for bankers,
merchantu and money leaders, to Ctosb out
those indilited to them without evei
appeal.

When niir people voted for the present
CoDSlitulnin of Ohio, they adopted what
Ihoy supposed was a judicial aysteni.bot
hero comes a new court, with a new and un-
heard of conception, ditTeriDg wholly from
le provisions of the Constitution, and out-
ido Ibo jiidiciol machinery of Ibe Stale.
lo man ever dreamed of such a court as
this when he voted for Ibo present Consti-
tution. It is like a side ebow at a circus,

Tbo MosiTOB ia clearly a failure, or the
Meswmac wonld not produce so much con-
BtetnatioQ.

A revolution hns been produced in Iho
whole naval world by tho iron duel between
these two boats. Since tho news reached
Eutopo. tho British Parliament bus done
little else than talk about it. It knocked all
their w^wden navy into kindling wood, and
thoy gave ctdera lo slop workiny on nuch
humbug fishing smacks, as they ar» now of
little more use than a two moBl couslor.
A general hubbub is kicked up in tbo navies
of tho whole world. Now the man who can
invent a canon which will bo able to put a
ball Ibroogh a two feet solid iron verllcln
Blab, will moko his fortune. That has got
to be done, or all "sen port towns" hnvo
got to bo moved a good way back into Ihe

The papers f>.r tho last week bavo had n
vely timo ovor thy rolention of Col. Moody

ordered lo Tcnnosseo under tho

The

great quest

, bo

■hother tbo gallant fighting Pardon, Col.
Moody, was rolained beconso Camp Chase
Id not do without him — whether bis Reg-
iment did not want bim, or whellior tho par-
backed down when it camo to tho pinch
ffir. Another story is that the Regi-
ment wanted Col. MooiiY as Chaplain, lo
pray for thorn, while the Col. himsolf wauled
lead tjiem lo fif^ht.

Now, as nowapapora and strooi gablcra
,vo no right lo know military scctots. wo
thiok the public should bo satisfied with
ov. Ton's testimony, which shows that tho
ol. was retained for tbooioeltent manner
t presided over the Department of Camp
liase. and therefore his services could not
ith propriety be dispensed wjtb.
Our neighbor of tho /onrno/ was bitter,
very, on Lieutenant Colonel ScntiADER, in
command of the regiment, charging bim
ith getting paragraphs published in the
iDciuuati papers rejecting on Col. Moody.
ow, wo aro authoriEed to say that there ia
it a word of truth in the assertion — Ihnt
Lieutenant Colonel Sciirader is a gontlo-
a scholar ond a military man of the
first order, and attends to his own busiucsa
yd lets newspapers attend to tbeira. No
giment has two finer officers than Liou-
nant Colonel ScaitAUER and Major Bal-
iRD. That is certain.
Tho fact that Col. Moody started to Day-
ton to whip tbo editor of tbo EmpiTc, is
proof of bia courogo. He was persuaded by
ids not to do it, and desisted. How the
of tho Cincinnati Commtrcio/bas been
settled we have not learned. It was a
great iudiacretiou to gt.-t this affair into tho
newspapers. It bas caused a great deal of
improper conversation and loft the imprea-
sioQ that there was something wrong, proof
positive to tho contrary notwilhslanding.

P. .S-— Since the above was in typo wo
learn that Col. Moody could only be got
back to campi after starting to whip the edi-
if the Dayton Empire, by apcr-empto-
ry order from Gov. Tod, sent by an Adju
tnut ju^l aa tbo cars were leaving. This
IB the Parson's courage boyond all dis-
pute, doubter equivocation. Wo hope this
.11 put a atop to these slnndera against the

idmirebia enterprise in this aa much as
avo hie courage in facing a malignant
get of abolitionists who have for the post
year tried bia nerve severely.

But will it pay its way. in a town of that
xo, where not more thau one half tho pop-
lalion will support it ? The oholition elo-
lent there aa in other places would not sup-
port any thing ebort of on emancipation of
tho negroes. So far wo may speak with

A ti'ccDt Icitor from Col. Wm. U, Gibson,
of tbe J!>Lh Obio, has bEen published ia the
paper?. This letter is worthy of note, and
83 Col. Gmsos was intensely Republioan,
before going into active service, and whoso
bravery in the midst of danger is ad-
mitted on 0,11 hands, ne hope his former po-
litical friends in Ohio will read it nith due
care and refteot upon it before they go much
further with aboUtion nooseDse. Col. Gib-
son writes from Tennessee and says :

"In this region erery one owns oae or more
alatej. Here ai elseivhere. where I bare beeo,
tho elates are neU treated and ivcU provided for.
They appear happier aad certainly live and ilresa
bettor thao the poor ivhitcs or the tree oegrota of
Ohio or the Korth. The; all Boppued no nere
about to liheralo them. This lie had been Crump-
•:t«d in tlie South, and hundreds of hooeit {>ca-
ple, aaidc from elavej, beUeved it. Out the negro
bore initincbvclf dreaila tbo North. They love
the South and arc devoted to tbcir uinsterg.

" I bare ivitneued dome touchiog ecen eg be-
tween uxiJed niuters, rutumed to their homer,
and (heir faithful tlare». /( is sirangt hom Jew
(rji I* acape or run niroy. I doubt if twenty have
come to the army mth nhich I have been con-
nected eince hut Sopteiuber.

"AbDUttbefann-EiouioaDdiQ the city the nhito
clfH&rea and blacli phiy together libe Lrothora and
ai9tc<^ It is my adibcrnic opinion that, in their
[ircient state of ignorance, dit alacc ralhcr fears
lAn a desires emoncipalion. They only reenrd their
appetites and comforts. They are woU houted,
nell dre£ud nod trcll fed. Tbey appear to naol
DO more. Tbeie facte coastituied no cicuae for
slavery, but I mention them as tending to shoic
dull slalcsmen had bdlcr til Uic ' nigger ' atone at
pratni, and addrces themsclvea to euppreising this
great rebdiion.

"tin Pi>aideat'e late reiolulion and tneiiage,
^Hto aiding emancipatioa, is recarded here oa
unn-orthy of his position. It contains propoii-
tiooi which are oot only iiDteQablo, but week ia
the oitreine."

This is an oitraordinary conversion, and
•590 'htTe beard of a great many similar ones.
"This negro fanAticism. irbich filled the North
wtUi nuthiog but lies and prejudices. Las
■been stimulated by office seekers for years,
imtiL, nhen tbey dnd tlie country dreaehed in
tba blood of white men, and themselves ex-
posed to the terrors of the brittle lleld, they
ECO the truth ii£ it is, and are ready, ut last,
tAlHAXJfjf to tbe fitcts as tbey exist,

"We'Cnnnol see tbo propriety, however, of
Col. Gibson siiyiug that lies have been
'■ trun\pcled iu the South," in regard to the
trus ^rposcs of the Northern abolitionists
d-aigning to free tbo slaves, '\\'e admit
that hundreds of thousands of Northern men
did uot believe that the purposes of tbe lie-
pulilicun party was lo liberate the slaves- —
Tbeir persistent denial of sucb a pur[iosc
led many honest men to disbelieve ihu charge,
but tbo iTcent 'aotiuu of Congress, especial-
ly thai <t( abolishing slavery iu tbo DistricI
f>£ Columbio, leaves this question no lougei
open to controversy. President Lincoln
Zii nhom tbe conservatives of tbe North, of
■all ^ftf ties, clung as a last hope, uoiv ver
<oolly and ungraeiously tells ihe world, that
4a3 uliruya bad desired it. Other nets of
'Congress, und bis own, stamps tbe fie upon
livery ODD who may horeufier deny [be
charge. I'here is nu middle ground, beuce-
forlb, lo atond upon. This will Ifuvc the
tesue broad, deep and undit)guisr;d.

Col. Gibson cousidL-rs the Presideni's
" late resolution and message " aiding einun-
•cipatiou iu thi.- States. ■■ as unuorihy o/ his

blood and treasure of white men to make
things worse ? The compromisa which tho
great portion of tbe South were ready to
accept, but which the RepubUcans scorned
and spat upon, would have saved Ibis Union
—saved thu Constitution— saved thousands
oi millions ot debts, and destruction of
property, und hundreds of thousands of
precious lives, and tens of thousands of In-
nocent families from poverty and mourning-
facts are everyday becoming moro
! self evident, njid tbe people more
and more determined to put tbo crime up-
the right ihouldera. As the Itepublicans
feel the loss of public confidence they will
holder and bolder iu their acts,
Loping for a time, nt least, to UuJ]' off tho
accumulating evidences of their guilt, and
lus stem Ihe torrent as long as possiblo-
ut this will only make tbeir short-comings
16 mors palpable and their doom tbe more
certain. Tho destruction of white
the sake of the negro, and bim injured, is
becoDiing tbo clean, clear issue between tbe
people of the North. You encompass
and land to make one proselyte and when
you have bim he becomes ten Limes men
the child of boll than before.

Wbiie Glljzcns IVrongnniy lui-

Tbo editor ot Ihe Rochester Daily Lnion ( Mr

Cults) writes to that paper from Waihiogton ;

' Tbe report of tbo Commisaion appointed ti

imine the cases of thoState prisoner cunfined

the prisons ot Waihingtoa, Baltimore, New

Vorh. Boston. Jkc, if it shall erer be published,

will make a profound sensation. The readera of

cently made liy Senators WJUon,

Trumbull, and others, because, na they alleged,

negroes were retained ia prison here, agaiatt

whom no crime was prorcd, and who could oh-

Q no rodreiB.

' But it aow appearv that a larga number of
white nion. quite as guiltless as Ue honorable
Senators themsolres, had evea then lain in tbe

misfortune to belong to a " proscribed race,"
y might hare rotltd in their loathsomo cells

From Filisburg Lnndlng-

Our townsman, Mr. Sessions, writes
with directness and without circumlocution.
It is a mistake, however, that oil our wound-
ed are sent to Cinciouali. A very largo
number Bro at Louiavillo. St- Loois and oth-
er places. [I was no doubt tbe desire to
send ;bem there, but in tbe hurry and con-
fusion and suffering, it was evidently impos-
sible in loading twonty-fivo to thirty boats,
as fast as Ihe wounded could ba got to
shore, or the boats up the river to
tbe landing, to assort them out. At such a
time, new lo officers and mnn, the best re-
ives and intentions ore frustrated.
Federal and CoDfedernle wounded lay
strewn in ovory direction, and common hu-
manity re<)uired that iboy should bo placed

boats out nf the way as fa;
brought in on litters, through mud and water
knee deep. Hence any separation of the
wounded was impossiblo ; the attempt would
have created confusion and delays, by which
hundreds would luive been sacrificed. As
it was, tho estimate, and a low one, is, that
one thousand of the wounded died for want
of timely aid:

Thirty or forty minotea nfter tliia line

tho enemy. Tbo nltack laateO perhopa

oQ', In this contest Captain Aoken, of the
lOlh U. S- Infonlry, waa instantly killed,
and mtiny Jthera of my biigodo killed ond
wonniled. The enemy soon rallied and re-
turned to the attQL'k niiore fiercely than be-
fore, but waa met hv a very rapid and well-
ilirecteJ fire from lie conimanda of Majors
Kia^ and Carpenter, nud Col. Smith — the
(ith Indiana hiAing out of range on the left.
Tbia attack, also, was. nfter a aovoro cm-
lest, repulsed and the enemy driven off^our
lo-sa be'mg much more tlian before. Wa
were Ignorant of the ground in front, oo-
oapied by the enemy, fis it was covered with
timber and tbicic andergrowtb, but were in-
formed that it waa mori; open than where me
were. I declined to advance my lines after
tbia alluck, and at once cautiously felt my
way forward, but bad not gone far when I
again encountered tho enemy in heavy force,
and again drove him off, af^er n yet severer
contest than any before. About thia time I
received soveral meaaages announcing that
the United Slates forcea to out light and
front, after very bard fighting, which we
had beard all the morning, ivero giving way,
(caving the center of the army eiposed. I
at once decided to movo forwnrd tne whole
brigade to ibe open ground, eicept the Cth
lodianai which held a most importnnt poai-
ticn on o'jr left flank, which position tbo en-
my had menaced in strong force for aoverol
hours. 1 ordered Col. Bnokloy, with tbo
Louisville Legion, to movo up to the right
and front and eogago the enemy, who hod
rallied all his available forces and waa moT'
ingdoivn upon ua. At the same time Majors
King and Carpenter and Colonel Smith were
ordered lo advance in lino with Col. Buckley.
Tho adennce was admirably made und with
iJocrity.

Tho brigade steadily, briskly, ond in ei-
celleat order moved forward. I oflerwords
learned from wounded prisoners that the
(orce at this time opposed to us consisted of
the 3d, Hb. 5th und tjlh Kentucky regi-
monta and aoveral olbera from various
StatOB. We advanced abont two handred
yards to the front, when wo came in coUia-
ion with tho enemy. He waa stronger at
ibia point than in either of bis previous en-
counters, and the fire of musketry was tho
heaviest that I over hoard. My line, when
^red upon, halted of itself and went to work.
The i55uo waa important, aa my hrigado
was directly in the road of the enemy to the
landing, ond they were ovidenlly preasing
fur that point. I was the moro fully im-
pressed with Iho importance of driving tbo
enemv from thia position by your words to
ffie ntflo you ordered a cbango lo the front
of your original line of battle, which were,
in substance, that my position was in tho
ceulre nnd mnat bo held at every hoiard,
and that you would support inewilb tho bal-
ance of yoor division as ii arrived on the
iield.

This fight lasted abo'Jt forty minulea,
tvhen the enemy gave way. and wore at once
pursued by ibo whole lino up lo the open
ground in front, ray brtgnde capturing aov-
eral cannon, retaking n battery of oura
captured by the enemy the previous day.
i|«id retnkiDK tbo bendijuarlera of General
McCleruand. We also took three Hogs
Irom the enemy. At tbitt limo the forty
rounds of carlridges of the men were ej-
Mbaastcd. ond tho line was balled.

Before I resolved to advonco my whole
brigade to the front. I looked for tho prom-
ised support, and found Col. Kirk wiibhia
origoiio in ray rear, within short supporting
■lutance. He told urn he waa there, by
your ordir, n. support mc, and waa renJy

lo more up with me. I rcnoeated that he

Abont this time n battery of two or three
guns, I do not know who?e it woa. took pe-
tition about tho centre of my lines, and
■opened on the enemy in front, then forming
for atlock. Thia battery I directed Majors
King and Carpenter, and tho (Sth Indiana
to support. Col- Crittenden having been just
beforo ordered up from bis former position
on tho left. I may hero remark that '
(ilh Indiana, in its old position, bod been
posed to heavy cannonading ou the left and
front, and had lost several men in killed and
wounded, and I had ordered it hack into tho
wooda. The enemy soon after advanced in
atrong force and menaced the battery, nnd
ita commander withdrew it, but the support
juat named stood firm against several liiheB
their numbera and ^IJantly beat off the
omy. In the meanwhile a supply of omt
nition for tbe wbo'e command was received.
I thus repulsed, tbe enemy fell back

saw two regimenta of Government troop!
advancing in double ijaick time across lh(
open fioltlin our front, and saw that one o:

to tbe regiment and ordered it tg
I had not ordered tbo movement,
informed that it vtaa advancing by
order of Qen. Grant, whom I then saw in
e with bis staff. I order-
ed the regiment lo advonce with the other,
which it did souio two or three hundred
yarda further, when it was hailed and a fire
opened upon it from one of our campa
I occupied by tbe enemy. Tbo fire was
instantly returned, and the enemy eoon fled,
after wounding eight men of tbo 1st Ohio.
This closed the figbtiDg of the day, and a
small body of cavalry waa sent in pursuit ot
tho enemy.

1 need not soy to you. sir. tbot my brigade,
officers and men, behaved well, for you were
an eye witness lo tho gallant Conduct of
tbom all ; nnd you will join mo in eipresa-
ing tho opinion thol men have seldom march-
ed into battle under more unfavorable aus-
pices ond uever borne themselves moro gol-
lantly. During the whole of the long and
terrific battle neither officer nor man wav-
ered for ono moment. When all behaved so
ittle room fur discriminative
of any. Many of them had
1 ojiposed, after great fatigue, too heavy
tbo night before on the steamboats, oud
all of them were necessarily greatly crowd-
lo that they could not aleep, and aa they
ched from the boats they passed throngh
amongst tho ten thousand fogitlvea
n the fight, who lined tbe banks of the
r and filled the wooda adjacent to the
landing. Within n quarter of a mile of the
landing, and directly on the way to our po-
''■-- on the field, lay hundreds of dead
lostly our own, whose mangled bodies
nnd distorted features presented a horrible
ight. Numeroua dead horses, and our par-
lOlly sacked camps, gave evidence of tbo
havoc, and. which was far worse, of the re-
versea ond disasters of the doy before. All
around them impressed Ihem with the belief
that they must fight tbe balilo for them-
selves. It must not be forgotten that we
fought tbia battle some miles within the lines
pment of Gen, Grant's army,
ond in the comps occupied by bis troops,
and that ii was thereby rendered apparent
to tho most ignorant soldier tiiot the army
bad been driven in by the enemy till within
idred yords of the river, and that
tbo work before us was by no means easy.
Under all these unfovorable circumstances,
you will recollect, sir, tbe men wero in
way appalled, but formed line of battle
promptly and with great coolness and pre-

To Majors J. H. King nnd S. D. Carpen-
r. of tbe regular army, who commanded
the regulor troops in my brigade, I om ea-
peciolly indebted for the valuable aid which
their long experience as soldiers enabled
them 10 lender. Captains P. Swain and E.
F. Townsend. commanding battahona under >

ous for good conduct. I strongly recom-
mend these officers to the proper outhorilies
by profession who hove shown
themselves amply fit for higher ofheeaof'

Tliv Ainouot or the whole itlallcr.

The general summing up shows that there
baa been hut very liltio gained on either
side. Tbe loss is pretty neorly enuol, nnd
the enemy has nof been rouled. Their re-
treat was in perfect order, and woa one of
the must masterly movements over made by
on urmy of the number. But we have this
mupb to eoy of our side. They allocked
ua wilh grcnlly eoperior numbers ; they did
not Bucceed in whipping ua in a twelve
hours' fight; and when we received reia-
forccmeots. making our number equal to
theirs, in onolLer twelve hours' hard fight
we repulsed them.

Like tho dug und fox, I think it's about
••ui|. and tuck." If anything, we're n little
ahead; but so litHo jtia hardly perceptible.
Tbey have luken more priaonera than we,
und wo liuvu killed more than they.

But uunippiirtuniiy f,)r sending Ihia is
juat nuic, und will not have auotbnr suou.

In the interval of "wor news'' which ie
now tbe all absorbing topic, we have, at ci
slderable labor, condensed from our i
changes the following statistics in rolati
■ to the " Hog Crop," which will ho interest-
ing to oor readers who aro engaged in form'
inp nnd stock raising.

Tho statistics do not indicate the increase
of tho crop in tbe fullest oitent, owing to
tbe pccnhur existing circumstances of tbe
post season, Tbe shipments have bi._
made principally to tho Enstem cities. The
quality of the pork, this season, is very
superior ; the hogs being young, and fed
corn, nimost eiclusivol]', from first to lo .
which is not generally the case, so that, not
only is the quantity very Inrge. but
quality is superior to that of any previous
season.
Wo include in our statiatics the bogs
.eked in Ihe insurrectiouory district; '
unnesaee, rumor having placed a large
proportion of thia ilem in poeaession of tho
Federal Government. Pork packing tbi
season hos been unusually late; only last
week it closed at Cleveland, Toledo,

Tbe following toblo will show the i
ber of bogs packed in the sQverol Si
named:

Thus, it ia seen, that tbe inorease in num-
ber is 703,596, including Tennessee; and
without this State, 526,5^6. This increase
IS CGual to aboQt 32E per cent.

With reference to tho increase in weight,

The yield of lord has been large, unusu-

that at quite o largo number of places a

The Iflnssacre nt Lee's mils,

A letter from near Yorktown thus i
scribes the terrible alfair ac Lee's Mills last
Wednesday, of which partial accounts have
been publiahad :

From the Sergeant I learned fiae partienlnra
of tbe fight at Lee'a Jlilk. He eaya tbe action
commenced with abriskcasoDaadBoa bolfasidca,
loatiog fur aome time, wbea ILe rebel cnns were

to advoncu. Tbo order was easier given

than eiecuted, bonever, fur tbe rebel iotrencli-

low, from tbe Dcccfiity ui wading, and sen-
oualy obstructing tbo proceaa of loading; in fact,
^ring it impracticable where the water was
decpeat. Some pereoca estimate tho apace to bo
:d at forty tods, but my iofonuoot regards
_. ja an exaggeration. He eatimatea it at Qf-
leen rode in extent. Even takiog Ibo loweat fic-
ire, the diDically uf IbueudvaDciogoa a conceal-
ed foe, protected by breoitworha, will be at once
perceived. Notblpg daunted, however, tbo Oreon
Mountaiii Bofeat once dasbed ialotbe water and
begun to ^vade towards Ihe rebel works. They
were permitted lo advance conaidernbiy more
than halfway, when tbe rebels opened a terrifie
1 of musketry upon them, cutting them down
every side. The Vermontoie Rred in retom,
i on attempting to reload, the depth of water
.jdered it almost impossible, oud after ttanding
theirgroundfor lomo time they were compelled

The cuncinij of tbe rebels ia allowing tbem lo

Paper Madf: from Corx-le-Wes.— The
London Mechanic' Magazine states ibot
excellent paper is now made in Europe from
the leaves of Indian corn. There la one
paper mill in operalion in Switicrland. and
another in Anatrin, in which paper ia made
from suohleavea oicluiively. The husks
which invelope tbe ears of corn make tlie
best quality. As we ate dependent upon
Europe, in a greot measure, for our supply
of rags to moko our paper, if we can obtain
aa good qualities from Indioo corn leaves,
we may yet become , the manufacturers of
paper ior the whole world, oa the greatest
supply of cheop raw material ia found in
America. This ia a subjectworthy of deep
attention, as wo import rags to the value of
obout 31,000,000 annually, and paper mann-
faotures to the value of about §1.000,000.

That Report with other aimliar documents

iller has been more aud more sifted,

tho clamor against the Treaty whs local and
selfish, while tbe agitation has been main-
tained in other quarters for {iolitioal effect.
Thero ia abundant evidence that the trea-

admit that both parties hove profiled by tbo

grazed calmly, now raised their heads,

formed a compact band, nnd started at a
trot in the direction of some cottonwood
trees which etood on the banks of tberivor.
The hunt was about to commouco.

At B signal from Don Kliguel, six well

Canadian purchasers. The trulh is, our
shipments of free goods to Canada, during
Iho laal year, were equal lo tbo free goods
received from there; whilo tho ship

There cannot be, ionKepublicor Democ-

Hequence. But beyond this tboro ia no

the only i^ofo ground to preserve a democratic

tbe same capacity as tho Military power in
a kingly one. liven a liing, if limited at
all, is hj n written Itiw, sanctioned by the
people in «omo form or other. That written
form ia mailu to limit tho King and proaervo
hia Bubjoota from his iron rule. Our Conati-
tutioDS oro tho Governments themselves,
snd tbo rule of uction of those elcclt'd tem-
porarily to adminisler the Government.
We have not n particle of safety out sido of
our Constitutions I Stule und National,
liver-look, or over-step these und ive ate
upon a raging aea, whoso fury, or calm, of
dtspotiBm no ono can fathom.

We have uo other truedividions
"ver had, between parties, other than thoao
growing out of tbcso questions. In timo of
peace wo rely greatly upon tho honesty,
tegrity nnd wladom of our courts to stay
the hand of usurpation whether in legisla-
tive or administrativo notion. Wo had al-
most become recklea.ily careless of etretcbca
of power by our legislative authorities,
trusting to what was supposed the greatei
wisdom and roliabihly of our Judiciary.—
nut courts are not made up of nogela, aui
ii"nictime3 fail in their duty. The last re-
t'ltt is, therefore, to recur to first principlei
and fall back on tbo original power— thi
reaple.

In timo of war wo aro in more dangej
than in time of peace. Our eieolions which
recur at short intervals, answer
peaceful times, but in war they nro equal to
an ago apart. Pour years for n Presidi
tial term ordinarily appears but short, while
io times of civil commotion it may seal tho
fate of a nation nnd the liberties of a mn-
iorltyoE the people. Hence wo should he
doubly vigilant when Ibe greatest danger
threatens the Rcpablio— when templati
en tho sido of power are eo great to misoso
>t, and when thoeo who cipectto61l thci

sions which may iiolU .lut inducements

their unholy ends.

must look around us. therefore,
for our boldest and most fearleas Btatpamen,
aeu who form no combinations for tho sake
if power — men who risk woalthfor the publio
weni, rolher than seek personal advantage
from publio ruin. Wc cannot be too care-
re find men ready to ting
dumb for private gain, or becoma danger-
ifily windy on the sarfaco for pubho pro-
motion, with self ever uppermost, they are
least subjects of suspicion, nnd when
tested they will be found ready to join any
faction and poliUcol fraud by which an of-
bo secured and their pockets filled.
:iD as we are able to 6ad honest,
constitutional men for publio places, then
may look for better laws and better times.
3 cannot secure such men for public
places by any "union" ffith elements op-
to this. The trial ho); been made, and
it ia confessed a failure. Such unions are
of politicians seeking office.
All else is snorificed to that ono ainglo pur-
posed. Can a bleeding nation be saved by
lucU means? Wo ali know it cannot. Can
^onatitutiouB bo preserved In their purity
by such trading combinations 7 Every son-
ic man knows they bannot. Can honest,
aiblo, patriotic men support a ticket
mado op by such heterogoneoua associa-
tions T Wo think they cannot and feel
satislied that thoy have done their duty.
In all such movoments. the worst elements
get tbe ascendancy.

Up to this time tbe negro element has
worked falsely. The candidates havi? de-
nied tho very purposes of their organiea-
They have secured elections hy hy-
and hold lying, and when in power
they betray those who trusted to their asser-
tions nnd created the public sentiment. This
can bo done no longer. There is no loop
hole loft to escape tho pablic condemnation.
They have committed tbe overt act, and
they must stand by it. Union combina-
tions, and a rAang-(o/riain«,willnot avail. A
Democrat who would liereuflor lend himself
to such au abolition fraud would receive
double condemnation, and he could carry no
foUowera with him. He would, in fact, be
ore obnoxious than nn original enemy, ivho
. len^t might olaim to be honest in bis error.
wo hftvo no honest men left — if nil men
ivo gone into political speculation, und
-.1 seeking publio plunder, and hunting
halever belongs to the Stato ot Nation to
juvert it to their private uses, und there
not on honest man left in Sodom, then
deed wo havo got lo tbo end, nnd our sys-
lu is a failure. That tho thieves and pub-
lio robbars will preach this, go that thoy
may escape behind the suioko of universal
s not at all improbable. One has
indliug in railroads, another iuranals,
in bunks, and others in shoddy ouu-
until the combination is powerful
ough to suggest to tbom
tbo idea that all men are its corrupt as them-
ad all they bave to do is to tiay so,
ill be believed, and if behoved, their
escape from public condemnation is certain.
The conflict may be fearful, but the result
should not be considered doubtful. It can-
douhtfol if made intelligible t'> tho

We do cot think we tould ciu a butter
thing for our readers than to publish
the following debate, which occurred a few
days ago, between two prominent Bepubli-
can members of Congress. It is possible
that Home of our resdore may have suppos-
ed that wii occasionally use unneoeasarily
severe terms when speaking of the public
robhera and thieves who have been crying
havoo and blood, while thoy wero robbing
the people's treasury by millions upon
lions. This' debate shows whut they call
each other, on tho lloor of Congress, in their
oDSeial capacity f Mr. WAannuRNB cer-
tainly deserves the thanks of his country-
men, as well as Mr. Dawes, for tbo bold
and fearless manner they have, from their
seats, laid bare these public robbers, and
common highwaymen. In no instance has
it occurred that these common thieves havs
not bad men in Congress and in Stato Leg-
islatures to defend their plunder, and hide
away tbe stolen goods. The Legislatures
of Pennsylvania and New York have fo
ycara post been a full match for Congres)
and, most unfortunately for Ohio, the same
gang of thieves have found their way into
our own Legisluturofor tho last two years.
They commenced last year by stealing tho
canals and pouring millions into tho keep-
ing of Governor Denni30H. Thia year
they not only wero careful to cover these
corrupt transactions ovi^r, so that the peo-
ple conld not trace them op, but tronsfurred

-. nasti' to the permanent debt of the
State, while the Slate baa nothing left to

bat DOW. Any eipl:iDaiJon of uegobnt^on de-
nandrd or proposed out^Ido of tho House, will,
if coarse, be retpoiidod to according to the man-
ler in which it may happen to be presented. I
neither seek nor shun coatcoTcrsy with any gen-
tleman. Anything done inside, mnet bo setUod in
aceordsnce with the Ccnelitutioo, the laws, und
the ntlea of the House.

Now, in tbe first plBcc, I deny that I bote vio-
lated any rule. I txik a paper, and read from a
printed epoecb that which related to me peruun-
lily, and which contained a foul and infamous
ibel which the utterer know, nt tbo time, to be
false and slaodorou?. He, the member from Ohio,
talks novr, indeed, of Iho opprobrium of the npi-
Ihcts, " b'ar," "'sooundrel," und"cowardl" Does

Bt my npprfiheiiaion, Ifieem to Beesomo-

of tho fourteenth and fifteootfa

to frown upon ns from every eide with hoa-
lilo oDcl threaleDing oyca. The features of
'lo inquisition conducted in tho nnmo of
the boly office " were: firat, aecrcsy ; bco-
nd a moat intolerant spirit; third, abso-
lute, despalle, tyrannical power, subject to
no law; fuortb, dieregnrd of every just or

Tbeae were the great marked characteris-
tics whiob define Iho Inquiaitiens of an nge

youlb, and ehould be rt lesson for our ronn-
'looil ; a leason for our firesides ; a toasoti iu
ill places where people cougregnle, and n
lesson in this Semite,

idnnt, I propose, for tbo wisdom
of Ibis disoaasion, to iuetitulc a brief paral-
Tbo Senator from Obio, I Irual, will
rO ino if I employ his lungunge and ex-
ed opinions lor tbe parallel on one side,
I Iruflt lo the recoUectioDd of past
history ou Ibe other. Tbo parallel, or tbe
comparison, if yon please, will he hotween
iba inquiaition of tbo lifloenth century in
tbe States subject to Romo. aud tbo iuquial-
tions now recognised nud obloining in this,
lentlt century, in the ttepublio of
tbe United Slntea of North America.

I tviU firat speak of tho first marked fea-
ture of tbo nnoient inquisition — aocresy. —
That tbia was one of ilie grout features of
the Roman Inquisition Ja known to ult.
Tho next feature of tbe iuquisitiou is " a
lost intolerant spirit." To prove this I
'ill read, for I do not core about elaborating
r disouGsIng in detail tbo merits of tbo vu-
ious remarks of ihe Senator from Ohio ;

•' He may require all the presumptions of

not quotified by any term. A power which
ignores the Constitution and all law, A

which knona nuitboc tho Constitution, tbe

for England that her rulers in Inilin and her

tboy have noted generally aa became on-

oppoaition to tho ferocious howl which has
been raised by men who havo lived so long
among Asiatics as to havo imbibed their
feelings, nnd lo hove forgotten tbo

cruel as Covenanters without Ibeir faith, as
relentless as ioqoiaitors without their fanot-
ioism, Iheso sanguinary creatures trom the

lous cries ns they plunge their peas into tbo

May their school perish forevor, ond IhnI

probation of tbo world — to Ibe Crown of

This ISO voice from tho Old World, and
is worth tho thought of a moment of tbo
night inlermedinto the bowlings. Tho fierce
bowl for blood beard among as moat cease ; ,
must cerlainly cense; it mast cense overy-
wb'-re in thu Republic. I warn Senators
aud the country of this necessity. Above
all, 1 warn the young men of the Republic
this cry for blood must ceuse, or blood will
uot ceuso to lluiT until tbe lime ivbco, young
uion, your ohltdron will ho mothers.

I have said that tbo third fenlore of an in-
quisiliou is ubaulule, despotio power, sub-
ject lo no Icii7. Said tho gentlemaQ from
Ohio:

" Sir. the Dion who invokes tho Constiln-
lion inforbenrnnceof ibo low lo punish trai-
tors, is himself a sympathizer."

Is there nny law lo punish traitora that
contravenes tho Constitution ? I take it,
not. The Cooslitulion ia tbo HQpremo law
of tho land, and tbe bumhlost man may in-
voke it ; it is the shield of freemen ; and
when tbat shield ceases to be held up by
thoae who are in power lo protect tbo mul-
Itlude. tyranny rcigna among us. Again,
said the Senator :

" 1 do not want lo henr any more of a
man than that bo is invoking tbe forbcor-
nnce of Iho Consiitution and Uio great bar-
riers in favor of American liberty to pro-
tect nn infernal traitor in his course, to
know that be is a eympotbleer."

NoiT, let mo oak him who mado bim his
brotbot's jodge. or made Iheso commilleea

may appoint pcraooB lo power who, on care-
ful dolibernlioni with all Iho guards of lavr,

Hfr-T.'i II, pronounce judgment upon their

ocendings ! Sir, of all Iho fiends tbat livo

Arioslo uudortakea to make this terrible
enemy of nil uprightness a palpable thing,
und in Ibis attempt undertakes lo doscribo

Again, tho Senator says :

"The od ministration have altemped to
put that down; they have not aucceeded ;
uodyet the Senator stands there and says
you should not arrest a scoundrel wbcn you
i.oow his heart is with the enemy."

And who gave the Senator to know men's

thought that belonged to the Great Kuler.
who kuowB all hearts. Wo only, by infer-
ence from ncl.-i, have an opinion aa to what
a man's heart is, and where it slauds, ond
then it ii otteu a lame nud impotent opinion.
Ilero tbo Senator knows that a man's heart
is with the enemy without the facts, ae he
admits, on whicb to base the conolusioo,
ivithout even technical evidence, bo knows
that this man's "heart is with the emomy.
but who meanly skulks from overt acts in
their favor." Thoro ore, then, uo overt nets.
Lot ua inquire, if no overt acts, theu what

The Senator proceeds upon tho knowl-
edge of men'a bearld. What is more clearly
inquisitorial? What stronger term could
Torqucmado have used when, in the dun-
geons of the inquisition, he said lo bis vic-
tim, " I know your heart, and your heart is

Wiu- News or ttie Week.

Wo hove hud rapid ohauRea and advnncua
the past week. Now Oilcnna was followed
by tho fall of Fort Muoon.iit Beaufort, N.
C., and then the cssouotion of Yorktown.
These are the prinoipnl oveiita. Our es-
chftnges gouorally aeem lo think that this
pretty much cloaea tho war, so far as any
largo coufiict is concerDed, with the enccp-
tion of a probable contest ot Corinlb. wbioh,
nt thia momont, ia in some doubt. One day
we have rumors oi BcAUREtlAttD'a retreat
— tho no.it that he ia being reinforced. In
view of alt the facts before ua. wo cannot
see why bo should bring on a fight there.
He cerlaioly has more to risk thau to gain
by it; but aa wo have not made it our busi-
ness to set io judgment tipon military mat-
ters, especially before they are fully devel-
oped, vre arc of course not ca^tablo to form
an opinion of other mens' buaineas, of which
we can know but little, and tlioy know a
great deal.

Wo can saj Ih'ia mach with u clear cou-
scienco. that we should be extremely happy
to believe ihot the carnage hiid passed its
worat stages, imd tho hour of a cessation of
blood had dawned upon our nnhappy conn-
try. Wo are losing loo many men — bring-
ing death uud aorrow to too many doors, to
wiah to ECO the horrid accncs multiplied.

General McClellan baa won laurels the t
a Washington might envy, by his maiterly
atrategy, withoat tho losa of bis thousands.
HoiT many hearts will bless him— ^hoiv many
honors will not bo hia for his master mind .' ;

But lot us look at tho proipcci of peace. '
^Vo aaypenoo — for ivo suppose that is what
ibe papera mean when they tell us that the
buck of tho lobelliOQ ia broken, aud the
poirer of our Govornmeut ia ealabliahed.
Mr. Lisvoti told ua at first, that ■• wo can-
not alwaja fight." Wo all know that, and
hcDce all are looking to the hour when fight-
ing will bo over. J?'or tbo sake of argu-
nieat, at leasl. let oa great that the fighting
is over and poaoo soon tube proclaimed.
What then? Have wo pursued a course
which would make poaeo easy and a restora-
tion of tbo States of the Union a mere mat-
er of form, aud a recomtruolion one of a
lasting and permanent obaraotor — with in-
dustry and prosperity resuming ihelr wonted
cbauuolu }

Tbeiso are queatioDU of Iho deepest con-
sideration to us all. They are the chief
features of tbo praacct and future. If no
cannot bopo for those — if wo cannot propose
them, aud «ufitata tbeoi if aceepted, then
lYO are no nearer pence, and a counlry, than
bcforo the succeasea of our arms. In fact
wo havo really gulned nothing that will ro-
aolt in mutual benefits, und if not mutual
then tboy can havo no o:iislence. Unless
wo nro buok to tho point no left last winter
iL year ago when a Convention of Delegalea

reconciled it — not to -established it as a coa-

Ktitutinnol part of tbo Union, nith Seuotora

and Rppresenlativea elected by the free
frages of a free people.

Wo oomm-inced to presa tlaso views upon
tbo public b.'foro Iho war was inaugurated.

tho people— oolhing leas will compeiiaate
for tho loss of blood and treasure.

We say just here, ns it maybe of aervieo
certain gentry tliai tboy ahould know it,
and know it nw. You auid we wore a so-

Union with all its constitutional powers, and
tbo Statea with all their rights and indo-
pendonoo, juat aa they were when our fath-
ers gave them, and just aa thoy were before
thia aeotioual strife culminated iu diviaion

Can our opponents place tbeniaulves on
auch ground — if thoy cannot, it will not take
ich argiimont to prove IhattbeirUnionism

Wo may differ about tirms possibly — we
not fully posted on tho toohnieal mean-
in a r.epublio or Democracy of tho
word /o^/ii/. It is of loo doubtful applic

Seated in flalboula and keela to tho aunoy

leghany to tho Itooky mountaia range.
We ore ono people by all that can make
ua happy, prosperous, great, noblo and
powerful. W e havo aullorod inoalcutaby in
thia monstrous contest which had its origin
in Itoaton and Charleston. Wohave Buffer-
ed patiently, bravely, patriotically. But
wo bavo not liono it ignorantly nor without
watobiog. Wo huvo not slept as the
slaves oi European Deipots sleep over Iho
Cfaahiiig eleinonla around them, aa though
tbey wore maltera of indifferenco to tbem.
Assuming tho grounds thai fighting is
about over, no bavo tost no limo iQ looking

to tho still more mighty qoeationa which ari
to follow. Tho time for Btalesraen will fol
low Iho time for soldiers. The lime for thi
coolest and deepest refleolionwill follow the
impetuosity and eicitement of the battio'
field. We must pass from tho one to the
Other without suffering liine to break thi
Unk.

This public body of low makers, adjourn-
ed onlast Tursday night, ofter a four month's
aesstOD, to meet again on tho first Tuesday
of next January. The biennial elauso in
tho Constilotlon is thus rendered nugatory,
aud mcmbera ohe.it the poople regularly out
of one session. How long the people will
be aalisfied with thia praotico of doubling
their time we oonnot say. Wo alwaya op-
posed thia ohangc in our Consltluliou. and
atill belicTO our elcclions should bo annual
and the Legialalure also, but as tbo Conati-
tutiOQ reads dlfierontly wo cannot sea the
propriety of tho Logialoture wilfully and
continually violating it, without oven sub-
mittiug a change lo a vote of the people. —
It ia a apeoies of popular sovereignty wbiah
vo neiUier understand nor approve of. We
luggeated to the meraberBtbo great propri-
ety of their resigning and letting the peo-
ple elect a new JLegialalnre, thua conform-
the spirit of our institutions. But
Jeipebson truthfully said, "few die
me resign." Wo eicoft the case of
EHNON, the member from Belmont
county. Ho rasiguod his seat in tbo House
to lake that of Secretary of State, to which
piooo ho wos nppoinled by Gov. Tod, to fill
tho vacancy of Mr. CowflN, who had a bet-
post iu lb" army, not compatible with
that of Secretary of State.

Legislature has been very unfortu-

nalo in every way, and if it can survive tbo

of ail jinrlit:, and every body, and

again, it yM\ be in a conditioDJ we

should think, if it has auy spirit left, to

without some acts deserving of congrotala-

Bomcthing. They did not autborise a

that ia another thing. If wo find nuy thing

of very high importance we nro ready

to give them credit fur it.

Tbo great mistake tboy mado in the out-
set wos that Ihoy did not apend a few thous-
and dollars on " the two leading " Daily pa-

will never bo forgiven by these ■•twin relica."
They nbuoo this Legialature, llierofore,
without mercy, rhyme or reason, out of all
which good will come in duo time.

From the best information we could gol

be almost unanimous. Yet the Legislature
refused lo liaten lo tho prayers of Ibe peti-

As Col. Mooiiv is attracting a good deal
of atloution, a oorrospoadent euoloios tbe
following, wbioh lie eot from a newspaper,
for tbo Reverend Colonel's bouoCt and tbe
publio informaliou. Tbero is no doubl in
any one's mind any longer that our nation
is drenched in blood, through tho mallgnon;
labors of the clergy. Under a ■■ mission oi
peace" tboy bavo got out paoplo by th-'
oars, oud our nalioD in Its last throog, Tbero
was aignifioonce in tho old Slato Conatilu-
tiona which conlained clauaes d ia franc bisin"
these clergymen from holding office, Tbe
Revolutionary fathers understood them bet-
ter than wo. There was significance iu the
remark of Ceneral Jackson, whon ono ot
them called on him asking an offioe, and ho
answered that GOD b^d given him n muob
bigber office than ho was able to do, and
advised him to return home nnd fill it lo tbo
best of hia abiUty ! There waa aigniiioaoco
in the Will of old SxEPnEN Girahd, when
ho put in a clause declaring that no Priest c-
Minialer of the Gospel abould havo anything
to do with hia great charity fund left to tho
poor of Philadelphia; aud had tho pooplo
been aa watchful and wary of Ibis olosa of
politico! meddlers as they should have been,
wo might, at this day, boon at peace with
ourselves and all Iho world beaidJi.

Lot IhoBO clergymen now boast of what
they bovo done; tboy will never ho permit-
ted to do auolhor such on aot- It ia all
they have loft lo boast of, and wo ahoU not
deprive them of the "glory" Ihey have
abed upon Ibeir caUing. And while tbey

with tbem. Wo hope they will wear the
" wreath of glory" around tboir brows with
more meekness than they oihibilod in bring.

The New Fork Tribune True (oils

letier from St. Louis on tho JenNisos arrest.

As tho Tril/unt is chiefly responsible for all

a urdora aud robberies that evov ocour-

n Kansas ns well ns those iu Misannri,

uenCD responsible for this war, it may

be well for it to defend its partisans "hen

Itouble, but still that is no reason why

should not eiposo ili pretenlioni to pal-

riotism and lovo of the Union. For if thcrr

0 paper iu Iho United States that hai

more than nnother to bring about the

present evils, that paper h tbo JVcu York

unt, and it is folly to talk about restor,

ing peace, and bringmg back the Southern

>a into tbo Union, while anch a paper

has a leading influouce In ihe country. Its

supporters, aiders and nbettora arc at heari

full robe Uion against both tho Constitii-

•a and tho Union.

This Dr. Jessisos, n Brigadier and Col-
el in tbe pay of tho United States, is, aut]
has been for a long time, ono of tho Eansat
pets of tbe Neio York 'iVtbuit. Ho is, and
has been, for several years, in open robetlioii
against all taw. and bia orimos are enormous.
When tho war broke out ho only stepped
from his privato haunts of rebellion into tbe
United States Army with his gang of fol-
lowers. He ba.s boon in no battle, sub-
mitted to no rules of war, only so far as L(
vcd for a time under Senator General
Jui La.VI;, whose o:cploits " in the Army '
were of the same character as those of Jbs-
tJisoS- They nro worthy yoke-follows, ei

After Gen. Lanf. exploded in tbe military
line, in his couliiot with Gen. HoNTF.n, aud
then sunk back to the United States Senate,
and Gen. Dkkvf.R was sent to take charge
of thu Kansas Division, this Dr- Col. Brig.
Jkxnison felt that ho would soon be com -
periled lo show his hand and do military
duty. This of course would not suit bis

[, for JfiNSisnN to move bis regiment to

, New Meiioo to sustain Col. Sl.ouotl, who

OS in rather a tight place thero, then

Col." Jessisox saw bis lime had como to

ithot run tho risk of fighting or run (he

risk of open rebellion against the inililntj

order of bia superior officer. Ho and bis

regiment had lived one whole year at the

Government expenHo and got tbo plunder

This suited him esnctly, but not

tho order to go to New Mesico. Thnt was

long route over tho prairies, without a

hubilation, and lienoo there was nothing to

Ileal, and, even when in New Mesico, the

prospect was dull for any rich picking, and

tho chanoo of a fight decidedly probable.

This order from a superior must bo re-
sisted— it would never do to obey it — and
hence his urrcst and imprisonmant. Tho
story goes, and it is entirely probable, that
jESMtiO.I, not willing to lose his regiment,
urged his men to rebel against tho order al
so. HovT, one of his ofiiccrs joined him,
but it docs not appear that any others re-
solved to share Jeskison'S fato. As a lost
reaott, wo now arc told that both JK^<^~lSON
and HovT resigned. .Jf.hnison has been
released sincn his nrrival at tho prison i

Tho following letter cnn now bo unile:
itood. It is "pro-slavery" (o fight and
not to steal. It is •' pro-slavery " to obey
military orders. It is "pro-slavery " lo ho
LU honest man. Thia is tbo English of thia
letter, and Grbf.lgv only exposes his trait-
Drous wickedness by being iho organ and
apologist of these outlaws, murdorera
common bigbwaymoii. It is full time that
exposure was made of this imposition
n Ihe public. It hEis led to tbi
great nation and n great people. It has
.d tho misery and ruin of Kansas over
the whole land. A- nation wbo but on yes-
terday was happy ond prosperous beyond
that of any other people under tlio »un, has
been sunk to-day into Ibe depths of inontn-
iug, sorrow and woe. Is Ihoro no man loft

Mr Dear Fathek— In my lost letter,
written hurriedly, after the action of tbt
IGtb. I expressed my horroroud indiguation
at tho sight of OUT dead D3 tboy were carried
post nio into our lines, awfully convulsed
and distorted iu features nnd in body, beu
iog the marks of bayonet wonnds which c
' 'ently woro inflicted (and our surgeons say

also) US they lay wounded and dying,
dead, at the feel of their savage foe.

To-day even greater indignation and dl
gust barol felt at the sight of tho following
paragraph ;

"Mr. Morrill, of Vermont, uffced leave to

This attack is directed against one of the
best and bravest ofBcors iu tbe Army of the
Potomac— viz : General W. F. Siuilb— and
I almost regret that I volunteered my feublc
* ' - lupporl of the Northern cause, when
uo of our ublest Generals posaessing
iGdenco alike of bis military eupor-
d inferiors, thus vindictively caluoini-
thevBry fuco of the enemy. During
ion in question, I was in attendoiice
upon General Smith from seven o'clock a.
u. unlil shortly before suuset, when bo dea-
patcbcd me with a message to Major General
SlcClellou.

When Captain Motl'a battery opened fire,
ffiw momenta after 7 o'lcock A. M., uud
during the firing which was terribly SBvero
■ly half nn boor, General Smith stood
overed, at tho front of tho buttery,
ot ton fout from him, with two other
officers of bis etufi'. I saw sevcu mxn
struck by one Ehell at tbo gun immi'diately
on bis right; etitl ho never flluuhud, but
stood watching tbe effect of our firing upon
(he enemy's fort as cool and oulleuied us
^.hough bo were roviswlng a divisiun, uud nut
inlil our six pieces had succeeded in sileno
ing the rebel guns did bo maku a step to tho
rear. A fntigae party was seut to tbo front
to bury our dead, so as to give tbe guuueru
□ to work tho pieces ; and, to give you
idea liow hot Iho fira ivas, one of this

Sarty was badly wounded while engaged iu
igging a gravo fur a dead artillery luun. —
Wheu we advonced our artillery — twenty
pieces — to wiibin five hundred yards of tbe
rebel fort, the Gonorat was at tbo sido of
Captain Ayre^, tbo officer commandiug the
artillery of our division, and during (be en-
engagement iu tho afternoon the Gen-
remained under fire, although bis atuff
frequently urged bim not to ospose himself.
Not even General MaClollaQ who came oa
tbe field about noon, could induce bim to go
id you aeon the entbusiustio
features of tbe Fifth Wisconsin buys, us
tboy passed tbs General at double quick,
when ordered to tbo front — every 0110 of
bearing on his face tbe reflection of
The General's cheerful, kindly look, ns he
urged them on with n pleasant word orsmile
— you would onderstiiad whot my feelings
must be when I ace bim thus basely and po-
litioully maligned. Duringthe duy tbu Gen-
eral was twice thrown Irom bia borso. The
first tiroe — on riding rapidly to Ibefront up-
on honring Ihut tbu rebels wero' atleuiptiug
to turn ourrighl flank- his borso fell b.
long into n bugbole, throwing Geoerul Si
forward upon hia bend nnd cbesC. Tbe
ond time bo was dismounted by liia h'
rearing at Iho close report of si\teDii of
guns, fired simultaneously, cauEing tbo
girth to break, ond throwiug tho Gi '

bis back. Fuim duybrouk until nf

I offered him my flask of whisky, whii
refused, saying bo would rather have

for him trom Ihe oanteoi] uf n cavalrymao

say that each and uvery officer ueur hiu
during tbo day knows, aa I du, that ho ro
laaiued perfectly cool and collected, ourry.

was a "gentleumu eavage," who had, cai
trory to Indian nature, concluded to work
for a few days to get a dollar to eipond lor
whisky and tobacco. They wert surging
away on the wire, when a little streak of
oleotrioity comii dashing along from a point
a hondred mik'» uway, where a thunder
tttorm was raging, and quicker tlion any bot
potato was ever dropped, wos the raetnl
from the haud^of thu "baolert" who under-
stood it, oil i>.\cept Mr. Indian, who was
Buddenlv seen to ejecute a war dauoe. with
Ub eyes rolling; but he couldn't let go in
timo; the sbnck itself, of wbicb the slight
^jensalion had been a precursor, formed u
"continuity" with the "native," and sud-
denly a very Hat puir of feet were seen
pointing beaveunrard, uud the Indian sup-
posed to own them, going down iu a cres
cont-likc curve, bead first, into the crck.
For a moment bo disappeared, hut immedi-
utoly emerged, Eoramblcd up the bank, took
ono wild look behind bim, and then rail as
uo Indion ot-ur ran before, with every hair
straight up. like a porcupiae'if, so slitf you

Grasshopper Food-

Th.; Goi^rament of tho United StaU'S
lolds its sway oyer tbo people of all nations,
tribes and tongues, and aorae of those are
fltronge specimens of iho geniushomo. Tho
natives of many parts oE Africa and Asia
make fine feasts of roasted locusts; but
abcrigioea are equal to them in
that respect, the only difference being, that
oura use grasshoppers for want of loousta.
In that great country — California— there
oreatribeof IndionseoUed the "Digeers."
wbo^e gaatronomio tastes ore thus described
" tho Empifo City Argus :

" There ore districts of California, (is well
portions of the plains between tho Sierra
Nevada and tho Rocky Mountains, that
lily swarm with graesboppcrs, nad in
BOob astonishing numocrs that a man can-
not place his foot to tho ground while walk-
ig among them, without crushing great
numbers. To the Indian thoy are a delica-
cy, and are caught and cooked in tho fol-
lowing manner- A piece of ground is
songhtwbero they most abound, inthecenter
of which an oicavation Is made, largo and
doop enough to prevent the insect from

1 : — 'out when ones in. Tbo entire party

■gors,' old and young, male and fe-
male, ti&en Burroand as much of tho adjoin-
ing ground as they can, with each a green
bough in bond, whipping aud thrashing on
every Bide, gradually approach the center,
driving thoinseola before them in countless
multitudes, till nt last all, or nearly all, are
the pit. In themeantime, smaller
eicavatioDs arc loade, an^tverlog the pur-
pose of ovens, in which a Sro is made until
tho surrounding earth, for a short distnnoe,
becomes sullieiently heated, together with
a flat Gtono large enough to cover tho oven.
The grasshoppers are now taken in coarse
bags, and after being (hcroogbly eoaked in
salt water for a few moments, aro emptied
ens and closed in. Ton or filteen
offices to roust them, when thoy
out and eaten without further
preparation, and with much apparent relish,
is KometimoB the case, reduced to
powder and made into soup. And having
from curiosity tested, not of the soup, but
of tho roast; if any poraon could but divest
himself of tho idea of eating an insect as
wo do on oyster or ehrimp, without other
preparation than simple roasting, they would
net be considered very bad eating, even by
id epicurL's then tho "Digger'
ItldiaiiS.

l>cpili ofPiiiiiiine Corn-

A communioalioQ which we find in tho
ermanlown Tdfgraph gives tho following
iggostions and facts, respecting tho proper
depth for planting corn :

Cover the corn carefully, and never more
. lan from ono and a half to two inches deep,
if planted deeper than ibis, it will bo long-
coming up, and after it comes op it will
iw very well until it Is three or four
hos high, when it will remain stationary
for ten days or two weeks. By eiamiiiing
we will find that iho first Joint is below the
surface of the soil, also that tbo roots are
decaying, while new ones ute being thrown
outfcom tho joint; these new roots require
acme ten or hfteen days for their complete
formation, and daring this time the plantre-
mains stationary as far as growth is con
corned. As soon as the new roots are fully
formed the old ones will entirely disappc:
and the growth will proceed as usual.

From actual oiperiments withgrains to
en from the tame tar antl ikt lamr. part of
Ike ear. I hove arrived at tho followiog
suit : Corn planted one iocb deep came .
in eight days; that planted one and u half
inches deep repaired nine auda half day:
that tno inched deep Icu days; twoanda
half inches deep, eleven and a quarter days ;
three inches deep, twelve days; threu and
a half inches deep, thirteen days; four
inches deep, fourteen and a half days ;
and ft half inches deep, eighleen days;
inches deep, twenty one doys. The last lot
came up and grew until about three inches
high, when it remained stationary for a long
time and finally died.

Wo agree with tho Gaiette that these

have " raised now und important queatioua."
So now nnd important that th^ contest is
forced upon the people, juat as tho Domo

)uie old enemy of tho people in disguise.
They both asaume that becuuso the people
lot rise up in rebellion against tho uu-

This old doggerel of JoHs Q. Adams',
vrittenduring the contest between his father
ind Mr. Jefferson is a standing test for
tho descendants of the old Fodoralisls.

Whenever their own name becomes odious,
they resort to another, not to "alter things,"
but just to cheat justice with an alias. "A
life long Demoeral," "A Democrot of the
old school," or simply ■' Democrat," always
having reputable OBtccedents, are drawn iu
by some old Federalist or modern Republi-
whenever they want to cheat the world
behind a masked battery. Thny aro regolar
guerillua.

dem, sound poboy and peace. Hut it never did

holds, aud over baa held, that the Federal Gov-
ernment is tbe agent of Ibe people of Ihe soceral
Stales couipusing tho Uuiou; that it consists of
three distinct departmcnbj— the legislalive, the

the nnelent nod undoubled prerogative of ^eri'-

It is thia " high con Btituliooal privilege" whicli
Daniel Webster declared ho would '■ defend and
"'""■'■'e within Iha Hou,ie and out of tbo House

If over there was a tiuio when the oxlslcnco

Unqueitionably the Constitutioa givca ample

Iho solo motives of Ihojo in power were the sup-

yof the history of Iho AdmiQiatrntion for the
twelve montha post has been, nud eootiouca to he,
a hialerj- of repeated usurpatioaa of power aad
of violatiooa of the Coastitiition, and of the pub-
He and private rights of Iho cillzen. For tbo
iroot we appeal to facts too recent to need raci-
al hero, and too flagrant oad heioom for tho calm
larrativo which wo propose. Siniilor acts weru
doQo and a like poUcy pursued in tho threatened
war with France in the lime of John Adams, and
wilh Iho same ultimate purnoao. But in two or
three years Iho people forced them into an honor-
able peace with Franco, rebuked Ibe eiceasea anil
abaaea ot power, vindicated the ConHitution, and
turned over the Federal Government lo tho pria-
oi[iIe3 and policy of tbo Democratic party. To

ot proseeutinz the war to Ihe utter subjugation of

icccHful iaane, and Iho only party which has
done it without nbuae of power, wilhout molesta-
tion to tberighta of any class of ciliiens.and with
due regard to economy. All this it haadone; all
this, if need be, it is nble lo do ogain. If suc-
cess, then, in a mihiary point of riowbe required,
the Democratic party alone can command it.

To conclude: Inviting all men, without dis-
tinction of State, section or party, who are for
tho CoostitutiDa as it is nod Iho Uaion at it was,
to unite H ilh ua in Ihia great work upon terma of
perfect equality, wa insist that—

The restoration of the Unioo, whether through
peace or by war, demands the continued organi-

ition and success ot the Democratic party;

ThepreaervationotlhoConttitutionaeuiacidsit;

The maintenance of Uberty and free democrat-

al gOTcroment demands il;

Tho resloration of a round system ol internal

ilicy demands it;

Economy and honesty ia public expenditures,
. )w at Ibe rale of lour mllhona of dollars a day,
demanda it;

The rapid nccamuhilioo of an eoormoua and
pcrmaaeDt public debt demooda it — a pabLc debt
already one thousand millions ot iJolJan, aad
equal at tbo present rale, in three years, to Eog-
land'e debt ot a ceolurr and a half io growth ;

Thehavy laxalion, direct and iodirect, State
and Fedcroi. already more than two hundred
liUiona of doUars a year, eating out the subritaacA

decay ot business, ecarcily ot work, impeadiDg
~ in on every aide, demand it;

And. finally, the reitomtion ol the concord,

mands that the Democralic party shall bo tnaio-

A Uioister of Iho present Ualtcd Statea Gov-
eromeat wiU, no doubt, be glad of this approba-
batioo, but ho may think the exultation of tbe
eociety a little ill-Umed, and ita counseU some-
what intrusive. The answer of Mr Adama is
fornal cnnngb, as bcfib tho represeatativo of a
country which knows seriously and praotieally
the queatiaoa which these EogUsbmeD oaly study
aa amateurs. Mr. Lincoln's representative is, no
doubt, attached to bis principles and his party.
These bring him very near to the opieiona of our
Anti-Slavery Society, and bia views may bo gene-
rally taken to bo the aamo oa those of the depn-
tation which addressed him. But tbe most rcck-
lesa asaeryon of general principles might bo ao-
burcd by tho events ivhich havo taken placo since
tbe Republicans gained thcir-grent victory over
the South. The management uf tho alavety
question in America requirea hardly lesa skill and
courage than (he managcmcn( ol the war. The
election ot Mr. Lincoln cauaed a third of the
States o[ tha Union to accede, and aover^ more
to halt irresolutely between seceaaion and their
uld alleginuce. Such has been the elTect of au

the American Minister in London haa been grali-
ted by an addn« from a depulot.on uf the nieni-

oign Ana-Slavery Society. In Ibo misfortunM
which have fallsn on his country Mr. Ada^=
must havo received much eomlurt from tbe ap-

>y the volts of their rep reeen hi fives The prop-
ijition (u ossfst the bordor Statea in (beir volun-
tary nttempta to aboliab slavery met with a strong
uppusiliun from tbnt section of membera who are
returned by tbose Stales. The diflicuttiea and
' ]gere of tha timo have made even the Presi-
it conservativo. Mr. Lincoln lakes his stand
Ihe Constitution, and would, doubtless, baa*
willing aa any one lo maho tbe largest concea-
-■--- to tbo SouthomerB 'if they wonld relum to

dread must, is, that the continued obstinacy ol
the Confederates, ood the eotoreed inactivity of
tho Federal armies, through tho difficalliea of tho
country, may cause auch ao outcry at the North
aa will oblige tho Government to use alrong meas-
ures toward those portions of the slave territory
which nra in ita power. To havo full hborty tu

question ; to bo able cither to receive the Confed-
erates with opea arms aa penitents, or lo punish
Ibem with severity as rebeta, according to tbe
temper wbicb they may diaplay, is thetieaiteof
the Notthem politiciana, and Mr. Adams indicates
it cleariy enough. But sncb is not Ihe notion ol
the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Sucietj'. To
these philanlhropiala the negro is everytbing.
Whether the 37.00U,000 of Americana remain
one nation or split into two, is only interesting to
them BU far as it affects tho lortunes of tbe race
tbey protect. For the ofl'orta of Mr. Lincoln in
favor of the blacka Iho Siciely applauds bis Gov-
ernment; but they hardly care lo Ihink that Ihe
fitat object be has in view is the greatneaa of a
country of white citiiena. and that even abolitlou
ia with him a le^ important question than national
exiatence. There may bo a general ngreement
between the liepubliciui Govemiuent and our So-

Our paper this week will require ou atten-
tive reading. It is full ot mailer both sag
gostivo and contewplalive. Tho speech of
Mr. CitiTTENCEMoa the abolition of skvp-
ry cannot fail to find numerous and atten-
tive rcailers. It must be borne in mind thai
Mr, Critteki'ES never belonged lo what
has been known in our American politics as
radicals in constitutional construclienB. Ho
was not of tho school of politicians even
tbal sustained General Jackson In his con-
stitutional objections to Internal Improve-
ments, Bankt. Tariffs, ^c. ^r,

This defender of the Conslitulion is tberc-
foro not of tho radical but of tUo couacrva-
tivo school of politioions. Tho radical or
old Domocralio school went much further
in their Ktrict coDstruclions and States
Rights doctrine, than the party lo which
Mr. CiilTTBNiiEfi has been etiacbed duriug
his life. What then must be the arbitrary
and high handed nets of the party in power
which has led even Mr. Crittesdf.N to
make sach n speech? Iris usurpation-
nothing hut 11 usorpalion of powers that has
led to this speech.

For Ibreo qoarters of o century have wo
lived, grown, prospered, yet Congress, in
all that lime never ventured upon tho meas-
ure ot abolishing slavery ■' where itoxialcd"
until their recent act. It is o fearful no-
dortaking at this moment in our bislory.—
ItstatopB th" Republicon party nilh par-

poses tittle short of treason and a desire for
Quiversal anarchy. Such men as Suella-
BARQER and BiNiinAu. abolitionists of Ohio,
and LoVEJOY, abolitionist of Iliinois. would
have shown their sense bad they not thrust
(heir negro snouts into tho debate di
Mr. C.'s speech.

as lo suppose that Iho pcopio will suffej
thomaolves to bo tased to go into the regu-
lar negro trnde. We verily believe if Con-
gress goes on with this monstrous iniquity
ot taiingthu people to buy those negro ei
that the people will sell* them as (/loir/iro/
rrl!f, and sell them again into slavery lo get
their money back. If they are bound to

d hence the right of properly is in them,

We never saw such intense feeling
beforo amoLg our people as nowoiists upon
this free negro subject.

ir readers will find also in tbe inaide
form a algaificont complimentary corres-
pondence between tho English nholitioniala
and Lincoln's minister to that country —
Ir. Adams, son of Joun Quincv Adams,
ho kindled tbe abolition fire in Congress,
ad grand son of old John Adams, de-
feated by Jepfereon for his attempt to es-
tablish a limited British monarchy.

t is a remarkable fact in the history of
country, and coversthe whole, that when-
ever tbeao Adamses liavo come into tho
ittnagement of pubUo affairs, at once there
ere schemes sot on foot to fritter away our
Con stitnti on ol rights, and inaugurate u strong
monarohial governmental machinery- Old
John was defeated by Jeffersou ou this
very groond, and young Jons was defeated
by Gen. Jackson for the samo reasons,
we have Joii.v the III al the Court of
England, receiving the treasonable compli-
ments of tbe originators of our calamities.
tbe Eoglish tones smell tho Uno of
deaoont from tho old to tho youug. Had
President Lincoln any regard for his rail
splitting origin, ho would send at once for
tbe return of this sprig of abolition (reason
against our government. But as be is like
vast majority of his appointments, wo need
not espect oven a rebuke. Mr. Lincoln's
recent conduct is fast losing him every con-
Bcrvativo friend hohad. Itisnow generally
believed that in tbe end he will show as
bold and reckleas a face ou tho negro ques-
a as any of the abolitionists. Many of
recent act^ look in that direction and no

A Part's letter, which we copy from the

mond and is beyond Williamsburgh. The

was a sharp brush at Williamsburgh and
good many were hilled and wounded <
both sides.

Norfolk is siirrendered to tho Federal
forces without a coulcst, and tho AIi

burnt the Navy Yard and the vessels
Very little property oppears to have been
loft, which could bo carried off or destroyed.
Gen. Wool promised the ciliiens full pro-
lection in life and property and quiot was
soon restored. This is as it should be. if
wo eipoct to be one people again.

Gon. M'DoWELL is still at Fredericksburg,
and Gen. Banks near Stanton. Tho sooner
these forces ore brought a little nearer to
each other tho hotter, wo should think.

New Orleans is in quiet possession of our
forces and tbe batteries and forts on tbe
lower Mississippi abandoned. Baton Rougo
is also said to bo in our possession. But
onr fleet at Fort Pillow is still held at boy.
though somo signal advantages have been
obtained over tbo Confederate boats ou tho
liTer.

Colonels Slough and Caklv have united
tbeir forces in New Mciicoand are sufficient-
ly strong to hold that country for tbo pres-
ent. Col. Slouoh has won a Rrigndiorsbip
far beyond somo that have been promoted.
Col. Slouqii is a fighting man, as was
proven in our Legiaiaturo here a few years
since, Ho was then cipelled for whipping
an Abolitionist on the floor of the House.

Tho great oniioty is, about General Hal-
LECE and BeaoheQ'UID at Corinth. It is
now pretty well ascertained that a pitched
batllo is tn come off there. If so, it cannot
be long before it happens. Gen. PorE came
near stirring it up at Furmington. six miles
from Corinth, on Saturday. Twenty thou-
sand on n side and after five houru a drawn
battle. is no very small affair. Skirmishes and
side fights are going on in various parts dal-
ly, hut they decide very little, though they
aro tho onuso of a great many deaths.

The loss of life and property is fearful,
and growing worse instead of better. From
New Orleans to Memphis, and up tho navig-
able streams, there was ono continuous
bla^e of fire, from Iho burning cotton, while
shiploads of hogsheads of sugar and molas
thrown into tho rivers. It would
hardly boauover-eslimalo to say that in Iho
last three weeks there has been one hundred
s of property destroyed in various
while tho lives of ' out people are
scarcely considered of sufUo lent importance
to require a paragraph in the uewspapere.
In truth, this part of the story is rather
kept hid from public view, to prevent clamor

d a public outcry.

A week ago the popers in tbe service of
tbe Republican party, gave signs that this
id carnage mi|>ht eoou cease, and
propositions of poace might bo hoped for,
but to-day thoy abandon oil that vlow of
the subject, and the cry is "still to Iho con-
flict,"

ivo rumors from Washington that
the highest in authority declare Ibot they
have no plans of the future, and know no
V about the end of our troubles than any
else. Wo have had our fears that this
the state of affairs at headquarters.
Wo had our fears from the first that we
plunging into trouble without a defined
objectin the out-come. This may account
for the failure to ever give us a Proclama-
tion selling forth the purposes of tho war.
slearly defiuing tho programme of tho
paigus. Thoy bad uo idea of their own,
and heuco none to give tho country.

I therefore as much in the dark to-
day, us we were a year ago when tho first

ilalmont of soldiers were called for — and

>ro so, for then some people thought Ihoy
knew all about il.

We again ask, and ask it in all candor,
what do our victories profit us if our Gov-
ernment has uo defiucd purposes, so as to
thorn to the end of a restoration of tho
Government and a return of peace ? We
have had victories enough to justify a mag-
imity on ourpait lo make a proposition
for a cessation ol hostilities. If perchance
ever so small, should bo our mis-
fortune, whal then 1 Will thoy not be used
good ground for prolonging tho slrife
anolberyear? Doournuthorilies nolthink
of these things 1 Do they not know that
thero muit bo a leriible rebound of public
opinion if these victories are not turned to
good account.

Wo bavo other troubles brooding over us
besides those growing out of the Southern
rebellion. Thoy must not ho lost sight of.
And every man in his Bcnses knows Ihat if
this negro confiscation becomes Iho settled
policy of the party in power, as wo arc as-
sured it will be. that all the work has got to
bo gone ofer again in Missouri and Ken-
tucky. This will drag with it troubles in
Iho fre« border States, Every good citlaen
fhould labnr to ovoid Ihii, and every honast

roan should warn those In aalhority in due

season. Not in tho spirit of threals, but in
the spirit of wurniug and advice, so that so
fearfol and fatal an end may bo avoided in

Wo have spoken freely ou these topics
from first lo last. Wo did so because we
loved our country and desired its pence.
Wo saw, or thought wo saw, from the first,
the blunders thai would bo committed by
both North and South. Wo have been mis-
taken ia no single instance of any import-
oooe. Wo now, in the somo spirit of can-
dor and devotion to our country and all ilG
inhabitants, again raise our voice against
plunging into further nod now perplesities
more dangerous than tho first.

Wo sboDld not forget that there aro fools
al! over the land, who, for tho want of H'
and some honesty, would run headloug
now troubles, simply because they ca:
lell how to avoid them. They are the
who throw dry wood on tbo firo to put it

at this time.

At tho April term ot tbo United Stntos
Cironit Court &f ]8G1, Judpe Leavitt, in his
obargo lo the Grnnii Jury, said :

"fnill non briery CdU llio oltention of
Iho Grand Jary to tho Becood part of tho
definition of treason, inoluded in the irords,

io any eilcnt, in tho in?PBtigalion of this
subject. I rnn not nwaro that io any of tho
proseoutions for treiison in tbia country, the
itorda under consideration have received on
Qulhoritativo eonsttuction. Tho words 'ad-
hering to their enemies, giving tbem aid and
oomforl,' leavB no room lo doubt that trea-
son may bo oooiniitted by other means than
lovyioy war."

The Court then proceeds to stnte that the
□(tcraaco of dislojul sentiments ia not trea-
son, but ia specifying Ihct numerous acts
fairly within tlioHcope of the words "giting
aid ami comfort to the enemy." the Court
continues .'

"To fumisli nrms or mnnilions of w
or to provide boat?, vessok, railroad cb
or other means of transport alion for th<
arrayed in hostile opposition lotbo Govei
nent. with a knowledge of the purpose for
which thuy are to be used, are unquestion-
ably acts involving the orimo of treason,

If the seller knows that tho property is to
be used for the army in a State or ptnco in
the possession of tho enemy, bet herooy does
give aid and eomforf to the enemy, and is
within ttie penalty of tho law."

AttLcOolober Term Judge Lcavitt re-
aSroicd what bad been stated at tbo April
Term, aud directed tho Grand Jury to tho
charge given at that time, and added, on the
longuBg" "adhering lo trcasen,"' ft:o,, the
Court EOid : "This langoage leaves no room
to doubt that treason may bo predicated of
ucls, which ore not a direct levyinf- of war
nccerdingtoIhecoQStrucUouof ihatphraso."
* " ' "To sell to, or provide arms or
munitions of war, or military stores or sup-
plies, inclading food, clothing, tie., for tbo
use of the enemy, is within tho penalty of
Ibe statute lu showing an adherence to the
enemy, ond an anlawfol purpose of fiiviog
him aid and comfort."

Upon the charge of tho Court at tbo April
Term, James W. Chenowolh was indicted
for treason by tho Grand Jury, in giving
aid aud comlorl lo the enemy, ^c, and
upon tho same grounds indictments wore
found against Thomas B. Lincoln ond Jno.
A. Skifi, charged with similar offenses. At
Iho preseut term of tho Circuit Court, Jus-
tice Swayne and Judge Leavitt ou the
Bench, a motion was made by Hon. George
E, Pugb, in an able argument, to quuah the
indictment, upon the ground that the first
dauEO of Section y. Art. 0, of tho Consli-
talion, which provides that -Treason against
the United States shall consist only in levy-
ing war against them," refers to rebel-
lion, while Iho second clause, " or in adher-
ing to Ibeir euciiiic<, in giving them aid and
comfort," relotes to a public war with a
foreign enemy. The learned counsel cited
to numerous authorities iu support of bis
proposition. The Court took the motion
under advisement, and yesterday morniug
Joslico Swayue delivered the following com-
plete and vary able opinion ;
CIRCUIT COIIHT OF TIIK U.VITED STATES,

The United SlalM vs. James W. Che

—Indicfmnt for Trtaion — Hloti

Quash the Indictment.
Swathe, Justice:

Tho Indictment contains two count
they nio identical, as regards the q,
now to bo decided, tho first count only will
be particularly adverted to.

That count charges, substantially, tht
there is in progress hq insDrreclion and wi
agaiust tho Government of the United
State?, by persona styling themselves
Confedorato States of America ;" that tho
Weodant. residing within, nnd owing
trance lo the United States, well knowing
the promises, but not regarding Ihe duty of
Ilia allegiauco, nud conspiring and Intending
toaidand ussist tho persons styling ihem
selves oa aforesaid, during aaidinsurrectiot
Md war, to wit; on the aOth day of June,
lotil, and on divers other days, before aud
after that day, at Iho city of Cincinnati, in
the Southern District of Ohio, did traitor-
ously adhere to tho persons styling them-
folves as aforesaid— then and yot being cne
mioa of Ibe United States ; and that in tbo
proaeoution of bis traitorous adhering afore-
said, ho did procure certain supplies and

to thD persons stjlinK themselves as aforo-
«*■•! said supplies and mnni.ions of w«r;
^0 that, in further prosecution of hia trait-
'OUB adhering aforesaid, he did, on Ibe
«ye and al tho places aforesaid, deliver to
H"srud persons stjUug themsolveB as ofore-
«'d Ihe said suppfles Snd munitions of war,
or the aid, comfort and use of said persons

anco to tbo United States of America shall
levy WW against them, oit shall adhere lo
their enemies, giving to them aid and com-
fort, within tbo United SUtcs or elsewhere,
ond shall be thereof convicted," A:o., they
'■ ihall suffer death,"

This iudiotmcnt is framed under the
second provision of this secliou of thu stat-
ute. That provision relates exclusively to
adhering to the enemies of Iho United
Slates, and ghin(t them nid and comfort.
Tho prior provision relates lo levying war
against the United States. It baa no con-
nection with tho queslion involved in this
motion, and need not be further adverted to.
_ Tho second provision is n literal tronslii-
tion — mutatit mutandis — from tho Norman-
French, of tbo provision upon tho same
subject in the English statute, of tho SSth
Edward tbo Third : ['• On soil adherent n!
enemies uostre. signiour le roy, a renx a euj
donant aid ct comfort en sou roialme ai

In support of the motion tu quash, it U
claimed that tbo provision in tbo Eng'
lish statute, corresponding to the provision
■ our statute, upon which this indictment
founded, has always been held by tho
English courts to apply only to those who
adhere and give oid and comfort to foreign
and that it has uo application to
those who commit the like acta inTespeot of
domestic traitors, engaged in insurrection
or rebellion against their own Gqvernment.

The following authorities aro relied upon
in support of this proposition; 3 Coko's
Inst.. 11 ; I Bale's P. C..;529; Foster's C,
L„ ch. 333, see- 12 ; 2 Chitty, Cr. L.. C2 ;
4. Bl. Com.,C2; l! Dane's Ab., 607.

We have carefully examined these au-
thorities. They sustain fully the proposi-
tion they have been cited to support.

It is further claimed by the counsel for
tho defendant that this provision of the
English atalutfl having been thus adopted,
it must ho held that tho construction given
to it by the English Courts prior lo its adop-
tion, wna adopted with U.

The ptinoipio which underlies Ihis propo-

tion is so well settled as hardly to require
the support of argument or authority.

In Hillhouae w. Cheater, 3 Day, 211. the
Court say ;

"It is a sound rule that ivhenover our
Legislature use a term without defining it—
which ia well known in the English faw—
md there has a definite, appropriate meon-
Qg attached to it, they must bo supposi'd
;o use it in tbo sense in which it is under
stood in the Eeglish law."

This is in accordance with oil the authori-
:ics upon tho subject.

The authorities which estnhliahod tho con-
slruclion contended for by the defcudant's
counsel, also lay down tho proposition that
*'"" same facts which mato a ca=o within
statute of adhering and giving aid and
ifort to foreign tnemies, when done in
respect of insurgents and rebels, make the
offender gailly of tho crime of levying war
against tne Government, and liable to be
punished under the other provision of Ihe
statute for that offense. {IS Bl. Com. C2.)

The queslion presented by this motion
permits of no doubt as to its proper solu-

Korfolk in Possession of ifac Fed-
eral Troops.

in ono way. There ia but ono chance loft, and
thol will be for tbe people ol tho West to man-

must transfer tbc workshops ol Ihe Uaat lo our

nnd pairiolisui to buy nothing from the Eailern

got but to aill ic nnd it will soon be accompliabed.
The cotton trade is post fur tho preaent Tbo

cotton planters, those whn atill have their slaves,
have turaed them to roieing bread aad meal, nnd
hence there will hu no crop this year sufficieat lo
anpply the trade a month.

Wo arc tberefofo driven back to tho old doye

Whenovnr onytUDfi turoi up in the nay
of epeouhtions, the Yankees hftvo u spawn
ready to iialier into tbe now Eldorado. Tbey
inado Kansas a bedlam. oo-I reodered that
beautiful oouutry a oharnel-honao of de-
pendants ou obnrily. TLiiy heard of cot-
tOD fields and negroes nt Port Royal, and
hitlior went a drove of tbeao bumanitarion
oruflftders. Tliey bled lUo Goverument—
ihey bled the fanaUcs, and struck bunds and
lip a with negroes.

We have published several occouuts from
.;aHlom papers, givlDe °- >**"">■ gmi'l^io ^o-
eoription of tho way tbeso Now England
guardians of negro morals nudpiotymonago.
We now copy from tho Boston Couritr, fur
wo must uot forgot thoto is a minority of
sound mm of common seuso loft, even in
Yankee land.

Weato k'd to usk Iho (lueatiou, whether
the people of New England, when sending
off these pious ciueadors, do notGoloctthe
worst epooiniens of their race to get rid of
them t Wo have good reasons fo
tJiiB queetiou, for wo nre loth lo holiovo that
they are fair apceiinensof any portion of
our country, or (bat of any other, boasting
of oivilizfttion and "common'' schools,
Tho Hchoola must be very common to tarn
out auch 0 race of men and women as have
boon described in these letters from Port
Royal.

What our Govorumeut uuans by gottiug
its 6ngor3 burnt iu such nil espeditiou, nnd
its honor tarnished by being tbe patrons of
swch insane proceodiugi, is ii mystery to all
well-wiflhors of tUo country. Our people
ice not well satisfied with being made to
pay taies for such cipenditurcs of
tho public money. Hony u poor white fam-
ily now goes to bed at uight without
tea, coffee and sugar because of tho tases
put upon these articles to raise money
feed a set of fanatical Yankees to teach tbe
oegToes laKinosB and worthlcssness,
to feed them ut tbo public orib because they
are good for nothing but to eat the soldiers'

To got rid of this error, Iho Government
■juay plunge into a still more fntal one — that
of DTming these negroes, who refuse to work,
and tbiU tbom into the army as eoldiora,
toith fioidiors' pay and soldiers' olothos.
This will be a worse failure than the first,
as timo is sure to prove. G'.u. Hu:
jnilitnry talents are uol I'ljual to drilling
suoli (1 soldiery. Ilo will want at leoat ns
many whilo soldiers lo keep the black ones
in order, and thus double the oumber and
reduce (iie oflioioncy.

This 'terter writer intimates that what h
already going on there will cause tbo white
mos in the army to quit, and givo up suoh
■eoldiering. When tliey ijuit, the negro will
not supply his place. The Govornment has
i^oufiscoted a daugeroua element — one that
will trouble tbe confiscalon more than any
ono else, and the soouer they abandon tho
litopiun idea tho better. We bavo enough
of tllBtucbiog elements on bund already, and
it ia tho heigbtb of madness lo toko auy
more on hand at present, if we are In ear-
neat in desiring peace and the re-establish-
mont of order and good government. Wt
ore pressing the matter too far. and it will
burst iu our hands if not abandoned in duo

at its word, that war was proclaimed fur
other purpose than to sustaiu the Union of
the States, and to preserve the "he-st
ernment tho world ever saw," wo all hi
deeply interested in having tho war, when
put on foot, conducted eo as to prodi
ids proposed. Those who believed that
ir would bo uur ruin, and its end the dos-
truotion of the Government, felt a no less
lively interest, when it wos precipitated up-
on tho country, that it should be so con-
ducted as to leave the least difficulty in the
wuy of a finul adjuatmcnt, ond thus uvor-
como in tho end, with the leaat cost of treas-
ure and life : the two diffioulties, the seces-
sion of a portion of tho States, und the ef-
fects of Iho war inaug'jralcd to put it down.
To " diaperao armed rebollion" was one
thing, but to conquer and subjugate u peo-
ple whom it was the object of tbo war to bring
back into a republican fold of barmouiouii
States, wna quite another thing. Yet thia
latter object was tbo proclaimed purpose of
tho Government, and war never was sanc-
tioned by the people of the North with auy
other view. So salislied was tbe Govern-
ment of this fcoling in the North, that Con-
gress, at its extra seasion, avowed, by joint
resolution, that this was its only purpose in
raising armies aud spending tho people's
treasure. To this end ne yielded, and for

Marshall Sifford called to bif nssi^^lance two

Ibat a holler had heen jnocuTtd for the pur-

concluded to shoot them. Barber and Kenick

slTippat off Barber's ueeteoal, dress coat,

tbia condition they seized him, and by faree
put hi'n on his knees. A file of tbreo or

as nbove related, " that it is a foithful nar-
rative i)f what the lestiuony disclosed on

iu tho slightest degree, tended to contradict

This ia a plain unvnrniabod talc— ond it
is enough to moke our hair stand on ei '
Itisnn Aboliliou account of an Abolitl..
mob and eonscqucnl Abolition trial before
an Abolition jury with an Abolition proai
outor. and pablished in nu Abolition pane .
tbc Morning Ltflffer— there con. therefore,
be no room lor suppoaod eiaggeration. And
what a picturo of poor human natuio ia
htro exhibited] Hove Abolition priests be-
come devils? jVnd tbcn to /«lur<: a man
on tho mildness of his treatment — congratu-
lating them on their good fortune in thUing
into the hands of the better purJion of
community, after ^chipping then almost lo
death-' ! Such aotsof cold-blooded villainy
make me nimpst ashamed to he a man!
••Oh! judgment, thou ort fled to brutiab
beosts and men have lost their reason."

Heaven and earth '. have I studied human
nature so many years lo find men fiends ot
last ? To find thom worse than divils f for
devils make no hypocritical pretentions to
mildness bhA forbearance — Ihey torture, ac-
knowledging ihemselves to be devils — laying
no claim lo be the 6c»^r portion of society.
If there be any worse dovila than tho priest
George Gordon nnd nis jVcro aaaoeialos, tho
annals of crime bave passed them by
'looniy silence. And this is tho mau i
'resident has thought worthy of eieculivo
olemcnoy !

Alter Barber and Renick bad bad thoii
feelings borrowed with the most iieiidiaL
molignity, and hod all but euScred two i
eral dcatbs — first by tho threat and prepi
lion to hang them — ibe tree selected
the lialtar ready — with n malignity that
devils only con inspire, they prolong the
by resolving to shoot tlum. They
then faced thom outwards — forced thom to
kneel and stationed their gang of iiiutdcrera
who cocked their guns and look aim, while
Barber and Renick were ospecting every
moment lo bo their lost. Rut fiendish mat-
ignily was not yet glutted— ibe torture had
notyot been sutHoiently drawn out — tlioop-
polito of Ibis bloodyminded mob was not yet
gorged. Our pious prieil must witness a
third and crowuing nut of murderous bru-
tality— be must feast bis eyes as two men
pulled each of bis nrms to their full extent
' '' I two negroes, "onea very targe atlUc-
an " proceeded to lash Barber " in the
brutal manner," until Ibe whips were
up, and tlie colored men eirliausted nnd
Barber, lacerated and bleeding, more dead
than nhvc, having been stripped to bis
under shirt, with gashes on "inch and a
half in length." While thus coveted with
blood nnd sufiering everything but death,
this infernal priest says, "they have not got
enough yet," and himself turnishing the
negro with a new whip, ordered him lo "giee
them some more," when " taelve or fifteen
Hows wero icell laid on" in addition. It is
o wonder poor Barber hod not died under
tbo torture. But onr pottern priest, who
afterwords received so much sympathy from
Oberlin, nnd finally the President's pordon,
wus not even yet satisfied — ho must add in-
sult to injury — tbo beads of Barber aud
Renick must bo shaved, and in tbis they
" mode thorough work." Ho then adminis-
tered an obligation " nCDcr again to role the
democratic ticket," and, to crown his fiendish
catalogue " lectured tlum." "and assured
them they hod Xieeti fortunate in falling into
Ihohandaof tite better portion of eommuniti/,"
but took no core to see the money resto/ed.
Tho robbery was merely a by-game.

There uru no worda in the English lun-
guoge of HufHoicot import ond compass 10
express tbo deep damoution of this infernal-
ly atrocious aooumulatiou of crime nud
multiplied villiooy. An ordinary matder
would bo, in compariion, but a venial of-
fense, for murderers do not seek to prolong
Iho sufferings and torture of their * "
And this pious aoul — this eicmpla
tionist is in doubt whether he con
tntUj accept tbo President's pardon as he has

fenae — for ho bad neither nrredted or mul
esled nny one.

While he (Gordon) wea Buffering. I might
better hove said enjoying hja impriaonment,
tbe people of Oberlin. that putrid ulcer on the
body politic, held symputhizing meetings on
his account — passed condoling resololiona —
raised money for his more comforlablo
prison enjoyment, and sent bim many nice
presents in the way of clothing onJ pro-
visions, thowing tbeir fullest sympathy in
hie crimes.

This outrage, in its chornoter is eminent-
ly priestly. Nearly avory Abolition riot
has been led on by one or more prieets.-
The Oberlin resooo case bad a largo eprink
ling of tbe priestly biotbcrhood. The uu
Bucoessful mob nt Alliance ,waa he^ed 1 y
priest who whs enercised with great wrath
because he failed to cause bloodshed.

Our sonctimonious priesthood had best
beicarehat Ihey heat a furnace eo hot
scorch themselves. Even-handed ji
may yet commend tho poisoned chali
Iheir own lips, and tho fate of tho priests of
revolutionary France may yot be ineirs.

So odious did the prieathood then become
that to bo n priest, was in itself u su&ioient
warrant tor execution. We ato ourselves
now in revolutionary times, aud before all
over, the public mind may become as phrci
ziod as tbo priesthood boa become corrupt
and fanotical. It will bo betl

'hose hatred of superstition in itsolf impel-

tho signal for tho loassncro. From cloister

displayed agaiost yon by tho
government orgaus here, and beeougo I felt
'^0 that some day the people of tho Amer-
n States would find themselves compelled
eay to the Atliea — " Take your forces
from this continent. Wo cannot and will
iuffor European intervention here." I
fear my conclusion was loo just a one. —
'"ben you have done with tho rebels you

II have, no doubt, to turn your attontion

0 itUI then havo taken foiolblo possession

of that ropublio.

aha will attempt to conquer nnd hold Moii-

' ' ve been ao fortunate as to obtain

nd authentic information upon the

Interventiou, and nill give you the

details. You may rest assured they are

oorreot.

Tbo idea originated with the Emperor
Nopoiean. nnd was suggested to him by the
San Domingo nffuir- Uy his advice and en-
couragement, nnd through strong promises
of great increase of potror to ODorno, Spain
induced to not at ouoo in tbo iMexicau
ess. SliO was assured tho kernels
would oil be for her, tho glory for Franco
id tho ehoUs for England. In faot, she
la to conquer, aided by Franco nod Eog-
ud, hor former American poaaoasloiis. —
Spain, dazzled at this bright prospect, at
^e plunged into tho matter. She was to
d n largo number of troops — say half of
invading force — Frauce tho rest, and
England, tough old John Bull, would pro-
vide the ships to carry almost all. It uot all,
the expedition. Lager to act, Spain said
she had ships enough of her own, and at
unco fiho started off Lev sivacthy battalioua.
England, warned by former proceedings,
turned a denf car to Napoleon's request as
to providing transports for his troops, nod
here Napoleon foundhimself obliged to give
way. Ho wria thus forced to use his oivn
ships and incur nn eipense ho had fully de-
termined to avoid. Launched in this affair.
Id not withdraw; so, as England sout
soldiers, he was obliged tosend thou-
sands! Ihe more so as bo had all along de-
termined to make a uatspaiv of Spain.
This soou became evideut to Spain, and
w she is avorao to the expedition: uu-
dcratauds sbo has been duped; that Napo-
leon never would lei her have anything
u Meiioo. Prim saw this— heuco ho sign-
>d the Soledai) convention. Tho English
I^ommia lienor kneiv this — hence he signed ;
lud Admiral do la Graviera put his foot in
.t when be signed the said oonvcntiou. Tho
fact is. the Admiral was not au/att with the
ideas of Napoleon. Ho (tho Admiral) ivas
lo mnko tho beginning all smooth, and iben
deeper heads were to outuit the representa
tivea of Spain nnd England. It never waa
for a moment supposed here that Spain would
go against hor instructions ; that she
would so soon awaki.-ato tho cheat that was
being put upon her. Tbo Admiral blun-
dered. He has been superseded, and
Ftnuou will now not alone in tbe matter,
unless she can scare Spain into joining hor.
England will not. Tho Emperor cuu noi
mithdraiv from tbut fatal expedition noiv,
even if ho wished it ever so much. It
would be a a miserable failure, and bo enn
not, must not. fail now.

Ue will spend money nnd men to any ex-
tent. Ho must succeed in that costly cs-
perlcnent. The untion must seo thnt for
the niilliuns expended thero will bo tiomo

do not overrate the importance of the Alex-
ican expedition. Vou will ere long be ob-

9i>ii tbnt wn calUd so lustily upon ttiU old
ocganiiatioQ, in the AdUrosa wo issued tu the
Demoiiracy of Ohio oa the 3d of January,
I6CI, (o stand together, as we believed the
0»il day of our Republic of States iraa upon
us, and that the only hoi'f wo had left w(
on loo etern virtue, inlelligenoo and state!
cmaship of this old parly. All others bo
failed of preserving Ml organisation, and the
aovr one just coming into power, undi^r the
i^uUe of the BepubliCBQ party, was not only
gectioDul, but revolutionary in itself, am
contained olementa wholly uncontroliabl
for any good purposes wljntovor.

It is for these same reasons wo still cling
with unalterable Lope — for whnt hope there
ia left of our bleeding, lorn and distracted
cyuntry. One year of trial of the Chicago
Platform ami the Ropublioan party in power,
liao not changed an iota of our unfavorablo
opinion oF it for any good to constitutional
lilorty. It has bad men, democratic moo
and money without limit at its command ;
it baa bad full and unbridled swaj in all the
Departments of the Government; it Lag
token to itself nil tbe ciril offioea ut home
3ud abroad, and Hiisumed to itself tbe higher
prerogative of dcoidmg rr parlt on every
man'd loyalty, and tho ppuple have ^ubmit-
tod to all its requirements, e^en to the pris-
on walls, to moba uf Ropublioan Wide

sal (0 permit its old political opponents, in
many instances, the ordinary privileges of
tlie mails; nr Ih" freedom of tbe press, of
speech, or of any other freedom but that
of walking to the cannon's mouth, anil ofiur-
ing their livos a eacrifice to the conlcndiug
seotionul factiooa. Many a Democrat from
being di=uiissed from souu petty office, un-
der the charge of disloyally, alionldored his
gun and nent to the battle field, and died,
braving (be storm which ho bad no purt
in gcttiug up, hut against which ho labored
in season and out of reason to put off, and
proveot, if possible, from overtaking tbe
country.

The question now recurs: Shall this party
bu abandoned ? Can the country nlFord to
abandon It? Is thore any other to lake lis
place! It has shown not only its patriot-
ism by filling up the regiments for this Ke-
poblican party to try its statesmanship, but
it has Buhmittcd in all humiliation to the
insolcnco and insults of its political oppu'
n<>at9 0 very where, and yet tbo country i°
not saved nod at peace. The Conslilutioo,
our otily hope and safeguard. Las been con-
temptuously cast aside, oud trampled upon:
our lairs Lave been too often made tu yield
to parly spleen and political maUce ;
money bos been stolen and squandered
hair-broiued political favorites, and a change
in the political councils of the nation has
hccomo too apparently Dcceasary to n
argument to satisfy thu most supcrfioial

This is where we stand to-day. and wu

tor wo omit the interested place-boldcre, if
itianol evident [hat bolter couuoils must
prevail, and that toon, if we over eipect to

aore than political Bormons from thu pulpit

of a republican form of governmout than
have been oihibited in tbo recent past, to

Wo published lost week an Address signed
^J a number of Democratic CoDgroasmon,
headed by that old veteran DiCK IilutiARi>'
-iOK, of Illiaoia. We regretted, and wo re-
S"tyet, that every Democrat in Congres!
hud not put bianamo to it, and every man
in Congress who did not, and does not non
ippro

the present Administration. It was a mere
deelaralion of principloM — it was merely fol-
■ iwiog in the wako of that public seulimont
hich is being m extensively aroused among
the people ovorywheri;. The pooplo have
been entirely diead of the politicians. They
do up their minds— thoy bad resolv-
ed on clean work — it was a matter of life or
death to them, and thoy wero rapidly leav-
iac; the plodding and plotting politicians to
lake care of themsolvos as beat they eouid.
As Col. RicnARDSOK woU eaid in the Con-
rvalive meeting, he was hut following the
ill and wishes of bis constituents. Every
an whose name stands attached to that
ddresa may iv ell and trulj* say tho same
ing. It was no act of dictation on their
part, but being together at tbo seat of Gov-
ritnessiog with their own eyes,
and hearing with Ihejr own ears, what tho
people had learned at homo, this Addrest
but indorses the peoples' action, is but
high toatiniooy to tbe fact that they were
;ht. and but a "God speed" to them in
) good work they were inaugurating nl
home, upon their farms nod in their ivork-
shops. It was this, and nothing more. Il
was words of encouragement— tho flag of
hope held out to tlto coming armies of men,
othing iu their commissary depart
ments but the peaceful ballots of freemen,
and tba great work of saving a fallen coun-
try in their bearta of devotion.

We ihereforo regret — most aincerely re-
gret— to ace another organization folio ir this
Democratic Address, at Washington, called
a Conservative ocgauiaatioa, tending to lead
off, distract nnd tomporizo uuolber yeur of
politics. This has been tried, and ro-tried
until things have grown worse ioatead of
bettor. Wo hut apcnd our lime and strength
in vain, by such temporising and name-
changing processes. It was tried in Ohio
last year, and who is not sick and disgusted
wilh it7 If tbcco over was a. failure, terri-
ble, complete, overwhelming, it was the
" Union" coaihinnlion of 181)2, in Ohio.
It has not vitahty enough left in it, by good
and virtuoua acts, to givo it a decent funeral.
Tho BepubUcan party being dishonest, do-
iptivo and malignant, its loaders may. for
fear of doing worao, attempt to carry the

Nothing but plain talk can lead to plai

ask in all kindness and iu tho spirit of pat-
riotisuii whot is therein tho Democracy of
the North that prevents, what ia called the

States noting with it ? If there is anything

culation— an estimate in figures as Id ini/

Wo have white men in Ohio who demand
our attention — they ore freemen wilh our

ore honest, hard working men and they do
not deairo nor intend to be displaced by

South. Wo do not intend to Lave out

nny such reason, and taxed oa what wo cat

It is to atop the working people of Ohio
from passing a law lo prevent the filling up
ir State with manumitted negroes. They
tend to call tho not uncoiuliiuliorlal. by
putting a false construction upon our Slate
authority.

Wo hope we ore now understood upon
that point. Wo now wish lo notice another,
and wo hope tbe.ie border States men will
not overlook it. It is of quite as much im-
portance to them as lo us — it is in fact ol
mutual importance, and we therefore feel
tho greater obligation to slate it. It is this,
and wo put it by way of interrogatory :
Who do you eipect to vote with j'ou in
Congress againat tho extraordinary mea-
sures of tho WiLSOKS. Waoes, Tbcm-
EULLs, Hales, Lovbjoys, .Stevbnses,
Bi,sauA»is and such like free negro abo-
lition fanatics? Is It not to the Demo-
orats of the North that you look for
help? Do tho votes upon tho records of
both Houses not ahow that it ia on these and
these alone yon have to rely, and who arc
your only Lope, your only arm of strength,
weak as it is 7 These aro home questions
but questions that Lave got to bo an-
swered. Honesty , fair dealing, tho fu-
ture of our country, demanda that they be
ily answered, but ansivered in that
candor in which the questions are put. —
one, we are tired of double-dealing — we
tired of aide-showa in poUtios. Tho
slake is our country and the holders must
he honest, trustworthy men.
But you may ask why we are u-cak —
■hy wc do not aend you more help? Wo
fill tell you : Belore the elections you
ome over hero and] encourage your and
ur enemies. You take the stump with these
wild, ranting fanatica. and you decry the
Democratic men and measures. You give
' and strength to the blackest
Abolitionist amongst u.h. Vou lake Lim by
Hand before the election and defeat all
candidates you can — yon then go
Congress and find not a friend thore. i

AbolitionistSi to defeat ! It is thi(

—it is this you ahould correct,
and you should correct it before asking us tc
rnusfer our 200,000 Democratic votes in

truth- itisuot all tho truth. The Repub-
licans also had the now milttaty Governor
of Tennessee, here in Ohio aiding and abet-
ting Huoh Abolitionists as ^ere running up-
on the Union Ticket. It was a miied up,
dish-water concern, good, bad and mid-
ling, but what was the resultT It came
within two voles of nominating Wadb for
re-election to the United Sintea Senato, tho
very head and front of the offenders, the
chief cook of the Abolition confiscators
and free negro advocates, rough, uncouth,
devilish and vicious! If tbeso mon aro

inconsistencies of politicians. It got its
growth in this way — it eipects to live by
this deception. It could not stand a singli
election if met openly and by issues that
could notbomyslified.by tho forked tongui
of demagogical place-hunters. " We must
live if tho people die," is tho prayer of thi
mere office huntera. Thoy have lived, ant
tho peoplo have died. Their prayers have
been answered, but it wilt be the people
fault if tboy ore ever answered again. V
intend to pull tho curtain aside, so tliat tho
green-rooui maybe seen hy the audience:
and it wauls but lo bo seen to bo corrected.

There is not one grain of e.Tcuse for these
Border State men. They were petted and
pnffed, coaied and wheedled by the North-
ern Repohlicana, and thoy no doubt honestly
boliovod that thoy would bo safe in trusting
them. Thoy lent a too willing ear lo I
abolition slanders upon the Democrats, a
camo hero to help defeat ns. Wo forgi
them. Wc as honestly threw ourselves into
tbe broach to help them fight, in Congress
the very men they helped lo elect be
foro tbo people. It was wilh us a mattei
of couEoiBnco — of principle — and licnco Ubo

North are, what reason can thoy give
for trying to make aoolhor breach in our
ranks at so critical a moment as this, and
thus leave an opening for another two years
of abolition rnio in Congress? We should
like to see somo one try to answer this ques-
tion. It is a very plain, blnnt, honest one.
There are but two sides to this conflict— ab-
oUliun or anti-abofition. It may oasomo as
many colors aa tho chameleon, and it will bo
tho veritable animal in tho end. No one not
an abolitionist denies but what tbo Domo-
c rata are right on tho free negro question.
If thoy are right, then why not aupport
lliem ! We have been miied up with poli-
tics for over thirty years, and wo never
cbanged our name yot. Wo think of all
times in our history, that this is tho most
inauspicious of all previous times to tack
an alias to our cognomen. Our political
opponents havo used that "soience*' up.
They render a name odious in a few elec-
tions, and have to bunt u new one.

These aliaset aound too much like an

Iderman's court, to be very respectable,

and thoy are evor tba work of men who

have more regard for the profits of the office

than tho principles of the Constitution.

Tlie Democratic Hallonal Address,

We havo not yet seen a eingle Western
Democralio paper which has not approved
if this Address. A few New York Demo-
cralio papers, and one or two in Now Eng-
land, object lo it being iasned, white they

with aome people's arrangcmenls, hut we.

Wo believe that this war ahould he so con-

Biroy it, nnd let us aay that also ; nnd let ns
say further, that when it cannot bo eo con-

Early in tho morning ou Sunday a mes-

tbc messenger, aud tbougbtlbey must bu

be, nccompaniod by his stufF, rodu out to
the camp of the S3d, and remarked, upon
seeing tbo woods in front of him full of reb-
Is, that wo would probably have u sharp
kirmish. In a few moments Ihe rsbelij, who
hod advanced within range, litcd a volley
upon the General and bis staff, killing one
ol his Orderlies close by his side, Turning
around, bo e.xolnimed, " We nro ntliioked,"
and immediately rode back toward hia
headquarlors. Tbe SOd, in thu meantime,
hod beeu drawn up in line of bulllo by Col-
Appler. They first formed in front of their
camp, but as the rohelii advanced upon them
erwhelmitig numbers, they fell back to
ear of it whore thoy luy under cover
Lu rise of ground upon which their
camp was Ntnlioned. As soon as tbe rebcl.H
advanced within near range, they rose und
fired. They immediately fell and reloaded
and Ihen gave tho rebels another volley,
v:ken. Col. AppUr gave Ihe order "Relreal!"
He then ran for the riur and urdi not ai-ain

Lieut. Col, Fulton foltonred tbe regiment
in its retreat and ralUed thu men iu Iho rear
of tbe ISlh Illinois, nnd thoy fought under
bis commond the remainder of tbe day ond
Slonday.

Col. Uildebrnod made a report of his bri-
gade to Gen. Sherman, a copy of which we
have in our possession, und whiob Gen.
Shermun will never publish. Wi', therefore,
for Ihe purpose of vindicating tho noblo
boys whom he has endeavored to defame,
lake ibo liberty of publishing extracts from
it. Col. Hildebraud makes tbe foUoivlDg
menliun of Ihe action taken by the 5^ on
Sunday morning :

"The 5yd regiment, after formiug iu line
of batllo under my orders, fired two rounds
and immediately full back into thu woods.
Il oppears from the report of Col, Appier,
that, apprehending ii flank movement on bis
left, he ordered a retreat, but subsequently
rallied In the rear of Iho ISth Illinois. This
regiment became aepaialed from my com-
mand, ond its movements throughout the
day were general."

It will be seen from this that tho 53d did
not "run without firing a gun," oa has been
reported of them,

According to a speech which Gen. Sher-
man made to tho SJd tho day after the bat-
tle, ten regiments of rebel infantry attacked
tho position held by the 53J. At Ibe time
of Ihe attack the regiment consisted of about
■150 effective men— two companies being

Col. Hildebrand, in anolhor part of his
report, epeaks of tho 53d and its officers as
follows :

•■Tho 53d regiment I havo referred to

Col. J. J. Appier, fell back after two rounds,
under the order of Cn|. Appier. Soon
afterwords, as I am informed, he left the

Wo still have aaauraoceM from Europe that
these two powecB intend interfering with
our domestic troubles- That the Fronob
Minister's recent visit to Richmond was en
that boeinesB, and was sonctioncd by Presi-
dent Lincoln and Mr. SEWARD. Mr Glad-
stone's speech {see inside form) would indi-
cate that England ia very uneasy. The
opening of the blookado at Now Orleans,

said to bo for the purposes of allaying
English and French feeling. Will it do

Speech of licary Clay.

spaocbof Mr. Critte;(uen on tbo emaiici-
polion of slBvery, in the District of Colum-
bia, mado afoiv days sinco. This week we
publiahthatof Mr. Clay, mado more than
twenty years ego, upon the same subject !
Read it old Clay men oud everybody else.

they have accomplished it now, and convert-
ed thoNatiooal Capital into runaway uegio
quartora, Organiio everywhere, white uiou,
and administer a fitting rebuke to tbe worst
enemies you ever had. Uow many thous-
ands who voted llio Republican ticket )inve

War News of Ihc Wt-ck.

Wo regret that our Government did not
mako propositions to the .South, us it was
8£ud the President intended, when our vic-
tories were reported fconi every quarter.—
For the last few days the skies are not ac
bright, end (he concentration of the South-
ern lines is likely to givu us more trouble
than soQio apprehend.

While our reverses are not very oonsid-
oroble, yet tbo progress of our arms has re-
ceived checks cuougb to satisfy ua that the
war is not over hy tony means. Our victo-
ries have not been so bloodless either as
was reported. Wo lost soveral thouKand in
killed and wounded at Williamsburg and
West Foinl. as well as at other points all
along our lines to Fort Pillow.

Whilo these things do not indicate much
as to una) rosnlla, Ihey show that the Ci
fodorates nro not disposed to yield as loug
as there is «ny chance of opposing the
march of out troops.

Tboy indJcalo oaough, ulso, to show that
if our Generals aro not wary the tide of
battle may, at same point, bo turned against
ue. If such unfof Innately should bo the
I'boI, we may prepare fir another yenr'j
war, as it will be next to impogsiblo for oni
armies to remain South .siaty daya longcc
without beiog decimated by disease. Sick'
neaa is noiv making sad inroads into ouj
ranks, and hundreds are returning eibaust-
ed with disease. No otmy can aland such
rcducliona very loug, and few can bo foond
nho would volunloer very freely to go in-
to that ulimuto at this season of the year.
Tbie, wo brilieve, is the conviction of ulL
men ot much knowledge upon these sub-
jects. The hot season will be upon ua in
teu or filtenu daya more, and as the streams
dry up, muub of tho interior of the South
will be eucb that armies could not make
marches any great distance and depend up-
on the "country for either water or ptovia-
iuHK, and rcluJu health sufficient to keep in
the rants. If thii is not hm in u very great
extent, uur proTious iururmntion nf that
country bat been very erroueou*. A tbi

; shall be

w test o good many things, c
wiser after we learn mure.

Aaotber Imbroclio at Headquar-
ters—Slavery AbolisUcd in Soulu
Carolina, Georgia and Florida.

Wo have nuother big blow up at Wash-
gton on military emancipation. We had
le Fremont and tho Phelps Proclatoa-
ons, and now we havo that of Gen. Hun-
ter. This brief affair will be found in our
umna, and, though containing but few
ds bos raised a storm about tho While
Houao that, we ore told, iH irreconoilable.
Old Aba " bos his troubles, and if he had
r nines a enough to clean out the whole litter
of Abolitionists who are leading him and
e coantry to perdition, bo would make
ore friends than ho would lose by it.
We havo our misgivings that he laoks
is one necessary qualification for his po-
sition. He must bo looked upon as a very
weak man, or these men would not, again
d again, try their eiporimonts open him.
That ho must finally yield to them or dla-
iss them, ,8 clear. Which will ho do ?
Wa admit, and as we showed, in tbo
FuEMoST affair, that such Proclamatioi
amount to nothing, so far as the negro
concerned, but they tnake Sooeasioniats in
10 .South, and render the Administration
Idiouious and contemptible in tbo North,
nd ore the very means to csaaperale and
prolong this war iiidefiuit<?ly.

Why was HuSTEK sent there I It was
well known that while at Fort Leavenworth
be winked at, if noteucouragod, tho JeNni-
and Clevelamds, in hia Department,
to carry on their robberies and murders
right under his nose. We then ask why

larger field to bis nd 1 [. atious 1

repeated ocls of military folly are

disgusting to the last degree, and we are

not surprised to learn that a large portion

of (ho army oflicers have resigned, and left

en. HuJiTEB and his negroes to got along

Rumofs are that Hukter will be recalled
id tho Cabinet probably blown up in con-
qnence. Talk aboat Eupproasing rebel-
in ! Wbal a crime is this, when the very
its of high officers are creating rebellion
daily. How many precious lives are to be
orificcd to this negro Molooh ! How long
the nation to bleed and suffer from such
miaoonduct 1

Let President Lincoln take tho reins out
of Buch hands, and he will soon find more
>d9 than ha loses, and friends that will
bo of some value to him whan bo has them.
As it now is, bo can hove no sincere friends
anywhere, while those nearest to him iiro
his worst enemies.

Obnoxious Congressional JHcas-
urcB.

Congress appears to watch overy oppor-
tunity thnt offers to pass the most obnoxious
jsaible. Their purpose is evi-
ro bow much tbo public mind
They have created, (and have
prepared other bills to slip through of a
limilar character,) new offices enough of va-
rious kinds to impoverish any people, if
aeoBB to-morrow. If their ob-
ject is to make one-half the people olEco-
holders, and the other half tai-paycrs, they
could not better carry oat their purpose
than tho way tbey ace proceeding.

Among other foolish and useless aclSi is
one to cteato a Department of Agriculture,
in effect creating a new Cabinet olGcer. with
bis Bureaus and Clerks at an enormous ex-
pense, as time will show. If it is to raise cot-
ton in tho North, then the object will bo as
scniibU as such a Department will be useful
at this time. But this ia only one ol tbi
merable bills passed and lo be passed creating
oeiccM, at a time, too, when some-
thing liko economy sboold be thought of.
There is, of course, some
hosts of military offices, a
necessity, but what uei
lime for doubling tho
thus greatly increase the i
bad peace to-morrow,

it is claimed a

Tbe Aaaembly havo decided to hold thei
next ODUuni meeting at Peoria, Illinois.

The Assembly is mado up of the lending
talent and respcctabilitj of this old and
time honored Church.

To-day or to-morrow, wo believe, i
apart for tbe discussion of subjects which
have disturbed this old church more or

tJiey have all others. The most of tbo
churches long since divided into section
lions that were brought into them by
nodorti lights of tbo Gospel, and thoy
finally involved tbe political organisations

(hey would desire to avoid it. I( would bo found
(u be a very plain affair, nnd will bring up anotb-
question of still higher importance, a question
I discussed years ogo— a quealioa involving Iho
istenco of Government itsell, viz : That all
properly is liable lo hear its equal proportioa of
taxation. All property ia protected alike by
Government—oil is equally latorusled in preserv-
ing Government lo preserve itself, there foro^Gov-
m at all (imea exact ils proportioa fur
tbat purpoio. Thifl ia Iho old English law, and il
this theory (hat the privileged nobility of
that country were compelled (o pay taxes like
olhor peopio, udor (he Reformation. Jt is up-
on this theory that governmoala of law, hold the
ight to tax the peopio at all and for every pur-
pose—their protection by Government in their
and properly. It is (or this thoy poy laxes
legitaately, and for no olher purpose.
Hence the doetriae wa.i avowed and noted up.
I, ood became Ibo basis of British low, wrung
by tho people from Iho nobUity and privdeged
classes, that Parhnmenl had no puwur to declare
that any species ol properly of (ho subject could
be freed Irom (axalioo. If oiiy Parliament pass-
-"' -" act of that kind, any sulscqucnt Parlia-
rould repeal (ho act and re-inatate Iho
property upon tho (ax- eollec tor's roll ; olherwise
Parliament might weaken, if not destroy tbo
Government altogether, by escludiog so great an
amount of property from tho pcnaUies nf luxa-
tion, thai a sufficiency of means could not bo
eep tho Government in mutiou! At
Ihe hotlom of llilj question lies about oil the free
■ im man really posses sea in tho civilized world.

Wo pressed this queslioo to heavily upon tho
public considernlioa soma Qfleen or siilccn
ogo, that wo had hopes Ibat no politician
would nguin, iu Ohio al least, so lar get howilder-
hia manhood aa to succumb lo the

Wo might go over tho history of tho past
yrMT nnd reproduce lacU which we keptou
record, from time to time, in regard to nf-
Gura in this uuforluoate portion of our
oommon country. Wo have no doairo ot
jiresont, however, to barrow up tho past,
fiirthpr than it becomes nocesaary to pro-
[pare for a better future. There was a. mo-
in?nt, uevcrtholesa. a year ngo, when a little
\'risdom, a little forcaight, and a little un-
eolSeh amhitioD night have EBVcd that
■fcaauliful country from tho ruiD which bas
jvaf taken it.

Tho history of Jenni&on's military oaai-
pftign should sink d.'ep in into eiery heart
CfiBtia baman. Tho fact that this out-iaw
snd common robber should have been equip-
ped, and uudor pay of tho United SlnteH
Govemroent, is enough to urouso any one's
Hufipioion of the leugth V> which impoaition
baa been practiced ou tho heads of tho Do
paitments at Wiiehington— upiui Congress
which bad its War Committees lo search af-
ter bo cb uien of purity and bunor as Mc-
Clellan— upon the Republican luuders
who ought to iiBow whether their G
mentis making war upon the loyal
disloyal— upon Uepuhlicnu papers which
Hpared no pains to blow this Jennison into
Dilitnry impottiiuco, and saiig pean? »!
prabn over his ^^rent eiploits !

Are wo to take it for grauted that all Ihcst
inen were decoived— that they were iguor'
nat of Jeknison'S conduct — that they real-
ly supposed that he and Lase were legiti-
mately fighting the hatllf^s of their couutry
jiaeording to thu rules and regolationa of
XfBX and army diBoipline ! If they were
ignoraut. then they all owe the country an
apology. They owo it to themselves that
■Ibey should confess their ignorance. But
■irtiy ignorant! Thoy hud just the same
apportunitica that nu bad of knowing tho
trntb- Wo stood oxuotly on equal ground.^
in that respect, with this t-iceptiou — they
'Imd correspondents on the groiiud and wo
baj not. That gava them an advantage
over tia. I'lThapii wo knew Jennison' nud
Lase better than thoy, and so far wu bud
'tbat advQutagc over them. Tiieae papers
«u1ogi»d these men. wa denounced them.
They were called loyal lor publishing uu-
tcatbs — wu were denuunnod as a seoessiou-
'ifitfor publishing tho truth. Thus matters
■atood last year ; now wo bavo the written
(estiinoay of Jlr. ItiNCilAM, one of tho
Union Stutoofficpraof Missouri, under Gov-
Gamiu-e. Who does ibis tcatiniouy sustain —
'the Itnpublican popers or The Crisis?
We submit it to a oaudid nablio to judge '.
Tot, even Mr. Bijilhiau docs not tell half
tfac truth which u farther investigation would
dovelop. Ho confines hinwolf to a very
small region, and does not go beyond what
'moinlj' comu under his own eye. And yet
what a record does ho present T What uu-
lold miaorioa lie still coucoalod under this
anllioritAtire teatimony ! There lies hii!-
daa a mine of undovclopcd truths to make

core tho remova.1 ol Generals StubgiB

and Denver from all command in KansoB,
aeit? Is the Government going to
Jesnison'b conduct, and make him
joulh-pieoo for Kansas T It is truo
that the recently appointed Brigadier Gen-
eral Blunt is given tho command at pres-
who is Mr. Blust, and bow did
(ippointment ? lie knows noth-
itary affairs ; he was a physician
of Anderson oounty ; was a member of tho
Wynndott Conienlion, that formed the Kan-
itilution; be was eloolod against
negro equality by a few votes — three, wo
think— and then voted tho other way. A
of very common abilities, but, person-
ally, rather clever in his way. Ho is wholly
Ignorant of military atfairs, and no oipe-
rienco in public matters. There were Col-
onels oud Lioatenant Colouals and Blajora
Kaneas, who fought by General LYON'S
aidu as bravely as ony men iu the country.
Sumo ot ihom had much military eiporienco
ind many of them soldiers by
uen of the very first intellects.
But thoy were from this very fact objeoliou-
ihle to the murdorous and cowardly " Jay-
hawkers " and tho frowns of tho "inlluen-
d " wero upon them.

What are we to think of nil thesQ things >
What is to be the end of euoh overruling
isenough to mako tUo stout-
eat hearts quail under the inexplicable bed-
General Halleck, who, when
ho went to St. Louis, yielded to Iheao iiiflu-
1 lime, but being a
just and sensible man would not go the whole
jure, is now tbe object of attack and mis-
ipreaentation. When General Halleck
issued his order, (included in tbe protest of
B of St. Louis, ) ho no doubt was under
ipressioQ that all tho suffering of the
citizooB of Western Missouri grew out of

of tbe secossionists. But li
learned differently, and the letter of M
BiNOHAU proves tbe Rrror. It has long
tbe practice of these Jayhawkers to
charge their own crimes upon their oppo-
nents. It is an old game, and they hove de-
ceived their thousands. They have had
Uieir editors and their politicians und their
clergymen ready at their hands to spread
their falsehoods to the world, and to cover
ip and applaud their orimes. Hence tho
nisled public opinion.

Had tho people known that crime was not
,11 on one side, hut an affair of great admix-
ture, then the public would have known ban
to deal with it. For the wont of this knowl-
edge, the most villainous injustice and the
foulest injuries have resulted to the ianocoi
and many a good man was left in utter di
pair to know what to do or what side lo 1
vor for 1- elf- protection and escape tho 00
mou fate. Their families, their houses, us'
well as their lives were in danger, and tlioy
looked around tbem for safety aud pnteo-
tion. Tohold Jeliiveorlivein a comfortable
dwellbg, was enough to stamp them with
suspicion, nnd suapieion with such men is
proof positive. Property and plunder were
what tho bandilB wanted, oud il was too
troublesome to atop to enquire into a man's
loyalty or disloyalty. They proceeded at
to murder, rob, burn and coaJUealt. —
They wanted no law of Congress— no courts
of justice- uojury lo sit in the cases Ibey
up for trial." Thoy did not oven wait
for Fremost'6 celebrated Proclamation !

A New t'ltiiiHer in Litcrnry Btog-
rapby— Why Irviii); was Never
raarrlcd.

New York, April ). 16&2.
Maoli mystery bas sttuebed to tbe celi-
bacy of Wnahington Irving. Wbilo upon
■ivery other [loiulor fieouliority of tho great
writer's oburaotcr and career bis foinilia-
friencla bnvo takiin paius to inform the wid
circle of his admirers, an aggtiivoting reli
conce has nliroya mut tho qupatiooinga of
thoae who were curious us to why matri-
mony made no port of his esporieoce.
There mero oconaional and very vogue rof-
eitincoB niada ton "'laDj; syne" lore— bo
ilimly distaut iu tbo past as to have tho air
of trndilion— and tbe manner of mentioning
nbicb inodo Irving appear tho model of
Btouoyi if uot tho hero of a romasoe. i>ui i
the oirconistnnco of his bacbolorbood ro-
maJDed a simple, patent uueipluinod foci —
tho tbome of uiuny wondpriugs, warp and |
woof of muob iaiuginiog — nny more, stib-
structure of a thousand aiveot sympotUies
ootgusbing from other benrls whose loves
had nut been lost but gone before. It is
doubtful if a =ecrct of the sort— all thiags
oonsidt'red— was evur before so cwpfully
and toinplelely kept. For once ihe imper-
tinent were bold nt bay, the prying were
taulkcd. and llie sympolhetic. even, dia-
oouraged. Tbo set tiino for its disclosure
hod not come, and iiiirely, when bis inli-
mates and relatives were debarred from tho
remotest refetenco to the subject in tho
hallowed home circle of the lilcrary bnchc-
tor, it was but proper' thnt tbo truth should
burst forth upon tbn world, if at all iu Irv-
log's oiTu selected lime and iu bis oivn pa-
thetic I nil gunge.

it was ivbile engaged in writing bis " His-
toty of New York," Ibiit Irving, Iben c
young ninn of Iweiity-iii.i, was called t(
jDOUni Iho somonbnt sudden dontb of Mu-
CKda Iloffinnni whom be bed hoped to cull
lus wife. This young lady was Ibo ^iecoud
daughter of Jssiab Ogden Hoffniau, aud tho
sister of ibose two Inlcutcd meo. Charles
Penno HolFinnu, tbo poet, nud Ogden Hoff-
man, the eloquont jurist. In her father'!
«lliee. Wusbingloii Irving had cisoyed to
«tudy luMT, and with evory prospect, if in-
diutnouB and studious, of a pnrlnercbip
with Mr. Ilofl'innu as well as ii mntriuioninl
. 'ellianco Milh Matilda. These high hopes
■<>ero disappointed by tlio deueasu of the
yornig lady on Ihe 2l)lh of April, 160!), iu
dlo oiKhteeuth year uf ber age.

Tlicro Is a pulbos about Irviug's recital
•at tho oiroumataoces of her dealli. aud of
Vis onn feeliog. that is truly painful uud
4«ar-!niprlling. Husoys:

'"6he woi liken ill with a cold, Kolliing was
Iboughluf it at liraC; but gbaerau- rnpldlywurao,
3ud fell i'ltoa vui>«iiuiplion. 1 cannut tell )ou
tvhot I BulTurud. - • - ■ j j^,,. i,^, f„ju
"ilnnd uioro bi-autiful nod
lerj- lust. I itin often by

ally before l

nil)-."

Such was the language in which Irving

lured forth Ma sorrows and aad memoriea,
a letter written many years ago to a lady

ho wondered at bis colibooy, and eipressod
the wish to know why ho bad never married.
Can itordfl inore graphically doBoribo tbe
shipwreck of hope, or moro londorly dopiot
tho cbivalrio devotion of a faithful lover 1
Howeweotiy, loo. does Irving portray with
his artialie pen tho lineaments of hia loved
" ' Ho says in the samo letter :

i more I gaw of her tho nor 1 1 bad rcasou
to admire her. Her mjnd acenied to unlold itself
leaf by leaf, and every timo to diacover new s«
nea). Nobodi- know her ao ivell as I, fu)r eho
geDerallv timid and silent; but I. in a man
■tudiodhor escellonee. Never did I meet '
more intuitivo reetitudo of inind, moru na
delicacy, inorecxjjuifitepropiicty in word, Ihouglit
□udactiou, than in this young crooturo. I nni
not eiaggerating; what I say woa ocknoivledged
by all that know hor. Her brilliant littlo sisler
uacd to ray that people bCBan by admlriay b<>r.
but ended by IotIoh llulilSa. For iny port, I
idolized ber. I felt al times rebuked by bet
anperior deUcney and purity, and ob if I wan a

arso and unworthy being ia com pari son."
Irving seldom or never alluded to this and
event, nor was tbo name of Matilda ever
ipoken in his presence. Thirty years after
ler deathi Irving was visiting Mr. HoffmaDi
ind a grand- da ugh tor, in drawing out some
sheets of musio to bo performed on tbo
piano, accidentally brought with them a
piece of embroidery, which dropped upon
the floor. " Washington," eaid Mr. Hcff-
is Q piece of poor Malilda'r
workmonship." His biographer describe;
the effect as electric. "He bad been con-

,- in tbe
a ay a Piorro M.
once into niter
nients loft the house." Do any of the pBges
that record the " loves of tbe poets," glif
brighter halo than i
tbrowu around tbe name and chnractor an
memory of Matilda Hoffman, by tho lif(
long conslanoy and grateful tributes of on
whose nome. destined to a dealblcss renowi
may not beneoforth be dissevered from that
of the early lost and dearly loved, whoso
death made Washington Irving what ho was,
and what (be world admire 1

This maiim of each ancient etandicg, and

A. Painful and Romnntic Case.

■■A painful circumalonoe was related to
us yesterday, the accuracy of which we are
well able to vouch for. A bard-working
laboring man, who came to Greolong about
three years back, had, by long toil, and by
dint of great thrift, saved as much money
as enabled him to remit home a suflioient
«um to scud for a wife, a very amiable and
roapoolabli.' woman, and her young child.

tions of the husband informed tho woman
lal he had died of fever in tbo hoapilol,
ilhout leaving a single penny, and that he
had been buried at hi:< expense. Allowing
leut time to elapse, the confidant of
Ihe unfortunate man's dearest wishes iiiadi
overtures to Iho wife, and ultimately, by bis
diabolical ropreaeiitalious, prcvoilcd upon
0 marry him. The marriage hod not
consumalcd more thou two months,
anutber acquaintance arrived from
alia, fell in with tho woman
lated to her llie nnxioly of her buibaiid,
would by that timo be expecting her

nl. Terrified by .such an aunounco-

ment. and scarcely knowing which story to
credit, the woman charged her newhusbi "
with the duplicity he had praoticod, wb
takun by surprise, ho ooufeascd that bo had
made ber tho victim of bis deceit. A sepa-
ration immediately followed, when the uu
happy womnui instituting nome searching
inquiries, aacertaiued that hor second hus-
baud was a married man, with a ivifo and
Eoveral children, whom ha bod left behind
him in Australia. Absolutely belpleas. and
without one penny iu Ibo norld, sbo laid her
ooniplainl before some wealthy contlomou
in Itochoster, where she was residing, who,
sympatbi^.ing with her distress, raised suffi-
cient money to pay her passage out bore,
where she arrived a fortnight back- On
i^Hoking for her husband, she ascertained
!siding in South Greolong, but wos
on bning informed Ibat ho had only
lately got married. Booking out hU resi-
dence, she mot him at the door of his own
house, and, while relating Io him her own sad
state, she accused him of having betrayed
her by marrying another woman. Tho
husband (with tivo wives) then eiplained
that he had some time back received a letter
from tho friend by whom ho had remitted
the money for her to como to tho colony,
stating she was dead, and that ho wan ta-
king care of Ids lufunt daughter, for which
reason bo bad not roturnou the money
trusted to him, as bo was applying it lo the
child's support und education. Tho hus-
band then introduced his hrst wife to his
now bride, when, wo ore told, a soeno en
sued which beggars all description. Th
whole affair has been submitted to mutual

HonoBty, without doubt, would,
long run at leoat, always be the best policy,
ilercourso between nations;
but wheu applied lo tho internal affairs of a
oounlry, much more is it lo be regarded.
Arbitrary and men arch ial governments,
abound in seorots. ' The people are kept at
n distance from their masters, and until re-
sults come lo pass, what was designed be-
fore hand, they ,ire uot permitted to know.
But iu a country whore tbe people are tbe
Boveroigns, the case eUould be widely dif-
ferent. As far as possible there should be
a perfect confidence and sympathy between
thoao in power ond those out. Tho peoplr
should underalnnd the motives, policy uni
views of their temporary servants, ao that
they may know ecaclly how to think and
act on their pari. I ooucoivo it to bo thi
duty of all those in power, from the highest
to tho least, to let tho sovereign peoplr
kooiv not only what is going on. but in eve-
ry material respect to know ivbat ia intend'
ed for tbe future. They require to know
not only the osact position now taken, but
oIbc Iho plans and purposes of to-morro
Tbey wish and requite, as a matter of i
berent right, that they should uot only he
what is going on. but be perfectly posted
to all tbo contemplated or proposed meoa- 1
ures of tbo Government. Why should tbo
measures of tho Government, whether prea- 1
ent or prospective, bo concealed from those I
, for whoso benefit they should bo intended.!

If this is u more negro war. then let us
know it. If our while men are aaorifioed

uot for country, it is time, quito tim.

Execolives of the Nation and tho Slates—
that 00 more lives bo ucriEced,

whole field is now throwu open, and the i
is uo longer room for dodging. Let each

patriotistn, that it should be done, and cspi
tally is it due tho Buffering soldiers in tt

If Massachasotta refuses to furatsh any

Wo fiud tbo above going tbo rounds of
ouroicbanges; it is not reliable, though it
may appioaeh what wns intended by the or-
ders of tho Wnr Department to be tbo
truth ; but it is great injustice, in our opin-
ion, to place Hallecs's army bnfore Cor-
inth Qt 160,000 men able for service. If
he has over throe-fourths of thnt amount
he may consider bimself well off.

In Ihe above ntlbiug ia said of General
Geo. W. Morgan's column at Cumberland
Gap. Thoy arc oorlninly uot iiinong the
lfi,000 on guard duty in Kentucky and
Tennessee. If wo have 450,000 able-
bodied men, fit for active and full duty, wc
lay think ourselves woll off. Our killed,
ouuded and prisoners run up lo more
thousands Umu most men iiro williug lo ad-
bite the number of sick and dia-
charged nro onormously gf out. For besidet
hat the Govorument i^ doing, ciud which
ader ordinary oircumstancea should
b^en sufficient, the whole country is
Commissary Aid Societies to
Qiflb nHsiBlanco to the sick nnd wounded,
hich tho Governmont itself bus been un-
able to supply with all its commissary as-
ttance, and oil its moans, with stocks
ove pnr. All tb.jsu things me»n much
jre than meet the publio oyi-.
In behalf, thorefuro, of our brave men
the field, wa bespeak beforehand that
justice they wiQ deserve and which truth
demands, so that if Ibey should fail in
any of the numerous battles approaching,
they need not suffer tbe reproaob of being
worsted, while tbey had plenty of men,
which some of tbe estimates wo buvo seitn
would indicate, while truth and the real
facts might tell a very different story. It
is easy lo make estimates and win battles
at home by your firesides, but it is uot so
eosy to do it in the face of apposing forces,
equal to your own, and iu their own coun-
try where every bousd is on asylum to fur-
oisli aasistanco, and every man a, recruit.
Wore our armies at boaie in a defensive
warfare, tboy would bo. with the same num-
bers, doubly OS effective i\s placed where
tbey are now, with overy disadvantage,
even that of climate. The puhLc mind
id newspaper G<'nerala are ready for any
implatnt. nud tbe grossest injustice may
1 douo the bravest nud most devoted regi-
ments if the utmost care is not taken, and
nil circumstances taken into account. To

Dgar Snt :— Enclosed find two dol-
lars, for which send me TTic Crisis (not tho
idocod by Lincoln's prootnmatioa
of April. ItUil,) from ist inst. In No. 17,
I read your remarks on the call for a Slato
Convention. These are not only timous, bat
ippropriattf , just and fearless, in these tlmaa
if peril. Yott BOem not to have bud tho
feor of tb" Bastile before your eyes ; bnt.
Old Fogy, as j ou arc, you still adbero to
>ld Democralvi /mncipUs, when American
citizens had tbo right lo sptak and print
iam of public "itn and infaturtf.
Those were tbe daya of Jefferson and Jack- ,

which you woro an actor, and roceiv-
ed your iropreasiona of man's rights. If I
am right iu Ibis, it forces tho conolnsion on
my mind that, liko Rip Van Winklo, yoo
took n nap for many years, and now art
laboring under tho hailuoinalion of tho
rights of freemen, so fashionable in tho ear-
lier days of the Republic. Times liaTO

ware of tbo knout or tho Bostile. Tha aigia

now lo tbo consideration of yooi
le advice as lo the kind of moD who
should be sent to tbe Convention to repre-
sent tbo wishes of tha honest mnsaea, who
slill cling to and revere the principles of tho
Old Domooraoy, which guarantees tho great-
est good to the greatest onmbors; and,
therefore, tbo delegates should bo unwav-
ering jD tho fuitb. honest in all their porpo-
scsi loving their country more than aelf,
and fearless to speak the truth as it is. W«
want no trained, wire-working politicians, no
cliques who have their own interests in view,
no new-fangled, miscalled Union Demo-
crats, who have bung over tbo best inter-
ests of our Slate like a nightmare, pressing
down to the lowest point Uio-produoeof tha
farmer, tbo wares of tbe manufacturer, and
iges of the laboring icAife man. From
1 hybrid party, we pray; Good Lord,
deliver us! Lot the true, tbo good, the
fearless Democrats assemble in council on
tho 4tb of July, 1862. and a declaration of
independence will be proclaimed which, for
patriotism and sound political principles,

isia demanda just such a doooment,
and the masses expect it. Let this be done,
and a majority of 40,000 will endorse it at

:onal abolitionism will be driven from odt
legislative balls, and the people will bless
the Democracy which restored peaco and
prosperity to their distracted country. Go
on. sir, in promulgating correct principlosi
nork in soaion and out of seoson, till your

ODr CODcressional Disirici.

There is an idea fiied in some persons
heads that tbis Congressional District is
hopelessly Republicau. That the Repabli-
made it under such a belief is undoubt-
edly true, but we bavo seen tho schemes of
politicians so olten turn out delusive,
that we never forget that the people bavo
thing to do besides aanotiontng every
petty Bet of men who pass lawa to put
themselves into office.

We do not Think, with tbo issnea before
the people, that thia District is by any means
hopeless. Tbero is no District in the State
that contains a more noble body of Domo-
They nre farmers, a large portion
of them well to do, and sound to the core.
Long has it been since they have had on-
0 show their fall
strength,

The Mansfield ShUlti and Banner pro-
ises to the District east of ua. to invite
r, Co.'t there to ran, where tho Oemoorats
e nearly certain of currying their candi-
date. We hope no such thing wiU be
thought of. Wo do not know a Demo-
crat in tbis District who desires to be a
candidate. If there are any who differ

Further, wo believe

, in whom the
be elected on

the square and open isaoes presented. And
rely ni> man can do it with more grace
and pooudirity than Mr. Co.x.

It placed in a position to learn
of facts, can have the least
idea of tho change going on in tbo public
:gard to the negro oction of Con-
gress. Thorofusolof our own Legislature
to listen lo tho tens of thousands of peti-
tionera to pass a law lo prevent Ohio be-
coming tho common depot (or runaway ne-
groes, hiia revolutionized whole neighbor-
Tbo filling up of our

cities with these negroes, and tho colleagu.
ing with them, known to exift, hy the Re-
publican leaders, even to tho displacing of
white labor, has raised a eterm tew
bend. Let no oao mistake tho signs of tho
times. Let no one falter under the idea
that tho old state of trade and dicker may
still bavo some virtue left. That time bo!

Tlio Prcsbytcrina Gcuei-ul As-
sembly.

With thousands of others we eipressoul
deep regrets, that tbis body of ancient out
respected christians, assembled here nt oui
Capitol, should have fallen into tho annro o.
tho evil one, and made politics instead of
Christ's Gospel the great I Am of their pro-
ceedings.

Wo bad hopes, and yet wo cannot tell on
what they wero based, that at this hour of
our nation's sorrow and mourning, this A;
eembly of time honored obri'tiana woni
bavo ofi'ered up their solemn and sober
prayers for our whole people — for the
storiup of good order nnd penco ami
men — for tho suSering soldier and sobbing
wife and mother, and grasped in tbo
domain of their profcssionH, tho spirit which
saves tho t-oula of men.

But what have wo had ! Political wrang-
ling— sectional divisions — party hntus and
the canabal appetite which feeds on blood.
Did God send His only begotten Son on
earth tc preach politics — to dlvido nations
into political factions — to save souls by
lines of latitude r If bo did so, then we
wore lied to in our youth, and we spread
that lie in our manhood. Wo thought a
man might ho a christian and be an Kngli.ihT
man, a Frenchman or a Dutchman ; we did
not know that Govemnient-a iQado tho stand-
ard of Church mombership — wo did not
know that in entering the Church sanctuary

politics or whom ho would support at eleo.

led Ibia convention. But they aro gone to

her world, and hy thia time, wo preaumo,

informed of their errovs. Were they

on earth wo would call on them for an

explanation, if not an apology, for their

long teachings.

Dr. Bhecrjnridue carried bis measure
by iri!> to 20. But tbis great majority does
not change tho oheracter of tho questiOD —
do not RO to Heaven by ujajorities ;
St, PrTER does not sit at the gats lo count
up election returns. Ho searches a little
deeper into tho applicant's papora than tho
of his fellows, oven were it unanimous,
o SCO nothing now loft to prevent the
Northern part of tho Old School Proshytori-
initing in full accord with their brethren
of the New School. The latter ontioipet-
this result, sent them a. friendly invita-
tion from Cincinnati, whore they are also in
on, to join their congratulations, TVe
think thoy had just as well do it to save tbc
penso of building two Churches instead
ono iu tbo country villages.
Wo hope they may all find their last days
better than tbo first, after the union. A
portion of our paper is taken up with e.t-
trocta of their proceedings, taken from tho
SCattsnuin and Journal.

The Mtorm of 'Wednesdny.

Tho storm, which came near tearing up
the buildings at Camp Chase, on Wednes-
day last, continued up the Scioto valley,
crossing tbo river at the old pafcrraili, four
miles above Columbus, and from that point
0 Delaware county, we hHve the statement
if an eyo witness of tho storm, and its
ifTeota afterward.

At FiSiiiKaEit'amill,aii miles above toivn,
the storm hod divided into two veins, about
twenty rods apart, each vein about ten or
n rods wide. At Wii.ls', a house waa
blown down, uad hia orchard almost entirely
uprooted. At Johnsos'S, timber and
fences were scattered promisouoosly. At
iSLvT'rBEw'H, the timber was completely de-
atroyed, making u wind-fall of about fifty
I, that a rabbit would bo troubled in
getting through. At nKNDEKSO.^'fl, it is
reported having done much damage to tim-
ber, buildiuga and feuces.

le storm oroaeed tho Whetstone just
below the old Latdrop farm, in Delaware
ity. The damage hero was leas than in
Scioto volley. One pump was taken
I a spring, and left a bulf mile off, for
owner to call for, prove property, and
take away.

Who would bo Governor lo please aboli-
tiouisls t Who, hereafter, not an abolilioo-
ift, \*ould suffer himielf elected by such o
party I Was Gov. Tod .\ timid
man, bo might bo alarmed. As it is, wi
told, ho laughs at the hair-brained n:
who even go so for as to threaten to
hia dwelling. Whenever tho Journni
its abolition negro clique get up a mob in
this city, whioh appears to bo their aim, i
prcnumo they will bo satisfied with the c
ploit, whether the object of tho mob is upi
the Governor or anybody else.

That Gov. Too has tried lo bo a just,
discreet, and, as far as his new party affilii
tion wilt admit, an impartial Governor, vt
have before admitted. Simply becaase tt
Governor will not make himself as black, c
malignant, aa doviiish, ungenttemanly an
inhuman aa a native child of old Dabomoy,
therefore ho is bedeviled by day and by
night, by squibs verbally, and squibs writ-
ten, by insults to himself and inaults to hi!
family, drawn mildly whou in person, but
rough aud uncouth aa savages when out of
hearing-

Whether Governor Ton or an
paroled prisonera of war, tho a
purely military, and for cause known only
to military authorities. When outsiders,
therefore, undertake lo command armies,
by petition or otherwise, of
will be an exact aoience, highly congenial
with the puhlio intcresta '.

Now tho reasons in military circles for
paroling these prisoners, like olhei
ry nets, ore not made public, Whether
made by General McClellan, Secretary
SrANTO.f, General Hallf.Ck, or the Co
maudor-in-Chief of Ohio, Governor Tod.
not a mutter of official daily reports
newspapers.

Sometimes parols ure granted in Com
qucncc of ill health — sometimes for acta of
generosity in battle, to tho side granting
tha parole — somotimea it is dono to off-sett
liberality on the other side — sometimes li
ouses, as paroled oMcers, wo be
avitahly pay their own board.—
Surgeons ace, or should be, always paroled
they are not lighting men, but men whos
it ia to save life, und that witbou
disUnotion of sides.
Many, if not the most of thoso on parule
this city, ne presume, came under one
of these rules. That they were well be-
haved gentlemen, is generally conceded nt
the houses whore they boarded, both public
anil priviilo. That many of our citizens
treated thuui kindly and passed friendly aolu-
latious with them, both on their own accoont
1 ovidonoo of Northern feeling and
good manners, which might satisfy them
that ."o far a? thoy were concerned, this war
of necessity on our part to preserve
an, not one of personal hostility to
the South or her people. That if our sons,
relatives ot friends should be so unfortnaate
to fall into Southern bauds our example
would be act for thoir liberal treatment.

amattor of remark that those who
bad family relatives iaour army, were the
most likely to treat these prisoners rospeot-
fuUy. Aa a genera! thing tho hostility come
from those who ahould be in the army, but
-those who talk blood, but who do
not face cannon and minnie balls in the field
of strife. Governor Ton baa in nil this
bom himself generously and with true
Gubernatorial dignity, and paid little or no
attentiuu to the outside clamor of a portion
of his supporters last faU. Hence the very
low squib at the head of thia article and
Hoh that haa not appeared in print.
We should not have noticed this even,
had it not been for an occurrence on last
Friday evening in Mr. Waoneb'S saloon.
It appears that Capt. Fornek, of the ISlh
U. S. Infantry, (Carringtos'8, Camp Tbom-
I,) and a son of John W. FoBNF.r,
Secretory of tho U. S- Senate, was taking
refreamonts with Mr. Joyce, one of the Con-
lerate Prisoners, While thus engaged, a
ivate from Camp Chaso came iu and in-
anlted Capt, FoR-Vp.V in a gross manner.
Capt. FoiU'Er not resenting the insult, Mr.
JOVCE knocked tbo aotdier from Camp Cbaao

Tbis of course got up a tii-augular ei-
oilement 00 the Instant, aud quite a crowd
gathered in the streets eoon aflerwarda,
and each ono eipresaod hia views, as he un-
lood the rase. Some were down on Capt,
FOB.SEV for aaaooialing with ii Secession -

iat this feoUng seemed to prevail about the

Journal ofSce. Some pitched into the Capt.
because ho did not resent tho inaalt himaelf,
and "net leave it for a Secessionist lo do
it for him," Others regretted that Mr.
Joyce should bavo interfered and thus in-
volve his aasociat« prisoners in the eicitc-
mant. All admitted that tbo private or
rather orderly sergeant from Camp Chase
a sprue, and many believed that he
bad been instigated to get up the difficulty.

Groabtv camo in just at the moment from

uJEC of Friday Isat Ibis

General Totleu, Chief Enginoor of tbo
Departmoat, has replied lo the iuquiriea oa
tho subject of thD nbnDgus which inny Iinvc
teauintt nrrcoasary in the forts aoA otbcr
laeane of defooces. He Inys down tbe foU
loniog principles, ivhiob Love always been
mnintJiiQCil by pogineerc, catnoly — Forts
must folLtefure u competeDt land attack,
and that forts arc compel ent to resist anij
Topcl vcHacls. Both (beso principlea have
beon well settled by tnilitory oxpcrieneo,
and buve received full iUustratiou in the re-
cent uttack OD Port Pulaski.

After uu elalornlu argument, he i;Iiiles
'bi> foUonlDg concIuEioDs ;

I. That the plnoa of our soubonrd biil-
leriea of the simplest cbarnotor cannot
po98il>lj be improved.

i. Tbat tbn materinls being tho atrong-
oat. most indeslructiblo, imperisbnble and
cheapest possible, no change can be innde
m them ttiih aavanluge.

■3. That iron bus been used for years
past lo guard the thiunest oud most eipoacd
parts of thesu batteries, nud its further use
ia pprfeotly easy on tbe csisting works to
any Pitent. and ia n question of econoBiy
oiewly ; it will be applied whenever neeileJ;
the wnQmny bo entirely iron covhtqQ.

4- That all tho cbajjged iuordnauce and
jTOJecliloB oro great in favor of land bat-
leties, and againat vogsolir. in any cutn-
bat between the two.

r>. That guns of unlimited i\z« can ea!<i-
ly be monnied and covered on laud.

0. That no veGsolJcan bo built and float-
ei) that will not be caetrabJe to projectilos
!rom«UQh guns.

T. That one shot, rightly delivered, will
frotnbly sink the vessel, while tho fort
'.^an not be seriously injnred by the return
Gre of the vessel.

e. That the methods of naval wanare
cannot nvsil in such a contest,

y. That all tbe bast results of modem
^cieace, skill and eiporleoce are incorpora-
ted with these defences as soon as these re-
sults aio found to bo reliable,

10. That while forts can now, us always
berelofore. bo readily reduced by land but-
'pricB, thsy cannot be reduced, when duly
irmed and manned, by vessels.

II. That the use of ateam is a very
great and tho only osolusivo advantage

I afforded to vc-

inevitably

That this udvuuiagi
lerroiled only by inetue*ing tbe number aud

That the need for a full supply ..f

Tbe Nasliville,

The report is conlirmed that the piratical
steamer ?la>hvilU has again succeeded ig
running tbe blockade, and has arrived safe-
ty in Coarlnston harbor. She certainly baa
been a lucky craft in ibis business. For
some lime after the blockade was establish*
od, abe mode frequent trips in and out of
tho Southern ports, sometimes bringing
cargoes of nrmu, and always doing valuable
services to tbo Confederates. Her name
and that of her cooimaDder. Capt. Pogrim,
buve become familiar to all.

After several trips between tbe oitien on
tbe Southern const, iu whlob she always mau-
agrd to escape the vigilance of tbe blockad-
ing ofticer.^, she soiled in October tost to
Bermudn. The authorities there would not
allow her 10 lukf on coal and the Nosbvillc
was obliged lo go lo St. Georges, whence
ahe immediately sailed for England. Id Nd-
vember she cuptored aud burucd ihn ship
Harvi'y Bircb, taking tho crew to Southnnip-
tou. About tbe samo time tbo Federal
vessel Tuscorora appeared in the same
waters, and it was supposed that the pirate
craft would certainly be taken, but with tbo
connivunce of tbe British aho managed to
escape, and tbe neil wo hoard of her was
the fact of her ruuoing tho blookadu of
Beaufort, N, C., on the 28lh of February
last. It was then thongbt that she wasfore,
sure, and when Bumaido csptared Newborn
it was announced that tbo Nashville had been
blown up. It woa afterwards asoertnined
that tbia WBH not tho cose, and some days
lalcr tbe rebel steamer again ran tho blook-
ade and escaped. Her name was now
changed, and it was supposed abo would 1
not again undertake to cuu such risks, but
her appearance the other day ut WilmiDglOD
fulsitird these calculations. The Nashville |

A.i)AMS looked to a stroug Federal Goi

brated resolutions of Virginia and Kentucky
9, in wliioh the Republionnigm
of the SUtcs was de&ned. and tho rights of
tho States vindiouled against Fedornl as-
iptions aud Federal power. Anticipa-
ting this very controversy to again arise,
wo published these resolutions in tho early
numbers of tho Ist Vol. of The Citisia.
whoro thoy can be found by euoh of our
readers as havo them.

This controversy went to the Demooraey
—tho people ; and resulted In the oleoiion of
Mr. JeFPE&soK. tho real author of theee

have often wondered whether mcu, when
talking about ouly sotting free " tho slaves

i BO shallow or ignorant as nut
insinoority of such professions,
and the consequences of suoh acts.

Men may talk about middle ground on
this subject until tbey are hoarse, it duos
not tako any largo amount of perception to
see that there are no suob grounds of action.
It is the abolition of slaves on ouo aide, and
an ti- abolition on tho other. To that it came
when Lincoln was elected, and no time
oao change the nature of the political issues
or tbo relative position every man lias got
to take in tho premises.

Wo know that many Repubbcans deny
tbid, but it is only n denial; It does not
change tho faots, and uo man can hereafter
vote tbo Uepublicau ticket or afiGlliale with
that party, unless ho Is ready and willing to
avow himself a full disoiplo in good standing

If this was not so, then tho coufiseatii
of slave property would bo put upon the
luio ground as the confisoutiou of nny oth-

For tho pnat year tho Abolition Reptibli
can press and abolition howlers, in and ou.
of Congress, have been constantly engaged
in trying to affix tho brand of disloyalty
the fair nnmo and fame of that sterliug (._
triot and tborougb statesman, Vallandig-
ham, our gallant Re proa on tali vo from the
3d district, siuiply because he has ha<l Iho
pluok to beard Ibo abolition lion In his don-
to Blond up for the rigbte of hia conslituoni
and citizeiiB in all parts of tbe country at
dor the Constituliou, withoot fear of Fort
Warren or any otber penwcnlion their usur-
pnllon of power might suhjeot bim to*-be-
be look every occasion to raiao his
against tbo reqklosa oitravagance of
tbe rascally minions, whiub tho preieot
govurnmout had gathered around it — be-
cause be would not consent to their policy
of spoils for the conduct of this unhappy
nar— as exhibited by tbe CoogresBionnl In-
stigating Committees — for these reosone
baa benn continaelly (roduccd and abaaed
by hia political enemies who lue afraid to
meet bim in dubale in Congress — and who
afraid to meet him on the record of
Is and actions, to oumparo their lovulty
to the Union of SlAte;, utt it woe left to us
by the Fathers.

Tho villifioalion of this eminent and pa-
triotic Deinucrnt has beooms a part of the'
bnocorobe staple of these abolitioo, disunion,
negro equality, umalgamatioa scribblera
and denmgogaes, whoso corruptions are as
pnlenl to tho good peopio of tho Union as
it is to-day, as ia their cowardly Irtaion to
lion us it was eighteen mouths ago.
It will not do nay longer to preach abolition
treason with one breath, and try to pull tho
woo) over it by howling groondlesa charges
of tremoD agafnat good honest Domoorats

Tho peoplw are tired of this— they hu?o

an too inuoh of it. For over iwelvii

months tbo abolition Republicans have plcty-

'il this game, in and out of Congroas, mora

uoceaifuUy ; but tho late spring elections.

Wo eaw to-day a ca^e of longevity en-
tirely without poraltol in the United States.
At Austin's picture gallery, we met Mr.
Potor Rozelle, of this city, aged IIW years,
sitting for his likeness. Mr. Rozelle was

month, he will roach the eitraordinary ago
of itW years? He is still quite cbeorlul
and hearty. Qnitig torheuinatio complaints
ho ia able to use his lugd but little, but ho
aits up in his chnir. conversi^a readily, re-
tains his memory perfectly, und chews to-
bacco vigorously. By the way. let tobacco
cLewers take comfort. Mr. Rozelle soya he
began the use nf tobacco when 12 years of
age, and hn= continued it oninlarruptedly
for 97 ycara. Tobacco cannot he quit«

Tho clear memory which Mr. Itoaelle
possesses, renders his ounvorsation at much

tta doparled of another generation, aa ho
relates incidents of tbo dnys of Washing-
ton, and tho old patriots who figured ia the

Ohkiin 01' THE Polka. — Soinenhere'

about tho year 1831, a young paaaaat girl,

who waa in the service of a citizen of Elho-

<einitz, inQubemio, performed a dance of her

iwn invention one Sunday afietnonn for her,

special deleotatiiin, and taag a suitable tune

who happened to be present, wroti' down

tbo melody, and the now dnnco was &ouu af-'

tot publicly porformrd for the tirst time in

Elheteinilz. About l&ltSit made its ootrnncel

into Prague, aud ihoii it obtained tho name

of Polka, from tbo Bohemian wi,ird Polka,

'■ot half, from the half stop prevalent in it

Four years later it was carried to \'ienui

iiy a Prague band. In IB40, a douoing'

Aiaster of Prague dauoed tho poiku Witt

j^at Buoceaa at the OJeon. whence it found

its way with extraordinary rapidity lo every

■inncing-room. Tbo first polka that nppeor-

cd in the music trndo was compoaod by

Franz Hilmar. teacher nt Knpidlino ; and

oventually Labitiky, Liebmaon, Proohaska,

'Swoboda, and Till, produced some first rate

.polkas. The ^irl who discovered this --

■nowned dance is now married, but no

Jcaows her name. Thn •' Polka TrembUnte,"

or Sohottisoh, is also a Bohemian national

The Dcmorrnilc I'nriy—Tlic Fii-

\Vc hovt'i in si'veiol nrtielo9, called pub-
lic nttonlinn lo llio fearful condition of the
country, onii Eointcd out tvhat we boUeved
lij bo iho only bope loft by nhioh anytbing
n{ couDtryi of SIat<?3, nnd of CoastitatiouB,
dtUpr Nntionnl or Stole, coold bn saypd
from Qouttor wreck. Every liour produces

viowa nro not only correct, but tliat they
irero not dpokcn a momcat too Boon- They
ncro not noir iritli ue. as our readers can
tOSUIyi Ijut Buah \taa tbe coufujcd state of
tbo public mintl and public temper, that au
c'lrly and full dovolopoieuf would have been
'Couteil by many nbo now confess tbc true
■Into of nftUirs, ond that thoy bad been led
10 false hopes, aad bad formed bofelesa ex-
peoUtions.

While tbo cry wns kept up by thoae in au-
ihorily. those who it wna natural enough to
suppose, oughttoknow. gave out thattbe war
n39 one ot short duration, tbnt a few days,
ivcoks or Diontha would see it enilod, and
iho UnioD lestort'di tbouaaads were led to
beliovo □ Eo mnob daaircd momcut was
about to arrive- We wore willing to grot,
ify Ilia idea, by confining our remarks
moatly lo tbo poasibility of such a result,
and frequently put the natural question,
"what tbeut" What, bow. wbon and
nhere, were all these things lo be occom-
pliehed, even if the Koulh should Iny down
their nnu», auo fur peace, and oak to return
lotho National fold? Such bad been tho
proptejs of events, and each, ns wt> (wa-
ceived, tho blunders of those in authority,
that they had hedged tbeniselves in so for
with acts looking to fmytbing else than n
restoration of tho Government, ■' tho Union
aa it wof, nod tho Conslitution ns it is,"
that we feared (ho Government had more
difficulties upon its hands than the army of
tho Confederates offeriDg to give ua bnttlc.
Wemight ivbip "the rebels;" they might
liy down their arms and sue tor pence, yet
there were great ond most importajit ques-
tioDS still lo settle, that had aa much coni-

theEO to bo reached and satisfactorily sot-
tlcdl WLoivfls todoit I Who had ebown
mini and stateamau-liko capacity sufficient
to be eutrustcd with questions eo great and
aotickbsh! filundeis, errors, obstinacy, a
spirit of dovilishnesa and oppression coald
not do it. Suob men would only add despair
and worse diaKatisfaction, and tho second
[^volution would bo worse than the £ral.

But all hopes of peace are for the present
soattorod to tho winds— ell ejpectalion of
less than nuotbet year's war is post and
gone— instead of Mr. Seward's predictions
being true, the Govemment is again calling
for more aoldiers, and tbo whoio country is
10 tbo same trepidation and war fever
it was n year ago, and from all appearance
we are as far off from a terminntioa of
troubles as when we coiumencod. These
things ebould not havo been— tboy need not
hove been— and we can only charge it to
tbo bad niauageiueut of the civil authori-
ties of tho country, for surely there can bo
00 blame laid ou tho militory.

Tic Army n created simply to tight.
This they have done, but tho more they do
of it the greater is the confusion and thu far-
ther off we got from tbe understood orij
parpose. Jlon and mouoy bavo been a
fioed without stint or limit. How many
are lost, ^ bow tnucb money spent, oi
propertj- dt-slroyod, is o matter of conjeo-
lute, ns l!ie numbers and amounts could
not bi> kept, so groat have tbey been.—
Eath day seemed to furnish its own nccoa
'itj". and passed into oblivion, to prepare foi
Ito neit. The public mind bos becom*
wisettled and the public clamor is only sob.
■'"cd from tbo inadequacy of any ouo t<
faUy comprehend tho enormity of tbo
"hole.

_ We therefore look around to see if there
u a hope left— Q chance to Ond a path load-
jg to day-light-u gUmmer through the
■"ikQeis to direct to open, grounds and
Pl«e of rest. We find no considerable num-
oar of men in any organized condition on
"nom to call, in this hour of peril, but tbe old
Demooracy. Thoy stand ready lo do,
^ oie, to step forward in aoUd oolumiia for
"■eic country and constitutional freedom
once m„p. Tboy see and appreciate
"^gi aa lb..y arc. Tbeybave neither boc-

tiona! hatreds nor party onda to answer,
furtbec than what subserves tbo good of tho
whole country. Unambitious, patriotic,
thoy look only to (he. beat means of preserv-
ing the inalitutions of tbeir country os
banded down to ua from our fathers. No
man can, therefore, truly tepreaont thom
who is not imbued with tboao sontimonta
and is a part and parcel of tho samo.

Any comhinationa which would QUthoriae
men whom thoy elect to office, to barter
away any of these gteat caeential princi-
ploB. would be ruinous to tbe whole, and
but prolong the very evils now complained

lud which are bringing ruin upon tho
whole land.

Wo havo noticed, iu a previous number of

Tfe Crisis, tho singular poaition of what

colled tbo Border State Union men,—

They have been found acting before the ol-

ns. in the fceo States, witb the radical
abolition partizans, while aftor tbe election
they find none ready to do them justice, or
stand by thom in tho Halls of Congreas,
but the Democrats of the North, to whoao
defeat before the people they had lout their
couutenanoe, aid, support and their stomp
e)tfr|uence. As me remarked tbeu, this
playing at 2'olilics will not nnsirer any fu-
ture purpose. Tbo criticad condition of tbo
country will heroaiter justify nothing but
serious work—work that no honest hearted,
plain-spoken man can misunderstand.

An abolitionist in Kentucky, Missouri or
Tennessee, iano better than an abolitionist
Ohio or N'ew England, Tboy may silvo
over their free ni'groism to suit their loca-
tion, but they ure no hotter than tho incen-
diary Horace Greelev, or Llovo Gamh-
;0N, and nro moviug to the some oiid. A
Union, Constitution loving man, living iu
Ohio, is no more a traitor or seceBSJonist

though ho lived south of tho Ohio river.
To bo an abolitionist Booth of Ohio you
must ory Uuion louder than any ono else;

? a Union man North you must go in
strong for emancipating the negro. This ia

tho anomalous condition into which the
politicians have got the marks on tho polit-
ical black-board. It has bewildered thous-

, and is intendod to bewilder tbouaands

ir object is to strip tho gauze from tbe
shoulders of men who keep hidden under so
transparent a covering. WUen this is done

Bball all seo wore clearly, uud politics
wiil be a reality iustead of a bye-play iu
t committoo rooms. Our government
is a government of THE PEOPLE, audit

duo the government and tbo people, that
tbey should bo dealt fairly with. I'oliti-

nB must assume no wore tbuo to ropre-

it tho people fairly und iu accorduuco

h our free Conslitution, which ia tbo work
of tho people tbemaeivea.

We stated alio that some of tho New
York politioinns, calling theniBolvos Dem-
ocrats, did not approvo of tho Inte Address
pnt forth by some of tho Democratic mem-
bers of Congress. Tho reasons, wo pre-

DO, uiaj' bo found in tho following, which
cut from tbo Noxv York Argus, a Week-
ly paper lately started iu tho city of New
York, This writer, whois endorsed by tho
Editor, tats us fully into the reasons for ob-
jecting to that Address. We suspected tbe
only objections lo it were, tbnt it left no
room for trading. Tbo New Y'ork politi-
oians have, for many years, been notorious
for political trades and combinations, and
tbo luoro abo makes, tho deeper and deeper
she gets bewildered. In no other State per-
haps could Damel S. Dickikson bavo
strack hands with the Horace Greeleys and
Rev. Ward Beodiers and made it successful.
It js true (hat trodo was only good for i
(Ucliii'i, and cow another is to be put
foot of a somewhat different character, lo
aupplnot it. But why not fight these traders
and dickerers in priooiple. with nn open and
boldappcal to the [jcople on honest grounds?
Why not meet disboriealy with houejty I
Why not give tbe Democratic element o
chance for Us life, by an open ticket and clear-
ly avowed oud defined principles? You now
make tho plea that tho imperilled condition
of tho country, is so imminent that there
is no time to be lost nor chances to he ran
of defeat. But what will u victory bo
in saving a country, if wou by doubtful and
half eipressed opinions, and candidates to
match? Wo believe that is just what is
the matter now. We believe all
fortunes have been brought upon ua by
politicians of this very caste — by carrying
elections on sot phrases of doubtful or
double meaning. Dor enemies got tbo ad-
vontago of us in all such contests, and cvei
will, because unacrupulouaness ia a part of
tbeir porty tactics.

Suob a comhinnlion aa the writer below
proposes, will, in nine cases out of ten, lose
more votes than it will gain, because thoao
it brings in will make demands that honest
Democrnts cannot, in tbeir hearts, approi

They enter tho campaign reluctantly and

spiritless- they meet their opponents at a

disadvantage which they feel and confess,

id whatever tbey propose by way of gtn-

il palriolism, their opponents will ro-

itorato with double assurances to the public.

But when you chalk the lino- get up your

posta of demarkation, and make tbe issue

plain and distinct, then your opponent bos

got either to leave- abandon tbo hustings, or

distinct gtounda why

ho differs with you. Then the voters can

sily deleot tho fraud in professing great

id general principles which they take

book in practice, and deny in details.

At tbe last Presidential election in New
Y'ork, tho Democrats gave 313,510 out of a
U of CT3,l5li cast. Now wo appeal to
tbo writer of tbo following article if he does
t ospect and estimate tbcao SIS,-")!!) dcm-
ooratio voters as relioblo in this transfer.
But supposing tbey, as a mass, should not
loaatiflfied with the orrongomunt. what do
you gainbutalossofobaracter, if defeated?
You rely upon these 312.510 men as true
id faithful to constitution and country^-
truQ that in any event they will throw
eir votes whenever and wherever they
in do it for their country's salvation, and
especially in this hour of its peril, This ia
giving them, wo admit, great honor. It showa
tho general estimate of their good, genuine
id unsuspected obaraclet.
But whot does it say for Ibe 362.0-10 who
voted againat tbo Domoorats in 18C0. Are
they 80 hound to party that thoy would vote
for tbeir country's ruin unleas bought over
by some arrangement ? Wo bave a bettor
[linion of all that party who are not wed-
ded to tho negro, than that. And thoao wbo
iro so wedded, no combination, uo proffers
if Union, no propositions to save a consti
otional form of government, will cure.
Nothing but a good thrashing ot tho polls
rill ever open tbeir eyes, or produce a con-
■alescenoe. Thoy arc the original source
of all our troubles. Tboy labored thirty
years to produce tbe present etolo of things
tbo South. Tboy are tho original revo-
lutionists against Constitution, Law and
ovornmeut. Let us, therefore, meet thom

Lot ua thus prove lo the South that
in real earnest, and that, while we
oppose their eeparnte government, wo are
equolly hostile to thoao in our midst wbo

Having mado thla progressive step in our Hnvy,

For three-quarters of n century, tho United

as they wore created, and as our talbera legisla-
ted for them. I claim no originality for IhcEO
thougtita : they have been entertained by BOme of

of England, ocnonu tbem Mr. Canning, who,
when the British Parliament was coosidcriog

One of tbeir great atalesmeo of to-day, Lord
John linssell, whenever ho aliudoa to tbo black
race in America nnd to a c.bnn^u of its alatui,
talks only ol very cradual emancipation, because
he knows Ibat sudden and unconditional omanci-

[be white man. British stalesioeD oppose in)

Tboro is one other subject that 1 beg
leave to refer lo HOmowhnt in (lotnil. Tbo
right to coufiscnte iiroperly has been claim-
ed under tho war power. Petitiouit bnve
been presented hero almost ovory day of
tbo sCGsion asking thnt the property of the
la bo configcated anil tbeir slaves sot
under tho war power. Tbe Soaiitor
from Masaaohusetts, (Mr. Sumner,) I Ihinl.
boa presented a wagon load of them ti<.
session. I am awnro that it is cininied il -
under tbo war power tbo President nnil ln'
genernls have tno right to omanoipato slaves
and confiscate other property, nnd that il is
derived from tbo poiver which it ii said the
President has as (JommaQder-iii-Chief of tho
Army in Uino of war to dpclaro mnrtial lair.
Now, 1 deny that tbe President of tho
United Slatosi that any general commanding
our forces, ay, that tho Government by Tir-
tuo of any or nil of its departments can
declare martial law. There is no such power
given in tbe constitution of our counlry,
and wLoevcr has nttompted, or shall bere-
nfter attempt to oierciae it is a usurper — ho
overthrows tbe C'ODStitutioa of bis govern-
ment. Tbat is tho position I take ; nod if
look into it closely I do not think you
can douht its truth. Now. what is this
martial law? I will read a definition, as
good B one, perhaps, as any you will find,
in Jacobs' Low Dictionary. Jacohs, in his
Law Dictionary defines martial law to be —
"The law of war that depends upon tho just
arbitrary power ond pleasure of Ibo King or
ieutenanti hu uselh ubsotate power so tbat
word ia law. A distinction should be mado
.veen martial law as formerly executed, en-
tirely ut Iho dlscreboa ot tbo crown aud unbound-
' ' its authority as to persona or crimed, and
it present ealabliehed, wbicb is limited us lo
both."

Tbe Duke of Wellington defines martial

" Tho will of the commander-io -chief,"

Sir. Wharton, in bis Law Dictionary, do-

" That rule uf action which is imposed by tbe

litiiry power, and bos no place in tbo iastitutiooa
of tbia country, unless the articlca of war ostab-
lisbed uuder tbe mutioy acts be considered as of
that cbarocler. Thu prerogative of proclaim'mg
martial law within this kingdom i a destroyed, ob it
would appear, by tbo Petition of liightE."

Tbe latter part of tbat definition I shall
ifor to in future. Martial law ia tho obso-

te will of the Commander-in-Chief; bis
ill is substituted for the law ; nnd that is
tbo power that Is claimed now by many of
our generals in tbc field ; it ie claimed and
exercised to-day by the President of the
United States through his subordinates, his
gouerals in the field. It is a power which,
wheoover exercised, in my judgment is an
overthrow of tho Constitution of tbe coun-
try. What are the powers of tho Presi-
dent? His pcwerd are limited by the fun-
dameutal law. The Constitution says, " ho
eball take care that the laws are faithfully
mted." Tho Constitution, treaties and
laws made in pursuunce thereof are tbe laws
the President is to see executed ; if he goes
beyond these he violates tho Constitution.
The President bos no legislative or judicial
!r. Under tbe Constitution tho judicial
power is conferred on a distinct and inde-
pendent body of magistracy, tbe judicary.
The legislative functions are devolved on a
separate and distinct body ot magistraloa,

?ly I tho Legislature of which wo ore a

. If you concede to the President the

!T to declare mnrliul taw, yoa clothe

tiim with power to overthrow tbe Constitu-

>u and suspend all tbe laws, and his will
becomes tbe law. He is then invested with
utive, legislative, and judicial functions,
and becomes an absolute despot. In our

nvcrnment the President can exercise no

, plied powers ; the eieroiaa of all snob
powers is, by the Constitution, confertcd
upon another and different body of magis-
" icy. Congress alone can exercise implied

nors. Such is tbe express language of
the Constitution. Tbo lost clanao of tbe
igbth section of the first article of tho
Conalituti'in declares that Congress shall
have power

"To moke all laws which shall be necesaary
aad proper lor carrying into execution the foro-
coioi powers ond all other powers vested by this
ConaVtulioo in tbe Goverament of tho Uoited
States or in aoy depailmeot Ibercof,"

Tbo President can legitimately cierciao
DO power except such as is conferred upon
him by tbe express provisions of tbo Con-
stitution and the laws and treaties made In
pursuance thereof.

Those who nro charged with tbo preser-
vation of Ibe Constitution have no right to
overthrovr it, Tho Constitution secures lo
the people certain rights, certain immunities,
and certain privileges, which every citizen
LD this broad land is entitled to ; and tbero

then

lend. Tbe sovereignty, tbe people of tbe
ilates of Iho Union, through their ropicsei].
tntivee, have tbe right and poiver to amend,
alter, or cbango Ibe Constitution in the man-
ner prescribed in tbo Constitution. Then
there is left to tho sovereignty, tbe peopU',
10 last resort, tbo divine right of jovola-
by which tbey inav, by force, threw oS
a Government which they cannot rid tbcm-
Bolves nf otherwise, wbon it becomes op-
and aubvorsivo of tbnir liberlios.
Tbo Congtitntion snya that ■' no bill of at-
tainder or ex post fnoto law shall be passed;"
and then it says many other things, a few of
wbioh I will read, from the amendmonis of
the Constitution, which set forth some of tho
rghts secured lo tbe people,
Theso aro rights secured to tho people ot
tho United States by the C'jnstitution of out
fathers ; and if you clothe tbe President
with the power lo declare matial law, yea
not only overlhrow nil Ibeso rights, hut you
overthrow our entire instilutioos, thu Pres-
ident's will becooios Ibe law instead of tho
Constituticn of tho country. Senators, if

JOU clothe him with ibat power, yon givu
im tbo power to destroy yonr free govern-
ment. If he has the right to deoloro martial
law in ono oity, aay in the city of St. Louis,
ho has the right to declare il in a whole Stale;
bo is the judge of the neoessiiy. Indeed,
martial law has heen declared in tho entire
State of Missouri, If the President hasu
right lo declare it in ono gtate ho has n
right to declare it in all tbe Stoles. Sop-
peso bo Bbonld think tbe ueoossity exists—
and those who contend for this doctrine say
ho is to judge of tbe necessity — to declare
martial law throughout tho whole Unitod
States, what will be tbo result 1 Your Cen-
grens would bo overthrown, or il would ex-
ist upon bia will and pleaau.ro only ; your
courts would all be overthrown, and tho
Prosidont might enter this lloll, as Crom-
well entered tho chamber whcro the Long
Parliament wero sitting, and speak lo ua as

1 ... iiirnblo logic of tbo position;

L 1.-, u., L.iC."ipo from it. Thot powor is
meil, and it is being exercised this day ;
of your generals la doing it with a, ven-
geance, Wben you olotbo tho President
with this power, if tbc war ehonld last tive □•
ty years, be can perpetuate his authority
that length of time. What has been going
on in Missouri I Tbe constitution of that
State prescribes the right of suffrage, and 1
will read an extract from the constitution of
Missouri upon tbat point, aud show you
what has been done in Missouri to prove hoir
Abrnbatn Lincoln could perpetuate h'n poiv-
this war exists, if yon admit
Btroas of all heresies that the
declare martial law, and there
would be nothing to prevent it unless ao in-
dignant people shall rise up and smite the
usurper to the earth.

There you see that a military oflicer, ns he
aays, according to the advice of tbe uoting
Governor of Missouri, baa taken upon him-
self to prescribe tho<]ualificatioua of voters,
and those ijuolifications in direct coatlict
with the constitution of the State where he
is acting. All this appears to ho approved
by tbo President — be at loi^t has not an-
nulled it. Now, supposothat Abraham Lia-
coln, Prosidont of tho Unitod Slates, waste
declare martial law throughout the wbolo
Union, and wo wero on the ove of tho elec-
tion of the next President, und ho himself
was a candidate, oould he not pubbah u mil-
itary order declaring that uU those who did
not vote the fiepublican ticket, or even all
who did not vote for Abraham Lincoln for
lident should not bo permitted lo vote ?
Could he not compel them to take an oath
that they would vote in a certain way!
Clearly. Thus you see that you clothe him,
by this extraordinary doctrine, with tbo
power to perpetuate bis away. There is no
logical eitrioatiou from theposition. Those
who claim that tho Proeldent or his com-
manderii have a right to declare martial loir,
cannot I'au ape from tbe posilion.

General Halleek has done a little more io
iesouri. 1 do not read those papers with
ly view nf making a special assault upon
bim or anybody else ; but I wish it distinct-
ly understood that I think General Hulleck
has transcended his power and ovottbrenn
the constitution ; and he and the President
both deserve end gbonld receive tbe etem-
est rebuke that tbe ropresonlativoti of a free
people con give. I read them to elucidate

Dut how aro you guioi to eeparatu Ibem t Ii
my huinble opinion, Mr. I'rciident, we ihoutd be
tia at leaat with Ihreo confcdcraciea — tbe ciiufed
uniey of Ibo Kortb, tho confederacy of tho At-
luiuc Southern Statca (Ibo ilarebolding States,)
and the conlcderacy of tbo Valley of tho hlia-
ci-iippi. biy lilo upoa it, air, lliat vast population

Iratu upua Iho bend watcra and tributatiea of the

woijld bo the coaBcquenceaof a diiaolutioa of the
Uaioo. But other conlederacies wonld anting up

tcot were di(tominaIed over tbo countv)'. There
would bo tho coafeduracy of the lakes— perhaps
Ibo coafedcracy of New EoBlnnd. and of tho

Bot. air, Ibo vi'il which cotcra theto and aad

I said that I thought tlint there vcaa no right on

eitracts from a letter of Henry Clay wiB

I to tho Rev. Mr. Cotton, ono of Mr,

"iVsllLrtSD, Sept. 2, l&ia.

tionists should enjoy tbo spoils of oQioo and
revolutionize tho government. But if Ibe
fanatics ond fools in Cougrnss aro very ro-
luetant to fight, thoy have nt least tbe power
of supplying with money a patriotic army
ready ond willing to pour out ila blood like
r for the Union. Hero again Congress
fault. It will not pass the Tfls bill, eo
csiontinl lo tbo fmonolui credit of the coun-
d tho ultimate success of oar arms ;
it wastes its tinio iu discussing and
passing foolish bills for confiscating Ihe
property of rebels of which wo have not
possession, which is about equal in wisdom
to the project of omuuoipatiug tho slaves
before we are in oc^jupation of tho territory
ere tho slaves are lo be found. Tho pro-
rb of counting tbe cUiofcena before thoy
are batched ia prudence, compared with tbo
action of Congress. It is not only reckon-
ing without its host, but doing its worst lo
defeat tbe calculations of our generals nnd

Let the rebels be first subdued, aud tho
authority of iho federal govern lo on t oa tab'
lisbed in tbo insurgent Slates, and then the
question of preventing a rcoorrouoo of re-
bellion is iu order- Nlost certainly to hold
out boforahand a roost snocping menauro of
confiscation, making no distinction between
leaders nnd tbeir deluded followera, is t
Iho way lo put down tbe rebellion, fur Iht
is no induQDiaent left lo tho rebels lo yield;
tho contrary, every temptation is offered
to them to resist to tho Inst, and this, no
doubt, is Ibo secret of tbo bill now passed.
Tho design is to prevent tbo restoration of
the Uniou. But the spirit of the people is
suddenly aroused by recent ovonts. Let
disloyal members of Congress boware. liven
suob donkeys as Andrew, of Alossacbusotts,
already perceives tbo riaing alorm. It was
but a day or two ago that ho throw cold
water on the call of the govcromeut for ad-
dilional troops. Now ha is ready lo send
it moro men ihou it wants.* Lot Congress
take tho bint. Let tbo Senate postpone the
Confiscation bill to a more convenient aei-
aon, and let it promptly pass tbo Tax bill,
coutuinitig a fow articles of universal con-
sumption, nud not n long list intended to
beget a host of calleotors as deatiuotivo to
tbe people's subatanoo ns an army of lo-
custs. Let Congress do this and go home.
Tbo people nro Biok of its folly and its trea-
son to the canao of tbo nation. There is a.
rooboniug in etoro for every man of the
present Congress as there is fur overy mem-
ber of tho Cabinet. Let tbo administration
be purged, and let tbo onsound part be out
away, lest it taint and corrupt tho whole.
Our only confidence is in tho firmneaa, pat-
riotism nnd commoo sense of Mr. Lincoln,
Heretofore ho bag proved true to the coun-

bo but a holiday pastioio to subjugate the
South. An army of a fow thousand was to
march triumphantly through to N'ew

to be elVectUully sunprcsscd. In tbis w
odly blind spirit lhey foracd on tho fatal
march to Bull Itun. But now, when all

demagogues, ond are lookingfoiiTaid In dis-
may to thu ruin it ia euro to bring upon

fear tbe consequences to themselves, and
seek to involve others in their own orimes.
Thoy talk of tho " honesty," of their previ-
ous rspresontatlons, and intimate that tbe

horrors of civil war when it might bavo been
done at so cheap a price as tbe nbaodou-

From every portiaa of Ibe )Stai'.' -ve hear
of mOTementa preparatory to aeoding dele-
gatOB to tho Democratic Slate ConTontion,
10 meet in this cily on the 41b doy of July
nost. Tho diiy is appropriate^ tho ti:no
aufipioioos for such a pouring out of tbe
old troll tried and timo honored Democracy
as will ever put to rest tho idea that Ihoy
MB ireaiy in wtll deing. Let the word go
forth on llat day Ibat Iho Democratic party
of Ohio is a living and brefllhing instllu-
tion. from whoao words ehall flow tbo living
waters of oonatitulional froedom. Let tbe
old and the young como up in tbe spirit that
animated our fathers, and pronounce once
more tho failh that is in them.

Wo publish in fall Ibe proceedings of the
County Meeting of our neighbors of Lick-
ing. It ia the pioneer meeting and it would
bo woU for political friend and political /oe
to studythese resolutions well, aud compre-
hend them.

Let the Treasury robbers la-l tho 3th
roGolotion and tho members of tbo present
Ohio Legislatore read the Cth one. and all
tho rest will do for general reading.

Wo regret that Mr. Manon did not de-
mand the submission of the ijaestion of an-
nual elections. To that it has got to come,
and it is a great misfortune we are not
there now. The members, instead of find-
ing proy ere, petitions and roaolutiona after
them, would find balhu thicker than
ball stones around their eara. We heliero
these two resolutiooa openly put and fairly
tested, would carry three-fourths of tho
counties in the State.

Mt. Morgan in his Advocalt, says :

"The atU>BdaQce was large and gritilyiBg.
WhiJit the Dumlwr of juung men was as great at

Wo believe this will be the character of
all the Democratic meetings in the State.

^-The JouTTiol complains that wo put
too thick Q coat of politics on tbe recent
Presbyterian General As so mbly. Wo should
bo greatly gratified to be cfinvinced that
tho Journal was right and that we were
wrong. Wo eBsure the Journal we have as
high an estimate of that good old end ven-
otablo church as it enn boTe, oud we would
not take from the highly hODorablu body of
men any of their good character. But we
are in prinoiplo so directly opposed to any
Bucb body iif men, in their divine organiza-
tion, turning to the right or to tbe loft, in
eeoiobiiig after worldly matters, that we use
tho froedom wo enjoy to apeak of it at ail
times and iu all ways, iu no very measured
terms. Dr. BiitcHiMRibGE came here for
other purposes than those of an bumble fol-
lower of his Diviuo Master, and so well did
tbo politicians acent him out, that they
politely invited him to moke a political
spoocb. We still hope that the JoumaVi
defenso of them may do ad much good as it
was intended. Wo are willing to let it go

it that.

Corinth is evacuated and ia occupied by
tho Army of Gen. Halletk. No satislac-
tory accounts are given ua to where Gen.
Beaobegard and bis army have gone, es-
copt that Ihey went South on tho Railroad.
Whether any porUon of bis men have got
to Kichmcud, or whether be is there himself
is not very clear. What Gen. Halleck
will do is not staled. His army ia too large
to movo in a body, without an tuemy of
equal strength is to bo met.

Gen. McClelLan is having a pretty live-
ly time of it in bis approaches to Kicbinond.
On Saturday last, the ndvonce brigade under
Gen. Casey, on tho Richmond side of thfe
Chickabominy, was driven back with greet
slaughter, by brigades from South Carolina.
Virginia and Georgia. Gen. McClellan,
being himself on the spot, brought up ad-
\\ forces, and at tho point of tho bay-
onet drove tbe Confederates back, recover-
ing most of the lost ground. By tbe aid of

as may Buit the purposes of these money
gamblers, hot np lo this time (Tueaday
mcrniDg,) nothing is at nil reliable, except
what comes from Gen. McCleli^M himself.
There is an immense sympathy for Gen.
McClellas— with a brave and daring ene-
my in front, and a cowardly and sneaking
abolition enemy in his rear.filling tbe coun-
try with doubts and prejudices, be has a
severe ordeal to pass through. May that
God who rules the destinies of nations save
him for his country's sake.

Gen. Banes is still nn the Maryland side
of the Potomac ' Ho aucceeded in creating
o great ponio throughout the country, and
that is tbe amojot of his soldiering.

It ia reported by Tdegraph that Front
Royal has been re-taken, by whom it is not
said. If 6t all, probably by a detachment
from Fremont's army which is in that
region, and before wboai. the wires say,
Gen. Jackso.S is retreating.

Gen. Cos is iu the Kanawha Mountains
but what doing late despatches do not in-
form UH. Ho has met with some reverses
and Bome successes, and on tbe whole not
able to advance.

Nothing late from Gen. MonoAN's com-
mand at Cumberland Gap. but as the ad-
vancoB of Frkmost and Co.x did not suc-
ceed, Gen. Mohgam con only bold his po-
sition where he is.

Wo presume the whole programme of the
Department of Tennessee under Gen. Hal-
LECK will be changed, or at least new orders
given and new eipeditions put on foot.

We forbear giving any inklings into tbe
future. If our authorities at Washiogton
are nut prompt aud careful, thoy will find
their control of the nomerous divisions and
broken bands ^of goldiora, getting oat of
their reach and commilllng ucta for which
they will not be willing to assume the ro-
sponaibihty, good as President Ll.VcOLN is
at such business.

Gen. BuTLF.R is cutting a large sworth
at New Orleans. We must confess our as-
tonishment at learning that Gen'l Beaure-
gard's eitract from hie proclamation turns
out to be true. Tbe eiplonation Gen,
Butler and some others put upon it, while
it goes to mitigate the enormity of tho first
imprcsaions. does not entirely eiculpute
him from doing a moat foolJah act, onn that
will bimiah bis name forever in history.
We know Gen'l Bl'tleu well— wo know hia
impetooug temper, but in war a man must
sink temper in courage, prudence and
aigbt. Wo denied positively that he could
be guilty of such an act. We did it
personal friend, we therefore regret the
to see that It had even a semblance of
truth.

such Democrats of easy virtue as tbey can
pick up to head their Uokcts, for the very
eipress purpoee of avoiding Ibis issue with
people. That they intend Ui accom-
plish what Mr. Bbeciieb proposes for oor

prosperity '■ ia well known, bat they wish
I reach it by indirect weans, and tbey are
trying to get Democrats lo aid them in the
deception, and on whom they can throw tho
burden of the fraud.

The people ore well apprised ol this move-
ment, and being caught in tbe trap lost
year, they are " wide awake" lo prevent tho
repetition of the deception.

The people of the West desire tbe South
to como buck into the Union. They desire
it done with tbe least possible eaerifico of
life and property and preserve tbe energies
of tht people. The West is deeply inlcicst,
ed in all her prosperity, in opening inter
coorae with tbe South, as ihe wns our best
customer. What the Abolitionists of tbo
Beechek school call entire aubjugation,
meana eiter mi nation— the e»lermination of
the wbif'S of the South and the freeing of
tho negroes. This and nothing but this is
tbcir desire and purpose.

By accomplishing this object, they are
weU aware in tho East that tho whole agri-
cultural pro due live DC 6» of the West will be at
the mercy of tho East. Our crops, our
cattle, oar hoga, our everything will bo sub-
jeet lo their prices and the railroad monopo-
lies. The great free people of tho West
would, andcr such circumstiinces. take tbe
plu.-:e of the freed davea, and be sobject to

masters of a very ditTerent character, li'j;

not a whit loss remorseless, than Ibcs.' iiL ■

Iroublosomo customer.

When wo become fairly sensible that wo
bave been made to play n falso part in this
Wow England and Now York raid upou
ilavery, when tho mask is fairly torn o£F,
vheu we aeo with our eyes, as plainly aa wo
lave auppoaod wo saw with our reasoning
faculties, that it was not tho Country, tbu
Union, nor the Constitution that was to bii
preserved or restored, but our own subjuga-
tion lo Eastern fanaticism, negro religion,
ad Yankee financial speculation, then we
ill talk to Ibis eastern Church bycrarchy,
I language that will be not only under-
stood but felt.

We thank tho Wojtd for tbia prompt es-
posuro of tbia BEEcnEii lying, as far as tb.--
World felt nt liberty to go. and we regret
it did not go Iho whole 12 propositions while
it was about it.

It is most unfortunate for tbe West, that
it has not one paper in New York City, that
baa the courage to speak upon these groal
financial questions in ber bebalf. Tbeio
could not bo a better newspaper speculatioa
entered Into than that of a Western organ
in New York City.

iVn American proas in Liverpool may bi'

well enough, bot a Western paper in Net

York City, one which would give our pcopk

a hearing there in all our varied interests,

would be an enterprise of no doubtful valoc.

We ore now pbiying at tho tail of the

Wall street money sharks, and every other

money speculation that Ihe ready genius ol

that ptaoo breeds, Our people aubsoribt

and read New York City papera, but they

are not satisfaclory upon these pointj;

thoy give tho prices, but tbey do not lay

whole reaaons and causes of these

prices. Wo might suffer martrydom in all

financial and produotivo interesis and

nr a word from that quarter is spoken in

bebalf, and means shown by which our

Eutfeiinga might be mitigated.

iir mierortonea aro their gain, and nolh-
thoy suppose, will add more to (ieirper-
cnt prosperity, than the dcstruotion ef
>ur .Southern trade, thus rendering us
entirely dependent ou them. They aup-
poae by turning tbe trade of tho great and
growing West into their coffers, thoy will
n moke up fur Ibeir losses in dcE
Iroying the ^oulh and CouverUog it into a
ere negro colony.

These are fearful reflections, yet as ihey
e boldly avowed, impudently demanded,
id aasomed as fixed with an inevitable cer-
tainty, with all the authority of a monarch
upon his throne, we consider it the
bounden duty of overy man worthy of
Wealem citizenship lo meet tbem at the
throahold, and confound tbem before tbey
acquire a magnitude beyond our control.

YOITKO UBN OP FRANKLIN COUNTV,
' "Who bare known mo for years, will you trust

re aomowhat surprised to fiod a
letter of tho following character in the Cin-
innati GazclU. Snob interviews take off a,
ast deal of the horrors of tho war. Wo have
lOver had a doubt from the first, that could
■ur National troubles have been kept in a
Aopo for talk and dJsousaioo, that the batter
feeling and better senae of the nation would
have righted our troubles without n very
Toss of life or treasure, bot when tho
a Bueoeeded in outting off nil inter-
by roads and by water, by mails
and by all other means of intercourse, tbey
all their own way, North and South,
and the real patriotic sentiment was thus
crushed out, aud tho war policy suoooeded.
bos worked thus far, wo all know
by the saddost e.\[)erienco that ever hofoll
great people. The low, petty spites were
impant, and the cruel mooators of human
iture bad but to fan the Hamea of malig-
nant aeotiomilism to drench tho country in
ilood, and put all hope of a National public
lontiment restoring order, further off than
'ver. Letony one now turn back to tho
resolutions of tho 2:M of January, 1861,
passed in this oity by the Democratic State
Convention, aud they will seo the propriety
if their adoption, the value tbey would havo
icon to this people had they been iolloned
o tho letter.

Tboso present hero at that timo know well
tho deep interest we felt in tbo matter, and Co
thiabourwefeelos tbougbour labors at tbat
oment wore tho most valuable of our oxist-
jco, and had all others seen them as wo saw
tUom, we would have been spared this hour
nation's humiliation, before the ni-
tionsof tbo earth. Tho people would have
kept the reins in their own hands, nnd by
forcing n correction of the errors and abuses
of Abolitionism North, wo nbould have so
Btroogtbtnod the Uuiooism of tbo South, on
the true Stato right.i and Constitutional
that a divided nation would havo been
derided by publio Hentimonl, and war — civil
ir— cruel, fatal, terriblo to all parties con-
rnod in it, would havo been impossible.
Now, even now, we pray that it may be
uduotcd on tbo theory of civilized na-
ms, and the spirit of christian charity for
lO another, foroed as wo are by tbo unfor-
tonato circumstances into tho deadly strife.
Hence anything that shows a decent, cheer-
ful, manly inteicourse between the contend-
;n^ -^lartics, gives hopo that all the spirit of
American nobleness of charaoter is not yot
extiuot.

Cowards only ore cruel — cowards only

e jealous, spiteful, malicious, and they

Idom get voluntarily in barm's way. —

Tlio Colonel was anxious to bnow what Cox's
chances for re-election were Irom tbo Columbus

It was pretty bird to lose New Orleans, they
id; and Ben. Butler's eBlabliabipg bis head-

yet, but still all this would ooly give then the en-
ergy of despernliou. They muat fight, because

COL. TJlOSirSON AND CAFT. DIIEUX.

Tbey had of coureo been alopped beyond our
outer pickets, nnd an hour or mora of pleasant
talk filled up'tbe interval, while Beauregard's let-
ter to Hallcck, andThompioa's request for a per-
sonal inlerviow wero taken back lo headquarters,
and answers aivaited. Both tho Colonel and Cap-
tain Drcui made themselves as agreeable as pos-
sibto, and there was a tort of tacit understanding
by which both Bides avoided unpleasant subjeots.
The grounds of complaint tho Soath bad againit
tbo North weruolladed to for a moment, butwith
Col. Thompson's " well, well, wo can't
ithocamolight," tho matter was dropped,

At last Iho oflicer returned from Halleck's

beadquortors. Thu Generol could not consent
that Colonel Thompson should couu within our
lines na requested, and be would be willing to zo-
ciprocato tbe releaaa ol prisoners by returning
them an equal number in exchange. Col, Tomp-
uvidently cbnrgined at being nllowcd to
go no furtbor, but be was too pohlio as well as
too geallemanly to manifest any open dissaliBtac-
tion. Ho must complniu of the United States,
however, for its coune with referoiico to the ex-

prisoners — a sorry hokiog set— wore
marched forward, tbe rebel cavalry turned tbem
over la oar officers, a descriptive roll was pro-
duced, and Blxty-l»'a released prisoners onstvered
very joyfully aa their names were called. Col,
Connell inquired whether Ihoy wished them swore
not to bear nrms'ngainst tbo Confederacy till reg-
of dishonor ularly eiebanged. ''Ob, wo'vo attended to Ihal
olreody, »aid Col. Thoiujaon, "and I guess it i
Deture- pretty well loipressed on their mlods." Souji
alo was produced, and rebels and loyalists
alike drank out ol tbo same tin cup. "If wo
could only toko you np to our camp, wo could
ive you something belter," said ono i

qnizi cat look, ''tvo expect tu entetlain all yon

PARTING WITH llEHELS,
Tbo leave-taking grow protracted. Each one
bad something to say or ask. Honds were shaken
with marked cordiality oil around. "May we
meet again under pleiunnler auspices," said Col.
Thompson, and (bore wasn't oue of tbo party that
did not fervently echo the wish, and iawatdly
hopo that he might somo day have an opportunity
*o do a kindness to tb'is oflicer of Beauregard's

Dg longer. Mounting their horses, tho Colonel

To the Senate and lloitst of KcpmentaliTti :

The insurrection which is yet existing in tho
United State!, and aimed at tho overthrow of thu
Federal Constitutioa and Union, was clandestino-
ly iicepured during lbs winter of 16G0 and 1861,
and assumed on open organiialion in the form of

iroaeoiiahlo Provisional GoveromeoC nt Mont-
gomery, Alabama, ou the 18th day of February,

On tho 12th day ul April, ISGI, tho insurgents
comokittcd tbe Qaurant act of civil war by tbo
bombardment aad capture of Fort Suuipter,
which cut oti the hopes ol immcdiatu concUution.
luimediatcly afterwordsall lbs roads a od avenues
to this city wore obstructed aad tho Capital was
- ', in tho coiiditiou of n seige. The mails ia
iry direction wero Btoppcd, nnd tho lino of tel-
, aph cut olfby tbo Inaurgents, and military nnd
naval forces which bad been cjlled out by the
Government for tho delenco oi Washington,

prevented from reaching the city by orgon-

lod combined IreaBonable resistance in the
SUlo of Maryland. Thero was no adequate and
ofleetive organizatiou for tbo publio defense.
Coogress had indefinitely adjourned and there
was no time to convene them. It became neccs-
aary for me lo choose whether, using only tho ex-
isticg ineans, ngoncios and nrocesees which Coa-
gress bad provided, I should let Iho Government
fall into ruin, or whether, availing myself of the
broadest powers cotiforred by the Constitutioa in
-rases of lueurrection, I nould make on effort to
ave it wilh all its blessings for tbe present age,
ind lor posterity. I therefore summoned my con-
ititntionnl advisers, thu heads of all Iho Depart-
monte, to meet oa Suaday, tbo SOlh day of April,
I6GI, at tbe oHice of tbe Navy Department, and
tbennnd there, with their noaaininus coacurrence,
I directed that na armed revenue cutler should
proceed to sea to all'urd protection to tho coi
ino, specially to tho CaLlornin Irei
en oa their way to this coast. I al
directed the commanderof the navy at Bosloa
purchase or charter and arm as quickly as pas
ble, live steamships, fur purposes of public i
fense, 1 directed Iho commandant of the navy
yard at Philadelphia to purcbasu or charier an
equal number for tbo same purpose. I directed
thu CominandanC at New York to pu

Commander Gillea to pnrehasa or charter

_t that time conlaioed so large a number ol dis-

to provide safety, through tho official agents only,
fur the perlormaoeo uf tbe duties thus confided
to citizens favorably knav,-n for their ability, loy-
alty and patriotism. Tbo aeicrol eiders issued

Tnc Situation.— Gen. Batler publisbea
m tLe SoQiluy papers n, lengthy notice, the
main abject of ivhich is to anaoanco bis in-
[ealiuD io dislribnto among the poor and
destiluto of our city a quantity of beef and
sngar captured by Ibo United Stoteo forces.

ded Kilh proper credentials irill bo entitled

In the oDiciBl DOlico, it is intimated ttiat
tbo poor of Nen Orleans bavo been wIioUj
neglected by the " rebels." We have only
to coll Gen. Butler's attention to tbo fact
Ibat iilDOD Ibe mcnlb of Aaguft tbero bas
been io regular operation iu tbia city, a
"free marliet," supplied oxoluaively froai
loluntary contributions, and which is Etill in
Fiijtonce. Twice a week between I,700and
1,900 persons have bBd their baskola 6lled
nith meat, vegetables, and other articles of
food. It >s eatiroalod that betwoen 5,(XK»
Odd 0,0011 individuBts are thus uortured
through tbo liberality of the city and coun-
try,

A change has taken place in tbe military
(jOTPrnment of our city. General Butler,
in a sDccial notice marked No. 2-1 of gener-
al ordcra, anDOunccH tbo appointinont of
Acting Brigadier General Geo. F. Sheploy,
Colonel ]2tb regiment Maine volnnleera, as
military commandant of New Orleans. It
ia rumored that Gen. Batler contemplates
tstablishinp bis heo'dquartera at some point
ifroas tbe lake. A residence Bt any of the
"atcring places would be far moco agreea-
bie than exposure to the beat, dost, and un-
doanlineas of New Orleans during tho per-
ums months of summer.

Tbo Miseissippl ia eitraordinarily high
uid bas broken thioogb tho levee in various
tliccs, both above und below. Wo have
Dol beard whether tbo crovassu in the Par-
iili of Ibervjllo bos been closed. That at
Story's pkntatioD, in Plaqueminc, ia slopped,
but another has taken place on tbe riebt
bauk of tbe river in the samo parish. We
aclicjpote, however, a speedy fall in the
ptelenfiona of the " Father of Waters."

Ktw Ollr

TUE DEStVOtXSCE OP NewORLEiINS;.—
Tie Bti baH tho following:

" In tho official notice it is iutimaled that
UiB poor of New OrleanB have bcoa wholly
"Elected by the ■ rebels.' Wo bavo only to
ciil Gen. Butler's Bllonlion to the foot that
liDce the month of August thero bas been in
Wpulai operation, in this city, a ' Free Mor-
kel,' supplied eicluslvcly by voluntary cou-
triboiionf, and nbicb is still in existence.
Twice n week belweoQ 1,700 and 1.900 pcr-
iODs have bad their baskets filled with meat,
"gelables and other articles of food. It
a f slimaled that between five nod sis thous-
uiil individuab aro thus nurtured through
tbf Uberalily of tho oily and country.''

Id additiun to this, tho Bte might bnvo
filled attention to olbcr facts— that in Ibe
iWneeof a large adult population, ample
urangtments had been made by the city
'^DDCtl to support tbo families of all such
■ho were destilute — that for this purnos-i
miUioDsof dollars have been subecribed by
ont people during the last twelve months —
liist twenty-four hundred orphan children
Ud now eupporled in tho orphan asylums of
ttii cily— that tho indigent sick ore all ad-
■iiisiiblB lo Ibe Charity Hospital, the most
^iteasivo inatitullon of the kind in tbe
United .States— and, finally, that tbero is not
scommonity in the world where n mora lib-
'"d. generous and cbaritablo feeling per-
videa all clasaes than Ibat of New Orlean*.
fhu prsient suffering In the city is due to
Wo causes : first, Ibo blookadc. or non-in-
'trccatto with tho country, Irom which all
'W provislona have heretofore been drawn,
■""a. setfindly, Iho dernupemenl of our onr-
■enoT, Iho United States commander having,
^ all proclamaliona, warne J tho people of
«•) daagtif 'if receiving the nnly correony

in otronlation. or ralbpr the basis of Ibe
only currency in circulation.

Now Orleans, onliko other large cities.
has Qu snburba. Il is compelled to rely
upon recootc seolions of the country for its
daily food. In limes of the greatest pros-
perity, a wnek's tnterrnption of intercourse
with the interior would prodnce a distress
similar to that whiob now exists. Wo are
hero in a position like that in which Now
England would be plnocd if her JnlercourBO
with the Middio and Western States was
suddenly stopped. With nJI her wealth,
her vast quantity of manufactured goods,
her people would be sorely puziled to ob-
tain Iho chief articles of subsistence. At
this period of the year there are usually a
hundred huge steamboats constantly arriv-
ing and dopurling from our wbnrveB, which
bear every nrtiolo of tbe onortnous produc-
tion of tho valley of Ibe Mississippi. Now
ihoir places aio ooQupied by ships of war
and transports for troops. Not a boat bos
arrived from tbo interior during tbo eight
days tho United States troops bavo occupied
this cily. Under these oiroumstnnccs, it is
narkablo that tbe people hold np as well
tlioy do — that there is not more Buffering
nnd distress than really prevail.

From the DiUa of tho enme date we al:
clip tbe following items :

lOOPS. — Six large square-rigged veseela
?d yesterday from tho sea loaded with
United States troops.

Flag Dovts.— The flog of iho consulate
ot the Netherlands is not flying to-day.

Tbb Stuono Hand.— We learn that tbe

sidenccB of Gen. Twiggs and Col, Adams.

Poytonn street, have both been taken for

icupancy by tbe Federal forces.

Arrested.— Wo learn that W. B. Mun-

ford, who is charged with being conspicuous

tho leader of ibe party that, before the

■ivnl of Gen. Butler, tore down tho Fed-
erafflag which was hoisted on tho Mint by
the forces under Com. Farragut, wos yes-
terday arrested by iho United States iiu-
thoiiiies,

AnHESTS. — We understand that the au-
thorities of the United States, on Sunday,
ested Mr. Esnard. who was formerly a
olerk -l Mr. A, J. Guirot, an officer of Ibe
Mint, together with tbe books of Mr. G.,
and on yesterday tbey arrested Mr. Ber-
nard .'^vegnS, one of Mr. Guirot s ecouritlos

Tbe Ba-Sks aso Gek, Butleii,— The

esidcnls of tbo banks were requested to

cet Gen. Butler yeaterday, and wo learn

I invited them to return the specie which
they had sent out of the oity to their vaults,
ossoring them be would not aeixe nor inter-
fere with it. Wo did not ascertain the de-
termination of tho prosidcuts, but suppose
tbospecio lo ho beyond thiir reach.

Act, Brig. Gen. Geo. T. Shopley, Colonel
of tho l',2lb regiment of Maiao volunteers,
has been appointed by General Butler, mil-
itary cooimundcr of Now Orleans. We are
indebted to tbe Picayune for the iuformotion
that Gen. BoUer will moko his headquarters
OD tbe sea coast. Col. Shepley is a son uf
Judpe Sbppley, formely Judge of the Su-

preme Court tif Maine, and once a Senator

Tlie American Tax BUI.

The newspapers produce tho list of arti-
cles taxable under this bill. Thoy fill eight
columns of a type go small that wo cannot
represent it. and roughly numboredthey ap-
pear to amonnt to something more than l.OtrO
classes. Here is a. now atniosphore of ta."i-
alion suddenly created for the breathing of
a people who were first moulded into a na-
tion by tho fiery indignation induced by a
threa-ponny tea tos. When wo look upon
those columns of alphabetical taxes thehrat
impulse is to luugh. It looks like a reduc-
lio ad ahsurdiim. Tho Americans are food
of heavy voluminous practical jokes, and
this looks very much like one of them. If
this mo.squito cloud of taxation should
settle on the SUtes of tbe North il w'
more efi'ectivo than any Fusilivo Slave
in preventing any one, black or while, from
crossing tho border. Society
ist under such an infliction. A man may
bear a great deal of toxation prudently im-

Sosed, but he cannot endure it when ubtru.
ing into every act of his daily life. It if
like grit sprinkled by handfulls upon a picco
of working machinery ; no single particle
may be largo enough to throw Ibe mi
ry out of gear, but the constant fricli
wear it to n stand etill. One tenth of these
taxes would bring any American
ty to tho resistUDCo point In a month,
of them uiay. no doubt, be collected.

l\lany of tho stamp duties are vo ,
sonable imposts upon a people settling about
to adapt themselves to a new atmosphere of
taxation. We should he very sanguine, by
moderate means, of getting ten millions a
year out of a sobome of taxation fitted to
the Federal States. Tbe sum couldbo rais-
ed without too great a violence upon the
hahils of the people. But tbis schemi
r bo intended to bo carried out.

won the prize ftom genius in tiio games ;

iriien the reaioniug of Socrates failed. It
!>Te times triamphed over tho hymns and

it drew out in prodigal profusion the troas-

blow of death, when tbo daughter of a sav-
age chief interceded for a stranger. It ob-
tained protectiou from tho robber for an

Foi, when tho Duohcss of Devonshire
reaohod tho hustings. Yet this female beau-
ty is as common as sight. It is peculiar
to no oalion. and is claimed by no class.
It glows in tbe goddess, and in tbe peasant
girl, and in thp Indian squaw. It reigns in
tbe parlor, in tbe pantry, and in tbe fish
market. It drinks neotar on Olympus,
aohnapps iu Hollaud, and wine in Castile;
and signs the lernpernuce pledga iu Kennet
Square. It dances on tho sloge, prays in
tho church, swears on the wharf, and smokes
in Matamoras. It sings like n nightingale,
and acreams like a peacock. It scolds on

ADAiTcctlnBrScene at "Old Bailey.'

By recent English papers wo ore placed it
possession of tho patticalars of an effecting
scene that transpired at a late trial at Olc
Bailey. Lord Chief Justice Tindalo preaid.
ing. It is u sad picture of real life, but tho
Ending of tbe jury in the case gives evi-
dence that there are yet some noble heatta
in calloused Britain. Tho tale, at """' ="
sad and pleasing, is thus related t

George Hammond, a portrait painter, was
placed at tho bar, to bo tried on an indict-
ment found against himself by tbe Grand
Jury, for tbe wilful murder, with malice
aforethought, of George Baldwin, a rope-
dancer and mountebank. The prisoner was
man of medium height, hut slender form,
lis eyes were blue and mild. His whole
bearing gave evidence oE subdued sadness
and melancholy resignation. He was -II
years of age, bad a soft voice, and his ap.
~)earaoco and manner bore etidenco of bis
loing a man of dislinguisbed education, in
spite of the poverty of his dress.

On being called out to plead, tho prisoner
admitted that he did kill Baldwin, and he
deplored the not, adding, howover, that on
hia soul and eonsoienco, he did not believe
himself guilty. Thereupon a jury was im-
pannolea to try the prisoner. The indict-
ment was then read to tho jury, and tbe aot
of killing being admitted, the Government
rested their case, and tbe prisoner was call
ed upon for his defense.

The prisoner then addressed himself to
the Court and Jury :

My lord,'' said he, ■' my juslification is
to be found iu the recital of tbe facts. Three
years ago I lost a daughter, then four years
of age, tho sole memorial of a beloved wife,
whom it had pleased God to recall to him-
self. I lost Tier but I did not see her die.
3he disappeared — she was stolon from mo.
Sho was n oharming child, and but her I had
nobody in the world to love mo. Gentle-
men, what I have suffered cannot bo des-
cribed; you cannot comprehend it. I had
ipendeil in odvertising and fruitless aearoh-
s, everything I possessed — furniture, pic-
ures, even to my clothes. All have been
old. For three years on foot I hod been
seeking for my child iu all the cities and all
villages in three kingdoms. As soon us by
painting portraits I hud succeeded in gaming
a little money. I returned to London to com-
mence my advertisements in the newspapers.
At length, on Friday, tho 14th of April last, I
crossed tbe Smitbfield cattle market. In
the center of tbe morkot a troop of moun-
tebanks were performing their feats. Among
them a obildwas turning on its head support-
halberd, A ray from the soul of its
mother must have penetrated my own, for
to have recogniied my child iu that con-
Da. It was my poor child. Her mother
.Id perhaps havo precipitated herself tO'
ward her, and locked herself in her arms,
ir me. a voil passed over my eyes. I
' not bow it was — I, habitually gentle,
to weakness, seized him by the clothes
sed him in tbo air, then dashed him to
the grounil — then again ; he was dead. Af-
terward I repented what I bad donp. ,M
the moment I regretted that I was able to
kill but ono."

d Chief-Justice Tindale— "' These are

not Christian sentiments. How can you

poot tho Court and jury to look with favor

ou your defense, or Goil to pardon you. if

you cannot forgive."

Prisoner — " I know, my lord, what will
bo your judgment, and that of the jury;
but God bas pardoned me : I fool it in my
heart. You know not, I knew not then, tbe
whole Client of tho evil that man had done.
1 en some compassionate people brought
my daughter iu prison, she was no longer
my child; she was no longer puro and an-
gelio 03 formerly ; she was corrupt, body
and sou! — her manner, her language, in-
famous, like those with whom she had bceu
living. I did not recognise her myself. Do
you comprehend now T Thot man had rob-
bed me of the love and soul of my child.
Anjl I— I havo killed him but onco."

nreman — "My lord, we have agreed on

tbo case, the jury retired, and

The Civil Power.

Thoro hax he-^a a atudied purpose ever
Binco Prpsiaont LiSCOLS issued Lis procltt-
. cQQtioQ calling for 75.000 soldiers to protect
Washiue"**" City, to suhstilute thoidoaof
miliUry rulo for thot of Iho civil power.

Tho cry was first "lot thomgo" — ■' no-
body butt "—" they will ask to oome back
into the Union before we osk Ihem." ■^■C.
io. These deoinretioas cuine from the
Itepublioan leaders, and many of tlieir lead-
ing preHsea openly, and vory boldly, advocat-
GJ the do 0 trine of "lot Ihom go." This
poboy contiQued until April, 1861. and the
first thing that ga.ve the people information
nas the fitting out ot a Urgo naval oiptdi-
tionatNow York to auccor Fort Sumter,
and, as said by thoao who pretended lo kooiv,
to bnrn Charleston.

From this grew tbe firing into Fott Sum-
Iflr bj tho Confodoratea, while the vesBols
sent from New York lay off tlie harbor, and
never mado an eflort to assist tho Fort, uor
bam Charleston either. But ire at onoe
broke into a flanio of civil mir- and tho rest
is well known. Groat armies wetL- raised,
and everything at once went in on a " war
neceasily." Now, if by tbe inauguration of
war. Ibe civil power cooae?. then wars are
not only more iniquitous, but more to be
droadad than any one heretofore ever Bup-
posed. It is a now feature in war which the
books of history uor law ever printed, and
until 18151, was never hoard of.

Pure military governments are such in
peace as well as in war — they do not chnugo.
A govemmont is no govprnment at all which
does not answer for peace as well as war. If
they change by war, then any scoundrel who
ohoasea to seize upon Iho liberties of the
people, baa only to pick a ijuatrel with
somebody, declare war. cffid convert all

wo might oipect our support. Wc should
first go to tho fanatical preachers, it is tru
for in all ngcs of tbo world they hare be(
Ihe first to ho won over ; but they are only
portion of their class or profession — a largo
portion, it may bo; but who next' Our
people may be good at following their relig-
ious iostcuctors, but not to the destruction
o[ themselves, knowingly, avoivedly. Tho

numerous, but when sifted dowj
ItgitimatD object of their Icadors, Garki-
Ros, Phillips, Sdusbr, Giddinos. Love-
101, &c.. &o., they will loose a vast amount
«f tba numbers now actiog with thum, aa
the nepublican, or "Union." as they now
call their party organiiatioD.

Will they look to the army foi' a Gnat
"ficiirity of (heir cherished hopes ? That
Army, unfortonately for them, is mode up of
the wrong material from which lo draw eucb
a hope. We eay then atl the labor used to
sink the civil in tbe military power, ia labor
lost— because tho people have left theto, yet,
in tbo non-BBCeding States, tho right of tho
M{ot-bos.

Even where the military power, in its
vitioua shapes attempt to control, they do
it under tho plea that it is to austniu the
CoDslitutioa and the laws. This is the only
plea, the onlyjustiCoation. But no other
dare be made. Even this milLlary power
>Tield«d in various ways, and at various
point9, is ^object to tho civil power at
VVoabington. Tho President, by tho Con-
Htitutioc, is mado to aoc in a double capaoity.
bat it ia as much to secure tbo ascendency
ef tbo civil power ovf.r the military, na it is
to direct tbw Army in a military sensi). yet
uot a member ot his Cabinet, n civil officer
"i any kiod. nor Congress itself is any part
of the military establishment. Tlioy are

acre ad minis tratora of tbo law, Tho
Secretary of War has no power outsido of
tbo law which directs bis Department, ex-
cept to carry outtbo orders of tboPrcaideut.
Tbe civil power is therefore always per-
ot in itself, and tbe military power sub-
servient to tbe civil nutbDrities, and
wholly di.itinct. The truth is. the military
r ia really to sustain the civil, not to
destroy it. It is to aid not control it, and
hence the President, who is chief of tbo
vil authority, is also chief cE tho military.
I prevent them coming in conflict, which
ould bo the case were tbcy subject to dif-
ferent heads.

If the President ahould attempt to so
order tho military power as tocrusbor con-
ol tbo civil, then bo ia confronted with tlio
ivil Departments, and subjects blmaolf to
npeaohnienlfor any violation of tbe oiril di-
vision of the Government. If tbey all unito
together for tho overthrow of tbe civil di-
1 then thoy become usurpers and con-
spii-ators again at tbo liberty of tho oitiaoD
whose rightfl are invaded, and revolution or
despotism follows as a matter of course.
Tho idea that the army is strengtbenod
id moro effective in the field when tho
oivil power is destroyed, tbun when it is in
full vigor, is, therefore, one of tbo shallow
artificoa of designing men. It gives no
itrenstb nOr sinews to the arm nor courago
o Iho heart, but derogates from both. Tho
testimony of oges give tbo high spirit and
desperate courage to the free and not to tbo
— to tho soldier who is himself a part
and parcel of tbo nation's mental power as
IS tbo pbyaioal, and not a mere ma-
chine to bo thrown aside as useless after
tbe war is over.

One error and absurdity therefore begets
another, until the whole fabric becomes a
pile of ruins, and tbe dissevered pieces bo-
impoasible of ro-nnion. VVit\i this
plain statement of facts, any one can see
tbo great wrong of diverting oar eyes from
ivil dopartnieuts of Goveranient by thn
glare of tbo nulilAcy. It would be just as
insible to throw down tho reins when your
am became disorderly, and 6ei;B the sides
of your wagon and watoL tho turning of tho
wheels, as lo let pass with indifference tbe
vil power of your government to gaze on
0 military-
One year ago this was tho policy in Ohio,
and thousands were caught in the not so
btlely set for them. Our proteslationa
ily amounted lo subjecting oursolf to
0 ohargo of infidelity Co the "Union,"
when in fact, and now who does not Bee it,
tbe inSdelity was on tbe ctber tide-
war wna entirely now to our people, in
fact, war at all was new to moat of us, and
the public niiud was not prepared for audi
tale of things. Ouo year, however, has
igbt us a grfat deal. We arc apt schol-

and well.

wish to impress upon our readers and they
upon their neighbors tbe grtat duty they
■o themselves and posterity, in tho crisis
rough which the only really free Govern-
ment on earlh is passing. The vigilance,
elion and courogo necessary to per-
form their just part in tbe labor arn of Door
dinary character, and the just labori of
day now, may save youra of future
tnrmoil, disorder, civil wars and tain. —
JiertiOD, no ordinary ccpenditure of
lime and money, trifling each, but great
'a tbe aggregate, should prevent a thorough
lamination into each man's duly, and tho
scattering of truths iu all directions, that
Iho public mind may be disabused from the
which float around under a ayatematic
organization, covering every foot of popu-
latcd sail, thick as tbe lico and Eroga^iu
Egypt.

The work is not light, but it ia a glorious
10— one imposed upon us by our fathers
bo gave us freedom, nud this labor is tho
penalty we pay for that freedom. The
price paid for liberty is vigilance, eternal,
everla-sling vigilance. Tho ohriatian com-
1 is "watch and pray without ceas-
ing," as the penalty tbe christian pays for
in God. Let us, then, be prepared to
keep tbe conimandment;.

While our attentions
ir, as though wo wo

those who kept tolling u

rcction and u

re directed lo the
all commauders,
.0 look in that di-
id tho oivil part of tho
made out to steal millions of
our money and retire loaded with wealth.
If they cheat us again in this way it will be
faulla. It is true, the programme
of I8CI is changed for 1862. From the
and tho "lastdoUar and tbe last man,"
now, " freo tbo negro to save tbo coun-
try," This is not quite so gliilcring a
the glories of Ihi
battle-field. It is also a civil or political
id not a military question. It comes a
ice directly into tho polilioul arena, and i
a question for the civil departments of Gov
alone, and will receive the univer
sal ottention of every free white uian in tbo
land.

Wo liavo shown by the above that while
s politicians or citleens. wc have no oontrol
ver the nioroment of the Army — that
those in autliority, holding tbe civil ofGi
aro responsible for tho direction gfvea
the war, its purposes, its extent, its di.
tion aud its character. Tbe Army rccoi
ltd direction by tbe oivil power through the
President, ond its purpose ia not to make
lawaor governments but to fight the battle;
.when tho battles aro fought tbe aoldier'a
duty censes. Bnttho civil power.doriving its
itborily through the Constitution and laws
of tho country, and tbo officers holding
tbeir places directly from the siifragts of
the PEOPLE— tbo people, therefore,
como wholly responsible, 03 the eovorelgns
r tho country, fur tbe direction givea to thi
ivil ad mini strati on, and indirectly to tbi
military.

Wo impress this upon the people, tho
legal voters of tho State?, made such legal
votera by .Slate laws and no other, to
show tho part they bavo to bt^ar iu this
lerriblo conflict— which involves not only
life and property, bat the elective frnnobise
itself— coanting Constitution and oil. Wo

Goveruor Stanley and the Np^to
Schools or North Carolina.

Ir. Stanley, lately appointed MilKary
'crnorof North Carolina, by President
Lincoln-, on arriving at his post of duly,
found a sot of Abolition Yankees and a fel-
low by tho name of Uelpeb. a brother of
tbor of the infamous book well known
to tho public, teaching negro aobools and
going it on tho principle of tho irrepressible
idea.

Governor STAiiLBir being a. native of that

ate, though recently of California, be-
hoving that the object of tbo Government

IS to reconcile tho people of that Stale.

d bring them back into tbo Union, com-

?nced by oipelling these Abolilion med-
dlers. This of course produced a great
hubbub ut Washinglou, among the negro
guardiaua in Congress, aad at oucn resolu-
ons were introduced calling for ioforma-
ou. Now it is well known that half the
hito children in tbe North will have lo go
uneducated, from Ibe inability of parents to
ibool them, owing to the enormous debts
put upon them by this very Congress and
th(! public thieves who have been atealing
tbo money. But this these negro worship-
er think of, nor care for, because
they aro white children.

Wo publish below tbo letter of Hklit.r
Governor Staslbt. Gov, SrASLtVs
brief letter of eipulsion, and the letter of
iostructions from the War Department, on
bis appointment. These instructions ap-
o bo very general and aro the samo as
lo Governor Johnson, of Tennessee.
They were either intended never to amount
or wore intended far a very wide
discretion; but in the case of Governor
Staslbv, it would appear from tbo e:toito-
the Abolition Congress, that those
disorotionary measures were only inl^inded
to bo used against w^.ile people .'

word is said about the " booty and
beauty " orders of General BuTi.nri In Now
Orleans, by this degenerate Congress, which
baa iiL-come a by-word and reproach to the
whole land, as that bad reference to white
women only— but to carry out the old
laws of North Carolina, ia regard lo negro
schools — oh I that was a monstrous affair.

One good thing has grown out of this af-
fair, and it may lead to new light in regula-
ting military Governors, if this is to become
a fintare in our system. It has brought Out
Mr. Sukhbh. in the United Slates Senate,
to donouuca tho authority to make euoh
military nppoiutmenls. He gives it as his
opinion that Buch appointments aro uncon-
siiiatior.at. Had it not been for tho action
of Governor Stanley in this negro busi-
nesB, we never should have been oolighten-
ed by Sumher on that branch of tbe notioo
of Iho Government '

Tbe.lalest report by telegraph is, that
Stanley is to be recalled and tho ia
made witb tbo people of North Caroli
not as to Union or di.sunion, but on tbo pi
Abolition theory. This will drive from tho
anpportof tbo Government whatever U[
sentiment thoro was in that State. Th;
one [oay to realare the Government, bring
back tbe States and close this destructii
war. In our opinion such conduct will be
much more Lkely lo coniir.ne the irar li?
tij v<ars, that cluie it in 1862,,'

Some one who evidently does not belong

better in bis new calling than ho did in his
old one of electioneering for Wade as

inissourl Stale Convenlion.

Tho State Convention that was elected a
year ago, has been called together by Gov,
GAMnLE, to act as u Slate Legislature in the
absence of that body. 'The pnrposo wna lo
■ovide laws for tho oleotion of Stnto officers,
id district tho Stale for Congress. &c.
Speaking of this Convention tho St.
Louis RcpuUican says :
., "yf^ ^*' fi'°^ '° ■*" ""at Ihoru is a probabUity
that tho Coovention will agrco to tba paitjionc-
ment ol all electioni ia Ibis Stilo unld a lutaro
day— perhaps Auguat of next year It ia tho
>iMt thing which can bo done in Ihe prt.iaent ecn-
liliooof (ho public mind. Tho Convention will
ODiult tbo pubbc will and the public aafuly, by
onliaaing la ofBco Ibe pretonl atalo flffioers,
vitb power lo continue ia oSlco or appomt sub-
irdinato offieers. It caa divide the Stale into
Coagressional Dislrict?. fixing tho tuna of elec-
tion, or, if Cnngreaa should determiae opon a
uniform day for these elecBooa throoshout aM
tho Slates— nejLl November is propoaed by tbe
low— then wo will bo ready to go rolo lbs elec-
tion, as Iho war will beover long beforw that time.
As to a meeting of tbo Legislature, that cut be
postponed for a year longer, for iho cur^e ot Ihe
country baa been loo much legislation."

The State of Missouri is iu an nuomalons
position certainly, and we cannot sec the
propriety of holding elections if the candi-
dates are treated as Judgo Bmou was tho
other day. If men can neither speak nor
except under diotation, otaotioBB in
tbe United Slotes would be a, greater farce
than Tfc have ever understood those in
ranee to bo under Louis Napoleok.
Detler. far better bavo no eleotionB, on'
is these elections con be held in ocoord-
ice with tbo freodom of speech and of
linion. If Missouri is in a condition that
neither of these can be permitted, then eho
light just as well remain in tlatu quo, un-
I such time as men caa bo permitted t*
iscuss public moasnro, and role without
le fear of jails and bastiles.
Wo hoped, and stiU hope, that tho Btnte
of public feeling there, ia equal to tho peace-
able cxerciso of the okotivo fronohiae.
Where peaco and order is so desirable oa rt
must he in Missouri, we should regret lo
believe that the elements of contention are
so unsettled us to justify tho suspension of
tbe elective franchise, and Iho freedom of
discussion of nil public matters.

Tho remarks imputed to Judge BisoH,
one of the Urlion candidates for Governor,
who was arrested a. few doya ago for
treason, are tbat be eaid that Mr. Chase
could not print paper fast enough to pay
the eipensesof tbo war in Missouri.

This would depend on thoamonntond the
aamber of printing presses employed ia the
work. If Jndge BmoH meont that tho
work wa» to be done on an old-fashioned
band-press, at five dollars a pull, tfaoa we
are inclined lo think ourself tbat the credit-
ors would have lo wait o good while for
their pay. But wo learn that Mr. Chabe
runs several of Hoe's fast cylinder presses,
aad can do a mighty sight of work in a
short time, and wo impute tho error made
by tbe Judge to Iho fact tbat he L'ves a
great way " out West."

We were congratnlatiog ourself on the
fact that, so far aa Missouri was conoemcd,
this most unnatural war was over, and that
hence and forever s bo might bo coasidcrcd
relieved from the dangers and trials of in-
ine commotions; but really the aigns
nufavorable at present, and the end
t be far off yet.

; is time, ijuite licae, that good, patriotic
I. everywhere were atepping forward with
propositions to arrest farther local and civH
dissensions, or, our word for it, all the print-
ing presses in the Universe will not bo able,
by another year or two, to print momy foat
enough to pay tho losses and eipenseti of
such contentions, whJchanybody will take ia
payment of debts, or in oiobnnge of prop-
erty or goods.

It requires no great foresight to see tbia,
and it is scarcely worth whilo to attempt, by
tbe ephemeral power of civil or military

hat our public debt is cow equal lo ooe-twetltb

A Sad Case,

war. but in Septembnr, Mt it a duty to
leave or go intfl Iho Sonthem army. He
fin»lV conoloded to do tho latter, and was
taken prijoner nt Island No, 10. and sent
to Cany) Butler, near Springfield, IIUuoLh.

Being a Ncrlhem maa. and his father
liTiogiierc, bo coaoluded to tako tho oath
of allegiance and come lo Ohio. But titoo
passed, and baviog expressed bis views lo
his comrades io prison, it resalt^ in a pei-
BOnat altoroation irith oue of the prisoners,
a fight ensced, and young Dawsoh was
killed.

The priMCroer iroa arrested, pot into Iho
jail c-f the coonly. and tried at tho reoent

War News vf the Wccb-

Wo have volnmes of news afloat in the
newspapers, but it ia not only unofficial but
Dp with auch different co^oringJ. that nc
can tell whioh is tioo or which false—
probably all more or less false in the fol.rj.
Oue thing is certain, however, and that la
cded on all hands that the battle on tbo
Chicfenhomny, near Richmond, on tho Ist
nnd iiod insl., was disperatelj severe— eoa-
le^ted with great bravery on both sides.
Though the corre«powIent of tho New York
Tribune gives a sad picture of tbo cowardice
of those under Gen. Casev. but aa wo have
long learned to doubt the truth of anything
(bi. faoalicol Idiots, wbo write foe that peper.
^aJ, we give no credence to tbeir assertions.
Tlu. Telegraph Reports ore not mneh bet-
Ipr, and so nonfueed and miied op that it la
difncult to understand them. Even Gen.
McCUKLLAH complains that his brief Tel-
egrnfiWo Reports have be'.n rhanged und
garbled.

Judging, as wo have judged o^er and
similar oaaen, it would not bo for out of tbe
way to say that each army went out of that
battle with 10,009 less efficient men than they
wont into it. Peibaps one-half more then
ll,ai— 7 or e,000 on a 6>do bting kill'.'a -ir
wounded. Ono at two of onr itegiments.

\a Infamoas Proceeding.

Tho Ohio Slain Journal, goaded by its

political misfortunes in this region, has left

itone unturned or lie uninvented, to oronto

a little capital to improve its political for-

's. Having been one of tho chief north-

inftrumonis in the career of aboliUon-

to create rebellion in the South, and a

sectional civil war, it would, for tbo some

I purpoaes, instigate civil commotion at

Instead of stepping forward in n manly
anner to do a oitiaen cf Colnmbna justice,
1 whom it had cast 'jnjust imputations, it,
I far us it is able, endorses tho Wheeling
article in regard to " contraband goods-'.' —
if it is contraband to send olothing,
to prisoners, then our own government
illy, for it favored, encouraged and bc-
the agent to send gooda .So-ath to our
soldiers while prisoners thei'>. Our
government in fact, wo believe, innogarated
tbe praotice,

Nowif it was right, aa it sorely wna, for our
governmont to send orliolea of necessity
South to ouraoldiers in prison, sanotionod
aasisted by tho Confederate authorities, what
must be thought of our authorities North,
wbcntbeyaeizepropergoodsaenttoprisoners
hero, and withhold them " oa contraband,
or for any other reason 1

Our government at Washington should
look after tho petty acia of their officials at
Wheeling, Their conduct is a disgrace
tbe government, and men of more decency
and prudence should bo put in resp'
posts of that nature.

Our governments, Federal and State, have
maoifeated a desire to treat prisoners hu
manely and as becomes a powerful and civ,
ili;ed nation, and they should aeo that Ibeii
purpose is not thwarted by petty officials,—
IS tho instances of ill treatment of our sol-
diers taken priaoao-'s by tho South, demand!
retalistion, it is far our government, not for
Provost Marshals, lt others, to determine
upon the estent, mode and manner of retel-

This bo:, we leom. was sent to the Ei-
press offico by a lady of Wheeling, an ac'
qoaintonce of Mrs. Tburua:i.

What right has Iho Provost Marshal
(who is he?) to eei;o goods directed from
Wheeling lo Columbus? Are both cities
not in the United Slates ? Can neither
goods nor newspapers bo transmitted through
the regular linos of commnnicotion any
longer, .u :hi NutlK, without interruption
and being sabjeot to seizure and detention ?
Oris iVheding an esf^oiully "free city,"
witb immunities granted to impose upon
every other city and every oitizen who poas-
ea through it, or deals there from this aido
of the river? If Wheeling is going lo set
up for itself, and piny tyrant over theooan-
try generally, it is well enough for that fact
to be known,

Hut wo bebeve tliut the statement that
the I'rovcst Marshal stopped the goods is
false, for tbo lady who shipped tho clothing
writes tbat she countermanded tbe shipment
herself, on looming that the clothing was
not, at this time, needed at tbe prison.

There has been a etiong mispicion for
somo time, that even tbe Post Master of that
"ancient place,'' has takes open himself
to stop newspapers from Ohio paasing his
office, if i!B did not like ll.tir poiilical com-
pitxion. Wo hope Post Moster Gen. Blair
nil! send an Agent cf his Department there
to look into the matter. If not trno, all
right, but if it is trao, the eoonor it ia look-
ed into the better. Wo have had enough
of these subordinates assuming to bePrcsi-
dtnU.

If this practice of casting saspioion of
secession or disloyalty npon political oppo-
nents for mere party spite, and their prop-
erty seized " on suipicion " — the mere sua-
piclon of willful liars, such as wo have
proved tho Ohio Stale Jc-^rnal to be when it
basely insinuated that arms bad been fumif^h-
cd to tbe prisoners at Camp Chose, then no
mania safe, and we bave no longer any Gov-
ernment which any white man ia bound lo
reaped.

If Judge ThusmA!4 is a itctauonUi, tben
three- four the of onr army fighting our bat-
tles aro BBCeesionists, and n very large ma-
jority of the people in this region of Ohio
are seceasicaists. If all these are facts,
then it is time tbe Government waa making
peace with its '^wn people. But this kind
of slang has loat all its terror, and tbo peo-
ple so well understand it, that the aboli-
tionista are becoming rather careful how
they use the pbrases to men's faces of late.

Tho following conips to us post marked at
an interior post office in Tunneasco. Our
fair oorroapondont, whoever sbo is, ia on-
titled (o be heard. Everybody is entitled
(o bo heard iu this lund of "froo diaousB-
ion," when that desire is for tbo "' cessation
of blood." Oh! that our countrymen North
and South, oould coioe to a bearing, and
□nite onco more in staying tho hand of des-
aolation. But will they do it ! How many
can be found who could ngreo to luy down
tbcir pergonal likes imd dislikes, tboir anabi-
tioBiaod their deairo to rule for self intereat?
How many in tho South? Hon many in
tho North?

Wo have labored. God only knows bow
ainooroly. to avoid this strife. When its
aioidoiice bccamo impossible, we then plead
on all occasions, that it might be tempered
mitb manly warfare, that nil the rules nnd
articles of civilized strife uiJijht be observ-
ed with tlio utmost soropulonsnesSi and
novor forgetting that wo were once u hrotU-
cihood of freemen, and might bo aguiu,

The Union One and Indlvl^lblf.

Tho Union is tho nation. Tho country for
'hich we battle is tbo Union mode by tbe
itbere, on principles which, if rightly ap-
preciated by the people, would make it as
permnnent iu duraliou as the world. If tbo
Pro over to-day, we should still havo
body pelilio tbe elements of diicord,
because we should havo onomiea of that
a among us. In seeking for n perma-
establishment of uaity ond harmony,
lust aeok to convert, or eradicate the
who are opposed In pVinoiple to that
a. It ia a crand error to imagine that
emovat of slavery will remove all op-
position to tho Union.

Tha only basis on which men oan unite
a government, Is tho basis of mutual in-
restand mutual yielding. The eame is
true ot States, eminently true of a large
number of Stotos banding together tn form
-u greatnation. Tho enmity totho Union
not local. It exists at tho North and at
tha South. If nny ouo doubts that North-
abolitionism is Ihe ally of Southern so-
iionism, a. study of history will remove
Iho doubt and stomp thetruth of tbe allinaoo
- - au everlasting tact. It is true that some
in. good men, too, forgetting in the fierce
citement of tbe present tho whole history
of tho progress, stop by step, which brought
■■- into tho trouble, are disposed to look
.th leniency on tho Northern disunlouists
long us, bopauao they so earnestly ad'
calo tho war against tho Southern disunii
i- But we have said, and we repeat that
radical abolitionist is in favor of o wt
lor (he old Union, and no candid abolitiouii
will be fouud today who denies that he
opposed to n restoration of the Union as
vos. We nro Jiviuc in tbe midst of n tri-
ingular ivar. SoutliorR rebellion attack:
be Coostitudon and mokes war ou its do
feiidor^. Northern Union men, by hundreds
of thousands, rise to tho defense of the
Conalitulion, the old instrument of sanctified
memory and world-wide influence for good,
while a third party, professing to ha foru
Uniuu, are acting with the steadfast purpose
agaiust Iho American Union, and, when
driven to tho wnll openly confess that they
regard the Union with tha abborreuoo of n
'■Roman oricninal chained to a loatbi
corpiie," aud that tboy uphold the war only
because they hope to have it efi'eot "what
the Constitution failed to accomplLsh." We
do not u=e our owu phrases. Wo but quote
from tho leaders of political radicalism.
Wo invito any American who has at heart
(ho true interests of the Union, to recall
a few facts in the past, which urc
being furgotlen. We shall sluto nothing
that will bo disputed by oven the radical
men of the day.

Tho theory ot radical abolitionism as pro-
pounded by its moat eminent loaders wat
this, that tho Constitution of the Unitei]
States was a sinful aud therefore a detestu..
hie instrumont. They demanded tho eiodui
ef the slave over the ruins of the American
Jnion. They avowed hostility to the Con.
titution in all their meetings and ell Iheii
documents. The object of their oxurllont
being tbe ahulitiou of slavery, they recog-
oized no human law, treaty or compact ai
of suffieieut force to stand iu the way of
fffcting that result. Part of the radical
ibulitiuuists were opposed ^
luolion of tbe aubji ot info
others favored the idea. Tbe

iian of tbe ranks, and the formation
abolilion political party. By gradual
rtain progress, the two elcmeuti; vir.
tuujty remitted, and nidical uholitionials be-
came politicians.

For ten years thty bave continued theii
disunion labors as paLiIicians. Thuy pub
lisked their papers and documents with the
memorable words. "The CoDStitotioa is a
league with death and a covenant with hell,"
They abused and vilified thu memory of tho
fathers. We go back to one abolition meet-
ing in Massacbuselts as a specimen of hun-
dred* that were held throughout (he country.
A speuker named Foster, thus argued

"Was it not thattba only hope fur the since was

In juBtico to the 71st, it is the duty of its
(illicprs 10 nioto a statement of its transnc-
tlons on the meinorablo Sunday. April Glh,
I6C2, nhon it is said to have disgraced Ohio,

The scoond brigade, Sherman's divieioDi
consisted of tho ,'iSth Illinois, tbo 54th (Zou-
ai»,) and 71st Ohio, commaiiilcd by Colonel
Sluut of tbo D.'itb Illinois ; uocordlng lo the
atrango accident (.') that during the wholo
iTor bas assigned Ohio regimenis to the
.:aniiaand of Indiana or Illinois Gonerala,
although Obio bos nearly n.s many rogi-
ments as both those States put together, and
gndcr which arrangement oil Iho good fight-
ing has bcoo done by tboso States, and all
misoonduot is chargeable to Ohio — nt least
^1 it appears from tho way they talk.

Wo bad been Btationed to cunrdlhe cross-
Jig of Lick Creek, on the Ilamburg road,
the rc£l of the divl^on being about Shilob
Church. 11 milo or more lo our right. Pren-
'J<h' divi-ioD had afterword moved belneeti
OS and the lemainder of tho division.

Wo had timely notico in tho morning
of tho presenoo of tbo enemy, and, in tbo
iibienoo of orders, took position near the
ford, about a half milo east of our camps ;
after jjevcrat cbangos in our position, the
71et was finally located on tho rood ta the
left of Iho camps of the 55tb Illinois, and
tho albur rogimenta about a third of a, mile
to our lofi. Jq our front was an open field
thrf e or fonr hundred yards wide, tunning
lo tlie creek. Presently \7o could see the
■^aerny coming into position on tho olhei
^ide, regiment after regiment filing by. nud
!h«n a battery planted directly iu front of
us on tho E4)Uth bank of the creek. Col.
!>lQart passing just then, I aaid-to him that
we were going to be attacked in superior
force, and tbut wo were on ground that
coulii not bo held, for we bad no cover whot-
over, and no orlillery to reply to iheiis. —
After a moment's convorsatiou, ro which no
(-ipress i>rJer was given, he rode off to join
Ibo other regimeiiiB. Presently tho uno-
my'a artillery opouod, their first shell burst-
iDg high over our hcadfl. At overy fire
tlioy dopresaed their pieces, uud were ob-
laiatng our range, when the men fell back
bolow tho hill, first delivering two or three
voUfljB nt the regiments ol infantry op-
preaching iu front- Behind us was a coui-
paralively gentlo descent to n little spring
uraach. and on the other side a iiteep bank
oiowneJ with largo timber, with hut little
uaderbrusb, and again falling into the ravine
b^hinil, having a large ridge along Its sum-
mit, with soverol largo logs. This was
ubout Iwo hundred and fifty yards, I should
Judge, from and parallel to our position on
the road, and struck mo n5 uu unusually
itrong natured position. I bad been often
O'er Iho ground, and was familiar with its
capacity for defoosu. and could have scarce-
'y conlrised anything more entirely aatia-
factory. Here the men formed steadily and
quietly. in poaitioo. and awaited the pro-
gress of events. Three companies, B, E
and K. had before been detached as skir-
mishers. Our sick, over two hundred in
uomber, had been sent to tbo rear beforo
Itaving camp— ncoriy all of tho remainder
of the regiment were now in line ; not more,
I think, than a fair average having disap-
peared 00 general principles. Proaontly on
ear eld posilion on the roud, appeared one or
more regiments, and a couple of regiments
cMoe marching, splendidly, in lino from Ibe
'ight, and look up tbeir posilion ot right
Mgles lo the force in the road, tbeir left
nank directly toward us, ond only aliout n
bundled yards from us.

I don't think Ibey knew of our where-
obonta. Their flag I could not at first make
^al. but presently saw that it was veritable
MCesh. Colonel MoArtburrode down from
'u* brigade, and stood with me some time ;
■e were puuled about the whole affair, for
-hej Mcmed to ho in bluo uniforms.

Socne ten minutes after ho left me, an or-
'JB'Iy rode up with Col. McArlhur'aoom-
Phment!, and a caution not to fire ot the
"ginicnts in front, that two of his officers
twviiited them and that they wert. our
''»n regiments, who had captured n rebel
"'g. and wero raising it as a decoy.

So iju laid quietly iu position until uu
olfiMr roporled lo me a force coming up the
f»"nt on our left, going lo Ihn point ot tho
"?ee. I saw that it wm the Fifty-fifth and
*uly-fourlh. They lookup their po.^itlon
m the ravine to onr left, and below ug,
"bera Ihey wore terribly exposed to u most
'uTrous fire which was immediately opened
^pon Ihom, and which it seemed to mo they
'■^m uot effectoally return, for I observed
loat tho enemy fell back behind tho crest of
■«e hill lo load, and advanced and delivered
«tir Gre, eiposing but the upper pert of
'firbodios. Seeing that the regiments in
.1 ' had commenced firing apparently
'alhoSJtband 55lh, 1 gave the order to
^^menee firing. This uneipected fire
tw the enemy into confniion for a mo-

tat, but they rallied with great steadiness
•M opfoed on a.. After Ibis firing had
^♦oGuncd fo, a while, remetaberiog the mes-
J^a of Col. UoArthur. and knowing tho
I'-iOeat fatal mjeinkts ibm h-.d b*eu made

during Ibis war, I was apprebcnsiro tha
90m" mistake might probably eiist, I gavi
ibo command lo cea°e firing and passed
alone our line, to a point where I could s
onr friends below, and watching the mov
ments, I saw tbot the force immediately
iiur front wore undoubtedly firing at o
friends. I gave tho command again lo
commonoo firing and it was immediately re-
opened. Takingiato consideralion Iho fact
that no regiment in tho service contained
more oipert marksmen than tho 7Ist, which
was raiEcd prinoipally in Mercer, Augloi
and adjoining counties, ojid that thoy wo
armed with rifles of a fair degree of noc
racy, and firing, as most of them did, wi
deliberation, nnd at point blank range, at i
enemy entirely exposed, it would have been
stronge if the result had not been very fatal
to tbo enemy. They could bo seen falling
like tenpins, on their most exposed flank.
One of their oflicors, loft n prisoner in tho
hospilol. told ono of mine that they could
not have beunheld if heavy re-enforcements
had not como up. Captain McConnell, of
company B, Tifilcd tho ground on Monday
or Tuesday, and reported to mo that be-
tween fifty and sixty men were lying dead
upon the rtound where their linos wore
fumed, and a large number wero piled in
"' avine, in tbo rear. These regiments
exposed to no other firo than that of
thaSoveoty-firsl, and no olher part of tho
light of Monday ocourred on that ground.
Itwoa after tbn fire reopened that Lieu
tenant Colonel Kyle was killed. It wo
about noon when he fell. Ho was sitting
in conversation with Licntenant Mason, '
company C. leaning forward on a log, whi
a bullet struok him in tbo center of the right
breast, passing, as I was afterward informed,
nearly through tho body, diagonally, nearly
to the left hip. Ho called to me immediately.
as I was only a few feet from him — told me
tliot bo wa6 wounded— poinlcd out tho place,
id fell back upon iho gross, as t supposed,
dying. It was a lerriWo blow to all of us.
one of those men with whom iuti-
ociation draws oloaer tho bonds ot
afi'eotion, I put him in charge of one of
the oflicors. to gee that he was properly
r. I now took position on the
right, for there was danger of their
_ ini' tines Irom that direction, and
the battle went forward, Ibe luoii firing
steadily from tbeir position, and no movu-
" ". being necessary nntil eomo change
made in tbo disposition of tho enemy.
After a while — one has litllo idea of time
such occasions — I saw tbo olher regi-
ments passing to the rear, across a raviue
opening behind us; the enemy wero in force
on the loft, and were moving also on our
right, nnd I gave the order to retreat. Tho
i were thin, as I had ondeavorod to c

luch ground as possible, and the Ci

try being broken, the regiment did not keep
together. I led part of them back to w'
our surgeons wero stationed to see if
rungementa wero made for tho oaro of Col.
Kyle, and tu aeo that the wounded wei
attended to- A few fell in with tho 54'
55tb, most, bowevcr, went with Maji
Andrews to the river hank, near tho mouth
of Liok creek, where he informed the cap-
in of the gunboats of tho progress of nf-
Irs, who immediately commenced bbclliug
Iho woods, under cover of which thoy
marched back to Ihe Landing, about two
iles below.

Tho enemy did not follow in force, a few
skirmishers only foHoning a short distance.
Their retreat wqb undiaturhod. Arriving
near the Landloi;, Ihey formed in lino and
took part in tho final fight of the day, which
resulted in checking tho advance of Ihe

Such IS B plain and full statement of
every event of the day; and now, I ask.
when was it that Iho 71st disgraced Ohio ?
Wo marched out In tho morning with less
than five hundred men in line, many baving
fallen iu who wero too sick to remain, nod
tho total count being a little over five hun-
dred when tho line was first formed. Out
of this number, wo lost ono hundred and
I, about one-fourlh of the men en-
goged — lost them in a fair fight iu their

^panies. We held in check two regi-

nt^, who, in more Ihan an hour and a
half's hard fighting, did uot odvunco a foot,
and who, except for us, would have' pressed
upon tho right and rear of tho rest of tho
brigade, and inevitably overwhelmed them,
for they were pressed already in frout. and
threatened, if uot actually attncked, ou tho
have no doubt that both the 55th
andS4th fought well on that day, though we
didnotaoo much of tfaeoi as they could
only bo seen from tbo ostreme end of tho
^idge. They sufi^ered terribly, more thau
vo did, for they wore more cipoded. Sta-
ioned OS thoy wero in a ravine, and then
fortnod in squares — a disposition iu which
troops are most exposed lo tbo effects of
'' o, and least able to return it effoclually.

I understand that Col. Stuart's report to
Gen. Sherman was, that ho did uot see (bo
7Iat aftor the first fire. That is Irae. He
did not see us after ho left us just heloje
Ihe first fire; and bo tho 71st might report
that thoy did not see Col. Stuart ; and then
the question would bo whether it was the
duty of the regiment lo look after Iho JJrig-
adior, or the Brigadier's duty to look after
the regiment, llut so Inr as either alule-
ment would cast any imputation upon the
olher porty, it would bo an unfair impro s-

copy tbo subjoined card, by M, T. Wal-
worth, from tho Albany. N. Y., Ada! ff
Argua:
Editors of i'.c Attaa fj- Arffui, Albany

My altention baa been called to an artiolo
in your paper relating to Lieut. Wharton,
who was shot by a sentinel in the Old Cap-
itol Prieon, Washington. I havo no ques-
tion in my mind that tho same spirit of fair-
ness which characterized your paper before
I became n citiaon of Kentucky, slill pre-
vails, nnd will induce you to give this article
a ptnco in your columns. I speak from
knowledge of the occurrence. I was arrest-
ed by order of Gen. HcCleUon. imurisoned
for nearly three months in tbo ConfeJerale
prisou. and am still a prisoner wilh the
parole of Saratoga county, and am obliged
to report to thia Government daily my
whereabouts. 1 was beside Lieut. Wharton
in tho room when be was shot, hoard thu
altercationwilh the sentinel, and iha charges
made by the dying man. I was bis friend,
end when tbo fellow prieoners loft him wilb
his wife he requested me to remain with
him and her until ho died.

He did not provobo the altercalion. Ho
was resting with his arms upon tho window
sill, ond whon ordered to take in his head,
withdrew his arms and stood perfecily erect.
and a few inches back from tho window.
Tha words of the sentinel, which provoked
Wharlon'a sarcostio retort, were not the
order to take in hia head, but the aonlinul's
of opprobrioaaepithulB andcureiughim.
le was in no mood for quarreling, having
that very moment closed a Bible, from
which bo was reading aloud his motber'i
favorite chapter, nnd remarking upon bii
respect for tho Episcopalian religion, occa-
sioned by her life. Wbun the aUercatiot
had gone on for a few inomeota, and whili
Wharton was elandisg a few iuohes back
irom the window, with bis left band ret
upou bis right elbow, the sentinel, nndei
order of an unseen person below in
prison yard, raiaed his musket to the second
story window and fired. Tho ball passed
through bis left band, his right arm, j "
thence through his right breast, going
lirely through him, aud striking the i
beyond-

He was my frieud, and 1 shall vindicate
his memory.

It would bo proper for thoao who havt
friends prisoners in Eichmond, to makt
< effort to have afair examination of thii
, for retaliation upon prisoners by the
haely and uncontrolled soldiers of either
side, should, for tho sake of humanity, be
postponed by the good sonbo of the bellig-

jieut, Wharton bad resigned from tho U.

HP Onn of ilie readiest replies we have

Liziio'a face eaddaued for a moment as
liho thought of tbe last two years, and how
little music she had made for bis loving
heart gradually weuoiog it from its allegi-
ance, and then said, " I wonder if you lovo

'■ Of course I do. I have often dropped

But you always say you are out of

'■ I had the piano tuned thia morniug.

William obeyed her joyfully, aud tossing

oot. She bud a very sweet voice, not

powerful, but moat musical, and she was a

Ko Firing OH Our Troops Iroiii

We see no reason to believe the tele-
graphic stories about tho firing of women
from bouiPS in Winchester on our troops on
their recent retreat from that town. Nor
do we pluoo implicit fnlth iu those of the
allogod unprovoked barbarity of tbe rebels
practiced on Konly's command. Though
iliey are brutal enough in all conscience,
Kd require more than first telegraphic dis-
|,iitohe3 lo make us swallow those accounts.
The peopio infiebeldom, deceived by lying
;ories per telegraph nnd otherwise diiaemi-
aled. very gonovnlly believe that the con-
duct of our troops to their wounded ia quite
as repreheusibie as these accounts make the
conduct of theirs in these cases. All know
how unjust the aaparsions art? upon oar gal-

cle exhibits bad it au; coafidenco in tho po-
sition its purty is oaauming on tho negro
(jueition. When diaseoled tho ahallowoeaa
nf (tie thing nill appear.

Who over said a nord against our oSicors
putting the runaway negroes to nork on
llie fortifications, Tbn complaint has been
liiat they were noi thus jiul lo work. Hod
Ihny been, precious few would have 00™!"

staid long if thoy bod, without compuUioD.
Tbe coaipjaint has been thol Ihoae negroes
trero kept about Iho camps idle, eating up
the soldiers' rations, and attracting atten-
tion, lo ibo dissatis faction and neglect of tho
soldiers. These bavu been tho complainle.

The idea of our govtrnment turning far-
mer oc planter is entirely a now one, and in
mora ndioulous than new. Tho French
Gotemment, under its Emperors, docs a
large farming busiucas, but ivo never sup-
poifd that we would go there for an esoni-
p 111 to carry out constitutional provisions.
If it is tho intention of President Lincoln,

Tho whole thing ia n bair-hrained farce—
ihnut equal to raiding cotton in Ohio. The

and knoiTs it well, that all this ado about

Wu are surprised that the Journaf should
have thrust in our face an oilract from ona
if the Now York Tribune's, N'KIVDEUSE.
corroapondentg. Tbo Intlora wore fabrica-
tions— tho malsrial niodo up from flying re-
ports and guosa work, the writer not being
t the place whore tbe debates oc-
ourtnd. ThosQ letlorSof the Tribune and
particular quotation, have been flatly
contradicted and eiplained. Perbapa tbo
Journal did not know thii, yot wo cannot
bow it did not know, at least, that sus-
picion Lad been thrown upon them by our
ofBcera from tbore.

But the truth or falsity of what Governor
FLMF.R did say. is not a matter of import-
.ce to the point to which this subject is
iing drawn as a question for tho people of
iio, Tho Southern States and tbo North-
oSlatca. and caoh one foritsalf, is fren to
act its own part and exercise its own judg-
ment, and no outsiders have any right lo in-
terfere, with their judgments upon Iboir
local and home matters. If wo do not
ido this, then we arc plunging head-
foremost into a deapotiam, and one man
[>lectT!d to speak and think for all
Ibe States nnd all tho people in tho Stotes
>ne or tho other is inevitablo. Swora up-
tho nllar of our country to oppose des-
potism in every form, we are distinctly op-
posed to all diotatorahips.

While the " unknown " corrospondont of

tbe Triiun^. which is one of Ibo negro

teachers Id North Carolina, without doubt,

was pulling words in tho mouth of Gov.

GlLiiER which bo never used, he might as

<ll have put Ibcm a little stronger. " Y'os,

vould gladt? emancipate them [slaves] ell

it would restore us back us we were be-

■c." Now ua Ihia would not "lostoreus

ok ns wo were before." tbo eiproasion

lountsto a negative, and the author of the

eiprosfiion might just as well have said " as

tho abolition of slavery can never restore

back as we were before, therefore I am

oppoBc'S to it."

■■ f-'neonrfi/ieiiai Union nien" should say,
rather than see this Union destroyed, and
the best Government ever vouched safe to
blotted out from thefamily of oationa,
ould see slavery perpetuated another
hundred years. Rather than destroy llie
Union, LET SLAVERv ALONE !" The aboli-
tionists bavo pressed their em an cip at inn
for half a century, and at last wben
tboy have brought on n civil war, Ihey
take their next step, and cry out, "now let
destroy slavery to aave tbe Union!"
Had you left it alone, to he decided by the
StntoB whore it misled, wo should bavo hod
-day. The million of men in ar.
my array, destroying eaoh other, would now
mo in the peaceful walks of life,
and enjoying family and home,
Waissy once got up o rebelbon in Wost-
n Pennsylvania, but tho rebellion was put
down without the thought of destroying the
whisky .' There has been no wint of whis-
ky from that day to this.

Tho Tabripf got up a rebellion at a later

period in South Carolina, but did tbe

Tarifiiles ever show so strong n lovu for

tbe Union, that tfaey were willing to adopt

ee trade," ns a patriotic measure lo keep

en civil wars ? These Tariffilus are just

greedy to steal tho earnings of labor to

put money in their own pockets to-day as

Will the Journal show by a solitary word
ahave written, or publisbudin 77ic Crisis,
that we advocated giving the "South all
they wanted." Wo have advocated in
Tho Crisis," and out of it for more thon
thirty years, the giving of the South, tho
Norlh, the Eaat, the West, not what " ihey
uanled," but just what tho Constitution gua-
ranteed iLcm, Neither the North nor tho
South boa any right to want any thing not
given it by constitutionalrigbt. Neither has
tho North any right to withholdfromtbeSootb
that which was her right under tho Consti-
taliou, anymore than tho South bos tbo
right to withhold what is the right of the
North. We differ from tho Journal joat this
levor advocated favors for any sec-
tion cot its right, clear and distinct— while

thoJournai has for n quarter of a century,
been agitating measures for one section
and against the other. Theae are the facts
in the case, yet it auils tbe Jnurnai'J pui
pose better lo toll a falsehood thon admit
tho truth.

Had Breoexkridof. been elected Presi-
dent, we BupposB wo should not have bad
seoeasion in the South, but wo should have
had nu Abolition rebellion iu tbo Norlh,
That ia now ovident, had any one diado-
lieved it before. Had Judge Douglas or
John Bell been eleotcd, we do not believe
ibould have had socesaion in the South,
and probably not much of an Abolition re-
bellion in tbe North. Though thia latter
fact ia not so clear. The Abolitionists have
for years been in a slate of rabellion against
the Conatitution and laws of the country,
and the succssa of Mr. I>ihcoln by and
through this abolition, anti-slavery and "ir-
iprosaiblo " northern feeling, was no doubt
iied upon by tbo oxlroniisls of tho South
prfioipitalo tbe Southern States inio sec-
'sion, but the Border Slave Statea stuck
the Union and the old flag until the Fort
imtor aflair. From that an eicitemont
as got up OS Dsceasary to Mr. Limcoln
. to Mr. Davis. That affair, evident-
ly concocted by somebody for the pnrposo,
onco precipitated tbo aactions into the
iflict which is bringing ruin on the whole
countryNorthandSoutb. That Fort Sum-
ter business has got to he thoroughly sifted
by bim who writes the truthful hiatory of
this unfortunalo civil struggle. Wo are wil-
to postpone asarobing into that part of
the aSair for the present.

As long ago na ISOi) Mr. Clav, in bis
place in tho United States .Senate, depicted
Ihe final object of the abolilion policy, and
quote an extract for tho benefit of tbe
Journal, ns it tells the whole story of its
sectional politics. On the ruins of the
Whig party Ud by Mr. Clav, tbe Rrpubh-
putty waa brought into ojistenco on
onal grounds. Its success but fulfilled
Ihe prediction of Mr. Clav, which should

•re ia ono thing gratifying to us.and
especially so, viz r cur paper seems equally
well received wherever it is road. Its pop-
ty is not confined to location or State,
iroulatiou is not confined to geographical
limits; from Now Hampshire to tho Rooky
Mountains, it appears to meet tbo wants of
n very largo portion of tbo people, and it is
this which gives us bopo of a national sonti-
ment favorable to a Union of the State-i at

The bitterest opposition lo our paper
omes from the British Abolilionisls, thoae
'ho have for thirty odd years labored to
bring about tbe very state of thtngd now
ling, and which Is to bo seized upon to
utterly destroy tbo grnatsat and beat gov-
ont on earth; first by the deatruetion of
the white race, and secondly by forcing
four millions of the black race to take their
places.

If Ihe people do not take this matter in

ave themselves from tho wreck, and their
lountry from annihilation — we may make up

this has got to bo done by the people them-

Wo ore almost afraid to give a lino

barren id aucb facls aa nro in tho least

Wo have received no word from Gen. J

any progress io his efforts Io take Ilioh-

Tbo great interest of the week has cen-
tered in tho Shenandoah Valley, Wo feui
our disasters there have been greater thai
the meagre reports ahow. Still wo must

make up hasty opinionsi and bopo f(
tbo bofct. Why tbo reports aro so brief and
indefinite, we cannot say, hut it leaves

1 to imagine disaatera that may not
have occurred. We know our losses bavo
been heavy, and many on Obioati a!
aat alccp upon mountain and in
ley. In tbo Ntw York Htrald of Saturday
lorning. we find the following brief d
ial, which throws aomo light upon affairs
not at all oredilable to Fremont :

TnK Escape or Stokbwall Jachsos —
Tbiafomoua rebel officer has tbuafar eucceedcd

hjng off about 5,000 prisoners of war along with

had to march a longer diatance by twelve

of P'lemonl's advance. General Shields, howov-
rrived at Pott Republic so much sooner

I'temont amuaed with a comparatiiely inlignili-
cant rearguard, was able lo pounce upon Shielda
and orerpower bia forces before Fremont was
oven in time to aiaigt him, mucb ten to eapture

n. Geo. W. MoRGA^^ has passed into
Eastern Tennessee, if wo can Irost rumors,
ospecting, no doubt, to meet re-inforce-

There has been some fighting near

" la thia the ontertoinmeat to which tho people

Were we a Republican we should be
ashamed lo apeak of those "who ore now
giving their Hood and treaaure for tbo vin-
dication of law." J;c. When the Dem-
iked of the lost fusion Leglalature

questions so vital to them, they were turned

France in Troaible iu IHexico.

Tho French troooa havo met with quite

id-to-bond fight with the Moiicuns-

rhere is also a serious rupture reported

between tho Spanish ond the French oa.

As we bad before alluded to the
Judge BiRClJ, one of the candidates for
Governor of that Stale, wo transfer hii
speech from tho columns of the St Louii
Kcpubliean, mado in Iho Convention, ait
tiog at Jefferson City, of which ho is (
member. Judge BlRCU, from tho firat. took
strong and decided grounds in favor of Ihi
Union, but as boldly and decidedly opposed
all the schemes for ab oil lionizing bia Slate.
There is a great effort making everywhere
to nioko aboliliouisma sine i}u(j non, iu thi
professions of Unionism, To bo for thi
Union you must also he in favor of selling
tho negro free, or as President Lincoln
it. buying ihero free by tasing tho white
men of tho North. Now if onybody sup.
poses that tbe whito men of tbo North wil
voI« such a tax upon themselves, and theu
invite tho negroes bore to mil with the
working olasaea, compete with thein iu la-
bor, rednco their wngca to tho poor-house
point, and stand as cqnals in the work-
shops, in tho field aud at the hallot-bozei,
think wo can toll thorn beforehand, Ihai
they uill be verij mur'i Tnistaken .'

Judge B. bringa to light aomo singular
dovolopmeuta in the letters of Tqomas H.
Bpmton. It shows how dangerous it is
, Democrat to lend himself to tho Abo-
litionists aa a candidate. Thoy first uaod
his great popularity as a Democrat to elect
to a seat in Congress, ond theu claim-
ed his eleotion as a triumph on their princi-
ples of abolitionism, which they dared not
■ before tho election. The same trick
was tried upon the Domoorata elected to tho
Ohio Leglslatnre on the Union ticket last
fall, and in most cases it but too well suc-
eocded.

Judge Birch eiplains the ircaionabh
language he ueed in regard to Secretary
3G and his "legal tender" printing
presses! We take back our inferences
that the Judge waa ignorant of the lalo im-
provements in printing presses, owing to
his proximity' to the sotting sun! The
Judge did not contract his views lo the ex-
penses of tho war in Miseourl, but included
the whole war debt and tbe additional
amount necessary to pay for the emancipa-
o( all tho nogroea on tho basis of the
Pieaident'a project. Wo aro bothered —
do not SCO how treason can be made out
of such an idea— why a man should he cast
prison with common thieves and felons,
fieas and other vermin, for conceiving a
I upon aucb a subject. Bat we cannot
apeak for Miaaouri.

Has Secretary Chase himself not similar
doubts. He has recently naked Congress lo
authorizo him lo eatablisb a Nulional en-
ing and printing office in tho Treaaury
buildings lo secure doing the work with more
oertainty I And thia being done subie-
'utnl to the speech of the Judge for which
lO was arrested and token from tho atand,
rould seem to justify the remark ; hut only
n the gronnd of the greater tho truth the
;reater the treason, can this act of PVonch
andalisn he justified ?

Tlic Bill Io liupprcss Folygnmy.

The bill to aupprcn polygamy, which has pas*-
ed both bouaea of Oongriwa. provides a liae ot
$rtOO and impHumment not leaa than hve years.
It alto provides that no church in any rcrrttori;
ahall own more than $50,000 worth ul property.
'be only voles agaioat tho bill in tbe Senate were
y tho California membera, who were afraid it
rould lead to tcoublea with tho overland route. —

If such acts are eonslUulianat. then what
i the use of Territorial Legialoturea at all !
These Legialaluros aro very oipeneivo to
[ho National and Territorial Treasuries.
Why not Congress dispense with them and
taas all laws necessary lo govern an organi;

r. Biitca. I rise, Mr. President, simp-
ly to a qucstioD of privilege. The notorie-
ty of the Toascna ivhicb detained mo from
my scat in this body until yesterday even-
ing render it necessary, pechapa, that I
should submit a few remarks, in virtue of
my relation and duty as a luember. and as
constituting the only commentary which I
shall probably deem necessary, whether here
or elsewhere in respect to my arrest ami de-
tention during tbe past week.

As I shall not afiujc that privilege, ucd
as my health, withal, (loymoro menial tone
perhupa seems. ) somehow strangely different
to what I havo felt it to he in the past, my
reaiark« will be comparatively brief, but I
trust to the point. Having within tbc last
week realized more of what mey bo denomi-
nated tbe undiscriminatiog blindness of am-
bitious or of civil wnr than I hud ever been
able to bring borne to myself from merely
readitig df ili incident*. I niii by no moans
certain ihat what I ehall ^ay in couneotion

people, Mr. President T I cannot better
oswer uiy own question than by calling
10 attention of Ibe Convention and the
ountrytolho estimate of •■ loyalty '" and

ootnmandant of Ibo post who placed me

--'~i. (Itwill bo noted Ihat that discharge
conditional — all else depending upon a
reciprocal comity, of which the Marshal
not mistaken iu assuming I entertain
proper appreciation. It is, moreover,
but just to that officer and to myself Lo odd
that no su^|i[»liaii over has been mado to
me iu respect either to tbe manner or tbe
matter of what I havo lo eay in tho future,
whether here or cliewhero ; so that I stand
to-day, aa I have ever stood, as free to speak
nil/ Ibuugbta as others are to speak iheir
thoughts. Had it been otlierwiae, Mr. Pces-
ideut, our association " from early manhood

This is the opinion cf a large majority of
tho people of Ohio, that the Abulitionisti
aro not " loyal citizens," and they will bi
voted against as such in this Stale neit
October- They confess they are not
llhe Contlitulioit as U is, nor llie Union

Thia confession will bo good for tbeir
\sQuls before they got through with it. Some

brief, and pray iudulgence accordingly.

I havo nut condescended olsowliero 10
argue the question of my "loyalty," nor is
it necessary here. My uasooiation with
you has been nt least ingenuous and unre-
served—your records und my records are
public property und public tealimouy — ond
I have stood since I last parted with you,
albeit a prisouer alternatively to tho milita-
ry outboritiea of antagonistic armi(
oisojy as I stocd with you during three sea.
sions of our high legislative asaociation.-
Nolhing more, and nothing less. I havo u
tered nothing in my public uddresses hefoi
the people — nothing iu the preseocu of my
captors on cither Hide — which has not its
cnuntorpart in my utterances and my con-
duct here. That is, of course, enough to
ly in respect to my "loyalty." and I am
imply thankful that I have been strongth-
ned to properly mauifest and maintain it
under the circumstances to which I need not
more specifically advert. WhiUt I have felt
that the respectful consideration which was
shoivn to mo during tho period which I was
he compulsory guest of tbe Confederate au-
borities In uo respect abated my venera-
ioQ for "the Union as it mat." so, on the
itber band, the simitar respcclfulccuaidera-
tion which has been shown me by the mis-
guided authorities of my own Government
' IN in no respect abated uiy devotion to
my State as it is." Upon these cardinal
propoaitions, therefore, I stand to-day a.s I
itand upon all your records.

Of tbo manner of my discharge, it is,
perhaps, auflioiont to Ktate that after hav-
enl to Ironton and elsewhere for wit-
s against me, nnd having up to Thurs-
day last examined those who mado their ap-
pearance, a mcsaouijer brought to my hotel,

' From lliB Lon'toD Ttmf

The London Pre«s ■
Aflnlrs.

Tho FederulB nre working out the old
metopbor, and eating up tho South leaf by
leaf, as n, man woula eatau QTlicboke. It
is a pleasant ocoupallon. lo one not loo
hungry, leiiiiiroly laclined, and with plenty
of tirna on hia handa : but Ibe artichoke id
not u vegetable einotly adapted lo a passen-
ger who bae but len minutes for his dinner,
and nbn bns In make bis way by Iho piprcBa
train, nbich will not irait. New OrlcnDS
was tt very large loaf, (|iiielly pulled off and
peaceably discosscd, and now Yorktown ia
another, enjoyed with equal ease tnd com-
fort. To o mililary mind, tho evacuation
of VorklowD will probably oBuse no very
great QSloniahmenl. If there were no snoli
things as ships of wnr, on isthmus wocld hi
tho stronceat post n commnoder conld OO'
copy. Ho has nothing to do but to moki
lines HOrosB tho neck of land very BlrooL',
ho would be aafo ngainst all tboso flank
tnovementa which arc, in fact. Iho acieni
But when tbo sea is covered ni
hostile fleets, it is tbe buainesH of tho Gei
eral who has not tbo comDiand of ihn a
.Blnnce of tboso fleets, to keep oa far awny
om that troaoherous elFtncnt i:s be can.
So long na tbo wholesome terror imposed
by tho Mcrri'iac continued, Yorklown wai
a good alrategio position. Directly, bow'
ever, it began to be auspeoted that tbe
Mcrriniac was not likely lo repent
Bobievecnent of Hampton Itoads, there
a BtroDg probability of a fleet of ebipa of
war end transports running by the rivoi
forts up the York River ond the Jame;
River, and Inndiug on nrmy in tbe rear ol
Confederate lines; thuB cutting then
oS from Richmoad. and patting them bo-
fires. Napoleon might posaibly
gind of an opportunity to unni
bilalein two blows a thus divided enemy
but it is not in accordance with what wi
if Confederate tactics lo seek any
such dangerous opportunities. Tbo Fabian
lolioy has hitherto been tbe policy of the
louth. They have from the first been hop'
ng that eometbing might turn up. Origi-
nally they believed that Europe would come
icue King Cotton. Disap-
pointed in that, tbey were convinced that
the North would be divided, and then thai
tbe funds would f^l. Now Ibey ore prob-
ably living upon tbo remnants of oU these
broken hopes, and partly upi
in that Iho heat^ of sum
away the hosts they cannot vanqoifah, Do
lay they think to be equal lo violory, and,
some ojlent, tboy are doubtless right,
ut it is o poliey whiob may bo carried too
r, and, bit by bit, they may give op so
uoh that they may at last have uoLhtng
•rj uiucb worth lighting for. Tbo danger
of being surrounded would, however, appear
to bo snOioient strntcgio reason for tneii
nchievemenl in abandoning their York'
town lines.

As lo the Ecventy-ono guns taken, and Ihe
rest of thu garnii^bment of [ho Yorktown
"air, we remember that we nre very mucl
the mercy of tho Northern news mouopo-
ts. Theto con be no controversy, bow-
er, tbnt Iho retreat itself is a great re<
rse ; it ie another line leaf go:ie from thi
ortichoke, Tho Federal fingers nro already
the olhcr line leaf wbich Richmond
rcpreKents, With JIoDowcll and J3i
he one side and McCtellau on the other, the
iltorualiva Ihat must soon bo presented will
probably be n battle under disadvantage
thoevaoualiuu of Riobmoud. Tan mont
ago, perhaps, wo fhould not have thought
much of tbe loss of Ricbraond. Wo bad in
Euglaud made up our minds that the chief
cities uf tbe South must bo taken nt tbi
first rush. Bat then we hndnul realized to
ourselves tho serious and obstinate obnrac-
ter of tbo confliot, the vast armies which
... to be employed on either side, and the
enduring cbaraotor of the struggle,
tho capture of Richmond would b>
idous victory to tbo Federals,
iberless arms of the great
stretched out over tbo whole land. The
Mississippi may besaidto be forced through-
Dot its entire length, and wherever ships-of-
irar can lloat no Confoderalc force can show
itself in safety.

War has been carried ou upon a scale
never betoro heard of, at a cost never before
ht possible, and upon principles whlcb,
jer Europe, were thought tho wildest
ions. Tbe soldier who lived upon his
ind spccit half aorownoutof sixpence
a day. at least had bis siipence. But hare
' America, turned soldier, spendingonboth
lies a million nnd a half sterling a day
)on an income of nothing a day, and going
-J joyously, with no lack of credit. W
did not eipect ihia in Europe, People at
distance oan not comprehend these popuL.
delusions. The Tulip Mania, tho Soulb Sea
Bubble, tho great Darion scheme, tho Vigc
Bay scheme, in our fathers' days, nud, per-
hops, the Suez Canal project in our own,
are things which people not in the vortei
look upon wilh wonder nnd amazement, and
aro astounded that ihey endure so long ad
they do. Here is this great bubble ol
American finance, swelling and swelling bo-
's eyes, and wo all tbiuli must burst
iw. Yetitgocs on. With every
success tbo stocks are rising, and the Amori-
B are aolually. at tbe very time that they
ibio wing aside their tax bills, apecula-
liug in confidence that Europe will oumo in
I some early date and buy up their promi-
--to-|>ay nl high premiums. This delu-
;i may lost much longer Ihan wo here
' iri possible, and it is certainly the inter-
I ill' a great many people in America and
y easy for a few Atuoricnns in Europe to
" up. .\8 long as it does, there will
lok of some sort of money, and while
money, armies and flcota can be
ne d. While nobody pays except in
promises, tbe objeotions are of a mild and
theoretical obaracler. The North-west dose,
indeed, already say thot this is entirely u
Yankee war. in which Yankees get all tbe
contraots, toko none of tho loan, dono fight-
ing, and make enormous profits : hut as the
North-west is asked, up to this time, for no
laies, and never intends to pay any, the
timo ia not come for any practical objection.
This gigantic bubble may ihoreforii last
for some lime vet ; long enough perhaps to
takn Riohmona, and drivo the Confcderalua
back to some other strategical point, and
follow tbpmuptbero and disperse
them, it is not the lesf r.ial for tho mo-
ment because we know tins fabric of fairy

bo no h

credit to ho short-lived. All the millions
nnd hundredaofmilliona which we see flying
about nre like the fparks thnt fly upward
Irom n boquet of fireworks ; but, amid all
this evanescent glory, what is real is ibat
Mr. Lincoln is discovered in Ihe blaze leis-
urely but resolutely eating his orlichoke.
. Rut mhen ho bos sucked tho lost leaf, and
has even daintily prepared and swallowed
Iho ooce, Ihero is yet another operation — he
will have lo digest it. When all military
organization in Ibe South has been dislo-
ooled and all social and commeroiol organi-
Eation Is also broken down, when Richmond
is Bobdned and Norfolk is taken, when Sa-
vannah has a Northern garrison, and New
Orleans is vigorously ^Ivanized into
mnrciul action, when Beauregard is a i
of the post and Je&erson Davis has be
dealt with that Northern statesmen
their interest in Ihe eavesdroppioga of his
coachman, when all these things have hap-
pened, then will begin the terrible nightman
caused by thu necessary prooess of attempt'
ing to digest that delicious artichoke. Some
of the Northern alatesmon already proft
to their friends that the thought of what
must bo done with the South, tnhen it hai
btrn conquirtd, haunts them in their dreamfi.

We hear it has already been propi
Washington to out this knot by ruling the
d Stales as Territories by Gi

A Reuedv for Suai-l PO)i— Dr. Frede-
rick W. Morris, resident pbytioion of thf
Halifai Visiting Dispensary. N. S., has writ-
ten a letter to the vlrnCTican Mtdual Times,
in which bo states that the "SarTacenia
Purpurea," or Indian cup, a untivoplant of
Nova Scotia, is the remedy for small pox i

ppointad by the President and i
proved ny the Sena"

foreign appointments. It ia seven millionB
of the Anglo-Soionraco whom it is proposed
tbns to rule. What will bo the onmbersand
tho cost of the military and naval foroi
cesaary to do it ? Is this what is meant by
restoring tho Union ! If so, then tbe capture
of New Orleans and the ocoopalion of York-
town may he steps to that long wished foi
end. But if Mr. Lincoln proposes lo him-
self first to puU to pieces and eat out tb<
jweetness of^ his artichoke, and then to pul
:t together again with its leaves all crisf
ind CTPcn. the mote of those leaves he pulls
iff toe further bo seems lo us to bs from
any chance of cvi-r compassing his original
object.

of tbe lending Aholitiouiata in that body,

made a speeoh for negro emancipation, ot

wDold relisTe hia eenaitivo fnend from Kentucky.
In concluEioo, ho said ho would not Inare one
slave ia tlie wuko of ouradvanc'mg armies."

Itis thus that the Abolitionists in Congress

icek to drivo from us every Union man in

Iho slave States, and to convert tbo South

to one solid column of disunion. Sedg-

Ick talks about no ons being loyal who is

it willing tu sacrifice slavery for the Union!

That is an issurt of his own making. Tho

only sacrifice Io save the Union that is

necessary is to give up AbolilioniKm, and

that hoandhiscoUeaguus willnotdo. Tboy

say perish the Union a thousand limes

rather than that negro umanoipation shall

be abandoned. — Cincinnati Einji

The President of Ihe New York and Erie
silroad receives a salary of 525,000 a
year, a sum equal to that paid to the Presi-
dent of tho United SUtea. Other equally
brilliant finautters have been paid in pro-
wo doubt if any man in eiis-
tenoe over possessed greater oopacity for ex-
ve operalioos than Col. Cross, au in-
of the Kastem Penitentiary, who was
sentenced eighteen monthsago to fivoyeara
inonrceration for tho crime ol forgery, after
running tho gaunllotof the ooutis in the
principal cities of £urope and America.

Of Col. Cross' osploits tho tenth part has
not been told- It was he who forged a par-
don for tho forger Huntingdon, by which
that distioguisbed culprit almost esoaped
from Sing Sing prison, and but for the heai-
tanoy of the Warden, nould have been again
loose upon tho community. Captured him-
self nt last, and immured in Auburn (N.
Y.) State prison. Col. Cross forged docu-
mouta by which a genuine pardon was ob-
tained, and bis liberation aeoured before the
fraud was detected and his person detained

The hialory of this illustrioua culprit is

0 well known to be bore repeated, so far

1 his career in this city is ooncerued-
Soffieo it is to Bay that on \Vcdnesdoy Mar-
shol Milward received au euvelope from tho

Depnrtiuont. The envelope boro the
frank of Secretary Stanton, and was post-
marked Washington. Theineloaure was a
from Mr. VVatson, Assistant Secreta-
ry of Wur, dirocling the Morshol porsonal-
ly lo draw up a petition to the Governor
Lsking for the pardon of Col. Croas. He
109 to take the petition to tho various U.
S. oSioials for signature, and having obtain-
ed the pardon, to bring Col. Cross to Wash-
ington, where his services were required by
the Government.

The document was to the eyes of tho
Marshal nnmistakably genuine. The Shcr-
ild have bung any prisoner in his
oharge upon a similar warrant, and tho war-
den of the Penitentiary upon the like au-
thority would have opened the doors of his
boarders' house," and turned all bands
loose. The Marshal, of course, obeyed ia-
Btructions. Ho drew up the petition, and
District Attorney Coffey, the Collector of
the port, and all tho United States oBieials,
ipt tho Postmaster, who was not in the
, affixed their signatures to it without
the least hesitatioa uUerlirst reading tho let-
ter from the War Department.

Marsbat Milward took the documents lo
Harrjsburg, and returned by next traiu with
afull pardon. He took a carriage direct for
the PenilCQtiary, and presented tho pardon
to the warden. The genuineness of the
document being beyond pcradvontute. Col.
Cross was delivered up. The tidings were
conveyed lo him in his cell, much to his np-
paient aslonishmeut, and wilh a bag ovci
his head ho was brought out to the warden's
office. Hero he was dressed in tho clothes
iu which he entered the prison, his striped
livery was taken off, aud in company
a Marshal and a deputy, ho was dtiv
Ihe Ualtimore depot. The Marshal still
" fro^e " to him, the instructions being to
bring him to Secretary Stanton. ■

The trip to Washington was made with-
out mishap and the Marshal, his assistani
and Col. Cross drove up to Ihe Secretary's
office. They alightod and entered. The
Marshal asked for Mr. Stanton, and wa:
shown into his room. Hand shaking all
round until Col. Cross was reached.

" Mr. Secretary," said tho Marshal, ''this
is Col. Cross, whom you have sent for.
" Glad to see Col. Cross— how do yo
sir?" said tho aff'ablii Secretary, shaking
Col. Cross' hand : " hut I can't remember
sending for you, sir.''

■'This," said lh« Marshal, "is Col.
Cross, whom t brought down by your or-
ders from the Eastern Peuitentiory al Phil'
adolphia"

'■ Sir 1" oj^olaimed tho Secretary, in utter
surprise.

"Col. Cross, sir, I eaid, pardoned by
Gov. Curtin from tbu Kastern penitentiary,
at your desiro, and brought here by mo ar
your request."

Secretory Stonten looked puzzled am
.bbed his temples.

■■ The nulhority by which I have acted,'
id Ihe Marshal, "is this," placing in Sec
reiary Stanton's hand tbu letter Froui Mr
"''atson, bearing bis own frank.

Mr. Stanton look the envelope wilh a bo

ildored air. It was a genuine War De

partment envelope. The irank vfas identi

cal with bis own. The inclosuro was an or

itten upon the paper used in tho Wa

Office, with |hu imprint of the Deparlmeul

ifest baudwritiug of Mr. Watsou

Assistant Secretary, to the purport as above '

narrated.

The Secretary declared bis entire ignor-
ance of tho matter, and touched his bell. —
A messenger responded. The messenger
was sent for Mr. Walson. Mr, Walson en-
tered. Secretary Stanton handed Mr. Wat-
son the envelope, and requested to know
what it all meant.

Mr. Watson opened the letter, looked at
it, and was astounded. " This is my wri-
ting," said he at first, " when did I write it !
What does it mean I" Ho read tho signa
ture, which ho scanned closely. All doubts
wore now removed. The crossing of the
"fbetraycd the fraud. "This is not mj
writing," said Mr. Watson, " ilia n forge-
ry, oud the most woaderfui one I have cvei

"Can it bo possible '" echoed the asl«n-
.*hed Marshal.

■' It is a forgery — pure and aimpl-i."

Here was a scene, at the end of which on
.nquiry arose what was to be done with Col.
Cross.

The Marshal settled the matter by direct-
.ng Col. Cross to come again lo the carriage,
[0 be taken to Philadelphia.

Colonel Cross put on the iadigoant. and

demanded by what right he was token back,

"By my authority," said the Marsbai,

"because your pardon was procured by

forged papers."

Then, sir. you are transcending your
powers," said Cross. "My pardon is a
enuine one, nt any rate, and you have no
ight to go behind it."
" Take him back," saidSecretary Stanton.
"By what law?" demanded Cross, to
■bom Ihe air of liberty had gained an addi-
otial sweetness from tho few moments that
be had enjoyed it.

If it cannotto revoked, the Govt
will toko charge of tho Colonel and
send him to Fort Lafayette. In any cose
he will servo out bis five years' imprison-
ment, of which only about eighteen mouths
have expired. Gaining tho information at
hour so lato that authorities could not be
eonsulled, the reporter Is unable to furnish
any information upon this point. SuScD it
to repeat, that Col. Cross was yesterday re-
turned to the penitentiary, and that if the
overnor's pardon cannot he rovoked, he
ill be sent to Port Lafayette by Seorelary
Stanton.

As for the Marshal's part in this affair, it
but just lo say that no man in the com-
munity, placed in bis position, would bavo
doneotherwiao than ho has done. He oven
deserves credit for holding fast hid prisoner
and bringing him hack to the penitentiary.
In coping with Colonel Cross, no common
itelleot has to he grappled with. Cross,
I we have already aoid, escaped from Au-
burn penitentiary in this very manner, and
defied tbo pollco of France by similar laotics.
There is one thing that I'emains to be ex-
plained, and that is, bow communication was
bad with Cross by outside parties. That
hu personally forged the letter of Mr. Wat-
(■on and the frouk of Secretary Stanton,
cannot bo doubled. That any other known
person can do it the police do not believe.
With Cross, forgery is an instinct. We
know a certain hUrateutr of this city, who
exhibits a book of autographs us genuine,
I all written by himself. But an
expert could detect the diSerence almost at
Lglance. Colonel Cross Is no such bungler,
ibow him a letter, and aflor a few minutes'
itudy of its peculiarities, he will produce a
perfect foe simile. Tho documents in
question, it is not doubted, wore prepared
byhimself; bat how the blanks were ob-
tained, who was bis confederate, and how
was obtained to the convict, are
beyond our ability lo conjecture.
Tho reporter ot tbis paper once desiring an
interview with n criminal, was obliged lu
obtain tho written permission of two of the
Prison Board, and even then a turnkey with
ougle oyo watched and overheard every syl-
lable uttered. Unless such a party were
bribed, it would seem impossible that the
matter could be accomplished.

Even us it is, the case is a remarkable
le. Frustrated as it was, it is the most
igular upou record. No other man but
Col. Cross could have done so much. That
abilities like his should ao be misapplied is
a most melanoboly reflection. Colonel
Cross wns sold out to justice by a well-
known character of this city, quite as bad
a man as himself, who carries the price of
Cross' betrayal in the shape of a magnili.

Brulal Oa(rage"Lyoching orilic

of the most flagrant outrages erer
perpetrated in Kansas, prolific as our SOrto
has been of crime, was committed near tbis
place last Monday night. Tho particulars,
I we leotn them, are 03 follows :
Two soldiers, one holongiug to the 2J
bio Cnvolry and tho other to the lOth Kau-
iB, went up Mill Creek to the house of Mr.
John Davis, one of Ibe oldest and must re-
spected oiltEeus of this county, and, in
ptesonco ot the mother, accomnlished their
hellish purpose on the person 01 her daugh-
r. Davis was nhsont at another claim
about three miles distant, but was aroused
by a neighbor wilh a report that outcries
'isd been heard in tbe direolion of his
lOuse. In company with a number of his
ipigbbors, he went to his house, captured
ho criminah, brought them to town, and
urocd them over to tho military uutboritios.
After due coDsidoration of the matter, Gen.
Uoubloday resolved to eond them to Port
>rtb for trial. A civil writ nan
procured, and on it the prisoners
.odover to Doputy Sheriff, Peter
Zuck. Tbis wns ou Thursday ovoniog.
They were taken immediately tfl Marmiton.
"" __ ' night, a largo crowd surrounded
the placid whero tho ptisuucrs were conGo-
ed, aod look Ihom by force out of tbo Shot-
iff'B hands. Yoaterday morning they were
found banging on u treo a short distance
this side of Marmiton. This is in brief Ihe
particulars of the affair. Wo would much

it would have bad a much better effect.

In tbe bunds of ihe civil authorities their
ihmenC would have been long delayed,
might have been doubtful, even Ibea,

As it ia, they have received a terrible
shment for a terrible crimo. Lynch
should over be a lost resort, and
ways to be deprecated by every law

abiding citizen ; but if there over was an

instuoco in which it was justifiable, this is

tho one.

lilioofaiib mado spoeouea misquoting llr.
Douglas lo support their peculiar vioivs
ou omauoipatiou and oonfiscnlioii. Gor-
omor liiohord.-oo replied to them briefly nnd
to tbo point. En said:

Mr. Speaker — I propoae to roply to n
aiuslo point which ha^ urisen ilucing tbo
progress of this debate.

Hepablioon members have ftequootly

Suoted Judge Doogloa within tbo last few
ays, and quoted bim, too, for tiinlt owfi
purposes. And now I desire to remind
them and tbo country tbatiti all his ancecfaos
iu reference to ibis war, Judco Douglas
took Ibo broad and stalesmanliko position
that this war should lie conduotod for tbo
preservatlou of tho Conatitatioa and Ibe
iforootoent of the lawn — for nothing more,
ilhing lee.-i. His position ia bo clearly de-
fined tbat a few brief oitraots from his Inat
speeches will at onco viadioato tbo truth of
history and plaoo bitn in tbe proper light
before his countrymen. At Springfield,
III., in n spoeoh made before thoLegiBla-
turo during tbe rnonth of May, 1801, hn

"The hrft duty ol an American citizen, or i

citiien of any conatitotianal government,
obedience to the constitution and laws of hi
inlry. 1 have no approheogion tbat any ma
. Ulioois. or beyond Ihe limits uf our own hi
loved State, will mieoonatroo or miaunderaUiod
my motive. So far bb any of the partisan que*.
' ins are concorocd. I stand in equal, eternal and

idying oppoiibon (o the Kepublicana nnd the
Seceuionials."

Aad again, in tho Hame apeooh, ho r

Heneo I repeat thot 1 am not prepared
toko up arms or to sanctinn a policy of our Gov-
■oment lo take up arma lo moke any war upon
lU ngblB of the Southern Stales; upo" ■" '■-
iostitutione; upon their riubt^ of persona
irty; but on tbo contrary, would ruab
lelenio and protect them from asinult; but whilo
hat IS tbe cute, I will never ceaeo lo urge mv
lounlrymen to take np arms to 6gbt lo tbe death
n defense of our rigbl«. (Long nod contiai
applaoEO.] Hence if o war dood come, it i
warul self defense on our part It iaownr
dofenio of our jnat rights ; in defenio of tho Gi
eminent which we have inberiteil u a priceh
legacy frocn our patriotic fatherB ; in defonao of
trade, commerce, transit and intercourre from the
center to Ibo circumference of our great Cunti-
inl. Tbcee are rights w'< must attugglo for and

And in the tost groat effort of hia life, his
apueob at Chicago, innd'< but n fon dityn
prior lo hia daBtb, bo snid :

Neilber Itopoblionn mcmbera nor Kepuh-

;un olfioinl>i anywhere can find nnjthing
in tbo above eitracta, nor in any apeecb or
letter of Judge Dooglns. which will justify
tbe sligbtOBt violation of tho Con-

The ICepublican parly, through itH Presi-

The Houso of Represuulatives of tbe
Thirly-aiith Congress, a majority of whoee

By Ihe organic acts of tho Territories of

Office Dep&rtment at Washington to say to
OUT Bubsoribers residing t>eyond tho Wbi't-l-
Ing Post Office, that no orders were (.-ivcn
tho Wheeling Post Master to stop Tuc
Crisis passiut! through that office. If tbey

0 again withheld wo hope tbey will advise

t of it.

We have bad great oompbiuts from tbe
Ohio Holdiers in Virginia, that they oould
lut get their papers. Tbe cooiplnint was
that no "Democratic paper from Ohio"
oculd reach the camps, while any amoont
of Rcpublica'i papers wore sent tbrough.
Soine of tho soldiers are connected with
Deainoratia papers in Ohio, nod yet tbey
oould not gel thein through, 'f bey thought
it hard, that while they were Buffering every
privation in the Army of Virginin, tbo au-
thorities al Wheeling refused tliem tbe
(^adiog of their own papers ! Thoy did not
know for cetloiu that the Post MnEtor at
Wheeling was lo !>Um», but tbey feared
auoh was tho faot,

Wu can now state to all concerned, that
the bliimo does not rest wilh tbe Post OiBce
Department at Washington, and wo should
be j^iaii lo korii that no one in tbe Govern-
ijifut employ is to blame. We should not
have called attention lo tbi^ matter hod tbe
qoaipluiuts not b^'Ooire so numerous that we
(felt it our duly to d^i so.
1 We should not bavo suspecteJ the Post
HI,ister at Wheeling, had the citizens of
Ohio not been soshnniefully used, by every

Sossible petty annoyance ui that place that
became unbearable and unpardonable.
Many n. poor fellow from Ohio has U
qis bones to bleaob oo mountain top and

France and meilcoi

Our renders will find in our i

What the French Emporor js going to do
with Muiico is a matter of no email interest
io the United States and all Europe. Ol
course there ore a. thousand aoggestlons.
but wo do not think any of them are ol
(nuch consequence, as but one of them car
troo. and that one may not bo io tho pro.

Meiicau affair Is of tho last impor-
) us, if we ever eipeot to be ono na-

I, lo uU appearanoes. do not give the
subject, much, if any, praotical attention,

very neatly published '' Regula-

Un last Saturday there was at Alton, iivo

ill s west of Camp Chose, a neighborhood

horse and mule race. Col. Moouv, who

has a sort of indeGnito iooso as Command-

of Camp Cbase. sent a file of twenty

liersfrom Camp and took mihtary pos-

«lon of the hotol at Alton, and forbid aoy

oiti-en from buying nt the bar. onder penalty

of being arrested. This ia tho gteBlest

Tbe New ConsUtutlon of lllinoiti.

We fear tbe New Constitution of Illinois
has been defeated by a heavy negulive vote

word arrived that Chicago bad given 900

adopted. We have few returos. ood shoold

There in a most rem&rkable stillness at
Washioglon at present. The reasons for it

il would indicate that all things are not

AlloycH have been turned toward Kiob-
mond forlhe past week wilh intenso inter-
est, as il is pnlpablo from all wu croi learn
from both sides, tbttt iwo immense armies
ore coucentrating there. The real numbers
on either side aro partly guessed at, its
oil (tuIAj ore contraband, from n supposed
just ueaussily. Tbo object of tho Com-
manding Generals in oot publishing their
nnmbers. and peculiar positions, is, of
course, to keep It from eaoh other. But the
everlasting negro has been used pretty
ca'ootually to c«ov6y pretty much all tbo
news tho Confederates desired as regards
onr strength and position. They have but
to send otT a " contraband " into our lines,
wilh a few long yams, of whose slave ho
was, and what a cruel master hi- bad, and
his ingress and egress was certajo. There
is 00 longer any doubt about tbeae "poor
negro slaves" having been used effectually
by tbe Confederates, relying upon tho gul-
Lbilily of the negro gympnthiiers to take
kiodly to the bait.

Gonerale McClella.s and Halleck
took strong ground from the first agains!
permitting those negroes to come witb-
b tbo lines, hut ?o far as il was posiiblo
to disobey these orders it has been done,
and abolition dononciutionsagoin.stthe Goi
erals in command, and eulogies on ttose
who disobeyed the ordora have been ateadily
kept up.

That reinforcements to soiaeoonsldorablo
loont have been sent reconlly to GonoriJ
McClellak, ia very certain, and that prob-
ably equal re info re a men la to tbo Confoder-
ormy before Richmond has also arrived,

great battles long looked for ore frequently
uncertain io tho lime of their occurring
to the resuits atterwardf. Thoy may
Eor to-day, to-morrow, noit week or
ver, as wo have frequently seen before.
This does not modify tbo interest the public
lake, however, io the ootlcipatloii. Somo
believe, or pretend to believe, that Ihe bet-
llo at Richmond will sottlo tho quusliou bo-
leen tbe North and South. If tbe North-
n army ia beaten tho Southern Confederacy
ill bo acknowledged, and if the Confederate
army ia whipped, peace will soon follow.
These ideas are both fallaoious. Mon who
tulk in that way do oot kuow what thoy are
talking about, und never have truly uuder-
lod Iho e.itent and terrible eborwiteref
.-i war, as it hns been carried ou.
He who looks for peace in INK we
fear will be greatly disappointed. We
i!d wish it was bo, hut wo have got so far
off from tho point at where peace of any
kind onn bo secured, that we havo got to
lake many reforms first in tho views, ne-
ons luid purposes of those io autborily.
If there over was anyone in tho Norlb

Oakaloosa sends greoling
ciUea of tho West. Our speeiol i-leclion
took place yesterday, nnd abolitionism,
with a boasted majority of one hundred nnd
fifty, to-day monrua (ht. defeat of its pel
candidate by a majority of Ikirly-fivt in fa-
r"r of A. h\ Seeborger, Esq., a firm and
trae democrat, who is now Mayor of our
yoanf; andprosperoua city. It ia tho mora
gratifying lo democrats because his oppo-
nent was the regnlar repubticQU candidate,
and, though there is aa bolter Union man
in our county than Air. Setbcrger, he wns
yesterday branded by abolition diaunionisla
as a seceHsioniat. There is a good timo
coming in Iowa. Look out for Denioorctio
triumphR. Des Holnes, Dubuque, Ottumwa,
Oskalooeo, and other towns have started tho
ball that vill orueh abolitionism and vindi-
cate true patriotism. Uaiiabka.

THE BAD).

My Berr Old Jobhoa ; lluikmypen

in hand to rito you a few hftsty lines. Tho
Legialalfii- has got dun willi its ponderns
labers. Wo dun a mity silo of good for the

aatoiiishen what a sild of pro-slavery oosaes
tharo is in the State. About siity thousand

Sotilioned Hi to psfi a law for to keep our
ecr oullernd brntbera and sisters from cum-
ininlo tbisStntP, ha t oar Eepublicon friends,
tho mcmberB of tho legislator, cum up man-
fully ond recorded their Totes feroinat aooh

infamoos taw. Tbo good Umo for which

b and you and other sound Republicans

have praid and Inhered, and for whioh our

patron saint, John Brown, poured out his

last life's drop on tho God acoased eilo of

Virginny is fast approaohin. Hundreds und

ibousands of our cullered hrutbers and eis-

ihin to the State of Ohio to enjoy

the blessona tho Republicao party has so

long strove to gain for em and so freoly of-,

forcdem. Thore is n grato menny men

a off and getten killed in th^ army, and I

happy to say that for every one lost in

t way our popelashun will rcsenvo ut

least three beluvcd Afticims.

Wo have districted the Stato eo that tbe ,
locofoooa will cum up abort on Congrosa- ,
' noit election. It was vary ne-
do tbia for if we hadent the loeo-
focoB might get a majority in Congree
then tha wood stopped abolishin sli

id levied no tai for to buy alavea
mastorg what was willen to set thorn free.

eaidea doin that tba wood bring tl

close, (tharo b — I oo fixen up I'oasee,) and
Ihon all our rich army contracts and govern-
ro en t speculations would be gone forever. A
> Congress would ruin the prospects
beluvud cnllered brutbera, iJirow
thousands of good Itepublicans out of offes,
and bring the country to peoco by commit-
lon the government to the degraded niggcr-
drivon policy of Washington, Jefferaon,
Madison, Monroe, Jackson, and them other

Hers. That iH what wa will never Mubmit

; tbia country must be all frco or burst.

The locofoco merobers tried to got uu on
a hook by pusson a law to allow tho eolgers
" ) vot« in camp tho sumo as thoy do in Pen

Ivouy, Now Jersey, lllioois, ico., but wc
beat em on Oiis. Inthe States 1 hove named,
the eolgers nearly all voted tho locofoco
ticket, and from what I con find out tho aol-
gers from this State wood do tho same thing
■f tha hiid n chanco lo vote. Mr, Smith
Hr. Hills and fiovero] other good Itepnhli.
jansmadoElorioua spoeohee ngaiiiBtallowen
tho ragged solgBra to vote, and for this tha
ehood bo sent to Congress.

CoBgress is doin the thing op brown, and
I helcavo that it we ken secure a majority
of jist eich men in the neit Congress we
ken keep up tho war until every slave in
Ameriky is free, and all distinction on nc-
cODnt of cullor banished from our country.
Ob, that thei year of Jubilee may ijuiokly
com wben tho whites and blacks will fondly
embrace iind kiaa ench other and lay down
together head to tail and tail to head like a
'-Mr of pigs.

FaroLCra and dlher people growl about
Congress B?sec?ien tntea to keep them big
government ■.'Qoora, boy slaves and stub
lite. Well, a man what will growl about
that haint got no sense- Why, if you git
all tho slaves fr^o it will make laborers i
lepty tbut yon can hire em for ton oeuta
a instead of yayen em from aeveuty-fi'
cents to u aoUar aa you now do. Uut if
tbare was no coin in it every man who luves
his fellers ana is sound on the gooso ahuod
be willen to givo all be's got to bind down
the devil und establish a heaven upon earth,
will be when humane of various
cullers ueaociate together like tbe various

illered sheep, hogs, horses, cowa, dugs,
&c.

Sum sUugy oussea complain sbout payen
tuxes to purchaso our African tiruthers and
sisters, hut any man what wood complnno
at that hsHent n proper reverence for hia
God to eouy alarming olleot. Besidej
getting our cullered brutbera and sistera
tree it will maik tho slavebftldera so mnd
that thn will keup on filen and wo wilt Lave
tho fun of shoolen cm.

No Cbrislian will core for the koat if we
only git to kill Ibo Secoebera. What if our
meu dur git killed, tha would hnvo U> die

.\lAnTiAi, Law at Nhiv OntBASa- — The
imanGenerals had iostruotions from tho
Senate to treat tho Tanquished with clemen-
cy. PriTsto property was roapeotcd while
the public domain waa enlarged. Tbo ous.
, religion, and hubita of the people
not supplanted by the tuBtituliona of
tho conqurtroru. Tbo Senoto reconciled
subject Btates to Roman rule by respooling,
uoh a?" possible, their inBlitutions and
ler.s. By this wise policy the Roman
consolidated his conqocsta. Mo power
ever [ess disturbed by insurrecOon In
its distant prOTJnces. Tbe Federal Ameri-
cans aro novices in tho art of roocnoiliation.
They bold out tho sword, and only tbo
word. Geoernl Butler, io NewOrlcaus,
cminda us of tbo Commiseioecra of tbo
French Convention, who issued proclamo-
ma and prescribed oooditions inoompatiblo
tb any degree uf personal liberty, and
ised all Europe in resistance. Pechapa a
city liko Now Orleans, famed for its rowdloti,
shonld for a timo bo plaocd under restraint.
All tho vongeanco of tho South is oonoon-
truted in that oily ot half breeds. Tlio
kniio and the "tooth pick" aro therein
constant requiBitlon. and there, loo, Iho
Ynnkt'o " is held in deeper obhorren Co
lan in any other part of tbo South. Tho
Federal commander.-) knt^w what they hnd
tu oipect from tho demeanor of tho Mayor
id tho Boowia of the populace, Then,
onernl Butler's force was comparatively
loU, and threotennd by Beauregard if Iv'
aboold ovorcomo Halleck at Corinth. Il
hia duty to make every provision foi
aeoority of tho city and tho safety of
his army, but ho oioccded all reasonable
bounds iu tho aevcrity of bis injnnt
Tho Federal Sag is a sacred symbol which
must bo guarded from all prnfonation. Not
ealnto it as you pa.SB by is a crime to bo
verely punished. Wo wonder what does
the aeusitiro Republioan mean in saying
that "all persons must trout tho Federal
dagwith the utmost deferencn ondrospect?"
Aro people to take off their hats or oaps for
it 1 Sopposo an insolent half-breed laughs
aa ho paasea the flag-staff, is that evidence
of disroeiwct, and to be punished with the
fire of a ploloon? Much wi-er would it
have been to lot the flag take care of itself
and not raise into gravo offenoa of Statu
it of dofereueo to o sorop of bunting.
The policy of counaollin^ tho city author-
ities to make returns to the General of nil
public property is less questionable. At
the outbreak of tho war iho Confederates
seized a large amount of national property.
They appropriated what was not theirt", bu)
tho properly of tbe Central GovernmenI
at Wosfiiogton. Any of this property in
New Orleans might bo claimed by the Gov-
emmont, and the persons in charge held ro'
sponsible by Gen. Butler. But bis procla-
mation procneds further, for it insists on all ;
■'Slato"aod "Confederate" property bo-
lag returned lo hoiid quacttra ns national
property. Wo suspect tho leturna will bo.
blanks, and whatever Uo would appropriate
ho must eeiio and hold by his aoldiora. He
carries his meddling spirit into placss of
busincsa or amuEemout, and even of relig-
ion. All shops and stores must bo kept
open in tbo usual way, uotjcr heavy penal-
lio=- If a man closes his shop, or the man-
ager of 11 thcatro or dancing saloon consid-
ers a atuto of martial law unfavorable to
his calling, and shuts tho door, woo to tho
traitor! General Butler will not toleralo
Buch roouaancy. Hia brave soldiers must
oujoy oil tho pleasures ot thu pkasaut capi-
tal of tbe South, and, we suppose, at the
least possible oipenso. This is wotae than
the Austrian ordera in old times in Venice.
Tbo theatres were forcibly kept open, but
CD person was to bo seen thero oienpt iu
Austrian uniform. And so in matters of
religion, Geoecal Butler, like tho ttnasian
General at Worsrtw. demands that tho
ehurchoa shall ho nlnays open for religious
service — nut that his aoldier.s aco Iho most
piuua of mcu, or earo one 6g whether they

e shut or open— but to beguile hi "

ith the belief that order reigns in
Orleans, it, as be phrases it in tho Gonoral
Order, " serviooia to ho held in tho ohurohi
I in times of profound peaoa I "
A fellow feeling dienoses tho General I
tenderness for shin plostors. IIl» could not
well ignore Confederate notes iu Iho Soul
tbo Federal Government issues its ow
cart loadj iu tho North. But tbo clrouh

of tho Confedetalo apeoios Je limited to
the poorer classes, "ao long as iuconsider-
lerouns will reoeiro them." But, sup
ho wished to prohibit tholr cirouliitiou
could ho accomplish it T Promises U
nro Iho solo oircalatlon, not only in
Orlenna but throughout tho SouUiero
Slates. Gold and' ailvor aro vuniahod. Un-
less tho Geuerol would raduce eooioty to tho
original Btato of borler, ho must permit tbo
iplo lo e.ichango commodities tbroogh tho
[rumeululily of tbo only medium tboy
MCMS. A free press in tbo Sooth would
, luok well by Ibo side of a coatrlcted
,,.,s3 in tbo North. Tbo nowapupera might
publish ihiuga which would rovcol aalalo of

Jackson, who made his appearonco amid

dcnfening cheers and loud buzKOS, and, after

' introductory vemnrka, procooded
eipoae the lino of policy adopted by tho
Black RopublicauSi their Administration and
Coagreaa, since old Abe'.H inauguration, and
especially thoir disregard mo nt of the Con-
dtitution. Uo approbended there was nc
diaaonting voice as to the duty of Demo-
orols in tUia great crisis, although thoy
woTo denoanccd and stigmatized as traitors
rtnd rebels for upholding tho great bulnark
of our tiheriica — Tire Comstitution —
which, bo was sorry to eay. had been
often trampled under foot by the leadera of
the Black Republican party. If the doo'
trinos of JeCTcrson and Jacksoa wore to be
perpetuated, now ia tho time for aotion and
organization, as we will soon have to deter-
mine whether wo aro freemen or not. We
may as well take the 6f(ic,t.-bull by the horns
as look him in Lhe face. Tbo Blaok He-
publican leaders deceived the people,
through tho professions they made, on the
stump and in the rostrum, of rigid economy,
indstriot accountability iaovory department
of the federal GoTernmenl. These pro-
fessions secured the election of thoir nomi-
iV {c\7 toonihs after the inaogurationi
corruption, pecoiation and hypocrisy were
in full blast, insumuob that their olBoe hold-
ers showed at once their incapacity for the
high positions th^y had attained through
deceit. (Seo the re^rts made by Bepabli-
oan committees to Congress, CKposin;: the
frauds and corruptions of Cameron, Fro-
mont Ic Co., who aro still kept in responsi-
ble mid lucrative offices.)

Tho Republicans were very boisterous
about tho non-disturbance of slavery in
that part of tho country where it was recog-
nized and protected by tho laws of both
the Stato ond Federal Govemmente, Not
a year had elapsed before it was
abolished ia the District of Columbin. and
that, too, uft^r Lincoln's oft-repeated de-
claration, in hia debute trith Douglas, that
ho would not favor tbo abolition of sli
in that District, unless the citizens vol
favorof it at a Bpi'oiol election. Old Abo
is h"uc$t on the nigger question, and that
is about his only qualificatinn.

We havo been impressed in reading Gil-

rate statement of the mtlbods of the Apos-

ty. Tbo ncoouut is worthy of special con-
sideration, if for no other reason, ond ns a
proof of the sameness of human naturo in
its depravity in all ngOH, nnd an encourngo-
ment to Christians, iu Ibe fact that tho fiery

Sieondly. Ho toot all oc«aalons of eipoiing
bnatiaos nnd their religion lo ridicule. Do waa
DiDu of earcifitic wit, aad priocipally turned it
ui that way. When ho read the Scriptures, if bo
:eming coot radio lion, ho made it
-- -an hyperbolical osprossion, he im-
proved it lo blOBphoray. Ho scorned at tbo sim-
phcity of tbo apoi'tlcs and proplicti', whom bu rc-
""■ejented us ignorant and illitorato fellows.

Tl-irdlij. Hu sought by all means to bring
Chrialiuns low, and lo weaken and destroy their
intomt: bo btnithed Ibem out of all
places of honor and authority; he obliged them
■iher to do saeriece. or to qnit Iheir employment,
ad be locopable of civil olfices. Thus Vuleoli-
iao, who was afterwards emperor, Ibiow up his
office aa Colonel ol one part of the guards of Ibo
palace, and submitted to banishment, rather Ihan

ordered that no Chrisliun should bo u mogiairate.

pen i.enseculion, jet ho connired at those who
orseeulcd Ibe Christians. " lie glories oft what
iodness ho bad shown lo Ihcso Galileans, beyond

what thoy bai met wilh from his predecessors.

Insleid of bauisbmeiit tbey had been siiat h<>u)e ■

stead ol being pi undt red, their cooliscaled coods
bad beL'Q restored lo them by ediuts." Ho ob-

ho would not, therefure.grjitifytliem wilh that

Fifthly. He eadeavorcd especially to weary
out and discourage Ibo olorgy wilh bad usage.
'■''■ cniuposB this uiore ellcctually, he seized their
ome, took away their allowances of com, ra-
iled tho laws in tbeir later, und mode them
jIo to bear butdeni ia tho eicil coorls. Whoa
Ibis would not do, he removed them by fraud
or force. Thus Alh:iDasius boiog brought hoiuo
Aluxondrio, ufter thu death of thu Kmperor
Coostantiui, was obliged by Julian to loavo it
. He bad a particolar spleen at this honest
as appears by bis letter to Eedicius, Gov-
of Egypt, which is yet eilanl, where bo
" Though you \vrite uothing of othora. yet
re yuu ought lo wriloof Alhnnasius, that
enemy of tbo god*, ihico you tdow out decrees
- ;aiQ.t him,"

Siilhlj/. He gave all mannerof lasietance and
encoumgement to the Jews, in contempt of tbo
Cbriitians. Ho hated both; but wheabofoond
Ibo Jews wora hke to bo instrumcnls to proniole
purpose, ho ealli:d for IJiem, spoke teudurly to
them, pitied their miserable and afllicted Plato,
relea led tho tribute potupoa thorn, desired tbu
help ol their prayers iu bis Pi:rsian wari<, and
ivroio to Iheui a kind (elter, yet oitaol ; in tho
wherot be tells them ; ■' This is lo what you
ought principally to attend, that when 1 shall

tion, ood Ibo holy cify of Jo^usalem, which you

and bis refusal to obey tie same.

In some respects tho war Is doing us good.
Wo bate passed through a variety of pha-
ses of political doctrine uid prnctioo within
a brief space of time, and nil kinds of now
principles nnd reform notions aro urged on
na for adoption, but tbia much is certain,
that wo havo reformed, at least for tho ptos-
ent, out of tbo minds of out people thu
'■ higher law doclrino " which originated re-
bellion in the land. Hereafter men will un-
derstand that Ibe law ia the law, nnd norlb-
em rebel or southern rebel will find no crowa
of martyrdom reserved for blni, beoaaso ho
conscientiously resists Iho government of
tho United States, and Iho cieoution of tho
laws. Tho conservative men, who in formoc
years have conatuitly contended for loyal-
ly, ngninat disloyalty, havo tho ealisfootion
of kooning that in tbeir long contest thoy
nro victorious now, go far ns the Norlh is
concerned. But wo arc by no mOBDa cot-
lain that tho victory oan bu hold. Wo find
rebellion already IndioaivJ by Governor An-
drew, of Mussaobuaotti, uud bnokod Up by
soino of tho strongest rndioal papers.

Men should be warned of tbo dnftgor of
these Hentimcnta. W,- have frequently
shown bow closely allied in opinion woro
northern and southern radicalism. In fact,
ubolitlonism and secessioniam aro ohildion
of tho samo parent, both are onemies of tho
Union nnd Constitution. Tho foundation
principle of abolitionism is cumily to gov-
ernment. Wheii tbo Journal of Comvttrce
was contending in 1(1,^0 for tho supremaoy
of the law, tho radicnl Uepublioans of that

and an American virtue. Shocking as tbo

It should be well studied and unilerstood
by every American citizen. It enumeratoa

down axioms that a fruo people can never

at the Britiah Prince anathemas, which was
a guarantee that its authors ondert tood their
rights and dared eipress them.

We mutt keep these "self evident"
truths ever before us. We must guard them
from neglect, harm or indifference- AVo
must keep the light of the post Ut as upon

the CoiivenliuD unitedly t.i our support,
t was done with an eiprcsaion of feel-
ing that the writer of that elanderons article
louldnot forget.

Judge CnAh-E7, however, did us gross in-

juilioe when ho plead so lustily not to lot Ihe

personal quarrels of others interfere with

the Convention ! There was no " personal

larteV in the case. Tho attack of Manv-

:!JH¥ upon 08 was wholly unprovoked, and

no to throw n firo brood into tbe State

Convention. It could havo been for no

her purpose, and Judge Chanev ehould

ive known it or said nothiug. The truth

he did not wunt to know anything.

The Ohio Slale Journal, of course, ccmes

thoaid of the iSfo(«r(iafi. and anya that

because we do not defend ourself from the

■srnon'j charges, therefore they must be

taken OS true. Now, we give Iho Journal

and Slattsman both fair notice, that we are

: only able hot always ready to defend

self from any charges that either of them

joseto make. They must not lay ony

such flattering unction to their souls.

We did not uotico tho foul and infamous
charges in the Siatesman lust week, because
know that that W03 all they were made
for at that time. .\ Convention of Demo-
orata wero about to meet here iu a few days
from oil pnrls of Ihe SUle, and wo were

■ion to be foot-loo-'e, so that we could
oDJoy ini.'iing with our old friends in tho
delegations from various parts of tlio State,
p are satisfied, however, from the uses
menarc making of tho charges made
by tho Stalezman, that it will be necessary
sloojposc theii' falsity and wicked-
When we do so, the people will won-
Rbether tbo uiaii who made them was

e aru glad that the Convention look
tbo groond that the attack of iheS/uftJmnn

ise that wo may innke can net be con-
sidered by any one as involving the intor-
of 'bo party. Wo shall, therefore,

ithpitce in the manner it merits, and al-
3 upon personal groiinds. Wo hope
Ibat tbosB of tho party who did not partioi-
paio in the County Convention will under-
itond our position and tho modn of our hav-
ug been placed iu it.

Wo publish, this week, tbe Act to estab-
lish Agricultural Colleges. It is a disgrace
tho present Congress, if anything could
disgrace that body. It ia a scheme of reg-

plundor, and will never bo of tho least
advantage to any one. It first plunders the
general gov emmout of many millions of acres
of land, iind then plunders tho State Troasu-

;o secure those lands. It plunders the
Stolca and Territorios where these loads lie.

speoolalive company who got into trouble

great Agricultural College, and after spend-
iug a large amount of money UHclessly, they
hit upon this scheme to replenish their pock-

It camo out in a report made by the Ilong.
Jostpfl Holt and Robert Dale Owen to
tho Secretary of War, that Senator SiUuoNs,
of Rhode Island, had entered into a con-

Wo oro thus gelling a poep, little by litU*,
into this prison house of corruption. WbsD
grave Senators and RepreRontatlvee,
whom Iho peoplo have entrusted the affairs
of tho country, ore thus found iMirif; ihdi
ijluencc. to aid in swindling the public
treasury, 'ind putting tbo procoeda of thcij
rruptofficial acts into their breeches pook-
9, in sums that few men can over expect
to possess after years of industry, is
ol the most alarming and melancholy tigas
of tho times.

And what is still worse, if anything cao
' worse tbuo a corrupt Ropreaentolive, is
the fact that tbo poor and honest people «(
this country havo got to bear heavy tor-
lens of toiations for generations to cDme,
n consequence of theso corrupt men nod
public thieves in high places.

movement, was not convicted, but the Sec-

UtLLVER was a violent abolitionist, for

l3*Tlie Washington tHarsaya (hnt Hon.
C. L. Vallakuuuiam was handi^omely ser-
ouaded, at bis rooms, last Thursday evening,
by nu Ohio Baud. Tha affair passed off
pleasantly. This is nuothcr te^timotiial to
the bold statos man ship nnd unwan'riag de-
votion to tho CouBlitulion of (he represeut-
ativo from thu Dayton District.

I do not mean by
^tioD OD the part of
IheGecierol tiotetnuieul; but I wish to see the
law (ako U* ordinary coune, without any extra-
ordinary preparation lo euforcoit; and I sbDuId
deprecate the employmentof force, except (o giro
cflect to tbo lawa, by niding tho proper ofRcera ol
tho conrta ia thu eervico of Ihoir process. This
will giro timo lo our erring follow dlizena of
Sou tb Carolina to roQect on their course, aud
(his, I ahould hope, would bring them to a aeoso
of their duty.

The rroclniuatioo hn liad thu ciTect in tliu
South, which I had nu doubt from the firaC, it
would have, to clnsperatu tho people of South
Carolina, and greatly atrcngibeo their e.->uso in
Snrginin and tlio othor Soulheru Statee. Tho loie
mctaage will. I fear, increase this feeling. Do not
understand mc tu queatiooiog tbe motirea wbich
led to Ibeie measures, or aa oxcuBing, iu any do-
. the conicqueocee which bare followed tbeoi.
\io\h mcoiurui ahould have produced vory dilTer-
vntell'ecla; but wu muat, in iinticipsliny reeulto,
couider men as they nre, and not us they
should bo.

General Jackeon hiu great popularity in (ho
South, and on Ihia ground alone, I do not itv hnw
nay oue can regret bia re-election. Bnl there ii
danger of too much actioa. I have more feura
fiom Ihia, than from (he unconstitutional edzcta
oi 'South Carolina. Stroagly aa I leol oppoied to
their principle), I bud rather see the carifT-law
suspended in (but Sla(e, for a teiiMn, (ban that
onu drop of blood ahould bu anilt. From thia
siispcnaiua no laaling injury could reiult to the
Union, and llicioslrumenta who had obstructed
Ibu law would be ovoatunlly held reapoii^ible to
the cuimtry. and to individuals who had sud'ered
damage; butif thoFederjl loices should meet in
couBict those ol South Caiolina, I shall dodpair of
ingbarmooy realored. A cai o may oo-
liich a reioit to physical force may he
nccetaary against n pare of our fellow citlzona,
but nothing abort of tbo reiolulion ol the country
nbould juitify lucb a procedure.

Suppuic, during (no late war, aa army hud
been marched agaioit Uoaaachusetta and (he
Hartford CoareDtion, what would have bean tho
cunaequencea 1 Tho Unii>a wuuld haco been dia-
tolved. Of this no one ean duubl. who tuok a

jswere pursued, and no oxtriiordinary

action of Iho GorerDmcnt was directed againet
any of the refractory States, Time was eiv
lor rotlrction, and public luatiment applied (
oeceiaary correclion.

A bill ia now before Ibe Senate, which, if
'hull become a law in its present ehapa, I k
may pruduce much mischief. If we ahall bo

clusion, that our Federal Constitution moa

opinion of Charles Samncr, the malignant
apostate, Henry Wilson, of Judas uiemory,

er of Massaohusetta ; of Horace Greeley,

The defendant contested both points, and
justified accordingly. The plaintiff was
cast on both issues— tbo court decluriug,

Thia oujo was taken up by writ of erroi

the Supremo Court of tbe United Slali;

below was fully sustained. The Chief Jus-

Taney iu delivering tbe opinion of the

Court said :

That it rested witli tho political power to de-
whether tho Charter Gniernment had been
displaced or not, and when that decision was
made, the judicial departmeot would bo bound to
take nobce of it afi thu paramount law uf the
State, without tho nid of oral evidence or Iho ei-

rise to a apontaneous convention, claiming
to be represented by a majority of all tho

Tbe advocator of power see iu this para-
graph, or imagine they see, an nulhority in
tuvor of the President esercising a suspen-
sory power over the writ of Habeas Corpus,
and, moreover, that it briogs tho Cbiuf ifua-
contliot with hia opinion in the Mer-
Tvman caie. But nothing, 1 apprehend,
couldbe more fallacious nnd unfounded, than
ither of tbe«n assumptions. It is not pes-
„.blo to bring n judge iuto this dilemma, ex-
cept where the OMee are alike in their

givon to the old government of tho whole

Tho Luther case has taid nulking of the

10 not of peraonal liberty, in any aspect,

rested— a Habeas Corpus obtained, and its
service made on the party holding the body,

have been anaiogons in thole nature, and a
decision in ono might well clash with an op-
posite deciaion in tho olhur. But iu Ibis

Tbe plain fact is, that the cafe of Lulher

plunged into civil war: when the President de-
clared bis intention to maiotaia the supremacy of

defeoaivo lioo in rear of " Twenty-Mile
■oek," less than £5 miles from Corinth,

water induoed me to retire at my leisure to
abetter positian. Uoreover, if Gen. Pope
had attempted, at aoy time duiiog tbe re-

[ would have given bim eueh a lesaoQ as
nould havo checked bis ardor ; but ho was
ireful to advance on efUr my troops bod

Tho retreat was eonducieil with great
der and precision, doing much crt '" "
u offieeee nnd men under my ordei
uat bo looked upon in orery reapeot hy
,0 country as equivalent to a brilliant

lien. Pope must certjiinly have dreamed
■ having taken 10,000 prisoners and 15
000 stand of arms, for wo positively ntvi
lost litem. About 100 or 200 eirigglei
luld probably cover all tho priaon.'rs b
took, and about 500 damaged musketa a
irms ho got. These belonged t'l a cor
vftleaceat camp, four miles soulhof Coriolb,
evacuated during the night, and wero over-
looked oa account of the darkness. The
actual cumber of prisoners taken during tbo
retreat was about eijual on both sides, and
they were but few.

Major-General Halleck must ho a very
credulous man, indeed, to helievo thonhsurd
atory of "tbnt farmer." Ho ought to know
that tbo turning of two or more cars on a

deed. Urn, Halleck did n'A capture nint
locomotives. It was only by tbi- uooidenlal
destruction of q bridge before .-omo trains
had passed that be got jfi^i'i en^'inea in a
dauiaged condition, the cars Imving been
burned by my orders.

It ia indeed lamentable lo see bow little
our enemies respect truth and j j!jiico when
speakiog of their military oper.ilions, es-
pecially when, through inability or over-
con6drnce. they meet with deserved failure.

If Ihe result be '-all he desired," it can
be said he is easily satisfied ; it ri'mniua to
be Boon whether his Government uud people
will be of the like opinion.

Inttestthatallwo lost at C-rinth and

Wo publish in another colomn tlo pro-

TIIt. Vallaiidlghani,

This gentleman gives tbo JlepublicanH a
ust deal of trouble. They have tried to
:pcl him from Congress, but had neither
proof nor the courage to oarry out their
nefarious purposes. They have tried lo
slander and lie him doivu and out of tho
pole of public favor, but so for Ihey have
made a- aad failure of it. No man in the
Slato has more reason to feelgratefol to bis
VAI.L&.sniOHAU. He

r any man bad reason lo feel proud
at the reception ho received at the hands of

tbo ConvonUon on tbo -lib. He ar-
tivod hero on the night of the :ld, aud nus

The Purposes of the Tax

Wa ioBott an article from tbo Now York
Herald on tho effects of tho Tai Bill
^leicipapers. That thiaTai BiU has been

arranged in all its parts aa b
great wealthy eslebllsbmente, and break
m cnterpriso without capital, Ib no doubt
i. Thi-s is Ihe ohotacler of all tho
_ lalation " of the present Congress from tho
beginning to tho end.

The great question now is, con wo elect
Congrces with nerve and honesty enough
I so change Ibia lax Bill as to sa
rise und industry against the cruebing
weight of favored and privileged oupilal.

Tbo Jlcralii Is greally mistaken about
tbo effect cf Ibis Bill on tho West. What
does not eeize hold of directly by tbo
X gatherer ut your door, ilseii^es by iudivec-
jn through every avenue of purohoso. For
stance, the aam« Congress which passed
ibis disgraceful tus law, is now filing up a
Tariff, which will give tho eastani establish-
ments ihe power to put upon their manufac-
tured arlieles all that they are Ia sod, and
hence tbo jieraons who realty pay the lai
oro the consumtrs, and aa they largely i
side in the West, it is the West Ihat n
suffer the moat, ea tbey will thus bj bi
dened with Ihe direct uud indirect tnies.

To show that the Htrald bo.^ got tho tr
ideaof lhej/)iri( of tbii ta.i law, as it o]
rules in favor of large capitalists and
againsi enterprise and labor without capili

This is tbe character of tho Bill all tbroogh,
and we have some curiosity to see whether
anybody of men, not directly interested in
capital as antagonistic to tabur, will support

so hebous a. meosuro and vote himself Iwi^

Kcpublicanisoi Always Wrong,

The Kepublicau Adminislration does n
icem to possess one single practical idea
-egard lo the nature or tbe powers of tho
government they have been, by the pcopU
called to administer. Thoy act solely upon
tbe principle, that whatever they desire to
do they have tbo power to do, forgetting
that they are iho more agents of the Stales,
id also that their powers are clearly do-
led ici tho very instrument creating tbe
agency or trust; yet at all times having tho
word Constitution on their lips, seldom quo-
ting its language, or making a correct appli-
it if tboy do. These remarks are
auggoslod by tbe past folly and tho present
apparent purposes of tbo party to divide the
State of Virginia. Tho Coustilutloii, in
tho 4lh Article, section third, says :

" New States may he sdmitlod by the Congress
intu thii Union, but no aetv Stale shall bu turoi-
cd or created within tbo jurisdiction of any otber
Stale; cor any other Stulo bo furmqd by thu
junction of two or moro Staler, or piru of Elates,
uilhout tbe cun.cnt of tbo Legislatures of Ibu
Sbilejcaocerned.aa well as of tUoCongi

It is proposed to create a. Stato out of tbo
western part cf Virginia, and admit it intc
tho Union ; anil it is said that this can bf
done in subordination to Iho Constitution;
I ono argument is, tbnt Congress has a|.
idy recognised its sovereignly in that, iti
Senators bavo been admitted to seats iu the
d Slates Senate. Now, if they are le-
gally entitled to seats in that body, it is be-
they represent tho entire State of Vir
If they do not they have do mor<
right to seats than has the silly author o.
the Helper book, a non-resident and without
an election. Bat tho quesliOQ may bn sum-
med up in a out shell, and Ihus easily do
tormined — Virginia is either a sovereign
Stato in tbe Union, or is out of tho Union
and a member of the family of nations or a
component port of some other nationality.
If she is a member of our Fuderal Union,
then fiho is cntilled lo all tbo rights of any
other Stale in thd Union, and there is n
nathority conferred upon tho Federal Goi

ask the Journal man wbul beuefit tho Unit

few Democrats who blindly went into thi
so-called Union party, either benefitted tbe
country or been benefitted themselves?
Have they uot been kept in the buck ground?
When there was any good fat contract to be
let out, or a good paying office to fill, has
not honest old Abe given such to bis Repub-
lican friends? Has ho not turned out hon-

gave it to us. Those ara priies worth every

eiid in our remarbB on the fourth, they are

siltos, and that wo would scorn to advocate
measures not as wholesome and potent to
protect political oppononts in all tbeir just
rights, as ourselves. We would be thonkfol
tj hear them Eay the same and meet us in
that spirit — and the only spirit worthy cf an

Well, Eo much for the Deoiocracy — now

Tb«f also saw and heard, and hare read all
tkit occurred on the 4th at the eastern por-
tico of the State Capital. Fluent in lau-
pago and reckless in cipreasion, they have
fieroised that freedom of speech and the
prsM. which we are sorry to say they seem
disirous of preventing others Oiercising. —
It is Q coriouB ■' free speech " which is only
latended for one lids of ihc question .'

But thoy spoke — and wo ate glad of it,
iir it gives us some clue to their ftdings,
Lt not opinions. They were very indignant
at Erst, but have cooled down admirably. —
i'rum this no draw the conclusion that they
"ere alarmed for the aiicces.s of their can-
ilidat^s this fall, and conceived that they
saw the hand writing on the wall. They
falsified the record, and, with a free will, not
f Qtiroly new to them. '■ pitcht^d in " to indi

From

draw tho conclusion that
■iiat was said and done on tho 4th was not
libjectof being met by reason ot argument,
45d the cnly chaooc left for our very escel-
'^nt, good-naturod, chrietiau ItepubUcan
frioads was, to roEort to mtscepresentstioa
uid peTEonal abuse. This does not look
fiTorablo t-i their cause. In ordinary poli-

■ilh a sneer, or questions of tho highest
i^gQitude settled with vituperation. The
Mple have had c surfeit of that kind of
'■iog and are now Buffering too severely
ffim the past, to continue it in the future.

In the midst, however, of the storm and
'"'J of the Itcpublicaa papers, we find two
^■oiols mixed up with their rago which ore

thereforo toko its denial as aathontic. But
ono word in the ear of the .huTnal. If tho
Republicans, as a party, do not intend or
desiro to be held responsible for declarations
made by tho rank and file of iU less prom-
inent and busy memliers, would it not be
just as well for those who oaaume to speak
for thot party as leaders, and whoso words
amount to something, to open a school of
instruction to leooh their followers to use
language a little more in accordance nith
prudence, decency and what tho Journal
and those who profess lo speak the standard
dialect of liepublicaniam. will approve of.
This will sftvo tbo Republican party from
many charges now made against it. and the
Journal from the trouble of denying them.
Tbo other denial is in a letter in the Cin-
cinnati CoBimerdai from this city, and on.
dorsed by editorials in that paper, vi^ :
That the Republican party never intended
to take away the liberties of the people, the
white people, if you pleaso, of tho Northern
Slates. If that has not been their intention
then how can the Editor of the Commercial,
or any other llepubticao, eiplain thooonduct
of their party for tho past yeor ? Will
they now tell us that free speech and a free
press has not boen tampered with for the
past year ? Will they now teU ns that the
freedomoftheperson bus not been interfered
ffith, and men's rights aad privileges, oven
their personal safety, have not been threat-
ened ? Can thoy face the public and deny
these things without a blush? Will they
now tell us that oil these acts were not the
fore-runners of still greater despotisms ; and
but feelers to see how far they dared go,
and how much our people would standi
Has not the groat bulwark of English lib-
erty, adopted by our fathora, tbo Habeas
Corpui, been stricken down by the "one
man power," and apptaudeO lo the echo by
a Congress elected by the people to guard
their Constitutional rights, and by tbo Re-
publican presses and speakers everywhere 1
Have men not been eeized in their houses
and at the mid hours of the night run off to
prisons, without trial, without notice of the
pretended crime they bavo committed, and
oftiT months of close contioement set at
liberty " without a why or whorefore ? "

Have newspapers not been mobbed, seiz-
ed, confiscated aud the editors ruined, im-
prisoned, disgraced and driven upon the
world, without a hearing or tho possibility
of compensation for losses ? Have not pri-
vate individuals, on tho mere motion of pri-
vate personal malignity, been waylaid in
tbeir walks aboat their premises, seized,
forced lo take an oalh by irresponsible
devils prowling around the neighborhood:
and tbreateood with death and the destruc-
tion of property ' Hundreds if not thoua-
nuda of such cases bavo occurred in Ohio,
and yet editors now tell us Ihat it never
was tho intention of tho Republican party
to destroy tho liberties of our people. If
not, can they osplain these things ? Do
thoy believe now that their mere declara-
tions will be taken as satisfactory proof
that there was no design upon our liberties
La all this — a design wholly dUtiact and
foreign from saving the Union and suppress-
ing the Southern rebellion 1 Let no ono
deceive himself by oommingling ono thing
with another, of entire opposllo meaning.
Wo met hundreds hero on the Fourth,
old men, and Democrats as true and faithful
as ever lived, lo Constitution aad country,
who bad sons in tho army— some two or
more — ^who had been Bubjeot to personal in-
sults, threats and uhuso from the Republi-
can stay-at-homes. Someof thoai threat-
lod with the halter, others with the dos-
uction of their property, and nil dcnoun-
■a by these negro worabipers, as sympa-
i::ers with secession and disloyal lo the
luntry .' There was fito iu the eyes of
these old men at that Convenlion, nut to bs
mistaken. Wo admit this — wo saw, wo felt
All felt it. all saw it, and wo do not
express any surprise at the terrible volley
of wrath, falsehood and personal malignity
poured upon tho Convention by ibo Repub-
lican writers aud presses. It was all that
was loft them to do \ it was all thoy
could aoy, they must say something. They
olaim this freedom ot the press and ol
speech — and all we ask is simply tbo privi-
lege of meeting falsehood with truth — vitu-
peration with reason. This wo sholl bavo
— this tho Constitution and the laws of the
country guanmteo us — and this that Con-
vention of bold, bravo men lesolvcd should
not further bo trifled wilh-

If, therefore, it bas not been the purpose
of the Republican part/ to use this most
terrible civil war as a preteit t« eeizo npon
tho liberties and property of this people,
let them act eo as not to leaso tho proof
behind them that auch waa thatr purpose,
"Qire us liberty or givo us death," is an
old dcolaratioo, bat it is navartholess not
withoat moaning when pressed from tho

moutha of intelUgent men, by the ruthless
tramp of a despot.

Men, themselves unfit for freedom, nover
10 thij language nor perform the acts nec-
essary to preserve it when c'njoyed, nor se-
it when about to bo wrested from them.
If the spirit is not in thom all else is labor
lost.

With great propriety and truth might tho
editor of tho Fremontl.O.) Messenger, aui
every other editor, endorse The Crisis as
the most sound and iafiuential journal now
published in Ohio — the power and inHuenco
of its worthy, talented, uncorrupted and
long-tried editor. But be might alsn have
osserted that The Crisis has gained a repu-
tation ns being tho etaodard Democratic
iournal in every Slole, from tho Pacific lo

may that editor say that " when Col. Sam
Medary controlled the columna of tho Ohio
SlaUsman, he was a power v-ilhinihe Slate."

the Slatesman had in those days at all to be

id not edit the If^^imt to suit tho tastes
of radical abolitionists and bi'gua Demo-
crats. The genuine Democrocj being en-
couraged by the results of the late muni-
'ipal election in Leavennortb, began to talk
f a State organization. Tbia state of
things did not suit tho Lane wing of the
Abolitionists, nor the bogus democracy,

element; hence ihe couclubinu no doubt
that Ihe hiuinr must go uador at all
haziards, ootwitbeluniliug there was not a
more loyal paper published in the Union,

getically conducted. But the truth was.
(Jol, Taylor with a masterly pen laid bare
tbo rottenness and iniquity of the Abolition
hordes iu Kontai. Murderers aad jayhawk-
-— were manfully and fearlessly exposed

ivo bribery in every shape. Unmanly
1 cowardly throats he djjregarded, al-
<ugh often made. But the truth is, this

lemooraoy of Kansas to a aeniie of their

But let it he romembered that thero was
uotber clement besides the ultra Abolition-

that press. And this was then, and is now,

dement that has for some time fmed with
tho Jim Lane wing of the Abolitionials,

active to bring about this stalo of

■hIs who bavo fused with tbo Jim Lane
ing of the Abolitiouists, will bo known as

any sound priooiplca of revoluUon, an
that the puaition so often assumed, thi
' any given number of States rosoh
revolution, they necessarily have th
right to revolutionize by reason of an b^
sumod oiclusive right to determioe for then

untenable. For the right of revolution is n
moral question, nod whether revolution iu
any given case, bo right or not, la not to be
deteimined by a single parly lo Iht casci

termiaed by the common sense of mankioii

I have published soveral other nrtioles in

The Bontimeats contained in those arti-
cles I have not ohunged. I still adhere lo,
indorse, and approve them.

Since the publication of those artioles,
certain dootriuea have been avowed by the

K resent Administration, ond its eapeoial ad-
Brents, and certain acta have beon porpe-
trated, and Certain ominous tendencies have
been sliowni which, candor compels mo toad'
mil, I have not been able lo approve. In
the spirit of constitutional freedom, (with-
out which our instilutiona would be of no
value,) I have oppressed, in very emphatic
terms, my dissent from aomo of tho opin-
ions, acta and tondenoies of the pres«nt
Administration. This was not because I
do not lovo my country, and do not wish,
tho paramount object of political desire,
preserve the Union ; but It is just heoau!
do lovo my country, and do earnestly wish
that tbo Constitution may bo preserved oa

is, and the Union maintained m it kus.

In tho language of the creed of the Union
party. I am for the " Union, the Conatitu-
lion, ond the enforcement of tbo laws." I
believe that the Union is essential to the
CODstitution, and that tbo Coustitutionie
equally essential to the Union.

As a bond of Union I prefer the Consti-
tution of tbo United States to a party plat-
form, and, for an oipoaition of its meaning,
I prefer tho decisions of tho Supreme Court
to tho opinions and acts of any sectional
and political parly whatever, whether North-

Upon this point it ia easy lo deduce from

itboriae a pioolamntion of what is
denominated martial law, but what, in reali-
ty, is no law at all. If tho doing of these
things ho indispensable to tho life of the
Government let them J)o oiousod as a ne-
cessity, but never justified as American
constitutional law.

I believe that, although Cougress may
suspend tho privilege of tho writ of habeas
corpus when in cases of rebellion or invas-
ion the public safety may require it. the
President can never do it— and Ihat both
f "ngreas and Iho President combined can-
Taiofully diapenao with an original judi-
cial constitutional warrant of arrest.

1 believe that IhoConalitulionguaranteea
(certainly to anoxtent not incomjiatiblo with
Ihe life of the government) freedom of
speech and of tho press, of the necessity of
duo proccsa of law prBliminary to depri
lions of ■' life, liberty and properly," ■
of the right to a speedy and public trial by
jury, and of tho right to be informed of tho
nature and caoso of an accusation. And I
believe that tho present Eieoutlvo of the
United Slates, und his aubordinato officers,
have, in numerous instanoea, uiilhoulan'j
paramaunl laic of national necessity, viola-
ted tho perioaal and individual rights of the
private citizen. Nor could I over see upon
what prinoiplo that grand and glorious cor
poration— " the United Stales of America'
— could plead the troasonablo conduct of
the Southern secessionists— that is the very
offenoea of orlminnia on trial at the bat-

ivo not believed that Congress (even
0 granted that it bad tbo conatitutiuoal
') could, in good faith, and aa a matter
of impartial justice and policy to all the
States alike— both free and slave — abolish
slavery iu tho District of Columbia, or
compensate the owners of slaves out of the
joint and common treasury of the wholi
Union. For, in so doing, they certniuly
exact from tho slave States an involuntary
contribution cf money fur a partial destcuc-
lioo of an institution In which thosu States
are vitally iutecosted; and tbua. by an ac
of seolional arbitrary power, compel tbosi
States to hurl u blow atone of their most
cherished institutions, if not Ihe most cher-
ished of all their iustitutions. I noi utterly
oppo:?ed to a spirit of eacroacbment upon
"' igbls of either States or individuals,
lavo always thought that in attempling
vide this Union, a most stupendous,
Irigbtful, and uwful blunder was committed
by the Cotton States agoiost their own pe-
culiar interests as woU as against the wel-
fare of the whole United States. Aod I
.indered that those States did not see
luundury line of separation between
uifederaoies could not bo amicably
agreed on, oven if disunion wore otherwise
' ' iblc — and that it is not Ioes difficult lo
satisfactory boundary lino of aopara-
Uuu than to coerco the seceding Stated to
allegiance, or to reconcile the parts ol our
distracted country.

It ij plain from examination, in one view,
of the Stato Coostitutlons and tba Federal
Couslitutioo, that they constitute a sort of
dual system of government, the component
parts of which are eaaeolial to each other,
and yol, as far at possible, were designed
to be Boparato from and independentof eaoh
other. In a word, each Government, State
and Foderal, is sovereign for cerUin pur-
posea- the Federal as to all powers (fi;/e-
gated lo it, and tho Stato Governments aa to
all powers reserved to them respeotivoly;
but yet it makes perfoot, theoretical, aod
practical governmental sovereignty. In tbo
working of this complex machinery, it was
no mote designed that the Fadoral Govern-
ment should abolish a Stale Government, or
intotfero with State inatitutions, than that a
State Government should throw off tho
Federal Government, or interfere with
Federal institutions.

It was naturally eipcotod, hawever, thot
in practice an oecaaiooal conUict of juria-
diolion would occur, and, accordingly, pro-
vision has been mado in tho Federal Consti-
tution for juat suoh an emergency. Fur it
is therein provided that " the judicial power
shall extend to all cases in law and equity,
arising under this Conilitution, iht laws of
Ihc Slates, and treaties madt, or ichieh shall
be made, under ikeir authority." "The ju-
dicial power of the United States ehall be
lied in una Supreme Court, and iu such
erior Courts as tho Congress may, from
time, establish." "This Constitution and
■ laws of Iho United States. wulcH soall
MAOB IN I'UBHUANon THBKEOE, and all
alies made, or which abaU bo mode, uu-
r the authority of the United States, shall
bo tbo supreme law of tho land, ico., &c."
From these citatlona, it is evident that, whilst
statutes passed by Congress— not in pur-
tnce of the Constitution — are not valid
rs; yet, in the very nature of tho case,
iro must noeda he some common arbiter
decide questions of confiict, and the de-
cision of the Federal Courts, wbon pro-
nounced in reference to tho boundary lines
of Federal and Stato authority, should, in
ivopiniiin, bo respected and obeyed.
I am, and have alwoys been, a cordial
inion man, aud I am especially opposed to
thasecBSBioB of Kentucky, from tbo Union,
and I sincoroly and earnestly " "
iho rebellion may speedily ceaae
accord, or else bo put down by tho strong
arm of lawful power.

Avast majority of thi, American poopti
an resolved that, coiuo what may, thn
"land" of which tha Couatitution declares
itsolf to be the supreme law, shall
divided— that ooa and all the people of the
Unitod States have an interest in tba vh*U

' ,a coofiicis of tho past week. No
mailer what olbar fact may ha doubted,
disputed or denied, this fearful and damn-
' g responaibilityof the abolition politioians
universally admitted.
Among the opponents of General Mo-
Clellan, none ware more active, iiioru bitter,
vindictive, a few short wei'kdago, than
Sam- Wilkoson, theo the Wasbingroa cor-
respondent, the lobby agent, tho chief of
the infamous Contract Bureau of tho New
York Tribune. Oor readers will recall the
oharaetoristic letter in which Wilkeaon an-
nounced tho clusiog of his jobbing agonoy
at Washington ; and ahorlly nfter the pub-
lication of this letter Wilke.-ou, satisfied
with his oontraci spoils, or disgusted at the
lack of them, lell Wosbiogton, and joined
McClellan's army ai the Tribune reporter.
A very short eiperienoo in the army served
to couvert Wilkoson from an opponent to u
friend and admirer of General .MoClellao.
In tetter nficr letter ho baa endorsed our
views of the war, aud assured and andeav-
tho Tribune editors that
tbeir hostility to McClellau was hostility to
tho Union cau^o, and Ihat the Tribane and
abolition supporters, iu and outof Con-
gress and the Cubioet, were the worst ene-
mies of the ciiuuiry. The 7'ri6u'i(oditora,
however, have ri^garded Ihe warnings of
their own currespondeut aa lightly as they
bavo our repeated admouilions. For (bis
they doutless have a motive in their
est in guu cuntruots, which ais only valuablo
if the war coutiuue?, and tberefgra they
still endeavor to continue tho war. . In last
Thuraday'-t Tribune. Wilkeson. who, no
longer baa contracts lo nurse, tells the ab-
olilionists and the public, in a loiter which
ve transfer to our columns, that tho Ai
jf the Potomac '■ rogiaters vows of \

"tbo crime against the nation whioh has
made this change of base and front imperl-
ily necessary ; " that " poliliciiaa and

aud that tho persons who are responsible for

'ith tho sucrod right of an outnumbered
American army to demand help from their
countrymen and promptly reoi-i'o it, col-
loleral questions of fitneas, of vigor, of

and truo words- These are forts whioh
we have repeatedly stated. These are

Negro Riots Id Toledo.

The attempt of the grain and pr«Jace
carriers to introduce nogro labor at Toiedn,
at a lower price than tbey could emplftj
white men, resulted last week in a fearf,a
riot and tho loss of one or two lives, sever.i
wounded, and a number of negro shantisi
torn down. If it were worth while to talk
to cra.-,y people, wo said enough last win-
ter to the Legislature then in session,
warning them of tbe consequences (o (he
peace of our Sla(e, if tbe attempt was per-
mitted to introduce free negroea into placfg
of labor in tho steodof white men now em-
ployed.

Tbe policy of (he Republican aa-
thori(ies to tarn this war into the freeing t-£
tbo slaves, would leave Obio open te U
filled with blacka, and the conflict between
the rocBs was inevitable, unless some law
was passed to anticipate tho influi of thoie
negroes. Over forty thouBoud potitloneri
sent np their prayers to tho Legislature, (o
paas a law without dnlay, upon the suhjeolj
Many of these pelitionors had always voted
tbe Republican tiekot. and it was supposed
thot they at least might be listened (o by
tbo fasion memborj. In fact, iu many
places tho signing of these poliliooa was
almost unanimous, only a foxv bitter, pjeui
Abolitionists rofasing to put their names bj
the paper.

But the majority in the Legislature trtat-
'd these petitioners with as much contempt
ind ridicule as it was sate for them to re-
turn home upon. The result baa been, that
many thousands of negroes huvo been eont
into Ohio, ond they are rapidly taking tto
place of white labor nt reduced wages, and
when tho white man complains be Is told to
go somemhtTi eW. to find leark i; he ii nu
satisjitd .'

That some people may doubt whether
any vhite man could thus impudently in-
suit the white laTjorers. for tho bone6t of
negroes, we quote from the Toledo Btadt,
a Icoding PiOpnblican paper:

"Tbo facta detailed in oar local department to-
day, present a case whicb deisaads the prompt
otMDtion.notonly of tho ontborities, but of er-
y citizen. Tbo attempt being made by mea
ider excitement and paiiion,to prevent tbeem-

vgroes. U ii their priaiigis to stek trnptopt^tt
■Iscichtre; but they have no riRbt Iu say that ci«-
jroea shall not bo employed."

We hope every white man who ^bors lor
1 hving will keep tbis vulgar uud insolent
wlice to Ua^e, in his pooket, so that he can
:ompare it with what tbe Republican elec-
lioneerers will soon bo telling him aboat the
itreet comers to get his vote, ond also as
ividence of what be may eipect at IhsL-
hands.

Tbe greatest lever used to distract and di-
de our country has beeo the false and an
-scriptural doctrine of tbo equalily of the
ices, red, white and blauk, or the e.^uolily
.; mankind, as it is commonly called. For
tho proof of the falsity of this doctrine sec
Ihe (jth verse of the 7ih Chapter of Deuter-
onomy, nod 1st Peter, 2d chapter, I'th and
10th versos. This last shows that tho Ja-
phetic or white race stands to-day a chosen
people, as did Ihe children ol Israel in [ho
past dispensation, nnd where you read, my
people, the Israelites, in tho judgments
ibrcatened in tho OldToatamentSoriptoroa,
you have only to substitute ray people, tbe
Gentiles, chosen in this dispensation by God
to shew forth His praises. &c.

The destiny pronounced in relation to the
race of Ham or the slnve race, immediately
after tho flood, os recorded in the I'tb chop-
ter of Genesis, has been and is now being
literolly fulfilled. Nor is it in tbe power of
man to change their dostioy.

Many "fflhe teachers" pretend thnt they
have been called or coramissionBd to cliangu
tho destiny of the nogro or slovo race. —
"Albeit," God baa not called ooraont them.
OS is clearly proven from this fad recorded
in the scriptures : That before God designs
to change any one of Ills institutions He
announces it iu advance, so tbat ull who
read may know ; for tbe scriptures ate not
of any private in terpt elation whatever- —
For proof of this see Isaiah, 42d chapter,
id Otb verses, and 2d Peter. 1st cliap-
tor, 20tb and Slst verses. The Olh verse of
laolab, 42d chapter, announced tbe change
intbeorderof the prieat hood, which "made
>f ntctstity a dianf^e aUo of the law." See
Hebrews, chapter 8, verses II to 14.

oijDir'j,

Yesterday, during the eioilement follow-
ing the firat report of the fight before liirh-
tnond, the particular cnemiCB of General
McClellan betrayed their bitterness very do-
idodly. Eioiled groups collected at every
ornor. In front of this office a very large
crowd collected, ansious to uaoortain tho
. An eicited controversy soon sprung
In an nniniuted controversy between
rs. Milton S, Patrick nnd U. F. Uad-
duek, the former oxpresscd himself very
freely and unreservedly against nicClellan.
Mr. Uadduok rejoined warmly. Mr. Pal-
' ^k, us a clincher, then declared that with-
a very short period , "Secretary Stanton
had told Mr. John H. Donham that McClel-
lau waa the greatest traitor in the North,
-md that all the material information oblain-
d by the lebela of Federal movements was
furniiihcd them byMoClellan's family."

Mr. Patrick is a well-kaown citizen of
Chicago, a man of strung political prejudi-
it may be, but still so far above suspi-
that wo dare not ijuoation his word
without further evidence. He asserted Ibe
fact without any equivocation or reserva-
tion that Secretary Stantou bad told Mr.
Dunham that McClellau was a traitor. Mr,
Patriok is of course only responsible for
the story as it comes from or through Mr.
Dunham, Mr. Dunham is a responsible
and highly respectable merchant of this
city, lately President of a bank, and wo do
not believe tbot bo would state that Stanton
accused McClellan of treason unless he
aure of the fact. Now, if Mr. Dun-
did not bear Mr. Staotou say tbat Mc-
Clellan was a treilor, let bim say so. Tho
ibarge has been msde puhlioly on the
atreels, aud Mr. Dobuam has been named
a>> the party to nbom the Secretary un-
bosomed himself. If the story is false,
tico to the Secretary of War, as well as
MoClelluD, requires tbat it should be
promptly branded aa falsehood. If true
uud tho Secretary of War did say that Mc
Clellan was a traitor, then the Secretary of
War is himself a criminal for allowing a trai-
tor lo have command of the army. Let Ihf
tacts tome out.

Tho Tiina says :

The first patent regularly isaixed for the

eslablisbment of tba office of poet-laarcate
wasdated I&30, In tho sixth year of Charles
I. By this patent, it was provided that this
:oiirt dignitary should receive yearly the
lum of £100, besides a tierce of conary
fino oot of tho Boyol cellars. Tho troubles
of Ibo Civil Wars, however, retarded the
Deration of this regulation, and Daveuant,

hia office than the title. HewaatbaBUO.

court poet to James 1., and probably
enjoyed some pension, nas never formally
endowed with tho lanroalo wreotb. Dave-
nant held tho office till bis death, and was
succeeded by Drydcn in lGt>6, who bad tho
title conferred upon him by letters under
the privy seal, audTennycon 19 tho twelfth
in poetical descent from tbo famous author
of ■' Aleiander's Feast." The following is
a list of the twelve poets- laureate since Da-
venont ;— Drydeii, Shndwell, Tate, Rone,
Ensden, Cibber, Whitehead, T. Warton,
Pye, Soutbey, Wordsworth, and Tennyson,
Some of these names are so well known,
that their bearers need no mention here;
hut a few are entirely unknonu, and a few
particulars may not be uninteresting. First,
then, Shndwell, This laureate wos a dra-
matist, and great favorite of Lord Hoohea-
ler, and obtained the office in 1G6S, ivheo
Drydou was deprived of it on account of
the Ilcvolution, Immediately upon bis ck-
pulsion, Dryden wrote upon the u 11 fortunate
bhadwcll, the celebrated "Mao Flecknce."
It was completely aucceasful, und the ridic-
ulous object of it died in 1G92 from taking
an overdose of opium, Nohum Tate was
next, He is chiully known from ajolnt pro-
duction with Dr. N. Brady of "The Metri-
cal Versions of the I'salms," which first
appeared in 1C98, Poor Tate was ojooted to
make room for N, Kowe.whose "Tamerlane,"
,d translation of Lucan'a "Pharsalia"
owell known. Ensden, who succeeded,
passed over by all the biographers, and
obtained the appointment aolely by Interest.
Whitehead, wbo followed Cibber, brought
tho laureateabip to its lowest ebb. Ilia chief
I was entitled " State Duncea," and was
ire upon the ministry of the time. He
atlaobed himaelf to " Babb Doddingtoo,"
" ized by Pope, in bis most vigoioas man.
and through hlsiotoreet held the luurcl

dplea laid dowD 0* ne undentood ibem, and 'nc<
carding to the grent founder of Democracy,
Tiomoa Jodereon— I say I am surprised lo hear

Uenllemen, if jou trill permit mo, I will take
this opportunity to indulge in a porsoaal lematk
or two. I am oaConbhed at you. gentlemea. to-
^y, lo hare the holdne^g and dariag to defend an

Why am 1 called i traitor 1 Beenusa I baUere

Bos the Democratic party erer beeu ontrue lo

so ram : I was cradled by recolutiooary parents.
But 1 look lo the CoastitutioQ to guide me in the
changes thai eomo apoa us.

ThJore wo* a time when they would bum John

mit, m oil goremments. when men will be puaia ti-

why! Because- politically, wa dirter with Ihe ad-
mtniatrotioo in authority. I ask 30U, auppoaiag

stop ) The aubiect is inexhaustible, f bare
aakod and plead ler the malnteaonco and contiB-
uanco of tha organitation of this old Democritic
party, that I have knowa from my youth. In my
amdy of revolutions, and eBpe'^'*"F "o^h ai this,
and particularly tin* in inner in which tha ciiil
part waa prweouted, 1 have looked ior tha bine
wben we would be looked lo and prayed to ai the
last hopeof the country. If the time oeverahould
come when we could step in and aa^o the coun-
try, the orgaoiiitioa would do no harm, fur it ia
a peaceable and connlitutional organization.

Thero is nolhini; riotous in our party— thoro ia
no thioc)a){ and lying in us, at least beyoad what
ia oalurnl to human nature, and oot eves aamuch
OS can be found in olhor quarters sometimes I
havn believed tbe time would como when the
whole face of thia rebellion would be changed,
and il it does come. I lear vou, my Uemocrat-
io friends, will be the only Union men left in
the country. (A Toice — They are all that are

nations, and the authurities at Waabiogton shall
ask you 10 submit peaceably lo the diviaion of
lhe?e Statea, who Ihea will bo Ibe disloyaliita aad
dieunioniatal But wo will let that poiu, for I fear
an unhappy condition not far ahead. I received
to-day a moat eitrnordinary cooQdcntial letter,
from a aourcc but littla elided, warning us uf
tbo hour— not thirty dnya, petliapi, distant, when
it il believed (bat a proclamation will bo iiaucd
from WaWigton, asking ua northern people to
submit to adirijion of thia eountr>', (Kevcr—
not a bit of it) laah, then, if this be the fact-
nod I don't pretend to state whether it is or not--
wbo then will be in favor of the diasolutioa of the
Union; The very men with contracts in their
pockets, who baio grown rich by tbo miafortuaes
of their country in Ibis war : and Ihey who have
carried ropes to bang those »bn never breathod
a disloyal breatb, willhavo to give the ropes over
to UB. (Applause.)

I tbank you, geatlemeo, moat heartily, for the
manner in which jou bare hnaored mo as Presi-
dent of this body ; and I think that I will prove,
before many months, that of all meniu (bia world,

Since our arrival on tbu James River wo have
not been molested by tho enemy. Reconnols-

tbo enemy are surrounding uswilh a complete
tordon of their troops. Wilh the exception of
tbe tiltlo territory on v\'hich ne are encamped,
tbe^ bold tho whole of the country between tbe
Cbickabomioy aod the James rivers, from Rich-
mond down. It is stated by descrlen and pris<

that it is General Leo's intention to uttack Mc-
Clellan before be is reinlntced. and either annihi-
late bia army or cvmpel bim to surrender If
tbey bavo enough troopa tbey might succeed in
doing tbe lormer. They can certainly not do tho
latter. But why no we not reinforced 1 The
rebel attack upon ua can not long be delayed,-
Our troops will make a gallAnt resistance ; but
can tho hoal result be doubted when it is known
that the rebels aro four timea our alreogib ' And
if this spot is doomed to witness Iho annihilation
of what remains of tho Grand Army of the Po-
loroiG, wbea may no look for tbo suppression of
the rebellion' Certainly not io this campaign.
It will re<iuiro fully a year to put into tbo Ijeld
another army auch aa this wm. It ought to be
distinctly understood at onco whether tbe War
Dopartment iaiunda to reinforce un or not. If
not, tbo remnant of tho army ought to be at
onco withdrawn, at Isatt to Y'orktown That,
indeed, would furnish ua witb a aplendid base of
operations, and an impregnablu position. This
spot, I malntaio. under existing circumitaaces,
furaiahea neither. From Y'orkinwo lo Furlreia
Monroe our lines of fortih cations atill remain, and
may yet bo useful. If McClellaa could transport
bis army tbore, aad il tbe coantry , in tbe mein-
time, responded to tbe Pfeaidaot'H proclamation
for 300,0UD troops, by October MoOlellao would
be ready to advance again on Richmond with the
certainty of success,

I learo from pritoners and dcsorlers that the eo-
omy ara in undisputadpoisealonol the right bank
of Iba James Bivor from Richmond down to tbo
mouth of IbeNansemond River, and that tbey

ittoropting to so arrange the drafting
that it would only fall (,pon certain men.
God liavo the man who would thus attempt

Gc-n. Jim Laut' Again in tbe Field.

Tbis individual who appears to be kept
get up disturbances of some sort or
other, now announces that he is autboriaed
ty tbe autborilies at Wai^hiugton to go to
Kansas and raise two Keobo Itsgiments for
lar. He proposes to locate bis camp
the Missouri lino and collect tbo ne-
groes into his command. Ho is also, so it
slated by Telegraph, and Lane is great
Q the Telegraph wire.-, to draw on Waeh-
igton for arms, equipments, ralioos. iVc,
&o.

So the negro business is fairly inaugura-
ted, if this Gen. Lane is worthy of belief.
Wo do not believe that Geo. HALLEcg will
agree to any such foolish arrangement, but
' a will see. Some men seem fitter for the
ad house than official positions.

WnsUlngion "Ou Dii."

The Washington correspondent of tho
New York Herald, gives the following ;
" In political uiattors the on die ia, that the op-

toro any drafting abali be ordered, ao tbat a (uf-
ccical number of eiempte aboil be left behind lo
cuDtrul tbe utectiona."

Thirty thousand sound, healthy llopubli-
cans appointed to office to avoid drafliug
and carry oleotions. That will do, as the
Herald appears to bo tbo especial organ of
tho appointing power.

FOREIGN NEWS ONTHE WAR AND TARIFF.

EiiRlish Advice.

Altogothef. the position of the two hos-
tile commuailies is one nhioh should iu-
dueo every man of good aerao and kindly
feelings ot the Norlli to reconsider bis opin-
ions. An armistice and then a aottlement
of Ibis deadly quarrel by a peaceful separn*
tiori, is tho only solution of tho difficulty
which preaouta iteelf lo tbo minds of Eog-
liab statesmen, and. we may add. the slalos-
men of other countries. In this mollor, wo
may say without hesitation, thut all Eu-
rope is unanimous. At tho time of tho
first rupture, when Secession, and tbo depth
of tho feelings thut inspired it, woro little
underst(«>d, tTiero was in this country a laroa
party, and iu Krnnoe and Germany a still
larger party, which was indignant against
the Southern leaders, aud cheered on Ibo
North to what was considered tho easy
overthrow of a political conspiracy that
had usurped tbe Government of a deluded
and bewildered people.

But wo would ask any ono conversant
itb English society whether those parti-
ns of the war bavo not become gradually
wer and fewer, until thoy now are all but
tioot. Whatever may be the sympathies
of any jiersoo, however muob he way con-
demn slavery or tbe princtpio of Seocasion,
or tbo means by which certain members of
Mr. Buchanan's Cabinet conspired for Its
success, yot ho feels that all that is past and
gone, and that tho question is now whether
a war of oiterminatiou shall bo carried on
by one community against aootber. This
journal, which has throughout believed and
noted on tbo belief that animosities and op-
" ig interests deeper than the mere ques-
proBounced upon by the Chicago
Platform have sundered two sections of tho
ilepublio, may now assert that its views
have received tho tardy sanction even of
the staocbeat opponenia of slavery aud the
most consistent well-wishers of tho Ameri-
a llepnblio.

If the Amoricana desire to know what
Europe thinks of the war, lot them not ask
British aristocrats orcontiuentnl legitimists
id ultramontnnes, hot that seotion of Eu-
pcan society which has during years up-
held their principles of policy. Let them
' ike tbo opiaions of tho liberal party cither
1 England or France us to tho righteous-
[lasmidthe prudence of carrying on this
war, and wo shall he perfectly content if
they abide by the verdict. If the Americans
hnd been wise enough to let the South go
freely nt tha first, it isquite poaaiblo that by
'his lime it would have been seeking rc-ad-
nitlance, for tho Union party was then ate-
lity and not a fiction, and reaction aoainat
tbo polioy of tho Secessionist leaders might
have taken platje. Although it is too late lo
bopoforsuch a reconoilialiim. yet the North
may even now, by a dignified concession,
avoid tho terrible siioriljco unj the intensity
of hatred which a persisteuco in the war will
ily produce.

The moral lo bo deducted from these ecenlsia

that if any section of tbe late Union was invaded
by the rest it would oaaii redly give the samoproofa

Let IU examine, then, and ace how it ii that it

nCPLY or THE MAJORITV

Tbo following paper was yesterday sent
to the President, aigned by the majority of
tbo Dlaveholdiug States :

Wasihsotoj,-, July 14, 1S62.

To i\i PrciidtBi ; The undersigned Bepre-
i^ntatiTesoI Kentucky, Vi rginia, Missouri and Ma-
rjbiad.ia the two Howe* of Congress, have list
I'lied tuyouraddrcu witb Iho profound seoiibili-
'y naturally ioipirvd by the high foutco Irum
nhicb it emanated, Ibu camestneia which mark.
<d its delivery, ond Ihe overwhelming importaoce
"I Iheinbjpctof which it treats. We have given
■t a most respectful consideration, and now lay
wfore yon our responie. We regret the want ol
uoa has not pennitted us to cuue it more per-

We did not feel that we would be justified
•oling for a measuro which, if carried out, won
odd Ibis vast amount to oor public debt at a m
ment when the Treasury was reeling under the
enurmoui eipenditurei of tho war

Again, it seemed to us that this reiolutioa was
but tbo annunciation uf a sentiment which could
not or was not likely to be reduced to an actual
iBDgible propoiition. No movement was then
made to provide and appropriate the funds requir-
ed to carry it into effect: and we were not en-
couraged to beliote that fUods would be provided.
And our belief bas beco fully juitifiedby aobfe-
qtient events. Not to mendon other circumitan-

~ il is quite sufficient for our puiwse to bring
aur ootico the fact, tbat, while this resolutiou
. - under coniideration in Ihe Senate, our col-
league, the Senator from Kentucky, moved an
amendment nppropriating $500,000 to the object
therein desigauted, and it was voted duivn with
great unanimity' What confidence, then, could
wo reasonably feel that if we committed our
eeties to tho policy it proposed, our cuostituenli
would reap the Iruita of Iho promise held out ;
and on what ground could we, as fair men. ap-
proach them and challenge their support I

Tho right to hold slaves is a right apperfiuaing

all tho States of this Union. Thoy hnro n

right to cherish or abolish tbe institution, as their

sles or their interests may prompt, and no one

authorized to question Ihe right, or limit its en-
joyment. And no ono bas more clearly afTirmed
that right thonyou have. Your inaugural address
does yuu great honor in this reipect, and Inspired
tbo country with conGdence in your fairness aud
respect for the taw. Our States are in the enjoy,
muut of that right. We do not feel called upon
defend the iaitilutioa, or to affirm it is one

llicb ought to bo cheriahed: perbupa, if wo wero
make the attempt. »e might And Ihat wa differ

en among ounelves. It is enough for our pur
pefo lo know that it is a right : and, so knowing,
we did not see why we should now be expected
to yield it. We bad contributed our full abate to
relieve tbo country at this terrible crisis; wo bad
done as much as had been required of otheis. in
liko drcumstances ; and wo did not reo why aac-
ciSccs should be expected of ni from which oth-

<eo what good Ibo nation wou

Such a sacrifice submitted tons would not have
strengthened tbo arm of this Qovemment ot
weakened that ot the enemy. It was nut necca-
tary as a pledge ol our loyally, fur Ihat had been
manifeilc4 beyond n reasonable doubt, in every
form, and al every place pouible. There was not
prvbability that tho Stales wc repre.

you have felt lbs neceaiity of Interfering lo arrest
Ihem, And even tbo pnisago of Ihe reiolution
lo which your relor has been ostentatiously pro-
claimed as tbe triumph of u principle which the
people ol the Southern Stales regard as ru' -
lo them. The effect of Ibieo meaaurct was
told, nnd may now bo teen io the indurated state
of Southern feeling.
Tu these causes, Mr. President, and not t .
niiaiou to vote for Ibo resolution recommended
/ you, we solemnly believe wo am to attribute
.JO terrible earnestness ot those in arms against
the Government, and tbe continuance of the war.
Nur do no (permit us lo say, Mr. President, with
all respect to you) agree Ihat tbe ioalitulian of
Bisrety is " the lever ol tbeir power." but we nre
of apioion that " tbeluver of tbeir power" ia the
apprehension that tbo powers of a common Gov-
vernmont, created fur common and equal pro-
tection to tbe iotereila of all, wilt he wielded
against Ibe loslltulioni of the Southern States,

There is one other idea in your address we feel
called on to notice. After atating tho fact of
your repudiation of General Hunter's proclama-
tion, you add :

THE DRAFTING LAW.

bavo made but slow progress in settling oui

created great disiatisfaotion among our
selves in ihe North, Wo bavo failed to con
olliato B single foreign nation— in foot, every
nation in tho world aeems ready to give
blow and denounce us as little bolter tban
ignorant barbarians, and at last we have the
certain aigtiB that tbey inlond to intorfei
with oar civil Gommolions and proclaim wi
against us if ws do not submit to Ihcir ei
ncUoua. This ia just tbe way matters stand
and tbo future is terrible with magni-
tude. Wo must confess that we have nt
faith in thoso directing affairs at Waahing-
ton, jodging tbo future from Iho past,
Thoy seem rather stumbling along, hall
erect, now down, now rising, hot never per'
pendioular, and never fiied in any purpose
leading to a aure and safe conclusion.

Wo shall soon bo in too straightened oir-

imstances to trust to Ibis sort of stumb-
ling forward nnd decrepit gait. Insincerity,
trick, falsehood, or tho withholding of Ihe
real facts from the public — facia which tbey
should know, can not longer subsorvo any

This was plain talk, and after a terrific

feiiled and the evil day of oivil war post-
poned for four years. Would to God il bad

tional strife. How many ihoosands to-day
who voted for tho Philadelphia platform in

see their arm wither than bo guilty of tho

But the deed is done and now it is a
question bow far we are to slill follow theis
false political lights before we have sense
enough lo bait, right about face and bring

there is no future for our country us it

think that those who are tesponaible for Ihie

The daily papern, therefore, which madi
long comments on that affair had tbtii
labor fur nothing, it seems.

MOROAH has retired from Central Ren-
tucky. and Cinciunat! is safe, as welt a;
liiploy, A:o. But the news from Westerr
Kentucky and around Nashville is not at
salisfaclory. The Confederates wero n
last accounts scouting within seven milei
,of Nashville, and no reliable news of thei
iiumbcrfl or purposes. Tbey aro in Ihi
of Gen. BiTELL, and destroying a groat
deal of Government property, wagon
boata. cotton, 4:0., A:o., along the Tennessee
River eost of Corinth, while our forces nre
scattered at various points protecting towns

id keeping open railroad commnnicatiou.

Tbe trouble in concentrating our troops
grows out of tho mistaken policy of at-
pting to establish local governments in
all the cities and little towns aa they on
occupied. White men ateswi-i'n in, or a
oalled tuku tbe oath, negroes aro pro
tectcd in crowding about those centres, am
if our troops leave, these " loyal '' peopli
are left to tbo tender mercies of those whom
tbey have offended. Uence every olty u
little local town organization thus " swor
in "requires the protection of our troopt
or all must leave, destitute, and follow tho
army, as ooourred in Florida. All this
■' swearing iu " from top lo bottom, is thus
found lo bo only a burden to ouraelvea,
without any profit to any one, until perma-
nent governments can bo eslabliBhcd, anij

tbo peace in tho setilementa. Surely thi
forctd oaths make neither better citizens i
patriola under all these oircumstanceai and
terribly ivoakons our strength by
it all over tho country without tho
of concentration for ita own protecti<

These oaths aro also not unfrequently
BO worded that men who would willingly,
if not gladly swear lo support tbo Constitu-
tion and laws of tho United Statea and tbe
Union of the Slates under them, are nol
willing to swear lo other mattera put in,
which can be of no use to a Union man, an<]
must Bubject them to very serious com-
plaints if the other parly should happOn Ic
got hack again- It does not pay to keep
two or fhreo thousand of our soldiers sta,
tionod at different points lo watch over tw(
or Ihrep hundred of thia class of local citi-
zens, with as many more idle conlrahandl
who have run off' from their masters oni

Mr. Stanton is no everyday orator. lie

long been a leader among the leading Abo-
litionists. Ho Is fully instructed in their
whereof ho speaks. Years

the Union can be uttered by an Abolitionist talk :
with the most perfoct confidence of person-
al safety. Ho knows his men— ho knows
tbo chnracler of the adminjatration which
chance has thrown into power ; and I should
not bo surprised to learn that this oration
had been repeated in Ihe Smithsonian Insti-
tute with President Lincoln on tho right —
the Vice President on tho left, and Mr.
Speaker, of Ihe Hoose, at tho feel of the
orator — somewhat in the manner of tbe dis-
unionisl, Wendell Phillips, entertaining tbo
me views but not quite so frank and lion-
t as Mr. Stanton.

While onnouDoiog lo hia auditory such a
radical revolution in progress, Mr. Stanton
justly supposes its promulgation may bo

to be Blarlled — not lo deny it." ""

You will probably, ere Ibis reaches you,

have received the Erst Number of the ICai-

Ttn Contlilulion. our now Democratic paper.

Last year the 7'ru'abutt Utmocrnt deserted
tho standard of Democracy, and united
with the CTironicff (the Republican paper,)
iu its crusade agunst Democracy, uuder
the plea that there was no necesjily for
two parties -. (I presume because the editor
thought one could rob the Government ot
mora than it could stand, in conneotion
vilhthe enormous expenses attendant upon
tho war,) shortly oTterwaids the editor of
the Dtmccrat was elected Treasurer of the
inty This is a poor looati

kneed Democrats, who love the emoluments
of office mere than principle, and last fall
was a trying time for that kind of timber,
and tbo scraggy and rotten- hearted fell,
but the sound, strong and deep-rooted still
stand defyiag the gale of fanaticism.

The ^lahaning^tT\linel, wtiich suspended
publication after the fall eloolions of last
ycu- has also resumed publication, and I

right, in so far as the views
and designs of his parly are concerned, —
We are in tbe midst of a revolution "des-
tined," as he thinks, " lo be one of tbo moat
idical of modern times," and more honest
lan Iho bulk of his party, he counoila n
frank admission of tbe fact." I repeat,
[r. Stanton is right, in so fat as the designs
of his party ace concerned ; hut whether it
be " the most radical of modem times."
e radical eveu than the French Revolu-
, as is clearly insinuated, depends upon
Demooratic party. If that party can
not wrest power from tbe hands of bloody
and ruthless Abolition, frenzied by Ihe sight
of blood and human butcheries— aii is Tost
— our country ruined — and our liberties de-
stroyed. Monarchy is more than biutcd at.
Our revolution, says Mr. Stanton, is not to
bo mtrdy " RADICAL," which rocans n total
overthrow of the present form of Govern-
ment, but ■■the moif radical of modem
limes." The French is one of the most
modem revolutions — radical beyond all
former precedent — but ours is to bo still
worse, if worse be possible.

Though it is difficult to see bow a revolu-
..Dn can be more "radical" than tbo
French, which passed through every form of
rchy. terror nnd bloodshed — " the blood-
picture in tbe book of time," yet it Is
_._ difficult to see thataboUtion is aiming nt
a total overthrow and subversion of this
■tnment — that it desigoaareign of terror
._ ,9 inaugurated iu the North — so deep
ond strong, so dark and gloomy, that every
man shall heoomo a secret informer against
bis neighbor and tho most aavace butcher-
ies perpetrated; the South tuoo crushed
into conquered provinces — negroes turned
loose to massacre the families of the whites
—State lines lo bo obliterated — a great
central power established — and finally mon-
archy— ^ead, heavy, cambrous mouarchy,
brood like o nightmare on our once happy
country in gloomy austerity — driving tho
last ray of liberty from the confines of the
world. This, I have long believed, was tho
design of the abolition leaders ; and I thank
Mr. Stanton for bis frank and candid

K a Democrat had made such a speech
on tho 4tb of Jnly, or any other time, hi
would have found himself in Forts Warrei

The recent avowals of hostilily to the
Union as it u'lii and Conslitutiou as it is,
aro not without some benefit. Shakspeare
aaya "our bad neighbors make us early
atirers, which is both benllhful und good
husbandry." Wo now know where to find
tbom. Forewarned, forearmed. T
henceforth be hut twi, political parties.
Those who are not Democrats will bo Abo-
litionists-supporters of law and order, or
sustainera of revolution and anarchy.

Difguiso it as ibey may, under the pro-
tegee of "Union" — "support of tbo Ad-
ministration" or whalever other name chance
may bring forth, tbe obJBot — tho groat lead-
ing object and design, as openly avowed by
Mr. Stnnton and privately ombraoed by
very Abolilionisl. is tho destruction — Iho
total, unconditional destruction of both

place with u great central despotism.
While the Democracy, now as ever, willing
to Bucrifico themselves for their country—
the only true Union men — iilwoys pledged
to the Bupporl of truth and justice- under
■hose swiiy alone has our country over
prospered — is firmly, decidedly and detor-
ainedly iu favor of '■ ihe Union as it teas
ud the Constitution as it is," and from this
position, nothing can swerve them — while
abolition, maddened by this first accession
to power, seems determined to use it for the
worst possible purpose, and, hounded on by
acorrupt political [frieathood. to overturn
and revolutiouiise our Government. Wilh

Wo give in another part of to-day's In-
lii^cnc^r the letter addressed by General
Hunlcr, of the Military Department of the
South, to tho Secretary of War. in reply to
a resolution introduced into tho House of
nepreaontativeB by Mr. WJckliffe, of Ken-
tucliy, and adopted on the !lth uU., calling
for "information respecting tho oiganixi
tion by Gen. Hunter, of tho Department c
South Carolina, of a regiment of volunteers
for tho defeoBO of tho Union, composed of
black men, (fugitive elavea.'} It was trans-
mitted to the House of Representatives on
Wednesday last by tho Secretary of Wnr,
who. it will bo remembered, atoted to the
House in a previous communication under
date of the 14th ull. that " General Hunter
was not authorizod by tbe Department t<
organize and mustor into the army of thi
Uuited States fugitives or captive alaves,'
and that whilst " upon bis requisition as
Commander of the Department of the South,
he had been furnished with clothing and
for the force under his command, with-
inslruotiuus as to how they should be
used," he had " not been furnished by order
of tho Department of War with arms to bo
placed within tho hands of 'those alovea.'"
At the same time Mr. Stanton added that
tbo War Department " had no oBioial lu-
lormalion whether Gen. Hunter has or has
organized a regiment of South Carolina
volunteers for the defense of tbo Union,
composed of black men, lugilive slavesj
but that in order to ascertain whether bo has
done so or not, a copy of tbo House rosolu-
tiou had been transmitted to Gen. Hunter,
with instructions lo make immediate re-
port thereon." It is in response to this ap-
plication that General Hunter has written
the note no publish to-day.

On Wedni'sJiiy mornlnp two neproe.i,
Jacob and K':-uben Ijong, from Allegheny
county, wero committed to jail cbatRed be-
fore Justi<:e Hunter ol West Nowlon, with
having forcibly outraged the person of Mrs.
Mnry Ann Faulkner, a very respectable
lady, residing in Roatravor Tp., this county.

Tbo facts of Ibis ease as related to ua ore
'of D most revolting nature. Sir. Faulkner
ia a morkot pedlar, and loft bome witb his
boFBU nnd wogoD, oa tbe morning of ihi
day on whioh the outrage nns oorr.miltcd
lie resided on tbe Inrupike, near tbo Alle
gbeuy Hue. Mrs. P. had retired to bf d n-il)
ber infant, no other person being nbout thi
house. About II o'clock, sbo was nroosed
by ft knocking nl tbo door. She enquired
who was there. She wns answered that her
huabnud bad met witb a " disoslor " — upset
and broke hia wngon — was badly hurt, ond
had son t his borao homo by " us " nod to
tell her to put it in tho pojituro. Sho got
up — put on D skirt, and placing ber frock
over her Bbooldore, upened tho door; dis-
covered a horse bitched Dear, but could sco
nothing of Ibo man. Sunpecling nothing,
■ho took the borso ruid led liim towards tho
pasture, when looking around she discovered
that tbo horso hnd a irhite spot iu bia face,
which her husband's hud not, and ibo bridle-
also, was not his. She immodiately became
onaro of danger, and dropping tbo reins,
run for the house, when two inun sprang
from their conceaJinonl, seised her arms
threw her violontly on her back, with her
skirt pulled over her fooo, conHuing hc-r
arms ns in a vice, and partially smothering
bcr, and while in thin situation, ono of the
fiends violated bcr person, then hold ber
until the other perpotrntod tbo satnooutrage,
when tbcy ran off ond left her. As aoon ae
sho wns able, sbo went into the house, took
her child, and nado her wny to n ueigbbor'a
house, where she told the story of her wrong.

The night wna dark, nod sbe could only
toll that they wero negroes from their well
knoreu voices, and by the horse, which sho
know beloDgcd to tba father of tbe accused,
who lives farther along tho road. It wat
several days boforo sho had them arrested.
Her convictions of their idenlity is strength'
oncd by tho fact that tbe neoused left West
Nowlon at a late hour that night with thi
borso Elbe identiSes, und had about time U
roaob her bouse at thu hour sho churgea tho

Clicer for ilic Dislicancned

It is n sad thing when n pnr.ton, old
yonng, toes through bis work in n, cowed
spirit. I do not mean goes through
jaded, heartless woy merely, but goes
through it iu the bare hopo of escaping
blame. A great part of all thot is do"" '"
this world is done in this way. Many
dren, many servants, many clerks, and
several parson?, go through their daily
round thus. I need not say hoiv poorly
that work will usually be done which the
man wishes just to got through without onj
great reprobation ; but think how unhappi-
ly it will bo done, and what a mlserabU
training of heart and mind it is. It seomt
to me that few people do their work hearti-
ly, ond really as well as they can. And
people whoso deeireis morelyto getlhrough
somehow, Eoem to aland to their wurk as nt
a level below it. Thu roan who hooestly
does bis best, works from above ; bis tusk
ia below bim ; be is master of it, howovei
hard it may be- Tbe man who hopes oc
more than to escape censure, and who ac-
cordingly aims at nothing more, seems t«
work from below ; his task is above him ;
bo is cowed by it. Lot us resolve that w(
shall always give praise when ivo can. Vol
will find many peopio who aro always will-
ing to find fault with their servants, if tbey
do anything wrong, but who nover i
opproving word when tbey do right,
will find many who do tbe like ns t
children. And only too ofien Ibat wretched
managemeat breaks the spring of ibo youth-
ful spirit Yes, many liltlu children arc
cowed, and :he result ia either a permanent,
dull quieBOonoe, never to be got over, or t
fierce reaction against the tyranny that
embittered oorly years — a reaction which
may sometimes cast ofi' tbo bonds of nat-
ural affection, and even of moral restraint.
How it encourages and cheers the cowed
little fellow, growing up io lbs firm belief
that hois hopelessly wicked,
do anything to pieaso any
ward as a change from constant punishment
and bullying. I have seen Ibo good effect
upon such an ono of a kind, approving
word. Uotv much more cheerful tbe work
will be done, how much better
done, and how much happier m

^ that does it ! A poor follow

:pects tb'it he can please, and who barely
hopes that he may pass without censure and
abuse, will do bis task very heartlessly,
praise warmly and heartily wberevei
is deserved. And if wo weigh the
matter, wo shall find that a great deal of
hearty praise is deserved " -' " - "

been found in any secondary formation- It
ia, however, much moro common in alluvial
grounds than among primitive and pyrogo-

laceoue, and furruginons sands of certain
plains and rivers, especially in their junc-
tion, at the season of low woter, and after
storms nnd temporary floods. It is tho on-

iw .Method of Givin-q CiiLonOFonii.

; a recent meeting of tbe Obstetrical
Society, Dr. Simpson described a plan i '
dmiuistering chloroform which ho has no
idopted in preferenoe to that at present i
ise here. The present made is lo fold up
handkerchief and pour into the hollow
itity of chloroform, nnd then hold it (
) distance from the face, so as to admit
of atmospheric air being inhaled along wit!
Iho vapour. Tbo new plan is to lay a slngh
lajer of handkerchief over the face, and let
chloroform fall on it drop by drop. The
advanlogt-s are these: 1. That there '
less danger to the patient from tho am
quantity applied at a. time. 2. That an
'/hesia is more speedily produced. 3. That
:be quantity at chloroform required is less.
Various gentlemen who had made trial ot
plan confirmed the value of this pro-
: and Dr. Young, in particular, staled
that he kept a patient narcotized for ten
hours with two ounces and a half of chloro-
form.— Briliih Mtdical Journal.

Thoro was no hope of success in such an
unequal struggle, ond Captain Gwiu, a moat
gallant officer, whose valor nnd patriotism
have been proven by the sevoreat tests,
Gonoludod to save his men, if possible, by
outranolog the Arkansas.

The TyUr'ihuv wos soon down stream,
and the Arkansas very litlle behind her,
firing rapidly, nud the pursued replying with
her stern guns coolly nnd regularly. The
Tyler's shot seemed lo have little, if any,
eUect upon the rebel, while tho latlcr'd fire

BUUORS ABOUT THE ARKAX3AS.
Itumor has been life with the name of the
.Arkansas for mouths. Every diiy
some now story has been told. SLo has
been ttuished and destroycJ at least Gfty
times during the present reason. She has
been aground, uud uiloat, and aground
again. Her machinery has been broken,
and hor completion impossible. She has
bflctt iu r*«dinesa for weeks in the Yazoo,
and only waiting the appearance of the
Yankee vessels up there to destroy them
utterly. Such the varying, such tho con-
flicting statomenlH.

From tho best information we have been
able lo gather on the fleet, it was
tho rebel gunboat was still unfiui
lying iiground in iho Ya^iiio. above the
blookude, with no probability of making her
oppearanco daring the war. but with the
doom of tho iucanuiary's torch above her de-
voted head.

Many persons would as soon have ei-
peoted to have seen the ghost of their
gionduiolher aa iliu Arkansas steaming in
broad daylight down the Misiiissippi, in tho

. peot it, I am very soro ; I had no idea of it.
and DO one could hare made me believe
Euohui aot probable.

Wo coald easily bavu known, and we
dbould have known, by all means, bow much
fact and how much fiction wus commingled
in the ramors about the Arkansas. We
ihad merely to go up tho Yazoo and look foi

THE AltEAKHAS STIEl, ADVASCING.
Tho Arkansas continued her course by
le Ilartfnrd und Richmond, neither of
hich cave her a broadside, though tboy
fired at her repeatedly i passed the Oneida,
Ireqaoii, IVUsaJiicken, Cincinnati, Sumler,
Bra/rg, Etiez, Denton and all tho real.
They all fired at her when sho was above,
0.1 aho wont down, and when she was below;
but, though heavy shot often struck her,
they did not seem to injure her. but all
glanced olT. as a rifle bullet from a hard
rock. Now she had run the gauntlet, and

L Moadoy night, an atrocious murder
^ommitled in New Albany, tlio pnrticu-
jf which, as WB gather them from the
Nfw Albany Ledger, uro ns follows : Abont
half-past nine o'clock Alonday night, a party
of young men from tho age* of eightoon Iu
twenty, were standing cu tho corner of oa«
of tho public streets talking, when a party
of negroes passed smoking cigars. Ono of
tho boys remarked, as they passed, "that
thorn negroes are putting on a good deal o[
atyle." After tho remark was niudo tlio nii-
groes started down Iho street, and whoa
tboy had proceeded about twenty yarda,
thoy turned and oonimenoed filing on tbo
-larty. Tho firat shot nruok Charles Laua-
ord, one of the orond, in tbn thigh, nud tho
second etruck John Locko in thu hearl, kill-
ing him instantly. Thu negroes Iben ran
off and made their escape.

Yesterday morning the oQiODrit of New
Albany arrested Ab. Johnson, John Simms,
Alex, Pell, and Uill Price, four rolbor uolu-
rious negroes, as being cither ouncerueil in,
or having a knowledge of, the murder.

There was cuoaiderablo eiaitomcut in
New Albany all day yesterday about Ihu
affair. Tbo Now Albany Ledger saya;—
Three negroes were overhauled by a crowd
of wbitomon, none of wbcaenames wo bavo
learned, in tho northern suburbs of the oil;
known as Day town, about 1 1 o'clock to-^ay,
and ono uf thorn shot in thu arm und aide,
uud it is thought fatally injured. Tho other
two were badly beaten, hut managed to
mako their csoapu from tho iufuriated crowd.
The negro was fired on, wo are informed,

THE HITUATION IN AND NEAR VIOKSBURO.
''iha Arkansas this morning is still lying
off Vickaburg, under the water- batteries of
the town. Sho seems crippled, and has sev-
eral large holes in her. She hns up no

or about her; bat still all her officers and
crew mny bo on board, for aho could bo em-
ployed as a floating or permanent battery
to nearly as much odvantage as a gunboat.
Farragut's vessels are now lying below

Mr. Sknkott is the lawyer who volon-

who BO nbly ocqaillBd himself on that oc-

England purilanic hypocrisy and deopit
very well; und moro bo hiB tho narvo to
heard Ibo haggard lion in bis deo, n Ihiug
gtCBtly Inokiug by many who know Qod

Yankee liocioly is worthy of a Hooartu,
ond should open Iho cyps of ihoao at henic

edacalion and ovil natures, without the or-
goniBed Booioly of oqaally goilty Deuooos

on themeelyes, oven iu tho remolo villages of
the frontier, they begin halohing their brood
of malignantfl. in churob nnd out of it— in
BObools ond aeminaries, in every place of
OonCding reeort, in families and neighbor-
hoods, oolil they distort virtue, bewilder
pioty, nnd turn thocouraoof events iutothe
channol that leads to their cesspool of dis-
order, violenoo, thefts, rohberlOH, divorces
oud chain gongs.

When all tho cases are ouUeoted togothor,
of the dolnga of these wild, hoir-braioed

extraordinary a book, and of much largi

penses — tbe best mode of raisi
iJic., r,Sio., but as to who shall
I not roll up his sleeves and rush
!ouo at the cannon's mouth, should
be left to Ihe fighting men to tell all about.
Wn hove too many orators and too
fow soldiers — too many giving money to

ranks to give blood to their country.

Had wo the power, wo would put o rifle
into every man's hand before bo made a
speech, and his name on tho roll, and it
lid not be long before our army would
be fuU 10 overflowing. These are our views
havo rppeuled them over and over
bis wnr began, and wo have more
reason to-doy to believe W6 or
at any former time,

Our views may not ho popular
but that may bo no reason they
reel; they are conscientiously given nt least.
We never could listen with any patience to
a man making a speech, for somebody else
to go lo fight, wbeu ho refuses to go him-

Confi'derale Constituton,
Congressional swiodling, and remarked Ibat
with such a provision in onr Constitution.
the great avenues of Congressional corrup-
tion wonld be cut off. and our Government
could be run with one.fa
peose. OoB paper says, we insinuated that
it was better than ours. We made
iinuation nbool it— we dont
stated the fact iit somsuy words— we slated
a fact, not a htlief. That fact sliU osisls as
strongly to. day as it did then. We have
no apology or eiplanation to make obout the
fact — it is the lying misrcpresenialiono of
tho Kepublican papers, and garbled state-
ments of what we did say. The errors and
crimes are tbeirs not ours. Wo staled a
simple truth which nobody controverts.

After the army of Siuuonseb who go to
Congress lo sell their irtjlutnct — Irade off
votes and make merchandize of public
oQiceB, to Iho utter disgrace of tho wholo
body of Senotors, wboao guilty parlicipotion
in similar tiansactiona, so chilled their pat-
rioliam that they dared not oven rebuke
him, we might, with great propriety, ask
whether there might not bo a law possed lo
supply tbe lack of Constitutional provia-
lo expel and penitentiary all guilty of
Buch abominations.

We Ihonk our friends ol the Portsmouth
'tnifv for their kindness in making a de-
uce for "ur publishing In March. 1901. the
Coosliloiion <.f Ihe Coufederale States. As
published in the colamns of tbe Cin-
einnali Commercial. New York Herald, and
3 other Republican papers at the some
, we did not think It necessary to apoio-
for publishing it in The Clusis. We
claim the same privileges in snch cases, as
Kepublican papers claim, and none hot
smallest picayune sneaks, who pass for
Aholilion politicians would refer to such a
thing. But they charge us with speaking
approvingly of it, at tbe time. Approving-
ly of trhal ? There might be a good chap-
in the Koran or Mormon Bible.

We spoke approvingly of a section in the

Canndn.

The British slalesmen, and that is pretty

near the Govornmenl, hove notified tbo
Canodas that they must look out for Ihiim-
selves — organize their own defences, and, if
.n tho order of ovonte, prepare for their own
feparaleosisleBCe. This the Canadian pa-
pers havo taken up and iit once the question
amongst them, " Will such a move-
ment not lead lo our absorption by iha
States?" Wo agree with tbo Naw York
Albien (British paper) that one doos not
necefsorily follow tbe other, but as this
brings up the old affair abandoned by Mr.
Seivauli, we cannot but revive that mallor,
for it is clearly evident that there is lo be
greater American results to grow out of our
civil commotions than mauy pcoplo beliove.
Wo are all aware that thero has been
aomelbing under cover, not made public
from tho beginning. The old charge, and
' have often referred lo it is, tbol there
.3 au arrangement, or conversation, of two
three years standing, between Mr. Sew
.p and certain British statesmen, that in
the event of tbe success of Iho Repoblicaa
organiintion, and a vi-ithdrawal of tho Sooth,
■bich was then predicted, tho Northern
States and Canada were to form a Union,
.t tbo South go. It is wollknown that
tho Rcpiiblienns, previous to coming into
power, nil took tho position that Iho South
not lo be coerced book into Ihe Union.
Llscols said that South Carolina would
to oome back, before be would ask her
lo do so, and lor more than a, month afler
the Ll^coLM odminisCraliun was in power,
were told daily thut Col. ANDuneos
.Id be withdrawn from Fort Sumter, nnd
; wo should have no wnr.
bus wo started off during March, ISlil
In nil this we had no faith, and kept pr*
ling trouble iinless a basis of compromis
s Gicd upon, by which tbo North and
South could settle their own affairs on somt
amicable terms. Wnr we looked upon as
inavilablo ruin lo bolb HHOtiona, for if wt
bad not statesmen enough to come lo term)
of some sort, we of courso had aoldiert
enough to carry on a twenty years war, it
fighting was the delcrminalion of tbe parties.
An amicable odjustment would defeat tbo
purposes of Europe, and wo felt more inter-
in that, than in seeing oar brave men
ided into sections and led on to the des-
Iroction of each other.

We have now had over one year of war,
id the people, Lhoso who have done the
fighting and those who remained al homo
;o pay the tasea, are in just aa much ignor-
ince as when the war commenced. Wo
have spent over oue thousand milliooBcfdol-
)st by death, sieknesa and wounds
ee hundred thousand men, the
youth and early manhood of tho North, to
Bay nothing of Ihe South.

During Ibis whole year of terrible war
the powers of Europe hate held their mys-
terious orgies over our destiny.

France pushed her armies into Mexico

the soulh, after the withdrawal of Spain

and England, with about the same mystery

of purpose us England has acted in Canada.

At last England notifies Canada that

lust take euro of herself— and inti-

very strongly that a separation from

lOtber coonlry will nut be resisted,'

aises the discussion m Canada, "what

shall we do with ourselves ?"

Tbe Canadian people are citremely hos-
e to us of the North, and following the
ample of our Republicans, ihey c-ilermi-
noted, at Bronswiok, the only press in tho
tish possessions, north of us, which ad-
vocated the Union, cause, scattering tbo
type in the streets and breaking tbe presses
pieces. This does not look like a very
il union with ibe North, but much more
like aa alliance with the Sooth.

We present these facts for the considera-

)n of those who lltink — and those who for

0 time being do the s^Jiratii^, if not the

thinking. Our affairs are critical at every

point, and the mysterious conduct of the

Governments, not eicluding ,

The inasB mectiog of the Democrncy,of

Thomas A. Hendricks President, who, upon
taking the Chair, said:

Gestlciie^' — I thnnt you fot tjie houoi
of calling on mo to preside over your delib-
erations uu this ocouiion — tbo Convention
uf tho people of the Stale of Indiana. You
do not eipeol of ino to make you a Bpcceh.
Wo have distinguished cenllelnrn from oth-
er Stales, who will occupy jour attention.
Wo are Indianians. and are surrounded by
troubles, with ou excited condition in socio-
ly. It is the duly of every man. and good
oiiizeu, and every good patriot to uiaiutnin
tho publio peace, sud n^ the presiding offi-
cer I nppeal to every man that he consider
himself n committee to mnintaiu goodordor.
He regarded no man as d good Democrat
unless he is q good citizen and u patriot.
If thut be true, every Democrat from his
heart will endeavor to preserve tho publio
peace, and secure the obsetvanoe of the
laws. You will, therefore, oil unite with us
in preserving the utmest ,jood otdet. No
good DeuiuoraC will attempt so disturb the
itder ijf this great meeting. But. perhaps.
omL. persons outside may be so indiscreet
IB to say some offenaive things. Allow me,
therefore, to suggest to jou, that wo are a
great frro people, met f(« a great patriotic
purpose, and that wo can afford to turn uur
books upon small mou in smalt matters.
ThereforCi Mr. Hendricks suggested, that
representatives of a great people,
meoliog en a great occasion for the good of
■ — -■e ought to pay no sort of et.
mnn that may try to insoll
yon here ; simply pass him by as nnw.itthy
of your attention, for good, patriotio men,
and worthy citizens of tho opposite party,
will not try to hurt the feelings of any oiti-
sens assembled on this occslsIod, and it cm;
not be necessary fur you to notice the con-
duat of a blaokcaard. [Applause.]

were then made by the pouulacof'TSpccoh-

This p.'nlk'man staled that other diatiu-
gai»bed speakers wcro present, nnd ho
would not tuko up tho timo of the nuoling
ilthi,ilimc with any temorka. President
Lincoln always illustrated hia ideas by fa-
miliar nuecdutea. and had eaid that the
slavery qaeslioQ was a technical one, and
he did not like to moddio with it, for it was
dangerous to touoli it. It was like a lan-
tern-jawed man who went to a. bather in II-
liqois. whioli slory bos already been pub-
lished.

Mr. Wiokliffe. being introducea by Mr.
Hendticke, alluded briefly to tho former te-
as between Indiana and Kentucky.
words of the gentleman who had pre-
sented bioi brought to his memory the
■nta of fifty years ago. It was then a
oof war; of a war waged by tho peo-
,.._ — by the Democracy, ho might say — of
tho United States ngainstGreat Britain, for
free trade and sailors' rights. Indiana and
Kentucky had no sailors impressed, ond
then, as now, thoso who mado our troubles
themselves up like a terrapin in its
shell in tbeir New Euglaud Slatoa. and le(t
to fight their battles. God bloasod us
then. May God bless us now. May Ho
bless our effort!! in maintuiaiog Ihe Consti-
tution as it is and restoring the Union as it
was, against the wicked Secessioaists of
the South and tbo still more wicked Aboli-
tionists of the North. Kentucky had au

to gay that for tbo cause of

the Constitution and thu Union she would
dovote her all. Would ever ludiauu nnd
Kentucky consent that the Union should ho
'■ Ided by tho Ohio River. [■' No, no,"]

udiaua will do as aba ha^ done before,
pour out her precious blood defending our
tree institutions against all those who urn
combined against them. Upon correct prin-
:p!es Indiana would do this. For the
ulon aud the Constitution she would do it.

It had been asserted that slavery mu«t bo

Kirty had swallowed neck and heels ihe
epoblioan party, Liko sheap, these Ite-
puolioans in Congress followed their leader.
When wo Whigs of tho oldachool, DougUs
men and Itreckiuridge men, mho had aeeu
the error of their ways, called upon thorn
to declare that they would wage thd war on
tbu prineiple indicated, as thoy had iu IdGl,
like Billy Bo-peep'a sbopp. they didn't oome
up- When Judge Holman, of Indiana, a
good and true man, God bless him, renewed
ttati Crittenden resolutions as an aasurance
to tbu aimy, and invited them to vote upon
it, they refused. Yet they said they woro
for the CooBlitutiun and for a realurution
of the Union. They say they are fur it
now, and they will say they are for it ui
after yuur October olcotion. Mark that

What was tbo cause of the war? [A
voice: "Abolitionism."] Well, youguesBed
il pretty near, my friend. Somebody must
iBve ttiii you. Thut I knon ; fot, so help
no God. it's true ! Dat thoy say slavery is
he Cause of tbu war. If ho bad the poivet
le would visit upon the heads of the leaders
if tho rebellion tho punishment their wick-
edueas merited. But when it came to the
test vory likely he would, like the tory
Scotchman, who tolil the Revolutionary
ebel that he would bt) couijuered, but that
Uia Majesty was amerciful man and would
not descend in hanging below a fow atrocious
characters — ha would not, wilh regard to
rebels now-a-days, descend below a few
atrocious charaoters. hut ho would hang an
Abolitionist on tho other end of every rope.
Slavery was oamuob the cause of the warns
the tea thrown into Boston Harbor waj the
e of tho Bevolution. This was con-
'd by designing and ambilioas men. In
proof of it, Mr. Wiokliffe produced tho re-

Dnacla* uiid VnllniidlfiDam — A
Spritiklinc of Fuel nnd History.

It is an old ada^e that with some people,
a ItL- well stuck tu is belter than Iho truth.
This feems to be tbo priuoipio upon which
the (Triler« and conduetors of the Republi-
can press of Iho Stale pronoso carrying on
the present campaign. Notwithslunding
that it has been denied and proved false ru-
punledly — denied and refuted hy Mr. Vul-
landigbam, both iu Congress end oot of it
— the Marion UninnUl, following in tho
wako of the Cinoinnall Commercial and Oa-
:ttle. Stalt Journal, and other Abolition
prints, continues to repeat tho stale aud
thread-baro charge that Mr. Vallondigham,
when Iho rebellion first broke out, declared
that no Iroops going to fight tbo South
should pass Ihtougb bis Dislriot cicept
over his dead body. A chorgo no silly, it
would seem needs scarcely a passing notice,
much kas a formal refulalion; hut the Ah-
olilioa press stiok to it wllb such perllnnoi
ly that unless reminded oocasiunally of its
uilor falsity and superlative Billlnes.s tbey
would nut only learn Ihomielveu to believo
il, hut might blind others with tbo samo do-
iusion. It will be Tememhercd with irhat
portinacity these aamo men continued to
miHrepresent tho lamented DouglaJS, fur
years afler lis falsity was proved lo tho
world, in representing hirn as saying,
speaking lor tbo South, and menacing the
Norlh— or, aa Iho Abolition press had it.
" BBsumiog to bo the champion of the slave
Oligarchy," " wo will snbduo you." False-
hood, detraction and misrepreaoutation now
as then seem to bo the only stock in Iradu
of Ibesn mcndooious scribblers of a men-
dacious and corrupt preaa.

The inordinate obuEO and shameless per
seoution now so lavishly heaped upon thf
head of Mr. Vallandigham will uot burt bin
in tho least. It ia tho same kind of war
furo Iho AbolitioQslB made upon tho gifted
Douglas. No sooner did Douglas gaii
proaiinence, and tbo people begun to recog'
nize bis genius and power and growing
greatness, tbau instantly went up, from
vulloy and hill-lop, tho cry of "Douglas
ibe traitor," und every Aholition press and
ip orator, bolb great and small, echoed
ro-acboed it throughout tbo laud. And
it will be remomhered with what grJJ
faoliou they were wont lo place bii
"lus: "Slophen AKNOLD Douglas." hy
'hicb to associate him in Iho mind of the
puhlio with the traitor Arnold. Nor will it
be forgotten that for tho eieroiso of bis
right and duty as d Senator, he was pro-
tonted with thirty three oent pieces, design-
' 'a cast reproach upon him hy cum-
ig him with Judas Isoariot wbo, for
thirty pieces of silver, betrayed his maiiter.
Aud it will be remembered, too, with deep
mortifioatjon, that suob was the bitter, te-
veugcful, implaoahle feeling against this
great and good man, at ono period of bis
history and that of a party which then
claimed to he tho advocates nnd specially
.ppointed defenders of free speech and a
reo proas, and which now attempts to
throttle the one nnd destroy the other, that
bo was enabled to travel from Wnshingli
to ChioBgo hy tho light of his own bgrulng
ciDgies.

This is tbo same cbarnoter of ubui
being heaped upon Mr. Vallundigba:
by tho same Abolition disuniuniatswl:. __
buen laboring for uiuoteen yoars to take
nineteen Stales out of tbo Union; wbo,
when Douglas and VBllandighum Hud nil
true patriots wero rnllyiug under Ibo old
flag of the Union, were carrying flags with
only siitoon stats and ■■Mo Union with
Sluvohulders," as Its device, nnd wbo to-
day, if thoy dared, would carry the same
flag. It was the Abolitiouisie then who
abused, villified and persecuted Douglas^
it is tbo same eloss who are now using the
same species of abuse to break down Val-
landigham. Douglas lived to see bis naiiic
honorod and revered by ull as u patriot ,
Valhiudigham, if be lives much leai time
than Ibat usunlly alloUed to man will live to
see bis nomo ocoupy a similar nicbo in tho
pinnacle of fame, and tbo friends of each will
Uvo to seo the names of both honored with
n bappy and appropriato aBseclalion in his-
tory nith Jefforion and Jaokton and oibei
patriots iTho lived down tho per^eculious ol
the I''odernliiits and Toriea ut ibelr day, d<
Douglas did in hi;;, uud us Vuilaniilgham

All of these nieu have met with the saoie
vile vituperation and malicioua detraaliuu.
Tbo leading articles of tbo Abolition prem
abusive of v all and Ig bom are but a repro-
duolion of their aiticU-a of 1854, 155G ai '
ISGO, on Douglas wilb his numu atrlcki

Id oonaequuuoo of tho settled policy of
the British GovcrnmeDt in respect to tho
Afrioan alavo trade and Slavery in her
American CoIouifb — a policy whioh they
ttoutly and pcrsoveringly resisted, but with-
)ut succoBs — tho system of domcstio aervi-
:uda was rcoognized and proleoled by the
laws of all tho Colonies, and tho slavo trade
by many of thorn, nt the timn of the llevolu-
. In some States tbo number of slaroa
large — in others it was small i in some
tho system was doolining— in others it was
full vigor, and tbe parlies interoaled wero
dependent for their prosperity upon its maia-
tonauce,

thoBoStute», therefore, buvtug t'reod
thetoaolves from tho Briliab yoke, oamo in
due timo to form a Couslilution for tho pur-
pose of securing u more porfoot union in
fraternal boads, II bcoauie necessary that
it should be recognized, and thai
tbe permanent attitude of tbo federal au-
thority towards it should be defined. As
tho Union was empowered to regulate oom-
ith foreign nations and nnioug Iho
aeveral Stales, ita power ovor tbo slave
trade, aud tbo oitout of it^ obligation to per-
uiust be defined. Aa slaves would bo
likely lo escape from their maslers and
take rofugo in Slates that wero proparing
aboliab slavery, it waa iieoesaury to do-
rmiue isbat right aod wbataid thu owners
should have in rvoluiiniog suoh lost property.
As the Slates whore tho proportion of sluvea
vaa largo might bo disturbed and endanger-
d by slave conspiraoics nnd inaurrcotiouf,
othodctrimontof nil Ibe States that bad
ntercDurfo with tbe endangered States, it
103 necfsaary lo detctmiDO hoiv fur aid
ihould bn extended by the Union in such
:aso3. It was natural to i-xpcct that pro
'iaion furulavery iu uN Ihosb ospeots would
have to bo mndu -, uud Ibo evaotproved that
unless this wuj douo, uu Cun.stitutiaii could
be pinned.

I'resaed by tbean noccs^ilica of the case,
thuso whoao inU'reslH undprejudicoa did not
Jruw them towords slavery, but rulbcr the
ilher wny, determtuedi for tho sake of a
summon Uuion and government, to forego
ihoir pergonal fuclings and views, and lo
frame and adopt a Conaiitution making
lawful tliu temporary cuntinuauDo of tho
slave trade, guaranteeing Ibu return of fu-
gitive slaves Iu their raaslera, and iu effect
pledging the aid of tbe power of tbo Union
in repressing alavo inaurrcotions. In other
words, lliey delormined lo nnlionalixo sla-
rtry to a limited extont. This thoyncoord-
ingly did by tbo provisions in the Coustltu-
lion rospeoting tliesu thrue topics, and thud
slavery ivaei to a limited extent, nationalised.
#.lso, in the provisions of that instrument
oonoerniixg thu ratio of ropreEentation, aod
poncerning tbe apportionment of direol

In all this thero was nothing wrong; but

of that day one of the negroes employed iu
Lorillard'a tobacco factory was alanding
in Iho doorway of Grady's liquor store, on
tho opposite corner of the street, whan n

him quietly lo get out of iho way. Tho

prevented from doing any injury by a
policeman who came up. This ended the
dilhculty 00 Saturday,

)Q wont into Mr. Lorillard'a faolory and
insiflted that nogroea ahould not bo allowed

iply with the request, and stopped his
colored laborcia from working. About ono
o'clock in tho afiernoon over a thouaaod

Ue called Tom rind 'Dick to him and
told them that Harry must bo tlof^ged into
obedience; but while that was being done,
Diok must dry up tbo peculiar noliona wliiolt
' ' oiciled Harry 's pas ion; and that
list drop allaeltisb aas'stanoo to Diok
and help him (the old man) to iaflict tbu
punisbmenl. But Diok waa ,>n a. bigb borae.
He had seen, he thought, a uhancn to bavo
ay once, ami ho wouid'ut give it
thi.refuro wont among his and
Tom'a farm handi-, and, while tho old gen-
tleman was making his preparationa and
fi;ttil>s fitirly in pureuit of the renegade
arry, he induced thorn In prumiso a aup-
jiort to his schemes, nnd idao not to bolp
itebcdee in tho nfTuir until he too bad uo-
quiesced.

Chief among these scheoiea was -Jiio grow-
ing out of an afiHir which bud given rise to
a triangular quarrel in the lamily meetings.
Harry and Diok on one coruer, and Zebodee
and Tom at tho other two. There was a
large tract of land lying along the whole of
one aide of Fasoea' land. This bad been
jointly reotnlmed by tbu family; when a
partition of it was proposed, the question
arose whether Uorry ahould bo allowed to
lake bia servants upon it, whether
divided or not. The queslinu oocaaioned
much feeling, but it was finally dotei
that Hurry might Bend bia lenautry upon
it, to decide for themselves nbetber Ihey
lid bo followed by Ibeir servants. Dick
laily aupoorled Iho rule. —
t much di'pendenoe lo be
placed upon bim. He uac-d to say that ex-
pediency was law, and he woaso vialounry,
philunlhropio. and believed so in every
ion that struck hia fancy, that ho used
Ibink anything was expedient and "
course right. Tbia was what urnuaed Hi
ry'a dudgeon. Lnzy na bo was, be aaiv that
Dick meiiut to give him trouble about bia
iltbough tho matter bad been ap-
parently brought I« a aatlsfnolory euttlu-

Borry n.-ver would be whipped, if Tom
d Dick were allowed to go on. So he
id Dick one« for all lo »but bia mnuih, to
irb bis unruly longuo and unholy paKslous;
id if he e.'uld not hidp to oaloh and pun-
ijb Harry iu a proper way. to olenr out en
tirely. Tom began to feel nahamed of the
part h« had lakoQ, ood would nl ouee hav<>
given in to iiehedee. II be had not remem-
bered Diok'a tbreot about the walnuU, and
the cbaoge in bia private stroug bei. He
didn't want Zebedeo to inquire iulo the mat-
of Ibal strong boi loo closely — ii.t be cer-
tainly would if ho again came to wield tbo
family riceplre. Zybedee hud, hi.nevcr, al-
■ey of getting hia chiiJrou to obey
hu will yet bo aoooeasful.
I left, they bad finally agreed that
Zebedee ahould mauage the pursuit of Har-
"y, aud Ihit tuo question whether Dick
ihould abondon hia preposteroua ideas of
philanthropy and progreaa which wer<
log tbem all lo ruin, or whether b'u
should prevail, aud the great farm bi
broken up forever and sold out to aliens not
itruiigers— should bo loft to tho tenantry of
ho lurma. Zobedeu' a tenants were actively
iDgagediiicreating a better feeling upon tho
ferm, and Dick's rotoinora wero laat loalog
their influence. Tom waa still -'balling bo-
twoopiniona." Tho froudulootiy ob-
tained money atill burned in bia puoketa;
but if ho can aeo any way to teop it and
take it with bim ho will join the Zobudeo

Zobedeohad boun badly treated through-
it the muss. Although doing everything
at an upright man could do to save Faa-
■y land from deatruotion, and bring Harry
' coudigu puniahment. Dick bad been
busily promulgating the falsehood Ibnt tbi
old mail was u uympathiser. aud soorntly
gove Harry aid and comfort. Uuthedidi ■
care inuoh for Ibal, for be was ooneoioufl
probity in his intentiona. Ue said to
when 1 left :

therefore, set up fjr himself. Aa be wus

that if be would remain quietly bis rights

Harry mnuabed in Zobedec'a mind

at iu u short time bo will again preside iit
tho altar uf a united family, and bring Tom.
and Diok, aud Harry, penitent aud obedi-
ent chitdrou, to bis knee.

■fEiiRASKA (JlTv, August, 18C2.

Dick p[opo!-cil a direct
impact about carrying
117 farm, un'l bull- ragged Toi
helping bim. By DDiting their n
theyouluumbered Zebedeo a foibiwcr* ; and
ry- while be sent iu pursuit of Harry, Ihey uu-
' derlool\ to muuege the douicstiu relations,
swearing Ihey would Ilnve ovorytbiug their
onn nay. Z<'bedoe prayed to them, uxhnr
led Ihcm, ivent to them with leara iu hia
oyea ; advised tbemi if tbuy bad Iho least of
Ihe old fauiily love left, aud disired at all to
ptcaerve Facea' land, lo pnuBo in their mad-
neaa. He hud eeen Harry; bo knew the
poor boy naa in u terrible til of passion, hut
that be nould eoen lire himself out, and bo
glad enough to come back uud sit iu tbo
ibade of the bomcaltud tree, ii they would
pramiae to lot thlugi^ alone as they tvero be-
fore the outbreak. Harry wa» nlreody bad-
ly punished — be badbeou deceived in look-
ing for outside aid; bad become scmible of
hia error, hut if they did not pause, he
would become entirely ulienalcd; ivhilc
they would apend ull tlioir aubalance iu o
pursuit, and tUToIve Ibeinaelvos in 3E
irretrievable ruin of debt.

The old gontlDniao's counael did not pre
lib Diok was bound lo let some blood.
utid Tom, blinded by Diok'd impetuosity
nnd a threat that be would opproptiatu all
tbu joint waluula iu tho homealcud cellar,
wont headlong against Zebcdec's advioe. —
Tom aud Dick, therefore, dissolved the
compaoi about the new farm, and
olured that nobody should take aervanti
on any pari of it, whether the soil coo
could not be worked without. Then they
left Zebedee End bis udbcrnutA to catch nnd
flog Harry, if they could,
his farm aud destroyed his fields nnd stole
bis applca. They spent alt Ihe money in
Ibo lamily purse, and gavo promlaaoty
notes for the debts they created, for far
larger uuiounts than their desccndauts can
pay in ten guneraliuns. Diok was bound
lu Uuvo blood letting, nnd ibey took all the
young men out of ihuir fields and sent them
over on Harry's farm to be killed or die- —
Tom'a homely knowledge of ciphering now
e in play. Ho got charge of the mat-
of buying ahoi-guiis anil powder and
food andolotbing for their followers, and, I
lave heard it aiid, managed to put from
L*ii t-> lifleen per c^nt. ot the coat into u
.irong box for his own use. Tbey also made
lea tif everylbiug on Hurry's faro 'hot
they could lay hands uu— whotbef it be-
longed 10 bis followers or not.

Then Dick nud Tom went farther. Somo
of Harry's tenantry living near the line be-
tween bis farm and th« others, bad not gone
oB with bim — in fact, did not approve of
hisho: headedness. They Iboogb: ba was
foobab. So they stayed at homo with their
servaDls, and helped Zebedee in a way, and
endeavored to calm down Tom'a and Dick's
inaanity. Bat the two boys, more foolijb
ihon Uarry, would not tialun. They did
worse ; tbuy attempted to dispcad cf the
g.>tvaaiB of these Boigbbora, and would fi-
nally bavo driven them off to Harry's ac-
tual bssistOQco if Zebedee hod not inter-

By this time the old gentleman had be-
coaxt fully aroosed to the dongora nhicb
threatened tbc family acres. I

'here aeruLH to bo, as yet, somu doubt

iug upon ill'! public mind as In whether

lot a regoi t lo draftiug will be necesaary

tbia Stale, in order lo complete New

York'a quoto of tho new levy of ,'100,000.

One report of the interview at Waahinglou

between President Lincoln aud the Now

York C-'itinilteo uQirmed that Mr. Liocoln

e;i|ire3ii ' •< -itroiig disinclination lo drafting

men for lu - '.viir, trhilc another atalemunt on

ihe same subject a,i positively afiirma that

thu Excoutive favored the adoption of that

plan aa the only ajiparent menus of apcedily

'■ " " ig tho ouiiibnr of .- . .

the call."

spcoified i

10 learn that Qovernui
Morgan now baa iiutbority from tbo Wai
Deparlmont to begin drafting, if requisite
on the IBth of tbo present month, and tu
Iho ptugrvss of voluntury enlialmouts dOHi
not seem to irarraut thu boUof that the
quota ot the Stale will havu ih
' ed. it is safe to aaauuie the pustuluto that
impotntivo TCgtine will then be innugura
led.

How is drafting uonduoled iu this ooun

try ? Es the eystein oquable f la oven

bunded justice muted out to all oitixeo:

aUke. who owe military duly to Ibo N'atloi

under the cicoptiunal circumBtnneea re

uiriug forced levies of troopti ? Is tberi

I favoritlam 1 Aco uot rocraiting oSicer

r their subordinates clothed with certaii

iscretionary pon-era. or do Ihey not occu

py a position enabling them tu except any

one, two or a dozen individuals — no mattei

ivbut number, eo that ita magoitudu sbal

not provoke invoatigntioo — from obligatory

military service ?

Wo ask theae queslioua in no carping
spirit, nor are ita by any meauM asautcd
that the ropliea 10 thom are not perfeolly
aalisfuolory in every teapeot. Our object
in raising tho [wint and culling to it that
publiu attention already eo keenly alive to
very topic diraclly or abstractly be
ipou the war. is. to state a fact that
le patent to every intelligent mind, lo wii :— i
that an important eystem whose ramifioa.
or less reach every uitizpo. put
into practic-j in tho country for the first
time in fifty years, aud likely to be oarried
to a far greater extent ibau ever before
dreamed of in tho history of iho United
Stulcj. will be Dtionded by tho difficulties,
iucunveniencea and abuses necessarily aris-
ing from inexperienoe. and that a profitable
loE-son may ba learned by oiaminiog the
mode uf prooodure followed by uations
which annually swell the ranks of their ar-
mies byreiourcu to coniciiplioa.

By wuy of iUuatration we may lake tbo
example oi France, whose magnificent army
(aud navy otso.) are almoat uxoluslvely
aiutatocd by IhuoompuUeryaysiem, nhiob
indera overy Frenchman, until exempted
by rpooial causes, liable to devote ■
'ears of his lilfi to lli- mililory a,
tel, lO aouiirably It the law B'lmlniati.-reil,
,0 perfeotly doc* the machinery
iven the most insignifioaot detail;
jclly does the burden fall on all classes of
society, every man being obligiid to bea
fair portion of it — that tho French pi
look upon the annual conacription as a
ter of ooarae. submit to it cheerfully, and
FroQOe is indebti^d lo it for tiiu reputation
ebe now tojaya, and justly, of posseaaiog
th>> Gncst armyin the wurld.

Under French law every birth
registered within furty-eighl hoars, under
pain uf severe penalties for any etlempted
vii'Iitioa of the code. France ij divid-.d in-
to 40,000 oommuaes. eacbuf which has a

I lives in tho Legislature are chosen

«aca townships compose one district

luther the Democratic voice in a mill
tarv prison and thus .-lueoeed in letting tho
" eloqaenc" " of one of their imn stripe
ind through tht> balU of a patriotic
Kansas L-gjalatare. But ia tbM they have
failed, signally failed, and thii Democracy
determined that thoy will speak at tho
polls, and this attempt at silencing them at
the ballot box has only atimulalcii them to
Toalor exertion. Of oourso I do not blame
lio military autbotitiea for arresting men of
diom proper complaint had bi'ea made, but
tbo entaka who furnished tbe " valuablo in'
formation" are tho wretches wbo should be
avoided by all honest men, I bavo been Li-
formed, how truly I cannot say, that the of-
ficer who was diitailed on Ibis duty, told tbo
.ilninnut. or complainants, that no more
arrests would be made unless upon written
obargi-B being preferred specifying tho no-
turn of tbe cn'nir. and he would arrest those
whocoinplaincd without complying with this
demand. This put a quietus upon tbo whole

purposd of raising an army. Ho made a
speech at Leavenworth on Monday night

When wo met one year ago in Congreaa,
both brancbea pledged tboinselvea that the
war should be prosecuted for the pteservn-
lion of tbo Union and the CoDStituliou, and
for Oiat alone. All of these abolitioniats
ithor voted for the resolution which waa
adopted embodying that aentimect, or ran
out of the Uouao to avoid voting hC all.—
Well, tho resolution was adopted. Tho
President issued bis call for voluntoerd, and
I hundred and ninety -three thousand
ished to arms upon the faith of tbo aolemn
pledgo which Congress bad given to the
people. Time rolled on. and auccuss soomed
nilo up»n our efferle. Our Western

Tho Southern people were still divided. Just

Dl parly goes immediately to work to un-
do all the wise legislotion of the called sea
aioD. Every propoailioti that is brought
forward ia for the negro. It soon became
ippareot that the majority in Congress was
ID longer bonod by the Constitution. In-
ilead of coming forward with measures of
peace and oonoiliation, they came with
oonfisoation, Gre, and sword, and by these
easurea they at once fired and united the
larta of tho Southern people.
Thus fur wo conservative men had gone
bond iu band with iheao bypoorilca. in good
laith ; but here w«i l»ft them. We parted
them with great Borrow and pain.—
Then it waa that 1 becumn ualisfied that the
lojority con trolling Congress meditated
ibfi deetruotion of the government — that
tbey preferred a divided government, with
the obuDcea of ponei and plunder.

Hiaiory is full of examples that go to
show that governments aro never destroyed
by means of either rebellion or foreign
foes without some fault upon the part of
r own rulera. You may turn to tbo
ptureB, and you will find numerous in-
stauoi's in point. The children of Israel
not, nor could tbey have been, divided
by thu wiokoducsa of Jeroboam, the son of
Ni'bat, who rebelled against tbo government;
but it required the mud folly of Kuhoboam,
their riglitt'ul Bovoroigo. to divide them.

If, during the last Presidential election,
these " conservative " Kepublicons bad
iwed the sentiments tbey eipreased by
ir FuiBB, the country would not bavo
been in the condition it in at present. Now
IB urge you, il you urn going to send
Ri'publicaus tu Congr>',!s at all, let us have
the full blooded follows, and none of lho«e
ID who talk one way and vote anulhcr. I
know I^v^oy wilt not cheat me. 1 hate
;o be chealEd. so i would rather have the
full-blooded Abolilionisw to deal with. I
juderstand thi.-ir position. The danger of
;be country arises not from these men, be -
lauBB you eas strip them; but it arises
from thPS" ■■Ci,us;rvalivea," falsely so
called.

Tnere is t. class of men who are always
vpry busy — who go nS.'Jt :he country da-
uouociug every mso who doe? not agree
with ibuiD ftBiilruilor to the cuontry. Yon
talk tu ono of these men, and luk him what
he is for. and he will tell you, if he t«lls the
irotb. that he is for diverting this war from
its Ifgiiimate object, so aa to make it h war
of emaooipalion. Ask him then — '■ Are
yon for the Coostitulion!" He will an-
swer,-Ob, no; the Con* tit oti on U played
uuE; tho South ba3 overthrown the Consii-
lution." Sir, that man is no more nor les:
than a tndtor, and whenever it becomes his
iuier«st, no matter where he may be. North
or South, East or Weat, li will betray the
couutry. Such men occupy n double rela-
tion. Iu tbo firat place ihey are cowards ;
I'ur tbey will not eclisi io defence uf theii
priucipks ; and, Beeoadly, they are traitori
lo the Coastitutiuu of their t^'jntry, foi

they declare that it iann longer bindiog up-
on ihem.

Now. it is pluiti that if we wait for .tucb
fellows as these and for tho negroes to put
down the rebellion, wo will all die before ii
i* dono. When this rebellion Is pot down,
it will be put down by men who are devoted
to the Constitution and tho Union.

One thing Is certoiu- if these Kepubli

cans maintain tho power in Congre.'i:), our

GovcrntDCOt. with const! tulionil liberty, is

gono forevor. If you return to tho neit

lose oil, and tbey may save all-

This much I will eay for Illinois— wo in-
tend to maintain our ground in that State,
Wo shall advancn our line aomonhnt ; and
I think thai when wo shall come to present
these great issues to oar people, duty to tho
dead, duty to ouraelvcB, and duty to those
lome after UB, will rally around
igh to drive most of thoao men
from Congreiis in the Stato of Illinoia.

One thing I know will be done — the is:uc

My follow citizens, I can hardly eiproBs
you my feelings when I have seen these
tetriblu tlj'sastors coming upon my country.
nd when I reflect that her free institutions
^re all tho heritage I have to bestow upon
loy children. I have soon more of the good
results that have flowed from our institu-
tions, more of prcapetity and happineBs
among my fellow-citizuos — than many men
of my day. And now, in tho decline of
life, with a eun lending towards tho twilight,
with a vigorous arm to defend or
assail, 1 shall endeavor cheerfully to accept
whaioTcrlhe Almighty may place upon mo.
liut, if it is in the providence of God that
lie is to punish ua with afflictions, to destroy

H that I say. that in the discharge of the
duty before our people, there is no power
on earth that sball prevent me from tolliug
plainly and candidly what I think ought to
be done for the welfare of our beloved coun-
try.

only ilaos every consideration of
patriotism urge ns to the vigorous prose-
cution of this war, if reslriotod to its le-
gitimate objects, but every aousideraliou of
interest also.

As for me, I feel Ibat ull thut I bold dear

at stake— all is involved iu the safety of

my country, end I would be willing even

worshipping once more nt tho same aliur,
aud all united in the cSurt to transmit to

;es won for ua by the blood of our patri-
ic ancestors. [Load cheers.]
Aa I have said before, oue year ogo there
IS a large Union sentiment in the South.
I view of this fact, what should have been
ir policy ? Should we not havo cndeavor-
l to convince iheBO people that beneath
tho Hag of their country all their rights of
iroperty wero GCCuro? I do notknow how
■ouaregoing to recoDstruoI this Union with-
uC some basis to place it upon. Such basis
re might bave hud in this strong Union
loment at tbo South. Who does not know
that two-thirds of the Becedcd Stutes weru
carried into the wiokedneaa of secession
ibsolutely without tho consent of tbo peo-
ple and against their will.

The hearts of these peoplu were for tbo
old government, in which they had always
trusted, und the old constitution which they
had alwuya revered. Suppose our policy
bad been to foster and enoourago instead of
iff that Union aentiment. There
would have been no army in the field to-day.
Ba^ in lieu of that policy of conciliation
which would have been oar salvation, we
adopted the policy of meeting thom all with
Gre and sword, and the fatal coniequenoes
-e not yet oil told.
Now, I agree that it is right and proper
every government that, where you put
iwn rebellion like this, you should punish
the leaders, but no government ever adopt-
id the pulley in relation to the people them-
selves that ours has. A few years ago the
lIungariouB rebelled ugaiaat Austria. Thut
is oue of the uiust despotic guveraments on
tbo face of the globe. Ttie government
succeeded in overthrowing the rebellion —
bow • Tbey eieouled a few of tbe leaders,
sent the remainder into eille, and passed
lesty to the residue who were not lead-
in the rebellion. There never was a
ernment that has not nuifiirmly let tbo
burden fall upon the leaders, while the great
f the people woro permitted to return
3UII1I' iheir allegiance to the goveru-
.^nd I will veuluroIoaHsert Ibatif,
afttr thi- b=tt[t- ut Fort DoncUon, the gov-
it bud adopted this policy of con-
ciliation, there would have been no rebel
army in Ibe lield to-day. But iuatead of
that being the case, they are at this moment
confronting us with an army more num>-r-
>ua and superior to our own. and we ore
■ompelled to call for mori; volouteera.
fow. tbe voluDleeriog now going on, in
riew of the doubt already ea^t upon (be
lubject, stands fair ; but it is evident that
lur people are not rushing to arms with the
sDirlt and In «iicb numbers as tbey did when
the former call was mode, when there was
hope that Ihe war was to he conducted on
more humane and conservatlvo principles.
In this Slate and in Illinois we sball prob-
ably succeed after a while in raising our
quota of volunteers, but in many of the
Slates they will be forced to drsfl. The
Congressional legislation o( late baa been
fetol to 03 ia every way.

Drafilng.

Wo intended this week to publish n fall
aocoant of the modo of Drafting, tho lana
on the sabjpot, 6cC; fio., but such n thing
is impoBsible frotn the confusion involved
in the whole affair.

We have been looking for tt detailed pub-
lloatiDD fromthe autboriiios, so that somo
idea might bo obtained of tho manner, time,
Ito., but as yot nothiug, eioept what wo
publish this week and have before published
bas appeared.

Tho Governor of Maino has postponed
the Draft there until the lOlh of September.
There aoema to be no taw, no regularity in
any thing. This breeds confusion, di^aatls-
faotion, and as tho Repablicaas would say,
" disloyalty," oa they make all mendietoyul
who desire the law fairly and striolly fol-
lowed.

Wii wero waited unyosttTdoy by ?JeHJra.

Wo hope Governor Tou will comply wilh
their desiree, and we have no doubt as good

went into the field of battle. Try it and
see if it ianot so.

War News of Ilic Week.

We approach this record this week with
no ordinary feeling. Oa every aide doabts,
fears and hopes hong, entangled open the
mind's future. We are told that Pope and
SIcClellah have united their forces, yot
ail seem falling back on the road to Wash-
ington, pressed on right and left and front
with mossea of soldiers, whoso impeloosity
baffles all calculation. A day. an hour.
may teU an owfol tnlo.

If reports ore trne, there baa been aume
pretty eovere nghting between the armies
in Virginia, but no regular engagement.
The atruggle appears to have beenin getting
poflilions oa the north bmnoh of the Rop-
pahannook, which divides the centres of
tho two armies, Tho straggle at tbo bridge
with SiGEL looks more like n feint to draw
attention whilo o flank move was on ;~oot
higher up the river.

Gen, Cox has abandoned tho '■ Crow's
Nest" in tho Gaoley Mountains, and is now
at or near Washington.

Kentucky is in great commotion again. —
It is said that the Confederates are 'iO.QiOO
strong ot !:>cmei3et, and that Gen. Geo. W.
Morgan ia completely surrounded ot Cum-
berland Gap. There would be no diSculty

hia holding hia position but for tbo want
of supplies, of which be is very deScient
cannot hold out many dayx without
them. It tho forco is as strong as reported,
which Eurrounds hitn, it will be impoasible
his force to cot hia way out, and n sur-
render may become inevitable.

The most distressing aocounla come this
week from Minnesota. The uprising of the
Indians, without previous preparation, or
knowledge of the Inhabitants, is most aur-
prising. There has been monstrous neglect
in the matter by the Government Agents.
They are the same Indians which gave us
much trouble five years ago, white we were
imor of Iho [then] Territory. These
I ore what ore denominated "Annnity
Indians." nnd depend on the prompt pay of
the Government annuities, il large poition
<\{ which is paid in gold and silver. They
will not touch "paper money." The on-
noity goods lllankel?, fco.,) they core bat
little about, but tlie money — the hard money
■they must have promptly orafaaafollowB.
This, we learn, the Government has faUed
to pay them for the paat nine months. —
Thisbeing known, tho Agents and State au
thorities were very delinquent in not being
prepared for this horrible emute.

is not necessary tor the Republican pa-
pers to dran upon their imaginationa to find
lOesb instigators from Missouri " at
work in Iho business. If the Indiana are
promptly paid thoir ouauitiea In gold or
silver, tbete will be an nprising all along
the frontier. Everybody aCfjuninted with
I tribes, knows that eucb will be the re-

BOlt.

Soldiers' RIoi.

A terrific riot occurred ot the camp nt'
Federal enlisted soldiers, ut Brooklyn, >Iew
York, on Saturday. It grow out of the in-
'quality of " buuntiea " and tho oon-fulfil-
nent of some oJ tbo " promiaea " made.

Seveml olhcera wore killed or wounded,
louses smushed. ice. Sc^. It is said 2,000
soldiers were engaged in tho riot, out of
which 100 only were found left in camp.

The $icb Lisi—DralltDB:.

It has been suggested to us that we call
L Gov. Tod to have tho eiok list publish-
ed. The people would like toknow, for va-
ious leasoDB. who the " sick and disabled "
je ? The city is full of rumors of dis-
barges by Dr. Hamilton— sume of which
may be trui>, ond others mtiy not.

Publish tho list, wUkOienamtiefdistascs,
that tbos<> wbo are ioitnd mof bo distin-
guished from tbo unsound.

Snch has been the crowd around Dr.
Hamilton's i.fSce (the Provost Surgeon)
for corlificates of discharge, that a file of
soldiers waa ueeeasary to heep order and
press bact the crowd.

LIS is an awful state of ulTnirs and has
brought a change in the minds of many
who thought our people were " remarkably
healthy."

bavo been furthor illuslratod on hard fonght
fields, marked by othlbitions of indiiidunl
prowcBB whioh can find but few parallolii i;
ont or modoru history. Our army ho
fallorfid in any of tho varlona trials ii
which it has been subjected, and Iho great
body of the people bavo continued to mani-
fest B zeal and unanimity which not only
oboer tho batlle-atalnod soldier, but gives
assurances lo the friends of conBlilotional
liberty of our final triumph in the pending
siruggleogninst despotic uaorpation.

Tbo vast army which tbreotened the Capi
tal of tbo Confederacy bns been defeated
and driven from tbo lines of investment,
and the enouDy. repeatedly foiled in his ef-
r r._-.. ,p[uie, is now seokiDc loraiatf
I a scale suoh as tnodora his-
tory does not record to effect thnl auhjugn-
'on of tho South 80 often proclaimed as on
IO eve of its accomplishment.
Tho perfidy which disregarded rights ae-
cnred by compact, the madness whloh
trampled on obligation* mndo sacred by ev-
ery oonsidornlion of honor, have been in-
tensified by the malignity engendered by
defeat. These passions have changed Iho
character of tbo hostilities waged by our
enemies, who are Ijecoaiing daily leas re-
gardful of the usages of civilized war and
the dictates of humanity. Hapiuo and wan-
ton destruction of private propoiiy, war
fion non-combatants, murder of captives,
oody throats to nveugo the death of an
ivading soldiery by tho slnugbtor of un-
rmed citizens, orders of banishment against
pnaceful farmers enguged in tbo cultivotion
of the soil, are some of Iho means used by
rutblosa invaders lo enlorcu tho sub-
sion of a froo pooplo to foreign away.
ifi^cation bills of a character eo atrocious
o oiisuroi if oiGCutfld, tho utter ruin of
tho entire population of these Sintes, are
passed by [heir Congress and Bpproved by
Iheir Eicculive. The moneyed obligalions
of tho Confedcralo Qovenioient ate forged
by oitiKcns of tbo United Slates, and pub-
licly advertised for sale in their cities with
a notoriety that auflioioully ntteats tbo
knowledge of their governoienl, and lis
complicity in the crime is further evincud
by the fact that the soldiers of the invadin"
armioa aro found supplied with large qiinT."

despoiling the country people, by fraud,
of such perllons of their property as ur

of tbo Generals of the United SlaK
gaged, unchecked by their Govcri
st-rvilo insurrection, and arming a
ing slaves for warlaro against their masters,
citiaens of the Confedernoy. Another has
been found of instincts so brutal as tu invili
the violonco ol his soldiery against tbi
women of a captured city.

Vet tho rcbuko of civilized men has fail
ed to evoke from tho authorities of thi
United States cue mark of disapprobation
of his acts ; nor is there any reason lo sup-
pose that tbo conductof Uenjamin P, But-
ler b as failed to secure from his
oient the Eonolion and applause witb which
It is known to have been greeted by public
meetings and portions ot tho press of the
United States. To inquiries made of thu
Commondcr-in-Cbiof of the armies of Ihe
United Stales, whether the ntrooious t
duet of some of their militrry oomwandi
met tbo sanction of that Government,
ewer has been evaded on the pretext that
nquiry was insulting, and no method
remains for the suppression of those euor-
mitiei but such retributive justice as it way
bo found possible lo cicoute.

Itetallalion in kind, for many of them, Is
impraclicuble, lor I bnve had occasion to
cemork in u focmer message, thai under no
•leesB of provocation could our noble heart-
ed defenders be driven to wreak vougcance
— unarmed men, on women or on childrou.

Dcoply as wo regret tho character of the
contest into which wo are about lo be forced,
wo must accept it as on alternative which
recent tnauifestalions give ns Utile hope

Tho exasperation of failure has aroused
iho worst passions of our enemies ; ii largo
portion of UiBir people, even of Ihuir clergy-
men, now engage in urging on eioited
populacu to tne citremo of forooily, and
nothing remains but lo vindicate our right:
and lo maintain our Mislonco by employ-
ing Bguiuat onr foe every energy and every
retource at our disposal.

1 apiiend for your infocmnlion a copy of
tbepaprrseshibilioglhe action of the Gov
ernuieni, up to tho present time, for ihe re-
pression of the outrages committed on out
people. Other measures now in progresa
will be submiiled hereafier.

allentioQ lo the legisla-

and ai

'His of the people, must reliance
bo placed lo scouro this gront object. You
can best deviso the means for establiahing
Ihol enllro cooperation of the Slate and
Cenfedemto Governments which is essen-
tial to tho well being of both at all times,
but which is nowindiapoasable to their very
Clistnnce.

And if nny legislation shall seem to you
ipproprialo for adjasting differences of
iplnion, il will ho my pleaaoro as well as
luty lo CO operato in any measure that may
bo devised for rooonoiling a jus: care for
Iho pnbL'o defence with a proper deference
for ^0 moHt socopulous susceptibilities of
tbo Slate uulhoritica.

The reportof the Secretory of the Treas-
ury will eihlbit in detail tho operations of
that department. It will bo seen with sat-
iafaotion that tho credit of the Govomment
securities remaina unimpaired, and that this
orcdil is folly justified by the comparatively
amoll amount of accumulated debt, nolwith-
inding tho magnitude of our military
operations. The legislation of the lostaea-
aion provided for the purchase of supplies
with ibe bonds of the Government, but the
preference of tbo people for Troaanry notes
has been so marked that tho leglalaUon is
recommended to aulliorizcan incrtast in Ihc
>/ Trtmury nolei which the public
aorvioe seems to require. No crave ineon-
""' oecd bo apprehended from tbia iu-
issue, OS tho provisions of law by
which Iheso notes woro oonvorliblo into
light per cent, bonds, forms an efficient and
jormanent Bafoguard agoinst any serious
depreciation of the currency. Your atten-
tion Is also invited to tho means proposed
by Ihe Secretary for fooilltallng tho prepa-
ration of ihesu uoles, and for guording
tboni against forgery. It is duo to
pie to stale that no manufaoluro i
terfeit notes exisla within our limiis, and
that they are imported all from tho North-
ern States,

gestions for tho legislation doBmed desirable

dation of companies, baltaliona and rogi-
ente, when so reduced in strength as to

necessity for EOmo legislation for con-
trolling military Iransportaliou on tb" rail-
roads, nnd improving their present defect-
ive condition forcea Itself upon tho atten-
tion of the Government, and 1 trust that
you will bo able to devise satisfactory moas-
■"es for nllaining Ihis purpose. The legis-

volves the service in somo difficulties which
aro pointed out by tbo Secretary, and for

that no farlker enrollment will be necestnry,

eilGt for colling such forces into iho field,
without awaiting the re assembling of ibe

In the election and appoinlment of offi-
irs tor tho provisional army, it was to be
iticipated that mistakes would be made,
and incompetent offioera of all grades intro-
duced into thu service. In the absence of
o.^perlBuce. and with no reliable guide for

IS elections, bavo been soinetimes uuforiu-

ista of our country, require that some means
bu devised for withdrawing Ihe commissions
of officers who are incompetent for the
duties requited by the poiilion, and I tru^t
that yon will find oieana for relieving the

Within a recent period wo have effected

R03& COUKTl', August 16. 1S62,
CoLO-S'EL Medarv : — I feci vocy much
obliged to youv Itepublican friends for caU-
you to republish your Kansas mes-
sage. It breathes the truo sentiments of Ihe

~ emocracy, and if the Republi
Journals would publish it, their friends
would derive much information from its pe-
an tbe while portion of ibatde-
luiied party— t
negro circle wc

ing of God, himself, onlcss He would go
for wiping out negro slavery. White slav
ry is not objeotionable to them — on that
subject tbey have no tears to shed. The
message h full of patriotic sentimeats and
prophetic teachicgs. Tbere is no fanati-
oisui in it. no inlermeddliug in other peo-
ples' aS'dirs; a fair honest constTuctloD of a
written constitution ; it does not teach that
the Conslitucion is suspended in order to
inub soma printing office or take some iuno-
man to Fort Warren; there is oot a
1 in it about suspending Ihe writ of ifa-
Corpus to deprive some man or woman
uf their rights. Ii is full of union and
harmony lo all men — suehis theleachiugof
1 patriotic heart. There is not a disunion
lenlimeat from beginning to end. Tbere
-s nothing nbout wiping out State lints, or
tbut [be Demccratic idea In this counlrvhsy
outlived the American Union.
This is frpm your old friend,

Saboeant Joel.

There woh conBidcrablc cicilemrut in
llarrieburg. I'a,, on Uoodoy, tbrt 4th inal..
in consequence of a bogus hand-bill posti^d
up on drad walls, announcing tbnt Jim Lane
<f( Kttusis. would address the n^groea of
that plaoi-. with tbo intention of inducing
them to enlist in one of bis colored regi-
menlM. The wfaoto thing was evidently u
boas, probably gotten up by some boys for
tbot-akeof b litiloeport. Bnt zealous nbo-
litionlBts, perhaps infnriated by disappoint-
ment that the band bill was bngua and not
genuine, charged that it wai printed at tbo
ofEcfi of the I'alri'jl and Union, n Denw-
craljc pojier, and now we learn by n tnlo-
graphio dispatch dated Harrisburg, August
IJ. that tbo editora and publlabcra of the
I'alnol and Uniun wero that o v en iug ar-
rested by direction of thu Wor Deportment,
charged with issuing Ireasonablo posloro
calculated to retard enlistment", aud token
to Washington.

Slight cause, it would seem from Ibis, will
suffice to produce the arrest of Democratic
eililom, ou the ground of retarding eiilisl-
ments. while a ranting Abolitionist can foam
nod veut hla Hpleeu ngoiual tbo Government,
and curse tho wbolu syiilem of recruiting,

SomclhiDg seemed to whisper to him
"Try it, perhaps the thutu will do!"

Fresh courage animated his desponding

eiolaimed: "Ob, my Lord. 1 had a falling

Their philoaophy does not run in that cbnn-

1.

W" speak of facta aa they sxisl— from

those facta those who have to deal with

them might havo in duu time beou prepared

the Icrriblo scenes which followed.

Wo know some of theso Indians very well

■th"y aro by no means as ignorant as Eome

!oplo may Buppose, but still when iufuria-

darn but bttleimprov-odfroDi their original

barbarism. Like aoiue of our aholition

proacbers and editora, they know no war

but tbat of esUnnination — where laen, wo-

I. children and praportyore swept with the

mi of destruction. This renders tbem

dangerous enemies and very uncertain

rienda.

Tho Rev. Hr. Rr'iGs, one of the Mission-
iriea who was killed with his whole faroilyi
it the Upper Sioui (or Yellow Medio ine)
Agency, went from Brown county, Ohio,
nty-fivo years ago. Of all tho Indian
siouariesbe was tbo most laborious, and
from all reputation, the most successful. —
atablisbed a little republic amongst
thorn, called the " Huzelwood Ilepublic."
created a Sioui alphabet : estahlishcd
iious literature ; opened schools and
taught the Icibo to read and write the lan-
guage.

Wo met Mr. BiUGS at tbe lower Agency
(Rod Wood) in August, \Srt7, in tbo midst
of tbo then Indian troubles, nud wo spent
, time in conversing on the affairs of
bis people. Wo then put this question to
-he bad then been among them twenty
I : ■' Mr. Rions. con you soy in your
heart, that in tbe twenty years of your
Issionory labors, you can show twenty
christians '. — one o year, such as you would
deitire to niako ?" After a little besitution,
ho looked up and said, "I do not know
that I can." Tu-day ho and bis
family are the victims of the very tribe for
whom he spent n life

lit, civilize aud christianize. And these
werd the boat Indians, on tbe wb<de.
saw north of loira.

A letter from St. I'oul informs us that
Joseph H- Biiows, so well known
nesota, foe ability and great business habits,
not at homo when tbe eighteen persons
of hia family were killed. He bad been 01
visit to Kansas, oud knew nothing of tb<
oS'air until he arrived on tbe boat at St
Paul. Mr. Bboivn is a native of ChoBte:
county. Peunsylvanla, and left there

o are not i-urpriaed that Mr. Se\v.\8D
left Wasbinglou oa tbe pabljcation of his
eilraordinary letter nnd RusSELL'.'i reply,
both of which will bo found in our paper.
Mr. Setvaild in this oficial — worse, diplo-
-letter, confirms just what the Demo-
crats bavD been ao bitterly denounced for
eayiog, viz.; Thot tho negro was nt tbo
bottom of this war? Wo sbonld like 10
■hot tbo.=e will now think who have
poaitivo'in telling us that this war
. brought on by tho trlovery ogitation.
Sewajid, in this latter, leaks out
tho whole secret — and oxposoa tbo hopes ot
'publicans, thnt there would be an up-
rising of the negroes and a servile war en-
element that tbe Re-
publicans have evidently based their confi-
dence, and it also accounts for two other
things, vi;, ; the rcaaou why they were so
lulogialio of every Democrat whom they
could get to cry " free tbo slaves," " arm
make soldiers of them," iio,. &.O.;
Bad why they have been ao chary of going
to fill up the Regiments.
Tboy wished to accomplish an end, but did
3 in at tba death " to
part in acoomplisbing it.
The plain reading of Mr. Seward's letter
and tbe conduct of the Kopuhlicans, loud
for tho war, but careful to keep out of the
nks, leads to no other conclusion, than the

Lord John Riri^snLL, on getting a copy
of this letter from Mr. Ai>AMS. rofera

id then makes both public. Tho purposes
of IluasELL are very evidant. He knew
produce in Ibis country,
and ho thoreforo takes special pains to cbide
.h a great anxiety to
servile war, and refers bim to the
freedom of discussing all questions in Eng'
land, to make the contrast more obvious bo-
tbo freedom of England and tbe doa-
polism Mr. Sewabd has been oiercising ic
tho United States over tbe press and tbi
freedom of speech '. This is as much as tc
Mr. Sewaud, that to accomplish hit
purposes of a servile war and tbo freeing 0:
tbo negroes, it was necessary to precede i'
by a despotism over the press, to prevent the
peoplo being apprised of his designs.

This is not only a strange development
made by tbe British Minister, but it is still
more slrange and alarming to tbe Am<
people. Now, tbe question arises
this letter written and sent abroad without
President Lincoln's knowledge; or was it

iei8. with tho United submitted to him and bis Cabinet for inspec-

Bctweeu these Annuity Indians nnd tbo
wild Indians of the plain, there bos always
bten more or less interconrae, and such
friendly relations as ore tho rule and cus-
tom among Indian tribes. In a war against
tho " wliUes." thoy all have tbeir grievoncos
which will, if not promptly checked, lead to
& very general combination, and vast trouble
must ensue. "

It is cot ueoeasary, therefore, for the Ke-
pablioon papers to draw upon our enemies
to find woEOnB for this outbreak, as much
»» (hey may he gratified at tho result. The
nholo thing lies in a misconceived ayslem,
ad the failure' of the Government to fulfil
its engagements. No people ou earth are
leote particular about a prompt fulfilment
''f promises ot engagements than the Amer-
ican Indians. Although lik* oil savage or
s«mi-harbarou* tribes, they are Heacheroaa,
auspieiooi, and not always to be trusted,
they moke no allowance for failures to ful-
fil cngag«menta. They were -promised
'inttji at staled periods, and the Govern
meat agents did not come to time — to mak>
the matter worse they offered to pay them
in paper — Tteaaury Notes, This only added
fuel to the lire, and led to the belief that
e?ort to pay one promise with another meant

natural dislike to what are called " aboli-
This dislike of abolitionists caused
the Repablioons of Kansas to prevent, by
Constitutional provisions, tbe civilized In-
dians, who had abandoned tbeir tribal char-
acter, from voting in that Slate. This pat'
tizan spito caused quite a hitter feeling it

VTe are inolined to the opinion that this
terrible affair in Minnesota will result in
driving: all tho Indian tribes from that State.
We aro decidedly of the opinion that this

Ibo best thing that can bo done,
the whole policy is changed, peace will be
iible again for years, botneen the
while and red races of men- The eiperi-
ment of njliing the races, red, white and

charlatans who have only been able to dis-
turb mankind, and reader society a chaos.
It is against God and Nature, and ho who
fights against sucb odds in our moral econ-
omy must fell, as oil their predecessors
hive done. This great truth cannot be

This is a vital question, and tho

people should demand a categorical answer

to thoquestion. If it was written by tbe ad-

and with theknowledgeof Mr. Lincoln,

ondsont abroad by bis permission, then Mr,

LmcOLN has been playing false with tbo

loratio war orators,

who have pledged Mr. Lincoln against tho

designs of the abolitionists for the purpose

of raising Democratic recruits, have been

either grossly deceived themselves or they

grossly deceiving others. —

Theyoweit to tbemaelvesand tbeir friends

In tho- first volume of Tue Cnisis wo

lind this oration of thu Nesr Englonder in

id inGdelity anil fanatioieni, which, under
the auspices of Senator Sumner, Theodore
Farmer and WendeU Phillips, have carried

address, caretully studied and prepared lor
'le occasion, prcECuts tbosu great truths of
i^tory and cardinal rooxiuis of our consti-
tutional liberties, which the lowering and
iBsive intellect of Webster and acoule
d brilliant mini] of that other great Amtr-
tn, John C Calhoun, had taught and de-
monstrated in ibo palmier days of our his-
tory, when pntrioliam was another name for
private worth und public virtue, for you will
perceive that the orator does justice, even
in Fanooil Uoll, to tbe great champion of
Stole rights and strict constructiODiat of the

oracle and demi-god of his Ueugenot and

emigrating from the various sections of the

nent and Hlnblo government, and from the
peculiar geograpliical position and natural
reaourcea of Ohio, ebo was destined nt ua
early day to take the foremost rank among
Iho Slatea of tho Union. Nor would it be

ond fortilo region, inoluding tho young and

upon tbe periun uf tbo Thrall boys by the Corbi

of a reporter lu the Afriimn. Now, for the
purpose of drawing ont ihu whi to-live red, black-

I induced tu send you the lad* lu they occur'

replied " No, nnt until I am dralted and bavo to

to which Curbin reulied " I gucai nut." Thrall
orted, ■' By G— o, we will mako you go, I can
ike hall a dozen like you go myself," oa which
Corbia told bim bo wo* a liar. Blows ensued,
ind the Thralls (four of them,) piled on lo Corbin
lod choked, scratched and kicked him until the
ipectatora interfered and parted tbo combatants,
iflor which Corbia went home, which coded thu
fight for tbat night.

The next moroiog (Sunday) tbo younger Cor-
bin boys went in pursuit of their horses, which
had escapedfrom the paatute tbo night previous,
and went to the farm wbero tbe Thralls live,
Tbey saw and eonvoraed with the Thralls ia a
friendly manner wbde there, Tbey came back
with their horres, calling at their brotbct's ahoat
thirty tods from Ibe poiot where tbey came a

veriiogwith tbeCoibia boys wbeu three ol t
Thrall boy* with their mother, came out of tbe

John Corbia called out somelbiog
they swore Ibey did not bear. Thu two Thralls

acing motion* at tho Corbin boys. At the rcqueat
of Iheir mother (aa she swore on tbe trial) they
turned around and went on. Tbo Corbio boy*
then got on their horses aod started after them,
it being in the direction of Ibeir homo. Alter ri-
ding a short diitanoe Irom wbeio they started, the
Tbmtls were seen togetolTtheir horte*, tie them

exist on this point itbui never been claimad,eveD

wo an a strict dUcipUnuian, and
of our own accord, into battle undtilled
and scattering. We belong to the old reg-
olor army of veltraos. not to the goernili".

The Drnit t

Gov. Toil has announced by procloma'
tiua tbat Drafting is postponed onUl ihi
IGihinst. So this settles the matter for
Ihe present-

War Sews of ilic Week.

We have terrible news this week— though
it very full in details it is enough to make
the beort tick. The losa of life must bo
nous, and whatever may be the other re-
aulls, these poor fellows can never bo re-
stored to famUy and home. Were there any
, or a prospect of a hope, of tho end
of these monstrous eihibitlons of human
ifferiog. we might pass over tbo present
with less regrets.

We contract our editorials for the purpose
of giving ns foil details as ore at hand, and in
fact in tho midst of Boob distressing mo-
ments, comments would be almost out of
place. We must refer the reader, there-
fore, to such news as is permillod to ronch
the public under out now republican sjs-
m of hiding candles under n bushel.
We sincerely mourn (he loss of our old
friend. Col. Cant*VBLL, killed in the Army
of Virginia. The Ohio 62d has boon
'folly cot up. Tbeir loss of tho noblo old
Colonel is hard for what Is loft of it. Col.
Cantweli. has been in active sorvico from
tbo first of the war, and baa seen very hard
ce. We deeply Hympathiie with his
bereaved family. Tho alaoghter of human
lifo ia shocking, and yet wo may consider
it na just fairly begun, if certain negro free-
dom politicians are longer to rule and dlc-
the policy of tho war,
'e should have more dialinot details of tbo
disaster nt Richmond, Kentucky, before ibis
1, but there aro so many conflioliog ru-
s that wo can risk but liltlo in opinion
as lo tbo number of killed, wounded, and
nets. This City and County are sen-
salively alive on the subject, us the Mth,
Col. McMillan's Regiment, was mostly
,do up in our midat. The material was
eicoltent, but tboy had acarcely been in
Company or Jtegimenlal drill when hurried
ito battle. Scarcely an officer or man
bad aparticle of esporience. _The resultis
It to ho wondered at.

Kentucky is in a moat onomalous posi'
lion, and if all reports bo true, it will take
than one buodrod thousand men from
this aide of tho river to lO-toke it from the
opposing forces collecting there.

" n. Geo. W. MonOAN is safe in the
Gap. We have a letter as late as the SSth
ult. They wcro all in fine spirits and health,
being on half ralious, lo mako what Ihey
have on hand last them na long as possible.
Tho fight at Chatauoogn is not very dofi-
ite. Much depends on results there. But
e refer the reader to tho scraps of news
i thoy will find them by dates. They will
quire some judgment to put them in shape
for ratistactory conclusions.

Wo have nothing late from tbo seat of the
idion war of consequence, A private let-
ter from St. Paul says wagons are continu-
ally orriving there with women and children
fleeing for anfcly from the eiposed country
aottlemenls. It alao Hpenks of tho worst of
savage barbarities, even to tbo cutting vut
if the tongues of women and children.

Tho St. Paul papers toko great pains to
irove that the Government Agents ore not
to blame, but that the Indiana were tamper-
ed with by persona from abroad. This does
not speak very well for those who had
charge of those ludiaus, if strongers bad
inSnence over them than they had !—
We know too much about tbeao Indians and
tbeir dilEoultioslo put much faith in any
uch stories. To make the story true, the
Agents there must be wen of the smallest
kind of brains and influence to be thus out-
witted and beaten. Tho story does not hold
good, on bath sides.

On lost Saturday tho following ticket was

Tlie Itadlcnl Policy.

It is painfully apparent to every obscrvor
■ poasing events that tho more radical of
tho Bepublicans in and out of Congress
have abandoned all eipectation of restoring
[ho Govtrnuienl. They have not for months
limed to accomplish this. Thoy care noth-
ing for tho Constitution — nothing for any-
thing, save to grab what they can get, and
destroy everything else. They aro trying
to mako Iho war a war of oitermination, as
agoinat the white men at the Sooth ; and by
every method in their power are encourag-
spirit of bitterness and hato which is
aicnificant of outright borbntism than
viuzalion and refinement of which no
so loudly boasted. Thoy enoouraco
en of tbe Border Slave Slates to make
sacrifices for tho dofonse of tho

. _.d are now threatening them with

tho instant cmnnoipalion of their slaves if
they will not themselves inaugurate somo
more gradual system. Confisonlion is on-
ly meant for tboso States, for here can on-
ly ibo law which has passed Congress ever
be enforced. They know that theao Slates
are tied, hand and loot, uud can not resist
their oppression, These aro to bo kept,
though only in part protected against tno
ravages of the Confederates ; while the Cot-
ion Stalea aro lo be left out of tbo Union
and punished. They aro to be used, per-
haps, ns negro colonies; at least, nothing
short of the actual eitcrminatiou of the
now promised.

Wool.

Wo have all nlong predicted that Wool
ould b(i active ond see hiobor prices, and
thia week our antioipalions bavo been i
than realized. Domostio Wools have
vanced 3 to .1 centa per pound, and Foreign
about 5 to 7 cents p or pound, with a tenden-
cy still higher. The active demand for
Kersoys, BJankots und Flnnnols this week,
has caused quite o slir in the Wool trade
and the business baa been larger than at any
time beforo this year. Holders are now very
firm, and are demanding nn advance on tbo

§ resent advanced prices, and we bavo no
oubt thatFloeooswillbringTO cents within
a fortnight. At to-day's market, 02i cents
was tbe current price for Fleece, and 50
cents for some kinds of Foreign. Coarse
and medium descriptions aro most wonted,
id the supplies are much reduced. Tho
ovommentisadvortieingfor Woolen goods,
id we look forward for brisk times in tbe
Wool trade, and very high prices. The
present advance in Wools is more than 50
per cent over prices current eighteen mo

Between Gre and fix o'clock in tbe moroicg.
General Manivu moved a mile or iwa below
Itigenviilo with two regiments, three lield
pieces and a coitee-mill gun, driving la the ene-
my's cavalry pickets, wtuch tvere posted in the
wood* on the right of tbo road. A eontiderable
body of cavalry was now diicovered retreating,
and General Min$oD brought bis guns to bear up-
ua them, expediting Ibcir fligbC. Soon after-
wards a battery, apparently about a m'de distant,
replied, and a sharp artillery nght ensued, tin
wbich the practice nai eicclfeni, both ddes be-
ing compelled to ibift pwitiun frequently. Our
gnus were BianSiged by artillery officers iros Gen-
eral G. W. Morgan's army, who had been home
farloagh. and being UDabIc to return to their
I, had been ordered lo Ibii special duty by

r General Lew Wallace

imand in Kentucky. MeaDtimeGcneralMaH'
had formed his Ino rrgimeati iu line of bat-
on tbo ngbt and left of the road. Tne re-
mainder of the division was ordered up and
formed on the right and left of tbc line— tbe left
hollow rvsliog in 3 corrvfield and woods. —
liae had scarcely been formed when the pick-
on the left reported tbo eBemj adraociag in
o. Sharp Gring was heard in tbat direction,
the skirmishers on the left were tuoa warm-
ly engaged. Not bing afterwardu Ibo enemy
"*-;ro dnren back, Ibe Gghting beiogiu nor lator,
.t rebel reinforcements coming up the Colooul
command of tkirmiibers leuorled that be was
bard pressed, and aiked for reinfarcemcnL<f. By
tbii time tho fight had become hut, Iho ouemy
pressing forward ivilh iafantry, and playing
sharply upon oar column with artillery. The
091h Indiana — a perfectly ran regiment, just
marched from the barveit Gelds of Indiana— nu-
der command of Col. Korf (formerly Lieulcnaut
Colonel of tho lOth Ohio), was ordered ia assup-
port. Tho regimeul on the extreme left was
then ilraggling under a terriSe Gro from superior
-—•--- and tbo C9th was obliged to move
open field which was raked by the reb-
el ardUery. But Col. Korf brought his gallant
Hootiert to a charge bayonets, nod dajbed
across the Guld unfalteriogly, men falling at eve-
ry step ; but tho noble fellows closed up with tbe
steadiness nnd lidelity of veterans. Their con-
duct is described as toagniGcent, and it was tho
mure prnisaxvorthy since the bravo fellows were
scarce three weeks from the eorn.Gclds and
threshing noon of Indiana. Their devotion
saved tho army at that moment. Hod they fal-
tered an instaot, their comrades in front would
have broken.

Meantime. Gen. Crult's brigade had formed on
the left. Tho akirmiBhera had been driven in and
Ibe batlle was opening all along the line. Tho
G91h stood fast and ri'plied to Ibe enemy furious-
ly. But the enemy soon appeared in overwhelm-
ing force. It was obvious the splendid fjOth must
go down unlets sopported, Tbo Tlst Indiana,
under the gallant Lieut Col. Topping, was order-
ed up, but through some mis undo rsian ding, did
not novo according to directinn. Tho Cytli "'
lost, pre!!c4 by irresistible force, gavu way.
Tho7istnow reached tbo proper point, but too
late to save the GOth. Tbe enemy concentrated
their fito oa it. Lieut. Col, Topping's hone was
now shot, nnd he soon fell dead while inspiring
his command. Soon after. Major Conckliu olto
fell. By this time Gen, Crufl's three pieces of
artillery bad opened at short range with canuister
upon tho enemy, and with cbeeriou success; *-"*
tho rebels pressed upon bim so hardly that he
forced to order the pieces to reliro in orde
save them. N'ot long after, tho whole left wing
gavo way, and tbo right followed, but in good or
der. Their olTiceni tried to rally broheu orgaoi
zalions, and the men respnnded with alacrity lo
every order they comprebeaded ; but moil of
Ibeni being wholly undrilled, were unable to elo-
cuto mauiruvers which
ol tho oHicers, as green
to give iotelligent comtoends. Tbe Grst engage-
ment lajled about two hours and a half, and f
loes was heavy on both sides.

After retreating between two and three mill
General Manson again formed in line of battloi
n range of bille, oitoadiog tbrou^h cornfields, hii
light covered by woods. UisnttiUery was posted
oa tho right and left wings, and when tho enemy
came up in pursuit, another sharp artillery Gght
ensued. Tho rebels finally sent a heavy lorce
through the wood* on the ngbt, evidently intend-
ing to turn the right dank ; hut they wero met
by tbo I6ih Kentucky, Colonel Warner, and
un other regiment, and another severe engago-
ment ensued, our men fighting bravely, though
In come coafusiuD on account of their eltremo
rawnesa. At one lime, they aucceeded in driving
back their asiailaats, but tbe latter beiog heavily
reinforced, preised upon them vigorously, and

It was DOW about two o'clock, and what w

— were pushiog rapidly toward Kicbmond,
Abont a mile from town they were met by Major
General Kelron, who bad juet arrived from Lex-

through the Geshy part of his thigh,

caped in the confusion wbich ensued when bis
hnoGnallybroko. It is said tbat bo is indebted
to Major Green Clay, sou of Geo, Casiius Clay,
for hi<j safety. Major Clay being familiar with the
cnuotry, haviog piloted him safely through Ibo
-■-' tinea. Wo are informed that General Nel
ide siiteen miles after be was wounded, but

refuge in a fence comer in a corn Geld, from
whence be woicooveyed loLciiogton by Major
Clay. lie arrived iu Ibis city last uigbt. and is a
guest of Lari Aaderson. Esq, His wound will
not confine him to bis room longerthan a fort-
night, piohably.

Xopenon could form an estimate lost nigbt of

ir losses, but they were undoubtedly very severe.

here wero allsorts ol rumors about great num-

>rs w*oiiaded, killed and prisoners, but nobody

emed lo iaou anything about :
. obable. however, that one-third . _ . . __.
troops engaged were killed, wonnded and cap-
lured. A largo nomber escaped to this side of
the Kentucky river, but it is impossible to say
' Dw many.

The enemy followed our fugitives into liich.
load, and took posMiion of that place after five
'clock. Some of their cavafry also punned fo-
^itives uf Metcalfe's cavalry, sad kif led a number
of them. Unas reported that CoL Metcalfe's
raea did not behave gallantly, and ttiat a columa
of them rodo madly through Col. MeMIUan's
regiment, tiirowing it into utter diiorder. We
could not ascertain any facta abont tho Ninety-
Gftb, which was the ooly Ohio vegimest in the
fight. The troops generally, however, behaved
remarkably welf for utterly raw levies, and ac-
cordine to all accouatf. the Silly-Diuth Indiana

>vered itself all over tvith glory.

Whtta the battle was approaching Richmond
the Union people became very restive, and du-
ring the afternoon many of them Bed in dismay —
some to the couDtry northward, »ome to Lex-
ington, othen to Louisville, and quite a number
to this city. Our corretpondeol "Mack" was
also among the unfortunates, and we beard that
' captured, but the ntmor was not verified.

This and Ihe arrest of foul-mouthed Ab-

Administration, undfortheirdiacouragcment
of enlistments, and other facts detrimental
to their interests, aro tupprctstd by these
papers. Some days since J. Bradburry.

Dear Sir;— Although I did not nntici.

palo nor eeok any reply to my formor tetter

unlcM through your official nets, I thank

or having accorded one, slnco iteoa-

me to say eiplioltly that iiothlng Jwas
further from my thought than lo impeach ia
any manner tho sincerity or tho Intensity
of your devotion lo tho saving of tho Union.
I never doubted, and have no friend wha
doubts, that you desire, boforo and nboro
all else, to re-establish the now derided au-
ihorityamlvindioaln tbo terriloriul integrity
of tho Republic. I intended to rnise only
this question : Do i;ou propoic lo do Iku
by Ticogniting, obei/ing, aad tnfordng Oit
faiTj. or by ignoring, ditrtgardingand tn
rjfut. defiling thtm !

I stand upon Iho law of tho land. Tho
humblest has u clear right to iovoko its
protcolioQ and support agoiuet oven tfag
higbest. That law— in strict Bccurdanconitii
Ihe taw of nations, of nature, nudoE God-~
declares that every traitor now engaged ia
tlio infernal work of dostroving our ooua-
try has forfeited Ibereby all claim or color
of right lawfully to hold human hoinga in
ilavory. I ojk of you o clear nud publio
'ccognitlon that tbis law is to be oboyed
sbercver tho nationol authority is rospedted.
L cilo to you inatoneea wheccin men flaoing
from bondage lo troitora to tho proieotion

ir flag, havo been assaulted, wounded
nnd murdered by soldiora of tbo Union—
uupunisbed and uurebukcd by your Gen-
eral Commanding— to provo that it is your
duty to tako action in tho promisua. notlnn
that will cause Iho Ian to be proclaimed aad
oboyod whorover your authority or thnt of
tbe Union ia recognized as paramount. Tho
robcllion is strengthened, tho national cnuso
imjwriled, by every hour's delay to strika
ijosou this staggering blow.
Whon Fremont proolaimed Freedom lo
tlio slaves of robcls, you constrained bim

idify his proclamation into rigid accor-
dance with the Icrms of tho existing law,

a your clear right to do so. [ now aik
of you conformity to tho prinoiplo so otora-
ly enforced on bim. I ask you lo instruct
jour Generals and Commodores that no
loyal person — certainly noao willing to ren-
der service to the Natioaal cause — is benco-
forth lo bu regarded as Ibo slave of any
traitor. While no rightful Government was
Ivor before assailed by so wanton and wick-
id a rebellion as that of tbo slavobolders
against our National life, I nlu suru noao

boforo hesitated at so simple and pri-
mary an act of solf-defonso as lo relievo
thoso who would serve and aavo it froni
chattle servitudu to thoso wbu are wading
through soas of blood to sabvurt and des-
troy it. Future generations will with diUt-
culty realise that thoro could havu be«n
hositution on this puint. Sixty years o[
general and boundless subserviency la tho
""avo Power do not adcquatoly explain il.

Mr. President, I bessccb you to open
your oyea to tbo fact that all tho duvotcej
of Slavery everywhere— just as much in
Mnrylaod OS in Mississippi, in Washiogton
iu Richmond — arc lo-duyyour onciQies,
id the ifflplacablu foca of every effort to
eatnhlish Ibo National authority by tbn
discotnfituro of its assailants. Their Pres-
ident is not Abraham Lincoln, but Jeffor-

!>avis. You may draft them to sorvo

owar; but they will only fight under

ntbel Ikg. Thoro is not ia Now York
tirdoy a man who really believes in Slavery,
loves it, and desires Ma perputuatiou, who
heartily desires tho crushing out of Iho re-
bellion. He would much rather eavo tbo
ropublio by buying up and pensioning off
ts osauilaols. His " Union as it «aa"i«
I Uniuu of which you wero not President,
lud nu one wbu truly wished freedom to oil
E>ver could be.

If these aro truths, Mr. Presidont, tbey
are surely of the gravest importanoe. Yon
cannot safely approach the great and good
id you BO intently meditate by shutting
, lur eyes to thom. Your deadly foe Is not
blinded by any mist in which your eyes may
be enveloped. Ho walks straight to hia

Wool Scllluc,

Messrs. Euitobb:- I wish, through
^your columns, to make o fow suggestions on
the subject of wool selling, to your farmer

It is a noticeable faot. that as soon a<
farmers begin to talk of tbe probable prlc-
of wool for tho season, and ask advice of
bnalness men on that subject, that thoy wilt
discourogo them in every possible way. —
Thoy will lell them that wool will be very
low, when there is every reason to believo
it will command n good price, and that they
had better sell at the first offer, when Ibe
prospects are that prices will rnago higher

Themerobant and meehauio are in one

Then why rob tbo farmer of u liberal price
for bis products, lo enrich the New Yoik
and Boston speculators, and in tbe end rob
yourselves of a liberal farmer's custom in
tho line of Irado ?

Can il be, becauit you exptcl lo buy a few

Now take this prcaonl ond last year's
wool seasons, for instance, and there is
hardly a business man in town that I have
conversed with on this subject, or heard a
farmer who bus not talked dlscouTaginglyof
the prospects of wool, when everything in-
dicated that it would bring a fair price.

Now tot us see what this kind of advioo
did for tbo County of Rutland lost yenr.—
Suppose Iho wool oron of tbo county lo bo
600,000 pounds. Through such advice nnd
influenco as I havo mentioned it wns sold
for from 25 to 30 cents per pound when
thoy might have had from 45 to GO cents,
rohbing tho farmers of tho county of 3100,-
OOO-

Now I wish to show tbo farmers or wool
growers that tho same causes that udnanocd
the price of wool at tbe close of Ihe market
last yoaroiist this soason Id u two- fold de-
gree. If Ihe wool grower had mado an av-
erage of Ihc prices of wools for tho last ten
years he would have found that good wools
iged over -10 cents during that pe-
, no tariff on foreign wool, with n
bountiful cotton crop, nnd uo extra demand
for wool.

How was it lost year ! Wo had no oot-

n, an e^tra torilT of 0 per cent, on foreign

wool, on army of COO.OOO men to clotbo in

all woo], in u calling which would cause

nut three suits ivhcn tbey

would not one at home. These aro some of

reasons why wool demanded n good

!0 at Ihe close of tbo market last year.

> same cause exists this season. Wo

0 tho old army lo ro-olothc, and a new

of GOO.OOO to provide for. The money

market was unsettled lost year, now it is

very easy,

Why, then, eball we not bavo n good price
tor wool 7 Lot tbe farmer observe the wool
narket closely, and then sot his slakes on
lis ivool. If tbo liaks commence briskly
md at good prices, sell, aud then look for a
duggish openiogof the murket ncit year,
or ia Dine cases out of ten the last sales
ifler such a year will bo tbo besl. Obser-
rnlion will show you that when tbe market
opens nt high figures and closes low. that
you may expect low prices to start with ihe
n, for tho buyers lose, and are
BB into market; but if tho sales
at a low, and close on a rising
figure, then look out for good prices oeit
year at the opening of the market, for Ibo
buyer makti. la ordinary times, when the
firstprici's raogo at 40 cents and upwards,
sell; and when tbey start below that fiaure.
hold.

If these BuggHStions shall beof ony ben-
efit to any of your farmer readers, I shall
3e well paid for the trouble of penning them.
And let nil business men and mechanics re-
member that in tho prosperity of tho farmer
jre they peculiarly blessed.

Upon Ibo conclusion of Mr. Ifouk"
''ecb, at balf-ptut 13 o'clock, tbe meclin
Ijourucd for no huur, aud aooii tbo Ihoua^
oods present wore scattered about the grove,
eating luocbcun, and engaged in vnrioue
games-
It was at this time tbat Cnmp Craig, n
Dayton institulien, cstnbliGbed by oui
frienda Adam S..LoviW.. and Davy C.,
ahone forth in nil its ottraotions. A tnblo
some twontj-fivo feet in length, '■ gotten
for the occasion," covered with substantial
delioaoies sufficient lo feud a couple of bun-
dred, was soon surroundodbya jolly crowd,
mostly from this city, and cbiekens, beef,
made a hasty disappearance.
iwd "satisfied," ano Ihor look
tbeir placea, until some Ecvenly-five or a
hundred had dined. It was n "great insti-
tution," and tbe genllemcn through whose
liberality and labor it was gotten up, deserve
credit, and will bo gratefully remembered by
tbn many wbc eojoyod their hospitality.

At balf-paat one the meoling again oa-
sembled, and was larger (bnn before. Hon,
L. Vallandigham then took tbe eland,
end his appearance woa greeted with tho
waving of hanilhercLiefs nnd cheera upon
cheers. After quiet had been rostotod, ho
proceeded with his apoech, tracing tbi
tory of our troubles, the causes which led
tberelo, nnd vindicating bis
Representnlive. Wo have hcBtd ronny
speeches delivered by Mr. VBllandighum,
yet none, in our opinion, that eiceodod Ibis
effort, or had a better oEfect on those present.
That ho lifts in tbo midst of those wbo fully
endorsed bis views was proven by tbo fre-
quent shouts of applause which greeted his
remarks. Ho spoke for three houra.

Mr, D. A. Uouk then introduced Hon.
George H. Pendleton, Representative in
Congress Irom Cincinnati. His speech wm
profound, lucid and eloquent, oppenliog not
' ■' '■ or partijan prejudioaa of the

, thei:

jodg-
iber eense.
He hod aeen in one of tbe Republican po
persof Ciocinoati that bo wa<i to address
meeting of the "Butternut" or "Seces-
sion " Democracy of Moulgomery county
bo was anxious lo see what kind of men
these " butlernuta " wore. H" found them,
OS he bad utwoys known the Democracy to
be, composed of tho bone and ainew of Ihe
land — of men who are the life, ibe hope and
the supportof the country. Mr. Pendle-
ton then look ap and discnjaed io an able
and eloquent manner, the mo?i important
quesliona of public policy. He diasoolod
the lax Ian. and ahowad up Ibe glaring un-
jaslness and iDCquality of its provisions, —
Tbe way in which Ihe Administration bare
squandered millions of tho people's money
under end without the forma of law, was
ventilated in ahumorous and earcastic man-
ner. The evil and peraiaious efiocla of tbe
negro legislation of the lost abolition Con-
gress were portrayed in nn earnest and for-
cible manner, aboiring how il bad, by uni-
ting in one unbroken mass the people of the
South, retarded and rendered more difficult
the speedy suppression of the rebellioo. —
After telling bow the people were to be
taxed for millions of dollars to pay for tbe
broken down, worn out negroes of tho Dis-
trict of Columbia, purchased by the Admin-
istration, he concluded with an eloquent
and stirring appeal lo Btood firmly ana im-
movably by the Conalitotioa which oar
fathers gave as, as the only hope and secu-
rity of oar liberty and freedom. Il was
near six o'clock when Mr. Pendleton closed.
and no I withstanding Ibe lateness of the
hour tbe crowd remained and listened wilh
the profoundest attention.

Giving three cheers for the epeoliers. tmd
three for " tbe Uoion aa it wis," the meet-
ing adjOomed.

The nnmbers present were voiioualy es-
timated et from 5,000 lo 8,000. The crowd
was considerably larger, in onr estiamtioD,
than the ono which aaaemiled to hear Mr.
VoUaadigham in this city, a few treeks ago.
It was mnch larger than any meeting which
has ever before been held at Union, and it
deservedly has considerable repatatioa in
getting np " big " meetings.

We have attended many political meet-

tukoo inference from a fact, which turned
out uot lo bo a fact, Ihe mcmbera of tbo
Le^jislnturo have not only been arrested for
a few daye only, but detained in prison for
many months. Tbu Government, ainno tho

of the transactian by offering these mom-

that mostly fell on our aide, owing to tho
faot that our army was falling hack and
ttieire advancing.

Tho whole of Eastern Virginia appears
now to be protty clear of oor Boldieia, ei-
oept along tbo Potomao. This throws ua
bttok t'l where we were one year ago, with
the important etception that forty or fifly
tbounand of the Contederalo army are now
in Maryland, occupying Frederick and all
tho oountry South and West of that pinoo
and within eight or ten milea of Washing-
ton ou the eastern shore of the Patomac ;
and, possibly, before this paper reaohea our
renders, Baltimore may be inveeled by tho
Confederate Army, and all communication
oat off with WaBbiogtoo, eioept by water,
down tho Potginao. We aoy this, from ap-
pearances at this hour, may be tho cose,

Tho partisan slung of " diflcourngiug ou-

of late, for any other purpose than lo get

could reuoh a polilioal opponent.

that the deolnred object to free

lat that those in authority decided
10 a Demotiat wna enough, and os-
peoiully to apeak disrespectfully of thoae in

Whether this authoritative decision might

MiGDiuAN, August 23d, 1602.
Mr. Editor: — I have telcoted, a^ the
subject of this article, a class of men, Iho
ilion of whoso nnmos has been
liufficient to cull down the most bittor do-
alionx, tho most loathing scorn, and
lost insulting opitbets Ibat grovelling
balA and unmanly tyranny is capable of pro-
daoing 1 and is there naught to hi) said on
tbo other side ? For nearly two yeara have
eso roon lived among ua thiia, ond though
conslant reader, wo bnvo yet to soe tbe
first arliolo raising a voico in their behalf.
Tho loiTOsl vagabond that haunts our streets,
if be will but shout sloud for war, ia upheld
by tbo community in heaping his abuse up-
most worthy oitizens that happen to
belong to the ahovo named class. 'T is a
disgrace to us as Americans — 'lis a shame
men. Alloning Ibat they are
wholly wrung, admitting that the course
they advocate is delriiuental to the interosls
:ion ; who made us censors of tbeir
thoughts, or their minds slaves to our will ?
But I am wrong in speaking ns though it
Tiossos that have Ihus degraded
themselves ; to tbe honor of the Demooraoy
lot it bo aald tboy have been free from it al-
iioal to li man. llut in tbo great free
ipecch party do wo find those villifiers of all

tbe wrongs of Kansas have hardly yet
died upon tbo air, thaic banners of ■■ Free
gpeoch, Fremont und no Union with slave-
holders," bavo hardly yot been carried
from our aigbt, and we find tho im-
mortal horoos bunting down every vos-
tigo of what onoo wo called our liber-
ty, trampling undor foot ovory law and pro ■
ideut. sotting at uaught tho most sacred
prinoiples of our Qovernmeut, to reach and
whoso only ociine. whoso every

of which have roiaod Ihirleon tottering oolo-
lo thirty-four powerful Stntos — soriti-
mont.'t that have been tho bulwarks of our
Government, und on which tho frantio blows
country's heart, aimed by tho same
Abolition horde, bavo lallen as harmlessly
now fall their mightier eSatta tending in
1 pamo direction. Is itnot almost enough
tell ua these men uco right when we seo
s wrelohes that oppose thom? Go into
what community you will nnd eeu who con
atitute this handful of men who have stood

ind tlliahiog eyes have boon unmoved amid
tbn raging elomentB around Ibo fauatioal
' " and Huiging waves of men whoso ouly

Go among thorn, I say. and learn tbeir true

Justry OD the other. He sees the gloriou!

Colnmbus was to the progressivociviliaa-
lioDand power ot Slates aud nations what
the settler in distant forests is to t^ooiul
coainiQnities. He wuh emphatically n great
piuneeron a world wide plan.

-Ailer eighteen years of patient study
and research— after disbeartoning repulses
from loinds which could not appreciate his
reaEoninga nor his aims — after many froil-
ksti negoliatioDS and humbling discomfit-
urcs, he opened to tho teeming millions ol
the old world the broad plains ond the ei-
hauslless mines of the new. Amid all his
efforts Columbus looked beyond to tho im-
portant result?, the fruits of his arduous la-
bors. Overpowered with grateful emotions,
he, like Moaes on Pisgnb's top. was permit-
led to view the promised land— tbo laud
which flowed with milk nnd honey— lh»
land eventually to become on asylum for Ihi
oppressed of olber nations- Ho was doing
the pioneer work of tho world, and AucniCA
eojoys the rioh fruits of his labors.

Vast changes have since been effected id
this delightful Eepublio by the diligent
hand of the early pioneer. Immense forests
have been cleared away; largo cities, b
lifal vitiages, and splendid mansions
decorolo the hUls and dales over a large
purtion of this favored land. The howl of
wild beasts and the war-songs of savages
bave receded before the steady advance of
(olightened states and communities. Tbo
U'nely son of the forest is barely permitted
—standing upon iho summit of the Rocky
Mountains- to give bis last lingering look
toward his rich hunting grouodB, now
changed iulfl the quiet abode of the white
man. These important changes
snlts uf continual eierliona by tbo faithful
pioneers of tbo new world. This is tb(
hist step to civilization.

In immediate sucoeasion tho iirts nuc
sciences follow, adding new beunties, refin-
ing man's better nature, elevating him stiL

his nobler powers. The magnifioeal i "

Tbo development of Iho arts and scicuces
greatly facililules tbo onward march of civ-
ilization. Their tendency is to relino the
feelings, to strengthen tho intellect, lo

10 elevate thesout to loftier themes.

Aguin: theso auoccssivo steps to tbo pro-
gress uf hiimoniEation, nnd tbo attainmenta

tion for tbo comiug triumph of puro re-
ligion. Thia is Iho glorious fruition ot the
pioneer labor of ail preceding ages, Jt
checks tho rising passions, soothes the
troubled heart, ana its gem'al rays ramify
the social fabric, producing "peaco on
earth and good will to man,"
^ III propogaling this holy religion, mil-
lions of noblo Christian pioncota have spent
their onliro lives, Thoasands are noio
notively engaged in disseminating religious
knowledge among the inbabitante of earth.
Though laboring under the greatest difficul-
ties, they were sustained by the pleasing
thought Ibat they arelayiog the suro founda-
tion of peace, truth, and righteousness.
Success has over crowned their noblo
efforts.

During the dark ages, when alt Christen-
dom was shrouded iu idolatry and suporsli-
lion, a few shining lights (lasbed up to dispel
Iho surrounding gloom. A Wicktiffe.
Luther, a Huss, n Foi, nnd many mo...
patiently endured tho toils, privations, and
perscculiona to whicb they were exposed.
Not coDsidering their own ease and safety,
thoy labored for the welfare of others, aniJ
to promote the hoppiness of future genera-
tions. Thoglorioua work which they began
has continued to progress, and will
tiuuo lo spread, until it shall cove:

Tho Christian, in the present age, has
much to do to counteroct the evils of (hose
tearful limes. Ho must continue to net c
noblo pnrt in such an important entorpriso,
yet ended, and it will
ce, encouraged by God's own

bo possible that this second nppearanco of
the 'Sword of tho Lord,'(0B the reverend gen-
tleman who bad tho pleasure of fieoingit,styl-
ed it, ) was an omen to the people of the South
that tbey should speedily carry Ihe eword of

Quid taken lium Ibo kuusea of tbo killed,

On the SSth of last May, Mr. Sowar.i
ought that a period had arrived iu tho
Amerioan civil war ivbiob fairly eutitlod
Jertako tbe inHtruatioa of tbo
StatCH of Europe, and to predict confident-
ly tho itcdulls of iho elrugglo. In default
□f auj tncniorable event upon whioU to
baog tbia dijoourso, Mr. Sownrd takes no-
lice tbat tko Eaglisli ebipsof NasEuu ato
supposed to bo wailing to lake advaotago of
a relaxatioa of tko blookado. Anotbor fa-
vorable oironmBlanco noted by Mr- Sewaid
tbat tho ■■piratos" — that is, tho ehips of
If uf tho Southern States ivhich have ocoa-
aioually sought refugo in friendly ports —
have vrilbdrana from tho ocean. Having
IhuB construed for himself, with more ingo-
luity than solidity, what ho couaidori) h fa-
■orablo platform, Mr. Seward procBcda to
emind uh that tho iadii^trial Hystems of
Weslern Europe and of Amorloa are lo bo
rcgarijod loss as dialloot Dational Hjstemg
lliuD aa DUO general comhiaalion of ngri-
ulturaj, oomiiicroial, and manufuoturing
ogoDcies. Tho prinoipie is undoubtodlj
philaalhrupio and fruitful; but whoa
sk for itH uppllcation ivo aro mot by
protoolioQi or rather prohibition in its nar-
ruiveat fiirm — by I aire framed, uot on the
priuclple of combination, nor yet of na-
tionui rivalry, but rather on priiiciplea of
rigorous oxolujioD and bitter hostility. As
fur as tariffii go, America is already ot war
nith Eogluod, and all these high founding
phrB°c3 can noithur conceal nor extenuate
tbo fuel.

Soward mentions, viith trhat may be
very einoere regrel, that Iho oivll war in
America tins been injurious to European in-
dustry, nnd draws the very reasonable oon-
Ihnt it is for tho iaturcst both of
L and Europe that tbo oivi
should he brought to o close. So :
aau go with out aicntoi', but hero thu
geoco begins, for, while Amcrioa cousidor.s
tbo only possible oonolusion of tho
be llio restoration of unity, Etitupo has
boeu rash enough to thiuk that tho oonali
ily be found iu the duality, o
perhaps wo might eay, tho plorolity of
Stoics. This opinion Mr. Sonurd requests
European Hlatosmcu to roviora, and wo can
hiivu no ohjuotion to ucoedo to bis invito-
liou, especinlly, as, in addition to olhi
vanfngod, it otfors us a most signal
of tbo vaoity of human wishes and tbe
soundness of human cipeotutiona.

Wo uro Grst called upon to observe 1
much stronger tho pojiiion of tho Fed
GovernniMit is than it was a year ago. Tbe
Federal a>jvernmcnt, we uro told, has ro-
tuken all tho positions on the seaboard it aa
t-arly lost — espeoially. wo suppose, Mo-
bite, Poosacolo, Cburlenton oud Savaniinb.
po.'Heesea tbo Missis.>>ippt — espeoially,
suppose, Vioksburg and Baton ICouge,
[t has forced Iho insurgents to butllu in the
ic^sible part of tho iusurrootioa-
ary district — but il has uot been riolorious.
Tho resources of Ike Federuls uro ineibaiisl-
^ and innrcnBiug ; those of Ibu Confoder'
B aro diminishing and nearly exhausted
illhoogh tho terrible defeats beforo Eioh-
ud SCO oxuuscd ou the plea that the Fed-
Is woro outnumbered ui every battle,
)thcr grounds of couGdcnco ore tbe
alroogthof tho Union Boulimeut in Mary-
land—nbeto Baltimore isotili kept down by
armed force; tho earoestuesa iu tho sums
>30 ill Miiaouri— where terror is felt to be
requisitti that mcu aro shot on their own
threshold without acousation and without
trial; Iho iieulrulity of Keotuoky nud its
firm devotion to tho Uniou— while, in foot,
to is covorod wilh gucrrlllu parlies,
) ovon illustrated its fondness for tbo
by tho invasion of tho loyal and
uolghbjriupT State of Ohio. Eastern Vir-
■ lin, Teunesaoe, North Carolina and Louia-
iB— ospBoiatly, wo auppoao. New Orleans
— acquiesce under Federal authoriliivi ; aud,
generally, Mr. Seward concludes it is a
siniplo foot that loyally re-appears every
whore just as fast as tho Govcramcnt ia
able to protoot it.

As every one of tbo utatomonts require
tbequaliGoatiouof auegalivoio bring it in-
to aocordunoo wilh fuot. wn may not untea-
souably olaiui the right to suggest tho aame
uodifiontion in tho conolusiou which they
ara intended to prove, nnd to assert ''
whatever ho tho oaso of the Cunfedei
of whom wo know eo little oioept by thoir
aclions, it is oortaln tbat tbo Federal ro-
anurces aro notinoruaalngnor uuoxhaustod.
Seward urges, though as yot faoln do
not hear bim out iu his opinion, that thi
uggle, if continued muoh longer, nius
nniuato in a servile war. Lot us grant
„..ii Ihia, for the sake ot argumunt. It wil'

Saturday evening as tho li
manifcatalioDS on tbo part of Ibeir friends,
but tbcir intontioQ of returning thus aui-
otly wnsfrustratod byonoof the most nat-
tering receptiond. Tho cars had scarcely
reached tho depot, and tho auneuucemont
been mado that tho party had arrived, Ihun
they were aurrounded by friends who made
tho welkin ring with outbusiaatic obeers. —
In a very few moments tbo orond, which

The boajlcd land of freedom is rapidly
.cquiring acothor and mere tip|iroprinto
lome, and tho people who have tho misfor-
tUDO to be its oitizens niu iu vain desiring
to fly for a cbnugn to soma region where
what Ihoy woro wont to look upon as des-
potism is tbo rule. Too much liberty is, no
doubt, as injurious to a naliou as too much
plum-pudding lo nobild, and tbo Federal
Government, with more than potornnl Holi-
clludo, Is putting its aubjeots upon low and
loss palatablo diet. Whether tlio said sub-
jects will relish Ibid diet is their own affair,
but Ihero are not wauling iadioalious of a
mutinous spirit, whioh may become very
difficult to curb. In plain words, dral^ting
oommenced in tho Staler, and tho peo-
ple do not liko it. Whether tboir ropug.
nnnco will bo overcome remains lo bo Keen ;
but it can only be overcome by urgumunts
I strong as steel, and as sharp ns tbo poini
' a bayonet.

Tho tfeoretary of War bas issued two or-
irs, tho appesranoe of whioh sbowa plain-
ly that wo were not wrong when we assert-
ed that drnftiog would not be popular ic
America. Tho tirst order "forbids all por-
liable to bo drofted from leaving tho

grunted that the Seoretury will make 1

self tho judge of tbe liability of any ami

ing to make his escape. Thus tbo Federal
States bavo booomy uvast prison-house, and
who ono year ago prided themselves
tbo liberty thoy oDJoyod are to-day in
bondage more opproasivo than that under
which the eabjeois of the lalo King Bomha
suffered. A county iu America is a very
small portion of tortitory, something liko a
boteuy in Ireland. Oa the tongue of laud

the war was popular— if tbe masaca believed
int it would be successful— the high houn-
r would have 611ed tbe ranks of tbo army
wonth ago. The ranks of the army have
ot been filled, ond wo may infer tbat tbi
ur is not popular, and tbnl ibe poopb
ivo lost faith in its aucoeas. The ques
Uon. then, is, if thoy will not volunteer
offered a considorable bounty, will
Ihoy consent lo a conscription ? Tho pro-
bability is, that thoy will not. Tho firat
levies nUI, of course, bo compelled lo join
the army or go to prison ; but, in tbo moan-
lirae, nn organization may bo maJo whioh
will cffeotunlly ond tbo conscription and the
war. In ludiMoa, for osample, a secret so-
ciety, consisting of 15,000 membora, has
been discovered. Its object was lo prevent
Pedotnl enlistment, resist tosation, and as-
sist tba ConfedcralL-a. In Kentucky, Ihero
is great excitement on account of Ihe draft-
ing, and many persons have been arrested
in endeavoring to leave. In Misaonri, thero
has been a collision between the Sinli
Iroous nud the populace, " Iho oitiaens hav
iug bound thomscivos together to prevent
- illment." In Now York, tbo Irish
vd tbo office of the Consul and tbo cry
i.femption papers rises loud above Ihe
general din. The police of New York ate
turned into a provost marsbnl's guard to ar-
persons flying from the land of lib-rty.
On tho evening of [be lltb, it was telegraph-
id tbat "tbo drafting order caused immonsfl
iioilemont ihrongliout tho Union Slates,
especially among naturalized o iti/ en a. Im-
mense numbers nie endeavoring to osoapo

oil this foreshadow ! Anythiugsavo a pas
aivo compliance with the tyraonioat ordci
of tbo GovDrnweiil. It is easy to pass
reaolutious; it is easy to talk of restoring
tho Union, or else making the country
a desert , but eo aeon as ic comes to tho
queation, whether Ihia, that, and tbo other
idividual who vote for euoh a resolution
ill [go aad fight, Ihoy politely decline.—
Tbo alderman who was invited to two din-
nors attended one, aud sent his alteraey to
tho other. If ihe citizens iu the Federal
Slatos could appear hyaltorney in MoClel-
army, they would bo quito willing to
take Ibeir share of the fighting; but to ap-
pear in person ia what thoy aro nllogelhoi

with them.

Tho seoonil order is, that uny person do-

order is, of oourso, o corollary to the other.
In a oouQiry whore men are liable

ug of this impulse. Tho natural conso-
i)ueuoe of oonlioiugmen as prisoners within

is just as well prepared lo prevent grumbling
nnd protestation as to check natural im-

sued to make men close their mouths and

STATE Ol- AFFAIRS IS ASIBlliCA.

If tbo people of America would only sit
down nud calmly consider the causes whioh
bavo raised them during tho last halfcen-
tury.'from 3,000,000 to IJO.OOO.OOO. and made
their country, unlike so many other lands
favored with the most lavish gifts of nature,
proverbial for its prosperity and progress,
tbey might derive from tbo refleotion con-
clusions which would lead them irrcstibly
to u policy of pence and mutuni concilia-
tion. America owes muob, undoubtedly,
to tbe wisdom of those great nud enlight-
ened men, tbo fathers and founders of their
Ttepublio. They devised a aohi'mn of tem-
peruto liberty, checked nnd coutrolled by
every eontrivanoo which might prevent its
tendency to degenerate into liceDliousness.
To the worn out victims of nrbittriry power
thoy offered equal laws, equal rights, a
light taxation, a freedom from tbe noccasily
of foreign war. No wonder that the world
stood amazed at tho spoolnclo of so muoh
virtue aud so muoh happiness, and gladly
turned aside froui tho vicious clcolo of war
and tyrnnny, in which nlonu tbo politics of
Europe appeared oapabloof revolving, to a
nalloQ blessed alike by Iho wisdom of man
and iho beneficenco of nature, and capable
of realising, ns far ns is possible on earth,
tho wildest dreams of the poet and the
noblest nspiratious of tho philosopher.
Not to any peculiar fertilily in tho race
which originally inhabited her, but to the
atlraotiOD she presented tu emigranta, uoea
Amorica owe Ibo position which sbe held but
a year nnd a bnlf ngo.

Does it never ooour to hor that Iho pros-
porlty which has beau gained by these and
similar causes is Uablo to he forfeited by re-
versing Ihem J Lot those who bnvo broken
asunder every tie which bound them lo their
native land and orossod a stormy ocean to
bask ill ibo sunshine of American institu-
lions, lo enjoy thu fruit of tbeir own labor
iu unquestioned peaoo and unbroken securi-
ty, say which of nil tbo hopes they enter-
tained the evouta of tho present melauaholy
year have not utterly deceived nnd falsified.
They cnmu sookiug for peace, aud thoy are
involved in a wor which, for tho enormous
scale oa wliioh it is carried on, tho frightful
loss of life which it has occnaioned, nud tho
bitter oxasporatiou which it bos called forth,
may challenge oompaiisou with tbo most
disastrous conflicts that have decimated
and degraded mankind. Tho Thirty Yeors'
War, reduced Germaorlo a doserl, and cost,
Sohlllor tells us, ibe lives of 200,000 war-
riors, but tbo American slrugglo has reali-
zed in a single year the dosoiation wrought
by the Austrian, Iho Bavarian, tbo Swede,
tho Dane, nnd the FreuohmaUi and happy

noorer lo n conoluslon, seems
?r overy chanco of nccommodotion
id more impossible. America will
not be sought henceforth by emigranta in
search of pence. Personal liberty, the
right to oxpteas one's own aeutimonts ood
10 regulate one's own actions, was another of
the blessings Ibat men wearied of tho nrbi-
Irary Governments audnrtificial societies of
Europe sought on tbo sacred aoilot Amori-
in. They sought, hut thoy have not found
t. Tho firat cflect of tbo war. long hcforo
my ono could bave forseeu Iho magnitude
if its soale or tbe hittorncss of its auimosi-
y, was to swoop oway that ono inslitutiou
IU which personal liberty depends. Before
any serious effort was made to humble its
enemy, the Government of tho United States
filled its prisons with discontented citizens.
Tho first thing the American Revolution
erected was tho first thing thnt the French
Revolution destroyed— a Baslllo. Tho civil
lurla in vain interfered, Their juriadictieu
IS trampled in Ihe dust by military violence.
And now, ns if there wns not enough al'
ready, to remind us of tbe Old World, the
conscripliou, which English renders know
only by tho eiperioneo of foreign countries,
is put infullforce. America trusta no long-
er tbe voluDtary energies of her citizens,
ipresscs them for a service which
money to any amount to whicb it may he
offered canuot bribe them lo undertake. —
ily freedom from imprisonment, but
right of ovory man to seek his own
bappinesain the way he thinks best," so con-
fidently stated iu tbe Declaration of Inde-
pendence, is thus destroyed by a singlo
word of a single man. who assumes to him-
self tho tremendous power of dragging from
Iho ordinary pursuits of life fiOO,000 of bis
follow citizens that Ihoy may pass through
Ibo firo to the Moloch of civil strife. No
Oriental doapol overventured on ao tremen-
dous u stroke of power, and no people of
European origin, except the democracy of
America, over submitted lo it. Turn from
the qnestion of pereonal liberty to tbo hope
of physical well-being. In afortm'ght from
this time will commenoe throughout the Uni-
ted States the collection of taxes more ruin-
ous in their nature and tnoldonoe, and more
vexatious and inquisitorial in tho method of
their oolleotion, than over modern limes
bavo seen. As if this were not enough, all
tbo transactions of life ate omborraased, tho
relations between debtor and creditor dis-
arranged, and tho intercourse with foreign
countries rendered almost imposaiblo by a
system of iuconvertihle paper issued in de-
fiance of all principle nnd ejrperienco, and
submitted to wilh the most perfect apathy
nnd indiffereooe.

These measures have produced thoir le-
gitimale efleet. Already people aro flping
from the land which was once tbe deaired of
all nations. Tho consDription has restored
to England nnd other European countries
many subjects who little thought to have
ever Deeded to plead any other nntlonalily
than that of their adopted country. Canada,
whioh has been for so many years passed by
with contempt by Ibo millions whioh flooked
to the more popular institutions of the Uni-
ted States, has suddenly beoomo a loud of
refuge, and thousands are re-emigrating to
escape that very government which & fow
mouths ago thoy woro prepared to extol as
the wisest and beat upon earth. But the
war pursues its course, and Ibo pooplo bear
with a tamonoss absolutely iuoreaible the
destruction, one by one, of oU the hopes
and all tho illusions which bad led them to
tho other side of tbo Allantio. There is, no
doubt, something sublimu iu Ibe spectacle
of a naliou so fervently wedded to one idea
that ; everything else this world can give
seems trivial and insiguificant in oomparisoa.
Instances have not heeu rare of communi-
ties that have perished almost to a man for
the purpose of preservinjj liberty ; but lib-
erty is among the very hrst things which
America hos seen fit to sacrifice. To tho
Ucudn — that is, to the resolution embraoing
a whole continent under a single Qovern-
menl — America is sacrificing its present
happiness and Its future hopes. Itethor than
be a Slate of moderate dimensions, tho
North will proceed to any degree of aelf-
immolaliou that may be required. It tronld

Tho rush for a freo ndo to Cincinnati wa.s
grent, oniJ it woa difiicult to fiud (juna for
nil who wauled lo go. Certain individuals,
who were probably actuated hy ill-feeling
toward Mr. Rujsul M. Whcelor, informed
tbo crowd tbut bo bad tno or tbreo guns iu
hiH house, and advised tbe men to go there
nnd take thorn, Accordingly a. large po^io
oi Ihom wero formed in line, with guija
shouldered, oud mnrobod to Mr. Wheeler's
residence. He was abauut from banc, nud
wo believn there was uo one in tha bouse
but Mrs. Wheelor, who is considerably out
of benllh, und nnolher lady, Tbe men were
marched into the front yard, nnd stationed
30 as to coDimaud the front aud otin side of
tbo heusG. Mrs, Wboolor waa sitting by
cue of the windona, nnd demanded to know
of thein what they wero Ihote for, when tho
''captain" of tbo ooucageous oompany iu-
fotined her that tboy wanted the guns, nnd
Immediately rusbed into tbo room where
they were deposited and aoii^cd them. Ab

with a cbuer by his companions for the gal-
lant and daring acbievemeal, iu hariog
succeeded in siealinj; two guos. One of
tbo guna was n rifle, out of repair, and Iho
other wna u valuable double-barreled ebol

that ho would recover bis properly

Notwithstanding the great nmount of

I^Tbe crowlh of conservative senti-

faot. Tbo only rjuestion ia as to the rapid-
ity of its movement. Will it grow fast
enough nud atrons enough to coulrol tbe
olcotious tbis fall 7 Wo believe it will, aud
think that even now, if tho issuer forced
before tbo country by the paraiatoncy of
abolitionism could bo delormiued by an
olootion, tbe people would kill Ihe Hcrpcat
■ the ballot-box. Ohio is awake and bc-
o; Now York is dolerminod to orueh fa-
uatioiam ; loita is on Iho move; nnd Indi-
ileuds lo lunko a good report. We
ahull carry Illinois aud Wisoonain, and
strange ua it moy nppear. we look for the
turn of two, nnd probably three. Demo-
atio CoDgressmeu in Michigan. From
,.ory portion of tbo oouutry tbero is the
most oheeriug evidenoo that Ihe people nre
~ tending to work a revolution in tbe pol-
ities ol tho country. Thia work will bu
conduolcd witb a temperance, earneslneFS
and firmucas, that will add another laurel
lo AuierioBU history. It will prove Ibe eu-
piioity of American oitiiions to properlynp-
pruoinle and conduct oouatilulioualgoreru-

Ihoy will destroy n parly of lioonso and

power of their armies, cruah rebellion iu

THJE CRISIS. SEPTEMBEK 17, 1862.

F. C. LpBIoimI.

In prfsentiDg Ibis eODllvmun for iLe suf-
frngca of Iho voters of this CoDgrPssioaal
District, it is fining wo should speak of Litr
as wo kaoTT Iiim, after an acqualdtanco ol
ten yenra anil upwards, and an inliiuaoy ncpt
oloiio with bis political course, but mnny of
tlioso other and morp privnto Tclations of
life that exhibit the mnci, and oitablish hi:
ahoraotor. The task, no coDOedu, is odboi
eitremo ilelioacy. Wo know a friendly pen
is apt to riiu jdIo panegyric, uud an eu> '
one to bo dipped in wormwood and gall ; but
our attcni|)t aball be in this brief artiolo to
"5peak of hioi as be is— nothing oxleuuati
Dor out;bt set (town in malice,"

As a politician, tbis gentleman bos pui
sued a aincular consislonoy. A Democrat
of the Jackson school in his very boyhood,
when impressions rather than a comprchen-
Eion of principles, dircolod him, the faith
has grown with his growth, and strengthen-
ed with bis slreuglb, until it bos found in
him an inOeiibln defender ; no carneBl, bou-
cst and manly advocate. Uis very nature,
unbiased by circumstances, would have kept
< it tound bim, a sleiting Demoorat.

How

BBi] dodged with lofty oristocrotio preten-
tions, but of tbo people — that busy, Ihriv-
iag. independent class, whose sinews and
ECDse are their patrimony and whose ambi-
tion is respectability and competence. Ho
has never sworved from his birlbright ; he
is of the people jet; with tbem he lias lived
— among them ho has mingled ; he knows
their wonts, their strength, iheir interests,
as they know his fidelity end bia capacity
to BCTTO them, honorably alike to himself
and them. And if ever man lived, who
knowing the American peoplo well, has con-
Gdenoe in their intelL'gence and wisdom to

Severn themselves, and in the end to pro-
QOo such results as conduce to their inter-
est, it is him of whom we write. This, in-
deed, is the great secret of bis political con-
siatenoy, of which we have already spoken.
Hja faith in tbo people has preserved him in
the faith of the fathers. Hence, he has
never been caught up in the whirlnind
popular excitement that ever and an
sweeps over this continent. When Aboli-
tionism, tricked out in Liberty's gaudiest
gormcnle, and, silvery- tongued, plead its
caose, among the thousands of tbie State
who became converts, and the many more
who listened and longed to believe, yet hard-
ly dared to make an open profession of the
faith, was ;iof, at any time nor unde
circumstances lo bo found the subji
our sketch. His Democracy was co-i
eivo with tbo nation. Under the C'or
tiOD it presented and protcoled the interests
of all sections with equal jealousy, and rec-
ognised no right thai one scotion had to
trample upon that of another. Ho i
the people of doctrines so insidious
doDgerous, and foratold as their results ivhat
was then regarded as the vagaries of a mad
man, but what time has verified as prophecy.
Again, when that famous Uidnigbt Order
startled the country with its unaccountable
successes, and filled the public ear with "raw
bead and bloody bones " stories, of Catholic
ambition, slaughter and dominion, and
fought 10 proscribe boats of our beat cili-
«DB from the rights of Americana, though
they had sacrificed their all — suffered much
and awom fealty to the nation, and in her
hour of trial proved themselves among her
most valiant defenders ; Ibis moa was luund
battling with all his might against these un-
holy conclaves, and trumpet tongued her-
alded the broad rights of all the people iu
accordance with the laws of the land.

So too at tbis day, when the throes of the
notion are for her very existence, and bests
of those she bus nurtured and fed are tear-
ing away at her vitals like demons, bent on
iiciiversiil desiiuclioD, tbo gentlemen whose
name heads this article. inUeiible in tbe po-
litical opinions he has espoused and so bold-
ly advocated, with true Democratic fidelity
and loyalty to the Constltulion and the
Union, crii^s alood against the unparalleled
wiokedneas that seeks the overthrow of the
governmeui. and metes out largely, his gifts
and goods to bring traitors lo ibclr merited
punishment, and the country to its original

Such is bis political career, and his polit-
ical standi ng. That in biB i^eal he bos been
over ordeol — that in many of lijs views ho
may have erred— that bis boldness may
aomelimeii bavu savored of recklessness, we
cannot doabt. Hud he been otherwigo, be
would nut be tbo plain piece of commou
mortality we claim him lo be : but that be
bes at all limes been uurneat and honest,
cannot be ijuestioned. therefore we olaiin for
him the ciedit of thesorare political virtues.

Socially, he is what Americans call "olev-
~~ " And well he deserves tbe appellation,

■° --^tion ho knowa every body,

miu lu lurn every body knowa him. Ho
po!Bcases iu uu eminent degree that power
of adaptation which makes nim part of eve-
ry crowd chance places him in. He can
pitch quoits, bhoot at a mark, run at a foot
race, score ut a trolling match, or he tan
argue oWficly a legal proposition, analyse
knotty questions niih celerity, counsel clear-
ly, maku a good speech on the stnmp or In
the forum. We do not claim that be esoels
jn all these, but <vb know he performs them
all well. It is this veraalality ibat id tbo
secret ol bi» popularity. Ii is because of
these that every onu culls him Frank— and
feels the ease of familittriiy so soon aa they
know him. Should Ibe people ti'ud him to
Washington, us ihey doubiless will, one
winter will auffice for every member of both
buuaes, und half tbe people of the oily to
make bis acqoaintiinco. He will not bo ao
much a favorite with Ibe high llviog, fush-
iouable. aristocratic poriiouuf tbe city, bo
cause be bules the formality of etiquette,
and will not surrnount tbe barrier lor all it
protects; still, even they will like him fur

but he is OS firm ns them all, and will wield
an iDlIaencc both iu tho council chamber
and in the nation equal, if not greater thou
either of tbem. Ho will prove himself a
ready, courteous debater — willing to "ebiver
alonoe " with the champion. Familiar with
parliamentary tootles, he will never trans-
gress. Cool, calm and deliberate, Lo will
mrcly be called to order, and never be found
threatening or bnllying a member, or per-
forming those pugilistic gyrations, that of
late years, has so disgraced that body. —
Tbo interests of his constituents will be
wotchod with a jealous care, and no power
can siverva him from what ho conceives bis
duty — and be is beyond tbo possibility of

contractor who shall undortnko to bribe him!
Wo do not cxpoot him to prove a /;re<it maa

tornbly disappointed if he does not prove a

The dispatchea from tbe scene of action
in Virginia, announce that Maj. Gen. Philip
Kearney was killed in a. severo eugagment
near Cbantilly, about two milea uorth of
Fairfaj Coort House, on Wednesday
ing- Thia to us is a moat serious loss, and
one of the most serious wo bavo yet sus-
tained among our Generals; Bat ten have
not heard of tho " one armed devil," os the
rebels termed Gen. Kearney, whoso appear-
on the field naa always o signnl for the
daring conduct, and tbo severest fight-
The MnrEbul Noyof our armies, ho
always was in tbe front, leading ou his men,
ttorly regardless of self. Of fear, ho
not what it was, as thousands who
have followed him can attest. It mattered
not whether a regiment, brigade or bis whole
id was to perform a doty, the Gen-
alwaya with them, and wo now learn
that befell while leading, on apecial duty,
oneoutof the seventeen regiments in bis
charge to the tiold, Jtashneas was the great-
est fault of this brave soldier, for in the
hour of battle his position personally was
never deemed of suffioieut importance to
warrant tho least regard for rules of war.
Many a time the writer of this has heard
the prophecy that "Phil" Kearney would
sacrifice bia life unnecessarily, but upon bia
mind such fears made not impression.

The deceased served through the Mexican
war, us Major wo believe, end lost an arm
there. When tho rebellion broke out he
promptly offered bis services. and was com-
missioned a brigadier- general- Very soon
McClellun give him command of a division,
consisting of Berry's, Jameson's and Dir-
ney's brigades. With tbis division ho dis-
tinguished himself at Vorktown, Williams-
burg, Fair Oaks, (where his valor saved the
day.) White Oak Snamp. tbo Cross Heads,
id Malvern Hills on tbo ill-fated Peninsu-
, and lately near Washington, uuilerPope.
As a disciplinarian, he was second to none In
the army. For tbis reason many of bis offi*
cers thought him harsh, for so deicrminod
was Kearney that the strictest discipline
ehoulu be maintained, that he would ofiea
forciblo sort of language. —
Tbe men regarded him as a hero, and when
he rode through the c^mps they would
ighten themsolvps up and put on tbe
t soldierly appearance. All were always

be the man found neglecting bis duty. On

He was twice breveted for gal-
bntry in uclion, and in one of tho last bat-
•'ea received n aovoro gunshot wound in tbo
lot, from which he suffered lu ihe time of
is death. Upon his return to tbo United
States, ".Major" Stevens was sideeted by
tbo dialinguisbed Professor Bucbe to por-
rm tho duties us ohief of the Coast Sur-
■y office at Wasbiugluu.
General Stevens was afterwards Governor
of Washington Territory, and beeauie
known as an ablo executive oflioer. A Ter-

ty to distinguished himself. But Governor

Congress of the war debt of Washington

that he would not allow one dollar to b<
paid for lobbying tho bill by those inter-
ested in the payment of tbo debt.

Although iho Chairman of the Breckin-
ridge Eiccntive Commitieo in tho Presi-
dential campaign of J8G0, end thns inti-
mately- usaooiatcd with tho Southern leaders,
he was never taken into Iheir treasonablo
councils, and at the first declarotion of So-
cesBionism, he opeuly denounced them.
His iulimacy and inflaenco with President
Buchanan now enabled him quietly to per-
form what was, perhaps, tho moat important
sorvioo of bis life. He urged upon the
President the prompt dismissal of Floyd
and Thompson from tho Cabinet, and press-
ed him to trust to tho counsels of General
Scott. He was, during tho winter, in daily
Itation with tbo offloora of tho army

At the cloao of the Bession of CoDgrees
ovemor Stevens proceeded to Washing-
ton Territory, and while in the remotest
pact of that rerritory heard of the attack
on Sumter. Ho instantly off'erod bis aervicea

Last winter, General Stevens waa made a
Brigadier, end commanded a brigade in the
Port Royal expedition. After having serv-

had been much diminished by actual loss in
battle, and by fatigue and ciposnre — so
that, although I had been joined by a de-
iBchmenC nnder Gen. Reno cud tho otbtr
divieioti of MoDoweH'a corps, my force
barely numbered forty thousaud men.

Of ibe a heavy rain fell, which ren-
dered the lords impassable for twenty-four
hours- As eoon as I discovered tbif, I con-
centrated my fotcea, and marched rapidly
apon Sulphur Springs and Waterloo Bridge
to drive back the forces of the enemy,
irbioh had succeeded in crofijing at these
points. This was saocesBfullr (Tone, uiid
the bridges destroyed.

I passed ono day — or rather port of one
— at Wnrrenton and beyond. The enemy
still ounUnued to move alowly around along
the liver, making every ford with artillery
and heavy foroe* of infantry, bo that it was
impassible for me to attack him, oven with
the greatly inlerior forces under my com-
mand, vrltbout passing the river over forda

anmbors.

The movement of Jackson toward White
Plains and in thodireolion of Thoroughfare

frontcd moot Sulphur Springs and Water-

Fortunately Hooker bad handled tho ormy

Dowi-li'.s adveneo (Gibbon's Brigade) m^'t
tho force of Jackson retirinp from C'enU-e-
iUo. and about six miles Irom that place.
A very sharp skirmish took place, ended by
tho durkai'ss, in which the brigade of Gib-
behaved very band«onicly, and suffered
heavy loss.

Sigel was clotoat hand nith his corps,
but did not join the aotiou. I instructed
Kearney to movo forward at early day
dnwu toward G>iinc3ville, closely followed
by Hooker and Redo, and engogo the ene-
my thus placed between McDowell and
Sigel on the west, and PiU John Porter on

forces under Heiutzemau and Sigel, caution-
ing them not to go fnrllier than was ueces-
bary to eSuet this junction, a* we might be
obliged to reUro behind Bull Run that night
for subsistence, if nothing else.

HeinlMlman matched eetly from Center-
ville toward Gainesville, closely followed by
Reno. Meantime, shortly after daylight,
Sigol's and Reynolds' Division of McDuw

I do uot hesitate to say that if tho oorpi
of Porter hud attacked tho enemy in Dauk
on the afternoon of Friday, as ho had my
written order to do, we should have utterly
crushed Jackson before tho forces under
Lee could have reached bim. Why he did
not do eo I oaunot understand.

Our men, much worn down by bard »er-
vioo nnd cunlluuDUa fightiug for many pre-
vions days, aud very short of provisions,
rested on their guns. Our huraca hud had

fpjr which the asserted objectB n{ the war—

If imch is tbe fact, why doea President

Both cannot be in their senses. Both citn
not receive the sanctioa of the people, un-
less they are as orn.iy and ceckloas aa those
who would lead and T;i!f-load Ibom.

Mr. Barcom has learned one thing surely
—and tbnt he and bia friends acouted wilh
contempt lost winter when tho people were
petidoning thi- Li-gialaturo by tbuuaands
and tons of tbouiiands, vi::. : that tho at-
tempt to make Ohio a depot for runaway or
carried away oegioea, is not paying very
well politically. He therefore dispoied of
Iho subject and of Mr- Cox's apcech, by
Msertiona quoted above which run foul of
the President, and of Congress who voted
the money of the people out of the national
treaaury ij transport these freed negroes
■' beyond the sons I " Out of ono perpleiity

lolves tbe Proaident of his own cheioe and

ing, und bo may sei.^e on whichever horn be
Ibinksniay best s.tvohini.

Thii President Unowa well, und Baecom
ought (0 know it. that if slaves of tho South
for-iibhi freed, (hey and their originol
master.! cannot, will not, remain thern to-
gether in the altered cflndition — when that

Wo draw tho conclusion, from tho follow-
ing article in (he Cincinnati Gazelle, tbnt
the people of that cily ore returning to
Iheir eeuaes. Tho losses le Cinoinuati
alone cannotbniesa than five millions of
dollora. in a businoEs point of view, os the
penalty of their recent fright- No city
nlnmored lender or earlier for this war than
Cinoinoali. Thoy echoed Ibe war speeoh
of (heir Ileicrend nepresontulive (Mr. Gdr-
li:y) in Janunry, IBCI, to tbe very henTone
and cried: Let loose tbe dogs of cm-n-
age. Since then the same people, or their
doily "rgnus. tho Gateti', Cojnr:tteial and
Time^'. clam.jrcd as loudly for martial law,
and finally (bey got it. at e sad oxpenso of
money and nervousness.

Wo warned them of all this in lime and
wer,i met with ridicule and contempt. Wo
told, iiineleen months ago, when all this
might easily have been avoided, what they
might espect and hew to avoid oatastropby,
but they mere deaf to reason und rushed on
to tho osperiment. Wo should bo gind to
know that (hey had seen and felt (bo worst

guilty of any act of treuson— not for opinion's
sake, not lor political diffetencei- let him be pro-
ceeded against according (o law, and, if guilty,
let him perish on a gallowa as high as Raman's:
It is because I would avoid tbeio hoirora tbat I
call uu the President to keep the exorcise of Ibe
military law where the Conitilulion keeps it— in
the army and naiyt and to see to it thnt noman,
not In the army and navy, shall be arrested with-
out " due proeejs of law,"

Hear the Cnnftilutioo again: "Ho person
(hall be deprived of life, liberty or property,
without due procesa of law.' "The accused
shall enjoy the right to aspeedy and public trial by
an imparlial jury. ' Woe Ibij. was eilber of
these rights " eajoyed by Flandera, or Mulooe,

thority to make tbeao artesls. 1 have as good a
lighi Io arrest tho President or any one ol his
Cabinet, as ha or they have to arrest me or auy
ether citizen in Ibis manner. Tho Constitution
is broad enough and strong enough for any
emergency. It pointa out the mode of arreet and
trial wherever thero is actual or suspected guilt.
Let it be obeyed, I too have sworn tu suppact
that OonstilutioQ, and niure than that, Hianilonc
I demand that all men, from the humblort

tizeu up to the President shall ba made to obey

likoivisc. Iu no other way shall we have lib-
._ty, order, security. I was bom a iroeman. I
shall die a freeman. It is appointed lo oil men to

Although M 0 expected a largo gaUieriue of tbe
people on Saturday last, ive bad no idea wo
ihould aee such an immeoae and spuntauvoui

the largest meeting held here for yeara. It wai
not a ahow^demcsatratiou, but nn outburst of
popular feeling, andanintonia desire on the part
of the people 10 hear apecebea on the pre.ient

At one o'clock P. M., Mr. V. oppe&red on tho
platform, which was loUotved by tbe moat en-
Ibusiasiic cheering. Ho commenced his apeedi
by faying that if be were addreaaing a military
meeting be should speak of milllar^ affairi. bul

proceeded in an eloquent and poiterful speech of
threu hours duration, ti> diicuaa (ho cau)..-a of the

clear and forcible manner the fatal coasc<juences
of the acta of the lait soiilOD ol Congre!], and
the new trinity which that Abolition biMly had set
up for tbe peoplo to worship, nafflely — tax, 5gbt,

SiB :— I have tbe honur to tranamit the
following report of the part taken bj the
Iroope under my commnnd in tho battles
fought near Richmond. Kentucky, on tho
2!ith aud ;jOth days of Auguat. 13iH.

On Friday, the OUth of August, n courier
arrived nt my biadquarters, some two miloa
south of Kiobmond, at 11 o'clock A. M..
beariflE a ooramunication from Lieutenaut
Colonel Sluadij. oomtnandiue a small da-
taohment of cavalry in thp neighborhood of
Kingston, five Ox els miles .south of ino.
Colonel Mundny iuformed me. in this coin-
muoication, that he holieved Ihe enemy
wore advancing iu considerable foroe. I
oauaed two copies of Col. Muuflny's letter
to mo, to be inndB out. one of wbinli I aenl
to Liiucoster and the other to Leiingl^i
directed to you, not having been iafornuii
at which j-ou might liB found, lalso aei.i ..
wrillou inesMgii to Col. Huudaj-, directing
him to hold the i^uemy in check, nud ascer-
tain if Doiatblu hia strength nnd poailion;
nljo lo learu if tho enemy had loft tho moin
road nud (aknn either to the right or (he lefl
from tbo turupike I'oad, near the foot of Big
Hill wilh any of his forces. I ordered tlio
men to stand to arms, in tho 1st brigade.
and be rea3y to luovo at a moment's warn-
ing. I olso sent forward four uddilionn!
oompnuiea to s(rengtheo the picket which 1
already had in that direction, under the
command of Lieut. Col. Wolfe, of tbo l(Jth
Indiana.

At 2 o'clock P. M. of the aauio day, a
measenger arrived aud informed mo that the
cavalry under command of Col. Metcalfe,
and Lieut. Col. Munday, and the infantry
piokot under command of Lieut. Coi. Wolfe,
were tetroating as faat aa
cumii; and that (he enemy,
of four or five thouaaod, was pressing hard
upon (hem, Tbe only question for me now
(0 de(oruiine was whe(hor I should allow tbe
enemy to attack me in my camp, or whether
I should advance to meet bim. It did not
(uko nie a momsut to deoide whioh course
to pursue, as nil tho hills a nile aud a half
south of mo completely commanded my
camp, and I did not ibink it my duty to al-
low tho enemy lo obtain possession of them
without astruggle. I thereforo ordered for-
ward ibe 1st brigade, consisting of tbo 15th,
5.'>Ih, C9tb aud 'lat ludjana regiments, and
tbe nrlillery under command of Lieut Lam-
phiei. When I had advanced thiee quarters
of a mile, I diaoavored a heavy column of
tho enemy's cavalry, half a mile east of tbe
road. I immediately ordered Lieut, Lam-
pbier (0 get a section of bis actiltory into
position and open upon the enemy, whioh
bo did with admirable effect, scattering tho
enemy in every direction.

1 then moved fontord a mile and took
possession of a high ridge, formed line of
battle on the right and left of tho rood, with
artillery protecting caoh flank, and com-
mnnding tbe open country and turnpike
road as fat aouth ue Rogersvllle, Tbe ene-
my in a few minutes made bis appearance
in considerable numbers of cavalry, infan-
try and attillery. I opened, upon him with
my artillery, and after a sharp skirmish of
OD bortr'a duration succeeded iu driving him,
in somo confusion, from tbo tield, capturing
some prisoners, horses and one cannon.

1 advanced ogoin to Eogerfiville, distant
about n mile, whom I bad the men biffouao,
with orders to sleep on tbeir arms, and sent
forward Colonel Metcalfe with his cavalry
to pursue the ouemy. and ascertain, if pos-
sible, what his strength was. Colonel Met-
calfe returned about 11 o'clock. P. fil., and
stated tbat he bad passed down the road in
tho direction of Big Hill, six miles, and Lad
there ouoouulorad some of tbo enemy's
cavalry pickets, who, after a slight skir-
misb, retired and fell back some distance,
Colonel Metcalfehora bad twomen killed, and
two wounded. At the same time I sent out
tbe cavalry to scout tbe road. 1 also sent
on order to General Cruft to place a strong
picket on Ihe Lancaster pike, and on the
road that comes into Itlcbmoud on the east
aide, aud to bold his brigade in readiness to

On tbe morning of tbe 30tb at 4 o'olook
I caused tho men t<:> stand to arms, direct-
ing that there he details made from each
company to make coffee aud fill the can-
teens with froah water. At 9 o'clock I as-
certained that the enemy was advancing
upon mo, and sent an order to General Ctuft
tu join me with all the forces undit his
command as quickly as possible, whereupon
r gave ordera for a lorward movement ; tak-
ing tbe advauoo myself with Ihe 53tb Indi-
ana. I met tbo enemy's advance half a
milo beyond BogersvillBi and drove them
back, took possesaiou of some wood:

the left of Ibe road behind a fence, the G9th
ludiaua on tbo right of tbo tond. artillery
on tho left of tbe a.'ith on high ground, tbe
7Ist Indianu three hundred yards in the
roar as a support for the hat(ory and as a,
reserve. I ordered akirmiahers to be thrown
in iront wbioh was doue, tboae of tho Sath
ludiaua opening tho battle in tbe most gal-
lant stylo. In a few minutea. the ICtb In-
diana coming up, I ordered It to take posi-
tion upon tbo left of the .')5th in tbe woods,
\ThiDb tbey did, gallantly maintaining their
ground against a heavy force of ilio euemy
more than an hour, when an attempt was
made to turn Ibolr flunk; 1 ordered tho 71st
regiment to go forward to their support,
whiob, in moving to tho point indicated, woe
o.ipoBud to a bonvy fito from tho enemy. I
regret to stale thai Mnjor Conklinoftbe

worthy of older soldiers. The three re-
maining regiments of Gen. Crulfs l>ri<'(ide
arrived just in timo whou our troops were in
full retreat and tbe rout bad heoonio gener-
al, tbe EigblBonth Kentucky being in ad-
vance, under command of Col. Warner.
This regiment was immediately deployed
into line, nud made a desperate eflbrc to
check (be advancing enemy aud contended
wilh him, single banded and aloue. for twen-
ty minutes, when, alter a severe loss, (boy
were compelled to give way before over-
whelming numbers- Tbe Twelfth and Six-
ty-siitb Indiana regiments, not having arriv-
ed in time to take part in tbe first batlla, re-
tired in good order and wore formed in lino
of battle on a high position near Rodgera-
ville, about a mile in tho rear of tho first
battlefield. Taking these two regiments as
a nucleus. I rallied the remainder of the di-
vision, but saw nt once that it would not do

10 fight upon that ground. I deployed tho
cavalry of Cols. Slutcalfe and Mundy upon
(be high ground in front of the infantry,
placed one piece of arlllJery in Ihe road,
directing tbe fire toward tbe enemy, wbo
were forming lino of battle near Rodger's
bouse. I then gave orders lo tbe infantry
to face by the rear rank, and move to the
rear iu line of battle, Thoy moved in this
inuauer about threo quarters of a mile,
halted and about-faced. I bad now arrived
on tbe ground whioh I had occupied in the
skirmish with (be enomy tbo ovouing be-
fore, nnd I hero ordered General Cruft lo
move off wi(b bis brigade lo tbe tight and
take position on elevated ground, putting
two regiments in the woods on tbe extreme
right, and two behind Ihe fence, fronting a
field of corn, and to throw sfcitmiahers for-
ward into tbe cornfield and woods. The
first brigade I formed behind fences on the
left of the road. The artillery waa placed
on tho right and left, on the same ground
occuDied the previous afternoon, f now
signaled the cavalry and artillery whioh
had been left on tho ridge in front, and
which, until now, bad held the euemy in
cbeok, nnd they retired rapidly and took
their proper posilion in the new Hue, 7he
enemy noic began adeancinn in tiTtat force,
Ihrough t/ie open fields, in line of batlie, and
tchile Uiey were ihut advanctjig. c courier
rode upsn Ihe Jleld and dedvered lo me your
imllen order, dated at Lexington, Auguil
30, direeling me to retire by iht Lannatter
road if ihe enemy should advance in /orce.

than fine minutes from the lime I r'.seirtd
youT order Oie buttle raged wilh great fierce-
nets alang v\y lehole line. The enemy's
right soon gave way under the fire from the
artillery on the left, and his whole atten-
tion was Chen turned to our right, upon
wbicb a vigorous aaaault was made by
infantry advancing through the woods and
opon fields. Tbey were mot iu the most
gallanl manner by General Cruft's brigade.
The l^Ih Indiona aud letb Kenlucky regi-
ments being placed iu tho woods contended
with fearful odds, bul repulsed the rebels
several diflerent times. At this }-oint the
gallant Colonel Warner, of the I fib Ken-
tucky, was dangerously wouudej. Tbe
G6Cb Indiana and the !^5th Ohio rMgiments
held tbeir positions and drove the enomy
back a abort distance. The euemy soon
rallied nnd again attacked our right wing,
wbioh, after a terrific engogemi-at, lasting
over one hour, was compelled to fuil back,
and retreated In confusion.

I was then forced to order tbe left wing
to fall back, which tbey did iu tolerably
good order, the enemy 0 row ding cluse upon
them. On arriving at my camp 1 made an-
other eflorl to rally and re-form the troops.
and had only partly aucceeded nb''u I beard
tbat you wore upon Iho field. I iit once re-
ported to you for orders. You informed
me that we would make a staud neat tbe
town and cemetery. I directed the troops
already formed in my camp to move to the
place specified. On arriving upon the
ground, under your direction, the men
were formed iu line of battle, about two
thousand five hundred strong, and after oou-
(undlug widi an unequal and overpowering
force of tho enemy for about thirty miuuCea,
our whole Hue wiis broken nnd repulsed,
and Ibo men retired iu the gtoalesl confu-
sion. I regret to say tbat in this battle Col.
Link, of (he Tnelflli Indiana, was danger-
ously wounded, and Col. McMillan ot the
Ninuty-fiflb Obio, was shot in tbe baud-
After pnssiug thtDuahHichmund, by your
permisaion I organized a rear guard ot the
scatloied men of most oil regiments thnt
had been iu tho several battles, nnd took
command myself, for tho purpose of oover-
iug our rear ou tbu retreat. The rear
guard bobuvcd well, keeping back the ene-
my's advance until wo bad retreated two
miles on tho turnpiko road to Leiington,
when tho Boattercd troops in front came to
a halt. I left tbe rear guard in charge of
Major Morris of tbe Sixty-sixth Indiana,
and pressed forward myself lo ascertain the
cause of the bait. On arriving iu ftcnt I
found a small squad of the rebel cavalry
foimod in tbo road. I attempted to form an
ndrauce guard, but owing (0 the fact that
(lie troops bad been defeated iu three ca-
gacomen(8 Ibey were so porfecdy dcniorall-
:;ed thai I tuund it Impassible to tally more
Ibau a hundred men. This small guard
cleared Ibo road in a few niomouts, nndcon-
tlnuod Bteadily (0 advance, driving tbo rob^
els from three different alaud-poluto. Af-
ter poasing a lltdo over four mllns from

Itiobmond. we diacoverei tbe enemy in
lenvy fort e, concealed in a cornfield on the
■j-ft side of tbe road. In attemptini: to
Irive them, my little band was entirely cut
to pieces, having seventeen killed and twen-
ly.fivo wounded. Lieut- Colonel Wolfo
'ell at this point while oheerioc forward tho
men. Lieut. Osbom, my aid de-camp, was
severely wounded. Lieut. Kercheval. O
M. 5r,th Indiana Volunteers, received a
SBvore wound ia tbe left arm whioh render-
ed amputation nncesaary. Thp enemy kill-
ed and crippled a large number of horsea

iiere which entirely blocked up the mad.

Il being uaw about seven o'olook in tbo
evening, and having no men to make any
turlhor resistance wilh, I nttemploil to make
my escape, aooompamVd l,y Col. Lucas.
Captaiii tJaifd, and several olber oflicer^.
w » toQo through tho enemy's lines and pro"
oeeded m a westerly direction for half n
mile, when wo come upon a sijuadton of tbe
enemy s cavalry, who commanded us to bait
and lit. tho same timo tired upon ut. Mv
borae was kijied and fell upon me injuring
nie severely in tho bteasl, and a short lima
aflerivnrd I wna arrostod by the enemy's
cavalry and made a prisoner.

r cannot say with certainty the extent of
oor loss lu killed, wounded and ptisouers,
not having received any report from tbo
officers who commanded on the fiold except
Col. Sloban of (be 55th Indiana, I do not
think, after nn examination of tho field,
that our loss will exceed two hundred in
killed, seven hundred wounded, and two
thousand prisoners. I uodersland the en-
omy took quite a number of tbe men of my
command prisoners after they had escaped
as far us Lexington.

Tbe enemy informed me that tbey hod
only captured four of our wagons and
teams, nine pieces of artillery, and o small
amount of oimp equipagu.

I deem it proper here (o atate (bat the
troops which I found at Richmond when I
arrived there, three days before (be battle,
bad only been in service from tenlo twenty
days. Some of the togimeula never had
bed a battalion drill and knew not what a
line of battle was. Tbey were undisciplined,
ine.iperlenccd, and had never been taught in
the manual of arms. Tbe artillery wbioh
I bad waa composed of men of different reg-
iments— some of infantry and a few nrtfl-
lerymeu— who bad been separated from their
commands at Cumberland Gap. They had
been sent from Lexington without calsaona
or a proper supply of ammunition, being
quite deKoieut in fuses and friction primers.
The ammunition of some of tbe pieces
was entirely spent in (he first engagement
of the morniiig, itud tbe ammunition of all
bad been quite oi^hansted at the close of the
tbe last battle in the evening.

Tuking into consideration tbe rawness of
our troops, there has been no battle during
tbe war in which more bravery waa dis-
played by officers nnd men, with few ex-
ceptions, than there in the four battles near
Richmoud.

I have neglected to state, in the proper
place, tbat I was joined, in tho second en-
gagement, by a portion ol tbe ■'Jd Kon-
tuoky infantry, who had passed from Geo.
Morgan's command, at the Cumberland
Gap, with some Government boraes. These
men dismounted, hitched their horses, and
did eieelleut service. I do not know tbe
JK of any ol the accomplished officers
commanded this detacbment, or I sbonld
gladly give them a place in this report.
I cannot close my report without refer-
ee, especially, to tbe gallant oota of some
ot tho officers which came directly under
my own observation. Captain R. C. Kiao,
my Assistant Adjutant-(ieueral; Captain
Biddle, United States army ; Lieutenant
Osborne of the ."t.iih Indiana ; Colonel Met-
calfe ; air. Wm. Goodloe, of LeiingtoD,
Kentucky ; Mr. Bennett, of Madison county; .
and one or two other citizens, whose naiaea
I do not remember, who composed my staS
on the day of the battles, wbo are entiUod
to great credit for the services which they
rendered me, and for the prompt manner in
which tbey discbatged their duty, regardlesa
of personal danger. I am particularly un-
der obligations (0 CBp(ain Biddle, for val-
uable suggestions in relation to the posting
and arranging of tho artillory.

I am under great obligations to the gal-
lant Lieut, Wickliffo Cooper, Dr. Irwin,
Captains Baldwin, Staoy and Kendriok, of
your staff, some of whom had tmveled

The enemy say they had about 12,000 in-
fantry, '1,000 calvary, and 15 pieces of ar-
tillery, who were all veteran troops, most of
them having been in the army since tbo
commencement of the war. Their loss in
killed was about 250, and in wounded not
rer 500, Tbe Union troops did not exceed
i500, and there were not engaged at any

That is, indeed, ch,M?ring news. For
years post, tbo Democracy of tho Roserie
bos not been in such good cheor und so de-
termined OQ stDoding by the old and true
banner of their country. Let our friends
throughout the State take courage. Let
them not leave t good work undono — let
them remember Ibat u united and dnur-
minud action wan never of so great impnr-
tonce antl never stood a better cbaneo »f
success.

If the Ilsserve 'n thus lit up with onthu-
Binstic Democracy, what nught we not lu
eipectfrom other parts of IheStato ! Tako
courage, friends— "do not stand upon tbo
r of jour goioR," but go. Everywheie
the Democratio meetings are largo — never
more so — acarcely ever &» numerous wtro
our local and negbborho'>d meetings aa now,
whilu it is notorious ihot tho Kopublionne
oan gain no respt-otublo bearing any whore,
BO far 09 regards number,", thot Wft have
beard of.

Tbo truth is. tbo Democrats, by holding
their Convention early, hud thu State half
won before thoRopublioaus j(Ol their elokly
concern in rootaon.

Yearn hence, when men look coolly and
solemnly at their fate, the historian will be
astonished on e:iamlning the volumes of
Tub Crisis, that its advice was not taken,
end still more astonished that the insanity
of tha times wero such as to call it a dan-
gerous or disloyal paper. It pointed out
early nnd persistently how to avoid the
greater portion of our snd misfortunes, and
■■ agninsl fearful odds " we continued on in
tho oven tenor of oa: way, cheered by out
friends and sastoined by the good and intel-
ligent of tholand. whoso minds hud not been
■upted or misled by tho madnesa of the

was n straight and narrow path to fol-
—we often trembled on tbe verge of des-
pair, that our patronage, on which we alone
ilied for support, would not be egua! to
keofLng iiflttUoat. Wo steed cloao by our
oterprise — seldom left our ofEce— curtailed
very possible eiponso — lived on tho snvod
pennies, nnd restricted every want, resolved
to pass theslraightB and unfurl our llag in the
open flca^t. Every subscriber, from aqnar-
a nholoycar, as they dropped ia from
r from that direction, was an angel's
visit, and appreciated as such.

It is a great mistake to sappose that tho
inclosure of " a dollar '" is a small affair, —
Ahundred minds resolving at ono time, each
to send a dollar, is a windfall to an editor
who looks only to that means of support. —
Tho largest streams, beating on their bosoms
great ships ol war or of commerce, are
made up from 'he accumulation of small
rivulets trickling through high gross or
slowly finding their way through .
pebblea to tbo ■■ Father of Watere,"
they are the " source and power."

The bustling banker wbn Ihroi
his golden oaglo ii not so pleasing i, sight
to tbe eye, which sees all things,
thousand widows who give, each one their
mitf. We often wished our aabsor
could fully know the "fearful odds
were fighting against, in more senses than
one, for wo know well their anxiety and
proyers for our sucoosh, bat there is no
Genoralfitfor command who sends Dis-
patches to the enemy that lU' is about out of

There is, boivover, u wonderful change it
public opinion and feeling — a mighty up-
heaving of tho jiublio heart. The ■' fearful

with wounded soldiers, and the groves of i";

cOQid not myself at first beliovo that such atroci-
tie< could have bo*B ptatriced by men proleuing
lo b* Chriitinns, naj, by persons in Iho higbeet
dvil Bfld military Btotions."

Wby this mowkisli " Oiabeiiof ?" Vfas it
mete floutisli of oratory to capture men. ot
nae Ibe idea that auoh things wore too hor-
ribly improbable to bo true? And wby not
trno 7 Are (he government onthoriliea South
so much better thsn outu. that such con-
daot staggerea the belief of bo " fine an
oiagcatleman" as Edwabd Everett ?

Mf . EVERETT'S voice, at the time, almost
MSChed Fort Warren, where men just as
■'loyol- u himself, and aa innocent of any
crime, lay inoareerated for luspMtil poliU-
eaJ opinions, not harmonizing with the
i that be" at Wnshingti

who stood under his

treaibliDg for fnor a nord might paas from
their lips not in harmony Tvith Boston
liment; And yet Mr. Everett coolly
talked about tho want of liberality of tole-
ration in tho heart of the rebellions portion
of the people.

There is a difference in a '■ geen old age,
and being green in old age. The divine
oommaad i3 to " purify thyself before
bnking others for impurity."
lo win back the South, the
method for us to adopt, was to follow tbeii
most odious practices, and beat them at il,
loo." Tho people aronsed to the highest
pitch of indignation at these illegal an^
icandalous unesls, it was found necessary
to take the back course, releese those
confinement, and order a enspension of tho
tyrant rule. We hope Mr. EVERETT will
turn his attention to so fioo a field for decla-
mation.

The State ol Public Feeling.
Wo know nothing which speaks more
strongly oE the oitraordinary state of the
public feeling than the following communi-
cation, which no publish from one who has
aeon no little public serrice in the councils
af the country. Il abows very plainly

Cut up this salary business by tho roots,

0 desires tho n-storation of the UnioL
fas, and the aupromacy of the Const!
a, with the rights of each and every Stale
impaired, should support Democ ratio
principles, are obvious to overy tbinkiug

Some of the principal reasons are, that
the only National party in esistence— ll
only party that has, for a number of year
kept step to the mu^ic of the Union— U
only parly, to-day, that stands on broad
constitutional ground ; and let me add, the
only party that dusires the restoration ofi
political fabric, the best the sun ever ahed
its brilliant rays upon. No mailer ho
much others may prate about their devotit
to tho Union, the Democracy is the ouly
Union party that eiists; all olhers
merely conditional Union, AbotiliBnisii.

We have a written Coastitutiou, defiuing
tho powers of the several branches of
■emment, and protecting u9 in the e:
of all our inherent rights— thoio inesti-
mable blessings which every true American
holds dear. Amoagthose rights are.
tho liberty of speech and tho freedom of the
a party in power puts a
pad-look on the one and suppresses the
other, it is taking a most important step to-
oahing out a great und vital prin-
ciple of self- government- that of a free and
independent people— ■' the rightful masters"
—criticizing the action of their rulers.—

The voioB of the people and humanity say
close it up spoodily- There are but tn
ways to do il> viz : To let the South go (
compel their submission. If the indepei
donee of the South is acknowledged, or
they succeed by revolution, then our iioubli
are hut just begun. For I do know that Ibo
great West and North West will not. for
one week, agree lo live under the rule and
contributions which ara iu store for us by
the East, with her high tariffs, esccssive
railroad fare, and her avowed free negro
equality dootrinee. When 1 look into the
future, and dee, as I think I do, the Inevita-
ble result of any separation of this govern
mcnt, it fleems to me mora bumano und bet-
ter to compel ibis rebellion lo ceasu.

The next Inquiry is, how is ibis lobe done!
1 an-itTtr. it is to he uccumplishod only iu

one who i* a rebul ; lake every able bodied
free nogru, both of the freo and slave StotoB,
and ovary slave of n rebel, and compel them
;o work iu camp or elfiowhere, as necessity
may requiry-

Lot no able bodiitd man be exempt, from
the President down lo tho beggar ; lot all
sabrles, nhothor civil ur uilltlary, oejsw
until the rebellion is crushed. Until that is
done we have no need for a Congress ; in-
deed, we would bo much belter without
them except as they bud arms ia Iheir bonds
iind wi-ro lorced to fight in this war, which
Ihoy have largely aided iu bringing nbout
ondincouUnuiag; cutoff the salary of every
officer of tho army ond navy, put thorn on
the pay of the common soldier and sailor ;
and by eo doing you irill cut off ten thous-
and reasons and apcoial pleadings for ox-
tending the war. Thoia is no Gense or jus-
tice in paying officers of the army, in times
like these, from 9S0 to ISDO per monib, ooi

It is a well known fact that the Democrat-
ic party, with its principles based on the
Constitution and the rights of man, hassuc-
cessfolly carried on oaf goTornmonl almost
uninterruptedly for nearly three quartors of
a century ; but when a sectional party — a
party that attempts to ignore tho rights of
fifteen sovereign States — rises to power, we
find that onr prosperity is gone — all that
ever made us a great and free people, are
swept away: free apeech and a free press,
tho bulwarks of liberty, ore ruthlessly with-
held from us by the party in power; no
aater outrage can bo inflicted on a people
it claim to oe free.

What aano man would have eiven credit
... the idea, for the moil limited period uf
time, that thai pure, that immaculate " Re-
publican " party — the party that were go -
"ng to bring the Government back to what
it was in the d&ya of Washington and Jef-
ferson— that party nht-io prime objects were
retrenchment and reform, would have thrust

ts hands, without romorso of coi
science, iatf> our national treasury, and si
money in a few abort mouiba thi
irry on our Government in good
working order for uiore than a whole year 1
Have not tho people suffered enough ol-
ready by the ignorance and misrule of tho
'■Republican" party- a party Ibat never
should have had an eiisteoco for a single
hour— to abandon the rotlenhulk while their
morals are uncorrupled 1

Ourrigbta as freemen have buen disre-

under foot with as little regard as though it
were a bit of wosto paper — "a covenant

This has been done by the party in power —
by tho party under the euphonic name of

American. Freemen can you cousislently

suppose they conclude that the present set
of leaches (if continued In office, ) will suok
tho Treasury dry, and leave nothing for the
hord of Republican suckers. Tho
Editor of the Cindnnaii Timtt, in his paper
of the Sth inst., after denouncing the Ad-
ministration for corruption and inefficiency,
goes on to say '■ xvo mu-!t have reliable
atriotic men — men who can sacri-
fice personal interests for tho country, to
guide tho hehii of Slate. The state of the
uiitry demands the change, and the soon-
it is accomplished Ihe bettor foe ih^ Re-
public.''

I consider the right kind of talk,
a at this Into day will, be pondered
riously by every Black Republican
who may see the Tinits. Thoy beg'

their eyes to the awful reality, that
unless wo have a change of Rulers, and that
speedily, the pickings and stenlinss will be
oil gone. The same Editor says, " No
change con be for tho worse. It is scarcely
possible for the President to select a more
cabinet than the present one. and
any change will be a relief,'" I fully coti-
ith the Editor, and firmly believe that
tho salvation of the country depends on a
change of Rulers, a Domooratio instead of a
Republican Administration. But I cannot
agree with the Timei when he saya,
same Editorial, " Tho nestCongress ahouid
be composed, not of old dilapidated poll'
ticons. but of modest, earneat. intelleotual
men, fresh from the people, thoroughly im-
bued with the self- sacrificing spirit which
animates the loyalty of the States." "
my own part, I think the old politici

When did the Demoorats of tho North
West ever pray for a dissolution of the
Union ? Andeveu those of tho South would
never have called for a dissolution of the
Union if their Stale rights had been respect-
ed— if the infidel, fanatical Abolitionists
and Republicaus of the North had allowed
them what was guaranteed to them by thi
CoDslitulioa and laws of the United States
Did not IheBepubUcansof Massacbuselta
demand a dissolution of the Union soaif

cans of the State of Ohio petiUon the Leg-
islature to ask for a dissolution of the
Union some few y

oral States, when the Republicans had lh«
majority, paas laws nullifying the acts of
Congress on tho fugitive slave law f Tbo
Editor ot the Times seems greatly dis-
tressed, becaoso in this, and some other
States, the old party loaders have been noui-
inated for Congress. Ho says. "This is
equally true with respect lo the Union oud
Ueniocratio orgaoisalions. In this Stale
aud Indiaua, the Democrscy debases itself
by Iho nomination of such men aa Vallan-
■- ■ aod Voorhos, and the Union parly
IDS the Republican) submits to the
nomination of such demagogues aa Julian
and Ashley." Please mark the distinction
—the BeinO'^Tacy debases ilseif—lktRtpuh-
Ikan parl'j submils. I think the Editor of
the IHmes overlooked Thaddeua Slovens,
of Pennsylvania -. tbo Republicans of that
State debased themselves by putting forward
again, that notorious old Abolitionist of
tape iconii memory, who would rather see
Ihe United States sink in the depths of tho
a, than to see the negro kept wher-- God
Imighty intended him.
In Pennsylvania and several other
Iho Republloans are more honest than thoy
are in Ohio— they call thing* by their right
nnnjps — when Ihoy have Conventions aud
nominations, they call tliom Republican,
aud not Union Conventions, they nominate
lUoir meu as Republicans— and uo pretou-
siDns about Unionists. Aud old honest
Abe is very careful not to appoint a single
man trom the Democratic ranks for auy
office, high or low, lucrative or otherwise;
among all Ihe Asaessora and Collectors,
lately appointed, you don't find one
crat; no I not' Tho Repablioans are very
anxious to have tbo Democrats vote their
ticket ; and very careful that the offices
' with themselves. They quote
Douglas on all uccasioua. as
flaying that in this war there is bat two par-
the friends of the Union aud tho

and they ore oilremely tuiiioua

that all olhor parties should join with them
in electing the aamo old Coona who have
robbed and plundered the Government mora
ighteeu months than all tbo robberies
were wade by the Domoorata in eighty
years '. '. ' Now, if Stephen A. Douglas wus
eet In using tho language above, ho did
intend lo hold out the idea that De-
mocracy aud Republicanism were playuU
not a bit of it. No man knew batter
Mr- Doogloa, that the Democrats wore
July true Union party. Never, ainoo
tho United Statc-i were orgoniied, can yuu
find the Democracy arrayed against Iho
Union. They bavo alwoys been for tho
Union and the Ciinttitation. But the same
S. A. Douglas know very well that (tie Re-
publicans, on several occasions, opposed
tbo Union ; and when a foreign foe luvadod

Bad Treiiiniciitol a Soldier.

Paymasters, and the " red tape " fralei
nity ganorally. have a way of doing things
that, to most people, seems a little queer.
Thus. McFnrhind, a resident of this place,
who enlisted In Company E, -'^drA Ohio Reg-
iment, was. aa our readers are aware, sn-
verolv wounded in the leg, at tho battle of
Sbilu'h. Ho was brought home in a dauger-
ous condition, aud for. weeks his life was
despaired of- It has only been within the
last few weeks that be baa been able to move
about upon crutches. In accordance with
tho order of Gov, Tod, directing soldiers to
report in person ot the camps, or. in case of
disability to do so, procure a aurgeon's oer
fioale to that effect, he forworded a cortifi-
oote from Dr. Shackleford, duly certified to
by a Judicial officer. Having drawn but
§42 in clothing, aud no money, since ho en-
tered Ihe service, he applied to Paymaster
Whitney, of Cincinnati, for his pay. To
his latter ho rooelved the following rather
forcible reply :

having joined your regiuieni by August
Jlih, you are, i a law, a Joierter, oad will prob-
ably never receive aoy pay again ; but. at all
events, you cannot la paid uutil after y^" '■■'■■
ur regiment.

This was a flue answer lo give a soldier
who had aaoriticed his health aud atrenglh
and boon crippled for life in the sorvico of
his country. This Paymaster pronounoes
McForlnnd a deserter bocauao ho did uol
join his rogimont by tho 11th ull., at which
time ha was prostroie upon Lis bod, scarcely
oblo to move, from tho effects of a wound
received upon the battle fi..-!d. His ouly
fault is in permitting himself to be wounded,
This presents a fine prospect to a eoldiov
going into tho batlle- He knot

they are as well token cnri' of by the fanner In-

oltowed full liberty during the day, but ore quar-
tered at niiihtT that only oce half-breed, L, La-

bod be not resisted. The other half breeds are
kept aa pn'ienerG. although unguarded. It is an-
nounced to them that il tbey attempt to escape,
they and their families will befailled. They bare
cisny instances been loroed to participate in
a fights that have occurred, under penalty of
beioc killed. They saj many of the Sioux, in-
deedall of tbe lower bands, were ia fsvor ol giv-
ing up Ibe '.vhite prisonart, but the upper Induins

Tu-day I aend back the bearer of the truce

Leiington, Peiry county, one day

rioks. Esq., tb« Recorder of the county,
resigDed his uf&co and enlUted aa a prirate
Hnldieriuthe fiOth regiroeot. One day last
week several eompouies and Eijuntls of sol-
diers were to leave New LesingtoD for
Camp Circlevlllc, nnil aa is usual on Bucb
occasions, speeches were made. In the
Tse of hani»a events, Mr. Henricksjivho
elected as n Kepublican, and bad beeo
counted as a loodinc man in tbo party, got
the train and commenced making a
speech. Had the rebels opened upon the
town with a dcEon batteries, the aurpti.io of
the people could not hare been greater that
it was upon bearinc tie speech. Mr, Hen-
ricks denounced the last Congress as the
iorrupt combination ever known, tbat
hod worked irrepairable injury to tbe cause
of iLo Union. Ho fully and entirely ro-
■unced the Hepublicaa party, and closed
by saying that every patriot would and
■ ' ■ for Hon. W. E. Finck for Con-

gress. The wrath of the Abolitionists-
stay-at-home abolitionists, knew no bounds.
They threatened fc» egg Mr. Heaticks, but
soon learned that it would bo a dangerous
undertaking, as Captain Latnpton'a compa-
ny from Tbem tawnehip was on board tbe
train, every one of wbicb was Democrats
except three, and they were conaervalive
Sepublicans. Rumor eaysthata dispatch
was sent to Cirolaville to have the speaker
nrtested for " treasonable language '" At
tbe close of the speech some one proposed
threo cheers for George Henrickg, aad three
heartier cheers were never heard. —
e Abolitionists were dumbfounded, and
'ed like mad men. Good for Henricks;
showed bis patriotism by resigning bis
office and enttsling as a private, and he cov-
ered himself with glory by denouncing ebo-

such a force, it would be necessary to see
them up in array. A line marching in c
single file, allowing tivo feet for each sol-

of thirty miles per day, would occupy
ly two weeks in passing a given point;
marching in aectiona of four, with the nec-
essary room for baggage trains and cavalry,
at the rate of thirty miles per day, they
would eitend one hundred and fifty mitea ;
and the head of the column leaving a given
point Monday morning, the rear guard would
not reach tbe same point til! Friday night.

PROSPECTUS

OF

THE CRISIS

SecoDd Volume — Sec«Dd Hair Vear.

Five uumbora more of The Citisi.s will close
the fitft half year of the Second Volume,
cannot End words strong enoagb to express
gratitude to our friends who have itood by u
faithfully in the trials through ivbich we have
passed. From the time we if sued the first num
ber of our paper until thu present hour, there
has never passed a day tbat we did not receive
Mime evidence of the appreciatioa of our tabors.
During the lost six months our Eubscriplion bos
more than doubled, and we can now boost of the
largest edition of ony weekly Engliiii paper
Ihiacityi nnd oa large ai some of Ihem, includ-
ing their Doilies and Weekliee.

This is the more gratifying as we are compell-
ed to ruu our paper on its subscription alone
and aa lucb it was of coune nu experiment.
The rxpcrimmt has turned out an entite success,
and Tke Cmsis is n permanent fixture. We de-
vole onr whole time to getting it up. so as to
make it fully worth the prict> sve cborge forlL-
It ia nbolly independent nnd untrammeled by
any inleccsls or cliques outside of, or inside of,
tbe great Democratic lamily of the counti-y, lo
wboie success it is devoted.

Believing as we do. that the country can only
ba restored, and a constitutional government
maintained in its purity by and tbrongh the suc-
cess of Democratic men and Democratic meaa-
■a conscientiously laboring for tbe pre-
il both— nut merely in name but in
and priiciple. A o^re name ia noth-
ing— the frait is everything. Any political ospi-
may coll himself a Democrat, a patriot, a
frieod of the Conatibition, of the Union, ol Lib-
erty, yet he may not underataud Ibe true
which all these rest, ur he may do it
Irom mere design to get votes, and abandon all
when entruiled with power or office.

We must tell the I'cc by tbe Jruii it bears.
If the fruit is worthless the tree is but an
ocumbrance to the ground, and the good hus-
bandman will cut it down and cost it out, —

The Indian TnouBLBS. — During thr-
psst week this whole country hns been in
Iho wildest state uf oscitement. Tbe 0--
onsive inasaacres in Minnesola. reachint
.Imost to Spirit Lake, in Iowa, tha details
if wbioh ere rovoltinR and brutal beyond
xpression, bad spread alarm among all the
border settlements. Settlements that wet<-
leakaad unable tu protect themselves, Iq.
mediately left thoir homes, property, crop!
—everything, and repaired to places of
safety. Bunds of Sautees invaded lono,
stealing and pluudering. They mado tbeii
appearance in Dakota Territory, harrossed
the settlers und murdered two men at Siotu
Ffilla. Of course, these things increased
the alarm nnd made the people seusitivo to
all kinds of startling rumors. A general
Indian outbreak was apprehended, and fears
that the Vunkton.) would rise begaa to bi-
entertained. If they fihould join in au at-
tack upon tho Whites there would be no
safety in Dakota, su that it only uecdeda
emingly truthful rumor that they hadtisen
create a panic among tbe settlers. That
moc found circulation on Saturdsj. A
soldi:- v.) of the Dakota Cavalry, we are
informed, galloped through the Territory,
calling Uf on tbe settlers to leave everything
and flee tor their lives — that large bodies of
Indians were upon tbem, uiossacreing and
burning all iu their path. The people wtif
already excited and this mads them frantic.
All who could, immediately left. Saturday
evening, night and Suuday forenoon, there
was a continuous train of wagons from Da-
beta into Sioui City. In many ca^es lb-
women and childron were bare headed, ban<
footed, poorly clad, and almost destitute of
provisions, sbowing tbe eKtramo hurry in
wbioh tbey hud [o(t. Many did not stop
here hut kept on tbeir way South. Alt but
tbe most alarming stories to relate of In-
diana wbioh they bad seen — burning houses, '
towns destroyed, &:e. Saturday evening
a messenger arrived here bringing lbs seem-
ingly reliable intelligunoo thut thu Yank-
tuus had risen and great danger was immi-
nent, it is easier to imagine Ibnn dosctibi^
tho escltemuut that suoh a state of things
would ueoessiirily produce on the exposed
frontier. Happily the immediate dongfr
was more imaginary than real, and many
of the exciting rumors wore without any
suSiclent foundation. Still all tbe sellleri
upon the frontier have become intensely ei-
oited and olarmed. They have left Ihiir
homes, and property, and crops unbarv«it-
od. Nor will they return in very annj
coses unless ihoy are asBUrod oE Esfrtf
from mnraudiug IndiauB. It ia, to say the
least, very annoying and discouraging for
farmers to have, each your, somu of
r botseaorcattlustolon or killed. What
theu should be dune? Our settlers hare
undoubtud right to protection, and yet
station r>oldi^ra at each settlement is not
tho best or oheapost wuy of affording pro-
tection. It is time that Ibo Gcvemim^nt

the effeot upon tho Sluto of Maine is remote

Ed, Crisis ; — To-day tbo greatest polilij
il meeting held in tbe Miami Valley einoe
le^O. was held .it UowlusvlUe, midway be-
tween Springfield and Urbana. To esti-
mate the vast numbers present would be nn
impossibility- I write tbe truth, when 1
say that tho vast crowd was variously esti-
mated at from hfteen to twenty thousand
people. I have t^een many largo gatherings
this vallej-, when Ihe people assembled
<re addressed from three and four difi'er-
ent stands, but this, meeting ia eaid to hare
ded in numbers any political gathering
witnessed by tbo oldest inhabitants.
It shows tbo groat, deep interest tho people
feel in tho itll absorbing question so recently
and uneipeotedly thrust upon tho country
by the President since he baa so disgrace-
fully hnmbled himself before tbo black
boal of Abolition.

At 10 o'clock in tho forenoon the meeting
was organiued by appointing W. D. Hill,
Mayor of the oity of Springfield, as Presi-
vho. in a few pointed remarks, called
it assemblage to order, and introduced
Luther Smith, Esq., of Logan County, who
proceeded to deliver an address which would
do credit to tho best orators in the country.
Aa tho gray haired old veteran commeuled
tho greatness und aloty of the Itepublio
its former days, and elegantly portrayed
I course which had produced its ruin,
tears could bo seen tripplingdown tho checks
of many aged compeers. Mr. Smith was
interrupted overy few minutes by tho arri-
val of delegations headed by hands of music
ith colors^ying, allapproprialoly inscrihod
and decorated. At U o'clock, Cok, Con-
verso and MoGaffey arrived with a dclega
lion ol about two thousand Ironi Springfield,
headed by Craft's Ilrais Band. They were
received with deafening cheers by tbe mul-
titude. McGalTuy then took the stand, and
proceeded to deliver an address to tho lie-
publicans pro^enl, hia former politioal aaao-
ciatea, Ue bed spoken nearly an hour,
making a most splendid efiort, when Frank
McKioney, from Piqua, camn down
bead of another muss meeting from Obqm-
paigu County. Hero tbe eioitcmcnt be-
came intense. There were ten acres of peo-
ple, crowded together, men. women and chil-
dren, bands of niusio in every direction
playing, hundreds of wagons with banners
unfurled to the breeze, with full deli
ahouting at the top of their vuices,
of handkerchiefs by tho ladies, old men
ihedding teura in ecslaciea of joy. at this
■nan ife station of deliverance from Abolition
despotism, made one grand scene, which
boggors dosoiiptiou. Speaking was im-
possible. The people were wLd with ex-
citement. After much ditticulty tho Freai-
dcut of tho mooting ptkrtially Hucceedod in
restoring ordoi, when dinner was announced.
Tho crowd then repaired to ono eido of the
grove, whore a fiblo ouc thousand feet in
length was literally loaded down with
boons, mutton, plga, fouls and indeed ovory
thing tho country could nllbrd. Wbcu wu
reflect that Capt. S. H. Bowlus was ono of
'' men to aupeiiutcod the getting up of Ibis
ler wo fihould not be surpnaed at tho
ipleteneas of tho management and Iho
bountiful supply. Though dinner Lad only
b>!CD supplied for leu thousand persona, I
liellevo there woe plenty for oil tho ladies
who wore firal served- At bnuio'oloolc tho
crowd was ogaiu called to order and ' Mr.
Coi was iulroducod. Jt is unucceBaory
to follow him through that speech of two
hours and a half. It Is snQiciont lo toy lltat
Sam Cox was tho epeaker. Novcr did ii uiuaa
melting liaten (o a epcaher with deeper In-
terest. Tho pocplo crowded around atiind-
ing on lip-lou, at n great distance from tbi'
stand euger to oaluli ..very word that fell
from the speakct'n lips. Mr. Cox waa fol-
lowed by Mr, MoKluuey, Demoorotiooandi-
datd for Congress in the 4tb District, anil
Hon. Geo. L, Convorao of Columbus, both
of wboui made most telling specofaea. Tbo
mooting disbanded at baH' pnat fivo iu tho
iiflcrnoon, amid cheers for the Union, Cos
and UcKinnoy. Uia to bo rogretted thnt
two rnuru stands wcro not erected, ea many
could uol gel ncur enough tho spookor to
hear. Tho only apology foe tlils is that the
meeling far oiooedcd iu numbers tho ci-
poclntiuna of any one. Its uffeot in this
Uifllrlot and In Champaign County cannot
bo inaigoifioaot. 1 hazard nothing in say-
ing that no Huch mooting has boon hold in

WAsmNOTON, Wedneiday, Sepl. ^3, iaG2.
The aerenada in honor of the Emancipa-
un Proclamation to-night called out a large
and rnthuaiastio throng, in which shoulder
straps wore not unrepresented. Nobody
expected a long speccii from tho President.
""'' so no ono was disappoiutod with the
Ily of his fen- romarka, which were re-
ized »a vory much to Ihe point, He
hud issued the Pruolaniation with a full
knowledge of what he was doing, and ho
would atand by it. Tho officera and sol-
diers engaged iu tbo late battles uf Virginia
fought them btuvely and skilfully, and pro-
posed three cheers for them, one and all.
Tbe speech was as follows :

S. HuLoniNS: ATy J?<:or Sir— I havo
at lenglb been forced to the conolusiou that
you uoert uot eippot tho role'iso <if the
Iowa prisoners, now oooGucd iu tho Old
Capitol prison In Ibis city, until bfior the
Utb of neit month. I have mod every ex-
Dttionin my powcrlthot I thought would
lend lo oaueo their discharge, bot all with-
out effect.

Thrco weeks ago last Monday, (after iu
vaio appealing to tho AsMSlaat Secretary
of war.) I oallsd on UajorTurner, tbe Judge
AdvoCHlo of Volunteers (who, 1 learned
was the proper organ of tbo Government iu
imaltora of this nature,) to learn what
could bs dune for our Iowa fellow citizens.
Ho told mil that tho Secretary of War was
fOdingly autiuua to set at liborty oil
thosB who were imprieoued wrongfully;
hu deaiieil a military commission to In-
voBligalo all those oases ; that Buoh a oom-
misiiou could not be created until General
Uiill^^ok could Bpure (rum tbo servioa ofBoers
of (be proper rank to compose it ; that the
Socretary ImJ frequL'ntly dt'sired Geiierol
Ualleck tu dulail tilt, proper board of o6i-
Ders at tho eurlitst prnolioable moment, and
ibat if euob a boaiJ could uot bo constitu-
ted bufuro Ibo uud (if tho current meek,
10 other mode would bo contrived to dis-
pose of these oases. Having u coo6derce
that tbeBO ottsffl would be disposed of wilh-
a a wo h. I enduavoied lo toel contoat.

Ooca (uud I' think twice) duriug that
neek I culled ou the Judge Advocate, and
found him speaking doubtfully as to any-
thing being done before tho ensuing weok-
On the following Monday, nod two or three
times during this eeoond week I renewed
my calls aud found each time the prospect
of a trial seemed more and more remute,
itil finally ha flatly informed me that he
could givo no opinion when anylhiug would
bo done with these oas'.>a at all.

Tho past week boa been barren in A-(l(((/

only in records of human blood, will not be
gratified, OS things remain, up to this writ-
remartably "quiet on tho Potomac."
One or two dashes of McCleli.an'b men
across the fords between tho two nrmiea, by
which a few cannon and Honie small arms
taken from the enemy, is tbo amount
of what is reported. Even this appears to
hove been done without any loss of life on
ither side. So little reaistance was made
by tbo Confederates that it led to tho sup-
iticn that they desired to draw our forces

with McClellan's name attached, wero

Gen. BuELi. has arrived at Louisville

but our readers would wonder why. There
is e nioas of confused stuff in the papers
beyond this, but really throwing very little
light on tho sabject, as about one-half con-
tradicts tho other half directly, or oaats

commanders really are, how many men they

This is a very common phi
Democratic speakers and
North; and the Abolition or Republi
oopors, writers and speakers denounce such
language as disloyal and daiigToua,
only emaoaliug from sympBthi?.<?ra ^..u p^^^
Jeff- Davis!

If the first is illogical tho second is false.
and hence nothing is Bottled by the discus-
nion or oborgce back and forth. We admil
the langnago used by tho Democrata is not
strictly corrcol, nor is it good logic. So
far the Ropablicana havo reason to object
to it. Seoesaionism is not the cause of tbo
itai. but Ihe rjficl of Abolitionism. Aboli-
tionism produced SeceHsionistD. aad eeceas-
ioniam was the act of war not tho eaiue.
Had Abolitioaiam been defeated Secesaioi
would not have Inkeu place, and war wouli:
DBvor have occurred.

Therefore AbolilioniBm is the origin ol
this war and tho freedom of the slaves being
tho purpose of Abolitionism, it will bo satis-
fied with nothing else, and to that end it has
b«n precipitated by the same faction and ,bru«
influences wbieh originated the sectional
^onfiiot. Tho great middle mass North and
South who elood for years between the con-
tending eitremes, are tho real aofferers in
this conflict ao far, though in Iho end Ihe ex-
tremes will pay the penalty.

In our paper .)f the IDlh lost, wo gave an
account of Jill LaSE's negro regimonis in
SansuB, and tho arrest of ichiU men, who
are put under them t" guard, drill, nnd aot
03 nervanls to the uefjro oBicera. The
whole of tho atory. it seems, was not told.
At least not fully sliiled. Ono of our cor-
respoudents from Kuosas City, tbrowamore
light on the doings of these negroes.

Only think of it — these negroes ure
olothed, artni'd and fed out of the treasury
of the United Stalts. and kept in Citmp, n(
to fight for " the Conslitntion us it is an
Che Union as it wes," but In nteal borae
run "ir negroes, plunder the property i
white men. and lu drill and use as borvauts
auch whiltf men as happen to protest against
their conduot. Thi'y in fact keep a rolling
iaatiU or yrUon fur ult men whoso akins an
white, into whieh they are tumbled withnul
writ, trial or crime, ojci-pt the urim" o
opinion.

Tho ultra Abolitionists, when our trooblw

Thoy wanted to get rid of tfic elaveholdiae

some ultras turned square round sad

We find thp following in nNevi HaTen pa-
fpr about drafling in CnOQectiout :

or Ibe drafted men nbo Bhould have re-
pcirled here, txcly about 225 have appeared;
ibont 60 of lhe;o bnvo bf en discharged, and
Qtarly nil thu rest bavo got substitntee.
The fieleclmcQ have cot doon their duty in
the draft, aud nearly every town will have to
iisit s^ain. In Soutbburj not a Eiogle
man hsa appearnd out of two drafts of 20
men. In Milford, there are but JSlefl of a
draft of 56, and bot one or two of Ihoso are
ptineipaJB. In North Haven not one of tbe
sii has proved liable; and in Ibe other
t3woa, similar facts are discovered. The
lire men avoid t bo draft, nod only [base nho
think Ihay will be rejected, preacot them-
stlves to tho Surgeon.

Speculation-^ in subiilitutes bos been ex-
teniivf Ij carried on by New York sharpers,
aod naoy drflfied men bavo pcdd one anil two
hnndred dollars lo defiertera from Now York
nho wiU doaert from bore as soon as posBi-

bla objett for which iho war was origiually
waged bea proved ou oulire faituro. UniOD
by wftt is uol now within tbe range of pos-

lie is the relation of oquala, Che
; and conquered:

through amity, the other through a
■^iash of ocms ; and one eogonders sociabil-
jty, whjlo the other ongendera hate. We
do not, therefore, if we be wise, wont con-
vjueat, for it would be alike injurioaa to the
conqoerora and tho conquered. What then
^ we want ? We want tho unity of North
and South, to swell the proportions of oc
National atrength, and their relations e
-conditioned as to givp ua the benefits of
Temoneratiffe commerce. These two enda
attained, it ia hard to see how sens
con wont anything elae. But madmen roay
want blood. These end;, we think, may
now, under a judioionsmansgemeut of con-
aitions aa they now eiist, be acqoired and
aecnred in such a way as to redound alike
to the interests of both North and South.
But they wiil never be attained by war.
5Ve may deatroy the South, bum her cities,
pillaga bet homea. and mnrder her people.
but in doing ho we, and particularly wo oi
the Northweatem States, will, of necesaity,
deatroy ouraelvcs. So intimately are the
South and Weat connected, that tho de-
attuction of the one followa the destruction
of the other OS inevitable. To elucidate
this point, let us refer to a few plain atatis-
licaUacts. Bothseotions are agricultural,
and depend alike upon agricultural results.
Take, then, the agricultural eiports of tbe
nation for any given year preceding the
war. and they will show in a light which
the moat artful eophiatry cannot bowJId
the absolute dependence of one section u[
theotbor. Take Iho year ISSf, tbe year
preceding tho yont of our Ute Presidential
election, which struck down tbe amity of
Northern and Southern relatione. In that
year the ogrioultural tiporls of tho whole
nation nmouulcd. in round uumbera, to Iho
sum of SIM.OOO.OOO. Of this sum $101.-
000,000 alone were cotton, aud $21,000,000
tobacco, leaving but 318,000,000 of all
other agricultural productions. All the
Ortltun was of Southern growth, aud very
near all the lohacco. So near was tho to-
hacco all SoulLern. that by giving tho
cereals and provifions of tbe Border .Slave
States, and the rice I'f the Southern lo the
Noilhem Stales, we may, for calculation,
aaaumo that tbcie two great slaplea are
wholly Soulhero. Theao two oggreguted,

rich and ptofilable Southern
market, the Northwest would atill bo a
■ilderness ; and now. after it has grown to
grentneas sbould it lose this rioheat of its
loarkotB. it must Rteatly dimmiah m its
importance. The European market niiebi.

rope cheaper than lUoy can be furnished by
IS. out prosperity never can be reatoced
;htougb that source oE commerce.

It is thus plain that thO loss ..f tbo Soolb-
,rn uiBtket must bo tho loss «f the North-
we.st.'rn'B prosperity.

If we iibaudon the idea of raising up ti

Union sentiment in the Scutberu States, and

rely upou connueat aud subjugation, then,

were these ends nosaible, ne would be no

nearer than wo now arc to onr lostnilvau-

tages, for sbould tho Southern people be

couquorcd, there would remain iu tbom a

spirit of hatred, which, to aiy tbe least ol

sequenoea, would make them the gtow-

of their own food; and to doalroy or

ihiluto Ihem— an idea tlinl wo can

:oely pen without n shudder, at tbo very

thought of having men among ua. base

enough to eaterlniu it— would bo to destroy

thfc wholo Southern morket, for dead men

To deatroy the institution of slaverv. by
breaking the relation of alavo and master,
would be as disnatrous as annihilation, for
free negroes, unsupported by white men,
arc drones on the commercial world. Their
conception of liberty are eiomptiona f
labor, conditions which grow no cotton,
any other way produce material wei
Freed negrooa could, it is true, consume
our provisiona, but our wary mcrehaoti
will be very careful not to sell to people who
unahlo to pay.
Jho great prosperity of tbo Northwest
has grown directly out of Slave labor, and
tho folly of England and France in regard
About thirty yeara ago those two na-

Soon after these eventa, the cotton

These orealed u demand for the Soulhi
staple. But no demand could induce 1
freed negroes of the Weat Indiea to bo ox-
tensive producers- They, like tholr pro-
genitors in Africa, preferred lying down in
tho fihade. Aa a consequence, the world
became dependent on the alave -holding
States of Americo. Tbia dependence ao
increased the price of cotton, aa to induce

tbe Northwestern farmer for hia provia

Until 1840, Tonneaaee produced oioio

than Ohio. But since then cuinpori-

.,„„.. have changed, Ohio is now nmoh the

greater producer of that staple, unless the

,r has driven Tennessee buck to her for-

fr produotiona. If so. and this ohaugo

ho coromon over tbe whole South, then the

Norlhweat is the greatest sutTerer, for it is

change which bos taught the Southeru

people to r«iso their own bread, and nc

longer depend upon our ataples.

The demand, which tho demand for cot'
ton, threw on the Northnealern States for
bre.id and provisiona, sent a flood of pros-
perity over thia entire Nortwestcru country.
A rich morket waa found al home. This
caused our cities to ruiae and ourforesld
and prairies to come, aa if by magic, into
cultivation. It waa the lover of all power,
and tbe inducement of oil growth. Tbo
Getioan, the Irishmou, the Englishman, the
Scotchman, tbo Ptencbman aud tho Italian,
come to our country to catch a portion of
that golden flood which drifted through
Sonthem cotton 6elds into tho corn miJ
wheat fiolds.of tbo Upper Mississippi Val-
ley. Thoy come, no doubt, with variou;
idealities, but tbey came because thoy aan

but from what cause, they may not have

known— a ohonce for bettering their coodi-
dilions. Tbey acquired lauds, built houaos,
word, grow rich, and while so growing,
ltd tluvery while they were fattening on
.... .abors. In tbia wild career of contradic-
tions, they continued — partioulatly the Ger-
mans—uutil they hecamu tbo fierceat iu the
great effort now making to destroy the great
i go much Southern c-iport, cause of their prosperity. Few peopln, if
n of 91B,- any, have ever shown such blind stupidity.
But we may save our sbafls for objocls
nearer home. The foreigner, fulaely educa-
ted io regard to Atoericun aJTairs, who had
heard of negro slavery hut never seen ils 1 1.
workinga, may indulga in wild and fancied ''
apeouiations. liut when an American I'roa- ; ' '
iUunI, n citizen of Ihe great Norlbweatern . J'
country, and a nati?e of a alavo holdlnfl,
community, benda to tbo fanatical lash am!
embarks with tho power of n nation in the
same suicidal policy, modesty, at Icaat, do-
lis forbearnnon, in Ibe hlows aimed at
leaser back». A want of oopaoity may bo

Some time since, Mr. Mahosv, editor

Herald, mas arrested on some false oath of
his poliliool enemies, and sent to Washing-
ton City Bastile, and put in close confine-
ment- Soon after thia arrest, without war-
rant OT trial, the Coogressional Distriot
ConTontion met and nominated Mr. Mauon v
foe Congress, thus making open issue nith
these tyrannical acta of tbe Government.

As Mr. Mahonv, one of the most talent-
ed and popular men of Iowa, could neither
get a heoiirig. a trial, nor a release, Mr. Br-
INQTON, so well and favorably known in
Ohii>, has offered hia services to canvass the
Tjj^^ct for Mr. Mahonv.

Here we have an cipoaition of the secre

key to their charges upon tht' DeiaooraU
It was to direct attention from their owi
secret dels .' That was all. If ever a set of
scoundrels stood, before, stripped atark n

ones. This accounts also for the secret
reals made upon the testimony of perjared
men, but bid away in the eeorel recesses of

wbioh will never see light. Huudrcda of

Gov. S- MEOABy— Dear Sir ■■ 1 observe

igned " Carpenter of Rouen." iu which the
Jriter either ignorautly or wilfully misrep-
resents the condition of atlairs here, and
unjustly asperaea tha cbaruoter of the com-
manding General ef the Department. Tbe
Grat part ot the articio conlaioi a lacbry-
ount of the sufferings of tlie Ohio
Second, without any specilio charge except
hey had ■' been tnovcd from jilitce lo
place, as Ihe political element willed, with-
t any regard to their convenience or com-
-I-" A grave charge, truly! As if the
great ohjeotsof crushing this wicked tebel-
and defending the lives and properly of
an men and women were to bo post-
poned to tbe ■■ canvenienee and coiafoii " of
igle regiment. But huw atandthefautal
A few weeks after this regiment crossed tho
J Kansas it was ordered to Fort
Scott, where they have

from which they have not dan"
emnrge in force. It is true they oi
General, but they had bettor horsea
men, and the whole forct' of -1000 m
with a baggage train of fine wagt.
rale of jiity milts jitj day i W
yon got Union ttoopa to travel thu.
Bluut did not leave a horse or wagon to the
rebels, and only diecontinued the pursuit
when his horses were ton much used up lo
follow them any further. I was lold l)y a
Brigade Commandant tbat iu the night days
and uiKhta they wore gone he diil not be-
lieve Gouerul Blunt alopt J(i hours, put it
Ml together. . As to his aendiug Col. Cloud
to the wrong place, it is all uouaense, ai
Cloud's Brigade left twenty-four hours liO'
foto him, aod none of his orders evoi reach
ed Cloud until iifter tbe pursuit was aban
doned by both. Tho trip was a brilliant
coess BO far aa its results are concerned,
id is 10 regarded here.
Now. a word as to tbe management of the
Department. I say in all candor and sin-
ly thai this Doparlment has nerer been
celt -managed under fiunter, Sturgia,
iver or any body else, as under General
Blunt. I say this, t, a lifelong Dtnincrat
of Ihe Htraitest sect; I, who never had or
could have any other politics than Deraoc-
raoy, because it is to mo good morals and
sound religion combined i I, who was pre-
judiced against tbe General upon his first
advent into olSce, more, perhaps, because
I didn't know him than for any other reason,
I say tbat Ote Departmtnt lias ncctr been so
metl managed aa sinte he atsumed eonlrol. —
At first I was prejudiced, but I said " lot ua
wait and soe before wo condemn-" I have
nited.andlnowapprovo. In some respeola
0 is. perhaps, too strict, but it is a good
fault fur acommanding General. Tbe only
of hia that 1 did not approve, (and that
I have never condemned) woa thatin squoloh-
ng the /n^uirir, he did ' ' ' '

Contervalive, for if the
other was certainly notir
treason'' might have

R weeks, wbich last expedition came
disrupting tho army of tbe border, be'
ft of internal ijuarrela und disseuaious
among the officers. Tho prompt nnd ener-
getic interference of General Bluut alone
pruvented the catastrophe. He hurried to
the field at once iu person, upon being in-
formed of tbo Stale of things, and tnking
land himself, reooneiled nil ditficultlna

It is true a detail was made from the Sec -

It is true, also, tbat another deluilhas

of ihe Great Slate of Ohio ;
Dear Sib : — In vieBjog tbo post, and
looting at ihe pieaeot, I feel it my duty to
address y.-.u in behalf of some incidents
which have occurred within a fi'wdayj,lo
remind you of former days. I am a Demo-
-one of your own making. I most
like Paul of old, I waa taught the
jcralio principles from your lips. I
heard you iu '■«, when it waa Polk, Dallas
and Tod. In those days we were not jiol-
luted with the sectional strife; but cooiing
down to 1851), when I beard you again ia
Morion, when you aud your friend, Dr. E.
Olda, addressing us from the same stand.
tbcso clierishaJ prinoiple? which alone be-
louf to a Democrat. I told my friend* that
you were one of the best reaaoners thati
iteneU to. You demonslrat/?d the
calamity which would befall us if this »«•
tional party succeeded in electing a eec-
li President. You had told ua thotyou
left your peaceful farm to once more mini
g!e with yonr fellow -titiiena, if possible, lo
id tbe storm whioh is about Io envelop
you quoted the Pnrewell Address of
tbe Father of his Sountry; you appealed
' us all, when you slated those sound prin-
ples, aod aaid, if auy of you, my frienda,
ive not tliese principles, you bogged us,
for God's sake, lo leave the party. It was
a sad apectacle tot me to haru of tbe con-
lion this countiy would be subjected to ifi
e so-called BegubUcau party abould get
0 reins of the General Government; il-
htought mo to my feet, and tho teara. trickled i
iwu my oheekss

But, alas! where do I find you tu-ciaj!
Beudiug the ndws oflhe day, I find a cou<
between the edilcr of the Eagic
aud yourself — were it not Sjr tbe tbe good
book I would, not know bow to reconcilai
myself, but in there I dnd, thy grcatetl
enemy is of thy own household. If this is
true, you hove ahown iu your convoraation.

Democrat, or to an Americau citizen. I-
;Igner by birth, but an adopted
luvo never been orreatod for break-
ing any lt:jv. either oivM or criminal, but au
humble aud law-abiding citizen. But, my
dear air, when I heard of your sayiog, L
have arrested Dr. E. B- Olds, and by my
itbority was he arrested. I Looked back ol
Marion.when you and our friend drank out
ine cup ; and if it ia iceaaon now lo te-
d our Republimn frieitds what no told
m— that they were creating a civil war in
I country — it was treason than, and
. wore one uE thoie nbo advocolol it

makes my heart sick lo think a mu
im I so much ostoemcd for sound DefliO'

After the night closed, Calonel Dunham be-
ing the ranking officer, assumed command,
and reill, no doubt, mako a report of tho
events occurring Monday and Tuesday fol-
lowing the Sunday's fight. My whole force
oonsisiod of the Sinty-sevonth and Eighty-
ninth Indiana regiments, ono company of
the Eighteenth Regulare, liOJ recruits of the
Sevouieenth Indiana, two companies of the
Seventy-fourth Indiana, one company of
cavalry, Louisville Provost Guards. Lieu-
tenant WntBon commanding— ono twelve
pounder heavy gun, one twelve-pounder
Napoleon, one twelve -pounder howitzer, and
one Ihree-inob rifled gun, under Lieutenant
Mason, Thirteenth ^diana battery, siity
Thirty-third Kentucky, Captain Wil-
■the whole loroo amounting lo 2,V22
for duty. Xf I wore to give a bst of
those who did their whole duty, it would
iply be a muster roll of all who were
re- uomsn tiinchod or hold back a par-
ticle. I must, however, raenlion W, A.
Bullitt, Adjutant Third Kentaoky. who con-
"lyed orders for me through tbe holtcat of
le fire with as much coolness as if on re-
ew; and Captain Frank While, of tbe
Fifteenth Indiana, who superiuteaded the
eorthwork?, and whenever n point was ex-
posed to a raking fire from tbo enemy's bat-
teries, immediately tbr^iv up Iravoraea m
protect the men.

"re loss was 37 killed and woond-
.. .'Qomy admit a loss of 714 killed
and wounded on Sunday ulono. J can not
give M complete a rnporl as I could irish,
not having yet received it report from the
different commands engaged.

On Tuesday evening, nt seven P. M., I
was ogoin placed in commond. By this
General Polk had crossed the river ton
I altove, with tbe right wing of Brngg's
army, and coming down on the north side,
took up a position on ibe river bills com-
mandmg our works; the tofc wing, under
Hardee, basing taken position on the bills
Dulb side. Bragg had sunt u sum-
surrender, and a consultation had
been held late Tuesday evening, wi
monders of regiments, in which it
unanimous expression, that unless enabled
by reinforcements lo hold tho north side of
we could make no successful re-
sistance. All, however, decided to resist,
evidence should bo given of tbo
ovorwbelmingfotCBof tho enemy; und hav-
ing been informed that General Buell's ar-
my hod not left Bowling Green nt two P.
M. the day before, and having been notified
by you that wo could get no help from Lou-
iville. our nmmunition for small arms buing
ory limited, and oor men worn ont by con-
tant work audfigbling for tour daysoad
lights, and being salislicd tbat further rc-
siBlanco was no lesi than willful murder of
he brave men who had so long coi^tested
vith overwhelming numbers, I determined,
iftcr counting fifty fonr cannon in posilious
commanding our open field works, and sur-
rounded by over 25,0)10 men, with no possi-
ble chance of assistouoe from any quucter,
„ promised eooh by you from Bonl-
ing Green. 1 surrendered tbe entire force on
Wudnesduy moraingnl two A. M., with nil
the honors of ircr, drums healing ond oolots
flying, W" being allowed, by tba turma of
surrender, our side arms und all privaio
property, and four days' rations. Ofliccra
and men were immediately paroled, and are
about to Stan for tho Ohio Kivor.

If anything could add to tho derision in
which the Ttibunt's impululionson us, and
judirootly ou the President, doservo to bo
held, it might be found in tho deoiaralion
which that papor makes editorially, when,
in the anme number containing the refieo-
tioii on the Intolligencer'.t "attack upon
tha Prcsident'a proolamalion of fraedom,''
its editors aay that thoy ••would have issued
a I'trj diJTerenl decree of cmantipalion from
thai of frctidenl Lincoln."

The ■■diBloyaity"of thi,t declaration is
ipparent. Tho Preaidont has deUborattily
ssued n decree of a certain bind and in a
cortaiu form. All who doubt Ihe wisdom or
■ffioaoy of this decree aro " traitors." The
JVituiicTi then, either has no eonfidonoo in
judgmi-ntor it has a ■• traitorous "
doubt as to tbo quality of the President's
proelamatiou, for it hays it " would havo
uedn very different deoreo " from that
devised by Mr. Lincoln, On oither suppo-
ailiun ita opinion may be aalely disregarded
by iutolligent loyalists.

ident Ihat the 2Vi6un« would like

Ihe difforonco of our iBStea, if not of our

lo produce any aurpriso whim wu find him

Wo take the liberty of saying to Ihe <
duotors of the 'iVibune that there are otL
besides tbeniaelves who foel free to aay that
if they could havo had tha writing of it,
they would have issued a different decree
from that aolaally put forth by tho Presi-
dent. Does tbo Tribune claim the monop-
oly of dissenting from the terms of that
paper? Or does it raoko adhercnoo to tho
document a standard of loyalty only for
others, while claiming a diaponsation for
itself ? And what shall be said of the pro-
clamation as a " standard of loyalty," when
it is Q matter of public notorioty that a re-
apecluble minority of tho Cabinet, if not
even a majority, dissent from the policy it
proposes to inaugurate, or question the wis-
dom of ita utterance? The servile niaiim
iooulcaled by thoao who would make addic-
tion to sweat in the words of tho Preaident
a tost of loyally happily receives no coun-
tenance from Mr. Lincoln. Ifotherawant
lo be his oonfoasad vasaala. be doi's not want

Icld the Chicago einanoipaliotiisls what

"Let me nay ono Ibing more; 1 think jou

principle to rally and unite tbo people io tba foot
that oonslitutional govemmcat is at slake. This
a fundninental idea, going down about as deon
aoythiog." ^

,Wo havo no reason lo suppoaw Ihat tho
New York Tribune desires tbo perpetuity
of " constitutional government" in this
country. It certainly does nol believe in
the maiDleoonco of the National nulhorily
disaffected Slates. On the 9ihof Ko-
ler, ISeo, in full prospect of the aeces-
oulbreak, it held tbo following lan-
euagor

We feel bound to say that ibe Tribune
has faithfully knpt its promise nindo to the
SGcessiooiata. It "tiBS done its beat to for-
ward their viewa." To whatever olso it may
have been false, it has not bt^eu false to
them. Jualiop requires that nil should
award to it the honor of having aacredly
fulfillud the sad eugagement, Ibi.ugb it was
au engagement which would ii'iv>.' been more
honored in the hreaoh than tbt oj.iarvauoe.

And inatoad of purging himself from the
charge of " aiding and abetting " tho se-
oeasiouiata, tho Editor of tho Tribune, un-
der his own aignature, bus reiterated his
qualified adhesion to the principle. Uo
does not believe in the integrity of out
Union as a permanent politicu! dogma.—
Writing under tho '26tb of ibo present
mouth (Soptombor) to a querist in his pa-
per, Mr. Greeley "defines bis position"
once more, as follows :

had peaceably, dehberatoly and autbori tali rely ei-
proued that wish, we should hoie oneenlcd to it.
Atalloventa, /ahouM"

In the light of this declaration, tho reader
will perceive that Mr. Greeley is not Ggbt-
ingfor the perpetuity or integrity of the
Union. After tbe nation .?hall have ncquit-
ed a peace he will bo ready to unite with
the " Southern conspirators " who may ask
for a ^atlonal Convention "which shall
have power peaceably to dissolve the bonda
which bind us to each other." He says ho
tried to compass this in the winter of leCO-
01. The scheme failed only because his ol-
lies were too heady and impatient, uot be-
causo Mr. Gceeiey haseny repugnance to
the ■' rovololiouary right of seoesaion."
wbicb, tbougb revolutionary, he says "ex-
ists noverlbelesa." On this theory our
"war for ibe Union " is a monstrous blun-
der, and an equally monstrous orimo— boine
merely a posaionate coUision of forces pre-
cipitated by an act of folly on tho part of
the South, and aooopled in nnger by the
North, actio vindioala a principle and to
preserve the integrity of thfi nation, bot
merely to open tbe way in the end for a
' peaceful disgolution of tho bonds which
lite us to each other." On suoh s theory
we do not wonder thai tho Tribune baa al-
readyheguu togiveout "inkUngsof peaCo."

EX-flEHATOR ALLEN'S SrEECH.

Mt. Allen commenced by saying, that
tcny tehilc (atoring man tn OiC JVorIk, who
dou nol viant la bt swapped ajj" for a /ret
Nig/;tr, thould tote the VtmacralU Ticket.
He regarded the polioy tbat (ho mad Aho-
btion fanatics were endeavoring to foMlea
upon the country us deatmotive of the Con-
«UtuUoD, of the Union and of the White
man's inteicaCs. The Republican's gener-
ally he did not wieh to hn understood as
aharaoteiizing as AboUlionists; but he had
reference to that scbool of Now England po-
lltioiuns— tho Pbillipses, tbe GarriBons, tbo
Onjeleys, and their fijllowerB — who bad been
playinginto tbe bands of the South Carolina
Nnllifiers for thirty years — the former in-
siBling that the Uuien mu^t bo dissolved
that slavery might he abolished, and the lat-
ter insisting that the Union should bo dis-
HOlved that slavery might be perpetuated.
In all the speeches be had made — in all hie
converaatioas touohing tbe rebellionsinoo it
broko out — he bad associated thesu two par-
ties together oe baviog produced the troub-
lei tbat are upon us. New England wus
Mttledby the English Puritans and Saulb
Oaiolina by tbe Fr'inch Uugueools, and the
descendants of these have renewed tho old
contest of hereditary NutienaUiutredio (bis
country which had been waged for a Ibous-
and yeara between their anci-stors on the
other side of the Atlantic.

Suppose tbat the contemplated Emoiici-
palioD shonld be inaugoratud successfully,
seven or eight bundcud thousand aegroef,
witn their hands reeking in tho blood of
murdered womea und ohildren, would pre-
eent 'bemselves at our suutborn border, de-
manding to oroen over Into our State, as
Ohio's share of tbe freed slavea — teven or
eight hundred thousand negroes, without
money, without food, and without personal
property of any kind, who, in virtau of nn-
ture'e law. were oompellKd to eat and be
clothed. 'Then would come tbe oonUict be-
tween the white laborers and tbo niigtoes, —
Tbo uegroea would enter iulo such a cmpo-
titioQ with the while laborers, that the lul»r
would havi to abandon tho tield of labor
hero — make way for tbe negroes — or main-
tain their ground by waging a war au tbu
negroes that would result iu Jriving tbem

two races oannot livo together here m loia
country on terms ot equality.

The Proaidenffl limancipation Proolatnn-
tioa he looked upon as having been issued
by tbo President for tho purpose of toking
the scnsi.' "f tho people at tho ballot bu.'c.
Uo has bB.ii ■■ pleased " by tho fanatics of
his party, m Congress and out of Congress,
to DOihark on a sohomu of genernl Emnncl-
pulion. -Awornof itflimprHCtioabilityibohaa
issued thii proclamation btfart tbu elecUou
tbat the conservative men may rally to his
support, and to teach the rndicals tbat tho
measure can result iu uo goud. If the
President's beavt were iu tbo matter— if he
were aoiiuus to ontor upon a sohomo of gen-
eral £mnn':ipation — ho would not have is '
ailed the Preulamalioa ao near tho election,
whioh was lu he wilhouc elFeot uulil ho
sboald issue- ouotber proclamation three
months henoe. Unless it were to invite the
people lo puF.s upon it, believing tbat tbey
would repudiate tho principles of tho Proe-
lamatioa nt tbo ballot-bos. Had bia pur-
pose been different, be would hovo proolaim-
ed iinaiediiili< Emancipation, Oauifiectuf
tbe PrL>elHm[itiou. should it bo executed,
would III! 1(1 stimulate servile insurrection.
ThH borretsvf such an inautreotiou be pic-
tared ill gliiwing, but not iu overdrawn, col-
ore. If =i-t on foot whito women and cbil-
dreuwiiul.l Buffer to n terrible extent; but
eigUt-teulbd of the 'slaves would ho ijbot
down in their tracks. Tbut the Presideut
did not dii^ign lo eicito iusurreotioo ia clear
from ibe luct that ibe Proolamaliuu wa»
prospect I v,-. Had it been hid design, be
would bavi <p.vea it iustantancaus effcFCt,
now whiki ibu armies of the South lire away
from home ou the frontiers of tbo Border
Slates, and tho women and children of the
South, Ibereforo, esposed to tbo unresisted
rage of tbo negro, whose work ot murder
could ho proseoutod with oomparalive im-

No uiatl'-r bow men had hereloforo voted,
lAere icas only one war/ ihey could now volt
to mainiain tte Contlitulioii, the Laai, the
Hajtpiiten and the Liberlicj o} the Ptojite,
and chat was to vote the Democratic Ticket,

He hoped tho people would roily to tbe
support of the President at the election —
that Seymour, in New York, and Itunny, in
Ohio, and tho Democratio candidates for
Congress would ba elected. Ho did not
think that the President wunted to enter
upon Ibis ichomu of Emanoipation ; but bo
had no other knowledge of tho President's
views than he dorived from hisewnjudg-

Mr. Allen was us noxious as any man tbnt
e rebellion should bo put donu. Ou ibat
point there could he uo doubt. When tho
ibellion wuspul down be wanted tbo Cou-
.itulion ii> bo up ! Tbe Demooralio party
leaders bad committed oners — mi/ht coiu-
lit tboui ofjain- but it was the only party
.hat could suvu tbu country. Had the ma-
ority of Congressmen in tho last Congress
)oen Demucrals, Ihere would net have been
the late call/or sia hvndrcd thousand men !
Tho fauatica, by their meddlesomeness, had
■arly deetroyd tho old orioy, so that this
ibscipout call became necessary.
In conclusion, he earnestly urged Ibu iui-
irtancD of volbg tho Democratic Tinkel,
ho tpeech, of which the forogoiog is an
imperlect outline, was a powerful one — one
ot Mr. Allen's beet.aud when he contempla-
ted thopriuoiptes of tbe Presidont'e Lman-
cipalion Proclamation, bia iudignalion be-
came intense. Ho was frequently ialonup-
ted by hearty and long continued applause.
He touched tho keys of the public bean,

to expect Iron) ft[r. Stantou's ■■military
oomnii;»i<in " — illtgal and theroforo rtrotu-

four hours," m\i\ "cnrts, which were ready
beforehand, lu bo loaded with violims wbuEo
very uamos w&re not mentioned, and Bgaiust
whom uo depositions, even, wero madu."
He lormi'd a jury of bis own ndhorents.
"It would beimpoisihle," says iho historian
Thiers, ■' to detail all his alrocilie-'.'- "siny

When thia bint was ibrowu out, thojucy

busy just now with tho President's prooln-
mmiou relating to tho abolition of slavery.
We do not Wonder that everybody should

yet that everybody should agree to differ
the possible advantages that may attend its
promulgation. For oufselves wp think it
the least Dreditahio, tmJ by far Ibo most uu

worthy President — in wfaose honeily ivo arc
still Groi believers, though our fait n in his
jurlgnient is severely sbakou by this last
ouuding coup d'etat. In tb^ first place,
think tbe proclamation is is.sued lao tale
(0 produoo any considerable amuuut of
good. If it bad been issued a year ago,
ibcn, indoedi it might bavo proveuted much
of the evil that has come upon the country,
inasmuch as the fear of losing their slaves

rnurs to reason. Now they iiro past rea-

e caoso we all love — be has, it may be,
_ veu mortal offtuao to the loyal men of the
Border States, nnd he hoi, by bis own act,
brought Iho wisdom of bis Government in-
to contempt, and made himself and his proc-
lamation, if not ridioulcus — at leajl, some-
thing very near it. He has set the whole

and ho has enabled '■ Iho sym pat hi sera " to

If there be •■ a sweet cbomb that sits up
aloft, keeping watch for " this great coun-
try of ours, wo wonder wbot it was nboul
when Abraham Lincoln was signing that
good-for-little proclamation of hid. We
aro almost certain that the guardian spirit
of tbo Republic flew off that moment (if ll

be the fact- Wo neror put bis majority at

Greene have given heavier votes against
him than we eipecled. Success is, however,
a great victory if only by one vote.

that it baa disgusted tvtn aome of Ihoir own

Yours in hQEte,

Skulking a Oralt.

Tho Bluck Itopublioans are good hands
to get up a wor, hut poor bauds (o help
;lit it out. This was very conspicuously
own at the recent drafting in Elyria.
In that smart little town, ouly eight miles
•[Q Oborlin. it was accidentally discovered
1 Iho moruiog of th.i draft, that the names
many of the most wealthy nnd prominent
Black nepublicans of that village had been
erased from tbo list — and wars not to be
found in tho drafting wheel. This privil
eged class wore nil Black llepublicnns. or
perhaps, 1 ought to say. Union Repubti-
', and embraced the County Clerk, th(
County Treasurer, tho Proseoutiug Atlor.
ncy, a private banker, a nabob and several
including an editor of a Black Ke-
publicau paper, who, not long siuce, pub
lished all persoos who applied to be exempt-
>d from draft by reason of physical disa-
bility na "aneaks."

initod wealth of this privileged
olasa, Is not less than llireo to four hundred
thousand dollar;-. Several of them are bIk
feel and well proportioned, and nearly as
fat nnd valiant os was Sir Jack Fallstaff.
Up to tho lime of the draft thoy were in
Creat danger of being consumed by their
own patriotism. They were literally oohiog
for a light with Ihorebelfl, and som'"-
aeouiod as though it would requir,

to hold Ihcra. But when tbo diaft
and there was danger they might bo
drawn, Iheir patriotism, blaster and cour-
age left them suddenly.

Thoy all, howover, stoutly denied any
knowledge that their names were erased
from tho loll. Thoy charged it to the unso-
licited partiality of tho eiamining surgeon
who had charge of the roll, and ho excused
hlmaelf for grantiiig tho unsolicited favor,
by saying that Governor Tod had authori-
zed him to strike tho names off. If there
authority given to do it in Elyria, why
not similar authority given and exor-
cised in olhor pbces ?

Who knows how thiaia! When it be-

>mes ueoeasary for the Government to im-

proaa ita citizens into involuntary servitude,

" fihould bafuirly done. Tho woollhy uud

fluential ahould not bo allowed to shirk on

puiir poriiuiis the dangers incident to a

draft. Fair Play.

The Dran.

In accordance with tbo notion issued by
tho dratting Commissioner, the men drafted
from this county met at Asblnnd on Mou-
daylaat. Tliey appeared ■> not to like it,"
and many wore the ouraes heaped upon the
party iu power, not only deep but loud.
During the day, tho Hanover townnhip
delegation came iu, 38 men, and a sample
of the anntimenfa of (he crowd was to be
observed by the moUocs upon their ban-
ners. The mottoes wore as follows :

"Tho Cooslii

" Tbo CuDstitBflun as it ia anil the Doion na it

" Lincoln's nrlifidnl p.inie. l^i NoboJ* Hurt I

'■ Nigeorn and Pceachora oiompt"

" Bound r»r the Nigger War."

" 3a— Hanover's quota for Ih u A'iffgtr IFof.'"
These Bontiment* wore onthuBJnslioally
cheered by tbe crowd present aa the ban-
lers were borne through the street. We
believe there waa not a man iu tho whole
number but is willing to lay down his life

id sacrifice his property for tho salvation
of his ooubtry. but tbo detorminatioii was
visible in every oye that these men were
not to be trifled with, and that they did not
intend to shoot white men, or U that by

Considerable oscitomnut prevailed

this coDuiry under our Conalltuiion has
been a subject of wonder Eiid ujitonishmont
10 Ibe whole world. From tbirteeu States
we increased our nucobcr to thirty-four.
embrnoiDg every variety of soil and climate

invenltvB genius ot our people soon aur-
mouoted every physical obstacle, aad all
branches of trade and enterpriso wos in a
Bouriabing state to tho farthest verge of
our entico domain. Tho European despots
of the old world hod tried out conquest and
boasted that out Ship of Stole wu!. an "idle
craft," and brought agaiust it -jvory oun-
uing plot ot war they were capable of devis-
ing, hut when they signally failed in every
attempt, tbey turned away with a. wild yell

After beiog hit oa above 1 eloppeil haok

After firing throe limes, tuiolher ball hit me

I thea left tho fonoo to get behind a tree
standing Bomo 250 yards ofi', nnd picked up
n revolver which lay on iho groood. Jutit
after I left Ihe feuoo a bullet etruck me on
vbu right wrist, glanoiog ofi' from tho bone.
I went a little further tuwoTdtho tree, when
mo twelvii or fifleen Confederate soldiers

I fired the revolver nl them thr'o times,
und justns I fired thu third barrel, a buUet
fired by one of the company atruck me just

I knew nothing more until ubout uoon tbe

not. Afl«r this 1 made scveril ioeffectaal

arrived at the rebel headiinarters on the
night of the iBt nilh foil paclioulata of our
numbers, tUa names of our commanders,
and the routes beiug (aken by the diffarunt
corps of our army. They also carried with
them copies of the Louisville and Cmciu-
naU papers of tho latest date, with whioh
some of their friends had ran tho blocfeada.
Siasa had cone to Leiinglon, leaving Gen.

reooiving news of our advance, diapatobed
COuritts to LeiiDgtou, Frankfort and other
points, so that before tbo motoinc of the
5d, every rebel General in Kentuofcy was
nformed of our movemonta.

About two miles from LonlsTille the three
army corps separated. Gen. McCook'a
corps forming tho left wing, took the Tay-
lofiiviUa- Road, Gen. Gilberfs the Sbep-
herdsvill-, and Gen. Crittenden's focmiog
the right ningi the Bardstowu Pike. Gens.
Buoll and Thomaa UPOompanled Crittenden's
Corpa, and remained witb it during the cam-

Ic was Gen. Buell'a belief when ho left
Louiaville, tbut llrogg ivould give him bat-
tle at Bardstown, and tho statements of a
few pritonera, taken on the first evening of
our march, coofiroied him in it. From all
lean toaro Ifcel conlideot that it was Bragg'a
Otiginal intention to form a junction with
Kiiby Smith and make a stand at Ijexing-
ton or DaDville. Ho learned in lime, how
ever, that BooU's army had boon largely in-
creased in effcotivo force, and determined
to avoid a collision irith it-

Tho last of tho rebel infantry left Bards-
town on tho "night of tho 3d or very early
on tbo morning of tho 4lh. Tho order to
TQCato tho pluoe oamo Irom Bragg'a head-
quarteia at LosingloQ, on tho night of the
3d, taking the Confederate troopa very much
by aurpriso. A strong rear guard of oavuj-
ry, under General Wharton, was left bo-
hind, with strict orders to keep Buell'a for
CCS out of Bocdstown until the evening of
tho 4lh, even at tho sacrifice of every man
in tbo command. The object of this was
to give tho rebel wagon train timo to get
fif^en or.twenty miles ahead of the federal
fotoes, to prevent its capture by a sudden
jsab of oar cavalry. Wharton ambushed
hJB men. near Ibo Bard stair u Fair Ground,
and rushed upon our advance guard on the
oftoraoiin of ibo 4th. Wo did not enter
Bardslowr^ until the time specified by Gen-
eral ]jngg-:-DOt becauBB of Whortuu'a de-
bermiacd r'^ist^co, but because General
Buell had ohabjgod (ho route of Crittenden's
CorpB in tiw moroiog, and instead of per-
miltiug it to go iTiri^ot to Bardstown where
it migtt huuo aftiviid in Umo to capture
thanBuuda of.rettealing rebels, and
their lralo,.he ordered it to march
BloouiGeid iiond. General Hascall. ii
mood of the 15ch Brigade that day, received
reliable information, after proceeding more
than a mile da the Bluomliela lload, that
there wuro no rebels on il, but that there
nere large numbers of tht;:

So far fr->m boiog tho development of BuelVs

t wQi fpLTted at headquarters on the 7th
hat Ihotuemy was in furco at Perryville.
rhi> ilir. i> army corps were thou marching
u Ibttt |i|iice by different roads. General
Buell determined to sarrouud the rebels, if
possible, and ordered all the divisions to
march wifh.ut delay, leaving iheir traus-
portalion behind. ftloCook and Gilbert oon-
inued Ihoir marob, but Crittenden's corps
ost half a day oti a circuitous route to
obtain water. It was not General Buell's
intention that MoCook should ultaok the
rebels, or that MoCook nnd Gilbert should
but that the onlire army should psr-
tioipato in tho fight. But Bragg was toOi
quiok for him. , He heard that the Union
forces wcro about to overwhelm him united-
ly, and immediately begun his retreat for
Perryville. He afterwards barned that
MoCook and Gilbert were on llie road, and
that Crittenden was not within supporting
Here, then, was a chance for
ke a dash upon tw.i corps, defeot
tbem if iiusaihle, and afterwards fall upou
the third ; if not, to pot away before tho
i! of tbo third. Hardee's corps had
retreated sis miles, when it wns ordered
baok to Perryville on tho double qoiok.
SIcCook found himself in front of tho rebel
line of battle, with his men marching in col-
no skirmishora out. nothing in front
smaU advance guard, wbioh foolishly
atlemptfd au attack upon the rebel vedettes,
The rebi-i iafantry rushed upon MoCook,
vision of green troops hud to be
formed in Hoe of battle under a heavy firo.
Tho natural result was a stampede.

Thore s^-cms to havo been, on tho part of
the corps commanders, a lack ot that con-
cert of action and knowledge of one an-
other's positions so necessary to the suo-
eeasful development of a plan of battle.
When Crittenden's men came up on tbo
Qvening of the 8tb, they wore placed on the
right. S:iiiih'3 division arrived first, and
atutioui'd ou tbo extreme right; then
> Vau Cleavo'a. to the left of Smith's ;
then Wood'?, to Iho left of Van Cleavo'a,
,d to tho right of Gilbert's corps; so that
iring tho three or four hours intervening
between the arrival of Smith and Wood
there was a gap of several miles in our line,
if which it is a wonder the rebels took do
idvantoge- Gen. Wood waa ordered to join
Gilbert's right, but Gon. Crittenden could
nut tell him where Gilbert's right was ex
actly; oiid when he sent his aids to ascer-
tain wheru it was, they found tbo rebels
endeavoriug to turn it. A brigade of Gen.
Wood's division saved at least a portion of
Gilbert's corps.

The moon never shone more brightly thai^
the night of the eth. Until four o'clock
it morning there was suffioieut light for
ordinary eyes to reod and write by. The
rebels were in Perryville up to ten o'clock.
There was not a division commauder in tbo
army who did not eipeot to advance on tho
enemy befom momiug. Everything was
ready— uU our lines formed, and all our ar-
tillery on the ground. Tho rebel foroe was
"vidcd. Gen. Sill was between Kirby Smith
id Perryville. The defeat of Hardee, Buck-
II end Cheatham would have proved an
easy task for the Army of the Ohio. But
no ndrance was made. We wailed for day-
light, but iLe rebels did not. :^ame of our
I, from one of the hills surrounding the

iioon ou the cith before Gen. Buell as-
certained that there was uu eaomy imme-

victory at Perryville, but I annoot see in
hat their triumph consisted. Thvir dead
jtnumbered ours, and their wounded also.
iuwovcr, the fact that they retreated ou the
9th 19 no indication that they were whipped
on the 6th. This retreat was duu solely to
the arrival of Gen. Critteoden'a corps. The
<t is, the battle waa more barren of resulla
both parties than any engagement that
hus yet occurred In the Souihwest. I di

iC en tbo followlug day, when we ou-
iped within a milo of Dauville, on the'
Danville aud Harrodsburg turnpike. Tho
iliro Army of tho Ohio was at this, point
I tho night of the 12tb.
The wary rebel General, bud, by this limy,,
urnt^d what Buell's plan was, nnd tbo only
ly li frustrate it was for him to strike
utsatCamp Dick Bobinaoniaad commence
his retreat toward Cumberlond Gap. On
gbt of tho 11th, the evnou alio n of the
ohoaen stronghold began.' Two lines of
treat were open to Bragg, both leading lo
imbtrland Gap, tho ouo i-ia Kichmond
d Big Hill, through Madison County, the
other the Crab Orchard Koad t'ia Mt. Ver-
and Barbouraville. The two roads con-
verge at Pitman's Junction, twenty-two
miles from Mount Vernon, where we are nl
present encamped, nnd fifty-eight miles
from Cumberland Gap. Bragg's only hope
of escape was to get away before Buell
could send a force to Lancaster to head him
I rebel plunder train numbered over
four thousand heavily laden wagons — a ma
joril.y of which wore captured from our
forces in this State and Tounesseo— several
thousand beef cattle, one thouauud mules,,
thousand sheep. To get away wilh
all this, and 8U,000 men, under the eyes of
the great Army of the Ohio, was an under-
takiui: which few would have atletnpted;
but Brugg has made the effort, and so far has
■ en successful.

While we were lying at Danville General
BueU received the intelligenoe of Bragg's
departure from Camp Dick Hohinson. Ho
surprised to learn that the rebels wcro
ing Iheir comfortable winter quarters in

At midnight ou the 12th, while we were
all enjoying a slumber, doubly sweet after
me marches by night and day, a courier
dashing into camp from Gen. BuelPa
heudquortets at Perryville, with au order for
'immediate advance of tbo army. Trana-
pbrlalion of all kinds was ordered to reuiaiu
behind, nothing but ambulances to accom-
pany the troops. By one o'clock A. M. wo
on the road, making our way by dim
dight to tho ratceatiugfoe— then sup-
posed to be passing through Stanford, n
town distanced nine miles from Danville. —
The march wag a rapid one. but we arHved
just in time to see tbercar of the rear guard
pBs^iing aloug unmolested. Oar cavalry and
artillery were brought into requijitiou. —
Tho rebels, though rtw in numbers, derler-
mined to amufe us and themselves for a
bile by the excbango of a few shots. —
They had a couple of howitzers, drawQ by
one mule eicb, and collectively known as
the Jackass Battery, and about two regi-
of cavalry, iucludiag tbo invinoibte
Bangers, With these their mm was

5. And it cume Io pass us soon as they
[^ prt'pBTed ibe memorial, they desoeuded
iram tbe top of the mounloio, and Get tboir
iMsts tonnrd the chief city of the Provinoea.

G. And when they arrived at the giitee of
lie chief city oven WaBhington, they en-

} the oM man was in health.

7. And nben they found n place to lodge
a they cTashed their foot and ooiobed their

aia of the house set meat befoio tliem and
tbey did eat.

8. Aod on the third day tbey oame in be-
tire filber Abraham and boned their heads
ud mode obesiaace, and Abraham received
l^n ooarleoualy, and made them nfeaat.

9. And when their hearts wpre merry, tbey
ijfead the memorial before Abriiham, auU
r^ it aloud in liis hearing. And the read-
;. was in thiswise:

10. Most venerable father Abraham, we,
It' loyal CoTernora from beyond the river,
bving mot in secret conolavo on the lop of
illfgbeny mountain, and consult^ together
!a« "e may strongthea your handu, and
prp3fr\-e the Chicago platform.

11. We do novf, father Abraham, oon-
ci^tulate you on your late proclamatloua,
int ia freeing the sous of Ham from boad-
E|«, aod second, in putting a gag on the
teoooraLs. end we now implore you on onr
traded knees to enforce thefae proolamatioue
I) the very letter.

IS. You know, falber Abraham, the Dem-
l^:[aLj are outspiiken end learned wiihul.
udMQ make long speeobes to wile away

13. We repeat again to you our loyalty
lodlba: of out people, and we implore you
Id devise eome plan whereby we can get rid
cf Vallandigbam, Cox, Vorheca and their
(Mfederates, even until after tho eleolion.

14. If you can do this, no will easily beat
1^9 Butternuts, and eave our platform, and
vlim the election is over yon can torn them
L«ie as you have done all the other slate
pionerd without telling thorn why, or toi
■bat, and they will not dare oak any ques-

15. You may rest aseured. father Abra-
iia, if we let these Copperhead* get the
Epper baud on thn second Tuesday of Oo-
iibbt, you may as well pack up and mukt
Incks for lUJndis, and go at rail splittiog

I 27. And wlieu tbo lols were ouuitted. it^
ifa.-H found that tho Democrats (ar outnum-,
' hered the Hamiles — yiia, by many thous'
unds, nod when Father Basoom of the'
■■Rush-ligbt " heard the result- ho cried col
hkn Athiilish of old. Treason.' Treason!!

^. And moreover ho said, no wonder we
nro defeated, th*/ Union men have all gone
to th" war, hut the rascally traitors, the
Oemooratis staid at homo to vote, and henoo
we ace knocked, our plotfurm is eone, we
lliought tho devils were dead, but claa, they
risn up around us like the locusts of Egypt,

20, And whoa ihcnews of these eleotioos
reaobed fiitber Abraham, and ivhen be foond
his platform gone, and his proclamation re-
pudiated, his kiieen smote together, aod
there was no mere ulrcngth in him, and bis
spouHB Haid unto him, I am weary of my
life, let me. I pray thee, leave this city. 1
fear it is doomed todestruotlon. and hn said

ito her, gi>— and ehe departed toward the

as-t country.

liO. And Abraham aoid unto his councel-

s, we ore undone, we may thank GreeUiy
and Beecber and Pbillipa aod the cursed
Abolitionists, for these Democratic victories!
now puph this wor with more
vic;or, nod punish thn rascally ronlraotors

**rB, ihai ihe people of Indiana, and aLw ol

I Om Ptoflc of Cast TtBttsiee:

In oil the epoeobes which I made to you

til'! spring aud summer of ISCt. as well

in a printed address to tbo people of the

Stale, on or about the 30lb of May. I561, I

declared, in substance, that if I bad be

lioved it was the object of tbo North to oub

jugate thn South and emundipatd our slaves

in violation of tho Constitution, I would

have gone as far as tbo farthest in advooat-

'ng resistance to the utmost extent.

My allontion has just been called to a
procbmalicn issued by the President of tho
il^d Statea, on the tad day of September,
2, in which be declares that " on tho first
<]ay of January, in the year of cur Lord
onu thousand eight hundred and si I ty three,
all |j?reoos hold as sh»ves within any State,
or liny designated part of a Slute, the peo-
ple whereof shall then be in rebellion againtt
ihe Uuitf-d States, shall be thenceforward
and forever fioe, and the Eiecutivo Govern-
ment of the United States, including the
ilary and nnvai authority, will recog-
I and [uaintaiu the freedom ol Eucb per-
8, aud will do no act or acts to repress
eucb persons or any of them in any efforts
Ihey may make for their actual fieedum."

I need scarcely remind you that one of
the evils which I dreaded aud prodiol«d
the results .^f the efforts which were made
to diisolvo the Union was that, in tbo pro.
^ress of the war, they might open the way
lor servile insurreotion and the overthrow
of the inslitutioQ of slavery. My opinion
OS to the unconstitutionality >uid impolicy
of.eeoessioQ remaius uncbunged ; but io
my last speech in Coogre-'e, uud on various
other public occasione. I have viudiestod
aud maintained, and still maintain, tbe right
of revolution. On no ocoosioo, howevr,
did I over assert tbe doctriuetbutH viola-
tion of tho Constitution bj cni> party would
authorize nr justify similar or other viola-
tions by the opposing party. Tlio para-
mount caasua which have controlled or in-
Sueuced my conduct and opialons were lov«i
for the Union, and an unshaken cunddeaee
that we had tbo best Cunstltutiun aud Gov-
ernmeat in the world. Bot of all the acts
of dospotism. of which tho civil war in
which we are now engaged has been the
prolific source, there is not one which, iti
tho slightest degree, equals the atrocity and
barbarism of iur. Lincoln's proclamatloa.
At one blow it deprives all tho uUiiens of
the slave States, without dlbtinction, of tbe
right to bold slaves — a right guaranteed bv
thu very Cunstituilun be f rcteuds to uphold,
it is true, he makofi an intimation that ho
will ivcommend to Ooogress to provide Juat
componsatiou to Union masters in the siavo
States i but what right baa he or the Gov-
ernment of the United States to deprive
of this property without their consenll
Aud what asBuranco nave tbey that bLs vague
III general intimation will be applied to
em, or tbot an Abolition Coogre.', reeking
ith the blood of the South, and Jubilant ii>
e poasessioo nf u:jurped ]^>ower, will adopt
s recommendation ?

We are in the midiit of a eea of diffieul-
■s. Many acts have been doua in the
South to which wo wore bitterly opposed as
peopli-, and which ne who have adhered
1 the Union In apito of perils
could not justify urpulli '~ '

ibo very recent prooiumation issued by Ma-,
jor-General Jonoa you have the assurnnoe
that your complaints will be hentd, and the
most energetic measures Wopted to remedy
the evils to which you hnve been subjected.'
Let not, then, a sense ol pcirate and pres-
ent wrongs blind you against the eqormities
already perpetrated, and still raoro i-eriously
contemplated by ^^^, Lincoln's adminislrn-
tion. If n majorily of tbe Republican party
have been glaceio in their professions of a
dotorminstion to respect tbe right of slavery
in tho States, and if the light of freedom is
not utterly oilinguiabed in tho North, may
we not hope that a spirit of resistance will
be aroused in that section, which, combined
with the efforts of tbe South, will hurl Mr.
Lincoln from power, and even yet restore

Senoe and harmony to our disttocted and
ivided country) But if through fear, or
any clhet cause, Mr. Lincoln's infamous
proclamation is sustained, then wo have no
Union to hope for, uo Constitution ii} strug-
gle for, no raaguifieeni and unbroken heri-
tage to maintain, no pe.ice to o:[peot, save
such as, with the blessing of Providence,
we mny conquer. The aroiiea wbicb have
been sent near you. to taotaliao you with
hope, have been vrithdrawn. and, with oool
audacity, Mr. Lincoln virtually tells you
that you bavo no rights. No alternative
remains but to choose, the destiny which an
arrogant nod unprincipled edministr^liou
forces upon na.

It is nlmofil unnecessary to declare to you
that I adhered to tbe Union amidst good
report and ovil report, suffering and danger,
while it was in my power Io support it, and
that when my efforts were paralysed and
my voice silenced by causes beyond my
control. I have cherished tbe hope that all
might yet be well: but "the last link Is
broken" that bound me to a government for
which my ancestors fought, and whatever
may be the course of others. I (.ball feel it
my duty to encourage the most persevering
and determined resistance agniuet tho ty-'
rants and usurpers of the FedLTal Adminis-
tration, who bavQ blasted our hopes, and
are seeking to destroy the Xne-t vostige of
freedom among us. If you would tave
yourselves from a epeeiea of osroogo unex-
ampled in tbo history of North America,
but unequivocally invited ia Mr. Lincoln's
prbclamalion, let every man who is able to
fight buckle on his armor, and. without

E reaper a manor government which hereto-
lire hypooritioally preloaded tb wage war
for tbe Constitution, but now ihrows off tho
mask, and sets it at naught and defiance.

No despot in Europe would dare to eser-
oise the poivers which Mr. Lincoln la less
than two brief years bus boldly usurptd.
Ho bos suspended the writof Aafreoi corpus
in regard to all persons wbo have been or
may be imprisoned by military authority,
and thus destroyed the right essential to^
the liberty of the citizen, a right which t)io'
mailed barons of England wrested by force
King John, and inserted in the gr<!at
charier of Uiitisb freedom; a right which
it caused centuries of contests to engraft
ion the British Constitution; a right for
licb our fathers sternly struggled, aud
nbieh is incorporated in every American.
Ho has called urmie^i into,
tbo field without authority, nccordiug to bis
rn acknowledgment, aud has become a
Hilary dictator. Ho now claims the pre-
rogative to aboliib slavery without any con-
sent ; and if he can thus take our negrucs,
>vby may bo not take our landa, and every,
thing else we possess, aud reduce us to a
state of vassalage to which no parallel can
be foQiid save in tbe history of tbo Middle
Ages. Thomas A, R. Nelson.

Tho rabid portiou of the people both
North and South, ivhodonotgoneur one
to arooll powder, but look to tho gain.i, I
set up a eidiijltaneouB how) at Ibeir G<
rala In oomrnaad. Nearly every prominent
General iu tho Federal and Confederate
iea is Eot upon wilbterrifie aluse, by the
e cla?:i of home peculatora, as though
armies were in the field for tbeir ;poo-
imaECmoot. BUF.L is denounced and re-
ed by tbe Notlbemera, and IIraqq is
denounced and probably will be removed
by the Soulhemers. beoauso they did not
■tber. And thia bloody cru-
sade on coiomanding Generals Norib and
South goes on aa though by agreement of
the clviliang, who gel plunder by tho war.

The truth is. the great masses of the peo-
ple North nnd Sooth tinker had any poiitl-
oal grudges to aettle. Tliey do a good deal
oting. and have done pretty muoh all
the figbtinj,'. and if they havo discovered
that they have been humbugged by politi-
al oharlatans for office and plunder, they
'ill think o little over the matter whether
there i^ cotaEhortor laoduof aetlling our
national troubles than by a tnenty yeara
then would become of the wai-
poUtioian^ .' What tho fate of thoie who
ive etimuhtcd this hntaon oaraogo for the
ke of office and plunder ! We will not
mplete the figure jiiat now. perhaps
it we may very aooo. There is i

daily cries for private charity und help.
Why harry ti.'ns of tliuuaauda luoro to tho

Government, uot outlawed for icbumanity,

Sappoaicg the commanding Generals in

branch of their roaponsibilitles, and tboogh

without ffiulain their bodies, like tbooffioe
beggars, and from common tinmonity
Godly mercy for the brave fellona who full
at their bidding, hesitate to do moro than
they con do well, and with safety

Iiere ia .i poiiibitit!i that these abused Gi
rals may be by (or b'Jtter and wiser u
than those who iiie abusing them. Wo
tbor think they are.

If propositions ol peace are to be »prung
upon ua before many weeks, us is strongly
hinted from muny quarters, and oar armies
really been fighting of lato for a howi-
liary, andnot "for Ike Union." it ia pojii-
t/cthat the armies havo concluded tbat it ia a

A few weeks since when tho peopls of !1^''°.>''
onr Dt-ighbor city of Rochester, were laudi-
bly engaced in raisiDg a company for wrvlce
against thp Indians, and were about lo elect
Judge Olds, a raoBt eioellent man and eound
Democrat, to command eaid company,
Homo infernal devils, leaders of the Repub'
Lean party, used every mean effort in theii
power to break up the company because
they were to be commanded by a Democrat.
In speaking of the proceedings of the meet-
ing hold for the purposes beforo stated, the
manly editor of the Rtpubliean, printed in
that Ci^. uses the following language -.

"OtberB mved Ibat the Captaio woa a Seceih

A hundred cases of thi

Abolition Colonel placed ove
Democratic Colonel, who

ber have been treated ia tho some i
the expenses iocuried in raising Ihi
njes either refused to be paid at all. or so
out down that the pay auiountod to very lit-
tle. Several Democrals have been pecuni-
arily ruined by these parliian transaotions
and the eoldierH disappointed by having offi-
cers put over Ihem. under whom they never
would have enlisted. By this process and
others, not a whit moro manly or honorable,
whole regiments have been demoralized and
made worthless for any lighting purposes!
Tbo whole state is full of dissatisfaction

What makes this nuurrel of lUe Republi-
.n leaders of Minnesota the more ioK-ri;6t-
g is, that what they say of each olher ie
true. When these charges were made by
Demoorats, they were met by liar, scoun-
drel, traitor, secessionist, &:o., tec., but now
they are m<ide by (ho Republican.*, on one
another, the scene becomes one of a. highly
luaing character.

W'b have iome hopes now that Minneso-
raay get back to the point where she
started, and rub out old Ropublioaa scores,
w. It is Ihe only salvation
left for her. More principle and less mon-
ey in cootrolling voters there, will be a de-
cided imf'rovomeat on the past, and honesty
may then breathe freo again,

The people, in their soverigu capacity.

t the ballot bor— thank God t^st it is iliH
the weapon of freemen i — iu this State, u
well 03 in many other of tho grand Slah»
of this grand Confederacy, have proclaimed
■' " the ffODCmm-eisl of thia country is the
tilulion — iu deliaDOO of nhieh instra-
tnent. Dr. Olds and hundreds of olher pat-
riots nre now confined in dungeous and

And ngain. we would ask to rcmiad yoa
that you aro sworn to eiecuto the laws of

among these laws is "an act to prevent

Dr. Olds was arrested upon your " oath or

ly " should fall beneath the bitter ban of its
execution. 4th. We demand sir, of you,
the rulea.'e of Edson B. Olds, in the came
of an outraged poople and a violated Coa-
stitution. Wo demand of you, sir. if Dr,
Olds is uoC rcleasod, to know upon what au-
thority you arrest a free citizenof the Stale
of Ohio, nnd incarcerate him wiibin tho
walla of ^polilieal Baslile. 5th. We de-
mand of you in the name of the people of
tba Stato of Ohio, whoso trusts your have
violated, and whose liberties you have con-
temptuously trampled under foot, to bring
to a speedy trial, Ed*on B. Olds, whom yoa

Awful ! And the " Old Wheel-Horse" trol-
led out. nud "talked nonseufo" to the peo-
ple in moss worso than ever. Thd defeat of
the liepoblicaa party, c-ven in Ohio, could
bare been bcrne ; but that you sboold con-
descend to "talk nonsense" is inaufferablo.
]l is working as I told yon it would; the
mat heart is pulsating, and its tbtobs are
b^ginolng to he seen aud felt. WeU and
nobly bnve you ministered to the diseased

jon shall succeed in effi-oting a cure.

"NoDBense," forsooth ! Ay, aucb "non-

B(ll be forgiven one in bis "dolago." On-
nard! Spread it to the South, tho North,

Iu the Memories de la Socicte de Pkysi-
le of Geoova, is an interesliog paper by
. Cassimir do CauJollo on tbe growth of
cork. Allhougb tbia useful substauod es-
ists in vorying ijuautily in the hark of all
phanerogamous plants and in several cryto-
garnous, yet for oommeroinl purposes it is
wholly procured from two speoies of nak,
Quercua occidcniaiis, growing tu tha soulb-
wesl of France und in Portugal, and from
QucTcus Suber, (the oork tree) gcowin,;;
the southeast of France, iu Italy, in Algi
ria, and in Iho isles of tho ilodilerraneui
The acoros of ibo former speoiea take two
years to ripen. In 1859 M. C- do Candnlle,
while staying in Algeria, studied tbe devel.
opnjent of the latter species. It is oompoS'
ed of four layers — the epidermis, the oorby
envelope, tbe cellular envelope, and tbe
liber nhich oovora Ihe aoft wood. Those
four parts increase independently of eaob
other year after year. In the third or
fourth year tho epidermis, having attained
tbe limita of its eclaaticily, splits longitud-
lly, aud a marked ohange takes place ir
tho corky envelope, which gradually take)
■ip the appearance of trao cork ; now lay
rs are produced, and iho trans form atioi
of celluloao into cork ateadily goes on.—
The cork thus naturally developed bus u<
commercial value. It is termed "male;'
and Ibe first act (dcmasdage) of the oulii
valor is lo separate it from tbotrnnk, which
thus leaves exposed tbe liber, termed "
Iber," The tree is then left to itself,
the cork hegius to grow again, while the sap
ia flowing in cousecjuence of the eiposure of
the liber. If a truuk left in this state sei
eral months be out down, in the aaolion
ting of cork will be found formed in tbe in
teriorof ihe "mother," at a variable di;
tanoe from the surface of the trunk. A
eilerior portion of tho ■■mother" i
!. and splits as the tree grows, and tb
interior portion (new cork, termed -fi'
male,") is developed. This " female
cork grows in the asme manner as th
■' male." that is, by tho addition of annual

Five numbers more of Tfie Crisih will clo^e

cannot End words strung enough to eipresa our
gratitude to our friends who have Itood by us so
laitbfully iu the IriaJs throogb which we have
passed. From Iha time we issued tho first num-
ber of our paper until tbe present hour, there
hu never passed a day tbat wo did not receive
aume evidence of Iho appreciatiuo of onr labors.
During tbe last six months onr subscription bas
more than doubled, and wo can now boost of Ibe
largest edition of any weekly English paper in
Ibis city; nnd aa largo o» some of them, includ-
ing their Dailies and Weeklies.

This is tbe more graliljing as we are compell-
ed to ran our paper ou its aubscriptiou alone,
and OS such il was of courae an experiment
The eipcrimtnl bos turned out an entire auccew,
andTilE Crisis is a permanent future. We de-
vole our whole limo to getting it up, so as to
make it fully worth tbe price we charge for it.—
It is wholly independent and untrammeled by
any interests or cliques uutsido of, or inside of,
the great Democratic family of tbe conntiy, lo
whoie suoc«a it is devoted.

Believing as we do, that tho country can oaly
be restored, nnd a cons lit uliooal government
maintained in ila purity by and through the suo.
eeis of Democratic men and Democratio mea»-
ares. we ate coos cien tie only laboring for tbe pre-
aecTuliua ot both — not merely in namo but iu
heart, soul and principle, A mere name is noth-
ing— tbo fruit is everything. Any political aspi-
rant may call himself a Democrat, a patriot, a
friend of tbe ConsLtulion, of tbe Union, ol Lil>-
erty, yet he may not understand the true
bania upon which all these rest, or he may do it
Irom mere design to get votes, and abandon oil
wbea enlraated wilb power or office.

We must (oat the liu by the fruii il bearB.
If Ihe fruit is wurtble^ the tree ia but an

A. My oDnvorsation with Mr. Lamb was

of a ooofidenlial character, and I do not
wbh to stnto it.

Tbo Judge sdvocato objected c witnesa
answering the question, on the gniunJ that
it would be hearsay evidence.

Major MoKlnstry sa'd ho would wilbdraw-
thn question.

The Judge Advocate said bo did net ob-
ject to lbo queslioo. and wished to have it
remain on tho record as it stood.

Slojor McKinatry— Tbo accused aubmita
that tho question that the witness ii a^ked
lo slnle is not a privileged qui^stioa, and
Ibut it ill not for the witness to decide
whether or not ho will answer it. Tho evi-
dence sought by the question is lo show the
position and interest of other wltnesaea in
holialf of the prosecution, who aro either
named at tbe foot of tho apooificalions or
may bo called nu witoesaes for tbe proseou-
tiou.

of your contempIaleJ nrrangemenls '

A, I did not stato fo la words.

Q, What did you state 7

A. I did not convey unytbing lo bira in
words on that subject.

Q. Did you convey meaning by writing
or otherwise 7

A. I did; nowIwiUeiplain, Mr. Lamb
and myself joined iu application to Major
McKinstry. usyuartermaster. to supply the
Government wilh u large amount of goods.
After we bad perfected our application, we
wi're dlHouasing on the probable amount of
profit wo would make on the contract if we
got it from Major SicKinsIfy, Aftei that
wB wore talking over tbo gossip of tbe town,
and this person's name was mentioned by
me. and 1 proposed lo Mr. Lamb to join
him Iu prei<eatiiig Ihia person a sum of
money. One day, whilo I waa st Major
MoKinstry's offino trying to get a oontraot
(for Mr. Lamb committed to me thn obtaio-
ing of the coatractl. Major MoKinstiy gatd
tome: "Before [ ffive tho order or con-

interested," and I handed it to him. I aUo
wentto Mr. Lamb, and told him what Major
McKiastry had said to luc ; and I aeid- to
bim, "Yon had bettor give mo all tho let
ters you bave." I took thorn and showed
tbom lo Major McKiiistry.

Sir—A'i n soldier, I write to you coa
ceniiog llie signs of the limes. Vfo loam
thot the true friends of Uie country aro
about to gat tho majority again whioh wo
think will have the toodonoy to bring tbia
war to n oloBii, _Tlio soldiers (as agencral
tUug) would loglad to hear of the clo^e of
this wor 60 that they could return to their
homes and reposo nrouud their firesldea
again in peace and quietude. And I, tot
one. think, without n doubt, Ibat if tho
doottine that baa held this Govornment to-
gether for seventy long years is brought to
bear upou the minds of thu people again,
that Ibis Government will advance in proa-
penty and peace, and be known as a naliou
of honor and trust ogaiu. We aro folly
satisfied wilh the new faugled doctrines of
the day tbat are sounded by tho trumpela
of l|,e augcla of darkness of the free negro
lovers of the liepnblican patty. Let mo
aak them whether their doctrine bss been
any benefit Iu this Government 1 Or whether
it will be any advantage lo the negro?
Any man who bus any reason about lUm,
would say— first ci.uaider tho expenses of
Ibis war, then say : can we send them out
of th* country and justify onrsolves, by
freeing them in that way T Hore is a ques-
tion for thought. Would tboso free negro
lovers say, free tbem. nnd make them equal
with the whites in this Government T—
Would Ibis suit Ihci mass of tho people of tho
North 7 Never. Then why have we heard
so much olflmoc on the freedom of the
blacks! I am led to beUeve that tho
'is of the Abolitica order aro dishonest
; we have heard their leaders apeak in
regard t.. certain articles iu the CousUtn-
-, Ihty bave said tbat some of those
arUcles were a covenont with death,
id fit for nothing else but hfU '. Horr can
moat men place confidence in such damn-
aliU defamera of an instrument of national
law that our forefathers made for the peo.
pi" of theao United States, end acknowl-
edged to be the best in the world f Aooth-
iBSon why I have no confidence in tkch
: they have told the soldiers that thia
was for the ConsUtulion and the Union
not to interfere with slavery where it
exists. Ia that true 7 Look at tbe editors
of the papers that lean toward free nt^u
liberty, and n thinking man cau judgo for

this amount : That it would be a good idea
to remove tbo head oEGoera, suoh oa MoClel-
lau and Halleck. and 30 on, and put John
C. Fremont at the bead of tho army. The
reason why, tvaa, that Gen. I.ee waa one of
the advootttea of slavery in tho South, and
John C. Fremont waa its opponent in the
North. Would they have eipressed auch
opinions in Ihe campaign, when Fremont
run for PreaidentI Did not the Deu;ootata

and Ilia Hopublioan presses and leadcra de-
nounced tho charge false I Let tbe render
otamiuo closely between truth and fahiehood
be can see clonriy how to direct hia ways
in limo to come. Other reasons could be
assigned by us to show tbo reader how tho
people hov,i been misled by tho free negro
society boys. Did cot the Demcoratio
Speakers and Domcorallo presses of the
North explain to Iho people at large tho ef-
fects of iutervection in Congress on the
subject of slavery and elsewhere, ationely ■*
That it would cause a war of the deop«Bt
magnitude that could bo iinaginable 7 lUvs
not these predictions como true 7 Bat,

men that they oalled Unioir. savers with be-

Dumoorats spoke ik.a truth, while Ibo aym-

The proclamnlion of emancipation, if lakon ti
mean what in leiina it auorfe, is on exeoutivi
decree, that oa the first day ul January oe.it, al
pcreana held as slaves, wilbin aucb Stales or par

I'be peraouB who are the lublecls of Ihia pro

rcapective State.i ia which Ibey reside, enaeled
by Statu authority, as clear and untjuestioaaUe.
iiadci our syetein of gorernmeut, as any law
passed by any State oa any aubj..ct.

Thia proclumalion, Ibon, by an uieculire de
cree, proposes lu repel and annul valid Slaie laws
wbicb regiilulo Ibe domestic relations of their
people. Much ia the mode ot operolioo of Ibo

The ne.xl observable cbaroctecistie ia, that tbii
executive decree hulda out thia proposed repeal
of State laiv« as a Ihroulened vcaalii/ far Ibe coo'
linuuoco of a govering majority ot ihe people ot
each Slate, or part of a Slule. in rebellion against
Ibe Uuiled States. So that the President hereby
BBtumcH to hioiaeltthe power to denouace it na a
puaithmeot againsi tbe eulire people of a Slate,
that Iho valid laws of that Stale, which regulate
the domestic coaditiooof ita iohabllaula, aball
become aull and void, at u ceilaio future dale,
by reason of Iho criminal conduct of a govemiiijj
majority of il* people.

This penalty, however, il should be observed,
is nul to be iaQicted oa those peiioDs who bare
been guilty of treason, Tbe freedom of
plnveB wns already provided for by the act of
Cougres.*, recited in a aubsequcat part of the
praclamalioa, Itis not, therefore, as a puaiih
inent of guilty persooa, that Ibu commander-in-
chief decreeii the freedom ot elavea. 11 ia upon
Iho slaves of loyal persooa, or of thoae who, from
their tender years, or other disability, cannot be
cither diiloyaior otherwise, that the pruclama-
lion is lo operate, if atnlli and it ia to operate
to t'et them ftce, in apiteofthe volid laws of
their States, because a mnjotily of tbe legal
voterado noleend Jteprcaeatatircs to Cungrtaa.
Now it i] easy to underBtanil boiv persons held
to Eorcice LDuder tbe lawa of these States, and
boK' the army aud Davy nuder the orders of the
Preaident, may ovetturu these valid laws ol the
Stales, just Bsil in easy I o 1 magi ae that any la iv
may be zialntai by fihyiUal forte. But 1 do not
understand it to bu the purpose of the President
iecite a part of the labBbitauta uf tho United
States to rise in insurrectioo agaisal valid laws ;
but that, by virtue ot £omo power which he poj^
propoaea to nniiul Ibuso lawa, so that
tbey are do lunger to have aay opeiOtioo.

Under the Constitulioo and laws ol Ihe United

The necessary result of this inlerptutation of
Ibe Conslilulion is, that, in time of war, tbe Pros.
ident has any and all power whiob he may deem
' neceiiury to exercise, lo subdue the enemy ;
id thut every private and persoaal right of la-
dividual security agiilnat mere executive coairol,
ind every right reserved lo Ihe States or the peo-
ple, rests merely upon executive diaerelion.

But the military power ol tbe President in de-
rived loluly from Ibo Cuostitutloo; and it is as
tulQeiently defined there as bis purely civil poiver.
These are il« words: ■' Tbe President shall be
Camiuunder-in<Cblef ot Ibe army and navy of
the Uniled Slates, ami of Ihemilitiaof thu sever-
al States, whea culled into tho actusi service of

nt tho inomont (in tho opinion of llic Presi-
dent) no diLDger of nu early secession, bo-
youd South Catolioa. the President, in ro-
ily lo my arguments lor immediately rein-
'oroing fori Moultrie and sending a garri-
ion to Port Sumtor, said:

"The time baa not arrived fur doinyao; that
be should wait the octinn of Ibo Convention ol
South Carolina, in the expeclatlon Ibalacommia-
ivoald bo appointed and acot to negotiate

joad a rein lore em eat aud telegraph the corn-
ling officer(Major Anderson) of Fort Moul-
trie to bold the fiir^ (Mnullrie and Sumter)

Ami tbe Secretary, with nuiinatioiiicddcd:
"We bavonveEselof war(lhB Brooklyn) held
readineji nt NurfoUi, and he would then send
reo hundred men in her from Port Jlooroe to
CbarlealoD."

To which I replied, first, that io many
)u could not be withdrawn from that gftr-
lon. but could bo taken from Now York.
Nest, that it would then bo loo lata, as the
South Carolina Commissioners would havo
tho gamo in their hands by first ui^ing and
then culling the wires; that a.s there v/aa
not a Boiaier in Fort SumtoT any handful of
armed aoceasionistii might seize and occupy
it, dco.

Hero the remark may bo pcroiiiied that if
tho Seorotiiry's ibroo liundred men had then,
or soma time later, been sent lo Forts SIoul-
Irlo nnd Sumtor, both would uow Imvo been
in tho pusseaaion of tbe United Stalea, and
not a buttery below tliom could have been
ereotod by tba socesBionials ; oonaaqucutly
tho access to thoso forts from tbe sea would
now (tho end of Mnrob) bu unnbitructed

there was groat danger that ho might bo or-

which, in that case, would be inevitable.

But, before uny resolution was taken, tho

another Commidfioocr from South Carolina
arrived, causing further delay. When this
had passed away. Secretaries Holt am'

At ihattinie (late iu Jauuary) I have but

Early in January I rcuoived, as has been
seen, my aolioitiitions lo be allowed to re-
Inforoo Port Piokens, but a good deal of
limQ was lost In vacillations. Firjt, tho
President '■ thought if no movemont is made
by tho United States, Fort MoRao will
probably not bo occupied nor Fort Piokens
altftokoil. In ooio of movomonia by tho
United States, which will doubtless bo made
known by tbe wires, there will bo corroa-
pondlng lioiil movements, and the attempt
to reintoroo will be useless.^*- (Qaotatiouj

od whether it would be ,.i,fe lo aend roin-
forcementa ui an onnrmed Me.-imer, and tho
want, as usual, of a .suilablo naval vessel-
the Brooklyn being long b"ld in reserve at
Norfolk for somo purpoei, unknown to luo.
Finally, after I bad kept a body of Ihreo
hundred recruits in Now York harbor ready
for somo time— and they would bavo been
suBioient lo reinforce temporarily Fort
Pickens and to occupy Fort McHae ako-
the 1 resident, about January 18, pormilted
that tho aloop.of-war Brooklyn should Inko
aaiQglo company, ninety men, from Fort
Monroe, Hampton Roads, and roinforco
Lieutenant Slemmor, in Fort Pictene, but
wiibout a aurploa man for tho neighboring
Fort MoBao. ^ **

The Brooklyn, with Capt. Vogdes' com-
pany alone, left tho Chosapeako for Fort
Piokene about Jauuary 22, and, on the SDth
1 resident Buchanan, having onlored Into a

[That joint note ! never saw until March
~5. but supposed the nrmistloe was conse-
quent upon the meeling of the Peace Con-
vention at WaahiugtON, and waa uudorstood
to lermioale with it.]

Hearing, however, of tbo most active
preparations for hoatilltiea on tbo part of
the aeceders at Ponsocola, by the erection
of new batloriea and arming Fort Mcllae —
that had not a gun mounted when it waa

dated March 13, to Capt. Vogdes, was

Greeley ou Aiiiiileniuatlon of
Races.

Greeley, in the Irili'ine. devotes a column
in his odilorial page to Ibo advocacy of
amalgamation.

He aaya none of us can tell what kind of
blood we havo in our veins, and be saggesls
that Brooks, of the Eiprtii, has a taint of
the negro from one of his ancestors- It is
equally probable that Greeley is a descen-
dant of an African albino. He says we are
all at best a mixed race, consisting of Sax-
on, Cell, Norman and Scandinavian. Why,
tbon. object to amalgamation with tbe ne-
gro 7 He might as well ask, why object to
amalgamation with tho Hottentots or the
African gorillas ? Saions. Celts, Normans
and Scandinavians are all white men — vari-
eties of Ihe same Cauoassian stock. Tbe
negro is as dislinot aa the donkey is fioin
tbe Arabian horso. Greeley, indeed, holds
that Iho black man is tbe sunerior race of a
purer stream, and that tho wnito race of the
United Statics are only " bkoched '■ blsokjs,
degenerated by clrilkation from the purity
ol ibe original blood. The beastly, filUiy
proposition of Greeley to amalgamate vriCb,
tbo nlacka and produce a dolerior a ted hybrid
race, like the races of South America,, Cen-
tral America aud Moiicc. cannot foil to ex-
cite the deep disgast of every white man'
who is not completely besotted by fanatic-
ism. The natural instincts of the while
race and tho aentiraent of the whole coun-
try revolt against it. Such is the antipathy
of tbe white men of Illinois to the negro
that Mr. Stanton has been induced to revoke
bii order sending the contrabands (o that
Slate. In tho French Revolution the Ja-
cobins sot up for worship iu tbo Cathedral
of \olro Dame a naked ooi^rlesuu. whom
they called the Goddess of livason. Gree-
ley proposes to act up for adoration a nude,
grca.sy nugross as the niniit-hty goddess of

nah river to destroy a seolion of the railroad
between Savannah and Cborloston, did not
succeed. Tbougli they drove the Confado-
rates some short dlstouoo in the direolion of

of our men, in killed and wounded, and the
eipedilion returned. This wholo Port Royal
and Hilton Head campaign bas, so far, been
of little ounsi^juenco to na, especially the
negro portion of it. It has coal its millions
and tho iuccmo is very amull. Cotton and ne-

ber. 1S62, and ending on the lib of March,
18C3, in place of Hon. Joseph A. Wright,
holds Ibo Ecat by Ihe appointment
of Governor Morton, and also a Senator for
tho full tcrmof 9TI years, commenoing at
the last nameil date.

It will he remembered that Governor
Wright now holds tho plnce, bncauso an
Abolition majority in Ihe United States
Senate eipoUed Mr. Biight for no other
reason in tho world except that be was a

Under this view of tho case, we sobmit te

tho man, unjaslly turned out, to his old

would be a joat retribution. He was elected

id emmlssavies has been laboring for more
than 30 years to nholitioQize the North.
And who knows but that such a supposed
boundary lino between a North und Sooth
might be n part of her ulterior purposes,
that frou governments might thereby be so
weukenod as to be easily oitingulshod 1
United, this government is invincible, hut
divided, and with Canada on the North ne
It be unable lo compete with great nnd
powerful adversoriea. Today thero ia ot-
ooustemaliou nt Woahiogton. There
0 diaunioniam in the West. Tho East
is afraid of tho greot Misaisaippi valley.
Tuey ere afraid of a great consolidation
in the WcBt. Tbi'y all want our food and
lOtlive without It. Tbe Northeastond
tho South and England and Fruuce ato as
for our ftod 03 they are for their
itenoc. Without us New England
could not exist six months end would dwin-
dle into a 6ah market.

We may well congtutulate the Dumoc-
icy upon the victoriea thoy have achieved
I the lost eh'cliou.

Gov. Medery took bin seat umidst the
most nipturous apnlauao. And duriog the
'hole progroSB of his speech wiu most fer-
eutly applauded.
The meeting was then Huooussively ad-
dressed by Messrs MoKinney. Shelby and
Spence in very excellent and eloquent ad-
' esaes. Bat apace will not admit us to
ve even a synopaia o( their spceohos.
The following rcaolutiona woro thou un-
limoHjly adopted :

The IndisuB bavo not given us nay sen-
BBtiou ilorns of news for Bome v.oeks— Ihal
is. Iheio have been no battles, and no fur-
ther barbarous mnrdera- The torco got in
lo tho field under Gov. SlDLKV.with compa-
nie;i at various exposed points, have been
Bufficieut lo deter tho eaviiJos from Ihe
proBocutioa of their bloody villniniea, Af-
ter the second battle, eimo weeks ago, some

is tho ndvoentonf delay and leniency lo-
ward the savages.

The whole course of the Gotcrnownt and
its BCOrcdited represenlntite. Gen. Pope,
provo thatlhoy bavo as inadequate ooncap-
tioDB of our " Indian troubles" as they bad
of tho natare of our Government and of
thooharncter of Ibo people Snuth. When

I. Pope IirBt got hero ho bad sufficient

ly-lhrte hundred horset have been

bought, and are now in their stalls ot Fort

illiog— besides mules and WDgona in de-
lightful profusion. He issued proposals for
liasary supplie?, immense enough for
Army of tho Potomac, " Tho De-
lenl cut down the latter GO per oanl.
Bnt Ibe horses, wagons, Wiaoouain and
Iroopa were bore — lu some part of Ihc
State, although not engaged in any of the
three battles fought — when it waa discover-
ed that effbrla were making lo pcoauro the
subjtilution of some moto interested and
diaoreet commanding officer for Pope. At
once the dispatch goea over the wires that
tho Indian war is, in effeot, orcr. If it is
what is to bo done with tho borjes,
wagons, mulea. store?. &o. The Iowa
troops st-arted dowa the river for Cairo a
few days ago. If the wnr is over there

- 'cry little use for tho General or bis
vast prepuralionfl— for It waa got over by
home troops without a dollar's aid from the
General Govcrotnent.

Tho war is only over in tbo superficial
inse that there has been no fighting for n
month. Aft^rGov. Sibley got the prisooora
taken by the Indians released, he started in

I Yellow Medicine, be discovered that
bis Commissary bad not aocurntely provided

ItBi^Awrtius CouKTv. Omo, i
November I, 18K, J
Gov. Mui-AUY— Dear 5ir.-— The olaofloa-.r-
in Ohio ia over, and tho rcsolt is snoh fta ,-
to cheer tbe heart of every lover ol lie.
ConHtitulion Ihat our fathers gave us. Th»-
election has decided two things "so plainly-,
that 0^ wayfaring man, tliough a fool, aeed.-

Iher

It has decided that ibe freemen of Ohio-
ire uot Killing lo potoiit the President (or
lay oilier man) to trnmpio their oonstitn-
liona! liberty under his military heel, under
the plausible plea of " war necessity," and
to usurp lo himself all the powere of cooh.
denartment of the Government— Le^'islative,
Judicial nnd Eiooutive.

As B legislature, be has enacted a lav ,
deolaring "disloyal conduct"' to be a oiim) ,
and baa Busponded the conslituiional rig^ ,t
of Ihe citizen (o a writ of /lut-oi Com jj.
He anJtes himself jiidgo lo try the 0801 jgo
by appointing a military oo'nmifaioQ aa tia
deputy to ait in his place, aud then ho exo-
outea the judgment of this military * j^urt
hy other doputiea of hia own appolnli aienl.

The peopio holievothat Washiuglof , gave
them good advice when ho said in hia Faro-
-•ell Address that, "If the distribi , Hon of
lie coustilutiona! powers bo in any partio-
lar wrong, let it be corrooted by aa amend-
lent in tbo way in which the Cut ililution
directs- Bnt let there be no rt ,augo by
uiurpalion. tor though this iu oaf , iustanoo
may bo the laatrument of good, ii jj the
oostomary weapon by which iriio govern-
nionta ore destroyed." Ho saidl, "Itshould.
inepiro caution in those intruil e^l with i(a
adminiatration to confine thomsolres within
their respective eenUitudcnual ivfieres,
avoiding in tbe oiereiso of tJjo po wore of
one depnrtoieut to encroach u]>on anol/ltr.
Tbo spirit of encrooohmoat tenda to eowol-
dale tho powers of .ill the departments in,
mt, and thus to create, whutover tho formt
of government, a real deapotiaio."

He further said : " Tbo love ol ptuer an*
pro&ODesa to abmt it. is eutiioient to aatisfy
us of this poaition. Tho neoerai^ of ro .
ciprooul chcthi in tbe eaeroise of politici d
power, by dividing it into diffcrtnt dopositJ j.
riea and constituting e<ich the guard) an
agalnat inaaiion by the other, has beon ot in-

■d by oipeiimenta ancient ajid modern .'■

Could Iho President expect tho pM ,ple,
who had learned to reveru Waabinf:U in as
■■thoFutberof biaCoiintry," tulethij fare-
well warning go unbocdej and place oonfi-
deuce in or givo support to n PTesidEfnt who
tho powers of nil tho o^.her da-
parlmeutd of tbe government, oud carried
this country far nu tbo road to naa roby.

They feared if ihey voted tha aboUlion
ticket they would thus perpetunlo, whatever
the form of government, a ronl 0 ospotlsm.

The people have a Conslitutien, end they
demand il* protection aud pr<s' rvntloa.

The other thing alluded to d.bove as deal-
d«d by Iho election is, that tho free whito
nett do not intend lo permit Obio lobe over-
run by negroes while bor white men ata
iway in the army.

I think tho Legislflturo, whiob refused to
pass tho law last winter putiHoned for by so
largo a number of legal witers of the State,
jannot fail to underBtiina this caU. from the
people, and at their adjuoraecl soMion roctify
rholr uealeot of doty by paoijing said law at
their eariieat opportunity. They aeud not
put in tho plea thet a lap to keip negroes
out of Ohio would violat., the Constitution.
Tbe people think when tha President and
Governor bavo assumed legislative power to
enact laws to prevent whito Amerioan oiii-
from galug from ono county in their
to another, on buiinea:. wiihoatn pass
from th"Ir rnaKer. nnd have deprived them
of liberty by seuding his frtt "man kutch-
ers" aftertheai and dragging them to prison
" nitliout prooBBsof law," that Iho Ln^^islo-
ture ahould hboiv "baeUbono" tceugh lo
pass tbli one law for tbe proloclioa of vhUa

Let petltionB for thU parposo bo again
circulated among tho poupte- There aro
Sut few men in Ilia State who would uot ai^jn

SBStlon of " A Gitlien of NorlhwesUrn

Again, General Scott naserts, in tbo face of
Ibeie facta. Chat the President refueed to allow
any attempt tn be made— to reinfurce Port Sum-
ter—becauae be was holding negotiations with
tbe South Carolina CommiuiDnersi And still
aJn, tbat " nlrerwards Seorotnry Holt and luy-
II endeavored, in vain, to obtaiu a sbipof-war
for the purpose, und were Guilly obliged to em-
-thy the passeDgor ateamer ' Star of the Weal.' "
VIII it be believed that the lubslitmion of the
Star of Ihe Weal" for the powerful warsleam-
r Brooklyn, ol which he now c/iiuplains. was by
be udvico of General Scott himsetft I iiavo
ever beard this doubted unlit I read IbeBtale-

At tho interview already referred to between
tho General and myaelf, ou Ibo evening of Mon-
day, the lat of December, I suggested to biui
that, although I had not received the South Caro-
lina Commissioners la their eScial capacity, bul

than forty-eight boura. He promptly concurred
in tbii suggestion as gentlemanly and proper, and
the ordtrs were nottraneniilted to tha Bmoklji
on that eveolog. My anticipations were correcl
for ou tbe morning of the Sd January I roceivei
their ioauleot note, and sent it back to tbom. Ii

Actotdingly the " Star of the West " wai selected

From Ibo Hsrttot,! Tlmrl

A Loiipr of Dr. Franldin
CoDStllutiou— War.

Wo have received from o friend in Nen
Haven n letter written thrao-quartors oft
century ogo, by Benjamin Franklin to hii
sister, and whiob will he found from its al
lusions to tho Constitutiou (then just per
feoted) OS well aa to tho auhject of war ane
its evils, to possess a peculiar interest at
the profent time. This letter is not to bo
found in the published worts of Franklin,
and wo doubt if it has ever been seen by
many persons, at least of tho present day.
Although the dale is obliterated, it i^ evident
from the writer's allusion to the Convention
which ■■finished 00 the 17th instant," Ihnt
written in September, 1787, immedi-
ately after the Convention which frnuied the
Constitution of Ihe United States.

Tho Convention, he soys, had difficulty
I forming n bond of union that should
acoommodiiU- all tho different interests
nnd viowa"— tbo institution of negro "slave-
ry" being one of tbe prominent subjeota of
this difficulty then. But he adds, "We
have, however, done our best, and it must
take ils ohance." In that masterpiece of
human wisdom applied to practical stalos-
niauship, the spirit of its framcrs was a
spirit of tolerance, friendship, justice ond
compromise. It aimed to accommodulo all
the different interests and views ; nnd It did
this in tho only practical manner by which
a friendly, true and prosperous Union could
be formed— by admitting the equal ri-'bls
of each and all of tho Statej, jealously
guarding and preserving tbe rights of each
indivldoal State, delegating only limited and
clearly defined powers to Ihe Federal Gov-
ernment thuB created by flio States, and oh-
aervingtbo rule of strict and entire justice
to all interests ond sections.

The noble instrument thus formed by the
highest human wisdom, and which has re-
mained a tower of strength to the glorious
Union and e subject of wonder and admira-
Ibe world, is now being tested by tbe
'tordeal to whiob itconld be aubjeot-
ed. This is its tcial hour. Lot us hope
that it may bo saved— that it may pni-s
(Krough this furnace, "seven times heated "
hout being devoured in tbo flames. Up-
Iho prosorvalioQ now depends our oun-
tiuiied Hjiatencoua a Republic. Few- too
few, wo fear- sooin to icaliae the imminent
ohoraoter of the danger by which our coun-
try is threatened, or to be aware of tbo pro-
gress which is making towards another and

more centralized form of Government,

Among tbo worst signs of tbe times is tbe

absence of an adequate general eipression

of sentiment in tho so called free Slates lo

est ilila general progress, nnd preserve

lular liberty.

lad tho spirit and tearfhiugs of Iho Con-
stitution, and the patriot sages "Fho framed
it, been better heeded in our day, these
troubles would not hovocome upon us. Wo
should have been a. peaceful, united, great
and invinoiblo nation among Iho Powers of
the earth. The seotiuual, " geographical "
spirit of pstly, ngainst which VVaahiugtan

)f Old Knox, colebmted the late glorious

meeting in this oitynndheariogEpeecbesbv
Hon. C. L. Vallendigham and Hon. John
O Noill, who kindly accepted special invita-
tions for the occasion, Tho weather was
unfavorable, being cold and sleety, und par-
ticularly uncomfortable for anoutiljormoet-
iQg, but, uotwilhstanding, the Democracy
of the country camo in nnmhors too great
for the capacity of the largo court room ot
nny hall ia town; so th" mooting was held
in the open nir.iu front of tho marketliouse,
Uncomfottftblc, Ihough it was, tbe people
endured the esposuro without flinobing, they
forgot the inclemency of tho weatTier in
their desire to see and hoar their distin-
guished orators, their hearts wurmcd and
their voices responded in loud cheers to tho
uoble and patriotic sentiments addressed to
Ihem, and Ihey counted the bud wtiither as
nothing compared lo tho Immense frofii and
pleasure which tbey derived from tbe
speeches of Vallandigham and O'Neill. A
number cf Demooratic ladies, afoot and in
carriages, graced the asecmblago with their

Vallandigham was Inlrodi
ce, and wosreccived with tremendous
applause. He t-poko from 1 o'olook lill four,
during all of which lime Le was listened to
raoat earnest attention, nnd very fre-
. itly interrupted with tbo Learliest ao-
clamalions, His audience would haie beard
bim speak for a whole day with tbe greatest
„lon..,,e. Ui3 speech was certainly tbe
and boat ever delivered in ibis city,
'n who have heard many of the most
t speakers in tbe Uniou declare Mr.
Vnilaiidigham equal if not superior to any
Tho speech from beginning lo
oharac I eristic of tho statesman, the
patriot nnd the Christian. It comprehend-
ed the situation and crisis of our affairs.
Tho course and tendency of events were
well told, and the condition of tho country
truly depicted. The designs ot thofaolioi
demagogues, couapiring fanatics nnd ui
faithful pohlic men, who now unfortunately
■it iu the high places of power and trust,
were laid bare nnd reprobated with crusbin(
truth, reason and common sense. Wouk
that every honest and really iiatriotio cilizer
were to hear and hoed Mr. Vallaudigham"i
words of truth and wisdom ; tbe basi
sohomes of wicked mou would aoou bo ei-
ploded or frustrated, Ibeir authora punished
or ftt least deprived of power to ruin, and
the conntry restored to pence, harmony and
proaperity, Mr. Vallandigham '-h speech
also abounded with opposite bistorioal al-
lusions and illustrations, apt political phil-
osophy, caustic sarcasm, pointed wit, oud
good things generally. It was an e.ioellont
tntelloclual treat, such as lives freshly and
fondly in the memory. The Democracy
present appreciated its orccUeuce— in fact
thoy were rapturously delighted with it. as
their pleased oountouanocs ond frequent
plaudits plainly showed. They ni" ■' Val-
fandighnmera " now if they wore nut before.
Wc cannot be mistakan in saying that with
tbe Demooracy of this county Iilr. Vailan-
digham's popularity is unbounded. At the
close of bis speech they voted anatiiinuusly
without previous arrangement, in favor of
Mr. V. for U. S. Senator, In place of Bon.
Wade, who is tho declared choice of tho
Abolitionists of this oonnty. And if they
could, they would make him Governor of
"hio, or President of tho United Slates.
.Some few Hopublicaus who had tho fair-
ies or curiosity to listen to him, admitlod
that he bad been grossly misrepresented by
tbe Abolition papors. And even some few
Demootnts, whoae minds had been poisoned
against bim by the same vile means, were
very agreeably disappointed by tho eourogo-
("IS and truly patriotic devotion to the Union
id tho Coustitutioii which ho evinced in
S apeech. Givo Mr. Vallimdlgham a fail
bearing, and donbls and prejudices concern-
itig bim will aoou bo dispelled.
After Mr, Vallandigham bud concluded,
r. O'NeiU, ourncitCcnareasmin by u ma-
jority of a,OCt, was introduced and received
wilh three cheers. Not wishing Iu detain

himself as a preacher and unuiorried— and
thereby induced a sisUr to Mojor Dayton lo

ne was no preacher, and has a wife and two

jor Dayton, hearing of tbedisgraoe inflicted
upon his once happy family, aud wiilst Buf-
fering the agony which a high-minded gen-
tlomou must feel under such oiroumstanoes
was thus still further insulted by Major
Phelps coming into his tent at Pi. Pleasant
nnd extending his hand ns a friend ; Major
Dayton at once resenlcd tbo insult, but the
other escaped, and mounting his horso lied

Tbob.tter of Ei-Prosident IlggiiASAN to
thi' National InUUigcneer will bo found in
our popes Ibis week. It is 0 oomptoto ei-
tinguiaher of the letter of Gen. Soott
which we publisbed a week ago. We thought
before and wo aro now mora than ever coo-
vjnoed, that Ihe letter of Gen. ScOTT, iu
which Mr. BoctlASAN wiia implicated, was
f,>rced from him by tho Ropublioana as a
cover of his letter to Mr. Sewabjj in 1861,
brought to light by John Van Bubem, and
publiabod in Tun CniBia two weeks ogo.
That little letter, short aa It nai>, though
full of important auggesliona. worried tlio
Republicana terribly, aud they feitos though
Bomolhing waa neceesary to break Its ef-
fect. Our readers now have tbo whole
thing before thorn. These eipositioos do
not place Mr, BuoriANAH'a Beorttaiy of
War, Judge Uolt, in a very enviable light,
but that is hia business.

In connection with this, and bearing
strongly upon the whole oonlroveray, we
mblisb tbo spooob of Got. Mokeubaj),
(see laBt page.) af Kentucky, raoenlly
1 England, and no nsk every caodi'd reader,
rhy Mr. BucnAKAN should b'l blamed foi
ol plunging the country into oivil war
iheu up to tbo very close of his AdminiS'
tratioo, there were pcoposilione of eettle-
moot before tlie country, nnd a Peaoe Con-
gress in session at the Capitol of the nation,
called by Virginia and responded to by all
Northern and border States, Ohio had hei
Dulegatoa in that Convention, officially op-
and paid out of tlie State Treasury
for their attendance.

More than this, Mr. Skwabo, who hod
been designated aa the Prime MiniiUr of
Mr. Li KuOL-v'ti Ad mini strati on, talked ptm
every body, and boasted how soon 1
uld settle tho whole of our troublea whe
look oflioo, Thia, too, was the tono of
all the Hepoblican papora, and we
itpU hon' we wore denounoed aa an enemy
; coonlry beoiuse we predioted n civil
f that P&aco Congress foiled to inoug-
urstoa snttleueut.

In this state of the ouee, what exoose, or
hat apology would there bavo been for Mr>
BucUANAK, bad he set the ball of civil war in
motion, and left it as a legacy for Mr. Litt-
OOLN 1 To this hour wo would have haep
told, that had Mr. Bdcuanan waited until
Mr. LiNOOLN had the reins in his band, wo
lid easily have escaped tear and all its
ills and horrors. And who oould have sold
my to those doclarations, for il waa the
very geutral opinion of all porlioe at that
that it could bo avoided, and tho Union
saved on certain conditions, and those oon-
ditions, realty nothing more than securing
10 tbo South the rights and privileges which
they had enjoyed from tho first inslalation
of Iho United Staiea Constitution, vis ; their
equal rights iu tho Union, as co-ordiaate
Stales, and In tho Territories acquired by
thecummon blood undtreasiireof tbo nation.
While thero was a hope of settling oar
troublea, and avoiding thu horrors of a falri-
oidal war, un enoh a basis, no man. not an
enemy of his country at heart, or a madman
u poUtics. would have dared precede the^e
fforla with a war luovomont. Everybody
laa now see this, though It was not so plain

Nevor since the restoration of sight to

have we read of any thing equal lo the fol-

Up to this hour tho d'ammercin' has
bored us hard an its abilities would pern
iilslahi tbo abominahle acts of Ihe Gi
orumeut, which it now euaa si> clearly i
wrong — not simply wrong, but an attempt
lo strike down our libortlea and erect upon
country's ruins the wor^t and basest
of tyranny, We'.rojoioo that the Coif
merciat has sounded tbe olatm among its ICu-
publican readers. Bat they may naiurally
ik why (hey were not told of this before
thoy cast their votes to sustain this hellish
despotism? Why let them disgi
solves before giving tho warning ! Tbn
readers of tho Commercial and the Commer
c'ml itself mast aetlle this between them
selves. As regarda the /ads — they arc uo
a matter of dispute. If theso Republican!
would pay a IKtIo more attention to what
tbe Democratic papers tell (bem, tbey might

ortifying career.

A TruL' Ghost Story.

A triend of mine, a medical roan, was on
a fishing expeditioB with an old college ao-
qnaiDtance, army forgfou. nhom ho bad
dot met for many year?, from bin hRvin,^
been in India with his regiment. M'Donald,
the army surceon, was n thorough High-
lander, and sliebtty tinned with what is
ealicd the superstilion of his countrymen,
and at (ho time I speak of was liable lo
aether depressed spirits from an unsound
Iher. His nulivo air was, however, rapidly
renewing hie youth; and when he and his
old friend {lacod along the banks of the
fibbing Btream in a luiiL-iy part of Argylo
shire, and sent their lines likn airy goisa-
njers over the pools, and toached tlio water
over a salmon's nose. »o temptingly that
the heat priiicipl,-d and wisest fish could
DOtri'sirtt the bite, M'Donald hud apparently
FSgnined all hia buoyaney of spirit. Tbey
had been fibbing t"getbbr for about a week
with great sucoear, when M'Donald propoa-
ti to pay a visit to a family bo iTas ac-
q^ialnled with, whioh would separnlo him
from his friend for some days. But when-
tVi^r ho spoko of thuir iiiltndcd sepnraiion,
be HBuk down inio his old gli>omy «lati', at

his epitifs, and compelled hifntelf to ei«r>

oiBO culm judgment. Slrainiug his ejes to

discover anything, he plainly siiw at last a

conviction then seiwd bim, which hi,

d not resist, that his friend Sl'Donald

on a obair besido hiai, and atruok a

light. No while ohjeot could be seen. Tbo

But the match was hardly extinguished

when louder than over, tho Bume uncsclbly

by Ihe same lionible whirr-r-r. which

made hia teeth chatter with terrible rapid-

to shout at the top of bis voion for the ebep

herd, aud having done so, ho dlveil bis head

the destiny of thirty millions of peopl", thai
if be said that the goaranteu should be made
lud would make it, there would be no diflj-
oulty in carryini; out any programmn that
li^ht he adopted.
He said that he was willinn lo give a con-

not bo molested in any way, directly or in-
directly, in tho States, that he wna willing
'j> go further, nnd gi^e a guarauleo that it

that bu was elioted by n party which bad
idu thai a portion of its platform, and he
:>uld consider that bo was betraying tbat

□ose, lo allow slavery lo bo eitondod in

thatthere vr,a not an acre of territory b^Ioug-
iug to Ihe United States, where the fo.it uf
' ' over Iread, tbat there wero
natural laws which would forbid slavery
goiog into Now Mexico, n mountainous re-
* lu, and tho colder regions of the North,
il tbat it was utterly impossible tbat ala-
ry could ever extend there, und we denied
that a common goveruuent bad power to

an empty prohibition when the laws of

[tlour, bear.] That ho wuived by saying
tbat he wtks committed on ibis subject.
Then it was that 1 replied to him. "Mr.

id to him, *' with all Itio jjshI and energy
of which I waB master. J[ endeavored lo

COi. Meoaiiy — Dear Sir: Suppoiiog
that a fow facts iu regard to tho manner io

place and Kansas City, would be of some
interest to you aud to the readers of The
icioso you the following- If they
lUgh to stamp tho name of Re-
publican with Infamy aud disgrace, it is be-
oauee that party haa long aince fallen so
the estimate of public opinion, that
further odium can not reach it. Now for the
facts : A fp)w days before tho election was
off, there were picket guard*
placed on nil Ihe thoroughfares leading into
Kaosni, City, and every man or woman who
the city after that was aubjeoted to
of procuringapaas, nnd,
very often, country people going into tbe
place, were subjected to insult and oonaid-
rablo trouhlo before they could get a pass ;
E courao it aproad through tho country lite
ild-fire, and the consequence was, country
people remained at home, with the eicep-
"ou of the nt^-g^r locers, ond a fow others
hose buainesa compelled them to visit the
place; tbo buainesa of the city waa put at
a perfect stand still, and the oUu^bub were
dejected and restive. But yesterday tho
guard was dijoontinued. and today overy-
Uiing presents a very lively appearance. —
What the object was In putting a guard
around the city no one knew except the
choaen few. But to-day every one waa on-
lightened upon the subject: the Provost
Uarshal boasted that It waa done to keep
eonntry Demoerata (bo calls them aeoes-
sioniats) at home, and from voting.

I will now refer to the outrages commit-
ted at Weatport ; on the day of the election
there waa a military force sent from Kansas
City to puroll the oitlzena of that place.
Among the force Iherc was a number
who beguu. Immediately on their arrival,

Tho conscientious Abolitionist lives in ideality,
be ia tt theorist, and builds hii tbeory on a pre-
sumption, which, being (ilae in lact, bis reason-
ing— however logical— leads bim to falae conclu-
iiona. Beosiumestbatallmen, Whites, Negroes,

because it is tbe efFumn of a great mind, tbe lat-
ter be feels at liberty to doubt, because it bos not
yet been cbrislened io the world of letters. Jef-
ferioD, be can prove, declared that alt meo were
created equal, nnd without stopping to consider
the coonectioDs with which Ibetc words were
writteD — or tbe argumeols agaicst which tbey
uero directed— he a9suDiea(foT be isa mao of
assumption) that JetTerton intended to eay, not
only that all men wore created erjual, or equals,
hot that they aru now aad forever have beea so,
Ue kaoivs this to have been the authors intention,
becau'u that conatmctiou auita his deairea. For
tbe came reason be knows that Adnm was the
progenitor ol all the different races of men, no
ujatler where Caia may have gat liis wife, ot
what learned Hefatews. who econt Ibn idea of a
common origin, may say of this portion of their

Eion 19 infilably correct. Ha readd aod argues,

Tbe circumstances which eurround a peopli
and the knowu facts onder which declarations ai
made, havo uiuch to do io determioiog their aij^
Eilication, coosequenlly writers leave much for
their readera to supply ; and, aa language is but
tbe harbinger ol thouglit, when it ia received as
tbe writer lateoda it to be received, be baa gain,

DeclaiatioQ of lodependencc, the political .

riority of blood. This distinction our rebellious
ancestors denied, and, to strike it with force, de-
clared their reaialaoce in tbe broad and sweping
langaage— " That all men were created equal."
Tbey gave force to their declaration by making it
geceraJ, but the weUknowD fact) which
ed them vindicated ItaeigniGcatiou. Tbey meaot
the equality of the race for which they spoke and
acted; for at the very moment tbo declaration
paaaed their utteroocu, ,

Instincts are original; they comu with the bo*

Tbo Church Journal of this week furai&h-
es us witb tbe foUowiDg extraordinary epi
sode in tbe prooetdiuga of tbe Genera'
(Episcopal) Convention rooontly in aeasioc
in Cinoiimati. It lets in a flood of liglit up-
on the peculiar doings of tbe House of Bish-
ops— a bodj- wbose proceedings, by the nay,
rarely get before tbe public, oioept by ncoi-
dent:

From mr Cboidi JouraaL
Those who were present at tbe concluding re-
ligions services ot tbo General Convention on
Friday lost could not bnt have noticed that tbe
venerable proceasion of tho Right Hevetend Fath-
ers was not, OS oa tbe opening day of tbe session,
beaded by tbe tuaior Biabop present, the Biahop
of Vermont. Tbey could not but have uuticed
also, that the neat iu the crown of tbe apsis was
left vacaat for Mm, and that be eutered tbe chan-
cel from tbe racriatyjust after the reading of the
Sastoral letter wan concluded by Ihe Biahop of
ihio. It ia our duty to explain a circumstance
which evidently had some very decided meaning
— a meaoitig that was inteoded to be manifest to
all.

At the last General Convention, no Poatoral
Letter was issued, owing lo difficulties in regard
ts tho Bishop, who should draw up the d<icumeQt,
and the want of lime dunog tho scsfion. The
Uoute oi Bishops then appointed a committee,
however, consisting of the oldest live Bisbo(.i, to
prepare a Pastoral Letter for tho next General
Coaveotion. The Bishop of Vermont, as
and chairman of ikla committee, ol courie drew
up this teller; and nn calling together tho cc
mitlee, (couaiatiagi besides himself, of the Si
ops of Kentucky, Ohio, Wisconsin and Micbigau,)
tbo letter was read to them, and not a word of
fault WOB found, or suggcitioaof alt e ration mad t
Ou motion ol the Bishop of Ohio, it was uoar
imoualy resolved toreport tho Letter lotho House,
as the Pastoral Letter of tbe House of Bishop!
— it being understood that suggestions of altera
tion mieht ha made io the Hoiiie

within B tew day* the Bishop oi Ohio requested
the Bishop of Vermont to call th
gelbor oiiCB mure. Though no _. ..
igued lor Ihe request, it was complied with ; oad,
u neaembling, the Bishop ol Oliio drew forth
another draft of a Pastoral Letter, written by
himself, wbicb ho proceeded to read, and moved
that it be reported tu tbe House also, along
tho other, that Ihe House might choose botweea
Tbo Bishop of Vermont, feelingascru
plu of delicacy in regard to a produclioD of hi
own, quitted tlio Chair, oud left the matter to be
decided by the other meoibura of tbe commi
Tbe Bishop uf Ohio remained, and lotcd foi
iwn paper. Tbo Biahop of Kentucky throi
ii< vole with the Bishop of Ohio, the comm
vns equally divided, and nutbiog coi;ld be done
.■xccpt to rejioctbolh loiters lo tho Houai
read In the House, tho Bishop ol Marylin
tbat the letter written by the Bishop of Obm be
the Pastoral Letter of tho Houiu of Buhups,
hicb motion prevailed.
Had Ibis beea merely a question of taste,
potdonal preference, not oue of tho p re late a men -
tioued would have couiideted tho affair worthy of
u second Ibougbt; nor should we have said a
word about ii. But the ku/- and tmiji— diffcr-
eocD betwceu thu two, wan, that Ihe Bishop ol
Ohio', letter wain political manilesto. and iho
Bishop of Vermont's was noi. This was o sub-
ject of too deep and vital importaoca to be pasieU
over in silence. Thu Bishop of Vermoot, there-
fore, drew up and presented in tbe Bouse, on
Thursday evening, the following Prouil against
the political character of tbe Pastoral Letter, re-
quejting leave to have it eoteted on the Journals.
Leave was refused, and tbe record was, by vote
of thu Hoaee, so altered aa to conceal tie fact
that any other draft of a Fnitorol had been no-
loro them for cousideratioa except tbat ivritleii
by Ihe Bishop of Ohio.

RioiiT Revebrsd Brethren ; It is with
luch regret thut 1 find mysell obliged to enter
ly solemn protest agaiast the political aspect of
10 Pastoral Letter which your venerable body
has adopted nod to withdraw from the final act of
ita public delivery. Ou minor lopica of opinion,
during my Episcopate of thirty yeara, I have nev-
r departed from my duty to preierva the unity
.jf this Bonse, lo tbo utmost of my email ability.
But IbiaactioD, in my judgment, involves afund-
a me Dial principle in our ecclesiastical poailioa. —
Wo stand oppwcd. in this country, to any union
of Church and Stal«. In our individual copacity.
aa citizens, we aro bound bylhe plain precepts of
tbe inspired Apostle, to bear true ulleg lance to
■' tbe powers tbat be,"— the earthly Government
jnder which the Provideoeo of God has plr-—'
IS- For that, our system sets forth an ampti
raogemeot, in the homily against rebellion, in
catechism appointed for the instruction of youth
in the Lessons ol Scrlptnru, in our Litaoy, and
the prayers for tho President and Congress, to si ,
notbiogol the Boeoial sopphcatioas set forth tor
tho present national troubles, all uniting in tbe
most positive testimony to iho duty of Christian
loyalty. But berond this. 1 cannot allow that
this House of Bishops, assembled io our official
relations to the Church of God, has a right
by eipre^siog any judgment ou tbe Ibi
of secular goverameat.
Under the AmaricoQ Constitution, tbe State baa
I right to declare its sentence oo Ihe legitlatiua
of the Cliurcb, so loog as we do nothing to impair
the duty of loyalty. And under our Apostolic
Conslituliun. Ihe Church has no right to utter
her sentence upon tbe legislation of tbe State, so
' !>g as it forbears to assail our Chriatiau liberty,
leir respectivo laoctions are distinct. The A1-
_ighty Ruler of the world bos comaiitted to the
Stole the wide sphere of l-imparnl '-' — -' --■ '

was attempted, though in different forma, by Po-
pery and Puritanism. I know that it exists, to
tent, in the establishment of England,
10 know that the primitive Church spread
her triumphs throughout tho earth, in total inOe-
peudence ol the State, and that all our clergv
have been educated toregard the unioo of Chorea
id Stale as a mistake aad a calamity.
Maintaining this as a fundamental principle ol
. jr eccietiaslical position, from which I cannot
justify ooy departure, I proceed to show how tbe
Church bos acted witb relation lo tbo poUcy of

ay have been formed nnlhe widest eiamiaiticia

locerity. on tbe part of my respected brelbrea
Mm whom I ditfor. I shall withdraw miieU
from any parlicipalion in the Pastoral Lsittr,
with the kindliest feelings of fraternal aOedioQ
toward my colleagues, without exception, Atid
I trust by the mercy of Qod, that I shall bs al-
lowed to meet them at a future day, under htp.
pier circumstances, when we may assemble to-
gether again in a true union of sentiment and a^

under the uisadiantages of her aeculi

From tho period when Christianity became ea-

iblisbed in ihe old Roman empire, there were
many insorrecliana, and intestine as well as lor-
eign wars, but I cao call lo mind no instance, iu
alt the Councils, where ihe justice or thuiojuetice
of those wars was mode a lopic ol ecclesiastical
consideratiou. In tbe civil wars oi England,
numerous belure the Reformation. I
think it will not bn found that the Church com-

litted herself by any formal and united actian

ither to tb? one side or lo the other.
In the great rebellion against Charles I, I am

ot aware that tbe Bishops were assembled to let
lorth any sentenco on ihe poUiicil right or wrong
involved in the conflict, although it ihreiienea,
and, for a seaton accomplished Ibeir own official
dowofall. And when the Amcric.iu colonies re-.
tolled, and Ihe Rev, William White become the
Srjt Chaplain to the Revolutionary Congress, I
do not see the abgbteit movement in our Uother
Church io condemn bis course, or that of tbe
minister ivho acted with bim. The Bishop of
Loudon was the diocesan of all Ihe clergy iu the
colonics, and had thu unbounded right lo suspsui
or depose them, if tho act of seoular rcbelhon
bad but proper ground lor ecclesiastical doounci-
atinn. But that, iu ever^ age, has been regarded
subject fur the action ol the State, and I
doubt whether aa inatance can be found, in the
if the church's history, where an
ccolesiaalical court haa tried a man for secular
rebellion. If tbo Church of England bad held
it to be her duty to adopt Ihe principle which
Ibia House of Bishops has laid down in the Pas-
toral Address, tbe Rev. William White and bis
colleagues could hardly hate been accepted as fit
subjects for Episcopal coocecratiun, and tho
whole charocler ol our mioiaterial auccession
would most probably have passed away forever.

It is due lu the sotemu rcspoasibihty under
which 1 pre(«nt this protest, that I should enforce
its positions by tbe citation of some high author-

I'rhe Bishop hero quotes Palmer, Field, Biag-
bam, tbe 2Uth ol Ihe 30 articles, aod olhi>r high
authorities, for which we have not room here, and
then goes on lonay :]

These quotatiuBs might be greatly multiplied,
but thef must surely be sufficient " "-

in tho mournful task of slaughter.

On the whole view, tharefure, which I have been
able to lake of this deeply imporlDat qacatioa, I
am constrained, however reluctantly, to stand en-
tirely aloof from thu novel motemont, which
pledges tho Church to the State lu its merelj- po-
litical adminisitation. To that, as au iudividual
oitizcn, wo owe all lawful obedience and support.
But here, sctiDg as Bishops in the Church of
Christ, wa havo nu rgbt to pass hcyoad tbe cir-
cle of our spiritual functions, nor lo express nny
opinion, direct or indiii^ct, upon the meoiures of
our secular govern 01 en t. Iu the world, we are
all ready to reuder unto Cojsar tlia things tbat aro

course ofour secular Goveromcut when it pleases

measures when Ihey happen to bo unacceptable.

tbat there was alailioronsside io tho illegal
aod most unwarraalAble arrests and impris-

ment, anct witbont due process of law.—
Theao proceedings do not indicate atrengib,
but weakness. Under a despotio prinoe.or
a form of govcrnmeut where the civil rnler

will be, unless thoy become so frequent aad

Under institutions like our own, where tbo
liivil ontborities are periodically obosen by
,tho people, and aro respoiisible to tbo peo-
ple for their misdoings, acts of this sort need
produce no immeiliute efl'eols but thoia
revolutions effeoled by tbe ballot'box; but
these aro sure to come. Of after conae-
icnoes we do not speak ; but wa say it is
.diorous for men who cnu stay in office but

voking tyraony during Ibeir brief period of

But in tbe duvelopmeat of tbe ca^e of Mr.
Winder, of wbioh wo have another atsfje in
the proceedings recorded lo<day, there ia
something peculiarly laughable. Our ei-
oellent friend, Mr. Baley. tbe deputy Sheriff,
armed with tba writ issued by bia honor
r. Justico Clifford, taking a siuglo wit-
>S9 with him. embarks in ii sail boat man-
id by two ineo. and proceeds to Fort War-
■n- The fort, it seems, by order of the
Governmentr is put in a. posture of defence.
At the approach of tho formidiible oratt, the
whole available garrison ia drawn up on the
beach, of tbe Island threatened by the
terrible inouraion of a, Deputy Sheriff awl
his assistant. Fifty men, armed and ac-
coutred lo the teetb, stand ready to resist
the invasion. The worthy and gallant com-
mandant of the fort does not appear, bat
undoubtedly watobes the proceedings

of ihe dreaded writ, since it is evideat that

osperate ■' traitors " who have thus ap-
pro aohed its stronghold.

Warned by suob a terrible array, the foe
retired, and tbe escape of the Guverament
from tho impending peril is secured, if its
dignity Is less safe. Why all this ooatrived
resistance to the service of tbe writ ! Why
not so far show decent respect io the low
and to tho Court, as to permit service and
defer the refusal lo deliver tbe prisoner, oa-

COLONEL D. S. MILCIi.
The Commission bas apprcached a cuatidera-
m ot Ibis officer's conduct in connection with
^larrtoder ol Harper's Ferry with extreme
tuaciaiiM. An officer who cannot appear before
uy earthly tribunal to answer or explain charged
tnv«l; aflecllcg hia character -. who has met his
'••"■■•"- '---'lOl the enemy, even upoo the
in entitled lo Ibe

liihes. Ihnt Col. Jliltj was incapable ol conduct
ing adefeoBeio importnatu was tbiauf Harper'i
Ferry. The Commiwion would not have divel!
edupon Ibispaiaful subject were it not lor the fact
that the oOicur wbo placed this incapable in c(
mand should (bare ia the respoasibllily, and
the opinioa ot the Commiisioo Mnjor-Qeooral
Wool is guilty to tba extcat of a grave disailvr
and should be censured for his conduct.

The Comuiiiston bas remarked freely o
Miler, an old officer who ha% been killed
service o( his country ; and il caoaot, from any
motivea of delicacy, refrain from cenaiiriog tbose
ia highcummand, wbcn it thinks Fucb censuie
desecved. The General-ia-Chfef has testified that
Gen. McCiellan, after hating receiied orders to
repel the enemy inradiog tba State of Maryland,
morebed only six miiei per day, on an averoge,
when puKuiog this inradia^ enemy. Tbc G«n-
eool-in-Cliief nlio testifiej, that in his opinion
Gen. McCiellan could and should have relieved
and protected Harper's Ferry,
ion tbe Commi<sion fully couc

Tbu evidence thus introduced conGrmed the
Commission in the opinion that Harper's Ferry,
as well as Maryland Hights, was pteniatur^ly
turrecdered. The garrison should bavo been sat-
isfied that relief, however loag delayed, would
come at la^t, and that a lliousand men killed in
Harptr's Ferry waald hate bun a Small lots had
liie poll brcnsartd, and prohabli/saci '
sand al ^nticiam. How important
tense we can now appreciate. Of tbe 97.009
men, composing the whole of Lee's army, more
than one-lbird were attacking Harpet'e Fetry.
Aud of Ihii. the main body was in Virginia. By
refereace to tbe evidence, it will be eeeolbatat
the very moment Col. Ford abandoned Slaryland
Highli hi» httle army was in reality relieved by
Gens. Franklin and Sumner's corps at Cramp-
tou'i Gap, withia seven mileJ of his poiition ; and
that after (be surrender of Harper's Ferry uu
given lo parole prisoners before ao.OOO
troops tvere hurried Irom Virginia, and the en-
lire force went off on double quick torebeveLec,
wbo was being attached at Anlietam, Had the
garrison been slower to surrender, or the army
of the Potomac swifter to march, tbe enemy
would have been forced to raise tbe eiego, or
lid hove been taten in delail, with tbe Poto-
i dicidiog hh forces

that Col. Thomas H. Ford, of the aid Ohio Vol-
uoteoie, conducted Ibe defease of Maryland
Heights without ability, abandoned his position
n ithout sufficient cause, and has shown tbroueh-

Msjor Boird, of IbelSGtbNew York, is, by direc-

Gen. McCiellan was uVged to give me iufotma.

Ian slated Ibat It would require at least three
day. to supply the Fitit, Filth and Slitb Corps;
that (hey needed shoes and other indispeusanlu
articles of elolbiog, as well as shelter tents. No
complaint was made that any requisitions bad
nol beco filled, nnd it wa» inlorred from tbe lan-
guage that be was only waiting for the distribu-
tion of bit supplies. On Ibo I Itb. be lelegrapbed
that a portion nf bis euppliei, sent by rail, bad

spoke of many of bis horses beiai; broken dowt
by fatigue. On tbe i2th be complained that the
rale of supply was only "150 horses pet week tor
the entire army there ood in front of Wnsbiog-
ton." I immediately directed the Quartermiifer
General to inquire into (hie matter and report
why a larger supply was not furnished. General
Meigs reporled on tbe 14lh, that the overage is
sue ol horses to Gen. McCtellao'* army ia the
field and in front of Washington, for tbe previous
eii iveeka, bad been 1.45Q, per week, or 6,'5i i

earth, and the appointment of Sahl'EL
Galloway, of (his city, these cases were
promptly taken up, some 600 iu all, mostly
from Kentucky, Western Virginia and Ten-
nessee. These tlOO men were pdiliial, or
Stale prisoners, not prisoners of war, taken
at their homes en the complaint of some
personal and political enemies.

Who it is that enters the complaint is
never known — so that tho perjured villaina
arc kept hid by the Government from the
accueed. Many of these (JOO prisoners have
been in that foul prison <j and 7 months
without tho least idoa for what (hoy were
put in, or who were Ibeir accusers.

Mr. Galloway at onco acted with great
promptness and laiinoss. and finding noth-
ing agoinst tho mo^t of the prisoners, has
been discharging them at the rale of (en to
twenty a day.

Among thosa released is our fellow citi'
len of Ohio. Dr. jVllen, a man and physi-
cian of as good standing and puro churac-
ter as any other man. Bis crime was iu
being a very active Democrat, ond in bis
Township (Salem, ) a great number of Re-
publicans were leaving the sinking Aboli-
tion ahip. The scheme of these Abolition
devils evidently was to arrest Dr. Allek
the day before the election, and thus by
threats ovcr-awo the voter.t, and bring them
back into tho negro line.

Uat through somo slip tho Marshal failed
to arrive until the day afltr tho election,
and SalfiQ Township had given her Demo-
cratio majority foT ikejirst time I But Dr.
Allem muBt Huffer. aud fahe ajjldamls had
been procured for his arrest, and iMarsbal
Bill, with his pane, whose fees uinount to
a large sum for tho arrest, proceeded in tho
wort.

Ooe of the men who had given his allida-
vit against Dr. At.LEN, becauo alarmed at
what ho bad done, turned "Slates evidence,"
aad took an active part in getting him re-
leased, Mr. Gai.i,oWAV, on Iheao state-
menlB of facts, very promptly had Dr. Al-
LKH discharged, and on yesterday he left
fur his bemo en the cars.

Now, the queaiioa arises, who Is to eom-
pcuealo Dr. Allkn for tho loss of tlmo, of
tbo practice uf his profession, for tho dis-
graoo Ibns attempted to bo attached to bis
name f and what is to becomo of tho per-
jured villains who in this case arc acoidcn-
tttlly known to Dr. Alleu \ Of course
this foul and Infamoaa case cannot rest
where it is— because tho person* rngaged
iu it aro koowu. Dr. Allen being q man

of rcpuldii'iii and talents, and of tbo old
fashioned yri;, such as ran through the
of revolutionary
memory, will not suffer such wrongs with-
out seeking- that redress which the Consti-
nnil ih'? laws guarantee to him.

Release of a. IV. Carmncb IToiu
t'niui* Clinsc.

Mr. Cahmack, ol Aleiandria, Kenluoky.
was roleaa'^d from Camp Chaao prison on
last week. "Honorably discharged;" not a
witness against him. Mr. CARU.VCK lives
opposite New Klchmond, Ohio, and in well
known to the people of Clermont county.
Wo knew bjm thirty odd years ago. lie
was a grer.I friend of Hesrv Clay, and a
gentleman of promiuenoe and property.
We believe he has laid in the foul prison
over tho river for tho last sii or seven
months without a single charge against him.

Ho has no idea who his aoouser wne, un-
less it wai< a man who held a personal gradge
against him, and a " sneaking abiiUtionist,"
at that. An abolitiociat is bad enough in
Ohio, and, wo suppose, they are still meaner
in Kentucky. Lying and perjury does not
hurt their seared consciences much.

Tho authorities in Kentucky should bo
ashamed of Iheinselves for sending men
over to Ohio prisons for months and months
without charges that they dare investigate,
and without witnesses that dare show their
petjured fiices lo the public-

W&r News of tlic ^Vcek.

We have again to say that ao far as tbo
action of (he Army is concerned, we hove
very Utile news lo report. All eyes are
tamed to fbeKappafaannock and Blue Moon-
tains, but still very little information can
he ohtaiueil which is worthy of reliance.

The great feature of the week has been
the departure of Gen. McClellan firom the
Army, and his journey to Trenton, New
Jersey. The strong attachment of the sol-
diers lo Gen. McClellan was fully demon-
strated on his bidding them adieu as they
were drawn up in long lines as be passed in
review. It i^ described by some as eslrenie-
ly affectinc:, and tho booming of cannon and
the cheers of farewell fioonded from valley
to hill top. This must have sounded iu the
ears of Ihoso in authority, moro terrible
than the bc->uiing of the enemies' cannon at
Manassas.

On the riiuto to Trenton he was every
where received with ovations of deep regard
and sympathy, showing that whatever ef-
forts have been made to injure his repntation
ns a soldier and patriot, they have had but
very little effect on the public mind.

At Trentou, Now Jersey, on tho night af-
toi' hia lirrival, an immense conconxao of
people, the largest, it is said, thai was ever
seen in (bet place, with bands of music,
&;c.. marched 10 the Hotel where ho was
stoppiuR uLil called him out. In response
he made the following speech ;

Those words in ilalks have oreatod no
small amount of conjecture, but we aoo no
reason why they should. Tho same doc-
trine has been prominently preached in The
Crisis from tbo bugiDtdng. Never are peo-
ples' liberties in so much danger os in (imes
of oivii wor. Never can the people be so

iproased wi(U (he necessity of preserving

i-ir "individual liberty." At no other

time is it so impottant that the mouths of

tbe peoplo should be opened and ready to

denounce tho first move towards the dcstruc-

ia of thoir perfect freedom.

Qeu. McClellan, holding thefo views,
could not but bo unpopular with on Admin-
istration and a party whose sole aim accmed
lo halo strike down the -'freedom of apeeob,
and tho freedom of the press," and with
the freedom of the individual. It was
not safe to trust ao great an army in the
hands of one who was so dinmetrloally op-
posed to tho policy of those in civil power.
His removal, and not only his. but tho remo-
val of a)l others like bim, becomes a more no
cessity, IflheiNteutiunof tbcAdmiaislraliun
is, an has been repeatedly announced, to
estublish a doBpotism upon tbe ruins of the
Itopablic. Their actions and their avowals
are, at tho very least, enough to alarm the
whole country not in tho conspiracy against
Amoriooa freedom. To raoch tbe Ircedotn
of the negro, tbo white man must submit to
alavffy. This (hey call "saving the Un-
ion," Tho Union can only bo saved by
Buvlug the individual froodom of tho citizen,
and tbo cciginal rights ond aovoroignty of
tbo States. Preserve thoeo, and tbo peoplo

G[u;kl!'.v'e recent discovery that tho

Democrats of New York, and tbe ConlVde-
rates at Richmond, are to re-BSlablish the Un-
by a Convention of all tho States, ns it
I originally created, baa more wisdom
n prudenc) in the public avowal. Mr.
Greeley knows well that unless the rights
of tho peoplo and the rights of the States
doHlroyed by suspension of writs of
Ol ciirj}us, ond tbo military power, the
States will, when in the bands of froumen.
contending for their own rights, and tbe
rights of their oitiaena, sooner or later, pro-
pose a Convention of all tho States to pat
an end to a strife that can never succeed,
as now progreasing, only at the espenae of
liberty itself.

Mr. Gref.Lby aeee these things, and. in
advance, pretends that he has made a great
discovery, which mi one but himself, per-
haps, ever heard of escept through some-
body's suggestions as to what may yet be
done. Wo are glad, therefore, tho subject
has been poblioly brooohed. Tho discus-
sion cf it will do no hurt, and may save a
nation. Who knows?

only one in Ohio since the election. ^N

trary acts of tho Government, bat so long

presume if these arbitrary aota can be pei
formed any where with the sanction of

in the "dark and bloody ground " of that

The Noinrnl EITecTs of Abolition
Tcochintfii.

Often have we felt It our duty to call
itlontion to tho efforts of Iho abolition
lapers to tcacb our soldiers to convert our
oivil war into one of robbery, tbeft, arson
and general barbarism. To treat a South-
em prisoner with any kind of decency or
consideration, was deaooneed m a crime of
the blackest dye, Tho professed religious
papers, such as tho " Western Clirisiian (!)
Advocate," were the most brutal of their
kind; and the,'40 papers wore carefally sent
to tbe army and distributed among the sol-
diars. Oflicora in command who encouraged
pilfering and house-robbing, from a n
to a family bible, were eulogized to the
ninth Heaven, and received promotion ;
white those who struggled to keep disolplini
and decency in the ranks wore denoanced ii
the bitterest language as " secesh sympa
thizera," and poor, simple President Li.s
COLN ordered to dismiss them.

These things produced their natural
effects. The seed sown produced its fruit
—the land was filled with rumors of the
outrages on private property ond all the
proprieties of modern warfare, and nnlil tbe
savages of Minnesota gave as a feeling ex-
hibition of abohtiou warfare, every sensi-
bility of our authorities seemed lost to rea-
son or common humanity. So nobody was
hurt but a ichile man or ir/if« family, the
abolition crusado of barbarism went on
swimmingly. But a library was at last not
only stolen, but sent to Now York for sole,
to pot money into tbo United Slates Treasu-
ry, undersecretary Chase'h order. All at
once tbe literary gentlemen of Gotham di
covering the heinous crime of robbing pi
vate houses, set up so great a clamor th
Secretary Chabe ordered the «alo of (
Beaufort hooks suspended '.

Now. we ask Ibosa literary gentlemen
go round a little — visit Boston and collect
up the fine mirrors, tho costly pianos, the
rich silver ware, in fact, everything per-
taining to bonaeheld comfort, stolen by the
Yankee leachors ot the negroes, and. if not
destroyed en the apot under the eye of G'
Hunter, shipped to Boston, emd (here made

For Tim CiUU.

Editor or Crisis -—I have carefully
w.hi and proyerfnUy modilated upon the
Ktierend Uenry Ward's sermon upon fu-
luie punishment — aa copied from the Cin-
(iBnati Gaielte—and his peculiarly New
England invention for escaping with his
tlwdy counsels from the Jirici and posilite
penalty pfODOunced by th« Dirine lips of
our blessed Itedeemer BgaiostaUmurderers,
liiTE, blftsphemouf hypocrites, and those
nho iudulge in hnrd names against their
brothers.

I, sir. am o believer iu the dootiines of
(he Church of which Jlr. BeeoUor jirofesses
lo be the peculiar eipooent, and now I call
opoa the clergy adhering to the same
ciurch, here and elsewhere, lo " come out"'
—lake their stand — tell us, their adherents,
their brothers and their auppoit — tell us of
a truth whether this be the true doelrino or

lowing after false gods. Tell us

The good old doctrine of " eternal fiio "

Uieall been false.

At this particular time — 1 eay i

The old adage is. "as the old cocks crow, ce
the young onus [earn." Tbis is tbo result of a
tariff so high that all eorls of temptations are
held out for defrauding the Government.

Tbe YaaKees used to livo by Bmugghng goods

The hog market baa not settled down to any
definite prices. It is yet too early. Prices sbould
advance on tho present deprccinled carreocy, but
what may be Ibe futuie it is not safe to predict.
Much may depecd upon tho number oF bogs for

will, of course, be greatly deficient, but this may
be ollset by tho toss of the Soatbern market.

ing tbo quantity of cotton bow in tbe Southern
Slates. The leltor ia dated I3tb of Augustl
Dad Mr, Iluncb profvisees to have been at se
paina to collect his infermalion, and thinks
may be depended upon. He says:

Mr. Dean was formerly a member of Con-

lif worthy of tbo trust the people repose
him. What we want in future, and it
lould never have bpen neglected, is. to have
the very best ond ablest men among us se-
lected for seats in our Slato Legislatures.—
call the timely attention of our people
to this most important, but too long uogloct-
ed subject- We not only want meu of tal-
ents and sound principles, but we want bold

the pliant tools of some man's inter-

t himself a man, looking to the in-
terests of the whole people, and ready to
bmit his stewardship to the people who
elected bim instead of some iadividual who
ready lo pursuade bim tbat he holds his
destiny in his hands.

Stale Legislaturea in future will be
:e forums of popular rights and the
preservers of our liberties. Congress is
pretty well " played out," and it will toke
years for it to regain ils reputation and the
general confidence of the people, It is a
lost Pleiad in our political sky and tre must

We are pained to think that u man Kl
Got. Tod, with iho natural iunliucts of

brief BuccegN, sacrifice bis name to over-
lusting condemnation. The contrast be-

S reposed by Major Qen. Dii. aud in which the

" very desirable for reasons both miljlury aud hu-

look place ut Dayton on Tuesday lailat:J
o'olooK P. M., at tbo American Lutheran
Churoh, and was atttcnded by a vast con-
course of citizens and strangers. Luug be-
fore ihe services commenced the large and
magnifioeut edifice was filled lo overfion-
iug. When tho procession, headed by the
regimental bond aud tho Ilarmouia Suciety,
arrived at the Church, the street was orond-
ed with carriages aud citizens. At Ibi'
t of the solemn and impies-
conducted hy the Rev. Mr.
Sleot, the pastor of tho Church, the aisles,
galleries, vestibules, iftnirs aud basemesl
were densely crowded with people, a large
majority of whom were ladies. Tfau streeti
wero filled by those who could not gaiu ad.
mittonce into tho Church, but who waited
patiently until the servicer were closed.

At the close of the services iu tbe Churob.
the corpse of tho honored dead was removed
tu tbo lower vestibule, aud an opportunity
given those who wished to lake a look al
their murdered friead. So large was ibr
crowd that it took about one hour for thai'-
in the streets to pass through the vestibule
and back into tho street. The speeoblesJ
silence and the tearful oye told more elo-
queutly thuu words in wiiut ustjmaliuo be
was held by the people-

The procession was again formed nod
moved towtird thocemeieiy. It was per*
baps the largest fuueral cortege ever si-en
in Ohio, and certainly tbe largest ever is
Dayton- Tbo carriages numbered huD-
dreds and those on foot thousands. When
Ihe ndvauoe had reached tho last restmg
place of the peaceiul dead, the rear bad not
yet left tho city.

Arrived at the grave, the Ilarmouia So-
iety chanted the tuueral requiem, aud lli^

I have made several eiperiments, and al-

Tho milk from two cows wa.a miaed at
each milking, strained into common sIk.'

that tiuio tho cream became bard, and wa.s
skimmed off wholly free from milk. The
milk had been measured in each pan when
strained, and whenakimmed the oream was
measured and weighed, but I do not place
full reliaooo upon tbe weight as our common
steelyards were used. Believing that tem-
perature has effect on the milk, it was kept
as equal as possible each day. No fire i
kept in tbe room during the night, and I
timato the average tompetature of the ro

An uosbod horse, i

condition, hai

the foot; and wisely is it so ordained:
it otherwise, the animal would be unable to
secure foothold when climbing eminences
"- traveling over level surfaces.

Tho action of concave feet may be com-
pared to that of the olawsof 0 cat, the
the fingers and toes of man ; tbe
nails and toes are Ihefulcrums; they grasp,
as it were, tho bodies with which they come
in contact, and thus thoy secure n. fulcrum
of resistance when traveling or grasping.

Now in order to preserve Ibe natural, me-
cbauical actions of tho bom and sola, tho
ground surface of the shoe muat correspond
tiactly with the ground surface of the fool;
that is to say, the ground surface of the
shoe must bo beveled, cop fashion, its onte
edge, being prominent, corresponds to thi-
lower and outer rim of the hoof; while tho
shoe being hollow, it resembles the natural
concavity of tho eole of tbe loot.

Notwithstanding the various opinions
which now prevail, in regard to the general
art of shoeing horses, I think all will sooner
or later confess that a shoe with concave
ettrface neit the ground, is tho only proper
ono to supply.

No matter what may he the form of the
foot; whether it be high or low heeled;
contracted el the heels; lengthened or
shortened at the toe; or, having a concave
or coDvei sole ; il matters not. the ground
surface of tbe ahoo must be conve.x.

In every other part of the shoe altera-
tions and deviationa, from any given rule,
or form, are often needed, in eonscjiience
of the ever varying form of the foot, and
the condition of the some, both as regards
health and disease: bat the sole of tho foot
bemg concave presents a pattern for the
round surftice of tho shoe, which the

Broith,"witb alibis skill, cannot improve
a. nnd if all such craftsmen were to follow
this pattern more oloaely than tbey do,
"lero would be fewer accidents in "falliiig,"
nd a less number of lame horses.

Sheep can stand cold weather without in-
jury if itia dry. Sudden ebungos and cold
rains are very injurions. Wo believe sheep
require aholter quite as much in tho Sooth-
west as at the North. The weathi
as cold, but it is more changeable, and the
aheeu frequently get thoroughly aosked to
the skin. In this condition a cold raw wind
and a damp aoil cannot bat help to carry off
much of the heat which is necessary to the
well being of sheep. The natural heat of
tbo body of sheep, (llWdeg.) ia ' " ^
er than that of horses and oattlo. This beat
IB kept up by tho consumption of food, (o
burning of fuel) in tbe lungs, .ko.. of tliL
animal. To prevent this heat from flying
off, the Bheop uro nrovided with a good ivara
coat of wool. Tobe effectual, however, tb(
coat muat be kept dry. In a cold, dry cli-
mate, if the wool get n llltin wet on the out-
sido it is soon frozen and this nets as a coal
of mail, with a good warm lining of dry
wo'd inside, so that the heat from tho warm
bodj? within does not tly off. It is said that
tho Scotch Higblaudcra iu oldan times when
eaposed during frosty nights, wet their

Ekida before lying down to sleep, and by
olding them a short time from their bodies
tbey were frozen Iu a stiff hard board, suf-
fioicntly thick and impervious to defend
tbcin from tbe cold. Tbe slight coat of
frozen wool acts ia the samo way. But in
wet weather there ia no each protection,
and so it ia that yon will find it equally im-
portant to provide shelter in tho warm, but
wet and changeable, climate of the South-
western States— Cafi/orn 10 Farmtr.

The same eiperimenta were tried twice

icoesaively with the same results. For

another eiperiment the milk was allowed

to stand 72 hours, but wiUiout any addition

to the measure of cream. The question

idily occur, whether there would be

any difference ia the per centage of buller

r of the above eiporiments. Thia I

say. but I am positive in my own

is in favor of the milk in ihallow

A New Wan'PLETiiEE— Many accidents

culty has been made, and a model of tbo

1 have eiperimented in various ways in
the treatment of milk ond butter-making,
and have come to the following positive con-
clusions, viz; Milk should be strained im-
mediately after milking, and that two quarts
is sufficient for one pan. No more cream
is obtoined from milk which has been heated
than from that which has been kept in a
room of the proper temperature. Cream
should be kept at the same temperature
after being skimmed as before, during cold
weather; also it should be stirred twice a
day, and a little salt stirred in two or three
times while being gathered for a churning ;
this will prevent the wbite particles of curd
so frequently seen in butter. Forty-eight
hours is sufficient for the milk to stand, be-
fore being ekimmod, if proper treatment is
pursued. For churoiag, the cream should
■•' warmed gradually. Thia, Mr. Editor,
u my bumble opinion tbe beat method of
treating cream during the wiater months ;
for summer, my method is somewhat differ-

indeed, we have heard of him— the irony is
eic ell en I— and of Dr. Johnson's grow I
about the frightful interval between tbe
ied and the timber." Still, we say, plant
trees. They who plant at once, i: ' " "
wasting their breath in selfish cc_^....„.^
of the shortness of life, find lusuriant fol-
iage waving over tbem much sooner than
eipaoted. But, whether you live to seethe
maturity of your trees, or not, be benevo-
' — ' - lough to plant for posterity. Trona-
your children tbe inhoritanoeof rural
beauty received from your fathers, greatly
--;mented. Byallmeaos plant, and plant
,1, and tbe result will overpay the labor.
And let not your work end with planting. —
Feedyour trees from yearto year witb gen-
erous food and euurd them from injury.
And, in tho words (slightly allered)ot nn
lid planter : " What joy muy you have in
seeing the suocesa of vour labors while you
I, and in leaving behind you to your heirs
iuecessors, a work that, many years af-
yonr death, shall record your love to
your country ! And then rather, when you
sider to what length of time your work
ke to last." If you have country homos

Remember that a. great ostnblisbment is a
great care, and that the proprietor is apt to
become ii slave to it. Lei your dwelling
place be marked with what painters call
"repose." Make them tho abode of oom-
fort and refined enjoyment, plaoea which
will always afford you agreeable occupation,

hooka and tore them into f ragmen Is. .\ftej

Very respect fully youra.

The above reaches us from the Western
Reserve. Wo think, «nder uli the oiroura-
stances, a paper which defends men's free-
dom is quite as interesting as going to hear
I Eormon, by order of Gov. Too, which ad-
■ocates tha tyranny of the "backbone"
Eieoutive. Wo might, wo suppose, bo
thankful, on the principle of tho man who
fell off the mainmast and broke his leg,
he thanked God that it waa not his neck. In
tho general wreck of lifo and imprisonment

J may. probably, tbank God that a few of

I have been spared. We certainly hare

it Gov. Toil to thank for any fjcueral

principle upon which wu '■ outsiders" hftvo

aped. We must, therefore, put it to

speeial favors, which wo ciio do as ivi>ll in

private as in public.

If the Government cauld take advantage
of this "Day of Jubilee'" and open the
prison doors and let Ibe illegally confined
prisoners go free, wo might have something
of positive good to be tbankfol for. Wo
wonder if they will think of it.'

Signs or Backtua Down.

We did not suppose that the terrific revo-
.lidO in the Nurlbern mind, as exemplified
) the late elections, would bo entirely lost
1 tho despotic authorities at Washington.
On the first announcement of the result, the
sensation papers, ua though the people had
no memories, declared vehemently that the
pablic eipreesion at the polls, was because
the A d mini;; t rat ion had not hurried '■ on to
Hiolimond." Knowing Old AriE's weak-
ness, tbey poured into his ears this clamor,
with, no doubt, their usual success. But
thoy could not peranado tbemselvea to be-
lieve the story, and, for fear of worse do-
feats in fatare. tbey are finding other rea-
sons for their " Waterloo," than tho '■ on
to liichmond story." The New York Dai-
ly 'IHmes, of tho 20th. feeling the force of
some of Ibe ofAfr reasons, nndaniious to es-
cape from the gathering slorm of tuturo
chastisement, verymloctantly reports itself
at tho mourners' beuoh, und confesses some
of tie wretched crimes committed by its ty-
rannical associates. Under tho Lead of
"AnniTiiARV AKHEST.'i," tho Tiinei says:
" Tho prompt diiavowal of tho Federal Gov-
eromeutof aoy agecev in thoUriaemado arreat,

cedure«ia loyal Statet, fjivea general satiafactioa.

Tho 'Times very coolly throws the blame
of the infamoas conduct of tho Govorumont
on the dastardly tools holding petty ap-
pointments, nnd calls it " die supcT-servicf.-
able zeelofeeHainqfidah:' If the Admin-
istration is about to wash ill bands of tho
aoaudalous outruges, lot it turn over these
ont-lawB, with commissions in their pookota.

Wu i]o not want confession without re-
pentance. We do not want these petty,
tyrant's tools of infamous memories, to be
turned over as acapo-goals of tho Govern-
ment without the sure punishment ia to fol-
low, whioheuch conduct deserves. The truth
is, aa everybody knowa, tbe.HO discarded
"sap er-Borvic cable" "offioiala" would never
have risked tho performance of these nots of
barbaroua tyranny, had they not been cn-
oouraged bythcac inhigh authority. And
they would not now remain a day within the
limits of the Unil^d Slflt^is, did thoy not be-
lieve that they would ho protected in their
iniquity by those Inbigh places. Too many
men havo suOorod — too many houueholda

have been made vaount— too many men
families have been ruined for tbti subjeot to
be dismissed and forgotten by smooth and
sUmyeditorials of papers which only waited
to carry tbo elections to become tho opou
and avowed advocates of carrying out th(
inhuman practice, to aa extent that wouli
have left revolutionary France far in the
hack ground, and made the bloody Ilanau
an angel of light by comparison.
The Timti further eaya :
" The Rat devolved an immeoie variety of mo-
nientouB duties and rejpauslbilitiea upoa cbe Ad-
mioiitratioa. and, in the nature of the case, time
fvos UDcefiary for its eubordiaates to uaderetand
tbem juntly, aad fulfill tbem correotly. All lea-
aoDnblomen bavo rccoEuized this, aud, sure of
the Preiidiiat'B uprightaeEs of iateatioo, have
made geuetoue allowaoco for errors."

The President was not ignorant of these

things, by any meau^, and his attention was

called again and again to the conduct of his

aubordinates." Does the Times mean to

say that Governor Too. of Ohio, aad Gov-

r Morton, of Indiana, to go no^^fur-
noro uf these " aubordinatos " who did
not "justly underatonil" and "correctly
fulfill" tho President's intentions? These

;tui)rs knew well what was going on in
their States, and so far from objecting to
the inouroernliou of their constituents, with-
ut law, without warrant, and for no cause
'hatei^er, oicopt political spite, they were
nowu to encourage and gloat over them as
good joke of the times. Is it the inten-
ion now of President Likcoln to disown
these acts, nnd throw back into the teeth of

B Governors, the charge that they arc
the guilty actors of these despicable aceues 1
It is easy for any one to appreciate tho
onjiety of tho President to escape tho in-
famy that has got to test on Bomebody'a
lUunldora, and it ia au evidence of some re-
turning sense when we see on effort made to
throw the damning crime olV his own sboul-
dors.

It we would like the Times to esplain

! what the President meant by hia proo-
lamatiun auapeuding tho writ of kab<as cor-
pus? Waving tho argument that he had
Ibo tight to do it, and the Times ndmitB
that that right may well be questioned, can
he be esonernted from blame for these ar-
rests under that suspension ? It came upon
the country unesplolned, unrestricted In its
locality, opening the way to Lis thous-
ands of deputies, whose very appointments

unkuoirn to the laws. The country

ma (like Egypt with frogs) with men
carrying commissions of every grade nnd
character, of every name and duty, defined
and undefined. Swelling with importauce,
authorized to seize whoever might pass be-
tween tbem and their supposed dignity

strappers and undor-Htrapperi — brainless
asses sitting in judgment, and judges pet-
forming duties which brainless asses ought
to be ashamed of; coutts giving deorsea
under military orders und Bailiffs ordered
to pay no attention to the courts.

Could all these tbinga happen, arc wo to
understand from the Times, without the
Ptcsidout's knoivledge or sanction > We
would, out of mere curiosity, like to know,
if forno other reason. We wish to keep a
faithful record of the times we live in for
the benefit of posterity, as our descendants
will, no doubt, be greatly interested in read-
ing a correct history of the Rail-SpU tier's
Administration. Tho truth will be novel
enough ; wo do not desire one word of ei-
aggotation lo make it interesting and read-
able, as truth is aometimea stranger than

TAt I'etiltun of Oa tVhilt Hen of Ihe- Slata of
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Poinsj.'ranio, Nan
York and Nca Jersey, /Hail Humbly Shaiedli
That the white men of these States, unan
iraously devoted with tho warmest senli-
menti of duly and afl'aotion to voiir sacred
person and government, and deeply
ble of your royal attention lo their
pority and happiness, humbly beg leave to
approach your throne by representing
your majesty that these States wore or _
inally planted by subjeota of tho British
Crown, who, animated with tbo epi
liberty, and confiding in tho public faith
lor the enjoyment of all lUo rights and lib-
erties essential to freedom, omigrnled from
theit native country to fbia contiue
by their successful perseverauoo,
midst of innumerable dangers and diflioul-
lies, together with a profusion of their blooi
and treasure, have happily formed and oa
tablisbed these United States. That for
the enjoyment of these rights aud liberties,
several governments were early formed in
these States, with full power of legislation,
agreeable lo the principles of tho English
Constitution. Thut under theao govern-
ments, these liberties, thus vested in their
ancestors, and transmitted to their poster-
ity, have been eieroisod and enjoyed, and
by Ihe inestimable blessings thereof, under
the favor of Almighty God, the inhospitable
deserts of America Lave been converted
into flourishing countries ; science, human-
ity and the knowledge of divine truths dif-
fused througbout remote regions of igno-
rance, infidelity and batbatism, the num-
bet of American citizens wonderfully in-
creased, and the wealth and power of Ihe
United States propottlanatcly augmented.
That by means of these States, nnd the
unparallelodHucoessof yourUajesty'sarma,
a foundation ia now laid for reudetiiig the
United States the moat powerful despotism
of any recorded in history ; our connection
with this empiro wo esteem our greatest
happiness and security, and humbly con-
ceive it may ba so established by your royal
wisdom as to endure to the latest period of
time. This, with Iho moat humblo submis-
sion to your Msjesty, wo apprehend, will be
most efieotuatly accompliebod by fixing the
pillars thereof on liberly and juslicc, and
securing the inlitrenl righti ond Itberlits of
yoursubjectaupoalboprinoiplesof tho Con-
stilulion. To this Constitution these two
principles ate essential ; the tights of your
faithful subjects freely to grant to your
Majesty such aids as aro required for the
SQpport of your government over tbem {
and Iriitl by ihcir peers. By the ono they
are secured from unreasonable impositions,
nnd the other from the arbitrary decisions
of the Eieculive po\ceT.

The continuation of these liberties to tbo
inhabitants of these Slates, toe ardently im-
phrr, at absolutely netessary Id itnite the
several parts of your wide eitended domin-
ions in that harmony so osseutiul to the
pieservation of the whole. Protected in
these liberties, tho emoluments these Stales
receive from each other, however great at
present, aro incomparable compared with
those they have the fairest prospect of ac-
quiring. By this protection tbey wiQ for-
ever secure lo themseives the advantages of
conveying to all Europe the mercbaudizs
which America furnishes and for supplying,
through the same channel, whatsoever is
wonted from thence.

Here opens a boundless source of wealth
and mora! strength. Yet these immense
advantages, by the abridgement of those
incaluablo rights and liberties by which our
growth Las been nourished, ate iu dangot of
being forever lost; and our subordinalo
Legislatures, in elTeot, rendered useless, by
the late acts of Congtosa impusiug duties
ond taxes on these States, (for lliu purpose
of buying negroes), and eitcndiugthe ju-
tisdictien of courts martial or military com-
mission hero beyond ita onciunt limits, (by
Sroclamatiou), by which your tliijesty un-
ertakes absolutely to dispose of tue liberty
and properly of your Bubjoota iu thoso
States without their consent, aud for Ihe
onfbreomeut whereof wo nro subjected to
the determination of aiing/ejudgoinaoourt
unrestrained by tbo wise rules of eomnion
law, the birthright of American citizens,
and the safeguard of their penons and

Tbo imaiuable rights of taring ourselves
(to buy freed nogroea or for any olhor par-
pose) ond {rial by out peers, of which wo
implore your Majesty's protection, are not,
wo moat humbly conceive, unconstitutional,
bat confirmed by theGreat Charter uf Amer-
ican libertits.

Being oouvincod by the must affecting
proofs of yout Majesty's patemnl Io»e lo
all your puople, (eapeoloUy tbo negto) how-
ever distant, and your unceasing and benev-
olent desires to promote their happiness, wo
most bumbly beseech your Majesty, that
you will ho graciously pleased to tnko into
your royal consideralion the distresses of
your failbful subjects in these States, and
to afiord tbem snob relief as In your royal

The Horrors in nissourl.

Mr. Medaki":— I wish to relate lo you
the facts of a truusaotiou which look place
in Clerk County, Missouri, and which
equals tbe inhuman barbarity of savages.
I do not think that your readers, and tho
people generally, nt a distance from tho
of these crimes, know and appreciate
the dreadful state of affairs existing in Mis-
olong the Iowa harder. It may be as
bad in other purls of the State, but I pray
not. Those outrages, which are being com-
mitted almost daily, aro the work of the
State militia, bodies of men organized and
set to work by tho Provisional Government
of Missouri. I am a citizen of Van Baten
Conuty, Iowa, which county borders on tho
County of Clark, and I believe that the fol-
luwUig is u substantially correct account of
the Ironsaotion. You published in yonr
paper an aocount uf tho bloody murder com-

'tled by Col. McNeil, and this is another

ime which deserves a place in tho cata-
logue of horrors.

Early in the morning, Sunday, Nov. Cth,
a party of State Militia onino to the Loose
of Mrs. Norlhoraft, a widow who lives a
short distance from Luruy, a small town in
Clark Coanty, and took her son, a yoang
about seventeen years old, took bim
of his bed, and marched bim about
throe-quarters of a mile from the houao and
shot him with four or five muskot bills, ond
then sent word to hia mother that she might
lave his body. The news of this mnrdor
iame to the Louse where the gentleman
rom whom I had tho details, was staying
Ivor night, from b man who came from tho
lireclion of Mrs. Northcraft's, and tho lady
if the house immediately went to the widow
Northoraft'a, and she said that the cries of
the mother and eisteta of the young man
woro heartrending. Tbo gentleman from
whom I had tho details, was in Missouri on
business, and staid over night at tbe Louse
mentioned abovo, and beard the firing of the
gnna when tho young man was killed. The
young man had been in Prioa'sarmy a abort
tlmn, abont a year ago. bat hod relumed
home, and had nnen ia the insane asylum at
St, Louis, and had boon discharged partial-
ly restored lo sanity. He bad not,Bino6
bis return from Prii^o'sormy, taken any port
n tho tronblos at all, and was never engaged

While wo wera riding forward grovo events
were occurring in the bigbeat region ol tho army.
Tbero exists ill Iho American army, as in the
English, a Cummi>nder-iQ. Chief, who exeteiics
over Ihe head of all Ibe Qeafraia a supreme nu-
Iboiilv, regulates Ibu diEtribuliou uf tbe troops,
and dicccls military opaiatioBf. These functions,
which have been greatly curtailed in the Jt tills h
army since the CriniCBU wnr, were iidl exercised
In all their tigor in 'America. From Ibo aged
Uen, Sc'ilt. who had toog honorably discharged
them, tliey bad pauvd lo Geo. McClellan. Wo
learned on reaching Fairfax, Ibat they knd been

Federal enemy. Johnston evacuated MBootsos at

be usele^d if nicceidfut, or at Rlcbniond, tbe lofi
of which would be a grave check, and unable lo
cover bath po-iiiooant once, Johnston thre-'"-
whole lorcF herorethe latter of tha two.

" For Ibii Army ol the Potomac this was,
fortune, lis movement waa unmasked bel
bad been miidi>. Part of its transporis wer
frozen up m the Hudson. Such being the stats
of affairii, was it proper to execute, as rapidly a
pO!sible, the movement upon Richmond by watei
or to march upon Richmond by land ' Such wo
the grave ijucslion to be sellled by the young
General in u miserable room of an abandoned
house at Fuirfd.i, within twenty-four hourd,
it waa at This uioment that thu news of bin
val BB Genrt.il-in-Cbief reached bim: toe
tbat is, that Le could no longer count upon the
co-operation of the other armies of Ihe Union,
and that tho troops under bis own orders were to
bo divided into four grand corps, nnder four sep-
arate chiefs nnmed in order ol rank, n rhdnge
which would throw into Bubattero positions some
yuong generals ol division who had bis personal
confidence. It ia easy to eeo tbat hero waa iuat<
ler enough lo cast a cloud upon the firmeat mind.
Bat Ihe General's resolution waa promptly taken,
" To follow the Confederalea by land lo Rich-
mond at tbia teoeon of Ihe year was a maleiial
impossibility. An incident had ]u at proved this
lo be ID. Gen, Stoneman, wilh a Hying column,
hnd been seiil in pursuitof the enemy. This cul-
ucin came up wilb Ihe enemy on Ibe Jtappabao-
Doek, along Ibu railway lo GordoDHville, and had
two engagements with hlmofuoereatiaiporlance.
Then came me rain. The forda wore swollen,
the bridges carried avay, tho watercourses could
no longer be passed by swioimiog ; they were
torrealj. Siuneman's column began to tufier lor
want of pruvisiooi, and its eitualion was perilous.
In order lo cummunicale with the army, Stone-
man had to send two oi McClelloo's aidi.Uo-camp,
who had accompanied him, across a rivor on
raft ol logs tied logether svitb ropes.

'■ Such was Ibo country boforo Iho army. —
Furlbotinoro, Iho enemy wob burning nnd break-
ing up all tbe bridges. Now, with thu waata of
tho American doldiur nnd Ihe usual oxtratagance
of his rnlious, and witti the necctsily of trans-
porting uverylhiog through a country where noth-
ing.is to boloTjudandwhero the least aterui makes
the TOida impasiabto, do army can live unlesa it
tppotts ils march upon a nnvigabla walor-courso

1 army of ouo hundred tboueand men can ualy

1 reduced to a single day. I need only add Ibat
upon tho reads to Kicbmond there were rlaductii
nhich it would haie rei^uired kli weeks to recun-
ilruct.

" The land march waa Ibercforo obaudoned and

TUE CAMPAIGN AGAINST RIUJIIIOXD.

In Ihia way n sure and rapid movement was
ooverted into a long and daogeronB campnigu,
and Ihia by the loia on one point nnd for a abort
time of tbe control of Ihe feoa. - • -

the flth of April, six divisions, Iho cavalry re-
lea, nnd a prodiniona unmber of wagons, were
niready landed. The General- in-Chief put them
nil in movement Koyea, wilh Ibroo dlviaions,
took n load along the bank of tbe James; Mc-
Clellan, with Ibe rest of tbe troops, took Iha di-
rect road to Yorklown, Wo first traversed the
ruioB of Hampton, burned down Bome timu before
by a Roitopchin like proceeding of the Confedc-
"lo General Mogrudet."

The Prince hero rennarks upon the curious fact
._at in Ibia war tho opposing chiela are to oflen
old Bchool mntea nnd ncquainlnnccs, but adds with
great good sense Ibat Iho hopesof ultimata recon-
ciiiation which aomo pen-one fonud upon Ibis cir-
cumslance, aro altogetlior deluaivo. Uo notices
also the utter abiuoce ol ejinpatby for the inva-
ding ormy in the country traversed, a state of
things which deprived tbe Federal commanders
of all informalion na to Ibo stale of the roada.lhc
movemenla ol Ibe enemy, and tbe localities of Ibe
country.

" Wo weie here twenty-four miles from York,
town, and we could not learn what works tbe
enemy had thrown up, nor what waa bia force
within Ihem. Thia was Ihe more nmaimg that
Fortress Monroe hod always been held by u strong'
gatrijon, which ought to bare been able lo obtaii

iolormalioo, or lomakesomo reconnoissance

a dir^tiou. But, by a atracgo aberration,
this Forltesa. now become Ihe base of opcratiuna
of tho Army of the Potomac, had been Hpecially
ssigoestered from tha command of Oenerol Mc-
Clellan, together wilh ita garrison, although Iho
General iu charge of It waehis inferior in rank.
Ueoco arose military Bosoeplihililies which were
10 means favorable lo too exchauge ol confi-
tial commuoicalions.

So the Army of the Potomac moved on in tho
darktoward Yorklown. Tbeculumnof IheCoui-
maDder-in-Cbief bad passed some fortified posi-
tioiifl abandoned by Ihe enemy. A few honemen
tere occasionally seen at rare interval}. No sot
T had we come under tho walls of Yorkloi
han wo wore arrested by the cannon. A few
;unboats, which had appeared at Ibo moulh of
fork liver, had found il guarded by some lorty
pieces ol heavy caliber, 'i'bo naval officers coo-
eluded tbnt they could not pass this battery; the
investment of tbe place by water inu«t com
ijuenlly be abandoned. When wo undertook

eaol V
retching actoBa tho peninsula on tho edge .
_araby stream called Warwick Creek, and high
enough lo make investment impossible. The Con-
federates had damned this mnraby stream in plu-
t it into n pond, and their dams,
witb other nccestibia poialr, were defended by
artillery, redoubts and ri tie-pits.

" ' " ■ Genera! Keyes, ia trying to pass
the river Warwick, bad been ibe first lo on - -
ter Ibis line of delenae. His march bad
very slow. Tho country perfectly tint am
ered with mar«hy forests, waa only traversed by
a few roads, scarce worthy ol the nam '"'
rains, falling in torrent;, unusual at Ihii
of the year, made these roads, if we mui
them, completely impracli cable. The infantry
could contrive to get uo by marching in (be water
through tbe woods ; but as soon na two or three
waBDus bad m:ide ruts in the ground uo wheeled
vehicle could move an iach. Of courfo all move-
ment was impossible, for we could not leave tbe
wagons. Tbe country was utterly deierled.
Bxcept wnler nnd food it supplind us with noth-
ing. The soldiers carried but two days' provis-
ions. These exhausted, the wngone wero their
only reliance. We hnd therefore to make whi

Stoneman marched rapidly upon Williamaburg
wilh all tho cavalry and four bntleries ol horse

few and narrow roads would permit There were
really only two of these roads— ono direct from
Yorhtown, the ulher coming from the left of tbe
Federol positions. The latter traversed War-
wick river at Lee'eMill, OQ a bridge which it
took three hours to rebuild. When Ihe division,
which was the firetto cross, had advanced a short
disiancu it met a portion of Ibe Confederate
aiiny, itbich gave way and fell bock before it
Suiilh informed McClell.iaof Ibit, nad the Gene-

of tbo convontion of 1787. by whiob tbo Con-

sucb blessiDgs, oa men never beforo derived
from governmante, who bavo failed — failed

world. There iiovcr has been u time since

i which the Government havlne been
iatered in tho upirit und occoroing lo
the true intent and mcnning of the bond
by whiob <[ was orealed, did not afford full,

StatL'S have testi&od their fuith hi tbo Fed
eral eyatem in tho moat aolemo manner ic
which Huch testimony could ho given —
by ro-enaoting for thoir own government
tbo old Constitution, almost word for word.
May God help us, who bavo never, formally,
abandoned, to restore it to its pristine vigor
and uaofulneaa in nil tho States wbiob re-
uiu under the old dag!
Tho foregoing remurlta I bnvo deemed
uoaeeeary beforo procoediug to diaouss, ac-
cording 10 my design, the present war, ns n
oouatitutional mcnaure and its effeots upon
tho country- In the convention wbiob
formed tho Federal Constitution, I^dmuud
Itindulpb. ot Virginia, introduced a rosol
tiou, which he desired to inGornorolo in
that instrumeDl, authorizing tbe Govon
ment, io tho orunt that a State, or any Iwdy
of men within a State, should resUC tbo
lows' of Ihn United States, to calJ from
tbo remaining Statoa a foroo auffioh
to overoomo euch rnabit«notf and oompol
obediuuoo. Oa a saoooediug day, Mr. Put-
leraon, of New Joreoy, oflerod a similar
resolution, tboogh couched in diffiiront lau-
guago; indeed, it is eocnowbat remarkable,
(but tbu langongo of Mr. Liucola'a first
ptoolwnation, in Apnl, 1861. ia almost
wwd for word with tftat of Pattora

of the government under tbe L'
■ t make war upon diaobadie
lutes, no such idea existed,
linds of the movers in t

ons, orin thoBooftho ^

of the Convontion, otherrejse their njeclion
would not huve been placed upon grounds
ttolaBonialio to tho grant of auch power,
"- was sought (o bp conferred upon tho
ernmtnt by implication; hut on tbo
contrary, il can only bo oxerciaed by sub-
erling the Constitution and disregarding
ta plaiuest nnd most important principles,
.s 1 shall proceed to aboir. It willliu observ-
ed, first : That the Government of tho
United Slatea ie pnroly /nf/ero;, both in
form and aubstuuco. By which I mean, that
it derivea its nulbority irom the written
agreomont ot sovereign States who have nol
thcteby reiinquished any porfion of their
sovereignty. It is so in iorm; because tho
President is chosen by olcctora, selected by,
aud representing their aovernl States, us
distinct and seperate communities ; because
tbo Senate and lower branoh of Congress
are in like manner composed of rcprcaeota-
tivoa from tbo aevernl btitos, and arc not
taken from greater and less districts, carved
ont of the whole territory of tho Union;
and lastly, because tbe Supreme Court, al-
though chosen by tbe President and Sen-
ate, possesses a separate ond independent
jurisdiction within each State. It ia so iu
substance; because, although the Govern-
ment escrciaes certain powers over the citi-
zens of each State, it does so, by virtue of
tho same authority, preoisely, through which
tho State governments execute their func-
tions, vis: By the oousenl of tbe poopio
within each Slate, aepnratoly given. In
other words, both tho Federal and State
govorumonis derive their authority tciihin
each Stale, from tbe people thereof, nnd ac-
cording lo tho theory which formerly ob-
tained iu this ceiiQtry. are nothing more
thau agents of the people in each Stute. —
That this idea may bo rendered perfectly
plain, it is only neooasnry to remember ihat
neither the Federal nor Stale eo^eraments
are lovcreiffn, but the sovereignty resides
Ik (he people by uliom ikese governmenls
•.re CTtaled. Now, by whom was the Ped-
al Government inveeled with the sover-
eign powers, wluob it cierciees within tho
limits of Pennsylvania? Certainly by tbo
people of tbat Stale alone, for if they had
--fused tc adopt the Fadarol Oouatituliou,
would bave been inoperatik'o withiu that
State, even though it had received tbo
unanimous vole of tbe people in every other
Stale. Nor docs the fact of Ihe other Stdtes
having in like manner, ai Pennsylvania,
adopted the eanie common ugeut, render the

;trument creating auch agent any mo
IhB greot work of <i united people, than
each uf tho States had adopted for itaelt' the
s am a form of Stato govurnment established
by the othera. It is folly to contend tbat
the people of any Stale ever empoKOi
agent of their oivu creation to make wi
on themselves. Again, the Fedetal Gc

. no powers oicopt thoao

granted to it in tho ConatilaliuQ. Ttiis

limiCntiou of power would bo wholly inop-

' 'be CoQsiitultoa itself a useless

iustrnment, if Iho Government, notwith-

iding tbo timitatiou, eau enforce its

i within a disobedient State by oulting

the military power of ibo remaining

Stntes. Such n. ooustruotion tnkes from tbe

States the right to resist unconstitutional

logislatioui and niakea thg Federal Gi

ment the eole judge of the extent of its own

powers, thereby pinoiug tho people of each

tatato ut the mercy ot u Goreruuient of

their own creation.

Mtion or sanctioned by the people of tbe

those who make tbe assertion, and tbe evi-
dence is altogether against tli<am. I have
''.and wLI now proceed to show, tbat
against a Stato can only be prosecuted
" by subverting tbo Couatitutioa and disre-
garding ita plainest and luot^t important
principles." Tor this purpona tho Admin-
istration has furniabod the ovideuoo:

First. Tbe Presidont, by iaoreosing the
army and navy of tho United States, by
illmg large uumbera of men into tbe land
id naval eervloo. aud catling forth tho
ill tin without tho authority ot Congress,
IS violated the 8th Suction of tho 1st Ar-
ticle of tlio Constitution.

Second. Tho Southern ports have been
blockaded in violation of tbo treaties with
forciga Qalion-<, and of tbe Olh Section of
Artlolo lat of the Constitution.

Third. The writ of habeas eorput has
been suspended by the Presidont iu violation
of the 0th Section of Artie lo 1st of tho
Constitution,

th. Illegal eearcbes and seizares bave
lado under tbe authority of tho Pres-
ident, both of persons and property, in the
" loyal '■ States, in violation of tbo -Ith Ar^
tiolo of tbe Amendments to tho Conalitution.
Fifth. Congress bna passed a law for tbo
confiscation of Southern property, which
■ ae been approved byllin President, in vio-
itlouof tho nth Sectiou of Artiolo lat. the
3d Sao. of Article M of tho Coostitution,
and tho 5th Artiolu of Amendmeuta to tha
Consiitutiou.

Sii^th, Tbe President has iasued a proo-
lamation of freedom lu tho slaves within

every diolnte of humanity, precept of re'

wholly diaregardfd in the prose
the present war against the Sontli
aa declarations made by leading
of tbe Abolition party, that oven lo name
tbe Conatitntion in connoolion with tho
war, was treason lo the country. But those
whiob I have enumerated, ore .■surely
cient to satisfy every reasonable man that
tbe Administration, by its own acta and
confessions, has been unable to proset
lliii war without trampling upon that
■■' .-u-ni. I come now to consider tbe
'- ■ r eonaequonces of tho war. I have
. r,u,.ither place, that the disarilntion of
II' rniouwaa not caused by inlinrcnt da-
\-.-,^ lu tho Constitution, but Ihnt it
onused by repented attonipts, mnrle ii
aeotion of the country, to enlarge tho po
■if the General Govornment, and thus
tract those of tbe States, more than
p^ful, equitable or wise. To tboao who
:■ familiar with American hi-^tory, it ii
Ai known tbat much jealcnay and bitter
as of feohng eiisted among th" colonies,
ig anterior to tbe revolution of 1776, nud
this feeling especially prevailed between tho
colonies North nnd Sooth. Dr, Fraukli
whose political sagacity will not bn denied,
having watched thia feeling with much
toroat,nnd with uu eornest desire to roatoco
harmony, only two years beforo tbo " Dec
laration of lodopondenco " e.tpreased tha
' <tion that Che hand of God alone could
such discordant elements. Fifteen
years thereafter, when the Ccnstituti
submitted to tbe several Stati

ratification, wo find from Elliot's debates
tbat similar feelings of distrust, jealousy
nnd suspicion were r^ihibited by tbe mem-
bers both in speeches nnd rosciutiona. Not-
withstanding the existence of this feeling.

t on smoothly enough until the passage
of tbe Alien and Sedition laws, durlag John

and even afterwards, tbey demanded as i
right that they should ho permitted toforoe
upon the agricultural States, tbe products
of their faotorics at their own prices, by
means of tariffs excluding competition from
other lands. These demands wore ns strec
uously rcaisted by tbo South ns they wei
warmly urged by New England, and ulli
mately the Western States threw tbei
weight into the scale with the South. The
coalition between tho New England
faoturersnnd the Aboliiioniats, comuionocd
Ht this period, aod has

taiued. It was neoeasary to wean Ihe West
from the South, otherwise tbeaelSahschemea
of New England must fail, and as this could
not be affected by appeals to the inti
tbe former, rosort must be had to passion,
prejudice, hatred, nllof which may hBaummod
up iu tbo one word, Abolitionism. Who is
there, among our old citizens, who does uot
remember tho time when tbo Western mails
were filled wilb newspapers, pamphlets, &c,,

They did believe it, nnd from tho commenoe-
meut of tho war assumed tho tono of con-
querors, iuitend of tha conoilintory tono of
men who were bent on restoring tbo ancient
Union. At first it was hard to persuade
the Abolition Admiuiat ration that it was net
palitio to put to death, as traitora, tho pris-
ouors of war taken from Iho South; it waa
harder stilt to procure nn c\change of ptia-
oners, and it has been hitherto impossible
to convince this same nd mini strut ion that
the principles of wnr recognized nmcug dU
civilized aud christian nations, ahould bo
obaorved in Ihe contest with the Southern
States; principles which were only designed
to nmcliornlD the hovrors of war, and pro-
vent useless cruelty, and tbe recognition of
which would have saved tha people of the
North and West from the ehamo and humil-
iation which they must over osporionoo,
when the names of Bntler, " tho beast," of
I'urobin, " the brute," of Pope, tho en-
oourager of repine nod theft, of McNeil, tho
murderer, and of others of less note, ore
mentioned in their presence. The Soutli
can, and shall be coaqucrcd, said tbe Aboli-
tion Administration, and to cfieot tbia ond.
it assumed, aud still holds, a double, and
most ridiculous attitude beforo tho nations
of tho world. It claims, nt ono and tho
snmo time, all of tho rights which appertain
to a nation engaged iu war with a foreign
nation, and all, und more thau nil, the rights,
withinlho seceding States, of agovemment
over its own subjects. According to Mr.
Lincoln, the Coiifederot« Statca constitute a
a DBlioQ "de facto" lot blockading pui'-
posoa, and for tho exchuuge of priaonora of
war, while tho people of these Stales nro
subjects nf the Federal Goveramont, and
therefore liable to have their property con-
fiscated, nud their slaves liberated by law.
A greater absurdity then whiob, can not
well be imagined, or ono loss likely to bo
tolerated by loreignnalions, aa wo shall soon
discover wtien these oonflictiug claims aro
to be discussed. When Fremont was ia-
vosied with "Proconsular pcuBCTi," (Iquote
from himself,) in Missouri, ho undertook to
confiscate property and liberate slavca Ii^
proclamation, but every ono capable of roa-
sanjngon the GubJeoC, altribnlcdhis conduct
to the insane folly of a party dospot, whoso
head bad been turned by his advancement
to a position lor whiob noture had never de-
signed bim. Since then the Governmenl;
has fallen with deliberation into tha aamo
or, into which ita '■ proconsul " madly
ibed. The war bos been proseoutod for
nearly twenty months, nnd tbe South is not
yet oouquered, uor does tbat event BOeni
than it did twenty months ago. It is
easy task to aubjugato a bravo, uni-
ted and determined people, even with over-
whelming uumbera, bncKod by n long purse,
vast resources, and stimulated by hatred.
Men will not give up their lives, their hon-
ors, thoir couutry, without a straggle, not
until they have hurled every rook, which
lies burled in the soil, nt tho person of their
'nders. The Southern people bave been
QcousComcd to freedom and thoy love it!
Mr. Lineoln and his Cabinet should havo
thought of this before thoy commenced the
war Hud drove them to a united resistance.
If. howevoi', tbe South hnd boon, or shall
herenftor be, conquered, how will it affect
us ! Will tho Union, tbo old Union, bo re-
stored? I auHwer no — it is impossible!
Tho idea is vainer thau a aick man's dream.
The lion may, in tho millenium tie down with
tho lamb, hut ihc master and tlie slave Qim

paper a wider oircuintion.

Tub Crisis w'lll hereafter be the cheapest
paper pubUahed. Tho price wiU, therefore,
incline men to aubacriho for it. We shall
endeavor to make it hereafter, aa heretofore,
one of the best papera in the country inde-
pendent of its subscription price. We see
then no reason why it should not go into
every family, not carried o£F by the negro-
phobia.

Tuo ^ccelii ago we did not dreora of writ-
iag Bueh an article as this. Wo were re-
joiciDg with our Democratio friends over our
great Tiotoriea, and the CBlamities which we
all so fortunately escaped. Our subacrip-
tion list was very aotisfaclorily incrensicg
on the old basis of prices, and we feltivery
cheerful that oor worst trials were over, and
that the future of Iho Democratio cause
would brighten with each revolving auu.

Bat on Toeaday last wo weco notified that
the paper on which TOB CRIsrS waa prinUd
would be advanced lica dollars and a half
per ream— making ia one year a tai upon
ua of cightfen hundred doUan. On Mon-
day of thLB week we wero notified that we
would h&vo five per cent, lazes to pay on the
whole amount of our yearly purchase at this
high price, adding over lluec hundred dol-
lars more. Oa Saturday la^t. the printers
notified 03 that they had advanced their
prioea, and this will add several hundred
dollora more. We epeok plainly to oor lea-
dera. because from plain and candid speak-
ing they will know eiaotly how we stand.
Now two dollars a year is act much to our
subaoribers with fiucb a currency aa we have
got, hot to na, from several thonaand aub-
ECribers, it is a great deal, and will enable
us handsomely to weather this new storm.

Democrate, we know that you feel a lively
interest in our euctesa— we hove had
dences enough of this— «o feel confident
that you not only wish to see onr paper c
tinued, but that you nieh to eeo it live n
that full flow of determined spirit w
which it has been conducted heretofc
We oommenced under all possible disco
agementa. The Democratio party was i
most hopeless minority — the very
breathed hatred and violencoto everything
whioh did not succumb to official inaolouoe
and the throats of oftjcial tools, orosed with
power. Wo leave you to judge whether
WB did not atand up before this storm of
reproachful threnla, and the whirlwind of
slaudfcr and vituperation which filled every
bropse. From this almost hoptlesa minority
we marched together, stemming the current
of every speciea of opposition, until we
find outaelvea safely rejoicing in the sun-
light of one of tho moat remarkablo victo-
ries on the record of poliltcal rovololioos.
To do our duty, and successfully assist
in acoompliabing this great deliverance, wo
wero oiimpellod to throw ouraolvcs entirely
on the aupportof [he people, and trust lo
to them alono for out support. Wo intend to
pursao the same courso still, and, aa we
have already said, wo intend to do it with-
out adding anything to tho coat of our paper,
or levying u dime addiliouul upon our
friends by way of money, and only ask that
they give us an bour among their friends,
and wo will ride this now storm of Govern-

log this article, for we know our frieuda
would bl'ini.' aa had we failed to speak
plainly tu them. Wo owe no debt on our
paper — wr Ii/ivo no past arrearages to pay
of any conseqnonoo — wo speak of the
present, and more especially of the ftiture.
We muat prepare, and promptly, to moot
tho exlrcirdiQary advance in everything
hereafter. Credit is out of the (luestion,
and it would not do to trust to it, could it
bo obtained. We have no rich contracts to
fall back upon— no oflioial patronage to
make up deficiencies — no public swindles
to acdnce ua from the path of correct prin-
ciples, or render us cowardly ia the hour of

e trial.

Wo ore pleased to learn that tho money
raised for n monament to our murdered
friend and most estimablo fellow-oitisen. ia,
in part, to be appropriated to hia widow and
child, We know, from o convoraation wo
had with the deceased in oor offioo a few
days before ho was murdered by tlio Aboli-
tion fiend, Brown, that he waa poor. Ho
had invested his all in tho Empire office,
but owing to the difiioalties bo bad to con-
tend with, in the monstrous struggle to
maintain his position and vindicate the free-
dom of tho press, he had sunk pretty much
all that he had invested. Tbe Abolitionials
had withdrawn every dollar of patronage
from his daily columns, and they were the
main business men in Dayton. They re-
fused, of coarse, to subscrlbo for his paper
and so fnr as their influence and thrcata
could go, they prevented timid Democrats
from supporting the Empire by threats of
violence and loss of custom. No ono can

e very important ordci

quorum, and bo able to transact business.

We Lave received several letters urging

that a Slate Convention may be held on the

8lh of January. Tbo question should be

decided, and decided at once. Tho people

restive under their recent violories and

not wish to retire from the contest as

though their work was done. Wo see this

every hand ia the immeuee out-pourings

by way of "jubilee gatherings." There is

11 positive character to tlieae

gatherings, wholly unusual. They tell a

9 which the mere calculating politician

I more than likely overlook, and desiro

disregard by some preleit or other, for

other than patriotic motives.

t is the duty of those who may tempo-
ily hold truala as committees, to so act
t publio opinion and feeling may have a
clear field of action, and not to chock it by
considerations of policy — o thing they know
more about than tho people themselves,
mmittees aro not made to control or di-
it public opinion, butmerely to act ia ao-
dance with it.

W>i were surprised to see au article in
the Slates'iian of Sunday morning, attempt-
ing to show that nominations, made on the
8th of January had been failures, while
thoso made at u later day had been success-
lul. We never saw so fallaoioos, unjust
and illogical an article put before the pnb'
lie. Had tho Slalesinan gono a few yours
farther back, it would have refuted itself by
its own facta.

One of tbo instnncoa given by ihe .Sim
man of a late oouvention, grew out of the
adoption of tho new Conatitntioo, which did
not tako place until June.

The truth ia. oud so every Democrat

How will the Slalesman ooeount for

telegraphers who linng around tho a»iiy
Eastern papers and make condoneed acwnj
out of the windy army correspondence
they pick up in said papers, wo ahoulj
bo very barreu. even in imaginary nowa.

Gen. BtiRNSinE is at Falmouth, on tbe
loft bank of Iho Rappobanuook, oppodia
Fredericksburg. Ho ordered tho rcmotij
of tho women and children from tho toim,
as he intended to shell it from tho oppnsiio'
bonk of tbo rivor. Uo gave thom umji
neit day to evacuate. That was abAl q
week ago ; since then we have bad very Ut- '
tie news. Tho railroad trains wore leavio*
continually, currying off the inhabitaoU wd
such nrlieles as they could pick up in th«ir
haalo.

Every ono is looking for a battle in list
vicinity. Lonqstrket is reported lobe in
command on the right bank, with lialtetiea
planted to resist the crossing of BuKNaiDE, I
Whet occasions the delay is not eiplainej.
Some suppose it Is to give Hookbr time to j

some point, not far distant, oaJ

of the mountain gaps to cut him off. Bnl
it ia uaelDss lo coojectnro; it is safest lo '
wait and see where lUey all turn up.

At all other points. South and West, w,i
hear of little else than great prepirah"i)n3
making for a winter campaign. AU these
are kept, of course, more or lesa secret, bat
it is flupposod tho great movement on the
Slissisaippi is directed towards Vicfcabuigti.
Very grave charges have been madf.
against General Curtis for using his army
to seize cotton for a set of speculators, of
which bo was ono of tho partners, while a!
Helena, Arkansas. Curtis' ehare of the
stealings are reported lo amount to $700,-
000. Are there ony of the partners in this
city? If so, It may account for the very
sensitive articles in tbo Ohio Slate Journal
on Curtis' cotton speonlotions. The thing
looks very suspicious, and the Journal an!
■undings are overy suspicious set of
apecublora.

1 rumor is that General Pope is order-
St- Louis and General Curtis is rc-
lieved-

Tlio Grand Jury, at the present sitting
of Judge Bate3' court, have made, so it is
a long report on our County Jail.
Thoy condemn, in round terma, the whol*
structure of the jail, its dark and unhealthy
cells, its oommiugliog men ond women, tvilb
nothing between thom eicept a " loard
petition ;" and close with a recommendslion
oudoo tbe thing altogether and buUd a
ine. Wo recollect well when this "nen
jail," as it was called, was built by a oliqae
of speculators. It was puffed before and
afterwards — puffed all tho way throngb, by
the city papera us ono of tho noblest apeei-
[*n* of arohitecturo en record.
Now it ia condemned in tola as a misenble
fair, by tbe Grand Jury, and a oeif Jul
commended lo be built.
M. B. Bateham, it is said, drew there-
port and rocommenda thu bailding of a new
iail lor tho reason that our soldiers will be

St. Paul, Nov. 1(5,
Although the elooUoQ returns ace not yet
mplele, enough is known to increase the
Ropubliean mnjoritios ovor thoao intimated
lost week. Donnelly is elected in the North-
n District by probably 1,500 luajotity,
id Windom in the Southocn by near a
thousand. Notwithstanding this is worse
than anticipated, the Democracy have gain-
ed between three and four thousand ovor
their adversaries since last year. In the
Legislature we will havo twenty membora.
to fourteen last year; not a very great in-
crease, but enough to show what might
have been done, and will be done nest year,
.As a Senator ia to be elected, we may us
well resign ourselves to tho fate of another
Black Republican to fill tho place of Mr.
Rioe. Tho feud between Aidrich and Ram-
sey— the chief competitors — Brows instead
of diminishiDg. and may result in tbroiviog
both overboard, although tbe probabiiiti
are that tbe usual Republioan tactics n
bo resorted to with success — buying one
■he contestants off with aouio prominent
Ted oral oppointment!

Our "Indian war" is peaceful. Gen.
Sibley, under orders from Gen. Pope, de-
stroyed all tho Indiana" crops, nnd has
brought some 1800— most all women and
children— to South Bend and Fort Snelling,
to feed at Government expense? Gen.
Pope'a two thonsand horaoa ore dying by
the half (core daily at Fort Snelling from
starvation and esposure, while the fort ad-
joining is filled with soldiers and aer?anta,

L reosonable terma. Gen. Pope himself
and bia immortal staff, have been inconti-
nently transferred to Madison, Wisconsin,
as Ihe Headquarters of the Northwest. Ho
felt comfortable away up here, so far out of
tho reach of Stonewall Jackson- can't im-
agine how he will like getting any nearer.
His distinguished services as commander of
the Deiiartment of tbe Northwest, enlille
him to be " laid up ia lavender" tho balance
of his natural life.

The warriors who S'jrrendered to Gen.
Sibley, of whom aome hundred and twenty
havo been convicted, have been ordered
kept in confinement, and not executed at
present. When tbo General was conduct-
og them Ihroagh New Ulm, the sheriff
served a writ for their surrender to iho civil
ithoriliea — many of tho murders having
been committed in that (Brown) county.
Of course the General paid no regard to
this— when the women got after the Indiana
(chained in pairs) and with clubs and atonoa
made the blood flow from several, aod n
tb difficulty dispersed by ihu military.
Messrs- Usher iV Whiting, who have been
out here for several weeka, investigating for
the Department as to the causes of ibe out-
break und ita remedy — have gone up to the
Chippewa Agency, where Hole-io-the-Day
threatened ugain lo become troublesome.
Of what nature their report will be, is nol

of a century, (with short intorcala,) until
Abraham Lincoln, who claims to bo tho
fathiT of the Irrepressible Conflict doolriiie,
nns rleoted to the Presidency by a minori-
ly lit '■>ver ono raillloo, pledged vo the Chi-
cago platform and Higher Law doctrine,
commenced his paricidal prograinroe of tho
elevation of the black man (and the natural
consequence,) tbo dcEradatioii of tho white
and thereby well nigh ruined this, the
government on earth. Tho almost
ruin of this great goverumeut by tho
present dominant party, bhould lench the
American people n ponderous rind impor-
tant truth. And what Istliat truth ? That
a Domooratlo government, instituted
by the father of Domooraoy, (Thomas Jef-

firm old hero, (Jackson,) and can only be
carried forward with success nnd prosperity

spirit which put forth its sacreligious hand
and plucked

dnously warned Iho people everywhere, of
16 inevitable result of a sectional anti-sla-
very higher law agitation.

You and I, Gov. Medary, have always
hern loyal to the Conatilution of out coun-
try, loyal to tho interests of every Stale In
our Confederacy, loyal to every section, nnd
tho entire Union, loyal to tho flag of our
fnlbera, and the hopes of mankind. Those
higher law men who now denounce us aud
tbo Damoorallo party as traitors, in pas'
times have derided us as " Union Savers ;''
for ycara they sullenly nullified the Constitu-
" , resisted tho eieantioQ of the laws, aud
lUragedtbosQ who pronounced the Union

Wo feel that The Crisis has. and is now,

The condition of the peoplo of Missouri

Tho transactions of the Govemment milita-

Every Democrat in the North knows very

The Cusc ol IPcLcr BlcOiiei

We have iutended several times, to uotiue
the iii-prisoument of Peteu HEFPHIiR. an
ugcd Germon, noturulieed some dozen years
ugo.

Peter IlEi'fNBR is a citizen of Molgj
County, Ohio, ond resides a few miles ftom
Pomotoy, the County seat. By his own
honest industry, ho putcliased a few years
ago, ft little farm I'll wbiohho resides. When
tbe war broke out, u. young German hired
to work upon his *avm, joined tlio Regiment
lakiug up ill tbat County, and went to the
ars. Sir. Hepfser himsolf had been a
jldieriuEurnpe, ond terved a full term in
the army of In- country.

tuai summer Mr. Hiii'FSKR was at
Pomeroy with bis wagon, ond on bis return
home overtook one of his neighbors, ao
Aboliliouist, on foot, and invited him to ri^e
wagoo. While prooeodiug uu tboii
^ny this Abolitiouisl asked HufPNER if he
had beard from hia young man iu tbo army.
Mr. Hf.fpsei* said "no." Tbe Abolitionist
thou said that tbo young man was shot dead
the Cold in a recent balllo. Mr. Heff
NKR, in hia very broken Engliah sold, " da
lab goot," meaning, as ho testifiud, and all
the facts iu the caao corroborated it, that il
was QOoA that tho young man wos killed at
once, instead of being wounded aud left tt
suffer a thousand deaths, before his final
death struggle. Mr. HdppneR had beun a
soldier, and every ooo knows that the sol-
res actual ond sadden death, in
preference lo mortal and lingering wounds.
But this deotaration wos enough for this
black hearted ubolltionist- he had found a
? of democratie .teceili. Forgetting
(he kindness— aa such scoundrels always do

of a tide home, ho prooeodod to enter

complaint against Mr. Hepfnhr, and bad
bim sent to Camp Chase, whore he remained
close confinement for "dialuyolty" near
0 montba ! His crops went Ut ruin, nnd
lost u wheat crop, ns it was too late to
w when ho regaiuod hia liberty from the
loath so mo prison.

This old man llod from a land of despot-
ism, as ho supposed, lo ono of freedom, ond
found himself within the walla of a. prison,
on the false charges of a perjured villoiu!
—tbo act performed by official tools for the
foes I— tho plea set up, " to free tho negro,"
"lo eavo tbo Union," nnd preservii th<
" best government on earth."

MORAb:

A Democrat was punished, nnd ao uboli

Ilia rpsignntion in 1807, to accept the posi-
of United Stales Senator, Thomas
Kirker, being Speaker of tbe Senate, be-
--.mo Acting Governor.

In Ihe folloning year uu election lor Gov-

nor took place, and, as far as votes wert
concerned, it was decidedly in fovor of Ito-
turn J. Meig*, who but a few months before
was serving as United States Judge of Jli
chigan Territory, But his election was sue
oesafully contested before the Legialalurt
by bis opponent. General Kathaoiet Massie
" on tho ground that he had not been a real
dent of the State four years neit preceding
election, as tbe Constitution required."
General Unssie, however, was too generous

locBpt an office when a majority of tho
. iple bad voted against bim, and therefore
ho immediately resigned, which of course
coatinned Thomas Kirker as acting Gover-

>r until tbe succeeding year.

In March, ISIJ, Governor Moige received
from President Madison, the appointment of
Postmaster General, when he wns succeeded

office by Othniel Looker, of Hamilton

'unty. Speaker Allen Trimble became
acting Governor in 1622. on (he election of
E- A. Brown, to take tho place William A.
Trimble in the United States Senate- In
18-14, having accepted from President Polk
tho position of Minister to Meiico, Wilson

favor of TbomoB W. Bartloy- Reuben
Wood's second inauguration did not take
place in 1S51, but on January 12th, 1852.
and in July, 1833, he filed with the Secreta-
ry of State hia resignation that bo might fill
tho post of nUnister to Chili which hod been
tendered to him by President Pierco. Lieut.
Governor Wm. Mcdill became acting Gov-

CoiiibHt Bciwecii n Hawk and a

Palbau

10 LoiveH Courier siys : "We bavo
informodoC a singular combat that took
plaooiu Pelhau, N. H., n few days since,
DOtwcDU a hawk and u black snake. Mr.
iluier, while walking in a field in
camo upon a bawk and a black
a, lifo aud death struggle. FroDi
appearance, the hawk made a descent upon
the snako with Iho expectation of making
an oaay ptoy of it. hut the reaull was fatal
to both. The snuko, which was firmly held
tbe talona of ibe hawk, had managed to
get a coil around the wing aud una leg, in

snob a manner ns to prevent tho bird from
disengaging itself, but Ibe snaho's body had
been picked and torn by the hawk, whose
head and neck woro at liberty. Appuroiitly
the hawk stood the best chance of winning
tho fight, as tbe snake appeoted to be pretty
nearly used up; but tho struggli
have proved fntnl to both had not i _.
tiemau put nn end lo it by dispatching the
combatants. The snake mas three feet and
ten inches long, nnd unusually heavy for it=
length. The Jhnwk. from tip to tip of the
wings, measured precisely the same.

How [be Frcocli Econoinize-

Thero are few American families wbo
low exactly tho oipecaesofa year; tbey
all know probably that it coats '
many hundred or thousand dolla;
whole. But overy European family knows
tbe espnnse of every year, of every mon''
day or boor — the eiact cost ol every di
ner, supper or breakfast, of every morsel
tbey eat. of overy drop tbey drink. Every
German and French hoosewife knows not
only bow much tbo meat, potatoes and
bread of any meal have cost, but aho the
water in which she bus cooked them, and
the coal or wood shobas burned to boil tbe
Iter. It is infinitely amusing to an Amer-
an Io observe such a menace.
In Paris there is no aqueduct, the foun-
tains of the oily belong Io Iho Government,
aud the water ia sold by barrels and pails
full to water oarriera, who supply families
much a gallon. In a house of five
storiea (hero aro two families on each floor,
making ten who ascend tho same staircase,
up which all articles for family use maat be
carried. Jt is a rule that water, coal and
all heavy articles must be taken op before
noon, and about that time the fonricrge
oloons the hall aad stairs, nndtboy mnat be
kept clean for callers in tho afternoon. In
every kitchen is a receptacle for water, con-
sisting of an oblong boi. containing two or
more pailaful, aooordingto tbe means of tbe
family or their ideas of cleanliness. In one
er of tbe bos ia a small portion of por-
stono, which serves aa a filter, and to
wbieb ia a sepatato foocet. The porleur
brings two large pails fall of vrater for three
cents, and conies overy morning. It is
theretoro very oosy to know bow much the
'ater costs in which the dinner is boiled.
In the same kitchen is a bos for coal,
'bioh contains the quantity for which Ibey
pay forty cents, and they know eioctly how
many meals can bo cooked with this qnanti.
If they have guests to dinner, they nae
ostro qoantity of water and coal, and
know how many cents worth are devoted to
each guest, and then of courae they know
if they can afl'ord to invite anybody again.
Tbey know e.taofly bow much of overy
article is used every day. The streets of
lined with small groceries, where
every thing ia purchased by tho cent's
worth, and aro oortainly very convenient for
people who earn only a few cents per day.
family comes into iho neighborhood
does not patronli:e these small shop
keepers, it is considered a great injustice,
and we hove known them to commence a
regular poraecution of aucb a family, an-
noying them in every possible way. They
keep coffee, burnt nnd ground, sugar, pow-
dered and in Inmpa, tobacco, liquors aud
every household article, iu infinitely fimnll
quantities.

The morning meal in every French fami-
ly ia bread and coflce. what they call cafe
au lail, und is made of equal portions ol
coffee nnd ohiokory placed in a biggin, up-
■hicb hot water is poured so long as il
through black. Of this they take two
spoonsful to a half pint of boLliuc milk.—
Three or five cents worth of eoQee is pur-
chased every day, and the milkman ami ba-
ker come ovary morning.

The second meal is al noon, though it is
colled breakfast, and ia merely a luncheon,
cold, or the remnants of yesterday's dinner.
For these two no cloth is put on Ibe table,
nnd all cereinony is unuecossary.

Tbe dinner is at six, and consists of moat
and one vegetable, and sometimes a salad,
I have seen a piece of ineut. cooked with-
out onions and garlic, and swimming in gra-
vy. Tbo ealad is dressed with oil nnd vine-
gar, tbe rule being a Bpoontnl uf vinegar
and three of oil, with pepper, salt and mus-
tard, nnd also alittle onion and garlic. The
meneemenl of dinner is of course soup,
;his is invaluable in overy oontiuental
ily. There are also soup shops, where
_ nt or a quart can be purehaaod every
day. between four nnd bis. But us often as
00 or twice o week thay hava a boiled
iner what they eaXlfot uu /eu. In Ameri-
tho liquor in whiob meat und Tcgeluhles
n boiled for such a diauar are thrown
away. It must certainly contain the beat
juice of the meat, aud bo very good and
nourishing. In Europe it is every drop
saved and eaten. They fill on earthen pot
with meat and ypgetables,u6vor omitting tbe
Bt it boil away one-half. For
I, they soaaoa it with pepper, and
Bometimes with sorrel, parsley and "
herbs und spices, aud thicken it with
__!__„!__ mba of bread. Whelbei

ot, it certainly seems too good
to throw uway. American housewives, wbo
may bo obliged to practice economy, ouu

The dessert is almost iurariohly bread
and cheese iu winter, with a little comfiluro.
Hay that every family
lives in Ibis way, but I have been iu many,
little differeuoe. One ia ejpectod
to take u bit of cheese about an inch eq uare
and a teaspoonful of comSture. The little
shop windows arc also lined with jars of .

This letter, as well as tbo one which pi
cedes It, may, apparently, wonder from t
sutijeot suggested ia its oaption. But.
false notions of slavery onJ liberty bare
takou possession of the public mind,

1 national disorders, we deeca it proper
lice remote causes before considering
tho^ wbioh are more direct.

No man is entirely free, but ontbi
ry, all are dopendant and oppressed. Tbey
oppressed by nature, from whiob condi
1 tboy flee to a state of society, and
thereby acquire civil liberty — tbe only true
liberty which tbe author oi our being bi
vouehsafed to man. Natural liberty — tbi
condition which a man may be coDsidered
to occupy, outside of society — is, of nil ci
ditions, tbe most oppressive -. for as ctiao
being of many wants, which he is, of hi
self, unable to supply, nataro becomes his
greatest oppressor- But, when bo enters
society and becomes assisted by those
bom ho in turn assists, ho then escapes
from nature's burdens, and becomes com-
paratively free. But as he retreats from
the burdens of nature to a condition of civil
liberty, he must relreat until be finds a
point at which his own nature is easy : or
rather, as the human mind is never entirely
satis6ed. lo a point at wbioh it is easiest.
Thus civil liberty, which is defined lo bo
'■natural liberty so far restrained, and no
farther than is essential for the public
good," is to bo Bfcertainedi not by any
general rule, but by the nature of tbe being
whose status is to bo delormiued.
The white man, who crowns the world of
ilmated iiature. who is far-seoing and self
'liant. requires a condition in Eooiety wbioh
usti at k-asi, moke him the custodian of
s own porson. But not so with the negro>
) is n on -self-reliant — is oppressed bye are
id cnnnoti as tbe white man can, buttle
with nature's oppressions; consequently bo
a step farther from natural
liberty, to God his appropriate civil etatus.
As he retreats he surrenders his person with
09 another's property.
Uut that ho thereby sinks, as does the
white man under tbe same relation, in*
idition of oppression, is u proposi-
tioti wbicb the whole negro world dis-
proves. He simply retreats from uature'a
burdens to a point at wbicb, under anoth-
' I shelter, lie Guds bis own standard of
il liberty. He then, and uot till then,
becomes happy, multiplies with the greatest
rapidity, and lives to the greatest old iLge,
Weights are no burdens when they opor-
e as oor supporters. Every ordinary
;ed man is ascertained to bear a weight of
thirteen or fourteen tons of almoapherie
pressure, yet, this weight, which as ordin-
ary freight, would crash us to atoms, as ut-
lo^phere, is essentint to our support; so,
10, as a general rule, is a master to (he ne-
gro.

Some Engbeb words, when applied to bo-
ings of opnosile natures, vary their signili-
* . Tae word slavery belonga lo this
To the white mau it implies tbe op-
ot freedom, bat to the negro it raero-
iy implies a condition — a condition of owner
and owned, in which only the negro is ena-
bled to bufree — freed from natuie's burdens,
that he can be socially happy. The
te mau cannot live out his own nature
I be owned by nnotbcr. The negro can-
live out bis unless be is owned. Thus
they opposite in their natures, and in
that opposition is slavery one's oppression
id the other's freedom.
Id entering society tbe negro surrenders
s natural liberty to a master who gives
back so mucb as he deems proper for tbe
good of his property. This is the negro's
slavery: and is tbe conditioa of ivhick all
abolitionists complain. But v^herein does
the negro thus conditioned differ, theoreti-
cally, from a subject of the British orown.
By the theory of Britain's government, all
rights are asenmed to havoTieon originally
surrendered to tbo monarch ; who, in turn,
gave back such privileges as wore deemed
proper for the general good. The analogy,
of condition, between tbe EDgllshman and
wilt bo seen, is muob closer than
Englishmen may possibly like to admit- It
ia so close that a fluent abolitionist can as
effectually prove, from admitted theories,
thut Englishmen are slaves, as (hat slavery
' its in any of the American States. We
aot, of course, pretend to say thut Eng-
lishmen aro slaves. But wo present the
analogy to show hon- easy it is for vicious
.0 slander any institution that buuiani-
ly may invent.

A well fed uegio shows bis keoping us of-
feotually us does a well kept horse. But a
free negro — tliat is, ouo cast upon thn world
without uu owner — soon, unless epeoially fa-
vored, shows marks of trouble and ncglool.
Bo looses his gloss, beeomos dull in color,
and as the statistics of our oountry show,
gradually passes into decline. The Eastern
aud Middle Stales have but barely kept up
ibeir numbers of negroes, notwithstanding
they have been constantly reinforced by fu-
and munumitled slaves from the coun-
lib of I^Iasou'auodDiion'a lino. Con-

to htm Ibat tbo sword could do tbo whole work,
lut that, inevitably, wo would have to come bock
to tbo original point lo compromiso and aattle.
" " nnot fight always, what amount of

and whilst the lime to ccaie fighting may nol bo

Certuinly tbe object of Ibe war, and the exleat

the sword must bo hept In constant motion and

for it will require a formidable ormy ia reach of

though there might remaio a Union, composed of

Wo italicize tho sentence which is tho
Jilt of tbo Bobjecti but we oonfeas that the

I'ort Sumter under the pretext of provia-
'■'tiiog the Fort, and which was instantly
^^llowcd by a coll for troops. Wo believed
f'oio the first that If an effort at compromise
'« refused by the Republicans, and a war
'^uguraled, it would ho a party war. nnil
"'ended fur parly purposes,

We are now led a little further into this
^rdorioua proceeding, by Mr. Giddings,
*no very candidly informs us, (we wiab he
^ titnety iDfonned us), " That the Presi-
'■Dt wna elected with an under alanding
'"ODg the people, thai any civil ilrifc that
"'fftl ariie, trflj (0 be quieted according to
'^ folify of the liepuhlican parly," &c.

'Who had this " unc(<r» tanking .'" What
!^plo nnderatood ilT Tho liepnbUcan
''^Bt«, of course. We all know Uiat euoh
'^V'^teritanding was not with the Demo-
"sla. In fact, many Democrats slubbomly

refused to lielitvo Ihat the Ropublioans i
contemplated a "civil strife.'- We ki
they did intend it, espeoially tho radloal
portion of them— wo lioewtboy were mak-
ing (heir estimutcs acoordinglyi but ire did
not know that it was an " underatandiog "
among them na n party, oven to tho mosiis
and manner of quieting it.

It ia true, Mr. G1ODIHO8 does not fully
inform us what this peculiar ooolraot or
underatanding contained in nil its dolnils,
:cppt it was lo lo on tho Republican plat-
form, and by tho HepubliQan party. From
is time forward tbia Rgpuolican Policv
lo be foliowod out. Of that wo havo no
doubt. Mr. Lincoln tetla ua that now, and
in a fen- weeke. if not earlier, we shall have
his oOttr proclamation freeing tho slaves.

Now, aa there wnsnn nnrffrXaniiing-from
the first that there was to bo ■' civil atrifo,"
end that it was lo bo settled on the;jar(j pol-
icy of the Rcpubliearti, and two years havo
been iooled airay in fooling tho Democratic
party by sonao had luok or bad ideas of Mr.
Lincoln in tho outset, wo aal:, as a maltei
of right and justice, if the Democrats who
fooled into the arojy by Likcols's
foolishness, which is now abnodi-ned, should
not (this avowal that tbo war is ond
understood to be a Republican war.)
|V6 the Democratd from any farther (
iction therewith; and as Mr. Lincoln is
himself dismissing all tho Democratic offi-
;ht stand in the noy of the lio'
publioan policy, whether tho Demooralio
privBtea ahould not havo tho ohoioo either
return homo, on an honorable discharge, 1
n, nsthey might oleol?
they were stumped inio the aervic
by what is now admitted, nod which we from
iggested from certain faots
leaking out, under false protensos. they cer-
tainly should have a chance to decide whether
the truth has been so
candidly and publicly stated. If, as the
Republican paperu insist, tho whole army,
nearly so, is made up of Republicans,
tho loss will be but slight, if this, iit loost
should be given by a very
dishonorable party, Theyooghtto do ut least
rbich the world would upplaud na

-wrongs without any legal e

ind tbe controversies
I out of it, and Ihe new
n lime to time it haa been
uotbin^ has ooourrcd of
equal imporlnnce — noibing of higher a«aur-
lor ila truthfulness baa appeared than
vidence given in the above extract. It
should, and we hope it will, receive the
largest possible attention, aud bb given the
widest possible range of publicity.

Those Democrats, at least, of high posi-
tion and ioflueQce who orged Demoerals to
enlist, and told them e. tale so diametrically
opposite to the above and to tho truth, one
mselves and tho poor follows thoy
got into tho army, of iiko politics with their
rn, to aeo that no further bnrui comes to
om or their eufforing families; aud do-
and of Ihe authorities at WashiogtoD,
th tbo same boldness they plend for en-
listments, fbaljuaticehedonenot onlyfAtm-
r(i'(i but those they persuaded to onter the
[Tvice to fight, as they snpposed, fur tho
Inion. when it was only for the "liopuhli-
ao party," or Republioau policy, ood
hich they had an undtritanding among
lemaelves should be settled by themiielves
Baparly >n*ajur£ ; and that 6uoh soldiers
be releasndfrom a centraot void for waut of
good faith — void for the want of u consid-
eration.

Tho very elect have been deceived ; aud
)w tbe deosption is exposed and admitted,
thero is no exouee longer to aover it over
or make eiouaea for those
from policy, longer excuse
themselves.

Let no one troat this lightly; it can not
passed over. It is flpokon by authority
and posted on tho very door-post of tho
tfrmple that all who pasa may read.

We do not see but what it is a piece of
ipudont intrusion for any man, not of tho
ItepubUcan faitb, and a party to tho " un-
derstanding," to be in the army. Ita very
iStitutional orgauization, by appoint-
:, selected by tho authorities on party
groonda, aa far us it could be dono to got
army at all. when tho volunteore should
"> elected their own oEoora, aa was their
right, shows that from the first there was a
design, which It would not bo safe to make
public, and many and ofton has been the in-
quiry, what it all mount ?

But no one could give more than an
pinion, and that opinion subjooted tho
author to tbn charge of diiloyally, and
ight arrest, and tho bastile bis
doom. Such were tho threats and terrors
held over the people, that for a Umo few be-
lieved it worth while to protest or oipose
what they bolievod errors of the groasest

charfloter
thority.

Those times ore past, and oven our politi-
col enemies are coining to the relief of the
popular credulity aud oonfesding the whole
programme, ou long ago, cveu before the
election, entered into, aio
delivered ot Chioago, nnd now In full tide
of eiperiment, after a two years" practice
on fraudulent pretences, as wo ato inform-
ed by Joshua R. Gidpikcs.

derstandiog was to be oarriedout,
lutbority tell.i ne, in btith tbe mili-
tary and civil departments ; and it accounts
fully— and it is the first light we have bad
which ever did eiplain wliy Mr. Lwcoln
picked for oivil apjiointmenta from among
t radical, the most brainless and
ehuracterlegs of all his I'oHowere, lo fill all
tho offices, with only here and there an ei-
cepliou, both in (bo foreign and homo offi-
cial ,itatioa3. To havo voted for Mr. Lm-
COLX was of [10 avail if n man had any
modified views on Abolitionism, or brains
and a oharrictor for uprightness. Hu must
bo of tlie radical stamp — a ranting Casitts
or a piottjng Chase, to roceivo favors. —
This was carried out from tho highest to tho
ft oivil office : and now nnd hereafter it
bo be atriotly observed In the military
offices.

To what end all this will lead it ia not an

easy tn tell, but that no good and noth-

evil mast overtake the militnry as

it has tho civil branch of tho Govemraent,is

matter of course.

EVBOPEIN INTERFERENCE.

Wo at last have the Koropeao movement

of whicb we have beard s" mncb. Ithes

'ry month we predicted, ond I1
much more meaning in it than app'^ars upon
its face. Prance would not have made this
movement without the countenance of Eng
land and Russia. If we understand the in^
timatioDS from Washington, tbe Frenoh
later b3S already informed our Govern-
it of the purposes of the French Gov-
eniment.

In this neither England not Russia
ticipate, but ngroo lo sustain Franc
doing 80. France will become theodvocate
and friend of tho South, and England
tend to bo the friend of tbo Nortli,

truly desiring to see our country

united and poworfid, will, from a measure of

idence, keep aloof, hoping that Bomething

may occur to roaloro us to one people and

10 nation.
What we dread moat is that France and

England ralhor look to afinftlBeparation, and
settlement of terms to suit themselves,

rather than ns. Franco basnnimmenee army
Mexico steadily moving towards that Capi-
I, while both Pranoo and England have
imense lleeta In the Gulf aud near onr hat-

Te speak of theso rhinja as coutingen-

whichour statesmen, who really desire

fature reitoced to that of tbo past, mnat

not overlook. Dad wo the least confidence

in tho jodgments, common aonse, or hou-

■.y of those in authority in Waahiogton,

0 would not havo so many fears of tbo

futuio. But. OS it is, we aen no means of

OBoape from ruin, unless tbe States oanrro-

•talus, ood when the worst gets

to tbo worat, meet in convcolion and re-

idel their own intercourse and oonneolion

a basis of peace. Any kind of peaoo

11 restoro the people to thoir rights and
the States lo their dignity, and will soon ho

■d by a disouBflion of oar ofi'aira, so
that we can see really whore wo stand.

At present wo are fighting political ques-
tions very muob in tho dark, Ijocauso wo

presenlative of tbe ideas which created
ir government ; or, eronfcrso, no war could
ive been possible, unless provoked and
fostered by men instinct with tenets nnd
passions utterly incompatible wltli tho genius
of our institnlions- No war can be con-
ducted to an end in hnrmoDy with those in-
ilitulions, by men. the vitality uf whose
listory and actions aro of ncbnrucler essen-
tially antagonistic to tbo very nature of
■' institutions. iVo siiecest even, and,

tbey have no other denned governmental
principles to guide them, or through which.
' rhicb, they may guide the war. Here-
have the key to the origin of the war.
tbo solution of its failure up to tho present
time, the index of its futuru history.

If the war shall last till tba term of tho
present Adoiinistrntion shall end, it will be
protracted through plunges into greatci-
and greater confusion ; adding immeasurably
by its protraction to the diuoulties of un-
rnvelliug the knotted and twisted woof, by
Democratic hearts, beads nnd bauds, wbicb,
when entirety accomplished, will bnvo but
restored us to where we started trom. and
proved tho only intelligenoa cnpable of di-
recting such a war to a benelicial end, nnd
at the some time tbe hoUownoss of getting
into it Bt nil.

; has been tho habit, partly from want of
prehension nnd partly from design by
unscrupulous, to limit the range of
Lion and reason by isolated facts i
senlimeuts. The slogan of "Tho War for
Union," nnbnlaiiced tbe eqiiilibriun
idreds of thousands -, the patriotic but

ig impulse which so saturates tbe

Ileio wo bnvo Iho icorlcuig plan fir the
construction of another sort of mill, Iho
property of other owners than our " Pro-
I visional Qoverumcut." Its machinery Is

,t is evident that tbo people should ha
ipnred to expect very shortly one of two
things : either peace at an early day, oi
a determined Abolitionizcd prosecu-
tion of tbo wor, as will renew, in so aggra-
vated a form, tbe gross tyranny in the North,
must lead to a popular bloody revolution.
It may bo that tbe very imminence of "for-
eign intervention" may operate upon
lutioQ now supreme iu high placei
deter from that peace otherwise ready for
declaration. So terrible a complication may
instrucd as favorable to lashing thi
country into a fever suffioiont lo tolerate
both iho grossest despotism at h(
abolition doslruclion of the North and South.
This is a presumption fairly deducible from
the folly of tbe past. But suob an exten-
of rootless folly oau but double tbe
force of the recoil sure to follow.
Bouablo amount of national pride
inceit can tnko care of us very long in a
nr with tbe South nnd England and Franoi
Should wo incur such n responsibility, ni:
licnal humiliation is thereby necessitated,
Ihe Tiature of Oie case, which all our na-
tional ei^rif cannot change — and tbe spirit
hich incurred it cannotnvoid being sought
nd found nnd punished, in that wbioh delie^
and invited ruin, for Iho sake of Ibe |;ratiG
cation of a passion to destroy our lorm o.
govnrnmeut, in order tbnt slavery might be
ubolishod, and a tyranny over tho noia an '
minds of men ho cslnblisbod.

" Foreign inlarvonlion " can only ho pti
lailltd by tbe same blind or maddened folly
whlcb conducted us into tbe war, and bus
conducted iia so injuriously thus far Ibrough
It. Its end coo unly bo so unhappy that
tho heart of honest pntriollaoi turns aick-
" from its conii^mplation. Yet only
igb thn excuse of that intervention can
ll be duomcd pos!,ible that the Administra
* , nill longer nllempt, or tho people lulo-
I, tbut nbolitionized, tyrannous proseou-
lion of tbo war abcvontluded to, which must
lead to the convulsions indicated. Infatua-
tion will itself quail beforo tho storm so
clearly brewing, unless It olutohas at tbe
new lease of life and power foreshadowed
through even iuovitnhle. final anarchy and
Infamy.

Tbo pcliUcal revolution which has boon
lately so general. Is indicative that tho peo-
plo'o uiinda nto ready for a clear oompru-
hension of tbo reason why failure in Ihe at-
Itmi't of the Nvrili teas ineitj'tiAfc— such n
failure uf course being domonatrntivoof tbo
destructive cAusequenoea of. widening tho
range of war.

No war, such as that in which no aro now
engaged, could havo been provoked by men

mthua

n for "

prosBOnlioa of the war" as fairly pales the
' spirit of the Abolitionists; tbo "firing
in Sumter." the " hauling down of the
A"merioan flag" — tho seizure efforts nod
arsenals — the rtjeolion of "lbs Crittenden"
uny other " Compromise " — these are as-
signed and accepted as "the causes of the
war." 0£ late, in the Btagootiou of military
affairs, tbo public has been treated, namea-
ted, by ucorrespondence, nttaining thoacri-
inonioua in character, between tbe venera-
bles Buchouan and Scott, in' wblcb both
reinforoo or wrest from
tbe Confederates certain forts, as matters of
tbe gravest importance. Considering the
developments of events, and what should be
Ihe development of human reason. Ibis last
oorrespoudcnce is tho most amazing, absurd
nonsense "in the annals of time." All these
things Ihe bislorinu will pass by as mora (ii-
cideiiCa of a philosophical drama to which
thoy only contributed the fictitious, if nec-
essary, taunts to narrow human passions.
Of all of these, and others equally familiar,
only one could havo esorcised tho least con-
trolling influence. The adoption of the
" CritlendoQ Compromise" might have i/e-
la'jed, but could uot have prcuertled civil
war. because those who rejected it, would
not have observed it, had thoy accepted it.
The spirit of wrong, of violence, of des-
ecration of the American Coosiiiotiou, in-
fested tha people, (tba potitioiane.) and if
iheso identical inoidonta had not presented
themselves, lubstituUs of similar hopes and
physiognomy would bare sprung up in their
ilaces. "Old Back" might in vn
lone all that " Fnss and Feathers " arraigns
him for not doing, and for wbioh " Old
Buck " vainly, but successfully defends
himself, tho war would no less nave been
npon us — it might havo given usn little ad-
vantage, it could not a whit have ehaitgcd
haracttr. and, of course, could not have
rendered it of the least mora promiso of
success. Of this the esperienca of eighteen
months, if rationally considered, should
satisfy any one.

Sinco all such were incidents they could
have exerted no determining influence up.
'le character of the disagreement be-

•.luent nectssanj eharaeler of tne war
between them ; thoy nre utterly without im-
portance to nay understanding of its causes,
its failures, its promises, i'cr these wi
must go down into tbe philosophy of thi
mental and moral perversion which was pro
duclive of the uero events themselves ; am
thus wo aro led to n brief consideration o
tbe propositions iudioated as fundamental
reasons of the war and its current and fu-
ture non-success. This, of courae, can in-
clude no reference to any malversations of

which tho war was fomented by us, and tho

It is unneoessury t^ pass words with those
who deny that tbo South baa bad n
proiocation. Auy such aro so wedded
their own mere volition that they ore plung-
ed below tbe deptba of ordinary man who
are enabled In see that they can make mi
takes or do wrong. That the institution of
slavery was confined lo the Soulhern .'itoles,
and that the public mind of Ihe North baa
been educated for more than a gcnerati"
to believe that that instllulion was wro ^
and an ovil, ia suOicioutto demonstrate that
tbs North was the attaoking party, and tbt
South tbe defensive. This is inken as c
fundamental proposition which no one can
have tho audacity to contradict. Upon tht
attacking party must fall tho onus of pii>
i!Ocalioii,t<s rciislnnoe. There could ba«<
been no p royoculion. bad all tbe North boor
mposed of represeolativo men of tbi
ens which lay ul the basii of our Govern
monl. Those ideas were formuliaad in Ihi
Conslitulion. which deolbred itself, with the
tawfl passed in ;iurjuaiic« Ihercof, the
prome law of tho land! That supremo
clearly reooguizod States as tho consei
tora of their own peace — their own morality
.—their own domestic orrongemonts ; am'
by that recognition precluded, as author!-
talivoly ns il written in words, all interfer
eaco with prerogatives and rights ndmittei
as existing wltbiu them. All Irritation
thoreforD, of tbo public inind, nbout matters
reaorved in tho Stales, vrns, ns ptovooalivo
uf resentment, ns infringing upuu man's na-
tural rights wonld he. and could oid<J kacc
been prqetieed by those rebellions to the
ideas wBlch foroiud our Govorument. Tbe
very Instifffils' and pasaiona which pro-
voked tho war, were those which 'inado all

se impossible after attaining n
wherein those passions and in-
stincts could bo gratified.

So also, tba war having commenced, iho
idea of ils being conducted in harmony with
the principles of the Union, and to that
end. by those whose political fortunes nero
built upon their opposition lo those ptiuoi-
plos, is preposterous. Tho bare statement
of the relations of an organized hostility to
.tutious of slavery, with tho princil-
plos nnd existence of tbo Union, ia suffi.
oionl illustration of the antagonism bo
twcen the Republican patty and the Union.
But the history of tho last twenty years is
blackened all over by flagrant violations of
the laws pnsied "in pursuance of Ibe Coo-
atitution." and both indirect and violent re-
to their officers. Wa bnvo heard
very recently of violent resistance to the
draft in Osaukeo, Wisooasin, and of the ar-
'ost of some seventy of the oppcneniB to
the execution of Ihe law. Republicans con-
sent to. nnd approve the most violent pun-
ishment that may bo inflicted upon tbi-se
offenders. Yet bow often have Republiciaa
led together to resist the exoculion of
the fugitive slave law; and how few of
tbem have aver raised their voice against
0 the majesty of tbe law ?—
Every Northern State can furnish examples
of tho Constitution and the laws, and their
I, being defied by those who now pro-
' be attempting to direct n war tot
the restoration of Ibat Union, theexialeuce
of which was identical with the sanity of
tbe Constitution and laws I If tho oxom-
set by Iho Republicans of resistance to
becomes ahabit, it will not bo tho first
nco in history if tha habit proves dei-
tructivo of thoso who set the example !

succcts. (beyond the winobg of
battles by aoldiera), is possibly attainable
by suob representative men as thoso to whom
tho goidaneo of tbo conntry is now com-
mitted. The fact is patent, that wbero a
thousand men over n year ago expected the
South to bo thrashed back "into the Union,
rcelyouii can be found to bcliove
^n tho South can bo conquered,
Nearly all men despair of any measure ot
that success of which' Ihey were for a lone
time confident. If it is so, which fow will
doubt, that nearly all tho hopes Tvhioh wi-re
enthusiastic when the revolution com-
incod. have burned down to tbe socket, Ihe
lion should be equally patent. Men who
have not forco enough to square their daily
life and political o.^istonco by tho snored
charter which Inums tho Union itself, have
it forco enough to conduct a Government
at all, or n war with sufficient confidence or
steadiness to cud it with credit. Men wbo
otovated to place nnd power bccnuso of
their advocacy of a single idea, and that
so at variance with the structure they
called to administer as to cause tho
atructura to fall to pieces at its first tonab.
cannot be expected to achieve any success
ia any of the rolatious of the Government.
It is'only suoh men who could have got os
—it is just such men who cannot
of it, Of course such men would
havo filtered that idea over every operntion
of tbo Govomment in peace, bad it bsea
strong enough to survive tho shook of tbeir
election ; and equally, of course, or for a
stronger reason, must Ihey filter Ibat idea
every operation of c irar which is its
creation. Nothing else should have
expected — nolhin" else has followed—
nothing else was possible. Tbnt idea being
false to every principle of our Government,
is, of course, lalso to every interest of Ihe
oitizeu. Hence, we find an apparently end-
less war on our hands — tbe resources of
half the old Union fastened up, and half the
materials of progress for the North iGolated
personal liberty a memory — the precious
motala out of circulation — all legitimate in-
dustry paralyaofl — prices of commodities
doubled— taxation more than quadrupled—
hundreds of thousands of lives sacribced-
and hundreds of thousands of negroii se-
duced or stolen from their lawful owners
that they may add to tho struggles of tb?
while laborers, and burden the National
and every State Treasury. No princi-
ples taking the place of those of the de-
Ibrouad Constitution ; generals are removed,
contracts given out. and tho bastard gov-
ernment roinuiuiog udim'nistered but upon
tbo caprices of tocklass wire-pullers, ami
iwards to personal favorites.
Tho whole matter may be easily summed
up. The war itself is a monstrosity iu every
sense. The idea of whipping the Soutb
back info the Union, is cufy a. possible con-
ception in case the war were so closely con-
duoted in the spirit of the Union, on th9
principles whiob made il, that there could
' > no occasion for tbe war— that there could
I no suoh thing as tbe war !
Again, the idea of subjugating a united
country as extensive ns the Soutb, and
holding it after sabjucation into a Unioo,
administered upon tbo samo prinoiplea of
government as thoso we have known and
prospered under, is an inconoeivablo per-
version of common sense- So, too, tho bar^
attempt of merely subjugating the South
and holding it subjugated, involves the idea
of ao much expense nnd to much govtrnmint
that thoso only could have made it who are
unfitted for successfully administering the
government of n nursery. And if tbe whole
idea of the war— of tbo mission of the Gu»-
ornmeut — is lo free tho slaves, tho conse-
~ such a sucoess to the whole
country, and the North in particular, nto (i^
appalling, that thoso who would conceive
and enter upon such an adventure, wonlu
uot be trusted to administer tbo estate of «
pauper. If more military snooess is the
object— winning battles nnd forcing lb"
South M oirkuowkdgo tho superior mllilory
poivet uf Northern armies— tbo plan of ar-
ranging campaigns, and building up and
leariog down Gencrols. with a view to m-
Anenco elections at home, and Iha cause <'t
partizon objects, displays a peouliarity "'
goverumentol genius n<-vor beforo knonn

All the Departments of tbe Federal p.nd
Slate Governments are subject to just polit-
ical accountability. The Executive De-
partnenti from its head to its iotvest civil
member, is onibrnoed by this stern rule —
impeachmenli indictment, the ballot, or the
poblio voice, may punish the delinquent
public servant. The members of the legis-
lative body, though not eiposed to impeach-
meut. may be aaimadvected upon in all tbe
other modes. Eveu the judges may be ar-
raigned and condemned or acquitted in the
same monaer as the legislator,*, and even
before tbe tribunal of impeachment. And
09 we have said, the irbole tribh- of politi-
cinQS, of whatever cloth, must endure the
same olose and trying test. Ministers who
have profaned their pnjpits by prostituting
them to party aaes, must, if they have
proi"ed to he "|hliad leaders of [be bUnd,"
lind their hold on the public confidencs re-
lued, and even their legitimate religiouain-
flaenoe impaired. While some will reproach
them for having led them wrong, others vrill
rBpioacb them for having led them at all.
The latter will say that ministers ought to
have had discretion enough to mind ^eir
own boainess, and that It is not every man
with a pale face who is qualiGed to teach
tbe poblio how to navigate the Ship of State,
either in calm or storm.

For tbo last eighteen months, it has seem-
ed us it tbe political responsibility of rulers
and politiciaus was an obsolete idea. Its
existence has been (looied in the highest
qnarters ; and the- high public functionaries
have acted as if they really thought the thing
was dead, and would never be raised aoaii
They havo "walked in the ways of (hei
heart, and in the sight of their eyes."
I^ustitutional limitations aud safeguards
havo been broken down or overleaped. The
careful distribution of'powers between the
different departments lias been overlooked
and slighted. Tho military power has been
eialled above tho civil. The Boveroign
tights of Stotes have been denied ond in-
ftiuced. The country boa been recklessly
involved in on nunecessary war. An im-
mense public debt has been voluntarily, and,
in great part, corruptly incurred. The
country has been flooded with an uncoosti-
totiona! currency. The war has been con-
ducted inefficiently, except in its incidental
lendenoies to complete nod conGrm the diS'
aclction of the Union. The purpose bos
been auoounced that the army and navy
aball be employed on a more gigantic scalt
fur unconatltalional purposes ; and the indi'
cations ace namerous and dialiuct that leg.
ialative nod executive action is to ho based
upon the usaomplloD that sovvreigu Stales
no longer exist in thuic political character
and prerogotives. The hberty of the press,
of speech, and of free discussion, and the
rights uf trial by jury, of pciaoail lib.
etty, and of private property, have beer
wilfully violated by the public authorities ir
icstonccs without number. Tbo recent or-
der making an extensive jail delivecj of
"prisoners of Stntu," issued since the Fall
olectioos, cannot alter the recoi ' ' "
past, ond is no guaranty that the oppressive
system will not be taken up again on the
eve of another series of elecliona. It may
be said of tbe recent state of things, that
the prophets prophesied falsely, and Iho
tyrants bon- rule by their means, ond the
people uppenri'd to love to have it so. It
oppeareo on the surlooecf aooiety, that the
people were ready to submit to u military
QospoHsui-

But it was not so ! The people wuro quiet
lyond deliberately ptepariag to rebuke mU-
rule, eorrupiiou and despotism. Tbo dark
n«is was the precursor of ibe dairn of Ihi
judgment day. lu a country where public
opinion is Ibe real and unchangeable
eign, that potentate was preparing to ascend
her ihtono ondouca mora nave herscoplrc
over her wide domain. She did su.aad prlnci-
paliliea and powers were summoned lo judg-
ueLl. The executive aud legislative de-
partments. OS a body, were condemned; but
DiDst of tbo work of passing judgmeolupon
lafaitaful individuals yet remains to he
done. In foot, the day of retribution has
out just dftwnod ; and it is to he one of Ibo
Iflogest daya in rdl the calendar. Before '"
j^liaes it will seem to some to bo almoat
loug and tedious ns ibo geologist imogiuos
'be days of creation to have been. It
ally takes longer to punish than lo sin
■Hit iirray of public oBicers end politicians

lave to poss the fiery ordeal. Not one
of tbo guilty and foolish throng will be
iblo to escape; nor will the judicial inqui-
lilion bo oonfined to one section of the
Union alone, but there is a terrible day of
judgment coming fotthe instigators of trea-
— ond rebellion. They oannoteaoapo re-
ing the just reward of their base and in-
famous deeds.

In that day, however, it will be tto part
if wisdom, and indeed of justice and duty,
o take care not to punish even for honest

FiniOQs, and for the independent eierciae
their judgment and of their rights as froe
electors. This would be inconsistent with
the genious and spirit of our free iuslitu-
■=—1. Men hove a perfect right to think
judBo (or themaelvaa on political af-
fairs, without liability to punishment orcen-
" re ; and every truo American will ever
jpect Ibis right, whether those who claim
have done the like to him or not. In
many oases also where men appear to havo
done wrong, tbe public nill need to inquire
wbctlier their conduct was not the necessa-
isult of circumstances, and nhether it
not tho wisest ooorsB for purposes of
reasonable prudence ond self defense. May
there not be cases too whore men have been
driven to acts externally criminal (as (ho
taking arms against Invtful authority) by
actual force aud compulsion ? Great care
ill, therefore, need to bo token, lest in our
al to vindicate what is right, we ourselves
fall into what ii unjust and wron^.

In all our conduct as oitlzens, whether in a
public or private sphere, let us never suSer
ourselves to forget our responsibility.—
Though our party may be etrong to-day, it
may bo weak to-morrow ; though our pupu-
lirlty may be great to-day. it may bo un-
der a cloud to-morrow; Ibojgh tho hand
'hich dispenses patronage may bo all-pow-
rfal to-day, it may bo nerveless aad ond
palsied to-morrow. On the other hand, in
passing judgment and cenauro upon others
for political ofTenaei. let us not forget our
liability to do wrong as well as tboy ;
us discriminate between thoso who wil-
fjlly offend, and those who have been tho
dupes and victims of the craft of others, or
have been the aubjeols of unlawful violence
ioercion. In cor future political course
I uae our inSuence also to prevent the
patronage of the Government from being so
dispcoaed. in the name of a just judgment
upon tho eoemies of tbo Government and

cesand honors, and a new application of tbe
maxim, that " tbe spoils belong to the vic-

Next to Hamilton. Washington was tbo

beas corpus net, &;o ; and the calling into

Ing nation into momenlary consternation.
But the reaction came. Tlio course of the

Adminiatralion was (aod is boiugj condemn-
ed in thunder tones, as it were, by the
Democracy, Wo trust tho time will come,
if it be not already orrivod, when no more
arbitrary arrests of Domocrals arc to be
mado {in defiance of tho eiprees statutea of
Ohio and the United Slates) by order of
some Third Assistant Secretary of Wat,
for Ibo exercising of tbe inalienable and
constitutionally guaranteed right of free
speech. We can readily remember how
the Black Republicans (when they had n
President to elect) were so clamorous for
"freedom" in oil its shapes; if we must
fall under tbo wheels of a military despo-
tism, let them not bo driven over us by tho
Abolitionists, for we then shall be under
the disagreeable neoessity of brnndiog them
OS damnable hypocrites. Those who ex-
cuse the subversion of the oriviicges of tbe
individual and State, are fond of saying
they are but following out the spirit of tbe
Conatilutinn, and will cite Hamilton, eape-
cinlly, aa its principal author, and us ono,
who, wore ho living, would, in conformity
with his policy, which they justly contend
la the very web and woof of tbe Constitu-
tion, sanction Lincolu in his monarohioal,
aye, despotioal tendencies and acts. The
two extracts below are of thrilling interest
to the American who reveres tho ancient
land-marks left by tbo forefather*. What
a Gtiogiug commentary is tbo language of
Hamilton, the "uuquealioned leader of the
Federalists." the most lealous (so called)
"defender of centralization" of all our
statesmen of his limei and tho man who was
the master mind of the Constitution, which
perverted in letter and spirit by thoie
pretending to admire Ids policy and aot up-
on his ideas of constitution^il government !
Tha careful reader will find nothing in theaa
expositions of this most anti-Stales' Rights
man's viowa upon the Constitution lo aug-
geat the Hamilton of the AboUtiODists ; Ibe
lamented opponent of Aaron Burr, as an in-
dividual, admiied the dition of an England ;
as the Amtrican statesmen ho ia much mis-
apprehended. Tho "higher law" (higher
than God himself wo are giveo lo under-
stand !) is, happily, ao constituted, that tbo
-■evout bolieverain that "new light" can
1 pleasure, and without forfeiting their
laim fqr consistency, be radioal (a " con-

In tbo oacicDt feudal gaveramenla of Europe,

them, tbe vatiala or tho whole body of the peo-

But lo lake ofl the lorco of this obvioua conolu-

session enaning tbe adoption of tbo Conati-
imion. Congress, with a view of carrying
into practical effect the foregoing provision,
ifter carefully cnumerntiug the various
Erades of offenses, from treason and piracy
downward, at Section 24, proceeds to say :

" Proiidcd abcays, and le it rnaclid, That no
eoavictioo or |udgmciit for aay of ihe oQeoaea
aforesaid, aball work corruption of blood, or nny

Here ia a peremptory law forbidding oil
forfeitures whatever, at least for tbo com -
on of crime ; nor am I awaro that this
statute has been repealed— certmnly not
prior to the 17th of July, IBC-J.

It would seem that at tho time last men-
tioned, the Amcrionn Congress, ignoring
tbe 24th Section of tho act of 1790, afore-
said, proceed to pass tho existing Confisca-
tion Law; and the question arises whether
the aeolion aforesaiil can be said to be re-
pealed by implicalion. For if tho section
in quealion is to be left standing, then the
act of 18152 would aoom to he of non-oQect;
for if property cannot bo subject to far/eil-
ure. it cannot be made liable lo all Ibo con-
stquoucesof forfeiture, by a mere "seizure;''
for this in effect would superiodnce (ho very
"■■il which tho act of 1790 iutondod to pro-

'nt. Then if the 2-llh section of the OOt
of 1700 is, in effect, repealed, the act of
lSb-2 may unjoin a seiiure. not absolutely,
but for the lifn of tho offender; tbe estate

Perhaps there oeverbas beenn limesiooe

Stood tho destructive, revolutionary record
of the Abolition party, now stripped of the
disguise under which it bad been lifted into
power, demonstrating beyond peradventnre,
what were its ultimate purposes and designs.
With surprise and indignation the people
saw tho glorious heritage of constitutional
liberty swiftly passing from them, aod, not
being allowed tu apeah, tbey fell ot once in-
to the execoise of tbat right, which, thank
God, no tyranthoud nor suple " backbone "
could wrest from them — I mean tbe right ot
thought. And now while utterance was
auppressed and terror reigned throughoat
the land, there was being developed la the
minds of Ihe people, that degree of intolU-
gence and firmness of purpose which would,
in due time, vindicate tbe trulb that man ia
capable of self-government. Thousands of
honest persons who had been led into tho
nepublican party, through the mere acci-
dent of association, and who had never be-
fore given any considerable thought to the
nature and lendenoiea of sectionalism, need-
ed only a abort exhibition of its foUy to
convince them of its impropriety, and range
them in the ranks, permanent members, of
tbe Democratic party. By Ihat party Abri>-
bom Lincoln was elected lo the presidency,
and, proving to be a mete tool, with an ad-
justability adapted ti> all the usionary
schemes of the most corrupt and desigtiiog
men, thousands who had voted for his elec-
tion, turned from him with contempt — iden-
tified themselves with the glorious old Dem-
ocralio partr, and are now wiser and happi-
er men. The great heart of tbe peoplo was
always right ; and all that was necessary to
Get them right in ileed was to arouse them lo
ajust sense of tho respousibllity that rested
upon them. This has been done so effectu-
ally that there is not muoh danger of their
falling usieep again so long us the horrors
of these limes are mado the Iradilioua of
generations yet to come.

What a glorious opportuuity is hero given
for tbe Democracy to gather honora in tbe

A friend has H«nt us the following copy

1st Monday of January, 1803.

It ciproasoa all that ia nccoBsary, and we
udviae our frieuda in each county to get

It will bo too espenaivo to havu them prin-

Tho subject is one of deep interest to the
people of Ohio, und ospsclally to the labor-
ing men. Wo are firal taiod to freo these
negroes, and when fren they will ho sent

in largo number a. They have IftRsiuIlli-
uois and Indiana agalniil their going there,
and those laws ore being put in I'orco. This
will ioavo Ohio OS the open depot to receive
them, if not cloaed up.

If the pruaent Republiaou and Emanci-

If the [ireeent Legialaturn can bii prevail-

So groat an annoyance havo these

ts also. With soauly fare aud long march-
, thoy beoftme irritated at seeing their di-
inishedrationsduily doled out to a crowd of

loads of these negroes curried along in the
trains when they, foot-aore, sick and worn
down, had to trudge it on foot.

At Hilton Head, in Florida, at New Or-

thousands of negroes armed and drilled in

re these negroes armed with United
Stales guns— clothed with United States
clothing, and fed out of the army rations
purchased for white men! Those armed
negroes, commanded by abolition oSioora.
appear to be no better than tho negroes
iselves, are being taught to burn and
rob dwellings, fight bottles whore there is
little or no danger, go out on inaruudiog os-
peditions nnd to freo other slaves by couilug

dispirited with gloomy imuginiugs of opr

lense negro worahipper will not so mistake
the native spirit of oar peoplo. aa lo sup-
pose that poverty or Illegal oppression, or
the wild eiactions of tho Govemmeot by

knowledge our equality with the Africui
raoe of black oaoabala. There is a wiilo
gulph between the two races yet, and tlo

The l-;ei
ing u lerriblo evil upon oil clo^aea ot men. The
greatest oppreaaioa felt is among tbe workiug
dosses, Dad workmen ore demanding an iuoreace
of wages to aecnre Ibemselves and families
against want and anflering. This, wilh them, is
a mattcrof abaoloto uoceisity, and wo ore an r-
prised that any employer eboold resist it. The
working men, in this demand for an incfcage of
wages, ore only carrying their prices to meet the
necessities of tbo hour.

Every thing Ihey buy has raided from twcity
t-i forty per cent , nod, io all reatuo, il tbould not
be cipected tbal they would not prepare to meet
the trying emergency. An iacreoEo of wages
ahoula be eheertuUy met by all employers, nod
should be of such a character as lo
prevent our working people from heicomng beg-
gars.

uot the fault of tha men wbo vcort for

but of a government which cummenced

oppreiiiog them by a false sjslem of tmation,

I papercurreney which, of iteelf, is one third

dollar, or nearly tu, below par^ and Ibis

depreoiBlioa of currency is ndded to Ihe price of

" goods, wares and merchandisB"

Wo have before shown that working women
,vo literally been laieU out of eiiatt-nce. All
e^o oppresBiona, in addition lo high pncea. ope-
to on men ia most kinds o( Imdes, Wo see it

and compel Ihcm by ii btreani ol public indigna-
tion t»i do juatice lu these poor women or leavo

There is a diapoaition to run everything

political power of these monupohzera is used to

hove been seised upou by n company uf

and thus what were once free for all, are nokv in

Tukiog all the^e things inlocoutiderBiiou, we
cannot teo why uny senEible man ivbo reaiens nt
nil should complain of the working peopio fur a
demaad for higher wsges. Tho whole political
machinery isoutet order, us well us Iho Goancial,
other, and it is absurd to
Ibiok of throwing tbo wbotu burden, or an undue
part of it, on labor — on iuduslrioua poverty, which
best pays more than its proportion uf the bur-
ns of Governmeat.

It ia a nulorioQs fact, that tbo ivorkiog men
vor Bik more than thoir rights in government,
they should uever submit to le^is, and it is too
uueb thu fashion ol nil times to do tbem far lets
bnn juatice. There is no reason why this should
le (0. If labor and capital, as wo are continu-
illy told, nru dependent on each other, we see no
xouse fur capital to aasumo all Ihu bcoelit*, po-
ilieally and olherivise, uf that deptndeau. We

Secrclarj- Ch.ise, reporta inform us, v.
new his tinanciol project uf a year ago vi
tax Ibe local or State Bank circulation out
isleoco, to give U* green backs the whole 1
a paper oirculalion. TVe are disposed to let tbe
Secretary and tbe banks fight the mailer out.—
Ooo year ago this propo'ition had some point i
it. Paper money, aod gold and eilier had
similar nomiaol value, ond Mr. OiiASE'a projeot
might hove stood some chance of an oiislence
had Ihe backs been willing to yield their greatest
profits, that of furnishing a paper cireulalion;
but at preEent, with paper money of all sorts,
green backs aod bank paper, at a discount, which
indicates a general imolvency, no paper aebemo
ilb snoh a basis can long weather Ibo storm,
and benco we feel less interest in tbo fight.

We presume Congress ivil! complele its round
of folly, aod, inslead of trying lo bring our cor-
oy true standard ol valuo, will pace a
Bankrupt law, which will enabla the big specula-
tors to nosh out tbo whole Qoaacial bubble. II
they do not do this, Ihey will not complete their
iniquity. Tbey will very naturally come
to Ihe cobGlusioQ Ihat it is euier to w-ath out tbc
'bole affair by an net which will prerent tho col-
;ctioo of debts by giring a bankrupt " receipt in
full," than troubling themsoltes with elpoaing
B by trying to m»nd Ibom. The thing
looks BO natural to ue, that we cannot help anlici-
patiug that it will be done.

Democrats do you bear that? Did any
Democrat ever go farther than that 7 Yet
how many Deoocruts have been afraid to
STOW llieir sl^ntiments. or have been bought
mer to lead tho most intense fvcUng of '■ war
lo the knife," or "never comptomUo with
Iroitors 1" Jlr. Grbele? says there " never
has bt-en u limo " that he would uot even
have suboiitled to the dt'Oision ot an umpire
"■from which thcro was no appeal." This
k going as far as he. who would go the
jertbest.

Wo have no doubt that the time will come
whea the whole unpopularity of this war,
with all its crimes, miiifortunos, dieastcrs
ind prolongation, will be attempted to he
east upon Democrats. Tfaey will point, as
evidence, to overy Democrat who haa fiold
himself through cowardice, or for an office,
cr money paid down, as evidence ot the
truth of thftir assotliou. They will point
to every Democrat who ever icade
speech, or in any way aided the Gove
\y word or dead.

But what wo wish in thig quolotion to call
itiention to, ond wo wish every dumij-
tret to btdr it in mind, U. Ibiit tbe opposi-
)ion ibo Ropublicana have nmdo to Dem-
oeratB who orged a BOttlomtnl of our uf-
fairs tbrough some process less desiroctivo
of lifo and property, than that iu progress,
was, lo prevent the Domoorota gaining tbe
political credit of healing up our distracted
government. Tlmt la all. Wo were on the
light track- WD Blotted out right, but by
public clamor- threftls, Imprisoumculs, foul
epithets and the clash uf ormH, many Dom-
Crcrals yielded to the combined ptesaure
aadt in tho vary hour of trial, gave way tcm-
jiorarily to the storm.

Thoro never was any true arbitors to ihi^
conflict except tbo people themeelves

ibiasod expression of the whole peo-
plo should have been sought at once, and
taken to oolleot this suilli-
meut before involving tho country in civil
war and convertiug the whole land into
military camps, Tho Democrats of the
North offeri^d, at on early day. to outer upon
Iho work of compromise and settlement ;
were willing lo unite with the Republioans
and enter upon a discussion of a possible
aettlement. The Border Slavic States, by a
niBJority of thousands, ofTored lo outer
heartily into such movement, with u very
fairly divided sentiment on the subject in
all tbe extreme Southern States.

Had the Republicans, just coming into
power, flushed With esgev longing after
place and power, joined heartily in this
cess was inevitable, and no
army thcives, no mourning for the
tho domicils of our people, no high
tajes which are eating out the substance of
industry und aendiag thousands of poor
womeu and children lo dreary couches sup-
perless — no national disgrace nnd official
imbecility, would have stamped us as a cor-
rupt race of ignorant and stupid asses.

Mr. Greelev sees what is coming and he
hastens to tell us that for himself, ha was at
all times ready to submit to a settlement on
peace terms, oven if there was no appeal
from the umpire. Ho and bis madmen have
rushed on tbe nalicn and people to their
present horrible condition— tbey have push-
ed their violent and wicked reeasores to a
point from which they shrink in their sober
moments with horror, and are ready to in-
sult us with the complaisant assurance that
they have been opposed, from the first, tc
tho whole procoedinga.

eyes on it, and be prepared ore long to set

Whether our Legislature contains ony

As oor teapeotablc colemporary bns np-
poiat'J as lo Tindicnto the proptioty ot
hoiaiDg an 8lh of January Convontioii, we
aboll Inko thu opportunity to maki* a few
remarks. For twenty odd years wo attoad-
o3 8lh of January Convontions, and triumph-
ed in Democralio victories, and wo cover
saw anything gained by tbt
great deal lost.
Stb of Janaary school, and we never look
back lo those glorious old days when tho
people ruled, and not committees, but wo
sigh over their departure, and the departure
of Ihoto good old times with them. This
we sappoae is the mero faolt of early edu-
cation.

We confess on other grounds wo ehonld
have been pleased lo see the Democracy of
Ohio together on the 3th. The right
spirit of oar people is up— there is a high
Sde of public feeling wbiob shoulJ be tak-
en at its flood, and kept rolling to foture
suocpssea. This can be seen everywhere
in tho meetings of congratulation held
wherever speakers could bo prooored. The

eduaalcd ii

like

ssed in Ohio befor.
. on brief notice.

Thousands of peopl

lecting together afler an election Wds over
to congratulate each other on their escape
from the jaws of a despotism which hnd
been prepared for Ihem, was both an inter-
esting and aablime sight, not to be overlook-
ed or turned aside with indifference.

If there was danger of some one being
aominatod which somebody did not want,
and that somebody wanted time to arrange
tor somebody else, w^s not only a reason
for postponement, but ihe very reason why
the people should have been left to do thuir
nwn work in their own way, and at their

Bat let that all pass, and let us look into
IhercESOOB^iftii ; Vromthe orticlo
StaUinxan, tho idea was left that the 8tb of
January was a duy of ill omen,
been the cause of many defeats to
ty. This we could not lot pass wi
lice. Wo could not suffer snob a thing to
go on record without reiislancc. The En
qairer tskea the aiibjceloff the Staltiman'
Lands and givea tis other reasoni, and ap
pointed us to reply to them.

Well, wo regret that in doing it wo sball
be compelled lo show that the Unq^
our view, takes a very remarkable way to
show that the Demoorutio party is guide
by circumstances, and not by principli
CiTcumilancti may change, we admit, but
principUi, never. Uoti- remarkable stilh
the eiroumstanoes that nro lo occur, aro
come from our puliticnl opponents- The
logic of this is that our candidate, or
dates, to bo nominated, must depend on some
good or foul act ol our polilioal opponents.
Carry this principle out, and it might be
unsafe lo nominata until iJie day before the
iteelim- Because oor opponents, finding
out who wo were running, and seeing our
platform, might do some :ict wliioli would
knock oil ot them into a " cocked bat."

If Ibu togio of the Enijuirer is correot.
our politioiil opponents make our candidates
and *iiT platforms for u'i— we do not make
them for oursulves. Wo have so diamet-
rically an opposite idea of what Demaoraoy
is, and what it ahouid Lo, that wo hardly
know how lo account for our worthy cotein-
porary falling into such a train of login.
I'laufiblo as it may appear to some, it is
ansound in every particular. It leaves thu
Demooratio party wholly dependent on its
opponents for its eiialonoe— aparty of mere
opposition to something elsn — when in fact
it is now, and always was, a party of posi-
tive principles — the subitantivo. nod not thu
udjcctive— tho perfect, and not the imper-
fect tcnsc-

What sort of people doc» Iho Enquirer
helievo Ihc Demooratio party to coiitaiu,
that they would "iio'nina'<at/ia^-/iaiar<ian(/
in Ihc darkl" The Democrats of Ohio ore not
of that character of men. If the managing,
mole-working poUticians who havo "aios
to grind," aomo monstrous corrupt swindle
whioh tboy wiab lo wring in upon the nomi-
nating conventions, will let the people alone,
ujid not cheat them out of their honest im-
pnlsee, wo will guarantee that there will ho
no '■ hap-kazard 'nominalions," oor will
thoy make them "inlhe dark."

It is nut tho people irbo act in the dark.
Not by any means; but that class of men
nhohang upon the out-Bklrls,wa(obiogthoir
chanres, and misleading and corrupting men

who arc chosen by the people to represent
thi-m.

We do not think that tho Emjuirer. in
trying to get the StnUiman out of a diffi-
culty, baa made tho case one whit bettor
than it was before.

The State Committee will mret in this
ity before this artiole will bo printed, and
t is not, therefore, written to influence
hom, but to vindicate a correct ptinoiple.

iends were too fast in count-

They do not aoem lo fully appreciate tho
corruption of the authorities at
Washington. They seem lo forget that
is they once were. We have,
therefore, refrained from entering into tho
mely scramble as lo who shall fill llie
offices ot the Congress which is to meet af-
the 4th of March next — most likely not
until this week a year lunee. If it ia too
long to have a State tioket before tbo jieaple
the 8tb of January next, until the Oc-
tober following, it is surely too long to keep
scramble for offices in the next House
of Congress, whioh can only meet a year
from this time, unless called together by
the President ; and no one is foolish enoogh
suppose that he will call together, by
preclamatiou, a Congress opposed to his

The success of tbo Abolitionists in fore-

North. Tbey know too well that Ihey. with their
eight milllDDs. aro no natch for the twonty mil-

of Ihe twenty millions ahonld be put forth. The
problem lor thcoi lo solve, therefore, in tbo outset

North: boK to provent the North from puttioi;
forth itt whole etreoglh. The expedient which
tbey Gnally adopted, aod to nhlcb they have
steadily adhered, was to came the North to be-
lieve tbit they had no military slrenq til ; that Ihe
people were divided in sentiment: thst thero was
- Htrnug Uaioa pirty uttlio South; thst they had
']l the meana of armicg, clothing, or sabsiating
□ army, aad that for these reasons a ivar could
ot bo proseculed by lliem with a vigor wbiah
their rebellion would require. They reosoaed.
aod reaioned conecUy.lhiit if tbey could get the
North to bclJocotheselbiogs, it would cause Ihem
to be ao nnderrated that the North would not put

MEDARr, Esc}.— Dear Sir;— Dia-
wilh the usual introduclory enco-
tSums upon your ability aud influence as a
joumolist. (which are unqaeslionable), I
shall, wilb your permission, in a plain and
candid statement, exhibit a scheme of vil-
lainy that, in tbe most odious phases of party
no parallel in our political hia-
proper to premise that I am in
principle a Democrat, deeply imbued wilb
the toaohingJ and traditions of that veuera-
^roed, and sincerely desirous to witness
restoration of tbe Union by constitu*
lional means udequsto to that end. To
persist in monsures of policy not consonant
with tho spirit of Democracy and the genius
of our government, which derives its jml
poioerj from the cenitnl of the governed,
must inevitably result in tbe subversion of
the institutions wo are struggling to sustain.
The eiasamcd necessity of resorting to means
unknown to thi Constitution for the purpose
upholding a government that claim; and
possesses no powers not conferred by that
instrument, juatifles tho Impression that wo
involved in a atupendoua National blun-
Our only hope of escape from the
calamities that afflict and almost overwhelm
Ibo country, consists in a firm adherence to
lose cnrdiual rules of Demooratio faith that
iculcale a strict coustruotion of all Fede-
ral powers, aud a stern rcsislncco to all eu-
ichments on the sovereign rights of

] of violence and outrage enacted In
ity on the fourth of November without
feeling tbe most profound solicitude nnd
ilarm. In view of the disturbed and pcril-
jus condition of affairs, Ihe Convention, in
Xi deliberate wisdom, adopted an ordinance
defining the •jnaliGcatiou of voters, and pre-
scribingthe authority of judges. To secure
thu independent exercise of tbe right thus
conferred, tbe Commander-in-Chief of tbe
Stale forces issued a general order referring
ti? this act, and requiring the military to re-
frain from all improper interference at tbe
polls, and eojoining upon tbem a diligent
■rvnnee ot peace and order. Gen. Hall,
special mandate, exacts implicit obedi-
< to these requirements, and manifests u
, osition to imposH them. The radical
aboliliou element hero, anticipating an uver-
wheliniug defeat If u free and tearless ex-
pression of sentiment was nliowed. and io-
Uuenced by tbo solemn und Specious adju-
■utions in the daily columns of the Hcaid,

ions of tbe civil and military powers of the
govornmeut. Their uusorupulnns party or-
"tb the frenzy of a fanalio and tbe
( of u Jacobin — burled deCanon at
all public Cunservalivo decrees, railed fran-
tically against ull restraints upon tbe law-
less spirit of the mob, appealed lo the worst
passions and prejudices of men, denounced
in violent languuga all true and faithful ad-
herents to tbe Coustitutiou us it is, sneered
and Hcolfed at every suggestion and remon-
strance tending to restore harmony and pre-
vent disorder; nud last and worst of all,
the urmcd and awern military of the Stole
were exhorted to the commiasiou of perjury
find murder if necessary to conaummato
their nefarious achemes of intimidation.
Threats, warnings, and unwarrantablo i^xbi-
bitions of military power wore resorted tt
the morning of Iti^ election lo deter pa-
triotic aud conservative men from tbo oxor-
se of a ptivilpge thoy had never forfeitedi
id which they had been taught to regard
. the invi,)Uhle safeguard of their cheriiibed
institutions. The Colonel commanding Iho
posl, himself a candidate for publv
in naulon contempt of his superii
with an uller disregard of the proprieties of
lifu, ordered tbe arrest of citizens more loyal
because more law-abiding than himself, ivbe
dared to evince their feulty to the govern-
meul by opposing tbe radical and disorgan-
izing clique of wtiiob bo is the represcnta-
tivo aud the tool. This coutomptible expe-
dient upon tbe part of a cominissioued offi-

and encouraged these outrages ia tbo ehar-
teristio attributes of a parly against nhiob
e irrevocable verdict of tho nnlion has
been solemly pronounced.

The election in Missouri, and esprcially

tho Seventh Congressional District, was

1 egregious mockery and a palpatio

aad disgraceful freud. An honotahlu sad

conservative mun, knowing the facts, woajd

ion think of receiving stolen grinds oi

accepting an office tendered by n cwrnpl

minority, who bad stifled ihe voice of his

constituents by intrigue nnd violence at tio

ballot-box. The candidate who would ac-

ipt tt responsible position or the emolu-

onls of an office obtained by menus cf a

inspiraoy against the laws be awi'srstu

aintuin, would forfoit ibe esteem nnd coa-

lidence of every honesl man. But, forla-

>tety, tbis questiou is lo be ultimately dc-

Jed by tbe proper constitutional tribaoalg,

when these conspirators and their protegH

will be spumed and despised, and tho rights

of the people vindicated and restored- The

pernicious influence of tho dominant faction

destinies of Missouri, precludes, fur the

preaent,all hope of justice or exemplary puo-

isbment for these grave offenses against Ihe

ighta of man; but. in the Providence o(

From tho fact that wo shall bo involved in

tho settlement uf our troubles into our own
bands, any proposition coming from;tha
-South, at (his time, looking to a reslorotlon
of tho Union, should bo al onoo accepted
as a chance for teiminatiog thia civil alrifa

admit wo eipect but litUo of Mr. Lincoln;
and less of his mad advisers ; but when tba
people are no longer left in doubt why it la
that this war never ends, but grows more
nd m..re ruthleaa and destructive, thoy
'ill no Linger furnish him and hie mad-men

It will be seon by the above that tbo State
Central Connnitteo have fijed on the
tlnenlh day of ncxi Junt, to hold cor
Demoeratio Stale Convention. This if
much bettor than in August aa some sug-
gested, nod nearly a mouth in advance of tho
4th of July. It will come in a very buay
SOftHOn of the year for our furmers, who
"make up so large a portion of the voting
Domoorata of the Slate and a vast amount
of its integrity, ourage aad honest bruins.
■Wq hope, however, they will be prepared
to give one or two days to tboir country
' even iu the most busy portions of iho year.
Wohopo they will bear this in mind and
, oomnience early to bo prepared for the great
event. Our national Government
ing daily on moil daogorous grounds, bat
by a perfect State orgauiiotioa and a com-
plete success with candidatea who thorough-
ly undorstttod the whclo grounds of oui
oountry's danger, and with courage enough
to carry out the measures neceasary for
iifety BB freemen of Iho Stato. we will ytt
ride the terrible storm of revolution which
meats us at every step. On tbo one aide
armed rebellion against the Government, on
tho other a Government endeavoring to oQ'
sliivothe people by riding over every con-
Btitntional guornnteo of freedom. It is nc
' obild's play tortho Democratsof the North,
nith yet the privilege of tbo ballot, to ride
triumphantly over this stormy sea and
.bring the Ship of State safely into port.
'' ' Never Io30 eight of this, and never for-
■; gotto feel the great responsibilitj- resting
upon every one engaged in this great
noble work. There is no time for sleepioe
or Btaoding indiff-^renl at one's post. Let
every neighborhood, village, tonn and city,
bave its organization and spare no vS^tt to
J spread eound seed for future gro
'.' Ic-sep your strength ever at your command.
■ Because it is sii months btfore we con
/bavoa State oigauiEsliou, it does not take
^ from Iho people the right to take np Ibe
' initiative and see U> tbeir own localities, tbat
' no harm oomes of delays. Iu fact, it \» the
'. more imperative that they should aot, and
■ ' tbat promptly.

Now ia Iho time to eow good ictd all over
tba land — it will sprout, take deep root.
. and spread for the barvest. Uolesa you
'; sow yju cannot reap, and, therefore, sow
J -early; sow broadcast nnd in drills. Save

Treasury lor her nrrest, with large
trovollog fees, whioh was evidently intended
in the end to terminate In violent ccduotion,
?r that in death. Barer, one of

rms OS that his falher is still in pr Imd,

illiog our atlentlon to tbe fullowing port-

prisoners will bo released from Fort Lafay

'Heat present, as there are no prKonprs

From this it ia supposed Ibol theGoY(ri(J
nenl baa decided lo not let the Dooloconl

him loose. This is tbe richest thing ye|,
Is Dr, Of.DS to die la prison I as it nil]

A friend writing ui from Hubbard, Ohio,

"I think eomelhlDg ihonM bo done lo iDilii«

The idea is a oapi tal uiie to insure the neik
being well done. Tho furm of tbe pelilliin

(ow hero tho whole blame ia made to rest
tbo Guveruors of the Slates where ar-
rests have been made, who, as wo are left
lo understand, report lo tho Judge Advo-
cate, and then be signs tbe order for the
ure of the individual reported. Goyer-
Tou then told the truth when ho said to
the Editor of tbo Uhxo KagU, thol ho had
) dered Dr. Olds' arrest. This is narrow-
ing Iho thing down to a fine point.

In the above, tho Governors of the States
ire made to cut quite a conspicuous figure,

Iheir lecoiUclions aa speedily as possible-
If any of these men so singularly spirited

happen to be forgotten, and they die in
prison from neglect, or rot in filih for want

iprisonment and damages.

The apparent oool indilTereaco with whioh
these men try to cost off tbo responsibility
of Ihese barbarities on lo others' shoulders,
is not to bo overlooked in the progress of

Tbe Prisouers ai Camp Chasp.

From what ne learn of our own Ohio
iUzens who bovi' been incuroeralod in tho
rison at Camp Cfaose. for itbal the nboli-
onisls are pleased to call polilieal offenses,
'0 have become salisfied that it is duo the
onor of oor SUto to at oocl- demand o rt-for-
mation there. If Iho history of that prison

Ohio nod her citiseos which thoy ooght nt

probobly never should havo known
of it had not several of our own
been there to bring forth the horrid tolo of
je and suffering.

We speak wholly of tho p'ylilical prison,
tho prison of bTATK, aa we fenow aolhicg
whatover of what occurs in the prison where
"rebels taken iu arms are kept," that is.
the "prisoners of war."

It must act he forgotten that Uioro has
been from eU to seven hundred political
prisoners ot Camp Chase ot a time, and
although several hundred havo been lately
■ged without trial, there are yet there
some (our hundred— cao or two hundrod of
rrivod there within u fow days
past from Kentucky and Westeru Virginia,
e men ore taken from ihoLr homes,
from their beds at night, aooie from
houses in day lime, oad a great many
of them are picked up in iheir fields at
work and never eoffered to see their fami-
lies before being spirited off to Ohio and
incarcerated in this celebrated bastile which
will soon he as famous as Olmutu itself.

Our Ohioansare putiato the sftiue prison
irlth thoflo men from othes Stales, nad from
ibem '^'-' havo learned some facts which
the people of Ohio ought to kuow. Many
of theao men hove beeu kept in this prison
for over imc year, a groat maay for 6ve, bi.i,
seven and eight monlha, without oven see-
ing outside, or being allowed to commuoi-
cfltG personally with any one, not oven wifo,
child, father, mother, oratrooger.

They ore furnished with nothing but a

single blanket. even thesecold nights, unless

they ore able to purchase additional oomf.'rts

ith money they may be able to command.

Many are poor men, and unable to purohate

they were not permitted to bring along a

langu of clothing, and many had on when

ized nolhiog butsommer wear, und that

hna become filthy, worn ont, and scarcely

langs upon their baoka.

They have no bedding, and are, iherofoi
lompelled to sleep on the hare boards.
They have not wood enough furnished to
keep fires up ail night, and hence (ha auf-_
fering is inlonsified by tho oold weather,
thi'y Btleuipl, after night, to walk
in the yard to take off ttiu chills of tho
dreary night, they ore iustuntly threatened
It, be shot by the guards, as ordered by
those in command.

Dr. ALr.ES, of Columbiana county. Ohio,
said ho laid oa a bare board antil his hips
wero black aud blue. The wood fornishi^d
them is four f<iet long, and thoy are oom-
pelled, each mess, to chop it up for Ibem-
se Ives, and, tho provisioDH being furnished
,w. they havo to oook it for themselves.
Bfcoolleol, always, that these are the polit-
ical prisoners, against whom no one appears
i;oouBer, and no trial is purmitt«d.
The prison bus becomo Gl thy— awfully
—and the rats are in droves. If the pria-
lera attempt lo kill ono of those rots, tbey

aesinal whom somemalioious negro worship.

whose naino is kept
there oim be no trial.

Tho prison is perfuotly ulivo with lice.
and no obeaoe is given to escape ihu living

the other day c.irried out to tbo dead
yard, and laid tluire over night, and when

who heard there was a dead man there,
they found tho liiur on his bead stiff with
lioe and aits — the lioo oreoping into
eyes in great nombersi and, aa bo lay

We do not bring these things lo light for
any olher purposo than an act of humauily,
■peot for the fair fame of Ohio, and lo
: puhlio attealion to them that tho bru-
tal authorities of thai Camp may have jus-
tico done them. The Commandant of the
Camp ishimselfa member of tho Ohio House
of Representatives. He will no doubt ap-
pear on thofiratMonday of J.inuaryto lake

that floor — let him iinsnor to his cnnslitu-
ents who olcotod him — lot him answer to tbo
whole people of Ohio, if he dare, whether
thi'Sii things are so or not. U<

theae transootions- any ricuse of tho moil
trivial nature by which tho fniao of Obic
may be vindicated from the crime and stig-
ma, which otherwia", must go down to al

throwing pearls before swine.

w now is this Union ever to be rostor-
How Is Virginia to come baok Into the
I whoa these abolilioniats have diaaev-
ered ber territory, and that, too. in tho very
teeth of the Conatilution ? Let no one be
longer deceived ! The men who gave the
ibove vote, do not intend that this Union
iball be restored. They are open, unadul-
terated trailora, and should be flo held by
every man not as guilty ua themselves.-
The people of tbe South have kept the Stole
linea intact, thus leaving the Stale machine-
ry whole. BO that a Union might be again
formed wilh each Stulo perfect in territory
id in organization, with its original Stale
ithority, without which no Union can over
;ain take plaee.

We say it, therefore, unhesitatingly, that
) act of the South baa given so severe a
sb at tbe re-union of these thirty-foui
Stales as tbey wore on the day Liscot-N was
eleoti-d, as thia nefarious act of thia traitor-
abolition Congress- Wilh what face
wo oak the people of Virgii
back into tbe Union, when, by an

destroyed her boundaries and
rendered her incapable of speaking- Any

of any olber State can, upon tbi
precedent, aet up for itself and demand ad-
ionos ooow Stato. Why not the West-
Koserve set up for itself on tbe GltEE-
plea, that wo thua make another aboli-
tion Stale 1 la there to be no end to the^e

bold not of treason in tho very halls of Con-

thia act ia openly and publicly repudiated

If it ia the secret object and pnrpose of
the Republicans, before they get out of

If, then, this Is tbe purpose, we have the
question of a division of these Slates at

purlnnt question just now for the Western
people to consider. Ono or the otbt

because it was the " Sth of January," we
lid have taken Ihe trouble to viudicute

posing that tbe only question would bo

law and their iustruc lions, and

then it will bo time enough for them to per

We certainly never saw from any Repub-

and thus tarnish not only the day, but one
of tbe most remarkable military achieve-
ments in tbe nnnalnof war-

Tbe idea of vindicating Mr, Lincoln's
martiallaw, by makiogtbatof Oeu. Jack-
aoa a precedent, shows a total wai
knowledge of tbe facts in
Jackson did not proclaim martial law out-
side of tbo lines of his army. Ho assumed
no dictation, nor any control of anybody,
nor anything, outside of his military camp,
whloh Included tbe city of New Orleans.
And In no instance have wo condemned any
of our Generals for eserciaing it tempora-
rily, with an enemy in sight, expecting an
uttaok dally. What bus such niarlial law
to do with the marlial law claimed by Mr.
Li.ScOLN t Not a shadow of semblance
between tbem, except in name.

Gen. Jackson bad mure mantinesa than
lo claim ibat ho hnd any legal or oonstitn-
tional right to do even what he did. It was
iL mere temporary mllllary necessity, iri'fti'i
(A<iinejo/"/inar"iv- in tbe face of a haughty

la.1t importance that ho should prevent all
oommunicolion with his camp und the ene-

tbe whole resources of tho city thould be at

.od held up to tho world as a tyrant, by the
ury men who now sustain Mr, Linxoln in
his usurpations.

There is not tbe sllgbtoil shade of Incon-

rf any one had Iho fainl.'fit hope in Presi-
dent Lincoln, as the laot Irust of those in
authority at WaahiDgton, that hope is ei-
tinguished by bla recent Aunuai Message,
and henco there ia no time to lose by those
who beliovo that his policy mus'. if buo-
oessful, destroy bvery Tustigoof liberty in
Ibis lond once flowing ■■ with milk and hon-

acheroea of negro tjonocipation, which is
thrown oQt as a bone of contention tv lasl
uniri "liHJO," esfiiPdby the Presidnot him-

The President, with a auple and fanatical
Congress, ready to do. or to sanolion. any
act tending to destroy this greot people, with
an army raised under Ihtt pretense of hut-
ing the Union, with Iho irholc resources of
the people at his command, can do a vaat
deol lo carry out his unbridtfd will, before
the people of the North, however much
oppoied lo his schemes, can arrest bis

movement and work among the people to
jeoure and carry forward what we hare
gained at tbo electiona:

Belleville, 111., Deo. 3, 18G2.
Dear Fiiikst>:— I addresa you an open
UtUT and hope U will have sufficient merit
for the press to circulate it, so jou may see
it.

I ECO by the papera that you wero/.rcri/
to abandon your homo and take refuge iu
the interior of your Slate. On your travel
the people colled on you to address them,
and when you arose in the nasembly to
t.p«ak, teara of sorrow for your cuuntry
ftll profusely from your eyes.

Nogoodman — no patriot — can look around
at the misery and calamity the nation is at
this lime 6ufl"-:ring, without hia heart being
moved to tears at the downfall of this
mighty empire and tbo consequent misery
of the people.

The above short notice of your address
forced vividly on my mind thu youthful
Jays wo spent together lo the summer of
1810, in the college in Knoi county. Ten-
nessee, nhcro we were etadenis together at
ihesameinslitutiouofleotniiig— wherein the
Kev. Isaac Anderson was the I'rcsident. I
have not seen you since we were togorher
in tfaeeamo college in IblO ; but your pub-
lic life is well known to me und tho notion,
and it is highly appreciated by me.

Wo were poor, obecuro kda at college,
and we could not dream of Ibe aingulnr des-
tiny that attended ob in our eventfal lives.
We both entered into the war of ISI2 as
privates, and yon were Boon promotud, but
I got no higher than Oiderly Sargeaut uf
the company of United Slates iiangers ;
benee, I am called, -Tho Old KoHger."

Wo were both elected ticivernora of our
respective Slates, and were elected to Con-
fess for many aeselona, but nut at the

You weio tbo hero of tbo independence

When wu were lohoriug with tbouaande

We pablisb tbo following most import-
ant letter from a gentleman in Kentuolty,
n all conatilutiooal Union men
may rely with tho utmost confidence. It
will be seen that he is laboring to bring to-
gether all the force ho can iuio thu arrange-
ment to i-o-ostabli^h the Union. We never
nt have despaired of the fiuul
of these Statos once more in-
to happy and prosperous fullonsbip, pro-
vided the true, bold, fearless old couilitu-
tional Democracy could get theasceudi-ncy
the Northern States. On this hope we
planted ourself on the out-set and resolved
id to our work, wilting, for tbo time
being, to withstand the lies and misrepresen-
tiliuoB of knaves and foob, of which the
country has plenty. Tbo charges of dis-
lyally, sympatbiziog with tho rebellion,
-aitor to Ibe Union and all such stuU,
ame from quarlera where Ibero was neither
mne enough to save auy decent Gov-
ernment, nor true pnlrioli^ni enough to
the coonlry which they pretended
lio eucb a leading interest in support-
These vilifiere of ours never wanted
ve Ibe Union. Their whole purpose
from the first was to destroy it, and failing in
divide it into free and slave seolionp.
It tbey could destroy slavery and convert tho
'erumentinto a military monarchy they
lid do that. If that failed then the
Soothern Slates witb slavery were never to
be token baok.

These issues and purposes of the Hepuh-
;aii9 are now publicly and very boldly
;0[Ted, and against these hellish purposes
of those in outhorjiy nt Wasbingloa, tho
)emocfBoy of the Norib have contended,
nd tbo people of the North have severely
ebuked at our recent elections. This
pens a new field of reflection, and it is
peuing tho eyes of thousands to tho foot,
a every pari of the civilized world, that thare
9 an element of middle ground against the
no citrcmes, larger than the eilremea
hemselvc,", even if Ihey wereuciled, which,
rhcn opportunity offers will alow ilself
equal to a re-union of these States, if it
properly handled aud thoroughly un-
derstood. Il will lake no mean mind, bow-
to direct it. No balf-beurted or weak
kneed time SEirvers can lead in the great un-
dertaking— nothing but n broad patriotism,
rificiog ppirit, and an honesty of
purpose which knowa no fear, aud baulks not
the way. Lot tbo Domoorala, therefore,
press on, steadily, fuithfully. knowingly In
the great work, and tboro is a crown of glory
laid up for them, aucb ns no olher pi-nple

tion of an old Keuluoliy Democrat for Tht
Criih. It is sent as a thank offering for
the 'u'l^conii;^'' f ou gave, in a recent num-
ber, to that aroh emissary of traitorous aboli-
tionists, who presides over the columns of
the LouimilU Journal— George DirtboluB
The Journal onco bad at ibis
post office more than half a hundred anb-
Bcrlbere, now it has less than half a dozen.
Tboro has, no doubt, been a corrcspond-
ig decline in huudroda of olher neighbor-
hoods in the Stale. Tho immense loss of Ken-
lucky suhsoribers which the Journal has
sustained, added to Uio toUl loss of South-
ern patronage, has made tbo Journal a men
dicani upon Abolition rharili/, aud a subject
uf Gorernmenlal pulmnuge, of whioh facli

The Journufof the 4ih says: "Dr. Ed-
son B. Olds has been elected to tho Legis-
lalure from Fairfield County, Ohio, by i
majority of two thousand five hundred, a
result lo bt seriously reffrclted." No doubl
the Journal rtgiels all such Democratic trl
pbs. If Borne treasonable AbulliionlBt

OwEKSuoBO, Kv., Knr. 27. 18C2.

Hon-. S. McDAny— Pear Sir r I am a
recent subscribHr to your paper, and read
it Willi great pleasure aud profit. You of
the North had, seemingly, beoouie so united
upon the eiofiple question uf nu party and
hustility to the South, that I, with other
good mm. thought and feared tho good
sense of the people would not bo restored
until evi'ry vestige of personal liberty was
lost to tbo land wo tove.

But thanks lo the moral heroiim of that
Urst man of the age and ti'nci (Vallandig-
AamJ wu now have reason to hope that wo
still live In a land of law and liberly. Tbo
Democracy have done much lo accomplish
Ihis, but much mora still remaina lo be
done. Now, when you have roeatablJBbed
your right to the writ of habias corpus,
and shall have repealed or modified that
most odious tan la«. will you permit the
ooofiscaiiou act, that foul blot on the
alatute hook of tho nation, to remain the
law of tbia land ?

Your ntlCDtion ia particularly callrd to
the law, making what ia known as green
backs, a legal tender— and though it may
alway.s remain at 1"AK, the premium on

moves from the contractor and capitalist's
bands to Ibosa of the people. Now, sir,
our laws require that guardians shall loan
tbo money uf wards and take notes witb
personal security. In many instances
where gold or its equivalent, hove been so
lovined, Ibe debt, if sow paid, would be dis-
charged by this largely depreciated cur-
rency, wiih no hope of its improvement;
thua depreciating or waiting the infani'd es-
tate by operation ol law. aud without
laches or negligence of Ibe guardian, and
what is said here to apply, is alike applica-
ble to other hitatea.

It was strange that the people of this
land should have been divided in opinion as
lo the meaning of the President's Inaugural
Address— it was moro strange that the
President should have acknowledged the
rights of the States to certain instilulions,
in hia message to the called session of Con-
gress— and stranger still, that he should
have modilied Freinont'B procedure in Mis-
BOuri^and passing atraoge, after these
things, that he shijuld have issued that
beauiiful proclamation to uproot the very
fouudalioua of society, and eslabbsh one
universal rotgn of anarchy aud confusion.
It il mid. Vial Nero fiddled while Home
icas burning; but our Preiident yirpe-
Iratts a joke on the agonies of a nnfion.

I will nut undertake a dc^oriplion of ibe
desolatik>Q which marks the traok of tho
Union army iu the South. But, sir, what-
evoc may be the sentiment of the people
North, the army, as it goes, leaves its
mark, as did that army which overthrew the
Western Empire of itumo. Are these
things desired by your peopla ?

A IvL.STUCKIAN,

We answer, no! They are not only not
" desired," hut tbey ere denounced in
langunge by every Northern man and wo-
man, with tho oiception of the bitter nod
fanatical Abolilioniats and tbo preachers of
abolition gospel. There arc no deeper re.
grc'ls than that our young men sent to tho
urmy should be thus demoralized and render-
ed unfit for civil or social life after their re-
turn. A largo mejority of those in the
army do not desire it, and most of the first
of&cors oommaadiag did nut desire il, but
they have been dismissed or threatened with
diamiseal. The Democrats of tho North
with cno voice denounce the barbarous nets
of a atildiery, come from where Ihey may,
and especially do tbey protest against Ibo
ohargo coming against them. If war was
Inevitable the Democrats desired that It
ehould bo oonduolod with tbo single view of
restoring the Union, end for that purpose
tbey desired that il ehould he carried on on
the highest and noblest principles of civil-
lied warfare. But Ihis desire has been
overruled as far as Abolitionism could con-
trol il.

Woooupied It fur days— und itrellected

nothing agatnit tho leaders of the National
forces that Ibe enemy thus got Ihe vantaffO
ground, witb a vastly superior force. The
uniform of the rebel army Is a dirty gray,
or whiliah brown. This is ao near the cohir
of the earth, and of tho leaves broivned by
October frosts, that unless you bavo a dark
back-ground. It is hard to distinguish them
frntn inonimato objects. As they, in pari,
camo into open view, and delivered their
fiio, destructive of life, as they eaw from
the gnping ranks before tbem, it seemed

Kiposed thus lo a double fire, and from
vaally superior forces, tho men of MoCook's
corps, fought as men fight, from sheer des-
peration. The GeueraTin command was in
the rear, and was deaf, it is said, to all Mo-
Cook's appeals for aid. Tho roar of Ibo
musketry was so deafening that not one shot
~ lid be distinguished from another, and so
d was it, that even the huum of tho can-
I. na bntlory after buttery, from each hill
sidu aud lop, for miles arouud, were belohing
forth ibeir thunder.*, could scarce be heard.
I'^ur huurs that heroic hand, somn tpgiments
hisiuB twu thirds of their number, fuugbt
and fill, pouring out Iht-irllfu hhiud In vair,
whiln hopinir for reinforcoments that were
not sent. Perhaps Ihey wero needed in
other parts <if the lipid, for by this llmo tbe
battle ra^ed for milea around Porryville,
and the whole rebel army iviia engaged. Of
this I koow not, but tho opinions of tho of-

(Ould not. if I ciiuld. fulloiv the fortunes
of tho other corps sf thi) army, for I never
was good at Oi deseriptlun, and your space is
too valuublw til be lakeu up by an attempt
"hiob would only result in making cohfuaion
wor^e confounded.

A^ night dre'v her sshlo curtain, and from
dorkueas end exhaustiuu tho Cgbl ccaaei',

lirave troops I'oreed back, sk'pt ui>t up
uu tbc Geld of buttle. It was in possession
of the enemy. A Surgeon who passed ihat
horrid night in tbeirliues iu altendiog to the
wounded, lold tne of one thing which will
aetvo. in romo ini'osnr'-, Iu relievo tbe dark
catalogue of crime with nbiph. innocent or
guilty, the rebels stand cburc>'d, since Eri>t
the rehclliuD bruke out. Il is this : No dif-
ference waa made iu their treotmont of tho
wounded— Ilrbel and Uniun were alike cured
fur, Iu tbe orient uf the limited means of the
accBssion army. Upon tbo same stretches,
B9 iha sort of half cot is called, used for
bringing in the wounded, aud upon Ibe same
tru^a of alruvr ur blanket, when brought iu,
oould be f.iund men of both armies who, du-
ting thnt day, hud fuught with all the fury
engendered by bate against each other. —
And when tbo next day Uragg and his army,
indisposed lo reuaw the Bgbi, retreated aud
Uft their wounded iu our tiandi^, all shared
vlihourown wounded, the kind atteotions
uf the medical stuff.

What would have been the fnto of many
a gallant man bud it not been for the '* Sol-
diers' Aid SooiutiC'S," and the Uuilcd States
Sanitary Cummia^i'in, Heaven ouly kuow«.
If some of those who deride the eft'uria ol
those collecting supplies oould have seen,
as I have, tho great good these sanitary
stores have donoi tho suSoring they have
alleviated, endtbelivea they have saved, they
would bkas ihoio whose benevolent hcods

The CouilltlDU of our Couniry,

Ii U no use any looger to dingoise the
ficl that our country U piuDgiDg into dif-
ficoUiPs deeper and deeper aa PBch day
JiDps into lie eteinily uf the past. Wv
Id, were it possible todoao, aod behon-
ti\. pass by the unirelcoine theme, and turn
uido to more welooma sabjeots. Bat one
i^f our grealeal mlafuctunei baa been tbs
ijsteoitttio labors of those who have olaim-
fi the eiclatiive right to be Loyul and to ill'
net tbo mind! as wpll as the aclions of men,
lo either withhold the UtiOt or to go distort
uid misrepresent it, that magniGoent castles
sere continually beiug bniU in tbe air, to
Jijappearwilh tbe first gust of wind.

Theae tbings have st.:aJily grogressed,
but from bad to worse, fioui the firing of
lbs fitjt gun op to the present hour. For
lbi» last eighteen loonlhs, two hundred
Ihousnnd soldiers, at the lowest estimate,
bsvebeen kept around the Capitol ot Wash-
ington, either to protect it from aasuult, or
fur tbe purpose of taking Ricbmond, the
Capital of the Ccnfedernlca. Tbeae two
cspitals are less Ibaa one hundred milps
spurt; jet thtre they both stand to-day
unjeathi-d by the bulletsofuilher of the bel
ligeranta. lo the various battles, skir-
mishes and by siofenesa, more than one hun-
dred tbausond hrave men have fallen a sacri'
Cce almost within heaiiiig of ihe cannon's
roar of our ono Capital. And at tha lael hour,
"hpn the greatest promisee of ail were made
ui, wo find our gallant nrmy not only com-
pelled to turn back from its last march tu
Itirbmond, but under a defe^it as biirible f r
ill bluL dy character, as raoDSlroQB In its
cooseqaences upon our future.

It will do but liUle good oow to establish
court marlials or to aearoh by uongressional
conimitlecs into " wbo is Id blame." We
have got beyond tbe point of rectifying
blaodcrs, or shifting bluuie from Iho slioul-
ilers of one to aaotbcr. Wbeu tbe timbers
tre falling, lo sit and scold the man who oui
the props, will nut save your bf ad from be-

ing broken.

The deed ie done— thi
rictory is nothing bui

liacd

butoliPry
bravely obeyed the ordei
li<J Ihem to Ihe jaws of un inevitable death,
A few more aueh misfortunes and our boisl-
fi army of a million of men is eitinguiabed,
M far as its osefulooss is concerned. Nol
Only eilinguished, but butchered by con-
ceded iucompetonoy and hluudering. Wilh
OQT present army goes our fiuanoes, lottei
ing every hour upon tho verge of its ow
procipiee. 'What ihPn ?

Can another army he taisod? Can tb
men be obtained I If so, can tbe means i
trmingi ei]uippiDg and feeding then bo si
cated ! Thi:fo are tho gravest doubl
■heibcr either can be done. If nol. whr
Iten? These aro grave questions, which
Matesmen must ever bavit before thorn, and
"hioh bavo to bo considered.

I'ranoa bae from seventy-five
<lred thousand men in tbu Gulf

with I

progress. She has almndy taken tbe inltia-
tiro of an Inlorferonee in behalf of the Con-
ffJcrato Government, with ibo consent of
^1 Iho other powers of Europe, and may
'Odd be in our way, with or without " the
Hun roe dootrlno."

lu the midst of Ibis gloom, if not despon-
^i-'Dcy. wo hear rumors of changes In tbe
t«binet, and a gentrni reeonatruolion of
^*>l, if not the military, organisations ; bat
"ilhout an army, and without the finuDolal
■bilily to pay the claims of tbe present one,

ifTering and crumbling to pieces for tbe

ant of what is due it; or to construct an

her to fill up the gaps in its broken

iuk$, what will a changed Cabinet amount

>I If it Is a war Cabinet, it must have

lOOPy and mtn— nol thousands of men, but

hundreds of thousands — not milliuna of dol-

rs, but hundreds of millions.

If the Cabinet is to bo more negro fanat-

at than before, where then are Ibn men,

where is the money, lo come from T If Cun-

lo be called into Ibe Cahinel,

and Conservative Generals put at Ihe head

of ibe nriny, then the whole plan of auhju-

gsting States, freeing the negnies, and con-

fiscnling property, will he repudiated, and

the terrible loss of men and the incaloulable

losa of treasure will be set down to " profit

and lojs." t^ The waste of a mistaken

policy !

When this conft^sion comes officially to
the world, there will bo somo baiting in
both the recruiting servioo and in the purses
r tbose invited to supply tbe wants of the
Treasury. There will b& a olusa qui'stion-
iugof tbe Coiifri'Qlii-f demand for men and
money, whether similar ciicumatances might
not produce similar couseiguences. Because
ot forget that up to the last three
inths, we had the dally reiterations
from tbe Hepublicans and these Cunaerva-
tives, that Ibu war was not intended to free
ibe negro, but lo save the country. Tbe
lid be nothing more than falling
hack on decUraiious only about tbroe
lODlhs ago abandoned.
Will such a obange satisfy tbe coontry —
iho another army of ^OO.OfJD men. and fuc-
\ih another thousand millions of dollars T
Tboae are tbe couditions on which a change
n tbe Cabinet, if conservative, must be
made. Il will insure us a prolongatiun of
thi* war at least two years, if the men and
money could be raised, and foreign iuterven-
ion postponed. If all these cannot be se-
ured. then the Coniernatict tc^r would be
s ullor a failure as tho abotilion u:ar has
leen, and from tbe very same reason — the
ittempt to subjugate Ulates, instead of pul-
ing down armed rcUUion. A Slate cannot
tiet. The English understood this ho well
that they aholiabed tbe Piirliamonls of Seot-
taud uud Ireland, so that no vestige of a
Slate, or separate local or territorial inde-
pendence cuuld remain, or legislative juris-
dictions contliot.

There is but one way tn ever secure the
harmonious notion of these Stales again, as
Stales, and there never has been any other
this terrilic withdrawal of Stales from
the General Government occurred, and that
I by calling a convention of ibe Stales, by
utborired delegates. Thnse delegates
buuld properly be eleelt'd by The people,
two for a State and one from eaob Congress-
ional Distriot.

Without snoh a convention we never oan
learn Ihe real temper and purposes of the
p-iople of each Slate for Itself, and tbe ob-
jects desired or required by each, from
'bioh to organize an adjuslmentora policy.
This was tbe original blunder, and we
ave blundered on. gelling farther and far-
ther from our reckuniug, ConHTcaliir)
(who they are we do nol know,) commenc--
fuundilion of bluuderlng-i, and toll un
Ibiy can blunder more to Ibe aalisfaclion of
tbe people than tbeir next relatives, tbe Ah
olitioniMS.

C<)mmeDcing, aa they must, on an eihaus-
ted basis, and tbo people a good deal wiser
to-day than rhoy were two years ago, wo
have no doubt but their failure would be
moto speedy aod overwhelming than that of
their predecessors.

The sooner, therefore, oar onibitlous

leaders submit this whole question to the

Sti.les and the people, as a measure of peuoe.

and nol oT war, the Hoooor will we begin to

roali'^e our trua situation, and wonder al

tbo stupidity of those who have run us ihl"

mournful round of woe^and deaolation. We

thorotore give a friendly warning to those

Dimocrats, fur to wo bellovo iney oall them

leap into the bloody shoes of the Abolition-

ills, under tho title of " Conservalives,''

Elgbtl) of Jiiiiunry lu St. LonlS'

A letterfromSt. Louis. Missouri, informs
IS that the Democrats of that ciiy, taking
courage from the recent elections in "the
N'orthwest and East, will have a celubratiou
nlbe 8th, aod colleot together the scatter-
ed forces of tbe old Couatituliooal Democ-
raoy, and prepare to unite tlieir fortunes
itb the successful Democracy of these
lie triumphant States.
We bid them good cheer and eiteod lo
them friendly congratulations in their man-
ly efiorls. It is by these means, and these
ily that WB oan hope for a future worth
'lug in — a peoce which will bring with it
prosperity — an administration of tho laws
hich will protect men in tbe posseasion of
their bomes, and none to make Ibem afraid
by such future intercom man ion of
fuuiided on the great principle of a
n bumunity and the intertwining of
beating for tho great common ob-
jects of d common couniry, that our power
in be restored, republican government
uiutaiued. the olive branch introduced be-
'een tbe Statoa, and reasou and good atates-
ansbip spread tbeirbenign influenoea once
ore over a butobered couniry.
Thn people, tbo true source of all power.
must assume tbeir true status, or liberty and
from us forevtr. Men led as-
tray by mistaken views, honestly taken, or
driven away by despair, whether deceived
hj abolitioniatd that n mighty work was lo
he dona for tbe negro, or carried off under
tbe impression that nrms alone could settle
tbe controversy, maal have a chance of reo-
tlfyiug their condition by a return to their
peaceful avocations, and lime to sober inlo
culm refieotion. We must sift the wilful
from tho well intended, tbe stubborn fanatic
from tbe man who yields to reason's claims
>on our common humanity.
And we live under tbe aulemn conviction
at nothing will tend so rapidly and cer-
tuiply tu this great end aa a revival of that
pure old Constilulioual Democracy, which
just what it professes. It is a party
of courage, of faith, of a holy confidence
people, if left to a free and uncon-
trolled eipresiion of opinion and of DCtloD.
e atill capable of saving a nation from ut-
r eitinoiion. and this fttenl people from
idless commotion and civil wars that the
child is yet to be born to see ended.

This intention, therofore, to celebrate the
lib in St. Louis, we consider one of tho
nost encouraging signs of the season,
lud we hope all good men will either en-
luuragu it or n-juicu that the confiiols in
that distorted region are assuming the forms
of peace and order. When those are once
d then will men soon begin
I reason together, and when
ihoy differ, differ according to the rules of
constitutional governmeuC and tbo rights of
uilUenahip, as preacribe.d iu our great code
f froTdoui.

We find tho folloniog moat significant

letter from Washington to tbo frnciniflli

Gaztitt, from its regular correspondent

'Agate." It develops a most alarming

state of affairs, and no one need be at all

prised to spe ourselves some of these

dayswithoat any government at all. The

scenes here detailed show that we conaot

11 hove a worse condition of affairs in

d around tbe While House. It is dis

graceful to the last degree, aod when wo re-

lleot on tho condition of our country, the

ide spread ruin, and monstrous barbarities

orge that it is difficult to grasp it in our

miuda eye at once, in tbo name and by tbe

ithorily of these men, described below by

le of their own devoted friends, heretofore,

id political advocate even to toadyism, it

enough to bewilder the coolest calculator

We have italioiaed some most remarkable
ImisBiona and assertions of this correa-
poodeut of the OaielK. Did wo ever say
any thing in The Crisit aa directly fatal to
tho honesty and ability of the Administra-
from the President down, as Ibis T We
have long been convinced of the existence
if a statu of sffjira at Washington, which
ibould alarm every lover of his country or
lis kind, but wo have endeavored to prove
thom by facta aa they occurred, rather than
by vague or undefined assertion. Wa have
tried to school the public mind lo the dread
hour which we knew the corrupt, ignorant,
mbecile managers of our publio oiTairs

Honest men, who had the gcod of their
jountry at heart, would never have aeUed

le viiui willing tu lake the oalh and give tbe bond,
nd yet it waa months beftire tlie priann doors
vero opeaed to Ihat citizen. I have been in-
formed, since the Senator made that statement,
. highly rejpectabld gentleman, that Mr, Ben-
u ThnmoB, Mr, Towlca and Mr. Huat, of tiot
, were in tbo same category. The fact may
bo oa bo states ; il was not ao a little while
ago. But I aek the Sennlor in oil oandor, if he
^re arrested iutbat way upon vague chargea ol
iloyalty, would be eo lower the ataadard of hia
inhood as to bo williog to tniif, on oalh uu-
own to the Conititutioti and lows to procure
1 release I I should dislike cunGnemenl lu a pru-
on, 1 have nu] doubt, aa much nE< any man. but 1
ly now Ihat if I Bbould bn orreated. before I
ould obtain my discharge in that way, I would
langniah lor life io the prisoo. I woold took npon it
— D implied and tacit admisiiDn ol tbo charge. I
lid stand lurlh boldty and demand a trial under
tbe laws of my country. Tea, air, I would want
my children and those who are (ocomeafler me to
eee that I stood vindicated before the proper
tnbunala, the courts of m^ country. I would do
-- act that by implioatioo, direct or indirect.
Id iudicatu that I acknowledged tbo olfenae
of which I woa charged I admire the lolty
gentlemen who refused lo tata)
tbeae oitbs. I do not ceaeure thoae who look
theoi. It IS a, matter uf pervonal connider^tion

I aiocerely desire tbe supremacy of tbe laws ot

air, do: but they demand that the innocent go

has committed on ofleuae:" but they go abiint m
tbe dork, and tbey wbiaper into tbe car of thoae
IB authority cba'gea against men better than tbom-
aelvea. The charge is believed. No opportunity
IB given lo the peraoaa accused uf rebuiting it or
of meeticg it. but Ihey are impritoned for months
upon montha to gratify the malice, perhaps, of o
personal enemy. The priflonaore full of men put
la iu that way, I do not think any government
ought to encourage Buob a Duaerable eiitot vermin;
lor I can tell you. air, if omou baa nottbebonesl
manhood and boldnuaa when he wishes to arrest

Tbe gentleman from Illinois said we could base
nothiog on this resolutiun, if tbe information ask-

of the facta, we will bo enabled to legialote in such
manner aa to protect the rights ofthe citizen, and
pass laws punisbiog more eevorely your civil au-
tborilicaaod your military outborilie* for depriv-
ing tbe citinens of tbeir liberty. None of thom
are above the law. Wheaover tbe magistracy
get above the taw. tbea yuu have a despoliam. I
want tbe (arte. I want Item with Ibe view that
if thefo men arc innocent they may be diacborRed.
1 want tbem with another now, that if they are

be puniabed. Does a mngiBlrate, wbo arroflts a
man he knowa Ut be guilly, disetaorge bis duly by
locking him up for montha, and tbeu discharging
hiin without trial! No, air ; if he knowa the man
t'> be gDilty, be ought lo bond him over tu tbe
courts aod have bimpuuished tor the offeoae. —
That la hii duty; and il bu letd bim go when lie

it is their duty to hand bim over to the courts aud

When the President had ctpaed this solil-

Wo tried tbo eiperimeat of conducting a pa-

The eiperiiaeot waa a fearful ooe, from the lung

Wo olfcKd our paper to TKR people, Ond
trusted to Ihem oad them atone for support. Wo
thus kept oiiraelf whollf Ireo from any inleresle
which could in any way control our freest and
mort conscientious thought. Wo dared tbiok
freely and speak tbo Irulh. Wo dared open our
columoa to the freest diicuaaion ot the ijreat and
mighty questions eflocting tbo dearest interea

Wh hsdbutone great, grand object in v

ms, aome of tbom living in distant couo-

having in Columbus an old faabioned meet
of the Democraoy on the 8th, at all
events. A spontaneoua, open, Iroe meet-
ing of tbo Democracy, who ore not ready
yet to forget tbat lime honored and glori

It ia also BOggeated that Dr. OluS be

[ho fistivo board tho spirit of the glorious
past, where Dr, Olds will enligbten Ihe

ioious intrieacies of the celestial regions of

It is by means of these reading nnd
speaking aasoolotiona that the people n
keop themselves informed on all quoatiu
effecting their Interests. Now ia the lii
to lay iho foundation of next fall's si

faota as long as poaslblo. Bad indeed muai
t " the situation " when its conaequonoes
0 feared if known.

The reports of tho number of onr killed
id woiindi'd aro aa oontrttdiotory as though
the battle bud occurred a thousand mile;
from Washiogton. We beHevo the lowest
<8timato now made is i^J.OOO. the bighesi
2-j,000. JoHH CovooE, a member of Con-
gress, who was on the ground, puts it al
17,1X10. The number ot our troops on that
sidn ol the river during Saturday must hm
been over KtO.OUO, The number of offioe
killed nnd wounded show that there must
largo army engaged io the fight
last. The number of prominent
officers killed and wounded bhow that a mutb
larger amount of the rank and &lo were
killed and wounded than baa been conceded.
Our men fought well— stood up to tho awful
work like veterans, all admit — then could
such an army have been driven back ufier
tho repeated efforta of a whole day to storm
iho fortificaliona with a "trifling losa," as
some would make it. Would such an army
have ro-croaaeil tbo river uuder cover of the
nigbt, taking advantage of a storm, if it Lad
nut received a shock greater than eomu
are willing to confess ?

Tsko all those tbuigs together, and we
may as well make up onr minds to the fact,
however unwelcome, that our army was on
the point of being annihilated, and it is now
strongly urged tbat it must go into "win-
ter quarters." and the cry of "on to liiuh-
mood" bo oguin suspended. 1 ho loss of
tho Confederates was small compared to
ours, aud that was mainly on the left, iu the
contest with Fbankli.s'9 Division. The
whole loss of the Confederates is put down
at 501) killed and 2,500 wounded. This is
ibe highest eatimato. 7,000 of our wounded
have already arrived at the hospitals around
Waahiuglon.

: id not tho killed and wounded alone
make op the loss of a defeated army
such an occasion. The number of
ragglera," as they ore called, seldom
at leas than the others. A large army,
cb loaes 15,000 or 20,000 men in an un-
fortunate battle, ia weakened 30,000 or 40,-
its effioiency, if not io numbers,
ill account for the conatflrnation at
Wasbiogtoui and the damning consequences
of this last blunder have ao re-acted upon
of Government that it is
followed by a general row in the Cabinet
uncilJ, and the whole Government seems
though it would utterly expludo.

HI WnslilnKion.

Among oil tho ooofusion into which onr
country seems to be involving itself, neth-
ing ia more suggestive than Ihe blow up j^
tho Cabinet. It has long been known thst
there was a great lock of harmony jg n,
S'ational Councila, growing out of Iha cor-
'upLiooa aod ombitionof those oongregit,j
there. It is also well known thatCongreij.
men, instead of representing the ptopli.
who elected them, have been feathering (btii
purses out of theae Cabinet corrupliou,
and heocB Congresa and tho Deparlmpnii,
instead of acting in their several pphoreh
and looking after tho business of the G,it.
emment and the people, have been meddtiog
with everything else, nnd it became nec*a-
sary to mislead Iho people and aocompliih
heir unholy enda, to mako tho weak an']
lilly President, as furna poasible, the acape
goat of (heir action. They clothed hioi
with dictatorial power, placed the Uvea uj
property of the whole people in his po<icr,
and under the bandit cry of tbo ■' jait dul-
ir and the last man,'' proceeded to plundii
10 country instead of to save it fromtlis
-boUion.
But. OS ia usual in auch caaes, tbeio n
either patiiotisin nor honor amocg lbs
manngora, and soon after the meeting gf
Congress intrigues were set on foot tojflslk
it of tho nay offensive memhera.
The Senators undertook the job, andtbt
defeat of Burkside at Fredericksburg gin
(hem an opportunity to force tbe m^atnte.
Hence n meeting of Senators waa held to
matters to instruct the Prefideal
ange must be made in tho Cabiad,
Mr. Seward waa struck at first, nnd thu
coming to his ears, be at unca re>ign(il.
Mr. Chasg, who, it seems, was in Uaggf

■nmtB aro three prisons at Camp Chase —
Ho. 1. 2 and 3. One of thorn is oocnpied
Ijpdilitiil prisoners olonp, and it was to
thiB one our remarks referred, as *••"" ■"-

Bdoty we owed onr Slate

1 treatment of men who were
B6»ei'iD arms, had never left their homes
HOT thrii families, did not know for what
they were arrested, not who wero their ac-
ensCTB, Dor permitted to have a trial.

That snoh men should ba treated wnrfe
ai»B ordinary oriminala— like dogs— we felt
wu a disgracetoall coaoemedinit. Th-re
lias been no denial of oat charges, nor na
sttenipt to deny Ihem, with the osception of
a mere iooidentol remarl: in the Journal of
this c'rty in its "local" columna. Thelocul
of the Journal went over there on Sunday
bat to attend divine aorvico— so he eayf—
on the ootflide. not in the prison, and in ad-
dition to hearing a aormoa, he was told tba:
ibings were not as bad there aa The Crisis
had stated !

We understand there has been an eitra
kbnVet or two furnished each prisoner since
MT nrlicle appeared. But we will relit-se
tbs Journal by statiog that we by no means
recited all the acta diagrnooful to the man-
agfeia of that prison which can be proven
«t inTMtigation. The only thing we ever
bmd in favor of Camp Chase was, that tha
political prison at Louisville, Kentucky,
e^ecially ao far us food was concerned, was
iniBnftely more intamoua than this. If that
is any oonaolation, those intereslod are w..l-
iwme to it. though it does not take from
what we said of Camp Chase odp iota of it?
fcortora and barbarities.

We said nothingof tho little buy, lhirt*K'n
years old. belonging to Gallipolis, Ohio,
-whe wo.-, for months, kept in Camp Chase
prison during tlia summer and early fall,
i*l]Ose otily orim- was that, being on a boat
he owed a loyal woman in Western Virgli
fifteen eeots, a balance on washing she .
for him while (he boat laid at tho wharf
where ahe lived, on tho Ohio river. Forlbis
debt of Efleea centd. he was reported to thi
niihtnry authorities as disloyal, was seizei
and aent to this political prison, where h<
wM kept for months!

■We said nothing of the Jungtan they
have there— a duagooa for poUtical prison-
tn, and the manner of keoping men in it by
woy of punishment for any trivial oOence.
This dungeon is mhde of wood, quite con-
fiaed and perfectly dark, a real " lur tight,"
3t ia built aboot two feet from the ground,
viera mud puddle, with four inch augur
bole! in the bottom floor, bored in a Bort of
a^naie, close together, directly over the mud
goddlo. At tho lop directly over these au-
gnrboleB isafour -'■ i-i^ .- r-

amed. At the timo 6ied, an outer plonk

as pryed off, and the night being very

(lark, ihey commeaoed iasuing from the

yatda iLey heard a command given; and in-

ntly sprang up before them from the

grass a fil.. of soldiers, and click, oliok,

the rifle looks, and they were, ail who

got outsido, brought up standing at the

point of bayonets and cooked rifles, and

hu?tjed back to prtaon !

The men who entered into the arrabj^ement
and paid their money and gold watch, were
ished by forty-eight hours in the dun.
1. and the money aad watch never re-
turned I Not even when they were dis-
barged, which moat of them were, becauie
'irrc trerc no charges against fhfm. Can Col.
Alliso.v, who was toon after sent to take
charge of Camp Deuniaon, tell what has he-
me of the money and watoh ?
We notioed this affair alluded to in the
local columns of the Journal oE this oity, at
the time, in itt funny way, hut from tho ly-
ing oboraoter of that department of the
lal and the outrageous character of
CI. wo could not then bring oureelf tf

■■ Oar neighbor " of the Journal will find
imaeif convicted in the above of a very
dirty triok— nothing less than what omounis
ti a forgery. The Journal very well knew
that anything oredited to the Chicago Irib-
unr. carried with it its evidence of falsifioB'
tion. The commonest perjurer might tell
the truth, of coursn. but his chonicter fui
falsehood deatroya his weight of testimony.
It is so with the Triiune— a paper for rock-
less blackguardism. f)Ul incendiaryism, anci
destitution of reliability aa to facta, has m
superior in the country— not oscepting th.
St. Louia Dcmacrat. nor Greelbi-'s Trti-
UTW, of New York.

Ihree papers were long the organs
of lAievei. robbers and mwderm. spreading
vile falsehoods through the land, and
which the present terrible war origin

tion, viz: upon what aathority or principle
does tho GovernmoDt nt Washington pay

0 expenBes of a State Militin. not under

the fact T

Several of tho leading eastern n>'publi-

u papers have denounced this foul act of

JIcNeu. in most bitter terms, and exouae

tho I'reaident by assorting that tho murder-

aoliog on tho authority of Governor

Gauule. At least some of them do.

Wo are very well convinced that the
oouor some onu who has authority looks
.fler tho daily transactions of what is called
ho mililary in Missouri, the better it will
be for the honor of our country. It is use-
less fortho President, tho Seorelary of War,
of Congress, to soy that they are not re-
sponsible for these acts, directly or indi-
rectly. Such crimes cauuot onduxo. and
called to ftccount for them.
They will spread and finally culmiuato in-
volving the whole West in their oonsoquon-
, is to escape these consequences
that we have called public attention to them,
and it was to destroy any effoct our orticlus
ight produce, that tho above fie and /or -
TV were gotten up.

We are not at all surprised that the abo-
litionists fonl sensitive about having their
inaactiooB in filissouri exposed. They ore
^11 aware of the crimes nod outragea Ihny
e committing there, and of thobo they yet
lend to commit, and it will be a matter of
' small inturoat to them to keep the public
ignorance, and we have been chutitablo
ough to tbiok that the President and tho
Secretary cf War were ignorant, also, yot
ia may not be — we will hopo it ia.

What cow are those mea doing ! Violating

peopln I Is it any wonder that foreign na-
tions treat tbia Administration with con-
pt?

'ill confine onr attention in this sketch to
woorlhreo napeota of poUtioal bigotry.

It la tho genios of American political
bigotry, that it has little aolioitudo about
great American political prinoiplos and pol-
icies. but is earnest and jealons about some
speoial political scheme or undertakiug,
ime it iB going to put dowii tno
at other times popery, intemper-
lavery. It seta no value upon our
federal Uulon, the sovereign dignity aod
rights of tbo States, the liberty of oitizena

red by the oooatltntional bill of rights,

tubordination of the mililary to tho civil
er. the responsibiUty of public offican,
tho distribution of tho powers of tho Got-
oramont in separate aad independent do-
parlmenta, tho eovoreignty of the peoplu,
the necessity of compromise, the independ-
ence aod ultimate authority of tho Judiciary,
the importance of a mild and cheap admin,
istration of government, or upon any of tha
prucUcal and philosophical political princi-
ples upon which the Constitution ia foand-
ad ; but it regards the partlcoloi- end whJoh
It has at the time in view, as including all
thalia valuable iu Civil governmonl. Con-

iquently, overv man who contributes hit

d to forward.tlio grand euloi-prise. is a pa-
triot and a model of virtue ; and every moo
who faila to do tbij. is a traitor and a
persoQificBlioo of all that is bnd. The end
muat bo attained, even if it costs tho des-
truction of the Cooatitution, the ruin of tho
oouQtry and the life-blood of hundreds of
thousands of men; and he who would pro-
teat against tho costly aacrifici-. ia a monster
and a Gend-

Again. political bigotry leuds its subjects,

)t only fj disregard sound political princi-
ples, but to the actual renunciation of, and
apoatacj- from thrfm. Ah thu greatest ro-
Ugious bigots nro often the greatest infidels.
' a th« history of the Catholic and Protest-

■t Jesoils will amply show) so .tho loudest
and fiercest profoasora of "loyalty to theip
lountry are apt lo be at heart Iho moat
■ disloyal." This ia always so, when (an-
otics hud that sound poiitic.il priociples
constitute a barrier against the auccoss of
their BOhomes If the political enemies of
popery hnd that constitutional freedom of
reUgion. of thought and of conscience is an
obstoolB to their sncoesa.they renoonco the.

lund American dootrinea on those sub-
jects, and would have every man's mind and
conscience hampered and confined within
the limita required for the aocceas of their
great scheme. If the sovereignty und tho
rights of the Slates stand in the way of
their paeudo phiipntbropic project of eman-
cipation, Ibey denounce the doctrine of tbo
sovereignly und rights of thu Stalea, and
advocate cousolidaiion. Such is alirays
natural tendency of political bigotry
a perennial fountain of political herOBT
andapoataoy.

Again, political bigotry is tho parent of'
poliUoul prosoiiption. When fanaticism
obtains possession of the treasury and pa>
tronage of the Government, it considora

one but Its own followers and devotOBs

rortby of place or power. The members
of other parties are regarded as foreigners
and enemies; and a section of the country
where few of its own parly ore found, is
regarded and Ueated as a foreign and hos-
tile country. The fanatical party ia quar-
tered upon (he treasury; and the chanoos
are, that tbe diaponaation and consumption
of palronago will be, marked by wholesahi
corruption and ostravngance. There is no
degreii of corruption and venality for whioh
politioul bigotry, devoted to the ends of
fanalioisni. cannot find an apology and a
juatificatiun.

Finnally, political bigotry ia always a
persecutor. In its view, there is no greater
crime than dissent from iU politioal creed
or eobemes. Aa religious bigotry kindles
the fires which consume the martyr, eo po-
litical bigotry fills the bastilo with its in-
mates, and supplies the guiUolino with its
victims. Tho goaranlees of liberty con-
tained in the conatitulional bill of rights,
are nothing to it; tho freedom of speech
and of the press are nothing; the privUege
of the writ of habeas corpui. and the right
of trial by jury are nothing; the consumma-
lion of its fanatical aoheme is all in all. Tbo
tongue, tbe pen. the press, the person which
aro cot Hubservient to this, must bo silenced
or restrained. The sanctity of tho oud makes
holy all tho means. "Tho safety of the
people is tbe supremo law." Thua a glori-
ous opportunity ia afloided to wreak private
vengeance, or jealousy, or envy, upon tho
objects of those base und malignant pas-
laiou.^. Private passion blonds itself easily
Lturally with political bigotry and fao-

A full illustration of the grand ootlinei
ot ourBubjoot is furnished in tbe person of
tho Hon. Haluu.v p. Chase, Seorntary of
tho Treasury. His mind hna long been
thoroughly porvcrtcd by the idea and tbe
project of "thodenatloualizatiou of slavery,"
there must bo u oomploto divorce of tho
Federal Constitution from ^Urieaii slavery.
This is tho speolfic type of his f.iMtJciBm.
That of the Secretary of State ukes the
form of a supposed "irrepressible conflict"
1 the Bomo subject, and that of Iho Presi-
■nt eipressoa itself in the proposition thst
the Union cannot eilst half froo aud half
slave," while Iho hobby of tho Secretary of
thu Treasury is "tho donntionali^alion of
slavery." This idea oversliadowj all tha
great maxims aad principles upon which our
civil inttitutions are grounded, and all tbeje
must boalurredover or swept away because
they hinder the successful career of his pft
scheme. In tho argument coul«inod inliJa

At the beginning of the pre.ienl war each
nnd every person who did not aubaeribe to
all acts of the Administration, whether in
ROtordance with, or indirect violation of, tie
ConetitntJOD, was denonuced os a troitur.—
When political iasnea were agitated before
Uie people, and it became apparent to every
observer that the Itepublican party had
Pttlped down tbe ultra aljolition doctrine of
ieic brethreu (Wendell rhillips and Fred
DonglassJ then treason (as defined by one
of their leading men) consif\ed in intima-
ting that the Republican party was an abo-
liUoniwd party. On election day voting
the Democratio ticket was the very quint-
casence.the overtact, of treason itself ; but
election rctnms showing Democratio voters
to beaameroufl Ibey abandoned this idea of
tjeaaon, probably f.^oring that the large nnd
rapidly ini;rpasing number ui traitora would
oast B sbade of respectability about the
crime of treason. Next we wero informed
that a refusaJ to troffic in Governmeut shin-
plasters was undoubledly treason. And
now tbe mui who has the breren impudence
to take ft Democratic paper, and wbo ia in
favor of Iho Union as it was and the Con-
stitution OS it is. is denounced us the dark-
est traitor in all King Abraham's domain.
These aro some of tbe ideas of treason en-
tertained and eipresaed by (he bright lights
of the Republican party, wbo style them-
eeWes good loyal citiviens. Loyal lo wUat1
To the Cou6lilution 7 Their parly re pre -

(which means a negro equality Union in
which a niffge'' will be a tbado belter thana

i4et at defiance tho laws of Cotigiees? Scorn

She should hung her head in shame bo long

she has voleil, and thu9 indicated her con-

pended. Bui there ii a writ that no tyrant

self-d'fente—the first law nf nature.

And is it possible that the great State ol
Ohio has forgot her manhood, nnd ia she
unable, or, u-one, unicilling. to protect her
peraeculed oitireni? When we see nil the

Wo have for the past few weeks been giv-
ing these military assessments a full venti-
lation. On the 25th inst, a telegraph from
Washington says ;

" TftePrBiideet has slopped the anemment on
di«lujalien lu Minaouri. urJered by SuboSeld, in
view of tba recoNt mnnife»UliuD of wllliuHue'" el
tbe people to adept the emnucipalioo puhcy."

We stated in our paper lost week that W(
had strong reasons to believe that these as-
aessmeuts wero a part of the political
scheme on foot to seize the power of the
Slate by the extermination of all those
were unwilling tu succumb to abolitioi
We did not speak at random. To
Democrat in Missouri, or in any of the
Border States, is to be a disloyalist-
the same movement was on foot in Ohio and
tbo North, but our elentions turned that
scheme out of its channel— or iu railroad
parlance, " ran it off the track " and eeve
ly injured its running gear.

In the above telegram ne have Ibe sdu
sion that Ibe rescinding of this infamous
der Is placed on the ovldenoe " manifeXcd,
of a tcilhnf'ncsj of the people to adopt ihi
emancipation p.licy." A purely
measure then, it is admitted, to c
political opinions of the people, favorably
to the " emunoipation policy."

Why, Iberefore. did tbo Government not

Sitcccli ol Ulr. Coxi

We pcint in full this very intereatinc
speech— eloquent nnd now In some of its
duvi'lopment;— hut wo should have liked it
much better did it call parties by their right
names. Why tbia omission? Parties ate
divided into Democrals nnd AbolilionisCs.
Notbing eUe. To call ihe Democrats Con-
itrvaticu, and the AbolilionifiU Jiadicali. is
A misuse of terms, which no man should
make, and, for one, wo shall not submit to it.
".Call things by their right names." is an
old but trite saying, which means much.
Conservatives nnd Radicula mean nothiug
intbo present division of parlies, and will
mean much less a year hence. We did not
like Mr. Co.x's vote on the S'GI.OOO.DOO
(the amount actually appropriated) negro
bill, and the attempt to change party names
in this speech doea not meet our approba-
lion. It is no time now to swap horses.

Dr. Olds,

Will be escorted by a procession on noit
Monday from his homo to iho Uapilol, to
take his jcat in the Legislature. The pro-
oeaaion will leave Lancaster about 8 o'clock

met by a largo procession from this Cuunl

The people, by this movement, will show

If there is one orime. mere than another,

of the passage— indeed, it is not susceptible

B passage, in the good old book, when, in

certainly a very weak ooe — he baa been a
pipe in the bauds of abolition demagogues,
to play what tune they pleaaed — not, indeed
always consenting at the first application,
but putting off tho appUaant. so softly, as
always to enoour.age hope — like Caesar,
when thrice offered tbe crown by Mark An-
thony, every time he putit by, "gentler than
tbe other." So Mr. Lincoln, believing, in
March. 18GI, that he had " no lawful right "
to interfere with slavory, on tho 22d of Sep-
tember, 1802, came to believe himself om-
nipotent on that auhjeot— fanatiaism having
wrought upon him uniil the man, cntiro,
aurrendered et diacreliun.

I do not cite this os an evidence of cor-
ruption; but it is certainly one of weak-
ness. Only a few days before issuing hia
emancipation proolamntiou, bo told tbe^o-
liiieal prieiChood of Chicago, that such a
proclamation would be like the Pope's bull
against Ihe comet ! And yet, in the abort
space, I believe, of ten days, the required
proclamation was launohed into the world;
with en icoonsiatenoy unparalleled in the
annals of our Country; and immediately
followed by tho utrocioua declaration of mar-
tial law and suspension of the habtai corpus
without uny just oauae or legal pieleuee tor
eitbBr- for nobody protends there was either
war or iuaurccclion iu Ihe Northern Statea.
where alono, these meaauroj were intended
to operate; or any impediments, whatever,
to I be freeat operation of tho courts of law,
cicept such as wore thrown in their way by
tho Administration itself- invoking the ab-
3\irdity of government isauiug those proola-
matioua lo proteot itself against its c
acta! But tho real object ot tbisconapi
cy against our liberties, lios deeper. T
seorel design ""» *" Inauguratsa " reign of
terror." In abolition districts thta wn
frankly aduiittcd, and justified by the Ji
auilicol argumeut, that the ond justifies tbe
moans— that terror was necessary to pre-
vent oppoailion lo the government— falsrly
confounding tha administration with the
govornmonl, and forgetting that, in this
coantry the people aro sovereign- involving
the stupid absurdity, that tho people mu»t
bo terrorized to prevent the people from in-
juring ihemselvas. A further design of
tueao terror pfBclaiiialiont, undoubtedly was
to act on tbt elections, then near at hand, iu
all the great States of iho North- and to
further tuis treaaonablo deaign, many of our
must illustrious citizens were seized by the
corrupt and illegal authority of Provost
Marahals— corrupt because illegal— no au-
inorliy under heaven oilatlne for their ap-
poiuimeni ; some imprisonea in sinks of
tilth within the State- somo rushed out of
tho State and boyond its jurisdiction, where,
to-day, the prison doors remain oloaed upon
them— wlthuul known charge of orime or
nbility to obtain a trial or even examination.
It is no wonder the euTbora of these crlmos

The e^QlicD reloting to Secession is as
follows :

" No Slate shall seoedo without Ibe con
it of the Legisluiure of tho Stales of tbi

and given In each section ulco the power to
protect itself inside of the Uuion from ag-
ereesion. I propose next to limit and to
regulate tho alleged right of aecessioD. since
this, from a dormant abatraction, has now
heeome a practical question of tremendous
import. As long, sir. as secesaiuo remsin-
ed an untried and only menaced ejperiment,
that confidence, without which no Govorn-
racnt can bo stable or efficient, was not
shaken, because it was believed that actual
aeoession would never he tried ; or if tried,
that it muat speedily and inglorioualy fail.
Tho popular faith, cheriahod for years, has
been that tho Union could not be dissolved.
To that faith the Itepublicao party was In-
debted for its success in the lato election i
nud wo who predicted its dissolution woro
smitteD upon the cheek and condemned lo
feed upon bread of uflliotion and water of
aQliotlon, like the prophet whom Ahab
hated. But partial diasolulion has already
ooourred. Secession bus been tried and
has proved a speedy and terrible succeaa.
The p'raolioubility of doing It and tho way
to doit, have both been established. Sir,
tho experiment inoy readily be repeated.
It will be repeated. And Is it not madness
and folly, then, to cull back, hy adjustment,
the Stales which have seceded, or to hold
back tbe Slates which ore threatening to se-
cede. \pilhout providing some safeguard
against the reneical oflhi) most simple and
ditaslTous experiment ? Can foreign na-
tions have any oooGdenco hereafter in the
stability of a Government which may ao
readily, speedily and quietly he diaaolved F
Can wo have any confidence among our-
aelvea 7

I add nowaneitraol from Ihe same speech
(of Pebruory 20, 1601). explainiiiK the gen-
■ — ' ibjects of the propoaed amendments :

lorn, sir, upon tho soil of the United

States, attached to my country from earliest

boyhood; loving and rovering her. with

some part at least, with tho spirit of Greek

and Roman patriotism; between these two

alternalivoa, with ull my mind, with all my

heart, with all my strength of b"dy and of

lul, living or dying, at home or in eiilo. I

11 for the Union which made it what it is ;

id therefore I ani also for such terms of

peace and adjustment as will maintain Ihat

391

This, thei

9 the

ilion whiob to. day I propose tit disou-,.
Uv>w shall tbe Uoion of these States be
restored and preaerved?

"Devoted as I am to tho Union, I have
yet no eulogies to pronounce upon it to-diiy.
It needs nono. Its highest eulogy is tbe
history of this country for tbe past seventy
years. The triumphs of war and the arts of
ace, science, civilization, weullh, pO|>ula-
n, commerce, trade, monufacturoa, lilnra-
re, education, justice, tranquility, security
life, lo person, to property, material hap-
, JBS9, common defense, national renown —
all that is implied iu Ihe h1ea»ings of liberty,
loro, have been its fruits from
the beginning lo this hour. These have en-
ahrined it in tho hoorls of tho people, aud,
before God, 1 believe they will restore and
Aud to-day they demand of uj,
tbeir einbossadors and representatives, to
tell ihem bow this great work is to be ac-
complished."

And yet further, in a card to the Enouir-
, dated February 14. 1861, I said :
"My proposition lotked solely to the
restoration and maintenanoe of the Union,
by suggesting a mode of voting in
the United Stales Senate and the Electoral
Colleges, hy which the causes which have
led to our present troubles, may in the fu-
ture be guarded ngaiust without aeoession
-md disunion; and also the agitation of the
lavpry cjueslioo as an element in our Na-
ionnl politics, he forever hereafter arrested.
My object— the sole motive by which I have
been guided from the beginning of this mos '
fatal revolution— is to maintain the Union,
id not destroy it."

Such was tho proposition nbloh I sub
itted just previous to the inauguration ij
is most unnatural aod ruinous civil war
id at a lime when every patriot in the lani
seeking diligently and aorrowtully fi

e means or other by n

tthft

edo belongs,
ower to adjust wlih seoedliig Stales all
ijuealions orislng by reason of thuir seccs-
lion; but Iho terms of adjustment shall be
lubmitltd to the Congress fur their approval
>L'riire Ihe same shallbe valid."
And this is Iho paragraph uf tho speech

torrible scourge of nutiiu

ported hy talegropb at first, it has been th
subject of most peraistiiit and maliolou
uiiarepreaeutation ever since. 1 am not vai
enoogh to expect to silence interested falsi

I do desire that Ibey who would desi.

Tho Ne(;ro was token from Lis nalive

nnfolded his native powers, both physical

head of all his kindred and kind, not only

whatever may bo hia proclivities, will now
dare to institute a comparison, in any way,
(nniess it be in brutality) of the nt^groesof
Congo wiUi the slaves of Americu. Why,
then, has philanthropy been so blind to her
own objoots, as to denonnce a system which
bos every important evidence of philan-
tliropy tor its support 7

Evils, while man is an imperfect being,
will, of necessity, eiiat io all social sys-
tems ; all objects coDCct be attained. But
it is the general rather than the partial evils
which are to be avoided; and the general
rather than the politioal good which the
philosopher mast bold constantly in view.
in the constracticD of civil society. The
greatest good to the greatest number ia the
object TCtdoh be seeks to attain. Tbis can
be done only by moulding not only mou,
bat whole races of men, where more than
one TQCO eiists, into relations and condi-
tions aoited to their respective notures and
capacities, and by holding tho greatest by
natnre, the greatest by law. This the
Southern system has dono to a greater per-
fection than any other aystem now upon the
world. Why, then, sball it be dietnrbed.
and onr national lunatic suffered to proceed
in hia work of destcuotion ?

Peifeotion is no where to bo found ; con-
Bei^nently, Southern society, lik*' all other
societies, has its vices, but wberoin are they
mora grievoue than in Northern localities ?
The great charge made against the Southern
infltitntion — in fact, the one in which most,
if not all others, culminate, ia that tho rela-
tion of master and slave leads to immorality,
and Ibat, as a consequence, masters are
known to sell their own ofTapring. Thia to
some extent may be true, but is, wo have no
doubt, greatly mugnihed by Northern im-
aginations. But asaoming that no eiag-
gerations aro made, and that al! is true to
the fall extent of all accusations, wherein
then does Southern society lose in compari-
son with that of Northern oommtmities ?
Are not mixed bloods aluo begotten in the
Northern States ? and ore not men as much
prone to excesses in one as in the other lo-
cality? TheEiiquoBtionsshouldbt
— and onswereQ in such u way aa to shield
Northern characlor before the same immo
rolity is made an objection to Soutbem in
flUtations. Unt men cry slop tbief. who
they seo a policy in diverting populor al
tention.

Some masters may have children by tbei
stave women. But are Ihey more culpable
Ihan Northern libertines, or are such female
■laves worse conditioned than tbe kept
mistropsea of Northern cities ! Such slavei
with their children ore provided for, wbili
Northern illegitimates ore often left without
SBPport. A picture is even now rising up
before na from which attention should
be tamed, and in regard to which wo may
nak: who will provide for, clothe, sholler
and hold from slarvation the yellow crop of
bumauity that is now springing into being
in the tracks of our armiea, as they pass over
Southern cities and plantations ? The crop
is coming ; tho ooontry knows it ; end yet
the sanclimonioui), fault finding anil money
worshipping Puritou, who grunts and groans
ovi'r negro bondage, shuts his eyes as the
piotaro approaohes — prays for vengeance
to bo showered, thick and burning, on the
heads of Southern proprietors, but never
drops a tear, nor oven deigns tu ask a bless-
ing for thia, tbo first i-atden crop of Aboh-
tion loyalty. How bappy are the self
right«ouB who can make their own wants
their standard of morality f

Some Southern fathers may sell their
children, for thero are monsters everywhere.
But grievous as this offense may be, slil)
eiporience is u wild deludor, if, after all, tbe
tather is not, of all other men, the most
fuitable person to be catrastod with tho
care of his own begotten. Tbo laws of our
country not only so regard ^ini, but, in be-
half of his paternal nature, [evurses her ac-
tion, from commanding the perlormnuce of
duties, to roatraiuing tho impulse with
which he flies to his ohildrens' sapport.
Men may be regardful of other mens' chil-
dren, but he whoasxnmes to he more affec-
tionate, intoresled and watohful, than tho
father (unless the father be worthless) will,
on close eiaminallon, in ninety-nioo oasee
out of a hundred, be found to huvo some

Butthiarnlo. Instead of benefitting Northern
'OpatatiOQ, operates against it, for as the
iouthorn Stales aro more rural than the
Nortbem ones, they aro nnomalieti in tho
world's history, if they oro not proporlion-
.lly more moral. Tho vory nature of wealth,
is it eiists under those respective systems,
makes this distinction inevilablo in their so-
■9. The mon whose fortono consists
'gro slaves, will, for bis own inter.-at.
ell as for bis own oJmfort, make his,
I on a plantation, for it is thorn only,
that hie slaves con be madu profitabl,
be restrained from vices. A(
Southern society is forced t
'ffecta ore not so, either under our Northern
ir under the European system, but are the
(ontroiy, wealth has an opposite inllnenoe.
Under these systems, men of fortunes are
usually mon of money. They count by
dolloTH, and not by negroes— contemplate
their wealth in its restricted characlor, and
to eojiy it, or increase it, congregate in
icieties. As a coosequenco, great
'hich have been very juetly oharac-
as great sores, are tbe growth of
Northern and not of Southern, slave holding,
inatitulions. In those targe cities vices as
well OS fortunea accumolote. But in dis-
cussing the above noticed point, which Ab-
olition orators ore constantly toroing upon
may hero rule our observaLions to
that single point. Let ua then notice

ell kn<

n facts.

In Cincinnati alone,

asoertoiued that
hundred lewd women i

population. In New York the number of
the fame class of persons was found to be
about twelve thouaaud. All over the coun-
try the cities were found to present

our Southern States, but unfolds a gov

fifty, want and oppression drivi' women l<

vices, and in doing so, will

There had for some years been n rapid
crease of convictions. But at [he c<
mencement of tho war, every peait«ntisry
in the Northern States, as for as we are in-
formed, was crowded from its cellar to iti
garret, with convicted felons, and most ul
Uie States enlarging, or preparing to eo'
large their prison aocommodatione.

In this condition stood our Northern so-
iety, when it grew rebtless and faotioua—
■hen it rosclved itself into a pohtical sec
on— when it resisted Federal officers in th(
execution of federal laws — when men panted
or blood — when the Chicago Convention,
esolved that tbe condition of territories
vaa not such as the Supreme Federal Court
bad adjudicated them to be — when that cor
vention Dominated its candidate with a bowi
knife, eight feet long, banging, (as a banter

chivalry,) ovor its speaki

hood — when a semi ■military organizatioi

Wide Awakes," mustered in our street

when Republican poUtioians defeated tbe

objects of the Peace. Convention, and when

Kepublicaa Congress, lost to every sec
of honor and honesty, eitingaisbed tho U
hope of peaceful solution, by forcing itself
between the people and the polls, and deny-
ing to tho citizen the right to vote on ques-
tions, the most important of ouy that had
ever before interested bim or bis govemmen!
That Congress may resolve that this wu
eiists by means of Soutbem action, may
cover itsrecords with anbtushing falsehoods,
may revel in its own infamy and imposture,
but it never can eradicate these imperishable
facts from the memorioB of an outraged peo-
ple, whom, to preserve itsown party suprem-
acy, it wantonly drove into civil war.

eral attempts succeeded in obtaining inter-
views with Gov. Gamble, General Curlia and

looking at tho case in all its baorings doubt-

Now, how ridioalouB the idea that a ne-
groe's oath should be received at all, aud
Lch more ridiouous and absurd that
lid be believed when received, can
only be fully understood by those who know
tbe negro character fully : and particularly
Ie proceeding iu this cose ridicu-
I it is oonaidered that tho ooth or
affidavit of a negro twelve years old, is ta-
coQolusive evidence of the disloyal-
ty of her owner, bis own evidence not being
icepled in rebuttal.

Such ia law, auch is justice now, in once
free Missouri. Men ore imprisoned by hun-

that thoro worn n number who would have

Samuel MBDAKir-Sir: Your paper ap-
pears to he gaining favor with tho Demo-
crats wherever it is known, on account of
tho bold stand you took at the commoace-
of tbe war. and of tho mecoilesa man-
I which you eipose tho dishonesty and
the utrociouH aims of tho Bepublican party.
Tj such papers as The Crisis. Dubwp.e
lleraldaai Dayton Empire, and a few oth-
ers, (I am sorry thoir number is not greater,)
tho Democrnoy ought lo give tho most lih-
' support, because to them, and to auoh
OS Mr. Vallandigham, Mr. Bright ond
Mr. Vourb..ps, we owo it that tho Demo-
party was not overwhelmed io (be
tonipnst of madness tbat swept over the
land, but has achieved Buch a signal triumph
in the late election. If those distinguiahod
aon and tbo.so papers had, in the commence-
nient of the contest between war and anti-
war, between Federal uaorpation and Stute
rights, between freedom and tyranny, imi-
tated the folly and cowardice of those weak
ftnpod leaders and editors who joined in tho
abolition cry of war, war, aud bowled trai.
lor in tho ear of every Democrat who re-
fused to join with them, our party would
probably have been buried so deep tbat the
hand of resurreolioa could never reach it,
or ot least our glorious triumph would have
been postponed mach longer.

I intend to use what eflorts I can tn oir-
culale your paper hero. Let the Demo-
crats do so everywhere, and it wUI infusq a'
levoo into tho minds of the people that will

Wo had hoard a groat numlwr reports
of tho demoralized condition of our army at

groat measure owing to tho uses hd had put
. to in running off negroes and aiding tbe
otton speculators, in which speculations ho
as charged with being a large participant.
Wo hoped that after Gen. Cuhti.i had been
ordered to St. Louis a hotter state nf affairs
light prevail, but from tho foUowing letter,
written by a gallant soldier diagusled with
ilrouH conduct of hia comrades in
lere does not seem to he aoy itn-
provomeot. We read those horrible details
ilh utter ahame and alarm for our future.
That our Northern people should stand be-
fore tbe world, and pass down to all time in
history, with auoh a record, is a sad refleo-
Thia war is carried on by ptioata and
Abolition Saints — their record is what might
be eipoctod, for it ia tho record the bloody
priesthood have made before ; yet it is no
!Bs a disgrace lo ua all.

We have often wondered whether our ou-
borities nt Washington knew, or reflected
pen, tho fact that an army gipeii tomaraud-
ng and other dishonorable acta, thereby be-
omes wholly inefficient tij meet a brave,
iaciplined fo'i. If we have no character to
DBo, we have au army to lose, and its loss
■utsusat the mercy of tho enemy. Yet witb
all these facts pnblioly known we see no ef-
forts taken by those in authority lo correct
them. It ia. n> doubt, true that the con-
duct of tbo army ut Helena, hero described,
docs not fit a very large portion of our ar-
my. yet tbe utmost care abould be taken to
oid the possibility in any part of it. It
horrible- too much so to talk about. It
ivea a deep and lasting disgrace and bOr
illation upon the whole country.

*"■ 1 proclamabon against Butler and bis asao-
comei up to tbo full measure of public ex-
pectabnn. Tbe delitwratjons with which tbe
- ad OS ions of the Execnlive have been arrived

gives additiunal solemnity and dignity to his

operations of the Alabama from pa/asngora of
tbe Ariel, and al^o from English and Spanish
sources. It appears by tbe English accounlBtbat
the uuderwritera in Liverpool bad been advised
of Ifac intention of Semmes lo capture tbo Cali-
fornia steamers.

Among the incidents ol the late capture of the
Ariel by tho Alabama are tbe following :

Aa the passengers ot Ibo Ariel were sealed nt
tbeir diuner on Sunday, Daconber 7, Captain
Jones was infonnod that a war steamer waa
bearing down upon them, and. allbongh ho mado
bghtof tbe fact, atill be left Ihe dinner table and
OEcended to tbe deck. The war vessel was do.
scried obout lour miles off, sailiog under Ihe Stars
and Stripes ; but Coplnin Jones aoon discovered
that the liuild and riggJDg were English, and. aaa-
pecting miacbief, ordered the Ariel to be put
under a full head of ateatD. intending, if possible,
lo leave tbo auapicinus erall fur bahini But hia
eObrla weteunavading; for. ebortJy after, n blank
Lrtridge wan fired, closely followed by two sheLlB,
le ol which, a common round shell, cot a fear-
1 piece from oat of tbo foremast. Tbe other
iell,wbich fortunately passed over lie ■
the paBaengore were informed, was a steel pointed
"10 bundred-pound projectile, ao conalructod as
cBUBo a dealmctive explosion immediately nheo
atrihea any object. Had this shell burst over
' against tho Ariel, there is no knowing whet
ss of life might bave been coated to the unof-
fending non-comb a ttanta on board.

The marinea, who were one bandred and forty
itroog, under Major Garland, were ordered oo
deck to reaiat anyiitlempt to board tbe Ariel by
pursoiDg vessel: but when the
churacler of the craft vMis fully as ce named, it
— considered entirely useless to make any re-
nce, and tbe marinsa were ordered below.
Captain Jones, wh'ae bravery is well known, in
anted that bis Dag ahould nut be lowered under
ay circumat-uices, but thai be would figbt It
ut. Tho marinea. however, being diaafmed. be
ad tu give way. very reluctantly, and the Ariel
as surrendered to tbe Alabama At this time
10 Arsel was going nboni eiyht and u half knots,
ad the Alabama eleven knots, under only eleven
pounds of sleam.

A boat was tbeu sent from tbe Alabama, man-
,ed by twelve well armed moo, under tbo chnrge
'f a Soulbern officer named L>>w. who ranked as
, Lieutenant in the rebel navy. As she apprnach-
d tbe Ariel the piuwengera began to show evi-
dent signs of uueasiuess, aa il they feared tbat a
demand would bo made upbo Ibem fur tbtir
-nioneyor their livB»,"or perbapa both. Tbe
(omeu were already frightened, and those who
bad any valuable personal property began lo cun-
' ' rapidly as poitible. LiBulenBut Low,
when bo boarded tho Anel.Bto led that the pasBon-
seagets would be allowed to proceed unharmed,
irivnle property nbuuld be respeoted.
inly quieled a few of them, ultbougb

jot Gumo Bkeplica. Captain Jooea

was neil ordered to go aboard Ihe Alabama, and
on bis return to tbe Ariel he slated that tht
Alabama deserved all her previous reputation foi
speed. Sbo can ateiuu fourlveu knots with sev.
eateen pounds ol steam, and is allowed tu carry
t«eoty-hte pounila ol Hieam, .She bas two
ginea of fifty two iacb cylinder and aesentceu i
strobe, and in in all reapccls n perfect model of
beauty Her armament is, he saya, a one bun
dred-ponnder rifle, and one all tj -eight- pound tii

Keotgun, besides til medium Ihirty-twD-poundors
e can fight seven guua a aide, having arrange
mants (or transferring two of tbe breudaidi) guoi
Iron aide to tide with great rBpidity. Caplaic
Jones further says that tbe Alaliamu bos u Eut
crew, and Iliat they ate well discipbned ; tbal
Ihe ship IB in fiao order, nnd tbat tho deck is ar-
ranged for two additional pitol-guns, wbjcb be
was in formed were one hundred-pounder rifles,
and In the Alabama's bold, ready lo be mounted
ahould tbey bo required. He saya tbat ■■Oli
Beeswax" Iruated him remarkably well, as wel
as if be bad been a viaitor. Ho wua not confined
had tbe privilege of tbe deck, and messed in thi
wardroom. The list of officers of tbe Alabaoii
\i torrecl as oefore publiibed in Ibe Herald.

Coploin Jones saya ite only ahip aemuiBo fear
IS tbe VanderbilL Hi made many inquiries re
garding ber speed and armament, butobumed ni
informution whatever. Ho Inugba at all other
ihipa wo bavo, and rematliod that "be cared aotb-
ing lor the San Jaciulo ; that ho weot to sea by
her in Martiuiijue, and paid no attention to her.
What ho cannot whip bo ain run away from."

Lieulenaut Low having made inquired of Cap-
tain Seoimea about what he was lo do with tbo
United States oflicerB and men on bodrd the Ariel,
on hiB reluin paroled them tbat they were not
to serve tbe Uniled States govemmeDl in auy
oapscily, oc at any place, during Ibe present war,
and prohibited them Irum perfunaiog oven garri-
son duty at tbo forts of California, to nbicb place

more, making a total of S-.iG0,Oiin, tbe whole to bo
paid to Ibe rebel autboritie) wilbin thirty day*
alter the establishment of the independence of tbe
Confedernie Stales.

Lieutenant I^w, having dettroyvdall Ibe sailri
i| the Ariel, ordered ber to beep compaoy witb
the Alabama, aud both iblps sleamed towards
Jamai<;a. At night be again viiitea Ibe Ariel,
and took nway with him one of ber steam valves.
so as lo temporarily duable th» engine. Captoio
Jones was informed by Captain Bemmea that bis

Eistengcrs would be landed at a poiat on Sl
omingo, wbicb bus only a lew bills and is at a
great dulaoce from snppliee. To Ibis Captain
Jones earnestly re monaira ted, staling that eight
hundred and fifty nereocs, a thirdof them women
aud children could find nothing to live on there.
Hetbenaaid be would land tbem in Jamacia, for
he was determined to bum tbo ahip in revenge
for Vondcrbilt having given one of the fiueit
ateamera ID tbe world to the government to mn
him dnwn. IVhile the Arel waa deprived ol her
'ejm valve, being without «ail«, ebo could do
ithing but drill about, and certainly could not
escape- Tbereloro the Alabama could go oil in
search ot other victima, Oo the 9lh Lnst, at nine
o'clock P. «.. tbo vessela arrived off Point Mor

Alabama gave chose and bourded a vessel,
from wbieb eomo informnlion wasreceived wbicb
induced Captain Semmea to again change hii
niind, and be pormilted tho Ariel la resume ber
oyage. Tbo reason given was tbat this vessel
bad reported yelln* fever ragiog in Kingston, and
ho would not subject tbo passengera to its ravager,
but tho passengeni were informed that no yellow
fever had prevailed there for some time. The

*'>uldl)e proud to ho culled upon by suoh
^ assembly to spcaK on such a ihemu- —
''Mk over the lung truck of the history of

30e, which has bi-en a contiuual
civil liberty on tbe onosldB. ond
id tyranny on the other, and yi
will find little lo gladden in the past or hoi
for in the future. But in America for po
enty years, and until within the laat Iv
jenrs, we flattered ourt^elvea that wa hi
luid tbe foundnlion of civil liberty bo dee
built the bulwarks so strong and so forliGed
it with bnRlioQB and outworks, that no pow-
er cftuld shake it from us. How fatally,
bow fenrfully, have wo awakened from Ihiil
revel of bliss, that dream of happiness, in
the last two years. Look at tbo pictures,
now, and then. What is tbe import of that
eipression, civil liberty? Long ngo none
were able to givo It a deSnitiou, invulnern
bio to the assaults of sophistry; but tbe
aera of the Conslirution determined to
down certain speeifio rights constituting
I liberty, and preaoribed that they should
be violated. Among these were freedom
onsciencp, fri'edom of religion, freedom
apeeob, freedom of tho press— there
lid be no arbitrary arrests, no treasona-
ble aeiBures, no ottjiindor, no conSscation.
no constructive trroioti — no treason excep
in levying war. So jealous were tbo pto
pie that ibey adopted amendments to Ibi
Uonalitulion — all guarautiosof civil liberty
— the rifihia of freedom of property — that tbo
writ of nabeai cotjius should not be suspt
dcd accept in time of war, and then only by
legislative enactment, etc- The writ of h,
beat corpus originated in England, and wi
intended to prevent arbiJrary urrest-t by the
King ; it was to pniteot tbe ciiijeu from tho
tyranny of tbe bouse of Stuart. Talk of
ibo King or the President suapending tbit
writ— you might as well talk of tbe Preti.
denfa power to suspend tbe State Cunsiilu-
tion. Gov. Tod's message fquinls as il he
bad the power to do that. Uj.ot

nothing among uU the eins and crimes of
'he adminislrution and tbo aboliiion party,

■iolatioBS of civil liberty. Has the admin
stration been strengthened by kidnap-
ping Dr. Oldt,? Was it necessary to sus-
3 Cunalitntion lo quiet poor Koes,
it from a prison to a loiiatio asylum?
ere a necesiity for stealing away
poor Dennis Hickey ! Instead of being
stronger they were weakened by thai su-
le fully and iniquity. It was asiugular
that none but Democrats were arrest-

But if a poor Democrat who bad read the
Constitution and thought be badaunie rights
it, opened bis moutbi be was drugged
from his lamily, imprisoned and turnoii out
in half a jeur, wtibout trial, without know-
ing lor what be was arrested. Far from be-
ing a necessity, it was au injury aud weak
nesa lo the govornment — they louud it so at
the October elections, and suddeuly disouv-
ered tbcro was no necessity for sued arrests;

they wore glad to leave the viotims go

Like Ibe felluiv who had a wolf by tbe ears,
thoy cried, "for God sake, come and help uiu
let this wo|F go." Lincoln tuld tbe Chicago
preachers that it might bo that he bad puw

If so. tvbbt despotism was mure complole ?
if he can do anything ueoeesary lo pat:
down — and ho is to be the juOge ot tbi

that the claim is cot founded in justice, or
show its iucoQsistenoy with tbe Constitution.
He Qouid scarcely believe his senses when
he read Lincoln's proclamation suspending
civil law and superceding It with military
commissioners, I could scarcely believe
any man would dare utter suob sentiments.
let regretted until then that I had not
elected Govurnorof Ohio, There would
have been u man with book bono enough to
ssue a counter proclamation, telling the
Vdministratiun tbat although Ohio was loyal
a tbe government, tbe Cooslitutlon ond the
lid flag, her people bad rights, and would
lot tamely submit to have thoin violated,
luiraged and destroyed. (Aeplauae.) I
hould have issued tbat proclamation before
Dr. Olds here was kidnapped. Under thai
doctrine any petty officer can afrest any
oitisen, without an occusatiun, for any of-
fence, and try bim by a military court, an
laponsiblo and despoiio tribunal. He
illuded lo the indirect Irlal of MoClellaD at
Harpers Ferry. Uoe Don Piatt and joung
■• 11— the mere touls of Chase— were called
Iry. convict and supercede suob a veteran
McClellan. This was a specimen of
luilitnry trials. In bis view of (be motives
for iesuing such proolamatious, they were
uot designed or intended, to reconstruct thi

Uonvpenny in responding lo this
toast, briefly, alluded to the perfeotinn of
the system devised by the framors of the
Constitution, end directed allention to
subject as being one worthy of profoi
study.

Hon. W. J. Fiugg responded lo this toast
an eloquent war speech, maintaining tbi
bad the Democracy been in power when tb„.
war commenced, they wouli have fought it
to a successful termination in six mouths
Those idiotio Abolitionists bad not sense
enough to do anything right ; they had nul
tbe sense of apes. They began wrong, nnd
have been going wrong all the time. They
could believe nothing, understand nothing.
They first underrated the magnitude of the
rebellion, and overrated tho ability of the
North. The fools thought a crowd of Wide
Awokes with oil skin capes and greasy
lumps would scare tbo Coufedernlea to
death. Ho delivered a scathing review of
tho Administration aud its cunduet of tbe
war. Lincoln jiikod, tbe Cabiust quarreled
and the best Generals were thwarted in
their best plans. Lincoln's jokes reminded

which miist inevitably epring up, if Congresa

certainly meant to shut tho door forever
against nit sectional attempts to make the
United States Government tho mere instru-
ment for doing, by a combination of States,
ageinat other States, precisely what

tbeir unfair distribution are twin sis tors ;
they wero bom, and have their being, to-
gether, and il we will but run over in our
minds the embittered feelings engendered
by unfair tarifTs, where it was bold to prove
exactly tbeir unfair sectional bearing, and
we may imagine how our Union will look

Do not let us mistake oniaelvea: the ques-

most ileteBtable of all beings in a Stale, that
financial roue, who, unlimited ia bia taxing

Another di£culty, in such taxation, lies in
tho fac' that It will multiply conCUcts with
Stato authority. Our Stato Constitution,

that no licenBO shall ever be granted for the

lao Iho inquiry will ot once oriao in every
mind, what io c federal lax on whiakey in
Ohio, exported to other States, but an ex~
port duty under the guise of an oxoise tax!
'' does it moks it less an oxport tax, bo-
as it taxes the little wiakoy we consuma

United States werf lo levy a dhroot excise
bogu, is any man ao blind as not to
,t snch a tax would In effect be an
export tax in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
Kentucky at least ! Now let any man fol-
low tho reoNOaing for prohibiting Congress
' om levying an export tax or duty, and ha
ill at once bo led to perceive, that it ap~
plies to every provision of the tax law,
which singles out, arbitrarily, any product
of tbo several .States. More than that, it
must bring hie mind unavoidably tu tho con-
viction, that all suoh exolae lows ore but
pitiful evasions of the prohibitory clause J
have quoted from the Conslitulion.

To impress Ihia view of tho case still
stronger, let ub imagine that it is the inter-

Does not every one see what a door is open-

ever we allow to Congress the rigbt'to se-

With great truth, a Btandord writer on

that taxes are only direct when thoy or

The ConsLltution says. Art. 1, Sec. 1 -.

If this definition bo correct, und I know
ot none which draws a c learer distinction,
and tbo btriotures whluh I havo made

QOnstitatienul.

Tho same is also the oosc with all that
part of tho law reqairing coffee-house keep

toiea ore restricted to an apportionment,
and I would ask, what is a specific tax on a
mon'ij uooupation but a species of a capita-
tion or direct taxi Evidently, then, the
portion of the tax law is directly in
tbo face of the lettnr of the Conatllulion,
mainder is clearly against ila

BODiB of her ambitiouj citiiena and hnyo-
notu, bpforo she oould attempt to maintain

nndia. that the ho ooilod "Union" party,
(securing all tho offioea under tho pretonao
ot "bonoBt neutrality,") oompoaod of
Whigs, Know Nothings of 'M. who then
thought it not unoooatitational to proaotibo

with foretgnors and all other opponents of
Democracy throw off thoir garb, aud pro-
claimed all Democrats "aecoasioniala," their

ipupera were suppresaed, whUe

those Domoornta who remtiioad i
under the mad dog cry of traitors, by order
of tho petty tyrunljorry Boyle, denied tho
rijiht to veto or run for office. The oonso-
quenoo was, those time-honored haters of
Democrats had evorytbiag their own way.
A very ulight voto waa pollad, and tho com-
plete returns of the Anguat vote of this
par Pioellent " Union " patty waa never, nor
will be published, for it would discloao the
weaknosa of tho old 'Whig patty, curtailed
ot " its fair proportions."

Tbo effect of thia waa easily to be foto-
seen. Tbouaands who had been perseoutod
aud forced by the old dominant tyranny of
Know Nolliingiau), under the garb of Un-
ion, to join the ranks of Kirby Smith, fool-
ing safer amongst the rebels than with Ken-
tuckiana. Those yet here, and a majority
of the voWre are Demoorate, ate atill cooly

Nioholas coontiea. women aa well as men,
wero pretty effectually fleeced by one Col.
Metcalf; they wero relieved of thouaonds

man and hia doings were brought to an ab-
rupt close by cue rebel Col, Scott, who pot
Metcalf and his hosts to a diagracefol flight.
A •:</"<p'.nr.entary notice of this man and hjj
men is given in a letter of Brig. Gen. Nel-
son. This champion of liberty nas brought
mora injury upon the cauao of peace and
order iu thia State than almost any other
one man- Nearly every Damoorat in Bath
and adjoining counties, (every one who bad
any money), was pounced upon by the petty
Provost Marshall forced to take the most
unholy nod unconstitutional oaths, and then
coolly relieved of from ten to one hundred
dollars — all to further "liberty and Union."
In Montgomery and other aojoining ooon-
ties. tbe aame pacific process of '■galvan-
izing" yi> Democrats into " lovers of the
Union," waa made, and were filched froa
ten to two hundred doUara. Of course the
money sunk so deep in the recesses of thoir
capucioua pockets that it never again saw
the light of day.

counties, these Shylooks hod thoir tniagiv-

Morgan did come, and our Woodford Mar-

him. The loaves and fishee of o£ce being

This genlli'man. though young in years,
is at once inttodiiood lo the people of Ohio,
prominent iD its political Bff.iirs. He has
shown himself a jouug man of thought, of
brains and of oonrage, and for a liuio plain
talk ntlheBlh of January anpper, the Abo
liii.misti of tho Senate oommooced a
species of low peracoutious, lo which negro
norsbippers alone can descend.

They took it into thoir hruds that it was
a purt of their duties to raise n committee
(if their onn body to notify tho Democratic
Stale oilJcara of thoir eleoti)D, and in per-
forming this oflioioua work, Ibey cicladed
Mr. Critchpield from tho notice, by way
of paulahing him for remarks thoy put into
his mouth to suit the occasion. They bad
to start a positive falaeboed as an apology
for their mean act. Bat they failed ia both,
for Mr. CRiTCnriELK was sworn into effioe
6S Ihe Constitution directs, by Judge SuT-
LIPF of the Sapromn Bench, without quea-
tioos nnd without the superfluous inlcTposi-
tUm of an Abolition Senate.

Mr. IJRtTOUFXEI.D said nothing ot the 8th
of January supper that necessarily dis-
turbed any one's nerves. He spoke with
feeling uad with a frffo ojpression of iodig-
nation at tbo liigh-bandod acta of the Lin-
coln Adminiatralion, which, unlortunately.
bad more truth than poetry in it. He waro-
ed the Adminiatralion that such was the
rising and acoumulatiog feeling in the coun-
try ngainat Its bigb-handod acts, that the
people be believed were fast becoming in-
diiferent wbolher Lisxols or Jr.Ff. Davih
wiis in Washington City. We understood
it in no other light than as a warning lo the
" I'owera that be " lo not press their iniqui-
tous mi^asuri'n further upon a uuhmisBivo,
patriotic and peaco-loviug people.

Could a true pattirtand lover of bis coun-
try esy less ? Ia a man to get up in a pub-
lic ae^e^iibly of his friends, and lor the sake
of some tender-toed gentlemen, toll what
he knew was untrue — "cry peace, peace,

About the time of tbo announoemunt that

ordered tho Provost Marshal to cease ool-

ties by tbe Abolition gentry of tbo bayonets
— who have always and continue tokoep the
country r4.5itatad by their aohemes of op-
pression. YoE. all seemed be at peaoo
with one another ; bot this pleaaant state
of affairs was doomed to be of short darn-
on. The fact was, our Bayonets had
othiog to do during this " short and nctet
eace," and accordingly our very thought/iil

Mr. Smith, in sponkiog of ih* 8th (if Jnnu.
ary, seems lo ibink the aooner the unniver-
«iiry uf tb" 8tb, with its remtniscoiioes of
the Old Ha-o of A'ew Orltam is buried in

oiiUHu, says ho, it but rouiiuda os of Lin-
coln's aois of Qsorpation. Suohianot the
I'uot. and I here take isiuo with Mr. Smiib,
aud us a member of the Democratic ohurob
in gOJd Btandiog, I fuel perfi-otly free to
gpeak out in meeling. The charge is a base
alanJi-r on Cbo old patriot's memury.
Smitu, DO doubt, ia honest in bis vien
talks what he fuils, hut bis stupidity ot
camparisen aud ignoranoe of discriDiiuation
amouutj lo but impudi^iit superstition ; ofid
if he is ^aved at all by Ihe graco of Oei
racy from negro purgatory, it wil
through ignorance; tharefore be deserves
more to b(ijpittied than coudeumed by Ihe
Democracy,

I know ihe Democracy generally are not
10 his situation — unable lo diacrimioate be-
tween the action of a despot, oluthed with
the ohief cieoutive pii^ers of the nation,
ijsorriding the Coustitulion and lib"cties of
the whole people, by trampling under foot
the very means which elevated bim to unjust
dumiuioa; nnd tho aotion of a uiilitary
Generdl within the limits of bis own eu
oaaipmenl, while the "Itritiah Lion" lay
crouched without, aeekiug to devour lht>
VI ry lifu'hluud of the nation.

The foruier is kuufU hut to be most
heartily despisi-d, as ndi-spol and n Tyiaot
by uvury true Democrat in ibo laud ; while
the memory of thu lattor lives as a patriot
iu Ibe heart of every true Aroeriosn but to
be loved and adoied. Mr, Tliouias .Smith
before uudi^rtakiug QgBiu lo discuss the
merits uod douieriu of the 8tb of January
Hsa day uf Deinocratio auiiiveiM^, should
learu to disorlminuto betneon iW relative
condition ot the ohief ejcecutive of the
United States towards the people and that
of a loililary General within the legitimate

s, God savn the country from suoh oonser-
'ati-im, nnd I hope it will be re-echoed by
.vnry Irun patriot in tho land, beeauao we
'oulil hope for no mure at the hnnda of n

set of cowards and Bi'onphants, towards the
resl-irotion of peace hnd the preservation of
hogivprntnent, than wo can from its opoo
■nemii'B now in powiT in the North, and iU
uppii rebellious enemies in the South.

There am now but two parties in the

country, thn national Domoci ntlo party, and

'eseclional Abolition, alias Secession parly

hnrefore, tho men identifying themselves

ith the Democracy, wbo'O constant ettort

ems to be tho auhstltulion of conservatism

some other now name for the party, are

iworthy thn attention nnd spooiul concern

of the great DHm.^crutio party; because,

men who lack moral courage lo lay aside

old p^ty prejudices, and takn upon thom-

jelpes thJnamo ot Demfrrat by open ci>n-

t'esalon lo tho world, in trying limes like

these, in making a choice between Iho friends

iind enemies of the government, prove thci

lelvns dovoid of that independence so ae

F^sary to future usefulness.

Mr. Smith urged, ns one of the reaso
for postpooinent of the convention, " getting
rid of bad candidates, most likely to be
chogi^n if the nomination should be hurried.''
'Bad candidates," I presume this has tef-
erence to bold, fearless, independent, out-

■ piiken democrats, such as Hon. S. Modnry.
Hon. C. L. Vollandigbom, H..n, E. B. Olds,
and irien generally of that stamp, who have
taken an indepondont, fearless stand in do-
fense nf their country and govommenl.
against this -irrepresaible," abolition con-
flict. And If such ia the fact. I know I um
warranted by the democraoy of Ohio, in
saying the 8lh of January was just as
promising a time 'to gat rid of bad oandi-
datps" as at any later period of time, be-
cause these men are the men for the times.
Bud they stand a head and >houIders to day
iu the estimation of the democracy ohove
any milk and water, bffif-way. misooncep-
live, conservative ayoopbant iu tho State.
The democracv are ju-t aa ready now as
they will be in Joae, to class Abraham Lin-
coln's despotism with Andrew Jackaou's
patriotism. Theref-TC. just aa ready then
us now, to nominate that class of mon, vf ho,
in their own estimation, are conaorvalive
democrats, when, in the estiraotion nf the
demooracy propfr, they ore regarded as
half 'Way, wenk'kneed oSco hunters.

We have men in Ohio, professing to be
pure, unadulterated domocriits. who believe
themselves to be conservatives, because of
[heir cowardice in diaowniog tho democrat-
ic parly during ihe fierce storm of terror-
ism eigblcen months ago. Suppose all of
the demooraoy, during tho great hi
trial of tribulation, had di-owned th. ,
ly, who would have preserved it? Eoho
QOBwers nobody !

ith us, went 89 far in Ir'lil. ns to say e
oould not be both a democrat nnd pa-

We

k-kneed demoorftoy, or, what somo

but that they must disown all polil
oal parties until after tho war was over, bhiI

-• -■- their party. And why! he

then very popular to cry "no-
party."

Therefore, the democracy owe theap
.ilfice seeking hypocrites no thanks for the
preservation of the party. Who loaned
themselves eighteen mouths ago. as instru-
menl.s In tho hands of Black Kepublioan
Abolilioniats to threaten democrats witti
mob violence fur asserting their oonstitu.
A rights iu defense of democratic prin
oiples. T bey arc none the leas guilty foi
■eakncaa to olfeet the sale of thn democra-
cy to the abolition party, and should be s.
regarded by democrats every wboro. Pa
riotism and demooracy have nndergone m
:>hiingn in their relative position towards
i-ach other siuoo that tiino. jt
iHBding some men who proclaimed tho doo-
rine then, that a man could not he both a
demncrat and a patriot, are to-day loud
professors of democracy. And why? ho-
cauao thn deinocriitic parly ia now the
strangest party, and thoy am ollico soidters.
Hy motto is, away with such demooraoy.
The time has now come to select true and
tried democrats, who did not desert their
friends in the hour of trial, but had
Ith priociplea worthy of dofouso
aikost sloVms oi despotism, which they
'ould nut dis.iwn or desert, to court iho fa
orilism of abolition scctionalists. There-
jre. I hope to seo Ihe demooraoy in their
dsdom make ohoice of such dcmoorats in
30 next nominating State oonvenliun.
Hc.n. B. Uedary, Hen. C. L. Vallandig-
ham and Hon, E. B. Olds have been spoken
if for Governor; either of them will till Iho
bill, and meet with a hearty rnsponso from
the democracy.

I notice in some of tho Stales Gen. Klo-
Clollou's name Is menlloned iu connection
with the Proideiicy of I6)i-l. I hope and
trust no such weak Kneod. half-way speol-
loinocraoy will receive any conald-
oration at tho next National Dem'icra'.io
Convention. Hon 0. L. Vallandigham of
Ohio, Is my first choice for the next presl-
(iL'ucy, and I hope soon to see hii name
hoisted as tho ohnloe of tho demooraoy of
Ohio. Most truly yours,

A DEUOtJUAT.

WARRtK, Omo, January 12, 16G3-
Gov. Uedary— Sir; I want The CriiU
another year, and enclose two dollars. Il
mistako that tho Domocralio
did not moot on the 8lh.
There never wad a time when tho voice ol

(the old Dumooracy) should bo hoard in
oluar, bold, out apoken toner, andpromptly,
if the Sth was not the time— "a woid fillj
'poken is like apples of Gold iu pictures »f

the Republic into existence, who have fos-
'd its vital principles, to rally in their
support. Are thoy not assailad in every
T Is not the Constitution our ark of
safety, the shuot anchor of thu nation's
hnpo I And is it not assailed by principles
a thousand fold mora dangerous here at tho
North, aud a thousand limes more dauger-
.lus to liberty, than tho arms of tho re-
bellious South? We had a happy, prosper-
our Union, hut w» have it no loug.-r. We
under that Union made advances iu peace
id prosperity aa no nation in the world
had done. It is not so now — the freedom of
speech, of the press, protection of person,
of reputation, of property, uodot the guar-
.nly of paramoaut law, is no more ours,
a no existing government of any half oivi-
ized nation on the uarlh, is national liberty
il this dale so outraged by the despolUm
uf despots. OS in theae oiicu happy States.
The turmoil uf fanalicism has br.>ugbtall
tba worst elements of social life into active
being; and, as the turmoil of whirlpool
among turhid waters brings all tho tilth and
^■cutu of the sower to Ihe surface, ao has this
brought to the surface thu corrupt, veuol-

their want of senso and self couGdenee,
with all their pnttidiiy and crotchets to oou-
trol the Slut". Already the lives and health
of half a million of the flower of our young
men have been aaorificed useleasly ; two
thousand millions of national properly lav
ishly wasted, and national death and dea-
truotioa stalk before us, progressing with
fearful and giant strides, with but feeble
rays of bopo to bo seen nmidsl the gloom.
Who will put forth a hand lo save from des-
lruclion I The meu who hud the sense lo
foresee Ihe evil, to warn tho public against
it when tho first notes of the irrepresaiblo
inflict — of tho impossibility of living part
free and part slave Slates aa we had lived
for seventy years, were llrstullered. caunol
make their voices bo heard ! Must we
another year be atill and let mad men
and lunatics try, and continue to try, thoir
iisune expeiimenls at the expense of an
ternal overthrotv of un Union erected and
lequealhed to us by Wuahlngtou and his
lOU'inporariua 1 .

Do we need the direct assertion ■ f Thad,
Stovena and his folluiv traitors that tlit.y do
not intend Iho Union shall he restored as it
sunder the old Uoualitution 10 convince
that any of tfaoi^ who have acted with
them had tho treaeonuua intent to destroy
the Union from the firat day tbey were
clothed with power t Why ahouldwe rely on
any man's prufet^'iuo of love for the Union
nod.abhorrenoo of treaaon. who, while un-
der a solemn oath tu auppi.it and luaialain
it, would pronounce It ''a covenant wiih
hell or a league with the devil," or what is
even worse, trample upun his oath by viola-
ting its provisioua, iu trampling upon the
writ of habeas cotpui, the freedom of Ihe
press, liberty of sptoob, rights of conscience,
trial by jury, o( a trial iu our own disUiut,

political dHuagogues of bonitcbed aud be

Our record of two years past is not ored-

most j.tir.^iiiied mocaenta, nor for the com-
mon iustiuotfl of unroasoniag anirnale.

ions" of faUehooa, and relied on edicUof
tyraooy to enforce them aa truths, upon a
too willing, and, for the time, oreduloua

To Btem this torrent of v
error boa been no eaaf taak, as our rea-
ders, who were mado, more or leas, to beai
the brunt of the contest fur renaon end foi
light, very wellkuow. It required no small
degree of judgment and diioietion to i
goto Biifcly through narrows like the
tie hour of the raging hurriotiue.

Satisfied in our own mind that it
only the ground swell of orazad and infuri-
atrd lanatioism, we felt equally confident thai
the more turioos were the wiuda and thi
waves, iho sooner would they aasuagu
hence, when the passengers became tht
moat excited and tremul'iua, we stoud ihi
. most calm, indifferent aud determined.

We had faith in the people. That faith
■ neviT forsook ua a moment— that alouu
buoyed us up to the taak of a mighty work
in the orilioal hour. when, to have yielded,
all would have gone by the board— ship, paa-
aengera and cargo. We knew-we knew
well— uo living man had a right to know
•botle: — the indomitable courage, the en-
cluiing palriutiatn, the living fuitb, the un-
oonquprable spirit of Liberty wbioh abound-
ed in the heart of tho old Uemocralic party.
It was our only hope— our only confidence

(he cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by

night, which had so often, thruugb good
and through evil report, load tliis piioplu c
of danger and difficulty, and placed o
great and good country on the road to
high destiny. Defeated by
,fue, or deceived by its Uadi-rg, it was over
ready to renew the oouteat with undimin
iaLcd fervor and unabated attuchmeut to tbi
,failbof tbo falhei

Knowing, then,
parly— faithful, honcat, a
j~why could wo doubt

.bto old

faitbleaa scampered off — tho weak for a
moment ahruok from thfi impending shock
. — tbo oorrupt boat about in orooked palhe,
as on tbo scent for prey; but there sUII
stood firm and immuvablo tho groat array
of the faithful, closing up their rivoD ranks,
holding aloft conatiluliun and law, druniug
to their aid the doubling, ntuulog to thtir

ceived its purposes, doubled its iati'grity,

They had

em umpio opportunity of pleading this
■.ccssily. While they raised an army large
jough lo bavii conquered the world if well
indled. under the prt-lext of conquering
ttie Stales in rebellion againat their free
platform, thoy proclaimed Iho law of
■ssity" to subjugate the Dei
I not in rebellion, and thus
ory of saving Iba Union, they were striking
tub all poaaible rapidity tu destroy every
eslFge nf conBtituUonal government, mak-
ng aerfa of the white luboritig people North
,ud South, and substituting in their l>lace
of freedom the bliick alaves of the cotton
and sugar plsulotiona.

We opeued up this whole sobject in ad

Vance, in the firbt number of our paper, now

two years ago. Since then we have given

our whole time, and what Wlent we posaeaa

ed, lo heepiog as fair and truthful a record

of all these monstrous political events, as it

was po.'siblo for us lo do wilh our limited

meana. The maltira contained in these

volumea are mojt eilraordiiiary and bewi!

. "free institutions" and tho "right of

Itches and huug Quakers for '■ the glory
of the Lord.''

c readers, who have accompanied ua
igh the puflt Two voluniea will, we hi -
lieve, find the Third of still greater iuter-
eat. We have justpnaaedthe Rubicon, from
Deepotiam and Military Baatilos, to the sea-
son of diaouasion. The year IcOi tried the
nerve and courugo of tho military oflicT,
that of )W3 will test Itie eourago and abili-
ty of the statesman. The eibaualjon of
niea and the universal nbh )rrence at the
.oghter of our people on tho field of bat-
— more lathe character of murder than
war — is becoming so general, that " wui
itors" would not find much respeot pail
their uppeala if tried again. Taia shock
to tho public mind will demand some other
.03 lo settle our difficulties than thishor
waste of life and treasure. The (error-
of basliles has departed, and the people
have, in their power, declared that diaeustinu
ihall bo free. We then enter upon anew
;ru — the era of a wordy controversy. Tho
people ato all alive to the tuhjects. Their
open and they will understand —
The clap-trap of the half-witted demagogue
will bo detected and diccarded — the lau-
guugo of the true, seuaiblo und serious
atesmsD will be demanded.
Amoog us of the West, will be the ques-
tion of the highest impnrtanoe, " Shall ict
sink down (IS. serfs to the hiaHitst, speeula-
tioc YankiC forall time lo come—iwindUii
by bit tarijfi. robbed by his taxes, andfkin-
ncd by his railroad rTwnifjiolifS .'"

The Wost will demand a Convention of
the Slates, with delpgales elected by the
people Ihemaelvea, without tho intervention
of bayonets, and if other States refuae to
meet her. sho will, through bor delegates,
consult her own iuierestsund demaud her
--qual rights. But there la no dauger of
other Stales- they have just as much iuter-
est in meeting her aa she baa in moetiug

Will- News or llic Week.

With tbo exception of the eipadilion up
the Arkan-aa river, the armica do not appear
to have moved for tho past week. Thie
oipfilition. after n determined re&istonoe.
succeeded in taking Arkansaa Post, a pretty
"ell fortified plaoe in ono of tho bends ol
tho river. Tho engagement lasted pretty
much all day, the Pust being oaauullod from
the river by a half doien of our lurgeet
gunboats, under command of Admiral rt>ii-

ind the

.t the Si

loked

by SiiBKMAK's land foroea. Tbo latest ac-
counts say wo loat OHO men ; tho Confede-
rate loaa not given. Tho Post surrendered
with -I.OOt) priaoners of wur to Purter
commanding the flvet.

Tho alory of Confederate cavalry aeizlng
five of our heavily laden transport boats,
r gunboats, on the Cumber-
id destroying them, though
true, reads like romauoo.

We have the saddest accounts from our
ik und wounded in tbo lato battles, b\it
uat this week withhold general remarks,
111 faol. tbo hoart siaaens at the bare reci-
ral of these horrid and useless butcberies.
They are a disgrace to a nation half oivili-
led. What are wo getting in return for
this monatrous slaugbter of our young i
Think of it, and ebudder for tho penaltiea
that must be paid for suoh conduct.

A Good WorR lor ilie Di'uiocrncy.

We noticed last week the eleoIioQ ot that
veteran politician, ,W«. A. ItlGUAHUSON, to
the United Stntes Senate by tho Legislature
of Illinois.

In Indiana, the Republicans who"ab.
fquatulated" from tho Senate to prevoni
an election of Senators, found the atmua-
phere too hot to remain long out ol theii
seats, and they aneaked back with the best
^racH they cnuld, when the Legialalu<e
elected T. A Hendricks for the long term,
f.ix yeara from the 4th of March next, and
Mr. TlTRPlB for tho abort term, to fill tbe
place made vacant by the infamous ejpul-
Biun of Senator BfliGiir. and aiuce tempo-
rarily filled by that arch traitor and dema-
givguB, and troublesome politician. Gov.
WaiGliT. He waa at leaat once Governor
of that Slate. He was ono of the moat
troublesome, shallow brained triokgtors we
ever knew. Slay the Democratic party get
rid of all such trash. Mr. Ut:N'DniCK3 is
iS of the ableat, moat solid and worthy
en of tho West.

See the letter of Mr. Brigut in another
part of our paper.

Old Ptnns'jlsania won honors enough to

'T one Demooratio majority, Charles R.

be evident Inlentlon of the aboli-
rhen a portion of the Southern
States first aeoeded from the Union, (as tho
abolition leaders jierfectly understood before
that they would,) lo let them go, and turn
rill their ("overnmental spite and fury on the
DemooraU of the North. Thia original
purpiiae did not succeed, and for a lime the
abolilionintji became the most devoted Union
men in the country, by profession. They
even laid down the vocabulary which every
man mast repeat, parrot like, after them. —
If ho did not do this ho was denounced as
ialoyal and must be punished. Hence, so
ar aa they could they carried.oa a double
rar, one against tbe South, including all the
lave States in their enmities, jenlouai
fipites, and tho whole Democratic party of
he North. Scarcely a Democrat of Ohio
■omea into our office, uven old K'ey beaded
Tien of aeventy and eighty winters, who
never breathed a breath not in \o\
Foction for their country, but what tells
i>f the threats againat life and prr.petty
made by these abolitionists, commencing
with the vAy outbreak of tho war, and con-
tiouing until publio ECntimontmade tbe rep-
etition daDgerou<i. Hence, peace and order
has been enforced in Ohio through the upri-
sing of the Democrntio party and iho re-
solve that no violence would be aubmilted to.
But for this, Ohio, to day, would be in tho
name ahameless condition ra Missouri — her
Democratic citizens being forced to submit
to the same polilioal, moral and religious
degradation. Every Democrat in Ohio und
in all tbe Northern Slates knows this to be
a fact. Not one particle of disorimioalion
xould have been made between a real seces-
sionist, caught wilh arma in hia hand, and
ihe most quiet, subniissivo cilijin, whoso
son or sous may have been in the Union
army, provided he talked tbe language ol
the UoDftitution, and etill held to Ibe faiib
nf Ibu Demooratio fathora. With theSe re-
marka the following published in the St.

they enforce /o^ic which would, if applifj
tolhem. stop every prejs they have got— im-

1 us, but uvow doclriues wbioh if ever
turned againat tbemaclves, will make short
work of the authors of auoh despotim.
They had better tako our advice, join us
f peace, law, order nod strict and impar-

will fail in MisBOLiii unless the pou[i!o ara
put down by foroo, their property confisca
and their lives made tbo forfeit. Thew

cratic party and tbo Emanoipalionistv.

Wo gnvo lust week lull o.^lructs from tbe
moHsagea of tho Governors of Now York
and Keutooky. We add below what Gov.
Burton, of Delaware, aays in his mosaage
H> the Legislature of Ilml Slnto. After
denouncing the abotilion proolamatinn and
arbitrary arrests, he esposes the base at-
tempt of tbe Government, through that
weak old noodle, Qon. Wool, to control tbe
elections by an armed soldiery stationed at
the polls. Wo hope Gov. Gamblb, of Mia-
soori, wilt read this ineesnge, if ho is not
pa^t reading and reflection. There ii a
rapid end overtaking these high- handed aud
HbameloBS acts. Men exhibit a species of
derangement who suppoao such acta can
last and become a part of our eyatem. Tbo
sooner, therefore, that they commenoo turn-
ing their otientien to sooiething less offon-
bivo and more in accordance with tbo prin-
ciples of a Government controlled by law
and tho ordinary dooenciea of life, the bot-

Gov. BuiiTOS says :

" It is greatly to bo feared that tho de-
termination on the part of tho Adminigtra-
lion to press and curry out its emancipation
meosurus, will place tho country in a muoh
morn perilous condition and Joavo us with-
out a glimmering hope of a restoration of
tho Union. Who. of ordinory inlolllgenoe,
whose reason in not blinded by fanaticism,
cab fail tu see and fear the danger of per-
slsliof; in tho course of policy which seoma
to huvo been adopted by tho Admlnistra
tlou !

"The blow wbiuh is designed (o strike
dnwn aloverv everywhere. Is not aimed at
tbo revolted States and ibo disloyal citiziDB
thereof alone, but it falls upon the loyul aii
well as disloyal. What is nut accomplished
by uuoonstUutluQol proolamation is to be
I'lt'octed by a oomproinlae to recommend to
Congress Ihe passage of an not providing
O'linpi-DFation to slaveholders for Iheir
alavea, whioh would bo equally unconttitu
tionol. But DO snob provision hul been
made, and Ihero i-i no rea.ioa to suppose
any will be, and if it wore made in striol
ar^ordiioce "ilh tbo promised reoommcnd
allou. It would be hut to tax tbo peop!a to
pay fur tho slaves to Re freed. It wonid be,
loo, at n rote nl lead 50 uw cent, below
the value of tho slaves, and to bo paid In n
medium now worth oooijuartor less than
pold, that is. ono <]uarler below par, and
wblob, beloro the time of payment, will uut
bo Icsa than fiO per cent, tteluw pur, If nol
utterly wortbleas.

"Wilh this emancipation BOhemo con
Biimmated and curried out, what wunid be
iho condilion of Delawaro with even her
own slaves added to llio present number of
free negroes, to Bay nothing of the Londrede
that would no doubt come bfriiuitlie uei^'b-
boring Slates of Mnrjlaud and VlrgiuU,

and perhaps from other States I It is very
eb'ar Io nie tlint snoh a pnlioy cnrrifd nut
would prove highly delrimental Io the in
reresls of tho people aud tho country at
large, In any and every po»,"rlhIe aspect in
which it can bo viewed, aa the inevitable
re-ultof the project would bo to tax the
indu-irioDS, hardworking while man to pay
for Ihe emuncipatioQ of the slaves, and to
oblige bim to support them afterward*,
either in iho alms house, county jail, nr
Otherwise. Otb-rs may think differonlly,
but it it to be fenmd that their mindi are
elouJed and their judgments biased by fan-

" The fundamental conditions of the V-\-
iTa\ Constitution and tbe prineipb s "
which the GoFornment is baaed, trc-aui
Iho oiislenoB of independent sovereignrv m
the respoolive Slotes, with their re.s.rveii
rights of self- government assured tn them
hy ihi-ir oo-e(|iial power. Without thaae
condilions and pri not pies the Government
never could have been formed, and can
never exist. Partioular rights of tbe States,
where it was deemed expedient, were ei-
pressly guaranteed by the Constitution, and
all others were oarefully guarded hy tbo
limitation of Ihe powers grnnti-d, and ei-
I'ress reservation uf such powers as were
not grunted hy the compact of Union.

" The auhjecl first in importaneo to which
r shall invito your attention, more vitally
affeois Ihe Interests, rights, privileges and
liberties uf the people of Delaware than any
other, perhaps, which ever engaged the at-
tention and delitieration of the General
A^euihly of this State ajoco the formation
of tbe GoveroinoBt, and toe fuluroeiislono"
of the Government itanlt is not less involved
iu the ia-u.'s- a now and novel use of tbe
mililury power of tbo Pedoral Guverumeul,
which, if tolerated, and carried out in prao-
tioe, will most inevitably result in tbe per-
version of Ihe prinoiplea and power of the
Government aud its ultimate total deatruo-
