The Rclgn of Terror In 1863. While at Dayton lately we paid a visit to Mv,0. L. VALLANDIGHAM, who realties noW where lie did when he was arrcstod by BCIINSIDE, for tho crime of making a Democratic speech in 1863.-( His .. y'front'doOritili rbtains the JnArice ntid docement made upon it! by tHe 'battering «*U r*m' employed to foreo an 'entratiee into his house. Not finding at^ entrance easy in this direction, they turned to a side door, against vfTucli they were more succcssful, and through whose broken panels they finally crowded, and then and there effected the seizure'aud kidnapping of tho inmate. The circumstances of that arrest .. were extraordinary as they were cruel, and calculatcd and designed to cxcitothe deepest alarm and terror. In the dead hour of the night, not less than one hungdred and fifty soldiers sot out upon the hor'oic enterprise of capturing a private and unarmed gentlemau. who was asleep 'In his house. They threw out pickets in ,w ,oll directions, aud made their approaches as cautiously as if they were about to as.sBail a hostile battery, instead of taking prisoner a quiet aud peaceful citizen. As \ve look back upon that audacious procceding it loses none of its interest but monstrosity, when viewed by the light ".V'-of history, causes it to assume, if possible, a darker aspect. The manner of the arrest was much inoro, outrageous than the famous seizure of the leaders of the -"••French Republic by Louis Napoleon, .' when ho made his famons coup d'etat in ,1851. the enormity of which lias always exposed its author to reprobation. There^ jiare mauy reasons to believe that when Mr.

Vallandigham was seized it was the intention of the cowards aud malignants ••_•.. who prompted it to put him to death, after the fashion of the -'reigu of terror" in*

France in 1793. Compelled somewhat by the force of public opinion to abandon this project directly, they still sought H-r'to do it^indirectly. lie was sent'Sortith, .Tpot through the regular and accilstomcd line of communication at City Point, but through Tennessee, where no exertion had been spared to so excite tho Ohio soldiers against: him that he would be murdered before he was through the Federal lines.

That, this was the hope of the getters-up a'nd'prompters of this kidnapping is certain.

The Truth Succinctly Expressed. It will be remembered that the watchWord that carried the North through tho lato civil war, and propelled its millions of volunteers to the Southern plains, was that"the Government must be preserved." How the Government ever was imperilled by eleven States withdrawing from it, forming a uirw go-serume^v never very clear to our comprehension, it seemed to be a war rather for the proaor.

Vation of territory than any form of govttamaot. Iiut it was not so regarded, as '"wo have said, by the mass of our people.

They went to war, spent 84,000,000,00 or §5,000^000,000 aud 1.500,000 lives "to preserve the Government." They were successful in the military struggle, and overwhelmed the enemy after this enormous cost and sacrifice. .Now, of course We should Lave the

served" in all its integrity. Such was the promise. How has it been fulfilled? Listen, and hear one of the greatest champions of the war, Mr. Raymond, of the New York Tiviwho, in a late number of that journal, tells us: "It is quite useless to ignore the plain and palpable fact that the rebellion and the war have revolutionized our Government. We are not living under the Constitution of 1189, but under an unwritteu Constitution, which represents the National will as embodied in( the action of Congress. The limitations of the old Con stitutiou have ceased to have bindin force ThePresi dent is powerless, because two-thirds of Congress are against him. The Supreme Court is powerless, because the case can not come up. for its action, or the Court has no means of enforcing its decrees. The people are without remedy, because ten States are not allowed any voice, and the remainder sustian the usurped,author ity." We are living under a ile/ucto gov erument resting on force and the will of the people who sustain it. The war wrought a revolution in public sentiment, which, in its turn, wrought a revolution in the administration of the Government. Congress represents that revolution act under its inspiration

England has just such a Constitution as .?.k J?*10 option of Parliament and the W|H ofjfcjie people is the unwritten ConBtitatiq^by which England is governed .'sjthe actual state of our affairs.. It w^pqirhtfpBj wiser to adjust our publi,c ae* tioih ttf it than *to waste strength and time in contending against it.'""

Th®

rowful but condensed ruth, that no intelli^ man will dispute. -They. ,will bear reading ovCr several timeS^'and they ought to elicit much reflection. This, thenj has been the result of the war—not to save,, but to destroy the Government, for which. Millions laid, down their lives, in the delusive hope and expectation that that they were.making,our institutions' permanent. A. fiber acknowledgment than the above to the wisdom of those who opposed the War and disputed the whole philosophy upon which it was based, we have never seen, and, coming as it does, from an original advocate and supporter of-tho war, it'possesses tenfold foroe.

Nov.io, 1808, W. N. WASSON.

Tlie \Vnrnlng8 of Statesman. Daniel Webster, iu his day, WAS re-gnrdedV-ns a profound statesmen. His party i'riends uised to eiill^him the "great expounder of''tbo Constitution." He was a man of vast intellect und great analytical powers of inind. Here is one of his best illustrations of a groat.and important truth. It will be found in his'Bunkcr Iiill Monumcu' oration, and wo would ask radicals who aije the advocates of military despotism in tho South to give it a most carclul reading:

A military .republic, a government founded on mock clcctions.and supported only by. the sword,.is a movement!indeed, but aTOtrogade and disastaous movement from the regular and old fashionfcd1 monarchal system." If men would enjoy the blessings of republican government, they must govern themselves by reason, by mutual counsel aud consultation, by a sense of feeling and general interest, and by the acquiescence of the minority in tlie will of the majority properly expressed and above all, the military must be kept, according to the language of our bill of rights', 'in strict'subordination to the civil authority. Where this lcs3on is not both learned and practiced, there can be no political freedom. Absurd, proposterous, it is a scoff and a satire upon i'ree forms of government to be prescribed by military leaders, and the rights, of suffrage to be exercised at the point of the sword.

The closing sentence is pcculiary signiGcent to-day in view of the condition of affairs South, and deserving' of more careful consideration on that account.

Another Indian Massacre.

Auothor Indian massacre is reported —this time a small garrison of troops, instead of tho usual victims of savage ferocity,, the unprotcctod settlors of the extreme West. When the Mexican war ended, though it brought within out territorial limits several thousand Indians, the army wan reduced to some twelve thousand soldiers, who were found abundantly sufficient, under the administration of the War Department by Jefferson Davis, to protect the then cnor.uitus emigration to California, and such uihorror as an Indiun nmssuere was quite'uukuown. At the. close of the civil war, liko the rotten old powers of Europe, we are cursed with vast standing army, which, if not equal" in number, is certainly as expensive, and as great, a burden to the producing classes as that of the worst king-ridden people in Europe. But though the people have to bear this enormous bnrden, and though the only excuse for an army at all—the Indians—arc far less in number and much easier to manage than at tho close of the Mexican war, they cannot be spared to protect the Bottlers of the West, or even to keep up the ordinary garrisons on the western borders. No they are needed in the South to protect the Abolitionists while working out the great experiment of reforming tho work of Goil and making the white man equal to the nigger! What a work for American soldiers! A standing army, not to uphold kings, or popes, or aristocratices, but to uphold niggers, and force white men to Become the equals of those God has made their subjects or "siaves,"-while all this time tho emigrants or settlers of the Wept are massacred by Indians!

Thought It Yos de Old Man.

A Dutchman, who in a fit of passion was swearing terribly, was reproved by a church deacon, who chauced to overhear him. "Why do you swear so Ilans?'' said the deacon "don't you know that it is very wicked ?". "Yaw, I know it peso wicked." "Do you know,'' said the deacon, anxious to:sound tho depth of his roligious teachings, "do you know who d,ied to save sinucrs "Yaw,"said Uans '!Cot died to save em." "Not God, exactly, Ilans, but the son of God." "So?" exclaimed ,^aus, a new light breaking in upon him, "was it one o: the poys? I tinks all de wile it vos do old man."'
