Who U responsible for the present state of affairs? All the men and all the money that the power that be have asked for, have been promptly given them. Everything lias been fur-nii-lied that has been asked for. No troops, under imilar circumstances, were ever put iu the field in better condition . Iufautry, cavalry and artillery" have all beeu equipped with the finest arm that could be procured. Our soldiers are not cent into the field without hoe and in rags. And what i the condition of the army opposing Ui? The fpetial dlspalchei to the Ciucinnatt Gazette thu describes it: The rebel are wretchedly clad and generally destitute of hoe. The cavalrymen are mostly barefooted and the feet ot the inf .ntry are bound up iu rag aud p.eccs of new hides. Their uniform are ia tatter, aud many are without hats or c.p; they are very aanguino of fucccss, and ay wbeu tliey get to Baltimore they will jiet ev erylhinj they ncei They have very few tents, the men moatly. when camped, sleeping on the bare ground. We cannot but admit that men who tight under tich cinu instances must be inspired with teal for their cause and a terrible earnestuesi which gives them courage, endurance and hope. Their elf denial almost equal that of our father in the Revolution, whatever may be their ertors and crimes. Otlicer and men alike fiht for their cauMf, not for emoluments or py. j t But we ft irtod out to uge.t one way to end i the war. If Mr. Liclm could effect an ex- i change of olliceri with Jirr.

If BkAtaiuARD had had the com- j tuand of HaLLiv. a' army before Corinth, would ! the latter have eTCaj-ed the former? We think j cot. If Lik, and Jpixsrox, and Jackson had been at the head of McClellan' miniticent ; army, the Star and Stripe would iu all pababil- j ity be now waving over Richmond. We da not ! intend, in nuking this uggetion for a ctxnge of; olScer. to disparage the zeal and cupicity of the j very large number of those who have fought gal-1 lantly at;d successfully the b.ttlei of the Union, but none can denv that the commander of the 1 rebel armie have thus far dislajed generalship far mperior to our own. A change ot othcera is ; of coun impossible, but if we have men capable : of leadlug our armie successfully, they should : be place 1 iu command, even if they sdiould be advanced from the rank.

There at the le.i cdculatioa from l.Wrt Ui 1,JK) people in attend ance, and th convention ru decUe-Uy the most enthusiastic body of American freemen that ever convened here for a aimilar purpose. Delegation from the everal township came pouring in at an early hour In the morn a.;, la wagons and in carriages, carrying aloft on hickory pole beautiful banner, and long before the appointed lime the street presented a fast ea of human being, all eager, aare a few nondescript Republican charlatan, to participate in the dehberaüona of a true and devoted Cnion men a ever live!. Here could be frmd the genuine patriot, willing to lay aside all partisan feelings, without discarding one jot tf Democratic r.rii.ci pie, and rally to the rapport of the Federal Administration, and help the President to restore the national author ity over the entire domain, that, according to hi own language, "the Union will again be the Union at it teat" Upon this dec! trntion, io full of patriotism and devotion to the noble fabric of American liberty, the Democracy ia willing to lend a helping hnd, at any cacriSce of life and treaaure. to reassert the Federal authority over the seceded States, and bring them back with all their rights and guarantees under the Constitution unimpaired.

The ticket nominated i an exceedingly good one, and will without a shadow of doubt be elected by an overwhelming mijority oTer the mon grel one put in nomination by the sham Republican, calling themselves par ticrlUnce Union men, who-e great "tort, as the renowned showman "A. Ward" would observe, is in humbugging the people, unlearned in the art of deception, without giving them a fair equivalent. The Democracy have nominated good men, hörest and competent, and n.en who?e past political record U a sure guarantee for their future course.

The Convention was large and entliu.-iatic. An account of it state: At an eirly hour on the 30th the town began gradually to fill up, and by 2 o'clock the delegation from the different townships came ponrmg in. The de'eg ition from Robb town-hip attracted particular attention, being preceded by a banner having on it: "Indiana Legislates for White Men" ' The Union as it was, the Constitution a it i." Thi wag followed by a large pncesion of ladies dressed " white, with red, white and blue sashes, all bearing American flag. Tb delegation from Black township, preceeded by music, al.-to made a handsome display. Then came the Harmony delegation, their beautilul band wagon fdlcd with ladies all dressed in white, and each one bearing a small American Hag, and singing that popular American ong, "The red, white and blue;" a they pust-ed ffr-rough the immense crowd to the grove prepared for the meeting they were heartily greeted by cheer alter cheer for the ladies. The other towi.hii nUo made a very creditable display. At the grove the iTeaU in front were tilled with ladies, which seemed to inspire the masses with renewed exertion to restore our glorious Union. Afier adopting a series of patriotic resolution the following nomination weie r.iade: For Representative, E. M. Spencer; Sheriff, Aaron Lichteuherger ; Auditor, J. B. Gardner; Treasurer, Wm. B. Smith; Surveyor, James W. Whitworth; Commissioner, W. S. Robb; Coro ner. F. M. Mitl. It was then on motion ordered that we indorse the nomination made by Vanderburgh county of A. I . Whittlesey for tho S.ate Senate, and M. S. Johnson for joint Jleprcseutative, and pledge to them or hearty support. Jude Law then took the stand, and in an able and patriotic manner defended his position in the last Congress, and conclusively demonstrated to all who heard him that the assault made against him by Joe Wright and the abolition press of Indiana, were false and unworthy of belief, gotten up to deceive and mislead the honest inassi . Alter which Mr. Holcomb, of Gibson county, and Captain Dennis, of the army, made rousing and patriotic apeals in favor of the Constitu tion n it ü, arnt the Union as it was." Advising the people to look to the Democratic naitr a their ark of tafetr in thi our hour of trial. Pkrbt. The Democracy of thi county met in convention on the 30th of August. The following resolution were unanimously adopted: Ilttnlrnl, That wo rerere the Constitution of our beloved countryit is the bond ot union, the palladium of our liberties, the f heet anchor of nil our hope, Mtid must le enforced over every loot of the American republic. lirtulrrd, That the Union as it was must be restored, rebellion crushed, treason punished, and the law enforced, to accomplish which the Democracy of Perry county hereby pledge every energy, everr man, and every dollar. RrsoUed, That the Democracy regard the con tinned attack of the Republican press and Abo lition orator ujhmi our L eneral in the held, a fraught with the utmost dancer to the success of our urm, and n giving aid and com tort to the enemy who mut rejoice ut seeing such wholesale denunciation, und evidences of lis;i ti?d' action and want of rontidence in tlioe General who are Ictdinc the Union army against them. AVscrer, That to our brave fellow citizens now in the service of their country we tender the gratitude of ou heart for their noble sacrifices and Spartan bravery: they have made the lame of Indiana a undying as time it-elf, and won for themelves iuimort:dit J their deed will loim the brightest page of American history. The following ticket was then nominated: or Representative, .tames Hanlin; Treasurer, Rifled VaughMi; Sheriff, Ahraham Ltshcr; Surveyor, D.tnicl Rf McKim; Coroner, Thomas J. Hall; Commissioner, Michael Duh. The Rffvrtrr says: The convention w.s well attended, and its deliberations wete harmonious. It was eminently a if -vte tnan'a convention, and from liit to last, iu ad of it deliberations, the nigger was ignored. When the nominations were announced they were greeted with three lusty cheers, which, a each candid ate came forward to address the convention, were repeated with a will. The success of the ticket is regarded as certain by every one with whom we have conversed. All that i netessury to secure success i vigilance. We feel confident that will not be overlooked. Spwial CorrepnJnc of the Chicago Times. from .Tjriuplii und ttir ouilt. Mtiirius, Sept. 4, (ria Cairo. Sept. S). I extract the follow ing items trom the Grenada Apjtal ot the 1st inst.: Governor Harris issued an executive order on the lHth nit., stating that the necessity of arming the thousands of gallant troops now returning the northern prisons, renders it impossible to procure arms lor the State forces, and tlie effort to organize a State corps is therefore deferred. Atlanta paper complain terribly of the l uge amount of counterfeit Confederate note iu circulation, au 1 .says there is probably ot.e huu-ucd thousand d.ll rs circulating in that city alune. Sdivm B. lhukiier is eteite-1 a Mj r General, and assigned to the command of the Third Grand Division ot the array, which i thought here to be the corps recently commanded by General Bratir The Grenada Apptal ot the 31 contain Richmond advices of the 2d. Dispatches from (ien Lee w ere communicated to Congress on the 2d. Jeff. Dtvis accompanies them w.ih thi explanation: "Frt-m these dispatches it w ill be seen that GJ has ag.,;n extended H shield over our patriotic army, and blessed the cause ol the Confederacy. A signal victory h teen achieved on a field already immortalized by a gallant achieve tnent of our troop. Tot much praise cannot be bestowed i u the skill and daring of the com mmdit. Gr.urals and the conduct, valor, and hardd..d of the troop who executed the valiant movement." The Afpral claim a grett victory in Virginia. It think it must necessarily have a most beneficivl result iu the country for the Southern cause, iuspiring confidence in it ultimate success, and have a ditefu'ly depressmc effect on the North, proving the utter futility of subjugating the Stuth by arm. It will piubably incline them to other raeau of pacißcatiou. The new conscription law South makes all subject to duty between 1$ and 45, and author tie the enrollment of conscripts wherever found.

McDoirellTke Battle on Saturday and Monday Secetaity a Satutnal Uprising ta " refl Inxaiiitn Our Wdundti Saldiert: Waähzsoto, September 4. There is just row a cessation of the tension of public anticipation, and to day the city ot Wahinton is a unconcerned a if the enemy had retaken himself to the shore of the Gulf. The theatres are crowded to tuffocation each night, and the humor of the low cmdiat. ia a broad and as well received, and the audience as free from apprehension and a jolly, a if the tide of loyalty bad just overflowed forever the rebel capital. For a week there wis a fercrih anxiety of a painful character; people suspended everything, almost to their very breath, to iufortn themsclve of the progress of event. But now the worst is known, and although our proud armies lie, foiled an! fhattered, around their fortification, a reactiou ha taken place, and teople are a cheerful and careless a in the palmiest hours of our national glory. This seeming anomaly i not an unnatural result; the human mind is strongly elastic, and, when forced in one diiection, will, aooner or later, recoil to the opposite extreme. Perhaps, also, it is felt that our affairs have reached and paed their cruis. aod that the nation, however weak and sick, is convalescing. The history of the fighting before Washington has, in spite of the column alter column which ha been given in the daily press, yet to be written. I doubt that it ever will be fully, for now, at le-.st, there is no pen hardy enough to apply itself t'j the task. The man who should dare to tell the whole truth -who should give detail of the oncnly charced treachery, of whispered incßiciency, of rumored cowardice, of the wholesale slaughter would be regarded a an insane alarmi-t, and, in addition, would probably, at the requisition of some Star Chamber, find himself inspecting the doing of mankind from behind the grates of a prison. The full and truthlul history of event for the l ist fortnight would fill us with mingled feeling of astonishment, pride and indignation. Never since the war begun ha there been a gretter display of all that is manful in human nature, and, at the same time of those .alilie that make one blush to own hitmelf kindred to m m. Among the former, let me instance King's division, composed largely of Western troops among whom were the 2d, Cth and 7th Wi.consin. Before gt ing into battle they drew ninetytwo hundred rations; and upon coming out, twenty-three hundred. They struggled against the most fearful odd for nearly an entire dav, and only at last doggedly consented to move from the field when satisfied that the only alternative to retieat was complete annihilation. The Michigan 3d was under tire just one-third of an hour. They entered the tempest of death two hundred and fifty strong; they emerged from it w ith a jaded powder-blackened remnant of one hundred and ten. The 7th Wisconsin lost nearly two hundred; the 2d, about two hundred and fifty. . The Indiana and Ohio regiment generally came out of the conflict with more than doubly decimated rank. In tact, Western valor was everywhere conspicuous, a the long list ot killel and wounded will abundantly demonstrate. While squeaking of Wisconsin regiment, it may be opjxrtuiie to mention Gen. McDowell, in whose division they so well fought. Charge of the gravest nature are made against him by not merely all hi men, but by otlicers high in command and intelligence. It does not matter whether these charges be true or not, tor. so long as his old i er s believe him a traitor, and believe that he intentionally sacrifice them, go long will they be demoralized and inefficient. Much blame i attached to McDowell lor not holding the enemy in check at Thoroughfare Gap It is every wh& believed that a single regiment could hold the pass in question ngninst ten thousand men. Now it is not generally known, but it is nevertheless true, that, within a distance of four miles from White Plain (w here Lonstreet massed hi force before lalling upon McDowell), there are no less thin five ap through the Bull Kun Mountains, each ot w hich afford a easy a passage for troop as that ufl'rd jd by the ono especially defended by 'McDowell. And the truth is, that, instead of forcing their way through Thoroughfare (Jap, whence Lee and Iongstreet divided their forces, sent forward a small colum:. to employ the Federal, and then pushing through the other pawes, thev massed their force at a point n few mile northwest of McDowell, ond swept down upon him with irresiftihlc fury and ovei w helming numbers. These are the fact in the case, but are carefully concealed, either through ignorance or design, from the publ c. Stories of the most absurd and ridiculous character are everywhere current relative to the same commander. Ono is, that he wears a peculiar kind of a hat, which he ha beeu seen to wave toward the enemy during tho progress of a battle, and which i said to embody a system of preconcerted signal with the enemy to preserve him from thfcir tire McDowell may be unfortunate; he is certainly unpopular with hi men to an extent that reii!er In removal a matter of expediency; but that he is a traitor I do not for a single moment admit. Treason doesn't run in the McDowell blood; for hi brother, now in command of tnop t the Wet, is ns gallant a sohl, er und as true a patriot a ever drew swoid in defense of his country. Saturday was the grand struggle of the week. Eatli previous day had ben marked by some conflict, which grew fiercer and heavier as the week rolled on. until S i tarda v. when the com bined fortes of lK)th the immense armies hurled j themselves u)n each other with desperation, j Whether we were outnumbered or out generaled j may, peihaps, never be told; sulrice it that, after ! one of the bloodiest battles in the history of tho war, the result was conceded to be adverse t the j side of loyalty. Both sides wet e too exhausted to renew the conflict on Sunday, the rebels to ' pursue or we to retreat. Monday came, and, ! rising from their rest of twentr-four hours, the I rebel were again in motion, moving around our riiiht tlank. They essayed aain a movement ! that they have so often repeated during I be war, j but this time unsuccessfully. Our wearied tioop j gathered their enemies for another effort, swept; the attacking column Irom the field, and then the ! whole army fell back under the secuie protection j of the gun of the fortification. I I do not write lhe.se things to create alarm or, consternation, but rather that our northern people j may understand our t.rue position, and be prepared j to act accordingly. We have always hitherto j underrated the task tefoie u ; we "have never ; been sullh-.ctdlv in earnest; we have never veti put in operation but a fraction of the tremendous , energies in our possession. j Perhaps it will awake the masse when they , learn that to d iy our armies are precisely where j they were one year ago; that we are just as near i Richmond, but not a step nearer ; and that now ! as then the rebel column menace the National J Capital, at a distance so sh -rt th it we can heir the ; sound of their bugles. There is not one moment ! for delay or hesitation. Washington is Invested. Cincinnati. Louisville, and Philadelphia are . threatened by no weik or undecided foe. If we j do uot cird en our atrnor to roll back this tide of j invasion, the h'rdt of the south will sweep over ' our fair and prosperous north, leaving ev ery where in their lootste.s a desert. i What will be done next bv ttie rebel array be I fore Washington is a matter of much speculation. J fl't.i . t mi , .i a. - j v iieiiirr tney win pusii nor in ward tnrougti aJlry-: ! land, subsisting upon the country, or whether j j they will make a dah upon the city itself, i dis-! I cussed on all side as bein, in the one case or ! the other, a matter of likelihood. It i not like j j ly that we shall l-e long iu doubt. ! j The woun led are mostly in. and are located ; j either at Alexandria or here. One ot the most ; painful facts connected with the orerations td ' lat week is. that we have been unable to bring ! oil all our wounded, arrd Sund y, under a ti.ig of : truce, our men suecceied in getting a few; but : j perh a r five hundrol of our gallant fellows hive 1 been .'eft where they fell, unatter.de! by either friend or foe Friends at home will rot feel com-f.-rtable as they rtdect that relatives have been I left on the battle field to die by slow inches, ex- j j posed to thirst, the hot sun, storms and st rva- J : tion. Such inhumanity is intolerable, and those j ; through whose inefficiency it occurs should be 1 , held to a strict account. j It will not be an overestimate to place our! losses last week from 2PIM(1 to 3d .000, many of j J whom are prisoners. It is very difficult to get at j the facts.

Howe, of the 1st Missouri regiment, informs us that on the 21 instant two regiment, one from Kentucky and the other from It.diana, rebellei at Itienzi,Mis.( and started South with their arms. Four regiments of Wisconsin troops were sent to intercept them, when a fight ensued, lasting Irom Saturday morning until nicht. The Kentuckians and Indianians drove the Wisconsin regiment six mile in the direction of Coriuth. At sundown the Federals were reinforcel by two lil.nois regiments, who came in the rearof the rebel and compelled them to surrender. They

were arrested and sent to Chicago. An eye witness who walked over the field say he counted three hundred and fifty-three killed, and another, who spent more time, .ays he counted over six hundred dead. From the Charleston Courier, August 27. THE REACTION IX M.W 10KK. A gentleman who has arrived at hi home in the South, after a sojourn of about six weeks in New Vork having been taken with a captured vessel in attempting to run the blockade say the reaction for peace is making swift though silent progress. Meeting of secret organizations and parties were held nishtly. One of the parties, said to compre a very large number of the most influential citizens, have put lorth the following remarkable proposition for a termination ot the war: 1. A cessation of all hostilities or armistice. 2. Each party to pay it own debts. 3. The resignation or deposition of Abraham Lincoln, and a new election in all the State for a new President. 4. All the rights of the South to be guaranteed by speed al amendments to the Constitution of the Union. 5. Failing in the above, a general convention to be held, and terms of separation agreed upon, with a treaty offensive and delensive. From the .New York World, Sept. 4. The Circuit Travervcd A Conservative Krpnblicnti I'aper on tlie.TIilitary Situation. We have traversed the entire circuit ot the military experiment into which the Administration was coerced by the radicals, and are brought back to the point where we were when their clamor agaiiiaSt (ien. MtCIellan first t-ct in. Event have demonstrated that the interference with his plan bus been a gigantic and most costly blunder. Since this foolhardy experiment was ventured on, the war has been one of the Moodiest in history; but th; heroic prodigality of life by our gallant soldier has been productive of no coriesponding advantage. The piemature advance of the army of the West (now universally admitted to have been an error) wa by the command of the President overruling the judgment of the then General-in Chief. The consequence is that the immediate fruit of that misdirected energy have been squandered. The preat and wealthy cities on the banks of the Ohio, never before in danger, ate now iu a state of active alarm, and arniie in tho Southwest are com pletely cut off from supplies and reinforcements. In the East, the strategy which overruled thatot the Ueneral-in-Chief bus been equally disastrous. The President was hounded on to order a prom t ture advance against Richmond; and ufici the plan of hi leading Oencral had been assented to and was already in progress of execution.it was abruptly interlered with, and st jnirtion of the troops withheld which wa deemed essential to its success. The reason for this interference was the apprehension of danger to the national capital; but iu point of fact, Washington has never been so lit tie excised to reoel attac ks us while (.ien. Mc Clellan's army was in the peninsula. Alter the terrible seven days' fighting before Richmond h:id compelled Ueneral McClelhm to in ike a change of bate, nr. active mid vigorous, though giscoii.t ding and superlatively impudent General was summoned from the West to take command of the army of Virginia, and make a separate ad vance on Richmond. Hi veiy tenia. kable ad dress to hi army on assuming command, disclosed both his amazing lack of circumspection, and the ideas of Lieu. McCie'Ian's strategy, with which he had been indoctrinated at the War De paitment. A nice sense of propriety would have been s.tisfie l with aeüng on such notions, tru-t-ing to result to v indie te their justice, without putting them in such a form that almost every sentence was an obvious and intended Hing at the more cautious and comprehensive strategy of the late General in Chief of the nimy. As this address contain the pithiest statement to be found in any public documentof the radical strategy a opposed to that of Gen. McClelhm. we insert 8tne of its most significant declarations. Our readers can judge of ther soundness, by seeing how they look when brought face to lace with their ripened fruit : - "1 am sure you long for an opportunity to win the distinction yn are capable of achieving. That opportunity I shall endeavor to give you. "Meantime I desire you to dismiss from your minds certain phrases which I am sorry to find much in vogue among vou. "I bear constantly of taking strong position and holding them of lines of rede it and of bases of supplies. Let us discard such ideas. "The strongest position a soldier idiould desire to occupy is one from which he can most easily advance against the enemy. "Let u study the prob thle line of retreat of our opponents, and leave our own to take care of themselves. "Let us look before us and not tiehind. "Success and glory are in the advance. "Disaster and shame lurk in the rear. "Let us act on this understanding, and it is safe to predict that your banners shall be inscribed with many a glorious deed, and that your names will be dear to your countrymen forever. "Jonv I'opr, "Major General Cjmm mding. " Thi was meant to be a ? atire on Gen. McCIel lau; read in the light of recent events it is a most terrible and scathing satire on the strategy of the w riter and on the rabid and purblind radicals of w hom he supposed himself to be the mouth piece. Disauter an 1 hame" h ive indeed "lurked in his rear;" they are the natural consequences of "dis carding such ideas' "lines of retreat and bases of fupplies." It is no wonder that when he thus publicly advertised to the enemy tint he would dispense with the most ordinary military precautions, that lie would "look before and U )t behind." they were piompt to protit by this oppor tune inlormation, and to them most vain tb'e strategy, and put themselves directly in his rear. Not once, not tice, but thiee several limes they have rejeated this bold maneuver of getting iu his rear; the last time on Monday night, when they captured an ammunition train, and killed the brave (ien. Kearney and Gen. Sievens, who rushed to nit attempted rescue. No wonder that the Tresident has come to the conclusion th t the country has had enough of this sort of strategy, and ha? reinstated General McCieUan in so'e command of the forces operating in Virginia. It the plans of thvt General had not been interfered with, the rebellion would long before now have been hop-e!essly crushed. As it is, wj are incalculably worse off than when the crazy cl imr ag i.ust him began to take body nnd gather strength.
