By reference to the telegraphic columns it will be noticed that Gen Jrrr. C. I)avi, of this State, ahnt and ktllcvi Gen. William Nilkox, at the Gait Hou'e, in Louiviil, veaterdav. Both public and private di-p.itchc rtate that the act was justifiable. We hac been huwn a dispatch from a dUtinuUhed citizen of Louisville to that eflect, whoe opinion we bell re to be expren.-ed without prejudice or ul.n. The difficulty aroe from Home abusive remarks by (Jen. Nelson upon relieving (Jen. Davi from Iii eonim nd at Louisrille, and which, it is said, culminated in peraoual indignities from the former upon the latter, at the time of the affray, to which no hih spirited man would jbrnit. Public eeiitimenl and ympath are decidedly with Davis. The comp! int aairi't the deceased for tyranuical conduct, vulgar language and abusive treatment agiint totfi pnbordinate otlicer and privates have been very general. Fur thefe reasons hl. untimely end excites but little jrupith or regret from thoe who have been in the eervice under him. Whatever may have been his faults or error, (oerl Nelhm'b personal courage was undoubted and he displayed gall antry in the field, a daring, which won from even tho.-e who disliked him their hihet admiration and praise. If reports be true. General Xelhox is the victim of hi own indiscretions, his overbearing disposition aiivl violcucs of temper. Thoe who are acijuaiLtel with General Davih know bim to be cool, determined and brave, and his friends will be unwil ling to believe that he had not ample provocation for the punishmeot he inflicted upon his adversary. But in whttever light we view it, it is an unfortunate a flair. The TIantxoniprr Conwtitu (Ion. The Journal in i: apology for the President's emancipation proclamation, which appeared in that print of Saturday last, justifies that act of Mr. Liscolx. because cobody "ever heard the Sentinel denounce the Montgomery Constitution." This is certainlj a singular re.tion for approving the proclamation. We can not fee what bearing our opinion, or the opinion of anybody as to the character of that instrument, can have upon the merits of the r,ew emancipation policy of the Pruaident. The Montgomery Constitution may be a perfect chart ol government, or it may be very defective, but In either one case or the other we cu not imagine in what way either opinion involves or affects the constitutionality or policy of Mr. Lincoln's abolition scheme. If denunciations of the Montgomery Constitution is evidence ot loyalty, is not the fidelity of the Journal luoie than jnetiouable? Whoever bard the Journal denounce the Montgomery Constitution? Nobody." Hence it must be a disloyal sheet, according to its own standard of judgment. But the J or mal, on the contrary, expressly and with great earnestness prouounced lheMoutgoruejy Constitution "an. improvement upon ours." In evidence thereof we extract the following from that print, dated March 2J, 161. aays the Journal : We have read it (the Constitution of the slave Confederacy; careluily, and must confess tli.it, except its pevi.it provisions in reginl to slavery, it is about as good a charter oi government a could hive beeu devised. Probably this excellence is due to the fact that in ail important re rpects it is a copy of the one the Confederacy has just repudiated, though Improved in a few points which experience has shoan tobe imperfect iu oura." After enumerating a number of those amendments the Journal adds: In all these particulars the Southern Constitution is an improvement on ours. Is not that a decidedly trong endorsement of the rebel Constitution? The Journal says the Southern Constitution is a better chart of government than the old Constitution of Washington. If the Sentinel unedin not denouncing the Montgomery Constitution, how infamous or criminal oust the Journal be for pronouncing it an improve merit uu our in fct aa bein "as good a charter of government as could be devi?ed." Z&-la a latenumberof the Springfield (Mass.)

The London The Sorthern Stalc$ Altmptinj the Destruction of Unylund The Western States "Sacriictd to tue Stljish and Sarrow Valley of the Hast." While the Northern States of America have been working so steadilv and o fuccessfullv nt their own destruction, they have, aa becomes men of large views and cosmopolitan sympathies, found time amon puch absorbing occupations to compass and imagine the destruc tion of England also. So rooii as tlie North found itself actual I v m in possession of an urmy of several hundred thousand men, iia iJe is ovcile.iped at a single bouud the little matter that was before them the subjugation of the Southern States, w ith their deadly thm-ite anil their brave (opulatioii and pounces at once with eaer voracity upon tne delicious prospects ol the !u! juration of Canada. No sooner hid thcr succetsieil in making an iron ship which promised to be uu etlicitnt weapon of war, than the whole continent raig with prophecies of the havoc that future Mon'tors were to niako in the doomed navy of Ureal Britain. The very first uje that Congress made of the majority acquired by the Republican partv through the ce cesaioti of the Southern members, was to pass a prohibitory tariff leveled at the trade and commerce of Great Uritain. We have alwavs regard ed this measure as uu injury. In America it is believed to Lenut merely injurious to Great Britain, but absolutely destructive. The way they reason is this: If we prohibit the importation of British manufactures into America, England will be obliged to pay for the corn winch t-he requires from the western States in specie. Sue wiif, by this process, be gradually drained of her specie, and will by this means be ruined. Thus, if we escape the perils by land and tea which are in store for us, we nre finally to fall by this fpleiulid magnetic contrivance, which is to extract from us all our gold and silver that is, according to the American, creed, ad our wealth just as surely as the loadstone rock drew the nails und bolts out of Sinbad's ship, or just as surely, if we may be pardoned the illustration, as Mr. Chase has contrived to extract the gold, silver, copper, and nickel out of the United States, and trans ferred them to the eastern side of the Atlantic. To ft European reader there is no great need to point out the causes which will happily prevent the conclusion so devoutly desired by onr American brethren. Uoi i and silver, we should have thought that America had learned by this lime, are, after all, articles of commerce, like anything els;. If we need the corn of the Western Slates, and if that corn is only to be procured by remittances of specie, we have, happily, abundance of commodities of our own production which we can readily exchange lor bullion to remit to the Western States. We have long driven such a trmie with China, and, so far frum being ruined by it, have done a very good business in that country. We need hardly observe, however, that it is not the same thing to prohibit merchandise from being pushed, through the custom house, and to keep it out of a country altogether. It m iv turn out that the operations of the smug gier may considerably alleviate the drain of the precious metals from England, and the principal eflect of the Morrill tariti may be that the West will be paid for their corn in bills drawn against English goods which have not paid duty to the Government of the United States. As loug at England has more to eell than other natins, she is not likely to be without gold und silver, especi tlly as she happens to be the entrepot from w hich the precious metals are distributed to the world. If she never impoited another bushel of coru from the United States, the would find plen ty rf candidates to supply her market, just as she j will, in a ear r two, have completely hited up the void created by thesudden withdrawal of the South. No roan and no country, not even the Unite! States themselves, can truly boast of security from the possibility of ruin, but, il England "is to fall, it will not "fall by tbe agency of the Morrill tarriff. We beg, in acknowledgment of the kind inten tions which this t triff manifests towards u, to offer a few observations, not on its effect on England, which we have already fcutheiently explained but on those Western States on whose destinies it will, no doubt, exercise the most mo mentous influence. We do r.ot stay to reason with the States of the Atlantic' seaboard, which conceive that they have a direct advantage in j excluding our manufactures and replacing them i by their own. But we would beg the Western : States those which lie along the great lakes or j in the ValUy of the Mississippi calmly to re ; view their own position and prospects if the civil '( war be allowed to proceed.

The Morrill tarilF was intended to levy a tribute on the We-t by excluding the competition of Kogl U DiaouJarturea. and thus forcing her to buv from New England and Pennsvlvatiia a worse art cie at u exhanted price. This is hid enough, hut the intention of the Merrill tariff was to do the West a vet more eerious injury. The hopeful plan for destruction of Greil Britain, which fwe explained above, contemplated, among other (things, depriving the West of the market of Eng- f I land by depriving England of the means of piying for it produce. Thi is tbe special injustice which is inflicted on he Wtern Statt s, and in order to perpetuate which they are called on for such enormous sacrifices The'r interests, as we J have shown, are, in an economical point of view, identical with those of manufacturing EnglacJ1 on the one hand, and the agricultural but not . yet corn growing South on the other. Every effort which the Western States nuke in this war is real-1 ly levelel against th e nisei i es The North fight i for the maintenance of a prohibitory tariff, that j I, far the power of levying a tribute for their

the sword U) support a state of thing-, of which they are called upon exclusively to benr the burden? All impediments thrown in the wav of trade mean a lower price for everything the West has to sell, and a higher price for everything the West has to buy. , I it not incredible that these mighty coramuIiities, whose wealth depends on '.be value of land, .which value in its turn depei ds on immigration, a a aa a snonld immolate them-elves to a policy wrncn, insieid of invitirg people into the country, is driving them by thoosands out of il? To shed totrents of blood, to undergo the ignomr of conacription, to pay the heaviest taxes and to have the Nrget expenditure in the world, are all hard enough even in the bet cause; but to bear all these things with the certainty that the only result cf success will be to clo-e the markets for such laboe, to render themselves- tributary to other States, is a degree of s-lf-devotion to which history affords no parallel. But the West fight, r.ot for expediency, but for honor; not for gain, but for the great and powerful Union and its gPjrious memories. Ala! of all the effects of this miserable war no one is so clear as that t has not only broken uthe Union, but has destroyed that which made the Union worth preserving. In free and democratic America no man is safe in expresvng, publcly or privately, what everybody knows to be the tiuth about public affairs. Domiciliary visits, midnight arrests without crime arid witnout accuser, are present to every man's mind. The press is fettered, the telegrtph is in the hands of Government and is made the means of fUe intelligence or anguinary denunciations. The Union is gone, and has carried away with it ti e freet' jni on which it was founded. He who advocates war advocates the continuance of this (date of things, the consolidation of a power only too likely to outlast the special circumstance which created it. Is that nation acting wisely which embraces ruin and slaughter for the present, in order to consolidate a Government of terror and repression for the future? Tlie Itebel Account of the ISattle of .tnlletunirvi o(;eneriilk 14.1 1 1 tl und Mx Wounded. ' The Petersburg Express of September 2.'ld says the Richmond Enquirer of yesteiday gives tlie following relative to the terrible battle fought at Sharpsburg, Maryland, on Wednesday last: We have received authentic particulars of the sanguinary battlo at Sharpsburg, ailuded to tl-e-. where, and concerning whi'-h so many painful rumors were uüoat on ye-terday. We have the gratification of being able to announce that the battle resulted in one of the most complete victories tint ha yet immortalized the Conleuerate arm. The ball was opened on Tuesday evening about C o'clock, all of our available force, about sixty thousand strong, commanded by Gen. Robert 11. Lee in person, and the enemy about one hundred and fifty thousand strong commanded by General Medelon in person, being engaged. The j-csi tion of our army w as upon a range of hills, f orm ing a semi circle, with the concave tovards the enemy; the latter occupying a less commanding position opposite their extreme right, resting up on a bight commanding our extreme left. The arrangement of our line was as follows: Gea. Jackson the extreme left, (Jen. Lungstitt't in the center. Gen. A. P. Hill on the extreme liht. The tight on Tuesday evening was kept up until Ü o'clock that night, when it subsided into spasmodic skirmishes along the line. Weinesday morning it was renewed by Gen. Jackson, and gnduallv became general. Both armies m;imtained their respective positions, and fought desperately throughout the entire day. During the bittle Sliiirpsburg was fired by tlie enemy's shells, and at one lime the enemy obtained a position which enabled them to pour a flanking tire upon a portion of our left wing, causing it to waver. At this moment Gen. Stalk, of Mississippi, who had command of General Jackson's division, galloncd to the front of his brigade, and seizing the standard, r illied them foiward. No sooner did he gallaut General throw himsclt in the van than four bullets pierced his body, aud he fell dead amidst his men. The erlect, instead of dis couraging tired them with determination and re venge, and they dashed forward, drove the enemy bajk. und kept them from the position during the test of the day. It being evident that the "Young Napoleon1," finding he could not force his way through tbe invincible ranks of our army in that direction, had determined upon a flank movement toward Harper's Ferry, aud thus obtain a position in our rear. General Lee, w ith ready foresight, anticipated the movement by drawing the main body of his army back on the southern side of the Potomac, at Shepherdstown, Virginia, whence he w ill, of course, project the necessary combinations tor again defeating hia' adversary. - The enemy's artillery was served with disas trous effect upon our gallant troops, but they replied from musket, howitzer and cannon with a rapidity and will that carried havoc amidt the opposing ranks. The battle w as one of the most severe that has been fought since the opening of the w ar. Many of our brave men fell. At dark the firing ceased, and in the morning (Thursday) our array was ready to lecommence the engage meiit. the enemy h ivii.g been forced back the evening before and the advantage of the battle being s:ill on our side. ' Firing was consequently opened upon the newposition suppose! to be held by the enemy, but no reply was obtained, aiid it was then discovered that he had disappearel entirely from the field, leaving many of his dead and wounded in our h inds, und about three hundred prisoners. The report current on yesterday that a truce occurred on Thursday for the burial of the de id was unfounded. The prisoners statel that their force was more than a hundrel thousand strong, f.nd that McCIellan commandel the nrmy in person. Our loss is estimated at five thousand in Killed, wounded and missing. The prisoners state tint their ranks were greatly decimated, from which we may infer that the enemy's loss was fully us great, if not greater than our own. Special Correspondence of ihe Chicago Tims The rmancipulioii Proclamation lloxv It I Itegurilednt tlie Capital The AbolitioniM Jubilant F.f feet ot the Proclamation South, und in the Itorder Mate Washington-, September 24. The subject that to day and yesterday has overshadow ed all others is the emancipation proclamation of Mr. Lincoln. In-the contetn plation of the stupendous consequences which must result from an attempt t- carry into practical effect the provisions of this gL'intic Abolr tion scheme, the victories of McCIellan ;ui J the startling development of the war at the West sink into absolute nothingness. Just at the pe riod when the superb generalship of McCIellan has shattered to atoms the ski'.lfully-laid plans of tl e rebels, and when their armies, deeiuj; into Yirr'itia, are ou the po nt of starvation on or.e side and annihiUti n on the other, Mr L'ncolu takes this fatal step. In isuin this proclatn itioti Mr. Lincoln virtually sais: "After au experiment of year and a half, I am convinced that the attempt to put down the rebellion by the iis'iai operations of military warfare his proved a failure. I will therefore abat.dou that uieaas of suppressing the rebellion for another. 1 will excite the slaves to servile insurrections ath )tr.e. while their masters are fighting us ia the teld." Dv issuing the proclamation of cmincipation, Mr. Lncoln has ttken that step which the radicals h ive teen sirivingto induce him to take ever since his inauguration; and he has now thrown himself irrevK.-sbly into their arm and taken his tni upon- their platform They re woreedisunionists thin Jeff. Davis and Wis fall. Tney have declare!, not any louder since Mr. Lincoln's inauguration than belcre, that there f hall be no more slave Sutes in this Union. although all their efforts, since that event, hoe been steaddv directed to accomplish that. reu!t. Ever siLce the war teran. the have declared that the Union hail never be restore! with Uve Sute ia it; that the idave Sutes were now out of the Union, and that no slave State should ever again be admitted into' the Union. They hive no accom f l.shed their purpose, so f.ir as it is in their power U do so. The Presadem. after struggling against them up to this time, has at lat given away helore the "pressure," ai.d has given them all tbey a-k of Aim. They brought on the war in order to abolish slavery; and. although they concealed their purpoe until the Northern people were to committed to the war that they could not draw back. n w, at 1-st, ihe mask is thrown off. No tane man cau r.v shut his eyes to the fact that the war is curried on by the present administra ton, not to restore the Uniou as il was, but to abolish slavery. There Is every reason to believe that the Administration has" about riven up all hope of avitsr Kentucky and Tennessee, juw! that they

will be !1 wed now to cst in their lot with the! South. a:d to follow the f rtunes of the other: Southern States. If the other Southern Sutes return to ti.c!r allegiance and return to the

Union, Kentucky and Tennes-ee will do so like- i wie, but not -therwis. The recent and present event in those States hare developed stich strong Southern proclivities, and so little Union feeling, that it is lei: to bw useless to treat them in any different ma-aer than auv other Southern Sute. While efforts will continue to be made, therefore, to tecapturp and hold the strategic points inj th oe Sides, it will be dt.e precisely as such efforts are made in Suih Carolina and Alibama. ; If there beany latent Union feeling still exist ' Ininany remo'e corner of any of the Southern ' States, this proclamation will cruh it out for ! ever. The Union men of the South, if there be j any, will see ia it the deliberately expressed in- j tention on the part of the Government to rob! tbera of their property to reiuce them ;o pov- . erty. It U the crueleit mockery to talk of com- j penaation. Every statesman, every man, who j understands the nnancial condition of the coun- j try, knows that it is as much in the pow er of Mr. j Lincoln to pall down the sun in heaven as it is to 1 make any compensation whatever to loyal men in the South who will be reduce! to penury and want by the operation of this proclam ition. It is idle to mppose. however, that it will hive any general effect, so fras slavery is concerned. It may cau insurrections in Maryland and Ken tucky, aud i' may reiuce to poverty many a widow aud many a true Union man iu tho-e States, who will look in vain to Mr. Lincoln for compensa tion. But its chief effect at present w ill be to ! unite the Southern and border Suites as one man. to carry on the wnr, and to resist t the utmost j Government which thus proclaim its purpose to j impoverish their people. The eflect of the proc j l unation will be, then, to earn ing on the war in-1 definitely, and to famish to the South additional means of doiu so to the extent ol tens of thou I sands of men from the border State Will it be believe) that the-re nre pnople i in Washington whobeiieve that the President means j this proclamation as nothing more than one of , of his Western jokes? Such is the sober fact. ' The orgnn of that class, tlie Sofionul Inttlliqen- j ccr, yes, tie veritable, old, respectable, Whig! Salionul Inttltiyenctr, ays: "The President has j taken this method to convince the onh class of j persons likely to be pleased with the proclamation j of the utter f lUacy ol the hone the? have founl ed on it." Hut then it poes on to say. "0n any other theory than this, the proclamation ! opens ixituri too trtvu miaut, and fraught with' consequences too undet eloped, to udmit of calcu j lath.n." True every word ttue. For tho.'-e issues and tho-e consequences are nothing le-s than the speedy downfall of the Republic Aheidr the pillars that supjK.it the glorious fabiic of the American Union, iind that uphold the lernjüe of American ititutional libertv, are trembling at the tomh of the hands that ate undermining the !

Such is the motive had in view by the leaders of the opj)o.-ition in this county in making the proposition to divide the county ticket with the Democracy: They want to raise a little capital. Law rtnctbunjh Register. Tlie Proclamation. The Staats Ztitunq. a New York German paper, in discussing the President's emancijation proclamation, remarks: I'ractic illy does this proclamation not retch one iuch further towards solving the emancijiation question than the confiscation act of Coticresa: as t. principle, it is much more objectionable, tor it is not only regardless of individual rights, but it disregards the constitutional duetrine of the soveieignty of the States, it robs the State of the power to dispose of its own local institutions, and it susjends State rights, in order to reich tlie individual offender. The central executive power, which, now-n-days, is in the hands of the Commander in-Cliicf, then in the hands of a President, pretends that, by this interference in State rights, it intends to teach only individuals, inasmuch as it says not, that on the first of January those Sutes then in rebellion shall be dissolved, but that in such a Slate the slaves shall be fre'd. Rut whatever clause there may be in the President's proclamation, it is against the hnal people of all State nothing less than a breach of tru?t. It is the u-urpttion of a power for which the President does not find a justification in the Constitution, which he has sw orn to sT.pj.ort. Spirit and letter of the Con stitution are violated by this proclamation, the whole foundation of these States has been undermined by it the Government is on the road to rei olution. The Providence Post says that the netrro regiment of Rhode island, frequently referred to as lighting in the Revolutionary war. was a body of slaves fighting for and by the side of their masters MEDICAL.
