Kentucky. Look out for a ßit in Kentucky to day, tomorrow, the neit dij, or some daj thereafter. Be ill m after Biagg. O.K. An ray correspondent writes c from Washington: "I can't tell you now where 1 go it would be contraband. All right on the Potomac." VsMe tue I'nlon Ticket." One of the rebel Generals, upon paroling some of the Uniou soldier in Kentucky, told thena to "po home and vote the Republican ticket." Why? inquired one of the paroled soldiers. In reply the rebel officer stated that the only hope the South had for securing its independence was in the Republican purty maintaining its control of the Federal Government. His idea was this: Under certain contingencies t!ie Republicans would consent to a separation of the States. They would be willing to let the rebel States "go," if they could not succeed in subjugating theui and treeing their slaves. On the other hand, all the Democratic Contentions in the Northern States had taken decided and strong ground against the dissolution of the Union uuder any circumstances, and if the Democratic party was restored to power, it would adhere undeviatingly to a restoration of the Union. Fur these reasons the rebel desire the supremacy of the Republican purty in the Government, and ;!uy influenced the rebel General to advise the parole J Union soldiers to rote the "Union ticket." CST'Got. Audrew, of Mam., said in New York the other day that the Government should not bare a mm from his State until a change in the command of the army was etlected. So says the Boston Courier. Is not thai treason of the rankest kind? It is tated ujwn the streets, but we will not touch for its correctness, that Gov. Moarox has said that cot another soldier should leave Indiana unless some demands he has made upon the War Department are complied with. If this be true, is cot r-ucli a position rank disloyalty? If Governor Mouto.v has the riht to set up his will against the General Government, has not every other citizen equal authority to determine whether Le will obej the requisitions of the Government upon him, unless the war is conducted to meet his notions, and the Generals appointed whom he think should command our urnrcs? Are cot Governors Andrew and Morton earning out the extreme Southern State rights doctrine, which they have so earnestly condemned, and which is the straight pathway to secessionist!!? When the Governors of States attempt to coerce the Federal Government to pursue a policy they may dictate, assuming powers delegated to the United States Government by the States, it is as much an act ot rebellion as the refusal of the receding States to reorganize and yield to the National authority. One of Them. The Journal of yesterday, referring to those who favored a dissolution of the Union before the war began, says: Tint sentiment may have been rubbed out of them in the rouh contact of battle, but no mau who h it ever heul it should be trusted with any duty that afl'evts the life and power of the Government. That sentiment was he'd by the editor of the Journal and it adherents during the fall of 1-GO and the winter of ItrfrMJI. In evidence thereof we quote the following from that paper: rrutu th lixlianapofU Journal, Xovembet 13, 1C0 They know very we.

If South Carolina and her asaoeiates in tolly really want to leive the Union, they can p without a word of objection from any man north of Mason nnd Dixon's line. We do not bel'eve in relating any secession movement in the leat. On the 20th of August. 1M1 , four months after the fall of Sumter, the Journal said "it had tetn no rtaton to ehanqt the tirvi it advocated Jat Vinter." It was willing that the lir.e between ' the North and South should be jut where South 1 it dal "not believe in resisting any secession sentlment in the least." . ... jrmi . eon.ia.cni m one rrm. it , aays that no man who has ever favored a diso-1 lution of the Union should be trusted with any dutv that aflecu the life and honor of the Gov- .... ... ... . ! e-nmet;:. tor ibis reason the editor of that print I keeps out ot the army and studiously avoids' any duty that affects the life and power of the j Government.

A SArlglil) Tata I11II" ! The Journal thinks "that the t ew revenue bill tetore ti e Confederate Congress is a atinger." It takes one filth of all produce, profit and :c-1 come. Our disuuion neighbor say s if we would not think it impertiiteiit. it would like to ak us bow much better this tax bill is than the one we are "so contantIy Cenounciug." Tie Journal pronounced tie Montgomery Con.titution "about as good a chatter f government as could have been devUeJ," but "a weighty tax bill" appears to be one of its result. And in reply to its in- ' quiry we repoi.d that the tax bill of the Confederate Cuures alone concerns the eople who will be called upon to pay the tribute. It is their , butJnewi, not our. We care not whether it is j better or wore than ours. We hare no '
liced cn tfnng, bowerer, that the Republican -Oxiem and Administration s bt closely followed Use tegUJuion anJ policy of .the t! South. If the Confederate tax bill U more onerous than ours, that disparity will not continue
longer than the next session of Congress, U the' lYeJent does not anticipate its action by a"proc1 nit ion", to that effect. Think bukal.tCe. The Confederate treasury note system was ridiculed It the Republican, but ia a bort lime "military necessity," or Republican financiering, forced a similar policy, upon cs. Our Government baa carried it to a greater extreme than the Confedente. Weisuefive cent, teu cent, twentyfive cent and fifty cent shicplaster. They hare not yet got into so little a business. We ridiculed the Confederate conscription, and the Jourmal pronounced the rumor that we should resort to a draft a Democratic lie. Hsrdly was the ink dry upon the poper that the denial was printed upon before a draft on our part waj ordered. The rebels mass their troops and the cry goes op from tl.e Republican jws, Tir do we permit the Confederates to oat general us? Jtrr. Davis proclaims a fast and Liscolx follows suit. And ao we could go on almost indefinitely and illus träte bow closely the party in power follows the rebel lead. And to all our accommodating Republican central organ shouts amen. The Journal charges that we are eager to defeat the Federal tax bill in order that the Government mar be defeated without it, and that we are constantly denouncing it. Our neighbor, in these charges, draws strangely upon its imigin ation. We have never opposed a tax bill, but have ever maintained that it was a ceceesity to sustain the Government. We have, however, expressed the opinion that the tax law, was unequal and that it discriminated against the agricultural districts of the country. This would not luve been if the Republican members of Congress representing those districts had not permitted the shrewd and selfish Yankee Representatives to overreach them. And this much we say further, that if the war debt should ever be repudiated and the tax law repealed, the rery party which the Journal now represents, and who have made the public debt twite what it ought to be by their profligacy, will be the most strenuous advocates for repudiation and repeal. 3T"We have received "a card" from Darin S. Gooding, which he desires us to publish. We will give it a place on Monday, with some comments thereupon. Our Army Correspondence from L.oulvilie. LocisviLLE, October 2. To day has been sufficiently eventful with one phase ot at rm life to interest anv of your read era could they have looked in upou it. The movements of such an army are connected with a thousand incidents which do not occur in ordinary soldier life. Determined on an early start, I got up this morning about daylight intending to take a railroad breakfast and be off in quest of some Indiana regiments which were said to be about five miles off, whom the Paymasters were to visit today. My grief commenced at the dining-room door, w here Culfy met me rather indignantly with, 'What ycu want, saht" "A railroad breaklast, sir," said I. "Doi e quit pettin dem kind since de railroad don't run no more," was his reply, shutting the door very peremptorily in ny lace. I could do no better than to wait umtl common folks got up. Meanwhile, attempting to read the morning news in front of the hotel, 1 was made the uawilliug witness of sorrows which I could not relieve. 1 'benight trains had just arrived, burdened as the trains had been for a week with anxious fathers, mothers, wives and child ten to visit their loved ones whom they expected to meet here. "Can you tell me where the 93th Ohio Is, sir?" said a well dressed, delicatelady, lodding a beautiful little girl of about four ve.irs, to an otlicer on the pavement. "Gone out on the Uardstown road about ten miles, yesterday, and moving forward to-day," was the answer. "Is it possible?" w is all she replied, the tear started and she turned away to weep a sad disappointment, and procute a conveyance to follow. She wept no doubt, but she got no conveyance I am sure. She had hardly pt out of siht until a hale looking wo man with an honest Iiih face and I urn sure an Irish lienrt, asked the same question concerning another Ohio regiment and received substantially the same answer. "Oh, hivin! mon, and sure e're not trilling with a poor woman who has come to see my der husband it is. more 'an two hunhuudred miles?' "No, ma'am, the army moved yesterday, and is moving again to-day." "And couldu't Mr. Buell have waited a day or two, just? It's me?elf and his darlint bov heie, as he hasn't seen tor more ii a twelve month, that has come all this way for to see mv own Michael, the poor, dear man. Is he well, do you know? Come along, my boy, we can walk as far as that, and farther, to see him." All the forenoon 1 met with such at livery stables and at street corners, and later in the day I met some, five or six miles on the road, returning after an unsuccessful effort to procure conveyances, or to walk the required distance. Among these were a dozen or more men from Henry county, who had abandoned their pursuit after traveling two or three miles. Mv own tribulations had onlv begun when the dirkeyshut me out from the dining room. In thr course of time breakfast was announced, and hortly thereafter 1 began to hire a horse. It was only a beginning, for at every stable 1 met with the same answer ".No horse to lure; all engiged; wouldn't hire logo out of the city any ; ".' )ou deposit ll.e pr.ee of the l.urse V 1 1 s ten uic ltnvci ii mi iir Kr i r ai ifci 01 course 1 didn't de;osit the money, for the verv reason that Jack didu I e tt his supper, and of coun-e I got no livery hore. At last 1 remem bered that the city was under martial law, and that General Dumont wis in command of the citv: and 1 doubted not that if he should consider the welfare of the Union in jeopardy by my not getting a hore. he would impress one instantly, hence 1 called at his headqu irters and made known mv condition. "Rather short of hörne, Mr. U , but I will see what can be done," and noon he re(orted that one of his orderlies had a little pouy, not much of a riding horse, but the bc-t he could do, which I might h ive till night. if I would be ture to briny him back. I promised, and was roon ot. the pony, realizing tint Geneial Dumont is a good judge of hoicÜe-h, fur the thing could neither walk cor trot worth a cent. '1 he orderly had girded a spur on my riht foot, which 1 took to be a hint that it was a nee esry part of a ride; hence I attempted lo mend pony's gait by a gentle application thereof, but, the biuic!

It is well, occasionally, to recur to original l&udmarks to fee wbere we are drifting; and with that view we publish some extracts from the Declaration of Independence and from the Constitu tion of the United States: DECLARATION or IXPirEXDCSCI. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tytanny over thee States. He has affected to render the military indepen dent of, and superior lo the civil power. lie has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution and unacknowledged by our laws. ror depriving us.iu many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury. ror transporting us beyond sees to be tried for pretended otlences.

Art 1, Sec. 9. The privilege of the writ of babas corpus shall not bcfuspended, unless when ia cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it. Freedom of Speech.! boll tlon Device to Mipjirr It. We take the follow ing from the Metropolitan Record, Archbishop II ton ts's organ: It is a favorite dodge of some people now-a-days to endeavor to shut up a man who disagrees with them by accusing him of Secessionim. It U au ea-y wny of getting rid of an argument that one can not answer; it is far easier than conviuc ing an opponent in fact it is "as easy as lying." Uut is a man a Secessionist because he desires peace, or deprecates subjugation, or intimates a wish tli.it personal liberty was less restricted? Is hen Secessionist because be is not blind to the discrepancies in oflicial reports, or the short coiuiug of Government, the incompetency of a General, or the blunders of a statesman? Is be a Secessionist because he abhors the idea of con querors and conquered taking the place of fellow citizens in this republic, because he wishes for no such Union as that of Ireland with England, or Poland with Russia, on this broad continent? Is he a Secessionist because he is alive to the wick edness and absurdity of enslaving w hite men to set negioes free? Is a mm a Secessionist who does not believe our Government infallible, our army invincible and our resources illimitable? Is it Secessionism to hint that our Southern brethern are human beings still, that they have rights which it would be dangerous to disregard, and feelings it would be wise to take into ac count? Is it Secesiionisrn to admit that they are brave and wary, or to doubt that they are so destitute and desponding as it is the fashion to represent them? Is it Secessionist to shrink from taxation, to wUh that our Government was more frank in dealing with the people, more desirous in relieving them from the horrors of suspense, more chary ol interfering with the liberty of the press and freedom of speech, more economical of public money? Is it Secessionism to long with a longing of w hich these people have no conception, lor the reconstruction of the Union on the basis of the Constitution, on the good old guarantees that satisfied the men of 76? What better are we than they, or what better is the negro now than he was in their day, that he should be made a bone of contention between the sections, a wedge to split up the republic? Our Revolutionary Fathers never thought of leg islating negroes into equality with white men; tfieir sense ot right was no more shocked by their exclusion from political privileges than it was by the exctusiuu of the idiotic, and they were right, for if, in the case of the latter, inferiority of intellect is judged sufficient to place the individual below the level of the race, why is not the same cause sufficient lo place au inleiior race below the level of :i superior? Is belief in this, pecessionism? We think not, but we have heard men accused of sece siouism for less. Ii would be well, therefoie, to know what constitutes secessiomsm. It would be well to know if men are to be dubbed secessionists because they cannot think as Government thinks, or as every uidivliual olüccr of the Government, from the Secretary of State down to the lowest patrolman in a police district, thinks. For this is what we nie coming to. Meet abolitionists, or as they pieler to be called jut now, emancipationists, where you will, and presume to assert your right to think for youreil, to criticise with your lips what yuu condemn in your heart; ro ceed on the assumption that your right to differ Ironi them is as clear as their right is to differ from you; refu?e to accept their khv-so hs nn ar j tide of your political creed, and they discern at once that you area secessionist. In our opinion, it is not wise to bandy about such matters recklessly. Disloyalty to the Government should never be assumed, fur in a laud like ours, under a Government elected like ours, to say that the people tore disloyal is to suy that the Government is unworthy. Tlic llcvcrrna llce-cher on Injalty The Keveiend Ueecher, as is the wont iu these days of infidel priests, turned (iod's pulpit into a ptolitical huntings on lat babbith evening, and I tod the lambs of his thick the bread of life alter j this fashion: I "There ran be only tw o parties those who up- ! hold the rebels, and iho-e who stand by the Piesi- j dent. I know it is said the FiesiJeut is not the ; Government; that the Constitution is the (ovein-1 inent- What! a dead sheep-.-kiu prrclunent the) Cioveritmeiit. I .should think it was a very fit one : for some men that I Fee and hear sometimes, j What is government in our country? It is a body' of living in en, ordained by the people to admiuis- ! ter public affairs according to laws written in a) constitution. It is not a dry wiiting or book.; President Lincoln, his Cabinet, the he ids of the! Kxecutive Departments, aie the Uoicrnmcnt, and men have ot to take their choice whether they ! will go ngainst their Government or Hot." i If those doctrines were not a fair enunciation of j the creed of the Kepublic.in party aa at pie-ent I expounded bv it ttoüiical leaders, we should occupy no room ;u our columns with extracts from Beecher lor the purjo-c ol commenting on them. In the quotation made above we find in a narrow compass the pre-ent platform of AbolitiouUm. I First theie can be only twu parties, those who j uphold the icbcls. and thoe who staud by the j Prudent. If this is true now, it has always been j true of political parties in this country. It ts not averted that there ar only to pnrties.but therb can only be two parties. The impossibility ot ditfiring with the Piesident upon a question of constitutional riht or expediency without being : a traitor is here oitively and without tju ilitica-1 tion avowed. Mr. Beecher is a man of too much intelligence not to know that the statement which be wa making as a professed n.iai.ncr of Jeus, , ou the Lord's day. in a pulpit dedicated to the ervice of God, was not only a deliberate lie, but I a malicious slander upon an old an 1 honorable party, whose members had giveu as strong prools of loyalty as was possible lor men to manifest. He is not'a fool. He is a liar, and if w e have not aheadv proveu it, we will do o in a manner that j j hall be incontrovertible, and that will rup lyjus- j j lify the language we have Used iu denouncing ibis j j hy pax-nttcal slanderer in a manner that will sati is'fy reasonable men that those who echo the sen ! tinients and language of IJeecher lor partisan and i electioneering purposes are as malicious and false ' as he. Now to the p rools. 1 Turn the allegation of Feeder in whatever' direction you please, it is on tbe face of it an ab . : surdity, 'it means just this: There cannot be j I two Political parties in this country unless one of j ' them Is disloyal. The party which supports the ! President is the loyal party. Oh, profound and ; i logical Ueecher, where was your loyalty before j I the PieVide-nt issued bis emancipation proclaim-' tion? Wbere wan the loyalty of your boom friend i j Phillips, to whom you hae t.ffered your pulpit to j ' taculcate what jou know to be treason, if your '
doctrine is wrrect--whoa yon know to be the foe I of the Government whether Tour doctrine be cor-' rect or not? j Under this reionnr, there bn never 1 e?n a I party opped to an Adm;tiistrati n whose n em- j b"Ts were not tra'itois. There hi r.ever becu a j Presidential election wiihout one of the candi ,
dates was a traitor, and it was always the defeat-1 eu candidate, for the I resident is the Government, and tke Constitution is only a dead sheepskin parchment! Aside from all testimony, we tbiok Mr. Beecher' allegation is shown to be absurdly faW! Cut we now propose to introduce evidence. We ask those who are charging the Democratic party with disloyalty to point to a single resolution passed by any'assemlltge of Democrats in any township, county, or loyal State in this Uuion that denounces the Constitution. Dare Beecher as kr as much concealing the fanatics amng whom be is a chief? Not only this, but the Democracy in everv State convention have affirmed their unalterable attachment and loyalty to the Constitution, and expressed a determination to uphold it, and restore the Union, at every huird and every . cost. The assertion of tha object for which the i war was prosecuted at the commencement of the ' rebellion contained in the Crittenden resolutions, and indorsed by the Republican party and the President, has been maintained, without deviating one hair's breadth, by every State convention, and by every Democratic press, from the dy those resolutions were passed until now. Was the President loyal then in indorsing them, ! and is he disloyal now in rejecting them? We! do not charge it, but in the uame of all that is j sacred, we ask if we are to be denounced as traitors because he has changed? j Tbe sition of Beecher is proven absurd, and j nis ttiarge false, by the admissions of some ot the most influential journals of the Ivepublican party. They have admitted the imbecility of the present Cabinet and Congress, and boldly affirmed the necessity of party. The leading Republican paper in New ork. next to Greeley's, commended the action of the New York Democratic State Convention, and admitted the charges of Seymour to be "just." The allegation of Beecher is proven faUe by the presence of hundreds of thousands of Democrats in the army to-day, who ate opposed, not to the President, but to his proclamation. It is disproven by the corpses of tens of thousands of Democrats who have given their lives for their country by our graveyards and desolated hearth-stones by our entire past history and present declaration of principles. We submit the proof to the consideration of the country, and with it, we submit it we are not justified in branding those w no charge the Demo cratic patty with disloyalty as malignant liars. As for Beecher, let him impeich the evidence, or stund convicted. Chicago Times. l'rrvidrnt Lincoln's rroclnmnlion What they Nay in Canada. From the Montreal Gazette. We repeat, we can see that it will give an object to the war much mote definite than the pretence which has hitherto characterized it, undone which would excite foreign sympathy, if a clear way could be seen to the end. As we said, yesterday, we think une of its objects is to appeal to foreign sympathy on the question of lavery so as to prevent the recognition of the independence of the South by the great Powers of Europe. The fact of its app;earin s a three months' notice gives rise to this belief. We are also the mure inclined to question the motives which have prompted it because it comes from men who. at the bepniiinj; ol the contest, were to liberal iu their offers to slaveholder, liberal beyond the point of self iepecf, if they would only not secede. It comes just befqrc the fall elections, and must exercise a decisive influence upon them. It would app.eal more to foreign symputhies if it recognized cm mcipation hs a natural riht of man, instead ot a punishment for secession, while the protection of slavery is in the same breath oS'ered, as a reward for obedience to the Federal Constitution. Its effect on the South will no doubt be to embitter tlie war: to place before the eyes of the Southerner the alternative of extermination, possibly including the slaughter of the blacks, before he can permit Federal mici ess stimulated by thepromul,;atiou of such docfrir.es. From the Toronto Leader. The nation the great body of the people feels that the President has made a ftlse step; that he has been trifling with the public weal, he has pandered to the prejudices of a political sect, and consented to echo the shiboleth of the impracticable neuro-phobiasts of the Northern States, ilis whole previous course precludes the Fup(io.ition that he has entered upou the dangerous ground of radicalism from honest conviction. The morality of the matter is not open to doubt. The welfare of the slave did not enter into that mental argumentation which must have preceded the conclusion at which the President has arrived. It is only a few days go that he proclaimed in tbe face of the whole wo. Id that the Union was above every consideration of welfare for the uu fortunate negro. Could he carry out his "idea" he wo'ild not iree a single slave. These are his words Does he now expect that he will restore that Union by declaring the slaves free? Let his conversation with the Chicago delegation answer. Nay, rather does the proclamation cany with it dark foreboding, and a gloomy premonition of a divided territory and a dominant radicalism; and, mu hiip, in this ge.ieral demolition of the great structure, the President would be oble to show the strong claim which he possessed to the grati tude of thoe whose fanaticism he was the means of advancing. Freedom of Political Action. The New York World says: Grave apprehensions have arisen, within the lat day or two, of an attempt to stifle political discussion and uppress that perfect Ireedom of political action which the people of this country have always heretofore enjoyed, and wiihout which the form of popular elections would be a bitter mid degrading mocket v. It is incredible that we are in any such danger. It s incredible that the Government would meditate, or that a m wily and courageous people would for a finale day submit to anv abridgement of the freedom ot elections, or of the free canvassing necessarv for placing the (pie-lions in issue fairly before the pieople. The American people would dishonor their manhood and their line ige if they w eie capable of sup;o-ing the-e rights in serious dan ger. We all know, from sympathy with eich other, th it before these rights can be crushed among a people trained as we have been, eveiy street in our towns, and every valley and hillside cultivate! by our hardy yeomanry, would run wiih ihe blood of determined men. It is true ihere are some lew craven and some few passes among us possessing no proper sense of the inestimable value of this right. Thoe who would tolerate the suppression of ftce speech, even in a sel;tiotis fanatic like Wendell Phillip, ate not sufficiently in sympathy with the gic it American heart to understand that the right about whose infringement they talk with such flippancy can never be in any led danger in this cuuntiy. It is t.nly men of leeole eintrage and a feeble sense of justice that can have an nppre hension on this score. All other American titi zeus know that they will exerci-e this inalienab'e right.

The Sesrcher of all Lewis knows thai every pulsation of mine beats hijgh and strong in the cause ' of civil hberij. Wherever it is safe and pracli- i cab'e, I desire to see every portion of the bum m , ftmily in the enjoyment of it. But I preler the liberty of my own race to that of any other rare. 1 The liberty of the descendants of Africa iu the United Sutes i incompatible with the safety and , liberty of the Kuroan descendants. Their! slavery forms an exception, resulting from a stern and inexorable necewy, to ihe geueral liberty in the United St.tes. We did not originate, nor are we responsible for this necessity. Their lib erty, if it were jos;b!e. could only be etab lisiievl by violiting the incontestible powers of the States, and in subverting the Union. And bei.eath the ruins of the Unit. n would bebuiiel, ooner or later, tbe I.berty of both rates. High Taxis in WisTt&x Vug im.
