Read it. ' Koldier Voting We have received eever.il communication, one now befoie u from :. soldier, propounding the inquiry whether Holdierd can vote, and whether any fteps have been taken to give them the opportunity to do . The same inuirie have been ad dree 1 to the otlicers of State. The Indian ipÜ4 Journal answered the-e inijuries a few weeks ago, and a it probably represented the opinion entertained by the State olüci.tU ujou the subject, we reproduce it a a repone to the injuries nude of u: t From lh In JIiio1m Journal. August 11, Soldii.esVctino. We have received and pub lihed several letters ?usj;etiiig that teps be taken tu aliuw the Mjlilierd Ironi thin State t: vote al the coming flection, and the otlicers of this Slate have received hundreds of a similar character. As an answer to all, we mav ay that in the opinion of the best lawyers of the Sute, no puch measure can be coristitutionall j adopted. The -J cect ion ol" the 'J I article of the State Constitution provides that all persons entitled to vote fhall "tote in the toicnship in which thry rrn'vlf." Soldiera in the field or in the camp can not comply with this provision, and as it is iu the Contitu tion the Legislature cm not ret it aside, nor the Executive make any order to evade it. Pennsylvania adopted nuch a measure last year, and the courts lecided it unconstitutional and net aside the vote ot the soldiers, thus putting out of otlice on e or two men who had got iu by very handsome majorities. The courts bore woulJ doubtless do so too, and we can't well fee how they could do otherwise. Resides, the introduction of partisan differences into the army, the canvassing tor candidates and the revival of old party feelings, is a measure of very questionable utility. All citizens of Indiana who volunteer or are otherwise engaged in the military service of the State or the iJnited States are entitled, in the language of the Constitution, to vote in the town rhip or precinct where they may reside, but they can only vote in the township or precinct where they resided at the lime they volunteered or otherwise entere! upon ?aid service. They can not acquire a residence iu any other township or precinct while a soldier in the service of the State or Federal Government by reason of having been stationed within the same. Neither can a .soldier, seaman or marine, in the army or navy of the United States, acquire m residence in the State, iu consequence of having been stationed within the sa.ne, and consequently no such sol dier, setman or marine has the right to vote. These are the constitutional provisions on the right of vo'.ing, and we state them so that there m iy be no misioprehension upon the subject and iu reply to the inquiries made of us in reference thereto. A t'nril. J.J. Hioiiam. Editor or Statk Sixti:l S.r: In our interview on yesterday in regard to an tdTersive editorial in the Srntintt of that date referring to my set I, you disclaimed all purjKe or intent whatever to do me any injutice, and expressed your desiie that I fhould mike my own statement iu regard to the alleged interview between Jes?e I). Urightand myself in the winter ot lJi7, Aic 1 care but precious little for your nttempt to disparage my talent or political course. Ot these the intelligent public will form its own judgment, iinintiuented by personal or juditical malignity. You täte one truth when vou say that in 157 I claimed to be "the fast friend of Joe. Wright," and you misht have added I still am. It will be remetubeied that in the winter of 1?ÖT, the Indiana Legislature wu called upon to elect two United States Senator A few days before the nominations were madeMr. Bright viited me at my seat in the Senate Chamber, and after some conversation, well knowing that 1 was an open and avowed friend of Gov. Wright, invited me to call at his room at the Palmer House, which I subsequently did. Mr. Hright was at the time a candidate for the full term of six years without a competitor. Gov. Wright and Col. Fitch were competitors for the vacancy of four years. Re tween Mr. Rright and myself there w:i no periKil ill will. My objections to him at that time were based unon his Calhoun svtuiuthie. At that time there w pi eat d inner of a rupture in the Democratic partv ot Indiana, growing out of the strife between the friends of Wright aid Kricht In the interview relerred to, as tliefiiei.il of Gov. Wright, I stated to ,le.e D. P.right that In my judgment the peace and harmony of the Democratic party in the State required the eltv tion of Wrignt aud Uriht s United States Sen ilors, and that as his (Wright's) fritnd. for the reasons above stated. I should vote for him. (BrigL-t) and that I thought Ins Ii lends ought to vote for Gov. Wright. Mr. Uright expressed himeif for Col. Fitch and a;tir.t Gov. Wright, because, he said, they eould not ov-operate as Senator. TAia i tkt ub:ance of pur mttrritw. I lett the loom with the sme purpose with which I entered, to harmonise the party hv the electien of Wright and Uright. Though l'.ruht was not tnv choice, he had at the time no opponent. Gov. Wright and John G. Davis both know that I was Wright's steadfast friend, and never consented to ote for Fitch until Gov. Wright poitive!v de dined the use of his name. I supposed thet e w as not an intelligent Republican in the Sute who ever doubted my unwaering upport of Gov. Wright. That 1 doerted Wright is unqualifiedly false. That I toted for Bright and Fi'ch is tiue. but never until there was noopposUig D?mcratic candidates. I did not then know that Bright would vote for the Lecompton Iraud, nr that he w ould ympaihie with the rebellion. Please do me the justice to publiU this card. I am, Davit S. GooniNu. October 3d. l-G'i. We certain! v have no wL-h, neither had we any intent iu the article referred to in the above card, to do it author inju-lice, therefore we give Lim pace to make his own stitement in regarJ to tL alleged interview with Jll D. Daioiir. The conversation which occurred then betaeen the parties we heard, for the reriwin we could not

He i -i.i.w u ti . i v colle.icue. He .ueeeeei in t!fetir his nornination. Hi triumph w complete. Mr. tiooiig Bay in Iii juogcient the ehctiun of WaicitT and Reicht was necessary, in fact it was requisite to secure the peiee and harmony of theDemocratic party in the State. But he voted for KatGiiT and Fitch, and for the former notwithstanding his "Calhov sympathies." Let us recall the hiitory cf that Senatorial contest. Weight was the opponent, the enemy of Bright. He said to his friends he waa a candi- j j due for the Senate, and it was that or nottnng. ile In Height have the track fw the long term j without opposition. In that he let down. He j then levame the competitor of Fitch, and in consMcration of the promise of a first class appointment" backed out from the race entirely. His failure was a disapointtnetit to the friends who had stood by him, for in the position of Senator they liad a right to suppose he could control a share of the appointments under the new Administration. Weight then worked for a Cabinet oppointmtiit. Uli letters to Henbt A. Wise, of Virginia, if they could be produced, would show how "zealously he 1-tborcd to become one of the constitutional adtiserjof Mr. Uichasax. Hi special fiiends expected he could procure that place, and the patronage it conferred, but he failed and they were again disappointed. A "first class ap point raent" was not a seat in the Cabinet. He then visited Washington to see what was the next best thing. He got a friend to look over the "Blue Book," ami ascertain what would be the most profitable appointment. The mission to Berlin was decided upon. After great effort he secured it, but it came by the grace of his enemy Bright, and without his consent and application for it he could not have got it. Upon these humiliating terms Wright accepted it. He looked out for himself alone, und left his "fast friends" in the cold. He wanted to name a mem ber of his family for Secretary. But in this he was snubbed by "Old Bice," and he was not even permitted to nominate one. No matter what the terms he was willing to take the place. Mr. Goow.ng says he did not know that Bright would vote for the Lecompton fraud, intimating that if he could have anticipated such an event he would not have voted for him. If that is an objection to Height, should it not be equally so to Wright Did the latter repudiate that "fraud?" It has been stated that the Minister to Rellin, the veritable Jok Wkigiit, in writing indorsed the Kansas policy of the Bichaxan Ad ministration, and we have never heard this state merit denied. He held oilicc under an Adminis tration that sustained the "Lecompton traud." If WmiiiiT sustained the Administration in that measure upon principle, what difference between him and Bright? If he indorsed it merely to retain his place, his hypocrisy and mendacity should be contemned by every honest man. But in either case, it appears that he has the unswerving support of Goodino. Jok. Wright return borne after a profitable four years,' sojourn in Europe. His first business is to charge disloyalty upon the party which heaped upon him all his political honors. He accepts an apointment to the Senateon condition that he shall oppose the action of that party. He becomes a no-party man an ardent admirer of Duiulas, whom he bad denounced in a letter to Wise as a demagoguo nnd dangerous man, when he was working for a place in Bcchaxan's Cabinet and trying to secure a Southern influence to aid hi in. Neither in the Senate or upon the stump has he ;i word of rebuke for the exclusive partisan civil appointments of an Administration professing no partyism. He has no denunciations of the frauds and reckless extravagance of the party in power, which John P. Halk, a Republican Senator, thus ch iracteii.ed: I believe ami declare it upon my responsibility as a Senttnr of the United States, that the liber ties of this country are in greater danger to-day from the coriuptious and profligacy practised in the various departments of this Government than they are from the open enemy in the field. Congress pas-es an act in the first place providing for the punishment of the public plunderers, and then another granting an indulgence to them for seven months, jet we hear no words of condemnation for the-e outrages of the party in power from this virtuous Joe. Wkigiit. But enough of the record. We leave the imagination of the leader to till up what lurther can be said UjHn the Mlitical cowardice, the obsequiousness to the administrations in ower, the rapid changes and the selfishness which has characterized the political action of Gov. Morton' appointee to the United States Senate for a few brief months. "Like master like man" David S. Goomso, in all thee tergiversations of the man he worship?, no matter whete he leads, follow s unwaveringly. He sees nothing iu all but political virtue and integrity to principle. Keen erception. Wright goes around denouncing the party as traitors whom he knows to be as high as the heaven is above the earth, in purity and patriotism, when compared with himsell.and his "fast friend" does likewise. Wright says he is a better Democrat than those who adhere to their party and the principles upon which it i based, and Goo dim; sat s ditto. We beg pardon for giv ing so much space to j men who are entitled to no such consideration. We allude not to them personally. Both may be the most virtuous of citizens in private life, but Ktlitically we regard them as "the ba-e-t nnd meanest of mankind " The sober second thought of the people, in its majesty and strength, will mo 1 1 overtake all such men who havesacritieed principle and nutdii ess for political preferment. and ätik them into merited oblivion.

Our Armr ('orrepondeiifeFrom the Clmpluin of the lnt lrili (35tli) It eminent Inilittim Vol mi leer. Louisville, Ky., Sept. 30, 1G2. Mr. Editor: After a long and weary inarch of nearly three hundred miles, from Southern Tennessee, we arrived in this city in good health and spirits, although subjected, in our marct , to almost every inconvenience. Our regiment came here in one of the advance (General Crittenden's) divisions of General Buell's army. We are attached to the 23d brigade, commanded by Col. Stanley Matthews, acting Brigadier-General. I do not intend to write you concerning our dusty in arch, witn less than halt rations of food, and stagnant pond water, kc; nor do I intend to contradict the false statements of some "seeesh," that General Duell's army retreated before the rebel army into Kentucky; for those who retreat are generally in the advance, but we were in the rear of the enemy. Of all these items you are, no doubt, well aware from various sources. But there are other misapprehensions and misstatements w hich I w ish to correct, in justice to the parties concerned. 1 siy "in justice," tor justice requires that the guilty should be punished, and that the innocent should be known and freed from undeserved censure. But when the following accusations are contradicted by one who has personal knowledge of their falsity, the would be slanderers must fitl punished, and the foul gar ment of misrepresentation must fall from the shoulders, of the slandered, to be trodden under foot bv the just and generous public. The slandered is J. C Walker, late Colonel of the 1st Irish, 35th regiment Indiana Volunteers-; the storniert rs are unknown to me, and I hope will remain so. It has been widely circulated throughout Indiana by some person or persons that Colonel Walker was so ami-Irish and anti-Catholic a.s to endeavor, 1st, To get rid of all the Irish officers of the regiment, by causing them to bo cited belore a military board of examiners und other underhand me his; 2d, '1 hat he went so far in his hatred to Catholicity as to prevent me from attending to the spiritual w ants of the men, according to the rites ot the Catholic Church. Now, concerning the lt, from what I know personalty and on undoubted authority, I can safely say that Col. Walker caused to be cited only firo Lieutenants, and this at the request of their Captains. And what if he did caue all to be examined, if they, in his estimation, lacked the military knowledge necessary for their rank? as this not his duty as commander ot the regiment. But a to the 21, I simply say, that if one propsition can be more false than another, there can be none more false than this accusation, since the very contrary is the truth, so far as the difference between the words prertnt and pewit can make it. And instead oi showing a disposition to jirrcent, he manifested, at all times, by his words and actions, a desire to advance the spiritutl good of the legiment. He even left the appointment of the time for divine service on Sundays to my choice, and took care, so far as the duties of his ollice would urniit, that no unnecessary duty would prevent the men from complying with their religious duties; for he saw and acknowledged that the best Christians were the best and most obedient soldiers.- The members, both officers and privates, of the regiment understood all this bi tter than 1 can make it known to you by word-, and hence the depth of their love for him. It is this, together with the perfect manner in which he discharged his various duties as an officer and a gentleman, that caused the commissioned officers of the regiment, on the dth of July 1 ist. at Fayetteulle, Tennessee, to pieent their Colonel w ith a splendid sword and uniform costing nearly tiro huudrtd collars, which sum they put together out of their own pockets in about tno hours. I w ill ay nothing of the affecting set ne that I witnessed at the presentation of these shining articles, when all the commi-sioned offwer ot the regiment, fearing to loe the nrigic of the birthday uf the nation they were in arms to defend, forme! like a half moon, before the bed of their convalescent Colonel, who was then recovering from a severe attack of lever, but h id sufficient strength to receive them in a half sitting posture. Imagine this picture, and befoie the presentation speech commence-, with the pencil of vour imag ination add to it the whole regiment with new I uniforms on, drawn up iu line on the street, in i front id' the house. Place this scenerv now on ftiA kt i 0 t( viiiip niprnnrv iir.l in : h' f ,Hu?e .j state, witl!

All this conv evs but a faint picture' ot what I witnessed. A'j 1 if, at any future time, i you wete to read this feeble description to any I olhcer ot' the Ö5t! then present, he would siv i that it brought to his miüd i ne uf the rao-t picasing scenes of his l.fe I fur one, .shall never for- j A fl,il f '.it took place on j tint occasion, and the presentation speeciun iud, hirvM lo be ,eilt JO vou, Mr. Editor, for ! publication, but almost continued nnrchesand, I an interrupted mull communication prevented. j I Col.

From urtington The Forrr$ McCUllan Crossing the Potomac An Attack to he Made on the RtLrl Army at J Winchester Sigel and lleintzelman to Assail i the Enemy in the Rear .1 Large Body of Troops at Fortress Monroe to March on Richmond via the Jamts River The Most Evtntful Period of I the War Cloe upon Us JfC, JfC Washington, Sept. 23. I telegraphed you last night that important movements would be likely to Uke place the present week, providing our forces av tiled themselves of all the opjKjrtunities now offered them. By the iixine attempt of the rebels to invade the free States, they hire placed themselves in a po sition which, to sav the least, is exceedingly pre carious. Driven from Maryland both by the; moral sense of the people of that State and tl e staggeting blows given them by McClellan's gal- j lant army, they now find themselves across the j 1 otomac, too much weakened to resume the offensive, aud too much demoralized to retreat. They would doubtless gladly avail themselves of the last named mode of escaping from their pres ent uimculties, were it not that the effect of a re-' treat upon an army and a people who a fortnight ago caleuJited confidently upon successfully j marching through the fiee States to the 1 ikes, j would oe too disastrous to be contemplated. Ac- j cordingly there is but one thing left them, and 1 that is to fortify v mchestcr, mass all their avail able force at that point, put On a bold front, and ' if attacked, m.ke the most de-perate fight possi- i IJ ik -it'll ft I . s. . , k .m a E. ..at m . I. al-H .nl. . ft , ble, w ith the hope that with the choice of positior and heavv fortifications they may be able to be it back McCiellan. In the meantime our armies are not idle. Pontoon bridges have been constructed across the Potomac, and already the forces of McClella i are crossing, nnd ere the week h is passed will be precipitated against the rebel forces and fortifications at W inchester. bester. At the same time the corps of; 1 Heinteiman, heavilv reinforced, will j Sigel um move from the vicinity of Washington, ai.d cut tin;; tl; rebel communication with Richmond, and falling upon the rear of Lee's army, will aid McClelltn in giving the rebel army what it has for more than a year badly needed here in the East a tremendous thrashing. Nor will this be likelv to be all of the scheme now projected by the Federal Covern ment. A force of some C'J.OUO men has been massed nt Fortress Monroe, which, assisted by our iron clad navy, will, at the same time fall upon the rebel tront and rear at Winchester, proceed up James river, wife out Fort Darling on their route, and bring up only when they hive possession of the rebel capital. Stich I believe to be the programme of this or the coming week, and, gigantic as. it seems, it is Hot beyond the reach of our resources. The war h is become now terribly in earnest, and it will be pushed with all the vigor and determination within our jtower. There is to be no more dallying, no more hesitation in aiding McCiellan, no more teuitoiizii!g or figuring for the next President, until the enemy lias been dealt a blow that will convince both them and the world that we are able to make our boast good that we will put down this most enormous and iniquitous rebellion. The imminence of foreign interference has convinced the radicals, who have been scheming to depose this or elevate that man, that the time it lias become necessary to lay aside their machinations, at least for the present, has arrived, and that now or never we shall deal the death blow to the rebellion. I claim no spirit of prophecy or intimacy with the plans or secret: of the Government, but yet I believe that the most eventful period of the war is close upon us, and that ere another month has rolled away the continent will tremble with a convulsion more fearful, bloody and decisive th:m anv which has rocked the Union since the earth quake of war spread outward from Fort Sumter. The result of this impending contest can not be doubted. If God lives, if national unity be anything, if treason be wiong, it there be auht sacred iu a cause that lias been :i thousand times baptized in the blood of our loyal sons, and that h is becu nude holy by the concerutii:g te ns of bereaved households without number, we must succeed. But we can not succeed without a sacrifice, from whose contemplation the soul shrinks with trembling dread. The rebels are desperate the masses of them believe their cause to be just, and they will iiht as will men who believe in the sac redness of their mis-ion. Men who lor months hive fought and traveled b ire footed and shirtless who nos-ess the pte-tige gained upon the soil of Virginia, will not, now they are at bay, fight with le-:s than infinite de-pcratinn. It may be unwise to anticipate, but after these, three movements have been eonsumm ited, we may be induced to listen to tho-e terms of peace which Foote, the rebel legislator, projo-ed so kimllv to offer us. With the rebel nrm v scattered nnd Richmond in our possession, wecould at least a (fon 1 to be as magnanimous as were the rebels after their trifling success tit Bull Run; as the more jiowerful people and the victors we can better than they condescend to projtnse terms of peace. With our armies in possession of Virginia we will be in a possession to receive the submission of those who. with the fall of their capital, must know that their cau-e is hopeless and that nothing remains to them but to return to the Union and thus save their entire country from being overrun anil devastated by our victorious troops', and save also their "chattels" which, bv the proelam ition of the President, will soon become free. But perhaps it will be as well not to count our chickens before they are hatched. Yet such rose ite resists do not seem chimerical or improbable The fighting spirit of our troops was never better than it is to day. The battle of Antiet im was a fair test of the fighting qualities and generalship of the two belligerents. The respective forces were about ejual in number, a id if the rebels had the benefit of ftositiou, we had the moral advantage of being the attacking party. It was as near an even match as to ti.e and weight a could well have he'en arranged, and the result demonstrated conclusively that the fichting superiority was on our side. Hence, when I talk of the fill of Bi'-hmond and the pee lv submission of the rebellious South, it is not the utter nice of illogical conclusions, I ut fair and probable deductions from clearly established data.

Mr. Clarke You could not quite come it. j Mr. D nigl as I could not ijuite otne it, and j vou see the corseouences. Seven States are cut J of the Union, civil wr is impending over you, commerce is interrupted, confidence destroyed, the country coinc b pieces, just because I could tot defeat youl No nnu in America believer I these consequences, wouid have resulted if I had been successful in my effoit to defeat you.
