Vast armies will be forme! und bloodjr battle fought. And alter deolatin their couutry with alt the horrors of civil war, the guiltv urtirori will hive to bend their necks to the iron yoke of some atern usurper, and like beasts of burden to drag unpitied those galling chains which they bare riveted upon themselves forever. The people of the United States will, we confidently hope, long continue to resist II usurpers, whether they come in the disguise of Presidents, Cabinet Ministers, insane members of Congress, or military tyrants. While the billot box and a free pre-s are vouchsafed to the citizen they will tike care that the "iron joke" shall not be fastened upon their net-ks. 1 be events of the last few weeks have shown that the frantic tricks of demagogues and the usurped power of those in authority must bave a sreedr end. The vox poptili has bren beard throughout the land. Will our rulers heed that Tuiee? C.ot i:ark. Our distinguished Governor has returned Irom Washington ladtn with news. Iiis firt occupa tion was to prepare a Thanksgiving proclamalion and the next to unlo?-om himself of pert up Utic. We are happy to notice that His Eace!- J lencv feels some occasion fur thankfulness in the ! recent ex preNit n .f popul.ir .entiuieut through i the ballot btx, and he aks the people to pray for ! the continued success of the god ciue. Ina speeth from the b.ilcony of the Hates' Haie la.t evening, the Governor said he had j new from the north, and the south, from the i eat and the west, and he was happy to imnounce, upon the ry bet ot authority, that the great and wicked rebellion would soon collapse. It was, in his opiuioti and iu the opiniou of Mr. Lincoln, and in the opinion of other diMinguithed gentlemen like thennel es, about st m ed out. The rebels, he said, were i. early out of food, out of frhott. out of clothes, out of huts, out of blankets, out of tents, and various other outs, and he predicted their iiecesMiie for those Tery necessary necessaries would very shortly compel then to yield to the determined spirit of! the North, which, he announced, had jut been i fairly aroused. The Mississippi river, Hi Excel lency remarked, would eoon be under our con trol, and its possession would cut off from the i rebels the principal source for their supply of i beef, and our iron clad navy, which was nearly j ready for duty, would, iu a brief period, nut only j capture their prominent seaports, but effectually; hut them out from all communication with the , outside worlJ, IHlilaii like, shewing them of all their trei.tb. Ol iour?e Um Exctotncy could, not tell usatl he knew, or inform uof all the fact and circumstance upon wbkh he predicated tbe ' opinion that soon, very soon, peice would smile over victoriou?! and likewise a conquered eo- : pie. but we must accept his declaration as author-! itat:e, tflicial, and as drmed from the very bot i aud most tenable pources. No wonder, under 1 such hopef ul prospects, that the Governor felt in-1 coned to appoint a Thanksgiving, and, with a; liberality ol entiment which doea credit to bis j bead, bi heart, and the balance of his body, ?e .

The war has uragged on for a jear and a half. The country has given the Government over a million of men, and all the money they could posibly ue; yet we have made scarcely any progress toward crushing the rebellion. The rebel armies still menace the capital. Their ptivateers defy our navy and spread increasing terror among our peiccful trader on the seas.

A Curd. In&iaxa Arsknal. November 13, 1J-G2. J. J. Bingham. 1q , Editor or tuk StMtHfl Sir: 1 notice an article in your paper of this date, copied from the (ioshen Democrat, in which it is charged that in the saleot n lot of l and to the (Joverninent, on which to erect an U. Is. Arsenal, I "pocketed the nice little auci of seventeen thousand dollars." This statement is wholly untrue. I am nt a loss to know what motive could induce any one to make a representation o utterly unfounded. I never bad anything, in any manner, form or share, to do with anv sale of land to the Government. I never "pocketed," directly or indirectly, a single dollar or cent, as a commission or bonus on the purchase of :t build. ng lotas charged, and neier eiect to prolit one cent by any such transaction. In audition, I urn able to state on the very bet Authority, that the Oovernment hat nut made a purchmr of ground, as sta'ed, for the new Aren;i! iti this city. I am, sir, very respectfully yours, II. Stikm. Captain, Chief of Ordnance for Indiana. It gives us gieat pleasure to let Capt. Stukm pet himseif right on the land peculation. While explaining hi position upon one point it will not be ami if heelucidites another. It is said that he deducts from the piv of the voung ladies emar C7 ploied iu his institution a certain percentage weekly for some patriotic purpose. Is this a vol untary or a forced contribution from his fair em ployees. who are laboring with great diligence to support families whose fathers and brothers are fighting under the Hag of the Union, und whose wants ihe GouTiimt'iit should provide fur? It is not right to place the.-e additional burdens u;ou the families of soldiers. Is it, Ciptaiu Sti um? Condition of Weilern Farmer. Western papers complain bitterly of the hardships to which farmers are subject, from the low price obtained for most kinds of produce, notwithstanding the depreciation of paper currency as compared with former years, and the enhanced cost of all they consume. After giving a table showing prices now and two yeur ago, the St. Louis Republican says: The above, w hich exhibits actual price in lGd and lcGl, comparing articles of farm pioduce with those of the farmer ' consumption, shows some interesting facts. It shows that with the exception of three articles, the great bulk of what is raised on the farm has, within two years, loweted from 3ö to 70 j.er cent., or an average of 43 per tent. On oats, which is high on ac count of a short crop, on rye, of which but little is raised, and on barley, of whi. b the product is greatly less than of corn and wheat, thete is an average rise of 20 rer cent. Allowing for this rise, the average per centage of loss 'is .'iti per cent. That is, for most ot the farm articles which are raised iu Illinois and Missouri, the farmer gets now only 64 cents w here he got two vers ago $1. While all the pioduce raised by five-sixths of the farmejs of Illinois and Missouri and Ihe same may be said of Iowa and Wisconsin has greatly fallen in price, all that they Consume has greatly ri-eu. Upon the articles above enumerated, the rise h is been from rive to 14! per cent The average rise is 77. That is the farmer pays a I i . i. . . . ... . ' J 9 ii inr iiiu io jears ago coi mm 5.1. Now, if his produce had risen in the same proportion, there would be nothing to say about the matter. Even had it stood still the case would not have been as hard as it i.-. But iu fact, while everything the fanner Ins to buy h is advanced, nearly everything he has to sell h is receded. Let us see, by h little attention to detail, how he lures. He get, we hive seen, Ci cents now where he got $1 a year ago. He pais .l 77 now where he paid $1 a year ago. The dilTerence then is $1 I'A against hun in every dollar of his exch uiges of what he pells lor what he buys This is, he must now piv 13 lor what cost him then .l. it he exch.mges. as o.' course he mu.t. us 010- i duce for goods. To illustrate the hardship: iyip pose the fai mer wanted to buy brown t-heeting I with coin two years ago, and wants to make the ,! same exchange now. Two years ago he could ; have paid for forty yards of that sheeting with 'seven bushels of com. To day he can not pay j lor it without giving nearly thirty bushels of i corn. We have gone all along on the supposition that the far mer received two years ago, and receives now, the whole price paid for his corn at the place of delivery in the great Western market. For j purposes ot comparison between the two periods. this supposition answers well en mch. But. in ; point ol fact, the firmer gets only .ibout a third ot this whole price, since the other two-thirds are chargeible with costs of c irrige. commissions and other incidental expenses. We therefore cordially concur in the sentiments ol our coi:lem;r.rv ot the I'rairit Farmer. We think that those who in inufacture tor far ruers' ue especially manutacturcis who hohl p iter.ts, and iu ordinary limes have mule large profit, and c-n still continue to nuke 1 ire po fcu without advancing tite r rates ought to :b-

There Mice w IkHI aixl a. depot, but when Geu. Hmdman and his pcr eh band came along here soie ro uths ago in pearch of Southern right, they buret these, leaving only two or three other houses. Whether Hmdman got his rights tr not I c in not say, but I presume not lor be is yet alive, but the eecejouynist whj own the town got theirs in prt, as others are getting them. This was intended as a binding place for thoe who wish to visit the celebrated Mammoth Cave, which is some miles hence am ng the hill, and is a rival of liell'a Tavern wbicb lies pome ten miles further south and about the ame distance from the cave. I think I wrote you from Glapgow that I had found a good boaidiug place there with a aimon purepece-sionist. He had takeu an oath of loyalty rather than go to Ca nip Chase, but he is wouderlully oppo:ed to the .roceediiigs of the Northern army and both the ciiiland military authority. Every evening pome of his sece-Ii neighbors would call in to cus and discuss Mr. Lincoln, Mr. öewanl, Henrv Ward Ueecher and Old Greeley. As Major Vohn was busy with bgores, I had the pleasure on our side all alone. 1 found them all jubilant over the result of the lute elections iu the North. They read ol big majorities and their big ejes fait ly danced with joy. Not to be impolitic or uuscriptural, I re joiced with them who rejoiced, and told them I was as glad as they, though for a uitftrent reason. They anticipating an immediate abandonment of the war and either a recognition of the Southern Coufedertcy or a jenitentiil invitation to the "way ward si.-ters" to return to all they ever enjoyed and all they should ask for. I as" pured them that it meant a more vigorous prosecutioi' of the war to the bitter end, and was a fur tunate atiair, as it would soon disabuse their inmdsns to the supposition that any considerable number of the Northern people were in sympathy with ;thtiu. They wcte much opposed to the siisj en.sion of the haben corpus; so was 1, for I wi-hed to suspend üic corpus without tlte habeas, and we all agreed iu abusing Mr. Lincoln's proclamation they because it was wiieoi.-,titn'.i n.l and in.. erathe, I because it did not include Kentucky and all the slave Spates und go in'.o operation nt once. Thus we spent several evenings. Whether their views were modified or confirmed I know not; mine were confirmed. Differing from most, I hae instMed from the first that there is little love for the Union in Ken tu'.ky. Whatever phow of Unionism there may be in some sections, it is plain that here there is none, cspeciJIy among the rich. They would not hate seceded as South Carolina did, and thev disapproved of her act, but now that the Cotton St itts have goue, the-e slaveholders wish to u0 with them. Their young men are mostly in the Southern army. Their hope of success is liieilv in recognition and intervention by Evirnpean powers, and the policy to be inaugurated bv the incoming Congress. " They can hold out, "they say, until that mcet9. There were two young ladies in the family who perform well ou the piano. This morning, alter having clo-ed our business and whiio waiting th'. stage, we requested 11 lew Southern sons. They were given eloquently and with an emphasis which would honor a better cause. The cn timeut of bitter hate of "Lincoln cut throats" and "Northern knaves" pervaded them, no Ie-s than stirring apjeals to the love of home, and wile, and mother, and Southern chivalry. It may be remenibt ted that w hen our returned ihn e months' men brought buk amo-ig their trophies from Western Virginia some Bibles which had teen presented to rebels by Suiidiv schools, with prayers for their succe.ss, while uianv sw in it a
matter ot oerisiuii, 1 wrote that it indicated a deep seated urjM)?e to sustain the lekiliim. not Oy (Kliticiuns merely, but by Iii: millions. These songs indicate the tame thing. Where sung and they are utig everv where thevekeateboth the uiiiid and tbe j;s-ions to hostility- to Hie North and devotion to the S-jutli. If so in Kentucky, which has molested Unionism, or nt the worst neutrality, how much more in the States which are in open rebellion. They will be hard to conquer, y et we can and must conquer them. Even if we should ultimately recognize the Con ledcracy, we must conquer tliem, or there will be roots of evil which will lead to perpetual war. No Northern mm can thiuk of bequeathing to his children such a legacy as that would be w hich would follow if we faded to overthrow their military power. Alter that is done, a wise statesmanship will recognize all the existing facts, and act as they may indicate. My opinion vn this subject i.-i not desired probably. I reserve it lor another time, onlv intimating" that I hold mvsell subject to no preconcerted policy, hut free to adopt that wtiich the logic ol events shall prove most consistent w ith sound ptatesm tnship. The Conlederacy may be acknowledged by us it will be by European jniwers within one hundred and twenty dajs, I am nre yet a ceaseless. war will wage, until, under some form of Government. all ot our old territory, and more too, shall constitute a nation of freemen. I hear from the newly organized Indiana Miii tary Agency at Louisville. It promises great success. The Agent, Dr. Wood, seems to have no personal or official dignity to supfsjrt. He does not lounge around the hotel merely to discuss jKjlitics and plan campaigns, but he is at his office early and late to g'ive information to 11 who apply as far as his limited opportunities have enabled him to learn the fa;.ts. In addition to giving information by letter and otherwise, he proposes to t ike charge of special remittances of clothing or money for the relief of Indiana .-Uk I le .1111 that the red tapeism w hich refused specific appropriations last year to specific regiment or indi viduals has been abandoned, and ' while the 1 liii 1 in 1 Sanitary Agency is expected to net iu concert in ce.ieral with the Western Branch of the United States Sanitary Committee, individuals a.id neighborhoods who desire to make specific appropriations to special regiments, companies or persons, will find through this Indiana Military Agency every facility that the number of employees will nfford. The surgeons of the several hospitals at Louisville have not only i . ....... .. . , J nintU a wn,uignes to anpronriale socks. dr.iwi. li.uiuel shirts and other articles as requested, but iiiey express oesne that sucli remittances be made. I again renew my suggestion that com forts arid blankets be 1 orwurded to the troops 011 private accouuts. Hundreds of men whose overcoats and blankets were taken from them by au thotity last ummer in Alabama, and professed! v shipped to Louisville for sale ktepiug, have been unable to tin J them, and they are now greatly in need.

Tl-RMLK, i Judge Advocate General.' j To d iy w e hear, though w e can only vouch for j the inriinsic probability of the rumor, that the exempt aliens detected and ancstcd in the attempt , to vote, have been by order of the Secretary ofi War liken to the nearest military station and j compelled to enlist. " hese otTenders deserve ron.ilt: n puishmeut of course, but w hat business has Mr. KenrfiVlv to re j-ort them lo the War Department, or what right lias the V.-r Depart meiit to indict thia excessive punishment upon them to intli -t anv puishtnent at ulli The olfeiise Is an olleuse against the Stale. nd ibis btate onlv. We h ive a statute which says: "Any person not duly qu.thfiVJ to vote under the laws of this. Slate -a ho shall k'iowinglv vote or tiller to vote at any general or special town er charter election shall be adjudged guilty- of a. ruisdemeauur and on conviction shall be imptisoned for it period not exceeding six months, at the discretion of 'the court beiore which the offense is tried. . And it sUll be the du ty d" the District 'Attorney in the county where the offense shall have been committed to adopt elleetual measures for the punishment of all perfous who, without being legally qualified, s!i ill vote or attempt to vote at any election in this Sine." Another clause mikes it the duty of the in-! spectoisof elections or constables, knowing or j believing that such offenses have been committed. 1 to inform the District Attorney thereof, whose; business it is to bring the guilty parties to trial. Why, then, doe Superintendent Kennedy run to the Secretary of War with th's business, in stead of lo the District Attorney'!' Mr. Stanton ha no more to do with it than with the height of of our hon-es or the color of our hits. Mr. Kennedy has begun, and Secretary Stanton has completed, an act of usurpation in remanding these persons, without conviction or trial, to iinpiisou merit under Federal authority. If it be aUo tiue that he has gone his length" and foiced the a! leged culprits into the army, the case is one de minding the prompt inserlerence of Governor! jloruau. How long, President Lincoln, how long? a i The Prince de Joinrille Prophesying i on Hie Kl'roclamalion." j The Prince Je Joinviiie has just published in the Palis Rtcuc eV Deuz Mondes an interesting ' as well us very remarkable paper on the subject of the o.impaign he recently made, with his two royal nephca s, by the side of Gen. McCiellan. At the close of the Prince's narrative occurs the following striking passage which we translate for j the edibcatiou of those who thought the rocia- t mation of the 22d of September would "help us i abroad:" "If the trnggle between the two sections now ! in arms should be prolonged, if the solution of their gr?at conflict hliouid be much further post- i por.eii, then evils of another character rnav ' spring from it. Urged on by the passions and the necessities of the struggle, the Federal Gov j eminent may proclaim tho abol.tion of slavery, and may even be impelled to employ a tcuible means of carrying on ihe war by arming the. slaves ngiu?t their masters. JSut such a nieas- j tire, (mit fiom it featuies oTviolence and bar- f b irity, would be of no profit to those who should j adopt it. It would lead to . in irrepressible divi-j sion in the bosoms of the Northern States, fur! more beneficial t'.ian injurious to the Secession! cause." j iSpooixil IS'otioe. l tf-ecifed time, tul or-ter! i,t hef.re the ejrjiritl:-n of tht titne 46c.i, Kill be ctjry&i te rejuLr ratn ftrthe 4-ime up to th e lime th'y ire or Irrrd out .
