It m thce grosr inequalities in the conscription in New York which called forth th recent correspondence between GoTcrnorSETMOt t ind President Ltxcoljc, and it is not aurpriaicfr, in view of them, that the former in hi letter of Aupoat f, remarked to the latter, "Too (tb President) cannot and will not fail to right thea groes wroops." And is there co remed? for these outrages? It it to he expected that people will remain quiet with these evidences of the partisan character of the enroll' nent? Got. Sruroc most forcibly responds to the Treeident'e apology for tbee r,ro wrongs. He saja: You aar that "We are contending with an enem who, as tou understand, drives etery ablebodied man be can reach into the run ks, very much aa a hutcher drives bullocks into a alaushter pea." You will are? with me that even this, impartially done to all cla?se. is morn tolerable than any scheme wtich shall fraudulently force a portion of the comniuoi'y into the military service by a dihonest perversion of law. In thia connection we quote the comments of the New Yrk Herald ur.ou tho diecu-slon between Governor SiTMOta ar.l the President, which but eipreses the common sentiment of the country in regard to the odiouMies of force!

military service, such as m contemplated by the!

coDscript law; The hone of coutention is the conHcription art. Governor Seymour holds that it is unconstitutional. It is, however, constitution! eroujrh to route within the strict letter of the fundamental law; but is one of the most odiotia enactments that ever was passed in any countryfree or despotic a Uw that could not to day be pjssed in Fnglind, whence we have borrowed our laws and institutions which could not have been passed in that country for the last oi e hundred and fifty years. Not aince the diy. of ToJors and Pi an tagen els could auch an intolerable Uw have beeo carried in Parliament. The attempt to impose pimil r laws upon the English people re-ulted in the overthrow of the Stuart, and a series of terrible civil wars, which lasted for fifty year, rejulting at last in the triumph of liberty atiJ the overthrow of despotism. So fortiu Is the idea of a compulsory service in war to the genius of the Anglo-Saxon race, and the institutions which it has adopted, that there wag no word in the Earli.sb language which trignifies conscription, this term being an importation of recent date.

Tft Arsenal" and Shoddy Patriotlam Tbe court organ, eoine lime ago, stated that the arsenal was not a State irctitution. This it declared most positively. There is no act of tbe Legislature authorizing it. Tbe organ of ilia .Excellency, for bim, stated that, aa the Legisla ture bad failed to approve bis rcU la eitablMtiog atnd operating the arsenal, it therefore bid no connection whatever with tbe State Government. Wb it business, then, accepting the position taken by the court organ in behalf of the Governor that the. arsenal is not a State ibstilution, had a legislative committee to investigate its m:iLagement? It bad jast ns luuch right to investigate tl.e court orgau Cunp-iny'a aflaiis., (aaJ the committee would have found it like a whitened sepu!chur full of corruption.) or the bu-Mtas of tl.e Dates House Which horn of the lilemmt do the MonToxiTrs intend to take in regtrd to the iracual? At oo tt;no they the State his nothing to d- with it, nnd then that it is a State enterprise. If tbe Utter, why Is it not placed under the control of the State officers and by are ii.h the reports of it operations made to tbem? II w Exce.leucy hag bt be ralla a "financial bureau." Is that a Sute institution or is it a private atUir? Doe the arcual run through thnt mtchine? The court organ ays, referring to the Sentinel, that "The managemei.t of tht establishment (the areenal) i? mi!represeutel ai.d the integrity of its officers asjilid by cQiliciou lnireprcculation., Our aothoriry for making these tt.itementa is the court organ iUelf It si id that tie "powder kegs anj bullet mould.s" of that enablement were private propertf. and we in I e; red nececiurily that they were Governor Mobto.v's property. We have never aid a word derogatory to the mere business management of the arena1, but on the other h.ud have often referred In rcott complimentary terms to the skill and business sagacity of Col. Snrax and his associate We have said the same about tbe management of tbe Bates House, tbe Palmer IIou3e. the New Yori Store, Good's, Hume & LordV. and i hundred other business houses of the city. We hive congratulated a great many persons upon tbe successful results of their business sagacity and enterprise, but we never dreamed thit we were therefore assailing them by "malicious insinuations." We even spoke '.tindly of our neighbor, Mr. fctoioTi, who recently retired from the office of State Printer w ith $10.000 in cah to his credit la the bank, and that, too, after dividinc its profits with several other parties .as he informed ns. And in so doing, we were not so envious of what be regarded bis good foituce as to mali

c!ouly insiouste that it was the result of "hook-

ing" the quaai quires of the State paper, tretching matter," adding to tbe journals profitable matter contrary to law, and various other "peculations." as be pronounces them to

be himself, while Sute printer. Unfortunatelv ' for oörselves, we have not a dollar's interest in j the "new Sentinel building on Pearl street;" and ; after holding the office of Public Printer for at ! least double the time that Mr. lUaav R Sil-; oaovE did, we have no $10,00') to o ir credit inj bank, besides Urs amount of rmjfrtv laying j !ooe around.

"Plain and to tlte Faint." On the 25th of Jene last, over the signatureof J. C. WLXia, appeared a letter in the Sen'ine! defending his conduct as an officer cf the array. In that letter appeared the following iu reference to the editor of the Indimtpolis Daily Journal, Rraar R. St Loaora: "I have a few words to nay to the editor of the Journal, to whose malicious assaults the reader is indebted for this letter "Conceived" ns he was "in tin, and brought forth in iniquity," it is but natural that the emenations of hia brain should be as illegitimate as the offspring of his body. He is a fit perma to edit the oran of a hybrid party hia papr represents a P11 which has no parallel in history for the wickednefs of its designs, or the terrible consequences cf its acta. Let us hope that the editor of the Journal may become regenerate in his Utter day s, and use the intellect inherited through an irrfgu Ur pro c ens for the dirTusioo of truth it'siead of falsehood." We now use tbe words of tbe eaid Sclgiote as a fitting commentary upon the foregoing, and a-ik him to face the mu-ic: "The f4Cts and the inference here are rathtr unpleasant things to lace. We spare comment when there is only one thin to t said, and th.it is what everybody will sa.y. The Journal, in rooting around for party oipiul, his run its nout against a very unpleasant spike.

We received letters from the Draft Commiisioner for the Oih Cong.

He also requests us to give no tice to the people of their duty to send delegates to witness the drawing. In reply to these le'ter we addressed a letter to Mr. Belford. suggesting that a full and fair enrollment w an important element in a fair draft, and rerjuettinc th.t the original enrollment books for CNss county may be eent to J.

Conference of Hie ICeyubllcnn Leader at Washington The Washington dispatches to the New York Herald, under date of the 11th instant, contain the following comments in reference to an important confertuce of the Republican leaders about to be held at the national capital: A most important gathering of prominent Re publicans is about to be held in this city. Word has been sent to 11 the leaders of the party to meet in Washington ithin the coming week. The object of this sudden gathering of the cUts is o far a mystery. By ome it Is believed to hive reference to the draft, with a view to the withdrawal of an enforced conscription and the substitution of a voluntary call. The theory which obtains mosa credence. bowever, is, that news has been received from the South thnt the leiding ietel are willing to come back into the Union provided terms are offer ed them. There is every reason to believe that the whole Southern people, leaders and all, are hert ily ick of their war tor indejcndence. The rebel military power is tumbling to pieces. Facts which have come to the knowledge of General Hslleck and the War Department within the last two weeks, are of the most rearming character. It is known that tbe rebel armies are virtually demoralized, and in no part of the South can be held together. Dtrla would never have issued tbe frantic appoal to deserters to come back to their reg-ments were it not that the whole array was dissaving into its original elements The principal cause, of trouble with the troop is the fact that their waces in real money does rot amount to more thin one dolUr per month. With thi they are unable to provide ! themselves with even the smallest necesitiea of

the camp. All their hopes have failed. While! inrsding Mrvlnd and Pennsylvania thev lelt ; confident of being able t miintain themselves i in the enemy's country. But. rr.ee on the south ' side of the Potomac, alter having been be itcn at ' Gettysburg, the rebel army under Lee became i bope!e.sly disorganized. Owing to the difficul-I t:es of transportation at the South, bu few ofi the men in the army had seen their families since ! first they entered the rebel service With ail hope in the Confedeiacy gone, these men have unanimously determined to return to their homes, ; and the refusal of Lee to jrar.t furloughs has ' added to the wide spread discontent ot his troops, i Thi ute of affdrs has had its effect upon the re'! leaders, and it U reported that while thev stiil h.ve a show ot force, thev wiüh to make the lt terms powh! with the Federal Government. ' Hence the meeting of the friend of the Admin-' istralion to be held in the capiul withrn the com ing two week-J. It is idle at this time to peculate as to the action of this informal convention. A reson which will Le urged in Republican circles in favor of putting a stop to the sr, has been lound iu the treiaendons unpopularity of the roncrirtiou act. Its effect in every section of the North has been the sime it has thrown the hole population en mtsse against the Administration. The more shrewd and less fanatical of the Republican leaders ar-ue that were the Administration to close the war now, and put a stop to theconscriplion, it would secure a new letseof life and ppu-1 Uritj. The people would be grateful not onlv for the ending of the war and the rehabilitation : of the Union, but for tbe stoppage of the odious ' draft. Of course no terms will be considered ' satisfactory to the Republican leaders that involve any the slightest political strength to the insurrent States. It would never do for their parte objects to permit the South to form a Union with the Democratic party again to rule the cour.rrv. '

The Draft In "tear York. Governor Seymour's second letter to the President is brief but strong, and will produce a decided impression on the mind of the country. Mr. Lincoln bimeif can nut fail to be moved by it. With tremendous force the Governor reminds the President that driving men into a conscription, like "bullocks into a slaughter pen." which is the President's illustration of the Southern concription, I much more tolerable if it be uniform and impartial, than a scheme which should fraudulent!? forte only a portion of the community into the military service. The President has no desire to foster or aid in suth a schere This must be taken forersnted". He can not fil therefore to rejoice, io common with all lojs.1 and hör est citixens. at the exposure made by Governor Seymour of one of the pmnt attempts at fraud in polit'cal history. We hive sought to account for the great decrepancies in tbe enrollment by various means, such as the ae cidental enrolling of names twice, and the temporary increase of population in psrticuUr localities; but all the-e riv.ti f iil to s-tity the mind, now that we learn the extent to which the fraud hiab;en carried, and tbe astounding political discrimination which the accidents, it they are accidents, seem to poses. They are cert unlv a root remarkable class of accident, happening all on one side, and all in favor of the party to which the enrolling office m belong. It is plainly mjuifet that thee accidents are the reult ot manipulation by men who were o foolish as to forget that figures generally tell the truth, and that a fraud in numbers is very sure to be ultimately exposed. And we ate led on from the question how the discrepancies aro-e, to the next question, who is responsible for them? We heartily acquit tbe President of any knowledge of them Not so, however, his anxious friend here in New York. It is too plain for denial that some "gern mandcrinfc"ha made thee terrible differences in the enrollment. Look at the Sgures. Here they stand: rr.fe. Draft. 9 Wmtx-ratle District? I5li43 r3.73 19 Republican 457.J57 SÄ.6.Ö Who managed this? Who did this betutiftil trick, whereby the Democrats should be drafted and their vote not be materially affected? We have no hesitation in saying that the historv of

journalism h is riever fcfn Mich an exhibition of

guilty ripe and rn ilie at the eipo-one of wrong a- some of the New York radical papers are rn ik ing. They :ire in ec.-t acies of ancer, and wholly because ot the de ection of thin wickedness I there any doubt of their thnre in the gnilt? Doe.s any one know of the secret meetings of radical men here in New Yoik to nrrange all the-e thing? The President Ii is b en giosIv deeieved by his radical supporters in New York. Such men as Senator Morgan, Senator Hsrris, Mr. Weed, and others whom we might name, have had no resnonsibiiity or connection with this fraud. They have not been in the ring. Rut there is a class of radical partisans who have been at work, foolishly as they always work, and they have -truck their beads against a rockto wit Governor Seymour and their rage is but the open confession ol disappointment. On no other theory can any one explain the ferocity of the Tribune yesterday morning. It abused Governor Seymour iu columns of billingsgate fo: his exposure of the fraud. It dared not dent one statement of fact, but proceeded to pour out its hot furv on the Governor iu phrasea like the following, which we extract fiom the Tribune: "The Jeff. Divisites of oor city understood this from the outset. They foucht lor the same cause with Lee, and Rrngg, and Johnston, and Pcmberton, and like them were beaten, though t!u? "flank movement" of their Governor on Washington was aptly timed and vigorously made. Their weapons were diverge, but their course the same " Can this insanity of rage, wasting itself in such words, be accounted for on any theory except the recklessness of exposed criminality? Perhaps the intense beat ol the weather has made them mad in the ofSce of our contemporary. If so, judicious applications of ice, and other cooling processes, sprinkling the roof of the etabli-h ment, and carelul attention to diet, may bnn-r a return of reason. Wc mut either pity the nfflic tion. or fall back on tbe certainty thnt the rage of tbe past two weeks proceeds from the fact that Governor Seymour baa foiled thee men in a foul plot which they had concoctcl. without the know, ledge of the authorities at Washington, and in company with the same mea who have heretofore plotted the overthrow of Mr. Liu'coln as Pre ident.

Gen. rrnnk lllalr 1'lunta Himself Cpon tlie Democratic l'littform lie I nion as It Vn." Gen. Frasr; P. Rlair, jr., on his return from Vickbburg, was seremded, when he made a speech, which is pronounced the greate.-t effort of hia life. He denounced the radical Abiitionists of Missouri for their conduct in factiously opposing the ordinance of emancipation passed by the State Convention, and fully approved the conservative conduct of Gov. Gamble. Gen. Hlair also spoke strongly in favor of acting generously with the erring people of the South, forgetting, as far as is consistent with safety, what has passed, and for restoring the Union in all iw parts as it was before the rebellion broke out. We quote a paragraph fiom General R.'g speech: I once heard a great chieftain whose memory should be held in honor and veneration in this State and tiobodv will have any dillicultv in recalling his name, for it was the gteat M:souri Senator old Benton I once heard him, alter one of the fiercest and warmest political coi,te-ts that evcrr.iged in our midst, when personal vituperation had been heaped upon him 1 heordhim after the battle waj over, and he was victorious, say to his Iriemls in the hour of victory: "Moderation is the ornament of victory." So it 6hould bo with us. What mstters it what certain people may have thought a year, or two years ago? Ceruin mi-lcd and misguided men lor a time gave in their adhesion to this movement cainst the Government. They would now lam obliterate that since they have seen their error, and desire to retrieve their ill deed. Shall wu meet them at the threshhold and thrust them buck and insist that they shall be the enenoes of the Government? Has our Government so many friends on the e irth that we can thrust back thoe who are willing to lay down their arms and become our frien.is? I sy thnt it is neither the part of wiadom or common sense to reject men who are willing tccomebick to us and be our friends. Applause I say that while we should fisht until the l i.t moment until we have exhausted every dollar we possess fight until we have poured out nearly the last drop of blood in our veins fiht for ever, it nece.-sary to re estah lieh our Union and the Iree principles of our Gov

ernment, vet whenever men are willing to sur j

render, to a-lmit their error, and say tht thev have been misled and misguidel.it does not com port with the greatness and msgninimity of a republican Government to pursue them with vjndictivenefS, furor and h itred. That ought to be left to dynastic governments; this thin-rof hatred belongs to kings and princes, and the people who luve their own individual api'es to vent.

But a government of tbe people great and !

magnanimous Government knows how to for give as well a how to conquer. Cheers My friends. I desire to see the re-esub.isbm.eut of the Union as it was. Great applause

w bat lioc It Mean! The New bun port Herald, a Republican raPr, has been "speaking out iu meeting." If any Democratic journal hid uttered such a reutiment, six months ago. the otbee would h tve t een m-'b bed, and the circulation of the paper through the mii!" would have been forbidden: "Whether the conscription law as it now stands U constitutional, or not, we don't undertake to decide. If it is not, never should a man be drawn under it; for our fcrt duty is to adhere strictly to the constitution and laws. "Military necessity. " in our minds, is treason; another form of trea-on. but no better than that cet on foot bv Jeflerfon Davis is on the South, or the leaders o't the riot in New York, be they whom they may." What a pity it is that other Republicanjournals cannot have the frankness to con.Jeran the unconstitutional ad unwarranted acts of the Ad ministration. Wh? cannot they ate that the preservation of popular liberty is more deirab!e than the success of a political psrty; that the Constitution is of more conequence to the country than the Chicago platform.

The ülecilon la RenlncUr Hurvs aide's Declaration of tlarllal Law liosrtlie I'raple vrrre Protected In their ovrrelffn ICIchtv" pL'NiMriaLP. Kt . August 4. To tht Editor of Ike Oucbjo Timet: Burcside's declaration of martial l,w was followed by one emenating from T. H. Butler, commander of tbe 5th Indiana cavalry, placing Rardstown and Net son county under martial law. Bsrdstown ia the residence of Hon. C. A. Wicklifle, Democratic candidate for Governor. Col. Butler announces, with a profuion of large capitals in handbills di-lributed on Sunday, tint the people are to be "projected in their s vereien rights a citizen, and not mole red in any way " BloomSeld is a small town twelve miles: from Bird'town, in the mi.'t of a tr.e country, where Democrats abound. On Mondiy m iming (election div; Capt Sea, formerly of Chiaco. now an Indiana captain of cavalry an abolitioni-a who voted for Lincoln, avowed himelf in favor ot the emancipation and nero arminc policy of the Pre-ident, and defines "loyalty" to be a up port of the President's meaurea with a squid of twenty five soldiers armed with carbines, sabres, and revolver, took po?esion of the polls. He informed the judges tht thev were under martial law, and would bave to conduct tbe election according to bis di rections, which he had received from his sujseri ors. He then declared Hon. C A. Wicklifle a dUIoyal m-vn, and that no vote should be cant for bim He furnished State; Congressional and county tickets, which he declare! to be "loyal," and said that loyal men mihl vote for them. At a later period he stated that votes of "loyal men" might be cast for other candidates, provider the judge would indori the hyilty of the eandi datfi. admoni-hinjj them, at the si nie time, that they would be held responsible for the loyalty of all men voted fr; and thnt if any of them should hereafter be declared "dislovai" by the military authorities, the judges would le punished; but what the puni-hincnl might be he was not authorized to say. The judges, overawed by the military, being aqtninted withotilv a few of the long list of candidates, and warned of exposure to an undefined military punishment if by chance a disloyal man should be voted for, concluded to receive votes only lor the military tickrt,o which Rrsmlette, for GotciM r, was ihe head A few Democrats offered to vote for Mr. Wicklifle. but were met wiih the ns-oirnnre of the Inuians, abolition, nero .'rtninc Captain, with his revolver conpi -uo'isly displayed, that "Mr W ickl ff' i- a disloial nun, and that iu no ca-e eh.tll a vote be cast tor him " The Democrats then cop up the content and resigned the pobs to the military and the "loyalty." About nine tenths of this precinct is Democratic, and it would hive so appeared on the poll-books it we had been allowed to vote; but the military decreed otherwise, and like our beloved brethren, the Northern Democrats, when they cct in a tiiht place, "we are a law and order people." "But for our forbearance, blood would have been hed," as our Northern brethren say when they allow the Abolitionists to "spit ufain them and rub it in." Thst is to say, we quietly submitted to have our rights wrested from us, and the sol iier had no occasion to "shed the blood" of so docile a people. Tho w hole nuraler of votes cast was nineteen, all for the Bramlette ticket. If th Democrats had been allowed to vote, Mr. Wickliffe's ma joiity would have been 120 or more, The entire "bogus Union" strength was polled, except perhops two votes. Old men ho had been voting for forty and Cfty years, were yesterday refused the privilege of voting, while mere youths just out of their minority, freely voted. An aped minister of the Gospel, who has been a legal vote', but not a politician, for fifty seven years, was denied a vote; whilst a young man without sufficient intelligence to read his ticket, and known to be a thief, voted for Bramlette & Co. Men of Iarjre wealth and high character, wh i pay heavy tixes to Stite and national governments, could not vote, whilst "squ-itters" and "ppontes" freely voted, who will probably never pay a dime to support the national government, and nothing more than bead tax to the State Government. Thu did "the military officers aid the conslitu ted authorities in aupport of the laws and of the purity of suffrage," under Gen. Burn-ide's order proclaiming martial law. Thus did the com mtnder of Indiana troops. In Nelson county, fulfill bis promise made in flaming capitals that the people shall "not be molested in any way. and shail be protect ed in their sovereign rights " At BirJ.-town and other parts of the county, the time scene was enacted. The same w as done in several other counties heard from And vet the Louii-vi'.le Journal and other abolition papers will claim a bri Hint victory achieved A' Chaplain in this county, the judces support ed by a few cit'xens "overawed" a diminutive specimen of a ctmtain nnd his squad of men, and voted for Wickliffe Bramlette securing only fix vote, and Wickliffe more than ore hundred.

The correspondent says Morgan's raid has "none more to kill off copperheads than any thing thnt has transpired during the war " If he means that Morgan's racals killed some Democrats who attempted to check their progress, bei right. We recorded the death of one good old man. Colonel Ferree. from that caue, yesterdav. h-it hardly think this h matter to boast about If, how ever, he means that Morgan's raid drove men from the conservative into the abolition ranks.be is vastly mistaken. We will cheerfully give him a dollar for everv man whom he can show has left the Democratic to join the Republican party, as a consequence of Morgan's raid. The writer further snvs a few mote such raids wou'd fiiii-h them (the coprterheids) un arid we should all be on one side. Wehardlv know w hat he mem bv this, but as Capt Cunmnuham, Morgan's Adjutant, who escaped and got back to Dix'e, benrs testimony that the copperheads. and butternuts were alwavs in the advance w hen there was ny fighting to he done, the presumrvion is that the Cicoronian confidently anticipated that in a few more such raid the Democrat would all le killed off, leaving the radical in lull noesion of the country. If such is his mean;tg he is no doubt by this time lamenting that Morgan is unable to make any more raids New Albany Ledger.
