The Ijlnclnltc Ion n rrcnaont and Iliastipportcr. f urther Proof Colonel CoB.Ab Bakes: ij the candidate on the Republican State ticket for Lieutenant Governor. II was one of the e peak em at the Liscolx ratifi cation Dectiog in this citj od SaturJay ni-bt U. Tbe Journal, of Monday laat, report hi remark opoo the occnion. He pole ßtr Governor Mokto, and, therefore, with a full knowledge of tbc views of His Excellency. Tbcs fact grm additional aignlficance to the remark of CoI.Bakir. He hs the reputation of being a sharp, shrewd man, and he undoubtedly under Und 1 tbe feelioj: and purpose of th.V Lincoln wing of the Republican party. Col. Rista was ODdignied in Li opposition to the Cleveland Contention and the Cleveland nominee.?. Mark well the opprobi-Jin epithets he applies to Fiimoxt and his upporterj. He cbar;e Feemost with desertion, and it U well known in these military times that a e?erter i rot only degraded, but should receive condign punishment. He also said, using a most contemptuous term, th it the Cleveland nomination wa. a "drift wool concern' and intimates that the nominees would catch drift on eharet with Southern traitor. I? not this complimentary to the Cleveland Contention, composed of Republicans? Vc also call attention to another point, and we quote tbe word which the Journal report. Col. IIaki.k "wm particularlj severe on the right o( ajlum as set forth in Cleveland and it me.wt an -y-lam for scoundrels." This is notour report, be it remembered, but that of the Journal, the organ of the LiNcoLMTkH. Whntdidtbe Cleveland Convention sv upon the M.bject? V.'e 'quote from the platform: 7. That the riht of ajjlum, except for crime, and subject to law, is a recognized principle of American liberty; that any violation of it cannot be overlooked, and must not go unrtbuked. T m it,. m a Tr . . r. art llitj l!fl-Nf ltjin? Col. Bake representing Governor Morton and tbe Lincoln State ticket, ruja there is that it means an asylum for sconndrtli. Wc quote gain the words of the Cleveland convention, to 'that the odium which Morton, Rastn and company feek to place upon the &upporttrs ol Fri:wravv maw F A fitllv a rxr.rnin t arl T 1 at rirrltf f f asylum, except for crime and subject to law, ia a recognized principle of American liberty." la there any thing contrary to Republic.m irirciplt'S in this? Yet a Lincoln meeting in this city, at which the Lincoln candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor were the principal speakers, say nothing is meant by this formal declaration ' of principle, but to establish an asylum for scoundrels. And be it remembered, also, that the speech of Col. Raklr has not been modified or changed, although there has been ample opportunity to do so if he was not correctly reported. The speech of the Lixcolx candidate lor Lieutenant Governor was but an echo of the sentiments entertained and expressed by the Lincoln candidate for Governor. It was not am attack upon Fremont's letter ol aorcptance or the views entertained exclusively bv that individual, but a denunciation of the Cleveland resolutions. We reproduce and call attention to the speech of Col. Barer, as it appears in the Lincoln organ, for tbe icaon that as far as it goes it fully sustains, in fact, more than sustains our report of the speech of His Excellency, O. P. M. It proves mot conclusively that Morton, Raker, nnd the whole State ticket nre down "t Fremomt, are down on all who support him, and nuch is their arrogance that they denounce even the Republicans who have the independence to think and act for themselves. Heie is tho speech of Col Daker as reported in the Journal of Monday, tbe 13th instant, and it will be noticed that it says it was reccivel with "great appl.iu'c" : REMARKS OF COL. BAKER. A loud call being made for Col. linker, our candidate for Lieutenant Governor, he came forward and spoke briefly but eloquently, and his remarks were received with great applause. He said the nominations had heen ratified hy the people the moment they heard of them. The Baltimore Convention had only put on record and confirmed tbe previously expressed will of the people all over the country These nominations had been made by the people the ticket would be elected by the people, lie ihonqht Fremont could be conticted of desertion. The General thinks everything is suspended, and forgets or fails to see that it is only himself that is suspended. The Cleveland nomination was a drift wood concern. It was like the b.irpain be- . . r I rv. . , . ; .. iwecu m jaruiir aiiu n '1111.11111.111. in 1m.1i tue latter was to catch drift wood and pu it in two piles, taking one. The Chicago Convention won.Ul also oe a drift wood birgain would catch drift on shares with Jeff. Davis. He was particularly severe on the rijjbl of asylum hs set forth 'at Cleveland said it meant an asylum for ffcoundrsU. Alt the Intelligrnrc nnd Wc-ultli. Goternor Morton said in his Linyoln ratification meeting spetch, and we juote fnm the re. port of the Journal which he admits ti be correct, that the Baltimore Convention "re.re-cnted the real intelligence, wealth and strength of the government." This is rather a modest assumption. According to His Excellency the Cleveland Convention did not rcf rcsent "the real intelligence, wealth and strength of the government," only the undercrust, the mud-ills, the canaille, although of the ?atne political faith Says His Excellency, there is no intelligence, virt.ie or wetlth unless it be in the fiction of the Republican party which he represents. X-rer wa there a more ridiculous jsuniption All we need sty, if he is a representative of the intelligence and rirtue of the Lincoln p.uty, it is whittle i down to a vcrv small end "A Hi' ndr ed Years." On Thursday la?t Mr. Lane, of Indiana, said in the Stinte f the United States: "He dissented 110m his colleague (Mr. Hendricks,) that the country should cry peace, and accept peace. He did o whether the war lasted one yer, five years, or a hundre! years." . This is the accepted doctrine of the Lincoln Abolitionists. These miserable fanatics do not want peace, on any terras, or under any c:rcum stances. As Ions as they cm rob and J bunder the people, they desire a continuance of the war. no matter if it lasts " hundicd years." The ruin and misery in which our unhappy country is plunged, are of smtll moment to them. The suSeriu. and ag;ny of the ma.es occasion them no uneasiness. As long as the people will give thsir precious live-; ani millions of monev, thev will protract this deadly strife indefinitely, and make no effort to stay the band of the destroyer. This is Lincoln Ab-ditiAnm 'Phils-M Xe. A man fifty year? old. who has rut bis hair regularly, will have removed from his bead over thirteen' feet, or twice his own length. Of the rerd. twent.v-tive years sharing takes off eiht feet. The cutting and sharing is tte.nJe 1 with a great increase of the juices, which nourishes the hair, a part of which is lost bv evaporation from the stumps of the hairs. Bicht, the cele brated French physiologist, attribute the superior strei.gth of the ancient to the custom of wearing the berd. -a s) A pair of rebel shoes taken by one of Crook's eommibil are thus .e-rr)i- Tho mj!m ,t,.i heels of the ioes are of wood, and appear to have been tawed out by machinery.

The oh-ejuious boly of ofheebolder?, and of Tesent and expectant dependents upon executive favor, have stilled their own preferences, repressed their bone-t conTirtion of right, buwe 1 submissively tv the wiil of Abralum Lincoln, and nominated hini for re-election. The World has contained full accounts of the frjceeJias-. But this convention, subservient as it has been, is the mot remark lble, if not tho most important, political as-emtIae ever fcen in America. In the hatc of writing whutac t'jally tran-pire-1 of the outward and formal proceedings of the convention, many things were r.fce.-arily omitted. Ihe full history of the convention requires now an account of ..orne ;er remarkable and highly significant features of the affair, which have not yet been mentioned. Some of these features mmilested themselves in the moit importnnt actiors of the convention, namelv, in the admi-sion and rejection of delegates from certain State-, in the tone and fpirit of the platform, and in the nominations Others of theso features, however, were kept carefully concealed, were confined to secret deliberations; their very existence w as unknown to the majority of the delegates, and is not even m-nected by them now. And when the fullness of time has come and the ma-k is thrown off, the m j rity of the members of the convention will be astounded at the sharp game that has been played on t'fieni, and at the success which will have attended tbe plots of those who, they will then see, led them like la mbn to the .sacrifice no, they are not exactly lambs like bullocks to the slaughter. 5IR. LINCOLN SLEETING ON A VOLCANO. Reposing on what he conceives to be the unbounded confidence of the delegates in himself, as expressed by the unanimous nomination on the first ballot, and on the belief that he may count on tLe unwavering upport of each individual delegate, to the extent of his ability, from now to the end of the canvas?, Mr. Lincoln will sleep soundly at nights, and indulge in the pleasing dream of four years more of absolute power. Let him not deceive himself. He sleeps upon a volcano. He is sold. If he depends for his elec tion upon the influences w hich the membs of this convention are to bring to bear upon the people, he will be so badly beaten in the election that the people will wonder at bis insulfrrable vanity in supposing, for a moment, that he could be elected. If Mr. Lincoln intends to be elected, he must go t-traight to work, and, leaving the management ot tho wrr to Gen. Grant, he must bend all bis energies to th political canvass. He must get up early and sit up late, take off his coat, and work a great deal harder than he ever did when he was splitting rails at fifty cents a day, at which time he was indeed un honest man. There is only one mode by which Mr. Lincoln can possibly be elected. If he permits the elections in the States to be free and untramcled he will be defeated by tbe means that I have alluded to in the first paragraph in this letter. He must call iuto operation the machinery of which Congress most unwisely gave him the control. He must see to it, that the November elections in the States of Pennsylvania. New "1 ork. New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana. Illinois, and perhaps some others, are conducted in the same manner as the last elections in Delawaii and Miryland were. Pre texts for such a course will not be wanting at the time. It will require the presence of a large army. But there will be plenty of tro "p ti'rth of the Potomac and Ohio by that time. rUTS AOAINS MR. LINCOLN. Candidates at national conventions are usually nominated in order that they may be elected". Mr. Lincoln was nominated in order tint he might be defeated. His election will depend upon three '.hings: Frt, upon tbe course taken by the friends of Mr Chase. Second, ujion tho course taken by those delegates (and the constituences which they represent) whose real preferences are for Fremont, but who for the sake of harmony in the convention, stilled those convictions and voted for Lincoln. And third, upon military success. I am far better qualified now to speak of the position in which Mr. Chise's friends stand than at the time I wrote my last letter. Well, I relate üojr what I said then The influence ot Mr. Ooae and of bis friends will not be used in favor of the election of Mr. Lincoln , but will be thrown with all the weight they command, and all the power they can wield, in favor of the man who, in October next, shall stand a head and shoulders above any other man in a point of availability. It may be Mr. Chase himself. It is more likely to be General Fremont. It will not be Mr. Lin coin. THE CHASE MEN FRF.FARINU TO BOLT. It is not in times like these that party usages or party rulers will retain the action of so powerful a body ot men as will rally under Mr. Chase. To the shame of the convention be it said, that no sentiment expressed in it was more loudly np pl.auded than that uttered by Mr. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, that the right of revolution was incorporated in the Constitution, and that they, the Republican party, m-ant and intended to change the form of our government as often as they pleased. The Chase men applauded this eutiment with the rest. What did that all mean? It meant that when the time for action came, their action should not be hampered by party usages or party rules: and that it was not to men who thus talk glibly about a "Constitu tion torn int. ten thousand pieces," and who "denied that our national life depends upon a maintenance ofthat Constitution" (and these were the very words tned by Mr. Breckinridge) that it was not to such men that they would look for th guidance of their political action. MASTER sriRITS OK THE CONVENTION. Among the master-spirits of the Convention were Hon. Henry J. Raymond, Mr. Tremiine and Preston King, of New Yark; Simon Cameron and Thaddeus Stevens, of Ttn isylvania. and Senator Jim Lane, of Kansas. Mr. Raymond ought to have been President of the Convention, and it was a fearful error on the part of Mr. Lincoln not to have insisted that this should be so. But. this a;art, Mr. Raymond displayed f ir more knowledge of parliamentary law , and more ability in the management of deliberative assemblages, than anv other delegate on the floor. The most eloquent speech of the Convention uiless tli.it of Dr. Breckinridge alluded to be t considered so'i was that of Mr. Treruaine. in fa vor of Daniel S Dickinson for Vice President. Mr. Cameron and Mr. Stevens both exerted them selves to the exclude the delegates from the rotten boroughs, but onlv succeeded in the case of i South Carolina; and I am assured that it is a positive f tct that the delegates from Sutb Carolina would have been admitted, h d it not been for the influences which these two gentlemen brought to bear upon the committee on credentials, through Governor ReeJcr. And now mark this prediction. Before the end of October the New York Times and Tribune will join the Cincinntti Gazette in supporting John C. Fremont ; for the presidency, and the war Democrats of j New Yotk (instead of going for Lincoln, as Mr. Trem ine said they would if Dickinson was com- j inated"' will support either Fremont or the nomi j i.ee of the Chicago Convention. int the ioLn,r:s think ok the militiry! MTfATJON. I have Mid that Mr. Lincoln' election depends i unon military success. What 1 mean is, that this ; is what is believed by the influential members of j the convention, the men whose effort secured Lis ! nomination, and who do not desire his election, j These men know, or at least they believe that j the country is doomed to disappointment in the ! expectations which it has formed of brilliant mil- ! itaiy succe-ses attending our arms this summer. ' And they know that Mr. Lincoln and bis fortunes j are tto closely allied with the operations of the i armies not to be affected by the lesultscf the! present eampaigns. The even:? of tbe last ten i days in Virginia were much talked of and anxiously scanne! bv the delegates during the inter-: vals in the sessions of the convention. Aud the universal sentiment, except the Missouri dele- i gates, was that General Grant's army w-as in a j very critical condition indeed. From what I ! heard, I koew that it would be no surprise to ! many the members of the convention to hear, in a few days, that Graut armv had been defeated or that the attempt to take Richmond has for the present been abandoned.
There are a dozen delegates who fear that such will be the result of the preent operations againt Biclimond, and tl.eir fear is based upon something that they have heard ir.ee they have been here. Despatches frum the Secretary of War have been received by ceveral members, but their tone is anything but encouraging. Theene that was read in the convention to-dsy is felt to be almost a m ckery. What! bibbliug about a pitiful affair at Suunton, when the whole country ;s li-tffiing breathlcs-ly for a avoid from the Chlckahominy! Insulting a national convention with a yarn from Ben butler conveying the as toundiag news that "all is quiet on mv line," and with the amazing fact that "Car.by is organizing his command," and not a word to say about the heroic endurance (for it has come to endurance now) and the operations of that gallant army un der Gen. Grant, ou which the fate of the nation depends. It i felt that bad news lurk behind all this reticence. Driip.

I have been elected to serve as representative in the Congtess of the United States. Elected to the thiriy-eventh Congre-s, I was re-elected by you to ?e"rve in the thirty-eighth. Such a mitk of your confidence has been accepted by me as the higlie-t evidence of your trust and re! i ii.ee on rny integrity and devotion to thoe ciett principles which lay at the very foundation of our Government principles which have been adhered to by tbe Democratic pnrty from its foundation until the present time, and which will be maintained and preserved bv them as long as the party shall exist. Never since the formation of the Government has there been a time when those principles have been more endangered than since the present Administration came into power. Brought into existence by fanatici-m and folly twin sisters of evil; .sectional in its character, and representative alone of a portion of the Union, elected by a minority of all the votes polled, with a popular majority of nearly a million of votes against it, at a time, too, w hen it should, and might have strengthened itself by combining together the Union portiou of our Dcoplc, and bringing to its support the Uniou feeling at the Sruth then predominant holding out no offer of security, protection, and defence, if they would return to their allegiance, as a majority then (on the pledges made by the Pre-ident in his inaugural address pledges reaffirmed in his first mess ge to Congress,) would have done it otic short year, by its measures of confiscation and nbolifion of slavery in the District of Columbia, and the proclamation atterwiuds aboli.-hiug it in all the slave States, destroy ei all confidence in the South, and brought upon us a civil war more bloody and ferocious than was ever known in the annuls of history. And where are we now, after a three years struggle? Can any one doubt that it Mr. Lincoln is elected, (he has already been nominated by the Republican party for another term,) the same policy he has adopted will be carried out by him, and the same war will be waged during the whole term of his administration, and at least two millions of gallant and noble men the very Uowrer and chivalry of the nation already called out to put down the rebellion, with further calls soon to be made by drafts of the remaining population, enough of whom are scarcely left to furnish food for our armies in the field and the supply of the wants of the small population lelt at home after taking all between eighteen and forty five years of age or furnishing food for the women and children who e left, with bank and treasury notes at discount of two to one, as compared with specie with a tariff of the most stringent ehat acter; with a tax bill eating up tbc very vitals of the people, and with an increase in the articles of prime necessity treble to what Ihev ever have been, who can expect that peace will return to our borders, and prosperity to our coun try, for years to come? Who can hope, that with every proposition made to stay the avenging hand of father against son, nul brother against brother in this parricidal contest, voted down by a party largely ascendant in both Houses ot Congress that the war will be ended, let our victories be as they may? Aud is there a single man within our broad domain, who is not a fanatic or a madman, who will ay now it should ever have commenced, when bere'lects for a moment on the terrible consequences that have flown from it? All histoi v proves that a population much less than we arc contending with, whether right or w rong, will never submit to oppression until com pletely subjugated, the heel of the conqueror placed on the neck of his victims, and they are made slaves ::nd vassals much less, when they arc cf the same race and lineage, speaking the same language, nd equally brave and courageous Surely not. when their property is confiscated, their cities sacked, their fields desolated, and their whole territory made a waste, and a desert. For my own part, 1 must confess, I do not see any rav of light in the pall of darkuess which at present overshadows our beloved country. I have but one hope, and that i-, in the success, the complete success of the Democratic party iu the ensuing fall elections. The Republican party is already divided, not on principle, but ou a division of the spoils, and strange as it may seem, the Lincoln ticket and the Fremont ticket will be supported by the very men who united on Lincoln in 1SG0. Vh;it may be the success of the Fremont ticket, its strength, time alone can determine; without, however, the slightest reliance on this division, what is the duty of the Democratic party rally, organize organize in cverv town-hip. county and State. See that every Democrat comes to the polls. Uuite your ichole .-'rength. Let all who are accustomcd to speak in pubiic assemblies, address the people whenever and wherever they can.

At your meetings and at the pol! devote all the time, not absolutely necessary forvour business, to your country. Now is the time, if it can be saved, to restore it to its fotmer power, prosperity, and glory.

Believe me when I say, you shall always find me willing and ready to aid you in your councils or the field; and now, my Irieuds, h wiitg said this much, which I deem my postlion, and tbe occasion required me to say, I will conclude by saying that 1 shall not be a candidate for a nomination to Congress before the convention which meets on the JOth of July next.

Cont itutionnl Mbertr Vindicated. From tbe Albany Ar&ns. An actiou of great importance has beeu bad at the Greene Circuit, which resulted iu a Terdict of cine thousand dollars for the plaintiff. It was a suit brought by Albert W. Patrie, a respectable farmer of Greene county, against Robert Murray, United States Marjhal for the southern district of New York, and William Buckley, his deputy, for an "arbitrary arrest." It appeared on tbe trial that in August, lrG'2, Murray sent Buckley from New York to Cairo, Greene county, to arrest the plaintiff. Buckley hid to legal proee-s to justify the arrest, though be bad iu his possession a paper supposed to be a representation made to Murray against Patrie by some political opponents. When Duckley arrived at the house of Patrie, be learned that Patrie was in a distant field on the farm, at work, and he took the little ort ttf Patrie to conduct him to the field, where the arcest was tnade. After returning with Patrie to bis bouse, in answer to an inquiry of Patrie's wife as to the probable fate of her husband, Buckley said lie supposed that he would be tent to Fort Lafayette. Patrie was taken by Buckley to the city of New York, and delivered up to Murray, by whose or
der be was imprisoned n an underground jail the Dim street prison for nearly a week. He was not permitted to write to his wife or friends, though he offered to let Iiis keepers read his let ters before thev were sent. During the nighbj he was confined, with two other p.risoucrs, in a cell about four feet wide and eix feet long; two ot the prisoners lav on the floor and one oa a shelf. placed again-t the side of the cell over one of the prisoners on the floor. either bedding, straw or covering of any kind ws furnished them. The character of the prison fare, the cruel treatment of one of the keepcts, and other circumstances were also proved in aggravation. Some of Mr. Patric's friends from Greene county, and his father, from Schoharie county, went to New York in his behalf during his im prisonment, but were unable to procure his re lease on bail or othcrwi.-e. In answer to Mr. Patrie's application to be bailed. Mr. Murray toid him that Ii Greene countv could do him no good; that no person could be ot any service to him ex cept a ctrlain lawyer, whom be named and offer ed to send him one bcebe, called Judge Dccoe. Patrie said be could not live long where he then was, and if no other person coula aid him except the lawyer he had named, lie asked it he would send that person to him. That person accord ingly came to see him, and ottered to obtain coa sent that he be bailed, and to prepare his bond for $100. Patrie remonstrated against such a charge for drawing a bail bond, aud ottered all the money he had w ith him, viz , $'2o, which was hualiy accepted. A bil bond was then executed by two of Mr. Patrie's friends residing; in New York, and he was permitted to return home. Mr Patrie then commenced his action for the false imprisonment, but the defendants have suc ceeded in keeping off the trial till the present circuit. At tbe November circuit, lSü.J. a postponement was procured by the defendants on various presences of the absence of witnesses a nd otherwise. At the last Fcbiuary circuit it was niTsiiLi jworii off to en-ible the defendants to pro cure the testimouy of the Secretary of War. But none of these witnesses were present at the trial, nor did it appear th ituny steps bad been taken to procure their atter.danceor obtain their testimony, or even that their attendance was desired. The cause was tried at Catskill, on Tuesday last, before Judge lngalls and a jurv composed of men of both political parties. The jury, after about two hours deliberation, found a verdict for SD.OUO, as above stated. "We believe this is the first case of the many outrages of this character w hich has reached a jury for redress; aud the result shows thit there exists among the peopie, irrespective of party di visions, a respect for constitutional rights and a determination to maintain them. Tbe courts are open to redress such wrongs, aud juries w ill not fail to lay a heavy hand upon those who abuse the power entrusted to Ihem by trampling uoon the lights of theeitizen. Justice may be delayed, but tt cannot be defeated. st.iti; mi.tpi. Waurick County Democratic Conven tion. Tbe Democracy of Warrick met iu con renlion at Boonville on Saturday, the 11th inst The following ticket was nominated: For Representative, Robert ferigo; for Sheriff, Wm. lluibson; for Surveyor, Attia Pasco; for Commissioner, N.

Resolutions were also reported to the Convention by the committee, recommen Jin the Hon. S. R. Kamill for Clerk of the Supreme Court, and Hod. Wm. E. Xibhck for Congress, but by error of the Secretary they were not read. The convention was nbly and eloquently addrei.ed by Hon. David T. Lir.d and S imuel R. Hamill, Esq., and the speech of the latter is a;d to hare been exceeiincly impressive and effective. Davil.-s County Dlmocuatic Convention Pursuant to notice, the Democracy of Daviess county assembled en masse at the Court-Houe, at Washington, for the purpose of appointing delegates to the Judicial. Congressional, and State Conventions. Judge R. A. Clements was unanimously elected President; R. A. Sücer, Jr., Secretary, aud Arthur Connelly Assistant Secretary.
