If tver a people were inviteito dissolve their political relatione with tbe Government and organlie one of tbeir oo upon a basis atisfsctory to tbemtelfea, it wee the people of the State wto hare since befn in rebellion, by the leading numbers of the Republican, party, immediately ffr tbe nt election of Mr. Li.col. Then they no'evil io dituoion; otherwise, the? professed to look urn sepiration at advantageous I the North. When these fact are coniidered, to the Republican party avoid the responsibility of having aided materially in precipitating upon tbe country tbe terrible civil war which bat juat ended? Tbe Gazette adda: "LI ad the whole people of all the loyal States at ooce coalesced in.tbe grand resolve of crushing the rebellion at all hix.rd, the war cuuld not have been maintained two years " Tht "whole people of all the lojal States" did coalesce " in the grand resolve of croabinf tbe rebellion at a)' hixirds," iu the CaiTTtiiv resolution wbiilt, with the exception of two votes, received the unanimous approval of the snemters of the House of Representative, on the Ml day of July, 15:61 It the war had been conducted io the spirit nf that resolution, tbe rebellion would withiu yetrV have been crushed anl the U.ii n m'.oreJ, nr. merely in name, but ia the bonds of concord and uaitr. Diit who are responsible for the proposition of the war? The Government, during it- entire progress, from Us inception, w under the com plete control Republic ins, and Democrat, from the binniti, invited to participate iu the councils of the Administration. The Democracy were as much ostracised as if they had no Interest wbitever iu the Government. Tbese are facts which cannot be deputed. All the Northern States, but two. New Jersey and New York, were under Republican rule, but those twj reepondei as promp'ly to everv call of tbs General Gjverumetit as th-e which claimed to be most "loyal" in fact, they Diver attempted to evade, as did some of tbe otaers by trickery, to fulfill to the letter not only, hut ia spirit the fell demand of tbe party lap wer. Itctnnot be defied tbit every call of the Administration for meo and money to jppress töe resell ioa was promptly responded to, and whttever may hare tieeu the individual opinions of citizens in regard to the character of tbe war aud tbe policy of the party in powar, virtually the entire North was a unit iu m inUioin the Government aud prosecuting the war. Every war measure of the party ia power was sustained, and never did a pirtv administration receive a more generous support from political opponents And how was tbe war conducted until tbe Presidential e!e:tioa of 15:04? It can n jt be deaiei by any candid person that tbe object in view seemed to be more to perpetuate tbe rule of tbe Republican party thau to suppress tbe rebellion. Tbe files of the Gazette will show that that very "loyal" paper often ezprewed the sentiment that tbe defeat of the Republican party at tbe polls in 1561 would be a gteater calamity than rebel victories io tbe field, and the semiineut found an echo ia every Republics prras of the Und. If the A Iminiatraticu had manifested that conflleocein and respect for its political opponent to which a powerful party was entitled, and if it bad prosecuted the war io the spirit and for tht purposes which were firat avowed, the restoration of tbe national authority over tbe people in retellion to defend and anaiutaia the tuprrmaey of tbe Constitution, and to preserve tbe Uuioo with all the dignity, equality and rights, of tie several Slates uiimpured " the North would htvebeeo an un t io sentiment, and the South wu'd have been a boms divided against itself, wbici oust have fallen.

, novr.r. BraTfogle," the Iodiacapolis correapor.ient fcf tbe Ciociccali Commercial, ia iiawt. M local editor atd reporter of the Indianapolis Journal Io bis letter to the Conmsrciul last week, be took occasion to notice the character of the ipeeehts of Geceral Hot xr, at the soldiers' reception io this city. As tbe Journal bas repudiated the critlcisai of "Drayfogle," acd the Cincioeaii Cenamsrc'al baa published appro icgly Ibt cQtameaUof tit Joutnl, Mttral of our readers Lave ezpreaaed an anziety to know what the offender laid, atd to gratify this desire, we republish that portion of his letter, premis iog it, bowtrer, with the Commercial's com ments: 'Bray fogle's' notice of General Hove, U a recent Indianapolis letter, seems to have been locked upon io some quarters as a rather more serious document than we regarded it. Tbe General, vi should think, ought to be able to bear up lor a time, under a rhetorical larrop of that sort, and perhaps be is; but the Indianapolis Journal, at least, gets grive about it. and ssys ibe paragraph io our correspondence abootOen. Hove? was "orjuit. uceel!ei for, atd cot warranted by the f.cta." All of which is poaib!e ButM would advise the General to be just a little cautious how he talks io oeetin abou; reporters. Tbey seraetimes scratch with long claws" Here is what ,,Brayfole, said: " Hares invariably go d in March. Why they ga snad, I never thought to inquire; but that tbey do go mad, I presume no one will venture to dispu'e. Else wby tbe phrase, 'mad as a March bare?' Tbe insane simile, I am afraid, will have to be changed, and for the highest types of aocontrollable and causeless mania, we will have to ssDtitute 'tnaa ss a iisjor itenerai. Ia my last I was compelled to chrouiele ao excess ef madness on tbe part of Major General Chapman, at the Sherman banquet. Now I must add Major Oeaeral Hovey to tbe list of tbe stark, raving read. His insanity which has been so artfully concealed ae to be not even suspected, was folly developed at the reception last Saturday, in a violent and uncalled for attack on the reporters of the Journal and the Semite!. Tbe attack on the Sentinel reporter was merely a question of taste. That young gentleman being employed on a Copperhead paper must necetrily infuse aome:birg of tbe spirit of Copper headism into the notices of the General's speeches; but tbe attack upon tbe Journal man was altogether unjustiSable. Tbt paper bas never said or Insinuated anything against tbe General, and bas uniformlv spoken of him as a brare mto and skillful officer. But the sore Doint seema to be that the Journal reporter has mauifaated a criminal want of appreciation of the General's style of oratory, and bss tailed to be snfflcieutly impressed with the broad huruor of bis anecdotes, or tbe blunt aud romewnat ques tiooablt Isoguage tied bj bias io jiving advice to tbe eoldiere as to the propriety of multiplying their species. Tbe General complained that the Journal, instead of reporting his speeches, had putbimoff with tbe simple announcement that 'Gen Hovey made a speech, never once thinking that the reporter was aiming to do him a kindness. He also complained that tbe Joursal man bad 'sat by' and permitted the Sentinel reporter to -villify and abue him. Tbe General, though a veterae soldier, talks like a 'recruit, wbeo he places his character and reputation in tbe keeping of a poor devil of a newspaper ecribler. " If it would be aoy satisfaction to- tbe Gene ral. I could earrest several prominent reasocs why bis soeecbes bave not been reported in full In the first place, though a bully fighter, he does not shine io oratory. He has nut, uufortunately. that versatility of resource which enables Gover nor Morton to present a new speech at each re ception, ant! alter the first attempt, the variety offered by him was very much like the four kinds of meat en tbe clown's table ram, lamb, sheep and mutton. Besides, our community, especially those of tbe ' waterfall ' persuasion. are extremely fastidious unnecessarily so, Bray fozle thinks: but so fastidious that hundreds of them have kept studiously away from the receptions, for fear that General Hovey might shock their sense of propriety by tbe broad ' raciness ' of bis humor, or in giving advice to tbe young men which our ladies consider entirely superfluous aDd unnecessary, believing that the natural instincts of the human race are sufficiently etrong to keep up tbe reproduction of the species. If these things are so offensive, when verbally uttered, as to deter ladies from honoring tbe receptions with their presence, tbey would be much more offensive in printed form, and if tbe General would think for a moment, be would realize the motive which induced their suppression. He ought to know that in this community such words as 'studhorse 'seed,' 'wife s petticoat, 4c, are proscribed, and that bis 'Java' story and the anecdote of the woman who crossed the river to have a baby, in order that it might be born out of the State, thoagh well received by the soldiery who marched down to the sea, are not just tbe style to please tbe ladies ot Indianapolis. "It is to be regretted that, just at the cloe of a long and honorable term of service for I understand that tbe General has tendered his resignttion this gallant officer should make an ass of Limaelf. Rat perhaps col l applications to the ( head, and rigid abatincnce from diet of a etimu latiog nature, may avert the threatened danger of permanent insanity. I hope so, at any rate Tilt: Fi:IAS II CHICAGO. Tbe Fenians of Chicago held a pic-nic on Sit urday last, to commemorate tbe Battle of Tellow Ford. It ia estimated there were ten thou Sind persons present. An eloquent speech was delivered by A. L. Moaaiso, Esq., in which he depicted Ireland's wrongs in glowing colors, and predicted that tbe Fenian Flag would wave over the hills of Ireland within a year. Ue said there were one hundred thousand Irish men in America pledged to the redemption of Ireland from British tyrauny, acd that be did not doubt her liberation. The affair throughout was a magnificent success. Tbe Times gives the following account of tbe Fesiani in Chicago: "In this city, aa elsewhere, tbe growth of the Fenian Brotherhood has been steady and progressive. Tbe first Circle started iu Chicago, wa organised in the fall of 1&57, by a small band ot Irishmen. James Sberidan, late Quar termaster of tbe Twenty-third Illinois Regiment, was chosen as tbe first Centre. New members were gradually added to the original li?t, and tbe Circle increased rapidly, although this was ibe only one ia tbe city, until the time of the Irish National Fair, when the same and purposes of tbe Fenian Brotherhood were brought into much greater prominence, ' A second Circle was soon after organized, and then another, and another, until now the whole num ber of Circles is ten, oumoeriog io the aggregate over fifteen hundred members The opposition from the mother church, which continued for so long a time to act as a drawback to the prosperity of the Order, is no looger ooenty manifested, and is gradually dyiogaway. Irishmen are now pouring into the Order from every quarter, so that the present Cycles will üjoo be filled to re plelioo, and new ouea will be added ia time. Mxhael Scanlan is the Hsad Centre of the ci'j, having held this position for the past five years Lie baa also been Siata Centre f r three years Tbe military force of the Circles of Caicago cousists of one full re&iseut; ut a secoud regiment is being rapidly organ zed, of which two companies are already fall." A great bail storm ece of the reveres ever known ia the West visited a portion of Grant county, W.'rcocsin. last week. Within its radias uver one boodred farms were literally made deo!ate.

The Tendency af Power-Ths Future, f the Cwuntry Under firpnbllcan Itnlt. Restoring a fragment of a country to full and complete fellowship, is cot a task to be accomplished by cere brutt forte. The very lozgei tion ot force io itself is a contradiction to tbe es tiblisbed form of this Government. Tbe con sent of tbe governed has so long been the basis opoa which we bave proceeded, that a different form is repugnant. Fancy eleven Slates, goverced uoder tbe old Constitution, hiving certain reserved rights, havicg free elections, and cocrta goreraed bj cifil law mart 1 -tterlj tepu jiated la abort, half the country governed by a free people, acd tbe other half governed as a subjugated people, with 09 rights that the Gv ern'meot need regard Oar Ca;ef Magistrate becomes the President of tbe Northern Sute; the sole irresponsible despot over the S::thern States. How would this work in tbe proem of lime? It was asserted by Calhoun, repeating what had been said by pbilosoohers oa government, that the tsndeocy of power is to Rain p)er. Tbe oe reeisry power placei in tbe bands of the Chief Kzecuttve.to enforce h.s arbitary will m the South, wiil increase hit strength, or tbe strength of tbeFederilGovtraaiect.e3ormou.lv. The policy now adopted to confer on the Southern States, cr people, only certain limited rights, must necessrily demand a strong power to maintain it. It may be aid that, as all this power is given by the Northern S:ates, tbey oan at any time refuse it It will be time enough to talk of refuiiog this power when we see any general disposition to do it. There is very little now, if any, and what wilt not be done now, after yeirs of rule, when eoitom sni precedent have Immanse I v strengthened the Executive, cannot be done The Government will hare become too strong to hive ita demands resisted, and what is now given as a grant will come to be assumed as a prerogative. Let us suppose, however, that after a period, when tbe States in tbe North have become calmed, that they conclude they will withdraw this power let us see in what condition they will be to refuse it. The Southern section of tbe Uoioa. embracing nearly one third of the Union, will trave been governed for from ten years to half a century by tbe Federal Ezecutive. All they bave is as a gift from bim. Tbey are subject to his will, and are responsible directly to him. He will therefore bave to resist the withdrawal of the entire control of a ti-h and populous territory. Ue begins the dispute with eleven great States certiiu to be with bim There he can gather bis armies, feel, clothe and pay them. He has in Congress a delegation subservient to his will, numbering nearly one third of that body. He bas sole control of the srmj. The vast s mount of patronaee in his bands; the strong influence of cutom. and the dread of entering into whtt ap pears to be a rebellion against the G overnment, will, beyond all question, make him irresistible When tbe States awaken to their danger the evil will be irremediable. It will be found that the teudency to uniformity, aided by the tendency of power to ga:n power, bas established one form of government from ocein tooccno, and from the lakes to the Gulf. Mr Lincoln once announced it as an axiom, that a courrry could not exist half alive and half free. We will h? found that this, in ita broadest senpe, and not in tbe nsrrow sense in which he used it, has been verified; that in the effort to hold the Southern States in a condition of eurjugtion his cost us our own freedom, and placed ourselves iu tbe condition in which we hoped to keep them. We believe this to be Ubdeniable We bei icve that do reflecting man supposes for an instant that the Southern States can be held in bond ige by the free States, and the latter retain their freedom. Such a thing is impossible; and although it is not advocatel in its plainness, yet we all know it is a fact, that the Southern States arc held under a different form of government from that which we ac knowledge in tbe loyal States, and that the policy of the dominant pirty is to keep up tbe present condition of things. This is what should caue reflecting men to pause, and, for reasons purely tfe!fi-h, oppose tbe establishment of the pro consular system ot government in tbe South. It is not only their freedom that is imperiled but ours. The remedy tor Jhis is by promptly ackaowledging perfect freedom in Ihp southern S'ate; to treat them on the same footing as the other States; to allow them all tbe rights of managing their own affars in their own way, subject only to the Constitution. We know there are some who argue that such a course would now be danrerous. Sj one be believes it, not even those who say it. Tbe les son the South has learned bis been a bitter one well learned, and we believe that if complete amnesty in its fullest sense was given, that there would be less danger of revolt in the Sou'h than in any State or section ct the union. 1 his was the basis of the Sherman-Jobngton treaty, and the only one by which a comalste amicable Union can be restored Indiana soldlera. The Indianapolis Journal notices, briefly, tbe fact that of the three most gallant men in the storming of tbe works at Peterbcrg, as an nouLced in complimentary orders from beadquarters in tbe army, turo were from Indiana one man of the 14tb, and one of the 23d. Tbee two are mere types of tbe Indiana soldiery, who have inscribed the name of tbe State among the foremost on every scroll of honor. The Jour nal concludes with the following, to-wit: "How does it happen that with this distin guisbed position, her ofheers met with so little comparative promotion from the General Government? How does it happen that Illinois, Msachusetts and Onio, can boast tbeir twenty Msjor Generals acd tbeir fifty Brigadiers, while we bave but three M-jor Generals and Mitne score of Brig adiers? How does it happen that those Generals command corps, districts, departments and armies, while ours bad hardly a command above a brigade? Our officers wete not less able, or gifted, or brave. " Indiana could make the charge and seile the works, and snatch victory from the jw of death, but promotion came slowly TV do not complain, but cannot forget the facts." It is with diffidence aud some foreboding, we approach the subject mailer embraced i t the quere ct our augui neighbor at the State Capi tal, he is so sensitive, peed hue mountains ot envy, jelou-y and bate, ia the centlet criticism; in a word, the Courier u eutj ugnted, roi;quered, and like tlie provincial press of theScate, wih to live in peace with the Journal Hare we not suffered enough? U is no tbe Courier, in time past, been cut off the exchange hit of both Journal and Seniiuel? It is pja.ible our senior editor might have been a Msjur General but for hiri chronic difference with Indianapolis. But we can't be'p being refreshed by the ciumc articUs. the Kvaosville Journal, at times, throws at Indianapolis. The editor of the Kvansville Jour nal once had a location and a borne at tbe Capital, and claims to be of the inner circle, of the cho.eu few, or ruling elass. We d love to see him "pitch in" wbeu we dare cot. The questions of the Capital Journal are per tinent, and supposing they are the cue for provincial prints, we dip our oar and wonder "how it happens," too. There is Morton C. Hunter, of Monroe county, who commanded a Brigade under Sherman for several years, with credit to hitne!fand the r.rmy; Colonel Jams Keigwia. of Clark couuty, who commanded a brigade for more than two jetrs; Colonel Ben Spooner, ol Dearborn; Colonel Lewis Jones and others, enough gaüant men to ofti.-er efficiently a large armj in this Cj2gre.iocal District. "How does it happen that promotion is so slow?" We con fass we do not koow, but, with some timiditv, suggest to the Journal at Indianapolis, to ascertain and print for general information, a lUt of the gallant men Governor Morton recommends to tbe President of tbe United Slates tor promotion, and to make the job complete, a list also of the names of gallant meo whose promotion he opposed. We know that Governor Morton is all right, that he bas recom mended wisely ai.d opposed discreetly Tbe Governor is not now on trial, but the Adminis tration is cited by the Journal before tbe great grand jury of the people, to answer for neglect ing certain gallant loOiaia oficersj. and we call O P. Morton as the first witness. Trot him out io yocr columus, Mr. Journal, or get him to al lüde to and illuminate tni drk spot in the action of the Administration In re card to Indiana oldiers. iu bss r.ext reception speech Madison Courier ( Kep ; An English chemi-t writes: "A curious ia stance of the applicrblility of chemical agents bas come under my co'ice.

Tho Troth In n .Xatsheli. J Fron the tlctsoad Whig A corretpocdcct of the lialuaorc Americas, wnucg from this city In regard to the elections, expressed the truth ia tbe following brief sentences. He sayi: "There is one thing I hope will be remembered io behalf of tbe peopi here. Tbev are not de5tat cr unfrierjdly towards the United States Government at heart. Tbev did ool mean their late election ai a dioval exhibition." "We repeat it, for the hundredth time, and shall repent it snany hundred more, to long as facts re main as they are, that, wr.h a fetv fu.iy, ully, and icaigai&c&nt axceioaa, the city ot Richmond, to day.u as free from pe.jua dispoaed to manifest drfiaue'er hostility to the Federal Government as tbe city of Boston.

There is c? man here save tbe few eoadulterattd and irrcieemable fools allude J to a ho does cot propose to be a peaceable and law abiding citi zen of the United Slates. And yet there are

men at the North, and even here in our midst, who pretend to question tbe loyalty ef the people ot Ilichmond ! Ojt upon such arrant nonsense!" Wh; the Whig says of Kxbmond will, we bouestly believe, apply with equal force to Tences.ee. The reports which are propagated at tbe North in regard to the condition of affairs in this State are very highly colored and Well cal culated to deceive, while they are equally well oalculated. and perhaps intended to keep up a continual excitement in regard to tbe late rebel element in Teanessea. Tbe late election in this State has demonstrated bow quietly tbe people bave settled down in the new order of things. No disturbances were created any where on theday of the election, that we can bear of, and as a consequence, there was no demand for the mil itary to aid the civil authorities in the enforcement of the law. Could this bave been done if the great body of the people had been as rebellious as certain Northern papers and correspond ents bave represented them? It is now evident that thousand of people regUteroi themselves under the franchiie law who did not vote Having s sou red tbe certificate of registration, tbey seemed to care nothing about voting. Maoy'of these were probably rebels or rebel syinpaihixvrs in the day of the rebellion, but now that tbey are restored to citizenship by the amnesty of the Prexident, and having saiUied themselves tb at tbey come within the provi-ious of the franchise law, tbey are content. The candid observer of events ia this S ate must admit that we are making rapid strides towards a complete restora tion of civil authority. The people have adapted themselves tj the new order of things with wonderful facility, and in much more admirable temper than was to be expected If the people are encouraged iu this disposition, and not habit ually abused and held up as rebels at .heart, we can see uo difficulty in rutting tbe whole machinery of the State Government to work as smoothly as before the war They must be made to fel that they are citizens of the State. and as much iutciested in its prsperitj, political as well as material, as their neighbors, and they will dixrhsrge their whole duty as citizens Nashville Dispatch T!ie Obcrlin Letter of Jen. rex fron n Colored Tonn of View. From the CiLcinnail Colored Citizen. UKMIBAL COX'd LKTTka. We have read the letter from General Cox with profound regret. It is a mistake It is a mistake in principle and iu policy. This, we are persuaded, the General will lire to see. The idea ot colonizing eur people, whether io another Und or iu this land, is, we would have the General understand, a product of slavery. Nobody proposes to colonize any other class. It is be cause wo have been enslaved; it is because we have been a subject class; it is because the dominant races bave, for ages, been unjustly disposing of our destinies, that such a thing is talked of Who proposes to send the Germans, or the Irish or Swedes to some foreign land, or to set off several States for them in this country? Nobody. Nobody? and wh)? Simply because tbey have not been cbattels; bave not, for centuries, been eurject to masters They have been in the habit of disposing of their own destiny; of deciding for themselves where they would live and pursue their own happinefcs. This is the reason. Tney hive had no masters to decide this for them And now as we are, in tbo good providence of God, and by the proclamation of the marUted President, ceased to be a subject class; as we bencefortb have no masters; a?, from necessity, we fall into the relations of other races and other citizens, we expect to be left with other, and like others, to decide where we will cast our lot, and prosecute our enjoyment This, we maintain, is our natural right. This, we also maintain, is our purchased rieht; for wuh our blood we have hour ht it. And a coo ce.-sion of this twofold right makes everything easy. The whole difficulty, as we conceive, of reconstruction, springs from an unwillingness to carry out Democratic principles. 1 his caues the tug of war.
