These wert tbt cinumitioce uudcr which we were 0 placed, acd we had cot the power f rcsitt or tbaogt tbem. And now corner the main jueetion of the whole matter. Wbat was thechartcter of oar testimony, aud whom did It aBect? It certainly did not injure the Democratic party, or tbt Son of Liberty, at an organisation. Ita whole purport wis a vindication of the Demo r itie prty from any affiliation or any complicity with the cbirgea of conspiracy, upon which the prion tri o? the accused were being tiied. It demon atrated tbat the Democratio party, when tbt fitct waa brought U their knowledge that revolutionary schemes were entertained, ao wild and visionary that they looked more like the plotting of the inmates of an insane atylu.n than of fate men, promptly put measures ou foot to bring tbem to an end, and they were uccesaful. There was co hesitation upon the put of the Democraty ia the discharge of their duty as citizen, at our testimony and the fct in tbt cm fully demonstrate Wbt wrong in this? Was it not tight that tbt priocipal editor of the Sentinel, and Chairman of the Democratio State Central Committee, who ' was cognizant of these facU, should exonerate his party friend from the attempt which was beio made to hold the Democratic pirij of Indiana responsible for a revolutionary scheme said to have been concocted ia Chicago and of very extensive ramifications on payerl Whit reasonable exception can the editor of tLe brownatown piper, or any aensible man, take o our action io thia matter, when viewed from the stand. poiat we have statedt In fact, what reasonable objection can any one make to our testimony, ui!cj by a party who bad pirticipited ia the conspiracy? We have cot a copy of our testimony before m (being at home sick and confined in our bed) but from our recollection of it, inquire- of the Brownstown Union editor, if it did any it-jury to any person on trial before the Commission? In fact we knew cothiug of tbt complicity, if any, of either of them in the charge alleged against tbem. and fur which tbey were being tried. The trial of Bowlej and others before the Military Commission was prosecuted mainly to aid thfjBucceüof the Republican party in Indiana. One of the moat prominent of the prosecutors informed us thst the whole atTiir was a God-sed tt the Republican prtr. aud if il it had not beea dtveloptd just aa it wns, the Sute would have gone Democratic by a handsome majority. The prosecution waa mtnaged with a great la of aagtdty, acd just in such a way ai to make as mach party capital out of tbt att'ir aa possib'.t. The arrests were made with that view ia end, and the time seltctej to produee a rauch party effect fi possible. The same object was developed In the time fixed for the commencement of the trials, and tbey were continued just in a way to make them as damaging as possible to the Democracy, without giving them any opportanity by counter testimony lo counteract the inflat net upon the publia mind which the prosecution had very ingeniously, and. to a large extant, successfully poisoned and prejudiced. And il wa not until the testimony of the priocipal ditor of tht Sentinel was git en that the truth in the ease was made known, acd the Damosratie partj waa rtlieveä from cbirge of complicity, aiding and abetting, the conspiracy. Neither wis it known until then tbt aacctiafu! part that the leading members of the I'crao.'Utic party .in this city had t&keu to up whatever there was of the revolutior ary acheme ia tht bud for tbt conspiracy really embraced but a very fw persons, rrry few, as facts hut ein developed. And for this we are charged by a Democratic editor witb "turning Siatt'a efidsace" and iejuria the Democratic party! Bui enough for Uday'. Wt atxt-i oat deny that we bad turaed atate'i evidence, as charged by th Brawnstown paper, or that there i any fouudatiuu whatever for such an accusation. When our health will admit we will refer to tht ubjeci again. In conclusion we will add, tbat some of the b?t Democrats urged upon ita aa a duty we owed to our political friends and to ourseif, to cet the facts set forth ia our tect'.muny before the people aa eooa as it could be dne. si lite il of a i.trt: co f. nr. u r-; One of the prominent memherj cf lit Sjuth Carolina State Convction. reeofy iu sion, was Genera!

" Ilcononay As eurely as thrift follows industry and economy, does want succeed idleness and extravagance. There has been a manifest improvement in the habits of tbe people during the last few months in the management of their private concerns; but the national treasury still disburses the hard earnings of the laborer witb the most wasteful abundance, and this extravagance is almost wholly unchecked by the public press Tbe current national expenses atill exceed two million dollars per day, and this frightful outlay is chronicled with little Cancern, or pointed at witb pride, as if it were only a liberal handling of unlimited sueans. It is high time tbat ail who have the best interests of the country at heart should cease their wrangling abont matters of little moment, and pay more attention to this drain upon the life-blood of the nation. It is all very well for Üuent orators to tickle tht ears of a well dressed audience witb highly-wrought descriptions of our unlimited resources, and poetry and muaio may lend their aid to give brilliancy to the charming romance, but there will be an afterpiece of another sort if this'play is long eontinned. Tbe undeveloped resources of a country will not furnieh food acd clothing without the earnest tol which can make even a wilderness to blossom, and there will be a terrible awakening from this dream of plenty if the present wastefulness is not speedily checked. Tbe road to ruin has its familiar landmarks, and it needs no prophet's finger te point out tht inevitable future, if the National Treaaurj ia to be drawn upon with such a reckless haad. We have been tald each month tbat tbe limit of this beavyaexpenditure was reached, and retrenchmeat had begun, but there are no signs of such economy, and we do not believe there will be until it is insisted upon by tbe united voice of an indignant people. It is difficult to check the wastefulneia of a prodigal, even when it is bis own fortune which be is squandering; how much more diffieult. then, to induce officeholders and private plunderers to take their hands out of tbe public purse when the general waste contributes to their own gain. There never was a people whose generosity was more grossly abused. With a lavish hand tbey hive heaped their fortunes into their country's Treasury, asking co account, and only hoping tsar there would be eaouh to Ust until the trial wis over. They are proud even of their wanton liberality, and. thankful if the cation's life is saved, they do not cow ask for a too careful reckoning of the cast. But hange of popular feeling occur verj quickly in this climate, and if it comes u be uuderitood that this unselfish devotion is traded on for the mere purpo of plunder, they will be aa qvick to resent the in?ult as they were to re-pond to the first appeal. It ia tiuit for plain speaking, and a little wholesome severity in examining the daily account of these most extravagant expenditure can do no posib'.e hsrm. A few yeirs a,;o, the whole country was stirred up by a" fierce debate about a few dollars extra mileage pid to mem bers of Congress. But here are hundreds of millions running out of the public Treasury in the most wasteful profusion, and we hardly bear a warning voice. Somebody has jet to toil for ihete uncounted millions. Some one' back must bear a grievous load for every petty thousand in these enormous aggregates. There is yet to be Let only toil, but suffering and ws.Lt in mauj a borne before tbe cal settlement for all this wa-Jte. There is a long gaunt procession of rel peojle, our own rlesb and blood, who must yet mourn over this uncalled for extravagance. We wish that the ghosily presence of every pocr toiler, whose burden U thus wickedly increased, could Dover abont these harpies who have fastened upon the public crib, and give tbem a fore tisteof tbat fearful retribalita which mutt await tlcm if even-bicded justice be not evaded. Lot the cry for economy, to begin at once in every depaetment of the üovernment, be taken up and echoed all over the land, until the people hall be aroused to a. jealoua watchfulness of those who have access to tht public purse, and the curuut expenses, of tht Treasury be reduced to ons-tliird of tbe amount cow so lavishly quaedered.

AdJrttt ty the Statt Centtnticnof tkt Ftnitn Brotherhood in Indiana-A n Urgtnt Apprnll The following address wss issued by the Fe nian Statt Convention of Indiana, which asseabled at Lafsjette on October i'.h ted Gib: Finow Citiziss There can co longer be a doubt in the minds even of the most skeptical among us. aa to tht certainty of an early (if not an immediate or actually, progressing) and gigantic strurglt between tbe ad roc t tea cf Irish liberty and independent nationality on tht ont side, and iu implacable foe, the Britiih oligar chy, on the other. I his monatroua despotism has for centorter, oy cecdisn persecution, and by brute force (ecured and perpetuated by treachery, perfidy, perjury and fraud) banished the children of Ireland from the dearly lored home of their tires, or held them io a state of compulsory bondage ia tbslr hallowed native land a land periodically saturated by the sacred blood of ber martyred beroes, wboet bones bestrewed her heath clad hills, lie bleaching on ber verdant plains, rill her desolated vallies, blanch upon ber pebbly shores, acd glut ber roadside ditches, (ready made graves for ber martyred children) which, ere this reaches the public eye. may be improvised into rifle pits and trenches by their surviving, unsubdued brothers and de scendants with their bannet of green and gold, in its primitive enuigence proudly and defiantly fluttering orer them in the friendly breezes of a propitious heaven, reflecting the cheeriag rays of a congenial sun, of which it is tbe symbol. Th'.s atrocious, usurping power, when disponed to vary its diabolical " policies for the exter mination of the " surplus popalatitn," to make more room for the landlord's lowing herds, or to increase the area of " the young gentlemen's sporting" ground always found the crow-bu and the bayonet, the gallows and the dangeon. tbe convict and the emigrant ship, the penal colo nies and the pest houc, bingularly available iu the execution and accomplishments of ita designs ; but as su.c as Uod isjut, it will yet, 'and sooner than ruarTy may believe, be "brought ta a realixing cense" of the retributive power and long-treasured vtngeance of its exiled victims, the dread of whoat sudden rc-appearanee on their native mountains has already convulsed the British empire from centre to circumference, and caused fear and trembling to seixt the craven and obdurate hearts of the relentless tyrants who execute the will of "her rnot gracious majesty, tbe queen of Great Brit tin and Ireland," and who with a Fharasaical and mock devotion, de lighted in chanting the blasphemous " national hymn" " Ood save tht queen," while she aud tbey are knowingly and asYiiuouily performing the work of Satan. To all appearances, tbe auspicious moraent has at last arrived for pultin; forth one uuiUd, mighty effort t ' urst a.-mn er the galling chains which have hclu at tho mercy of a ferocious tyrant, a brave, chivalrous and liberty-loving people. The wrongs and woes of Ireland are ao familiar to all intelligent persons thai their recital at length would be superfluous; nor is it in accordance with the Feuian creed to despond -ingly relate the oft told story of Lis country's miseries, or in lachrymose lamentation bewail her sufferings. His duty, and tht dutj of every man entitled to the came, is to redress those wrong?, and by the only effective method, aud tbe only effictcioua means, revolution and its le gitimate concomittnts the iword and tbe musket, the cannon and the pike ! Tbe clear heads, brave heaits and strong arms of hundreds of thousands of our countrymen are ready and eager to obey the word of authoritative command, whenever it is deemed advisable to give it, and tbat command will be promptly given, when Irishmen and their frieuds, and tbe friends of liberty generally, in America, warrant its utterance. The Feuian Brotherhood, and those with whom they are in alliance, in view of tht practical lesions of the past, and iu tht light of long and bitter experience, propose now to substitute for "redress and grief ances" instead of abject petitions, the musket's persuasive toiler; of humble remonstrances, the cannon' convincing thunders; of begging committees, armed legions; of newspaper bulUts, the rifle's ball; of tbe vassal's entreaty, the imperious demand. These more efficacious arguments we are pledged to test. Those who have won glory for England on ten thousand fields, and attested their superlat:ve valor ou every American battle field, are equal to the task of delivering their mother country from her despised condition, and they will succeed iu doing so, or die the patriot-soldier's death, and, in the language of au American statesman, " leave the record of their illustrious deeds, where it is most safely deposited, in the universal remembrance of mankind." Tbe pompous uewspaper organs of the British Ciovernment, while they affect indifference in, and contempt for, this grand and heaven inspired movement, arc utterly unable to conceal their own perturbation, and constantly bold up to John Bull's distorted optics, visions of "Yankee expeditions," "swfirms of Irish Yankees or Yankee Irish soldiers, witb square-teed boots, hand fulls of gold, a reckless air of independence, by which, and their boastingof the superiority of Americaas and American institutions, they are easily distinguished from our (their) less Obtentatious people!" All this but corroberates what can no longer be denied, tbat the men in Ireland are ready and anxiously awaiting the full performance of tbe promises made tbem by their friends in tbe United States. These promises are easily fulfilled. The question now is, shall they be redeemed, and that speedily? We have what tbey lack "material aid." It was given to Hungary and Poland, shall it be denied to Ireland? Every true lover of justice and liberty will answer, No! They are as yet inadequately equipped, and now, (and for the last time,) we appeal to our felloweitizens, without distinction of creed or country, to contribute in proportion to their ability toward making ample and instant provision for placing on a proner footing in the field, this noble army of freemen, panting for the order to "advance!" and drive from their native soil the tyrant invader, tbe author of its degradation and woe. Tbe generous citizens of Indiana, assuredly will not be found wanting in this " crisis in a nation's life." Duly authorized Committees appointed by tbe different Circles of tbe State, will apply in their respective localities for contributions to the Irish Revolutionary Fund, when it is hoped that the proverbial devotion of our people to tbe cause of constitutional liberty will be palpably manifested in the liberality of their contributions. The recognized patriotism, purity and ability of Col. John O'Mahoney and bis associates of tbe Supreme or Central Council, warrants us in reposing in them the most implicit confidence, in assuring contributors that every dollar given l this cause is scrupulously guard ed, rigidly accounted for, and judiciously expended for the object designed.

A Cairo correspondent of tht St. Louis Re publican says that a few evening since, at a mati nee theatrical entertainment at W est 1 oint. Mist , two soldiers accompanying: tbe band of tbe Thir teenth Indiana Cevilry, taring drank too freely, got into a difficulty with a negro sergtax.; in a drinking bouse, and cne of them slapped tbe nig ger J face. Tbe negro ran out, followed by tbe two soldiers, and drawing a revolver fired several shotg which took e fleet, both being shot, one- fa tally. While the wounded man lay weltering in bis blood a negro came up anr asae-1 if nt was dead. The soldier raised up and begged for lift. whereupon tbe negro excla.med, "You damned Yankee ton of a bitch," and hit him on the head itb tbe butt of bis musket, knocking him in sensible. Tbe negro Sergeant and his comrades then ran up, kicked the two wounded met and stamped upon them. Captain Lee, commanding Company C, started toward tbem. wbtn tbey fired a volley of musketry, and told him not to come nesr or tbey would sboot h'.m. Capt. Lee ordered out a company and arrested the rebellious and murderous gang. A few days later another negro soldier stole a revolver, and waa ordered under arrest by Capt. Lee. Upon rfusiug to go witb the guard, Capt. Lee taid: " 1 order you three times to go to your quarters, and if you dau't go I will shoot you." The negro levied : Shoot acd be damned! I shall not go an inch." The Captain then repeated the order three times, the negro still defying him, when the Captain shot him on the spot. Jrlf lint la- lint Miall be Done With Ulm.

The attempt to procure his conviction will inevitably fail, and the failure will be bruited abroad iu ail directions, to the disparagement of the Union cause. It will b trettcd as a eces sion triumph, lo our opinion, the bcit thing that can be done is t pardon Davis at once We think tbit our Gomnment, under the peculiar circumstances of the ci-c, should be as anxious to pardon him as he to be pardoned It h uld pardon him to avoid a mortifying failure to convict pirdon him because it cannot judily treat aa traitors those whom it his recognized in a thousand ways as regular belligerents pardon him because it Ins pirdo;iel his Vice President, his Cabinet, aud others neatly as high in the Confederacy as himself pardon him because his pardon would do more than onything else cutdd to promote the restoration of national harmony LouinviMe Journal.

A Farmer Without Anna. W. M. Beaucbamp, Onondaga county, M. Y., sends to the American Agriculturist an interesting account of a farmer he formerly knew who was born without arms. "Instead of appealing to the charitable 'for support, he commenced early to help himself. His first propeity was a hen and chickens, next a pet lamb, and afterwards a shaggy colt. He took good care of these, and increased his stock a little at a time, until he became a prosperous farmer. Having no bands, be learned to use bis toes, which were longer than common. His legs were also very flexible, and by practice he was enabled to readily perform most operations with ease. He put on aud took off his own clothing, shaved and fed himself, milked his own cows, and took part in most labors of the farm. He was a terror to evil doers, whom he could punish witb severity. He was powerfully built, and possessed of" great strength in the head and shoulders. He would butt like a ram, or seize an offending urchin with his teeth and shako him with bull-dog tenacity. He died at the age of seventy, leaving a large family, having been married three times " -rite N'eavarli (!. J.) Flection. Inasmuch as the Republican press have sought to make capital out ot the late municipal election in Newark, N.

It is therefore proper that the causes of our defeat should be made known to our friends. The election being wholly municipal, involved questions purely local. Correctly considered, it is entitled to no general importance. Differences as to caudididat9 being unfortunately persisted in throughout the canvas, re3ulted, unexpectedly, in the defeat of the party, to which the free and abundant use of money, a perfect Organization, aud the unscrupulous employment of every appliante which promised success, on the part of our opponents, largely contributed.

JOHN'S HOME FOR N T A L I D S F RKQL'LNT APPLICATIONS TO HARBOKTHE 81CK and riTetbem tbe care of a nurse, have induced tiit Sisters of Providence to open an Icflraary, which prepares tbem to give, in time of sickneas, an asylum to persons who have no regular borne, and who, consequently, suffer greatly at tho?e times, from tht want cf good care and of proper accommodations. The need of such an Institution has long since been felt; Rev. A. Bessouies, whoee duty often calls him to the sick room, seeing tbe good that an Invalid's Home would do, has, within the last two year, requested the Sisters of Providence to commence one, and it is at bis repeated sugge tioui that tbe Sisters make now an attempt, hoping to benefit all those who may find thetuel ve in the Situation above alluded to. Toe intention of tbe managers U to establish the house on principles of charity, as well as of benevolence, acd the basis upon which it is founded w.ll, when in successful operation, enable it to provide for its own snpfioit. Tne invalids that have means, and who will boons to the class of s:ck boarders, will pay the price set down per week, but this charge tili be reduced ia favor of thore whose resources are limited; in this cae, charges will be proportioned to tie mean of each tue. Let it Dot be understood that the destitute will he excluded; to tbem spially will tbe hand of mercy be extended, so far as the house will I able, to give them gratuitous admittance; it is only to be added, that, on their behalf, some assistance will be needed. Tbe fund arising from the receipts of the sick boarders, will, lt U expected, in time, support the e&tabliihmeet; but ulwtl tben, lt ! hoped tbat tbe eitisen, TtewIng it favorably and taking interest in tt, will, for the present, help towards Its maintenance, Though It begins on "small begintin'," the BMial mode at Sfcnevolent institutions, yet considerable expenne is required in the start; a bonse had to be found, sufficient lurniture purchased, and every day's living provided for. To detray tbe Urst expenditures, the Sisters bad ou band tT3, collected from St. John's congregation, on tbe occasion of a lecture given bj Rev. 1 ather Kilroy for tha b-ae2t oftbisfLflmtry, then la project; a!aoTS and IM dofitted by individual partie. making ia aU t3vO; with tbis sum the hon.e was furnished with the Independable requirements. Counting on the well known charitable disposition af the corniamlty at large, alms will be looked for; the gifts mij be in grocerie, goods, fundture, marret provisoes all will te thankfully received, and applied, in elect, to the serv'ca ol the reduced and deUitate Invalid, for whom obly tte alms are aollciud. Twetty-flve dollars worth of groceries was received aa soon aa the house waa opened; the denor Is thanked for her liberal benefaction and readv wilt to give ber aid. The building fitted op for M.
