WEEKLY- SENTINEL;
MONDAY., v JUNE 15. Ast Inquiry,. Mortification, which is the natural result of ft COnscioui -degradation, prompts ft citizen of the State oi Indian to the inquiry, how it ia that the Executive, without protest and without the sign of opposition, hn relinquished to the military au thorities the prerogative conferred upon him by the constitution and the Uws for the protection of the citizen. This m elicited from the fict that neither inrasion nor insurrection is within oar borders, nor martiil law prevails, nor tvj cause for suspension of the civil authority; then may not a citizen well inquire, why should he be arrested, torn from his ho me, hij f imily and friends, and arraigned before ft military tribunal for offences ehtrgeaUe clearly uner our statutes and answerable only before the civil tribunals of the i-'tate? One.TIan Power. The Governor is attempting to carry on the State Government opon his own account, and in doin so he assumes the powers and duties which devolve npon other branches of the Government, lie is pi tying the rle of ft Dictator opOD a small scale. Ee will fail in this usurpation of power. as he should, for the sober f econd thought of the people will condemn most unequivocally ' this disregard of the Constitution and the laws. There is no apology or justification for the coarse th tt the Governor is pursuing. He claims to be following the exaxjle of Got. Wjilakd. Such is Dot the cue. Not only are the circumstances entirely different, but Governor Wiilabd did not change the channel of transacting the buiues of the State. "Whatever he "d-d was through the.Sute officers provided by the Constitution and elected by the people. Whatever public moneys Governor Willabd received he placed in the State Treasury, and all the disbursements on account of the State were audited acd paid by the officers upon whom the duty properly devolved. "Governor Mostox cannot claim that there is any necessity for assuming all the powers ot the State Government. Every appropriation required for the support of the State Government, and to meet the obligations due her creditors would have been made it the Republican members of the Legislature had permitted it to be done. It was his dut- to hare promptly reassembled the Legislature when he ascertained that it had failed to pas the necessary appropriation. II j had and has the power to do o, and failing to exercise it he will ultimately receive the condemnation of the people. He could not do a wiser act, or one which would redound more t his credit than to insist that the Legislature ha'l discharge its constitutional duties. "We protest against the exercise of one man power as fr-iught with danger to popu'.ar rights, and as establishing a precedent which may return to plazue its inventors. The Attentions Due the Soldier. We are utterly opposed to making the soldier who goes to the field upon the call of his country an object of charitv. He rot only leaves the comforts ot home, but suffers privations and runs risks of health and life which certainly entitle him to the most irenerous care of the Government. The soldier must not be regarded as a mendicant in any sense. Neither should he be compelled to rely upon individual generosity when sick or wounded. ' Whatever the Indiana soldier? need beyond the ability of the General Government to furnish, the State Government, should provide and distribute through responsible agents. When assistance comes through such a source it is not in any wise degrading to the soldier to receive it. He then feela it his due and not charity. A large appropriation would have been made by the Legislature at its last session for sanitary purpose, if it had not been for the bolting of the Republican members of the Houe. An appropriation for that purpose had been reported, but the Republican secessionists defeated it. This failore t provide for the necessities and com fort for the Indian soldiers, is an additional re.ion why the Governor should convene the Legislature in extra session. The Governor should not overlook the claims of the sons of Indian who' are enduring; the privations of the field md encountering .the risks of soldier's life. Fernando Wood's Visit to t ashingten This visit is the subject of comment by le'terwriter. The Times (falsely, probably) charges that: "He repeated his customary dodge of running to Washington immediately after one of his revolutionary or treasonable speeches, and repudiating them by denting the accuracy of the publication, and iinmedittel v damning the reporters. Ilia reputation for doing tilings, is actually established here." ' The Secretary of War a well as the President had a protracted interview with Mr. Wood. -The "Tribune" letter does not agrree with the Times in its version, for the latter declares "He reitertted the opinion expressed in his last speech at New York, and urced that the Government oopht to do the thinps th t rmke for peace bv intantly proposing; a cessation of hostilities. When ask el what assurances he had from the South that propositions looking to peace would be received favorably at Richmond, he is said to have fallen back upon the general statement that the masses are tired of the war, south as well as north, and would welcome the olive branch if their leaders would let them." The World's letter rennrks that Mr. Wood passed an hour with the President, between 10 and 12, and that he "Remarked to a friend that he learned that the miliury situation was encouraging, but that polities Looked gloomy. It is understood that his visit here was, in fact, on private business that of engg'ng a residence for the next session of Con eres, and that he called n the President of his own accord. He will not return to New York for several days." - , . From th Detroit Fres Press. " .TTr. Seward on Tree Speech. In the Unite! States Senate, on the 7th day of Ausruf, 156. Mr. Wm. II. Seward, the present Secret ry f State, delivered a upeecb in which he .-ked the following questions: Where on earth is there a free Government where the preys is shackled and speech is str ing Jell? When the Republic of France was subverted by the First Consul, what else d d he do but s'a ickle the ores and stifle speech? . When the second N id le in retorel the Empire on the ruins of the Republic of France, what else d d he d i than to shickle the press aud shackle debate? . Whea SuAko i se'zei the Government of Mexico, and co averted it into a dicUiorIip, what more had he to do th tn sbickle the preis and stifle political debate? The above q'ietiuns, propounded by Mr. Sewsnl some yeirs since are verv pertinent now. Thede-trnciion of the pre and the right to discus, with the utinoat free-lorn, 11 the measures and acts ot the Administration, is the first act t ward establishing a despotism. C orrttvouAmcm f th Kew Te-rk Kiprw.' From WsUinHnTli Visit of For nand Wood. -- WasHiMOTo, June 6. : The visit of this gentleman to Washington, so soon after his bold speech in New "i ork against the Administration, causes much conversation, s serai t ion and inquiry. The President received Mr. Wood to the eiclusion of other visitors, and when many others were disappointe i; and, it is ' mlersoI that, by special arrimementr Us vis ited the President soon after a Cabinet session. The President, it is s id, secured far Mr. Wood an "open sesame" to the Secretary of War. when hundreds, liy after dar, try to see him, without success. Mr. Wood d d not see Mr. Chase, and, I think, did sot make any effort, ia consequence ot Mr. Cliiwe not beinz in the Department.

A Remarkable Speth by Senator ,Z Xruiubull. E Declibes that the People bate the Right to CaiTicisE the Acts or thei Pi blic Si.

'- ' , "At the Republican meeting in the Court House Square on Thursday evening, sfter speeches by Hon. William Kellogg and Senator Doolittle, of Wisconsin, Hon. Lyman Trumbull, Senator for Illinois, was introduced. He was announced amid a perfect ttorm of cries for Jennison, the murderer, which had saluted the ears of previ ous speakers of the meeting whenever the crowd reared their barricade. The crowd ei dently wished to get rid of him, expecting, from the events o' the two previous days the senti ments they had heard. The speech wasasignifi cant one, and, in view of the remarkable change of policy in the Republican party, which it foreshadows, will attract universal attention.
Mr. Trumbull said: It was rather embarrassing to speak to an audi ence which insisted on hearing some one eise, but solemn convictions of duty compelled bini to speak, when under ordinary circumstances he would have remained silent. He did not come to inflame their passions, al ready too much aroused. Their country was in (langer, and they must look the peril in the face. ro adject! res he could pile up, no vile names he could apply to those who do not agree with him, calling them copperheads and traitors, would assist in arrestinz this rebellion or in asserting the supremacy of the Constitution and the laws. He did not desire to inspire them with a hurrah. but he wished to talk to their judgments and in spire them through appeals to their reasons. The times, he said, are crave! A majority of the people of our State are taking ground against the Administration and whv? In the name of Heaven, why is this? I will tell you why; I will point out to you some of our mistakes that they may be corrected in the future. 1 he reason is we have not adhered to David Crockett's motto. "Be sure vou are right an J then go ahead." A Toice " n e are always right. I have lived ong enough to know that I am not infallible, perhaps you are; I have some respect for the opinion of others. One of our mistakes is that we hare allowed our opponents to make false issues. But this is not the worst the great chinse, the change that has damaged the Administration above all others, is that we are in favor of the exercise of arbitrary power, that we are opposed to the free dom of speech and opinion, to the freedom of the press, in favor of curtailing; personal liberty, and n favor of a despotism, now we should not al ow these thines. We have been the advocate of free speech for the last forty years, and should not allow the party which during that whole time has advocated the gag to usurp our place. We are fighting for the restoration of the Union, and the preservation of the Constitution, and all the liberties it guarantees to every citizen. And it makes me feel bad when I hear some hon est friend, brimming full of patriotism, say he does not care for the Constitntion, and does not want to have it force.l into his way, or thrust in his face until the war is over. The Rebels can not thrust it in his face, for they have no rights under it. no rhhtt under it, sive the right to be tried and hung for treason. Continued ap planse In certain districts, the nulitarv law Is supreme Gen. Grant is in command of an army in the State of Mississippi, which is in revolt. Will mit one deny h;s right to make arrests, his rieht to suppress newspapers, and to level fire, like those around you to night, in order to get a range for his guns? No. And yet theje are all arbitrary powers. But the-e exercises of it are not the troublesome cases. The ereat difficulty is in those districts where riphtful civil covernmetit is in ocerhtion, where the judicial tribunals are open, and the laws respected the laws which af ford a remedy for every wrong. As a rule, we must remember tha;. the civil law is superior to the military law, and the cases are rare, very rare, where the rule can be reversed. It here resolves itself into the plain, naked question of hether the President and his Generals, by the simple clicking of a te'esraphic instrument, can cause the imprisonment of Ä, B, or C. If one General can do if. another can do it. and where is the end? who will fix the limit? Great eensa tion and murmurs 1 Do you propose to interfere with the ballot box? Cries of "No! No!" "Never, Never," from all parts of the meeting J 1 am glan to hear you sav that, and clad vou are so unanimous. Did it ever occur to you that the next election may put an entirely different face on affairs? The next election may brinz grreat and deplorable chanires. when Valla ml igrham and men of his class mar determine who are to be arrested. Cries of "No! that can never be." "Never, never," from all parts of the crowd Well, gentlemen, there is no use in closing your eyes to the facts which exist around vou on every side. I told you I came here to address mvself to vour reason and not your passions, and in view of that lignt, I ask vou, who are be:ng elected Govern ors of loyal States, who compose a majority of the Lesri.slxture of the loyal State of Illinois, and who was recently electe I Mayor of her princi pal and most loyal city, and in view of these facts hat may the futnre not hve in store! Uries of "Jennison," "Music," "We don't want to hear you," "You sent a telegram to the President." I know I am distwteml, but am 1 not truthlulr I would claim your reisons divested of pas-ion. The same chalice you hold to the lips of your adversaries to dav, to morrow may be returned to vour lins. Would you like to drink of it? Close our eyes as we may, there is no safety for us.no safety for yon an-1 I and every American citizen, now and in the future, but in an unvarying; adherence to the constitutional landmarks of our fathers. Further cries of "Jenoison,"" Music." and much dissatisfaction J You are wrong it is your greatest and gravet mistake in allowing; your adversaries to place you in theposition of being opposed to the Constitution, f Cries 'for "Jennison." and "Give us somebody else." I see that I am distaste ful, but 1 cannot help it, aud will not detain you long. Who is there among you who does not beheve in adhering strictly to ihe Constitution in these times, and extending tq every citizen of the loyal States its guarrantees? Who a inong you is prepared to say the Constitution is a fine thing for peace good enough but when war comes it must be rolled up and laid away? Or in other words for it means the same who among you re idy to substitute the will and opinion of one man, who may be another Vallandigham, in place of the Constitution as the supreme law of the land? Cries of "We don't want nv more of that," "What is that band for?" Well, hear me through, for I will not be long;, and the questions before you are of so much importance and gravity that you should listen patiently and, not onlr that, decide dispassionately. The Constitution is broad. It grants all pow era necessary, even for supnression of treason in the North. Anplause Yes, gentlemen. It is just as legral and binding upon the General in the field, and the civil olhcers of the nation, as it is npon the humblest citizen of the land. Has it come to this, that vou will deny, in the free city of Chicago, the right of a citizen to discuss the acts of the President? Uries of " e wo:it al low it," and "None but copperheads do that, and we wiil stop them " Is there a man in the aud ence who has not expressed to dav his dissatis faction with some act of the PiesidentT Cries of " 1 es. ves, we have none of us expressed anv dissatisfaction " Ah, do all of you, then, think the President's revoc arion of Gen. . B'irnside's order, suppressing the Chicago Times was right? Cries of "No, no, it was wrong." "He ouht to have enforced the order " Then you all de serve to be taken in hand by the military power and gnt beyond the lines. . xou wuiDemucn srronser wun tne law on your side. Show that Mr. Store v has counselled resistance to the draft or encouraeed desertion; these are penitentiary offene. Then arrest him ant take him before the courts.

He then read from a law of the late Congress, forbidding corresoondence with the Rebels and aflfordinz them aid and comfort, f A single voice on the stand "That's just what'Wilbur F.

David G. V awteb, Ikwim Hibbs, Secretaries. Southern Items In Iteference to the Crop) Ac. The Augusta (Ga ) Sentinel says: A gentleman writing from Cross Roads, Newton county, Ga., says the wheat crop in that section is- very, fine never better for many years. It is entirely free from rust. Corn is rather backward, but ia looking well and promises au abundant yield. Old corn is selling for three dol lars per bushel. The following is from the Richmond Whig of May 27: The Columbia South Carolinian publishes the following extract of a letter from Yorkville üis trict: "The weather is beautiful; the wheat looks splendid, and very large crops of it so-rn. Flour has already fallen to $11. Large quatiti ties of corn and bacon are being shipped to the army larger, perhaps, than in any other part of the State. Fruit crop large, except the apples. Health and quiet reign." The Eutaw (S. C.) Whig says: The wheat crop is maturing splendidly in this section. Some lew fields will be injured by the smut, but to no great extent. The rust remains confined to the blades only, and our farmers feel that they can safely get through to the maturity of the corn crop. Great quantities of potatoes have been nnd arc being planted. The corn promises more splendidly than for years past. Goo! ers are planted in great quantity, and peas without limit The great fall in the rtice of flour, the downward tendency of corn and meat, the promising crops and our recent successes over our er.emies, all conspire to cxhilerate our people and make them more energetic in their efforts. News from the wheat regions of Texas says the crops look fine, and promise an abundant yield. The Mobile Register says: The fall in the prices of provisions, which we prophesied some months ago, is being realized, and the humbug of scarcity which we then de nounced as being exploded, ami is going the way of its predecessor panics xbout arms and powder, &c. We have plenty to eat, and Heaven smiles upon us in theric-i promise oi abundant harvests. Bread is ,joitig down, and meat is going down. The flour speculator who holds on to his monop oly of the staff of life for thirty days longer, will "go under" beyond the reach of redemption, and all the friends of humanity will pronounce upon the justice of the retribution a most emphatic "amen." The Richmond Examiner of May 29t.h, has the following with regard to auction prices: Turk's Island salt G3 i85j per lb; coffee $3 13 69 per lb; copperas 75"n$l p-r lb; morphine $'23 per ounce; quinine $23 5!)i25 per ounce; saltpetre $2 15 per In; c ub soda $2 bo per lb; cream tar tar $1 per lb; epsom salu $1 Ü5 per lb; nails $3'J per keg; matches $12 per gross; blankets $19 per pair; cotton card $26 30 per pair; prints, wide and narrow. $1 75.2 5'Jperyard; !a lies' gaiters $19 50 per pair; misses' gaiters $14 per pair; me:i s English sewed shoes $14 5'J per pair; let ter paper $15 50 rer ream; green tea $7 per lb: ladies' hose $2545 per dozen. "Traitorous Wortts.v A Significant Test. In one of the towns in Connecticut, just pre viousto our State election, several persons were discussing the meas"res and candidatesof parties. 1 he Republicans, one d whom was the town clerk, were bitter against Governor Seymour, calling h:m a traitor and a inend of the South,' .asserting that he was in favor of the plan of re bellion, which was that the people of the South should govern themselves indci endently of the North. "Well," said a Democrat, "do you op pose sentiments of that kind?" "We do," replied the town clerk, "no one except a traitor will u'ter sentiments of that chmcter." "Let me read them to you," said the Democrat. "I have them here word for word; when correctly report cd, you may not feel so bitterly hostile to the words uttered; they are ns follows: "'Any people, any where, being inclined, aud having the power, have a right to raise up and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits hem better. Nor is this right confined to cases in which the people of nn existing government may chose to exercise it. Any portion of such people that can, may revolutionize and may mike their own so much of the teir'torv as they inhabit. More than this, a majority of any portion of such people may revolutionize, putting down a minority iriterming'ed with or near about them, who may oppose their movements " "It is rank treason," said one of the Republicans. "It is Tom Seymour copperheailism," said another, "and the man that uttered these de testable words ought to be confined in Fort Lafayette, and be fed on bread and water during the war. He is a traitor." ...The Democrat laughed, and quietly said: "Gentlemen, Abraham Lincoln the President of the United States uttered those words," : "It's a lie Tom Seymour said it Tom Seymour is the traitor," exclaimed the Republican. "No. gentlemen," cooly replieJ the Duocrat, "Abraham Lincoln is the author of the word you now pronounce as traitorous language. He ut-. tered them in a speech delivered in the House of Representatives, in Washington, on the 10th of January, 143, on a question of a reference of certain portions of the President's Message. The speech is reported, officially, In the Cong-essional O'obe, and you may find it on the 94th page of the appendix, among the debates of the first session of the 30th Congress " The Republicans denied it, and a bet of ten dollars was finally made that the words were not so reported in the O'obe. In one of PresiJent Lincoln's speeches. The bet was derided on the 21st inst.. in favor of the Democrat, on an inspection of th" bound volume of the Globe in the State L'brary at Hartford, containing the speech of President Lincoln and the words that we have quoted. What a commentary on the senseless parrot cry of "traitor," uittred by fanatics who are generally quite ignorant of the meaning and bearing of the epithets they so fmjuently use Hartford Times. S?The diarharge from Gen. Rosecrans' army for the month of May exhibit the following cratifying results: . Whole number discharged, one thousand and fifty nine; of these, twenty four re enlUted in ihe regular army, five hundred and seventy three were discharged from the ranks in order to be promoted, and only four hundred and seventytwo were discharged for disability. .Theesttis tics speak volumes for the Sanitary condition of his army. 5TThe Rer.

The British journals continue their comments and reflections upon IIookee's retreat, and we need scarcely add, in terms, anything but complimentary, either to Hooker or the Administration which placed him in command. The Daily Newt and the Morning Star, which usually take the Federal side, do not join in the denunciation, but they have but little to say in defense. From the London Times. Thus ends the fifth invasion of Virginia. Mut these enterprises be doubled till they reach the number of the plagues of Esypt before they s ft n the heart of the people, and induce them to have compassion not only on their adversaries, but on themelves? We can see no reason to anticipate that this lesson will have more effect upon the Government of Mr Lincoln than has been produced by so many others eqti illy disastrous, if not equally disgrareful; and we nrc strengthened in this impression when we reflect oi. the enormous power it wields, nnd the d ingers with which it would be beset if that power were broucht to an end Peace once concluded with the South, the issue would remain to be tried whether the Government of the U. S. had permmently become what it undoubtedly is now a crr.shivg military despotism or whether there was any power in the land which could exact a tardy vengeance for the violation of all law and the overthrow of all liberty by Mr. L'ticoln and his Cabinet, and whether couits of justice might not be found to entertain the just complaints of individuals (or the wroncs they have suffered under that plea of necessity which never fails the man who has the power to trample on the rights of his fellow citizens. We ilo not believe that Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet are prepared to face these questions, and we have therefore little hope of peace from their spontaneous action. Nor are we more sanguine as to any control to be exercised over the counsels of government by the commercial classes. Peace must be follwed . of course, not only by the cessation of very luerative contrac's, but by ihe collapse of the whole system of paper credit, which war has created, and war only can support. They well know that this mut come; but every day that it is deferred gives the most prudent amonz them an mporfiinit v of extricating themelves by transferring to others the unenviable position of creditors of the Government, as holders of its securities or its notes. Stranjre as it may seem, the credit of the Government is still supported by the ntion that the Union will be preserved, and neither the Government nor the cotrmeicisl classes are likely to be the first to dispel thi to them most convenient illusion. So Ions as duoes can be found to expose themselves W disease and slaughter in exchange for paper promises of payment, irregularly, and liable to mwh Itirther depreciation, the Government will probably persevere in the war with that indonrtaab!e resolution and unswerving fortitude which pererally characterize a man who is exercising these qualities exclusively at the expense of his neighbors. The London -Standard some time since sent over to Richmond a "special cirrecpondcnt." How he got into Dixie is a mystery, and how he manage! to get his first contribution over to London is a mystery also yet the editor promises a reaular contribution from him hereafter. This writer, like most Tory correspondents, appeared to be enamored of the Hebel sohliery, and is at considerable pains to magnify what he calls thei1 superiority over those of the North. Extract. The Southern army, compared with that of the North, is siiDposed in Europe to be physically in ferior. This opinion, so far as it applies to the troops met with along the route from Cnlpenper Court House to Richmond, is a mistake. Tall, straight, muscular, the Confederates are in gen eral as fine a material for war as any men in the world. These Vijzinians particularly make a maiMiifu ent snMiery. One of the most marked differences between the two armies is that be tween the men's faces. The countenances of the rank and file on each silc difier so much as to prescnt a strong contrast. The stolid expressitin which one ilwerves in faces at the military post along the Biltimore and Ohio railway compares unpleasantly with the cxpicsio:i of the frank, gviial, intelligent countenances in the ranks of the South. The distinction is, to a very great extent, one of class, but is referable partly to differences of nee The Celtic and Teutonic cast nre not so pleasant o behold as that of the Anglo-Saxon, und the Virginians, so fir only as they partake of the Hu;enot mixture, are of al most purely the same stock as that of England. The Virginians are British in their blood and in their habits Their sympathies have always leen stmnsly conservative and Euslish. In the time of Cromwell, they protected against the usiirpatiotis .f the Patliament, in their declara tion to support the Stuarts. Regular uniform the Confederate soldiery have not. A military cap with the crown protruding towards the front is the only piece of dress by which the infantry maybe generally distireuishe! from the civilian; but even this ia replaced in gome instances bv a slouched hat. A light grey is the color of the 'regulation" pantaloons; buf that garment is found to represent among the Southern soltliers as many varieties o' shade as those of Joseph's coat. Russet brown appears to l a favorite color, but one almost as much in vofrue ainon" the C-mlederite troops seems, by its blue tint, to have been selected without, it nay be presumed, the formality of consulting the authorities at Washington from the ward robe of the United States. The overcoats of the Southern army appear to have been contributed to an extent truly surprising, by the "clothing bureau of Mr. Lincoln. The stores taken from the North by the Con federates must have reached an amount almost incredible. Negroes, men and boys, in this city and through the country, on the way here from the Potomac, wear coats, pantaloons, caps, and sometimes whole suits, which they confess, with more or le-s an exposure of their " ivories," were took from the Yankees." Your Correspondent slept at the CulpepperHotel. under a new blanket marked in large characters "U". S ," and felt in the morning some misgivings as to whether or not he had incurred during his sleep some responsibility lor a certain peccadillo of "Stuart s horse. Irregular as the tints and shapes their dress are, the Coufe lerate soldiers are clad comforta bly. 1 he men are all well shod. 1 heir arms are of the very best description So great a pro portion of these has been contributed by the United States that the outcry raised in that country because John Bull has increased that contribution to even an extent comparatively small is conceived in a spirit of the veriest monopoly. The cavalry of the North is held here in con tempt. An old officer declares th.t a troop of the regular horse of the late "Union the men supplied from the North having charged under his orders a party of Iurtan in I exas, was re ceived with a sudden ' hoop," by which one third of the whole was unhorsed, The Southern' eri are very fiue horsemen. "The Black Horse," a troop now reaching about seventy, and made up of young Virginians of condition, has taken from the enmy, since the commencement of the war, sn average of seven prisoners fur each man of ids troop.
Plans and Purposes of the Abolition
ISIS. The New Hampshire Patriot re rublishes the follow ing timely extract from the Annual Mesige of ex Pt e.-ident Fierce, to Congress, Decem ber 2, lt-SG: "Perfect literty for association for political cbjects, and the widest scope of discussion, are the received and ordinary conditions of Government in our country. Our institution framed in the spirit of confidence iu the intelligence and integ rity of the people, do not forbid citizens either in dividually or associated together, to attack by writing, speech, or any other methods short, of physical force, the Constitution and the very ex istence of the Union. Under the shelter of this great liberty and protected by the laws snd us ges of he Government they assail, associa tions have been formed in some of the States, of ndividuals, who, pre tei ding to seek only to prs vent the spread of the institution of slavery into the present or future inchoate States of the Union, are really it.fljmed with a desire to chanze the domestic institutions of existing Slates. To accomplish their objects, they dedicate themselves to the odious task ot depreciating the Govern ment organization winch stands in their way, and of calumniating with indiscriminate invective. not on'r the citizens of particular States th whose laws they find fault, but all others of their fellow citizens throuchout the country, who do not participate with them in their assaults upon the Coustitution, framed and adopted bv our lUicrs ami el umiiij for the priv ileges it has secured, and the blessings it has conferred the i-teady support and grateful rever ence of their children. 1 bey seek an obiect which they well know u be a revolutionary one. Thev are peifmlv aware that the cYitige in the relative condition of the white and black races in tne envenoming states, wnicn tieyouid pro mote, is beyond their lawful authority; that to them it is a loreiun o ject; thtt it cannot be ef fected by any peaceful instrument'lity of theirs; that for them, and Ihe States of which they are citizens, the only path to its accomplishment is through burning cities and ravaged fields, and slauirhtered populations, and all there is most ter rible in foreign, complicated with civil and ser vile war; and that the first step in the attempt is the forcible disruption of a country embracing in its broad bosom nIarge decree of liberty, and an amount of individual and public prosparity, to which there is no parallel in history, and substi tuting in its place hostile Governments, driven at once and inevitably into mutual devastation and fratricidal carnage, tranMorminz the now peace ful and felicitous brotherhood into a vast per manent camp of armed men, like the rival nion archies of Europe and Asia. Well knowing that such, and such only, are the me ins and conse quences of their pi ins and -puria-tse. thev en deavor to prepare the people of the United States for civil war by doing everythinjr in their piwer to deprive the Constitution and the laws of mora authority, and to undermine the fabric of the Union by appeals to pission and sectional preju dice, by indoetrin iting its people with reciproca hatred, and by educating them to stand face to face as enemies, rather than shoulder to shoulder as friends." And, in the same message. Gen. Pierce uttere these prophetic words of warning", which, although disregarded at the time, are now impre-sed upon our minds by their full and terrible fulfillment in the fatal calamities which are now come upon us 'I confidently believe that the creat body o those who inconsiderately took this fatai step, nr sincerely attached to the Constiiuiion and the Linon. 1 hev would, upon deliberation, shrink with unaffected horror from any conscious act o lisunion, or civil war. But thev have entere into a path which leads nowhere, unless it be to civil war and disunion, and which has no other possible outlet." CROCERIES. E. B. ALVOIU). J.M.CALDWELL. H.B. A.LVOBD.
