The first third having obtained tower of the national government under the forms of the Constitution, insist on their iaterpretation, of that instrument and are proceeding to take pessession of the same. The last third having control or the governments, are proceeding wder their intcrptetation of the national compact to withdraw front itTbe other t.iird say ar.d believe that Congress has no power uader tbe Constitution to create or abolish slaverv in the Territories, ir hure the rifht constitutionally to secede, but belie' ' be rich of revolution for redress of wronra when ii." peaccble mensures fail. m,nnrM f51 Now this, just as near as we can state it, is the present actual con lition of opinions in thc United States. In this fearful strife, have wo discovered all at once that we have provided no arbitratment in our government before, which these questions can be settled ? If not, it was an over sight in our fathers for which we can hardly frame an excuse. But two thirds of the above disput i nts Bay they did, and that thc Supreme Court was established for that and other purposes, and that it has made a decision covering the first case, and by which they are willing to abide. But the firsi-ihiid denied his authority, and appealed, as ihey t?U us, to the people and reversed that decision ai the l;allotbox. The other ftro thirds deny that there Is any legal or constitutional authority to thua reverse a judicial decision. In this conflict ofopinior,. w e,re likely to b led into an arl':t-tment of blcod. Kow, if there is an apppeal te arms a nd military eoercion is to b the law, w ho are to be coerced ? The first third or the last third ? These two would of course, decide that it mnst be by their opinions, aud not themselves, but the second third will have a voice in the matter, and being aa conscien tious as others, can only arm themselves to keep the peace, s nd seek a settlement more in accori dance with our republican sjstem of government and the id ea on which it is bastd, viz : that man is capable of pelf-government. W ehae thus stated the case as fairly and clearly as we are capable of, and cleared It of ita dross and aublrefuges, and it will not be amiss to. study it well, and without prejudice frr feeling.

Indian a roLia FB. 16. iSfil Ed. Dxmocsat: Old Abe hat corae and goneand Incoherent as it wag, was designed to foreshadow the policy of his ftdmisutration and that policy is to be coercion. If there bad been any hope for o.urani'.appy country in the administration ol Mr. Lincoln , that hope has fled. We nr-r look to the Teac Conference as a last reiort; if they fail in agreeing on some peaceable adjustment, and Mr. Lincoln persists in his purpose of coercing; receding States into the Union, then, indeed, it is only left for the future historian to record the downfall and utter ruin of the noblest government, the light of heaven ever shore upon. Your correspondent was aboard the train with Mr. L. from Lafayette to Indianapolis, and saw Mminhisgenialinood. He ia emphatically a great joker. Lounging lazily in hi a seat, with his long legs elevated against the window at aa angle of forty five degrees after the pure American style, he related story and anecdote without nuirbor, and, after each, would laugh louder, and clap his hands with more fervor, than any of his audienco He seemsd more like a joungboy out on a holiday excursion, than the President Elect, on his way to Washingtoa to be ina ugurated Chief Magistrate of a broken, and dismembered Confederacy. Such levity under auch circumstances, was, to aay the least, in very bad taste. He took no notice apparently, of the various diseusiions among several members of his suite, con cerning "disunion," "coercion," and "the state of South, Washiagton City, as he did'nt wish to have anything to do with their d d territory' aud, besides, we wanted the Capitol of tbe Northern Confederacy somewhere out west." His proposal although accompanied by a very naughty word, was certainly a very generous, and I don't know, but tentiblt one; for certainly this Jforthern Confederacy would not wish to have her Capitol, and exercise all the powers of her government, on a foreign soil. Mr. Lincoln's receptioa at the Bates House in tho evening was not notabl for anything except forjome very foolish remarks, Buch a. "he iutended to kiss all the little cir'.J. and would like to kiss the bigger women if they would'nt think him imprudent" "this shaking hands was harder than Py-iittmg rails," ic. tc. The next morning at 1 1 , he left for Cincinnati. Of the result of the Hcffren Moody duel I suppose you are fully apprised. A resolution has been introduced into the House to expel those two gantlemen; after considerable discussion the whole matter was referred to a select committee of fire to investigate, and report the facts in thi case. This is probably the end of ths whole thitg, as the the committee will notlikely report before the closa of the cessioa. A bill to provide for the formation of new counties, and'to e'tablieh county toundari, and repealing all laws inconsistent therewith, created considerable interest ia tbe House, and, altera somewhat lengthy debate, passed by a large ma jority. The bill to establish five additional branches of the Bank of the Stte, came up on a motion to oncur in the r eport of the committee, aDd was lost. It will probably come up again, but will most likely be defeated. The Deaf and Dumb and Blind Asvlums, have e- ch given, during tbe present week, an exhibition to the members of tho Legislature of the proficiency of tbe pupils of these Institutions. The ex.reises were highly interesting, and did both Teachers and pupils great credit. I oantiot cloe without alluding to the able, und patriotic address of the Hon. Robert Dale Owen, of Posey Co. In the Hall of Reprsentatives on Wedncs day night last, on "The Perils end Exigencies of our country."

According to a table published by the Chicago TriJune not long since, Jfew Mexico, including what is called Arizona, contains 256,303 square miles, and the Indian Territory 67,020 square miles, total 323,329 square miles, being a little over one fsurth of the Tribune's calculation ! But thia is not even correct; for the line of. 16 30; would cut off quite a strip of New Mexico, amounting to about 3U.O0O square miles beings still farther reduction, and bringing it down to 273, 329 square miles, only ! Now how many States the size of New York can be carved out of this ; we leave any school boy to answer.

Th President elect has made his visit to the Capito? of Ohio, and has left on his meandering way to Washington. He has been eeen by the people here assembled, and by their Representatives, and tliey have heard him apeak. Curiosity has been gratißcd, and the politiciana have had a chance to button hole Mr. LincoM, affd press their claims to office and their plans et public policy. There can be but one opinjonwe think, among all unprejudiced men who saw and heard Mr. Lincoln, and that ia he Is intellectually a weak man , and fearfully deficient in those quallifications necessary at all times, and now po much te be desired, in the chief Executive officer of tho nation.

Dr. Roback's Remedies. We publish in another column of to-day's paper, an article copied from the Cincinnati Ttmf. dpscriptive of Dr. Roback's extend re medical establishment ia that city. By the way, Dr. Roback's Remedies have obtained a great and deserved popularity with all classes.

The reason for this, is, that thry have Etood the test of praotie 1 experience, we know this, not only frvm the mouths of others, but we have used them in our owa family with the very best results. Forall disease of the blood, general debilitv, whether proceeding frem sickness or from natural weaknens, indigestion, and all kindred ailments, ' we recommend the Scandinavian Remedies aa the tery btt medicines extant.
