' Lincoln's Inaugural "It is now for them the American people to cVmonstrate to the world that those who can fairly carry an election CAN ALSO SUITRESS A REBELLION." Lincoln's Message, July t. It is a struggle for maintaining in the worM that form and fuhstance of government whose LEADING ODJECT i to elevate the condition of men, TO LIFT ARTIFICIAL WEIGHTS FROM ALL SHOULDERS, to clear the path of laudable pursuit, and to atfortl ALL an unfrlttrtd start and a fair chance in the race of life, TieUIns to partial and temnontrv departures from ie.itv. Thi i the LEA D 1 NO OBJ ECT OF THE GOVERNMENT for whoe existence we contend." Ibid. Thi country with its institutions belongs to the people who inh ibit it: whenever they hall grow weary of the existing government they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it, OR TI-EIK REVOLUTIONARY RIGHT TO DISMEMBER OR OVERTHROW IT." Lincoln's Inaugural. "If they will lay down their arms, and come now to the nation for permission to separate, we shall again say YES." Indiana Journal (Rep.) " The I'nion between the North and the South is an unnntural one; it has proved a failure, and Dobodv nut an oli dotard would weep over its il nfll." Ohio State Journal (Rep.) " It U the dutT of every patriot to lend a hearty mnportto the Administration in the present struggle." Republican papers. "All we ask of th" Democrats i? to REM STILL and not furnidi their rohel friend' in the South ! vita more aid and comfort than they have been ; iloin. and WE will sjon rttle the hash far i!ie traitors." M C. Republican, June GA. "A dec'matod and indignant people will demand the immediate retirement of the prt tent C'abiuet truru the high places of power, which for one reason or another, they have shown thcin-clvvs incompetent tojill" .V. V. Tribune; July 21. Last Thursday was observed in manv portions of the loyal States, as a day of "Fasting, Humiliation, and Prayer," in , , i i i Pres: lent. The day feems to have been more strictly observed, in Chicago man. any other city we have yet had a report ! from. The Divines of that tuayerful bor- I ough improved the occasion; some with a j pure purpose; c thet a to show their learn-! in-- and tl eir ahilitv to .read more than !

Ves, I am willing to compromise, and will offer one which ouht to be eminently satisfactory to our j Southern fiiends. They insist that Mr. Lincoln transcended his prerogatives when he pupended the hnheu? corpus. I will conc"!e it, and propose as a compromise that hencfefortli each rebel bhall have the f ill benefit of the hahens and we will susfjtnii fiis corpus! ( Ilpi;;ited cheering.) Men of the ates Phalanx, vill you carry out my compromise? (hhouts of will, we will.') I should like to have it executed first on John C. Breckinridge, then on Wise, and then ay to Beauregard, fro thou and do like- HVw.' ( Cheers and laughter.) If such a 'compromiBo was carried out by the North, of course the South would retaliate and hang eveiy federal soldier, and possibly every Union man they could get hold of. The .South took about I, SOU prisoners at the Bull Bun disaster. If the christian spirit rf the Ker. T. M. Eddy had actuated them, and Iii compromise been carried our, the 1, 2 JO prisoners would hare been hung, instead of being well cared for and kindly treated. The surrender of Col. M CLLiOAN ami hU command of 2,o00, would have furnished tho rebel a ne opportunity to carry out the Itev. gtntlmm's rompromise. Such a policy, a aid a from its barbai iiy, would hare been more favorable '.o tho South, so far, than the 'orth.

the prominent Democrats in this county, I am fully convinced that if the cause of all this trouble was removed, there would be but one voice ag to the war in this lo-calitj.
The Personal Liberty Bills that still stand on the statutes of eight of the Nor thern States, are the cause, and if the Administratioa and the Governors of those States will bring their Influence and power to bear on this point, and cause these unconstitutional laws to bo erased from their statutes, and the Southern States still refuse to pay allegiance to the Federal Government, then the North would rise up as one man and speedily crush out the rebellion. But men who have ever contended and conscientiously believe tha: those Personal Liberty Bills were both unconstitutional and unjust, will not willingly fight for their maintenance and the subjugation of the South. If those Rills were done away with, thero would a Union party rise up in the South, that, aided by tho united forces of the North, would speedily bring our troubles to a close, and place the Government on a firm basis. These I believe to be, in brief, the sentiments and feelings of ninty-nine Democrats out of every one hundred, io the North. Let the cause be removed, never to be j re-enacted, and the rupture will soon be healed. Democrats are Unionists, but they are not Abolitionists, ami never can bo made so by swearing, gagging, and being tthet. UNION DEMOCRAT. Plymouth, Sept. 2 lib, 1 CGI . A loilcrn Dictionary.

Wli Furnishes Warriors? If there ig one class of Northern citizens, arrogant and conceited, that class may be found in the New England States ; and those qualities appear and have appeared ever since their Puritan ancestry gave impress to their laws, their religious polity, their social organiiation, fcc. At home those qualities are not observeable ; indeed comparison always gives the test of capacity, or quality, or fitness, and never so patent are those peculiarities as when the New England weighs anchor there and casts his lot among the hardy and practical and valiant men of the West, with whom he soon assimilates, and the Eastern peculiarity becomes subordinated and made courageous with Western peculiarities. Even the English language is 6oon spoken by them in greater purity freer of provincialism, and in greater fulness and in a few years the Western characteristics predominate so that they may be called emphatically Western men. In their obedience to law they claim to be par excellent judges of Constitutions. Individuals claim the riht of acting on lawn as they understand their constitutionality and not unfrequently the " Higher Law" is claimed as above constitutions and civil laws. In their religious polity they seem strict ; but so liberal are becoming their views on church doctrines that there appears a tendency to infidelity, and we fear that before the 20t!i century shall be ushered in, that such innovations may be made on the doctrines of the Fathers of Presbyterunisni, Methodism, and Baptism that their Fatheis would not know them. We have mentioned these things not by way of censure, but to note peculiarities and yet be the cause what it may of the failure of that people to respond promptly and liberally to the call of the President of tho U. S. for their quota of the 500,01)0 men to suppress tho present tebellion the fact is, their reluctance and laggardnees are apparent and painful to the true patriot, and subjects them to the severest censure, because, of all the people of the North, they have tho most disregarded their civil obligations they have been the most conceity to which causes, as much as to any una of tho-:e with which the North may be censurable, may bo traced her part in the National embroglio. Let us take a comparative view. The Great i States of Indiana and Illinois arc the only of al, tU Wegt wIierQ f;ue conserva "sm has prevailedwherein there has been no conflict between Federal and State laws, and where the laws of the V.

" Iudi.uia," K.tys tho Indianapolis Journal, i doing threo timea as much, in proportion to her resources, in this war against rebellion and treason, as all New England." And Illinois has over 10,000 men mi arms, while from both these States and from Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York, many men are in arms at Washington for the defence of the Capitol, while the great fight is to be in the Valley of the Mississippi. Let us give the roll of Indiana Honor now in defence of the Capitol: l'Jth Inditna Begimeut, Col. Link, of Ft. Wayne; I9lh, Col. Meredith, of Wayne Co.; 16th, Col. Hackleman. Bushville; 20th, Col. Brown; 21st, Col. McMillin; 271h, Col. Colgrove, Bandolph Co.; 1st Begimeut of Cavalry. Col. Scott Carterand in Western Virginia, 7t!i, 9th, 13th, Mth, 15th, 17, and Cipt. Bracken's and Cnpt. Stewart's cavalry. Now is this not honorable? and with the9 facts, does it not become the Atlantic States to be active and meet their responsibilitie as becometh men and patriots? They can do it with less sacrifice to them than we cf the agricultural regions ot tho West and they should bo made to do it by draft if nothing else will do it. They know that our soldiers ar producers workers of the soil ; and thev know too that we pay tax for this war according to population and not according to wealth.
They have much more wealth and hence pay really less than we do, and do less fighting. Indiana soldiers and officers are hih on the roll af fame and next to her those of Illinois. Glory be ours. We hope that President Lincoln will see that thev of Mew England respond to the call in full. This is no time for shuffling the responsibility on the sons of toil of the West and we in common with Western people
feel not a littls chagrin at the laggards of the Ea6t. Let them no longer boast of their endurance, their patriotism, or their prowess. The Chicago Tribune has furnished what will serve as a fit conclusion to this article. That paper says : "The West will demand, not for the purpose of compelling her eons to their duty, but for securing to the army of the East the services ol cowardly or unpatriotic New England, New York and Pennsylvania, that the work of drafting beat once begun. But in this heavy draft made upon us in the face of imminent danger, there is this consolation : With our brave boys in tho van of McClellan's army, there will bo no more such pitiable exhibitions as we saw at G.eat Bethel and Bull Bun. They will teach your Fire Zouaves and such like cattle tha art of war. But if for nothing else, let the East be subjected to draft for men to carry our men'd luggage and to serve as cooks in camp." Fort Wayne Times. An f iiMiiccosfiil movement ol flic The Richmond Examiner of tho 9lh inst. says: "A few days ago. Col. Albert Rust, commanding one of the regiments from Arkansas and now stationed at Monterey, proposed to execute a most daring feat, which, but for untoward circumstances, would doubtless have proved successful, and stamped him a hero. Calling for volunteers for hid enterprise, he accepted the services or eleven hundred men, and with two days rations, and stripped of all superfluous clothing and accoutrements, he look a circuitous trail, intending and expecting it to bring him out in the rear of the enemy at Cheat Mountain. His plan was, so soon as they hovo in sight of their ef.mps, to fire but one round from their guns and then to closo with the foe and use the bayonet and bowie-knife. (Jonoral Jackson was to co operate with him by menacing and attacking tho enemy in front so soon as Bust should develop his arrival in the rear by firing. Unfortunately for tho success of the entei prise, the trail had not been previously explored, and, instead of carrying Col. Bust to the enemy's camp, took him six ruile9 behind it, in a direction which rendered it inaccessible, leaving them no other resource but to execute an immediate retreat. So confidently was success counted on, that Gen. Jhcksou drovo in tho enemy's pickets, and waited nearly a half day for signal of Bust's 'arrival in the rear to commence tho attack in front. A"o E'arlj. We have heretofore called attention to the partisan character if li e appointments made by the General Government in this State. Wo have now another, and we must say a flagrant instance of party favoritism to chronicle. Mr. Francis 1). Hroadhead, a strong Douglas Democrat, and of course a devoted Union man, was appointed Paymaster in the army, and had even perfected his bonds to the satisfaction of the Government, when it was rscortained that a young person named Tillman, son of J. W. Tillman of tho Republican party, would like the place, and Hroadhead was set aside in his favor. This action needs no comment. Democrats, hereafter, mustb ceitain that uo Republican needs a position before they apply for it. We lake pleasure in adding that many Republicans aro disgusted nt the treatment of Mr. Broadhcad, and wonder how it is that tho senior Tillman is to powerful in tho direction of the affairs of the nation, and that at a lime when the people desire military offices lobe filled by the adlto - rents of both parties, tho Administration clings to the Chicago platform, and, as far as it dares, make in t lie test of qualification to office" Detroit Free Press A correspondent of tho Western Christian Advocate stttes that Indiana has brass field pieces al Lawrenceburg, Vevay, Jeffersonvillo, Madison, Now Albany, Evansville and Bockport, and one hundred and twenty-five companies of Home Guards in tho border counties supplied with arms and accoutrement. A number of army horses passed through the city yesterday on tho way to Kentucky. The Governor h.n oideicd tho formation of another regiment at Anderson.
(From the State Sentinel, Sept. 25.) Military Item. A German, belonging to Captain Jones company at Camp Morton, was killed yesterday under peculiar circumstances. He had an idea that the Sergeant of his squad was after him to hang him. He said he had no objection to being shot, but he refused to be hung, and at midnight climbed a tree sixty feet, and perching himself on a limb sat till an hour af ter sunrise, when he either throw himself to the ground, or fell to the giound and was killed instantly. The unfortunate man was most certainly laboring under mental aberation. He Lad been seeking his discharge for some time because of an imaginary complaint he supposed he had. We wore happy to see Captain Will C. Moreau, so severely injured by a fall from his horse, out upon the streets again yesterday. Captain Moreau informed U9 that his cavalry company now in Camp Fremont, was full. He says if the Governor will only place another company under his lead, making the command a squadron, he will go down into Kentucky and make the "bloodiest record during the war." These are the gallant Captain's own words, and Le assured us that his highest ambition was to meet the rebel ZollicofTer ! in tho Southern mountains. Ho had all confidence in his ability to make mince meat of him. Governor Morton left yesterday for Cincinnati to confer with Gen. Mitchell with respect to procuring arms for the border counties of Indiana. The Governor will probably return to.day. Wo learn from a gentleman who . was present at the unfortunate aflair near Glasgow, Missouri, where Major Tanner was so severely wounded, that ho is pieiced with four balls, three in the .lower part of the abdomen, and. one in the back, near the hip. Mr. Carmiuhael. of the Palmer House, was telegraphed to send his little 6on along with his mother, to see him probably for the last time. Mrs. Tanner and the little boy left on an early train day before yesterday morning, Mr. J. B. ltyan showing them the requisite attentions, ar.d providing for their aafü and speedy journey. The Cincinnati Commercial says; We deeply regret to hear of the desperate wound of Major Gordon Tanner, of th-3 2d Indiana regiment. He received his wound in an unfortunate aflair in which two detachments of Indiana troop9 fired upon each other in the night. Ho was a young man, but had for some years been n leading Democratic politician of the State. His Latent was of a high order and his patriotism: most ardent. It is hard, indeed, if he must die, a victim of the miserable blunder of a couple of squads of loyal troops filing upon each other. Hon. S. Colfax, who has just returned from a vicii to Gen. Fremont, says that the latter gives ro intimation of an intention of resigning. Col. Cm ft left Terrc Haute with five i companies ot hi:? regiment on Saturday last for Evaiiüvillü. Arm and commissary stoics were received for them jus' in time from Indianapolis. Col. Cruft was at hut accounts at the first lock on Green river, Ky. Lyman Beard, funnel ly of LaFayette, is engaged uuder Gen. Fremont, building fortifications around tho city of St. Louis. DeKalb county will have in Camp Allen, within a few days, about one hundred and forty additional men for tho 3-llh regiment. A Chicago paper statis that tho Adams' Express Company's bill against tho Govt ernuient, per Gen. Fremont, for transportation of guns, ammunition, ttc., since tho General took command at St. Iouis, will reach three hundred thousand dollars. Governor Morton has stated authoritatively that as scon as the 4 1th regiment ' shall hnvo been filled at l'oit Wayno, ho 1 will call for another to rendezvous at Go. sheii, to be raided out of the Oth and 10th Congressional Districts. A Methodist minister at Attica had at last accounts raised twentv-fivo recruits for tho preachers' regiment. Phil. Tieman, the celebrated billiard player, is to bo Chaplain. Tho Madison Courier says: "Judge Chapman, after examining the law, informed ns that he was of the opinion that the Governor of the State could not send tho active militia out of the State. The Governor commands inside tho State." Brigadier General Thomas A. Morri has been notified by tho President that a Major General's commission awaited him whenever he was ready to tako tho field.

Without a "lawyer's fee," Tn such a moment, I but ask. That you'll remember me '. ImlifFcrciicc or the Ha!. A gentleman who has recently passed through the great State of New York informs us that he saw but few evidences on his journey ; indicating that our country is struggling for its existence. There was but little military stir in that State and ho saw nothing that manifested any interest in the war until he arrived at Buffalo. At this point a regiment wag about leaving for Washington, and considerable excite ment was occasioned by its departure. Tho great anxiety of the mass of the psople seemed to bo for the accumulation of money. The moving of tho immense grain crops of the Northwest, gives occupation to thousands od the lines of the j canals and railroads throughout that State, and the anxiety there as to the fate of Washington is overshadowed by a feverish desire for speculation inquiries as to its safety are supplanted by inquiries as to the price of wheat and corn. True to her commercial character, the Empire State has lost sight of her duty as a patriotic Slate, in her desire to make money. Under the act of Congicss calling cut 500,000 troops, New York's quota is about 91,000. She has not to-day, onehalf that number in the field. Indiana's quota of near 33,000 is complete, and moat of her eoldiers are where danger is most threatening. Tho Governor of New York owes it to the other portions of the country to draft men into service, if the citizens of his State are too much ab6or bed in making money to defend the honor of their flag. We protest against this war beini? lengthened out for rears when it might be terminated in a few months. This portion of the valley of the Mississippi is crushed out as between the upper and nether millstones. Our commerce, i destroyed; our intercourse with the consumers of our manufactured products is cut off and the pecuniary interests of our people saenhced. 1 hey have submitted 1 r . tolles privaiiuus even cueeriuny. iney have flocked to tho defence of the Govern ment, under the impression that all per lions of the country would manifest an equal patriotism, the war brought to a speedy termination, and business resume its old channels. They knew tho North has the men and means to annihilato the South, and they did not anticipate that a large portion of the northern people would stay at home to make money. Tho idea that lhe citizens of Now England, Now York, and Pennsylvania would look to Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio to defend Washington, never entered their mind:. Yesterday we recorded an accident to one of our finest Western regiments on itB way to Washington. The movement of those troops was as unnatural as for water to run up hill. The order for their removal was an outrage on tho Western people. Ordering a regiment from Cairo to Washington when tho enemy were driving in our pickets al Paducah ! Who, before, ever heard of such infamous proceedings. .:...Mi.h l.i i' i... much iniaci.iuiu uiunueis: iveuiucKy boiling like a hug caldron, ami yet our troops are constantly moving Eastward ! Washington is in danger! Naw York and Philadelphia are threatened ! Wo judge, from tho tone of the papers in those cities, that tho merchants on 'change usually glance over their shoulders to see if Beauregard is not upon them, while they figure in grain and stocks. Timid children, wo odubt not, aro frightened out of their mischief by intimations 0 that Iteauiegard will catch them. It is humiliating--it is disgraceful beyond expression that the whole country should bo palpitating between hopo and fear, for the safety of their capital. If the people of the Atlantic seaboard are determined on fiddling while Borne burns, we confess we lose faith in tho salvation of the Re public. Were they to ariso in all their j strength, the rebellion would be crushed out beforo tho close of the coming .pring. IiOl them save tho country first and speculate afterwards. Let them join hands with the Northwest, and not look to this portion of tho country to carry on tho war, while they speculate on tho procoods of its summer's toil. Kvansville Journal. . . Charles W.

NUMBER 3G "WHOLE No. 88.
A Juwt Itcfjukc; An able correspondent of the Marietta (O.) Republican administers the following just rebuke to a certain class of men that exist in every community : The man who quarrels or gsts angry with opinions, honestly entertained and temperately exprftssed, because they contradict or cross his precenstived nctions, or his partisan prejudices, and attach ments, or conflict with his passions, has so far lost the balance of his mind and his self-government as not to be entitled to be heard upon grave subjects to pronounce an opinion upon them ; since it is not his deliberate and unbiassed judgment, uninfluenced by passion or excitement, which speaks, but his prejudices and passion. He surrenders his intellect to his perverted feelings. He proves thereby that he can not meet to controvert the argument or opinion whicji he questions by fact, good reasons or fair argument, and, therefore, is driven or resorts to paspion, perhaps personal vilification, as the cheap and easy resort of low minds' instead." Ioti't Trtifct. Fifty years ago Grant Thornburn was standing behmd his counter in his little grocery on Broad St. New Yo.k, when a man entered, a little the worse for liquor, and called for a fTass of something to drink, saying at the same time that h had no money, but would "pay to-morrow My rule is never to trti6t," said Mr. Thornburn. " I'll pay you, certain," exclaimed the stranger. " Thero is no use of croaking. I can't break my rule, " replied the imperturbable little Scotchman. "Well ,if you ain't willing to trust me. here's a liiblo for ti'curity,' said the man, taking from his pocket a beautiful giltedged bible. "I lake nothing for security but cash. ! sir,' replied Mr. Thornburn. The tnsrr gazed at the diminutive form of the little trader in astonishment and then tuming ou his heel, he left the store, exclaiming : Well, yer littla dried up mackr'l, if yer can't take my word, nor the word tf God, yor can go to the devil, and try him."
