PLATT McDONALD, :::::::: Editor. . PLYJIOITTII,- IXDI AXA : Tiiuksiuy, January 9xir, lSf2. AXOTIIEU HUMBUG. The Indiana Journal lately published an expose of what it declared to be a sa cret political organization, which had for irs object the mutual protection of its members in opposition to the payment of the war tax, tc. Although the so-called exposition carried on its face the moat conclusive evidence of falsity and humbuggery, nearly all the republican papers have copied the article. The utter impoafcibility of carrying out the objects of such a society as the Journal speaks of, should be sufficient evidence for candid minds to reject the whole thing as an arrant humbug. The Journal has been called upon for the names of those at the head of the tacitly, or any of the members, but has thus far failed to give them thustacitly ad tuiitin" its statement to be false. O The M. C. liepullican, whose editor probably hailed this exposd with joy, as it is of a piece with that which he generally publishes, promises to copy the article this week, and on it made the following comments: John G. Davis, who has gone to Richmond on some mission, and one of whose speeches Me Donald published a few months since, is said to be the High Priest of the M. P. S. Every traitor in the North is a Democrat.' To prove how false the above statement is. together with a similar one made by the Journal, it is only necessary to pub lidh the following card from Mr. Davis: "Rockville, Ind., Dec. 31, 1G61. To the EdUor " the Terrc Haute Journal: Dear Sir: I fiud going the rounds of the newspapers, m the telegraphic column under the head of 'From Fortress Monroe,' the following dispatch: 'John G. Davis, a member of the Federal Congress from the Seventh District of Indiana, had arrived at Hopkinsville on hi3 way to Richmond, but for what purpose is not stated.' I avail myself of thi method of stating to the public that I have not been outside the limits of this county at any time within the last two months, nor out of this Siatesince'my return from Va8hington in March last, except on two occasions, attending to my private affairs in Eastern Illinois. Nor have I at any time contemplated visiting Hopkinsville, Ky., Richmond, Va., or any other place South, on business of anj kind or character whatever. I therefore pronounce the above dispatch totally and maliciously false, and leave the public to judge of the moti es of him or them who would, in times like this, present, fabric ite and put in circulation such a base and wicked slander agahst an unoffending private citizen. I respectfully request you and such other papers as have published the above dispatch to publish th's card. Thanking you, and such other papers as gave a prompt denial to the statement referred to, I am yours, very respectfully. JOHN G. DAVIS. THE STATE COXVKXTIOX. Our paper is delayed a few hours, to get the proceedings of the Democratic Slate Convention at Indianapolis yesterday. Indianapolis, Jan. 8. The Indiana Democratic Slate Convention, which met this morning at Metrepolitan Hall, was nearly as largely attended aa that of 1860. Ita action is regarded as having an important political bearing upon other States. Joseph W. Chapman wtg selected as temporary chairman, and Joseph J. Bingham as Secretary. Thos. A. Hendricks was unanimously elected permanent President. IÜ9 remarks on taking the chair were sloquent and welltimed, end w.jre received throughout with manifestations of approbation. Joseph J. Bingham and R. S. Hastings wers chosen permanent Secretaries. A committee on resolutions was selected, with Simeon K. Wolfe as chairman. It was determined to adopt a platform prior to nominating a ticket. A test vote was had on a proposition to make a platform and adjourn without nominating, which was lost bj ayes 72, nays 421. The convention took a recess from noon to two o'clock P. M. At the alternoon eession, a Stale Central Committee was selected for the ensuing year. Hon. John G. Davis addressed the convention at length. A series of resolutions was reported and adopted. A motion to aijouin until the 4th of July WS lost, A motion to proceed to make jominatio.-Oi was offered, pending which the convefctioa djogjned until ß o'clock Thursday morning. ... . -

irötn Wrtliingtoii. Special to the Chicago Times. Washington, 7. A canvass of the Senate shows a majority for the Rock Island Armory bill, and it will probably pass that body this week. It appropriates 8100,000 to commence the work. Neither the Senate nor the House Finance Committee have considered a single preposition as yet for the relief of the Federal treasury. Mr. Conkling, of New York, declared in the House to-day that the next thirty days would decide the fate of the Republic. A test vote in the Senate to day shows a clear majority of that body in favor of the bill dismissing all military or naval officers from the service who shall return fugitive slaves. All the democratic Senators, and Senator Cowan, of Pennsylvania, voted against it. The Philadelphia contested election case has been decided in favor of Butler, rep., thus ousting Lehman, dem., who is the sitting memoer. The bill increasing the number of cadets at West Point to three hundred and fifty was defeated by a large vote in the Senate

to-day. Gen. Shields, now here, will ptobably be assigned the brigade recently commun ed by Gen. Sumner. Ths temper of the House on the SlidellMason question, as indicated in the debate to-day, was clearly in support of the policy of the administration. Washington, 7. Gen. McClellan, for the first time in several weeks, appeared out of doors to day, being able to ride in his carnage. He has nearly recovered his health. It 13 known that several female prisoners are watched and cared for, in the northern part of the city, by a detachment of the Sturgis Rifles, under Lieut. Sheldon. On several occasions recentlv events have transpired showing a plot to clandestinely effect their release, but the vigilance of the guard has as often frustrated it. Brigadier General Shields has reached Washington. Jadge Hearne, one of the counsel for Col. Kerrigan, emphatically contradicts the report that evidence has been elicited establishing, without doubt, the charge of having given information to the enemy. The evidence for the prosecution has not yet been received. From Cairo. Special to the Chicago Times. Cairo, 7. Two cavalry companies left Bird's Point early this morning. After they left information reached the Point, from Belmont, that Logwood's re:3 O iment of rebel cavalry had crossed from Belmont to East Prairie at 3 o'clock this morning and were five miles from Charleston. Reinforcements of infantry were immedittely dispatched from Bird's Point to support our cavalry, if attacked. Flag-Officer Footo, with the gunboats Essex, Lexington, and Tyler, made a reconnowiance down the Mississippi this morning, and overhauled the rebel steam er Mohawk near Lucas Bend. Com. Footo went within two hundred yards of the rebel batteries, but was not fired at. On returning, the Mohawk gave chase, and fired on Lucas Bend, when Commodore Footo returned and threw two shells at the Mohawk, but they both fell short. The rebels fired one gun from their land batteries. The Flag-Officer is highly satisfied with the reconnoissance, and has all the points on tie river as near as within tiro miles of Columbus. A dispatch from Capo Girardeau, to-1 day, says that a detachment of the Seventh Cavalry, '.rhile scouting, had captured a Major Williams, .of Thompson's troops. The Surveyor of this port has seized, near Metropolis, birg quantities of gold lace, morphine, and other costly drugs, intended for the rebels. The goods were from Cincinnati, and the locality where they were hidden was found b watc'iing boats crossing the river al night. Taxatlon In tho Future. Tho Chicago Times says: "Hitherto the most onerous taxes have bean for State, county, and local purposes. The taxes for Federal uses have been imperceptible, because they were indirect. This will not be so hereafter. To meet the future permanent wants of the Government, the Secretary of the Treasury estimates that at least two hundred and ten millions of dollars will be necessary, only forty millions of which will be from indirect taxes. The remaining one hundred and seventy millions must be raised by direct taxes, and it is proposed that this shall be done by a levy of one per cent, on all real and personal property and six per cent, on domestic manufactures. Inaddition.it is suggested that, for contingencies, a poll tax of one dollar on each

From the South. From late Southern papers, received via Fort Monroe, the following news is obtained: .. Mobile, -Al., Jan. 1. "A Confederate steamer. ?oin? from

Pensacola to the Navy-Yard, was fired j Girardeau recently, gave up their arms, upon yesterday from the batteries at Fort' t0(?V 01lh ofillegiar.ee, and returned Pickens." !

Fourteenth South Carolin volunteers, under command of Col. Jones. 4,The Confederate loss was 15 killed and wounded. One Yankee was taken prisoner. Their loss is not otherwise stated. "Gen. Lee has informed Jeff. Davis that he is confident that of his ability to prevent the Federals from advancing on Charleston and Savannah." The Richmond Dispatch of yesterday says that a private dispatch was received on Thursday, from Centreville, by a prominent military officer now in Richmond, which says that indications point to an attack by the Federals at an earl 7 day on Evansport, and the probability was that an attack would also be made bv them m on other points on the Potomac. The Richmond Dispatch to-day also says that, "After the Confederate batteries replied to Fort Pickens, the firing continued all day. 'No vessels were engaged on either side. No casualties occurred with us. Gen. Bragg was absent while the cannonading was going on. Gen. Anderson was in command. Bragg returned on the 21st, but the Federals did not renew the attack, and our guns were sile nt." Foktkess Monroe, Jan. 3. An edit r of the Richmond Dispatch,; we hear by a passenger by the Qsg of truce, is now in Baltimore. The flag of truce, this afternoon, brought down thirty passengers to go north, including a theatrica' company. The following telegram is io the Richmond Dispatch of yesterday: "Columbia, & C, Jan. 1. All the Yankee prisoners fiom Charleston, including Col. Corcoran, arrived here this afternoon on a special train. "They were met at tho depot by a guard acd conducted to jail. Baltimore, Jan. 4. Important new3 from the South is contained i-i lato papers at hand. A dispatch from Pensacola, dated January lj says: -ron 1 icKens upenea tiro yesterday,

but tne fire was not renewed today. Our'ct is made apphcablu to goods in bond

batteries are silent.' The Charleston Mercury has a dispatch stating that a large force of Federals had landed on the coast of Eidsto Island. It also announces the eeiznn of railroad station No. 4, on tho Charleston and Savannah Railroad. Sixteen war vessels are reported at Ship Island. A destructive fira had occurred at Richmond, burning the theatre and other valuable property. The Richmond Dispatch of Friday says: "A private dispatch has been received here, dated Mobile, yesterday, stating that Picayune Butler is a Ship Island; also that the Federals have nominal possession of Bioloxi, and it is believed that they will occupy all the towns on the coast in that region. They captured two cannon at :Ioxi. It is stated that they landed thero from 5,000 to 7,000 troops; and it is further rumored that they express a determination to push forward their forces to Jackson.' From Port Itoynt. New York, Jan, C. The Vanderbilt. from Port Royal on the morning of the 3d, arrived at two o'clock. She brings 3,691 bales of cotton. Gen. Stevens brigado advanced on the mainland on the 1st, and took possession of the rebef batteries after a short resistance. The gunboas assisted by shelling tho rebels. Gen. Stevens followed up to within six miles of Charleston. A flag of truce was sent from the rebels requesting permission to bury their dead. An hour was granted for that purpose, when they fell back on their fortifications, which are said to bo very extensive, and defended by 11,000 to 12,000 men under Gen. Pope. Their loss is unknown. Our force was 4,500, and we had eight wounded, including Major Watson, of the Eighth Michigan, mortally. Gen. Stevens now holds possession of the main land, awaits reinforcements from tho North to proceed. Point of Rock 8, Md., Jan. . Six hundred rebels attacked the Fifth Connecticut Regiment, near Hancock, yesterday, who wore protecting the railroad. After a slight ekirmish our men retired to this sido of the river to await reinforcements. Meanwhilo the rebels destroyed the railroad and telegraph line?, breaking off our communication with Cumberland.

Other remittances will soon be made. It is rumored that Governor tiamble has appointed Barton Bates Jndsro of the 11 0 Supreme Court. He is a nephew of Attorney General Bates. Judge Reber, of the Common PIea9 Court, has been appointed one of the I Judges of the Supreme Court. The military commission at Palmyra, of which Col. Groesbeck, of the Ohio Thirty seventh Regiment, is President, has thirty persons charged with bridgeburning up for trial. The decision of the court will be sent to General Halleck in a few days for approval. -4The Mysterious Female fcpj at the Capital. New York, Jan. 7. In connection with the rumor3 respecting the leaking of news from Washington to the rebels, it is said that the daughter of a high official is one of the guilty parties. It is now well understood from the movements of the rebels that they were aware of the destination of General Burnside's naval expedition. The story goes that it was talkad of in the family of the officer alluded to, and by the daughter communicated to her lover, who is with the rebels. Tho destination of the expedition has been changed in conse luence. The young lady left town recently, ar.d has not since returned. Her father, it is understood, will shortly leave for Europe for the benefit of his health. Important Action or tlir ev York Chamber ol Commerce. New York, Jan. 7. Tho Chamber of Commerce to-day adopted a resolution to propose a memorial to Congress asking for the speedy passage of effective laws, by which equal taxation will be levied on the several States; also, a judicious system of excise to sustain the public credit ana lorm a stable basis tor t 1 1 1 . 1 the ultimate liquidation of the public döbtf j A resolution was also adopted, if.er an extend vd d iscussion, tl at the Chamber remonstrates against th recant construe i 011 01 me ia:o laiui i iw, uy which ine imported prior to its passage, and goods on shipboard piior 0 the ".h of August. The .lliehian Senator Illeef. The Hon. J. M. Howard, the newlv elected Senator from Michigan, upon being nominated bv the republican legislative caucus, addressed the body, in part, as follows: "Should the two houses of the Legislation see fit to ratifv your action, elevating me to the Senate of the United States, I shall ever strive to do my duty faithfully, unflinchingly and truly. What that duty may be we cannot foresee. We cannot penetrate the futuro and see what will be the appropriate line of action to pursue We are engaged in a struggle the liks of which has never before been presented on this continent, nor hardly, indeed, in the world. We are struggling for national existence, and if tho American people still possess tor their country that courage, patriotism and abiding love for which they have ever been famed, thev will have come out triumphantly and naved the Ark of a Covenant which a good God has given them. Applause. If that good ship, the Constitution of the United States, which has weathered the storms and tempests of over eighty years, making our nation at once tho glory and the envy of the world, be destined to be destroyed, I desire that my bones may go to the bottom with her." Applause. The fact that Mr. Howard did not, in his brief speech, trot out the ' nigger, ' but did mention tho constitution of the United States, created somo feeling among the ultra republicans. Tho following correspondence from the Cincinnati Gazette will, wo' think, throw some light on the forward movement in Kentucky: Louisville Jan. 2 P. M. The Tumors about tho movements of tho army at Green lliver are innumerable, sensational and ridiculous. Let me correct, tho errors and stale tho facta, briefGen. Buell has not 'crossed Green Itiver with an army of C0.0Ü0 men.' In fact he hasn't crossed (irean River with any perceptible advance, whether of 60,000 or of GO men. Gen. Buckner ha not 'advanced from Bowling Green wilh his whole force,' and he is not now onsauinjr our forces at Ifunfordsville, wilh a view of destroying the railroad bridge. In fact a reconnoissance of eight miles across tho river, the other day, didn't show any traces of Buckner. Gen. Buell is not in hourly expectation of a battle on Green River, or if he i,

at the hotel, wrapped in his dressing gown and smoking his cigar, as if his day's work were done, and there was nothing in the world to disturb him, till he should repair to his headquarters to-morrow. And, finally, our troops at Green River, regular or volunteer, and not marching forward toward Bowling Green to meH tho enemy; or, if they are, they are in the somewhat awkward predicament of 1 it knowing the fact themselves. Seriously, there are but two ways in which a fight on the Nashville line can become possible. We must move up and attack the enemy, or the enemy must move down and attack us. As to the advance I will simply 6ay that I have ample reasons for stating that it is absolute cestainty that no general advance or aggressive movement on our part toward Bowling Green is intended for at leatt tico icceks to come. AGATE. If we should fall into war with England, how fortunate it will have turned out that Mr. Jvward did not succeed in giving away our tight of piivateering. It was in fear of iehel privateers that he was moved, when our rebellion broke out, to hasten to foreign powers and beg of them to permit the Uiii:ed States to become a party to the treaty of Paris by which privateering was abolished to which treaty the United States declined to become a party when Mr Marcy was Secretary of State. Mr. Seward could not see so short-siirhted was ho tiint few things weie more likely than embroilment with one or more of the European powers in the course of the suppression of our rebellion, in which case our oi.ly safety on the ocean would be in our piivateers. II j could see a small danger, or annoyance, or whatever elee the rebel privateers might be called, directly under his nose, but a great danger a little way in the distance was beyond the circle of his vision. It has been so with him with respect to the rebellion throughout. At first, the difficulty would blow over in sixty days; a little later, and then was nothing formidable about it; and as late as the occurrence of Bull Run, nobody was hurt. It will be something to be thank lul for if he shall not yet Jo even worse than surrender the mht of piivateei ing. Chicago Times. Cil'JI. ctt.

Gen.Soott states that the feeling in England and France wa that war is inevitable. Ho shared it himselt to the fullest extent until he reached this city. What he has sine) seen of public sentiment on this side the Atlantic, however, very materially modified this opinion. The cause of the extraordinary anger of England, Gen. Scott believes, is tho conviction on the part of the great body of the English people that tho (Inited States are resolved upon war, to punish England for her concession of belligerent right3 to the rebel States. X. Times. isscr! Xigjjer! Xijrer! Congress has tho negro phobia. It is nigger in the Senate, and nigger in the House. It is nigger in the forenoon, and nigger in the aftoruoon. It is nigger in resolutions, and nigger in bills. It is nigger in motions, and niger in speeches. It was nigger the first day, and it has been nigger every day. Nigger is in every man's eye, and nigger ii tho lobby, and n igger in the hall. It is nigger under the scat, and nigger on top of the seat. Congress smells of nigger, and the proceedings are black with uigger. A black fog of nigger exhalations rises from tho unfinished dome of the capitol ; it reaches northward and blinds the eves of would-be great men in large cities an I stands in lieu of printing ink for the small emancipation journals of tho country. The cloud of ashes that buriod Herculaneum from the world, is nothing, if compared to tho offensive exudations which abolitionism is steaming from tho lacerated skin of tho nigger. The negro phobia, we should think, ha3 nearly reached tho worst of its paroxysms. Yet the cry goes forth, even from tho fountain of national legislation, which ought to run as pure as the etream which 'flowed fast by oracles of God,' nigirer, nigger give ma niggor, or give mo a lock of his wool! What an institution nigger is! Macomb Koylc. The potato crop in Ireland anil Scotland lias been much damaged by tho rot the past eeason.
