From the Loudon Times, Sept. 16th
Arbitrary Arrest in The liiittd statt n. Of all countries on the face of the earth . . i . t . .i. . . i. tt:..i Me should nave liiouni mat me uimeu Stales of America, or the government j which protests to represent mem, wou.u , have pos-e-cd the greatest conlidence in the truth of what are i ailed liberal opinions, and the expediency a well as the justice of libv-ral principles. The extraordinary development of the materif.l prosperity of the United States has often b, en ascribed by European travelers and statesmen to the wonderful combination of circum9taces which have placed at t ha command of a single people, land the most fertile of a-iy on the free of the earth, labor supplied in any quantity and gratuitously by the teeming population of overcrowded Europe, and a command over the. powers of nature and an ability to dispense with and supply the want of human labor s ich as tlw advanced physical science of th3 nineteenth century alone could atlbrd. But this has not been the view of America herself. Without under estimate her physical advantages, eepcially those derived from her enormous ter ritorial extent, Anurica has insisted with no unroa-onable pride, as the highest of her attractions, upon the possession of the mildest, the most liberal and the least arbitrary and oppressive government on th. faco of the eaith. In this happy land we arc told reason and feeliug gotogethei. The Chief Magistrate, who U really the servant of the people, is not elected by a misdirected feeling of loyalty into their master; the sovereignty is really as well as nominally in the mass of citizens, and the agents whom they employ render them a strict account and conform rigorously to the laws which their sovereign Ins enactod tor their guidance. Mr. Ingersoll and Col. Vall are Lzed ami sent to prison without any legal formality whatever as guilty of treason- li i- treason to argue against the exercise by the got-erninent of powers which de end up-.n a particular construction of a written instrument. It is treason to express a b vl opinion of th? government. It ia Irea-on in a i oor man who makes his bread by ess ting sh-!i lo express opinion of the follv of .neu who are prevailjd upon to eniiet :.. rrlo themeplve the snort of in uuici i. ....... ... . . . - - .t .. :. r..,; J.-, i.i:' rr If '.m Irononn ir tnesw hiomi "''' - -' sjv tho Union h not worth pteerving at tlie pii o of tho biocnl and misery that i paid for It. H is treason lo nay that liberty i ihvad. fl, or fo call in question ar.y publie act of the government. There is n..t one tenth p trt oi'lhe Kk'rtJ of opinion or diriouiou in upuphean America that er. iats in imperial Franco. Bui this law is interpreted Dy the same wanton c.i-ri e which made it. It seems an e6!ab!:-h"u ml tiil Aaieiieac treason ia a crime whi; h ran oidy he committed by ihc pifuty that is rut by the democrats, but that the same words and actione which constitute treason in them are no t ret-on at td! iu rpubiieans. The merit of h&vicg vote- lor Mr. LjiH oln has giveu ibm by anticipation the right to commit treason with impunity. Wo cannot, tell i!k amount ofdi--satisfaction which these things produce in America. It must be measured by the degree in which pero:ul liberty is valued. We mut not look for its expression in the prees, orin the proceedings of public meetings. This establishment of arbitrary power will not be met by words, uhick only point out their speaker as a mark for the venoence of the Executive. We have alreada epecimen of the manner iu which it will be met. In the State of Illinois there has arisen a secret association called the Jolden Cirele, which puts one in mind of the societies which kept alive a spitit of freedorn in Germany under the reign of Napoleon. The State of New Jersey threatens to call out its militia to resist a threatened illegal arrest of one of its citizens. The more dsatrou the war the more arbitrary and tyianical becomes tho government. Mr. Lincoln and hie tiieiids seem really o believe that, a policy which shock" the feelings of every liberal man in England and America, which tends to make the government odi ns at home as well as unsuccessful abroad, and which has the di rect ellect of icndcting inevitable a breach between the republican and democratic parties, for the time being engaged in tho same cause, ia the sure means of restoring credit and bringir g success to his administration and xietoiy to his aims. While thousands fall by clashing swords, ten thousand fall by corset boards; yet gid dy females (thoughtless tram!) for sake of fadiion yield to pain. The Court of Divotce has been engaged iu hearing a case, brought by a mother to dissolve the marriage of her son, on the ground that ho was a lunatic at the lime of tho mnrr rge. A crusty old batehelor trusts that that plea will not bv granted as it may separate half the young couples in the country.
limtaii Tor C'odfUh! When we see a vcun? man dresned in the extreme oi fa-hioa promenading the streets, flourish a delicate walking stick, olinn the ladies, and turninu up his rjro-
bogsw an air of disdain at m-igh-bor,fl or dau hu.r wbcn we know that his father acquired the property which his fool of a son is making himself ridiculous upon, by collecting grease and ashes, we are tempted to shout in bis assinine ears, "Hurrah for Codfish!' When we eee a young woman whose highest ambition appears to be a desire to eclipse her neighbors in dress, and who makes it her constant boast that she never washed a dish or hemmed a shirt, because she regards it as a vulgtr accomplishment, We feel an inclination to whisper iu her ear, 'Hurrha for Codfish.' When we hear a lady protest that she cannot ride in an omnibus, because it was intended for common folks, we cannot help exclaiming to oureelf, 'Hurrah fo Codfish.' When we sea a lady arrayed iu the costliest fabrics, treat with contempt a schoulmate whose clothing is not of so rich a texture, especially when we reiiicnber that some of the aforosai 1 lady's relatives are inmates of the poor house, and others of the State prison, we feel a strong desire to thunder iu her ears, 'Hurrah for j Codfish.1 When we see a young man too proud to carry a bundle in ihe street, when we kuow his father is a wood-sawyer; or when we see a young Mis3 seated in the parlor, perusing a novel, w hile Ma is doing the kitchen drudgery, we say to ourself, 'Hurrah for Codfish.' Iu short, when we see people putting on hiaghty airs, because it pleased Providence to endow them with a liberal i-hare of the world's goods, or when we see the supercilious sneer of contempt upon the face of a parson to show his or her estimation of one who works for a living, we feci a strong inclination to show our cstimation of them by exclaiming in their ears, Hurrah for CVdti.-di.' We ate thankful that aristocracy in this country has nl Aaya been at a discount, and we hope il always will be, and can only pily the silly, eott, contemptible man or woman who may be fooiih enough lo imagine for a tnor...nt tha. to b a member of an executive cia h, is the supreme hight of human lebci'y, thongh money may, like ch::ritj, co?or a multitude of sins. Tbc üi'bzovui cJUu&U. Gen. liuell has been displaced. Sj far as abolition malice and detraction crm'd ei fot it, he has been dinraeed. He can much be;ter aoord to retire from command, aad i'roiii the duties and re-ponsibiliiies il imposed, than the country can a.Tord to disi enso v ith his services. He has his rec. ord. clo6in with his dismissal. These who have been mot forward to assail and msligu hbi are foolish enough lo suppose hi'j supeiecdure will digrade hi:il before the country. Il will not. It will only bring cl.arxie upon those who demanded Iiis uisjnifssl, aud upon the Coamatider-iii-Chief who was weak enough to comply with the 'pressure.' Doneleou.Shiloh, Corinth, und Perryville, cannot be blotted out by the order for biin to turn over his comiiiiind to Geu. Rosecrans. The temporary success ot abolitionism in procuring his displacement will only add to the infamy that the paily is daily piling up against itelf The reason given for hie displaeracnt is the failure to capture Bragg and his army. It is not claimed that he has not made the greatest possible exertion to accomplish this. It is not asserted that his arrangements have not been skillful and carried out as far as the endurance of his array would permit their execution. There is nt a fpecilicatiou of a want ot skill or activity or courage made against him in any of his late movements against Rragg. He is dismissed upon the vague general charge that he should have captured the rebel army and failed to do so. This is the reason assigned foi his dismissal, and senseless aud unjust as it is, infinitely more reputable than the true reason. Gen. Ruell w as ilimissi d because he was attack cd by aboli'ioi.idiir. because we have a President who cannot withstand its 'pressure In a struggle of li:o and death, wlwie every hopeand interest of the nation is on tho hazard, our most loyal and successful Generals are deposed from command at the bidding of ignoraut and malicious fanatics. This is ail there is of 13 ucll's displacement. Ittho country know the reason, and be prepared lor the decapitation of other true and tried men who are now assailed by partisan malignity. Chi i'ojo Tones. Some men envelop themslves in such an impenetrable cloak of Rilcnce, that th tongue will nil'ord us no symptoms of the temperament of the mind. Such taciturnity, indeed, is wise if they are foolish, but foo!ih if thv are wise.
AfU r the Funrrul. f
The mmher is dead. Sympathising neighbors have performed the last sad offices, and the stricken family are now kft alone to take up life's cat es again. The husband, who has lost his companion, who has stood by his side and shared his labors and cares for a quarter of a century, is, perhaps, the most to be pitied, for he never can hope again to wia such afTecliou he has lost. Evermore there will be a vacancy in the heart that uo human lore can fill. The sons now verging on manhood, have also loit what can bever be restored to them. None will ever look on their short comings with her forbearance and love. Iu their hearts thev will ever cher ish her memory with tender reverence, but they can no longer turn to her for ready sympathy as they have been accustomed to do. The daughters, too, will mi3 the qui-jt, gentle mother, who formed thegreat central attraction of home Perhaps their sonow, from the nature of woman's duties, will be keener and more lasting than the sons', whose more busy lvoa give less time for sad reflection. Their miuds are stored with the precepts she had taught them, and when they go forth to homes of their own they will remember and repeat to their children the precious words of wisdom. The loss of a mothej i a life long one to daughters. Often, often, when the trouble comes to them, they will think, 'O, if mother ore only living she would know just how 1 fed.' Sad and lonely must that homo be from which the mother has gone forever. AyAreyou aware that the command of our armies of ilia Potomac has within the last two months I do not rnern since the ballte of Antictam wxnj fought, cr the campaign in Maryland commenced, been offered at different times, to three Generals, IJurnside, Banks, snd Ilalla. k, who all in effect declined, for various reasons? fff.. Cor. Chicago Tribune. In reply to thi.;. the Iiufialo Commercial Advertiser remarks: We speak what we know wheu we eav, that when it was at nounced to the President that the rebels were menacing Maryland, he instantly eurainond Gen. Halleck and conferred with him in regad to what General hould bo placed at lbs head of an army to oppose their movements. The answer was: tMc Clellan ia the only man who can rally our disheartened forces and succesfully lead ihem against the enemy. An interview with MeClellan reulted, and ha was aeked to accept the command. He promptly re fused it, giving as a reason that he had, up to that lime, been so hampered in his plans and purposes that he could cot in justice to himself, accept a command so reopon sible, with the chance that the same sort ofthing would be continued. He was urged to lay aside t'lis objection, but nothing could move him from his purpose. Finding him inexorable, the command wa offered to Burnside. 'Gent!.' men, was hid reply, 'I am not the maa Lr the position. There:-: o:dy one General ia th: at my who should occupy it, and that is General McClellaD. I can not accept it,' General Banks was ihen tho recipient of the B:.me offer. He decli. td it, aluist in the very words used by Burnside. A second interview with General McCIeilao followed, in which he was ured in stronger terms than before to accept the command. General Halleck even go ng so far as to tell him it was Lis duty to do so. A, last MeClellan said: 'Assure me that I shall be unhampered in the command and 1 wiil take it.' The assurance was giveu and the result is known to the country. It is bnt proper that this important chapter of recent history should now be published. X. A. Ledger. The Rev. Dr. Bellows in his late sermon on slavery said. "The policy of ihe utter destruction of slavery and the slave power once avowed, the next is lo cashier every General who dares to questiou or disregard it, to dis miss every Cabinet otlicer who dispute it and to silence every press that lifts its guilty columns agaiti6t it." It is only a wholsome fear that prevents abolitionists from adopting the cotiusel of this blatant priest. The denunciation of ail who oppose it as traitors, and the bitter curses heaped upon them by unscrupulous newspapers and venomous priests of tho Bellows school, show how fir their revenge and malice would carry them if they dared lo give them rein. If Dr. Bellows is so deeply interested in ho extinction of slavery, why does he not shoulder a musket and help crush it? Why does not Beecher, who asserts that "there is more moral force in one of Sharpe's rifles than in a bundled bibles," join the army? lie lately told a recruiting o flicer that he insulted him in asking him to enlist. Why should these pernicious brawlers be exempt from draft? They are courageous in the pulpit, and the
majority of them able-bodied.
2'roiHlnrnt Iteb&l Leaders Lee, according to an army corresjKtnd ent, is believed to be the head and brair.s, as Jackson is the hands and feet of the army Lee plans: Jackson executes. In iheir marches, J.ukon leads the advan. e and Lee brings up their rear. Lee will talk to Some extent, but Jackson U always silent. Even his friends are unable to obtain from him any cine to his plans. Jackson is described as a man of peculiar temper and habits. He drcsnes in the commonest manner, wearing no bridge that can indicite his tank. lie lives entirely ia the field, sharing the half ration of Lis men, aud disd iioiog the t ffeminate
luxury of a housed roof aad a good bed. At one of his receut stopping place he was induced to occupy a dwelling house as his head quarttr-, but he became uneasy of such unwonted comfort, and was presently found again iu his old place amongst his soldiers. His whole baggage is his bible aud a few maps. And when not on the march he spends hi time reading the former, or lying on the ground studying the Utter. He is of intensely religious habits, and would stem more the type of the old Puritan soldier than any other mau in either army. Forest is a man of about fifty ; with silver hair, which was once black; a tall straight figure, weighing about one hundred and sixty pounds. Ha wears gray whiskers and a moustache, in the Cots'can style, and though a quiet, demure and seiate man, is full of dry jokes, and exceedingly good nalured. Iiu T YcwMtp'r! The Courts have settled the following points: 1. Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary, are considered as wishing to continue their subscriptions. 2. If subscribers order ihe discontinuance of their papers, the publisher may continue to sen J thera til! all that is duo is paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their papers from the office lo which they are directed, they are held responsible till thej have settled their subscription and ordered their papers discon. tir.ued. 4. If 2 u tree il bor ; move to other places, without informing the publisher, and the paper is sent to the former direction, they Cure held responsible. 5. Refui.ig to take a paper from the offi-e, or removing and leaving it uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud. C. A poelmaster neglecting to inform the publisher when a pap. r is not taken from the office, makes himself liable for the subscription price. Wk clip the following remaikable acknowledgment from the republican Statr committee to the republicans of Illinois: 'They (the rebels) will bv? satisfied with nothing lc6i than the total disruption of the Union, so long aa they can bringa regiment iuto the field." We call upon the conservative people everywhere to bear witnesi to thi shameless confession and to the here admitted fact, that another abolition prediction has come to naught. Certainly President Lincoln wülbe much Mdige l to this ab-diiioa oomm'iVe. The committee; their press, their oratra, this whole violent faction of which theyv are a part, did they not, the wit le tummer long, clamorously, persistently, insultingly, tell the Piesident. teil us, tell everybody, that if a proclamation of niaticipation were ouly issued 'the rebels would lay down their arms in sixty day?T Unfortunatelythe Pr cub nt ave way to their clamor and issued the proclamation, Behold the return the abolitionists of h is own Stafo now make him! They taeilly acknowledge tht the p reclamation is of no avail except to unite and exa-perate the South. They turn their ba.ks on their former assertions. They now declare to both President aad people that the rebels will never lay down their arms "so lohp as they can briny a regiment into the field. Preach Pisactice. Steele wrote excellently on temperence when sober. Sailust, who declaimed so eloqueitly against ihe licentiousness of the age, was himself an ha" itual debauchee. Johnson's ssay on politeness is admirable but he was himself a perfect boor. Tho gloomy verses of Voting give one the blues, but he was a brisk, lively man. The comforts of human life by B. Heron, was written in pti on uuder the most distressing circumstances. "The miseries of human life," by Bercsford, vvero on the contrary, composed in a drawing room, where (ha r.uthor was surrounded by every luxury. All the friends of Sterne knew him to be a selfish man; yet as a writer, lie excelled in pathos and charity, at or.e time Waling his wile, at another wasting his sympathies over a dead monkey, bo, Seneia wrote in praise cf poverty, on a tabla fcrmed of solid rold
