Over Sixtt Thoi'sand of the citizens of Indiana having voluntarily taken up arms for the defense of the Government, and the preservation of the Constitution and the lib erties of the people, it is unbecoming those Who remain at home to array themselves in partisan warfare against each other, when lbs probablo cooseqnences mun be to pre vent the resources of the country from being applied to the tupport and maintenance of the army, to engender strife ami dicorri,to withhold supplies for the war-worn soldiers and recruits for the ranks thinned by battle and may terminate in the demoralization of the army, and the overthrow oi constitutional liberty.

And to tho end that Iudiana may continue to enjoy the high position with the other States which she has in tho present war hitherto occupied, and that all the energies of the Slate maybe unitedly put forth for the effectual suppression ot the rebellion, that the Constitution rosy bo respected, its authority acknowledged, and law and order once more established all over the land, it is earnestly hoped that all gord citizens will, for tho time, put aside paity, and unite for tbe country. mw Tiik Union Statu Convention.

Since the retreat of General Banks to Winchester, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New York and Ohio, have called for hew levies of troops through the medium of Executive proclamations. Nor is the "Iloosier State" behind hand. Fourteen Regiments of infantry and one battery of artillery are at, and on their way to tho National Capital. jTiTCoL John S. Williams's infantry battalion of 4 companies left Indianapolis on Monday evening for Washington, and on Tuesday morning the Meigs bait tj fully equipped left for the same destination.

Conner, Esq., editor of the Vernon Banner, with others, are raising a company of infantry for the war. 3 The Louisville Journal, in noticing the arrival there of Nicklcn's Battery, says: Indiana merits tho title of "Volunteer State," ns she has furnished more soldiers f jr the war, in proportion to her population, than any other State in the Union. Her infantry, her artillery, and her cavalry have all been thoroughly disciplined and splendidly equipped, but we have seen no army corps sinco t!ri common icmcnt of the rebellion that give promise of greater tlficioncy than Captain Nicklen's battery.

But little more of interest has transpired this week. Hie President's message. A special message from President Lincoln has just been submitted to Congress, the purport of it being to exonorate Mr. cabinet tho blame directed toward the cx-Secretary. The resolution we give as followa with the concluding remarks of Mr. Lincolu: 'JResitlit'l. Thai Simon Cameron, late Secretary of War, by investing Alex. Cum mings with large sums of money, and au 'thonty to purchase military supplies without reMiiciiou, aua wiiaoui requiring oi mm any i guarantee for the faithful performance of bis duties, when the services of competent public officers were available, and by involving the Government in a vast number of contracts with persoi.s not legitimately engaged in the business pertaining to the subject matter of such contiacts, especially in the purchase of arms for future delivery, has adopted a policy highly injmious to the public service, aud deserves the censure of tho House." Congress will see that I should be wanting equally in candor and justice if I should leave the censure expressed in this resolution to rest exclusively or chiefly on Mr. Cameron. The same sentiment is unanimously entertained by the heads of the Departments who participated in the proceedings which the Houso of Representatives has censured. It is dje to Mr. Cameron to say, that although be fully approved the proceedings, they were not moved or suggested by himself, and that not only the President, but that all the other heads of Departments were at least equally responsible with him for Whatever error, wrong or fault xas committed iu the premises. Signed - Abraham Li -cols. -j Wabhisgto.v, May 86, 1S62. The message throughout is characteristic oi the honesty, fairness and candor of Mr. Lincolu, and even bis enemies cannot but adaurethe noble straight-forward character of tbe abief asagUtrate.

Turntng Traitors Oat of Office. I For months past the plans of Gen. McClellan Lave been made known to Jeff. Davis and his minions, by traitor? and spies in the different Departments of the Gov- i

eminent at Washington Citj. As fast as they could be found out and exposed, the President and heads of Departments, Lave j dismissed them, and appointed known loyal . men in their places. These spies and tiai- j tors, did and do belong to the Breckinridge wing of the "Demociatic party," they claim themselves to be democrats they were placed in their positions by that old hoary-headed Inrborer. encourager, and promoter of treason, Government thieving and swindling, James BuchaDan. Forthas placing loyal and honest men. in the places of these unmitigated villiains, the India-a ta(e Sentinel, adduces it as sufficient evij.n,A tll. the prt.fi;dcnt is insincere in rut ting ItepubUcano in their places! nen the present Administration toon possession e tte Government, not a Republican was who sympathized with the rebellion and the traitors a cleaning out of the "Augean Stables" was commenced, and, until the war broke out, the appointments were made strictly in accordance with party usage. The President thereafter "put aside party" in his selections, and strictly applied tho Jeffersonian test: "Is he honest, capable and faithful to the Constitution." Such men as Stanton, Johnson and Holt, were selected under this rule; and all parties, with the single exception of the Breckinridge-Bright faction of tho Democracy are satisfied with this determination to sink tho partizan in the patriot to "mute for the country. Tho State Sentinel don't like to see its friends the tiaitor and their pimps iu office at Washington, tuinel out, when they were doing such good service in betrtjirg the pl.uis of Gen. MeClelUn to the enemy it was "removing Democrats from office, because they were Democrats!!" XlTlf the institution of Slavery is found to stand iu the way of the restoration of the Union, would the editor of the Jttlersonian acquiesce m its destruction? or would lie prefer that the North and Sjuth sepirato so that slavery may flourish as the corner-stone of a Southern Confederacy! f3T If the published declarations of a fondness for "thick lips, kinky hnir, and long heels" that the "negro was the equal of a white man and that he should be placed on an equality, socially and politically, with the white man," constituted a- patriot in our estimation, we should have supported Jim Elder when he ran for the legislature in '49, instead of opposing him. In the face of the declarations of fond endearments he then so lavishingly bestowed on his "colored brethren," ho was well pleased to call them, his denunciations and ridicule of their per sonal appearauce, and the anathemas he heaps on his former position, is well calculated to show up his total lack of honesty and consitsency. He is quite welcome to all he can make by classing the Palladium as ... 1 .a, 1 . a "nigger-ioving soeei, wuen h can be 'proved tnai we nave never Deen overly lond of either the Jeffertonian or its dunderhead ed editor! According to tbe opinion of Sen -ator Douglas, there can be but two parties in this war: "Patriots or 'Traitors," and he who is not for the Administration and the Constitutional measures it has inaugurated and is so faithfully and energetically carrying out, in order to speedily crush this hell-begotten rebellion, is no Patriot he is in his heart's core a Traitor, and only waits for a ftvorable oppoitunity, without the fear of hemp before his eyes, to proclaim it from the house top! Elder has opposed every step the administration has yet made to put down the rebellion- he is constantly trying to excite the people against the Administrations of the General and SUte Governments by crying out 'high taxes!' 'increase of State Debt!' 'negro equality!' and the beginning and ending of his editorials resound with the senseless term of 'abolitionists!' 'abolitionists! as applied to all who are assisting in sustaining the General Government.iu its efforts to have law and order once more prevail throoghtthe United States. The Donglas standard, surely condemns Elder, and there is no other alternative than for him to continue lyiS iQ tne traitor-bed he has taken so much pains to make up and get in. Jeff. Davis and his myrmidons in secessia. 'speak of the "Lineolu Administration." in precisely the tame way, and apply tbe term abolitionist' to it with qnite as much unc tion, as does Jim Elder of the Jeffertonian. As Jeff. Davis and Elder both voted for Breckenridge, and both labored together to destroy the Democratio party by defeating Douglas is it at all uncharitable to conclude, as they are using the same denunciations against our National Government, that they are again laboring together as brethren. We see no hope for Jim, unless he shall turn from the evil of his ways, forsake his sins, 'cease to do evil and learn to do well.' !Vo Compromise with TrailersWe wonder now what the milk and water denunciators of the Government will say about peace, after the brutal treatment of our poor sick soldiers at Winchester, bar- . tarously wounded by the rebels. What do they : think of the rebel women who, iu a spirit worthy fiends from tell, fired on our retreating troops? Shall the lovers of the Union whiningly ask for peace without first conquering it! No! we do not want peace until the traitors are subdued not by kindness but by force. Not until they shall acknowledge our Government and obey our laws. The disunionists in our midst are no better. Forbearance now has ceased to be a virtue. Let our troops remember Goyaodotte and Winchester.

Weekly Summary or Event. The telegraphic news of the present week hare been somewhat of aa exciting character. On the 25th of May, Banks Division was attacked by the rebels and driven back to Williamsport. He succeeded however in retreating without loss, save a raw bggag9 wagons. Later advices state that he now occupies both sides of the Potomac The capture of Col. Kenley at Front Royal excited the Secession element at Baltimore so that several fights took place- A

strong police force is now preserving order, j and the notoriou Secession "News Sheet", has been forced to hang out Union colors In llagerstowa a rebel newspaper was destroyed and several prominent Secessionists were badly beaten. At Winchester during the retreat of Banks Division, the sick Pcnnsylvanians were brutally treated and j the troops fired opon by women. Many of tho sick hid in tbe wheat fields, to escape rebel violence. The army of the Potomac are still before Richmond but the rebels are reported as evacuating their works. It is thought however they will make a stand at the Fair Grounds. A number of the S'.ates have responded to the call for more troops, tLe State of Indiana being one of the first to respond. Later advices state that some of the orders were countermanded. Nothing official has yet been received from General Halleck, but an attack upon Beauregard is hourly expected. On the 3 1st of March, a Confederate Steamer Mounting eight rifle guns was spiked in the China Sja by a British war vessel McClelUn is having trouble with Newspaper correspondents. By dispatches received from Oraz'b (Mexico.) May 9, we learn that the French troops had attacked a Mexican forca of 10,000, but were repulsed with a loss of 500 killed. President Juarez and his cabinet were reported in the city of Mexico. Late advices from England seem to doubt the capture of New Orleans by the Federals, though some believe il. Breadstuflfs were dull and grain declining. By a late arrival from Qucenstown, England seem disposed to thir k that the chances of the success of the Fi' !erals is certain and the journals are more liberal in their tone towards American matters. For later news, see Telegraph dispatches. Latest Telegraphic cvs. Before Corikth, May 28. Three strong reconnoitering columns advanced this morning, Gen. Thomas on the right, Buell in the center and Pope on the left, for the purpose of feeling the enemy's posiiion and unmasking his batteries. The enemy contested the ground hotly at each point, and was driven back with considerable loss. Pope's column encountered the strongest opposition, where we lost 25 killed and wounded. The enemy left thirty dead on the Seld. We captured some live or six officers, and several privates. Although iho enemy disputed the passage of the bridge at the creek sharply, we held possession on the southern side, in some instances our advanced line of skirmishers being within gunshot of the enemy's intrenchrnents. Indeed, so near are we, the prominent officers believe the enemy will attack us at daylight to-morrow. The whole affair was considered a decided success in a military point of view, we having gained very important positions right in the teeth of the enemy. The officer killed at tho battle of Farmington, on the 9th inst., supposed to be Gen. Price, was Col. Iograham, of Van Dora's staff. The prisoners report the arrival of Lovell's army at Corinth last night. LATER. IIalleck's Headquarters, May 29. Contrary to expectations, the rebels did not open on ns this morning; but General Pope opened fire on the rebel battery, which the rebels returned with 12 pounders. After an hour's shelling the rebels pulled down the flag over the battery, hauled their guns back, and our forces at this hour (noon) occupy the posit ion. Still Later. May 30, 4 P. M. Rumor is prevailing that Corinth is evacuated. "Tho old Democratic party forms a powerful nucleus around which all patriotic men should rally." Jeffertonian. C& If that is so, why did Elder, in company with the traitor Bright, seek to destroy the "old Democratic party," by assisting to defeat Douglas at the last Presidential election in this State? Why was it, if the editor of the JefiWsonian really believed this "old Democratic party" was so potent for the salvation of the country, that he sought to suppress the efforts of the friends cf Douglas in this County, when they petitioned Bright, at Centrevilie. to cease his efforts to distract this same "Democratic party," and go home, by quietly putting the petition into his own breeches pocket, and used his influence with his "man Friday" the sham owner of the Jeff to say nothing about it? The fact is, principle (unless it had before it) has never governed Jim Elder, in all his political peregrinationsself-interest has been his governor all the the time he was a Whig when he first came to this city. Thinking a Democratic paper would pay, and there being only one in this Congressional District, he managed to get hold of the Jeff and tnrned to be a Democrat, claiming that he was one "dyed in the wool." After continuing in the old beaten track of that party for some time, his ambuioa prompted him to thick that the law-making power needed the ability that he supposed was laying dormant within him; and to reach that goal, he professed to be a rampant "abolitionist," and out Garrisoned Garrison in his expressions of l.xc for his colored brethren not only for those iu bondage, but those in the State of Indiana who were ground to the earth by the "odious black taws" thereof pledging himself, in order to get the Free-Soil vote, t.ot only to "eradicate Slire-ry" where the Government Lad sole control, in the District of Columbia and in the Territories; but to utterly destroy every vestige of the "accursed institution" In the States where it existed! He sue ceeded, by the aid of the "Free Soil" vote,

in getting to be a member of the Legisla-, tare his personal interest was gratified (if his opinions now in regard to the "abolitionists' are to be credited.) at the expense of 4 principle! Again, self interest came in con- . flict with prieciple during the last Presidential canvas. Elder held the Post Office and published the Jcfierscnian the South seceded from the Charleston Convention, and it adjourned to Baltimore, when Douilas received the nomination. The secede rs also met at Baltimore and nominated the traitor

Breckenrige. Buchanan, for the purpose of pleasing the section to which he owed his position, determined to bring his official patronage to bear in favor of Breckicridge,4 and Elder was duly notified that he must "obey or resign." But a thousand dollars was a sum cf money quite too large to give Up, without a struggle. He found that his subscribers would kick the bottom out of the Jeff ersocian if he didn't go for Douglas, and that Old Buck would kick the bottom out of the Post Office if be did it was a bottomless pit in both directions, ao save both, ho made a sham sale of the Jeff, to ' Culley, and held on to the Post Office he made his calculations to be passive, and to try the say-nothing and do-nothing plan of salvation; but he had a more vigilant overseer than he imagined. Jess. Bright, ' made him work and drudge for Breckinridge made him pay the tax on the privilege of holding the Post Office, in order to break down the "old Democratic party" in Indi-; ana made him attend his meetings, and act as president thereof compelled him to go round with him and use bis influence to assist ia i's destruction: His "bread and butter" depended on obeying, and no slave J ou the plantations of the South, was ever more subservient to the wishes of his master than Jim Elder wai to Jess. Bright. He again sacrificed principle to his self interest. What a powerful and an all-absorbing lore he and the supporters of Breckinridge must now have, for tho "old Democratic party" that they aided to destroy ! ! Startling Fraud. The recent discovery of the swindling of the State of Indiana out of an immense sum of money, by D. C. Stover, clerk of the Hon. John Cravens, State Agent in New York city, has caused much excitement in political circles. Stover ia said to have fraudulently issued over $1,500,000 six per cent bonds, in which business he was aided by certain Wall street Brokers. With the proceeds the parties purchased the Bank of Beverly, N. J-, haviDg built a costly banking house in which they financeered in the most approved modern style of banking. The fraud has, however, been sometime discovered and by the judicious action of Gov. Morton over $700,000 has been recovered. The action of the Governor, so far as ap- j pears from tho facts before us, appears to have been wisely calculated to serve tho interests of the State. It is to bo hoped that the case is not quite so bad as stated, and that the amount of fraudulent paper still outstanding is not so large as now reported. The most severe penalties however should be inflicted upon the perpetrators of this fraud, and even though an increased amount be recovered, the effect will be to weaken banks based upon Stato securities until it is ascertained whether the bonds they hold are spurious or genuine. 3T""Wade advocates the suspension of tne IsonttUution that the views of the radical abolitionists may be carried out in the prosecution of the war that is, that all the 6lavi a may be set free." Jeffersonian. We would like to have this Elder scion of disunion principles point out where Mr. Wade advocates the suspension of the Constitution. He cannot find it if he tries. His perverted taste is too well known by the public for them to credit such a statement. National Armory in the We si. To the Editors cf the Xational Intelligencer. The attention of Congress has been called to the necesity of erecting an armory somewhere in the West, and in view of the consummation of such a measure much interest is very naturally felt in reference to its location. The point which seems to me to be very prominent in all the requisites which are indispensable in such a location I have not up to this time heard named that is, Indianapolis. Situated on White river, in a fine agricultural region, it certainly should not be overlooked. Among its claims are 1st Abundant water power, taken from the Central Canal, always ample and not endangered by freshets, and immediately adjoining the military reservation of s.me thirty acres of ground belonging to the State upon which the necessary buildings can be erected: 2d. It has the most numerous railroad connections with the Ohio river and the lakes of any city iu the West, and in the geographical centre of the most thickly settled region of the West. 3d. Coal in any quantity can be delivered there at two dollars per ton, and other materials at extreme low rates. 4ih. It is free from the dangers of mob violence to which lirge cities would be liable, and where aims and ammunition would be more unsafe. 5th. The abundance and low price of. all the necessaries, of life, its fine climate with its thrift and enterprise, would .ni ways' insure plenty of mechanics and fair wa?csJ And, lastly, it ia the capital of tho glorious young State whose sous and daughters in Ibis rebellion, from tbe Governor to the, day-laborer, and from the matron to the: school girl, have, on the battle field and in the councils cf the ration, by the sick ' couch and the campfire, known no such word as "fail." The men who use guns so i nobly are surely entitled to some share in their manufacture and safe keepme. "That's so." . W.T.DENNIS. Halvxt, the musician, was most respectfall V buried in Paris.

From tb Cnlon Count BeraM. Representative to Congress. Mr. EJitor: In vour last issue, some per

son, sailing under the colors of a "'Lover of the Uni.n," mde ao attempt to forestall Eublio opinion, ia a matter which it was oped would be allowed to remain at rest, until our national difficulties should assume a more settled form, and the people could look about them, to see who is the man for the occasion, and who is best calculated to restore an honorable peace, and quiet the troubled neres of our national existence But the writer of that article, true to the instinctive element which characterizes the friends of Mr. Julian, attempts to drag up this Congressional question, and force the peorde to determine whom they will support before they arc able to determine what the eroergenev will require. To bo plain about the matt r, the people; have already had quite enough of this kind of wire-working, on the part of tho friends of Mr. Julian, and Lave became heartily tired and digus-t.-d nuh it. Ir. Julian has done nothing Kin t, to. k h t in C.ni-rsa. bnteW tionecr for a return to his scat first. by( causing to be piloted a large number of copies of that -tame old speech," oa th 1 fMen.Al r.e.MO nueition. and sendiner them to o i o every man, woman and child tnrougDoui tho District. Next, ly causing a large picture of himself to be printed in a phrenological journal accompanied by a biography (written by himself no doubt.) declaring the aforesaid Julian "the Lving won der tJ the age." These, too, were circula ted in same manner as the speech, about tho first of April, (no allusion to the time of circulating Jack bills). The next nt-1 tempt of this kind, was by the friends of Mr. Julian, calling for the nomination of a i Congressman at the April election, before tho people had even thought of the question. Now, if Mr. Julian and his friends are determined that he shall be tho next candidate f-r Congress from the "burot District," without awaiting an expression of the people. Why don't they at ooco dali,ro 11 : 11 i- uummuu mr abuirin" ucinwi i. :. r : .1 men, who havo any of that rare article railed modes'y, ti await a movement of the people in such matters, and not attempt to drag them per force, into measures which they most detire to avoid. "Why neel man forestall hie date of ffrie'. And ruu to uieet wbat b would moat avoid?' If the people longer desire the services of Mr. Julian as their representative in Congress, they will rot be slow to make their wishes known to him in a becoming manner, and if they desire a conservative man, who has more ideas than one, and who can dispel from his vision the dark cloud of niggerology, and feo the true demands of our irnvprnmAnl ttiav u i 1 1 nartitn. f.ut thn!. votes for such an one.' even at the risk of bi-ing called "sympathizers, traitors, or ae - cessionists, as your correspondent seems to denominate all who will not rally under the Julian standard.

The letter mode having been adopted by the perpetual-motion -Central Committee of Wayne, County, to force the people, if possible, into obeying the behests of that Committee relative to bringing on the Nominating Election for Congress, in April last, Georgo Washington Julian, was determined to adopt it on n more extensive scale, by writing to eaoh of his former "dear friends," urging them by all the memories of the past and the salary of six thousand dollars in the future, to come to his rescue!
